Chapter 202: Expulsion from the Clan
Looking at Concubine Li, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, but still smiling to herself, the inexplicable pain in Hu Hai's heart hit her one after another.
"Ai Concubine, get well quickly, so that I can give birth to an heir. Lots of offspring! Hu Hai kissed Concubine Li's forehead and squeezed her little hand heavily to comfort her.
has the experience of being held by Hu Hai in public, but he has never been kissed by Hu Hai in public. What's more, with Yu Ji on the side, a flush suddenly appeared on Concubine Li's pretty face.
"Well, Your Majesty, go quickly! Win is still waiting. Feeling Hu Hai's distress, Concubine Li gently smoothed out the clothes on Hu Hai's shoulders that had just been wrinkled because she was soaked with her own tears, and nodded.
"Well, I'm gone. Bian Aiqing and others will come to drug Concubine Ai. Don't worry, concubine. Hu Hai said, carefully put Concubine Li on the brocade couch and stood up and came to Yu Ji, who was crying and her eyes were red, kissed her on the forehead, and then strode away.
Previously, Yu Ji was only holding hands with Hu Hai at most, but at this moment, it was the first time she had such intimate contact with Hu Hai. Suddenly a little stunned.
"Sister Yu Ji?" Concubine Li's soft cry suddenly brought the distracted Yu Ji back to her senses.
"Huh? Sister? What's uncomfortable? Hearing Concubine Li's words, Yu Ji, who came back to her senses, hurriedly ran to Concubine Li's bed and said urgently. If it weren't for the unsubsided flush on her face, I'm afraid that even Concubine Li would have thought that she had forgotten what had just happened.
However, at this moment, Concubine Li no longer wants to tease Yu Ji.
"Sister Yu Ji, Your Majesty's heir is gone. Sister is really useless. Concubine Li said as big tears poured out silently. Obviously, what she had just said was just to comfort Hu Hai.
"Sister, don't be sad. Take good care of your body. There will be more in the future. After all, Yu Ji is an untrained girl, so she can only comfort herself.
When Concubine Li heard Yu Ji's words, she nodded and said, "Well, my sister knows." But Sister Yu Ji, Your Majesty has not been served for a month, why don't you go and serve Your Majesty tonight? ”
"Huh!?" Yu Ji was suddenly exclaimed by Concubine Li's words, and Xia Fei's cheeks flew away. "Sister......
"Sister, listen to my sister. You also know that after the post-book ceremony, His Majesty will be on the royal expedition. Your Majesty cherishes all the people in the world, is a great husband who stands up to the heavens and the earth, Your Majesty is personally conscripted, the road is far away, I am afraid that there is no March or May will not be able to return to Xianyang. If my sister has His Majesty's heirs in these days, His Majesty's Great Qin will be truly as stable as Mount Tai, sister. Although His Majesty has not married his sister yet, he thinks that his sister also loves His Majesty, doesn't she? ”
Concubine Li is not stupid herself, but she has never wanted to be too smart.
"Sister......
Yu Ji never thought that Concubine Li would turn the topic to herself, and take the initiative to dedicate herself to the emperor with herself, a yellow flower girl who had never done anything, and she was suddenly embarrassed.
……
"What?" Hu Hai hurriedly walked out of the dormitory, stopped Ying Yi, who was about to salute, and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty. Several counties Mengkuo red letter! ”
As he spoke, he bowed down and presented a red bamboo tube sealed with fire paint in both hands.
Meng Kuo has been in the two counties of Bashu for several months, and every ten days and a half he will inevitably report all kinds of things in the two counties of Bashu to Xianyang. However, this is the first time that the red letter has been issued.
"Follow me to the study!" Hu Hai was slightly stunned, and then said.
When he arrived at the emperor's study, Hu Hai stood in front of the huge map of Daqin, staring at the direction of the two counties of Bashu and said in a deep voice: "Read it!" ”
"Whoa!" Win a bow and salute, and then quickly open the bamboo tube.
Mong Kuo's red letter was the first time Hu Hai received real information about South Vietnam.
Shu County is an important town bordering Xiang County. After the arrival of the two counties in Mengkuo, the soldiers of all the counties had been collected and stationed in Chengdu County (near Chengdu, Sichuan in later generations) and Yandao County (Yingjing County in later generations) bordering Tongxiang County in Shu County. Located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin, in the middle of Ya'an City), Jiangzhou (later Yucheng, Sichuan), and Ba County bordering Qianzhong County, Tongxian County (the center of Fuling District, Yucheng City), there are nearly 20,000 guards stationed near Chengdu Cang.
Three days ago, Meng Kuo, who was in Yandao, caught at least 100 Qin soldiers who had fled from Xiang County to Shu County. From the mouths of these Qin soldiers, Meng Kuo learned a piece of news that scared him almost to faint.
The three counties of Nanyue have now respected the son-in-law of the late son Fusu as the emperor, and they are about to raise troops to the north to crusade against the current Emperor Hu Hai of Great Qin. The chief general of the three counties of South Vietnam, Ren Huan, died of illness, and the general of the South China Sea, Zhao Tuo, was seriously ill and dying, and now the three counties of South Vietnam are all under the control of Ziying and Zhao Tuo's younger brother Zhao Guang and others.
At this moment, the three counties of Nanyue are wantonly arresting the old Qin people who are interested in Great Qin and the generals at all levels of the Meng clan. However, in contrast to these, what surprised Meng Kuo even more was that a large part of the generals of the Mengshi clan chose to be loyal to Ziying. And Ziying also issued an edict to officially canonize Meng Tian as the general and lieutenant and Meng Yi as the left prime minister.
If this news reached the ears of the Second Emperor who was still in Xianyang, what a huge disaster would it be for the Mengshi clan? Meng Kuo didn't know. But he couldn't help but report it. After thinking about it, Meng Kuo sent a message to all parts of the two counties of Bashu to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the sudden introduction of troops from the Nanyue side to the north, and at the same time, Feixin reported everything he knew to Xianyang.
The fate of the Montessori clan is no longer something he can control. The relationship between the Montessori clan and Fusu is well known to the world.
After reading the letter, Hu Hai didn't say anything, and Yingyi, who read the letter, was scared and crawled to the ground first.
What a shocking thing this is. Ziying ignored the edict of the First Emperor and raised an army against Qin, isn't this to make the relatives and enemies happy? He is trying to make Daqin's fellow chamber and cause trouble to Xiao Wall.
Compared with the horror of Win Yi, Hu Hai breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this letter.
The expected thing happened after all. What should have come has always come.
He had already thought of Ziying appearing in South Vietnam, but things were still different from what he thought, it was not that Zhao Tuo and Ren Huan hooked up with Ziying, but that Zhao Guang, the younger brother of Zhao Tuo who had never heard of him, hooked up with Ziying.
It seems that the death of the general Ren Huan is not so simple. It's just that whether Zhao Tuo's serious illness is true or fake, Hu Hai is not sure. After all, Zhao Tuo has been operating in South Vietnam for more than ten years, could he be killed by his brother Zhao Guang so easily? And then Zhao Guang can easily control hundreds of thousands of troops in the entire South Vietnam? Could it be that Zhao Guang is so young and has so much energy, not only can he get the support of the Baiyue barbarians, but also collude with the generals who command the army?
Hu Hai doesn't think that things are really as simple as Meng Kuo said.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that there were still people in the Mengshi clan who were optimistic about Ziying. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of the Meng Wen who was confined to home by Meng Tian.
It seems that the Montessori clan is not monolithic.
"Get up. This is Ziying and Zhao Guang's business, what are you afraid of? Hu Hai stared at the map and said, "However, how did I do for you to send people into South Vietnam?" ”
Ying Yi, who had just gotten up, heard Hu Hai's words, and hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, Long Wei has more than 200 people, and they have already set off more than ten days ago, all the way from Shu County to Xiang County, all the way from Ba County to Qianzhong County to Guilin County, and finally converge in Nanhai County. ”
"Hmm!" Hu Hai nodded and did not continue to ask. It's only been more than ten days, and I think I must not have arrived in the South China Sea.
Now that Ziying has been proclaimed emperor, he thinks that he will send troops soon, and after the matter is clear, Hu Hai's heart is down-to-earth.
"Go and invite the Taishi, Taibao, the two prime ministers and the old Zongzheng to the study." Hu Hai turned around and said.
"Whoa!"
……
Half an hour later, the emperor's study.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's discuss it casually!" Hu Hai sat on the emperor's chair, and waited until Ying Yi read Meng Kuo's letter to Meng Tian, Wei Yi and others, and then his eyes swept over several important ministers, and said lightly.
The shock of this letter to Meng Tian, Ying Teng and others can be imagined. The only thing that doesn't surprise me is to think about it.
Meng Tian shouldn't have been so surprised, he knew that the emperor sent Zhang Han, who was Lang Zhongling, to Bashu in the name of derogatory in order to guard against South Vietnam. At that time, to be honest, Meng Tian was not too worried about South Vietnam, after all, there were many generals at all levels of the Mengshi clan in the hundreds of thousands of troops in South Vietnam, even if Zhao Tuo wanted to rebel, it would be necessary to see if the Montessori clan agreed.
It was only to his surprise that so many generals of the Mongol clan in South Vietnam had chosen to pledge allegiance to Ziying rather than raise troops to extinguish the rebellion. That's what shocked and upset him.
Hearing the emperor's words, all the important ministers in the study looked at each other.
"The old minister is not strict, and the Meng clan is abusive, please punish Your Majesty!" Meng Tian got up and knelt down on one knee and said with a look of shame.
"Hehe, what's the matter with this caring secretary? Good birds fold trees and perch, those Mengshi people only represent them, not your Mengclan. Get up. Hu Hai smiled faintly and raised his hand to help.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Meng Tian said gratefully.
"Your Majesty, the old minister will summon all the clan elders and expel the unworthy grandson and grandson from the genealogy of my Ying clan. From then on, my Win clan no longer has a child and baby clan! Shame on my Win clan! With murderous aura, and tired eyes, Ying Teng staggered up and bowed to Hu Hai.
Winton was hurt. Originally, Ziying was Fusu's sister-in-law, even after Hu Hai succeeded to the throne, Yingteng took great care of Ziying for many reasons, and he was completely comparable to the prince when he was supplied, but he didn't expect Ziying to do such a rebellious thing.
"Don't mind! There are some things that I haven't figured out yet, so I don't have to. Hu Hai comforted Yingteng.
"Your Majesty. Even if Ziying was coerced by that Zhao Guang, he couldn't rebel against Qin from thieves like this! If you don't expel these rebels from my Win clan, the old minister will have no shame to face the ancestors of my Win clan! Your Majesty's permission! ”
Win Teng sobbed with reason.
