Chapter 096: The First Emperor Summons

The next morning, Li Ge and the others went to the post station, and after meeting Li Quan, they set off directly to return to Xianyang.

After returning to Xianyang, it happened to be Chinese New Year's Eve, and Li Ge spent his first year in the mythical world.

After arranging Cui Wenzi, Li Ge began to retreat, ingesting the space-time energy contained in the tiger-shaped pendant to cultivate the secret method of cutting the marrow.

As the saying goes, there are no years in practice, and nearly two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

"The pinnacle of the Dacheng stage!"

After nearly two months of retreat, the secret method of cutting the marrow has progressed rapidly, and finally reached the peak of the Dacheng stage, which is only one step away from the consummation stage.

You must know that except for some magic skills, most of the exercises or secret methods, the more you cultivate to the later stage, the slower the progress, in the past two months, you have cultivated the secret method of cutting the marrow to the peak of the Dacheng stage, which is already incredible.

Just when Li Ge was about to break through the consummation stage in one go, he suddenly received an edict from the First Emperor.

"Tomorrow morning, Your Majesty wants to summon me?"

In the study of the Longxi Houfu, Li Ge and Li Xin sat opposite each other.

It stands to reason that with Li Ge's rank, he is not qualified to go to court, but the first emperor summoned him with an exception.

The only thing that made Li Ge wonder was, why did the good First Emperor summon him?

"Grandfather, do you know why His Majesty summoned me?"

Li Ge asked suspiciously.

"The old man doesn't know, but it shouldn't be a bad thing to think about it, no matter why Your Majesty summoned you, you just need to remember that you just need to obey Your Majesty's edict."

Li Xin was actually very surprised, and didn't understand why the First Emperor wanted to summon Li Ge.

Li Ge nodded when he heard this, and he didn't bother to guess the thoughts of the First Emperor, waiting until tomorrow everything would be clear.

The next morning, the sky was slightly bright.

In the main hall of Xianyang Palace, the first emperor sits on the dragon chair, and the civil and military officials below stand on both sides.

"Your Majesty, do you remember that there was a small country named Tu'an?"

After the hundred officials visited the shrine, Li Si stepped forward and said.

"Tu'an, it's true that there is this country, they pay tribute to Great Qin every year, and the prime minister mentions Tu'an, but what's the problem?"

The First Emperor pondered for a while, and seemed to remember.

"Not long ago, the envoy of Tu'an came to my Daqin, mentioning that he wanted to send a princess to make peace with Daqin, and Weichen was absolutely feasible in this matter, which would be conducive to the stability of my Daqin......"

Li Si replied respectfully.

"In that case, the widow will make a decree and let their princess come and kiss!"

The First Emperor nodded when he heard this, and he made peace with Tu'an, which was indeed conducive to the stability of Great Qin.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that it is most appropriate for General Meng Tian to handle this matter."

When the First Emperor heard this, a glint flashed in his eyes, in fact, the matter of peace with Tu'an, the First Emperor summoned Li Si to discuss it last night, and this morning the court just mentioned it again in front of the ministers.

But last night there was no good candidate, although Li Si's proposal was not bad, and it was indeed the most suitable for Meng Tian to do this.

However, the First Emperor also knew that Li Si asked Meng Tian to pick up his relatives, and he must have his own little plans, and no one in Daqin knew that Li Si and Meng Tian were not in harmony.

Fortunately, the First Emperor has a better candidate, after all, he can't rely on Meng Tian for everything, and it's time for Daqin to cultivate the younger generation.

"Meng Aiqing is the widow's right-hand man, if Meng Aiqing goes to Tu'an, I'm afraid that the Huns will take the opportunity to offend my Great Qin, can there be other people in the court who can take on this important task?"

There was silence in the hall, and no one dared to speak for a while.

"Weichen thinks that supervising Yushi Li Ge is worthy of a big responsibility!"

The First Emperor winked, and one of the ministers came forward to propose.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister also seconded it!"

As soon as the minister's words fell, the ministers hurriedly seconded the proposal.

There were no fools in the audience, and it was natural to see that this was what the First Emperor meant.

"The minister also objected!"

Li Si frowned, but he didn't force it anymore, since the First Emperor had already made a decision, he said that no matter how much he did, it would only displease the First Emperor.

Li Si originally wanted Meng Tian to leave Xianyang, and then take the opportunity to weaken the power of Meng Tian's side.

Although Li Si can be regarded as a powerful opponent, there is still Meng Tian who can compete with him, and even faintly beat him by a few points.

But now it seems that the First Emperor has made a decision, and if he wants Meng Tian to go to Tu'an, I am afraid it is unlikely.

"Summoning Lige!"

Seeing that all the ministers agreed, the First Emperor nodded slightly, and the eunuch hurriedly summoned Li Ge.

"Weichen Li Ge, see Your Majesty!"

Li Ge walked into the main hall, his expression was as calm as water, and he walked in the main hall.

"Flat!"

Seeing that Li Ge's expression was indifferent and unfazed, the First Emperor couldn't help but nod secretly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Ge stood still, silent, waiting for the edict of the First Emperor.

"Quite a general!"

The eyes of the civil and military officials all fell on Li Ge's body.

Among them, Meng Tian and other generals nodded secretly, secretly sighing that there were successors to Great Qin.

You must know that the people present, but the most powerful group of people in the entire Great Qin, ordinary people are afraid that they will not even be able to stand steadily.

But Li Ge's face did not change, and he looked light, and this bearing alone made people secretly admire.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, supervise the imperial history Li Ge, because of the merit of suppressing bandits, specially named the captain of the army, and go to Tu'an ...... on the same day"

At the signal of the First Emperor, the eunuch read the edict.

"Commandment."

Li Ge smiled bitterly in his heart, although he was promoted, he was not happy.

You must know that he is already low-key enough, how can he still be promoted, there are still five or six years to go, how can he survive.

If the task had been completed ahead of schedule before the meteorite fell, then Li Ge would have really wanted to cry without tears.

"Isn't Meng Tian welcoming her relatives in the original book, how did she become me now?"

Li Ge couldn't figure it out, but the matter had come to this point, the holy decree had been issued, and he couldn't shirk it if he wanted to.

Next, there was basically nothing to do with Li Ge, and after two hours, it was hard to survive until the retreat, Li Ge wanted to go home directly, but he was stopped by Meng Tian halfway.

"I've seen General Meng!"

Li Ge was stunned for a moment, and then clasped his fists and saluted.

"You're welcome, Your Majesty has an order, you can choose two thousand forbidden troops and go to Tu'an with you."

Meng Tian is still very optimistic about Li Ge, a rising star, and his attitude is also very kind.

"No need, I've got six hundred cavalry!"

Li Ge shook his head and refused, bringing two thousand more infantry, but it was a drag.

Each of the 600 cavalry under his command can defeat 100 with one enemy, even if it is not a problem to defeat the 60,000 army head-on, bringing 2,000 infantry will only drag down the journey.

"Okay, say hello to General Li on my behalf."

Meng Tian had good intentions and came to remind Li Ge, but he didn't expect to be rejected by Li Ge, and he was inevitably a little unhappy in his heart.

"General Meng, go slowly!"

Li Ge doesn't care, although Meng Tian is in a high position, Li Ge doesn't ask him for anything.

After returning to Li's house, Li Ge summoned Li An and Li Quan to tell them about going to Tu'an to welcome their relatives.

After all, it is a long journey, thousands of miles away, and many things have to be prepared in advance.
