"Li Junshou, get ready!" Meng Yi glanced at Li Changqing below and said meaningfully.

"What are you going to prepare?" Li Changqing said with a look of confusion on his face.

Meng Yi looked at Li Changqing's expression, and suddenly his teeth itched with anger, this kid obviously asked knowingly, but he had already resisted the impulse in his heart; "Of course, it's to welcome him, and lead all the officials and people in the city to greet His Majesty outside the city gate." ”

Li Changqing shook his head, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, "That would be too disturbing to the people, just lead the officials of the city to meet you." ”

"Isn't this too disrespectful, unseemly?" Meng Yi said patiently although he was angry.

Li Changqing shook his head again and said, "I will send a herald to announce the whole city, Your Majesty will come to Xiangping in person, if the people are willing, they can go out of the city to meet them, and those who are unwilling will not be reluctant, otherwise it will be self-defeating, but it will damage the prestige of Your Majesty." ”

Meng Yi frowned, thinking about it, he also felt that what this kid said was quite reasonable, so he could only give up and agree with his approach, although he was disrespectful to His Majesty, but forcibly disturbing the people did damage His Majesty's prestige, and His Majesty did not like to disturb the people.

Ying Zheng looked at the majestic ancient city several meters high in front of him, and he was very emotional. Both sides of the city were crowded with people, and there was a noisy round of conversation.

Ying Zheng led the horse team to reduce the speed of a hundred meters away from the city gate, tidied up the crown bead curtain above his head, patted the dust on the black court clothes on his body, and slowly advanced towards the city gate in the lead.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live, ten thousand years of Great Qin, ten thousand years, ten thousand years. The soldiers standing outside Chengwai took the lead in shouting loudly with halberds in their hands, and the halberds in their hands stood facing the sky.

Meng Yi and Li Changqing led the officials and military officials of the whole city to meet them at this time, knelt down at the gate of the city and bowed three times, and said in unison, "Long live, long live, long live, ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand years." ”

Ying Zheng rode his horse to the gate of the city, looked at the more than 100 people kneeling on the ground, and said in a calm tone, "Calm down!"

"Your Majesty. Meng Yi and Li Changqing led everyone to get up, dispersed to both sides, and stood straight and upright, welcoming His Majesty into the city.

At this time, the outside of the city and inside the city were crowded with people watching the commotion, and the noisy chatter was gone, replaced by silence and curious gazes and the look of awe on people's faces.

Ying Zheng looked at the crowds of people, but there was no cheering, only afraid of silence, not surprising, Liaodong is the old land of Yanguo, although it has been integrated for more than ten years, but the people's hearts have not yet been fully gathered.

After entering the city, I saw two rows of mighty and strong soldiers standing with halberds in their hands on both sides of the wide avenue, maintaining order, and the dense crowd of people behind the soldiers was swept away by Ying Zheng's gaze, and all of them immediately lowered their heads, and no one dared to look directly at his gaze.

Ying Zheng felt a trace of loneliness and loneliness in his heart, he finally understood the true meaning of the cold in the heights, just a moment of hesitation, he immediately regained his calm, he had no way to retreat, he could only go forward.

Directly arrived at the county guard's mansion, Ying Zheng, accompanied by Meng Yi and Li Changqing, entered the lobby, looking at the simple lobby, there were only a few dilapidated tables and chairs and bamboo slips and books piled high on the table in the lobby, Ying Zheng was slightly speechless, just walked up quietly, sat down, and looked at Meng Yi and Li Changqing below.

"Chen Mengyi. ”

"Minister Li Changqing. ”

"Knock on your majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live, long live, long live the Great Qin, ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand years. The two knelt down in unison.

Ying Zheng was a little tired, and there was some novelty at first, but now he was numb, and he could only say mechanically; ”

"Your Majesty. The two bowed again, stood up, and waited for Yingzheng to ask.

Although Ying Zheng doesn't like these red tape, he knows that the etiquette of the Tao in ancient society cannot be abolished, especially the emperor, and he can't be sloppy, although he is depressed, he can only cry out in vain.

"Your Majesty's ministers plead guilty. Li Changqing felt a little guilty and took the lead in breaking Chen Jing.

"Are you?" said Ying Zheng with a deliberate hint of doubt.

Seeing this, Meng Yi immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is Li Changqing, the county guard of Liaodong, who was personally appointed by His Majesty. ”

"Oh, I remembered, what are you guilty of?" Ying Zheng pretended to suddenly realize, and then said a little puzzled.

"The minister is ashamed of His Majesty's holy grace and the trust of the people of Liaodong, which has led to the people's misery, countless deaths and injuries, and I implore Your Majesty to make a conviction. Li Changqing did not shy away from the responsibility and took the initiative to plead guilty.

Ying Zheng was confused for a while, but under Meng Yi's explanation, he understood the cause and effect, pondered for a while, and said abruptly, "Are you really not afraid of death?"

"People are not grass and trees, who is not afraid of death? But the eldest husband also dies well, and he is worthy of his heart. "Li Changqing is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is categorical.

"Oh, then how can you die so that you can be worthy of your heart and die well?" Ying Zheng looked at Li Changqing and felt very interesting.

"The minister does not ask for forgiveness from His Majesty, and avoids without fighting, which is indeed detrimental to the great Qin Tianwei and His Majesty's Shengming, and the only death is to thank the world. However, the minister dared to implore His Majesty to say a few words and die without regrets. Li Changqing knelt down and said with a very sincere face.

"Well, it seems that you are really not afraid of death, in that case, I am right, you can say it! lest you leave with regrets, and I can't bear it. Ying Zheng nodded in a good manner, his face was still extremely serious, but his heart was happy, this guy is really a superb.

"The 100,000 enemy troops of Goguryeo on the other side of the river are fearless, the Great Qin has a million soldiers, only 100,000 barbarians, and the stragglers are brave and vulnerable, but the remnants of the Yan State still exist, and it is the disaster of the Great Qin. Li Changqing said meaningfully, with a look of innocence.

"Finished?" Ying Zheng's face showed a hint of impatience, and he looked completely unlistenable.

"After the minister finished speaking, please give the minister a death. Li Changqing saw that Ying Zheng looked like he couldn't listen to him, and sighed slightly in his heart, and his face was very depressed.

"What kind of death you want, I give you the choice. Ying Zheng flipped through the bamboo slips and books on the table and said casually.

"Thanks to Your Majesty's love, I will give the minister a cup of poison bar!" Li Changqing bowed to Ying Zheng with a sad expression.

"Zhao Gao. Ying Zheng shouted, and then continued to look through the bamboo slip books.

Zhao Gao heard Ying Zheng's voice, hurriedly walked in from outside the lobby door, bowed down and bowed, "The old slave is here." ”

"Come here. Ying Zheng gave him a blank look.

Zhao Gao was glanced at by Ying Zheng, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and then walked next to Ying Zheng, worried.

Ying Zheng approached his ear and whispered a few words, and then continued to look at the bamboo slips and books in his hand.

"The old slave commands. After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he hurriedly walked out of the lobby and quickly disappeared at the door.

"Your Majesty. Seeing this, Meng Yi gritted his teeth and stood up.

"Hmm, what's the matter?" Ying Zheng said with some surprise as he put down the bamboo slip.

"Your Majesty, although Li Junshou is guilty, he is not guilty to death?" Meng Yi immediately said the question in his heart, very incomprehensible, His Majesty treated his subordinates with kindness, but his current approach made him completely incomprehensible.

"Are you questioning my decision?" Ying Zheng frowned slightly, and his face showed displeasure.

"The minister didn't dare, but Li Jun was loyal and courageous, although his words were excessive, but he also cared about His Majesty's safety and concern. Although Li Junshou adopted the strategy of avoiding but not fighting, although there were some inappropriateness, which was detrimental to the prestige of heaven, it was understandable, and it was also the safest and most secure strategy, and the minister implored His Majesty to punish him lightly. Meng Yi knelt down and pleaded for Li Changqing.

"Did I want him to die? Is he bent on dying, what can I do? A gentleman is not strong, so I have no choice but to fulfill it. Ying Zheng showed a playful look on his face and looked at the two of them, but Li Changqing still didn't have the slightest fear on his face, which made him feel interesting and admirable.

"......" Meng Yi was directly blocked by Yingzheng's words, I really don't know what to say, it seems to be true, it has always been this Li Changqing kid who is brainless and bent on death, this is really a fucking weird thing, Meng Yi is very speechless.

"......" Li Changqing was also very speechless when he heard Ying Zheng's words, and he was also extremely depressed, although he was not afraid of death, it didn't mean that he wanted to die?
