Chapter 231: Retreat
Concubine Chen even felt from Zhao Hai's body that kind of temperament, that kind of majesty, and that kind of means when the first emperor was still there.
At this point, she finally understood that Liu Yuan was not stupid to death, but really couldn't fight Zhao Hai and was forced to die.
In her heart, fear trumps ambition, hesitation trumps strategy.
I've done so many things, if one day, everything is revealed, where should I go?
Zhao Hai didn't know all this, and he didn't want to know.
He had just left Ganquan Palace at the moment, on his way to the Chengming Palace.
Han Ying appeared from the shadows and followed behind Zhao Hai, honest and responsible, like a humble and cautious old slave. No one would associate such a person with the terrifying Black Ice Platform of Great Qin.
Zhao Hai said: "Han Ying, recently in Concubine Chen's Ganquan Palace, send a little more manpower to pay attention to her movements. Now that her heart has been disturbed by me, she will inevitably be like Liu Yuer, trying to save herself. ”
"If the soldiers are in danger, this is the time when she exposes her flaws."
"Once I catch her flaws, I can further deceive her about whether her son has rebelled, and whether she is in the same party."
Han Ying nodded and said, "No." ”
"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and controls the divine machine, the old minister will definitely go all out to cooperate with Your Majesty, and will never mess up."
Zhao Hai nodded, he already had a plan in his chest, and he also had a chance of winning in his eyes.
Zhao Hai quickly returned to the Chengming Hall and reviewed the recital.
It wasn't long before the sun had set in the west, and it seemed to be dusk.
At this moment, after a report, a person hurriedly came, as if he had something urgent to report to Zhao Hai.
This person is the Fengchang Qian Lun of Great Qin, and Qian Lun is in charge of large-scale activities such as temple sacrifices and Zen sealing.
Zhao Hai immediately gave Qian Lun a seat, and then asked, "Qian Aiqing, what is the matter with coming to me so late?" ”
Qian Lun said: "Report to Your Majesty, this time Weichen came to discuss with Your Majesty about this year's temple sacrifice. ”
"Jongmyo sacrifice?" Zhao Hai raised his eyebrows, speaking of which, he had never experienced anything like this. But this kind of sacrifice, the sacrifice of heaven and earth to the gods, seems to be a relatively important activity in Daqin.
Zhao Hai put down the music in his hand and asked, "Since you mentioned it, you must have prepared it well." ”
Qian Lun said: "That's right, Your Majesty, the manpower and rituals have all been finalized, and the sacrificial utensils and venues have all been prepared. ”
"Now I want to tell Your Majesty that October 13 is the most suitable time to worship the heavens on Mount Tai."
"This day is the result of the calculations of many Qi Refiners. On this day, I can sacrifice to the sky, so that the sky can bless my Great Qin, the wind and rain are smooth, the peace and stability, prosperity, and eternity. ”
Zhao Hai nodded, "In that case, Qian Lun, you should prepare well, and then come directly to me." ”
Qian Lun glanced at Zhao Hai, with an expression on his face that wanted to speak and stopped.
Zhao Hai immediately saw that Qian Lun still had something to say, so he asked: "Qian Aiqing, if you have anything to say, just say it directly to me, it's okay." I don't blame you. ”
Qian Lun smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, originally this sacrifice to heaven should have been held in Mount Tai. ”
"However, in recent times, the assassination of rebels has continued, and the situation has changed too much, and the wind has surged. Many adults are opposed to the worship ceremony for His Majesty's safety. ”
"Many adults say that if you must worship the heavens, you should also choose to be in Xianyang Palace, in this palace, to ensure the safety of Your Majesty."
Weichen also felt that what the adults said made sense. This is a long way to go to Taishan Mountain, and if you stay outside for too long, you will have a greater chance of encountering risks. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hai pondered for a while.
In this place of Mount Tai, I am afraid that even the road has not been repaired, and the only thing that can go up is the temporary road. The terrain should all be steep in the vicinity, and there is no safety hook or anything like that in this era.
When the time came, the assassin came out of the side of the mountain, and he couldn't run by himself.
However, if it is held in the palace, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the people of the world.
Since his father, the first emperor, he has been sacrificing to the heavens in Mount Tai, and he has done it here and in his own palace, which is unprecedented.
Because of fear, the most important event is to pray for good weather and for the great affairs of the country. If it is because of fear, it can only be held in the palace.
When this matter reaches the hands of future historians, how should I write myself? Will he say that he is a monarch who has no courage at all?
Thinking of this, he Zhao Hai immediately waved his hand and said, "It's in Mount Tai." ”
"We just need to increase the number of people to protect and clear the site."
"This year there have been many natural disasters, with frequent droughts and floods in various places. If I don't pray for the blessings of the people of the world, how can I be the king of the world? In the palace to worship the sky, how many people can see it? How to convince people when it is passed out? ”
"Mount Tai sacrifices to the sky, and he must go."
"Besides, I have countless elite soldiers and strong generals, and the Great Qin of the Six Kingdoms has been defeated, and I am afraid that he will be a few assassins who will not die? Let him come if he has a kind! Emperor Daqin, there is no one who is afraid of death! ”
"Spread throughout the royal family, not only I am going, but also the concubines, princes, and eldest princesses are all going with me."
"No." Qian Lun was shocked by Zhao Hai's courage, and immediately said in his heart, Your Majesty is really the hero of the world, and with such courage, the first emperor is still alive.
Daqin has His Majesty, which is the blessing of Daqin.
He watched Zhao Hai retreat with admiration on his face.
……
Soon, three days later.
In a side hall of Qi Palace.
Zhao Hai's low gasp lasted for half an hour.
It wasn't until Zhao Hai called the palace maids outside to come in and serve that the palace maids dared to go in with a red face and send out the sweaty and red Qingyue.
Zhao Hai reinvigorated his spirits and returned all the way back to his Chengming Palace. When he was walking on the road, Zhao Hai found that he actually had Qingyue's red belly pocket on his body, and hurriedly hid it in his chest.
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Han Ying waiting there early.
Zhao Hai said hello and summoned Han Ying into the hall.
Zhao Hai said: "Han Ying, what's the matter with coming to me so early in the morning?" ”
Han Ying said calmly: "Murong Qinxin, the palace master of the Shifting Flower Palace, said that he was looking for you to have something to do, so he specially left a letter at the Four Seas Inn to give it to His Majesty. ”
After speaking, Han Ying presented a white letter.
Zhao Hai took it, a little surprised.
This Murong Qinxin is such a cold woman, she was extremely unpolite when she spoke last time, and now she will take the initiative to find herself, is it possible, this woman is going to kill the emperor again?
But I haven't seen her in a few days, and I miss her strangely. Such a goddess with good looks, temper and ability, she must want to see more.
Zhao Hai took the envelope and opened it.
