Chuan Yangjun laughed as he spoke, since he had a game with Chen Ke two days ago, he felt that Chen Ke was indeed a person who could be trusted.

He looked at Chuan Mugong and said, "There are not many things that we can do to help Your Majesty, old bones. ”

"The only thing left is to train a few talents for Your Majesty."

"For example, Chen Ke is very good."

"The smarter and more capable he is, the more he will be able to bring rich benefits to Great Qin."

Chuan Mugong also nodded slightly, he is an old thing left over from several eras ago, in fact, what he values most is not this person's background, but this person's ability.

As long as you are willing to do things for Daqin, as long as you are capable, you can use it no matter what your background.

This is Daqin's self-confidence.

Because Da Qin will give enough power and money so that that person will not turn his back on Da Qin.

Chuanyangjun sighed faintly and said, "Actually, Ziying's child is really good. ”

"He's much better than winning them."

"It's just that we don't have time to look at him anymore and just see what choices he can make."

He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The two children who won the bitterness and won the hardship, when they were young, they were still good, I don't know why they became like this." ”

There was a little helplessness in Chuan Yangjun's eyes.

In the past, Win and Win have always supported Yingzheng, but now I don't know why Oh Ah suddenly became like this.

People may change.

Chuan Mugong can see it very clearly: "People will change, what can we do?" ”

"We can protect him for a while, but we can't protect him for a lifetime, everything has a certainty."

"Even if the child is in the future, it will deviate from the current mind, what can it do?"

"When the time comes, there will naturally be people of that era to clean him up and bring him to the normal trajectory."

After so many years of ups and downs, Chuan Mugong is used to seeing everything in the world.

It's normal to have greed.

People who don't have greed and don't change are really rare people.

"Okay, tomorrow's big court meeting is the focus, so many days' layout, tomorrow can be closed."

"Presumably after tomorrow, this Great Qin will no longer have any voices against His Majesty."

"It would be an honor for you and me to use this body that is about to be buried in the loess to make a final contribution to Daqin and His Majesty."

Chuan Yangjun bowed slightly, and pushed Chuan Mugong towards the house.

At this time, white snowflakes began to drift in the courtyard, and countless snowflakes fell to the ground and fluttered one after another. 、

The big tree in the courtyard that had been planted a long time ago had completely withered at this time.

Some of its branches had also decayed, and some had even fallen to the ground in pieces.

The life of this tree is finally coming to an end.

Baijia Palace

Yan Kun sat in the main hall, with a slightly interesting look on his face, his fingertips pinched this chess piece, and the chess piece landed somewhere on the chessboard.

"Have you really forgotten the hatred of those days?"

"Two years ago, if it weren't for Chen Ke, how would the teacher be beheaded, and even the entire Confucianism would be ......"

The face of the person in front of him had a look of hatred on his face, and the whole person looked extremely angry, like a burning flame.

And Yan Kong's expression was unhurried, he just said vigorously: "The teacher's affairs are not all His Majesty's fault, nor is it all Chen Fengchang's fault. ”

"Back then, Confucianism was too big, and even deliberately wanted to shake the crown prince and make trouble for the emperor's successor."

"Your Majesty just killed the first evil, and didn't even implicate the Kong family too much."

"What is there to worry about?"

His expression was clear and clear, and he looked very ordinary.

Qu Liang looked at Yan Kun viciously, and just said coldly: "So, you have completely forgotten the teacher's hatred and become Chen Ke's person?" ”

"What was wrong with the teacher? It's just that I want to fulfill the wishes of the sages. ”

"Isn't it true that my Confucian has worked hard for hundreds of years just to make his ancestor Confucius holy?"

Yan Kun was just silent: "Teacher, they chose the wrong method. ”

He put the chess pieces there, and said indistinctly, "If you came to me this time just for this matter, then go back." ”

"I don't want to get involved in any of these things anymore."

"Now, I am just concentrating on studying in this hundred palaces, studying the classic knowledge of Confucianism, and inheriting the wishes of the sages."

"Revenge and political matters, don't look for me."

Yan Kun stood up with a cold expression, then held the scroll in one hand, and the other behind his back, and left indifferently.

Qu Liang, who stayed in place, had anger in his eyes, and the flames of anger had completely burned his reason.

At this time, he couldn't tell right from wrong, and he couldn't tell friend from foe.

"Really?"

He muttered to himself, "In that case, then you should go with the teacher." ”

"The teacher's favorite person back then was you, and now the teacher has been framed to death by that person, how can you live alone?"

"What's more.... You also forgot about the hatred of the teacher. ”

Qu Liang stood up, his body was a little shaky, and he quietly looked at the shadow in the distance.

"It is imperative to divide the feud, and when the lord divides the feud into kings, ask the king to take you to the fiefdom and bury you next to the teacher's tomb."

With that, Qu Liang turned and left.

Penglai Chau

In the middle of the night, a horse was traveling across a mountain and river, and a man was sitting on it.

He was dressed in a military figure, and even the things on his body looked very expensive, and no one dared to provoke him.

Who would dare to stop something that is urgent for eight hundred miles?

Don't want to die?

And this man is about to come to Penglai Island with a letter.

..........

Penglaizhou Prefecture Prefecture Yamen

Guan Zhuo sat in the yamen, even if it was late at night, he was still dealing with government affairs.

There are many people like him, since Chen Ke and Fusu left, most of the government affairs in Penglaizhou have fallen on them.

The order of the Manufacturing Department, the command of the Municipal Property Department, and the Fan Lingjun of the Publication Department who didn't know what his position was.

Of course, Huo Shi, the county guard of Linzi County, often came to help.

Chen Ke will definitely not stay in Penglaizhou for a long time, this is something that everyone knows.

And after Chen Ke left, the candidate for the governor of Penglaizhou had actually begun to speculate about taking sides.

The most likely thing is naturally the county guard Huo Shi of Linzi County, after all, Linzi County is the state capital of Penglaizhou.

Taking over as governor seemed a matter of course.

"Bang bang bang-"

Short, powerful voices rang out, and there was a knock on the door outside.

Guan Zhuo raised his head from the government affairs, looked at the door and rubbed his forehead slightly and said, "Come in." ”

And when the figure outside was revealed, he said with a little surprise: "Huo Junshou? ”

"Is there anything you can do at such a late hour?"

Huo Shi looked at Guan Zhuo with a serious expression: "Your Majesty has a will, and Guan Zhuo will accept the order." ”

He took out a well-sealed letter from his sleeve, then looked at Guan Zhuo and said, "This is Your Majesty's eight-hundred-mile urgent decree, so take charge of the order." ”

..........

Chenzhangtai Palace

Before dawn, the Zhangtai Palace was full of waiting courtiers.

Li Si sat in front of him, squinting slightly.

The ups and downs of the past few days, he can feel them in Xianyang City.

His Majesty's game with some people in the clan is already in its final stages.

The message is dissipated in silence.

This was really a surprise to him, and Li Si originally thought that this game would take a little longer.

I didn't expect that it was almost over in just a few days.

He shook his head and looked at the old man sitting in front of him in the distance, his eyes closed calmly.

This one has already come out, and it seems that things have really reached the final chapter.

..........

As a sharp voice sounded, Ying Zheng walked out of the apse, his expression calm, as if he had not felt the recent ups and downs at all.

He still looked at the many courtiers in the audience and said, "What is the matter with you today? ”

In the crowd, a minister stepped forward.

This person looked excited, with an excited look on his face, he was an imperial historian of the Imperial History Tower, and he was indeed in charge of supervision affairs on weekdays.

"Your Majesty, the ministers should participate in the county guard Yanfang, and the county guard of Chen County will be appointed to pervert the law for bribes, shield the local forces, and cause many people to die."

He fell to his knees like a man of vengeance.

Then his voice was even more pathetic, looking at Chen Ke sitting in front of him, his voice became even more indignant: "The minister also wants to inform Fengchang, Chen Ke, the governor of Penglaizhou, and Huo Shi, the county guard of Linzi County, to shield Huo Zhen and deliberately kill people, and threaten my people of Great Qin in broad daylight." ”

This person burst into tears, looked at Ying Zheng who was sitting on the high platform and said: "Your Majesty, especially Huo Zhen, he relied on the governor of Penglaizhou to be his brother's teacher, so he was unscrupulous in Penglaizhou. ”

"Your Majesty—"

"The minister feels worthless for those people of Great Qin!"

"They trust these people with all their hearts, and they trust the county guards sent by the imperial court, but these county guards do not treat them well."

"These county guards have betrayed Your Majesty's trust."

Hong Liang said as he spoke, and the tears in his eyes fell with true feelings.

But there was silence all around, no one spoke, no one spoke, and even the people of Yushitai did not dare to speak to help Hong Liang speak.

Everyone's Hong Liang's eyes were a kind of look at the dead, and they felt that this person was dead.

And Ying Zheng on the stage looked at this scene, but there was a mocking desert at the corner of his mouth.

"Oh?"

"Hong Aiqing, are there any people or things you are talking about that can be corroborated?"

Ying Zheng sat on the high platform, quite a little solemn without anger and self-authority, his eyes were extremely black, like the night sky.

After hearing this, Hong Liang did not panic in the slightest, but just said: "Your Majesty, the minister naturally has a witness!" ”

His face was sincere: "The eyewitness of Huo Shi's younger brother who deliberately killed someone in Linzi County was beaten by Governor Chen, but now he has come to Xianyang City. ”

"I am now waiting for His Majesty's summons outside the Xianyang Palace."

Ying Zheng looked at this scene, only found it interesting, he looked at Hong Liang and said, "Oh? Can someone prove it, and was beaten by Chen Kequ into a trick?? ”

"Then summon this person to the palace."

Ying Zheng looked at Chen Ke on the side again and asked, "Chen Ke, what do you say about this matter?" ”

Chen Ke said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, those who are clean are self-purifying, and there is nothing to explain. ”

"What has been done is what has been done, what has not been done is not done, the shadow of a person who is upright will never be oblique, this minister will always believe."

Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head: "Everyone else has sued you, and you don't even defend yourself?" ”

"It's really confident."

"Then wait for the one who testifies."

At this time, Hong Liang knelt there, did not get up, just looked at Ying Zheng and continued: "Your Majesty, even if that person lied to me, the matter about Governor Chen is false. ”

"But the other two counties are true."

"And ......"

Speaking of this, Hong Liang's expression was a little hesitant, and he seemed to be stumped.

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "And what?" ”

Hong Liang gritted his teeth, looked directly at Ying Zheng and said, "And Your Majesty, this matter has exposed the shortcomings of the county system. ”

"These people are local officials and control the power of one side."

"It's okay to be close to Your Majesty, but if you are far away from Your Majesty, will they still have Daqin in their hearts? Will there be a Majesty? ”

"If one day they rebel and rebel, what should we do with Great Qin?"

He said very sincerely: "What's more, these days, the ministers often hear rumors in the city, and there are foxes in Ba County and Shu County. ”

"I think this is also a warning from God."

In this matter, among the ministers, someone stood up again, with a strange expression.

"Your Majesty, speaking of the warning left by God, the minister remembered something."

He said respectfully: "Recently, there have been rumors in Huiji County that I saw the immortal palace left in the sky by the sea. ”

"It is said that it is possible to be the remains of immortals."

This person raised his head, looked at Ying Zheng on the high platform and said, "It just so happens that next year's spring day will be the time for Your Majesty to tour the east." ”

"Does Your Majesty want to add this Huiji County to the location of the Eastern Tour?"

These two things seem to be incompatible, but in fact, there is a connection between them.

When Hong Liang heard this person's words, he immediately spoke again: "Your Majesty, this celestial phenomenon will not appear sooner or later, but it will appear at this time. ”

"Is there some connection between this?"

"The minister feels that this must be the heavens waking up about the county system, Your Majesty."

Hong Liangkang's impassioned voice spread throughout the entire hall, and the people around looked at this scene and felt a little delusional.

It was as if it had happened three years ago.....

It's just that at that time, the one who knelt on the ground to support the sub-feudal system was the most staunch anti-feudal person sitting there now.

Same words, same places.

Even the time is almost the time of the morning meeting, which is really a little emotional.

Someone in the crowd even whispered: "At this time, there are still people who dare to support the sub-sealing system? Are you really not afraid of following in their footsteps? ”
