Chapter 149

"You mean the general is going to retreat!" Qiang Yan looked at Wang Ben in surprise.

There are only three people in the big tent, Qiang and Wang Ben, and there is really no one near the big tent.

Wang Ben nodded and said: "Yes, my father actually wanted to retire a long time ago, but His Majesty didn't agree, and now His Majesty wants my father to retire and set an example for the whole army." ”

"Well, the general has the highest prestige in the army, and if he retires to set an example, those generals will have nothing to say." Qiang said.

Qiang immediately asked: "The general has retired, so who will take over the post of general next?" ”

"The imperial court abolished the post of general and established the post of lieutenant to command the soldiers and horses of the world." Wang Ben said: "And Your Majesty's intention is to let General Meng Tian take the position of Tai Lieutenant. ”

Qiang Qi frowned and said: "Your Majesty really trusts the Meng family, Meng Yi is commonplace at a young age, Meng Tian has now become a lieutenant again, except for Your Majesty, the Meng family is the most powerful in this world." ”

"No matter how powerful the Meng family is, it is also given by His Majesty, as long as His Majesty wants to take it back, he can take it back at any time. Moreover, the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi are indeed capable, so it is no wonder that they have won the trust of His Majesty. Wang Ben said.

Qiang Qi frowned and said: "I don't care about the Meng family, the previous son Fusu was trained under Meng Tian, and now the two of the Meng family are in a high position, what do you mean by Your Majesty..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Wang Ben said: "Now that Your Majesty has no will, we must not talk nonsense as generals. ”

"Yes, yes, I was careless." Qiang said hurriedly.

Qiang Qi asked, "Then what are you going to do when you come to Handan this time?" ”

Wang Ben said: "I only came to Handan because Gongzi Xi is in Handan, and I mainly continue to go north to replace Meng Tian." ”

"The general has retreated, you have to go north to the grassland, Your Majesty will suppress you!" Qiang exclaimed.

"General Qiang thinks too much, my Wang Jiali has enough military exploits, it's time to be silent." Wang Ben said.

Qiang Qi nodded, since the confession, the heroes of Great Qin have all had the consciousness of retiring after success, mainly because they don't want to end up in vain.

Wang Jian and Wang Ben can be said to be the biggest contributors to the destruction of the Six Kingdoms, Wang Jian has already had the intention of retreating before, and now retreating can be regarded as a good death.

And Wang Ben, going north to the grassland away from Xianyang is equivalent to leaving the center of power.

Qiang Qi also thought of it, maybe His Majesty's arrangement may be to protect the Wang family, after all, the Wang family is deeply trusted by His Majesty.

And if the Wang family leaves, someone must fill the position of the Wang family, and the Meng family, who is also deeply trusted by His Majesty, is naturally the best choice.

Qiang Qi asked: "By the way, you came to Handan to find that Xi Gongzi, is there anything important?" ”

"It's inconvenient to say." Wang Ben said.

"I don't understand." It was immediately clear that it must be His Majesty's arrangement.

Qiang stood up and said, "In that case, then let's pull out the camp and go back." With that, he walked out of the tent.

Wang Ben looked at Ah Da at this time and said, "It's hard work." ”

"Childe, can we go back?" Ah-da asked.

"Father has dismissed the guards." Wang Ben said.

Ah Da was stunned for a moment, and then said lightly: "Ah Da understand." However, a teardrop appeared in the corner of Ah Da's eye.

"You are in the prime of life, protect your current son, and you may be able to soar in the future." Wang Ben said with a smile.

On the other side, the underground secret room was filled with an unpleasant smell of medicine, and even Bai Muxue, a doctor, had to block his nose when boiling medicine.

"What kind of medicine is this, it smells so bad." Qin Xi asked.

Bai Muxue said while boiling the medicine: "This is my doctor's secret recipe, which can make this guy look like nothing is wrong within three days." ”

"Three days later?" Qin Xi asked.

"I will definitely die in three days, if this guy is not willing, plus you beg me, I don't want to boil this medicine to death, it smells terrible." Bai Muxue said a little angrily.

"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work, aren't I here to accompany you?" Qin Xi comforted.

"Okay, the medicine is ready." Bai Muxue said and took down the medicine jar on the fire.

Bai Muxue looked at the old man and said, "Tonight, apply this medicine to him, don't leak a single place, and he should be able to look like a normal person at noon tomorrow." ”

"Yes, ma'am." The old man said.

Bai Muxue was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "When will I become a wife!" If you dare to talk nonsense, I will make you never speak, believe it or not! ”

The old man was startled and hurriedly covered his mouth.

"Humph!" Bai Muxue snorted coldly, then turned her head and went out.

Qin Xi gave a thumbs up to the old man behind Bai Muxue, and then chased him out as well.

Qin Xi's thumbs up meant that the old man was too brave, but the old man misunderstood, thinking that Qin Xi was saying that he had done a good job.

And it was this misunderstanding that made Qin Xi almost die of Bai Muxue's medicine.

After Qin Xi chased him out, he hurriedly apologized to Bai Muxue for the old man.

"Mu Xue, that kid has always been a debtor, don't blame him, I'll clean him up later." Qin Xi said.

"Alright." Bai Muxue said: "If I really want to clean him up, he is lying down now." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Qin Xi smiled and said, "Mu Xue, you have helped a lot today, so I decided to cook it myself, thank you." ”

Bai Muxue immediately smiled and said, "Then it's decided, but it's not allowed to go back." ”

"Of course, let's go, let's get out of here first." Qin Xi said with a smile.

After coming out of the secret room, the old bustard opened the door for Qin Xi.

Qin Xi turned to the old bustard and said, "Assemble the secret guards to prevent Zheng Yi from changing." ”

"No!"

As soon as he walked outside the door, Qin Xi saw the ancient axe sitting on the ground outside, and Qin Xi remembered that the ancient axe had come in with him.

After seeing Qin Xi, Gu Axe immediately stood up, didn't speak, and stood there quietly.

Qin Xi asked, "Knowing that I was inside, why didn't you go in?" ”

"Master said that this kind of place is very dirty, and I am not allowed to go in a step." The ancient axe said with his head tilted.

"Your master is right." Qin Xi said.

"Then you still go in, son." Gu Axe looked at Qin Xi puzzled.

Qin Xi said helplessly: "There's no way, if you don't go in, it's not good, I'm not like you." ”

Then there was the sound of horses' hooves, followed by the jumping of chickens and dogs.

"Zheng Yi?" Qin Xi saw behind the crowd that Zheng Yi led a group of people to ride fast horses and passed over the street in front of him.

"Zheng Yi is back, do you know that you have found Zheng Fu?" Bai Muxue said.

"Possibly." Qin Xi frowned and said: "The law of Great Qin stipulates that except for emergency military reports, no one is allowed to ride a fast horse in the city. ”

"Looking at the reaction of the people here, it should be used to it, it seems that it is not the first time that Zheng Yi has guarded the county." Bai Muxue watched the people quickly return to normal.

"Let's go, let's go back first, I'll play Your Majesty in this matter." Qin Xi said.
