Chapter 415: Tian Ding's doubts.
"Why did Lord Tian say this?" Mao Jiao looked at Tian Ding. Although under Mao Jiao's gaze, Tian Ding slowly talked about what happened in Luoyin City before.
Mao Jiao also knew about the edict, but he didn't know Bai Yan's intentions, and now, when he learned about it and Bai Yan's purpose from Tian Ding's mouth, Mao Jiao, who was prepared in his heart, couldn't help but be shocked, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"I see!" After I don't know how long, Mao Jiaofang said softly with a sluggish face.
To be honest, if it weren't for Tian Ding, Mao Jiao wouldn't have imagined that behind the seemingly free river crossing, he would have collected all the money for Bai Yan, and he would be able to gather the news of the world in Luoyin.
"Looking at the past Bai Qi, leading the troops to attack the station, there was no defeat, but Qin can only be strong for a while, Bai Qi dies, Xin Lingjun and Li Mu can lead the troops to defeat Qin and regain the territory, so if Bai Yan only has the talent of a famous general, Tian Ding may not be like this." Tian Ding said here, looking at Mao Jiao.
"The strong country that leads the army to fight can only be strong for a while, but the strong country of Anbang can be strong for generations, Shang Yang is like this, and so is King Zhao Huiwen!" Tian Ding said.
After finishing speaking, Tian Ding looked at Mao Jiao and got up to say goodbye.
"Since Lord Mao is unwilling to return to Qi State, Tian Ding will no longer bother, and when Qi Country needs it in the future, I hope that Lord Mao will remember the kindness of his mother country and give him a helping hand!" Tian Ding Jili said.
Mao Jiao hurriedly got up, and under the wide sleeve robe of the Qin State, he returned the salute to Tian Ding with both hands. But I don't know if it was out of guilt or because of Fang Cai Tian Ding's words, Mao Jiao didn't say anything.
Inside the gazebo. After the ceremony, Mao Jiao watched Tian Ding turn around and leave, and after Tian Ding walked out of the pavilion, he thought about it and suddenly spoke.
"Lord Tian!" Mao Jiao spoke. And Tian Ding, who had just left the pavilion, heard the figure of Mao Jiao behind him, thinking that Mao Jiao was a little hesitant, and might want to change his mind, so he hurriedly stopped, turned to look at Mao Jiao, and saluted Mao Jiao.
However, to Tian Ding's surprise, Mao Jiao still had no intention of returning to Qi State. This made Tian Ding's eyes show joy and dissipate instantly.
However, Mao Jiao's next words made Tian Ding's whole person stunned in place.
"Lord Tian still doesn't know that in the Qin State, those who are talented and talented are capable of taking on great responsibilities, and they are none other than Mao Jiao! If Lord Tian can bring this person back to Qi, maybe thirty or fifty years later, Qi can be like what Lord Tian said! Able to stand side by side with the Qin State! Under Tian Ding's gaze, Mao Jiao said a sentence, a sentence that made Tian Ding scratch his head.
After Mao Jiao finished speaking, he bowed his hand to Tian Ding.
"Qi people's talents?" When Tian Ding heard Mao Jiao's words, he looked puzzled and puzzled, but Tian Ding was about to ask.
"As far as that's concerned, Mao Jiao can't say much!" After Mao Jiao finished saying this, he looked at Tian Ding, and finally turned around and left.
Because Mao Jiao almost couldn't help but say Bai Yan's name, after knowing Bai Yan's layout in Luoyin City, Mao Jiao was amazed by Bai Yan's intelligence, which made Bai Yan's talent improve in Mao Jiao's heart.
Maybe it really allowed Bai Yan to develop the Qi State with the help of Tian Ding in the thirty or fifty years of the Qi State, and maybe one day, the Qi State and the Qin State could stand side by side.
Come to think of it. Mao Jiao didn't know what to say to Tian Ding, if Tian Ding didn't drive away the young man and let him stay in Qi State, in this way, the young man who stayed in Qi Country could only be an official in Qi State in order to make his elders' words come true.
How can this be today? Mao Jiao is grateful for the grace and trust of Yingzheng, Mao Jiao is unwilling to betray Yingzheng, but he was born in the Qi country, and the meaning of the word "Chinese" is not a heavy weight in Mao Jiao's heart.
Under the entanglement, in the end, Mao Jiao didn't hold back his selfishness, and told Tian Ding that in the temple of Qin State, not only he Mao Jiao, but also a Qi person with great talent, as for who that person was, he Mao Jiao couldn't be sorry for Yingzheng and couldn't say his name.
Mao Jiao didn't know if Tian Ding could think of the young man who had been driven away, but for Mao Jiao, his reminder was enough to make him feel better.
People are so strange, many times they need an interface, whether it is to vent their emotions or make up for guilt, they need an interface to comfort themselves, it seems that whenever they are angry, uncomfortable, and guilty, they can feel a lot better.
Mao Jiao is in this state right now. When he was young, he was in the Qi State for many years, but he was not taken seriously, and then he left the Qi State and came to the Qin State, even if he was in a high position and gave advice to the Qin State, Mao Jiao could comfort himself that the Qi State did not cherish him, and he could not be resented.
However, now that Tian Ding came in person, and the attention he gave and the words talked about the remorse of the Qi people and the sorrow of the King of Qi, Mao Jiao felt guilty for a while, and the original excuse could no longer make him feel better, so Mao Jiao needed a new excuse to comfort himself.
Remind Tian Ding that there are Qi people in the temple of Qin State, and they are still great talents, as long as they return to Qi State, maybe they can really help Qi State and Qin State stand side by side.
This is the excuse in Mao Jiao's eyes. Qin State court, Qi people, more suitable talents than him Mao Jiao, thirty or fifty years later, these words, if Tian Ding settles down and thinks about it, he can't think of it.
The premise is whether Tian Ding believes his words! And not as an excuse for his refusal.
"Qi people in the Xianyang court?" Tian Ding stood outside the pavilion, looking at Mao Jiao leaving from the other direction, his face was thoughtful, full of puzzlement.
An hour later. Tian Ding returned to the embassy's mansion, came to the study, and watched his beloved daughter Tian Feiyan quietly looking at the bamboo slips in the study, and several maids were waiting beside him, so he also came to the window and knelt down.
Lin Anshun and Xunzhou have been invited to the mansion of Tingwei Li Si, Tian Ding doesn't care about this matter, Tian Ding still knows the roots of Xunzhou and Lin Anshun's personality.
And Hou Yao went to visit a Montessori.
"Qin State, Qi people? In the Xianyang court, there are talented Qi people? As the maid poured tea into the teacup in front of Tian Ding, Tian Ding was still repeating what Mao Jiao said when he left Mao Jiao's mansion.
Tian Ding attaches great importance to Qin Guo, so he has an understanding of the Qi officials in the Qin State court and even the counties and counties of Qin State, but Tian Ding never knew that there was such a person who could have the talent to see Mao Jiao's words.
"Father, why did you come back so quickly today, it seems that Mao Jiao Liuqin's mind has been decided!" Tian Feiyan, who had been looking at the bamboo slips, heard his father's murmuring, his pretty face was stunned, and after thinking of something, his beautiful eyes suddenly raised silently and looked at his father.
"Hmmm! It doesn't matter if Mao Jiao doesn't return to Qi country! Being a father today does not necessarily mean that Mao Jiao should return to Qi State. Tian Ding nodded and looked at his daughter.
"Yan'er knows that my father is going to stumble Bai Yan again!" When Tian Feiyan heard his father's words, he shook his head helplessly.
"Father is not afraid of making a trip, and he will be fooled by Mao Jiao!" After Tian Feiyan finished speaking, he continued to look at the bamboo slips, as if he didn't bother to pay attention to his father.
This made Tian Ding look at his beloved daughter with tears and laughter, if the eldest son could say that sentence, Tian Ding didn't know how relieved he should be, and he was not afraid that a hundred years later, there would be no successor.
It's a pity that whether it's the eldest son or the other two boys, they are always inferior to Yan'er in terms of intelligence. For example, if Fang Cai's three sons are there, they may not be able to see that his purpose is not just to persuade Mao Jiao to return to Qi, of course, it is best to return to Qi, but it is natural not to return to Qi, Tian Ding just wants to tell Mao Jiao about his evaluation of Bai Yan to prepare for the future.
is still the same sentence, Bai Yan does not have to die, but he must not be trusted and valued by Yingzheng for a long time, it is best to stay in Yanmen in the future, not to return to Xianyang, Qin State, and not to be summoned by Yingzheng.
"Mao Jiao!" However, for his daughter's unintentional words, Tian Ding couldn't help frowning slightly.
For a while, Tian Ding didn't know if Fang Cai Maojiao's words were polite, just because he didn't want to be wooed by him in the future.
But thinking back to the appearance of Mao Jiao standing in the pavilion at that time, Tian Ding didn't feel like it. However, looking back at the Qi officials in the court of the Qin State, it seems that none of them can deserve Mao Jiao's evaluation.
·········· In the book of the study of the royal palace. Accompanied by the eunuchs, Bai Yan saw Ying Zheng in the study, what Bai Yan didn't expect was that in addition to caring about his injuries and Luo Yin's affairs, Ying Zheng did not plan to let him leave, but stayed in the study to help Ying Zheng deliver the bamboo slips presented by the hundred officials, and after Ying Zheng finished dealing with them, he picked up the bamboo slips and placed them on the shelf.
Because it is a palace, Ying Zheng, the study of the King of Qin, is not ordinarily large, and there are even more bookshelves and bamboo slips in it, but fortunately, Ying Zheng let Han Yan come in to teach Bai Yan, and Bai Yan did not mess up, but as the hours passed, he was also very busy.
Looking at Ying Zheng, who was kneeling behind the wooden table in the study and reading bamboo slips, frowning from time to time, Bai Yan and Han Zheng stood on their own left and right.
Even Bai Yan didn't know how much time had passed, until the sky outside the window gradually darkened, and the maids entered the study one by one to light the candles, and Bai Yan couldn't leave.
Looking out of the window from time to time, Bai Yan was full of pity, after all, Bai Yan still planned to go to Tian Ding's mansion to see Tian Feiyan, after all, he couldn't see it often, Tian Feiyan was far away in Linzi of Qi State, and he couldn't leave Qin State without permission.
Right now, every day is precious to Bai Yan.
"There is turmoil in Yingchuan again!" Ying Zheng looked at a roll of bamboo slips and said with a sigh. Perhaps Yingzheng, who was brutal and unkind in the eyes of outsiders in the past, only at this time will he show a tired and helpless look.
This sentence is not an exaggeration at all, the king of a country is far from being so easy, it seems that the entire Qin court, if the government shows weakness, countless forces will appear confrontation and fighting, and officials such as the royal family and the Chu family will also have careful thoughts, and the gossip is not endless.
Therefore, a successful king sometimes can't even show an expression, or even a look, as he wants.
"Han Mo, in the past ten days, how many bamboo silks have been related to the turmoil in Yingchuan County?" Ying Zheng looked at the bamboo slip and asked.
When Han heard this, he saluted Ying Zheng.
"Back to the king, there are a total of thirty-seven points, a total of six rebellions broke out, the turmoil spread to two towns, seventy-nine people died, seventeen officials, and one hundred and twelve traitors were captured!" Han Zheng said in detail, this is the number that Han Zheng remembered, among all the bamboo silks submitted by the hundred officials, involving the statistics of Yingchuan County, these are all after Yingzheng finished reading them, Han Yan took Bai Yan to take them and placed them on the wooden shelf of Yingchuan County behind.
Unlike secret letters or urgent reports, these figures related to rebellion are to be counted.
"Yingchuan County, why are there so many people rebelling?" When Ying Zheng heard Han Zhen's words, his brows tightened, and he put down the bamboo slip in his hand full of worry.
Ying Zheng's words, Han Yu did not answer, and he would not answer, but inadvertently, he looked up at the young man standing on the other side of Ying Zheng, Bai Yan.
If Han Yan was still worried about Bai Yan yesterday, then right now, Han Yan couldn't help but be full of palpitations.
Han Mo, who has won the trust of Yingzheng, has been in the palace for decades, and knows better than anyone that the intention behind the king's stay of Bai Yan is heavier than anyone else.
Just like right now. Bai Yan is not a regular attendant, but he was left to do the work of a permanent attendant, if Han Mo can't see Ying Zheng's intentions, he will be in the palace for decades.
"Bai Yan! How do you see these things in your eyes? Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Bai Yan. If Bai Yan didn't dare to speak when he saw Han Zheng's eyes just now, then looking at Ying Zheng's inquiry, Bai Yan already knew that Ying Zheng was asking his opinion.
"Back to the king, in the eyes of the ministers, the people of Yingchuan County were all Koreans before, and now they have only been Qin people for two years, so they must not be suitable for the rule of Qin law, and the interests of the scholars are damaged, and they secretly provoke under dissatisfaction, and the rebellion is normal, and it has nothing to do with the Xianyang court!" Bai Yan said to Ying Zheng.
As he spoke, Bai Yan felt some sweat behind him, if he had led the troops to fight in the past, and every promotion to the knighthood was a test for Yingzheng, then now, every sentence was a test.
This made Bai Yan nervous, and he was very thoughtful, for fear of saying the wrong thing or saying nonsense.
"Oh?" Ying Zheng heard Bai Yan's words, and said in his words that the rebellion had nothing to do with the Xianyang court, and the fault was the scholar clan in the county, which made Ying Zheng's eyes shine, and Fang Cai's gloom and annoyance also quietly subsided.
"Tell me more!" Ying Zheng did not rush to express his position, but asked Bai Yan to explain it in detail, and looked at the bamboo slip in his hand.
Seeing this, Bai Yan looked at Ying Zheng's salute and thought about it.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Yingchuan Rebellion, in the final analysis, is nothing more than interests, the interests of Qin Law are not the cultivators, but the nobles, when Korea was in the past, the scholars were all scholars, and the sons of the magnates will still be the sons of the magnates in the future, and now that Korea is extinct, the nobles of the scholars are not only dissipated in the past, but even the status and wealth have been affected, so they are dissatisfied, and because of the reason that the farmers lived in the land of the magnates, the farmers and the people believed in their words! Therefore, the accidents of the cultivators are mostly related to the scholars! Bai Yan said what he thought in his heart, the main purpose was to push the problem to the Shi clan, in fact, no matter which dynasty, the main reason for the chaos in the world was also the Shi clan.
I really thought that all the imperial courts were not good to the people, but the orders of the imperial court were not comparable to the methods of the local scholars.
One is the court far away in the sky, and the other is a famous local family, and many times, the people will choose to listen to the latter, because they can only hear the latter.
"Those gentry want rights?" When Ying Zheng heard Bai Yan's words, he didn't show any special expression, and still looked at the bamboo slips.
Under the candlelight. Bai Yan looked at Ying Zheng and thought about it.
"The minister thinks that what those scholars ultimately want is the restoration of Korea!" Bai Yan said softly, saluting Ying Zheng.
And Bai Yan's words startled Han Yan, who was standing on the other side of the wooden table, and his eyes suddenly looked at Bai Yan.
Ying Zheng, who had been looking at the bamboo slips, was still looking at the bamboo slips, but his eyes were motionless, obviously not looking at the bamboo slips.
When Bai Yan saw this scene, he didn't speak. When he said that, Bai Yan also wanted to tell Ying Zheng that according to today's Qin law, it can't meet the needs of those scholars at all, and Qin law and those scholars can't coexist at all, either completely get rid of those scholars or modify Qin law.
When he said this, Bai Yan was also selfish. After all, it is clear that the Qin State in later generations will be defeated by the Qin Law, and the Qin Law will have forced labor, and it will be even more sinful, in this case, where the Qin State attacks and annexes, the number of people who are labored and apprenticed will multiply, especially the apprentices, eating, drinking, and housing, including clothes, according to the Qin law, are all distributed by the government, so it is good for the Qin State during the war, but if the world is together, facing hundreds of thousands, millions of apprentices, what should it do.
It is good to eat and drink, and it is given ten dollars a month!! It is still like that of later generations, without wasting manpower and labor, building a series of large projects such as mausoleums, the Great Wall, and straight roads, and then if you want to complete it quickly, you will invest more manpower.
In Bai Yan's heart, he knew better than anyone that Qin's laws must be changed, and they must be changed after the unification of the world, otherwise the Qin State will still follow the old path.
But at the moment, revising the four words of Qin Law, Bai Yan can't say it yet, and it's not suitable to say it. Inside the city of Xianyang. As night fell, it grew dark.
In the Bai Clan's mansion, Bai Yu, Lu Clan, Bai Bo, Bai Yan and others never waited for Bai Yan to return, and everyone was extremely puzzled.
"It's strange, that kid was summoned by the king when he went down to the court, and it stands to reason that he left the palace in just one or two hours, why is it dark now, and he didn't come back, wasn't he pulled to the restaurant halfway?" Bai Yu shook his head, because after returning from the affairs in the court, he told his brother and others that his brother was worried about Bai Yan, and he was also ready to discuss how to solve the gossip in Xianyang City, after all, it would also have an impact on Bai Yan in the long run.
I never thought that until it was dark, I didn't see Bai Yan come back.
"Strange! It stands to reason that even if he doesn't come back, Bai Yan should send a servant back to the house to inform him! Bai Bo and Bai Yan glanced at each other, but they couldn't figure it out.
At this moment, a servant hurriedly walked in and came to Bai Yu.
"My lord, there is a minister outside the mansion who claims to be Tai Jing, saying that he has an appointment with General Bai Yan, and he didn't see General Bai Yan going to the appointment, so he came to inquire in person!" The servant said to Bai Yu.
After hearing this, Bai Yu, Bai Bo, and Bai Yan were even more convinced that Bai Yan did not go out to drink, otherwise Bai Yan, who had already made an appointment with his friends, would definitely not be absent for no reason and lose his reputation, which would ruin his reputation.
"Invite someone into the mansion!" Bai Yu glanced at his brother Bai Yan, and after seeing Bai Yan nodding, he commanded the servant.
Seeing this, the servant hurriedly turned away and left.
