Chapter 86 Xianyang Shocking Change (II)
Nanyang County Shoufu Ya.
Ying Shaohan, who received his father's letterhead, asked Gongsun Yan and Huang Teng to discuss.
After more than a month of Huang Teng's efforts, Nanyang gradually regained its former vitality, the panic caused by the inexplicable killing of the three major families gradually dissipated, and in the streets and alleys of Nanyang City, there were also businesses that began to open, and naturally there were also people who came to buy items.
To Ying Shaohan's surprise, more than half a month ago, the missing head of the Wan family came back and brought back the young master of the Bian family.
Ying Shaohan, who thought that he would be retaliated against, was really scared for several days, but later found that the head of the Wan family had closed the door after he came back, and he had never even seen anyone, which made Ying Shaohan's hanging heart let go slightly.
Gongsun Yan and Huang Teng walked into the hall of the mansion one after the other, and saw Gongzi sitting in the hall, his brows furrowed.
Seeing the two of them coming in, Ying Shaohan stood up and walked down, handed the letterhead in his hand to Gongsun Yan and said, "Sir, my father asked me to go back at this time, did something happen to the court?" “。
After reading the contents of the letterhead, Gongsun Yan handed it to Huang Teng, who was standing aside. After a little contemplation, he said: "Childe, I got the news a few days ago that the king seems to have respected Xianyang and made Fan Yi a guest."
"You're saying my father wants to take back the throne?" Ying Shaohan and Fan Yi are old acquaintances, teachers and friends. Regarding Fan Yi's talent and courage, he has long understood it, and he also knows what it means for his father to respect Fan Yi as a guest.
Gongsun Yan glanced at Ying Shaohan with a calm face, and said in a low voice: "Gongzi must be prepared, once the situation changes, it will be easy to deal with it."
Ying Shaohan shook his head and said lightly: "Mr. is too worried, since my father asked me to go back, I must be fully prepared."
"General Bai Ling arrived in the capital yesterday, he can control all the soldiers and horses of the Qin State in his hands, if he ......" Gongsun Yan didn't make his words clear, but the meaning was obvious.
Huang Teng said with a smile: "Lord Gongsun, you can rest assured, the general is loyal to Daqin, and will not do anything to cause chaos, even if he returns to the capital, it will only be beneficial to the king's affairs, not harmful." Huang Teng and Bai Ling are close friends, and Huang Teng is a hundred reassuring of Bai Ling's character, he is by no means a person who supports the army and is self-respecting.
Ying Shaohan agreed with Huang Teng's words, and said loudly: "Two gentlemen, I plan to leave for the palace early tomorrow morning, and please worry more about Nanyang."
"Childe, don't worry......," the two bowed.
Ying Shaohan smiled slightly, walked to Huang Teng's side, and said in a low voice: "Lord Huang, Nanyang is related to my Great Qin State affairs, don't be careless, beware of a sneak attack by the Chu State, you and Mr. Gongsun will cooperate sincerely, and wait for my triumphant return......."
Huang Teng nodded, thinking that Nanyang had stabilized under his own governance, even if there was no Gongsun Yan Nanyang, there would never be any mistakes, but it was the court, and it would definitely be turbulent.
After pondering for a while, Huang Teng said meaningfully: "Childe, Lord Gongsun has been following you all the year round, and he is also familiar with the affairs of the court, according to the opinion of the lower officials, it is better to let Lord Gongsun accompany Gongsun back to the palace with Gongzi, so that there is a good response."
Ying Shaohan looked at Gongsun Yan and said, "Sir, what do you think?" ”。
Gongsun Yan said expressionlessly: "Listen to the ...... of the son."
Ying Shaohan walked to the door, looked at the blue sky, thoughtful. He knew very well that his father was in such a hurry to let him go back, there must be something big, many people in the court obeyed the orders of the queen mother, although his father was shrewd, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no mistakes, and Mr. Gongsun walking with himself was indeed more useful than staying in Nanyang.
If the father really wants to regain the royal power, Mr. Gongsun can still help. After thinking about it again and again, he said resolutely: "Okay, according to what Master Huang said, Mr. will return to the palace with me tomorrow morning."

Xianyang Palace.
King Qin and Fan Yi sat opposite each other, making plans.
If Bai Ling didn't interfere in this matter, most of this matter would have been successful, and the rest would be the interest group of the doctor. The Queen Mother is old, and she has been imprisoned by herself, so she is insignificant.
The eight thousand soldiers of Xianyang Palace guarding the city obeyed Fan Yi's orders, and the mutiny could not happen, and the most important thing now was how to deal with the doctor and the prime minister.
Outside Xianyang Palace, in the prime minister's mansion in the southeast corner of Xianyang City.
Wei Xiang gathered many people who held important official positions in the court and China, intending to rebel.
Wei Xiang understood that as long as the King of Qin was in power, he would not have good fruit to eat, and now Bai Ling stood by and watched, all this could only be relied on himself, but fortunately, he had also attracted many former generals over the years.
The palace has been under martial law, and the Queen Mother can't count on it, what exactly should be done to stop King Qin, to be honest, Wei Xiang didn't have any clue.
In the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there were as many as 20 people gathered, most of whom were officials in important positions, and a few people had served as generals and commanders in the army.
At this time, everyone bowed their heads and remained silent.
Wei Xiang sat on the main seat, his face solemn. glanced at everyone present, and finally stopped at Xiangguo, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Xiangguo, you are the king's own uncle, and now only you can enter the palace, so you have to work hard to save the queen mother."
Xiangguo shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Doctor Shang doesn't know, although I am an uncle Wang, now the king intends to strengthen the royal power, and I, who is an uncle, is also a thorn in his side, how can I enter the palace?" ”。
Huayang Jun Yingrong, who was sitting behind Xiangguo, said loudly: "Everyone, once the king is in power, we will inevitably be liquidated, and now when it comes to burning his eyebrows, he can't take care of the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers, in my opinion, we might as well enter the palace and force the king to be the prince."
"Hahaha, Huayangjun, don't forget, the eight thousand defenders of Xianyang City are all in Fan Yi's hands," Jingyangjun said.
"On the grounds that we are discussing the government together, Fan Yi does not dare to use soldiers and horses without authorization," Gao Lingjun said.
Wei Xiang looked at a burly middle-aged man and said, "General Wang, what do you think?" ”。
The burly and majestic General Wang cleared his throat and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the king only has Fan Yi at this time, and we will kill Fan Yi in the name of Qingjun's side, the king is alone, and he should not be able to set off the storm."
Just when a few people were gossiping and discussing, the Queen Mother, who was confined in the harem of Xianyang, was unwilling to be imprisoned, and secretly sent her cronies to the mansion of the upper doctor.
The people sent by Fan Yi to monitor reported the actions of the Empress Dowager and all the people in the Shangdafu interest group to the King of Qin and Fan Yi in real time.
King Qin smiled slightly, and sent someone to secretly summon Zheng Ping, who was then the Xianyang Order, into the palace.
At the beginning of June, the wind and sun were beautiful, and the people in the city also took to the streets in twos and threes, as usual.
Xianyang seems to be calm on the surface, but the undercurrent behind it is surging, which is destined to make it difficult for many people to sleep and eat.
Xun Wuwu and a few people were about to leave, but when they walked to the east gate, they were stopped by the officers and soldiers guarding the city, so that they would not be allowed to go out, only that the whole city was under martial law, and no one was allowed to leave Xianyang.
Meng Ziyu frowned and whispered in Xun Wuwu's ear: "Brother Wuwu, what's the matter?" ”。
Xun Wuwu shook his head and said, "Let's go back to the post station first!" ”
As soon as a few people walked to the door of the post station, they saw Fan Yi standing straight at the door of the post station. When he saw a few people, he greeted him with a smile and said, "Brother Wuwu, I'm really embarrassed, I forgot to tell you."
Xun Wuwu said: "Brother Fan, what do you mean? ”
"Don't hide it, brother, there has been a change in the court recently, so I will be wronged to stay here for a few more days" Fan Yi bowed.
Xun Wuwu thought thoughtfully, nodded after a moment and said, "This is all what Brother Fan meant, right?" ”。
Fan Yi smiled, waved his hand sideways and said, "Everyone, please inside, let me explain to you slowly."
Several people walked into the post station and sat down in a secluded room, Fan Yi poured wine for everyone, and said in a low voice: "It's really helpless to snub everyone, please don't blame you."
Xun Wuwu already understood what Fan Yi meant by the change in the court. After drinking the wine in the cup, he said meaningfully: "I'm afraid that from now on, the Qin State will raise troops on a large scale, right?" ”。
Mencius bowed his head and was silent, thoughtful.
Li Tonggu looked at Fan Yi with a smile on his face, and then at his husband, and said inexplicably: "Sir, what happened?" ”。
Xun Wuwu smiled slightly, stood up and walked to the window, looked at a green locust tree outside the window, and asked, "Brother Fan, how can the Qin State be in power?" What is a soldier? ”。
"The law of the Shang monarch can be the outline of political affairs, as for the soldiers, follow the old system, clarify the law, and strictly enforce military discipline, is it okay?" Fan Yi looked up at Xun Wuwu's back, and said with a straight face.
"The decree is the government and the people's police, and the policy of the merchant is the foundation of strengthening Qin, and the key to consolidating Qin should be a clear law, but the Qin State will make all the people suffer" Xun Wuwu's voice was worried.
Han Shaoqing stood up abruptly, looked at Fan Yi and said, "Sir, do you know where my senior brother's mausoleum is?" ”。
Fan Yi was stunned for a moment, and then puzzled: "Who is your senior brother?" ”
"Shang Martingale ......"
"Are you a disciple of the Legalists?" Fan Yi was surprised.
Han Shaoqing nodded, his eyes full of sadness. After so many years, he thought that no one would remember the senior brother anymore, but today he understood the meaning behind the senior brother knowing that he would die.
As Master said, life is in the world, and what you want to live is what you want and what you want to die.
Although the senior brother has died and his soul has been destroyed, his thoughts are still respected, isn't this exactly what death deserves? Therefore, he decided to go to the grave of the elder brother to pay respects.
"Shang Jun is a god in the Qin Kingdom, although he is still glorious in death, but I have something to do recently, I will accompany you in a few days, can I?" Fan Yi asked.
"Shaoqing, this matter can be discussed later, in a few days we will go together to worship your senior brother" Xun Wuwu also dissuaded.
Han Shaoqing turned around and walked out of the room.
"Brother Fan, you can rest assured, we won't leave for the time being, you just have to go and do your business, but I have a reluctant request, I don't know if it's okay?" Xun Wuwu turned around and walked in front of Fan Yi and stared at Fan Yi seriously.
Fan Yi smiled: "Brother worry-free, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
"I want to meet Xiong Wan, and I also ask Brother Fan to show to King Qin on my behalf" Xun Wuwu was awe-inspiring, not like a joke.
