On the high platform, the second emperor sitting on the throne supported his chin with one hand, tilting his head and waiting.

Wei Zhang's forehead was sweaty, his mind was dizzy, his vision was blurred, his throat kept moving up and down, and he swallowed as if it would never end.

His hands trembled slightly, and the afterimage of the letters written on three sheets of yellow paper shook out.

He already had a guess in his mind, but he couldn't believe it was true.

Faint gentleman, no! Your Majesty! Are you really willing to let my Wei family live?

The old head of the Wei family didn't believe it, rebellions had always been clan extermination, and the crime was unforgivable, but the second emperor didn't seem to need to coax him.

In order to ask for 20,000 stone grain?

After the three clans of Wei and Zhang were razed, the assets of his Wei family were confiscated and all belonged to the second emperor.

Cat and mouse, watch him Wei Zhang struggle before he dies?

With the usual temperament of the second emperor, this may be huge, and Wei Zhang's tendency is this reason.

He wanted to hold his chest high, continue to be as powerful and unyielding as his ancestors, and angrily reprimanded the faint king.

Whenever he wants to be a broken jade rather than a complete tile, and be born as a human being, he is stupid and cannot be humiliated.

The tall mansion, the green water of the jade bridge, the fiefdom outside the city, the official lord on the head, and even the ugly old wife Liu who was entangled with the handsome young man all appeared in front of his eyes one by one.

He knelt down slowly, forgetting that the second emperor didn't like to kneel the most.

"Wei Zhang, I am willing, thank Your Majesty for your grace."

The head hung down and slammed into the dan mound.

He knew that he was ugly at the moment, but what made him feel worried was not the ugliness, but the fate of the Wei family.

Your Majesty, can you really forgive the great sin of treason?

"A fine of 5,000 stones, I said, I don't like to kneel."

At the beginning of the construction of the Xianyang Palace, the high platform built used the principle of echo wall.

As long as it is on the high platform, the sound will be amplified, and the multiple echoes will be stacked together in an instant to produce a solemnity, which sounds like heavenly sounds.

For Wei Zhang, what he heard was the real Tianyin!

The old tears fell, and he got up from the ground with his hands and feet, stretched his arms straight to the end, and bent his waist ninety degrees.

"Yui!"

If you cry, you can't hide your cry.

Other people, what will happen to other families in the future, Wei Zhang doesn't know, and he can't control it.

But as long as he Wei Zhang lives for a day, the Wei family will always only recognize one emperor, and the second emperor will become a thief.

Who dares to say in front of him that the second emperor is a faint king, he doesn't want this old life, but he also has to go up and smoke his mouth!

What deer? Blind?

Then his mother's is clearly a horse! Maxima! Peerless Pony!

"Add another 5,000 stones, I don't like to listen to 'only' response, and I will say 'no' when I should in the future."

The second emperor never said that he was tired of Weixinuo in Xianyang, and the court meeting was held three times, and each time the courtiers and eunuchs responded to the voice, and there was no problem.

Only this time there was a problem with Wei Zhang.

The highest salary of the Qin State is 2,000 stones, and the Shangqing, Xiangbang, and Guowei are all like this.

Five thousand stones is a person who has been an official in the Qin State and has achieved the top, and he can get two and a half years of money.

Add the 25,000 stone you were fined before, and it is 30,000 stone.

Fifteen years of the highest Qin State is not much, and the Wei family, an old family, is also hurting to take it out.

"No!"

Wei Zhang deserves to be fast, and he deserves to be willing.

He raised his head, tears flowed, snot flowed, and his embarrassed appearance was exposed in front of his colleagues in the court, but he didn't bother to wipe it clean.

"The old minister has repeatedly violated the Sacred Heart, and his sins are heavy, and he will punish himself with 20,000 stones! A total of 50,000 koku! Please fill the treasury!

His voice was hoarse, and his crying was thick and full of gratitude.

"Fifty thousand stones, Duke Wei really understands the righteousness, and even gave up his family for the sake of the Qin State. Your Wei family took out 50,000 stones, except for a Xianyang mansion and fiefdom, there is nothing left. ”

Ying Chengcheng changed his position.

The elbow of his left hand rests on the armrest, the palm of his hand supports his head, and his right hand pulls out a thick letter from the desk.

"Just 40,000 stones, and the 10,000 stones are the heart. The first king once said that heroes can't retreat with their whole body, and Yingzheng has no face to stand in the world. Now that the king is dead, I am the emperor of the faint king, and I am not worthy of the throne, and there are thirteen rebels and rebellions on the throne. I have no choice but to destroy the clan, and I can't ask the rest of you to live in tight clothes and food. You are all my ministers of the Great Qin Humerus, the Qin State cannot live without you, and I cannot do without you. ”

Wei Zhang cried loudly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

The ministers did not show a look of ridicule.

They looked at the letters that the second emperor read at random, and their palms were sweating, and they didn't know if they had written it themselves.

Imperial Doctor Cai Ze tightened his clothes, sweating on his body, and his heart was cold.

This is punishment food, it is clearly buying life food! Kneeling and making promises are all a ladder for delivering food.

His Majesty's scheming in this dynasty is heavier than that of King Qin Zhaoxiang, this imperial historian is not easy to be, and he needs to find a reason to resign.

Fu Zikang, who governed Su Nei, gave birth to an abacus in his mind, closed his eyes, and calculated how much food he could eat this time.

He was not at all worried that these nobles would not pay the grain, and even expected that the nobles would not pay it.

If you don't pay the grain, you will be punished, and you will have more food to steal the family.

Xiangbang Lu Buwei, who was wearing a human skin mask, covered his mouth with his sleeves and pursed his lips and chuckled.

The sleeves were taken down, and he looked serious again.

Knowing that the Wei family's family assets are 50,000 stones, you can know the wealth of other families, and no one dares to risk the extinction of the clan to bet on whether the family knows their own family background.

Keep 10,000 stones for yourself, and take out the rest to atone for the great sin of rebellion.

Sweet jujubes are used together, and the grain is collected and the hearts of the people are collected.

In this transaction, Chan'er made a lot of money.

Puff puff ~

It's like a dumpling, most of the Qin ministers in the hall left the table, stood by the side of the case and knelt down together, grabbing the ground with their heads.

The second emperor frowned, and slammed the letter on the case.

"Didn't I say that I didn't like to kneel, but that you were deliberately demonstrating to me? Knowing the law and breaking the law, the crime will be increased by one degree, and it should be punished heavily! ”

The ministers were silent for a moment.

"The old minister offended Your Majesty! Self-imposed penalty of 33,000 stones! ”

"If you anger Your Majesty, you will be unforgivable for your sin, and you will be punished with 28,000 stones!"

"Weichen wants His Majesty to be angry and punish himself with 7,000 stones!"

The voice of the court of Xianyang Hall is everywhere and endures for a long time.

Zhang Han lowered his head and removed the glint in his eyes.

If it is the first emperor, there should be zero tolerance for rebellion and kill him.

But if the first emperor is in power, where does anyone dare to write honesty to the prince?

His Majesty's clan exterminated the stubborn thirteenth family, a typical example on the tree, and then opened the net, asking the rest of the people to atone for their sins.

Wei has it, and En has it.

With both grace and might, these pardoned people escaped death and did not dare to embarrass His Majesty again.

The grain has been returned, the situation has not been turbulent, and everyone must be grateful to His Majesty for the grace of not killing.

This kind of means is the means that the Great Qin Emperor should have, and it is the master of my Zhang Han.

The ministers shouted for a while before stopping, and Ying Chengcheng glanced at the eunuch who was writing on the side of him.

The pen-wielding eunuch nodded, indicating that he had written it down.

Ying Chengcheng nodded in satisfaction.

"Bring the fire ding."

The pen-wielding eunuch bowed slightly.

"Yui."

The corners of Ying Cheng's eyes slanted.

"Say they didn't say you? Do you have an endless supply of food at home? ”

The eunuch looked crying and asked for mercy repeatedly.

Some time ago, these families collected a lot of grain from the state treasury, and the small ones accumulated thousands of stones, and the big ones accumulated tens of thousands.

He is a castrated person, crippled, he doesn't even have a home, and he has no wealth, where does he get food? Why is it so forgetful that you don't remember what Your Majesty just said?

Ying Cheng snorted.

"Bring the fire ding."

"No!"

The eight Lang officials lifted the big tripod in the southeast corner and put it in the center of the court hall with a hum.

The honeycomb coal in Dingzhong continued to burn, and it was all red, and the hall became more and more hot.

The second emperor walked down from the high platform again, and the two eunuchs who brought the letters carried them to the side of Huoding.

The second emperor grabbed a handful of letters and threw them into the ding, and orange flames rose.

Most of the ministers looked relieved and took a big breath.

Only a few people showed disappointment and regret.

Zhou Qingchen smacked his lips unsatisfied, he still thought that this time the power of the Qin State was reshuffled, and he could seize the opportunity to soar into the sky.

It's a pity that this fire has continued the life of the family, and his Zhou family has to wait a little longer.

The loss of faith continues, and the flames continue.

The second emperor spoke softly beside the flames, losing the blessing of the high platform, and the voice was less solemn and more human.

"You wait, or you wait for your ancestors, you have made great contributions to Qin, so you can stand here, I remember this kindness. From this day on, the kindness of some families is gone. If you want to gain a foothold in the court, you have to do things. The corpse is a vegetarian person, first Wang Yun, I won't allow it! The capable go up, the mediocre go down, can you have any objections? ”

Prime Minister Zuo was just about to speak, but a hoarse cry sounded first.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Wei Zhang shouted loudly.

didn't have time to curse and was robbed of the opportunity, Zhou Qingchen followed closely and was about to shout twice, and there was an old voice to take the lead.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The right prime minister, Feng Quji, looked at the second emperor with a pious face, as if he was on a pilgrimage.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The depressed Zuo Xiang shouted out the third.

Subsequently, the tsunami-like waves of the mountains were surging and boiling in the Xianyang Palace, and the sound waves were higher than one wave.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The second emperor kept throwing letters into the fire, and the flames that should have been getting stronger and stronger were suppressed by the voices of the ministers, shaking and jumping, unable to rise.

Louder and louder waves poured out of the Xianyang Palace, rushed into the sky, surging and slapping, driving away the moon rabbit.

The golden crow rises in the east, and the dawn shines on the black tile on the top of the Xianyang Palace, crossing a layer of golden light.

It's dawn.

The sun shrouded the land, and smoke rose from every house.

With honeycomb coal for five coins and one stone, Qianshou no longer eats cold meals because of saving burning materials such as dead branches and leaves.

Drink a sip of rice porridge without corn, and the hot water with soot runs down the throat and stomach, warm and dry.

Their clothes were tattered, their nails were covered with black dirt, and their bodies were covered with soot, and the dirty people sighed in satisfaction and touched their shriveled bellies.

I thought it would be nice if I did it every winter in the future.

The longer this majesty sits, the better.

Those people under the rule of saints in ancient times, did they have honeycomb coal in winter? Can you drink hot porridge? Your Majesty is more holy than a saint!

At the end of January, the prestige of the two emperors reached its peak in both the government and the opposition.

The dynasty took the two emperors as kings, and the ministers served to death.

The two emperors of Ye Feng are holy, and the people build a shrine.

Winter is coming to an end, January 30.

Ying Chengcheng discussed matters with Ren Huan, Tu Sui, Zhao Tuo and other generals in the Yizheng Palace.

In January, Xianyang was very stable, but chaos was frequent in various places, and wars were blooming everywhere.

The second emperor summoned all kinds of people almost every day to discuss state affairs in the council hall.

The teenager Zhao Tuo smashed a fist on Zhao Di.

"Zhang Chu started in Han, and after occupying Chen County, he expanded eastward, and has been far away from Guanzhong, so it is not easy to chase in winter. Zhao borders Guanzhong, so even dare to join in the excitement to restore the country! Then hit! ”

The young and vigorous young general's eyes are like copper bells, and he can't wait to immediately order his troops and horses to attack him.

Ren Huan and Tu Sui, who are older and should be much more mature, did not stop Zhao Tuo, but looked deeply convinced.

Ninety-nine percent of all the generals who have been called for a small discussion these days have this attitude.

There are a few people who are particularly eager for meritorious service, and they made a military order on the spot, and they will lead 200,000 soldiers and horses out of the Han Valley, sweep the world, and return to a Langlang Qin State.

Ying Cheng is speechless, the winter battle is so easy to fight? Did you fly there? People stretch their necks for you to chop?

"This cold winter wax moon, the march is difficult, the battle is not easy, how do you solve it?"

"Your Majesty thinks we shouldn't send troops, and so do the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. At this time, sending troops is a surprise soldier, and you can win by surprise. It is not only difficult for us to fight in winter, but it is also not easy for those remnants of the Six Nations to fight. But this year, we have been recruiting and training troops for the first time in winter, and our sons and daughters are more accustomed to fighting in winter than those who are rebellious, and they will not lose in bare-handed combat. Coupled with the fact that we are well-armed and well-armed, and we have sufficient food and grass, how can we be invincible? ”

Ying Cheng was even more speechless.

The big advantage that Lao Tzu made is not for you to waste, when Lao Tzu can't fight, right?

If you can be a general in the Qin State, there is no one who can't fight, everyone knows that the Winter Expedition, if you win, it must be a miserable victory, and the soldiers who come back alive with them can live five achievements.

It's just that in the face of low-hanging fruit military exploits, they ignore these.

One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and compared with their knighthood treatment, the lives of soldiers are not worth pity.

In one winter, what strong army can those six countries that have lost their countries and can only survive and develop secretly?

Zhang Chu is now known as the 130,000 army, and most of the soldiers are still holding farm tools.

Not to mention armor, it's good to be able to wear a whole outfit.

This information has made many Qin generals red-eyed, and there is no better battle to fight and better military feats than this.

Compared with these generals, the young general Zhao Tuo at least has a little brains and knows how to choose the nearest Zhao Di to fight.

Ying Cheng's face sank, and he had higher expectations for Zhao Tuo.

In history, Zhao Tuo expeditioned to Baiyue, established himself as the king, established the Nanyue Kingdom, and was called the Wuwang of Nanyue.

"The battle is definitely going to be fought, but not now."

As soon as he said a word, the door knocked softly, and someone knocked on the door and invited him in.

"Enter."

The door opened, and a touch of beauty filled the room.

The person outside the door was dressed in a white fox coat, with beautiful long hair and white fox reflecting each other, the twin peaks were quite beautiful, and the figure was slender.

Absolutely beautiful, with a touch of extremely obvious heroism, heroic posture is greater than charming.

Lang Zhongling, Yue Nu.

Ren Huan, Tu Sui, and Zhao Tuo hurriedly avoided their eyes, not daring to look more.

This woman is ranked in the ninth king, but she is not afraid of them as a general, but who doesn't know that this woman is His Majesty's woman?

Yue Nu hurriedly walked and whispered softly in the ear of the second emperor.

After hearing this, the second emperor looked as usual, and turned his head to the three people:

"That's it for today."

The three of them were unwilling, they just came, they had only sat for less than a quarter of an hour, and the tea was not cold, so they were leaving?

But knowing that the second emperor was a man of the same temperament, he had no choice but to retire.

After the three of them left, the second emperor also left the palace immediately, and the Yue women accompanied him.

Yue Nu only said four words - Xunzi left the house!
