Chapter 125: The Mourning Family Has a Bold Idea
With Fan Yuzhi being escorted back to Xianyang City, the Cheng Chan rebellion case officially kicked off, and how to deal with the rebels, the people involved in the case, etc., all needed to come up with a safe disposal plan, so all the important ministers of the Qin State gathered in Zhangtai Palace to discuss the matter together.
The people at the head are naturally a group of powerful ministers headed by Lü Buwei, and Changpingjun, Changwenjun, Yangquanjun and others are naturally also listed.
Ying Zheng, dressed in a dark robe, sat on the throne, and the Queen Mother Zhao Ji listened to the government with a curtain hanging on the side.
The current rulers of the Qin State were all present,
Ying Zheng's eyes were lowered, and he looked down at the ministers below with an indifferent expression, and took the lead in breaking the oppressive and dull atmosphere in the hall, and said slowly: "Chang'an Jun has died in the world, and the rebels have all surrendered, what do you think about what to do with them now?"
"The minister thinks that this matter should be severely punished to set an example!"
Lü Buwei's arms hung slightly, and his wrinkled old face changed without expression, as if he was expounding a fact: "According to Qin law, anyone involved in this case should be beheaded."
"According to Xiangguo's words, all the military officers and officials involved in this case will be beheaded?"
Ying Zheng's eyes condensed slightly, stared at Lu Buwei, and said in a deep voice.
Lu Buwei's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded in response: "That's what the minister meant, this rebellion of Chang'an Jun can actually incite nearly 100,000 people, if it is not dealt with by thunderous means, it will inevitably damage the majesty of the king, and even the flesh and blood brothers may follow him in the future."
As his words fell, all the ministers around him remained silent, and none of them stepped forward to object.
Ying Zheng saw all this in his eyes, his palm hidden in the cuff clenched involuntarily, his face was slightly gloomy, and he said in a condensed voice: "What if there is something else hidden in this matter?"
"What's going on?"
Lu Buwei's eyes moved slightly, his face showed a look of consternation very cooperatively, looked at Ying Zheng, and asked, "Could it be that the king personally interrogated Fan Yuzhi yesterday and asked what happened?"
"Cheng Cheng *** gave Fan Yuzhi a letter before, and he explained all the causes and consequences of this incident, and he confessed to the betrayal of Qin, but this matter was not caused by him alone, he himself was also affected by a letter, this letter appeared very strangely, and it was sent to the commander's camp unknowingly.
The content is even more unbearable, very different from the text, and after that, Cheng Chan was assassinated."
Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "The assassin did something to Cheng Chan before he died, causing him to lose his mind for a short time, and this rebellion happened!"
There was a pause.
He continued with a grim expression, "In the final analysis, Chang'an Jun Chengcheng is also a victim of this incident!"
A terrifying light flashed in Lu Buwei's eyes, his brows were tightly locked, and he indifferently swept the ministers present, guessing in his heart the source of the letter, and being able to send this letter to Cheng Chan unknowingly, this person must be in a high position in the Qin State, and he also has power in the army.
He didn't expect that there were other people hidden behind this matter, and now that the truth has been revealed, the originally unreasonable thing has instantly become reasonable.
It is no wonder that Chang'an Juncheng would rashly launch this rebellion, everything originated from a coincidence.
Sure enough, it's troublesome...... Changping Jun was stunned in his heart, but his face showed a touch of surprise, and he looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief, as if he didn't know anything about this matter, and then stepped forward angrily, and said, "There is such an inside story! The minister thought that this matter should be investigated strictly, and that this letter and this assassination needed to find an answer more than this rebellion. ….
Chang'an Jun Cheng is my son of Great Qin.
The prince of a dignified country was calculated by others, not to mention that he lost his life, and even made the Qin State a laughing stock of the Six Kingdoms, this matter must be investigated to the end, and see if He Xiaoxiao did it!"
He said it with righteous indignation, and it was extremely rare to show a trace of indignation on his face, as if he had been insulted.
There is a saying about it.
If you want to deceive people, you first have to deceive yourself.
At this moment, Changping Jun felt that he was an innocent person, and as Cheng Cheng's elder, he had the obligation to seek justice for his juniors!
Lü Buwei looked at Changping who jumped out
Jun, he didn't open his mouth to refute.
Because he was also curious about who the letter came from, and what was the other party trying to do?
He killed Cheng Chan because the other party's hand was stretched too long, and he actually had a crooked mind about military power, and he had to use this to teach Ying Zheng a lesson!
The other party's letter is to pull Cheng Chan to the opposite side of Ying Zheng, if he hadn't killed Cheng Chan this time, maybe Cheng Chan would really become an uncertain factor, and it would bring *** trouble to Ying Zheng and even Qin State in the future, and at that time, it may not be comparable to the current rebellion.
"This is also the meaning of the widow, there are such people with ulterior motives hidden in the Qin State, it must be investigated!"
Ying Zheng nodded in agreement, then looked at Lu Buwei and asked, "What do you think of Xiang Guo?"
Lu Buwei retracted his gaze, paused, and said slowly: "The investigation naturally has to be investigated, but this matter is too wide-ranging, even if it is investigated, there will be no results for a while, in contrast, how to deal with the rebels is the primary issue, and their guilt is not something that can be cleared with an inside word!"
"There is a reason for everything, how can it be generalized."
Ying Zheng frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Chang'an Jun Chengcheng has already paid for this, if he beheads tens of thousands more...... Don't you think it's too much?"
He was reluctant to continue killing, especially when Cheng Chan explained everything in the letter, which made him lose so much murderous intent towards Fan Yuqi and others.
"This loss is the beginning of the loss of the Qin State!"
Lu Buwei said indifferently.
Ying Zheng's face was solemn, he was a little unable to withstand Lu Buwei who had not yet been crowned pro-government, in the final analysis, there were too few people behind him, and now Chang'an Jun Cheng was gone, and above this court, there was not even a person to speak for him, and he couldn't help but look at the queen mother beside him.
At this moment, Changping Jun spoke again, "The minister also thinks that this matter should end here!"
"What does Changping-kun mean by this?"
Lu Buwei looked at Changping Jun with both eyes, and his tone was a little aggravated.
Changping Jun has the support of the Empress Dowager Huayang in the Qin State, and he is surrounded by Chu forces, which are deeply rooted in the Qin State and have a lot of power.
"What Lord Xiangguo said is reasonable, this loss, of course, the Qin State has lost it, but after all, this Chang'anjun incident happened for a reason, and it was calculated by the small people, Fan Yuqi and others are even more participants in this matter, if they are all beheaded, it seems to maintain the prestige of the king, but in fact, they fall into the trap of others and reduce the national strength of Qin.
Besides, once they are all beheaded, how can this matter be investigated?"
Changping Jun first affirmed Lu Buwei's words, and then moved out his own thoughts, with a look of thinking about the Qin State, which made people unable to find the slightest fault. ….
He said with a serious expression: "This matter must be investigated to the end and give Chang An Jun an explanation!"
"What Changping Jun said is reasonable, and the minister seconded it!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
As Changping Jun took the lead, five or six people walked out behind him one after another to stand in line for Changping Jun.
When Ying Zheng saw this scene, he immediately felt a lot more confident, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, this matter will end here, Fan Yuqi and others have cut off all their titles, kept their positions, and made meritorious contributions to their crimes, as for the origin of the letter and the assassination, Changping Jun will be in charge of the investigation."
"Commandment!"
Changping Jun replied.
Lu Buwei didn't object, he looked at Changpingjun, and was very curious if Changpingjun wanted to jump out and wrestle with him
That's when it happened.
The Queen Mother Zhao Ji, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "The mourning family wants to reward Gongzi Jia as the Marquis of Changxin, and give Shanyang Land, you happen to be here today, can you talk about this matter?"
One word stirred up a thousand waves.
As the words of the Queen Mother Zhao Ji fell, the atmosphere that had originally come to an end instantly froze, and everyone looked at Zhao Ji in surprise.
Surprised by what Zhao Ji said, he wondered if his ears were hallucinating.
Even Ying Zheng blinked, looked at his queen mother in disbelief, and couldn't help but ask, "How could the queen mother have such an idea?"
"Male
Zijia is rich in learning and five cars, talented and knowledgeable, and what is even more rare is that he is virtuous and prudent, and can set an example for the world, in recent times he has been serving by the side of the mourning family, and the mourning family feels more and more that this son is extraordinary, he is now in Qin, and the mourning family can't bear to bury him, so he has this idea."
Zhao Ji gave an explanation in a flat tone, and at the same time, the charming phoenix eyes glanced at Lu Buwei, who had a stiff face.
The reason is that it doesn't matter if it's true or not, the important thing is that she wants to earn an identity for her man, and it is no less than Lu Buwei's identity.
Lü Buwei and the merchants were all able to rank among the Marquis of Qin State.
Why can't Zhao Jia ?!.
