Chapter 801: Reasons for Not Surrendering
Chapter 801 Reasons for Not Surrendering
After the public trial, Qin An and the others returned to the inn.
Zhao Xie did not go back, but went to arrange business matters.
And the merchants and some nobles who paid attention to Zhao Xie all sent people to follow him, and even some nobles and businessmen asked to see him in person, but Qin An would not care about these things.
Wei Zheng saw that his younger brother Wei Qi was not killed, but was only imprisoned for three years, and he breathed a sigh of relief for this, and showed gratitude to Qin An.
He ignored Wei Qi and came directly to the inn.
At first, he refused to see Qin An because of hatred, but today he saw Qin An because of his gratitude.
For Wei Zheng, this is to repay kindness and revenge.
When Qin An and the others returned to the inn, Wei Zheng also came back with them.
After returning to the inn, Meng Yi was the first to speak, "Sir is really merciful, and he has given such a light sentence to the assassin who assassinated him."
When Wei Zheng heard this, he frowned slightly, and said in his heart, "Does this kid want Wei Qi to die before he is willing?"
Qin An immediately said, "This is not my mercy, but the mercy of the law, you used to be a court lieutenant and are familiar with the laws of Great Qin, but that was the previous Qin law.
You don't know much about the new Qin Law, not only you, but I'm afraid no one in the world understands it.
Only those who enforce the law and those who break the law will become familiar with the new laws.
I should suggest that the new laws of Great Qin be printed as a book, and then each person should give one copy, but it is not realistic to send one, but it can be sold as a printed book, and some people can study it if they are interested.
Because the law is not 100% perfect, there must be loopholes.
Even in the future, there will still be many people who study the law and end up taking advantage of the loopholes in the law to do evil.
We call this kind of thing a sideball.
This kind of thing is on the edge of the law, you say you break the law, he doesn't break the law, you say you don't break the law, but he is a little bit on the side of the law."
Meng Yi said: "In this case, arrest these people and beat them up directly to ensure that those who escape will not commit it again."
Ganro said, "Yes, such a person is the most hateful, and he is provoking the law, and he is worthy of death."
Zhang Liang shook his head and said, "Such a person deserves to die, so wouldn't the person who really broke the law have to be divided into five horses?"
Gan Luo frowned slightly, he felt that he had been provoked by someone else.
Qin An said, "That's right, we can only say that there are loopholes in our laws, so after the loopholes are discovered. Depending on whether the situation is serious, it is necessary to patch the vulnerability in a timely manner.
Well, now is not the time to talk about this, there are guests coming today, and we should greet them first."
Only then did everyone realize that Wei Zheng had also followed.
According to the eyes of the imperial court, Wei Zheng is actually an ordinary person, and Ying Zheng has already demoted all the people of the royal family to commoners.
But in the eyes of the remnants of Wei, Wei Zheng is the king of Wei, because the anti-Qin forces need to have a leader, otherwise the anti-Qin forces will be a mess of scattered sand.
In fact, Wei Zheng was forcibly pushed out to be the king of Wei, although he also wanted to be this Wei Zheng in his heart, but he wanted the upright Wei king of Wei instead of the Wei king of Wei.
Seeing that everyone was focusing on him, Wei Zheng immediately stepped forward and saluted everyone, "Wei Zheng has seen the emperor and all the lords."
Qin An smiled and said, "Wei Zheng, this is not the place to talk, why don't you go to my room." Gao Yue, let's come with everyone."
Everyone in Qin An's mouth refers to Zhang Liang, Meng Yi and Ganluo.
"Everything is subject to the emperor's arrangement." Wei Zheng said.
"You don't need to call me Emperor, just call me Sir." Qin An said.
"Sir." Wei Zheng immediately changed his mind.
Qin An was very satisfied with this, and also saw that Wei Zheng was a very decisive person.
Such a person is a material for doing great things, if Wei Zheng is not because of the title of King of Wei, if he does not live in the aristocratic circle, if he knows the people
suffering, then he may become Liu Bang's opponent.
Everyone soon came to Qin An's room.
Everyone sat at the same table, and there was a round table in the room, which was invented by Qin An, but there were many people who imitated it, and the imperial court did not care about this matter.
Because this is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people.
Qin An poured a cup of tea for each of them, and the tea leaves and tea sets were all brought by Qin An.
The purpose is to make these tea sets can brew tea leaves at all times, and if the tea sets are soaked for a long time, tea stains will be formed, and with tea stains, even if you don't make tea in the future, you can drink the taste of tea directly by pouring boiled water.
At the same time, Qin An himself can drink tea at all times, killing two birds with one stone.
"Thank you, sir." Wei Zheng picked up the teacup and took a sip slightly, the taste was slightly bitter, and then it was a little sweet, the real bitter first and then sweet, he immediately fell in love with this tea.
"I once passed by Xianyang City and heard about this tea, but I never had the opportunity to taste it.
I didn't expect to have the opportunity to taste it today, thank you so much, sir." Gao Yue on the side said.
Qin An smiled: "There's no way, the supply exceeds demand, and every time there is a product, it is robbed. However, rest assured, I have been looking for new tea leaves all over the country, and in less than ten years, everyone in the world will be able to drink tea.
Of course, the quality is different, and the price is also different.
But now is not the time to talk about tea, shouldn't we talk about the surrender of the anti-Qin forces in Wei now?"
Everyone's eyes were on Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, do you know why I am reluctant to surrender?"
"I believe it's because of the hatred of destroying the country." Qin An said, "To put it bluntly, the remnants of your Six Kingdoms are the royal families of the Six Kingdoms, or the anti-Qin forces composed of nobles and some ministers.
Your purpose is to restore your country, to take revenge, and you have not thought about anything else." Qin An said.
"Not bad." Wei Zheng replied, "I was elected by everyone as the king of Wei, and I was also the general of Wei, commanding the remaining troops.
And the reason for this is to avenge the destruction of the country, when the Qin army flooded the city of Daliang, the people in the city were flooded by countless people, and there were voices of grief everywhere.
Now in Daliang City, not only me, but also hundreds of people hate Daqin very much, and if you ask me to surrender, I will never be able to do it."
Qin An sighed and said, "It's hard to say about this matter, because it's a national enemy and a family hatred. I make you surrender, very selfish.
But as a person of the next generation, I have to remind you that it is time for retribution.
Although Qin annihilated the Six Kingdoms, he committed countless killings.
However, from more than 100 princes in the Spring and Autumn Period, only seven remained in the end, and the Seven Kingdoms existed for more than 200 years, and according to later generations, it should be 254 years.
During this period, there were many wars between the Seven Kingdoms, and the death toll was innumerable, and more than two million people were able to be examined in later generations.
When it comes to hatred, in fact, there is hatred among the seven nations. It's just that in the end, the Qin State destroyed the Six Kingdoms, and all the hatred was transferred to the Qin State."
