Chapter 15: Kong Er Makes a Move
Kong Eryin said testimoniously, his eyes were full of killing intent, his figure flashed, and he quickly disappeared.
.......
On the official road outside the south gate of the capital of Qin, the carriage was moving slowly, and a young man was sitting in the carriage.
The man is seventeen or eighteen years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and incomparable, and his whole body is full of a strong kingly domineering, which makes people feel awe-inspiring, this person is the crown prince of Great Qin, Qin Fan.
"Your Highness!"
Suddenly, the panicked voices of the guards sounded outside the carriage, followed by a jumble of footsteps.
Qin Fan lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw dozens of black-clothed masked assassins outside the carriage rushing out, slashing towards the carriage with long knives in hand, obviously premeditated.
Qin Fan's face changed suddenly, he didn't expect Kong Er to attack him at all, and he used such despicable means!
However, Qin Fan was also a person who had experienced the wind and waves, so he quickly calmed down and said coldly: "Kong Er, you are really despicable enough, you actually play such a trick!" ”
Qin Fan knew that he was afraid that there would be more than one bad luck today, and since Kong Er dared to make a move, he must be fully prepared, otherwise he would definitely not risk making a move on him.
"Haha, what about being mean, if I can kill you, I'm the winner!"
There was a burst of rampant laughter, and an old man galloped towards the carriage with a long knife in his hand.
Qin Fan snorted coldly, took out a dagger from his arms, and jumped out of the carriage in an instant.
Poof!
The sound of a long knife cutting through flesh and blood suddenly sounded.
The smile on the old man's face froze, and he looked down in disbelief at the dagger inserted into his chest, his pupils dilated, his mouth opened, and blood gushed out, falling in a pool of blood.
"Kill him!"
Seeing this, the remaining assassins roared angrily, brandishing the long knives in their hands and attacking towards Qin Fan.
Qin Fan snorted coldly, took out a flintlock pistol from his boots, pulled the trigger, and banged it......
Nine buckshot bullets whizzed out in a row, drawing an arc in the air, enveloping the black-clad assassins.
Two muffled gunshots rang out, and the assassins were shot through the head and their bodies fell to the ground.
"Hiss~!"
Looking at the many dead assassins, Qin Fan couldn't help but take a breath.
Nima!
What the hell is this weapon, it can take people's lives when it comes out of flames!
After Qin Fan loaded the musket, he immediately put it away, this is a treasure, if it leaks out, it will definitely lead to death.
"Your Highness, are you alright?" A soldier hurried over and asked with concern, having hurried over after hearing the commotion here.
Qin Fan shook his head and said, "It's okay, let's get out of here quickly!" ”
..........
At night, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce.
The imperial capital of the Qin State, the imperial palace.
In the Imperial Garden, the lights are bright, and hundreds of officials are present here.
The Qin Emperor of the Qin State was high on the dragon chair, wearing a golden robe, majestic and solemn.
Underneath the dragon chair, there are four desks, each with four sets of scrolls.
On the left is the method of controlling the flood and the reduction of grain production, and on the right is the method of controlling the plague, both of which came from Qin Fan.
"Your Majesty, this time the flood broke out, the people suffered, Weichen thinks that the flood problem should be solved immediately, and at the same time the people should be given porridge and help!" An old minister stood up and said.
"Hmm." Emperor Qin nodded and glanced approvingly at the old minister.
"Your Majesty, the minister suggests that the blockade be lifted immediately." Another veteran said: "Because the outbreak of the flood has caused public outrage.
If the blockade continues, it will only make the people's resentment boil, and when the time comes, I am afraid that not only will not solve the problem of flooding, but will cause a catastrophe! ”
After pondering for a while, Emperor Qin nodded in agreement, after all, this outbreak of flooding was due to his negligence, which caused the people to suffer from flooding.
Now, if you continue to insist on your own opinion, I am afraid that it will cause a popular uprising, and then the Qin State will definitely fall into a dangerous situation.
"Spread my will, lift the blockade!" Emperor Qin immediately said that this blockade of the flood was his mistake, and if it was not handled properly, it would inevitably become a hidden danger.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
A guard next to him answered, turned and ran out.
"Your Majesty, has the cause of this flood outbreak been clarified?" At this time, a minister came out and asked respectfully.
"Haven't found out yet!"
Emperor Qin sighed and said, "This outbreak of floods is very similar to the original flood, but it is a little different.
Although the scale of the flood was large, it was short-lived, but this time, the flood lasted for several days and even tended to expand, which is really rare. ”
Hearing this, the faces of many Wenchen changed, this flood has lasted for so long, it is definitely not an ordinary event.
The royal family of Qin is in charge of the military power of the world and commands an army of millions, but this does not mean that the royal family of Qin can be unscrupulous.
Everyone has different thoughts, some are worried, some are gloating, some are indifferent, and in short, everyone has their own thoughts.
"Newspaper~~! Your Majesty, the Western Regions 3,000 miles to expedite the military situation. ”
At this moment, a soldier in iron armor rushed forward, knelt down on one knee in front of Emperor Qin, and presented a military intelligence scroll folded into a cylinder with both hands.
"The Western Regions?"
Qin Huang took the scroll and opened it to browse, then he was shocked and stood up suddenly, with a look of shock in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, what makes you so excited?"
"Is there something wrong with the Western Regions?"
........
A group of important ministers of the court immediately gathered around, looking at the military intelligence scroll eagerly, and a sense of doubt rose in their hearts.
"Zhuqing, take a quick look." Emperor Qin unfolded the scroll of the general's situation, put it on the desk, and urged the ministers.
Hearing this, everyone was full of doubts and walked to Emperor Qin's side to read the military intelligence scroll.
"What! Has the Kingdom of the Western Regions perished? How is this possible! ”
"The Western Regions are adjacent to my Great Qin Empire, the territory is vast, and the soldiers are strong, how can it be captured by other countries?"
"The Kingdom of the Western Regions has 100,000 elite soldiers, how can it be breached?"
"The Kingdom of the Western Regions has a total of 100,000 troops, how can it be easily destroyed, it must be fake news."
..........
A minister's face was full of disbelief and an uproar!
This military intelligence scroll comes from the Western Regions, and according to the secret report of the spies, the Western Regions Kingdom has been conquered by a mysterious army that has suddenly risen.
The royal city of the Western Regions was slaughtered, and all the members of the royal family of the Western Regions died on the battlefield!
Emperor Qin looked at a group of ministers, with a strong anger in his heart, a group of rice buckets, which simply lost the face of the Qin State.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said slowly:
"Zhong Aiqing, the most important thing now is to quell the people's grievances, I plan to lift the blockade, and at the same time send envoys to the Western Regions to quell the chaos, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
An old minister arched his hand and said:
"The flood that broke out this time was caused by the imperfection of the flood control measures in our country, and now that the flood has become more and more intense, it is time to completely revise the flood control measures!"
