Chapter 23: Signs of Change

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, the Zhangtai Palace was suddenly silent.

After all, this thing sounds too strange to anyone.

Since Great Qin ruled the world, there have been no rebellions anywhere, but they are just small fights, and they are not a threat at all.

After all these years, the ministers seem to have gotten used to the threats and simply don't take those threats into account.

However, such an inconspicuous Chu Di can actually let Yingzheng be warned by God!

Suddenly, the ministers fell to their knees in unison.

"The ministers are guilty."

Looking at the ministers who were kneeling on the ground, the expression on Ying Zheng's face did not change, but he asked lightly: "How do you think this matter should be resolved?" ”

As the imperial historian, Wang Juan has the responsibility of supervising hundreds of officials, if there is news of a rebellion in Chudi, then he should be the first to know, and he has not received any news.

However, since His Majesty has proposed it, and he obviously believes it, it is not easy for him to say anything.

After all, no one can say for sure about this kind of thing, especially this kind of thing related to the society of the Great Qin River, it is better to believe it than not to believe it.

So, Wang Juan was the first to speak up, knelt on the ground and examined himself: "The minister is guilty, Chu Di has the intention of rebellion, the minister is unaware of it, it is the minister's dereliction of duty, please Your Majesty punish the crime." ”

Ying Zheng didn't look at him, if Ran Fang hadn't said this, even he wouldn't have thought of this.

Especially Ran Fang's sentence "Although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu", if others say it, I am afraid that it will already be on the ground at this moment.

It was precisely because Ran Fang analyzed it so truthfully that he would summon these ministers over to find a solution to this matter.

"The widow forgives you without sin, and arise all."

The kneeling men looked at each other before they got up from the ground trembling.

Especially Wang Qian, who is so old, if His Majesty hadn't invited him into the palace several times, he would have always been reluctant to get involved in major events in the court.

It's just that this is a matter of Daqin's safety, so he had to enter the palace.

Thinking of this, Wang Jian took a step forward, bowed down and replied: "Your Majesty, it is better to directly send troops to Chudi to deter the world." ”

Wang Jian meant not to talk about the dispatch of troops first, but to investigate this matter clearly, if that Chu Di really had a rebellion, it would not be too late to kill.

As soon as the words fell, Wang Ben, the son of Wang Qian, stood up, saluted respectfully to Yingzheng, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since Nachu has the heart of rebellion in the future, he should strangle them all in the cradle at this moment. ”

"The minister is willing to personally lead the troops to go and strangle the group of rebellious ministers and thieves in Chudi!"

Wang Ben has followed Ying Zheng for many years, and he obeys Ying Zheng's words 100%, even if Ying Zheng does not say that he has received a warning from God, as long as Ying Zheng says a word, he can also take the soldiers and horses to level the old Chu land.

What's more, the ambitions of those old nobles, even if they don't exist now, they can't be sure that they won't have in the future.

In that case, wouldn't it be easy to dispose of them all!

After saying that, he stood there respectfully, waiting for Yingzheng's will.

The ministers headed by Li Si, after listening to Wang Ben's words, also stepped forward and echoed in a voice: "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

Ying Zheng looked at the officials in the audience, frowned slightly, and found that the thoughts of these ministers coincided with his own thoughts, but he wanted to get more different ideas.

The last time the book was repaired, it was also proposed by the minister of the DPRK and China that the books of the world should be confiscated and burned, and Ran Fang made a better suggestion.

And what about these ministers?

No useful advice at all.

Yingzheng, who originally wanted to send troops immediately, hesitated at this moment.

He thought, if Ran Fang was here, would he have other ideas?

Thinking about it like this, he couldn't help but say, "But there are other ways?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers standing in the middle of the hall looked at each other, bowed their heads and said nothing.

Ying Zheng was a little disappointed, and sure enough, as he thought, the officials in the court were all a group of pedantic people, and none of them could be compared with Ran Fang.

At this moment, the ministers all lowered their heads and said nothing, only Zhao Gao, who was standing beside Ying Zheng, was a little surprised in his heart, His Majesty's attitude towards the ministers now is very intriguing.

Especially in the past few days, every time I received the bamboo slips from Xianyang Prison, I would always shake my head and sigh at the ministers' recitals, and today is even worse.

It seems that the influence of Fusu and Ran Fang of Xianyang Prison on His Majesty is inevitably too great.

It's just that this matter of Chudi should have been raised by Xianyang Prison in his opinion, but he didn't know what was written on the bamboo slip, and His Majesty had not sent a message through him.

This realization made Zhao Gao feel a little frightened, could it be that His Majesty had begun to guard against himself?

However, I didn't do anything during this time.

Li Si didn't know what Ying Zheng was thinking, but standing in the position of prime minister, he had the same idea as Wang Juan, no matter whether the matter of Chu Di was true or not, since there was this warning, he couldn't help but sit idly by.

If it is allowed to develop, it will become a major hidden danger for Great Qin.

So he bowed forward, looked at Yingzheng very respectfully, and admonished: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that General Wang is reasonable. ”

"The strength of the old nobles of Chu should not be underestimated, when His Majesty swept Liuhe, it took only four years for Chu to do, which can be described as the strength of the whole country."

"Now that God has given His Majesty a warning, then we should seize this opportunity and kill all these old nobles while the old nobles of Chu are not yet full-fledged, and there will not be so many things."

"What's more, those people in Chu have never really submitted to Your Majesty, and they have raised troops from time to time to rebel over the years, so even if they kill my Great Qin, there will be no loss."

"Returning peace to Chu is also a good thing for Daqin."

I saw that Ying Zheng was not in a hurry to express his position, and after thinking for a while, he looked at Wang Ben.

"Wang Ben, I ordered you to secretly lead troops and go to the land of Old Chu to investigate the rebellion of the old Chu nobles, if they do have the intention of rebellion, it is not too late to use troops."

"Remember not to act rashly, it is best not to suppress it by force, and give the people of Chu a chance."

Since returning from the tour with His Majesty, Wang Ben basically has no chance to send troops, and he must take advantage of such an opportunity.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his blood was boiling, his ideals were extinguished by His Majesty's words.

"Whoa!"

And when Li Si heard Yingzheng's will, his heart was shocked.

Your Majesty, who has always been decisive in killing, actually came to such a will this time!

The changes have to make people think deeply!

Isn't it related to Ran Fang in that prison?

"If there's nothing to do, just step down."

"Wang Ben stayed."

All the ministers stood up and saluted Yingzheng respectfully before retreating and leaving Zhangtai Palace.

Wang Ben knelt on the ground, a little apprehensive in his heart, not knowing what else His Majesty had to command.

When everyone left, he heard Yingzheng's voice coming from overhead: "The affairs of Chu are very important, and there must be no mistakes." ”

Saying that, Ying Zheng's voice paused, "Fusu has a very close relationship with the people of Chudi, you can go to Xianyang Prison before sending troops, talk to Fusu in detail, and see what his attitude is to this matter?" ”

I didn't expect him to go to Xianyang Prison, Wang Ben's heart sank, did His Majesty want to separate the relationship between Gongzi Fusu and Chudi?
