"Although Chu has three households, if Qin is destroyed, Chu will definitely die?"
Zulong, who left Xingxing Gorge and returned to Xianyang City in a carriage, silently recited the words Xiang Yu left when he left, his eyes full of coldness: "Okay, great!"
"Here comes someone."
Following Zu Long's call, Zhao Gao, who was outside the carriage, hurried inside to salute, "Your Majesty."
"Send an order to Meng Yi and ask him to lead troops to clear out the rebels in the Chu region."
Zhao Gao first responded, and then asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty, what is this rebellion..."
"Didn't that person say that even though Chu has three households, if Qin is destroyed, it will be Chu. But if there are three households, they are all rebellious!"
Xiang Yu felt that he was embarrassed, and he said harsh words in front of Zu Long in a dignified manner, but he did not expect the consequences it would bring to the people of Chu.
In other words, Meng Yi was a good character, but he just moved a large number of Chu people to the Western Regions and other places instead of directly massacring them all the way. This left a way for the Chu people to survive.
These are all things for later. Zulong, who was now in a furious state, immediately ordered that the chief protector Yang Duanhe be imprisoned directly for being incompetent in suppressing bandits!
To be honest, when Yang Duanhe was in the Western Regions, although he was a little more greedy, although there were more Western Regions beauties in his family, although...he still worked very hard in exterminating the horse bandits.
Because the horse bandits needed to survive, they had to constantly rob merchants on the trade routes to obtain goods, and rob villages and towns to obtain food and other survival supplies.
The merchants on the business road are the main force in escorting gifts to Dadu.
The safety of villages and towns is directly related to Yang Duanhe's position, so he is naturally dedicated.
It's a pity that Xiang Yu's vigorous attack in Xingxing Gorge failed to kill Zulong, but instead killed Yang Duanhe first.
It can only be said that his life is not good and he was tricked by Xiang Yu.
Before this was over, Zulong asked Zhao Gao to call Li Xin into the carriage.
After learning the news, the first thing Li Xin did was to write a will as quickly as possible.
That's right, it's a will.
During this trip, his job was to protect the emperor's safety, but the emperor was assassinated after the trip.
Theoretically speaking, it is a good thing that the emperor survived without any danger, because Li Xin did not have to worry about the whole family lining up to enter the cemetery.
In fact, Li Xin was derelict in his duties, and basically all he could go home with was his head.
So he wanted to arrange things at home as soon as possible.
The title will most likely be confiscated, so there is no need to arrange who will inherit it.
The main thing is that the family's property, from goods to houses, from farms to fields, etc., must be properly distributed. Otherwise, if there are many people in the family, fighting will inevitably occur.
He hurriedly finished writing the suicide note and handed it to the soldier on the side who asked him to work hard to get it back home as quickly as possible even though he was tired.
Then he turned around and smiled bitterly at Zhao Gao, who had been standing aside for a long time, "It's a joke to the CRRC."
"General, you don't have to be like this."
Zhao Gao smiled and comforted, "Your Majesty will remember the general's meritorious service in the future."
Li Xin smiled bitterly and shook his head. Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. He didn't believe Zhao Gao's comfort at all.
When they got to the carriage, Li Xinna bowed his head and confessed his guilt.
I thought His Majesty would scold me severely and then shout "Here comes someone~~~".
What he didn't expect was that Zulong didn't reprimand him, but directly asked, "If you were the protector of the capital, how long would it take to destroy that horse thief?"
Li Xin looked up in shock. He did not expect this to be the case.
Seeing Zu Long's expression of hesitation, Li Xin hurriedly lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Three..."
"Um?"
"two..."
"snort!"
"...One year! I am willing to issue a military order, and these horse bandits will be annihilated within one year!"
In fact, Zu Long, who has a somewhat impatient personality, originally only planned to give him a few months.
But...that's it, that's it.
Li Xin, who had changed his sentence from death penalty to suspended death, felt his legs were weak when he got off the carriage.
He raised his hand and touched his neck. Fortunately, his neck could still carry his head for another year.
Zulong here issued another decree, asking Zhao Gao to send it to Li Yunze, who was far in the far west, and asked him to return to Xianyang City.
Originally, Zu Long planned to meet Li Yunze, inspect the Western Regions, and then urge Meng Tian and others to advance westward.
I never imagined that I would encounter such a terrible thing on the way.
Since he can't go for the time being, he has no choice but to let Li Yunze come back.
A month later, Li Yunze returned to Xianyang City.
On the way back, he also made a special trip to Xingxing Gorge and personally visited the place where Xiang Yu ambush Zulong.
In his words, 'This work is too rough.'
If it were him to conduct this kind of ambush, the first thing he would do would be to dig the roadbed and bury black powder...
If you don’t have black powder, use kerosene!
If you don't even have kerosene, then prepare a super boulder on the top of the mountain, measure the speed and height, and push it down when Zulong's very conspicuous carriage passes by...
If that still doesn't work, arrange for the dead soldiers to wear Qin army uniforms and take advantage of the chaos to get closer...
The last step was to simply cut off the circuit and start a fire directly. The smoked Zulong had to get out of the carriage to avoid being cooked, and then used the bed crossbow that had been placed in advance to snipe...
Anyway, it would not be like Xiang Yu who led his men and horses to charge directly after cutting off the road. He really did not take the accompanying Qin warriors as human beings.
The elite soldiers of the Qin State who were around Zulong were not the rabble who were around Liu Bang during the Battle of Pengcheng!
When leaving Xingxing Gorge, Li Yunze saw Yang Duanhe walking back to Xianyang City through the car window.
This great protector can be considered a disaster.
It's a pity that there is nothing we can do, this is fate.
As for why Yang Duanhe walked back to Xianyang City instead of taking a car...at least a prison car, that's because not everyone is qualified to work in a prison car, and at least you have to be a member of the clan to get started.
Li Yunze had no intention of interfering at all, just like when Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, he didn't say a word.
Because in this world, he has only one goal, and that is to train Zulong to become a chief.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xingxing Gorge has become a place to station troops. The new Protector Li Xin has stationed thousands of troops here. It can be seen that Xiang Yu brought him
What a deep impression.
Group after group of Qin troops began to penetrate deep into the vast sea, looking for traces of Xiang Yu and others.
Regarding these, Li Yunze just looked at them and stopped paying attention.
He has no interest in getting involved in the disputes between the countries in China, unless it is a barbarian invasion!
After arriving in Xianyang City, Li Yunze first went back to the Taifu's mansion, where he had not been back for a long time, washed up and had a meal.
If one were to say which residence in Xianyang City had the best life for the servants, it would definitely be the one in the Taifu's residence.
The Grand Tutor is away from home all year round, has no relatives, no wives, concubines, and children, and there is no master in the mansion.
Servants do not have to worry about being reprimanded, punished, or even killed by their masters.
They only need to do their jobs all day long, the gardeners trim the flowers and plants, the grooms feed the horses, the servants and maids clean the house, the cooks prepare the meals, the dancers... if they have nothing to do, they just dance and play by themselves!
These good days with no risk and plenty of food and clothing really make the servants in the mansion look good and fair.
Now that I have become a man, what do I want to do when I am full and warm? There have been a lot of people added to the Taifu's residence in recent years, all of which are formed by the servants themselves.
In any other mansion, this kind of thing might have resulted in someone's death.
But here, even if Li Yunze knew about it, he just pretended that he didn't know and didn't care.
After eating, drinking and resting for a while, Li Yunze set out and went straight to Xianyang Palace.
Looking at Xianyang Palace, which was obviously much larger in scale, Li Yunze repeatedly said, "It's just a bed to sleep on. Why build such a big house?"
In his opinion, Zulong is also very fond of success. Whether it is a palace or a project, he is always pursuing a big character.
It is said that Epang Palace is much larger than Xianyang Palace.
Let alone staying, can we finish walking?
Li Yunze, who was shaking his head, was about to enter Xianyang Palace when he was stopped by the palace guards.
It's very simple. Although he is a tutor, he is not in Xianyang City all year round. Most of these young palace guards don't know him.
As for the sign for entering the palace, the rules have changed a lot now. Simply having a sign is not enough, it must be received by someone from the CRRC Mansion.
But the eunuch who picked up Li Yunze today did not come either left or right. He was so hungry that he went to eat first.
This is embarrassing. The dignified master cannot enter the palace.
Li Yunze was not angry, just a little emotional.
"From the king to the emperor, there are more airs and more rules, and people are different from before. The ancients said that the chair under the buttocks changes people. The ancients do not deceive me."
As he sighed, a group of carriages slowly stopped outside the palace gate.
A large number of attendants, servants and retainers gathered around a gorgeous four-wheeled carriage in the middle and were busy doing business.
Then, Li Yunze saw Li Si, who was wearing a black robe and an alpine crown with two red ribbons floating on his head, walking over with his head held high.
Li Si rubbed his eyes to make sure he saw it correctly.
The cold and arrogant look on his face suddenly disappeared, and he trotted forward with a grin on his face, "Master, Master. You are finally back~~~"
Li Yunze, with a slight smile on his face, looked at the noble Li Si and said with a smile, "Is this the first assistant?"
"It's all the king's love." Li Si smiled as brightly as a flower and chatted cordially. His words were so pleasant that they made people feel like they were in the spring breeze.
This performance really surprised the attendants.
You must know that their master is not easy to get along with. Last year, he even kicked his fellow disciple Han Fei to the local county to become a county governor.
The scene in front of me is really amazing.
After chatting for a while and talking about the Western Regions, Li Si asked as if he had just thought of it, "Master, this is..."
"Your Majesty said he was looking for me, so he is waiting to go in."
Hearing this, a look of uneasiness flashed across Li Si's face.
Ministers also compete for the emperor's trust. Only with the emperor's trust can they sit firmly and realize their own beliefs.
Li Si drove Han Fei away because Han Fei threatened him in gaining the emperor's trust.
As for the person in front of him, Li Si knew better than anyone else that this was the person the emperor trusted the most.
If he stays in Xianyang City forever from now on, then his status...
Zhao Gao trotted out and shouted with a smile on his face, "Master, Master, you are finally here. Your Majesty has been waiting impatiently."
Then Zhao Gao smiled at Li Si and said, "Chief Assistant, Your Majesty said that today I will only see the Taifu and no one else."
A strange look flashed across Li Si's face again, but he quickly bowed to Li Yunze with a smile, "Master, if you have free time, you must come to a certain house, and a certain person must prepare a banquet. We will never return unless we get drunk."
As Zhao Gao walked into Xianyang Palace, Li Yunze, who was walking forward with his hands behind his back, suddenly sneered.
He sighed, "People can really change. I don't care about your banquet. A bowl of fragrant meat is enough."
