Chapter 643: Fengjun Wulie, the general of Northern Xinjiang, issued an edict to the world!
Bai Yan returned to Xianyang. Since he was riding with Ying Zheng, when he arrived at Xianyang City, he could only hear the noise outside but did not see the scene outside.
Ying Zheng's six-horse carriage has a suspicious driver, and almost all carriages, without exception, are not allowed to open the curtains. The purpose is to prevent outsiders from knowing which carriage Ying Zheng is riding.
But even in the carriage, listening to the sounds outside, Bai Yan could feel that there must be many, many people outside, like a sea of people.
Ying Zheng was sitting in the middle seat of the carriage, while Bai Yan was sitting by the side window, talking to Ying Zheng. The six-horse carriage had plenty of space.
for a long time.
When the carriage stopped, after hearing the report from the eunuchs outside, they had arrived at the palace gate. Bai Yan took the lead to get out of the carriage, and then escorted Ying Zheng down.
Standing next to Ying Zheng and looking at the Xianyang Palace in front of him, Bai Yan felt a little strange.
Months of killing, getting used to seeing corpses and blood, wandering on the edge of life and death, and having a tense expression all the time, all these made Bai Yan need enough time to slowly calm down.
Seeing Ying Zheng walking towards the palace, Bai Yan quickly followed.
In the palace, countless palace guards stood guard on both sides holding swords.
In the empty and vast field, Bai Yan followed Ying Zheng and walked for a long time before arriving at the hundred-step staircase and then the palace hall.
Arriving again after a few months, Bai Yan couldn't help but look a little nervous when looking at the main hall. Bai Yan didn't know why. He had been here countless times, but he was just not used to it and felt unfamiliar.
Ying Zheng, who was wearing royal robes, seemed to be aware of Bai Yan's abnormality. He glanced at Bai Yan. Ying Zheng smiled and walked into the hall first.
When Bai Yan saw this, he took two breaths, then nervously followed behind.
In the main hall at this moment.
All the civil and military officials of the Qin State were on both sides of the main hall. When they saw Ying Zheng entering the main hall, they all looked sideways.
At this time, among the civil officials, Prime Ministers Feng Quji and Wang Wan were present, Tingwei Li Si, and other Qin ministers all looked at Bai Yan with different faces.
Among the generals, Wei Liao, Xin Sheng, Feng Jie and many other generals also looked at Bai Yan.
See Bai Yan again.
All the civil and military officials in the Qin court had different thoughts, some were good, some were bad, and some were very complicated.
Among the ranks of civil servants, Tai Jing, who was at the back of the civil service, saw Bai Yan following Ying Zheng. He looked over and suddenly became happy. He looked at Bai Yan. Tai Jing gave Bai Yan an excited look and saw
Bai Yan's understanding made Tai Jing excited. When he looked at the officials around him, he felt proud. Especially when he saw the envious look in Le Shang's eyes, Tai Jing's heart was full of vanity.
Tai Jing's face was full of anticipation when he thought that when Bai Yan returned, they would have to hang out in restaurants together in the future.
the other side.
Bai Yan walked in the hall and naturally saw Bai Yu among the generals. Seeing Bai Yu's approving eyes, Bai Yan nodded slightly in return.
After arriving at the front of the center of the hall, Bai Yan did not continue walking forward. He watched Ying Zheng, accompanied by Han Yezhe, walk up the steps and then walked to the throne.
Bai Yan and the civil and military officials in the hall all knelt on the ground and saluted Ying Zheng.
"Greetings to the King!"
"Meet the King!!!"
All civil and military officials saluted in unison.
Ying Zheng, who returned to the throne, also knelt on the throne, raised his hands, and returned the salute to the officials.
After the ceremony.
Under Ying Zheng's instruction, Han Yezhe motioned to the eunuchs who had been waiting at the edge of the hall to come forward. Then in front of all the civil and military officials, he picked up the edict sent by an eunuch and said loudly.
"Bai Yan, the lieutenant of Yanmen County, accepted the king's order and was ordered to destroy Wei..."
All the civil and military officials heard Han Yezhe's words and Han Yezhe's detailed account of Bai Yan's achievements. None of them were surprised. Even many Qin officials like Cai Chao who had no dealings with Bai Yan,
I was speechless for a moment.
These are all facts that Bai Yan made great contributions to the establishment. Although they wish that Bai Yan would become a sinner, it does not mean that they dare to open their eyes and tell lies.
However, listening to Han Yezhe's narration, one person's face is not very good-looking, especially Cai Chao.
When Bai Yan was dealing with the robbery and betrayal, he directly killed Cai Chao's savior Zhuang Chu, as well as all the Zhuang family. Cai Chao naturally formed a deadly feud with Bai Yan. In the past, at the palace gate, Cai Chao was in front of all the civil and military officials.
In front of the officials, he said that Bai Yan was arrogant. Later, Li Xin was defeated and 200,000 troops died in the battle. Cai Chao also put all the blame on Bai Yan in front of all the civil and military officials, including Bai Yu, and reprimanded Bai Yan for not attacking.
Chu State, for this reason Bai Yu almost made a move with Cai Chao, but fortunately Wang Wan, who was the imperial censor at the time, stopped him.
Now, seeing Bai Yan leading his troops to attack Chu and making great achievements one after another, Cai Chao's face was naturally livid, and his eyes were full of unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do about Bai Yan.
"Bai Yan's great merits, the king is given the title of Wu Lie, the highest rank, five hundred servants, ten thousand gold rewards, and ten thousand more households in the city..."
Han Ye was in the main hall, reading aloud the reward for Bai Yan. All the civil and military officials of the Qin State, even Li Si, Wei Liao, Wang Wan and others, all knew that Bai Yan had become a member of the Qin Dynasty outside the royal family.
The highest position among state ministers.
In addition to titles, whether they are titles or rewards, they are all exceptional rewards. You must know that Bai Yan also has a fief.
As for the title.
All the civil and military officials knew that above the level of Daliang Zao and below the marquis, whether they were the commander of the chariots or the generals, they were all the state captains and Taiwei who commanded all the military affairs of the Qin State.
Basically, they are all members of the Ying clan.
Even if there are rewards given to ministers, they are all people who do not touch the military power. Moreover, there are only two people who are not related by blood in the records. One is Fan Ju, Yinghou, and the other is Lu Buwei, Wenxinhou.
This is also the reason why Bai Qi made great military exploits but was unable to become a marquis in the end.
It is no longer a secret in the hearts of everyone in the world that as a general of the King of Qin, you will not be granted the title of marquis. However, for the middle-level generals and lower-level generals, it is too far away and out of reach, so they don't care much, let alone Wu.
There are few people like Bai Qi, Wang Jian, and Bai Yan who not only have the ability, but also the opportunity.
In short, in the Qin State, if one does not have Ying's bloodline and touches the Qin State's military power, and still wants to be granted a title of marquis, Wei Ran has been the only one to do so since ancient times.
But Wei Ran's identity is that he is the uncle of King Qin Zhao!
Inside the palace hall.
Han Ye read aloud many rewards. In addition to conferring titles and titles to the emperor, there were also a series of rewards, such as three mansions, one in Luoyang, one in Yueyang, and one in Xinzheng. There were also many ritual vessels, all of which were without exception.
Has a unique and special symbol.
Finally, after Han Ye recited Wang Zhao, he was in the envious eyes of countless ministers such as Tai Jing, Le Shang, Li Xin, and Meng Tian.
Bai Yan, who was in the center of the hall, was served by several eunuchs, taking off his robes and clothes...
This scene made countless civil and military officials see it, and they couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Five years ago, Bai Yan was like this. He came to the hall for the first time and received a reward. At that time, Bai Yan's body was full of swords and swords.
Under the armor, there were wounds all over his body.
Five years passed by in a blink of an eye. When Bai Yan was once again served by the eunuchs and put on a brand new crown, he had become a great leader of the Qin State and was granted the title of king.
Mr. Wu Lie!
Thinking of this title, many older Qin ministers sighed in their hearts. How could they have imagined five years ago that this young man named Bai Yan would make Ying Zheng the king in five years!
"My lord, Bai Yan, thank you, Your Majesty!"
After putting on the Jue Bian, Bai Yan, who had already put on the official uniform of the Qin State, kowtowed to Ying Zheng in the main hall as he watched the original right-hand Jue Bian being placed on the wooden tray held by the eunuch and taken away.
Made in great quality!
Just three words, even Bai Yan couldn't help but be excited. At this moment, Bai Yan, who was compiling the ceremony, couldn't help but return to the place where he grew up. He couldn't help but think of the person who would stand in the way from childhood to adulthood.
The grandmother in front of me recalled how when the villagers laughed at me, my grandmother would always use a broom to drive them away.
This is true for both children and adults. No matter which village he is in or who the other person is, as long as the villagers laugh at him, his grandmother will always protect him.
"My grandson will definitely be more promising than you! There will definitely be a wise king and a wise king for my grandson, who will be given the title of minister and general!"
This is what my grandmother always said when she finally had a dispute with the villagers, and was laughed at later.
Now carrying the Jue Bian made by Daliang of the Qin State and wearing the official uniform of the Qin State, Bai Yan missed his hometown even more at this moment, especially when he thought of his grandmother's appearance, the tip of Bai Yan's nose felt sour, and his eyes could no longer suppress the panting.
red.
Bai Yan wanted to go back to his grandmother, wearing this official uniform and carrying his Jue Bian, to show her.
This time, he wanted to take his grandmother for a walk in the village.
This time, he will walk in front of his grandmother!
In the main hall.
Han Ye was handing over the edict to the eunuch, who would hand it over to Bai Yan after the court. When he saw Bai Yan, his highness, raised his head, his eyes were red and filled with tears, Han Ye
The visitors all doubted that they were dazzled.
How could Bai Yan be like this when he was so happy? He had just made great military exploits for the Qin State, destroying Wei and attacking Chu. Why would he suddenly show such weakness in the hall?
appearance.
Han Yezhe was a little confused, but he quickly thought of what he heard in Ba Shang yesterday, and instantly understood something. For a moment, Han Yezhe's surprised eyes gradually softened.
same.
Ying Zheng, who was kneeling on the throne, also noticed Bai Yan's appearance.
How does this look like your own general!
Ying Zheng thought in his mind, but the doting look in his eyes made a smile appear on his face.
Looking at Han Yezhe, Ying Zheng then took out another piece of cloth edict from his sleeve and handed it to Han Yezhe.
Last night in Ba Shang, after Bai Yan left, Ying Zheng did not rest immediately. Instead, he prepared this piece of cloth before going to bed, and Ying Zheng always carried this piece of cloth with him.
"besides?"
"besides???"
Your Highness, the civil and military officials of the Qin Kingdom naturally saw Ying Zheng's actions, and they all looked at each other with surprise. Everyone had more or less heard about the previous reward to Bai Yan.
, the title of king involves the Ying clan, so the clan members are all involved, and the food and towns are selected by the left and right prime ministers of the Qin State, so Feng Quji and Wang Wan are both involved.
So when they saw Ying Zheng taking out a piece of cloth edict again, and it seemed that it was clearly decided by Ba Shang, all the civil and military officials looked surprised at this moment.
Even Li Si, Wei Liao, Feng Quji, Wang Wan and others were no exception. They all looked at Ying Zheng and then at the edict in Han Ye's hand.
"King's order! Wu Liejun previously lived in the north, where he kept the people in good order and led the troops wherever they came. The Xiongnu were safe and intimidated the Central Plains. Now, I have given you the seal of general to lead the Qin army in Yanyun and other lands, guard the northern border of Qin, and secure the people of the Central Plains.
!”
Han Yezhe took the edict and said loudly.
As Han Yezhe's words rang out in the hall, all the civil and military officials shrank their pupils and looked at Ying Zheng in shock.
Li Si, Wei Liao and others were no exception. They looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief. They could all feel that Ying Zheng had given Bai Yan full control over the troops and horses of Northern Xinjiang.
this……
Wei Liao and Li Si looked at each other and frowned slightly.
Ying Zhengke had never mentioned it to them before.
"Your Majesty, Bai Yan, thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's kindness!"
As the person involved, Bai Yan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Ying Zheng had just handed over the military power yesterday. Today, Ying Zheng not only handed over the military power to him again, but even gave him more rights. Looking at Ying Zheng's eyes in the main hall, Bai Yan could feel that Ying Zheng
He saw the trust and expectation in Zheng's eyes, so he saluted Ying Zheng.
Because he knew that later Ying Zheng handed over 300,000 troops to Meng Tian and handed over 500,000 Qin troops to Zhao Tuo, Bai Yan was not too shocked when he heard Ying Zheng's order.
However, what Bai Yan didn't expect was that just as he finished speaking, he heard rapid footsteps behind him, and then the voices of other ministers rang out.
"Your Majesty, no! Although Lord Wu Lie has made great achievements, he is too young!"
"Your Majesty, I advise you that Lord Wu Lie is still young and not qualified to take on such an important responsibility!!!"
…
Bai Yan was sitting on his knees on the ground. When he heard the voice behind him, Bai Yan did not turn around. Even Bai Yan saw Feng Quji, a civil servant not far away, who looked at him and then turned to look behind him.
But Bai Yan still didn't look back, but waited for Ying Zheng's decision.
Inside the palace hall.
Back then, when Hu Quan and Mr. Hu were away, many ministers in the Qin court admonished Bai Yan. Even if Ying Zheng had the intention, he would have to worry about the opinions and reputation of the officials.
However, now that Feng Quji has become the Right Prime Minister of the Qin State, almost all the well-connected officials headed by Feng listen to Feng Quji's words.
Therefore, when Ying Zheng asked the officials for their opinions in the main hall, no matter how the officials argued or which minister objected, when Feng Quji spoke, the matter was settled.
Li Si, Wei Liao, Wang Wan and others also knew that when Ying Zheng had already made up his mind and had the support of the Right Prime Minister Feng Quji, it would be useless for anyone to object, so no one spoke.
Inside Xianyang City.
When Bai Yan's edict was posted throughout the city, and many officials of the Qin State left Xianyang to inform other cities.
The whole Xianyang city was filled with crowds. Countless people were shocked when they saw the contents of the edict and the reward given by Ying Zheng to Bai Yan. They immediately started talking loudly with the people around them.
"Daliang Zao! Bai Yan was actually created by Feng Daliang!"
"Ying Zheng granted Bai Yan the title of Lord Wu Lie!!!"
"Ten thousand gold, ten thousand households added to the city, plus Bai Yan's fiefdom, I'm afraid Bai Yan's city, how much tax Bai Yan will receive every year now!"
Amidst the noise of the crowd, countless scholars discussed the contents of the edict.
The scholars of the Six Kingdoms all couldn't believe that Ying Zheng rewarded Bai Yan so much, especially Bai Yan's food. I'm afraid that Bai Yan now has the title of Marquis, but he has already become a Marquis.
When they saw the rear, the Qin army north of the Central Plains, all under Bai Yan's command, countless people took a breath of air, their eyes full of fear and anxiety.
Ying Zheng wants Bai Yan to sit in the north of the Central Plains! Defend the Xiongnu in the north and watch the Central Plains in the south!
On a crowded street.
A carriage drove slowly among the crowd.
When Lu Gong, Lu Pheasant and others in the carriage heard the arguing outside, they all fell silent. Even Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi looked in disbelief.
The two brothers really couldn't imagine that Bai Yan, who had just been named Lord Wu Lie by Ying Zheng, had actually been seen by his father and younger sister. How could this be possible!
……………………
Xia Cai.
"Have you heard that our Qin army has captured Shouchun, the capital of Chu? The King of Chu has committed suicide while carrying the cud, and his concubines have all been sent to Xianyang!"
"In this case, Chu State has been destroyed, and what is left now is Qi State!"
"No! I heard that General Wang Ben and General Yang Yan have written to Xianyang and want to send troops to attack Qi! It's a pity that General Bai Yan is not here. If General Bai Yan is here..."
In Xia Cai City, as the Qin army conquered the city, some traces of war could still be vaguely seen on top of the city. Several Qin soldiers in the city held Qin swords and talked while inspecting the city.
And not far away, outside the small house, Beiji looked at Yingshi with tears on her face, kneeling on the ground and begging, wanting to go to Yanmen together, feeling a little helpless.
"Little master, now my son does not know whether he is alive or dead. If he is a slave, then General Bai Yan will definitely be able to find out. Please help the Ying family, little master. The Ying family will repay the favor of the little master and Bai Yan when they become slaves and maids in the future.
General Yan’s kindness!”
Mrs. Ying knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the Lady of the Monument. Tears in her eyes kept flowing down.
Watching Lady Ying smash her forehead, Lady Stele finally felt unbearable and helped Lady Ying.
"The general is not Miss Bei. If you want to find a son, the energy consumed is unimaginable. I dare not say that the general can find someone!"
Beiji sighed and said to Yingshi, she did not expect that when Yingshi came to Xiacai, not only did she not find any news about her husband, but she also learned that her eldest son was sent to join the army by his father-in-law and his wife and went to the battlefield. Now he is alive and dead.
I don't know.
Recalling that she had been searching all the way here, Bai Yan had already returned to Xianyang. Fortunately, she met Bai Yan's cronies and learned that Bai Yan had asked her to go to Yanmen to wait.
However, in fact, even if Bai Yan didn't say anything, Bei Ji would still go to Yanmen.
Ji Ji knew that her father was wanted by the Qin court during his lifetime and had offended countless nobles. Now that the Chu State was destroyed, countless women from the noble tribes were taken to Xianyang, including many who knew her.
So when Beiji learned that Bai Yan had returned to Xianyang, she planned to go to Yanmen to wait for Bai Yan. If Bai Yan did not return to Yanmen in the end, she would write to someone to take the bamboo slips to Xianyang.
And the Ying family.
Compared with other slaves, this Yingshi not only felt sorry for her, but also remembered that Yingshi led her to find her father's tomb.
Moreover, the Ying family is indeed much more comfortable in doing things. Although she is older, her appearance is much better than that of ordinary servants and maids. After meeting Bai Yan, the monument goddess plans to ask Bai Yan to treat Ying family as a pity and keep Ying family.
After all, Bai Yan also has other servants and maids around him. Rather than letting those servants and maids take care of him, it would be better to let the Ying family take care of him. This is something Bei Ji can still understand along the way.
As for whether we can find Ying's eldest son, it depends on God's will!
"Thank you, little master! Thank you, little master!"
When Mrs. Ying saw that Monument Lady agreed, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank you to all the book friends for your monthly tickets! Thank you to every book friend!!!
The appearance of Monument Lady and Yingshi all point to Cen Qing in the end!
