Qin Shi Mingyue's infinite punch card

Chapter 412 Zhao Gao's Conspiracy

Zhao Gao sat down and said, "There is nothing important, I just came to tell Lord Hou one thing."

"What's the matter?"

Wang Li asked.

"Just an hour ago, His Majesty decreed that General Meng Tian be conferred the title of Marquis of Jiuyuan."

Zhao Gao said something lightly.

"what?"

After hearing this, Wang Li was also shocked.

Zhao Gao went on to say: "Meng Tian led an army of 30 to attack the Xiongnu in the north, and now he has killed tens of thousands of enemies. He also captured Henan, Yangshan and other places. Your Majesty wants to establish Jiuyuan County."

"And Meng Tian is the Marquis of Jiuyuan, and that place will become his fiefdom."

Hearing these words, Wang Li's face darkened immediately.

The Wang family and the Meng family are both the top generals of the Great Qin, and they are extremely prominent.As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. For this reason, the two families often have disputes in the court.

Originally, because of the existence of Wang Jian and Wang Ben, the Wang family wanted to firmly suppress the Meng family.But now Wang Jian is very old and rarely shows up again.

And Wang Ben basically doesn't care about too many things, and he is considered to be on the second line.So in fact, Wang Li is the only one supporting the current Wang family.

It's just that although Wang Li is also in a high position, compared with his grandfather and father, he is far behind.

He did not have the outstanding military exploits of Wang Jian, and the reason why he was able to come to this point was largely due to his parents and grandparents.

The Meng family is just the opposite. Meng Ao is dead now, and Meng Wu was only Wang Jian's lieutenant before.

Although it is not comparable to the Wang family in terms of family, but the younger generation of the family is doing well.

Meng Wu had two sons, Meng Tian and Meng Yi.

Meng Tian's military achievements are outstanding. He took the lead in defeating Shouchun in Chu State, and now he defeated the Xiongnu and took a large area of ​​land.

It can be called the number one general of Qin State after Wang Jian and his son!

Although his younger brother Meng Yi has never joined the army, he is also very capable.

Meng Yi was a civil servant, whose status was only a little lower than Li Si's. He was in charge of the court, assisted the first emperor inside, and worshiped Shangqing.

And he was very close to Ying Zheng, and even took a car with him when he went out, and he was an attendant when he lived in.

The two brothers of the Meng family, one literary and one military, are both the emperor's confidantes.

Compared with the Meng family brothers, the only thing Wang Li can get is the title. After all, Marquis Che is still very valuable.

And now Meng Tian has also been granted the title of marquis, and the titles of both sides are equal.

This also made Wang Li lose his final advantage.

Maybe it won't be long before the Wang family will be stepped on by the Meng family, and this is something he cannot accept.

But this was Ying Zheng's order, and there was nothing he could do.

But then, as if thinking of something, he turned his attention to Zhao Gao.

He opened his mouth and asked: "Lord Zhao came here today not only to tell me the news in advance, right? I don't like to go round and round, so if you have anything to say, just say it."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao smiled: "To be honest, I came here just to cooperate with Lord Hou."

Wang Li raised his eyebrows and asked, "How to cooperate?"

Zhao Gaodao: "The Wang family and the Meng family have always had entanglements, now that Meng Tian is enfeoffed as Marquis, the future of the Wang family may be..."

Wang Li snorted coldly and said, "So what about being a Marquis? My Wang family has a family of three Marquises, are you still afraid of him?"

Zhao Gaodao: "Meng Tian really has nothing to do with Lord Hou now, but it will be hard to say in the future."

Hearing the other party's words, Wang Li frowned involuntarily: "What do you mean?"

Zhao Gao didn't answer directly, but asked instead: "Which one is the Meng family supporting, Lord Hou doesn't know?"

"You mean the eldest son?"

Wang Li narrowed his eyes slightly.

Zhao Gao said: "The eldest son Fusu is currently the most likely to inherit the throne, and the Meng family has always been a loyal supporter, and the former also relies heavily on him."

"Current Meng Tian is naturally not capable of moving the Wang family, but if the eldest son succeeds in the future, the status of the Meng family will probably be even higher. At that time, if Meng Tian wants to attack the Wang family again, what will you do, Marquis?" ?”

Hearing these words, Wang Li's expression also became serious.

Then he said: "Even if that's the case, my Wang family is the founder of the country. The armor-piercing soldiers in my hands are not vegetarians!"

Zhao Gao stood up, looked at the other party and said: "Master Hou, why don't you understand? The key is not with Meng Tian, ​​but with the eldest son."

"The Meng family has been loyal to the eldest son for a long time, but the Wang family has not done anything so far, right? If you really wait until Mr. Fusu takes the position, as long as you favor a little, the Wang family may no longer be able to compare with the Meng family?"

Hearing this, Wang Li was silent for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief, and said, "I already know what you mean, so tell me, what is your purpose for coming to me."

Zhao Gao stepped forward and said, "If Mr. Fusu ascends to the throne of God, your life will be hard for you, Lord Marquis. Therefore, if you want to keep the status of the Wang family, I'm afraid you can only..."

Although the former lowered his voice a bit, Wang Li could still hear clearly, and he was a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect the other party to be so courageous.

He shouted in a cold voice: "You are so brave, you dare to interfere in the establishment of the reserve!"

Zhao Gao's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "Your maidservant didn't say anything, I just reminded Lord Hou, don't wait until something happens to regret it."

"Is it possible for my courtiers to interfere in this matter? Master Zhao, please speak carefully!"

Wang Li said with a serious face.

"The servant girl has only said these words to Lord Hou. If you don't like it, you can pretend that you didn't hear anything."

After the words were finished, Zhao Gao looked at the other party's expression, then said nothing more, cupped his hands and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't bother you here, and I will leave."

"No delivery."

Watching the former leave, Wang Li's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

And at this moment, a calm and peaceful voice sounded from beside his ears: "Li'er."

Immediately afterwards, a muscular old man appeared beside him at some unknown time.

Wang Li came back to his senses in an instant, and when he saw this person, he immediately stood up and respectfully cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, grandfather!"

After being canonized as a Grand Master, Wang Jian relinquished all his military power and stopped interfering with the court affairs. In the past two years, he didn't know where to go, and he hardly saw anyone.

"The old man also heard what you said just now, let me tell you what you think."

Wang Jian sat down casually and spoke.

Hearing this, Wang Li's complexion changed, and he immediately replied: "Son'er thinks that what Zhao Gao said has some truth, and we need to plan ahead..."

Before the words fell, Wang Jian said in a deep voice: "Stupid!"
