Wang Wan was working overtime in the palace, because King Qin went to Lishan Camp, he had to go through all the memorials.

He was reviewing the memorial when suddenly he heard a servant report that the house was on fire, so he rushed to the house from the palace, but the house was already in flames.

Looking at the sea of ​​flames, Wang Wan cried out in pain, "Ai Ji, it's because my husband didn't take good care of you! You... go with peace of mind!"

Wang Wan's heart was in great pain, that concubine's kung fu at night was the most pity, but the most pity was his family property, which lost everything after a fire.

I have worked hard all my life, and now I have returned to the past overnight.

Wang Wan didn't believe it. There would be a fire for no reason. It must be a thief in the family, or some short-sighted thing who hated his family and set the fire for revenge.

"Ma'am, what's going on? Why is the house on fire?"

Wang Wan's wife cried: "It's not the elf you were looking for, the fire started from her room. A servant girl saw that your little elf, she went crazy and spilled the kerosene used for the fire at home. on the doors and windows, and then the fire burned out..."

"It's all you, it's all you, if you hadn't married that goblin, how could the house be on fire."

Wang Wan was stunned, Ai Ji poured oil on fire, and then set herself on fire?

How is this possible?

The night before yesterday, he was fine, and he promised to give birth to a fat boy!

Xiong Qi's mansion was also burned to the ground.

It's just that Xiong Qi followed King Qin to the Lishan camp this time, and he didn't know that his house was on fire. Xiong Qi's house was much worse than Wang Wan's. Several servants were burned to death, even Xiong Qi's wife was almost burned to death. Yes, now sent to the hospital, is saving lives.

Xiong Dian roared frantically, he must find out the murderer and cut him into pieces.

The eldest brother was not at home, he was the only one looking after the house, and the house was burned down by fire.

……

Such scenes were staged in the homes of officials and nobles in Xianyang City.

The people of Tingwei Mansion and the guards of Xianyang City all participated in the fire and rescue team. The people of Xianyang City were also affected, crying and shouting in a mixed manner.

At the same time, Xianyang City was also closed.

Wei Liaozi, Luo Wang, and the people from Heibingtai all acted to arrest the spies of Zhao State, and the whole Xianyang City was really in chaos.

Chapter 161

The night finally passed, and Xianyang City returned to peace the next day.

The common people didn't sleep all night and didn't dare to go out, so they could only stay at home in fear all night, and when they appeared on the street the next day, my good fellow, the homes of the princes and ministers were gone.

Moreover, funerals are being held in the homes of several nobles and officials.

People in twos and threes stood together, discussing what happened.

"What happened last night? Somebody thought the enemy had entered Xianyang City."

"You don't know, last night, the mansions of the left and right prime ministers were all set on fire, the right concubine Wang Wan's concubine was burned alive, and several family members of princes and ministers were killed..."

"Ah? How could such a thing happen?"

"I have a brother-in-law who is on errand and participated in the fire fighting last night. He said it was done by Zhao's spies."

"Damn Zhao people, sooner or later, Daqin's cavalry will want their horses to step into Handan of Zhao State."

Another person said: "The mansions of princes and ministers are burned down, but the people of Zhao should never have done so, and let assassins assassinate our king."

"What? The king was assassinated last night, so the old man..." The other two looked at the third person in horror. They had just lived a good life. What if the king was assassinated?

"I heard that Your Majesty was stabbed twice by an assassin, and was finally saved by Zhang Shangqing and Meng Shangqing. Your Majesty is fine now."

"These Zhao people are simply too hateful. They can't beat our Great Qin army, so they can do such dirty things. According to someone, let the army kill them, destroy Handan City, and capture Zhao Wangqian alive."

"Yes yes yes, dare to assassinate our king, you are tired of life."

Ying Zheng received a secret report last night, learned of the situation in Xianyang, and rushed to Xianyang City overnight. He was very angry, and Zhao Wangqian really wanted to assassinate him.

If it wasn't for the fake King Qin, wouldn't he be assassinated in Xianyang City this time?

However, listening to the discussions on the street, Qin Wang showed a smile on his face, and the people's support for starting a war against Zhao.

"Go back to the palace and inform Zhang He, Dunwei, to come and meet the widow immediately."

The people around him went to inform Zhang He and Dunwei, and the rest of the people followed Qin Wang Yingzheng towards the palace. When they saw the mansions of the left and right prime ministers turned into ashes, Yingzheng felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Damn it weak, damn Zhang He, is this how he works for the widow?"

Qin Wang Yingzheng was very angry, what if he burned the widow's palace?

Zhang He received the order from Yingzheng to let him and Dunwei go to Xianyang Palace to meet the King of Qin. Zhang He was also beating drums in his heart. Will he be punished by the King of Qin if he messed up the errand this time?

It's just that he was weak but seemed very happy. He got on the carriage and headed towards Xianyang Palace.

The two arrived at Xianyang Palace at the same time, and Ying Zheng had already changed into court clothes. He was dressed in a black robe and looked very majestic.

At this moment, Ying Zheng held a sword in his left hand and stood in the center of Zhangtai Palace, with his back facing Zhang He and Dunwei. There was no one else in the whole palace, and it seemed quiet. Zhang He glanced at the unpredictable Ying Zheng, and then looked at himself old man.

The two bowed and said: "I have seen the king."

Ying Zheng didn't turn around, let alone speak.

Dunwei continued to bow and said: "Your Majesty, I'm going to die, please punish me for my crime."

The corner of Zhang He's mouth twitched, and he quickly bowed and said, "Please punish the king."

Qin Wang Yingzheng finally turned around, his face was livid, and he said coldly: "Where is the crime?"

He said weakly: "Your Majesty handed over Wei Liaozi to the guilty ministers, but the criminal ministers failed to find out the spies of Zhao, and let the King be assassinated. What's more, the Sangong Jiuqing and the nobles of the Great Qin Dynasty were attacked... crime Your crime is unforgivable."

After speaking suddenly, he took off his official hat, knelt down on the ground, and waited for King Qin to deal with him.

The corner of Zhang He's mouth twitched again, imitating his weak appearance, took off his official hat, knelt on the ground and shouted: "The criminal has betrayed the trust of the king, and messed up the matter, please punish the king."

Ying Zheng sneered in his heart. Sure enough, it's not a family. If you don't enter a family, why did you meet together?

"You are guilty, and you deserve death!"

"The widow entrusted such an important matter to you, especially you Dun Shangqing, you have failed the trust of the widow, why didn't you find out before doing things, where are those spies hiding?"

"You let Zhao's spies kill the families of the widow's important ministers and burn down their mansions. How do you ask the widow to explain to them?"

"I'm dead!" Dun Ruo and Zhang He bowed their heads and pleaded guilty.

Ying Zheng said angrily: "Dunwei will cut off the position of Dian Keqing, thinking that he has contributed to the Great Qin, and temporarily acts as Dian Keqing."

"Zhang He..."

Ying Zheng looked at Zhang He, sighed, and said lightly: "Zhang He has the merit of escorting, but he did not anticipate the enemy first, causing heavy losses to the ministers and nobles, and the merits and demerits are equal."

"Thank you king."

Ying Zheng said angrily: "Dun Shangqing, Zhang Shangqing, if something like this happens again, you can take care of yourself."

"Get up! Put your official hat back on, do you want to resign and have a grandson? The widow hasn't conferred a marriage yet!"

I was speechless!Slowly picked up the hat on the ground.

Zhang He looked puzzled, and after thinking for a long time, he figured out the key point.

He glanced at his father-in-law, and then at Ying Zheng, the two of them have something tricky in private, do it!

He had suspected before that in Xianyang City, the guards are so strict, Wei Liaozi, Heibingtai, Luowang and other forces are intertwined with each other, how could it be impossible to find out Zhao Guo's spies, even if they can't be found out, they should be a minority !

But after the incident happened, he was shocked. There were so many spies in the Zhao country. People are always watching, how can they succeed?

As a result, there were several assassinations and more than a dozen fires in the entire Xianyang City, and the houses of the left and right prime ministers were burned.

Why is Wang Jian's family fine, Yao Jia's family fine, old man Ying Bing's house, Ying Xi's family, all fine...

This……

Zhao Guo's spies have done such things, then...the princes and nobles of the whole Daqin will regard Zhao Guo as their biggest enemy, and the country hates the family feud. Even those who oppose the war will hate Zhao Guo To the bone, the whole Great Qin is one, dare to ask Zhao Guo what else?

Even if Daqin loses to Zhao Zhengzhan, those who hate Zhao Guo will donate money and materials, want to kill Zhao Guo, and then take revenge!

Being able to become an emperor through the ages is indeed a well-deserved reputation. With such a skill, who would not accept it?

Now that he took Dunwei and punished himself, he gave the ministers an explanation.

In fact, for Dunwei, getting rid of Dian Keqing and letting him take over temporarily, and still controlling Wei Liaozi, how is this different from punishment?

Seeing that Zhang He was in a daze, Ying Zheng scolded: "Don't go help plan the battle plan against Zhao, Yao Shangqing is waiting for you at the Guowei Mansion!"

Dun weakly bowed and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me. The guilty minister is willing to take the crime and make meritorious service."

Zhang He followed the old man out in a daze.

The old man walked in front, Zhang He finally asked: "What did you discuss?"

Turning around weakly, he said in a cold voice: "What was discussed? Don't make wild guesses. I didn't tell you. It's for your own good. If something really goes wrong, what will my daughter do?"

"Come on, don't think too much about this matter. As a king who aspires to the world, he has to make some choices for the sake of the world. This matter was suggested to the king, but the king didn't agree. It was decided by someone privately."

Zhang He sighed, this old man is more cunning than a fox!His Majesty will definitely not agree to this matter, but if it is done, His Majesty must be very happy in his heart!

However, for Dunwei who cares about him so much, Zhang He feels warm in his heart, and Dunwei can be regarded as his future relatives, like an old father.

Chapter 162 Yingzheng's method, military sand table

After Zhang He and Dun Ruo left, Ying Zheng personally went to the homes of the affected ministers to offer condolences.

First came to Mengtian's house, Yingzheng was really angry about the assassination of the old lady. Zhao's excuse will not make a fuss about the old lady's life.

No one has found out about this spy, and neither does Ying Zheng.

"Meng Qing, please forgive me, I'm sorry for the old lady of the Meng family, I'm sorry for the old general Meng Ao..."

Then she bowed deeply three times towards the old lady's coffin.

He got up and said, "Pass on the will of the widow, grant the old lady the title of doctor, and pass it on to her descendants."

Meng Tian and Meng Yi hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng looked at Meng Tian and Meng Yi, took a deep breath, and said: "Old General Meng Ao has fought for the Great Qin all his life, and has made countless achievements in battle. If it weren't for the fact that there is no precedent for a prince in the Great Qin, he should be a prince and guard a piece of land for the Great Qin. General Meng Wu has inherited the behest of old General Meng Ao, led the army, and made new achievements, and the two Meng Qing have followed the widow since childhood, protecting the widow..."

"The three generations of loyal generals of the Meng family are truly my great Qin's fortune, and the widow's fortune."

"And behind this, there are so many days and nights of silent dedication by the old lady, but today... the widow is unable to protect the old lady comprehensively, it is the widow's crime."

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, his eyes were red, showing that he was really moved.

The two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, you can't say that. Your Majesty is not guilty. It's because the ministers didn't take good care of grandma. This is the sin of grandsons."

"The widow will go first, bury the old lady well, don't be stingy."

The two bowed and sent Ying Zheng out of the Meng Mansion.

"Zhao Gao, write a sacrificial letter for the widow, send it to Meng Qing's mansion, and tell Meng Qing that the old lady can be buried with the doctor according to the regulations."

Zhao Gao took the order, secretly surprised in his heart, the Meng family has gone through eight lifetimes of good luck, and let a woman receive such preferential treatment as the king.

It can be seen that this Meng family will flourish in the future.

Afterwards, Qin Wang Yingzheng went to Xiong Qi's house, gave condolences, and reprimanded Zhao Wangqian, and at the same time said that he was not good for Dunwei's work, dismissed and investigated, and at the same time gave Xiong Qi a prime minister's mansion .

Came to Wang Wan's temporary home, comforted Wang Wan, and heard that Wang Wan's concubine Ji was burned to death, so she gave Wang Wan another concubine. place to go.

He also gave Wang Wan a mansion.

……

Just when Yingzheng was going around the city to convey condolences to each family, Zhang He Dunruo came to Guowei's Mansion to participate in the discussion on the strategic deployment of today's battle against Zhao.

Since the military sand table presented by Zhang He, the generals of Qin State have been very fascinated by it, and have done special training. All generals with more than a thousand generals must know this kind of sand table deduction.

That is to say, before participating in a war, both sides must make a virtual battle command on this terrain according to their corresponding strength.

The people who participated in the meeting today for the strategic deployment of the Zhao State included the people of Guowei's Mansion, Wang Jian and his son, Li Si, Ying Xi, and Zhang He Dunruo.

As for other people, such as the left and right prime ministers, and the Meng family, Ying Zheng did not let them participate because of family affairs. After all, family affairs are also very important. As a king, you should be considerate of the difficulties of your subjects.

When Zhang He and Dunwei arrived at Guowei's mansion, except for Guowei Yao Jia, no one else came, after all, it was still early.

Yao Jia glanced at Zhang He, then at Dunwei, and said with a sneer, "You old guy came up with the idea, right?"

He remained silent for a while.

Yao Jia laughed and said, "You old guy, you've lived longer and come back, and you've become kind-hearted. If someone, hmph, will add fire to Zhao's spies and burn out those opposing voices."
