I was engaged in development in the Qin Dynasty

When Liu Ze woke up again, Zhao Zheng was no longer lying beside him. Seeing him waking up, Luo Xue hurried over to serve him.

"My son is awake?"

"Well, what time is it?" Liu Ze sat up from the couch and asked.

"It's already noon, young master, are you hungry? I'll let someone bring the meal here." Luoxue helped Liu Ze out of bed, and asked while changing Liu Ze's clothes.

"En." Liu Ze nodded, and he asked again, "Where did Zhao Zheng go?".

"Didn't Lai Ai escape? The king has gone to deal with political affairs," Luoxue replied.

Liu Ze said that he knew it, and until now he still dare not recall what happened last night, the real clash of swords and blood spilling all over the ground, the scene was much more tragic than what was shown on TV.After breakfast, Liu Ze went to find Zhao Zheng. He saw Zhao Zheng sitting on the throne in the main hall of the Nian Palace, planning strategies and pointing out the country. He didn't look the same as he did this morning. This man is the First Emperor.

"Brother Liu, are you here?" Seeing Liu Ze walking out, Zhao Zheng had a smile on his face.

"En" Liu Ze smiled back at Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng asked Liu Ze to sit aside to rest, and then continued to wait with the ministers for news from the front.

Lu Buwei stood with the ministers. He looked up at Zhao Zheng's majestic, confident and powerful appearance, and sighed in his heart. The child he brought back from Zhao Guo was 13 years old, but he was as thin as if he was less than ten years old. The child, the child with timid eyes, has grown into a qualified king after all. He has the bearing, confidence and ability that a king needs. Will the accident of Lai Ai hurt him?Lu Buwei couldn't be sure, but he was sure of himself, he had to make more preparations.

The two brothers Xiong Qi and Xiong Fei kept sending good news. They captured Lai Ai's retainers and buddies. However, there was no news of the seriously injured Lai Ai being captured. There was only news of where Lai Ai fled every day. .

Lai Ai's situation is particularly bad at this time. The soldiers of the King of Qin are like cats catching mice. He is clearly invincible, but they still show their weaknesses and let him escape. The people around him are slowly being eaten away by the army of the King of Qin. The king of Qin's order was also distributed. Those who capture Lao Ai alive will be rewarded with a million dollars, and those who kill Lai Ai will be rewarded with 50 yuan. Therefore, he dare not flee among the people. Send it to Zhao Zheng.

Lao Ai was really desperate, and he also knew that Qin Jun was deliberately teasing him, but every time Qin Jun showed his flaws and asked him to escape, he would still run away, he didn't want to die, obviously he was only one step away from that position Yao, he doesn't want to die, as long as he escapes from the state of Qin, he has the possibility of making a comeback. Once he is captured, there is only one way to die.

"Brother, when will you catch him?" Xiong Fei asked.

"When will Lai Ai arrive in Chu?" Xiong Qi asked.

"His speed is still fast, and he can reach the border of Chu State in about ten days."

"Then capture him nine days later, and give him the hope of escape, but in the end he despairs."

"Yes" a smile appeared on the corner of Xiong Fei's mouth, giving him hope and despair, he thought it was good for the former Chang Xinhou. Back then, when he used the Queen Mother to gain power and dominate the world, But I would have thought that today, when greed is not enough to swallow elephants, she would actually persuade the queen mother to conspire against her. The queen mother is also a fool. For such a man, she would actually dare to steal the king's imperial seal. Now, the queen mother is also rejected by the king. I can't keep this long letter.

Five days later, Lu Buwei heard the soldiers come to report that Lai Ai's servants and buddies were basically detained, but there was still no Lai Ai. Although there were reports of Lai Ai's whereabouts, no one was captured. The escape route can be known. He wanted to flee to Chu State. These days, Lu Buwei has been observing Zhao Zheng's expression. Every time he heard the battle report from the soldiers, there was no news that Lai Ai was captured. He must also know where Lai Ai was going. He fled in the direction of Chu State, but his expression and eyes still didn't fluctuate, so Lu Buwei understood that Lai Ai couldn't escape.

Sure enough, on the ninth day, the battle report from the front came again, and Lao Ai had been captured alive, and she was detained and returned to the court in a few days.

Lu Buwei calculated the time, and according to the speed of Lai Ai's escape, in nine days, he should have reached the junction of Qin State and Chu State. As long as he is given another day, he should be able to escape to Chu State and make a comeback. The game of control is over. After nine days of support, I have clearly seen hope, but in the end there is only despair. It is really cruel.

It lasted ten days, and all of Lao Ai's party were detained.

It can only be said that from the very beginning, the situation was under Zhao Zheng's control.

When Chen Peng came to the palace, the former queen mother was sitting quietly on the couch, holding two baby clothes in her arms, and there were two clothes worn by children in the baby clothes. When Chen Peng saw it, he couldn't help but sneered, "To the queen mother!" Please be safe", she is still the mother of the king, even if she made a big mistake, she still gave birth to the king, and she is still the mother of the king, so there are still rules.

When Zhao Ji saw Chen Peng, she rushed towards Chen Peng quickly, grabbed Chen Peng's clothes with both hands, and looked at Chen Peng resentfully. "That little bastard called you here, you let him come to see me, let him come to see me."

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, it was the king who asked the slave to report the news." Chen Peng looked at Zhao Ji with a smile, without any displeasure.

"That scoundrel Zhao Zheng, what news does he want to report to Ai's family? Is it about Lai Ai? He is a poisonous snake, devouring his brother and mother, and he will die badly." Zhao Ji's eyes were bloodshot, and she cursed viciously.

"What will happen to the king in the future? That will be a matter of the future, but the slave came here today to report the news of the Queen Mother's sweetheart." Chen Peng's smile remained unchanged.

"How is Lai Ai? What are you doing to Lai Ai? Is he alright?" Zhao Ji asked eagerly.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Lao Ai has been detained and returned to the court, and her injuries are quite serious. However, the final sentence has not yet begun, and he will not be allowed to die. It is said that this former long letter has fled to Qin Dynasty. The border of the Chu Kingdom is just a little short, and you can escape to the Chu Kingdom and go far away. Unfortunately, you are unlucky, and you were captured and returned to the court. The king originally wanted to come and tell you in person, but thinking of the oath you made before, I will never see you again, so I can only let the old slave go this way."

"Evil barrier, evil barrier, he is a devil crawling out of hell, how could I give birth to him, I gave birth to such a devil like this!" Zhao Ji became excited, grabbed Chen Peng's hand, and her nails were embedded in Chen Peng's flesh up.

Chen Peng didn't seem to feel the pain. With a smile on his face, he opened the queen mother's hand fiercely, straightened his clothes, and continued: "The king also heard that the queen mother misses her son and hugs her all day long. Two swaddling babies, with two pieces of children's clothes in them, really made people cry. Wang also deeply felt that the queen mother loved her son deeply, and suddenly remembered that on the day of his birthday, the old long letter was waiting for him. I gave you a gift, and I think it is especially suitable for you, so come and bring it in.”

"Yes", several eunuchs came in from outside, carrying something with difficulty.

Zhao Ji looked at that thing, and it was a birthday gift from Lai Ai to Zhao Zheng, a mother-child love.

"Wang said, this gift is the most suitable for you. You love your child deeply. This stone is also a stone of deep love between mother and child. It is most suitable for you. You can watch it carefully on weekdays. I believe you will like it." After finishing speaking, Chen Peng was about to leave.

"Ah..." Zhao Ji rushed towards Chen Peng frantically, but was quickly restrained by the nurse beside her, preventing Zhao Ji from touching the corner of Chen Peng's clothes.

Chen Peng turned around, saw Zhao Ji's crazy look, and sneered, "Queen Mother, I will report to you again after that long letter is waiting to be dealt with."

After Chen Peng left, Zhao Ji's body slid down weakly. She knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. The nuns and maids who served her didn't care. , now she is grounded, as long as she takes good care of her food, clothing and housing, the rest is no longer within the scope of their services, even the maids, after hearing that Zhao Ji stole King Qin's imperial seal to plot against a male favorite, they I also feel disgusted.

Zhao Ji had cried enough, she dragged her limp body, and stood up, she staggered back to sit on the bed, when she raised her eyes, she saw the stone of love between mother and child, facing her directly, Zhao Ji Looking at the stone, her body began to tremble. She quickly stood up, picked up a vase beside her and threw it at the stone. The vase broke in response, but the stone remained unscathed and stood there, looking at Zhao Ji.

"King, the word has been brought".

Zhao Zheng nodded.

"It's just that the queen mother can't bear it."

"What does she have to do with the widow if she can bear it?"

"Perhaps, she can't think about it and wants to accompany those two children."

Zhao Zheng shook his head, "She won't, she loves herself more than anyone else in the world", so how could she be willing to die.

The two brothers Xiong Qi and Xiong Fei captured Lao Ai and immediately brought them back to Yongcheng, waiting for Zhao Zheng's fate.

Upwards, Zhao Zheng announced a series of punishments for Lai Ai's party, and Lai Ai carried out the chariot splitting and exterminated the three clans.Lai Ai's best friends Wei Wei, Nei Shisi, Zoge Jie, Chinese doctor Ling Qi

Waiting for 20 people to be the leader, the guests who followed Lai Ai gave up others, and those who had minor crimes were paid by the ancestral temple-ghost salary; more than [-] people who committed serious crimes won the title and moved to Shu, where they were migrated for three years.

Standing on the court hall, Liu Ze listened to the punishment announced by Zhao Zheng. He felt that Zhao Zheng had clearly rewarded and punished him. He did not kill innocent people randomly, but only killed the mastermind. The average emperor is much better. In history, there was no treason, but blood flowed like a river.

After announcing the punishment for Lai Ai's party, Meng Yi stood up at this time, "Lao Ai was dedicated to the Queen Mother by Lu Xiang. Now, Lai Ai has such a boldness to seek rebellion, so Lu Xiang has nothing to say?" .

"I really don't know that Lai Ai has such great courage, and I ask the king to forgive me." Lu Buwei immediately knelt down.

At this time, a minister stood up and began to defend Lu Buwei, "Lu Xiang is not perfect, and there are times when he overlooks his eyes, and people's hearts are far away. Who knows that Lai Ai is so courageous that she dares to use the Queen Mother's favor to plot against you?" For a rebellious move, please Your Majesty see that Lu Xiang is working hard for Qin, bypassing him this time."

"That's right, Prime Minister Lu was also a victim of this incident. Lai Ai not only attacked the Qinian Palace, but also attacked Prime Minister Lu's residence. If the two generals Xiong Qi and Xiong Fei hadn't led troops to repel them, Lu Phase is also in danger."

"Lu Xiang conscientiously assisted the first emperor to ascend the throne, and later went to the state of Zhao to bring back the king. He was deeply trusted by the late emperor. He was also an assistant minister and made great contributions to the state of Qin."

"...".

Zhao Zheng looked at Lu Buwei, who was protected by the ministers, and Zhao Zheng knew that Lu Buwei would not be able to move today. With so many ministers protecting him, even though he is the king of Qin, he can't just go his own way. It will chill the hearts of the ministers. The support of the ministers is needed, but Lu Buwei's power is all over the court, and there will be a lot of pigtails if he is caught, so there is no rush anyway.

Zhao Zheng had a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth, but he would shirk responsibility. First, he pushed all the faults of Lai Ai to the queen mother, and then pointed out Lu Buwei's achievements over the years. Even if he had great achievements, not all of them have been rewarded Is it over?Assisting his father to ascend the throne, he was made a marquis and worshiped as a minister, and he was left alone by his father on his deathbed. He has controlled the Qin State government for so many years. Now, after making a mistake, he still wants to pay for it with credit. "Since this is the case, it is hard to escape the crime of failure to investigate, and the penalty will be fined for half a year, just to set an example to others," Zhao Zheng announced.

"Thank you, my lord." Lu Buwei heaved a sigh of relief, but he was only paid for half a year, anyway, he didn't live on his salary, so it didn't affect him much.With so many officials in the court pleading for him, Lu Buwei felt that his arrangement was effective. He had sensed that the king might attack him early in the morning. Taking advantage of the time when the king was chasing Lai Ai, he deliberately recruited some officials to fight against him in the court. The advantage of speaking for him is that he has many officials in his hands. Besides, he just gave the queen mother a male favorite. Several queen mothers in Daqin did not have male favorites, but this male favorite was courageous. If the big one dares to seek rebellion, it can only be blamed on the Queen Mother's excessive favor, which caused him to have unreasonable ambitions.

When Lao Ai was being executed, Liu Ze didn't dare to go, Liu Ze didn't go, and Zhao Zheng also stayed in Qinian Palace to accompany Liu Ze.

"Are you scared?" Zhao Zheng asked.

"A bit" He grew up so big, he has never seen a dead person, let alone watched the execution, he was afraid of death, but he didn't have any pitiful emotions, everyone has to pay the price for what everyone has done However, he saw with his own eyes the triumphant and ugly face of Lai Ai when he led the soldiers into the Qinian Palace. He was about to kill Zhao Zheng, so he had to spare his life. Repay virtue, repay virtue with virtue and repay grievance with straightness.

"Then Liu brother should get used to it earlier, in the future, such things will not be less." Zhao Zheng had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were very deep. He tried his best not to let him go, he only hoped to have this kind of warmth by himself.

"Huh? Someone will plot against you?" Liu Ze asked in surprise.

Zhao Zheng smiled, "Everyone wants this chair, not only from Qin State, but also from Zhao State, Chu State, and Qi State... too many people want it."

Hearing what Zhao Zheng said, Liu Ze suddenly shuddered. He remembered an article he had learned in middle school, "Jing Ke Assassins Qin". Although it was unsuccessful, the writing was very critical, "Then What? If our soldiers didn’t defend yesterday, we would be dead?”.

Zhao Zheng nodded, "However, everything is under the control of the widow, how could the widow put Brother Liu in danger."

Liu Ze thought for a while, but even so, there are still things that are not under his control, such as Jing Ke, he thinks that for his own life, he can get out the bulletproof suit first, the bulletproof suit can even prevent bullets, cold Weapons should not be a problem, now they have armor, he has seen Meng Yi's armor, the armor of the generals is basically made of leather and iron, the armor of ordinary soldiers is made of leather and bamboo It is not all made of iron as shown on TV. In ancient times, iron was very precious. Secondly, iron is very heavy, which is a heavy burden on horses and human bodies. Furthermore, it is inconvenient to move.

"What are you thinking about?" Zhao Zheng asked as Liu Ze was lost in thought.

"I was thinking, is there anything that can't be pierced by a knife or gun?" Liu Ze subconsciously replied.

"There really is such a thing?" Zhao Zheng asked quickly, this is a magical weapon used on the battlefield, why is there such a thing, why worry about Daqin's inability to rule the world.

Seeing Zhao Zheng's eagerness, Liu Ze nodded subconsciously, "Yes, but I don't know how to do it." What is a bulletproof suit, military needs, where ordinary people can get it, 999 may know How to do it, but he doesn't know how to do it. He knows the style, but he is at a loss as to what material to use and how to obtain this material.

"You can find a craftsman to make it," Zhao Zheng said in his heart, just like the heated kang, as long as the little god gives a general idea, the heated kang can always be made out.

Liu Ze blinked, thought for a while, and said, "Then can you find something invulnerable? This kind of thing has to be light, not as heavy as steel."

"This..." If there is such a material, that kind of armor has already been produced.

"That's right, it's hard." Liu Ze spread his hands helplessly, thinking: 999, when will you wake up, I need you.

Every day, the supervisory officials would come to report the progress of the execution to Zhao Zheng. Although only the main criminal was killed, the Lai Ai family belonged to three clans. Looking for a relationship with Lao Ai, I just want to use her relationship to climb up. In order to make Lao Ai more useful, everyone wants to be Lao Ai's son. Now that something has happened, it is natural for everyone to eradicate it.

Although it was only the three tribes, there were quite a few people, and the execution had to be time-sensitive, and it could only be carried out at noon, after noon, it would have to wait for the next day, so it would take three days just to kill these people.

Lao Ai was broken by a car, and the carriage that escorted him passed the street, and the common people threw vegetable leaves and rotten eggs on the prison cart one after another. For the Qin royal family, the common people still have a good impression of it. Governing the country according to the law, for ordinary people, life is easy It’s much better, of course, some nobles’ privileges are not without, but they are greatly restrained, and Qin’s soldiers are strong and horses are strong, among the seven kingdoms, they are very tough, so the people of Qin are more powerful than the other six kingdoms. The people of the country feel more secure.

The people spontaneously threw vegetables, leaves, and rotten eggs at Lai Ai, but Meng Yi, who was escorting her, didn't stop him. He was going to die anyway, so could this person jump up from the underworld to seek revenge on him?If you are not greedy enough, you have to suffer the consequences.

Meng Yi sat aside and waited for the arrival of noon, and Lao Ai also knelt quietly and waited beside him. At this moment, no one knew what was going on in Lai Ai's mind, and no one wanted to know what was going on in his mind.

Time passed quickly, and when it was almost noon, Lao Ai suddenly moved. He looked at the sundial in the distance, and it soon pointed to noon. He couldn't help but look at Meng Yi, "General Meng, can I finally ask Are you one thing?".

"You said?" Asked the question, he didn't have to answer.

"Is my son still alive?" Lao Ai asked in an extremely weak voice.

Meng Yi stood up, walked up to Lao Ai, and said, "I didn't expect you to be so affectionate, it's really rare."

"They are my sons after all".

"They're dead, they'll be slaughtered," Meng Yi replied directly.

"The Queen Mother didn't keep them?" Lao Ai trembled all over, why didn't the Queen Mother keep them?Or the Queen Mother saw that he was defeated, so she dedicated her two sons to Zhao Zheng to protect herself. "That poisonous woman, those are her own sons. How could she, how could she abandon them for her own glory and wealth? They are still so young."

Meng Yi didn't quite understand what Lai Ai said, but it didn't stop him from mocking, "Isn't the king also her son? And she didn't steal the king's imperial seal for you."

When Lai Ai heard it, she felt as if she was hit hard, "I shouldn't trust her too much, she is a poisonous woman, a poisonous woman", thinking that her hope of luck was completely shattered, she couldn't help feeling sad

Come on, he was deeply injured and didn't cry. He clearly saw hope, but in the end he could only be in despair. He didn't cry. He didn't cry after he learned the punishment for his whole clan, but now he couldn't help it anymore. He didn't hate Zhao Zheng After all, winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs. He lost and deserved to be punished. However, he hated the Queen Mother and hated her for not being able to protect their children. He culled them. His two children were alive. was thrown to death.

Meng Yi raised his eyebrows when he heard Lao Ai scolding the queen mother, isn't she a poisonous woman?Not only is she poisonous but also stupid, she has done so many things for Lao Ai, and now, the sweetheart she has been thinking of is also calling her a poisonous woman.

Lai Ai cried very sadly, and the death of the two children proved that his blood was cut off at this point.

After all, the time was coming, Meng Yi heard the soldiers coming to report, he retreated, and gave up the home court to the executioners.

Several strong men came over, grabbed Lao Ai, tied her head and four hands to five chariots, put the chariot on horses, and let the five horses pull her from different places... ..

After Lai Ai was executed, Zhao Zheng and the others began to pack their things and prepare to return to Xianyang.

Talking about going back to Xianyang, Liu Ze was quite happy. After all, you just got a new house, and you went outside after two days of living. You feel a little unlucky, he is not familiar with that house yet.
