Amidst the bells and drums, the palace gates of Xianyang Palace opened.
Li Che followed the officials into the Xianyang Palace and saw the Qin Guards with dragon flags and black armor.
The weapons of these Qin soldiers were sharp and filled with killing intent.
"As expected of a strong army that defeated the six countries.”
Li Che looked at the Qin army in Xianyang Palace. These Qin soldiers were all battle-hardened. If he used them to conquer Rome, it would be an exciting game of chess!
There were many officials in the Qin Dynasty. Li Si was the leader of the civil officials, and behind him were Wang Wan and Wei Liao.
Wang Wan was good at internal affairs and made great contributions to raising food for Qin Shihuang's expedition against the six countries.
Wei Liao was a representative of the militarists. His teacher was Guigu 'zi, and he was known as Wei Liaozi. In Li Che's eyes, Wei Liaozi was not only a military strategist, but also a schemer.
The reason why the six states could not unite was because Wei Liaozi had given Qin Shihuang a vicious plan. He bribed the officials of the six states with a large sum of money, causing them to be separated from each other, and the six states fell.
Wei Liaozi used 300,000 taels of gold to sow discord. He first killed Li Mu, then left Qi and Chu. In the end, the six countries were destroyed one by one and could not be united.
Eighteen years later, Liu Bang's strategist, Chen Ping, studied Wei Liaozi's military book and used 40,000 taels of gold to drive a wedge between the Chu generals and Fan Zeng. He forced Zhong Li to his death and cut off Xiang Yu's left and right arms.
In the Great Qin Dynasty Hall, Qin Shi Huang had been very confident in Wei Liao's plans. After entering the Hall of Qin in Xianyang Palace, Li Che, who was standing in the imperial court, took a few more glances at Wei Liao...
Wei Liao's attributes appeared in Li Che's vision.
Wei Liao. (Representative of the military, author Wei Liaozi, teacher of Guigu 'zi.)）
[Strength: 60]
[Stamina: 60]
Intelligence: 80
[Military strategy: 100]
[Power Manipulation: 40]
[Special characteristics: Military strategy, divination, teaching]
Li Che looked at Wei Liao's stats and realized that Wei Liao's political skills were very low. A political skill of 40 was basically indifferent to fame and fortune. As for an intelligence of 80, it was already very high.
It was impossible for anyone to be as intelligent as Li Si.
What really made Li Che's eyes light up was the strategy and characteristics.
Wei Liao's Military Strategy had reached 100 points, and Li Che had seen through Li Si's attributes. Among all the Qin Generals, only Wang Ben's combat strength had reached 100 points, and Meng Tian's attributes had not exceeded 100 points.
Wang Jian was already very old. When Wang Jian was at his peak, his commander rank had reached 120…
This Wei Liao couldn't be underestimated.
……
Ying Zheng had yet to attend the court session, and the civil and military officials in the main hall were chatting in low voices.
The court of the Warring States Period was different from the later dynasties.
After the officials entered the hall, they took their seats. In front of them were long tables with tea leaves and kettles. The palace attendants served tea for the officials.
The civil and military officials knelt behind the long table. Each of them had a blanket around their knees. The blanket was five inches high and very soft. When they knelt on the blanket, their knees would not hurt. After kneeling, they lifted their skirts and covered the blanket.
The king was also kneeling on the main seat.
Right now, Great Qin did not have anything like a chair, and as for the throne, it was even more ethereal.
Li Che looked at the officials in the hall and thought,"" It's still more comfortable to be an official in the Warring States Period. If it was in the Tang, Song, Yuan, and Ming Dynasties, not to mention kneeling with the emperor, even looking at him would be disrespectful…Even in the Qing Dynasty, one had to kneel…"
Just as Li Che was lamenting about the status of the officials of the Qin Dynasty, he felt someone pat him on the shoulder. Li Che turned around and realized that the person who patted him on the back was General Meng Yi.
"Li Tingwei, there were too many people outside the palace just now.”
"What is it?" Li Che leaned back and approached Meng Yi.
"Chief Li, you're in charge of the law. The king will definitely propose to repair the law today. I hope you could mention my name and let me participate in the repair of the law…"
Meng Yi's words made Li Che feel a little incredulous.
Meng Yi was good at raising weapons and internal affairs, but he was not the most proficient in law. Why did he want to interfere?
Seeing Li Che's confusion, Meng Yi explained,""Commandant Li, you might not know this, but the Six Nations have already been destroyed, and there aren't many wars going on, so it's hard to obtain military merits. I want to help Great Qin's soldiers gain military merits…"
Li Che immediately understood Meng Yi's intentions.
In Meng Yi's eyes, Li Che was completely different from his brother Li Si. Li Si was a ruthless prime minister, while Li Che was a national scholar who dared to speak out. Among all the civil and military officials in the court, Li Che was the most trustworthy and fair person.
It was because of Li Che's fairness that he should be responsible for the criminal law of Qin.
"I don't have the final say in this matter. Moreover, the King of Qin hasn't arrived yet. No one knows if the King of Qin will propose to revise the law.”
"Don't worry, Commandant Li. The six states have been destroyed, and in order to win the hearts of the people, the revision of the laws is of utmost importance! I think we should choose between Li Xiangbang, the chief justice and Zhao Gao…"
After Meng Yi finished speaking, Li Che turned to look at Meng Yi. At this moment, Meng Yi's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Although Meng Yi didn't say it explicitly, Li Che could hear the meaning behind his words.
"If Lord Li is willing to take on the heavy responsibility of repairing the Qin technique, then the Meng Clan is willing to help!”
Meng Shi and Zhao Gao were on bad terms. Two years ago, Zhao Gao committed a crime. Meng Yi was responsible for interrogating Zhao Gao and sentenced him to death. He was stripped of his official rank. If Qin Shihuang had not come forward to plead for mercy, Zhao Gao would have died.
However, even though Qin Shihuang had stepped in, Zhao Gao still couldn't escape the punishment. He was beaten sixty times by Meng Yi, almost breaking his kneecaps. From then on, Zhao Gao and the Meng brothers were like fire and water.
If Zhao Gao was the one to fix the law, then the Meng family's soldiers would be affected. Therefore, it was best for Li Che to fix the Qin laws alone!
If they had to add one more person, they could only add Li Si…
The King of Qin had yet to appear, but Li Che could already feel the undercurrents in the court.
This Zhao Gao actually made Meng tribe so wary…
Fusu died in Zhao Gao.
The Meng family died in Zhao Gao.
Li Si died in Zhao Gao.
The Great Qin perished because of Zhao Gao…
This Zhao Gao was definitely not as simple as an ordinary eunuch!
"General Meng, if His Majesty the King of Qin asks me to fix the laws, I will definitely do something for the people of Great Qin and reduce the corvee.”
Li Che's words came from the bottom of his heart. He would definitely do his best to stop Qin Shihuang from repairing the mausoleum and the Great Wall. Li Che wanted to use these people's strength in a more valuable way!
Hearing Li Che's words, Meng Yi suddenly felt the burden on his shoulders lighten.
Yesterday, when he and his brother Meng Tian were discussing the matter, they had already considered the candidates for the law.
Li Si and Zhao Gao were not the most suitable candidates because their selfish desires were too strong. If they were asked to fix the law, they would definitely try their best to please the King of Qin. In order to satisfy the King of Qin's preferences, they would definitely formulate a more stringent military service system.
Thus, a candidate appeared in front of them.
Li Che, the chief justice of the Supreme Court who was in charge of the criminal prison and the laws of the world!
Li Che was one of the nine ministers and held a high position. His brother was Li Si, the prime minister, and had many followers in the court.
If he could convince him, no matter how much the King of Qin trusted Zhao Gao, he could only leave the matter of repairing the law to Li Che.
In the eyes of the Meng brothers, Li Che and his brother Li Si had different personalities. Li Ting Wei was open-minded, magnanimous, and impartial. If they could help him become the person who would change the laws of Qin, it would be a blessing for the soldiers and the people of Great Qin!
When they saw Li Che outside the palace today, Li Si was there, so the Meng brothers didn't talk to him.
Now that they were in the court, Meng Yi deliberately chose to sit behind Li Che and discuss important matters with him.
