Zhao Mu drove the carriage to Xianyang Palace, while Xia Houying drove the carriage.
Zhao Mu made a trip to Pei County and moved all of Liu Bang's assets to Xianyang.
Xiao He, Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo, Cao Can, Xiahou Ying…
In addition to these meritorious deeds, Lu Zhi and his sister had also come to Xianyang. For Xiao He and Fan Kuai, it was a great honor to follow Zhao Mu to Xianyang.
Who didn't want to become famous and become a marquis?
Who would be willing to slaughter dogs and sell meat in the countryside?
It was just that life forced him to do so.
If there was a chance, who wouldn't want to return to their hometown?
……
Phew--
Zhao Mu's carriage stopped outside Xianyang Palace. Wang Jian, Li Si, Wei Liao, and the others were waiting outside for the court session.
When everyone saw the Marquis Champion's carriage arrive, they made way for him. The Marquis Champion was in the limelight…
After Zhao Mu alighted from the carriage, he cupped his hands with Wang Jian, Li Si, and the others and exchanged a few pleasantries.
Xia Houying left Xianyang Palace in his carriage. Zhao Mu, Wang Jian, Li Si, and the others waited for the court session.
"I don't know what happened, but His Majesty urgently ordered the court to go!”
" Yes, when the palace staff reported, I was handling official business. I didn't even have time to pack my clothes before rushing over…"
Outside Xianyang Palace, the civil and military officials were whispering to each other, forming different small circles.
Zhao Mu was waiting for the palace door to open when someone tugged at his sleeve. Zhao Mu turned around and saw that it was Senior Minister Meng Yi.
"Marquis Champion, can we talk in private?"
Zhao Mu was a little curious. He followed Meng Yi to a place with fewer people. After the two of them bowed, Meng Yi said in a low voice,"Marquis Champion, if anything major happens in the court today, I hope you can lend me a hand…"
"Do you know what happened?”
Meng Yi looked around and moved closer to Zhao Mu. He said in a low voice,"I'm not sure about the specifics either! However, something important was bound to happen in court today!”
Hearing Meng Yi's words, Zhao Mu understood Meng Yi's thoughts. Meng Yi hoped to obtain the support of the Marquis Champion. In the Imperial Court, the Wang Clan and Meng Clan were the two great clans that were second only to the Ying Clan.
The Wang family grew from Wang Jian.
The Montessori family had prospered for three generations…
Meng Ao, Meng Wu…
The Meng family had relied on their battle achievements to reach the center of power in Great Qin.
Did the Montessori family need support?
Zhao Mu looked at Meng Yi, and he could see the passion in Meng Yi's eyes. That passion was the Meng family's loyalty to Great Qin.
"Alright, if something big happens in the court today, I will make a decision!”
As soon as Zhao Mu finished speaking, the door of Xianyang Palace opened wide, and Zhao Gao walked out.
When Zhao Gao saw the officials, he quickly bowed with a smile. He was respectful to everyone.
Even a gentleman would not be able to act like Zhao Gao.
Seeing Zhao Gao's humble face, Zhao Mu thought to himself,""Who would have thought that Zhao Gao, who single-handedly destroyed Great Qin, killed all of the Ying family's descendants, and killed all of Great Qin's civil and military officials, would actually have such a humble face…"
He was humble and polite. No matter who he met, he would always smile and not make an enemy of anyone…
Who would have thought that after Zhao Gao took off his humble mask, he would have a ferocious face full of fangs!
"Under the orders of the First Emperor, summon all the officials to the court!”
The chimes of the Great Qin Dynasty rang, and all the civil and military officials went to the palace!
……
Xianyang Palace's door opened.
The majestic Xianyang Palace appeared in front of Zhao Mu. This time, Zhao Mu entered the Xianyang Palace as a Marquis Champion.
The magnificent Xianyang Palace stood in front of him. The Forbidden City was already big enough. The Xianyang Palace was five times bigger than the Forbidden City.
The majestic palace was breathtaking!
Zhao Mu walked on the pathway to Xianyang Palace, and he couldn't help but sigh at the extravagance of Xianyang Palace and the skilled craftsmen of Great Qin!
The civil and military officials entered the hall.
Zhao Mu returned to the court and waited for the court session. Beside him was High Official Meng Yi.
……
Ying Zheng walked up to the main hall with a majestic gait, holding a bamboo slip tightly in his hand.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
After the civil and military officials paid their respects to the First Emperor, Ying Zheng waved his sleeve and said in a loud voice,""No need for formalities!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After all the officials and ministers sat down again, Ying Zheng looked at them and said,""I have a memorial in my hand. Dear ministers, guess what the content of this memorial is?”
As soon as Ying Zheng's words fell, all the officials and officials in the court were shocked.
Everyone turned to look at Ying Zheng's hand.
To guess the contents of the bamboo scroll in the First Emperor's hand?
This stumped everyone.
Seeing that no one responded, Ying Zheng asked loudly,""Could it be that no one knows the contents of this memorial?”
Right Prime Minister Feng Quji stood up and said,""Your Majesty, is there a rebellion in the Yue Country?”
"No!"
"However, the land of the Bai Yue has been a land of war since ancient times.”
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and said,""Beloved minister, why don't you take a guess?”
Li Si quickly stood up and said,""Your Majesty, in my opinion, the royal families of the six dynasties are unwilling to move to Xianyang!”
Pa!
Ying Zheng unfolded the bamboo slip and handed it to Li Si, saying,""Read!"
"Yes!"
Li Si walked out of the court and picked up the bamboo scroll. He read out the contents in front of all the officials.
After Great Qin destroyed the six states, they urged the royal families of the six states to move to Xianyang.
This memorial was written by the royal family of the Wei Kingdom to Ying Zheng.
The royal family of Wei had lived in the land of Wei for generations, and they would never leave the land of Wei!
After Li Si finished reading the Wei Kingdom's letter of credence, the entire court fell silent…
"It's not just the Wei royal family that doesn't want to move. The other five royal families also don't want to move to Xianyang! Could it be that there are tigers, leopards, and wolves in Xianyang?”
Qin Shi Huang's voice was like a great bell, echoing endlessly in the hall.
All the officials in the court remained silent and did not respond.
This was a tough job.
If anyone spoke at this time and the First Emperor asked them to deal with this matter, it would simply take their lives.
The six states had just been unified, and there were countless death warriors and assassins hidden within the six states.
Who would be willing to go to the old land of the six states and move the royal families of the six states to Xianyang?
This matter would not only be cursed by the people of the Six Nations, but there was also the risk of being assassinated!
Ying Zheng held the letter of credence of the Wei Kingdom in his hand, looked at all the officials and said,""Thinking back to when the civil and military officials of the Great Qin Dynasty pacified the six countries, they had all sorts of plans. Why aren't they speaking up today?”
Ying Zheng's voice echoed in the hall, but still, no one responded. If the important ministers in the court did not speak, how could the officials with lower official positions dare to speak?
Zhao Mu looked at Qin Shihuang holding a bamboo scroll in the main hall and stomping back and forth, provoking the officials, but no one stood up.
It was obvious that the civil and military officials were unwilling to offend the royal families of the six states. They were unwilling to bear the infamy.
Everyone wanted their names to go down in history without leaving a mark!
Zhao Mu looked at Ying Zheng standing alone in the main hall, holding up everything by himself, and his heart ached.
Zhao Mu thought about how he had worked so hard to return peace to the people of the world, but in the end, he only lived to 49 years old…
Why did he have to bear everything alone?
Zhao Mu looked at Ying Zheng with a pained expression, then stood up abruptly. He did not say a word. He just did not want to let Qin Shihuang face the world alone. At this moment, he only wanted to share some of the pressure for Qin Shihuang. As for whether there would be assassins, and whether he would be cursed by the people of the six dynasties, Zhao Mu did not care!
