Wandering the Heavens

"General Meng, is what Mr. Yu said true?" The Emperor Qin was already extremely worried about Yu Shu's illness, and Yi Xiaochuan was adding to the trouble.

"Your Majesty, this person is highly suspected of committing a crime." Yi Xiaochuan said firmly.

"General Meng, may I ask why I want to kidnap the Queen Tuan you mentioned?" Yu Xian asked calmly.

"General Meng, you really should tell me why Mr. Yu wanted to kidnap Concubine Li's mother?"

A great country should act like a great country. Today, there are historians present. If I can't even make a confusing judgment on a case, what will people in later generations think when they see this record?

"Well, Yu Xian, shouldn't you explain yourself?" Yi Xiaochuan threw the question over.

"Your Majesty, there is a saying in my hometown: whoever makes the claim must provide evidence. Now it is General Meng who says that I have kidnapped someone, and it is General Meng who should produce evidence to prove that I am guilty." Yu Xian kicked the ball to Emperor Qin.

"Whoever makes the claim must provide evidence. This makes sense! General Meng, please show us the evidence!" Emperor Qin also stood on Yu Xian's side.

Yi Xiaochuan was dumbfounded. He had no evidence at all. He just thought that Yu Xian might be the one who kidnapped Queen Tuan, so he led his troops to capture him. Thinking of Yu Xian's martial arts skills, he dispatched a total of 300 people, and 30% of the palace guards were withdrawn.

The atmosphere at the scene was a little awkward for a moment, but fortunately, at this time the personal eunuch came to report that Meng Tian and Zhao Gao wanted to see him.

The Emperor Qin glanced at everyone present and finally summoned them in. During the period, Yu Xian requested to leave on the grounds that his status was not appropriate, but was rejected by the Emperor Qin.

A moment later, Meng Tian and Zhao Gao walked in side by side, and Meng Tian was the first to salute.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my impoliteness in front of you."

Everyone was wondering what Meng Tian was going to do, but he turned around and kicked Yi Xiaochuan in the back of the knee, and the latter instantly fell to his knees.

"Why is General Meng doing this?" Emperor Qin wondered.

"Your Majesty, my brother is a general in charge of guarding the palace. When the Hun assassins threatened Your Majesty's safety, he actually mobilized the palace guards to leave their posts and arrest people at will, and even brought them into the palace. Fortunately, Mr. Yu is a good friend of yours. If it was an assassin sent by the restoration of the old six kingdoms, or a strong man with malicious intentions, I dare not imagine what serious consequences would have occurred." Meng Tian also knelt down and apologized.

"Zhao Gao, what do you think?" The Qin Emperor looked at Zhao Gao, who was standing next to him like a quail. He did not expect Meng Tian to be so straightforward.

"Your Majesty, General Meng Tian is loyal to the core and has made great contributions to your Majesty and the Qin Dynasty. However, General Meng Yi left home at a young age and had no brother to teach him. As a result, he was not as good as his brothers in handling some matters. I think that removing General Meng Yi from his position would be an explanation for this matter. Since the Hun assassin is still in hiding, I will let General Meng Yi be responsible for the investigation to atone for his sins." Zhao Gao thought for a moment and then reported his opinion.

"You! Everyone says that you, Zhao Gao, and the Meng family are mortal enemies, but why are you pleading for them now?" The Qin Emperor looked at Zhao Gao and then at the Meng brothers kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, we are all loyal to your Majesty and are fighting for the Great Qin. We just handle things in different positions, so naturally there are differences. But everyone has the same heart towards your Majesty." Zhao Gao said it better.

"Meng Tian, Meng Yi, did you hear it? Do as Zhao Fuling said! Meng Yi is relieved of his post as the general in front of the emperor, and will be assigned to another position after the Hun assassin is captured." The Qin Emperor was just flattered by Zhao Gao, so he did not punish Yi Xiaochuan.

"I thank Your Majesty for his grace and thank Lord Zhao for his guidance." Meng Tian felt quite ashamed.

Yi Xiaochuan was very unconvinced, but he was powerless, so he followed suit and bowed.

"Okay, Meng Tian and Meng Yi, you go down and investigate the Hun assassins! Zhao Gao and Mr. Yu stay for a while." The Qin Emperor remembered something.

Meng Tian quickly dragged Meng Yi out of the hall, leaving only the Qin emperor's remnant Zhao Gao, the historian who was recording, and several eunuchs and palace maids.

"Mr. Yu, could you tell me about the rituals of the Yelang King's birthday palace?" When the Qin Emperor saw that everyone who should leave had left, he asked Yu Xian about the funeral of the Yelang King.

"Your Majesty, the land of Yelang is rugged, with many mountains and rocks. Therefore, the king's longevity palace built here cannot be compared with that of the Qin Dynasty. There is no underground palace. They are all buried on the ground by leveling a piece of land near the mountain." Yu Xian rolled his eyes secretly. How would he know how the tomb of the King of Yelang was built?

"This..." Emperor Qin felt that Yu Xian was playing tricks.

"Your Majesty, Prince Fusu and Mr. Yu are close friends. I'm sure Prince Fusu is aware of these circumstances." Zhao Gao saw that the atmosphere was about to become awkward, so he quickly stepped out to speak.

Thinking of that stubborn son, anyone who can chat with him naturally wouldn't be a smart person.

"To be honest, my longevity palace has been under construction for many years, but I always feel like something is missing." The Qin Emperor also had worries.

The Qin Emperor simply took the two of them to the small sample of the Qin Emperor's underground palace.

Looking at the scaled-down underground palace mausoleum, Yu Xian's drool was about to flow. If he could bring such an exquisite model back home, he could sell it for a sky-high price on the spot.

"When my ancestors traveled around China, they saw that the armies of various countries were strong but the people's lives were difficult. Now your Majesty has unified the world, the six kings have been eliminated, the world is one, there is no more war, the wheel gauge and writing system are standardized, and the weights and measures are unified. This is the greatest achievement of all. I have seen your Majesty's birthday palace, which has mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, the sun, the moon, and the stars, but lacks the Qin soldiers who expanded the territory for your Majesty." Yu Xian snatched Yi Xiaochuan's opportunity to make a suggestion.

The unspoken rule of digital product reviews on Bilibili is that anything not mentioned is a shortcoming. Yu Xian only talked about the historical achievements of the Qin Emperor, without mentioning the real people's livelihood. In order to race against time with God, the Qin Emperor had to overdraw the people's power on a large scale to build various national projects, which greatly affected agricultural production and gave the old nobles of the six countries a reason to incite rebellion.

"The six kings are gone, and the world is one." The Qin Emperor repeated these words, and Zhao Gao also smiled.

Who says that foreigners have poor culture? Just look at Mr. Yu, he is quite good!

Yu Xian thought to himself that if they had listened to the entire story, he would probably have to be tortured seven or eight times before dying.

"My great army, the elite warriors of the Great Qin. What do you think, sir?" The Emperor of Qin knew that Yu Xian would not say this for no reason.

Appearance is determined by the heart, and he knew that Yu Xian would never say something like letting a living person be buried with him.

"I think that Your Majesty can summon craftsmen to make human figurines of the same size in the shape of the soldiers in front of the palace, and paint them with colors. In accordance with the number of soldiers in a complete army formation covering all kinds of soldiers, have them guard Your Majesty's palace forever and fight for Your Majesty forever." Yu Xian did not make his words too clear.

It is definitely not a good thing for an outsider to know the military structure of the Qin Dynasty very well.

"Good! Mr. Yu has spoken the truth. My longevity palace will be guarded by such an army! Summon Li Si, Fengchang and Shaofu here." The Emperor of Qin was in a good mood.

"Sir, you are truly a talented person!" Zhao Gao said this in an attempt to win over Yu Xian.
