Gao Yuan stopped, raised his hands to show that he did not bring a weapon, and let the Qin soldiers surround him, and said loudly: "In Xia Wuhe, it is still General Meng's old knowledge, and now there is something important to report to General Meng, so please also say hello." ”

Gao Yuan's words fell, and a man who looked like an officer standing in front of the gate was stunned, ran over from the steps in a few steps, and separated the crowd, and said, "Get out of the way, let me see, yes...... Alas, it's really Mr. Xia. After finishing speaking, he hurriedly saluted Gao Yuan and said, "Mr. Xia, it's really rude, we don't know it's you." ”

I also recognized this person through the firelight plateau, it turned out that his name was Meng Jie, and he was a family member with a certain identity in the Meng family, and when Gao Yuan lived in the Mongolian mansion, he had seen a doctor, so the mutual influence was more profound.

Of course, it is easy to talk when you see an acquaintance, Gao Yuan smiled and said, "You are Meng Jie." ”

Meng Jie hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I am Meng Jie, you still remember me." ”

When the other soldiers saw that they knew each other, their hostility was greatly reduced, so their guns and swords were also put down, not facing the plateau, and Meng Jie said, "Mr. Xia, how did you come to Handan?" ”

Gao Yuan said: "I can't hide it, I have something important to report to General Meng, so please help me report to the general, and I also have a companion who will also meet the general together." ”

Meng Jie listened and hurriedly said: "Okay, the general should not have rested yet, I will go to the general, Mr. Xia, please wait a moment." After finishing speaking, he said to the other soldiers: "You are guarding Mr. Xia here, don't be rude, I'll go in and inform the general." ”

After Meng Jie entered, Gao Yuan summoned Hehua, and the two waited at the door. Although Hehua was wearing women's clothes, she wore a cloak and a hood to cover her face, and the other soldiers also saw Meng Jie's attitude towards Gao Yuan, it seems that this person has a different relationship with the general, and several people still know the origin of Gao Yuan, so they don't dare to ask more.

After a while, I saw the door open, and the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi both came out of the mansion, and under the guidance of Meng Jie, they came to Gao Yuan, bowed to Gao Yuan, and said, "Mr. Xia, it's really you." ”

Gao Yuan also returned the salute and said, "Don't dare, it's reckless to come down, and you also brought a companion, so I ask the two of you to forgive your sins." ”

Meng Tian smiled and said: "There, there, no matter when and where, our Meng family welcomes Mr., and Mr.'s friends are friends of our Meng family, please don't see Mr. outside." ”

Gao Yuan said: "But when I came to Handan this time, there was indeed an important matter, I wanted to meet the general, and the relationship was important, so please bring the two of you to meet the general." ”

Meng Tian and Meng Yi saw that Gao Yuan said solemnly, and they didn't dare to slack off, Meng Yi hurriedly said: "Yes, father is waiting for Mr., please come with us." ”

Saying that, the two brothers led Gao Yuan and Hehua into the mansion together, at this time, Meng Wuji was waiting in front of the steps of the lobby, and when he saw Gao Yuan coming, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, and said, "Mr. Xia has not seen him for several years, and he has always been good." ”

Gao Yuan returned the salute and said: "General, I won't say kind words, I came to see the general this time, there is an important matter, which is related to the Qin State, and it is the safety of the king." ”

After hearing this, Meng Wu couldn't help but be taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Okay, please come with me." ”

The group walked into the lobby, and Meng Wu dismissed the servant, and then said, "Sir, please say, what's the matter?" ”

Gao Yuan pointed at Hehua and said, "General, please see who she is?" ”

At this time, He Hua took off the hood of his cloak and revealed his face, and Meng Wu, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi, father and son, couldn't help but be shocked all over, and almost said in unison: "Princess." ”

He Hua nodded and said, "It's me, Mr. Xia and I rushed to Handan, and there is indeed something important, but let Mr. Xia say it." ”

Gao Yuan only then staged a coup d'état in Xianyang, and now he has told the whole Xianyang story, but when it comes to himself, he made up a set of lies, saying that he ended his practice of traveling and wanted to turn back to Xianyang, just in time for this coup, and happened to meet Hehua who escaped from the palace, so he escaped from Xianyang with Hehua and rushed to Handan to report to Qin Wangzheng.

After listening to Gao Yuan's speech, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi first found it difficult to send a letter, because they really didn't receive any news in Handan, and they didn't believe that Han Teng really dared to launch a coup d'état in Xianyang? But after thinking about it carefully, they were a little skeptical, their father and son had a good impression of Gao Yuan, and they didn't think that Gao Yuan was lying, and even if Gao Yuan's words were unreliable, but He Hua was the daughter of Qin Wangzheng, and with her as a witness, he couldn't believe it.

At this time, He Hua said: "General, the situation is urgent now, and it is related to the survival of the Qin State, but Mr. Xia has a clever plan to turn the Qin State into a safe one, so please arrange for us to meet our father immediately, and we must not hesitate." ”

Meng Wu thought for a while, finally nodded, and said, "Okay, please princess and Mr. Xia immediately go to the palace with us to meet the king." ”

Gao Yuan and Hehua were relieved when they heard this, they could finally see Qin Wangzheng, at least half of the success.

Once the decision was made, Meng Wu was quite capable, and immediately changed clothes with Meng Tian and Meng Yi, and then ordered someone to prepare a carriage and rush to the palace with Gao Yuan and Hehua.

Although it was late at night, Meng Wu's identity was naturally able to run rampant in Handan City, so a group of carriages and horses quickly rushed to the palace gate, Meng Wu asked Gao Yuan, Hehua, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi to wait in front of the palace gate, and he went to the palace to meet Qin Wangzheng and reported these things to Qin Wangzheng first.

At this time, Qin Wangzheng had already fallen asleep, but Qin Wangzheng has always been diligent in government affairs, and he has never delayed government affairs, and this is the first-line battlefield, the military situation is urgent, and Meng Wu is one of the important ministers of Qin, so he asked to see Qin Wangzheng, even if Qin Wangzheng has already slept, the inner servant must also report to Mengwu. Sure enough, not long after, the chamberlain returned, and King Qin Zhengjing got up and summoned Meng Wu.

After Meng Wu entered the meeting, after about half an hour, I saw Zhao Gao come out of the palace and announce the order of Qin Wangzheng, inviting Gao Yuan, Hehua, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi to enter the palace and meet Qin Wangzheng. Zhao Gao can be said to be Qin Wangzheng's confidant and chamberlain, and he is also the most powerful eunuch in Qin's palace.

Everyone followed Zhao Gao into the palace and saw Qin Wangzheng in the side hall. I saw Qin Wangzheng dressed in civilian clothes, sitting on a low couch, one side was empty, and he didn't bring a crown, just pulled a cow's heart hair curl and pinned it with a hosta, which was indeed a woman who had just been woken up.

However, the news brought by Meng Wu obviously had a great impact on Qin Wangzheng, and his brows were slightly furrowed, but after seeing the plateau, he still smiled and said: "I didn't expect to see Mr. Xia here again, this time Mr. Xia traveled thousands of miles to protect Hehua and came to Handan to inform the widow about the changes in Xianyang, the widow is really grateful, if the widow can return to Xianyang, he will report to Mr. Da." ”

He Hua was a little surprised, because listening to Qin Wangzheng's tone, he didn't seem to doubt it, so he said, "Father, do you believe our words?" ”

Qin Wangzheng nodded lightly, motioned for Hehua to sit beside him, and then said: "Since the widow entered Handan, there has been no news from Xianyang, and now the widow has been in Handan for more than ten days, but there is no army to reinforce Handan, just based on these two things, you can know that something must have happened in Xianyang, and the original widow changed his route to Handan halfway, because Han Teng informed the widow that the Han army was going to attack Handan, so if something happened in Xianyang, Han Teng must be inseparable." ”

After Gao Yuan listened, he also breathed a sigh of relief, although the historical evaluation of Qin Wangzheng is mixed and controversial, but there is one thing that is not controversial, that is, Qin Wangzheng is definitely not a faint monarch, especially Qin Wangzheng before becoming Qin Shi Huang, it can be described as wise and resolute, and now it seems that it is really good.

And as long as Qin Wangzheng believes in his own words, it will be easy to do, because as long as Qin Wangzheng believes that Xianyang has been controlled by Han Teng, then he should understand that the only way to turn the tables is to unite with the Han State, then the rest of the matter will be much easier to talk about.

At this time, Qin Wangzheng and He Gaoyuan arched his hand and said: "I heard that Mr. has a clever plan to teach the widow, and now that the situation is critical, please ask Mr. to give advice." ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Actually, there is no good way to do it, but the king's only plan is now, and only by uniting with the Han State can he recapture Xianyang." ”

Listening to Gao Yuan's words, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, Meng Yi and his son were stunned, they didn't expect that Gao Yuan would be like this, but He Hua was a little nervous, not knowing how Qin Wangzheng would react to Gao Yuan's words. But Qin Wangzheng had a calm face, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes.

It turned out that after listening to Meng Wu's report, Qin Wangzheng had already thought that the current situation could only be recaptured by making peace with the Han State. It's just that Qin Wangzheng didn't know what happened between Qi and Chu, and thought that Han Teng wanted to take advantage of the fierce competition between Qin and Han, Qi and Chu, and when he was dragged in Handan, he took the risk to seize Xianyang and control Qin. But the foundation is not stable, as long as he can lead the army to counterattack Xianyang, most of the places will return to themselves, and it is not difficult to recover Xianyang.

However, there must be a premise for this, that is, the Three Kingdoms of Han, Qi and Chu will stop attacking Qin from now on. Since it was a Han army, it was necessary to make way for the Qin army and let the Qin army leave Handan.

Of course, Qin Wangzheng also knows that in this way, Handan will definitely not be able to hold it, but if Handan can be exchanged for letting the Qin army leave safely, Qin Wangzheng is also willing, and even Qin Wangzheng has decided that even if he uses the land of the Three Jin Dynasty in exchange for the strike of the three kingdoms of Qin and Han, Qi and Chu, he will not hesitate, after all, the top priority now is to recover Xianyang first.
