Chapter 313: Dying? [1 update]
However, under Meng Yi's defense, no matter how many assassins came, it was useless, and they either escaped by luck or were killed by Meng Yi's army.
Almost every day, more than a dozen corpses are hung outside the Dune Palace, and among these corpses there are even innate powerhouses, which shows that for the sake of fame and fortune, I don't know how many people want to kill the First Emperor.
Fang Xiaoyu haunted near the Dune Palace, estimating the time in his heart, if he expected it to be true, it would not be long before the elixir was about to be born, even if it was Bian Que, it would be impossible to destroy the elixir in order to delay the time when the elixir was born.
After all, the elixir has entrusted Bian Que with countless efforts, even if he knew that the birth of the elixir was likely to make the First Emperor immortal, but Bian Que still put all his mind into refining the elixir.
In the Dune Palace, in a palace filled with a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine, a figure walked out of it, wearing a palace robe and a cover, looking very slender and moving, who is not the princess Yushu who is not accompanying her.
Outside the palace, Meng Yi, who was dressed in armor, flashed a bright color in his eyes when he saw Princess Yushu, and took a step forward and said, "The last general, Meng Yi, I have seen Concubine Li, I don't know how His Majesty's injuries are." ”
Princess Yushu also looked slightly strange when she saw Meng Yi, and she only heard Princess Yushu say to Meng Yi: "General Meng, Your Majesty summoned you to go, I'm afraid there is something important to order." ”
Meng Yi glanced deeply at Princess Yushu, passed by her, straightened her spine and walked into the room.
In the room, Zhao Gao and several attendants were serving beside him, while the First Emperor was lying on the sickbed with a pale face, looking terminally ill.
I didn't see the First Emperor in just two or three days, and suddenly when I saw the First Emperor like this, even Meng Yi was startled and his expression changed.
However, Meng Yi tightened his duty, stepped forward and saluted: "The last general will meet Your Majesty." ”
The First Emperor glanced at Meng Yi, and seemed to have made great efforts to say to Meng Yi: "Meng Yi, I have received the will, the elixir has been successfully refined, and it is about to be born. ”
Even if he was lying on the sickbed, the words of the First Emperor were still murderous and chilling.
Meng Yi was slightly stunned, and immediately received the order: "The last general has the order." ”
Seeing Meng Yi turn around and leave, the First Emperor said to Zhao Gao, who was standing aside: "Zhao Gao, you give an order, wait for Meng Yi to take the elixir, and order the military horses stationed in the Qixian Valley to step on the Qixian Valley for me, and no one in the valley will be allowed to let go." ”
Zhao Gao said: "The old slave is in charge." ”
In the barracks outside the Dune Palace, thousands of elites defended the entire Dune Palace without leaking.
Meng Yi looked at the hundreds of private soldiers in front of him with a solemn expression, these private soldiers were Meng Yi's personal guards, and with his status, the number of private soldiers reached more than 300 people.
It is not an easy thing to go to the Immortal Valley to get the elixir, there must be many dangers along the way, and I don't know how many people will stop him from bringing the elixir back.
Therefore, Meng Yi knows that this is a road full of murderous opportunities, and it can be said that those who go with him this time must be prepared to die or live.
These private soldiers are all people who have followed him for several years, and even many of them are domestic slaves who grew up with him, and Meng Yi has deep feelings for these people.
At this time, looking at these private soldiers standing in front of him, Meng Yi said in a deep voice: "Those who have only children in the family are listed, and those who have parents and children in the family are listed......"
Soon more than 100 people came out, although these people were puzzled, they still stood up according to Meng Yi's orders.
Meng Yi glanced at the remaining private soldiers and said, "The rest of the sons, wearing armor and sharp, follow me to meet the elixir." ”
"Whoa!"
A group of private soldiers were suddenly awe-inspiring, and those private soldiers who stood up reacted, to be selected as private soldiers is not only to be strong enough, but also to be too dull, so these private soldiers immediately realized Meng Yi's intentions.
Several private soldiers immediately stepped forward and said to Meng Yi: "General, this is a dangerous place, as a general's private soldiers, we should be a shield for the general, and charge into battle for the general. ”
Hundreds of private soldiers who had originally stood up immediately became furious, shouting that they would live and die with Meng Yi.
Meng Yi's eyes were faintly sour, this was a point of no return, that is, he was not completely sure that he could bring back the elixir alive, and bringing these people would completely harm everyone.
Poof, poof, one by one the figures knelt down in front of Meng Yi, staring at Meng Yi with firm and fearless eyes.
Nangong Yan and Bai Mo, who were standing beside Meng Yi, couldn't help but speak: "General, just take them, one more person has more strength." ”
Meng Yi's gaze swept over the private soldier who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.
"We swear to follow the general, swear to follow the general!"
Meng Yi turned around suddenly, flicked his cloak and shouted, "Get on the horse and set off with me." ”
Hundreds of elite private soldiers turned over and got on their horses with Meng Yi, and the horses neighed and left the barracks with billowing smoke and dust.
Not long after Meng Yi left, several figures appeared outside the Dune Palace, it was Zhao Gao and Li Si.
Zhao Gao squinted his eyes at Meng Yi's departing figure and said lightly: "Prime Minister, do you think Your Majesty can survive this crisis this time." ”
Li Si's expression was stunned, and he glanced at Zhao Gao in surprise, he was very puzzled why Zhao Gao asked this, although it was said that the situation of the First Emperor was very bad, and he looked like he would not be alive soon, but now the First Emperor had sent Meng Yi to get the elixir.
As long as the elixir is retrieved, the First Emperor will naturally be safe and sound.
Could it be that suddenly, Li Si looked up at Zhao Gao, and Zhao Gao had a sinister smile on his face, as if he had seen through Li Si's thoughts and said: "Cheng quite knows that if Your Majesty is immortal, I am afraid that there will be no future." ”
Li Si said lightly: "I am the prime minister of Great Qin, one person is above ten thousand people, what more can I ask for." ”
Zhao Gao glanced at Li Si disdainfully and said: "The prime minister is just an ornament, Your Majesty has the power alone, doesn't the prime minister want to taste the taste of being in power and making a promise?" ”
Li Si's expression changed, and he pointed at Zhao Gao and said, "CRRC Mansion Order, what do you mean by this." ”
Zhao Gao sneered and said: "Prime Minister, don't forget, Your Majesty's most favored are the Mengshi brothers, and General Meng Tian is a talented general and prime minister, I think the position of prime minister will not be able to sit steadily, he will be taken by Meng Tian one day." ”
Li Si's expression suddenly became extremely difficult to look at, because Zhao Gao said what he was worried about, as the important minister of the First Emperor, Li Si of course saw clearly, Meng Tian replacing himself was almost inevitable, but Li Si was unwilling to admit this on weekdays.
Now that it was exposed by Zhao Gao, Li Si couldn't help but feel a resentment towards the First Emperor in his heart, only to hear Li Si coldly say to Zhao Gao: "If Lord Zhao has anything to say, just say it." ”
Zhao Gao said gloomily: "We will never be able to let the elixir reach His Majesty's hands. ”
Li Si said with a hesitant look on his face: "Meng Yi is both wise and brave, I am afraid that I will definitely be able to retrieve the elixir if I go here." ”
Zhao Gao sneered: "Then let him die." ”
gasped, looked at Zhao Gao and said in a trembling voice: "Could it be that Lord Zhao wants to mobilize military horses to besiege and kill Meng Yi?" ”
In Li Si's mind, there seemed to be no other way to deal with Meng Yi who led the army and horses besides this method.
However, if you want to mobilize military horses, you must have a tiger talisman, and if you don't have a tiger talisman, you can mobilize military horses under fifty people at most, but what role can dozens of people play.
An object appeared in Zhao's hand, and Li Si almost exclaimed in surprise when he saw this, and looked around, and then said nervously: "This ...... This is Your Majesty's Tiger Talisman, how can it be in your hands, Lord Zhao. ”
Zhao Gao sneered: "As the commander of the CRRC government, Your Majesty's things will naturally be in my hands, and now Your Majesty is seriously injured, it is reasonable for me to keep this tiger talisman for Your Majesty." ”
That being said, a tiger talisman and a jade seal are the personal belongings of the Son of Heaven, and they will never be kept by outsiders.
You must know that with the Tiger Talisman, you can mobilize military horses, especially the Great Qin Army, which is strictly disciplined, and now that Zhao Gao has the Tiger Talisman in hand, the thousands of Qin troops in the Dune Palace can definitely be mobilized by Zhao Gao.
Even Zhao Gao didn't have to discuss with him, Li Si looked at Zhao Gao's expression changeable, if he didn't stop Zhao Gao, then it would mean that he would be in the same league with Zhao Gao, and he would have to stand on Zhao Gao's side at that time.
Zhao Gao saw Li Si's reaction in his eyes, and sneered in his heart, he saw through Li Si, this person loves power, and now has the opportunity to become the prime minister in power, Li Si will inevitably be tempted.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Li Si to look at Zhao Gao, nodded emphatically and said, "I hope Lord Zhao's plan goes well." ”
Zhao Gao's heart fell, Li Sinai is the head of the Chinese officials of the dynasty, and if Li Si is leveled, most of the civilian officials will be leveled, as for the military generals, Zhao Gao has enough confidence to win over a group of military generals for his own use, after all, the Montessori brothers are powerful among the military generals, and they are not used to seeing their brothers.
Holding the tiger talisman, Zhao Gao mobilized thousands of people and horses, and recruited a general to secretly give orders, that general was not weak, and it was the general in the army who was attracted by Zhao Gao.
Soon thousands of people rushed out of the barracks, and after Zhao Gao arranged these, he looked at Li Si with a worried face and said lightly: "Prime Minister don't worry, Meng Yi will definitely not return alive, and Your Majesty will never be able to get the elixir, when Your Majesty collapses, you and I will be in charge of this world." ”
As if moved by the wonderful prospect depicted by Zhao Gao, Li Si said to Zhao Gao: "I hope everything is as Lord Zhao said." ”
Fang Xiaoyu in the dark saw all this in his eyes, his brows couldn't help frowning, he never believed that the First Emperor would suddenly become seriously ill, but now there are all kinds of signs that the First Emperor is really dying, if it weren't for this, Zhao Gao and Li Si, the two ministers who were the most trusted ministers of the First Emperor, would not dare to have two hearts.
