"Since the Marquis wants to know, Pu naturally dare not hide it, but it is all said by his nephew Chu Tian. As for the right and wrong of Pu, Pu, this spring, on March 12, after the Shangsi Festival, many people from Zhao spontaneously went to Yanmen Pass for a walk, and at the same time swept the tombs of the Zhao soldiers who died in the fight against the Huns. There is a temple in Yanmen Pass called Jingbian Temple, which worships the former general of Zhao Li Mu..."

Jiang Heng told the news that Jiang Chutian brought back without any concealment, and the content was roughly not much different from what Chen Xu and Chen Ping and others speculated.

Because the sacrifices of Li Mu in Jingbian Temple were Li Mu, for the Qin soldiers, Li Mu was the biggest enemy when he attacked Zhao. The Qin army was blocked by Li Mu in Jingxing for more than a year, and there were many casualties and food and supplies. If it were not for the strict military discipline and the emperor's unremitting support, Wang Jian would have almost never been able to stand the victory. Now that Qin has conquered Zhao, this is naturally an unparalleled victory in the eyes of the Qin people, and it is worthy of publicity and pride. However, under the attack of the Qin people, the Zhao people destroyed the country and the family were destroyed, which was a great shame and a great hatred. In the eyes of those patriots or Zhao men who lost their elders and brothers, all Qin people are enemies, and the soldiers guarding the border are naturally no exception.

The people of Zhaodi worshipped Li Mu at Jingbian Temple and worshipped the fallen soldiers to the tombs and worshiped the Qin army.

Although Li Mu was a defeated general of the Qin Dynasty, the methods used by Wang Jianchu to defeat Li Mu were not very glorious. Now Wang Jian's grandson, Wucheng Hou Wang Li, was in charge of the Northern Army to guard Yanzhao. The soldiers and generals under him were naturally dissatisfied with the Zhao people's extremely pious sacrifice. Li Mu was naturally dissatisfied and even ashamed of the incense of Li Mu in Yanmen Pass. Therefore, when he saw that the incense in Li Mu's temple was so prosperous at Yanmen Pass, Wang Li felt humiliated. In anger, he ordered a group of soldiers to rush into Jingbian Temple and pushed the statue to destroy the temple. This triggered fierce resistance from the civilians and a conflict broke out, causing dozens of casualties in local people. However, after the incident, the guards of Yanmen Pass and the generals stationed not only did not punish the Qin soldiers who destroyed the temple at all, but also deliberately protected and arrested hundreds of people who were most motivated by the resistance.

This incident had an extremely bad impact in the local area. A large number of people flocked to Yanmen Pass and Guangwu County Government to punish the murderers, but local officials shirked the blame and delayed each other. This matter was delayed until June and July. There were more and more conflicts between local people and the soldiers guarding the border, and even several incidents of sneak attacks on the military camp and patrol soldiers. Moreover, the local horse-raising horsemen were summoned to retaliate in the stables, resulting in dozens of war horses being poisoned to death. Wang Li ordered a large-scale search for suspicious people and killed dozens of people for treason. The conflict between the military and civilians became increasingly serious, and the matter became more and more intense. In a few months, dozens of people died and hundreds of people were injured. Perhaps Wang Li knew that the matter could not be suppressed, so he asked the magistrate of Guangwu County to write a memorial to report to Xianyang, which was lightly described that someone was injured due to the military-civilian conflict. The soldiers who caused trouble had been arrested and requested the Ministry of Justice to deal with it.

These news were brought back by Jiang Chutian. Chen Xu then confirmed it after listening to it. Then the whole story of this matter is basically clear.

The process was roughly the same, but the result was far beyond Chen Xu's expectations. Dozens of people died and hundreds were injured one after another, and the situation had intensified to the extent that local people attacked soldiers and poisoned war horses.

In other words, this matter has definitely lost control in Yanmen County.

It reached the point where Wang Li could no longer suppress it, so the situation was far more serious than Chen Xu speculated.

If the Northern Army was still in charge of Meng Tian, ​​this would never have happened.

In the last battle to conquer the six countries, destroy Qi, Meng Tian made great contributions as another main force to cooperate with Wang Ben. After victory, Qin Shihuang first appointed him as the inner historian and the title of Shangqing. After ascending the throne and becoming emperor, he appointed Meng Tian as the commander of the Northwest Army, leading 300,000 troops to guard the border of Yanzhao in the northwest. At the same time, he sent millions of surrendered soldiers from the six countries to build a Great Wall connecting Yanzhao and Qin, built a sprint and a straight road, and trained troops to prepare to recover Henan.

When the six countries initially decided that the domestic situation was extremely complicated, Meng Tian had been very stable in the northwest border counties for several years. At most, the surrendered soldiers of the six countries caused trouble, but they were usually suppressed quickly. The civilians in the border counties did not hear of rebellion and caused trouble, and there was no conflict with the army.

If Meng Tian had this kind of thing, basically there wouldn't be any damage to Jingbian Temple. As a veteran who participated in conquering the six kingdoms and made countless contributions, this kind of thing would be directly strangled in the cradle. Otherwise, Meng Tian would have been safe and sound for more than ten years in history. The people in Yanzhao were not good at fighting against the Xiongnu Donghu who plagued the border almost all year round. In addition, in this already extremely barbaric era, no one would be lenient when killing people, and naturally they would not be too courageous to cause trouble.

Wang Li is still too young and too vigorous, and his family status makes him feel a little proud and unscrupulous.

Chen Xu sat on a chair holding a teacup and started to examine the matter again.

If things had developed so violently, it would be impossible to know according to the court and the emperor's surveillance network.

Meng Yi is responsible for monitoring all civil and military officials in the world. The censors are spread all over the Qin counties and counties. There are several censor inspections every year. Even if Wang Li and Yanmen County officials collude with each other, news will definitely reach Meng Yi's ears.

Meng Yi must have known this earlier than he did, and he kept pretending not to know it. Then Feng Quji might have known it a long time ago, because these people have deep family relations and are intricate in the court, so it is not surprising that someone informs him.

Since Meng Yi and Feng Quji knew, the emperor must also know that because there are military supervisors and guard commanders, and even hidden spies such as Xuanwu Guards. No emperor can absolutely rest assured to put such an army in the hands of a general. The necessary monitoring methods must be provided. Even if the military supervisors and guard commanders can be controlled by Wang Li, the Xuanwu Guards will definitely convey the news back.

In other words, the four largest bosses in charge of Daqin are only known in the end by themselves being kept in the dark, and they all know each other but pretend not to know it.

Scammers~ Damn it is all a group of big liars!

The more Chen Xu thought about it, the more bitter he felt. At the end of the thought, tears were almost shedding.

Woo, it’s so shameless, I’m bullying me without a foundation.

"Mr. Marquis, do you have a word that Pu doesn't know whether to say it or not?" Looking at Chen Xu's extremely depressed expression, Jiang Pu spoke uneasyly.

"Mr. Jiang said it's okay!" Chen Xu nodded in a messy mood.

"Mr. Marquis, the matter of Yanmen Pass involves Marquis Wucheng. Now the general has just passed away, and Marquis Tongwu has just returned from the Lingnan Dasheng. Although this happened in spring, more than half a year has passed. Many well-informed people in the court must have known it. Pu guessed that Your Majesty also knew it. The reason why he was exposed now is that someone is testing the Marquis!" Jiang Pu said carefully.

"Test me?" Chen Xu was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, when the Marquis suggested that the emperor sack the 300,000 troops in the northwest, many people in the court were dissatisfied, but they were suppressed by His Majesty. Although the matter at Yanmen Pass was quite big, it was only a few counties in Zhao. Even if someone gathered a group to rebel like Xiang, it would not be a risk of injury to the Qin Dynasty. At most, it would be a little confused. However, when this matter was exposed at this critical moment, someone must have deliberately done it, just to test the Marquis' attitude towards the matter. After all, Feng Xiang and Doctor Meng, who knew the news, did not do anything. Then the only person in the world who may have different opinions on this matter is Marquis. Your

I can think that no one can understand the civil and military officials in the court. If the emperor says something ruthless, that is, the emperor is three-point afraid of you. If the marquis intends to investigate the matter thoroughly, Your Majesty will be in a dilemma and support the investigation of the matter thoroughly, then a large group of soldiers and officials involved in the matter will be dismissed or even severely held. The Marquis of Wucheng will inevitably be involved, and may be dismissed from office or title. Once you reach this situation, a huge crack will appear between you and Wang. You are the left prime minister of the court, and the Marquis of Tongwu is the pillar of the army. If you two turn against each other, the entire Qin Dynasty will be in turmoil. If you do not support the investigation, it may cause a gap between you and Your Majesty..."

Jiang Pu said sincerely. If he was not a person who trusted him, he would not say this at all. After all, there were too many people involved. The three nobles, emperors, Wang father and son, were not anyone who could compete with him, Jiang, and the only one who could resist this force was the only young man in front of him.

But it is okay to watch this kind of thing, but it is not wise to participate in it. After all, this vortex is too big, and once it is caught in it, the corpse will be gone.

After receiving Jiang Pu's advice, Chen Xu's mind suddenly became clear.

An extremely huge network suddenly appeared in front of me, involving all civil and military officials, including the emperor.

Almost everyone maintains a mind that it is not about his own affairs, and the emperor may also think that Wang Li is too much of a problem because of this matter.

And as Jiang Pu said, the timing of this memorial was very subtle, which happened to be at the last juncture of Tongwu Hou conquering Lingnan. The dawn of victory was approaching. Chen Xu also remembered that Wang Jian was seriously ill at that time, and a servant went to the palace to ask Wang Ben to be transferred back, but the emperor did not agree.

In other words, someone secretly instructed to use this memorial to test Chen Xu's attitude, and at the same time, the emperor's attitude. If Chen Xu had submitted the memorial to the emperor in the court, then the matter would have changed from secret to light. No matter how the emperor dealt with the investigation, it would make people feel that Chen Xu was deliberately targeting the Wang family. Wang Ben was fighting in Lingnan, and Wang Li was guarding the north. In addition, Wang Jian's life was in danger at that time. There were only two possibilities after he made it clear. One was that the emperor asked for a thorough investigation, and the other was to solve it perfunctorily. According to the situation at that time, the possibility of the emperor's last perfunctory solution was 90%. After all, it was only hundreds of civilians in Zhao areas who were killed or injured, which was completely incomparable to the mainstay of the Qin Dynasty, such as the Wang family. Once it was resolved perfunctorily, Wang Li would be completely free from this matter and would never be punished again.
