Fushi County.

The changing images in front of his eyes gradually faded, and a young man with handsome features and holding a sword wiped his tears and looked at the unusual environment around him in surprise.

Did I die in a car accident? What is this place? Is it a filming location? He was a little confused.

Just at this moment, there was a noisy sound outside the house.

"General, please don't trespass!"

"Get out of the way! Can't you see I'm busy?"

After a burst of pushing and shoving, the sound of heavy footsteps came closer and closer, followed by a bold male voice.

"Sir, why are you doing this!"

The young man only felt his arm tighten, and the sword in his hand was taken away by the other party.

"General Meng Tian!" He called out the other person's name, paused for a moment, and the expression on his face became tough again to endure the pain.

"My Lord, ah..." Meng Tian sighed, frowning, "Your Majesty is away... Hundreds of thousands of troops are defending the border... My Lord, you are responsible for supervising the army..."

Meng Tian, ​​Your Majesty, Young Master? Didn't I just travel through time? The young man opened his mouth wide, his breath trembling rapidly.

Calm, calm, calm... After taking several deep breaths, he tried hard to suppress the chaos in his heart.

Meng Tian's long and endless narration interrupted the jump of memory, and scenes quickly appeared in his mind!

—— Fusu, a native of Guanzhong, was the eldest among the brothers. He had many brothers and sisters with the same father but different mothers. His father was the ruler of a country, the greatest emperor in history - Qin Shi Huangdi, Ying Zheng.

However, the current time is frozen in the 37th year of Emperor Qin Shihuang.

I just received the order document from the messenger, which contained two brief but clear things.

First, he ordered the death of Fusu, who is the self in front of him.

Second, he ordered the death of Meng Tian, ​​the bearded owner who was narrating non-stop.

According to the historical trajectory, he should have been in a secret room at this time, preparing to end his life; as for Meng Tian, ​​he was imprisoned in Yang Zhou after his persuasion failed, and finally committed suicide by poisoning because he could not bear the despair.

"Report this news to the emperor immediately. Something must have gone wrong!" After Meng Tian completed the operation of seizing the sword, he threw the sword out of the door. His image, which usually gave people a sense of oppression, now revealed a hint of anxiety.

Obviously, from his reaction, he undoubtedly knew the true meaning of the letter. It meant that the shackles of fate bound the two closely together, as Fusu said:

"If the king wants his subjects to die, the father wants his son to die." Since you have reviewed the order and verified the authenticity of the certificate and have the token (i.e. the seal) to report the matter to the emperor, is there any need to make further statements?

Moreover, as far as he could remember, there was indeed a provision in Qin law that allowed fathers to apply for official punishment of their children for unfilial behavior.

The decree to execute Fusu did indeed contain the following stipulations: Fusu, as a prince, was not filial, so he was given a sharp sword and ordered to kill himself! Meng Tian, ​​as a general, was far away from Fusu and failed to correct him, so he should have known his conspiracy. As a court official, he failed to perform his duties, so he was sentenced to death!

If we say to flee now? Is this really what a human being would say? Where did this idea come from? ... Meng Tian was confused after hearing Fusu's words.

Outside the door, the messenger said coldly, threatening his guard with a spear: "The laws of the Qin Dynasty are clear and distinct. I advise you to act with caution! I am delivering the imperial decree!"

After hearing the emperor's words, the soldiers who followed Meng Tian became frightened.

Seeing this, the man sneered, pushed away the sharp blade stuck in his throat, and turned to the room, "Sir, please listen to me and carry out the order, so as not to cause trouble for us!"

Meng Tian closed the door to block the messenger's sight. "Are you giving up just like that? Sir, are you really going to commit suicide because of this order whose authenticity is unknown?"

"How can it be so serious?" Fusu responded in his heart. Maybe in history, Fusu did commit suicide. But here, I am a new body, and I really don't want to die again. Recalling the scene five minutes ago when I just arrived, a large truck roared in, and looked at the surprised expression on Meng Tian's face.

"I don't want to die." "Then why did you draw the sword?" Meng Tian asked.

"That's a good question!" Fusu forced a bitter smile: "When the Qin sword is unsheathed, someone must bleed!"

Since you don't want to sacrifice your life to nourish the sword, then you ask me why I drew the sword? As soon as he finished speaking, he stared at Meng Tian in front of him, his eyes sharp, like a blade shooting at prey.

The young master's behavior is strange, but the true nature of human beings can be seen in an emergency... Meng Tian looked at Fusu, whose face was very similar to that of the First Emperor, and said, "Please take your opinion as the standard! What should we do now?" he continued.

"Although the form is correct and the seal is correct, it does not mean that the text is necessarily true," Fusu said slowly:

"This is a forged imperial edict. It is a conspiracy by Li Si and others to use the emperor's power to disrupt the world! What we need to do now is to send troops to rescue our emperor from the usurper!"

Qin Shi Huang died suddenly in Shaqiu, but Zhao Gao and others kept the news secret, and still let the caravan pretend to travel all over the country, and passed through Jingxing County and entered Yunzhong (now Hohhot), and stopped in Jiuyuan (now Baotou) to rest. After Fusu took it himself and lost the troops under Meng Tian, ​​their cavalry rushed to Xianyang to announce the funeral.

That "Jiuyuan City" is at least a thousand miles away from here. No wonder they dared to hold Your Majesty hostage! Hmm? I actually believed what the young master said? Zhao Gao and others actually used Your Majesty to control the people... Meng Tian laughed at himself secretly, but then he thought of:

How could the young master know the exact location of His Majesty's convoy? Was there someone secretly planted by him in the accompanying team? This shows that the young master has already taken this step invisibly? However, dispatching troops without orders is no different!

Meng Tian found it difficult to make a clear decision for a while.

Escape or death, starting a great cause is also escape and death, or is it acceptable to die in the cause of the country? ...Not appropriate! Fusu observed Meng Tian's confused expression and thought about what to do next.

He remembered a scene he had seen before in which Wang Jian complained: "As a general of the king, although he had made meritorious services, he was never awarded an official title or honor."

Suddenly inspiration came to him, and he said solemnly:

"If you can lead the troops to rescue His Majesty, you will have the opportunity to be made a marquis and become a prime minister in the future!"

Meng Tian shook his head and said:

"Sir, your good intentions are as tempting as flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, but in fact there are still certain difficulties. We cannot skip a link. If we want to mobilize Jiuyuan's troops, we must face another key person!"

"who is it?"

"Marquis Tongwu's son, the current Marquis Wucheng Wang Li!"

"Wang Li, Marquis of Wucheng?"

Oh, he is the descendant of Wang Jian, the one who was defeated by Liu Bang in Chengwu and then defeated by Xiang Yu in the Battle of Julu... Really amazing! I don't know if it is a compliment or a sarcasm? But according to what Meng Tian said, is he a secret envoy sent by Qin Shi Huang? This is indeed very likely, because according to legend, during the emperor's reign, the first half of the emperor's life was spent in the political game...

Fusu recalled the various stories that happened in the historical events of later generations.

For monarchs who were destined to die, those who came to convey the orders often had the mission of helping those who were about to die to leave in a dignified manner.

If they did not accept the king's will and rebelled, someone else would help them carry out this ritual separation and ensure its dignity. According to speculation, Wang Li should be the person responsible for helping to end the life of Fusu and Meng Tian in a dignified manner, right?

After all, in the ancient text "Records of the Grand Historian", there is a plot that "After Fusu died, the general Wang Li took command of the troops. Meng Tian was suspicious of this arrangement and finally requested his position again", but Wang Li eventually became the takeover and replaced the original role.

However, the key premise of all this is that the events recorded in past historical books assumed that Fusu and others at the time were unaware of the news of Qin Shihuang's death and could only obediently accept the beheading.

But the current situation is different. As a time traveler, Fusu realizes that the First Emperor has already returned to the underworld and there is no possibility of him returning to the human world.

When the Jiuyuan Legion set off, even the day when Qin Shihuang's coffin was reopened would be nothing but an unnecessary worry.

Are they naturally noble? Only those with brave soldiers and strong horses are truly noble!

Humph, as the inherited rule of the Imperial Guard, the Roman succession right is in Qin, so what?

As Fuzhu Su was about to smile, he wondered: Apart from my God-like vision and the knowledge that the emperor had passed away, what was the difference between me and other heroes? Especially Meng Tian, ​​who had left a profound mark on history?

With his brows slightly furrowed, he thought:

"Why did Meng Tian try to persuade the emperor not to rebel today? He really didn't know what the consequences of disobeying the emperor's will would be? When I told him the location of the emperor's carriage, he immediately began to plan the movement of the army. I can't imagine how simple-minded he is!"

If it were only Wang Li, with his status advantage, suppression would be feasible; the difficulty lies in the fact that the veteran commanders such as Su Jiao and Shejian... these people who have followed Meng Tian for a long time, the degree to which they obey orders is questionable.

After thinking, he fixed his eyes on Meng Tian who had been paying attention to him: "Leave it to Wang Li, as for the others...don't worry!"

"Don't worry, sir," Meng Tian bowed and left.

After seeing this scene, he walked out of the inner room and shouted sternly: "Iron Eagle Scouts are here!"

The answers came flooding in.

"Son!"

A group of warriors wearing armor and with strong muscles came into view.

Directive to take immediate effect—

"The rope is ready!"

The soldiers responded in unison and took immediate action, blocking the Korean envoy's moment of reaction, tightly wrapping his hands and feet with ropes, and then evacuated the scene.

Standing under the eaves, gazing at the sun rising in the distance amid the smoke and dust, I felt a lot of emotion. This is the moment that determines everything...

He found two minor officials with whom he had worked for many years and asked them to polish the text of an announcement regarding the removal of the emperor's entourage, on the premise of briefly stating his intentions.

After the text was completed and confirmed to be correct, he summoned the Iron Eagle Scouts to imprison the frightened and sweating clerk in it.

Fu Zhi organized the written silk pieces into the case, and asked the two Iron Eagle pioneers who had followed him for a long time, Chun Tian and his comrade Gan Fu, pretending to be puzzled - what are the ranks of the two now?
