Qin Shihuang's eyes widened, and then he nodded his head: "Okay! Pass the decree. From now on, all officials must be three feet away from me when they go to court. Do you think three feet is far enough?"

Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Qin Shihuang to ask him this question, but then he reflected: "Your Majesty, for a subject, three feet is more than enough, but for masters like Guojiu and General Meng Yi, even if it is Ten feet may not be enough!"

"That's why I feel that it's best not to show up in the court for people with high martial arts skills like Uncle Guo or General Meng Yi!"

This suggestion won the favor of Qin Shihuang. In fact, he wanted to fight the same way, but he had a problem: "It is not unreasonable for you to say it, but the generals who are ranked in the Shangqing are now only uncle Guo, Meng Yi and Wang Li. There are three of them, and no matter who is in Xianyang, the three of them are the heads of all the officials in Xianyang, and they are not allowed to go to court, how is this possible?"

Zhao Gao narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't expect that Qin Shihuang's reaction was really all right by Li Linfei. This is really a cold-blooded and ruthless emperor. It seems that Hu Hai is better. Although he is a little muddy and cannot support the wall, the whole Tian only knows about eating, drinking, and having fun, but he values ​​love and righteousness. At least he trusts and relies on himself enough, which is many times better than Qin Shihuang and Fusu.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't blame me for this!

Thinking of this, Zhao Gao told the destination that Li Linfei had prepared for him: "Your Majesty, before the army fought with the Huns, because they avoided fighting on two fronts, Queen Tu'an's assassination of His Majesty has always been kept secret. people know."

"This time the uncle of the country is back, why not let the uncle of the country order an imperial decree to lead a team of elite soldiers to destroy Tu'an."

"Firstly, it can keep Uncle Guo away from the court, and secondly, the border between Tu'an and Daqin is the part of the border where Uncle Guo has no hands. It is very reasonable for Uncle Guo to send troops."

"What's more, the uncle of the country and the concubine Li's brother and sister are commensurate, but it's hard to say whether he has any connection with Tu'an. This time the army can also test the uncle of the country, and even use his identity as the uncle of the country."

"After the pattern was wiped out, the imperial concubine Li was taken back from the cold palace, and the ministers who knew about it had nothing to say.

"Okay, just do as Aiqing tells you!"

Chapter 724 Fenghou

"Your Majesty, the uncle of the country has already wiped out Tu'an, and he will return to the court in a few days. However, there is no uncle in the country during this period, and there is no trouble on the border. I am worried that the uncle or other people with ulterior motives will come back to the court soon." Use this excuse to keep Uncle Guo in the court."

"Especially those military generals, without uncle Guo and his several generals in the court, they are overwhelmed by the civil officials in everything, and they will definitely find a way to keep a general as the head of the generals, sitting in the court to compete with the civil officials, Fight for the interests of generals."

Zhao Gao began to slander while giving Qin Shihuang a foot massage, and Qin Shihuang was also worrying about this matter.

Just half a year ago, he was still worried about Li Linfei's ability to take on important tasks, whether he could have the ability to truly lead the army, and whether he could compete against the two kings of Mongolia.

Unexpectedly, in less than half a year, Li Linfei had already wiped out the Three Kingdoms in a row, his achievements were not far behind that of the Mongolian Kings, and his ability was even stronger than that of the current headed family.

But because of the assassination at the birthday banquet before, and Zhao Gao's slander according to Li Linfei's orders, Qin Shihuang complained a little about why Li Linfei is so capable, why can't he be mediocre and useless!

"Then what do you say? I can't force Uncle Guo out of Xianyang?"

Qin Shihuang was very helpless, if he dared to do this, I am afraid that Li Linfei would lead the army to rush into Xianyang, drive him off the dragon chair, or even drive him out of the world and send him to the underworld!

Zhao Gao hurriedly bowed his waist: "Your Majesty, I have been thinking about this matter these days. I just remembered yesterday that Your Majesty ordered people to build the imperial tombs. Didn't they build a total of three imperial tombs, one real, two fake?"

"At this time, there is only one suspected tomb that is in charge of building, and there are still two people in charge of building the imperial tomb, and the governor who knows all the secrets and is in charge of the construction of the three imperial tombs."

"So I thought, it's better to send uncle Guo to be the governor. After all, uncle Guo's merits and loyalty are more than enough to do this, and this matter is also important enough to be used as a very reasonable excuse to let uncle Guo leave Xianyang. Uncle Guo can be dispatched to the battlefield at any time when needed."

Qin Shihuang's eyes lit up, yes, this really kills two birds with one stone, it can keep Li Linfei away from the court, and has a suitable excuse, and it can also solve another trouble he has been having all along.

"Moreover, Your Majesty, in addition to this, you can also use the same excuse to transfer General Meng Yi out to take over the construction of an imperial tomb, and find someone to take over the Meng family army. Prestige in the family army."

Not bad!

Qin Shihuang subconsciously nodded his head. After the previous transfer of troops to Li Linfei, he first conquered Rong and Di, then formed a new frontier army, and finally Meng Tian died and was replaced again. With so many accidents, even the Meng family It is not a problem to hand over the army to others, and there is absolutely no need to worry about any resistance from the Meng family army!

"This method is good, but who will take over Meng Jiajun?"

Daqin is a military power that fights with soldiers and horses. There are not many other things, but there are many generals. It is not too easy to find someone who is capable of taking over the Meng family army. Even in other armies, like the Meng family, they are too big to lose.

Thinking of this, Qin Shihuang once again raised deep grudges and guard against the unrivaled prestige of the Mongolian kings and two families in the army.

"Your Majesty, I have a candidate!"

"tell me the story!"

Zhao Gao hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the person you are talking about is General Li Youli, the governor of Shangjun County. General Li's father is the Prime Minister Li Si Li, which is enough to prove that his family is clean and reliable."

"Father and son, one civil and one military, have no previous cumulative influence on the army. Don't worry about being as big as the two families of King Meng. Moreover, General Li You is a disciple of the late General Meng Tianmeng, and he has a good personal relationship with General Meng Yi. He will accept it." Meng's army, even if Meng's army is dissatisfied, it won't be too big, General Meng Yi will take the initiative to solve it for the sake of his relationship with General Li You."

Qin Shihuang's eyes are getting brighter and brighter. That's right, why didn't I think of this person? Thinking about it now, this person is really the best candidate to take over the Meng family army and disintegrate the prestige of the Meng family in this Meng family army. !

"Another point is that, according to the more than ten types of ministers that my uncle said before, a minister is a courtier, while the late General Meng Tian and this General Li You are the kind of absolutely loyal ministers who serve the country and the people. Jun, the purely selfless kind, this kind of man-made government is not suitable, but it is perfect for holding troops and stationing on the border!"

boom!

Qin Shihuang slapped the table fiercely: "Needless to say, just do as Aiqing said, transfer the construction of the royal tomb of the governor of the country, transfer Meng Yi Aiqing to be in charge of the construction of the real imperial tomb, and transfer Li You to take over the Meng family army. .”

In this way, on the second day after Li Linfei returned to Xianyang, he was sent by Qin Shihuang to Lishan to dig graves and build the imperial mausoleum, and Meng Yi was also sent there a few days later, and the military power was given to the two of them in disguise. deprived.

Of course, in order to make amends and appease Li Linfei, he did not explicitly remove the power of the guarding general. In name, he was still in command of the large army, but he was temporarily ordered to build the imperial tomb by the governor, while the 20 troops at the border were handed over to Li Linfei. Peng Yue, his lieutenant general, was appointed as the commander, but all three of Xiang's uncle and nephew were invited out of the army with excuses.

In order to prevent Li Linfei's resentment from causing mutiny, Qin Shihuang broke the rules of the Great Qin and implemented the enfeoffment system again. Li Linfei, Wang Li, Li Si, Meng Yi and other top civil servants and generals who made outstanding contributions were given to the Qin Dynasty. In addition to the knighthood system for military merit, the five-tier system of princes, uncles, males, which was abolished not long ago and prevailed in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties and the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, was additionally restored, and absolute independent and independent fiefdoms were granted according to the five-tier knighthoods.

For example, fill in the address in the ancestral home column of Li Linfei's household registration booklet, which is his hometown Changsha County that he said in Daqin now.

The groundbreaking feat led by the destruction of the Three Kingdoms was entrusted to Li Linfei, the uncle of the Great Qin, the Great General of the Protectorate, and the Marquis of Changsha, to establish Changsha, one of the only two Marquis states in the Great Qin, and to be fully autonomous.

However, in order to avoid the separatism of the princes again, if the area of ​​the fief is larger than a township, they can only stay in their fief three times a year at most.

No more than one month at a time, and family members are also prohibited from living in the fief for more than two years at a time. It can be said that the control over the fief is minimized. between.

Chapter 725 Zhao Gao's Persuasion

Of course, there is no doubt that this was all done by Li Linfei secretly inciting Zhao Gao to knock on the side. Since there are enough rewards, there will not be many complaints if a top general like him is deprived of power, and there will be no complaints. It is unacceptable to Qin Shihuang, and even more so that he can justifiably cede land and become king in the future. It is the best of both worlds!

More importantly, the next period of the plot will all take place here in the Imperial Mausoleum, especially the belonging of Tianxing and the appearance of Cui Wenzi, which Li Linfei absolutely cannot miss.

And another point is that in the real world, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang has never been found, only a few burial pits of terracotta warriors and horses have been found, and it is very likely that it is not the real imperial tomb, but a fake suspicious tomb.

Although these are two worlds, things like the Imperial Mausoleum are not exactly the same, but most of the things are very similar, such as site selection, feng shui, organ layout, scale, and the cover up after the final closure, etc. Wait, these things that have nothing to do with the plot, I'm afraid they will be very, very close!

"Niang Niang!" Not long after, because Li Linfei presented the terracotta warriors and horses, and Huangling urgently needed craftsmen to make terracotta warriors, Zhao Gao took the opportunity to take Yushu out of the cold palace and sent her to the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum. Chance got into Yushu's carriage.

"What are you here for?"

Because of Li Linfei's relationship, the relationship between Zhao Gao and Yushu has always been very good, and there is no enmity between the two, but after all, Yushu's mother was caught by Zhao Gao's design before being arrested, leading to suicide by taking poison , so it is impossible for Yushu not to hate Zhao Gao.

"Your Majesty... No, now that you are no longer your Empress, and you are not in the palace now, I will just call you Yushu, as an older brother!"

Zhao Gao sighed and said: "You also understand the relationship between Lin Fei and me. You are his sister, which is equivalent to my sister. I will not hurt you or me."

"I'm also sorry for the previous incident, but, after all, I am the eunuch in charge of your Majesty's diet and daily life. Someone poisoned His Majesty, Yushu, tell me, should I find a way?" How about finding someone?"

Yushu has no scheming from the beginning to the end, and like Yi Xiaochuan back then and Meng Yi now, she is the kind of virgin whore, so although she clearly hates her, she has an indirect mother-killing feud with Zhao Gao, But he didn't know how to refute at all, and he didn't even know why more than half of his hatred disappeared.

"It seems that you can understand the difficulty of being an elder brother, but you understand it. After all, I am sorry for you, so the only thing I can do for you is to speak to His Majesty and send you to Li. Go to the mountains to build the imperial mausoleum and do hard work!"

Yushu was puzzled, didn't she just say sorry to herself, did she mean to make up for herself?How could he turn himself into a corvee or even a slave in the blink of an eye?
