This first emperor is awesome

The Wang family fell down. For Mengshi, fortune and disaster are unpredictable!

Since the dictatorship of Xiangbang Lu Buwei, His Majesty hated the powerful ministers.

Since then, no one has been able to cover the sky with one hand, and has power over the world.

After unifying the world, His Majesty has tightened up his authority and strictly restricted the rights of his subjects. Without an imperial decree, no one has the right to mobilize a single soldier of the Great Qin Dynasty.

It can be seen from this that His Majesty is suspicious of his ministers.

If there is no restraint from the Wang family, can His Majesty feel at ease with the prestigious Mengshi?

Meng Yi sighed in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy about the future fate of the Wang family.

I hope that my guesses are all wrong, and everything remains the same, which is the best.

The Meng family and the Wang family have competed with each other for generations, not only for the glory of the family!

It is also to reassure His Majesty that if all the subjects are of the same mind, then no matter which king, I am afraid that he will not be able to sleep day and night!

Not to mention, Your Majesty who is so talented!

After half a month...

In the Pingxi camp, Wang Ben looked surprised at the servant who came to proclaim the imperial edict.

But the emperor's order cannot be violated, not to mention that the eldest princess is the father's wife and the nominal mistress of the Wang family.

I have no reason not to return to Xianyang.

It's just that this edict is full of weirdness everywhere, but I can't find any refutation at all.

Failure to follow the call is treason.

I'm afraid that the general below will take him under the imperial edict.

Is there any choice?

Wang Ben felt a little bit bitter in his heart, he bowed his hands and said: "My subject, Wang Ben, I would like to follow His Majesty's sacred instructions."

After the general's power and military amulets were all handed over to the deputy general Fan Kuai, Wang Ben rode his horse back to Xianyang overnight with only a team of his own personal guards.

Almost one after the other, the Bohai Navy camp also staged this scene.

Admiral Wang Li of the navy almost thought he had heard wrong when he received the appointment to be transferred to the Northern Army.

But how can the decree be forged?

Handing over all the military power to Li You, he could only obey the order and rush to the northern camp to serve.

In this way, all the nobles of the Wang family were dismissed one by one quietly, and obediently returned to Xianyang to report on their duties.

Xianyang Protector's Mansion, Wang Ben and many nobles of the Wang family looked at His Majesty's personal guards, Iron Eagle Guards, who surrounded the Protector's Mansion tightly.

All of them turned pale, especially Wang Ben burst into tears when he heard that his son Wang He was dead.

As night fell, the Duke Huguo's mansion was all dressed in hemp and filial piety, and the lights were brightly lit.

In the main hall, all the relatives and nobles of the Wang family gathered together.

"Nephew, Your Majesty is going to trick you back to Xianyang, in the name of protection, but in fact you are under house arrest!"

"Yes! Brother, what happened here?"

"The patriarch's bones are not yet cold, so His Majesty's actions will chill the hearts of all the people in the world!"

"We must not sit still and wait for death. We should enter the palace together, ask to see His Majesty, and ask the truth!"

The relatives and nobles of the Wang family couldn't bear it any longer, and said to Wang Ben who was sitting on the main seat, what you said, I said.

Looking at the relatives, Wang Ben felt extremely irritable, and couldn't help shouting: "Everyone, please listen to Ben's words."

"The eldest princess is in the palace, and my son died tragically in the mansion. The truth is still unknown."

"His Majesty gathered us and the nobles of the Wang family in Xianyang today, the meaning is self-evident."

"If I wait for this matter to cause trouble, it is tantamount to giving someone a handle."

"Now we have neither military power nor real power in our hands. We are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. We must not act recklessly."

"Your Majesty is self-willed. If we are stubborn, we will be smashed."

"The current plan is to wait for the emperor's order and wait for the trial!"

Wang Ben sighed in his heart, and was caught off guard by His Majesty.

Mrs. Wang didn't even have the slightest strength to resist. Now she can only sit and wait for death, hoping that things are not as bad as she imagined.

I know better than anyone else the virtues of my youngest son, Wang He.

This little son has been extremely stubborn since he was a child, but because his father loves him, he lacks discipline.

Far inferior to his eldest son, Wang Li, he is simply a playboy who is ignorant, eats, drinks, and is proficient in everything.

But no matter what, he is also my son, Wang Ben, a descendant of the Wang family.

Who killed him?

Could it be the eldest princess?

Otherwise, why did the eldest princess keep hiding in the palace?

But why does the princess want to...

Is it...

Is this bastard really crazy?

Wang Ben almost didn't bring it up in one breath, and was stunned by his own speculation.

If it is really what I guessed, even if the Wang family has made great contributions, they will die for it.

Once the incident happened, the achievements of the Wang family in the past would be ruined overnight.

Even the outstanding meritorious service paid in advance will be tarnished.

The entire Wang family will be notorious, and the world will laugh at it.

Impossible, this Nizi absolutely does not have the guts, nor would he do such a stupid thing.

"The decree has arrived."

Suddenly there was a loud voice outside, and everyone in the hall showed a trace of panic on their faces, and they quickly recovered, knelt down in great anxiety, and greeted the unknown fate.

"The first emperor of the Qin Dynasty issued an edict that King Ben, the protector of the country, can enter the palace to face the saint, there must be no mistakes."

After Zhong Shan finished reading, he looked at the dazed Wang Ben and said, "Duke, are you still not accepting the order?"

"Minister, Wang Ben leads the order."

Wang Ben came back to his senses immediately. After returning to Xianyang, he heard about the name of the new eunuch, Zhong Shan.

"Eunuch Ling, I don't know what crime Wang committed?"

"I also ask the eunuch Ling to give me some pointers, and I will be grateful to Ben."

After receiving the imperial edict, Wang Ben stood up and said to Zhong Shan.

"What sin?"

"That will only be known after the Duke enters the palace to face the saint."

"The next official is just a small eunuch's order, how can I know the meaning of the Holy One?"

Zhong Shan smiled politely, dropped a word lightly, bowed his hands, and left.

Wang Ben took a deep breath, whether it was a blessing or a curse, if it was a disaster, he couldn't avoid it, so it seemed that he could only enter the palace to find out.

Chapter 195 This is contempt for the royal family, this is a betrayal of the empire

"Chen, Wang Ben, see Your Majesty."

In Xianyang Palace and Pingtian Palace, Wang Ben applauded Yingzheng, who was reviewing the memorial, apprehensively.

Ying Zheng still watched the memorial, as if he didn't hear it at all.

After a while, Wang Ben became even more uneasy, and bowed again: "Sinner, Wang Ben, see Your Majesty."

"I can't bear it."

Ying Zheng seemed to have heard it this time, put down the memorial in his hand, and said sharply.

"Your Majesty, all criminals will die."

Wang Ben was taken aback. It seems that this trip to the palace was indeed a disaster rather than a blessing!

"You really gave birth to a good son!"

"Your father is the number one hero of the Great Qin Dynasty, serving four generations of Great Qin Kings."

"The Wang family of Fuping is distinguished in the world and respected by the world."

"My sons and daughters, let's not talk about the princess status."

"What is your identity in your Wang family?"

Ying Zheng was not angry, but his voice was like rolling thunder.

"Your Majesty, the Wang Manchus are loyal to His Majesty, full of enthusiasm for the empire, and even more respectful of His Majesty the Princess!"

"His Royal Highness is the mistress of the Wang family. All the descendants of the Wang family will pay homage to the majesty of the mistress."

When Wang Ben heard it, it really was Her Royal Highness, but at this moment, how could he dare to say a word of nonsense.

"Very well, your father's wife and your mother."

"Your mother is also your son's grandmother."

"Looking at the ancient and modern times, you can look at the history. How can there be any descendants who have evil intentions against their grandmother?"

Ying Zheng's eyes made no secret of his anger and murderous intent.

Wang Ben almost didn't bring it up in one breath, but he guessed it right!

Nizi is confused!

Damn thing, how dare he?

Wang Ben only felt the world spinning for a while, and at this time he could not care about the relationship between father and son, so he quickly bowed his head and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the sinners will die, and the Wang family will die!"

"Yes, you are indeed dead, and your Wang family is indeed worthy of death!"

"I entrusted my beloved daughter to the Wang family, the jewel in my palm, and suffered such a great humiliation."

"This is contempt for the royal family, this is a betrayal of the empire."

"If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation, I will never tolerate it."

"The reason why I didn't announce it to the world is because I thought about the great achievements of the old general and cared about Wang's face."

"I hope you will take care of yourself!"

Ying Zheng's tone was cold, giving people a sense of oppression that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is overwhelming.

Beads of sweat covered Wang Ben's forehead, big beads of sweat slipped down his restless face one by one.

My son is dead, what else does His Majesty want to explain?

But he could only think about it in his heart, and didn't dare to say it.

"Your Majesty, I would like to make atonement for the treacherous son, please give the sinful minister a death."

"I just ask Your Majesty to remember that the Wang family is loyal and has made great contributions to the empire."

"Gentle punishment to Wang's Manchus, to comfort the heroic spirits of Wang's who sacrificed their lives for the country."

Wang Ben burst into tears, and confessed his guilt very sincerely to Ying Zheng.

"Cutting off the duke of the country and demoting him to Marquis Che."

"Go back, face the wall and think about your mistakes, and don't take half a step out of the mansion until you get the imperial edict."

Ying Zheng thought of Wang Jian's achievements, and didn't want to do too much to the Wang family.

"The guilty minister thanks His Majesty for his grace, and the guilty minister retires."

Wang Ben bowed his hands and shouted.
