Chapter 487 Not even a thank you
Xia Ningmeng was running around anxiously, what should she do? Why hasn't her brother come back yet? How could she save Jian Jichen and Xiu Jie with only one person?
Outside until nightfall, Meng Tian and Master Fusu were still standing in place, holding the imperial edict in their hands, and both of them were relatively speechless.
Xia Yixuan's prophecy actually came true. If Mr. Fusu had been warned and foolishly committed suicide, it would not be any different if he were alive in the Qin Dynasty. He did not really want to commit suicide, but returned to the military tent to think of countermeasures.
It is your wife, children, and children who need to be taken into consideration, so you must take a long-term approach.
But no one expected that the envoy was killed! Although the urgent need was solved, it seemed that the charge of resisting the imperial decree was confirmed, and his title to the throne was not justified.
"Young Master, Mr. Xiu... what do you think?"
"Let him be in prison for the time being, and no one can get close to him." As a brave man, Meng Tian knew that Xiu Jie had done something that no one dared to do. How could he kill Xiu Jie and let him do it?
What about the scapegoat?
Regardless of his reputation throughout his life, he can't live with his conscience! Now he is locked up in a prison and no one is allowed to get close to him. He may suffer a little but his life is safe.
"Young Master, what should we do next? Young Master must ascend the throne, we..." Even if he doesn't die now, he can be executed at any time when he becomes the emperor!
Fusu was at a loss and shook his head and said, "I hope General Meng Yi and Yixuan can gain something."
After waiting anxiously for another day, Xia Yixuan and General Meng Yi finally came back. Both of them were scarred. Of the 3,000 soldiers and horses they brought out, only a dozen were left. It can be seen that they were chased and killed all the way back.
of.
And Xia Yixuan and Meng Yi brought back the real imperial edict of Emperor Qin, which was the imperial edict that was not sent out. They ordered Fusu to serve Mengtian as a soldier and be buried in Xianyang at the funeral."
Finally, the situation was turned around. After Xia Yixuan's imperial edict was delivered, he was too seriously injured and fainted.
Prince Fusu returned to Xianyang half a month later with Emperor Qin's imperial edict and Meng Tian's 30,000 troops. It was already three months later when the rebels and traitors were eradicated, the imperial court was rectified, and the situation settled down.
Xia Ningmeng sat on the stone bench in the yard, dragging her cheeks and couldn't help but ask herself, has history been changed in this way? Now that Mr. Fusu has ascended the throne as emperor, will the Qin Dynasty perish so early?
She will never understand the world of men. Xiujie stayed in the prison for more than a month. No one whipped or tortured him. However, in a dungeon where someone could freeze to death, after a month of torture, all his hands and feet became raw.
Frostbite, itching and unbearable, I kept saying "cold, cold, cold" even while the stove was burning!
Jian Jichen wasn't much better either. He had chilblains similar to Xiu Jie's, white and fair, and his long fingers were as swollen as an elephant's legs.
"This Fusu is so uninteresting. I helped him so much and didn't even say thank you?"
"Thank you?" If you didn't kill him, your fate would be better, okay? Killing the messenger, really...
Jian Jichen shook his head helplessly. The most important thing was done, what next? Xia Yixuan became Fusu's most trusted minister and jumped to the high position of imperial censor. Meng Yi became a Taiwei. He and Xiu Jie
Should I continue to be a rice insect in the Xia family?
Jian Jichen was confused about the future, so Xiujie said, "Let's go out and do a small business. How about opening a brothel?"
Jian Jichen rolled his eyes at Xiu Jie and continued to use medicine to rub the frostbite.
