How many clean people can be invited by the Shadow Guard and Luo Net?
"I still want to go. Lord Long obviously doesn't want to make things worse, otherwise what he sends will not be an invitation but a criminal indictment!" A family head finally analyzed the key point.
If Xianyang really wanted to touch them, Shadow Guards and Luo Wang would have done it long ago instead of inviting them to a banquet.
As for escaping, they didn't think they could escape. If they were caught by the Shadow Guard and Luo Sheng, they would naturally not have another chance to escape.
When everyone gathered in Xianyang and rushed to the Youxiang Mansion for the banquet on the appointed day, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"The Feng family of Shangdang, the Chen family of Chenjun, the Zhang family of Yingchuan..."
The more people who come, the higher their status, and the more at ease all the family heads feel. After all, it is impossible for Da Qin and Xianyang to attack so many of them at the same time, otherwise Da Qin's local rule will have problems.
"There are no masters and no soldiers ambushing in secret!" The guards of each family head immediately observed the environment of Youxiang's Mansion, fearing that there were hidden soldiers in Youxiang's Mansion.
"Do you think Lord Long needs to arrange armored soldiers if he wants to kill us?" The head of the Sima family in Xishu was extremely calm.
With Jin Yao's cultivation and strength, he could kill all of them by himself, and there was no need to arrange any armored soldiers to perform a show of throwing cups as a sign of victory.
"It's not just us, King An of Han, King Jian of Qi, and King Wei are also here!" In everyone's astonishment, they discovered that the people invited were actually the princes who once dominated the area.
This made them even more confused about this banquet.
Inviting them is to beat them, they all thought of this on the way.
But inviting these former princes and kings again left them a little confused.
The lanterns were lit and the banquet started normally. Jin Yao also arrived belatedly, but he didn't say much. It was as normal as an ordinary banquet.
But no one can really let go and eat, they are all waiting for the main event to come.
But it wasn't like there was no one there. For example, Qi Wangjian was eating and drinking as he should, and he wasn't nervous at all.
"Can the king still eat it?" The old ministers of Qi State all looked at their former king in astonishment.
"Da Qin and Xianyang need me and won't touch me, so I have nothing to worry about!" Qi Wangjian said calmly.
There is no other person in the world who can transform from the king of a subjugated country into one of the decision-makers of the Qin Dynasty.
Jimo and others also understood. They did not expect that after Qi Wang Jian stepped down from the position of king, he seemed to have opened up the two lines of Ren and Governor, and could directly enter the top management of Xianyang and become one of the indispensable leaders of the Qin Dynasty.
Finally, the banquet came to an end, but no one dared to leave early, everyone was waiting for the highlight to come.
Jin Yao also waved away the dancing girl and other miscellaneous people, leaving only the heads of each family behind.
"These things should be familiar to all of you, right?" Jin Yao clapped his hands, and Zhang Han and Li Hua sent the evidence to each family head that the Shadow Guards and Luo Wang had collected, accusing them of their involvement in the rebellion.
When everyone saw the incriminating evidence in their hands, their expressions changed drastically, and they understood that there is no such thing as a good banquet.
"Burn them all!" Jin Yao waved his hand again, and the Shadow Guards and Luo Wang's assassins also threw all the evidence into the furnace in the hall.
The firelight shone on everyone's faces, but all the family heads could be seen visibly relieved, knowing that the lives of the entire family could be temporarily saved.
"Just tell Mr. Long if you have any errands, and I won't say anything about it!" Doctor Jimo knew very well that what was burned was only the backup, and Jin Yao could get it at any time if he wanted it.
Jin Yao smiled and signaled Jing Salamander to bring up a map of the Far West.
"This is a map of a newly discovered civilized land in Da Qin!" Jin Yao introduced the situation, customs and customs of the Middle East to everyone in detail.
"Lord Long wants to exile our entire clan!" Doctor Jimo reacted instantly.
Generally speaking, nobles and scholar-bureaucrats are rarely punished with capital punishment, and exile is the most severe punishment.
Now that Jin Yao has presented this map, it is obvious that he wants to exile their entire family to this unknown civilization.
"Don't say it so harshly. What is exile? This is a reward!" Jin Yao looked at everyone with a smile, and at the same time tore off the map of the Middle East again. What appeared again was the map of the Middle East, but with the names of the forces marked on the map.
They have also become the names of families in various places.
"You have three years to leave the inheritance and the inheritors in China and Great Qin. After three years, you must arrive at the place indicated on the map!" Jin Yao said coldly.
"Great Qin will give you a reward edict and provide you with initial supplies. All you need to do is to open up and expand the territory of China, and Great Qin will not interfere in any of your local affairs!" Jin Yao continued.
"Self enfeoffment?" Jimo understood immediately.
This is to send them out of China, let them follow the path of their ancestors, go to new places to overcome thorns and thorns, and expand the territory of China.
Correspondingly, the land gained will also be their own!
Just like how the Emperor of Zhou originally enfeoffed the princes from all directions, the princes had absolute autonomy in their localities and could even have their own armies, and no longer needed to be controlled by the Emperor of Zhou!
It's just that now it's the Qin Dynasty that entrusts the emperor instead of the Zhou Emperor.
"Stay in the Qin Dynasty or go to Seleucus, you all can make your own choice. I will never settle the scores with you later!" Jin Yao said and turned around and left the banquet hall.
The heads of each family looked at each other, looking at each other, not knowing how to make a decision.
"Do you have any choice?" Qi Wangjian drank all the wine in the bottle and asked sarcastically.
If you don't plan to settle the scores later, why burn the evidence of their crimes in front of them?
If you don’t plan to settle the scores after the fall, why did you mention this before leaving?
It is basically telling these people that you have no choice, either go, or your whole family will ascend!
"Don't think about taking away all your family's inheritance. Although the Zhou Dynasty's enfeoffment is still a long time ago, the essence of enfeoffment should be familiar to everyone!" Qi Wangjian continued to remind.
The Zhou Dynasty can enfeoff the princes, but the princes are also required to send their heirs to the Zhou Dynasty as a pledge.
Therefore, if they want to take the inheritance away, they will never be able to leave Great Qin!
And even when Seleucid established his own power, before he could challenge the Qin Dynasty, every king had to send his heir to Xianyang as a pledge.
Even the king's succession needs to be canonized by Xianyang, otherwise Xianyang has the right to call on the surrounding princes to attack.
This is the real enfeoffment. The reason why the seven heroes stood together in the Warring States Period was because the Zhou Dynasty lost control of the princes and the Zhou Dynasty declined.
The current Great Qin is a rising star, heading towards its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is not something that the nobles who have just been enfeoffed can resist.
