On the seventh day after having the hallucination of a falling sun from the sky, Lin Ze received two secret letters from Chang'an.
They are letters from Huang Banban and Jin Yiwei respectively.
Huang Banban's letter was actually a reply to Lin Ze's letter asking for information a few days ago.
Huang Banban's letter described that Xianyang Palace suddenly became heavily guarded during this period, and many eunuchs and maids who violated the prohibition had been arrested, and these maids and eunuchs, without exception, were all killed with sticks.
Then, Zhao Gao summoned the eunuchs and chief eunuchs in charge of each palace, including him, and warned them all, telling them to take good care of their people, so as not to be implicated and regret it too late.
Finally, Huang Banban said that due to martial law, it would be more difficult to find out information in the future, so he could only try his best to pass on the information.
After reading it, Lin Ze threw it aside and opened the letter from Jin Yiwei.
I saw that the above just briefly described one thing. On the seventh day of the first lunar month of winter, while His Majesty was handling the memorial in the Yangxin Hall, he shot all the eunuchs except Zhao Gao for no reason.
After Lin Ze read it, his first reaction was to kill and silence him.
On the seventh day of the first lunar month of winter, if Lin Ze remembered correctly, it was the second day after he "saw" the sun falling from the sky.
Lin Ze frowned and thought to himself: Something big must have happened in Xianyang Palace, so Emperor Qin would silence those eunuchs. And this matter is most likely about Emperor Qin.
In terms of age, Emperor Qin will probably reach five hundred years old in less than a month. Is five hundred years old a hurdle?
Lin Ze then shook his head. Compared with their age, Lu Chunqiu and the others were older than Emperor Qin. If the grandmaster's lifespan was only five hundred years, they would have died long ago.
No, we have to think of a way to figure out what happened. If there is really a problem with Emperor Qin, we should have made preparations early. All the previous arrangements have to be readjusted.
Lin Ze was so angry that he shattered the two secret letters and said to the waiter outside the door: "Go and invite Mr. Chen Ping to come over."
The waiter immediately bowed and left.
Then Chen Ping hurried over and asked, "Uncle, I have called my nephew over. What's the urgent matter?"
Lin Ze replied with a serious face: "You should reply to Eunuch Huang for me and tell him that this is a serious matter and ask him to figure out the root cause of the recent changes in Xianyang Palace at all costs."
"In addition, you tell him that I suspect that the recent anomalies are related to His Majesty, and ask him to be careful and not to get himself involved."
Chen Ping said with a solemn expression: "Is what Uncle Master said true? If it really involves Your Majesty, Eunuch Huang may not dare to..."
Halfway through, Chen Ping stopped talking. His meaning was very obvious. Once Emperor Qin was involved, few people would dare to make any changes.
Lin Ze's face remained unchanged and said: "Then write him a letter in the name of the young master, and he will find a way. You have to know that the more critical the moment, the smooth flow of information is particularly important. If the information he sends out can make people
If we take the initiative and pay a price, what does it matter?"
Chen Ping's expression changed slightly, then returned to normal, and he cupped his hands towards Lin Ze and said, "Master nephew, let's do it now, but master uncle, don't forget to give the young master a break. After all, Eunuch Huang is a person close to the young master, and he can easily offend the master.
As far as I'm concerned, it's of no benefit."
Lin Ze said calmly: "I understand, everything I did is definitely for the good of Mr. Hu Hai. If it is as I expected, it will be too late for Mr. Huang to thank me. You must know that sometimes, if you don't advance, you will die."
Chen Ping was solemn.
Then Lin Ze suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, the news from Chang'an's Jin Yiwei this time is very good. Please reward it and let them also collect information at any cost."
Chen Ping nodded and left.
…
After Chen Ping left, Lin Ze asked the waiter to summon Han Xin and Yu Ziqi.
After the two arrived, Lin Ze asked: "How is the farming incident going?"
Han Xin cupped his hand and replied: "Reporting to the military advisor, things are going very smoothly so far. Nearly 20,000 people have been resettled in the fields. It is expected that in a few months, the tasks set by the military advisor will be completed."
Lin Ze thought for a while and said, "Okay, from tomorrow onwards, the field work will be suspended. It may be of great use if you seize the time to rest and reorganize the army."
Han Xin was stunned, thinking he heard wrongly, and asked in disbelief: "Stop farming?"
Lin Ze nodded: "Yes, let's make arrangements."
Han Xin did not move, but looked at Lin Ze as if he was hesitant to speak.
Lin Ze raised his eyebrows and said, "Speak directly if you have anything to say, why do you have to be so pretentious?"
Han Xin said with a hint of sadness on his face: "Ask the military advisor, if there is nothing too important, it is better not to change the order day and night. This will lose the general's prestige. Once the soldiers no longer believe in the general, big problems may arise."
Lin Ze said calmly: "You should know that fighter planes change rapidly and are fleeting. I have my own reasons for doing this. I have given you full responsibility for the military camp affairs and I have not interfered too much, but there are some things
, you have to do it.”
"If you can't guarantee the execution of orders and prohibitions even with an 80,000-strong army, how can I trust you to take charge of more armies in the future? And what's the difference between an army that can't obey orders and a so-called rabble? Han Xin, as a military disciple, you,
You can’t even do this, right?”
Han Xin's face changed slightly, and he quickly raised his hands and replied: "Please rest assured, military advisor, my subordinates will definitely complete the military advisor's orders."
Lin Ze stepped forward and patted Han Xin on the shoulder and said: "The situation will become more and more complicated in the future. You can safely lead the Sirius Army for me and the Young Master. Your glory and wealth will definitely not be missing in the future."
Han Xin nodded repeatedly.
Lin Ze said to Yu Ziqi: "The same goes for you. The two of you will serve the young master well and the future will be limitless. Go ahead."
The two of them raised their hands together and said, "My subordinates resign." After saying that, they left together.
Lin Ze looked at the two people leaving with deep eyes.
Why did Lin Ze cut down the army and cultivate the fields? On the one hand, it was to cultivate millions of acres of fertile land, and on the other hand, it was to avoid the suspicion of Emperor Qin.
In the past, the conquest of the barbarians was used as an excuse to conscript a large number of troops. In addition, there was a good relationship between Hu Hai and Emperor Qin, so there was no hidden danger.
But now that the barbarians have finished fighting, you still have an army of 80,000, isn't it arousing suspicion?
Lin Zecai thought of a compromise, changing the identity of the army to farming.
Anyway, I can barely explain it.
But now, seeing that a big change is about to happen, Lin Ze will naturally not continue the farming matter to avoid having to go back and forth.
But this preparation alone was not enough, so Lin Ze wrote a secret letter and had someone send it out, and then quietly waited for feedback.
Half an hour later, a servant walked into Lin Ze's official hall grandly, saluted Lin Ze and said, "Tang San pays homage to your lord. I wonder what your orders are for me?"
