Chapter 314 Granting Land

Yongcheng Palace.

The wind shook the shadows, and murderous intent appeared outside the window. The figures of the Luowen assassins who were guarding outside fell to the ground one after another. The door opened, and a group of swordsmen in black rushed in and knelt on one knee.

"Xiangbang!"

Lu Buwei opened his eyes, but instead of the joy of being rescued, he asked.

"How did you get in?"

There should be many forbidden troops in the palace, and with the masters of the net, they should not be able to break in so easily.

"I waited outside for a long time, looking for an opportunity, but there were so many guards in the palace that we couldn't break in. It wasn't until a few hours ago that the guards in the palace were mobilized in large numbers that we found an opportunity."

"It seems that Lao Ai is already stretched thin."

This palace is Lao Ai's base camp, so he must have the necessary troops to stay behind. The redeployment of troops here shows that he is in trouble on the front line.

Lu Buwei stood up, glanced at Zhao Ji beside him, and bowed his hands.

"Queen Mother, you should immediately take charge of the overall situation of leaving the palace and stabilize people's hearts. Don't forget what I told you."

After saying that, Lu Buwei led the people away without looking back.

Qinian Palace.

King Qin had a sword on his waist, with one hand against the hilt of the sword, standing on the platform of the palace, observing the battle in the distance.

Outside the Qinian Palace, there were more and more flags of Lord Changping and Lord Changwen. Their army broke through the rebel defenses, and a force had already rushed in to meet with the defenders of Qinian Palace.

Lord Changping hurried over, stepped up the steps, walked in front of King Qin, and bowed his hands in salute.

"Your Majesty, I'm late!"

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Changping came just in time."

King Qin smiled. Soon, there were new changes outside the palace.

"Is Xiangbang here too?"

Lu Buwei hurried over like Lord Changping, but he was not as steady as Lord Changping. When Lu Buwei came to the King of Qin, he was already out of breath.

"Your Majesty, I'm late."

"It's better to come than not to come!"

King Qin was already surrounded by ministers. Many Qin officials in Guanzhong entered the Qinian Palace after Lord Changping broke through the rebel defense line. Their troops gathered one after another and were displayed outside the Qinian Palace, matching the forces of the rebels.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be something strange happening with the rebels."

At this moment, Li Si pointed at the rebel forward troops in the distance. Everyone looked for what Li Si was hoping for, and there seemed to be a certain degree of commotion on the rebel side.

What's going on?

Lord Changping had no idea what was happening there. In a short period of time, the riot turned into a rout, and a large number of rebel flags fell down.

Then, a cavalry unit came from the direction of the rebel camp towards Qinian Palace.

"what's going on?"

Chang Pingjun asked the captain who came to report, but heard him report.

"Hanyang Jun is here!"

At this moment, the expressions of many people present changed drastically. Why did Lord Hanyang come from the rebel side?

However, time is short and changes occur again. Zhao Shuang led more than twenty generals, all holding boxes in their hands, through the palace gates and arrived at the main hall.

"See your Majesty!"

Zhao Shuang bowed his hands and the generals behind him knelt down.

King Qin asked with a smile on his face.

"Why did Lord Hanyang come from the direction of the rebel camp?"

"My king's coming to power is a major event celebrated by the whole world. I went to get the congratulations specially, so I was a little slow."

"What congratulations?"

"The king's seal, the Queen Mother's seal, and more than twenty thieves, big and small, were stolen by the rebels!"

A group of generals opened the box. Except for the Wang Xi and the Queen Mother's Xi in the box in Zhao Shuang's hand, the rest were heads.

The expressions of all the ministers changed, and Lord Changping's eyes flashed. He was originally the person who contributed the most to countering the rebellion, but now, with the appearance of these twenty boxes, all the glory has shrouded Zhao Shuang.

In comparison, Lord Changping took the lead in leading troops into Qinian Palace, which was nothing.

Whether it was Han Fei, Li Si, or Zhao Gao, who had been hiding behind him inconspicuously, their expressions were extremely complicated at this moment.

"Han Yangjun only had a hundred guards, but he was able to kill the traitor Lao Ai among thousands of troops. It's really impressive."

Lu Buwei touched his beard and spoke slowly.

"The rebels acted against the enemy. The more than twenty generals and commanders behind me were all dissatisfied with Lao Ai's atrocities, so they obeyed the righteousness and led their troops to eliminate the rebels."

The situation has been decided, and it can even be said that the rebellion is over. What remains is a sporadic crackdown and the sentencing and punishment of all those involved.

"I accept this congratulation."

King Qin waved his hand, making Zhao Shuang and more than twenty generals behind him stand up.

"Han Yangjun granted 20,000 households more titles and granted them land. Your Majesty will be promoted to two levels of nobility and will grant you 100,000 yuan. The rest of the meritorious deeds will be rewarded as appropriate."

"I would like to thank the king for your kindness."

The rebels are set. Under the watchful eyes of all his ministers, the King of Qin took over the symbol of Qin's highest power and began to take charge of the strongest kingdom among the seven kingdoms in the world.

However, the dispute will not end with Lao Ai's death. On the contrary, it will become more intense.

At the end of the ceremony, King Qin left the palace towards Yongcheng. Some of the courtiers in Qinian Palace returned to their duties, and some led their troops to suppress the troops, but Zhao Shuang seemed very relaxed.

Zhao Shuang lay on the railing and watched the palace servants and guards cleaning up the traces of the war under the cover of night. Next, the Qin court will reward those who have made meritorious service in the process of suppressing the rebellion. It is not only a reward for meritorious service, but also a way to appease people's hearts.

"Hanyang Jun is really in a good mood."

Lu Buwei came from behind and spoke.

"The traitors have been eliminated. Isn't Prime Minister in good spirits?"

"I am old and my eyes are dim. I don't know that Lord Hanyang has placed so many chess pieces around Lao Ai?"

Those twenty or so people do not have high positions in the army. The highest position is just that of captain. They usually look very inconspicuous, but at critical moments, the strength in the hands of these people can exert unexpected effects. , completely changed the situation.

"Then, the box from Wei State should be in the hands of Lord Hanyang now!"

Zhao Shuang smiled and didn't even look back.

"What box?"

"Han Yangjun's plot is really big. But you must know that the Jing Salaman woman is your weakness. I am afraid that many people want to use her to find leverage on the Lord at this moment."

"Thank you, Xiangbang, for telling me, but at this moment, Xiangbang is probably in far more trouble than I am."

Lu Buwei frowned and asked.

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"My evidence has not yet come to light, but Xiangbang, will Luo Wang let me go? Many of them are anxious to find a new master at the moment."

Lu Buwei's expression changed, and he suddenly said something bad in his heart. After all, he was too careless and ignored the most important and most restless factor, the snare.

Lu Buwei no longer had the leisure he had just now, and left here in a hurry.

Zhao Shuang glanced back at Lu Buwei's figure, smiled softly, and looked up at the night.
