The Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Transmigrating to Great Qin, Zhao Qingrui found herself with land and money at home, and a cheat system. To avoid becoming cannon fodder in chaotic times, she brought her father to recruit soldiers...

Chapter 264 Xiang Liang escapes shuhaige.net

He didn't care much about the remnants of the six kingdoms. In his opinion, they were just a mob.

Only a few people escaped this time. As long as we catch them, it won’t be a big deal.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, I, the guilty minister Wang Ben, pay my respects to you. I have failed in my duty as a guard. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Wang Ben said respectfully.

His father's illness came suddenly, and as he was old, his condition was quite serious, so he took a few days off to take care of him at home. Unexpectedly, an accident happened at Shanglinyuan.

"I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself from your crime. Cooperate with the Black Ice Platform to bring the man back and make amends for your mistake." Ying Zheng said coldly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely capture the rebels." Wang Ben said firmly. This was his fault. If these people really ran away and joined forces with the remnants of the six countries to create chaos in Daqin, then he would have committed a serious crime.

"Well, how is the teacher?" Pursing his lips, Ying Zheng asked about Wang Jian's situation.

"Your Majesty, my father has a severe cold, and he fell ill because he was too worried. The doctor has said that he will be fine after taking medicine for a few days. Your Majesty, don't worry." Wang Ben said seriously.

"Well, you go and catch him. I and the prince will go see the teacher." Ying Zheng looked at Wang Ben, who had a tired face and bloodshot eyes, and sighed softly.

After everything was arranged here, Ying Zheng took Zhao Qingrui to the Wang family.

Before leaving, Zhao Qingrui asked Lu Zhi to tell Yin Man and Fusu about the situation here and postpone the party.

Many people were surprised that the First Emperor's carriage left the imperial city at this time.

The city of Xianyang was filled with solemnity and no longer as lively as before. There were people on the streets, but they were all very cautious.

Zhao Qingrui saw through the car window that Li Si had acted quickly and had ordered officials to take the portraits of Xiang Liang and others to the downtown area and explain the First Emperor's intentions.

There was a crowd of people gathered there. The reward Zhao Qingrui offered was quite generous. As long as anyone provided clues, they would get one hundred coins. This was all free money. A few people in the crowd had their eyes slightly moved. After understanding the contents of the notice, they left the downtown area without making a sound.

The carriage was moving fast, and the First Emperor was anxious to see Wang Jian, so the driver naturally did not dare to be negligent.

When I arrived at the Wang family, it was relatively quiet at that time. The younger generations of the Wang family followed Zhang Liang to Shu County, and the rest of them were working in the court. Only the women and young children were left at home.

His Majesty came in person, and Wang Jian dragged his sick body to get up to greet him.

Seeing the old man's face look a little gray, both the father and daughter were shocked. The old man didn't look very good.

"Teacher, you are still sick, why did you come out? I am going to be angry." Ying Zheng hurried over to support Wang Jian and said.

"I feel ashamed towards Your Majesty. I failed to teach my son well, which led to the remnants of the Chu State's defection. It is my fault." Wang Jian looked painful.

Rather than being sick, it was naturally more important that Wang Ben failed to do his job well and allowed the remnants of the Chu State to escape.

When someone came to report it, he was shocked.

In recent years, the remnants of the six kingdoms have been relatively honest, while the descendants of the Xiang family have their own troops in Kuaiji County and want to rebel against Qin. Even if they are descendants of Xiang Yan, he is not going to help them.

Xiang Yu is dead, but Xiang Liang and others are still alive. Your Majesty has been merciful enough.

These people are going to defect because Wang Ben didn't do his job well.

"I have already asked Wang Ben to make amends for his crime. I don't care about those remnants of the Chu State. If they run away, I can catch them back. Those people are not as important as the teacher's health." Ying Zheng said seriously as he supported Wang Jian and walked towards the yard.

He was indeed very angry at first, but now he has calmed down. It’s just seven or eight people who ran away, so he can just catch them back.

He also believed in the abilities of Heibingtai and Weiwei.

We have also made preparations for both scenarios and offered a reward for those people, so they will definitely not be able to escape.

The Qin Dynasty today is not the same as before. Under the governance of Zhao Qingrui, the Qin Dynasty has become increasingly prosperous and has won the support of the people. The remnants of the six kingdoms are now powerless.

"Your Majesty is right. They are just a few petty thieves. Grandpa Wang doesn't need to worry about them. Marquis Tongwu and his men are so powerful that they will definitely be able to catch them soon." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

"Ahem, thank you Your Highness for your trust in Wang Ben. Once we bring those people back, I will ask him to go to Zhangtai Palace to apologize. Ahem, your Majesty and the Crown Prince can punish me as you like. I have no complaints." Wang Jian said respectfully, coughing a little severely.

"He made a mistake, and I will definitely punish him. I'm afraid that when the teacher recovers, he will come to the palace to plead for him." Ying Zheng said gently.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I will not do that." Wang Jian felt a little relieved.

After returning to the room, Ying Zheng helped Wang Jian lie down.

"Doctor Xia, please check on the teacher's health." Ying Zheng said to Xia Wuqie, and he took Xia Wuqie with him when he came out.

Wang Jian also obediently let Xia Wuqi examine his body. He knew his own body well. It was in good condition before, especially after practicing that physical skill. He was much healthier than the average elderly person.

But he is old after all.

This time, because of Wang Wei's matter, he thought a lot and tossed and turned at night, unable to sleep. Then he got up and read in the study. The wind blew, and because he thought too much, he fell ill all of a sudden.

After falling ill, he could feel that his health had deteriorated a lot.

It would be difficult to restore it to its previous state.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Wucheng has caught a cold and is overly worried. I will prescribe some medicine to nourish the heart and calm the nerves and treat the cold. Marquis Wucheng will slowly recover after taking them for a few days." Xia Wuqie said seriously.
