Chapter 735: A unique reward

Suddenly, Zhao Tuo's body tense, he knelt on one knee respectfully, and said aloud: "I'm here!"

Although his face was nervous, his eyes were filled with excitement.

According to the merits and rewards of the military generals before, even though his position is low, the merits he made in this battle will definitely be promoted to two levels!

Even, I am extremely excited about the improvement of my position!

As long as you can get greater power, why worry about not being able to make contributions with your own abilities?

In my heart, I am already full of yearning for the future power!

The scenes that I had fantasized about in my mind countless times along the way are about to come true!

Zhao Gao elongated his tone and chanted loudly: "Zhao Tuo performed very well in the southern expedition, so he deserves to be rewarded..."

Suddenly, Zhao Tuo's face showed ecstasy!

Tu Sui and Ren Xiao, who were old ministers, frowned and noticed a different smell.

Qin Xuan turned his head and looked at the young general who was kneeling on the ground and waiting for the reward, and his lips couldn't help but rise.

Just as I was looking forward, a sharp sound came from above.

"However... according to the detailed reward, Zhao Tuo repeatedly made good promises to the tribes along the way during the conquest, and was suspected of being usurped!

Those who commit such a crime of contempt of imperial power will be sentenced to be beheaded by the Tingwei Mansion!

Come, take it down and behead it!"

Immediately, the two guards stepped in.

One left and one right, he grabbed Zhao Tuo's arm and pulled it out.

Zhao Tuo recovered from his traction, and the joy on his face disappeared instantly.

His face was full of fear, panic, and confusion.

He didn't understand, and he clearly stated that he would be rewarded for meeting the emperor.

Why did everyone in front of you get the reward, but when you get here, you become a head-cut?

I had previously fantasized about how to get promoted and become a title, and when I had enough power, I chose a young man to join in.

Although it is extremely dangerous to participate in the battle for the throne, if you fail, you will end up dead.

But for Zhao Tuo, who was born into a survivor of the six countries, he wanted to go further than the Qin Dynasty.

Unless you can get the emperor's appreciation.

Otherwise, you can only take the risk of making a profit and reach a high position with the credit of support.

Otherwise, with the identity of the survivors of the six countries, it would be impossible for them to go too far in the court.

Although the General was of high power, he was only a minister of the Qin Dynasty.

God knows if this powerful man will be in trouble one day if he is in trouble.

He has no ability to push himself to a higher position.

Therefore, Zhao Tuo had thought about how to make friends with his eldest son Fusu.

Unexpectedly, this sudden result would be obtained.

He really couldn't figure it out. He clearly made great contributions in the war, so why did he despise the imperial power?

He shouted anxiously: "Your Majesty, why... why!"

Unfortunately, I received no response.

Helplessly, he could only shout: "General, save me... save me..."

Then

Just got pulled down.

From beginning to end, Qin Xuan did not look back after hearing the edict.

For Ren Xiao, he can open his mind.

This military achievements are enough to make him gain a foothold in Xianyang for his elderly care.

After all, it is still unclear whether it was Ren Xiao’s idea or Zhao Tuo’s idea that the southern army did not listen to the orders in history to send troops back to serve the king.

However, Qin Xuan is more inclined to what Zhao Tuo does!

When Daqin was in chaos, Ren Xiao happened to be seriously ill, which was a coincidence.

And with the demise of the Qin Dynasty, Ren Xiao died after a few years.

That would be even more coincidental!

Perhaps, Ren Xiao had the idea of ​​commanding the Southern Legion for many years and was responsible for his own troops.

But the person who implemented it in the end was indeed Zhao Tuo!

If Zhao Tuo could send 200,000 troops and attack Xiang Yu in front and behind, history would probably have been rewritten!

Qin Xuan was worried about the demise of the Qin Dynasty in history.

He actually watched the demise of the Qin Dynasty. After sucking the blood of the Qin Dynasty, he immediately became king, which shows his wolfish ambition!

In Qin Xuan's opinion, this person is more hateful than Chen Sheng and Wu Guang who were forced to rebel in order to survive, and deserves to be killed!

Leaving someone born with a rebellious bone will only become a disaster.

This has nothing to do with whether there are any means to suppress it.

For those who are superior, they hate betrayal even more!

In an instant, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.

Don’t understand why the emperor wanted to kill a general who made great achievements?

Even Ren Xiao was so optimistic about him that he opened his mouth wide in surprise!

Zhao Tuo is young and has the talent of a general. As long as he is cultivated, he will definitely be a sharp sword for the court to conquer the court in the future!

If it weren't for Qin Xuan's sake, I'm afraid the First Emperor would think so.

Otherwise, in history, Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo would not have been allowed to lead the southern army to conquer Baiyue for a second time!

Ren Yang opened his mouth but still didn't dare to say pleading.

It is one thing to appreciate this junior, but it is angering the emperor and putting himself in. That is another thing.

What's more, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the general attaches great importance to this person.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought him to Beijing to meet His Majesty the Emperor!

If the general didn't even plead with him, what's up to me?

In the eyes of civil and military officials in the court, especially the generals who returned from the southern expedition, this is the emperor who wants to kill Zhao Tuo!

It has nothing to do with the general...

At the same time, everyone's hearts couldn't help but feel worried on their faces.

If they hadn't finished reading the reward, they would have to worry about whether it would be the turn to kill him next!

After all, when discussing the Nanzheng period, the general ordered the conquering Lingnan with minimal casualties.

If you can not fight, try to appease and incorporate.

To be honest, in order to avoid casualties during the conquest, they also comforted many tribes with promises, allowing them to take the initiative to put down their weapons and accept the rule of the Qin Dynasty.

If they really count this way, wouldn’t they have to be guilty of contempt for imperial power?

For a moment, the generals were all silent and did not dare to take a breath. They had long lost the joy they had just now!

The First Emperor sat upright and spoke without saying anything from beginning to end.

The son sent a private message to report the reward and beheading of this edict.

Ying Zheng still trusts that son's ability very much.

Even, I didn't even ask the reason!

Since his son said he wanted to kill this person, he was too lazy to ask more questions.

Anyway, he is an insignificant little person, and he is still a survivor of the six countries. If he kills him, he will kill him.

Just list one crime, it’s all a trivial matter!

Come here for a moment

Ying Zheng glanced at him with majestic eyes, and no one in the court except his eldest son dared to look at him.

Then he nodded with satisfaction.

Zhao Gao immediately understood and raised his tone and said, "All the heroes are welcome to take their seats, and the celebration banquet...begin~!"

Under the order, the palace maids came in one after another with plates of delicious food.

The generals who returned from the Southern Expedition sat in their own position under guidance until the singing and dancing became peaceful, and their hearts fell down!

but

After Zhao Tuo's incident, these heroes no longer had appetite.

Even eating the delicacies carefully cooked by the imperial chefs in the palace is like utter wax!
