Chapter 69 Goodbye Ying Zheng

"It's really a general's success and his bones are woven!" Gu Xiao walked out of the palace of Xianyang and said with emotion.

He is still the same, but now his identity is very different.

Now, he is no longer a general, but a general.

He has officially entered the ranks of senior generals of Qin. Gu Xiao could see that among the ministers in the hall, most of them were very envious of him.

This was not beyond his expectations. In this Qin State, which values ​​military merit, only military merit is the standard that can determine a person's future.

In fact, in today's era, the so-called seniority is beyond the reach.

In Qin, as long as you have talent, you can reach a high position.

Gu Xiao remembered that later, did Lu Buwei suddenly ascend to the position of prime minister and become the prime minister of Qin with only one person and ten thousand people?

However, no one expressed dissatisfaction with Lu Buwei's sudden appearance, and most people even thought it was a matter of course.

Gu Xiao walked towards the outside of the palace step by step. He was now a general and just wanted to be quiet alone. Even if he had such a close friend as Meng Wu and others, he would not want to pay attention to it for the time being. Fortunately, Meng Wu and others were familiar with his temper. Although he felt very strange about his performance, no one came to disturb him.

This system may be the best system, right?

Gu Xiao recalled some of the situations in his later generations in his mind and thought to himself.

He was very satisfied with this system of valuing military merits and believed that this was the best way to select talents. He remembered that in the later Song and Ming dynasties, the emphasis was on using literature to control military affairs. Military generals were excluded by civil officials and had no place to stay. There was even a saying that good men did not serve in the army and good iron did not make nails.

During the Song and Ming dynasties, perhaps a first-rank military general had to kneel down to salute when he saw a third- and fourth-rank civil servant. No one thought that there was anything wrong with this situation.

During the Song and Ming dynasties, the status of military generals was even worse than that of civil servants. The status of civil servants was constantly elevated, and a dynasty with a prosperous literary style was created.

However, in this case, the biggest result is that the group of civil servants who are popular and delicious all day long do not care about foreign humiliation. As long as they can suppress the status of military generals, those civil servants will not care which emperor is in the dynasty!

Gu Xiao recalled the shameless faces of those civil servants and felt sick.

He did not think that the status of a military general must be higher than that of a civil servant, but he hated the status of a civil servant far higher than that of a military general!

In his opinion, if he becomes a military general, he will definitely be angry with those civil officials who are only good at literary talent, the direct consequence is that no one can fight again!

After all, if you win a battle, if you not only don’t get the reward, but you are also likely to be framed and imprisoned by those shameless civil officials, then who dares to fight?

Gu Xiao thought so and continued to walk outside the palace. At this time, he was not much away from the entrance of the palace. After a while, he could leave the palace and go home.

Thinking of his wife and children at home, Gu Xiao couldn't help but feel warm.

No matter when and where, home is always the warmest harbor, isn’t it?

Unfortunately, at this moment, he was stopped.

"General, please stay!" A little eunuch with a clever face stopped him and stopped him.

"Who are you?" Gu Xiao asked frowned. He didn't think that a little eunuch with no backing had such courage to block his own way. What he wanted to know now was who made this little eunuch block his way.

The little eunuch looked around, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one, he whispered: "General, Mr. Zheng, please invite me!"

Prince Zheng? Zheng'er?

Gu Xiao was shocked.

He hadn't seen Zheng'er for a long time. Since he sent Zheng'er back to the palace almost two years ago, he had almost never seen Zheng'er again.

Occasionally, after seeing Zheng'er in Zichu's palace, this little guy also ignored him.

Gu Xiao sometimes doubts that this little guy won’t hate him anymore, right?

That's just too bad! You know, being hated by Qin Shihuang, the future emperor of the age, would be almost ready for funeral.

Thinking so in his heart, Gu Xiao still followed the little eunuch and walked towards the depths of the palace together.

The Qin Palace is not big. Compared with the Forbidden City in later generations, this Qin Palace can be described as frugal. However, even so, Gu Xiao followed the little eunuch and walked around for about half an hour before coming to a gorgeous hall.

At this moment, a burst of laughter was coming from the hall, and a middle-aged female voice who was a little older was teasing a child's voice.

"Zheng'er, do you want this?"

"Grandmother, Zheng'er wants it, just give it to Zheng'er!"

Gu Xiao listened to the movements coming from inside, and was shocked.

Although he knew that Zheng'er would not suffer any losses in the palace with Zheng'er's cleverness. But what he could not expect was that Zheng'er could actually catch up with Mrs. Huayang's line!

In the hall, there were two voices, one big and one small, and Gu Xiao could hear them clearly. In addition to Zheng'er's voice, there was also the voice of Mrs. Huayang!

"Empress, young master, General Bai Sheng is here." At this moment, the little eunuch should go in first and report.

"Good job, Zhao Gao, you can go down." Zheng'er ordered with a familiar word.

"Yes, young master!" The little eunuch named Zhao Gao retreated as he said.

Zhao Gao? He is Zhao Gao?

Looking at the little eunuch walking past him, Gu Xiao was shocked.

This eunuch who overthrew the Qin Dynasty in the future was such a person?

Fortunately, he had seen enough big shots so he didn't call out.

"General, please come in!" Mrs. Huayang ordered in the hall.

"Thank you, madam!" Gu Xiao thought to himself, it was a blessing or not, it was a disaster, and he walked into the hall with great strides.

"I pay homage to Mrs. Huayang, and to Mrs. Youth!" Gu Xiao stood in the hall and bowed to Mrs. Huayang and Ying Zheng in the hall.

"General, there is no need to be too polite!" said Mrs. Huayang, and after speaking, she raised her hand and helped Gu Xiao up.

Gu Xiao raised his head and met Mrs. Huayang and Zheng'er, who had not seen each other for two years.

At this moment, Mrs. Huayang, who was over forty years old, was sitting gracefully on the chair in the hall, in her arms, and her face was already unfolding. She was wearing a gorgeous new dress and a rosy complexion. It seemed that his life seemed to be very good!
