Meng Tian's serious illness was a bad news for the Qin Dynasty.

Hu Hai originally wanted Meng Tian to return to Xianyang from the border to recuperate, but Meng Tian has now toured the Yanmen generation in Yunzhong and rushed back to Xianyang from the northern part of the Qin Dynasty. With the fatigue of boats and cars, his condition may worsen.

Before Hu Hai made a decision, he received a memorial from Meng Tian: "Meng Tian bowed his head and bowed to him. The Hu people in the north have had many abnormal movements, and they are eyeing our Qin. Now that the autumn harvest has been completed, I originally wanted to go out of Yunzhong Yanmen to drive out the Huns, but my body couldn't help but drive away. At this critical moment, I was sick and dying. The cold weather in the north is getting worse and worse, and I was lying on my bed, afraid that I would be unable to survive the winter.

When I am in the northern border, I am worried whenever I look at the power of the Huns. The new Shanyu Maodun was heroic and powerful, and he was scattered on the grassland and had unified the large and small tribes of the Huns. Now countries such as the Dayuezhi can no longer compete. The Hu people and wolves are always as ambitious as before. Now there is a powerful lord, and cavalry invade the border, which is becoming more and more frequent. I have ordered Wang Li to guard Yunzhong. I suggest that Your Majesty mobilize Li Jianwei and Huo to the border. The Huns are brave and brave, and they cannot be defeated by these two young and vigorous generals. Please do not be suspicious. As for Han Xin and Li Yuan, they are all talented in command. Please ask Your Majesty to give good appointments and subdue Zhao Tuo in Lingnan. These two must be these two.

I was originally a close confidant of the former crown prince Fusu, and I wanted to die in Yangzhou. I did not want Your Majesty to pardon my ministers under the butcher's knife, kill Zhao Gao, a villain who framed the former crown prince, and pacify the world in the midst of the ups and downs. Seeing Your Majesty quelling rebellions under the dangerous Qin Dynasty and building a college in the land of Wangyi, the ambition is not comparable to that of the barbarian villains. Being able to fight with Your Majesty the king and his ministers is really fortunate to be in three lives.

Today I was silenced and cried bitterly. I was sick and could not see the rise of the Qin Dynasty. I felt very regretful. I was in my life and had a high position. I should not have any prayers. I had no choice but to have my sons and nephews, but I have no ability to establish a foothold. I pray that Your Majesty will allow me to study in the Imperial Academy. Whether I can earn a fortune in the future depends entirely on myself.

I want to be loyal to the Great Qin, but the sky will not be able to pass the New Year. The intentions of my heart are hard to express. I can only bow my head a hundred times and pray for Your Majesty forever and the Great Qin forever..."

On Meng Tian’s letter paper, there was ink dripping with ink. There was ink splashing around the paper, which was completely different from the neat and clean work of the previous melody. There were even traces of tears on it.

Hu Hai knew that this was Meng Tian’s handwritten book undoubtedly.

From Meng Tian’s lines, you can see the heart of an old minister.

Putting down Meng Tian’s memorial, Hu Hai sighed, his eyes as if he had passed through endless land and arrived in the northern border, and saw Meng Tian lying sick on the bed.

"Transfer my will and grant Meng Tian the title of Duke of Ding, which was hereditary. Except for his hereditary eldest son, the other outstanding sons will enter the Imperial Academy of the Qin Dynasty and study at will." After Hu Hai said this, a clerk had long polished his words into an imperial edict and presented them.

Hu Hai looked at the imperial edict and confirmed that it was correct. He spread the imperial edict flatly, picked up the emperor's seal, and covered it heavily on the imperial edict.

The imperial edict was divided into two parts. One was sent directly to Meng Tian’s mansion in Xianyang City, and the other was rushed from Meng Yi to Yunzhong’s county town at 800 miles.

After the 800-mile expedition of imperial edict arrived in Yunzhong County, Meng Yi, who had sent the edict, trotted into the place where Meng Tian's couch was. At this moment, a group of Meng Tian's old generals were surrounding Meng Tian's bed. These men who had seen life and death situations were now full of tears.

A medical officer reached out to touch Meng Tian's pulse. A sad expression appeared on his face, shook his head, and slowly stood up.

Several generals looked at the medical officer and knelt on the ground. Some even hugged the medical officer's legs and refused to let him go.

"Save the General, please save the General." The eight-foot-tall man knelt all over the ground, and anyone's heart would be soft.

The medical officer bowed his hand, tears flowing down his face, but he didn't say anything.

Meng Tian, ​​who was on the sickbed, coughed and said, "Don't be a medical officer. People will always have birth, old age, sickness and death. I have lived for nearly fifty years, and it is not considered a premature death. I killed countless Hu people in the battle formation, which is even more capable. After I go, I will wait for Your Majesty to order and will defend the northern border. Your Majesty is wise now, and you can work hard with me. A Wuhou is indispensable."

After saying this intermittently, he couldn't help but cough. As he coughed, blood actually appeared in his mouth.

"Meng Tian received the order." Meng Yi's face also became gloomy when he saw this scene, but the imperial edict had to be passed on: "Your Majesty said that Meng Tian does not need to be polite, just listen to the order at will."

Meng Tian, ​​whose eyes were already a little dim, heard the arrival of the imperial edict, and immediately became shocked and sat up.

"...Meng Tian was named Duke Ding... She was hereditary... The rest of the philosophers entered the Imperial Academy..." Hearing this, Meng Tian showed a smile on his face, but his face immediately changed drastically. He pointed at Meng Yi who was sending the order tremblingly and said, "Your, Your Majesty..."

Meng Yi immediately stepped forward a few steps, held Meng Tian and whispered: "Brother, don't worry, the two Wuhous, Li Jian and Wei Huo, are already on the way back to Xianyang."

After hearing this, Meng Tian's face finally calmed down again, lying quietly on the bed, as if she was enjoying the last quiet time without any worries.

Meng Yi sat on the edge of the bed, waved his hand gently, and asked the generals to retreat. He held his brother's hand, with no sadness or joy on his face. The two brothers had experienced too much life and death, and now it was his turn, and he was calm in his heart and calm in his face.

"Brother--" Meng Yi wanted to talk to Meng Tian, ​​but when he called out, he couldn't say anything anymore.

The two brothers already have a tacit understanding, and there is no need to say much.

After enduring for a long time, Meng Yi still spoke: "Your Majesty has issued an order that there is a place in the imperial tomb of Mount Li."

Meng Tian's eyes gradually faded from the moment of rejuvenation to now. After hearing this, he just nodded and said softly: "It is a supreme honor to enjoy the imperial tomb. If I had no His Majesty's will, I would have buried it here. I cannot destroy the Hu people in life, and after my death, I will see the day when the Hu people are destroyed. It's a pity..."

"Brother, don't worry. This year, our Qin Dynasty has achieved an unprecedented harvest. There is a Keyuan Academy in the Imperial Academy, and it has developed several new weapons that can be equipped in the army. I am afraid that the Majesty will start war with the Hu people in the beginning of the next spring. The good days for the Hu people are probably this winter. These are all news that is not in the newspaper." Meng Yi whispered some changes in Xianyang, including military, economic and other changes.

Meng Tian also read the bimonthly magazine of Daqin, but some things that were first used for military industry must be kept confidential and cannot be reported in the monthly magazine. It was only Meng Yi who told him that he listened quietly, and the smile on his face gradually solidified.

That night, Hu Hai was reviewing the memorial in Wuxin Hall, and suddenly felt upset and wanted to go out for some breath.

He pushed open the door of Wuxin Hall, looked at the stars outside, took a deep breath, and exhaled the turbid air in his chest. The feeling of depression not only did not ease, but was even more obvious.

"Transfer to the Xia Medical Officer." Hu Hai said softly.

Xia You is in the palace, Ruizhu is pregnant and needs medical attention.

"Your Majesty." Xia You's voice came from behind Hu Hai.

"I feel a little chest tightness and can't breathe." Hu Hai smelled the fragrance of Xia You, turned around and looked at Xia You's miserable face, but felt inexplicably calm down.

"Please enter the side hall and lie flat on the couch. I will take your majesty's pulse." Xia You's nice voice was in an absolute contrast with her ugly face.

Hu Hai nodded, turned around and looked at the stars in the sky for the last time, and was about to enter the hall.

But suddenly I saw a meteor the size of a jade plate falling from south to north, looking at the direction of the clouds.
