Da Qin: I became friends with Zhao Zheng

Chapter 191 Chapter 190: There is no more Mi in the court

"Ask Wang Jian?" Yao Xing knew that she couldn't persuade Zhao Zheng, so she asked him to ask Wang Jian. Maybe Wang Jian didn't want his granddaughter to enter the palace to serve a man with other women!

"When he returns to court after victory, I will bestow grace on the Wang family." Zhao Zheng said in a benevolent tone.

Yao Xing was quite speechless. It was not yet certain whether he was willing or not, so he had to issue an edict directly.What if Wang Jian felt sorry for his granddaughter and didn't want his granddaughter to waste time entering the palace, so he rejected him in public, how embarrassing he would be!

Although Wang Jian is loyal to the emperor, he should not refuse.

After returning to the palace, he saw Mi Hua leading the whole Mi family to plead guilty outside Zhao Zheng's study. It looked like he had been kneeling for a long time. Mi Hua's face was pale and the old man was shaky.

Zhao Zheng said nothing and walked past them with Yao Xing, as if he couldn't see them.

In the palace, Zhao Zheng looked at the Wang sword taken off from his waist and hesitated.

The Mi family contributed a lot to his pro-government affairs. If the whole family is accused, they will inevitably end up with a reputation of cruelty and cruelty.

But if he just let them go, let Mi Qi's tribe go, he would not be willing to do so.If the crime of surrendering to the enemy and treason was easily exposed, and everyone followed suit in the future, wouldn't Great Qin be destroyed?

"What do you think we should do with the Mi clan?" Zhao Zheng is now used to discussing with Yao Xing when he has any hesitations.

Yao Xing put the thing in her hand and blinked: "If Mi Qi wins and returns to the court, will the king show favor to Mi Qi, or will it be the Mi family?"

Yao Xing still feels that human life is precious. Even in this era, if people can avoid death, they still hope not to die.

If others defect to the enemy and treason, Yao Xing will not dissuade them, but Mi can be killed or not, and will not cause any harm to Qin.Yao Xing couldn't bear it, so she simply tried to persuade him.

The Mi clan was continued after Empress Dowager Xuan's younger brother came to Xianyang. They had made great contributions to the country, and both Empress Dowager Xuan and Empress Dowager Huayang were descended from the Mi clan. This title served as a protective umbrella for the Mi clan.Zhao Zheng just hesitated because of this.

Zhao Zheng stopped talking again, and Yao Xing didn't bother him either. He did whatever he was supposed to do and tried to stay quiet.

It wasn't until night fell and there were screams of someone fainting outside that Zhao Zheng issued the royal edict and asked the servants to go out and read it out.

All members of the Mi clan were dismissed from office and demoted. All Mi clan members, except Mi Qi's descendants, could choose to live in Xianyang or leave.If Mi Qi's son can persuade him to surrender, capture him alive, and kill him, he will not be guilty of any crime.

Otherwise, those who have made meritorious service to the country will be exiled, and those who have made no meritorious service will sacrifice the flag in front of the formation.

Yao Xing remembers that Mi Lu seems to be Mi Qi's son, who was sent to be an official somewhere before.I heard from Zhao Zheng that he has some talents and he should be promoted in a few years.He was not among the people kneeling outside. I don't know if they ran away after hearing the news or came back because they were too late.

After the king's edict was read out, the elders of the Mi clan were helped away by several juniors.The only people still kneeling on the spot were a few middle-aged men who could take charge, and Mi Qi's two sons.

They were willing to persuade Mi Qi to surrender. If they failed, they would kill themselves in front of the battle to apologize.But Zhao Zheng didn't want to give them the chance to surrender to the enemy, so he let them kneel all night, and then went to court early the next day and ordered Mi Lu to go and persuade them to surrender.The other two sons and Mi Lu's heirs stayed in Xianyang. If Mi Lu surrendered to the enemy, those who stayed in Xianyang would be killed without mercy.

Mi Lu is the most talented person in this generation of the Mi family. If he really wants to rebel against Qin, Mi Lu will be the enemy of Qin. Therefore, others can let him go, but Mi Lu will never be able to.
