Chapter 1391: People’s minds are fickle, awakening from a dream
Xuan Mo's fourth generation was the son of a general. His father was a powerful general of the Qin State, and his mother was the sister of the Qin emperor.
In this life, he was born with a golden key in his mouth. When he was just one month old, all the civil and military officials of the Qin court came to his house to celebrate. Even the emperor of Qin, the highest authority in the country, sent him a gift, a golden lock that could grant him immunity from death.
The birth of Xuan Mo made the people of the entire Qin State extremely envious, because they knew that if nothing unexpected happened, this little general would grow up without worries about food and clothing and without any burden, and then successfully take over the half of the tiger talisman in his father's hand and become the future general of the Qin State!
In fact, this was true before Xuanming was twelve years old.
He was born noble, so it was inevitable that he had to live a life of luxury every day. Not only that, his mother sent him to the palace at a young age to study with the crown prince under the tutelage of the most knowledgeable teacher in the world. His father also traveled around the world and eventually subdued the so-called leader of the martial arts world to teach him martial arts.
In just twelve years, little Xuanmo could be considered a man of both literary and martial talents. Even his teacher praised his knowledge, and in terms of martial arts, even his father felt inferior to him.
However, in the same year, foreign tribes invaded, and the Qin State sent Xuan Mo's father to resist the foreign tribes.
This was also the only time Xuan Mo's father was defeated, which resulted in the loss of important border cities, and 300,000 soldiers and civilians were slaughtered by foreign races, staining the land with blood!
The Qin emperor was furious and punished the Qin family.
Xuan Mo's father's subordinates were furious and killed the imperial envoy who came to deliver the imperial edict on the spot. At this moment, all the generals' confidants encouraged the general to mutiny.
However, Xuan Mo's father cut off the imperial envoy's head with one knife, and took his head to the capital alone to meet the emperor.
Before leaving, he only said one sentence: "If I mutiny, Emperor Qin will die, but my wife and children will also die! I can die, but my wife and children must not die!!"
Sure enough, when the general returned to the capital after being defeated in the battle, all his past honors were gone, all the praises disappeared, and the people in the city seemed to have known that he would return today, and they prepared rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves in advance.
From the moment the general entered the city, all the people pointed at him and cursed him, and all kinds of rotten eggs and vegetable leaves flew towards the general.
At this moment, it seemed as if he was not a great general of the Qin Dynasty, but a prisoner being paraded through the streets.
When the general arrived at the palace gate, he was already covered in blood. He looked up and found that the emperor and his children were there.
"I returned from the battle defeated, which resulted in the tragic deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians at the border. I am guilty!"
"But my wife and children are innocent. I hope Your Majesty can let them go!"
The general threw the imperial envoy's head in front of the emperor, then drew his sword and committed suicide in full view of everyone.
“After investigation, it was confirmed that the general attempted to usurp the throne through a coup and colluded with foreign tribes to murder civilians at the border, resulting in the tragic deaths of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians. His crimes are truly unforgivable!
Although the general committed suicide out of fear of punishment, his nine clans cannot escape the blame. Pass on my order to execute his nine clans to shock the world! ! "
The words of the Great Qin Emperor resounded throughout the imperial capital. Finally, he looked at the numb little Xuan Mo beside him and asked with a smile: "My good nephew, do you hate me?"
Xiao Xuanmo shook his head upon hearing this, and then said to the Great Qin Emperor: "The Master taught us that a general should be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and anyone who has a rebellious heart is a thief of the country and should be executed!
The general is a good father, but not a good subject. He deserves to die!!”
"really?"
The Great Qin Emperor was surprised when he heard this, with a gleam in his eyes.
Behind Xiao Xuanmo, two powerful golden-armored guards simultaneously grasped the swords at their waists, waiting for the emperor's order.
"Uncle, of course it's true. You are the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, you are the master of all people. Anyone who goes against you is a thief and should be killed!"
Little Xuanmo nodded seriously, then he touched the gold locket on his chest with a frightened look on his face, and said with some fear: "But I am also the son of a big thief, so I should die too, right?"
“By the way, my mother once told me that if I were to die one day, she would tell me to return this lock to my uncle, and then I could live.
Is that right?
uncle……"
Xiao Xuanmo looked at the Great Qin Emperor with a nervous look on his face, and the latter immediately burst into laughter.
"Of course it's true. Everyone else can die, but you don't, because you are my nephew!"
"The prince has always liked you!"
"Give me back the golden lock of immunity from death!"
The Great Qin Emperor took the golden lock and cut it off with a knife. Then he grinned at Xiao Xuanmo and said, "Just think of this golden lock as having died for you once!"
"Thank you, uncle!!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuanmo prostrated himself on the ground in ecstasy, kowtowing his head in gratitude, just like a dog wagging its tail to beg for mercy.
"Your home is gone. From today on, you will live in the palace!"
"From now on, you will be a knife in my hand. Wherever the blade points, all the rebels in the world will be terrified!!"
The Great Qin Emperor spoke expressionlessly.
On that day, Xiao Xuanmo received the news that his mother had hanged herself, but he remained unmoved and behaved quite cold-bloodedly.
It was not until late at night that he finally buried his head in his bed and cried bitterly, but still did not dare to make a sound.
From then on, he really became a sword in the hands of the Qin Emperor, and he helped the Qin Emperor to eliminate the so-called "rebels" many times. However, his ruthless methods also caused people all over the world to curse him, and countless knights in the world even called him the Qin Emperor's running dog.
It is worth mentioning that after the death of the general, the invasion of foreign tribes came to an abrupt end. The Emperor of Qin even appointed Xiao Xuanmo as the supervisor to go to the border to build fortifications.
In just a few years, Xiao Xuanmo spent a lot of money and effort to build a huge defensive wall that stretched for thousands of miles for the Qin Dynasty, like a long dragon lying dormant in the earth.
At the same time, during these years, the Qin Emperor was greedy for comfort and pleasure, and at the same time superstitious about the method of immortality, which led to widespread resentment among the people in the country.
For a time, many anti-Qin heroes emerged, but they were all suppressed by Xiao Xuanmo.
Several years passed, and foreign tribes invaded again with such ferocity that even the huge walls could not stop them. The Qin Emperor ordered little Xuanmo to defend the border to the death.
In the same year, the Emperor of Qin died of illness while on tour, and the crown prince succeeded to the throne.
The first thing the new emperor of Daqin did after taking office was to convict Xiao Xuanmo of treason. He wanted to raid his house and arrest his family. However, he discovered that Xiao Xuanmo's family had already left the house.
Not long after, a great victory was won at the border. Xiao Xuanmo raised the banner of justice and announced to the world the evidence that the Qin royal family colluded with foreign races to murder loyal officials. From then on, the grand Qin mutiny began!
During this period, the families of the heroes who had been massacred by Xiao Xuanmo showed up one after another to support Xiao Xuanmo's uprising. Only then did people realize that Xiao Xuanmo had not really massacred the nine clans, but had secretly hidden the families of those heroes under unknown names, just for this moment!
In just two years, the Qin army was defeated. Armies of righteous men emerged in large numbers from the country. Xiao Xuanmo's team was the most brave. They were the first to break through the capital, chopped off the Qin emperor with their own hands, and massacred the entire royal family, ending the rule of the Qin Dynasty!
Just when everyone thought that Xiao Xuanmo would become emperor, he gave up everything and left alone.
After that, the Qin Dynasty was occupied by the Han Dynasty, and the world gradually evolved into a prosperous era.
Not long after leaving the imperial capital, Xiao Xuanmo was plotted against by a group of his confidants and eventually died at the hands of his own people.
Before he died, he asked his former confidants, "Why do you do this?"
"We have achieved success with you, but you can't give us what we want. How can we obey you?"
"Your prestige is too great, so only when you die can the Han Dynasty truly rest assured, and we can obtain sufficient wealth and glory from the Han Dynasty!"
"You weren't like this before... You used to speak up for the poor people and fight against the injustice in the world... Why?!"
"The past is the past, the present is the present, and people's hearts will change!"
The fifth generation, the sixth generation...
In the blink of an eye, Xuan Mo went through nine reincarnations, and finally woke up from the Tianlu Reincarnation Array with a painful face...
(The story is purely fictional, please don’t take it as history. I personally like the Qin Dynasty very much, and I can be considered a fan of the First Emperor)
……
I don’t know if you like this kind of short story. Actually, I really want to write each story completely, because each story represents different emotions. As I said, everything I write is about human nature, but this is an online novel after all, and I’m very sorry for delaying your writing for two chapters.
Although it's a bit watery, it is necessary to comprehend the artistic conception. You may wish to guess what kind of artistic conception and magical power Mo Fan will comprehend?
