Qin State, Xianyang Palace!

Ying Zheng and the ministers discussed the matter of Yan Guo's land sacrifice in the main hall!

Yingzheng's eyes on the throne were sharp, he glanced at the ministers in the hall, and his majestic voice sounded: "Do you think Yan Guo is really seeking peace?"

When the minister in the palace heard this, although he thought he had guesses, no one had gotten up to reply, Guan Zhong saw that no one answered, and scolded a group of old foxes in his heart, so he had to get up and reply: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, the land of Yan State is to save the land of Yan State, which is a strategy to survive Yan State, and then Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms in order to stop the war and Yong'an the world, and should be cut down in the name of the king. If Yan Guo cheats, our army will be famous. ”

Li Si also arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, what Shoufu said is extremely true, my Great Qin will go away with the power of destroying Zhao, how can Yan Guo not be afraid, the minister guesses that this time Yan Guo may still have the intention of surrendering." The minister suggested that before Qin Yan had properly discussed, the army would not move, neither attacking nor retreating. , one is to prevent it from playing tricks, and the other is to send troops to attack Yan at any time. The third is to put pressure on Yan Guo to take the initiative to surrender. ”

Of course, Ying Zheng knew the purpose of Jing Ke's entry into Qin this time, and all of this was indispensable to his encouragement, Qin's destruction of Han was the Korean sending Han Fei to try to disturb Qin with politics. Attacking Zhao, Qin and Zhao's vendetta, the people of the world have nothing to say, if there is no reason, sending troops to attack Yan again, it is not justifiable, and it will be spurned by the people of the world, although he does not care, but it will make the people of the world more unbearable in their views of the Qin State, and it will be more difficult for the people of the Six Kingdoms to recognize the identity of the Qin people in the future, so he needs a reasonable excuse.

Now, this excuse was personally sent to Xianyang Palace by Yan Guo, how could he live up to Yan Guo's kindness.

Ying Zheng's expression remained unchanged, he glanced at the ministers, and said, "What you said is reasonable, does that minister still have opinions?"

Shang Ying, who was sitting in the cabinet seat, arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, Yan Guo's dedication of land and suing for peace is only the first step, and there will definitely be follow-up plans to follow up, so you must guard against it." ”

Some ministers also felt reasonable, nodded their heads in agreement, and after another discussion, Yingzheng ordered: "The Military Aircraft Pavilion listens to the order." ”

Wei Ran got up and said respectfully, "Here." ”

"Ordered Wang Jian to camp the army in place and stand by to attack Yan at any time. ”

Wei Ran's face was happy, he was afraid that Yingzheng also had the intention of withdrawing the army, but now it seemed that he had thought too much, and hurriedly said: "The Military Aircraft Pavilion obeys the king's order." ”

"The Ministry of Rites listens. ”

Jing Jian hurriedly got up and came out of the queue, and saluted: "Here." ”

Ying Zheng looked at Jing Jian and said solemnly: "The herald is weak, Yao is wrong, let them pay attention to the envoy of Yan State, if Yan State intends to form an alliance with Wei Qi and several countries, report it immediately." ”

"No. Jing Jian also knew that this matter was very important, and replied loudly.

Ying Zheng glanced at the ministers, and said: "Yan State is a big country, this time I sent an envoy here, what do you think my Qin State should do to it?"

Fan Li got up and said: "Your Majesty, this is the first time that the six countries of Shandong have sent envoys since your ascension to the throne. ”

"If the Yan State surrenders, it will be a model for Shandong, and my Qin State has long had the prestige of a great power. Wei Yu also said loudly.

"Righteousness is also ......"

"Seconded ......"

This matter was agreed, and Ying Zheng immediately ordered: "The Ministry of Rites is in charge of all forms of etiquette, the Ministry of War is responsible for inspecting the thieves of the Qin State, and the Xianyang Order is responsible for deploying the guards of the royal city and opening the way for the Yan envoys." ”

Jing Jian, Sima Terrier, and Xianyang Ling immediately went out to receive the order.

After getting off the small court, everyone went out of the side hall, Guan Zhongxing walked beside Zhuge Liang, and asked with some doubts: "Such a big thing, why didn't the mansion master say a word just now?"

Zhuge Liang arched his hand and said: "All colleagues have finished speaking, Kong Ming has nothing to add, so he didn't play again." ”

After saying a salute, he walked into the crowd, Guan Zhong stood in place, always feeling that Zhuge Liang was a little wrong, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, maybe he thought too much, no longer thought about it, and stepped forward to follow.

It's March in a blink of an eye, Jing Ke's envoy convoy, walking through the old land of Zhao, all you see is the scene of the people talking and laughing and busy with spring ploughing, children playing in the fields, the old people sending tea and water, and women and children sending food to them these Yan people, Jing Ke sighed, it has only been a few months, the hearts of the Zhao people have returned to Qin, a few years ago he traveled to the Zhao country, the people of Zhao mentioned the Qin people, the hatred that can't wait to be alive, he still remembers it vividly. But what he sees and hears now makes him feel like a world away.

He couldn't help but wonder if his trip was right or wrong.

When Jing Ke entered the Hangu Pass, passed by the Guanzhong Plain, heard the sound of banging, lifted the curtain and looked, there were more than a dozen ploughs in the field, the people of Qin sat on the side talking and laughing, one was tired, and the other changed to continue plowing.

Jing Ke knew that this was the miraculous organ ploughing of the Six Kingdoms, even if he Jing Ke didn't know how to farm, but he also knew that if he only relied on manpower and oxen to pull the plow, it would take two hours for one person and one ox to plow the land. Thinking of this, Jing Ke broke out in a cold sweat, although he didn't know how much grain Qin State could produce in a year, he knew that it was definitely beyond his imagination.

The strength of the army of Qin, no one in the world knows, if you add a steady stream of food, the four kingdoms of Yan and Wei are in danger.

Jing Ke's enthusiasm returned to his heart. If the king of Qin is tyrannical and murderous, if he is allowed to continue to be the king, will the people of the world still live in misery? It's all for the sake of this world, so that the people will be saved from disasters, and they will not regret even if they are afraid of life and death.

Jing Ke closed his eyes, no longer looking at the scenes that shook his determination, nor listening to the lively welcome, until the carriage drove into Xianyang and checked into the building.

When the envoy of Yan State arrived, it was natural that there would be a banquet to receive the wind and wash the dust, and Guan Zhong, the first assistant of Qin State, personally came to invite Jing Ke, but Jing Ke politely declined, and he never went out again.

The two of them left the hall, and the Shangshu Jingjian of the Ministry of Rites was worried that Guan Zhong would not be able to hang on to his face, so he had a grudge against Yan Envoy, and said busily: "Yan Envoy has traveled a long distance, and the carriage and horses are tired, so it is reasonable that he cannot go to the banquet." ”

Guan Zhong glanced at him, then turned his head to look at the state guesthouse, "How can the old man be such a small person, the old man came to represent the gift of my Great Qin, if he doesn't go, it is the gift of the Yan Kingdom, what does the old man do." Later, he said with some worry, "This person is ominous!"

Jing Jian was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What does Shoufu mean?"

The two got on the frame one after another, and Guan Zhong said solemnly: "Jing, the grass opens and sees the knife, the punishment is a great evil, this person is ominous." ”

Jing Jian thought that Guan Zhong still had a grudge against Jing Ke, so he said so, and he didn't want to say more, for fear of touching Guan Zhong's brows.

Jing Jian sent Guan Zhong back to Guan Mansion, to enter the palace to report to the King of Qin about the reception of the envoy of Yan and other matters, when he left, Guan Zhong did not forget to let him remind Queen Qin that the Japanese Dynasty would be more vigilant, Jing Jian only then understood that Guan Zhong really felt that Jing Ke was ominous, not angry, he sincerely agreed.

Jing Jian just arrived at the Xianyang Palace study, Zhao Gao greeted him, invited him into the palace, after a salute, he reported the reception, Ying Zheng praised him, this matter was reported, Jing Jian hurriedly said: "The king, Lord Shoufu thinks that Jing Ke is unknown, let the minister ask the king to be more vigilant in the future." ”

Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slip, smiled indifferently, and said, "Don't you think that Jing Ke is an assassin?"

Jing Jian also said solemnly: "Although it is impossible, it has to be guarded against." ”

Ying Zheng was pleased: "The two Qing families have a heart, and the loneliness will make people guard against one or two." ”

Seeing that Yingzheng attached importance to this matter, Jing Jian was relieved, and he had nothing to report, so he got up and said goodbye.

Ying Zheng looked at the figure of Jing Jian leaving, "Gu has not given the order to attack Yan for a long time, just waiting for another excuse, if it is rumored that Yan sent assassins into Qin to assassinate Yu Gu, then my Great Qin ministers will work together, and the Great Qin soldiers will share the same hatred of the enemy, on the other hand, Yan Guo, the whole country will panic, and no country will dare to save it." In the battle of exterminating Yan, the outcome has been decided. ’。

Ying Zheng retracted his gaze and continued to review the notebook, and there was only the sound of brushing in the study.
