Huan Palace.

King Huan is now facing many problems that make him inexplicably irritable.

On the one hand, the edict of the Son of Heaven naturally made him angry, but he could only complain.

More importantly, it is the case of Anguo.

At the beginning of the Central Plains War, Yu Anmin was the king in Anyang, he was self-reliant, and in order to protect himself, under the advice of the strategist Jiang Xing, he was the first to bow down to King Huan.

That is, the vassal state of King Huan.

Now, the imperial court has issued an edict from the Son of Heaven to remove Yu Anmin from the throne, and let him ask for his own guilt.

In this matter, Yu Anmin will inevitably come to King Huan for refuge and help, there is no doubt about it.

Before he came, King Huan also discussed this matter with a group of ministers.

A minister said: "Since Yu Anmin is the king, it is reasonable for the king to deal with this matter." ”

Some people also said: "But once this is the case, it will be a blatant rebellion, and what will follow will inevitably be a rebellious edict from the imperial court. ”

"If things get to that point, there will be no way out, and if Yu Anmin asks for the king again, it will not be a matter of title, but a matter of war."

What the minister said is not unreasonable, this kind of thing is very likely to happen.

After hearing this, King Huan frowned, and couldn't help but say: "In the past, the Son of Heaven, how could he care about this, but now when he comes to King Qin, it has worked!" It's hateful! ”

Qiu Rong pondered for a while, and said: "King, now that the problem of Ruyang and Dingzhou has not been solved by us and Liangguo, it is really unwise to offend the Son of Heaven at this time." ”

"And the two kings of Qin Liang, both warlike people, if Yu Anmin's matter is condemned as a rebellion, he will pull my Huan country into the water!"

"Moreover, Yu Anmin did set himself up as the king at the beginning, and it is not realistic to be the king of Anyang alone, and the king of the world, I am afraid that he will not be happy."

"Is the prime minister saying that the monarchs of all countries are actually dissatisfied?" King Huan asked in a condensed voice.

"yes." Qiu Rong said: "Just like the original King of Qin, even if the Son of Heaven conferred the title, he was almost not recognized, and he still had to fight a battle in Shanyu Pass before he had the road to kingship." ”

"The monarchs of the world, to recognize each other's identities, they need orthodoxy and their own strength."

He was right, if it weren't for the reason of Huan Guo, Yu Anmin would have been destroyed long ago!

At this time, the general trend of the world has been completed, after the destruction of Yan and Jin, it is already the hegemony of the Seven Kingdoms, if King Huan dares to wade into this troubled water, it is not a wise move.

Seeing him frowning and pondering, Qiu Rong said again: "Yu Anmin's King An has always been a hidden danger, a hidden danger that is not recognized by other countries, this time, the king might as well take this opportunity to let him abdicate, anyway, he should pay tribute every year, or he still has to pay tribute, whether it is a prince or not, it doesn't matter to us." ”

"En......" This is to the point, and after King Huan groaned, he nodded slowly.

It is obviously unrealistic to let him offend the imperial court for Yu Anmin's sake, with his corrupt and selfish character.

And after this court meeting, within two days, Yu Anmin really hurried over from Anyang and began to ask to see King Huan.

In the study of the palace, when he saw King Huan, he first knelt on the ground to salute, and then said sadly:

"O king, the Son of Heaven wants to remove my throne for no reason, this time, you must be the master for me......"

He is also the self-proclaimed King An, but in the face of King Huan, more like a pug facing his master, wagging his tail and begging for mercy.

Seeing this, King Huan frowned slightly and said, "You get up first." ”

"Yes, yes." Yu Anmin responded again and again, then got up and stood below, bending slightly.

What a king is this!

But he still wanted the title.

But the more this is the case, the more King Huan takes him to death, and looks down on him more and more.

"How do you want this king to rule for you?"

"This ......" Yu Anmin hesitated for a moment, and said: "The land under the jurisdiction of the little king is a vassal state of the king, and if the throne is withdrawn, the king's face will not look good." ”

When he mentioned this, he thought that King Huan would take care of it somewhat.

How do you know, but he shook his head slightly, and replied to the question: "Yu Anmin, this king asks you, how many An troops are there?" ”

"Eight...... About 80,000 ......" Yu Anmin returned truthfully.

"What about the land under the jurisdiction of Anguo?"

"A radius of more than three hundred and forty miles."

"With more than 300 miles of land and 80,000 troops, can you compete with the tiger and wolf army of the Qin State?" King Huan asked again.

"This, isn't there still the protection of the king?" Yu Anmin said hurriedly.

"Yes, this king can protect you, but what will follow, that is, the king of the world, you, will also be accused of rebellion, and at that time, the war of several countries will be a confrontation of millions of armies, even if this king wants to protect you again, I am afraid that he will be powerless." Huan Wang Zhengse said.

"But this ...... But this ......"

Yu Anmin's face was full of anxiety, and what else did he want to say.

King Kehuan had already interrupted him and said: "Listen to the advice of this king, abdicate, so as not to incur military disasters, which is not something that An Guo can afford." ”

As he spoke, he also sighed: "Alas, this king doesn't want to see you remove the throne, but the situation is forced, there is no way, don't worry, from now on, you will continue to be your Marquis of Anyang, and Huan Guo will always protect you." ”

When he said this, he made the family abdicate and said that he was sheltering others.

After hearing this, Yu Anmin scolded in his heart, but on the face, how dare he be presumptuous, he could only continue to be respectful with a shy face.

After leaving the study, his face became gloomy.

In the past, when he didn't sit on the throne, he didn't say anything, but now, it is undoubtedly unacceptable for him to take off his royal clothes and take off his crown.

Back in Anyang, Yu Anmin kept scolding King Huan in front of Jiang Xing, the dog-headed military advisor.

Seeing this, the latter grinned secretly and said: "Your Majesty, this matter has been said a long time ago, King Huan will definitely not dare to take care of it, alas, the Marquis of Anyang will be the Marquis of Anyang." ”

"But how can this king be willing!" Yu Anmin said with a glare.

Jiang Xing persuaded: "For the sake of the long term, the king can only temporarily abdicate now, avoid the current edge, as long as we still have a place to sexist, we can develop and grow." ”

The development he talked about was not to manage civil affairs and do a good job in military affairs, but to exploit the people and try every means to get money, and if there was money, he could recruit soldiers again.

But the combat power of these soldiers can be imagined.

Yu Anmin, on the other hand, slowed down for a while before taking a deep breath and asked gloomily, "How is the connection with the ghost clan?" ”

"The king can rest assured, everything is going according to schedule, the two sides are cooperating happily, and the next batch of salt and iron will be prepared soon......"

You must know that the ghost clan borders Anyang, and Xiao Yuan was a captain of Liucheng here.

In that era, the ghost clan did not have iron-smelting technology, and all the swords and iron tools needed to be built had to be purchased from the Central Plains.

But due to the alien invasion, this is a ban!

But Yu Anmin did not hesitate to sell illicit iron to foreign enemies for the sake of gold and silver!
