Chapter 252: Undercurrent
Just when the three monarchs and ministers of Qin were discussing countermeasures, the envoys of the five countries who sent envoys to Qin were also not idle, and visited the ministers of Qin who were friendly with their own country, intending to let them contribute and expel Zhang Yi together.
It's just that the results are extremely poor.
When the minister of Qin heard that it was to deal with his father Zhang Yi, he immediately shook his head and refused.
Just kidding, Zhang Yi is the father of King Qin, not just Xiangguo, Zhang Yi and King Qin have a father-son relationship in addition to the relationship between monarchs and ministers!
No matter how close he is to King Qin, can he still be close to father and son?
Even if it succeeds in the end and Qin Wangdang expells Zhang Yi, then Qin Wangdang's reputation is damaged, who will take the blame?
In order to restore the reputation of the King of Qin, he will definitely kill the traitorous ministers who have entered the slander and come to wash the ground for the King of Qin.
If you don't kiss each other, the rafters that come out will definitely rot first.
Or wait and see...
Zhang Yi returned to the mansion, and Feng Xi, a doorman, immediately walked to Zhang Yi's side and reported: "Your Majesty, when you went to the palace to discuss matters, envoys from various countries visited the ministers of the DPRK and China one after another. โ
Zhang Yi was expressionless and asked, "Has there been any news coming out?" โ
Feng Xi nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, according to some ministers, the envoys of various countries have come to persuade the courtiers to come forward, together..."
Feng Xi didn't say anything, but Zhang Yi said lightly: "Is it the king who wrote to the king together and asked to expel me?" โ
Feng Xiying said: "Your Majesty, that's exactly the case. According to the news, I heard that the ministers all refused..."
"All of them refused!" Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this may not be!" Some people should have rejected it verbally and secretly agreed! โ
"The wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, the pile will come out of the shore, the flow will be turbulent, the line is higher than the people, and the people will not be it." I, Zhang Yi, have served as the prime minister of the Qin State for nearly twenty years, and I have recommended many people to the King of Qin, and I have also excluded a lot of people, and there are also many people who want to replace me, how can it be that all of them have rejected the proposal of the Five Kingdoms! โ
"It's just that now I'm a father, and I'm intimate, and no one comes out."
Feng Xi was speechless, silent for a while, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, speaking of this, the minister heard a message. โ
"What news."
"Your Majesty, the news says: The purpose of Chen Zhen's envoy to the Qin State this time is to take advantage of the new monarch of the Qin State to ascend the throne and return to the Qin court with the help of the power of the Chu State."
โยทยทยทโ Zhang Yi was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "This news is fake!" โ
In the past, he and Chen Zhen served as important ministers of Qin at the same time, and fought many times during the period, although he relied on the favor of the previous king, and finally won to take over as Xiangguo, but this does not mean that he defeated Chen Zhen.
Zhang Yi dug a pit for Chen Zhen in front of King Qin Huiwen many times, but each time Chen Zhen was able to fill in the pit on the spot, and took this opportunity to make the former king trust him more.
If it weren't for Chen Zhen's defection to the Chu State, I'm afraid his biggest opponent in the Qin State would be Chen Zhen.
Just now!
Zhang Yi is the father of Qin Wangdang, in the Qin State, Zhang Yi will be afraid of Chen Zhen?

A mansion in Xianyang City.
Xiang Shou saw the visit of Song Qing, the prime minister of Hu, and immediately saluted the etiquette of the juniors: "The younger generation Xiang Shou has seen the Exiang Xiang, Mr. came from Guangling thousands of miles away, and the cold house is full of brilliance, fortunately!" โ
Xiang Shou is a cousin with Qin Wangdang's younger brother Gongzi Ji, the Mi family was favored by Qin Huiwen King in the Qin Palace, and Xiang Shou also came to Qin when he was young to join his aunt Mi Shi, therefore, Xiang Shou is not only close to Gongzi Ji like a brother, but also very good with Qin Wangdang.
After Qin Wangdang ascended the throne, Xiang Shou also rose to the top and was highly trusted.
After the ceremony.
Xiang Shou looked at the Ejun in front of him curiously, and asked thoughtfully: "I don't know what Mr. has to do when he comes to the Qin State, but there is a problem with the Ejun's caravan, if it is useful to go down, I will definitely help in the next place." โ
Ejun was the first person on the Chu side to contact the Qin nobles of the Chu State, and both sides had their own needs. Ejun needs the support of the Qin State to facilitate trading, and the Mi family also needs the support of the Chu State, especially the support of the Chu people within the Qin State, and the two sides hit it off.
Therefore, Xiang Shou is very familiar with the Prime Minister of E, especially after he and others lost King Qin Huiwen, the biggest backer of the Qin State, and they need the support of the Chu State.
The strength of the State of Chu in the State of Qin is not small, and similarly, the strength of the State of Qin in the State of Chu is not small, which is a problem left over from history.
It is said that the State of Chu was attacked by the State of Wu and almost perished, but it was the State of Qin that made a move that made the State of Chu relieved. In order to repay the Qin State, the State of Chu married a woman and welcomed a woman, and the relationship was very close.
Then, the Wei State set its sights on the Qin State, which successively lost Hexi, Luoshui, and the lower reaches of Weishui, and almost lost the country.
At that time, the King of Qin remembered the State of Chu, which had also been almost destroyed by the State of Wu before, so the State of Qin took refuge in the State of Chu.
For the surrender of Qin, Chu is welcome, after all, Wei is strong, if Qin is destroyed, Chu is not afraid.
As a result, the two countries of Qin and Chu were closely linked, and the noble sons and daughters of Chu entered the Qin dynasty one after another and became important ministers of the Qin king.
At the same time, the state of Chu also continued to send troops to help the state of Qin, especially in the battle of the state of Wei intended to attack the capital of the state of Qin, the Qin army continued to retreat, it was the king of Chu Xuan who mobilized the main force of the Chu army, through the Danshui too little Xi Pass (Wuguan), came to Weinan to confront the Wei army, after a hard battle, the Chu army defeated the Wei army, and knocked out the hand of death that the Wei state stretched out to the Qin state, which solved the problem of the death of the Qin state.
After that, the two countries of Qin and Chu became closer until, until Shang Ying arrived in Qin.
(The strength of the Chu line in the Qin State has always been strong, not only before, but also now, even until the fall of the Qin Dynasty...) ๏ผ
Getting back to the point, hearing Xiang Shou's inquiry, Song Qing shook his head and said: "No, when I came to Qin State, it was not that there was a problem with Ejun's business in Qin State, but that the king heard that King Qin had died, and he was worried that you would be in trouble, so he specially sent me to Xianyang to ask if you were in trouble and if you needed your help." If you are in trouble, the monarch is willing to mobilize the influence in Qin and do his best to help you stabilize your current position in the turmoil of the new monarch's accession to the throne! โ
Xiang Shou Wenyan said with a little gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, but King Qin and Gongzi Ji have a very good relationship, and I can still say something in front of King Qin, King Qin treats me well, and there is no trouble for the time being." If there is a place that needs to bother Ejun in the future, I will definitely ask Ejun to help. โ
"Okay, since that's the case, I can also repay Ejun with confidence." Saying that, Song Qing seemed to remember something, and hesitated: "I heard that Wei Ran has now been promoted to the rank of Wuguan guard, is there such a thing?" โ
Xiang Shou showed joy and said happily: "That's right, although the first king has passed away, the trust of King Qin in his uncle has not weakened in the slightest, and after he ascended the throne, he not only ordered his uncle to continue to serve as a military guard, but also promoted his uncle to two levels of knighthood to show his favor." โ
"Good! Okay..." Song Qing said, with a tangled look on his face, and asked thoughtfully: "I don't know if Wei Ran was promoted to Wuguan guard last time, was this the intention of the King of Qin himself, or was he recommended?" โ
