Zhao Jun's support for Gongziji is different from supporting Gongziji. Because of the throne of Yan Wang, Yan first caused the rebellion of the son, and then the Qi and Zhongshan kingdoms were defeated by the Yan Kingdom. Zhao supported Gongzizhi to return to China to compete for the throne, and tens of thousands of soldiers of Zhao State could enter the territory of Yan State and help Gongzizhi repel Qi and Zhongshan. However, the Qin State was an internal turmoil between Qin Huihou and Mi Bazi who competed for power and profit.

The Qin State did not suffer from foreign invasion, and the combined forces of Yan and Zhao were ready to enter the Qin land, which was equivalent to invading other countries.

Le Yi naturally knew that nearly 10,000 soldiers carrying weapons would break into it without the permission of other countries. As a result, Le Yi stationed the Yan and Zhao escort armies on the border of Zhao and Qin. He also ordered a small number of Zhao soldiers to enter the Qin State in disguise. Gongziji returned to the Qin State and successfully evaded the Qin army's interrogation. Along the way, everyone was in danger and arrived outside Xianyang City.

Gongziji stared at the tall and mighty Xianyang City. He has been away from this city for many years. In this way, looking at the city that gave birth to him and raised him, Gongzi Ji had already burst into tears.

On that day, Gongziji left Xianyang from here and traveled thousands of miles to Jicheng alone. When he went, he went to Yan Country as a proton. Yan is a strange country to him. He didn't know what fate awaited him. He didn't even know when he would be able to return to the Qin Kingdom. A few years later, he traveled thousands of miles from Jicheng to Xianyang. Gongziji did not expect that he would one day become the king of Qin.

Gongziji looked at Xianyang City, left sad tears, and groaned: "Qin Guo, I'm back." ”

Le Yi was afraid that Gongzi Ji would reveal his whereabouts, so he persuaded: "Gongzi has not yet been able to become the king of Qin, and we are also in danger. Childe's words and deeds, so as not to expose his whereabouts. ”

"General Le is right, it's me who was happy too early." When Gongziji heard this, he hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "I can't control my mood when I see Xianyang." ”

Le Yi didn't mean to blame Gongziji, and he understood his mood very well, "A few years ago, Gongzi left here. A few years later, Childe is back here. Anyone who sees their long-lost home will be full of sadness like Childe. For the sake of safety, Childe should not be sad and reveal his identity. ”

Along the way, Gongziji trusted Le Yi a lot, felt a little melancholy, and bowed and said, "I will listen to General Le's arrangements." ”

Le Yi saw that Gongzi had the spirit of a king, and returned the salute: "If the words are offensive, please forgive Gongzi." ”

Gongzi Ji cleaned up his sad mood, "General Le is serious. ”

Ji Wuwang asked, "General Le, there is Xianyang in front." Next, what do we do. ”

Le Yi looked at Xianyang City, and then said four words, "Be careful." ”

Entering Xianyang, Le Yi did not go to the official post of Qin State, but chose the most densely populated and prosperous street market in Xianyang to stay. Of course, the two hundred soldiers of the Zhao State hidden in the Qin State also gathered in this courtyard. Le Yi settled Gongzi Ji and walked out of the house. Le Yi recruited two attendants and ordered them to spread the news of Gongziji's return to Qin with great fanfare.

The two attendants took the order and left.

Ji Wuwang asked, "Along the way, General Le told us to hide our whereabouts. Why is General Le so high-profile now. ”

Le Yi replied: "The news of Gongziji's return to China spreads, and the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State will learn what will happen. ”

Ji Wuwang blurted out, "They will come to welcome Gongzi Ji back." ”

"Not bad." Le Yi looked up at the sky of the Qin State, "Gongzi Ji returned to China, and the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State found out." They didn't dare to plot against their son. Someone dares to kill the son of the first king, and there will be another big storm in the Qin country. ”

"General Le is saying that Xianyang is not safe." Ji Wuwang exclaimed: "This is Xianyang, who dares to be disrespectful to the son." ”

"Childe has not ascended to the throne for a day, and I dare not let my guard down for a day. We won't be safe from deep storms. ”

"We can send Gongzi directly to Xianyang Palace and hand it over to Mi Bazi."

"The blood of the royal family is cold. Gongziji was not recognized by the monarchs and ministers of Qin, and he could not sit on the throne of Qin. Le Yi looked in the direction of Xianyang Palace, "We have to wait for an opportunity." An opportunity that no one can shake and Gongzi Ji is king. ”

As Le Yi expected, Wei Ran was the first to get the news of Gongziji's return to China. Enter the palace as soon as possible and discuss with Mi Bazi. At this sensitive time, Gongziji returned to the Qin State with the help of Yan Zhao's power. The purpose of Gongziji's return is self-evident. After Mi Bazi defeated Qin Hui through hardships and dangers, she defeated those who opposed her. How can you watch the fruits of victory being plucked by others?

Mi Bazi also ignored Wei Ran's opposition, and asked Bai Qi to lead a thousand Qin soldiers and soldiers to surround Gongziji.

Bai Qi led a thousand Qin Rui soldiers to surround Gongziji, which was a double-edged sword for Le Yi and others, both an opportunity and a challenge. If Le Yi fails to deal with it, he, Gongziji and others will also be buried here. If Le Yi succeeds, the movement tonight will be known to everyone, and Gongziji's road to becoming the king of Qin will be unimpeded.

As the Qin army retreated, Le Yi also withdrew his long sword from its scabbard. This night, it was finally calm.

Ji has no hope of seeing Le Yi deal with the Qin army, and he can deal with the complex situation calmly, calmly, and has the style of a general. Ji Wuwang came out, stood next to Le Yi, took a breath of fresh air, and reminded: "General Le, the Qin army has withdrawn." ”

Gongziji regained his mind and made a national salute to Le Yi, "Thank you General Le for saving your life." ”

Le Yi replied: "This is my duty, and the son doesn't have to thank me." ”

Gongzi Ji thought that he would be very happy when he returned to the Qin Kingdom. At the moment, he was not happy at all. On the contrary, I miss the days when I lived in Yan Kingdom. A few tears slipped from the corners of Gongziji's eyes, "General Le, I don't want to be the King of Qin." ”

After this night, Gongzi Ji has changed a lot and grown a lot. He also understood why Yan Yihou didn't want him to return to Qin before leaving. It turned out that the blood of the royal family was really cold.

Ji had no hope of hearing this, had no idea, and looked at Le Yi with wide eyes.

Le Yi knew that this incident had hit Gongziji very hard, and it would also become Gongziji's heart knot. If Gongzi Ji wants to be the king of Qin, he will compete with his younger brother for the throne, and he will also offend his mother. Le Yi didn't know how to persuade him, and asked, "Has Childe figured it out?" ”

Childe nodded, "I've thought about it." ”

"Childe, the heavy rain has stopped." Le Yi looked at the other party's eyes, "After this night, no one will murder you." And no one is vying for the throne with you. ”

Gongziji couldn't help crying: "The heart of the royal family is cold. I don't want to compete with my brother or mother. ”

"I can understand Childe's feelings." Le Yi said gently: "If the prince chooses to return to the country and compete for the throne, there is no way out. If the prince is not the king of Qin, there will be no place for you in the world. Even though Gongzi is virtuous and does not take the initiative to compete for the throne, Gongzi is a threat to the King of Qin. They won't let Childe live either. ”

Gongzi Ji thought for a moment and asked, "Is there no other way?" ”

Le Yi shook his head and replied: "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." Although Duke Wen of Jin had no intention of competing for the throne, he had also been exiled from other countries for more than ten years. Does Childe also want to kill the princes? There were no loyal protectors around Gongzi, and there were no princes who dared to accept Gongzi as enemies of the Qin State. Childe is a smart person, do you think you have other options? ”

"General Le, don't say it." Childe's mind was confused, "I need to be quiet." ”

Ji Wuwang watched Gongziji leave in despair, and asked, "General Le, Gongzi is unwilling to be the King of Qin." Our efforts will be in vain. General Le has any good way to persuade the son. ”

Le Yi let out a long breath, "General Ji doesn't have to worry, Gongzi will become the king of Qin." Childe has a hurdle in his heart, and if he walks over, he will be fine. ”

Ji Wuwang questioned: "General Le is somewhat sure. ”

"Childe is a dragon among men, not a thing in the pool. He yearns for the great cause of his father and brother, takes the strengthening of the Qin State as his own responsibility, and is even more proud of his fact that he is a descendant of the Zhao family. Le Yi said solemnly: "He will become the king of Qin." ”

……

The primogeniture inheritance system made the eighth son of Mi depressed. Mi Bazi never thought that the envoys of the six countries would reach an agreement on this issue. Mi Bazi was choked by the envoys of the princes, and he didn't like it in his heart. At this time, a eunuch muttered something in Mi Bazi's ear. Mi Bazi handed over the banquet to Wei Ran to be responsible, found an excuse for himself, and left in a huff.

Mi Bazi scolded: "These guys dare to meddle in Qin's internal affairs. Someday, I will take back the shame I have suffered today, along with the profits. ”

Seeing that Mi Bazi was angry, Bai Qi hurriedly said: "Minister, see the Queen Mother." ”

When Mi Bazi heard the words Queen Mother, he felt a little better, and quickly recovered his demeanor and asked, "Bai Qi, how is it to explain your affairs." ”

Bai Qi pleaded guilty and said: "The minister is incompetent. ”

Mi Bazi's face sank, "You led a thousand Great Qin Ruishi, but you couldn't help the Zhao people." ”

"It's not incompetence." Qi Rong walked out from behind the pillar, "I stopped him. ”

Mi Bazi saw Mi Rong and said, "Brother Rong, you have been back for a long time." ”

"If I don't come back in time, something will happen to the Qin State." Qi Rong took a few steps forward and stopped at a distance of five steps from Qi Bazi, "Sister, let Bai Qi lead the troops to besiege Gongzi Ji and kill Yan and Zhao escort the messengers." Aren't you afraid of war with two countries? ”

Mi Bazi glanced at Bai Qi and asked, "Bai Qi told you everything, and I have nothing to say." ”

"It's not about nothing." Mi Rong knew her sister's methods, so she couldn't help but be angry, "I joined forces with King Yiqu to attack Yongcheng. I received a flying pigeon letter from General Wei. In order to stop this disaster, I had to hurry back. Fortunately, at the critical moment, I caught up and stopped the killing. ”

Seeing that it wasn't about Bai Qi, and he didn't want anyone to hear the conversation between their sister and brother, Mi Bazi waved his hand and said, "Bai Qi, you have worked hard." Step aside! ”

Bai Qi bowed and exited the main hall.

"Stand down, too." Mi Bazi sent back the palace maids and guards around him.

At this time, on the empty hall, there were only two people, Mi Bazi and Mi Rong.

"Brother Rong, sit down!" Mi Bazi walked towards the main seat, and said in an unhappy tone: "When Brother Rong came back and entered the palace in a military costume, did he come to Xingshi to ask for guilt?" ”

"It took us three years to defeat the naysayers." Mi Bazi turned around and sat on the main seat, his eyes showing a cold murderous aura, "Zhao Jun interfered in Qin's internal affairs. Brother Rong, how can the country we have worked so hard to be picked up by Zhao Jun. These people and the old witch are all people who oppose us, don't they deserve to die? ”

"We are fighting with Empress Hui, and this is an internal matter. But if we kill Yan and Zhao escorting the envoys, it is equivalent to starting a war with Yan and Zhao. The Qin State was in turmoil, and the people's hearts did not return. Once the war starts, we will not be able to get anything to gain. My sister doesn't want to be ruined in a hurry! ”

Mi Bazi spread his hands and shouted, "Fight, fight." How could the mere Zhao State have no choice but to win the Qin State. ”

"Today's Qin is not the Qin of the past. Today's Zhao is not the Zhao of the past. A loud voice came from outside the hall. Wei Ran walked in from outside the hall and continued, "My brother once told my sister here. The State of Zhao has the intention of interfering in the internal affairs of Qin, and we are not capable of fighting the State of Zhao. My sister also saw that the envoys of the princes unanimously advocated the primogeniture inheritance system, just to stabilize the country and reduce disputes. The primogeniture system is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and if we break it, the princes of the world will crusade against the Qin State. Today, there are still many people in the Qin State who oppose us. Add to that the power of the alliance of the princes, and we are no match for them. ”

"This is the path that Zhao Jun chose for us, how can I accept it." Mi Bazi shouted angrily: "These people who oppose us deserve to die. ”

"Sister doesn't hate Zhao Jun. Instead, he hates Ji'er's return to the country, and he will take away Fu'er's throne. Mi Rong interjected: "Fu'er is my sister's son, isn't Ji'er my sister's son." My sister likes Fu'er, so I'm going to kill Ji'er. Ji'er, I've seen him, he's a virtuous man. It wasn't a bad thing for Daqin to hand it over to him. If I hadn't stopped it, Ji'er would have died in the chaos. In the second half of my sister's life, she will also be full of remorse. ”

"My sister said that Ji'er is a sage. If it's not a sage, it's useless. I didn't expect my sister to kill Ji'er. Sister, Ji'er is the first child you conceived and gave birth to in October. Wei Ran also made a voice of grievance, "For the sake of Fu'er, does my sister have to give up Ji'er." What a sin there is in Ji'er. ”

"Sister, what is the original purpose of our struggle for the throne?" Qi Rong answered: "We are not just for the sake of being reunited as a family, and we are not enduring the pain of separation. We don't do all this so that we can take control of our own destiny. For the sake of the throne, the princes disregarded brotherhood and fought against each other. The monarchs and ministers of the Qin State supported us, didn't they see that the princes were warm and cold for the sake of the throne, unscrupulous means, regardless of brotherly love? Aren't we able to beat them because we have a human touch? Could it be that my sister's heart and blood are also the same as those of the princes, and they have become cold for the sake of the throne. ”

Wei Ran said again: "I know that my sister likes Fu'er and doesn't like Ji'er. But we can't give up Ji'er for the sake of Fu'er. ”

Seeing that her two younger brothers were helping Ji'er speak, Mi Bazi blamed her for being ruthless, and asked coldly: "We promised to support Fu'er as the king of Qin." Am I doing this to fulfill my promise that day? ”

"We support Fu'er, that's because Ji'er is far away in Yanguo. Now that Ji'er is back, according to the etiquette system, Ji'er is the eldest son of his sister, and it is more suitable for him to become the king of Qin. Wei Ran didn't care about Mi Bazi's mood fluctuations, and said: "Fu'er is the king of Qin, and the people of the world will not accept it." It will also become the beginning of the turmoil in the Qin State. Today we have won the Emye, and perhaps tomorrow there will be new opponents. ”

"Mother, I agree with the two uncles." Gongzi Fu and Gongzi Kui stepped into the hall side by side. Gongzi Fu came to the front of the hall and bowed to Mi Bazi, Wei Ran, and Mi Rong, "Please mother take my brother as the king." ”

Mi Bazi didn't expect Fu'er to take the initiative to give up the throne, and asked, "Fu'er, do you know what you're talking about." ”

"Fu'er naturally knows." Gongzi Fu's eyes showed no regrets, "Brother Kui took the initiative to withdraw from the throne because I am an elder brother." Brother Ji came back from Yan Kingdom, and the child should also give way. My uncle is right, if I inherit the throne, the world will not accept it. Brother Ji, Brother Kui and I are biological brothers, how can we kill each other. According to the etiquette system, it is more appropriate for Brother Ji to succeed to the throne. ”

Gongzi Kui also said: "Mother, Yan and Zhao support Brother Ji, if we refuse, it is equivalent to starting a war with Yan and Zhao." ”

Gongzi Fu said again: "Mother sent soldiers to surround my brother's residence, and it has caused a storm in the city. The news of Brother Ji's return to China will also spread in Xianyang tomorrow. The eyes of the princes and envoys of the Qin State will watch our every move. My mother insisted on making me the king, and if the monarchs of Qin refused to accept it, the princes of the world would also disobey me. ”

When Wei Ran and Mi Rong heard this, they said in unison: "Fu'er and Kui'er are really people who understand righteousness. ”

"Good. I promised to make Ji'er king. For the sake of the overall situation, she was not insisting on her own opinions, and had to choose to compromise with the princes, but looking at Gongzi Fu and Gongzi Kui's cheeks, her heart was also full of guilt and said: "Fu'er, Kui'er, mother has wronged you." Fu'er took the initiative to give up the throne, and her mother swore that she would make you a more honorable person than King Qin. ”
