"King Qin is dead." Zhao Junyong learned the news of the death of King Qin Huiwen, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried. The good news is that the strong generation of the Qin State is gone, and the Zhao State is missing a strong and fierce opponent. What worries me is that the war has just been decided, and the aftermath is not over. With the death of King Qin Hui, the world will be turbulent again, and the war will be endless.

When everyone in the Handan court heard this, they were also shocked. In recent years, the Qin State has changed abruptly. Break the three Jin Dynasty in the east, and deter Rongyi in the west. Sweep the righteous canal in the north and take the land of Bashu thousands of miles in the south. Qin and Chu fought each other, triggering the Second Central Plains War. In the battle of Danyang, the Qin State beheaded 80,000 soldiers of the Chu State, and the first battle shook the princes of the world.

The following year, the state of Qin faced the troops of the state of Chu to attack Qin. Although the Qin State resisted with all its strength, it was difficult to break it. With the joint efforts of the Qin State's virtuous ministers, good generals, strategists and others, the Qin State turned the danger into a disaster. The Qin State not only relieved the Lantian crisis, but also united Han and Wei to go north and defeat the Qi State on the edge of Pushui. Attacking the three Jins, striking the Xiongchu, breaking the strong Qi, the Qin State is majestic and invincible. The momentum continued to develop, and within a few years, the Qin State won the Central Plains and became the uncle, which was just around the corner.

Unexpectedly, the ambitious generation of Ming Jun of the Qin State passed away. Zhao Yong said sadly in his heart: "Life is unpredictable, and the world is impermanent. ”

After half a ring, Fei Yi asked, "Your Majesty, King Qin is gone." The world will not be peaceful. ”

Zhao Yong glanced at the national letter in his hand and asked, "Qin Wangsi is gone, how should we deal with it." ”

Tian Buli arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, we should take advantage of the fact that the Qin State is losing its lord and the new king is weak, and attack the Qin State to restore the country." ”

"The ancestor died, and the Qin State also participated in the funeral alliance initiated by the Wei State, waiting for an opportunity to seek my Zhao State. It's time for us to take revenge on this and let Prince Qin feel what it's like to be bullied. Gongzi Cheng also said: "King Qin is dead, this is a godsend." We might as well take this opportunity to send troops to the Qin State and recover the land west of the river to comfort the souls of the ancestors and soldiers. ”

Li Dui said loudly: "The minister seconded the proposal. ”

The crowd shouted, "Second." ”

Zhao Yong stared at the ministers in the hall for a long time and was silent.

Fei Yi saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." ”

Zhao Yong retracted his eyes, fell on him, raised his hand and said, "Speak." ”

"The king of Qin is dead, and the virtuous ministers, good generals, and strategists of the Qin State are all there. Wen has the likes of Winning Disease, Zhang Yi and others, and Wu has Gan Mao, Wei Zhang, and Sima Cuo. The Qin State did not cause a situation of cannibalism among the sons because of the death of Qin Wangsi. Presumably Qin Wangsi had already arranged the aftermath before he died. Qin Wangdang followed the steps step by step, which was enough to stabilize the Qin state. The power of the Qin king's swing was not enough to deter the courtiers. But he has been taught by the first king since he was a child, and he has been exposed to it by his ears and eyes. The minister heard that the king of Qin was nineteen years old and had fought on the battlefield many times. It is enough to speculate that Qin Wangdang is a person of courage and insight. I am afraid it will be very difficult for my country to send troops to attack the Qin State and recover the homeland. Moreover, Zhao Qingang concluded the alliance, and peace was less than a year old. We took advantage of the loss of the Qin State to send troops, and we lost our morality. No matter what the results are, the Qin State will take revenge and attack Zhao when it recovers. Qin Zhao has become a feud, how can we have a chance to compete with the princes of the Central Plains. ”

Zhao Jun shouted: "The Qin State has bullied me for a long time, won't we take revenge?" ”

Zhao Zhi echoed: "The disaster brought by the Qin State to the Zhao State is no less than that of the Wei State. The Qin State is dead, and the new monarch is young, so it is the best time to attack the Qin State and recover the homeland. As soon as these words came out, everyone seconded the proposal again, requesting that troops be sent to attack the Qin State.

Zhao Yong looked at the ministers who were asking for war, and then looked at the fat righteousness with a calm expression. Fei Yi fixed the god and said: "The Qin State attacked the Three Jins, attacked the Southern Chu, broke the strong Qi, and the national strength was strong." If you can't defeat the Qin State in one battle, you can't start a war with the Qin State rashly. In the Second Central Plains War, although we did not join the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Wei to attack Qi and Chu. But we supported Gongzi's job to restore the country and restrained the military strength of Qi. The state of Qi failed to succeed, and Chengpu was defeated by the princes. Who is the king of Qi, this defeat, he will not be reconciled, and he will not give up. We started a war with Qin, and Qi chose to help Qin attack me in order to avenge the shame of Yandi. There is strong Qi in the east and Xiongqin in the west. Zhao State is hostile to Qin and Qi, what will be the situation, the minister does not say, the king can also understand. ”

"The words of fat righteousness are also worrying about the widow. The Qin State lost its lord and was not in chaos. If our country could not defeat the Qin State in a war, the war would be at a stalemate. Qi also took the opportunity to attack me. Qi and Qin joined forces, and our country fell into a two-sided war. The situation we have managed to achieve will be in flames. Zhao Yong also knew in his heart that taking advantage of the mourning of the lord of another country and sending troops to attack would not only be unlucky, but would inspire greater hatred, "It will take time to attack Qin, and it will take even more time to fight for the world." ”

Gongzi Cheng understood the king's intentions, but he also asked unwillingly: "Qin State, doesn't the king plan to interfere?" ”

"If the widow doesn't interfere in the Qin State, the eastern princes will also be ready to move." Zhao Yongdao: "Danyang, Lantian, Chu was beaten the worst by Qin. If the outnumbered people don't attack Qin, the king of Chu will not be able to sit still. Let's wait and see what happens. ”

Li Dui said: "Your Majesty, if we don't attack the Qin State, we should also impose it on the Qin State and force Zhang Yi away." Zhang Yi is cunning and troublesome in the world, and it must be eliminated. ”

Tian Buli also said: "Your Majesty, we asked the King of Qin to expel Zhang Yi on the grounds that he was not good, so as to test the attitude of the Qin State. ”

Li Dui added: "Expelling Zhang Yi can be regarded as revenge for the rhinoceros." ”

Fei Yi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, expelling Zhang Yi and attacking the Qin State is one nature. We will not attack Qin, nor can we meddle in Qin's internal affairs. ”

Zhao Yong had a headache and said: "The King of Chu is such a wise person, and he has also been on Zhang Yi twice. Han Wangkang also suffered Zhang Yi's big loss. The two generations of Wei kings were also anxious about Zhang Yi and were helpless. Zhang Yi is a powerful character. The widow didn't want to provoke him yet. ”

Li Dui said: "Zhang Yi's stay in the Qin State is not a good thing for my Zhao State. ”

Fei Yi said: "Zhang Yi relied on the favor of Qin Wangsi and bullied the princes. Qin Wangsi fell, and Zhang Yi's life in Qin would not be easy. Zhang Yi offended too many people. We do not put pressure on the Qin State to expel Zhang Yi. The princes who have suffered losses will also unite to expel Zhang Yi. ”

"Zhang Yi not only bullied the princes, but also suppressed the good talents of the Qin State. There are many people who oppose Zhang Yi, and there are many widows. Zhao Yong's gaze looked out of the hall, "King Qin can't tolerate Gongsun Marting." How could Qin Wangdang tolerate Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi will also be the second Gongsun Marting. Gongsun Ying and Zhang Yi are all poor people! ”

……

Zhang Yi entered Chu with a mission and re-concluded an alliance with Chu. Zhang Yi originally wanted to indulge in fun in the Chu State for a few days. However, when he learned that Zuo Situ Qu Yuan had sent an envoy to return to the State of Qi, he was so frightened that he hurriedly submitted his resignation to the King of Chu and returned to China. The monarchs and ministers of the Chu State, Zhang Yi has his own way to deal with it. However, Qu Yuan's personality and him are in conflict with each other. His thoughts and tricks can be hidden from others, and he can't hide from Qu Yuan.

Three days before Qu Yuan returned to China, he left Chu in a hurry. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Chu State. Zhang Yi did not choose to enter Wuguan and return to Chu. Instead, he went north, borrowed the Wei State, and returned from Hangu Pass. After a day and night of non-stop travel, when he arrived at the city of Hangu Pass, Zhang Yi's heart hanging in mid-air was considered to have landed. This time in Chu, he escaped death. Life has ups and downs, and that's just it.

The attendant Zhang Yu said: "Qin Xiang, the situation is a little wrong. ”

"Did the Chu people chase after you?" Zhang Yi mistakenly thought that it was Chu Guo chasing after him, and hurriedly said: "Quick, enter the pass." ”

Zhang Yu drove the carriage towards Hangu Pass. A soldier of the Qin army, who was dressed up and dressed all over, shouted: "Who is coming?" ”

Zhang Yu said loudly: "Qin Xiang has returned to China. ”

The soldier snapped, "Please send the token." ”

Zhang Yi took out the token from his big sleeve and stretched it out of the curtain.

Seeing this, the soldier bowed down and said, "Welcome to the return of Prime Minister Qin." ”

Zhang Yi asked, "Can I enter the customs?" ”

The soldier hurriedly said, "Qin Xiang, please." ”

Zhang Yu sneered: "It has only been a month since Prime Minister Qin left the Qin State, and it has changed so much. Qin Xiang didn't have a token, so he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to enter Hangu Pass and return to Qin. ”

Ordinary merchants and ordinary people can enter Hangu Pass. Zhang Yitang Qin Xiangbang, returning to China this time, still needs tokens to enter the customs. If he didn't bring the token, I'm afraid he really wouldn't be able to enter Hangu Pass.

Seeing that Zhang Yi was silent, Zhang Yu thought that he was talking too seriously, and apologized: "Qin Xiang, I was talking nonsense just now, please don't take it to heart." ”

Zhang Yi said: "This place is less than ten days away from Qin, and in five days, I will return to Xianyang." ”

"Whoa." Zhang Yu asked, "Qin Xiang, along the way, why is everyone wearing murder costumes." I don't know if the dignitary died. ”

"Murder suit." Hearing this, Zhang Yi closed his eyes tightly and opened them suddenly, "Stop." ”

Zhang Yu suddenly stopped the car and said busily: "Qin Xiang, you are not injured!" ”

Zhang Yi didn't reply, jumped out of the carriage, and looked at everything around. Everywhere Zhang Yi's eyes looked, whether it was the people, merchants, soldiers, scholars, etc., everyone was wearing murderous clothes, and the sky and the earth were white. Zhang Yi didn't dare to think about the worst, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, stopped a soldier, and asked, "Who died?" ”

This soldier once served Zhang Yi, and said busily: "Prime Minister Qin, the king..."

Zhang Yi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, what's wrong." ”

"Wang Shangyong is gone."

"The king is dead." When Zhang Yi heard this, his expression trembled, and he hurriedly took a few steps back, if it weren't for Zhang Yu supporting him, it would be difficult to stabilize his footsteps, "Before I left the Qin State, the king was strong and could handle the government affairs. How... How could it be..."Zhang Yi felt a sweet smell rushing into her throat. Suddenly, a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu exclaimed: "Qin Xiang..."

Zhang Yi said with difficulty: "Go back to Xianyang." I'm going to see the king one last time. ”

Three days later, Zhang Yi returned to Xianyang and went straight to the palace.

Qin Wangdang was guarding the spirit of the first king, when he suddenly heard a sad voice entering the main hall, "Your Majesty, Zhang Yi is back." ”

After a while, Zhang Yi staggered into the main hall, "Your Majesty, Zhang Yi is back." ”

Zhang Yi bowed to the coffin of King Qin, saluted, kowtowed, and cried: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yi has returned from his mission." ”

When he heard this, he couldn't stop crying, "Qin Xiang, please take care." ”

Qin Wangdang looked at Zhang Yi and said, "Zhang Yi, you have worked hard to envoy Chu State. ”

Zhang Yi came back to his senses, knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted: "Minister, participate in the king." ”

Seeing this, Qin Wangdang raised his hand and said, "Zhang Yi, get up quickly." ”

Qin Wangdang called him Zhang Yi, not Qin Xiang. Zhang Yi seemed to have something in her heart, tried her best to restrain the bad emotions that appeared in her heart, and arched her hand: "Thank you, your majesty." ”

"Someone." Qin Wang Dang said: "Zhang Yi returned from the envoy Chu State, and he worked hard and sent him back to his house to rest." ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers dare not speak bitterly." Zhang Yi had no intention of leaving, "The first king died, and the princes of Shandong must have a plan." Your Majesty, we should devise a good strategy to deal with the princes, and not be careless. ”

King Qin raised his head and said: "The princes dare to destroy the funeral of their father, and the widow will never let them go." ”

"The princes are powerful, and the king must not touch them."

"Zhao Jun fifteenth, the funeral of the five countries is not afraid." King Qin said arrogantly: "The widow is only nineteen years old, isn't it as good as him." ”

"Your Majesty..."

"Zhang Yi, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the court. The widow has his own measure. King Qin's eyes showed a look of displeasure, "If he dares to plot against Qin, the widow will definitely resist it by force." ”

Zhang Yi took a good taste of the deep meaning behind what Qin Wangdang said, it seems that the court of Qin State will never have him again, and Qin State does not need him, it is useless to say more, "Your Majesty, the minister retires." ”

King Qin waved his hand, did not return the salute, and did not look at him more. Zhang Yi walked out of the hall in a lost place, feeling sad in her heart.

King Dang of Qin succeeded to the throne, relying on Ying Ji, Gan Mao and others, connecting the Qi State, winning over the Wei State, forming a good alliance with the Zhao State, and balancing the Chu State. When Zhou Tianzi and the vassal states heard of the death of the king of Qin, they sent envoys to the state of Qin to test the state of Qin in the name of mourning the king of Qin. The vassal states saw that the king of Qin was heroic and compelling, and he was not a weak lord, and the Qin state had already prepared in the country, so he did not dare to make any plans. According to the ritual system, the Son of Heaven was buried on the seventh day and in July; The princes were buried on the fifth day and in May; The doctor will be buried in three days, and he will be buried in three months or more than a month. After July, King Qin was buried in the royal tomb.

King Qin died, and the Seven Heroes of the Warring States entered a new era.

Qin Wu Wang Dang, Wei Xiang Wang Hei, Han Xiang Wang Cang, Qi Xuan Wang Tian Piyi, Chu Huai Wang Xiong Huai, Yan Zhao Wangzhi, Zhao Junyong (Zhao Wuling King), who can compete for hegemony among the princes, dominate the world, and become the real king in this troubled era. In this new era of the Warring States Period, they will perform a thrilling historical melody.
