Xianyang is a new city, the Qin people moved the capital here less than a hundred years, with the increasing population, the urban area continued to expand, the earliest outer Guo was surrounded by the increasing number of houses and alleys, into the inner city wall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing that the territory of Xianyang and the Qin State is constantly expanding, the Qin kings are not willing to live in the small inner city, so they simply built some new palace annexes on the south bank of Weishui outside the city, under the work of the craftsmen captured from the six countries of Shandong, the rammed earth platform foundation is becoming higher and higher, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, the adobe is replaced by bricks and stones, the low house becomes the pillars of the vast building, looking from afar, the high platform hall is covered with ten miles, and the Jique is towering and soaring to the sky, which is solemn and luxurious.

Among them, the largest Zhangtai Palace is the administrative center of the Qin State, where the King of Qin lives all the year round, and the Ganquan Palace, which is a few miles away from it, is the palace of the Queen Mother.

Once upon a time, when the Empress Dowager Mi was in power, the song platform in the Ganquan Palace was warm, the spring was harmonious, and the people who flattered the Empress Dowager lined up in a long line. Legend has it that she also gave birth to two sons with Yiqu Jun here, and on their intimate couch, she killed Yiqu Jun with her own hands, cut off his head, and completely solved the trouble of Yiqu that had plagued the Qin State for two hundred years......

At that time, Ganquan Palace was also glorious, but now, with the fall of the Marquis, Qin Wangji completely controlled the country, and the Queen Mother had to give up managing state affairs and returned to Ganquan Palace.

The Qin people all know that after the marquis is over, the Queen Mother can no longer continue to use the King of Qin as a puppet, called recuperation in Ganquan Palace, but in fact it is house arrest, and since then, no one has seen the Empress Dowager Mi step out of Ganquan Palace.

With the loss of the Queen Mother, Ganquan Palace has also become a cold sleeve dance hall and a place of wind and rain.

Today's sky is gloomy, the clouds are very low, the surrounding atmosphere is as depressing and terrible as in the Ganquan Palace, there are black-clothed guards with swords outside the palace, and the palace maids in the palace are trembling from afar, and they dare not make a sound when walking, because on this day, Qin Wangji came to visit the Queen Mother......

In addition, there are two people outside Ganquan Palace, one standing and one kneeling, the person standing has an ugly face, holding a cane, walking with a limp, it seems that his legs and feet are not very good, it is Fan Ju, the prime minister of Great Qin. The kneeling man was naked in the cold weather, with some thornwood tied to his back, shivering in the autumn wind, but it was Wang Ji who had just returned from the Qi Kingdom.

"I'm afraid the Queen Mother is running out of time......"

Looking at the yellow leaves that slowly withered and withered in the autumn wind, Fan Ju sighed like this, he was sad on the surface, but he felt that this was a good thing in his heart, since he pacified the rebellion of Ji Jun and supported the succession of King Qin, Empress Dowager Mi and her brothers and sons have occupied the court of Qin for too long and too long. In Fan Ju's opinion, although this group of people has meritorious service to Qin, they have also done it, because of their selfish intentions, they have at least delayed the time for Great Qin to go east for ten years!

Now that the four nobles have been expelled, just wait for the Queen Mother to go to Huangquan, and the Qin State will truly enter the era of the monopoly of the Qin king.

It is also a new era for him to show his revenge!

But Fan Ju didn't dare to say these words to King Qin, although King Qin and the Queen Mother had many contradictions, and they were ruthless and ruthless when they seized power. But he could faintly see that the mother-son relationship between the two was still there-this may be the only remaining emotion of the King of Qin, and yes, only the ruthless Queen Mother could raise a tiger and wolf king.

After standing for a long time, Fan Ju was inevitably a little tired, and changed several postures, and finally, before nightfall, a chariot carried by eight people finally slowly came out of the Ganquan Palace, and a king in gorgeous clothes sat on it.

Qin Wangji is now in his fifties, but his body is as strong as a young man in his thirties. Even when he sat on his chariot, he still looked tall, with broad shoulders, muscular arms lying on the saber "Tai'a", his hair and beard meticulously combed, his eyes dark and deep, not angry and arrogant, at this moment, he was staring intently at the sky as gray as his hair, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"It's coming!" Fan Ju saw King Qin from afar, and hurriedly kicked Wang Ji, making him fall to the ground and plead guilty: "Great King, the minister Wang Ji has failed the king, has insulted the mission, and deserves death!" ”

Fan Ju also knelt down with a limp: "Qin's law, those who appoint others and do not do well, each will be guilty of his crimes." Improper recommendation by the minister should also be a capital crime! ”

The two of them bowed their heads to the ground, only to feel that King Qin's cold gaze swept over the back of their heads, which was meaningful.

After a long time, the king of Qin still did not let them get up, Wang Ji was so frightened that he was about to incontinence, his mouth was against the cold stone on the ground, his teeth were rattling, and at this time, the voice rang out.

"It is common for states to have no fixed diplomatic relations, if a diplomatic failure will kill the prime minister of the dynasty, I am afraid that my Qin State will have to change the prime minister once a month. Prime Minister, please. ”

Fan Ju was relieved, hurriedly got up with his cane, and chased after King Qin's steps, as for Wang Ji, who did not say a word about King Qin, he had to continue to kneel outside Ganquan Palace......

"King, this is what happened, this time Wang Ji envoy Qi, want to make an alliance between Qi and Qin with a long-distance and close attack strategy, and expel Chang'an Jun, the proton of Zhao State, the king of Qi has been moved, but it is expected that Yan State suddenly started a war against Zhao State, Chang'an Jun was also assassinated in Linzi, and also claimed that the assassin was sent by King Yan. The king of Qi suspected that Qin and Yan had jointly deceived Qi and wanted to deceive Qi and Zhao, but Wang Ji could not relieve his doubts, so he was sent back to China......"

Fan Ju trotted behind King Qin's steps, talking about what had happened as he ran.

King Qin didn't stop to wait for him, holding his sword and sneering: "Gift home? That's just that King Qi didn't dare to offend the Qin State too much. The prime minister's plan is a clever plan, but it's a pity that it is not a person, Wang Ji can't even do a good job of fox and fake tiger, which really disappoints the widow! ”

He sighed and said: "The widow really misses Mr. Zhang Yi when his father was king, if he is here, why worry about the strategy of making friends with Qi from afar?" ”

Fan Ju was a little embarrassed, he knew that this was King Qin's beating to remind him.

At this time, they had already walked to a small pavilion by the Weishui, Qin Wangji gave in and stopped, Fan Ju hurriedly came over to help, and said with a smile: "The king is right, although this Wang Ji has Xiaozhi, where can he compare to Zhang Zi?" However, this time it was also sudden, Yan Guo rashly attacked Zhao without consulting with Qin State, and Wang Ji was also caught off guard, resulting in the failure of the mission......"

"The prime minister doesn't have to excuse Wang Ji anymore, the widow knows that he is kind to you."

Qin Wangji seemed to be smiling, pointing to the palace pavilion and said: "It was here back then, the prime minister visited the widow, and said to the widow, 'Qin State has heard of the queen mother and the marquis, but not the king'." Since then, the prime minister has given advice to the widow, and your loyalty and ability have been remembered by the widow. The widow can spare Wang Ji's life, but Qin Law is Qin Law, losing his authority and cutting off his title is indispensable, and the prime minister must also reduce his salary. ”

"The minister and the king are willing to be punished!" Fan Ju was overjoyed and even said thank you.

Qin Wangji waved his hand and asked people to give him a seat, and after Fan Ju put away the injured lame leg, he asked him: "Speaking of which, did the prime minister find out why Yan suddenly went to war against Zhao?" ”

Fan Ju lowered his head: "Or because of the rebellion in Zhongshan in Zhao State, and seeing that Zhao State and my Qin State are evil to each other, and they have been facing each other for several months, King Yan feels that there is an opportunity, so he will take the Song people Rong Worm as a general to crusade against Zhao State......"

"What a joke." Qin Wangji was a little disdainful: "Yan is a weak country, and he dares to learn from Qin Xing's soldiers?" ”

He sat on the edge of the pavilion near the pond, holding fish food in his hand, and throwing it into the water, and the king of Yan said to him as if he had seen bait in this pond, and desperately swam to open its mouth in spite of the danger.

"When the widow was fifteen or sixteen years old, he was a hostage in the Yan Kingdom, and saw with his own eyes that the king of Yan Zhao was determined to forge ahead, recruiting talents, including Guo Kui and Zou Yan, Wu Youle Yi, Qin Kai, and Xin, Jun Ming and Chenxian, almost swallowing the Qi country and both. It's a pity that King Yan Zhao is so smart, but he gave birth to such a stupid son, King Yan Hui lost his father's business, and now this King Yan is also stupid! This time the Yan State attacked Zhao, not only ruined the plan of the widow to make friends with the Qin State, but also brought humiliation on itself, at this moment the Qi State and the Zhao State should discuss it, and they should join forces to attack Yan after the autumn? ”

Fan Ju said: "However, according to the Qin spies in Handan and Linzi, Qi and Zhao exchanged Xiangbang, Anping Juntian entered Zhao as the prime minister, and Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng entered Qi as the prime minister. ”

Qin Wangji shook his head and said: "If Qi and Zhao are together, the Yan State will be defeated, according to the strategy of distant friendship and close attack, since the widow cannot join Qi, in order to balance the Zhao State, he can only join Yan." The prime minister thinks that he should send troops to the east to attack Zhao in the name of saving Yan, and come to besiege Zhao to save Yan? ”

Fan Ju said cautiously: "Zhao Guo dares to attack Yan State in the north, and there must be preparations in the west, and the spies arranged by the minister in Taiyuan have heard that Zhao General Lian Po has arrived in Taiyuan." Now that winter is coming, the Qin army is attacking Zhao, and the soldiers are too far in the mountains, and they can't get anything cheap, so in Yichen's opinion, it's better not to save Yan than not to save it! ”

"Don't save it?" Qin Wangji was a little surprised, turned his head to look at Fan Ju, and asked, "If you don't save the Yan State, wouldn't it be more difficult for the Zhao State to defeat the Yan State, expand the territory, stabilize the rear, and form an alliance with Qi?" ”

Although Qin Wangji, who has achieved "the world is not the first to go to the west", does not take Zhao Guo in his eyes, but he also does not want the enemy to become strong again, the Zhao State when King Zhao Wuling was the king, but he was very headache, and King Huiwen is also the only enemy opponent of Qin Wangji since the end of King Qi Min and Meng Weijun......

Of course, none of them have ever lived him, and they have been the Ji of the King of Qin for forty-two years, and they are proud of the seven heroes in terms of longevity.

Fan Ju analyzed: "Zhao Qiang is afraid of Qi, as long as this battle is over, the alliance of Qi and Zhao will naturally end, and then the minister will send envoys to threaten Qi State, even if Qi State cannot be allowed to surrender to Qin, Qi can also be neutralized!" ”

"As for the Yan State, although the Yan army is weak, but the minister heard that the Yan general Rong Yan is also a person who is good at using soldiers, and if the Zhao State wants to defeat Yan, I'm afraid it will not be so easy. It is better for the king to send an envoy to agree to Yan Guo's request for help, so that Yan Wang can rely on the support of Qin State to strengthen his heart to fight with Qi and Zhao, and let the war last for years. Once it is winter, the Zhao army and Qi army will be in the bitter cold land of Yan State, and they will inevitably suffer heavy losses, so that the Qin State will also free up their hands! ”

"Let Yan Guo drag Zhao and Qi, and let Qin Guo free his hand, what does the prime minister want to do?"

Qin Wangji became interested, this is the reason why he was able to tolerate Fan Ju, this is indeed a rare wise man, full of clever plans, and the angle of looking at the situation is very tricky, which is unexpected.

Fan Ju bowed down, and when he looked up, his eyes flashed with a sly gaze.

"The Qin State can take the opportunity to attack Han!"

PS: Clarify a couple of issues

1. The location of Qin Ganquan Palace and Han Ganquan Palace is different.

2. Yu Xin is Yu Qing.

3. Li Bo is not Li Mu

4. The prototype of Zhao Mu is the historical Zhao Xiaocheng Wang's favorite minister Jian Xinjun, the name is made up by me, and Zhao Mu in the Xun Qin Ji has no half-penny relationship, this book is based on historical documents to deduce, there will be no characters in other novels, if the name is the same, it is pure coincidence, because I haven't even finished watching the Xun Qin Ji TV series in July, I don't know what characters are in it.
