Chapter Twenty-Eight: Meng Yi
"Your Majesty, the matter of the prince is too important, this is beyond our means." The matter of establishing a prince is a taboo topic, even the heavyweights in the royal family like Ying Liang don't want to be involved, Ying Liang thought about it.
"Yes, as long as the king is arbitrary." The other three clan elders groaned slightly.
"Nope." King Qin Zhao waved his right hand to stop them from talking, and said, "The matter of the prince is certainly a state affair, and it is also a matter of our royal family, as a clan elder, you can also talk about it." ”
The country of Qin is the country of the Ying clan, and the heavyweights of the clan such as Ying Liang also have the right to speak. Listen to them, it will be of great benefit to the prince.
"In that case, then I will say it." Ying Liang and the other three clan elders glanced at each other and reached agreement, and then said: "The prince is not at fault, but his body is too weak to support state affairs, if the state affairs are handed over to him, it will be a curse for Daqin." For this matter, I have long wanted to advise the monarch, and I should be cautious in this matter. ”
Speaking of this, Ying Liang paused slightly, glanced at King Qin Zhao, only to see him nod slightly, and then said: "It's just that the king also has concerns about this matter, and sent the third son to Bashu, this is the king is giving him a chance." The land of Bashu is a dangerous mountain and bad water, since Sima mistakenly collected Bashu, the land of Bashu not only failed to help Daqin, but caused a lot of trouble, so that Daqin did not have a headache. The king sent the third son to Bashu to test his talents, if he can cure Bashu, a land of dangerous mountains and rivers, what else can't be done? At that time, we will also rest assured that the Great Qin Jiangshan will be handed over to him. ”
"Hmm." King Qin Zhao nodded heavily and said, "That's what the widow thinks. The land of Bashu is too sinister. If the third child can govern Bashu well. will be able to govern Daqin well. The widow handed over the Qin country to him, and the widow was also relieved. It's just that the third child's temperament hasn't changed in the slightest over the years, which gives the widow a headache. ”
The advantage of Ying Xuan over Ying Zhu is that he is physically strong and has good energy. The problem is that he is short-tempered and irritable, and he will hit people if he is not good. If such a person becomes the monarch, it is not the blessing of the Qin State, and King Qin Zhao has to worry about it.
King Qin Zhao sent Ying Xuan to Bashu, a land of treacherous mountains and rivers, in addition to giving Ying Xuan a chance, he also had the intention of honing his temper.
"The third son is too short-tempered and too irritable, which is not the talent of the king." Ying Liang frowned and said, "If it is a comparison, I still tend to be the prince as the king." The third son followed the example of the previous king, and he was in strong stature. The power is infinite, if he is the king. It is likely that it is another martial king, this is by no means the blessing of Great Qin, please think twice. ”
The "first king" he said refers to King Wu of Qin.
King Wu of Qin was the eldest son of King Huiwen of Qin and the elder brother of King Zhao of Qin. King Wu of Qin is a world-famous warrior with infinite strength, and he is as famous as Meng Ben and Wu Huo. Although this person is the monarch, he is powerful, self-reliant, omnipotent, for this reason, he once said that he wanted to go to Luoyang to see Jiuding. As long as you can look at Jiuding, even if you die, it's worth it.
Later, he really led the Qin army to Luoyang and saw Jiuding. On a whim, he was competing with others, and when he missed, the tripod fell down, broke one of his legs, and died of pain.
This matter has always been a pain in the Qin royal family, and it reminds the Qin royal family from time to time that they can't do anything for the monarch.
And Ying Xuan just took King Qin Wu as an example, and he wanted to learn from King Qin Wu, can this be worrying?
"It is precisely because of this that the widow has been hesitant all these years." King Qin Zhao sighed and said: "The third child has a strong physique and excellent energy, while the crown prince is peaceful, although he is not very shrewd, at least he is not very virtuous, and sometimes he can understand it, and he is stronger than the third child." The problem is that the two sons of the widow have their own fatal flaws, and if they can be combined into one, the third son and the second child's peace, how good it would be! ”
Speaking of this, King Qin Zhao spread his hands in distress, with an impatient face.
As he said, if these two sons "neutralize" it, and Ying Xuan's strong physique is given to Ying Zhu, or Ying Zhu's temper is given to Ying Xuan, it will be even better, and he will no longer have to worry about the prince.
"Now, the stranger has returned, and the widow has investigated many times, and found that the widow's grandson is shrewd, strong, ruthless, and the city is deep, and knows how to measure, these are all indispensable for the king." King Qin Zhao finally had a smile on his face and said, "It's just that he has been away for several years, and the widow doesn't know much about him, is he really like this?" The widow must take a good look at this. ”
Qin Yiren's performance was very eye-catching, and he was very interested in King Qin Zhao's temper, and he admired Qin Yiren from the bottom of his heart. However, the matter of the prince was too important, and he had to be cautious and examine it again and again before he could make a decision.
"What the king said is very reasonable, I mean, there is no need to rush to make a decision on this matter, let's take a look first. It's best to send the Inhuman out and let him stand alone, and try his talents. Ying Liang thought for a moment.
"What the old brother said is very reasonable. It's just that if you want to send a stranger to stand alone, you don't have a chance right now. King Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows and said: "It is a good opportunity to conquer Shandong in the coming year, but this matter is too big to make him a general, so it must be in vain." ”
After the first battle of Zhongmu, Shandong's elite was lost, and it was no longer able to compete with the Qin State, which was a good opportunity for the Qin State to advance eastward and wipe out the Six Kingdoms. The question is, this is the first time that such a good opportunity has appeared in the Warring States of the Hundred Years, and if it is missed, what is the point of regret?
Although King Qin Zhao wanted to order Qin Yiren as a general and lead his troops into battle. However, it was too risky, and he had to scruple about it. And Bai Qi is a good general, with such a good general, why take the risk?
"Your Majesty, it's useless to be in a hurry." Ying Liang said with a smile: "Jun Shang's body is strong, and the spring and autumn season is in full bloom, so there is no need to rush for a while, maybe there is a good opportunity." ”
"That's right." King Qin Zhao nodded heavily, and said: "The matter of the prince is already very important, and the widow has to think twice, and the monarch of the next generation of Great Qin has a lot to do with it, and it is related to whether the world can be unified and whether the world can be restored to peace. ”
King Qin Zhao's words are not an exaggeration, but a fact.
After the Battle of Changping, the Qin State opened the way to unification. The general trend of the world is in Qin's hands. And after the first battle of Zhongmu. The general trend of the world is more favorable to the Qin State. The Qin state is likely to sweep away the six kingdoms and unify China. Therefore, the Qin State must have a monarch who is ambitious and enterprising.
The next generation of monarchs is related to whether the Qin State can unify China and whether it can end hundreds of years of war, and he has to be cautious and cautious!
"There is one more thing that I have brought you here today." King Qin Zhao frowned and shook his head. As if he wanted to throw this kind of troublesome thing out of his mind, he said: "I left Qin on a different day, and now I am over twenty years old, but I have not been crowned, and I ask my brother to preside over this matter." ”
In ancient times, women and men were crowned, which was a major event in life, marking adulthood, and the ancients attached great importance to it. If you don't crown it, you will live to be thirty or fifty years old. It's not considered "adult", it's yes. Crowning is essential.
An emperor like Qin Shi Huang could not be pro-government without a crown, and this is the proof of this.
According to the Qin law, a man is crowned at twenty, and Qin Yiren has already passed the age of twenty, but because he is in Handan, he has not yet been crowned. If Qin Yiren wants to do things, he must be crowned, and it is a top priority. Only by crowning can he do things in the Qin State and become an official.
"We have discussed this matter a few times, and in three days it will be an auspicious period, and it is appropriate to be crowned. What we mean, the stranger will be crowned in three days, do you think it's okay? Ying Liang smiled.
He and the other three clan elders are all old and refined characters, how can they not understand the truth of King Qin Zhao's thoughts, and the matter of crowning has long been in preparation.
"In this way, the widow will be relieved." King Qin Zhao greatly appreciated this move and said with a smile.

In Xia Ji's small courtyard, Qin Yiren was holding Xiao Yingzheng and teasing.
Xiao Yingzheng rolled his dark eyes and smiled at Qin Yiren, Qin Yiren was overjoyed.
"Childe, the post sent by the Zongren Mansion said that Gongzi would be crowned in three days." Meng Zhao walked in quickly and handed a post to Qin Yiren.
"Crowned?" Qin Yiren suddenly remembered that he had not yet been crowned, strictly speaking, he was not "adult" and could not be considered an adult.
"Huh." Xia Ji was very happy, smiled so much that her eyes narrowed together, and said, "Yiren, only after the crown, can you be counted as a ding." At that time, you will be able to work in the Qin State, and you can get an official position. ”
"There are a lot of benefits to crowning." Qin Yiren smiled slightly, and said to Meng Zhao: "Meng Zhao, I know that you are like arrows and want to reunite with your family. It stands to reason that when I return to Xianyang, I will have nothing to do, and I can let you go home. However, I changed my mind. ”
"Childe, don't worry, it is our honor to be born and die for Childe, I won't go home." Meng Zhao is loyal to Qin Yiren, as long as Qin Yiren needs it, his life is Qin Yiren, don't talk about going home.
"I'm not not letting you go home, I'm holding off for a few days." Qin Yiren waved his right hand to stop him from continuing, and said: "Three days later is the day I am crowned, and my intention is to invite you, as well as Ma Gai, Fan Tong, and Lu Jujian to participate together." ”
"Childe, you let us participate in Childe's coronation ceremony?" Meng Zhao's eyes were wide open, and his face was incredulous.
"You have been with me in Zhao for several years, you have endured all the hardships and hardships, I have nothing to repay, so please participate in the coronation ceremony." Qin Yiren admired Meng Zhao very much.
"Gongzi Xie! Xie Gongzi! Meng Zhao was overjoyed, so excited that tears almost flowed out.
Coronation is the most important coming-of-age ceremony of the ancients, and when crowning, you can invite your relatives and friends to participate. Qin Yiren invited Meng Zhao, Ma Gai, Fan Tong and Lu Jujian to participate, this is a great reward for them, this is to treat them as friends, not for running subordinates, can Meng Zhao not be excited?
"After you are crowned, you can go home and be with your families." Qin Yiren waved his hand and said, "You go and tell Lu Jujian that he wants him to take his mother to the mansion." ”
Lu Jujian's mother had already been sent to the Qin State, and was placed outside the city by the Qin State, assigned a piece of land, and became a countryman, and her life was not bad. However, Lu Jujian is a filial son, and he can't leave his mother, so take her to the house, which is the best of both worlds.
"Gongzi Xie." Meng Zhao left happily.
As soon as Meng Zhao left, two more people came in, Qin Yiren took a look, one was Meng Wu, and the other was Meng Wu's sister: Meng Yi! (To be continued.) )
