After Zhang Xun left, the ministers of the DPRK and China withdrew from the Zhangtai Palace, and each returned to his post to deal with government affairs or pay attention to the front-line war.

Once they find any bad signs, they will not hesitate to withdraw from Xianyang City.

After all, in troubled times, the most important thing is to save your life.

At present, in the entire hall, in addition to the emperor, only the princes exist, of course, including Yingchuan.

Ying Chu left them behind just to see what the sons closest to him thought of the current situation in front of him.

With the addition of Yingchuan, he has a total of nine sons, all of whom are currently in the palace.

In addition to the former, the eight princes are basically divided into three factions, and their purpose is to compete for power.

Whether it is the party struggle between the DPRK and China, or the competition between the princes in private, in fact, as the Emperor of Great Qin, Yingchu knows it, but he has no choice, if there is no competition between the DPRK and China, and there is no political disagreement, then the country will only become bad.

As for the competition between his sons, from another point of view, it is also a good thing.

Because those who stand out in countless tribulations and battles are worthy of being the king of Great Qin.

Less than two years after he ascended the throne, he was anxious to determine the position of the crown prince, in fact, it was not how outstanding the prince's ability was, but because of the relationship between the two emperors who died one after another, in order to stabilize the mood of the ministers and the people in the court, he had to determine the position of the prince at the beginning of his accession to the throne.

In case he follows in the footsteps of the two emperors and does not have a prince, according to the current political system of Great Qin and various open and secret battles, it is estimated that the entire empire will collapse with a bang, and that is a situation that no one wants to see.

Because Yingchuan, who is the eldest son, is a concubine and has problems of misconduct, under the influence of certain forces, Yingchu did not make him the prince, but set up Yingqing, who was born to himself and the queen, as the prince.

It can be said that Yingqing's position as the crown prince is just a factor introduced by the emperor to offset the political turmoil caused by the successive deaths of the two emperors.

Ying Chu turned his back to the sons, stood with his hands in his hands, and said without anger: "Do you think that sect leader named Zhang Xun can defeat the enemy army if he goes here?" ”

As soon as the words fell, except for Yingchuan, the eight princes all started talking about each other.

No matter how you think about it, it's not realistic.

3,000 people to break the enemy's vanguard 30,000? There is no example in this world of being able to win against a tenfold enemy!

Less is more, and it can't be like this!

Hearing their words, Yingchuan took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart.

Since the big guys say they will lose, there is absolutely no possibility of winning!

That's it!

The country is just around the corner!

Ying Chu turned around slowly, took the lead in setting his eyes on the prince, and said, "You are the prince, let's start with you." ”

Yingqing took a step forward and said solemnly: "Erchen thinks that Zhang Xun has a lot of words and is never credible!" Even if the Soldier Saint is alive, I am afraid that it is impossible to rely on 3,000 people to repel the enemy's 30,000 vanguards, not to mention, in addition to the vanguard, there are 120,000 enemy troops following behind, this battle, no matter what..."

At this, he hesitated.

The national disaster is imminent, and he always says things that he doesn't like to hear, for fear that it will affect his status in the eyes of the emperor.

So, immediately after, he looked at Ying Chuan and said in a slightly mocking tone: "That Zhang Xun has such a close relationship with the eldest brother, why don't you ask the eldest brother to tell his father what he thinks in his heart?" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at the latter.

However, the current Yingchuan is still immersed in the dream of being killed in the country, and he didn't hear what the prince said at all.

Seeing his stunned expression, Ying Chu couldn't help but snort coldly and said, "When is it, and you are still sleepwalking?" Could it be that after the accident just now, you haven't sobered up yet? ”

Yingchuan was suddenly awakened, and hurriedly spoke: "Back to my father, my son was thinking about something just now..."

"Oh? What are you thinking at this moment? ”

Ying Chu asked curiously.

Ying Chuan said lightly: "Erchen is thinking about what method Zhang Xun will use to defeat the enemy army. ”

As soon as these words came out, a mocking smile suddenly filled the entire hall.

Even Ying Chu frowned deeply and questioned, "Why do you believe so strongly that Zhang Xun will win?" ”

"It's strange to win."

Ying Chuan muttered in a low voice, of course, those four words could not be heard by others, "Of course you will win!" Sure to win! ”

If you think about it with your ass, you know that it is impossible to win at all.

After Zhang Xun was defeated, if the enemy army pursued after the victory, he would be able to besiege Xianyang in one fell swoop.

"Then tell me how you can win this battle?"

Ying Chu didn't know if he was arrogant or confident.

"Although my father is waiting, if Zhang Xun is defeated, then my son should sacrifice to the sky as his father wishes!"

Even if the enemy army did not take advantage of the victory to pursue and could not encircle Xianyang City, giving everyone time to flee and move south, then at that time, he would be reduced to a situation of being killed.

So no matter how you look at it, it seems that you don't lose anything.

It's impossible to win anyway, unless Zhang Xun opens a plug-in.

Emperor Daqin took a deep look at Yingchuan, shook his head slightly, and muttered, "Is the emperor a real or a fake?" ”

He found that some of them couldn't see through each other.

"You brothers, don't go anywhere tonight, just rest here, and when the court meeting ends tomorrow, if there is no good news from ahead, then... Let's pack up and move south! ”

After saying this, Ying Chu seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.

"Son-in-law sends off his father!"

The nine princes worked together.

As soon as Ying Chu left with his front foot, everyone began to frantically squeeze and ridicule Ying Chuan.

The latter remained unmoved, hiding in a corner and leaning against the wall and slowly closing his eyes.

After a while, he fell asleep and snored.

The country is ruined and the family is about to die, but he can still sleep...

I have to say that in the eyes of some people, this is a manifestation of a big heart.

Xuanzheng Palace.

This is the place where the Great Qin Emperor dealt with daily government affairs, and it was heavily guarded.

Today's Ying Chu stared at the mountains of music in front of him, but he had no intention of commenting on them.

A moment later, an old eunuch with gray hair came up to him and whispered something.

After finishing speaking, Ying Chu shook his head and smiled: "Dafu, tell me, is this eldest son of mine really unlearned, or has he been hiding clumsy?" ”

To be able to fall asleep calmly at such a critical moment, I have to say that this requires great calmness.

The eunuch who was affectionately called 'Dafu' by him said: "The old slave thinks that the eldest prince has merit, you asked the old slave to investigate the matter of the eldest prince's sudden serious illness more than half a month ago, and he already has eyebrows, and he is involved..."

Nothing in the palace can escape Yingchu's ears and eyes, including Yingchuan's predecessor 'seriously ill'.

Ying Chu clenched his fists firmly, his expression was solemn, and he didn't say a word.

The old eunuch continued: "Over the years, the eldest prince has been living in the palace on thin ice, and if he behaves too smartly, he is afraid that he will already be poisoned.

The old slave hoped that His Majesty could pay more attention to the eldest prince in his busy schedule, and the old slave believed that he was not as stupid as the world saw, and even the old slave felt that the eldest prince was a wise and foolish figure. ”

"Yes, in the past few years, I have paid very little attention to him, and today's incident in Zhangtai Palace has made me wake up. The emperor is by no means unlearned, as can be seen from the fact that he is not afraid of death. Ying Chu said.

The old eunuch responded: "Your Majesty, even if the eldest prince is willing to spare his life today, he insists on letting Zhang Xun fight against the enemy army, probably because he doesn't want to abandon Xianyang City."

This place is the imperial capital of my Great Qin for hundreds of years, if there is a loss, then I am afraid that there will be no more desire of the people of the world, and at that time, this patriotic war, we will completely lose. ”

Hearing this, Ying Chu's eyes lit up, "You're right, the emperor is suddenly not afraid of life and death, and also supports Zhang Xun to lead a mere 3,000 people to fight against the enemy army, probably just to let me not abandon the imperial capital, defend Xianyang, and wait for Xiangbang to come back."

You say, the eldest prince is drunk, is it related to this matter? Otherwise, he wouldn't have run to Zhangtai Palace and put on a drunken appearance! ”

"Maybe this is really possible, if His Royal Highness the Great Prince had already anticipated the enemy's advance and the ministers advocated moving south, then it would be understandable to do such an act in order to attract people's eyes.

After all, His Royal Highness has tried his best to disguise himself as a gentleman over the years, and he is soft-spoken, so in order to get His Majesty's attention, there is no other good way except to get drunk in the main hall.

As for His Royal Highness's desire to die, it is estimated that he wants to live and die with Xianyang City, which is a sign of fearlessness, which is enough to be called a hero. ”

"Alas... The emperor has such a heart, even if he ignores the danger of being killed by me, he has to do this, it is commendable, it is commendable! ”

“......”

The two of you say a word, and you and I say a word, which perfectly fantasizes Yingchuan into a resourceful young hero who has been dormant for many years.

Even, Ying Chu felt that his fearlessness of life and death was actually disappointed in the current court ministers.

Indeed, very disappointing.

The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and no one advocated defending the imperial capital to resist the enemy.

Even his other princes!

Thinking of this, Ying Chu not only owed a little to Ying Chuan, but even disappointed the current Gong Gong Zhugong above the temple.

However.... What Yingchuan really wants is to be killed or lose his country.

As for the imminent death of the country, the reason why he can still sleep is not calm, but with the help of the artifact, he is really not afraid of being killed by others.

Even if the power of a country is now placed in front of him, he will remain unmoved.

A mortal body, live for a hundred years, enjoy countless glory and wealth, and then what? Everything is dust to dust.

But it is different to achieve Da Luo Jin Immortal, everything in the world can be enjoyed, and it will be immortal.

Based on this, Yingchuan has nothing to fear.

Early the next morning.

Zhangtai Palace.

The retainers are here again.

Whether it is the ministers or the emperor or the princes, they hardly rested last night, of course, not including Yingchuan.

He was now refreshed and refreshed, except for feeling a little hungry.

Nothing was discussed at this meeting, but everyone was anxiously waiting for the battle report from the front.

Until evening.

Outside the hall, the deep voice of a scout rang out:

"Great victory! Great victory! Our army has won a great victory! ”

This voice has already spread throughout every street in Xianyang City.

Many of the people who were about to leave the capital stopped, wanting to pay attention to the development of the war ahead.

After all, it has been a long time since there has been good news about the war ahead, and suddenly there is good news, resounding inside and outside the capital, which is tantamount to an exciting thing.

After a while, the head of the palace was ordered by the emperor to announce the scouts into the palace.

He was full of excitement and said: "Your Majesty, the enemy's vanguard has been defeated, and the 30,000 army has fled in all directions!" The head of the enemy's vanguard general was also cut off by a white-robed general, and at this moment, General Zhang Xun was taking the head of the enemy general and rushed to the capital! ”

Win?

The crowd was deeply shocked.

I didn't expect to really win?

And a big win?

They felt incredulous, and their eyes were fixed on Yingchuan.

No matter how you think about it, it's impossible!

How can you win?

It doesn't make sense!

Not to mention them, even Yingchuan was surprised, and he asked in disbelief: "Are you sure you won?" ”

The scout nodded and said bluntly, "It is indeed a win!" General Zhang Xun personally asked his subordinates to take the lead in bringing the news over. ”

Yingchuan, who was already full of energy, suddenly felt dizzy and almost stumbled and fell to the ground.

He couldn't figure it out anyway, why did he suddenly win?

Just 3,000 people, against 30,000 soldiers, that's 30,000!

How is it possible to win?

Why win?

Yingchuan was puzzled.

Calm down!

Calm down!

There must be an error in one link.

He was desperate to calm himself down.

At this time, the eyes of the ministers looking at Yingchuan changed.

From the initial surprise to the current deep admiration.

After hearing the news of this victory, the ministers were all surprised, but the eldest prince's face was extremely flat.

This must have been thought of in advance, and it was such a result.

What does it mean to be confident? That's it!

Is this still His Royal Highness the Great Prince who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do anything?

Without leaving home, can you expect to win the battle ahead? And it's still a big win?!

Terrible!

The ancients often said that in the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, is it not that His Royal Highness the Great Prince is such a figure? Did you look away by yourself before?

If there is only one person in the entire hall who is unwilling to accept the news of this victory, then that person must be the current Yingchuan.

He really couldn't figure it out.

Don't... Is his plan to destroy his country about to be shattered?

Until now, he couldn't believe it.

"This scout must be lying!"

Yingchuan comforted himself like this in his heart.
