Chapter 218: Zhang Ji Discusses Integration
Although Zhang Ji gave Ying Zheng a reassuring look, Ying Zheng couldn't really feel at ease.
That's Zhao Ji!
Others still don't know Zhao Ji, doesn't he understand?
If Zhao Ji had such a pattern and vision, he would have been able to get Zhao Ji's support to fight against various factions early, where would it be so hard.
But Ying Zheng can't show his distrust of Zhao Ji, after all, this is in front of the ministers, if he shows the slightest discord between mother and son, it will inevitably be true.
And just when Ying Zheng and the ministers were puzzled, Zhang Ji stepped out slowly and showed a dossier painted with a black dragon in front of everyone, but it was facing the ministers with a black dragon pattern.
"Great Qin Black Dragon Scroll!"
"What is the emergency military situation? So much so that the use of the Black Dragon Dossier? ”
The ministers discussed a lot, even though the ministers under the hall were all ministers of the Qin State, but the Black Dragon Scroll that they had seen was only a few years ago when Xinling Jun led the Five Kingdoms Alliance to attack Qin, and it was still the reign of King Zhuang Xiangxian.
However, some courtiers keenly noticed that Zhang Ji was able to stand by the side of the Queen Mother, and he was still holding the Black Dragon Scroll of the Qin State.
They speculated about the reason, but no matter how they guessed, it was obvious that this matter was approved by the King of Qin and the Queen Mother, otherwise Zhang Ji would not have the qualifications to do so, and they did not stupidly propose any meaning.
Didn't you see that even Lu Buwei, the prime minister, didn't speak?
And Zhang Ji naturally didn't care about the gaze and reaction of the ministers, his voice was clear, and he read: "The master of the altar of the branch of the Chu State has reported that the king of Chu decided to make a truce with Korea half a month ago, and wants to form a six-country alliance and send envoys to Wei, Korea, Zhao, Yan, and Wei. ”
Zhang Ji's words were like a thunderbolt across Xianyang Palace.
Together!
This term is too familiar to Qin Guo.
Since the reign of King Huiwen, the state of Qin has experienced a total of four confluences.
In the third year of King Shenliang of Zhou, Sun Yan, the prince of Wei, cooperated with the five kingdoms of Xiangyin, united with Wei, Zhao, Han, Yan, and Chu to attack Qin, and at the same time persuaded Yiqu to attack Qin's flank.
In the seventeenth year of King Zhou, Qi, Han, and Wei feared that Qin continued to expand, and took advantage of the exhaustion of the Qin army after a long battle, and the main army had not yet returned in the land of Bashu, so they attacked Qin in a joint column.
In the twenty-eighth year of King Zhou, Qi, Zhao, Wei, Han, and Yan met together, with Meng Weijun as the commander of the coalition army, and led the alliance of the five countries to attack Qin.
However, in the third year of King Xiang of Qin Zhuang, the third year of Qin State lost two kings (King Zhaoxiang of Qin and King Xiaowen of Qin), Wei, Zhao, Han, Chu, and Yan seized the opportunity of internal instability in Qin, formed a joint column, and the alliance of the five countries under the command of Xinlingjun attacked Qin, defeated the Qin army outside the river, and chased to Hangu Pass.
Therefore, if the countries did not come to the occasion during the reign of the Qin kings of the previous dynasties, the reigning Qin kings might have to wonder if the countries looked down on him, and there was quite a kind of him who had already pulled over to make the countries too lazy to join forces to attack.
It's just that today's Qin State is not as good as in the past.
In the past, every time they joined forces, it was because the Qin State was so strong that the countries felt threatened, but this time, the countries felt the weakness of the Qin State and sent troops to join forces.
Zheng Guo dug a canal for Qin, although it can increase Qin's grain production several times, but now it will eventually exhaust Qin's national strength, if it weren't for Lü Buwei's hard work every time to do government affairs, open source and reduce expenditure, plus Zhang Ji's paper and books have brought a lot of income to Qin, otherwise Qin is really dangerous this time.
Moreover, the weakening of national strength is only one of the manifestations of the weakening of the Qin state.
Nowadays, within the Qin State, there are many factions and serious power struggles.
The Xiangbang faction represented by Lü Buwei, the Empress Dowager faction represented by Chang Yu, the Lao Qin line, the Chu faction, the Han faction and other factions are constantly fighting, but Yingzheng, the king of Qin, has not yet been crowned as a pro-government, so he is unable to reconcile the balance between the factions and gather his strength at one point.
Therefore, it is inevitable that some ministers are panicked and have a lot of discussions.
"Silence!"
Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the throne, let out a low sigh.
Today's Zhao Ji, dressed in a black and red phoenix robe, graceful and luxurious, quite majestic, not angry and self-imposing, her cheers silenced the ministers, and the palace became silent in an instant, looking up at the queen mother.
At this time, Zhao Ji had no expression on his face, and he couldn't see joy, anger and sorrow, but his eyes were slightly condensed, which made the ministers inexplicably frightened, and they didn't dare to say more.
Zhao Ji saw that the ministers were no longer speechless, and her thin lips opened lightly.
"Sir."
Zhao Ji's eyes fell on Zhang Ji's body, and there was a faint smile in her eyes that couldn't see joy and sorrow.
Zhang Ji nodded and continued: "In the third year of King Zhou Shenliang, Sun Yan, the Xianggong of Wei, united with Wei, Zhao, Han, Yan, Chu, and Yiqu to attack Qin Hezong, and was defeated by the Qin army's "think tank" Yingjian in Xiuyu, beheading 82,000 people! ”
"In the seventeenth year of King Zhou, Qi and Han joined forces, and the Wei army turned against the Qin army and attacked the Qin army, and the Qin army was defeated, but because of the discord of the coalition army, there was internal discord in order to compete for territory, and finally retreated hastily, ending the merger, giving the Qin State the opportunity to restore its national strength through the land of Bashu Tianfu."
"In the twenty-eighth year of King Zhou, Qi, Zhao, Wei, Han, and Yan met to join the longitudinal, and the Qin State took the initiative to cancel the emperor's title and returned part of the city to the other countries, and successfully destroyed the merger and longitudinal affairs, and Zhao, Wei, and Han Li, who got the benefits, withdrew their troops and returned to China, and Qi and Yan had to retreat, and the third merger was disintegrated as soon as it took shape."
"In the third year of King Zhuang Xiangxian, the battle of Xinlingjun outside the river defeated the Qin army, and pursued all the way to Hangu Pass, but he coveted the land of Korea and attacked Korea, causing the countries to not be confused and trusting, and Xinlingjun also completely lost his credibility in the world."
"From this point of view, the Qin State is in the midst of the alliance, no matter whether it wins or loses, the countries will always be helpless because of the discord in the end, and the Qin State has never really been hit hard, let alone destroyed my Great Qin!"
"In my opinion, now the Qin State is strong and strong, although the treasury is empty, but my old Qin people are united, not afraid of death, not afraid of the nations together."
"But there is also a hidden danger in the Qin State, which has not been solved so far."
"This calamity is as great as the disagreement between the nations."
Lu Buwei's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes full of fine light projected a fierce gaze that fell on Zhang Ji.
"Good boy!"
At this time, if Lu Buwei still can't see Zhang Ji's purpose, then he is sorry for Ying Zichu's trust and entrustment.
Those eyes swept over Zong Zheng Ling Yingmu and the Queen Mother Zhao Ji, and the doubts in their hearts were gradually solved, and they couldn't help but secretly admire Zhang Ji in their hearts.
As if he felt Lu Buwei's gaze, Zhang Ji also smiled back.
He didn't know if Lü Buwei would stop him, but even if Lü Buwei wanted to, it would be useless.
Zhang Ji snorted, turned around in front of the ministers, and bowed down to Yingzheng.
"Minister, please king!"
"Bow to the crown, pro-national politics!"
