Inside the Xianyang Palace

A group of civil and military officials knelt on soft cushions and expressed their opinions.

Since the news of the union of the six kingdoms of Shandong once again came to the Qin State, there were also many opinions among the ministers.

It was suggested that peace should be negotiated.

At this time, although the Qin State had military subsidies given by various schools in the name of funding the Great Qin Academy, as well as huge profits from paper and books, after all, some of the canals built by Zheng Guo by the hydraulic engineering cost too much national strength, and there were indeed many risks in the war.

And as long as he waits for the completion of the more than 40,000 hectares of water canal that can irrigate the land of Zelu, the Qin State will be invincible.

However, there are also extreme courtiers who think that this canal is a disaster for the country and the people, and how much national strength it has consumed and how much forced labor it has used should be abolished.

From time to time, there are also people in the court who impeach this Korean who entered the Qin to repair the canal, if it is not maintained by Yingzheng, I am afraid that this canal, which has taken many years and a lot of manpower and material resources, will end without a problem, and Zheng Guo estimates that it will inevitably end up with five horses splitting the corpse.

Ignoring these extreme courtiers, in fact, Yingzheng did not think about peace.

The Qin people are warlike, and the Qin people are warlike, but the Qin people are not reckless.

If the canal is completed, then all the countries of Shandong will be trampled under the feet of the Qin State.

However, it is impossible for the countries of Shandong to agree to negotiate peace.

There are many virtuous ministers in the Qin State, and there is no shortage of capable people in Shandong countries.

There may not be many people who are well-educated from all over the world, and they can naturally see the weakness of the Qin State at this moment, as well as the importance of that canal, especially this strategy, which was planned by Han Fei and Zhang Liang and implemented openly.

Therefore, the theory of peace was directly rejected by Yingzheng.

If peace cannot be negotiated, then the only way to fight and kill is to be carried out.

"Widow, I want to go to Hangu to sit down."

Ying Zheng's voice fell, and he did not get the cheering and encouraging appearance of the Qin people he expected, but there was silence, and the air seemed to freeze because of his words.

"No king!"

Unexpectedly, Yangquan Jun Michen, a gentleman who rarely participates in major military and political affairs, actually stood up and took the lead in opposing it.

"How can the king's body be in danger?"

Mi Chen is really anxious, the interests of the Chu family are all on Yingzheng alone, if something happens to Yingzheng, then what's the matter?

P.S. There are not a few courtiers of Mi Chen, and they are all against Yingzheng's personal conquest.

Ying Zheng asked rhetorically: "The ancestors have all been in charge of the expedition, why can't they be widowed?" ”

"The alliance of the nations began with the first king of Huiwen, the first king of Huiwen repeatedly kissed the town of Hangu to resist the joint alliance of the nations, and the first king of Zhaoxiang went to the front line to resist the joint vertical when he was young, and the same is true of the first king of Zhuangxiang, why can't there be few people?"

The prince of Qin personally conquered, which has almost become a tradition of the Qin state.

Moreover, every time the Shandong countries invaded Qin, the kings of Qin would personally sit in Hangu Pass to boost morale.

In that year, the countries were united, Jingcui conquered Wuguan, all the way north to Lantian less than 100 miles away from Xianyang, Huiwen Wang Yingsi took Xiangbang Zhang Yi and other ministers, called on the whole clan of the Yingqin clan and the Qin people in Guanzhong to go into battle to resist the enemy, and finally held on to the time when the back road of the Chu army was cut off and had to retreat.

Therefore, Ying Zheng thinks that he is in charge of the expedition, and he should never be opposed by the ministers like this.

But the ministers are not without their own considerations, not to mention that the Qin State has not yet reached the crisis of dying if Yingzheng does not drive the conquest in person, in the past ten years, the Qin State has lost three kings in a row, and the Qin State can no longer afford the death of a king.

If Ying Zheng has an heir, it would be fine, but Ying Zheng has just been crowned and has not officially married a wife, let alone an heir, if something happens to Ying Zheng, I am afraid that the Qin State will have another Ji Jun Rebellion.

For a while, many people set their eyes on Gongzi Chengto.

If there is any accident for Yingzheng, then Gongzi Cheng Chan will be the most legitimate heir of the Qin State...... Even Li Si, Feng Quji and other Yingzheng officials also looked at Gongzi Cheng, and their eyes were not lacking in malice.

In the final analysis, Cheng Chan's maternal line is from another country, and he was once pushed with the support of the Chu family to try to compete with the young Yingzheng for the position of prince.

Ying Zheng still trusts Cheng Chan's younger brother very much, otherwise he would not have given this younger brother a lot of power. He didn't expect that he just mentioned the matter of pro-conquest, but he was thought of by the ministers on Cheng Chan's body.

Ying Zheng's gaze swept to the side, but he didn't see the two figures he wanted to see.

Zhang Ji took leave at home and did not come to the court, while Lü Buwei, as the commander of the Qin army that resisted the joint alliance, had already gone to the Lantian camp and began to mobilize the Qin army in various places, and Wang Xuan, the imperial historian, temporarily replaced the deployment of the Qin army's logistics baggage.

Although Yingzheng is now pro-government, he is still too young after all, not everyone is completely subservient to this young king, and there are many old nobles of Qin State and later foreign nobles who are still waiting and watching.

Without Lü Buwei's command, it was still a little difficult for Yingzheng, who was still not prestigious, to make the important ministers of the court obey the orders without reservation.

"Why, you can't believe so-and-so?"

Just when Yingzheng and the ministers were at a stalemate, a hearty voice came into the hall.

Zhang Ji stepped into the Xianyang Palace wearing a black heavy armor, and the fish-scale-like armor leaf trembled with Zhang Ji's steps, making a crisp sound.

"Sir is here!" Looking at Zhang Ji, a smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face.

"Greetings to the king." Zhang Ji walked to the hall and saluted respectfully.

"Let's be flat, is the gentleman cured?"

Ying Zheng joked about Zhang Ji, but he knew what Zhang Ji was doing these days.

For several days, Zhang Ji was drunk at home and dreamed of death, and he didn't know that he thought that Zhang Ji was planning to have a last affair before he died.

But the problem is that there are these wives and concubines at home, even if Zhang Ji wants to leave the house, he can't get out.

Just a startled salamander in the realm of a grandmaster is enough, as well as Tidal and Tian Mi, who are good at Gu art and poison art respectively, and they can't move their legs.

As a last resort, Zhang Ji simply called himself sick at home.

Until yesterday, Mrs. Hu, who was still gentle, didn't care about being bullied repeatedly, and thoughtfully proposed to let Zhang Ji go.

The startled salamander is sensible, the tide is reasonable, Tian Mi is wise, Hu Meiren is measured, and the flame spirit Ji ...... It's okay not to mention this juice Ji who is now full of children in her head, in short, all the girls finally understand Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji coughed lightly, and his face remained unchanged and said: "The minister was training in Shangyuan some time ago, and he occasionally felt a cold, and he recovered today, so he came late, and the king forgave his sins." ”

Ying Zheng waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about it.

In fact, he can understand, after all, Zhang Ji is a few years older than him, and he has been being urged by Zhao Ji to hold his grandson all these days, not to mention Zhang Ji.

Of course, this hand-waving action is also a signal to Zhang Ji.

Receiving Yingzheng's hint, Zhang Ji took off his helmet and put it on his waist, turned around, and swept the ministers with a sharp gaze.

"Speaking of which, which colleague is against the king's personal conquest, please stand up."

Zhang Jixiong's low roar echoed in the hall with the blessing of internal force, looking at the figures of the few people who stood up against Yingzheng's personal conquest just now.

Yangquan Jun Mi Chen hesitated, and just wanted to stand up, but was pulled by Mi Qi behind him.

Mi Qi shook his head at Mi Chen, signaling Mi Chen not to be this budding bird.

Now the status of the Chu family is actually very embarrassing, and some people inside and outside are not people.

The Chu State wanted them to help, but the Chu Department was unwilling to help considering the interests of the people, but the Qin State was also not at ease with the Chu Department, that is, Ying Zhenggang was engaged to Mi Hua, otherwise the Chu Department would not know how to be excluded and suppressed.

Of course, the most critical point is that Zhang Ji is Yingzheng's close minister and favorite minister, and his status and power come from Yingzheng's favor, if Yingzheng's safety is not guaranteed, then Zhang Ji's status and power will be shaken.

Zhang Ji's great-grandfather Zhang Yi is a case in point.

Although Zhang Yi was deeply regarded and trusted by King Huiwen, his ideas were not supported by the successor King Wu, and he was not trusted and reused by King Wu, and was expelled from the Qin State.

"The king wants to drive the conquest in person, who is in favor and who is against?"

And under Zhang Ji's shout, an imperial historian stood up, as if he was a loyal and upright minister with Qin in his heart, and said righteously: "Zhang An, the imperial historian, is opposed!" ”

Zhang Ji lifted the leg under the skirt armor and kicked on the imperial history Zhang An, who had just leaned over to admonish against Yingzheng's royal conquest, this kick Zhang Ji did not use internal force, but just ran the horizontal practice of hard skills, and kicked Zhang An from the palace to the palace gate.

"Who else is against it?"
