Chapter 204: Heart-to-heart
Ying Zheng sighed and said, "National teacher! The chamberlain who found out about this and the five palace maids around Jiang Qizi have been executed by me, and Jiang Qizi has also been beaten into the cold palace by me, and it is estimated that he will not live long, your good apprentice, you will take it back and discipline it strictly, and you will take back your two apprentices, and this matter will end here."
I was shocked, I didn't expect to kill six innocent people for this.
Forget it, there are no informalities in big things, and this decisive politics is really like when I was the prime minister of Darsley Demon Star.
Ying Zheng went to such great lengths for Serkin, in fact, it was all to protect me, and some people in the court doubted our origins, and wrote many times to ask Ying Zheng to investigate thoroughly. Once the rumors of this matter spread, the ministers will definitely attack me en masse.
I was very moved in my heart, and said to Yingzheng: "The king is gracious, although the ministers are full of liver and brains, it is difficult to repay it!" ”
"The national teacher doesn't have to be like this, the disciples you brought are numerous, and many of them have magic weapons, you must strictly control them, and you must not cause trouble again."
I knelt down again and kowtowed: "Please rest assured, the king promises that nothing like this will happen again!" ”
Ying Zheng hurriedly helped me up and said: "The national teacher doesn't have to be like this, I said, I and the national teacher, called Junchen, in fact, I regard the national teacher as a father, and now my biggest worry is the Chu State!" Of the 200,000 soldiers and horses brought by Li Xin, less than half of them escaped back, and after this battle, the people of Chu were furious, and the morale of the army was high. The capital of Zhao State of Wei in Korea has only been pacified for a short time, and if the battle to destroy Chu drags on for a long time, there will be changes! What's more, this Wang Jian has a stubborn personality, I didn't listen to him last time I wanted to win, and this time I invited him out of the mountain, he may not be willing! ”
Ying Zheng really looks far away, although now on the surface it seems that the Qin State has destroyed the Three Kingdoms, in fact, the remnants of the countries are all lurking and waiting, ready to move, it depends on whether the Qin State can destroy the Chu State this time, once the Qin State exhausts its forces and cannot annex the Chu State, then the forces of the countries will definitely resurrect, and then it will not be Qin to destroy the Six Kingdoms, but the Six Kingdoms to divide the Qin State.
"The king, the minister and Wang Jian have a good personal relationship! The minister can persuade him, this is a state matter, and I don't think General Wang will shirk it. In addition, the minister's disciples, those who use the magic weapon, I will bring the army to participate in the battle, these hundreds of people, enough to be a hundred! My Qin army has another chance of winning, and the king can rest assured."
Ying Zheng smiled, held my hand and said, "Okay! Good! If the national teacher can be like this! No worries! When Chu returns, the national teacher should remember the first credit! It's just that Wang Jian still wants me to go with the national teacher to invite it! ”
A few days later, Ying Zheng and I rushed to Wang Qian's hometown of Pinyang, Ying Zheng apologized to Wang Jian in person, and personally promised him to raise 600,000 troops for him. And he even took the opportunity to ask Ying Zheng for a good house, saying that he wanted to leave it to his children and grandchildren, and Ying Zheng laughed and satisfied him one by one. I watched dumbfounded, I have known Wang Jian for a few years, I know him as a person, I don't know why he suddenly became so greedy.
After returning to Xianyang, I discussed with Kesma and Yi Fazhe in the mansion, and prepared to let them bring all the guards to accompany me on the expedition, but I didn't expect Zhao Gao to find me at this time, and repeatedly persuaded me to leave enough guards to protect the safety of the clansmen's settlements. After thinking about it, Wang Jian and I destroyed the Zhao State, and many people in the Zhao State hated me to the core, plus Mandy stayed in the mansion alone, I was really not at ease, so I left Kersma Derainne (the clansmen who were dismissed by Yingzheng together with Serkin) and 20 clansmen, and brought Yi Fazhe, Serkin and other clansmen with flying knives with Wang Qian's 600,000 army to the east of the Han Valley Pass to the Chu State, this Sergin is really lawless I can only take him with me, and he left Xianyang in the province to cause some trouble.
I stood at the head of Xianyang City and looked at the teams of people and horses out of the city, the cool autumn breeze made people feel refreshed, and the morning sun shone on the city wall, sprinkling a piece of golden light. The wheat fields outside the city are already golden, and the waves of wheat are coming and going, and you can occasionally see farmers working in them, which is really a scene of good harvest. Looking at the Qin army rushing out of the city at my feet, I suddenly felt infinite emotion in my heart, why did these people go thousands of miles away to spill blood for a person who had never even met in person? How many of these children will return to Xianyang unscathed? Behind everyone's back, there are wives and parents leaning against the door!
It's funny to think that what I did on Dashley Demon Star is no different from what Yingzheng is doing now, maybe for us advanced creatures, ambition and ideals are sometimes the same, it can give us the motivation to move forward, and it may be the same that destroys us in the end. Although our technology is many times more advanced than these Bronze Age Morries, we still face the same problems as these Moris, clashes of faith, contradictions between races, and even more terrifying, never-ending ambitions!
So give up revenge and take your people to survive in Morlie Star safely? No way! Unless you kill me! I want everyone who came to Morristar with me to think the same thing as me! Even if there is only one person left in our Xuan clan, we will die for revenge.
Ying Zheng often says that I am an enlightened immortal, and my experience over the years may have made me really enlightened, but unfortunately I am not an immortal, I am an ordinary person with love and hatred, and I love more deeply and hate more than ordinary people!
The front army where Wang Jian and I belonged had already gone fifty miles away, and the troops of the rear army were still in Xianyang, and the smoke and dust were billowing along the way, hunting with flags! It's spectacular!
During the march, Wang Jian kept frowning and didn't say a word! It seems to be full of thoughts.
"General Wang, now that the king has given you 600,000 troops, and the destruction of Chu is only in front of you, why is General Wang still worried?" I rode alongside Wang Jian on my horse and asked casually.
Wang Jian glanced at me, let out a long sigh, and did not speak.
After that, Wang Jian sent people back to Xianyang several times to ask Yingzheng for a good land and beautiful house, and each time more than one time, I saw that he was so excessive, I couldn't help but ask him: "General Wang, the king handed over 600,000 troops to you, you have not made such an inch, you want this and that, are you not afraid of annoying the king?" Besides, if we destroy the Chu State, are we afraid that the king will not give you a reward? ”
"National Teacher, you still don't know the king!"
"The king is humble and meritocracy, in order to invite you, General Wang, to come out of the mountain in person, and give you enough face, why are you still not satisfied?"
Wang Jian stared at me, as if he had something unspeakable, he didn't answer me but suddenly asked: "National teacher, you are a master of the Tao, why do you want to get involved in this mundane matter?" ”
I didn't answer him, you have something unspeakable, why don't I!
The Qin army marched all the way east, and after entering the Chu region, we did not encounter any great resistance, and we occupied a vast area south of Chen and up to Pingyu.
The king of Chu heard that Wang Jian had gathered 600,000 troops to invade the state of Chu, so he requisitioned the whole country to resist the Qin army, the total number of Chu troops exceeded one million, and the morale was high.
