Chapter 3 Internal and external troubles

Leaving the palace gate of Xianyang Palace, Ying Chengcheng looked back at the towering palace wall behind him, as if he was looking at a tiger crawling on the ground and choosing people to devour.

"A group of old yin is fighting to the death together, and their acting skills can win the actor and actress."

"Big brother, how did he have the last laugh?"

Although Ying Cheng was born from the womb and lived for more than ten years as a member of the Ying clan, the three views that have been cultivated are not so easy to change.

Ying Chengcheng has a sense of identity with the Ying clan in his heart, and he is willing to fight for the Ying clan, but he is not enough to use his life to contribute to the stability of the Ying clan.

The reason that really made Ying Chengcheng resolutely refuse the bronze talisman was that he knew that he had no way out at all!

Retreat is also a death, but it is just the difference between early death and late death.

In that case, why bother to increase the gap between brothers?

"In this octagonal cage of power, a family affection is simply a miracle!"

"Hopefully this miracle will last for a while longer."

One last glance at the palace wall, Ying Cheng turned over his horse and galloped wildly.

"Go home!"

Ran out of Xianyang City, crossed the Weishui River, and traveled six miles to the fiefdom of Yingcheng, Chang'an Township.

Han Cang and more than a dozen other backbones of Korean relatives came to Chang'an Junfu as soon as they got off the court, and waited patiently for Ying Chengcheng.

Seeing Ying Cheng enter the house, everyone hurriedly shouted:

"I'll wait, welcome Chang'anjun!"

Ying Cheng returned the salute and greeted with a smile:

"You are exempt from courtesy, and you will enter with this gentleman."

In the main hall, the guests and hosts were seated, and soon there were servants serving all kinds of food and wine.

But even though everyone had been busy all morning because of the big court meeting, no one moved their chopsticks.

Han Cang directly admonished:

"Lord, the minister thinks that the matter of the prime minister ordering the lord to lead the army to the expedition is deceitful!"

"The minister admonished the lord to deceive the sick and avoid this disaster."

Servant Sun Xi immediately retorted:

"Han Shangqing, on the occasion of the great court discussion, I want to refute you directly."

"What's the point of deceit?"

"Throughout the ages, how could anyone have ever given up an army of 100,000 to others because of fraud?"

Sun Xi bowed to Ying Cheng and said sincerely:

"Lord, the minister thinks that this is a move to win over the state."

"The king is twenty-one years old and is about to be crowned pro-government, how can Xiangbang not worry about the loss of power?"

"The minister thinks that Xiangbang's move is to make the lord and the king form a situation of confrontation, and use the lord's power to force the king to continue to rely on Xiangbang, and dare not act rashly!"

"The minister admonished that the Lord should come to visit Xiangbang with heavy gifts, which is a matter of self-service, and he must also reach a tacit understanding with Xiangbang."

Han Cang snorted coldly:

"I'm afraid that Sun Servant has forgotten that the king was sent back to Xianyang by Xiangbang with great difficulty, but we have been fighting with Xiangbang for more than ten years!"

"How can Xiangbang be gullible to the Lord?"

Sun Xi broke off and spoke:

"Without him, Interest!"

"Xiangbang will never allow the king to sit firmly on the throne!"

Following Han Cang and Sun Xi, other subordinates also spoke one after another, each holding their own opinions.

Ying Cheng Hu sat on the soft couch, drank and poured himself, and quietly watched the subordinates arguing.

When the Empress Dowager Xia was alive, the Empress Dowager Xia could decide everything in one word.

But Ying Chengchan is just a puppet in the eyes of most Korean relatives, he has not and should not have his own ideas, so since the death of the Empress Dowager Xia, such disputes have often appeared, they are not only fighting for the right and wrong of one thing, but also fighting for the right to speak.

It's no wonder that Lu Buwei made a move, the Korean relatives who couldn't achieve internal unity when the wind and rain were shaking were simply a piece of fat, and they could eat without hunting!

After a while, when Han Cang and the others were tired of arguing, Ying Chengcheng asked:

"Han Shangqing, can there be a way to persuade Xiangbang to take back the order?"

"If Benjun pretends to be sick, can Han Shangqing have a way to keep Benjun from suffering from Mengwu Anjun's old affairs?"

Who in Qin doesn't know about Wu Anjun's old affairs?

Wu Anjun was really sick, but what was the result of him refusing to go out several times due to illness? Forced to cut himself!

If you're really sick, it's still like this, let alone pretending to be sick?

As for letting Lü Buwei take back the order? If Han Cang had that ability, he would have used it a long time ago.

Han Cang could only respond with insufficient confidence:

"The minister thinks that he can find the help of the Empress Dowager Huayang, and if he can delay it for one more day, he will delay it for one more day."

"At least give me time to find out what Xiang Bang intends to do!"

Seeing that Han Cang was weak, Ying Chengcheng did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but looked at Sun Xi again and asked:

"Sun Fu thinks that Xiangbang can call the wind and rain to help Benjun win on the front line?"

Sun Xi hurriedly explained:

"General Fan is the deputy general of this battle, and he is a veteran general."

"If there is a peace with Xiangbang, General Fan will definitely help the Lord to win this battle!"

Ying Cheng Chan smiled:

"Could it be that if this monarch doesn't go to pay homage to Xiangbang, Xiangbang will secretly order General Fan to derelict his duties and sit back and watch Benjun be defeated?"

"Benjun is stupid, and I still hope that Sun Fu will shoot to solve his doubts, does Xiangbang need Benjun to win, or does he need Benjun to be defeated?"

If Lü Buwei really wanted to support Ying Cheng Chan to check and balance Ying Zheng, how could he sit back and watch Ying Cheng Chan be defeated?

Even if Ying Chengcheng doesn't go to Lu Buwei, he should fully support Ying Chengcheng to win this game.

This is obviously contrary to Sun Xi's admonition at the beginning.

So Sun Xi bowed his hand without hesitation.

"The minister thinks that Xiangbang must hope that the Lord will return victorious."

"The matter of paying homage to the prime minister can be placed after the triumph of the Lord."

"It's the minister who is in a hurry!"

"The minister is guilty!"

When he lowered his head and lowered his eyes, Sun Xi couldn't see any disappointment and self-blame in his eyes.

There were indeed logical loopholes in his words just now, but those words were not meant for Ying Chengcheng, but for Lu Buwei, who was not here!

Ying Chengcheng's tone also changed to kindness:

"What is the crime of Sun Servant? Sun Fuchu was worried in his heart, and Benjun knew it well. ”

Immediately, Ying Cheng looked at everyone and drank generously:

"Everything else should be thought about after the war."

"Since this battle is unavoidable, the only thing we can do is to prepare for war!"

There is not even a single general in the Korean family who is good at fighting, they are better at obtaining benefits from the court, and they are both strange and afraid of war.

Therefore, even if Ying Chengcheng's tone was excited, the subordinates were still thinking about the possibility of avoiding war, rather than thinking about how to prepare for war.

Seeing that everyone didn't listen to their words at all, Ying Chengcheng accentuated his tone:

"If you can avoid war, you don't want to fight, but you should be able to see the current situation in the court, and the matter of this king's expedition is almost a foregone conclusion."

"Ben Jun has never set foot on the battlefield, let alone knows military affairs, if you don't prepare early, there will be trouble!"

"You don't want to see this gentleman die on the front line, do you?"

Hearing this, the subordinates became serious.

Ying Chengcheng is a puppet, but it is also a righteous name, and it is their banner.

Although Ying Chengchan's opinion is not important, Ying Chengchan's life is extremely important, in case Ying Chengchan dies, the best ending for all of them is to be expelled from the court!

Han Cang and the others shouted solemnly.

"The Lord will be victorious!"

"The ministers are willing to sacrifice all the soldiers and servants to go on the battle with the master!"

Ying Cheng Chan bowed his head slightly.

"If this monarch can return to the court safely, it depends on the full help of all the monarchs."

"Han Shangqing, Benjun is worried that some people in the court do not want to see Benjun win, and even assassinate Benjun."

"Therefore, when this monarch goes out on the expedition, he wants to bring enough 200,000 troops to chew grain and grass for three months."

"After that, the army needs to keep enough food and grass for the whole army to chew for two months."

"Can it be done?"

Ying Chengcheng's proposal did not conform to the rules.

Generally speaking, the army is all the way to collect grain and grass, how can they bring enough food to eat for a month when they go out on the expedition?

The imperial court will not leave enough food for the army to eat for so long, but ensure that the grain route is smooth, and deliver it while eating.

Otherwise, what if you rebel?

But it just so happens that Han Cang, who is the official of Su Zhisu, is in charge of money and grain!

After thinking for a moment, Han Cang got up under tremendous pressure and gave his hand:

"Minister, you will not be dishonored!"

Ying Chengcheng spoke again.

"Recently, the situation has become more and more complicated, and Benjun intends to use a large number of talents."

"Please write a booklet of talented people who are not willing to do so or whose status is not worthy of talent, and submit them to this gentleman, who should personally write to recruit them."

The home country of the vast majority of Korean relatives is South Korea.

Ying Chengcheng is ready to use talents from South Korea on a large scale, so wouldn't they be able to focus on recommending their own children?

So this time everyone is in unison:

"Wait, obey!"

Ying Cheng smiled happily and invited him to drink:

"I can get your help, I am very relieved!"

"Everyone, drink to win!"
