Xiong Qi gave his hand again: "The minister asks for his life, and leads his disciples to return to Xianyang City with the king." ”

"The matter of unifying the army and sealing the knighthood is entrusted to Lang Zhong Lingyun!"

Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Xiong Qi seriously: "Changping Jun still cultivates before Yongcheng for good." ”

"Changping Jun can rest assured, if the widow goes to Xianyang City, he will be able to ensure that the Empress Dowager Huayang is safe!"

Xiong Qi's heart sank straight down.

If Xiong Qi was only suspicious of the purpose of Ying Zheng's arrangement at the beginning, then now Xiong Qi can say with certainty that Ying Zheng is targeting him!

Xiong Qi and his cronies were stationed in Yongcheng, and Yingzheng only returned to Xianyang City with his loyal people.

In this way, Ying Zheng can decide when to launch a rescue based on the battle situation in Xianyang City, not the time of his arrival!

Since Ying Zheng promised to keep the Empress Dowager Huayang safe, then Ying Zheng will definitely do his best to protect the Empress Dowager Huayang.

But the rest of Chu's relatives?

Yingzheng just wants them to die!

Xiong Qi cried out in a sad voice: "Your Majesty!! ”

However, Ying Zheng didn't pay attention to Xiong Qi, but just shouted in a deep voice: "Order all the soldiers and horses, have a full meal, and prepare to go to battle!" ”

When the words fell, Ying Zheng walked out of the barracks without hesitation.

As soon as he walked to the door of the barracks, Ying Zheng saw Ying Cheng standing here with his arms crossed.

Xiong Qi's pleading gaze could still be felt behind him, and Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice: "You are also here to persuade the widow?" ”

Ying Cheng Chan: (〈)

I know you're angry right now, but you can't be angry with your brother!

Ying Cheng glanced at Ying Zheng speechlessly: "Big brother, do you know how tired my brother is?" ”

"Three months!"

"My brother hasn't slept well in Yongcheng for three months, and I finally waited until you came, and my brother thought that I could finally sleep well with my eldest brother by my side, but the big brother started a big battle on the night he first arrived."

"My brother hasn't slept for two nights and one day."

"Finally, I was able to sleep peacefully after the end of the war, but in the early morning I heard the shouts of the soldiers and civilians!"

The nameless anger in Ying Zheng's heart was replaced by guilt.

What a good brother of the widow!

At an age when he should have indulged in pleasure, but because of the widow's affairs, the widow couldn't give him more rewards, and he scolded him for being ignorant last night, and he didn't even get him a good night's sleep today!

Ying Zheng's voice quickly turned gentle: "It's my brother's mistake." ”

"My brother only thought about the military and the people, but he didn't expect to make such a big move, which shocked my brother's good sleep."

"This time, the younger brother of Xianyang City should not follow the army, the elder brother will lead the officials and eunuchs to the expedition."

Seeing that Ying Zheng was so guilty, Ying Chengcheng said with satisfaction: "Let's go, the big thing is unfinished, and my brother is going to the battlefield again." ”

"Even if my brother stays in Yongcheng, I am afraid that I will not be able to sleep all night, and I have to worry that my brother will be trapped in the front of the army and have no help."

"Rather than this, it is better to go with my brother again."

"But, big brother." Ying Chengcheng asked suspiciously: "Are you sure you want to rescue the Empress Dowager Huayang?" ”

Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "What does my brother mean by this?" ”

Ying Chengcheng didn't answer and asked: "My brother's disciple told my brother that before this game started, only my brother didn't know anything about this game. ”

"In that case, why did the Empress Dowager Huayang stay in Xianyang Palace?"

"The Empress Dowager Huayang can lead the troops who stayed in Xianyang Palace to come to Yongcheng with the eldest brother."

"The Empress Dowager Huayang is also the mother of the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager will not refuse to come with the Empress Dowager Huayang to lead the army."

Ying Zheng explained: "Xianyang City and Xianyang Palace are the places where the Empress Dowager Huayang and others have carefully cultivated for more than 100 years. ”

"Even if the Empress Dowager Huayang can lead a group of soldiers and horses to Yongcheng, the troops she leads are far less than the troops she can get when she stays in Xianyang City."

Ying Chengcheng continued to ask: "If the Empress Dowager Huayang is in Yongcheng, she will not have as many troops as when she was in Xianyang City. ”

"But Neishi Zhao Shi, Wei Wei Huang Jian and others are even more useless in Yongcheng."

"If the Empress Dowager Huayang comes to Yongcheng, the battle of Qi Nian Palace will inevitably be smoother."

"After the battle of Qi Nian Palace, wouldn't it be easier and safer for me to go back to Xianyang to get rid of the thieves?"

Ying Zheng chuckled helplessly: "If Brother Wang's doorman has already mentioned Brother Wang's game, then he should have informed Brother Wang already before." ”

"If you can understand such things by thinking about them casually, Brother Wang doesn't have to ask again, use your head and think about it yourself!"

Ying Zheng didn't say it very clearly, but Ying Zheng believed that Ying Cheng Chan would not be unable to figure it out.

Xianyang Palace is an opportunity for Chang Yu to assassinate the Empress Dowager Huayang, and why not an opportunity for the Empress Dowager Huayang to weaken her political opponents?

If the Empress Dowager Huayang also came to Yongcheng, how could the political enemies hidden in Xianyang City jump out and let the Empress Dowager Huayang clean up!

Ying Cheng bowed slightly: "What the eldest brother said is the same as what the younger brother thinks." ”

"In that case, why did we come back to the Empress Dowager Huayang?"

Ying Zheng was slightly stunned: "What? ”

Ying Cheng's eyes were cold: "The Empress Dowager Huayang chose the battlefield by herself, and she settled the chess pieces, so she should bear all the costs, no matter whether she can accept this price or not." ”

"Even the Empress Dowager Huayang died in Xianyang Palace, this ending is not unfortunate, is it?"

"Forget the kindness! To virtue is not virtue! ”

"It is certainly unkind to sit back and watch the Empress Dowager Huayang die in battle, but the Great Qin court has one less voice, and Brother Wang can better control the court and avoid future killings due to court disputes, which is not the most benevolent and virtuous move!"

Ying Zheng: ???

The widow just wanted to weaken the power of the Empress Dowager Huayang, but he didn't want to kill the Empress Dowager Huayang!

Ying Zheng's gaze at Ying Chengcheng changed again and again, and finally said in a deep voice: "Brother Wang, you are a little extreme!" ”

Ying Chengcheng frowned slightly: "Brother Wang doesn't agree with his brother's advice?" ”

Ying Zheng just wanted to persuade himself, the suddenly blackened royal brother, when he saw Ying Chengcheng smile: "So why should my brother persuade my eldest brother?" ”

"Brother already has the answer in his heart!"

Ying Zheng: !!

This string of words with you is a boomerang!

Ying Zheng couldn't cry or laugh, and pressed Ying Cheng's head hard: "You can speak!" ”

"Hurry up and prepare, and I'll go out with my brother in an hour!"

Ying Cheng smiled hehehe: "Order!" ”

Under the smile, Ying Chengcheng hid a little regret in his heart.

If the Empress Dowager Huayang really died today, wouldn't it be a blessing?

……

1,700 soldiers who still had combat strength galloped towards Xianyang City with one man and two horses, following behind Ying Zheng and Ying Cheng.

But in front of Ying Zheng and Ying Cheng, more than 50 knights had rushed to the vicinity of Xianyang City day and night.

"By the Queen Mother's urgent military order, give way!"

Holding a tiger talisman high in his hand, Sun Xi led forty-nine cronies to rush through a checkpoint without stopping.

"Sun Zuoge, there is Xianyang City ahead!"

Hearing his cronies shouting, Sun Xi looked into the distance, and at the end of his sight, a magnificent and familiar city was rising.

In an instant, a force was injected into Sun Xi's heart.

Hope lies ahead!

Sun Xi turned his head to look at the group of cronies, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you remember everything you should say?" ”

The cronies replied solemnly: "Remember! ”

Sun Xi bowed his head slowly: "If you remember, don't forget!" ”

"This matter is about whether everyone such as me will be promoted to a knighthood or beheaded in the future."

"Whoever says something leaks his mouth can be killed on the spot!"

The cronies shouted again: "Yui! ”

Regardless of the darkness of the night, the group raised the torches and continued to run to Xianyang City.

"Stop! Who's coming?! ”

"If you dare to take a step forward, you won't be killed!"

There was a burst of angry shouts from above the city gate, and Sun Xi immediately pulled the reins.

After looking up, Sun Xi saw a familiar face by the light of the fire on the city wall.

"Senior brother?" Sun Xi bowed to Gao Tang and shouted tiredly: "A certain Nai Zuoge Sun Xi!" ”

"Nangong Eun Cheng has an order, quickly order someone to enter the city!"

While speaking, Sun Xi also snatched a torch from his cronies and illuminated his face.

As an important subordinate under Chang Yu, Gao Tang knew Sun Xi.

Seeing that there were only more than forty people around Sun Xi, there was no threat, so he said in a loud voice: "War horses are not allowed to enter the city tonight." ”

"This official will put the hanging basket down, and annoy Sun Zuoge with grievances!"

Sun Xi didn't have the strength to answer, but just arched his hand in the direction of the city wall.

Climbing the city wall along the hanging basket, Sun Xi sat on the wall, panting heavily.

Gao Tang hurriedly asked: "Sun Zuoge, what happened to make you return to Xianyang City in such a hurry?" ”

Sun Xi waved his hand, unable to answer, Gao Tang hurriedly commanded loudly: "Fetch water, and then go and invite all the officials!" ”

Soon, Wu Di, Huang Di and others came in a hurry.

"Sun Zoge? The Queen Mother has orders! ”

Seeing Sun Xi, several people were solemn.

Sun Xilian replied with a sigh of relief: "The war in the Qi Nian Palace is difficult!" ”

"Three days ago, the monarchs of the Great Qin Dynasty suddenly appeared in the Wuyang Palace, saying that they would abolish the Qin Dynasty and establish the Qin Wangjiang."

Huang Qian interrupted Sun Xi's words and asked, "Qin Wangjiang? Who is Qin Wangjiang? ”

Sun Xi could only explain: "Qin Wangjiang is Gongzi Jiang, which was born by King Zhuangxiang who dreamed of becoming the queen mother." ”

"Those who are compatriots with Gongzijiang, as well as Gongzishan, were named the Marquis of Nanyang by the monarchs of the dynasty!"

Listening to Sun Xi's words, Huang Ji and the others looked at each other.

Can a person who is already dead still dream of his wife and then let her have children?

A group of dead people appeared to interfere in the affairs of the Great Qin State?

How is this so outrageous!

But in this way, the reason why the Queen Mother wants to seize power is clear.

Sun Xi spread his hands: "Don't say that you think it's outrageous, even the officials think it's outrageous!" ”

"But since all the kings of the kingdoms have ordered, who dares to disobey?"

"Therefore, the queen mother raised troops to arrest and abolish the king without being well prepared."

"And then, in the end!"

Sun Xi sighed softly: "Zuoge Tang Yi, the county commander Shi Cang, and even Shi Cang's son Shi Ke have all died in battle!" ”

"Now that the battle situation in Yongcheng is in danger, this official is here to ask for help!"

"Asking for help?" Huang Ji and the others looked at each other.

After a few breaths of silence, Huang Jian sighed softly: "It's not a secret, the battle situation in Xianyang Palace is also worrying. ”

"Our army has done its best to attack Xianyang Palace, but if you want to break through Xianyang Palace and kill the Empress Dowager Huayang at the scheduled time, it is really difficult to draw troops and horses to aid Yongcheng!"

Sun Xi nodded clearly: "The Queen Mother can also understand the difficulties of your colleagues. ”

"Therefore, this official has only one purpose here, to inform the Empress Dowager Huayang of the orders of the monarchs of the Great Qin Dynasty, so as to disturb the heart of the Empress Dowager Huayang."

"In this way, your colleagues can quickly defeat the Empress Dowager Huayang, and then free up your hands to counterattack Yongcheng!"

Huang Jian and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly surrendered their hands: "Dare to disobey your fate?" ”

Sun Xi also returned the salute: "Thank you for your help!" ”

As he spoke, Sun Xi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The first step to climb the wall, success!
