My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 156: Seeing Lin Daiyu from a distance, hearing Lu Zhishen up close, your external brain is online!
The battlefield has not yet been cleaned up, and Xiong Qi is still on the way to return reinforcements. The Queen Mother Huayang and Ying Zheng have already begun to make their own moves.

But Ying Chengyu couldn't understand many of their operations at all.

Why does Xiong Xia strive to become a ye in Ping Tiao?
Normally no one would want to hold an official position like Yezhao!

Why is the position of guard lieutenant vacant but no one is taking it?

That was the power of Jiu Qing, and he also controlled the guards at the palace gates, which played a vital role in this battle!

In Xianyang at the moment, there is quite a sense of confusion as the wolves have lowered their bodies and are lurking in all directions, preparing to hunt, but Ying Chengyu, the husky, is still standing there in confusion, watching his companions flick their tails!

This feeling is very bad!
Fortunately, the external brain has issued a reconnection invitation!
"Mother concubine!"

After four months, Ying Chengyu finally called out the long-lost title.

Looking at the approaching convoy, Ying Chengyu rode up to meet it. He jumped off the horse happily when he was still more than ten feet away from the convoy.

The curtain of the second carriage opened, and Mrs. Han shouted helplessly and dotingly: "Xiao'er, slow down!"

On the contrary, Ying Chengyu sped up a little more and ran to Mrs. Han, cupped her hands and shouted: "Greetings, concubine!"

Mrs. Han picked up the hem of her skirt and stepped out of the carriage, grabbing Ying Chengyu's arms: "I heard that you led the army into battle again?"

Thinking of the promise he made after returning from destroying Korea, Ying Chengyu said with a smile on his face: "The situation forces us to do this!"

"Mother, concubine, at that time, it would be the safest for me to lead the army out of Qinian Palace."

"Even if Brother Wang stays in Qinian Palace, he is actually the most dangerous one."

Mrs. Han glared at Ying Chengyu: "You are right, that's what you said before!"

But Mrs. Han didn't criticize too much. She just looked up and down at Ying Chengyu worriedly: "Have you been injured?"

Ying Chengyu opened his arms and spun around in a circle: "Concubine, please be at ease, my son is fine."

Mrs. Han was relieved and warned seriously: "This time is excusable, don't do it next time!"

Ying Chengyu hurriedly agreed, and then quickly changed the subject: "Did your mother-in-law have fun in Xinzheng?"

"Why don't you stay in Xinzheng for a while?"

Mrs. Han's homesickness was not as deep as that of the Queen Mother Huayang.

But she was homesick after all.

This may be Mrs. Han's last chance to return to Xinzheng. Ying Chengyu sincerely hopes that Mrs. Han can stay in Xinzheng for a longer period of time to alleviate her homesickness.

Mrs. Han did not answer but asked: "Can you clearly see the changes in Xianyang City?"

"Do you have any idea of ​​what to do next?"

Ying Chengyu paused in embarrassment, and then said confidently: "No!"

The accompanying maids couldn't help but laugh, but Ying Chengyu didn't feel embarrassed at all.

His shortcomings in political battles are no longer the same.

Pretending to understand is really embarrassing, and may even cost you your life!

Mrs. Han helplessly tapped Ying Chengyu's forehead with her finger: "You!"

"How can I have fun in Xinzheng with peace of mind if I'm like you?"

"My mother-in-law has found some great talents for you this time. Please return home first."

Neither of them mentioned the possibility that Zhang Rang and other retainers would come back first to assist Ying Chengxuan, while Mrs. Han continued to play in Xinzheng.

Because both of them knew very well,

Zhang Rang and others were not loyal to Ying Chengyu, and they were willing to remonstrate solely for Mrs. Han's face.

And Zhang Rang and others will really work wholeheartedly for Ying Chengyu, okay?
I can’t say it’s not necessarily possible, I can only say it’s impossible!

Although Mrs. Han's political wisdom cannot compete with Zhang Rang and others.

However, Mrs. Han's high political intelligence and palace intuition allowed her to detect something amiss and thus protect Ying Chengyu.

If Mrs. Han was not watching, neither of them could be sure whether these disciples would use words to form a logical closed loop that seemed to be beneficial to Ying Chengyun, allowing Ying Chengyun to fall into the trap to achieve their own goals!

Ying Chengqiao thanked him cheerfully: "Thank you very much, concubine!"

Immediately he shouted loudly: "Go home!"

The mile-long motorcade drove into Chang'an Township, and then drove to Chang'an Junfu or Chang'an Palace according to the purpose of each vehicle.

Not in the mood to make arrangements, Mrs. Han took Ying Chengxuan directly to Zhang Rang's guest house.

"Put these here, be careful not to bump them!"

"Cough cough cough~"

"The house is very gray, you should go play outside first."

Entering the guest house, Ying Chengyu heard a series of shouts and collisions in his ears.

It is the diners who have returned from a long journey and the diners who have just been taken under Mrs. Han's command and are settling in.

But at Zhang Rang's door, there was a figure who was about ten years old, with a delicate appearance, a sickly body, fair skin, and a soft figure, standing alone.

"Whose girl is this?" Ying Chengyu asked in a deep voice, "Why is there no adult around to accompany me? What should I do if I slip or fall into the water!"

There will naturally be no danger in Chang'an Jun's mansion.

However, Chang'an Jun's Mansion was built close to the Weishui River. There are many man-made rivers in the mansion that are drawn from the Weishui River. It is not safe enough for children to run around alone.

"Ahem~" The child coughed twice more due to the ash floating in the yard, then raised his little face, bowed his hands, and said in a slightly hoarse and rough voice: "Your Majesty, this junior is a man. .”

Ying Chengyu:! ! !

See Lin Daiyu from a distance, and hear Lu Zhishen up close?
But Ying Chengyu also knew how presumptuous it was to misunderstand a person's gender in this era, so he quickly returned the favor: "I was the one who was rude, please forgive me for this young man!"

The child looked surprised: "It's Mr. Chang'an who is actually in front of you!"

Hearing the noise outside the courtyard, another young man ran out.

As soon as he saw Ying Chengyu, the young man subconsciously grasped the hilt of his sword!

Mrs. Han shouted in a deep voice: "Zhang Zikang!"

Hearing Mrs. Han's scolding, the young man quickly loosened the hilt of his sword and bowed his hand: "For this reason, the eldest grandson of Prime Minister Han Kai, the eldest son of Prime Minister Han, Zhang Sheng, Zhang Zikang, pays homage to Lord Chang'an."

Ying Chengqiao smiled and asked: "Looking at Zhang Zikang's attitude, do you think you and I have met on the battlefield?"

Zhang Sheng's voice was bitter: "When Chang'an Lord attacked Han, he humbled himself under my father's tent and listened to orders. I saw Chang'an Lord from a distance on the city wall."

"After the war was unfavorable, I was humble and led my family to flee."

"After the princess returned to Xinzheng, my father-in-law wrote to me, and we returned quickly, willing to follow the princess!"

The last time they met, they were life-and-death enemies. In the months after the war, Zhang Sheng had always suspected that Zhang Rang was being treated harshly by Ying Chengxi. He hung Ying Chengxi's portrait on the wall every day to make his ambition clear. His only goal in this life was to kill Zhang Rang. Ying Chenglong.

When we met again, hey, we became teammates?
Zhang Sheng couldn't adapt to this rapid change of identity for a while.

Therefore, Zhang Sheng's words were also very blunt, indicating that although we live in Chang'an Jun's Mansion, we are not prepared to be loyal to you, we are only loyal to the Sixth Princess!

Ying Chengyu bowed his hands and said: "On the battlefield, everyone is his own master. Life and death are determined by fate. There will be no resentment after the war."

"Zhang Zikang is willing to put aside his prejudice against me and help my mother. I am deeply grateful to you!"

Facing Ying Chengyu's sincere gratitude, Zhang Sheng blushed a little and didn't know how to respond, so he quickly changed the subject: "This is Zhang Liang, a clan brother of a certain person."

Ying Cheng was slightly startled.

Zhang Liang?

Is the child in front of me who looks like Lin Daiyu Zhang Liang?

But then I thought about it, this makes sense!
Isn’t Zhang Rang Zhang Liang’s uncle?
Moreover, Zhang Liang's father died not long after Zhang Liang was born, so Zhang Liang has always lived with Zhang Rang.

Now that Zhang Rang has been subordinated to Mrs. Han, where can Zhang Liang go?Seeing that Ying Chengyu was speechless, Zhang Liang took the lead and introduced himself seriously: "The grandson of Kaidi, the prime minister of the late Han Dynasty, the second son of the prime minister of the late Han Dynasty, and the nephew of the prime minister of the late Han Dynasty, my surname is Zhang Liang. I pay my respects to Lord Chang'an!"

Listen to this self-introduction.

One door and three phases!
No wonder Zhang Liang would hate Da Qin so much in the future if Ying Chengyu hadn't intervened.

As long as South Korea does not perish, Zhang Liang will definitely be ranked among the Nine Ministers in the future.

If Zhang Sheng dies early, Zhang Liang will become the fifth generation prime minister of the Zhang family!

That is the position of Prime Minister!

Just because the Qin Dynasty destroyed South Korea, the position of Prime Minister that Zhang Liang was likely to obtain was lost.

Who else could not hate him?

Looking at the child in front of him who had left a profound mark in the great cause of the fall of Qin, Ying Chengyu returned the gift with complicated eyes: "Jun Chang'an of the Great Qin, I have met Mr. Lang."

Zhang Liang finally smiled: "Are you here to find your uncle?"

Ying Chengqiao smiled and nodded: "Exactly."

Zhang Liang said with his right hand: "My uncle is in the main room. Please come with Liang."

Although he is only thirteen years old, Zhang Liang's etiquette and speech are already impeccable, even more flexible than Zhang Sheng.

Standing outside the door of the main house, Zhang Liang shouted sweetly: "Uncle, Lord Chang'an is here to visit!"

Ying Chengyu stepped into the door and said loudly: "I ask Zhang Tianan for your forgiveness for taking the liberty of coming here!"

"I also know that Zhang Tianan is returning home after a long journey, and he has many relatives who need to be accommodated. He is very busy."

"However, when I leave Zhang Tianan, I am like a fish out of water. Now..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Rang, who was lying on the soft couch, was already subconsciously shrinking inward and exclaimed: "Don't come over!"

Ying Chengyu:? ? ?

You are not finished, are you?

It's been so long and your symptoms haven't improved at all?
He was still complaining in his heart, but before Zhang Rang spoke, Ying Chengyu had already subconsciously put away his feet and walked towards the door.

Mrs. Han gave Ying Chengyu a helpless look: "How many times have I told you not to come in!"

"This time I have offended Zhang Tianan again!"

After saying this, Mrs. Han hurried into the house.

Facing Zhang Liang's shocked gaze, Ying Chengyu felt helpless: "I'm used to it."

Inside the room, Zhang Rang was breathing heavily.

Memories of dead horrors attacked him again.

Zhang Rang originally thought that he was no longer afraid of Ying Chengyu, and even summoned his family due to Mrs. Han's kindness, planning to die in Chang'an Lord's house.

But when he faced Ying Chengyu again, Zhang Rang realized that Ying Chengyu's threads were not only sewn on his body, but also sewn on his heart.

It can't be dismantled!

After panting for a while, Zhang Rang finally spoke in a trembling voice: "If you have any questions about Mr. Chang'an, you can ask me."

"I just ask Chang'an Lord not to enter."

Ying Chengxuan immediately spoke: "Zhang Tianan's previous prediction was good. Brother Wang hopes to weaken the forces of all parties this time."

"In the battle of Yongcheng, all of Lao Ai's troops were surrendered, and more than half of Prime Minister Lu's troops were lost in the battle. However, something went wrong in the battle of Xianyang City. The battle losses of the Queen Mother Huayang's troops were less than [-]%, and they were quite powerful."

Ying Chengyu carefully recounted what happened in recent days.

After listening to Ying Chengxuan's story, Zhang Rang immediately said: "This is an opportunity!"

Ying Chengyu asked, "Opportunity?"

Zhang Rang nodded lightly: "The Queen Mother Huayang is so powerful that King Qin needs a force to check and balance the Queen Mother Huayang."

"This force can be led by anyone, and naturally it can also be led by Lord Chang'an."

Ying Chengyu frowned slightly: "Zhang Tianan wants me to create checks and balances and long-term dynasty disputes in Da Qin?"

"This is not what I and Brother Wang want!"

Zhang Rang laughed: "Don't want to check and balance?"

"This is definitely not something we are willing or unwilling to do, this is a necessary thing, and it does not depend on people's hearts!"

Do you like checks and balances when you are the king of other countries?

Who doesn’t know that checks and balances are a huge devastation to national strength?
But is it possible not to do this kind of thing if you don’t want to?

Look how much headache the Queen Mother Huayang and her family are giving you right now!

Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "Da Qin only needs one voice, and that is Brother Wang's voice!"

Zhang Rang was silent for a few moments and then asked with some disbelief: "Mr. Chang'an has no pursuit of power?"

Ying Chengyu said firmly: "No!"

Ying Chengyu really has no pursuit of power.

Ying Chengyu asked himself that he could not seize the throne from Ying Zheng.

Ying Chengyu understood better how much hair and lifespan it would take to complete the great cause of unifying the world, and Ying Chengyu had no interest in breaking his head to find fault.

That being the case, why would he ruin his family relationship with Ying Zheng for the sake of power?
If you want anything, just tell me directly!

You can get the benefits just by talking, so why should I waste my energy?
However, Zhang Rang couldn't understand Ying Chengyu's thoughts at all, and even thought that Ying Chengyu was simply unreasonable!
Mrs. Han smiled warmly: "A certain person has taken this child to indulge in the mountains and rivers since he was a child."

"Power is certainly intoxicating, but how can it be as intoxicating as the joy of mountains and rivers?"

"So this kid really doesn't have much greed for power."

Zhang Rang immediately said: "What the Sixth Princess said is absolutely true."

"As Lord Chang'an, staying away from the whirlpool of power will lead to a lifetime of happiness!"

Outside the door, Ying Chengyu and Zhang Liang pouted at the same time.

Zhang Rang frowned and said: "If you don't want to check and balance, then you can only..."

"Exclusive!"

"But the King of Qin also made an agreement with the Queen Mother Huayang to limit the struggle within certain limits. This matter is not easy to explain."

The relationship between Ying Zheng and the Huayang Queen Mother can be completely substituted into the relationship between monarch power and prime minister power.

Taking back power is something every king thinks about, but how can it be so easy to do?

Zhang Liang suddenly said: "It is rare to be alone, but if it only weakens the line of Queen Mother Huayang, how about flattering her?"

Ying Chengyu asked with great interest: "Tell me in detail?"

Zhang Liang raised his head and said seriously: "Your Majesty, you don't need to do anything more. You just need to let the Queen Mother Huayang and her family go. They will be driven by the desire for profit and act more and more arrogantly."

"At this moment, I can catch them all in one fell swoop!"

Ying Chengyu shook his head: "But this will damage the national strength of our Great Qin."

Zhang Rang smiled: "What Liang'er said is not impossible, and it may not necessarily damage the national power of Qin."

"But if you do this, it will end with one person taking responsibility, or even taking the blame!"

Ying Chengyu asked curiously: "Who bears the blame?"

Zhang Rang and Zhang Liang both said: "I am your Majesty!"
