My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 31 How can a third-generation farmer be worth my blood on the battlefield!
The eighth husband was shocked: "General Fan is not from Xiangbang?"

"how can that be!"

"If General Fan is not a member of the Prime Minister, why would the Prime Minister let General Fan do such a big thing?!"

Ying Chengyu’s right to speak is approximately zero, but Ying Chengyu’s symbolic significance is great.

If Ying Chengyu can survive, it will take a long time for Lu Buwei to expel the Korean relatives from the court.

This is nothing at other points in time. After all, they are all fighting for important positions in the court, so what if it takes a few years!

But what time is it now?

Ying Zheng will take charge soon!
If Lu Buwei cannot have an absolute advantage in the court before Ying Zheng takes office, the offensive and defensive momentum between Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng will change!
Therefore, Lu Buwei needs Ying Chengyu to die quickly.

Only when Ying Chengyu dies can the Han clan's relatives be defeated and dispersed, immediately freeing up a large number of vacancies for Lu Buwei to install his direct descendants.

Even if such an important task is not done by close associates, it must be done by one of your own.

Therefore, the conjecture that Fan Yuqi and Lu Buwei are not in the same party is extremely ridiculous!
Ying Chengyu thought thoughtfully: "Perhaps it's not that Xiangbang doesn't want to find a close confidant to do this, but that he really can't find a more suitable person!"

"Even Fan Yuqi did not completely obey Lu Buwei, but only cooperated out of interests."

"That's why Lu Buwei asked Zhao Zhe, a close confidant, to monitor him, and asked Pu Hao to be the back-up man!"

The more he thought about it, the more Ying Chengyu felt that this ridiculous conjecture was probably the truth!

Since Ying Zheng returned to Da Qin, the main enemies of the Han family relatives were Lu Buwei and his family, so Ying Chengxu also knew a lot about Lu Buwei.

Ying Chengxuan knew very well that Lu Buwei would look down on the entire situation most of the time, and would even look outside the situation to find weak points.

Once found, Lu Buwei would immediately stake everything and attack one point with thunderous force.

Then use a point to break through the chaos!

The representative case was Lu Buwei's counterattack against the Five Kingdoms' campaign to conquer Qin two years ago.

Decisive, sharp, and get to the point!
The mutiny was interlocking, had many steps, and took a long time, which was completely inconsistent with Lu Buwei's handiwork.

The eighth husband's face was full of shock: "Xiangbang has been in charge of the government for more than ten years, and he has three thousand followers."

"How come he doesn't have any cronies in the army!"

Ying Chengyu basically confirmed his judgment and his tone became firm: "Because Xiangbang never controlled the military's ideas from beginning to end!"

"The prime minister recommended Gan Luo, Li Si and other civil servants, but he never recommended a single military general."

"He has this power. Prime Minister Fan Ju once recommended Zheng Anping as a general, but Lu Buwei did not do so."

"He has no intention of controlling the military, and is even pushing the military out!"

Lu Buwei has completely opened up the road to becoming a knight for meritorious service, which is a good thing for the vast majority of Qin people.

Qin people no longer had to fight on the battlefield to obtain titles. They could obtain titles through many methods, such as donating food and arresting wanted criminals.

But how can the nobles among the Qin army be happy?
Our titles are all exchanged for our lives. Why can they exchange grain for their titles?
Just because they have money and food?
Why can someone else's three-generation farmer be worthy of my blood spilled on the battlefield! ! !
In Da Qin, there is no such truth!

And when the focus was extended to the entire Qin army, Lu Buwei's move touched the fundamental interests of the Qin army!

Merit-based knighthood greatly weakened the enthusiasm of the property-owning class to join the army and created a breeding ground for corruption.

And because of the large-scale release of titles, there are too many people with low-level titles, and there are simply not enough official positions.

Originally, a prince could return to his hometown to serve as a pavilion chief after retiring from the army, but now it is considered good to be a lizheng.

When Lu Buwei began to promote meritorious service, he was destined to become the opponent of most of the Qin army generals!

Bafu was a little confused: "Is there anyone who takes the initiative to push the power outward?" Ying Chengyu said in a somewhat inexplicable tone: "Maybe he is practicing his own thoughts and ideas."

"Maybe he's preparing an escape route for himself."

"Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals: Wandao" clarifies Lu Buwei's proposition: everyone should perform his own duties.

As a king, don't worry about so many details, just do what you should do as a king, and just select the talents.

As a general, don't worry about the various situations in the government or the hardships of the people's livelihood. Just fight your battle well.

Similarly, as the prime minister, Lu Buwei should only sit in the court and coordinate all parties, and should not do other things.

Not recruiting close relatives and direct descendants in the army is Lu Buwei's self-restraint.

At the same time, it was also Lu Buwei’s statement towards Ying Zheng, showing that he really had no intention of usurping the throne, he just wanted to be a powerful minister!

The eighth husband smiled bitterly and handed over his hands: "Master, I don't have enough brain."

"I humbly advise you to send a letter back to Chang'an to seek advice from Han Cang and other ministers."

"They must have already analyzed Lu Buwei's power and know more about it than we do."

Ying Chengyu shook his head: "Even if they know that I have doubts, how can they help me clear my doubts?"

"They don't want me to die, but they don't want me to live in peace."

After restraining his negative emotions for a while, Ying Chengyu said warmly: "The general already knows this matter."

"Put on the bamboo basket and let's go!"

Yang Hu had been waiting outside the tent for a long time. When he saw Ying Chengyu coming out of the tent, he quickly handed over his hand: "General!"

Ying Chengyu looked at Yang Hu coldly: "I can feel that Fan Yuqi's intention is not good for me."

"But I never thought that there would be so many generals who wanted to commit rebellion."

"This general almost thought that the target of our army's expedition was not Zhao at all, but this general, the commander-in-chief of the first army."

"You all really opened my eyes to this general!"

Yang Hu instantly broke into a layer of cold sweat.

God knows if Fan Yuqi is a serious person and has the habit of keeping a diary.

If Fan Yuqi had written down every detail of everything that had happened since the expedition, how could Ying Chengyu still trust them?

Yang Hu knelt down on one knee and shouted loudly: "The general is guilty!"

"At the end of the day, the general was just a captain, so he had to commit himself to Fan Yuqi and help the tiger."

"But at the end of the day, the general is devoted to the Qin Dynasty and is even more loyal to the general. I hope the general will understand clearly!"

Ying Chengxuan asked quietly: "General Yang is now saying that he is loyal to me. I am afraid that all the generals will say they are loyal to me later."

"Could it be that the letters and records I saw in Fan Yuqi's account are all false and were framed by Fan Yuqi's madness?"

Yang Hu was sweating even more.

He knew that no matter what evidence Ying Chengxuan had, he now had to come up with some solid information to prove it to himself!
After a moment's hesitation, Yang Hu spoke seriously: "Liu An, the captain of the army, and Tan Ming, the captain of the army, both have their hearts set on Fan Yuqi."

"Every time Fan Yuqi goes to a banquet, he will leave one of these two people to guard the military camp."

"The thing that triggered the mutiny was probably Tan Ming, who stayed at the military camp tonight!"
