My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 319 Toad tactics!Welcome to the Zhang family, the king’s younger brother!

Chapter 319 Toad tactics!Welcome Brother Wang home!
Five days later.

Xianyang Palace.

The side hall of the imperial study is filled with bamboo baskets.

Su Jiao picked up one of them, raised his legs high and stepped forward, and then found the next foothold.

After trudging out from the pile of bamboo baskets, Su Jiao said warmly: "Servant Meng, these are the memorials sent by Dang County today. There should be fewer memorials about Marquis Wenxin, so you can go through this basket first."

Meng Tian, ​​who has fair skin and dark eyes like a giant panda, pointed to his side without raising his head: "Just leave it here."

"You don't have to carry it back and forth. Sit down and watch it together."

Su Jiao said sarcastically: "Su can't understand."

While in the army, Su Jiao had already learned writing from the military magistrates.

But being able to read doesn't mean you can understand the memorial.

Many people's memorials did not even have the words "Marquis Wenxin". They just continued to quote scriptures and roundaboutly persuaded Ying Zheng to put aside his grudges and welcome Lu Buwei back to the court.

Su Jiao's cultural level was limited to reading words. In Su Jiao's eyes, those allusions were like hyperlinks composed of unrelated characters.

I can't understand it at all!

Meng Tian glanced at Su Jiao: "The king promoted you to be the minister because he has the intention to train you."

"Since you don't know how to do it, you should learn."

"You will put the memorials you have read into categories. I will check again later."

As the impact of the incident spread, thousands of memorials were introduced into Xianyang City every day.

But Meng Tian knew that this was just the beginning.

As the news continues to spread, I don’t know how many people in the whole Qin Dynasty and even the whole world will come forward.

In order to save his hair, Meng Tian must catch every strong man he can catch!

Su Jiao said anxiously: "Then let me try?"

Meng Tian smiled and said: "Of course I have to try it!"

"But before you try, you need to straighten your clothes. It's your turn to attend court today."

Su Jiao quickly raised his hands: "Wei!"

After straightening his clothes, Su Jiao, led by Meng Tian, ​​entered the imperial study with twenty ministers, and they were arranged on both sides behind Ying Zheng.

Half an hour later, following Meng Tian's call, the officials entered the palace.

"I will pay my respects to the king!"

"Wang Gong'an?"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly: "I am at peace, everyone. Please sit down if you love me."

However, Li Si did not sit down, but raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Ying Zheng asked quietly: "What are you doing?"

Li Si said sincerely: "I am reporting this to your Majesty. Your Majesty reprimands Marquis Wenxin, seizes Marquis Wenxin's fiefdom, and moves Marquis Wenxin's entire family to Shu."

“This incident has shocked the government and the public, and there have been discussions from all over the country.”

"I believe that if this disturbance is not eliminated, the Qin Dynasty will be in turmoil!"

Marquis Wen Xin!
It’s Marquis Wenxin again!
In the past few days, ministers from all sides were like thousands of flies, buzzing around Ying Zheng, using various methods to spread the word "Marquis Wenxin" into Ying Zheng's ears.

The harassment for more than ten consecutive days has made Ying Zheng unbearable.

Now when he heard the words 'Marquis Wenxin', Ying Zheng unconsciously felt irritated: "You are worrying too much."

"It's just a temporary noise. It will dissipate after some time."

Li Si shook his head: "Marquis Wenxin's prestige in Da Qin is really profound. Many of our officials in Da Qin were selected by Marquis Wenxin to join the dynasty."

"For Marquis Wenxin, many officials in our Da Qin have some gratitude in their hearts."

"Furthermore, the king said that Marquis Wenxin had done nothing for the Qin Dynasty, but some officials believed that Marquis Wenxin had made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty. As a result, many officials were dissatisfied with the king's order and came to remonstrate one after another."

"I believe that the waves caused by this incident will never dissipate so easily."

Li Si bowed his hands and said sincerely: "My advice!"

"To soothe the hearts of our great Qin Dynasty and the public, and to stabilize our great Qin country."

"Please, Your Majesty, take back the order and spare Marquis Wenxin from punishment!"

If there weren't so many prefixes, Li Si's words were indeed excusing Lu Buwei.

But after adding those prefixes, Li Si's words seemed to become a threat.

If the decree is not withdrawn and Lu Buwei is exempted from punishment, the Qin Dynasty will be restless!

But is Ying Zheng someone who can be threatened?
Ying Zheng's voice couldn't help but contain a bit of anger:
"My mind has been made up, there is no need for you to persuade me!"

"From today on, Marquis Wenxin is not allowed to be mentioned in court meetings. Anyone who disobeys this order will get out!"

Li Si didn't want to completely offend Ying Zheng.

He just wanted to tease Ying Zheng from time to time so that Ying Zheng could continue to be angry towards Lu Buwei.

Li Si is like the toad that jumps on the feet of farmers.

It is only disgusting, never bites, and will quickly retreat when the farmer's patience reaches its limit.

In this way, considering that this toad is diligently catching pests and protecting crops every day, farmers will not be willing to step on it to death just because of a little disgust!
So the first time he noticed the change in Ying Zheng's tone, Li Si handed over his hand without hesitation: "Wei!"

Li Si's rapid retreat made Ying Zheng's anger as powerful as a fist hitting cotton.

After spending a few breaths to adjust his mentality, Ying Zheng continued: "Now the autumn harvest has passed, and the autumn grain has been put into the warehouse..."

Before Ying Zheng finished speaking, a burst of shouting suddenly sounded outside the door.

"The situation of the eight hundred miles of Yingchuan County's army is urgently reported. Please see the king!"

Yingchuan County?
How could Yingchuan County send an urgent military report!

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly condensed and he shouted: "Pass it!"

The door opened, and a strange messenger entered the imperial study with the support of two eunuchs.

"Big, big king!"

The messenger raised the bamboo tube high and spoke with a breath and a trembling voice: "Urgent report from Yingchuan, county, army, and military information!"

"Your Majesty, please watch it!"

Without Ying Zheng's instructions, Meng Tian had already picked up his lower clothes and ran towards the messenger with rapid strides.

After verifying the clay-seal letter, Meng Tian quickly opened the bamboo tube, took out the bamboo slips and presented it to Ying Zheng with both hands.

Unfolding the bamboo slips, Ying Zheng's pupils began to tremble as soon as his eyes fell on the bamboo slips.

"The morning of October 11th, the [-]th year of the Qin Dynasty."

"So the Korean rebels raised 320 troops to intercept and kill Chang'an Lord?!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Royal Study looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief and asked repeatedly:
"Why did the Korean rebels gather such a force!" "How many troops does Lord Chang'an have under his command? Are you okay?"

"What a courageous thief, how dare you dare to cause rebellion in my country, the Qin Dynasty! I will ask for orders to lead the troops to suppress the rebellion and rescue Lord Chang'an!"

With the end of the two wars, Ying Chengyu's status in Great Qin is no longer what it used to be.

This is the most brilliant general in the Qin Dynasty!

Even if he himself does not lead the expedition, as long as he is alive, he can cause a certain degree of deterrence to other countries.

If Ying Chengyu really dies at the hands of the thieves, it will definitely be a huge loss to Great Qin!

Ying Zheng didn't pay attention to the questions of the officials at all. He just quickly unfolded the bamboo slips with both hands, stared at the words on the bamboo slips, and recited the subsequent words with a slightly trembling voice.

"Thanks to the bravery of Lord Chang'an, he led his 480 soldiers to defeat the enemy."

"In this battle, Chang'an Jun's formation killed the former Han Gongzi Cheng, the former Han Lieutenant Xiang Pang, the former Han Xinzheng County Cheng Xiangtun, and captured seventeen former Han dignitaries alive including the former Han Xinzheng County Magistrate Han Ban."

"Beheading 920 250 level one, [-] seven family soldiers were killed."

"Chang'an Lord won a great victory and protected the country and the people..."

Hearing this, the officials all opened their eyes wide and looked at each other.

Leading 480 troops against more than [-] enemy troops, not only won, but also achieved a complete victory, beheading many?

This memorial...is fake!

Even though Ying Chengyu has achieved many exaggerated achievements.

But this time's performance is a bit too exaggerated!

Meng Wu couldn't help but ask: "General Wang, can you lead [-] elite soldiers to defeat more than [-] enemy troops?"

Wang Jian's mouth twitched slightly: "I am just a general, not a god!"

Yang Duanhe also shook his head: "The most I can do is defend the formation and remain undefeated."

"But if you want to win? Impossible!"

The eyes of the great Qin generals looking at the memorial were as if they were looking at gods.

They may be able to go undefeated, or they may be able to break out of the encirclement by creating space.

But defeating the enemy army and beheading the thieves?
Can't do it!
Don't even dare to think about it!
Meng Wu said with emotion: "With just this one battle, Lord Chang'an will leave his name in history and forever be a model for military strategists!"

A famous and arrogant general put aside his pride in front of this exaggerated achievement and expressed his sincere admiration.

If Ying Zheng had heard these compliments on weekdays, the corners of his mouth would have curled up uncontrollably.

But now, Ying Zheng had no intention of listening to these words, nor did he have the intention of reading the words of praise on the memorial. He just looked anxiously at the end of the bamboo slip.

pity.

After all, Ying Zheng didn't see the words he was expecting.

Ying Zheng became even more anxious and quickly asked: "Is Mr. Chang'an okay?"

The messenger handed over his hand in some embarrassment: "Mr. Chang'an, you are not seriously ill."

As soon as these words came out, Ying Zheng stood up suddenly and shouted angrily: "If you are okay, you are okay. If you are okay, you are okay."

"What does it mean to be fine?!"

The messenger was so frightened by Ying Zheng that he explained in succession: "The Lord of Chang'an was hit by eight arrows and was wounded in six places by bullets and arrows."

"Of course, Mr. Chang'an should be fine."

"On the occasion of the victory, Lord Chang'an personally rode into the city."

The messenger felt that since Ying Chengyu had no missing arms or legs, it shouldn't be a big problem.

But Ying Zheng suddenly felt dizzy.

Hit by eight arrows!

Six wounds!

Is this still considered safe?

This is a serious injury!

"Your Majesty!" Seeing Ying Zheng's steps faltered, Meng Tian quickly stretched out his hand to hold Ying Zheng's arm.

Ying Zheng shook off Meng Tian's hand and stared at the messenger: "Where is the military report from Lord Chang'an?"

The messenger said blankly: "Chang'an Lord, no military report has been sent back."

Ying Zheng pressed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and looked at the messenger with an increasingly cold look:

"After every battle, the king's brother will send back military reports to comfort the people."

"And now you say that Brother Wang has not sent back any military reports?"

"Take this man down and torture him severely!"

Ying Zheng is still waiting to hear what Ying Chengyu whispers!
But you said Ying Chengyu didn't send back any military reports?

Such a big thing happened, how could Brother Wang not send back the military report!
This made Ying Zheng directly suspicious of the messenger and the memorial in his hand, and even more worried about Ying Chengyu's situation.

Seeing Su Jiao and other ministers approaching him, the messenger panicked.

Kneeling on the ground, the messenger stammered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"Chang'an Lord does not need to send back military reports!"

"When I humbly set out, Lord Chang'an has already set off."

"Calculating the time, Lord Chang'an will arrive at Xianyang City tonight at the latest!"

Ying Zheng looked astonished: "You mean, the seriously injured Lord Chang'an set off back to Xianyang City immediately after the war?"

I know exactly what kind of temper my brother Wang is.

For a lazy person like him, if there was nothing urging him from behind, he might be eager to take advantage of this serious injury to take half a year off!

Then you said that he returned to Xianyang with serious injuries just after the war?
The messenger nodded wildly: "That's right, that's right!"

"There is no deceit in being humble!"

Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice: "Why did Lord Chang'an return to the court so quickly?"

The messenger almost burst into tears: "I am just a messenger, I don't know what I am doing!"

Ying Zheng's eyes were full of concentration.

After pondering for a few breaths, Ying Zheng shouted in a deep voice: "Pass on my order!"

"Order Wang Wan, the guard captain, to order two thousand guards, order Yongxiang to order Zhao Ning to order five hundred eunuchs, order Feng Quji to order all the ministers, and order Zhao Gao to prepare chariots and horses."

"In half an hour, follow the others out of the city and head east."

"Go pick up Mr. Chang'an!"
