My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 99 Ding~Your brother Wang applied to add you as a friend (please order first!)
The prison lacks everything except accommodation.

Ying Chengyu directly opened a few "single rooms" in the prison, and asked his soldiers to bring in bedding, and moved into the prison with Xia Wuji and Yunrou.

For ten days, Ying Chengyu did not leave the prison.

But the outside world is already turbulent.

Under Lu Buwei's deliberate concession, Tengfu successfully seized the position of Dianke, Yang Hu was also able to serve as Zuo Zhonglang, and 31 of Ying Chengyu's subordinates were given key official positions that were not eligible to participate in the small court meeting. .

November 21, the ninth year of the reign of Emperor Qin.

The sun rises as promised.

Ying Zheng opened his arms and let the palace maid change his clothes, and asked: "Is there any letter from the king's brother?"

Pi Guan shook his head: "Chang'an Jun did not send any letters."

Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

The threat posed by the alliance between Lu Buwei and Ying Chengyu is too great. If it were other kings, they would have taken action against Ying Chengyu!
But Ying Zheng firmly believes that Ying Chengyu will not betray his trust.

Therefore, Ying Zheng has been watching the changes in the DPRK with a cold eye in recent days, waiting for Ying Chengyu's response.

It's a pity that Ying Zheng can't even see Ying Chengyu, let alone respond!
At such a sensitive moment, Ying Chengyu imprisoned himself in prison, which inevitably led to the suspicion that Ying Chengyu was deliberately avoiding Ying Zheng.

How could Ying Zheng be happy?

If you have something to say, talk about it, don't drag the black widow!

Ying Zheng's voice lowered a few degrees and continued to ask: "Has Brother Wang ever left the prison?"

Pi Guan replied in a low voice: "Not yet."

"Mr. Chang'an is still torturing prisoners in the prison. As of midnight last night, 71 prisoners on death row had died, and another 350 prisoners who had been tortured by Mr. Chang'an were still alive."

"Yesterday morning, Cao Diansheng of Xianyang Prison notified all county prisons in Neishi County, ordering them to stop executing prisoners on death row and transfer all death row prisoners to Xianyang Prison."

"The first batch of death row prisoners were sent to Xianyang Prison last night."

After a pause, Pi Guan couldn't help but speak: "Although Chang'an Lord's torture of prisoners will not lead to the death of the prisoners immediately, he will even ask Dr. Xia to diagnose and treat the prisoners and change the prisoners' dressing every day."

"But if the prisoners were allowed to choose, they would rather die from being torn apart by a carriage than to be tortured by Lord Chang'an."

"The candidate who was sent to prison by me to pretend to be a death row prisoner is now delirious and just wants to die."

"The other candidate has not been tortured by Lord Chang'an, but just listening to the ceaseless wails day and night makes him feel frightened. Since three days ago, he has been summoning me every day, asking me to allow him to leave the prison even if he is demoted to a commoner. "

The candidates sent by Pi Guan are the top candidates, and they can die for Great Qin without hesitation.

Pi Guan simply couldn't imagine how cruel Ying Chengyu must be to torture the prisoners before he could torture those two iron-clad warriors until life was worse than death!
Ying Zheng frowned and murmured: "What exactly does Brother Wang want?"

"Could it be that the battle to destroy Han really caused too much trauma to King Wang's brother, causing his character to change drastically?"

Ying Zheng asked himself that he knew Ying Chengyu very well.

Although Ying Chengyu behaved very tough after the expedition, in Ying Zheng's eyes, Ying Chengyu had a gentleness and kindness that was incompatible with this world.

Regardless of Lu Buwei or Confucianism, they treat the capital of Guizhou well because treating the capital of Guizhou well is beneficial to the country and the country.

But Ying Chengyu was different.

Ying Chengyu really hopes that Qianshou will live a good life.

He actually treats Qian Shou as a human being!
It was hard for Ying Zheng to imagine that such a kind-hearted person would use the cruelest punishment to torture prisoners to satisfy his inner pleasure.

Pi Guan whispered: "I think Lord Chang'an might want to use this to taint himself and show the King that he has no contention for the throne?"

Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head: "Brother Wang would not use such means even if he really wanted to taint himself."

"And based on the trust between me and the king's brother, the king's brother should know that there is no need for him to taint himself."

The smile remained on his face, but Ying Zheng felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Ying Zheng cherishes this only relative who is still close to him.

Ying Zheng did not want Ying Chengyu to use his tactics against him, but only hoped that Ying Chengyu could come to the palace.

Ying Zheng served food and drinks, while Ying Cheng ate and drank. The two brothers sat down and had a good chat, resolving all conflicts candidly and sincerely.

Instead of... from brothers to kings and ministers!
The palace maid suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Your Majesty, please sit down first."

Ying Zheng was sitting on the soft couch. The palace maid quickly dipped some pearl powder into a silk cloth and rubbed it carefully under Ying Zheng's eyes. It covered the dark circles under Ying Zheng's eyes and also covered up the haggard look on Ying Zheng's face.

Looking at the bronze mirror to make sure that no one would notice any flaws, Ying Zheng said quietly: "Go to court!"

Stepping up to the high platform from the back door of the imperial study, a group of important ministers cupped their hands and shouted:
"I will pay my respects to the King. Is your Majesty in peace?"

Ying Zheng responded in a gentle voice: "I beg your respects, please sit down." "Thank you, Your Majesty!" After bowing his hands and saluting, the ministers sat down.

Smelling the slight salty smell, Lu Buwei asked in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, have you had trouble sleeping these days?"

Ying Zheng smiled warmly: "Excuse me, Father Zhong, for your concern. I have a good rest."

Lu Buwei glanced at Ying Zheng thoughtfully and nodded gently: "Your Majesty, it is best to rest more."

"After all, the king's free days are numbered."

Ying Zheng bowed slightly: "Thank you, Father Zhong, for the suggestion."

While he was talking, Tengfu stood up, walked out of the queue, cupped his hands, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, I advise you to promote Han Ling as the internal history of the arsenal!"

Guard Huang Jie, doctor Ling Changyun and others immediately looked at Lu Buwei out of the corner of their eyes.

The position of internal history is different from the official positions such as Dianke and Bus Sima Ling. It is easy to give up.

This position is equivalent to Jing Zhaoyin in the Han Dynasty. He directly manages Xianyang City and surrounding areas, and has thousands of regular soldiers under his command.

Although this position is dispensable most of the time, at critical moments this position can determine the outcome!
Do you want to give up this position?
Lu Buwei obviously didn't expect that Ying Chengyu would be so courageous and dare to reach out to such a sensitive official position.

Isn't Ying Chengyu not afraid that Ying Zheng will be suspicious of him?
After looking at the indifferent Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei shook his head gently.

Chang Yun immediately stood up and spoke loudly: "I have objections!"

"The place of internal history is where the capital of the country is located, and the position of internal history is a high position with a rank of two thousand stones."

"I think Doctor Han is not capable of taking on this position."

"Furthermore, Dr. Han was just promoted to the rank of arsenal commander nine days ago. Now he has not made any achievements, so why should he be promoted to internal history?"

Tengfu said solemnly: "Doctor Han has been the Prime Minister of Nanyang County since he was in Han Dynasty. He has a rank of two thousand stones and a position higher than that of a senior minister. How can he be an incompetent person!"

"The rank of the arsenal is only [-] stones, which is far from the level of the county magistrate. It also prevents Dr. Han from displaying his talents."

"Before returning to Qin, when he walked in Korea, others called him 'Han Shangqing', but after returning to Qin, he was called 'Doctor Han'."

"If this matter spreads to the world, will other countries think carefully before surrendering to the people of Qin? Will they harm themselves and enrich Qin?"

"Nine days ago, Teng was not a minister of Qin and was not qualified to advise the king."

"Now Teng must be the king of admonishment." Teng Fu bowed his hand to Ying Zheng: "Only by being kind to talented people from other countries in the Qin Dynasty can we attract more talented people to join us!"

Weiwei Huang Jie stood up and refuted: "Our Great Qin has always been kind to the talented people who care about the Great Qin."

"The prime minister, the imperial censor, and the officials were all born in other countries. Talented people from all over the world should understand the way our Qin Dynasty recruits scholars."

"However, our great Qin will reward you for your merits and punish your mistakes. The first person to advocate returning to Qin is Teng Shangqing, and our great Qin also treats him kindly as a guest."

"How can Doctor Han achieve the rank of two thousand shi?"

Han Cang stood up and stood opposite Huang Jie, and said seriously: "Isn't it a credit to follow the army to destroy Xinzheng?"

"Doctor Xu Han, with his position as internal historian, can be used to buy horse bones for a thousand dollars!"

As he spoke, Han Cang was extremely excited.

Who knows!
In the past half year, Hancang had been alone in the court, fighting against the officials.

Now he finally has a teammate!
One by one, the court officials stood up one after another, and two distinct parties formed in the court, arguing endlessly about the position of internal history.

Although the number of Lu Buwei's family is still much higher than that of Ying Chengyu's family, most of Ying Chengyu's family are new ministers who have just entered the Qin Dynasty. It is a time when fighting spirit is high, and for a while the two sides are evenly matched from the scene.

The audience debated endlessly.

Lu Buwei on the stage kept paying attention to Ying Zheng from the corner of his eye.

Ying Chengxuan's counterattack was beyond Lu Buwei's expectations, but Lu Buwei's goal had been achieved to some extent.

A normal king should be able to feel the threat posed by Ying Chengyu when he sees this scene in the audience, let alone Lu Buwei, who has an unknown enemy or friend sitting next to him.

Your Majesty, have you ever regretted obstructing the truth in the past ten days?
Now that the truth is still in place, you still have a chance!
Suddenly, Pi Guan entered the imperial study room from the back door with a short body.

After being verified by Li Si and Zhao Gao, Pi Guan stepped onto the high platform, squatted beside Ying Zheng and whispered:
"Your Majesty, Lord Chang'an suddenly sent a secret message, inviting you to meet in the prison."

"At the same time, Lord Chang'an also invited Ying Xi, Ying Yu and other clan elders to go to the prison together."

At this moment, the sound of the leather pipe became extremely beautiful in Ying Zheng's ears.

As expected, the prince's younger brother still misses me.

He re-sent a friend invitation to me!
