When people were in Qin, the advantage was mine

Chapter 9 I don’t want to believe it either, but it’s the truth

……

The fact that Ying Chen returned the military affairs to Meng Ao soon spread to the ears of Xianyang officials.

Most people said they didn't understand Ying Chen's behavior!
The war is about to begin. As the person in charge of military affairs, you should take care of it even if you are just pretending, right?

Without even looking at it, he just threw it back and said, "This is not my job?"
Is this what a general should do before a battle?

Some people are worried, and naturally some people are happy.

Lu Buwei is a representative figure of the happy group.

"Fortunately, he didn't fight, otherwise I might not be able to serve as prime minister for a few more years." Lu Buwei sighed.

The position of the Prime Minister is called to be in charge of the affairs of a country, but in fact it requires the cooperation of everyone. It does not mean that he can have all the power when he becomes the Prime Minister, but because he can do so, he deserves it. This Xiangbang!

Otherwise, everyone is still loyal to King Qin in name, but look at the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty today. How many people take the King of Qin who just succeeded to the throne seriously?
All major events in the court depend on him!Ying Chen has the final say in matters in the military!
"Why did Xiangbang say this?"

Hearing Lu Buwei's worried tone, his disciple Cai Yong, who was also the general manager of the house, was puzzled.

Lu Buwei put down the government affairs in his hands and asked, "What is Mr. Gangcheng's opinion on this war?"

Cai Yong is the son of Gangchengjun Cai Ze. He came to the palace three years ago when he was the prime minister. He has always wanted to use Cai Yong to win over the eloquent Gangchengjun. Unfortunately, the other party has never been able to Action, but this Cai Yong is also a smart man. Like his father, he is well versed in the principle of full moon and loss.

"Father has never expressed his position." Cai Yong said.

"Then, who do you think is the leader of Qin's current court and ministers?" Lu Buwei said casually.

"Xiangbang is the leader." Cai Yong said without any hesitation.

The new king is still young, and the Prime Minister Lu Buwei is the real controller of Qin.

"No." Lu Buwei shook his head.

"They're still waiting to see."

If it were before, he would naturally be the leader, but after Ying Chen took over half of King Qin's Tiger Talisman, the situation changed.

The position of Prime Minister is supposed to be in charge of the military and political affairs of a country, but when it comes to him, he is only responsible for the political affairs and not the military power.

The late king was not stupid and had his own plans. Although he helped the late king a lot, it did not mean that the late king would truly believe him.

Kings are suspicious!
The late king is no exception, but he is the only one who will not doubt Ying Chen!
Because this guy is a weirdo. He doesn’t love the throne, power, or wealth. No one knows what he wants, but at least, Ying Chen is not interested in these things that everyone wants. In other words, Ying Chen There is no conflict of interest between Chen and them!
Sounds ridiculous, right?But the truth is so ridiculous!

Everything in the world is for profit, and everything in the world is for profit. This sentence is completely inapplicable to Ying Chen. Not to mention him, even King Zhao, King Xiaowen, and the late king cannot understand what Ying Chen wants. What.

At least, this guy has no interest in the fame and wealth they are fighting for. Such a person should be the most suitable to be the King of Qin, but Ying Chen is not interested in power. King Qin, is he not interested in power?May I?
Everyone thought that it was because of Bai Qi's incident that Ying Chen had a rift with King Zhao, so he missed the throne of King Qin, but this was not the case. He and the late king saw the truth!

Both King Zhao and King Xiaowen wanted Ying Chen to inherit the throne!

However, they couldn't bear it!

Because Ying Chen doesn't want it, but as long as they give it to him, Ying Chen will take it. If they don't give it to him, he won't fight for it.

The position of King Qin in Yingchen is not a gift, but a burden!

This is the real reason why Ying Chen missed the throne of Qin!Because Ying Chen didn't want it, King Xiaowen gave the throne to someone else, but it was still up to Ying Chen to whom the throne would be given.

He and the late king had bet on this. When Ying Chen "fallen the tree and scattered the hozens", the two of them did not break up or run away.

And it turns out that they won the bet!
"The former king separated the military and political affairs before he died, and gave King Qin's Tiger Talisman, which symbolized military power, to Lord Luoyang, just to let him help balance the political affairs." Lu Buwei sighed.

"The late king was also on guard against me. He was worried that after I took power, I would not return the power to the king. Separating the military and political affairs also eliminated the possibility of my family becoming the dominant one. The day when the king crowns me will be the time for me to return the power."

"But isn't the late king worried about Lord Luoyang?" Cai Yong asked doubtfully.

"What are you worried about?" Lu Buwei asked doubtfully.

"Do you know how much effort the late king went through to get Lord Luoyang to take over the half of the Tiger Talisman? He didn't want the military power, but it was forced upon him by the late king! He was eager for someone to snatch it from him. As long as someone wanted it, Do you believe that that guy dares to give up at any time?"

That night, Ying Zi and Chu Tuogu held Ying Chen and cried for more than an hour!He was listening outside the palace at that time!

So much so that he felt that the late king should have been able to hold on for a while, but just because he cried for more than an hour, he spent his last time crying!

Moreover, the half of the Tiger Talisman was not so much given to Ying Chen as to the Qin clan and the military itself.

Because when Ying Chen fights, he will not fight if he is not 100% sure.

Really, if you say you don't want to fight, you won't fight, just like Bai Qi did back then, but Ying Chen has a higher standard for "winning". He must not only win, but also not lose too much. How much benefit can he get from winning this battle? Not a good deal?
As long as it feels uneconomical, Ying Chen won't fight, and that's why Hangu Pass is now the same.

The late king was relieved to hand over the general power to Ying Chen, because Ying Chen would not mess around and was the safest choice for Qin.

"Give up?" Cai Yong was stunned.

Holding the military power of Qin, the strongest of the seven countries today, why don't you give up?
What about trouble? !
"You don't believe it, do you?" Lu Buwei felt helpless.

"I don't want to believe it either, but it's the truth."

Ying Chengui is the Lord of Luoyang, and his fiefdom is Luoyang, where the Emperor of Zhou lived in the past. It is a rare and prosperous place in the Qin State. He is also the head of the clan, representing the interests of the clan and even the interests of the military to a certain extent. , In this case, as long as he does not commit treason, Ying Chen's status in Qin State, to be honest, even the King of Qin cannot shake!

If Ying Chen is not moved, it will not have any impact on the Qin State or everyone. Moreover, Ying Chen is still a very useful "plug-in" at critical moments, but if Ying Chen is moved, everyone will have a hard time.

Only a fool would want to touch such a prince who is of great benefit to Qin and everyone!

"It's just that he doesn't plan to fight this battle. How can he deal with the coalition forces outside the Pass?" Cai Yong asked.

"The leader of the army this time is Lord Xinling, and he has assembled more than 80 people. He is known to the outside world as an [-]-strong army. The momentum is so huge, how can he retreat so easily?"

"Mr. Xinling has a weakness, and it is a fatal weakness." Lu Buwei said quietly.

Lord Xinling's advantage was that he was not limited to the court of Wei, which gave him a high reputation in the six Shandong kingdoms, but this was also his biggest shortcoming.

The King of Wei who supports Lord Xinling cares about the interests of Wei!

Without the support of King Wei, no matter how high Lord Ren Xinling's reputation is, he will not be able to control the more than [-] coalition troops now!

The late king and he both thought of this, and they also implemented the strategy of alienation.

But after all this time, the King of Wei has still not made any move, and the momentum of the coalition forces led by Lord Xinling is also increasing day by day. In other words, it is no longer feasible to rely solely on the King of Wei. The other countries, You have to put some thought into it...
