Chapter 388: Qin's Total Military Strength
The hunting competition is over.
A layer of haze seemed to be hanging over the heads of the people in Wu State.
And in Ying Yuan's eyes, there was no winner in that bet.
The Wu State lost the opportunity to become a sovereign state.
However, the strength of Qin State also increased because it gained a vassal state.
But Ying Yuan did not regret doing this.
After returning to the Wu Kingdom Palace.
Wu Shiqi and the ministers in the court were discussing the issue of Qin's stationing troops.
Many of them felt that they should oppose Qin’s stationing of troops.
As long as Wu Meiniang and Ying Dang are still in Wu State.
Relying on this relationship, does Ying Yuan really dare to lead his army to attack?
It must be said that most of these people are new to the court and are idealists.
For a veteran who has been in government for many years, where does the kinship between countries come from?
Just like that, they collectively missed an approach that seemed impossible but was actually the right one.
"The Qin Emperor, Ying Yuan, is a peerless hero rarely seen in a thousand years. Right now, our Wu State may only be able to survive long enough under the protection of the Qin State."
Wu Shiqi said this to everyone.
This means that he has faced reality.
now.
Wu Meiniang and Ying Yuan stayed in a hall in the palace.
The former said solemnly: "Your Majesty has done so many things for me and Dang'er. I... thank Your Majesty."
As soon as he finished speaking, he showed great courtesy to the latter.
Seeing this, Ying Yuan helped her up, held her delicate hand, and said earnestly:
"When Dang'er is older, I will hand over the 500,000-man army to him."
"I know what you are thinking. When your father grows old, I will help you."
"But I hope that one day in the future, the ruler of Wu State will be Dang'er."
Hearing him say that.
Wu Meiniang was suddenly frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, and then became completely confused.
She didn't expect Ying Yuan to suddenly mention this.
"His Majesty..."
What else did Wu Meiniang want to explain?
Ying Yuan smiled and said, "I should be the person who knows you best in this world."
"I will be leaving soon. I hope you can agree to my request."
"Of course, even if you don't agree, I will let Dang'er become the ruler of Wu State."
Just because he wants to ruin the country doesn't mean he doesn't want his children to live a good life.
Indeed, no one is more familiar with the character "Empress Wu" than Ying Yuan.
The other party is very eager for power and has ambitions.
So, from the very beginning, Ying Yuan knew what she was planning.
And all her little tricks were just playing house in front of him.
Wu Meiniang knelt on the ground again, kowtowed deeply and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. One day, I will hand over the Wu Kingdom to Dang'er safely."
After hearing this, Ying Yuan finally felt relieved and nodded slightly, saying, "I trust you, don't break your promise."
Wu Meiniang didn't say anything else, but just nodded firmly.
From then on, the words she said became her obsession.
I never dared to violate it in my life.
A few days later.
Ying Yuan left Jingzhao Prefecture of Wu State.
In front of the city gate.
Wu Meiniang and Wu Shiqi and his entourage came to see them off.
This time, Ying Yuan rarely gave Emperor Wu a good look.
He patted Wu Shiqi's shoulder and said with a gentle smile, "I will make you a peaceful and happy king for the rest of your life."
"But I don't want to see my child suffer any injustice in your Wu Kingdom."
"I hope you understand. If you don't, the next time I come here, it won't be the same scene as today."
For some reason, the more he spoke to Emperor Wu like this, the more creepy Emperor Wu felt.
Wu Shiqi quickly smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Emperor Qin. I... I know what to do."
Ying Yuan nodded with relief.
Then he glanced at Wu Meiniang and said:
"When Dang'er wakes up, tell him that I went to a very far place to buy him a toy and it will take a long time for me to come back."
The latter nodded slightly and replied, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
Ying Yuan stopped talking nonsense and set out on the road to Shangjing City in Jin.
(Orange: I wrote it wrong before. The capital of Chu was Tai'an, and the capital of Jin was Shangjing. Now it has been changed back.)
-------------------------------------
now.
Qin State, Xianyang City.
Light rain.
The gloomy sky made the streets of this huge city, which was usually extremely rich, deserted.
Just then.
A horse galloped past.
He was seen wearing a straw raincoat and holding a Jinyiwei badge, driving madly in one direction.
The horse's hooves stepped on the ground, splashing rain water.
The few passers-by barely managed to dodge in time.
"Get out of the way! Everyone, get out of the way! The court is urgently reporting, urgently reporting!"
The man in the straw raincoat kept shouting.
Only when he arrived outside the Jinyiwei Yamen did he stop his horse and rush to see the commander Ji Gang as fast as he could.
Then, he handed the secret letter in his hand to Ji Gang.
That letter was written by Zhao Yun.
After Ji Gang saw the letter, he was immediately shocked and said in a deep voice:
"Call all the Jinyiwei in Beijing, and invite the Eastern Depot Supervisor, Wei Zhongxian, to the Prime Minister's residence for a meeting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.
The entire Jinyiwei Yamen and even the city of Xianyang were extremely depressing.
