Chapter 420: Peace Talks Break Down



As soon as the appointment of Qin Hui as regent was announced.

There was no one in the court who opposed it!

This somewhat surprised Ying Yuan.

In fact, it was also his fault, as he still looked at Qin Hui with the same eyes as he looked at historical figures in his previous life.

Over the years, as the national strength of the Qin Dynasty has increased rapidly, Qin Hui's mentality has quietly changed.

Everyone, including Cao Cao, thought Qin Hui was capable, but unfortunately, he never had any suitable opportunity to display his talents.

Now, hearing the news that His Majesty has appointed him as regent, I can be considered fortunate for him.

After enduring half a lifetime, I can finally take charge of the government.

Paused.

Cao Cao suddenly spoke up: "Your Majesty, regarding the wonders and military reforms..."

These two things were what Ying Yuan was concerned about before and after his tour of Jin.

Naturally, all officials dared not slack off.

Now, I have achieved some success.

However... for Ying Yuan at the moment, the most urgent task is to fight against Yan.

"Let's talk about those things when I come back."

He added silently in his heart,

It’s best not to come back alive.

The ministers naturally did not know his true inner thoughts, so they secretly guessed.

"Could it be that Your Majesty is fully aware of the progress of these two matters?"

"Your Majesty should be aware of the current progress of military reforms and wonders..."

"Could it be that His Majesty is not satisfied and thinks things are being done too slowly?"

"It seems we need to hurry up. Your Majesty is worthy of being His Majesty. He is so confident in everything, big or small. It's really admirable!"

“…”

It was just their imagination that Ying Yuan didn't hear.

If I heard it, I would be so angry that I would curse.

Afterwards, Cao Cao wanted to talk about the fact that the three kingdoms of Qi, Wu and Shu were willing to follow Qin to attack Yan.

However, Ying Yuan saw that he was about to speak, and immediately said:

"Okay, if there's anything else, you guys can handle it privately."

He glanced at Zhao Gao.

The latter understood what he meant and immediately announced his withdrawal from court.

Cao Cao wondered, could it be that His Majesty also knew the news that the Three Kingdoms joined Qin in attacking Yan?

Yes, after all, the Three Guards have always been loyal to His Majesty. How could His Majesty not know about such an important matter?

Having said that, the three guards did not report the matter to Ying Yuan, mainly because they felt that this was a big deal.

It would be better for the court ministers to report to the emperor and then all the ministers would discuss it together.

A few days later.

Mid-February of the fifth year of Taichu.

Ying Yuan held a swearing-in ceremony outside the city of Xianyang.

At noon on the same day, Ying Yuan led his army to war.

Daji, Miyue, as well as a group of concubines, Ying Yuan's descendants, and the civil service group all stood on the top of the city wall and watched the army leave.

Ying Ying stood behind Daji and asked, "Mother, will Father be in danger if we go there?"

As time goes by, Yingying, Yingchuan and other children become more well-behaved and sensible.

They also knew how difficult it was for their father, Ying Yuan, the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, to overcome all obstacles and lead the Qin Dynasty to its current prosperity.

Hearing this, Daji looked at Ying Yuan, who was sitting high on his horse, wearing the emperor's armor, with admiration in her eyes. She said proudly:

"Your father is invincible in battle. This time, he will conquer a vast territory for our Great Qin!"

Ying Chuan said with great longing: "If only... I could ride a horse and kill the enemy like my father, that would be great."

Ying Ying covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "Just you? Forget it."

"It took thousands of years of accumulation throughout the world to give birth to a cavalry emperor like my father, whose power can be said to be unparalleled."

"Your duty is to defend the vast territory that your father has conquered for you."

When everyone heard her words, they all looked thoughtful. Some were happy, some were sad, and some had no expression on their faces.

Daji pretended to cough twice and said quickly, "Child, don't be afraid to talk."

Ying Ying laughed twice.

The tacit understanding between mother and daughter is beyond words.

Yes, whether in the eyes of Xiao Yingying or Daji.

Yingchuan's greatest responsibility in this life is to protect the kingdom that Ying Yuan fought for at the cost of his life.

Of course, the country has not been established yet and the position of crown prince is vacant.

There are some things that the Queen cannot say, but Ying Ying, who is still a child, can say them.

...

The capital of Yan State.

In the palace.

At this moment, Li Shimin paced back and forth anxiously.

When the civil and military officials saw him like this, they all chose to remain silent.

For a moment, the entire hall seemed extremely silent.

Paused.

Li Shimin suddenly shouted, "What a grand display they've made! Four nations are coming together to attack Great Yan!"

"Tell me, what methods can we use to repel the invading enemy?"

It was he who wanted to attack the Qin State in the first place.

Now that the Qin State has almost mobilized its entire national strength to come, he is a little scared.

After years of depletion, the total military strength of Yan State is only about 1.5 million people who can go to war.

It is equivalent to the military force dispatched by the Qin State.

However, there were also Qi, Wu and Shu.

This time, the State of Yan is facing unprecedented difficulties!

This is an unprecedented change for all nations!

No one could have imagined that Qin's military strength had reached the point where it could send out a full 1.5 million troops!

"Your Majesty, Lord Fang, aren't we still negotiating peace with the State of Qin? Do you think we can agree to Qin's previous conditions..."

"The two countries will cease fighting and make peace?"
