When Ying Chengjiao saw the two of them, he shouted harshly:
"This king wants you to assassinate Ying Yuan, not to come to this palace and enjoy a leisurely life.
Have you all forgotten your mission?"
Hearing this, the two looked at each other, and Jing Ke spoke first:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for breaking my promise. I will not try to assassinate Your Majesty again."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Chengjiao was stunned.
What does this mean?
Shouldn't Jing Ke hate Ying Yuan to the core?
"Have you forgotten that it was because of his incompetence and stupidity that your master was killed?
Have you forgotten how many people of the Qin Dynasty died because of his stupidity?
If he doesn't die, how can our Great Qin have a tomorrow? How can we have a future?"
Ying Chengjiao lowered his voice and said.
At the beginning, he saw Jing Ke's amazing swordsmanship, so he wanted him to find an opportunity to assassinate Ying Yuan.
But I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for many days and living in this palace for a few days, Jing Ke didn't want to kill the other person anymore?
What kind of magic potion has he been fed?
Ying Chengjiao was not afraid at all that Ying Yuan would know that he was the one who arranged the two of them.
Because even if you knew, you couldn't use this matter to kill him.
After all, he could then say that it was the assassin who was sowing discord.
Jing Ke narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, he had no respect for the King of Chang'an in his heart.
There was even some murderous intent in his heart.
He has already witnessed Ying Yuan's kindness.
He even forgave King Chang'an's sins many times.
And the other party actually wanted to kill his brother at all costs.
When comparing the two, the difference is immediately apparent.
If such a person who slandered his brother and even went to great lengths to kill his brother were allowed to inherit the throne.
I am afraid that by that time, the Qin Dynasty will never have peace again.
After making up his mind, Jing Ke did not give Ying Chengjiao any good look, and said lightly:
"Prince Chang'an, you should give up the idea of assassinating His Majesty as soon as possible.
As long as I am by your Majesty's side, any assassin you hire will be in vain."
Jing Ke, who had always wanted to assassinate Ying Yuan, now wanted to protect him.
This made Ying Chengjiao stunned.
In fact, Jing Ke just wanted to see how far Ying Yuan could go.
As for Nie Yinniang, it was because she had a slight affection for Emperor Ying Yuan.
Therefore, she also wanted to stay with the emperor and protect his safety.
Because from her discoveries these days, it was not difficult for her to know that Ying Yuan was really a good emperor.
Ying Chengjiao was completely confused.
Why do I feel that earth-shaking changes have taken place since this trip to Beijing?
.....
After Jing Ke and Nie Yinniang left, Ying Chengjiao wanted to go look for Daji.
Tell her how much I have missed her over the years.
At the same time, I also want to see whether Ying Yuan’s changes today are related to Daji.
Logically speaking, as Ying Yuan's younger brother, he went to see the queen privately without the queen's order and was demoted to a commoner.
But he is not afraid.
At that time, he could just say that he had not been to the palace for a long time and had unknowingly walked near Daji's bedroom.
After all, ignorance is not a crime.
Anyway, he has a lot of twisted ideas.
However, when he thought about being a 'pioneer', he felt upset.
So he went to the Queen Mother's bedroom again, wanting to ask his mother's opinion.
When the other party learned about it, he was horrified and gnashed his teeth and said:
"This emperor is so cruel, he won't give me any chance to live!
He actually wants to use the Chu army to get rid of you, and you are his younger brother! "
In any case, in Lu Zhi's heart, it was right for her and her son to plan to kill him.
But his plan to deal with the mother and son was wrong and would be punished by God.
"Mother, the plan now is to discuss what to do. If I go, I'm afraid I won't come back.
If I don't go, I will be targeted by all the civil and military officials in the court, and then I will have no chance of becoming emperor."
Ying Chengjiao was very distressed.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have caused trouble for Ying Yuan.
Now, the other party has taken the lead.
It's very uncomfortable.
After a pause, Lü Zhi sighed and said, "If you are defeated by the Chu army this time, you will have no choice but to surrender to them."
"surrender?"
Ying Chengjiao's eyes suddenly widened.
As a member of the royal family, how could he surrender to the Chu army?
If this gets out and is written in history books, won't it be infamous for eternity?
"Mother, how can this be done? If I surrender to the Chu army, how will future generations view me?"
Ying Chengjiao quickly shook his head.
Lü Zhi said earnestly:
"Back when the Divine Emperor of Chu had not yet ascended the throne, his brother usurped the throne. Left with no other options, he had no choice but to seek refuge with the State of Qi. Later, with the help of the Great Qi, he was able to regain his rightful position."
Now you have defected to the State of Chu. If Qin and Chu fight and Chu wins, in order to win the hearts of the Qin people, they will still let you govern Qin. At that time, you will be the Emperor of Qin.
At worst, he's still the King of Qin. The worst that can happen is that he'll just have to submit to the Chu State for a few years. What's the big deal?"
Hearing this, Ying Chengjiao was indeed moved.
If Qin and Chu fight, Qin will surely be defeated.
Rather than waiting for the country to be destroyed, it is better to be the first to surrender to the State of Chu.
He still has tens of thousands of soldiers at his disposal.
After the war, even if I can't become an emperor, I can still be a leisurely and wealthy man, which is better than dying in a war that destroys my country!
