Chapter 99: Releasing Military Power with a Cup of Wine



Cao Cao's hair stood on end and he felt restless.

What did your Majesty mean by that just now?

What does it mean to be not weaker than Emperor Wu of the past?

Even though I have been crowned a king, in the final analysis, I am still just a 'king'.

How can he be compared with Emperor Wu of Qin?

Even if we take a step back, who should I thank for my achievements today?

It’s Your Majesty!

At the beginning, I was just a small cavalry captain.

It was Your Majesty who, against all odds, pushed himself to the position of Minister of War.

He was even asked to lead the army to resist foreign enemies.

This way I have the opportunity to put what I have learned into practice.

Even the fact that I have been crowned king today is all thanks to Your Majesty.

It can be said that everything I have was given by His Majesty.

Could it be...

Your Majesty, do you think that I am too successful and that I am a threat to the Lord?

Or is it that I still hold the power of the Imperial Guards, making Your Majesty uneasy?

That must be the case.

Your Majesty is such a wise and brave hero!

Military power must not be allowed to be controlled by outsiders.

Cao Cao, oh Cao Cao, you should have thought of this earlier.

Not to mention him, even the four kings are worried now.

If I were not a king of a different surname, the country today...

What does this mean?

It was clearly saying that if he were a member of the royal family, it would have been His Majesty's turn to sit on the throne long ago.

These words came from His Majesty's mouth.

It’s really terrifying when you think about it!

At this moment, all kinds of uneasy emotions were lingering in their hearts and could not be shaken off.

At this point, if they still couldn't guess Ying Yuan's thoughts, it would be a bit stupid.

Paused.

Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, suddenly stood up and spoke first:

"Your Majesty, we would never dare to do that. We owe our achievements today to your Majesty's cultivation. Without your Majesty, we would not exist."

Hear the sound.

Ying Yuan was stunned.

I thought to myself, stop slandering me!

Listen, what kind of words are these?

What depends entirely on my cultivation?

Your victory has nothing to do with me!

If this isn't slander, what is it?

I'm very tired, okay!

Afterwards, Ying Yuan sneered and said, "What has your achievement today got to do with me?

I didn't command you to win such a great victory.

Don't worry, I will let the historians record the truth from now on.

I mean, you guys are the national heroes of our Great Qin."

As soon as the words fell.

Everyone felt something was wrong.

Because no matter how you listen to these words, they feel sarcastic.

Anyway, it is full of evil.

All the ministers who can sit in this palace are shrewd people.

How could they not know where the root of Your Majesty's evil lies?

Cao Cao bowed respectfully and said:

"As for the title of hero, in my humble opinion, apart from Your Majesty, no one else can be worthy of that word.

Your Majesty is a man of great talent and strategy. As your subjects, we should help you solve problems and repel foreign enemies.

Any great achievements that we, your subjects, have made are all due to your Majesty's wise leadership.

Therefore, Your Majesty is the true hero! I will swear allegiance to Your Majesty until death!"

It was originally a passionate speech expressing loyalty.

However, when Ying Yuan heard it, it deeply hurt his heart.

He thought to himself.

From what Cao Cao said, no matter what, the credit for repelling foreign enemies should be attributed to me, right?

What other allegiance...?!

Damn it!!

The more Ying Yuan thought about it, the angrier he became. Finally, he flew into a rage, stood up suddenly, looked around at his ministers, and said sternly:

"You keep saying that you are doing this for the Great Qin and swearing allegiance to me until death, but is that really the case?

In your eyes, there is only the Great Qin Empire. When has there ever been a me? Have you ever truly understood me?!"

He was about to explode with anger.

Today, he remembered all the new and old grudges.

To be honest, he has not had a happy life since Cao Cao went on the expedition.

If it weren't for these people in front of him, how could his foolish plan to destroy the country come to a standstill?

In fact, if it really is stagnant, it would be fine.

However, judging from the summary of memorials submitted from various places in recent days.

The national strength of the Qin Dynasty did not seem to be damaged by the war, but instead became much stronger.

This is what makes him most depressed.

So I have been playing the role of a wise ruler for a whole year?

This is really something that I can tolerate but my aunt can’t!

The ministers felt Ying Yuan's anger.

They were terrified and said quickly:

"Your Majesty, we have absolutely no such intention. We have always regarded you as the greatest emperor of all time. If this statement is false, we will be struck by lightning!"

"Your Majesty, it is because of you that our Great Qin has a future. I..."

"The loyalty of our subjects to Your Majesty is witnessed by the sun and the moon!"

“…”

At this point, what can they do?

The natural thing is to show loyalty as much as possible.

At the end of the hall.

When Guo Jia heard what Ying Yuan said, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

At this time, no one noticed him and Xun Yu and the others.

The latter lowered his voice and asked, "Fengxiao, it's already this time, why are you still laughing?"

Guo Jia said: "You don't understand. This is your majesty's method. Your majesty is truly wise."

"Why?" Xun You asked.

Xun Yu seemed to be thinking about something, as if he had guessed something.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "What do you think of your Majesty's magnanimity? In my opinion, your Majesty's magnanimity is as vast as the sea.

That day, I behaved improperly in front of His Majesty, but His Majesty not only did not blame me, but he also showed concern for me.
