Chapter 15 The Many Faces of Ying Zheng



Now that His Majesty is gone, the remnants of the six kingdoms will probably take action immediately, but I don't know if the Huns can see it. He still has to stay at the Great Wall to prevent the Huns from attacking.

As soon as Meng Tian finished speaking, a dragon tail special effect commentary unique to Ying Zheng appeared on the screen.

Qin Shi Huangdi: [Fusu returns to Xianyang, Meng Tian guards the Great Wall.]

But Ying Zheng would not just arrange these, he had other arrangements, but they were not suitable to be stated directly in front of others, so he turned his attention to the private message Zhou Jia sent him.

He fumbled around for a while, and finally, he simply figured out how to send this private message. He immediately sent his subsequent arrangements to Zhou Jia and asked her to contact the officials of the Qin Dynasty.

At the same time, Zhou Jia's backstage was bombarded with private messages from emperors in various time and space. The private chat function could only be used by Zhou Jia for the time being. She took the trouble to let the system send the messages sent by Ying Zheng to the relevant personnel in a group.

I continued to tell the story of Ying Zheng.

"In general, Ying Zheng had both merits and faults in his life. He was often criticized by many and defended by many. However, whenever the country was divided, people eagerly hoped that another person like Ying Zheng would appear. He never let the Qin Dynasty down and truly fulfilled the mission of a king.

Now let's talk about some interesting things about Ying Zheng. In the eyes of many people, Ying Zheng seems to be a domineering, ruthless and indifferent image, but if you get to know him better, you will find that there is actually a playful side to his character.

Zhou Jia's smile gradually became distorted. "As everyone knows, as the man who destroyed the six kingdoms, Ying Zheng has always been a thorn in the eyes of many people, so he has encountered countless assassinations in his life. The most famous of these, besides the Bolingsha assassination planned by Zhang Liang, is the assassination by Jing Ke advocated by Prince Dan of Yan. The phrase 'the picture is finally revealed' comes from the story of Jing Ke's assassination. In this story, there is a special person who received praise and confession from Ying Zheng, and this person is Xia Wuqie, one of Ying Zheng's medical officers.

So what exactly is going on? Prince Dan of Yan sent the assassin Jing Ke to assassinate Emperor Ying Zheng. When Jing Ke and his companions met Ying Zheng, they approached him under the pretext of presenting him with a map and pointed a dagger hidden under the map at him. Because his majesty's sword was too long to pull out, and the Qin Dynasty stipulated that court officials could not carry weapons to court, the frontline battle was left to Ying Zheng and Jing Ke. The remaining court officials watched anxiously from the sidelines, shouting to remind the majesty to carry the sword, but Jing Ke kept chasing him. At this time, Xia Wuqie showed his effectiveness!

Xia Wuqie was a medical officer, so he carried a medicine box. To save His Majesty, he threw his medicine box onto Jing Ke, giving His Majesty the opportunity to draw his sword and strike back. After dealing with Jing Ke, Ying Zheng said to Xia Wuqie, "Wuqie loves me."

Zhou Jia smiled, "A man who has received a confession from His Majesty. I want to hear it too~"

Zhou Jia didn't dare to say the last sentence out loud, and could only whisper it secretly.

Qin

Ying Zheng's eyelids twitched when he heard this. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence at first, but when Zhou Jia said "No one loves me", he felt it was a bit outrageous. The ministers below wanted to laugh when they heard Zhou Jia's words, but they didn't dare to laugh. However, they silently added in their hearts that they also wanted to laugh.

Chinese

Liu Che was a little surprised. "Just saying 'Wu Qie loves me' can have such great power?"

He thought for a moment and said, "Zhongqing Qubing also loves me, so I can say this."

I don't understand what's the point of this.

Liu Che couldn't figure it out, but Zhou Jia had other things to say: "Besides this sentence, there is another sentence that we later generations often use to make fun of Your Majesty and his ancestor Yingji. We often compare these two people with a smile, and then you will find that these two people are really very different.

As we all know, Yingji had a capable minister and general named Bai Qi, known as the "Man-Slayer," who killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers. Similarly, Ying Zheng also had a capable assistant named Wang Jian, who was a key figure in helping him conquer the world. While Qin conquered the six states, Wang Jian single-handedly conquered five. Both served as the monarch's right-hand man, yet their fates were profoundly different.

Zhou Jia did not elaborate on Bai Qi's fate, but Bai Qi sensed something was wrong in her words, and so did Ying Ji. However, they were all smart people and did not bring this matter to light for the time being.

Zhou Jia continued:

In 260 BC, King Zhaoxiang of Qin, Yingji, decided to attack the State of Zhao. However, Bai Qi felt that the time was not right, so he feigned illness and stayed away. Yingji insisted on ordering Wang Ling and others to attack the State of Zhao, but they were defeated.

There was no other way, so Yingji could only go to Baiqi's house in person and hope that Baiqi would come out of retirement. Baiqi was still unwilling, so Yingji said this:

"Even though you are ill, please lie down and go for me. If you are successful, I will reward you. If you are not, I will hate you." In short, Bai Qi still did not make a move, and Yingji was disappointed with Bai Qi.

The same scene happened to Ying Zheng and Wang Jian.

In 224 BC, Ying Zheng wanted to send troops to attack the State of Chu, so he asked himself how many people were needed in the fish pond, no, how many people were needed from his generals. Li Xin said 200,000 were needed, and Wang Jian said 600,000 were needed. So His Majesty let Li Xin go, and Wang Jian went home on the pretext of illness.

But soon, news of Li Xin's defeat arrived from the front lines. With no other choice, Ying Zheng, like his ancestors, went to look for his SSR, saying with particular grievance: "I have heard that the troops of Jing are advancing westward every day. General, although you are ill, can you bear to abandon me?" What he meant was that he had heard that the troops of Chu were advancing westward every day. General, although you are ill, can you really bear to abandon me?

Like Yingji, Ying Zheng was rejected by Wang Jian at first, but Ying Zheng had a very good attitude and responded to Wang Jian's every request. He gave Wang Jian 600,000 troops and also gave him fields, houses, forests and other things. The main thing he did was to be obedient. Wang Jian did not disappoint His Majesty and successfully conquered the State of Chu.

Don't ask about the specifics of these missions; we'll talk about their deeds later when we talk about the generals. For now, we'll just talk about these two things. It's clear that Yingji and Bai Qi both have low emotional intelligence, while Your Majesty and Wang Jian both have high emotional intelligence."

She couldn't help laughing when she said this, "It feels like being His Majesty's subject, I can hear His Majesty's coquettish confessions from time to time, and I can also see his lovely side.

It is said that when His Majesty was offering sacrifices to heaven and earth on Mount Tai, he encountered a heavy rain and took shelter under a pine tree. When the storm passed, His Majesty believed that the tree had done a great service in shielding him from the wind and rain, so he named it the Wu Dafu Pine. We now call it the Wu Dafu Pine.

There is also a story about Diaoling Pass. This story is a bit domineering, but also a bit tender. Hahahaha."
