Chapter 99 Ding~Your brother Wang applied to add you as a friend (please order first!)
Everything is lacking in the prison, but there is no shortage of accommodation.
Ying Chengyu directly opened a few 'single rooms' in the prison, and asked his soldiers to bring in bedding, and moved into the prison with Xia Wuji and Yunrou.
For ten days, Ying Chengyu did not leave the prison.
But the outside world is already turbulent.
Under Lu Buwei's deliberate concession, Tengfu successfully seized the position of Dianke, Yang Hu was also able to serve as Zuo Zhonglang, and thirty-one of Ying Chengyu's subordinates were given key positions that were not eligible to participate in the small court meeting. official position.
November 21, the ninth year of the reign of King Qin.
The sun rises as promised.
Ying Zheng opened his arms and let the palace maid change his clothes, and asked: "Is there any letter from the king's brother?"
Pi Guan shook his head: "There is no message from Chang'an Lord. Letters.”
Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
The threat posed by the alliance between Lu Buwei and Ying Chengyu is too great. If it were other kings, they would have taken action against Ying Chengyu!
But Ying Zheng is convinced that Ying Chengyu will not betray his trust.
So Ying Zheng has been watching the changes in the DPRK with a cold eye in recent days, waiting for Ying Chengyu's response.
Unfortunately, let alone responding, Ying Zheng couldn’t even see Ying Chengyu!
At such a sensitive moment, Ying Chengyu imprisoned himself in prison, which inevitably led to the suspicion that Ying Chengyu was deliberately avoiding Ying Zheng.
How can Ying Zheng be happy?
Speak up if you have something to say, don’t pull the black widow!
Ying Zheng's voice lowered a few degrees and continued to ask: "Has Brother Wang ever left prison?"
Pi Guan replied in a low voice: "Not yet."
"Mr. Chang'an is still torturing prisoners in the prison. As of midnight last night, seventy-one prisoners on death row have died, and another 352 prisoners on death row who were tortured by Mr. Chang'an are still alive."
“Yesterday morning, Cao Diansheng of Xianyang Prison notified all the county jails in Neishi County, ordering them to stop executing prisoners on death row and transfer all the prisoners on death row to Xianyang Prison.”
“The first batch last night. The prisoner on death row has been sent to Xianyang Prison."
After a pause, Pi Guan couldn't help but say: "Although the punishment of Chang'an Lord's torture of the prisoner will not lead to the death of the prisoner immediately, he will even ask Doctor Xia to take action. Treat the prisoners and change their dressings every day."
"But if the prisoners were allowed to choose, they would rather die from being torn apart by the car than to be tortured by Chang'an Jun."
"The candidate who was sent to prison by me to pretend to be a death row prisoner is now unconscious and just wants to die."
"The other candidate has not been tortured by Lord Chang'an, but he only listens to the wailing day and night. He was frightened, and he had been summoning his subordinates every day since three days ago, asking them to allow him to leave the prison even if he was demoted to a commoner. "
The ones sent by Pi Guan are the top candidates, and they can. He would die for Da Qin without any hesitation.
Pi Guan simply couldn’t imagine how cruel Ying Chengyuan must be to torture the prisoners before he could torture those two iron-clad warriors until life was worse than death!
Ying Zheng frowned and murmured: "What exactly does Brother Wang want?"
"Could it be that the battle to destroy Han really caused too much trauma to the king's brother, causing his character to change drastically?"
Ying Zheng asked himself that he knew Ying Chengyu very well.
Although Ying Chengyu behaved very toughly after the expedition, in Ying Zheng's eyes, Ying Chengyu had a gentleness and kindness that was incompatible with this world.
Whether Lu Buwei or Confucianism, they treat the capital of Guizhou well because treating the capital of Guizhou well is beneficial to the country and the country.
But Ying Chengyu is different.
Ying Chengyu really hopes that Qianshou will live a good life.
He actually treats Qian Shou as a human being!
It is hard for Ying Zheng to imagine that such a kind person would use the most cruel punishment to torture prisoners to satisfy his inner pleasure.
Pi Guan whispered: "I think Lord Chang'an might want to use this to taint himself and show the King that he has no contention for the throne?"
Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head: "Even if Brother Wang really wanted to taint himself, he would not use such means."
"And based on the trust between me and Brother Wang, Brother Wang should know that he doesn't need to taint himself at all."
The smile on his face remained, but Ying Zheng felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Ying Zheng cherishes this only relative who is still close to him.
Ying Zheng does not want Ying Chengxuan to use his tactics against him, but only hopes that Ying Chengxuan can come to the palace.
Ying Zheng served food and drinks, and Ying Cheng ate and drank. The two brothers sat down and had a good chat, resolving all conflicts candidly and sincerely.
Instead of... from brothers to kings and ministers!
The palace maid suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Your Majesty, please sit down first."
Ying Zheng was sitting on the soft couch. The palace maid hurriedly dipped some silk cloth into some pearl powder and applied it carefully. Rubbing it under Ying Zheng's eyes, it covered the dark circles under Ying Zheng's eyes and also covered up the haggard look on Ying Zheng's face.
Looking at the bronze mirror to make sure that no one would see any flaws, Ying Zheng said softly: "Go to court!"
Stepping up from the back door of the imperial study to the high platform, all the important ministers held their hands high. Call:
"Your Majesty, please pay your respects. Your Majesty, how do you do?"
Ying Zheng responded warmly: "I wish you all the best, please sit down." "Thank you, Your Majesty!" After bowing their hands and bowing again, the ministers sat down.
Smelling a slight salty smell, Lu Buwei asked in a low voice:
"The king has difficulty sleeping in recent days?"
Ying Zheng smiled warmly: "Excuse me, Father Zhong, for your concern. I have a good rest."
Lü Buwei glanced at Ying Zheng meaningfully and nodded gently: "Your Majesty, it is better to rest more. "
"After all, the king's free days are numbered."
Ying Zheng bowed slightly: "Thank you, Father Zhong, for reminding me."
Teng was speaking. The husband stood up, walked out of the queue, held up his hands, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, I advise you to make Han Ling the internal historian of the arsenal!"
Weiwei Huang Jie, Lang Zhongling Changyun and others immediately looked at Lu Buwei out of the corner of their eyes.
The position of internal history is different from the official positions such as Dianke and Bus Sima Ling.
This position is equivalent to Jing Zhaoyin in the Han Dynasty. He directly manages Xianyang City and surrounding areas, and has thousands of regular troops under his command.
Although this position is dispensable most of the time, at critical moments this position can determine the outcome!
Do you want to give up this position?
Lu Buwei obviously did not expect that Ying Chengyu would be so courageous and dare to reach out to such a sensitive official position.
Isn’t Ying Chengyu afraid that Ying Zheng will be suspicious of him?
Looking at the indifferent Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei shook his head gently.
Chang Yun immediately stood up and spoke loudly: "I have objections!"
"The place of internal history is where the capital of the country is located, and the position of internal history is a high position with a rank of two thousand stones."
"I think that Doctor Han is not capable of taking on this position."
"And Han The doctor was just promoted to the rank of arsenal officer nine days ago, but now he has not made any achievements, so why should he be promoted to internal history? "
Tengfu said seriously: "When Dr. Han was in Han Dynasty, he was the county magistrate of Nanyang County, with a rank of two thousand stones. , how can he be incompetent when compared to the rank of minister? "
"The rank of the arsenal is only 1,500 stones, which is far from that of the county prime minister, and it also prevents Doctor Han from displaying his talents."< br>
"Before returning to Qin, when I walked in South Korea, others called me 'Han Shangqing', but after returning to Qin, I was called 'Doctor Han'." Will you think carefully before surrendering, whether you want to harm yourself and enrich Qin? "Nine days ago, Teng was not a minister of Qin and was not qualified to give advice to the king."
"Now. Teng must be the one to advise the king." Teng Fu bowed his hand to Ying Zheng and said, "Only by being kind to the talents of other countries in the Qin Dynasty can we attract more talents to join us!"
Wei Wei Huang Jie stood up and refuted it! : "We, the Qin Dynasty, have always been kind to the talented people who care about the Qin Dynasty."
"The prime minister, the imperial censor, and the officials were all born in other countries. Talented people from all over the world should understand how our Qin Dynasty recruits scholars." The Qin Dynasty is the Qing Dynasty, and we, the Qin Dynasty, treat him kindly as a guest."
"How can Doctor Han be worthy of being an official with a rank of two thousand stones?"
Han Cang stood up tall. Opposite Huang Jie, he said in a serious voice: "Isn't it a credit to follow the army to destroy Xinzheng?"
"Doctor Xu Han, with his position as internal history, can be used to buy horse bones for a thousand gold!"
< br>
As he spoke, Han Cang was extremely excited.
Who knows!
For the past six months, Hancang had been alone in the court, fighting against the ministers alone.
Now he finally has a teammate!
Every court official stood up one after another, and two distinct parties formed in the court, arguing endlessly about the position of internal history.
Although the number of Lu Buwei's family is still much higher than that of Ying Chengyu's family, most of Ying Chengyu's family are new ministers who have just entered the Qin Dynasty. It is a time when fighting spirit is high, and for a while the two sides are evenly matched from the scene.
There was endless debate in the audience.
Lu Buwei kept paying attention to Ying Zheng from the corner of his eye on the stage.
Ying Chengyu’s counterattack method exceeded Lu Buwei’s expectations, but Lu Buwei’s goal had been achieved to some extent.
A normal king should be able to feel the threat posed by Ying Chengyu when he sees this scene in the audience, let alone Lu Buwei, who has an unknown enemy or friend sitting next to him.
Your Majesty, have you ever regretted obstructing the truth in the past ten days?
Now that the truth is still in place, you still have a chance!
Suddenly, Pi Guan entered the imperial study room from the back door with a short body.
After verification by Li Si and Zhao Gao, Pi Guan stepped onto the high platform, squatted beside Ying Zheng and spoke in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, Lord Chang'an suddenly sent a secret message to invite your Majesty. See you in prison.”
"At the same time, Lord Chang'an also invited Ying Xi, Ying Yu and other clan elders to go to the prison together."
At this moment, the sound of the leather pipe became extremely beautiful in Ying Zheng's ears.
As expected, my brother Wang is still thinking about me.
He re-sent a friend invitation to me!
