Chapter 799 This is a matter of attitude! The king died in the country, the method of Qi Wangjian!
The corners of Ying Zheng’s mouth that had just been raised lowered in an instant, and his voice sank again: “Please make it clear to Marquis Wenxin!”
At this moment, Ying Zheng was quite contented.
Ying Zheng is also quite proud of his achievements.
Ying Zheng admits that there are indeed many problems in Da Qin today, but Ying Zheng believes that these problems will only cause local turbulence at best and will never endanger the Da Qin community.
If not for the purpose of clearing up the chaos in a shorter period of time and accumulating greater strength to complete the great cause of unification, Ying Zheng would not be willing to ask Lu Buwei to return to the court.
Now as soon as Lu Buwei stepped into the court, he twice said that the Qin Dynasty would be destroyed, and even vaguely described Ying Zheng as the king of subjugation.
How could Ying Zheng be happy?
Lü Buwei did not restrain himself due to Ying Zheng's attitude. Instead, he sat up straight and spoke in a deep voice: "As far as I know, a vision of Handan City was transmitted to Linzi City ten days ago."
“For this reason, King Jian of Qi summoned alchemists and shamans to the court, and it seems that he intended to carry out large-scale sacrifices.”
"After the Prime Minister of Qi won, he went to the palace to lobby King Jian of Qi, saying that Qin's destiny lies with Qin, and Qin will eventually replace Zhou."
"Later, King Jian of Qi announced in court that he would set off to the west."
"Join Qin and become a minister!"
Ying Zheng said quietly: "The court has also received this news."
"I also discussed this matter with all my beloved ministers yesterday. ”
"Although it is a great joy for the State of Qi to join the Qin State as a minister, we, the Qin Dynasty, are already stretched to manage the current territory and are really unable to manage the territory of the State of Qi."
"So I want to refuse the request of the State of Qi to become a minister for the time being. "
"Qin and Qi will continue to maintain an alliance, and we will not take over Qi's territory until Da Qin has rectified its internal affairs."
Wei Liao, Wei Zhuang and other ministers also agreed. nod.
Although the ministers of the Qin Dynasty also coveted the territory of Qi, they hoped to use it to promote the great cause of unification without spending a single soldier.
But today, the territory of Da Qin has far exceeded the limit of Da Qin's management capabilities.
No matter how greedy the monarchs and ministers of Qin were, they could only refuse Qi Wangjian’s request.
Ying Zheng couldn't help but raise his voice a little higher: "Although I have great ambitions, I know that our country, the Qin Dynasty, will not act too hastily, let alone quick success."
"Wen Lord Xin, you are too worried!"
Lu Buwei's smile became a little more kind: "I never think that the king is a king who is eager for quick success."
"I believe that the king will never be fooled by the petty gains in front of him and thus ignore the real threat."
Lu Buwei still has some confidence in the king he has trained.
Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "In that case, why did Marquis Wenxin mention this matter?"
Lu Buwei suppressed his smile and said solemnly: "I have received the news."
"When the King of Qi built Yongmen, Sima Hengji of Yongmen knelt down and asked: Are you establishing a king for the country? Are you establishing a king for the king?"
"King Jian of Qi replied: For She Ji."
"Sima Yongmen asked again: To establish a king for She Ji, why did the king leave She Ji and enter Qin?"
"Qi Wang Jian bowed his hand in worship and returned The car turned against me!"
Li Xin muttered dissatisfiedly: "The one who said he wanted to be a minister is the King of Qi, and the one who came to the city gate and refused to be a minister is also the King of Qi."
"The king of Qi is bullying me, the Qin Dynasty?"
"When the day comes, I will personally conquer Linzi City, so that the King of Qi will know that we, the Qin Dynasty, cannot be bullied!"
Many officials of the Qin State felt like Li Xin.
Although they know that the current Qin Dynasty is unable to manage the territory of Qi State, even if Qi Wang Jian really comes to Qin State, Qin State will still not agree to Qi Wang Jian's request.
But whether Da Qin accepts it or not is our business, and whether you want me to be my minister or not is your business.
Is it because I, the Qin Dynasty, will definitely not accept your invitation as a minister, so you won’t ask me to be my minister?
This is a matter of attitude!
Wang Jian shook his head and said solemnly: "This is by no means as simple as going back on one's word."
"King Qi is probably acting!"
Li Xinwei was startled: " Acting?"
Wang Jian nodded slowly: "Play a play from "The Book of Rites""
"Book of Rites: Qu Li" says: When a king goes to his country, he stops and says: 'How can I go to Sheji? ’ The doctor said, ‘How can I go to the ancestral temple? ’ The scholar said, ‘How can I go to the tomb? ’, the king will die for the country, the officials will die for the people, and the scholars will die for the system!
The king wanted to go into exile in another country, but his subordinates stopped him and said: 'How can we abandon the country? ’ When the doctor wanted to go to another country, he stopped him and said, ‘How can you abandon the ancestral temple that worships your ancestors! ’ When the scholar was about to go to another country, he stopped him and said, ‘How can you abandon the tombs of your ancestors? ’.
The king should die defending the country, the officials should live and die with the soldiers, and the soldiers should die executing the king's orders!
Qi Wangjian was openly asked by Yongmen Sima when he was at Yongmen: Why go to Sheji.
Qi Wangjian thanked him and returned to the palace.
Anyone who has read can think of the "Book of Rites" through the exchange between Qi Wangjian and Yongmen Sima, and then understand that Qi Wangjian has made preparations for the death of the king.
Under the system of Zhou Rites, "the emperor guards the country, the king dies for the country" never exists in isolation!
When King Jian of Qi stated that he would die for the country, could the officials and scholars of Qi dare to live and die with the soldiers of Qi, or die executing King Qi's order? ! Ying Zheng no longer felt complacent, only solemnity remained: "The King of Qi cannot compete with the power of the Qi Dynasty, so he pretended that he would like to be my minister of the Great Qin."
"The King of Qi would like to be my minister." Once the news of the incident spreads out of the palace, people who are unwilling to surrender to Qin will definitely gather at the palace gate."
"The King of Qi can use this to overcome the barriers of Qi's courtiers, promote his ambitions in public, and attract like-minded people to actively enter the palace to help!"
Ying Zheng had no choice but to build this for the King of Qi. Admire the strategy.
When Qi Wangjian was almost completely ignored by Hou Sheng, Qi Wangjian gained the opportunity to leave the palace by pretending to compromise.
Then he firmly seized this opportunity and openly announced to the people of Qi that he would die in Sheji!
A good move is to retreat in order to advance!
It's good to put him to death with one hand and then live again!
Ying Zheng sighed with emotion: "If everyone's prediction is right, there will be many righteous people entering Linzi, right?"
For the land of Qilu where Confucianism prevails, Qi Wangjian's move is really It's so romantic!
The monarch is already prepared to die in the country. How can the scholar-bureaucrats who have read the classics of the sages let the monarch die alone!
The class of scholar-bureaucrats who sit back and watch their kings die while they live an ignoble existence are not worthy of calling themselves Confucian disciples!
Lu Buwei nodded and said: "Confucian scholars from all over Qi State gathered in Linzi City, and thousands of nobles and nobles knelt outside Wu Palace to ask to see the King of Qi."
"Jimo doctor Tian Yu even ordered 30,000 troops, and rushed to Linzi City at starry night .”
“Doctor Kuang Yong of Ju also sent 20,000 troops to Linzi City.”
“Calculating the time, Dr. Kuang Du will arrive in Linzi City today, and Dr. Tian Dou will arrive tomorrow. Arrive at Linzi City.”
Listening to Lu Buwei’s words, the hearts of the monarchs and ministers of Qin all sank.
Jucheng and Jimo are two of the five capitals of Qi.
The two capital officials leading their troops to Linzi City at the same time not only represented that two parts of Qi State expressed their loyalty to Qi Wangjian, but also represented that two of the five capital troops would be used by Qi Wangjian!
Although the soldiers and horses of Jucheng suffered a lot of losses in the battle between Qin and Qi to destroy Chu, they were trained into elite soldiers as a result.
As for the Jimo soldiers and horses... Tian Danke once led the Jimo soldiers and horses to revive the country as a Jimo doctor!
Ying Zheng immediately asked in a deep voice: "Brother Wang once joined forces with Dr. Kuangdu to destroy Chu."
"What do you think, Brother Wang, of Doctor Kuangdu?"
After Ying Chengyu pondered for a moment, he replied seriously: "In terms of ability, Doctor Kuangdu is not as good as General Jian and General Ben of the Qin Dynasty. Several generals, but they are better than ordinary generals."
"When it comes to character, he lives up to Kuang Zhang's bloodline."
"If Qin and Qi fight in the future, Kuang Zhang will probably fight to the end. !”
“As for Dr. Tian Du’s ability, I don’t know much about it”
"But I know that this person is a rare militant in the Qi State. When he enters Linzi this time, he will definitely support the King of Qi in resisting the Qin Dynasty, and even advise the King of Qi to take the initiative to send troops to the Qin Dynasty."
Listen to Ying Chengyu After the introduction, the ministers of Great Qin felt even heavier.
Wang Jian and Wang Ben, father and son, even covered their faces with their hands, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to slip in so as not to attract the attention of others.
Ying Chengxuan continued: "In addition to Doctor Tiandu and Doctor Kuangdu, I think there is one more person that I need to pay attention to."
"Gaotang Doctor Lu Zhe!"
"My brother thinks that this person is probably also a warrior."
Later generations thought that Qi surrendered without a fight.
What future generations think is right!
But surrendering without a fight does not mean that Qi does not want to fight.
In the original history, although Dr. Jimo persuaded Qi Wangjian to take the initiative to send troops, Qi Wangjian vetoed it. However, at the end of Qin's process of destroying the Six Kingdoms, Qi Wangjian had been increasing troops to Gaotang.
After the fall of the Yan State, the Qi State even stationed its main troops on the front line of Gaotang, always ready to resist Qin's attack!
The reason why Qi surrendered without a fight was entirely because the main force of the Qin army bypassed the main force of the Qi army and took advantage of the emptiness in the rear of Qi to directly surround Linzi City with heavy troops!
If the Qin army failed to successfully raid Linzi City, Ying Chengyu had no doubt that a bloody battle would break out between the Qin army and the Qin army.
The leader of the Qi army in this bloody battle may be Lu Zhe, the Gaotang doctor!
Hearing what Ying Chengyu said, even Lu Buwei had a serious look on his face: "Doctor Lu Du is always cautious in his words and deeds, and does not get involved in the affairs of the court. I don't know that Dr. Lu Dou is also in charge of the war. ”
"Gaotang is also one of the five capitals of Qi!"
"If Dr. Lu Du also takes the lead in the battle, the King of Qi can mobilize nearly half of Qi's troops in one fell swoop!"
Lu Buwei Si He was frightened, and his voice became more cautious: "Your Majesty!"
"I think King Qi is different from the queen. Qin Jin is not firm in his heart, but is mostly coerced by Qi Chen. "
"Now the King of Qi ascends to the throne and shouts, and half of the soldiers and horses in Qi follow him, probably not just to hold the throne."
"I believe that the only ally of our Great Qin may also become the enemy of our Great Qin."
"If the three kingdoms of Qi, Dai, and Yan join forces to attack our Great Qin."
"Our Great Qin How to resist? ”
The expressions of Ying Zheng and the officials of Da Qin all darkened, and the joy just now disappeared.
Qi State has money, food, equipment, and hundreds of thousands of young men who can join the army. Dai State has frontier veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles and Wu'an Lord Li Mu. Yan State... can also involve some of Qin's troops. .
If Qi, Yan, and Dai declare an alliance, they will launch a surprise attack on Da Qin with Li Mu as the commander-in-chief of the alliance.
Da Qin, how to resist!
