Fish swimming around the world

At this time, a letter from the Western Qin Empire was publicly released. The empress claimed that Ying Wuming was a traitor to the Qin State and was not worthy of being the king. The Qin State would never recognize him and asked the imperial court to withdraw the order.

The powerful Western Qin Empire's letter was as thunderous as thunder, and it denied it categorically. This was the real test for the imperial court and the Dian Kingdom.

The first to respond was Ying Wuming. He directly accused the empress of killing his father and brother, and that the throne was not legitimate and he was not qualified to represent the Qin State. He, Ying Wuming, did not need the empress's approval, and sternly stated that he would take back the Qin State.

This was really provocative, and the tense atmosphere was everywhere.

In the middle of the month, the empress issued another article, calling Ying Wuming a traitor. If he dared to claim the throne and establish a country, he would be punished.

The tense atmosphere escalated again. Countless people felt that this was the empress's highest vigilance against the only third brother who was qualified and now had the ability to compete for the kingship.

Soon, the imperial court spoke out, saying that Southern Xinjiang did not originally belong to the Great Zhou territory. Now that Ying Wuming led the Dian Kingdom to submit, it was indeed a meritorious service in expanding the territory. The empress was advised to give priority to the overall situation and approve it. At the same time, Ying Wuming was advised to put aside the past grudges and value peace now that he was an independent king and on par with the five countries.

Obviously, the imperial court was trying to smooth things over. The empress would never accept such words. She was even obviously angry. She immediately called 300,000 troops and marched straight to the Xia territory, asking for a passage to attack Dian.

The King of Xia was stunned. Damn! Why is it me again?

But this must not be agreed to. If you borrow, you still have to pay it back?

Facing the King of Xia's refusal, the empress waved her hand and marched straight to the Xia territory.

Just when the King of Xia was full of grief and indignation and dispatched troops, Zhang Yi found the imperial court. He promptly took out the armistice agreement signed by both parties not long ago and asked the imperial court to stop it.

The empress was somewhat reasonable this time and finally did not force the passage. But he took a detour and marched south directly. It seemed that he wanted to take a detour and pass through the three small countries in the southwest of the Great Zhou near Baiqu to enter Chu, and then threaten the southern border.

The three small countries were scared at that time and completely gave up asking Chu and Xia for help. They didn't even think about the imperial court. Of course, they probably knew that the imperial court would not be able to use it at all, so they directly submitted a surrender letter to the King of Zhennan of the Great Qin.

The King of Zhennan was originally sweeping across the southern border countries of Qin, and had almost conquered 60%. Now he picked up three countries for free and cleaned up about 80%. Qin expanded its territory to 4,000 miles, and the border extended 300 miles, directly bordering the Zanghai area, the Western Regions, and Chu.

The Queen's army had not yet arrived, and Qin and Chu had already bordered more than 100 miles in the northwest of Chu.

Of course, King Xiang could not agree to this situation. His temper exploded immediately and he directly ordered his troops to go to the northwest.

Fortunately, the imperial teacher Yu Qingcheng was relatively calm. She issued a letter severely reprimanding the empress's actions, saying that this was a threat to Chu. If they forced their way forward, the two countries would inevitably go to war.

At the same time, Ying Wuming, who was strong enough, was not afraid at all. He assembled a hundred thousand troops and moved towards the northwest of Chu, and he was actually ready to fight the empress.

The five countries were in an uproar. The war had just ended. Was it going to start again?

In the end, the imperial court came forward urgently and invited the three countries of Jin, Wei and Xia to jointly issue a letter, asking the three parties to calm down.

But the empress was not willing to listen. The third prince Ying Wuming also perfectly inherited the Ying family's aggressive talent and actually invited the empress to fight in the eastern Tibetan area.

The empress decisively led her troops. In the shock of the world, the two sides crossed the mountains and the plateau and faced each other in eastern Tibet at the end of February.

But because the road was too rugged, the armies of both sides did not arrive, and each led only 5,000 elite troops.

There was almost no nonsense when they met, and they started fighting directly.

In the end, the empress continued her undefeated myth and annihilated Ying Wuming's 5,000 elite troops in one battle. Fortunately, the Iron-faced Heavenly King retreated to southern Xinjiang under the protection of his personal guards, but the empress herself also suffered heavy losses and was unable to fight again, so she had to retreat to Western Qin.

Although Ying Wuming was defeated in this battle, he became the first person who could fight the empress alone with the same number of people. In particular, it was reported that this person actually fought the empress alone for hundreds of rounds and became famous.

So far, the world has confirmed that the Ying family siblings are absolutely mortal enemies.

However, no one knows that Ying Wuming led 5,000 Ying family army captives, while the empress replaced her own Qin army with the surrendered soldiers of the three countries in the border. Therefore, outsiders watched it with a thrilling feeling that it would not stop until death, but in fact, neither side suffered any loss.

Of course, on the surface, the empress is still the largest Ying family. Not only did she intimidate her younger brother in one battle, but she also occupied three large and small countries around it.

Will things end here? No one thought that the empress would have this kind of personality.

Just when everyone was guessing about the next step, Jiang Fan, the regent of Qin, finally spoke out, first appeased his wife, and then appeared in Yingdu, Chu, hoping to meet Ying Wuming as a special envoy of Qin under the witness of Chu.

So, on March 1, accompanied by Yu Qingcheng, the teacher of Chu, Regent Jiang Fan met with Iron-faced Heavenly King at the southern border of Chu.

It is said that the words were fierce at that time, and Ying Wuming even wanted to kill Jiang Xiaoyao. Fortunately, there was Xiang Chen, the king of Chu, to stop the fight.

However, in the end, the two sides also parted unhappily. Ying Wuming refused the persuasion of Qin and insisted on establishing a country. However, under the threat of Jiang Fan that the hidden prime minister of the Great Zhou had the right to overturn the imperial edict and decree, he was forced to agree to some of the conditions of Qin, and reduced his title of Qin and removed himself from Qin. So far, he nominally lost the title to compete for the throne of Qin again.

But everyone knows that this is just a temporary measure. The hatred between the two sides will erupt sooner or later.

At this point, Ying Wushuang, who won the war and plundered three small border countries, also temporarily stopped his actions under the persuasion of the emperor.

People think that this is inevitable. With Chu and Xia between them, it is almost impossible to really fight. The Queen's move is just to show her tyranny. It is enough to achieve the goal.

The dispute has been temporarily settled, and people are relieved. At this time, it is already the tenth day of March. There are still two days before the founding of the Dian Kingdom.

Yu Qingcheng kicked over the table in anger: "No wonder the king is so angry, I am about to explode!"

She stared at Jiang Fan, who was drinking leisurely, with her eyes spitting fire.

"Hey! Are you so calm?"

Jiang Fan put down his wine glass, "Sister, I know that Ying Wuming's move made Da Chu angry, but the trend is irresistible. Did Chu choose this time to go to war with him? It would be better to support Julu Gong in the beginning."

Yu Qingcheng cursed: "Bah! I am angry with Ying Wuming, but I am even more angry with you! Boy, what's wrong with your wife? If you want to fight, why do you have to borrow the passage of Da Chu?"

Jiang Fan knew that the empress took the opportunity to plunder, express her attitude, and create illusions, but in essence, she wanted to support Wuming to establish a country. However, the one who needed to be restrained the most at this time was the furious Xiang Chen.

Then there was only one way, to use a stronger force to oppress Chu and forcibly divert its attention from his brother-in-law.

Sure enough, the empress borrowed the passage of Da Chu, which immediately made Xiang Chen and Yu Qingcheng feel the crisis, temporarily suppressed the threat of southern Xinjiang, and had to come forward to organize negotiations between the two sides.
