My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Three days later.

Ying Chengyu was arranging military affairs in the Chinese army's tent, but the fortune teller raised the curtain and entered, cupping his hands and reporting:

"Master, the king and Lord Yangquan have sent messengers, and the steward Zhang Ming has also arrived in the army."

"Do you want a communication?"

Ying Chengyu's eyes flashed.

Ying Chengyu expected that Ying Zheng sent a messenger.

But Mr. Yangquan also sent a messenger, and Mrs. Han even sent the housekeeper?

Ying Chengyu felt that the development of the matter might be beyond his control, so he immediately said: "Send the message to Zhang Ming first!"

After a while, a rather elderly middle-aged man was helped in.

The first time he saw Ying Chengyu, Zhang Ming broke away from his soldiers and knelt on the ground:

"Greetings, young master!"

Ying Chengyu hurriedly helped him to the soft couch: "Steward Zhang, please get up quickly!"

"What happened, and why did Butler Zhang make a trip in person?"

Zhang Ming sighed helplessly: "After receiving the letter from the young master, my wife asked Han Shangqing to arrange more rumors according to the young master's instructions."

"It turned out that Han Shangqing had used this to gain an upper hand in the court."

"But just when Han Shangqing completed the investigation and returned to the court to launch an attack on the small court meeting, the prime minister suddenly ignored the matter and stopped mentioning it."

"I just said that it was against the law for the young master to kill Fan Yuqi for no reason. He did not submit an explanation afterwards, and he ignored the king's urging, which was against the law."

"The prime minister appointed the Nangong eunuch Cheng Lao Ai to lead an army of 200,000 to attack the young master!"

Ying Chengqiao laughed: "The reason is so ridiculous!"

Fan Yuqi's evidence of crime, Ying Chengyu, had long been sent to Xianyang City.

Of course, this is not important. As long as Lu Buwei says that the evidence has not been sent, then there is no evidence even if Ying Chengxuan sends 10,000 pieces of evidence.

But the problem is that Fan Yuqi died seven days ago, and the order to send troops was issued four days ago.

Unless it was a general like Ying Chengyu who had prepared early, which general could collect the evidence and send it to Xianyang City within three days?

Even if Lu Buwei hid the evidence of Ying Chengyu's crime and sent it back, Lu Buwei's reason for sending troops was too weak to withstand scrutiny.

Zhang Ming shouted loudly: "The ministers are furious! Many generals came forward to defend the young master!"

"However, the Prime Minister has decided this, and the King has not said a word. Even if the ministers try to remonstrate with him, it will have no effect."

Zhang Ming cupped his hands bitterly: "I am the one who is incompetent!"

Ying Chengyu shook his head and smiled: "There is no need to blame yourself, you have helped me a lot."

"At least let that rumor become less powerful, so no one will think that I am criticizing the legal system of my eldest brother's succession."

"It is better to send troops for an untenable reason than to send troops for the reason of my rebellion."

Ying Chengyu's response finally worked.

If he is charged with treason, even if Ying Chengyu flees to another country and then returns to Da Qin, his reputation will be difficult to wash away.

And if Ying Chengyu doesn't respond, will there really be no rift in the relationship between Ying Zheng and Ying Chengyu?

Ying Chengyu didn't want to think deeply, so he just asked the key question: "When will the army go out?"

Zhang Ming finally showed a smile: "Lao Ai was impatient and wanted to go on an expedition immediately, but was stopped by Han Shangqing."

"Han Shangqing said that there is no grain in Dacang in Xianyang and there is no grain in Dacang in Hangu. If you want to go on an expedition, you need to procure grain from the Bashu granary."

"But the road between Bashu and Xianyang City is long and difficult. It will take at least two months to collect sufficient grain and grass."

"It seems that the young master has already considered this, so he specially ordered Han Shangqing to prepare an excess amount of food in advance, so that the rear army will have no food and grass to start the journey!"

Ying Chengyu subconsciously wanted to refute.

I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense.

I was just afraid that the court would cut off my food and supplies, but I never thought that this act of self-protection would actually hinder the pursuit of the pursuers.

However, there was no need to refute, Ying Chengyu just continued to ask: "What does the mother-in-law mean?"

Zhang Ming bowed his hands to Ying Chengyu and said, "Madam, please humbly protect the young master and help him escape from Qin."

"The relationship between the other six countries has been smoothed. No matter which country the young master goes to, there will be someone to support him."

"I humbly come here and bring all the riches of the Chang'an Lord's Mansion for the young master's use."

"In the future, I will be at the young master's side and be driven by the young master."

After Ying Chengyu was silent for a few breaths, he asked with difficulty: "Concubine, I have a death wish?!"

Zhang Ming sighed and nodded: "Ever since the young master went to war, my wife has been determined to die."

"Madam also humbly advises the young master not to tie his hands and feet for the sake of Madam's life."

"As long as the young master is healthy, my wife will be at peace!"

Although Ying Chengyu had known Mrs. Han's plan for a long time, he still felt that his chest was extremely depressed at this moment, and his heart was so heavy that it seemed like it was about to fall into his belly.

Even Ying Zheng may have interest disputes with him in the future, and they need to rely on family ties to mediate.

But only Mrs. Han.

Her interests will always be consistent with Ying Chengyu's, and she will always love Ying Chengyu deeply and be willing to pay any price for Ying Chengyu!

Taking a deep breath, Ying Chengqiao said in a gentle voice: "Steward Zhang has worked hard all the way, and I think he is exhausted."

"Go and rest first."

After sending Zhang Ming away, Ying Chengyu opened Mrs. Han's letter.

Touching the deep or shallow scratches with his fingers, Ying Chengyu seemed to be able to feel the full love and ease with which Mrs. Han wrote this letter.

That is the freedom and ease of putting life and death aside!

After a long time, Ying Chengxuan put away his family letter, raised his head and said, "Please send a message from Mr. Yangquan."

Soon, a strong man walked into the big tent with a dragon-like stride, bowed his hands and saluted: "The soldiers under Yangquan Jun's command are very long, Xiong Meng. I pay my respects to Mr. Chang'an."

Ying Chengqiao raised his hand slightly: "No courtesy, I will give you a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" In response, Xiong Meng did not sit down, but stepped forward with a bamboo slip in both hands: "This is the handwriting of the Queen Mother Huayang. Please read it."

After verifying the clay-seal letter, Ying Chengyu unfolded the bamboo slips, and lines of beautiful calligraphy came into view.

Xiong Meng explained from the side: "The Queen Mother is determined to send troops, and the Queen Mother Huayang is powerless to stop it."

"I am hereby ordered to lead ten of my own soldiers to protect you as you go to the Kingdom of Chu."

"The Empress Dowager Huayang and Lord Yangquan have made arrangements in Chu State. Lord Changping and Lord Changwen have jointly reported to the King of Chu. The King of Chu is willing to grant fifty miles of Chu land to the title of Lord Chang'an."

Fifty miles does not sound like much, but after all, it is a territory that really exists in the Chu region, and it can actually obtain tax revenue, which was actually very rare during the Warring States period.

For example, the State of Zhao also had a Lord Chang'an, and his fiefdom was also Chang'an Township.

But Chang'an Township is in the hinterland of the Qin Dynasty. Unless the State of Zhao destroys the State of Qin, the fiefdom of the Lord Chang'an will be in vain and he will be just a titleholder in name only.

Compared with the first time the Queen Mother Huayang lobbied, the conditions this time can be said to be very good.

But Ying Chengyu still didn't respond, and just smiled warmly: "I know the intentions of the Queen Mother and Lord Yangquan very well!"

"Eight husband, Xiong Shichang has been working hard for a long time. Xiong Shichang will go take a bath and change clothes first."

Xiong Meng bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, sir!"

"I hope you will make plans in advance."

"Once the imperial court's official message arrives in the army, it will be difficult for your Majesty to escape."

Ying Chengyu nodded slightly: "I will think more about it."

The purpose of the Queen Mother Huayang's messenger was not beyond Ying Chengyu's expectation, and Ying Chengyu did not waste any time and summoned the last messenger.

Soon, a young man with fair skin and elegance like jade walked into the big tent and held his hands in greeting:

"Your Majesty's messenger, Mengshi Mengyi, pays homage to your Majesty!"

Ying Cheng was slightly surprised: "Meng's family, Meng Yi? Meng Tian's younger brother?"

Meng Yi was also surprised.

For a long time, others have called him Meng Ao's grandson, or Meng Wu's son, and few people have called him Meng Tian's younger brother.

Meng Yi, who has admired Meng Tian since he was a child, raised the corners of his mouth by 5°, straightened his back, and bowed his hands: "Mr. Meng is my brother."

"This time I got the opportunity to deliver the message, it was my brother who recommended me to the king!"

At this point, Meng Yi realized what he was here for, and hurriedly presented a bamboo slip with both hands: "The king's handwriting is here, please read it."

After taking the bamboo slips and opening the mud seal, Ying Zheng's handwriting came into view.

[Order: Ying Cheng, Lord of Chang'an, fled falsely and went to the six kingdoms. He would return when the king ordered him to summon him. On the 15th day of the ninth month of the Qin Dynasty. 】

[Qin Wang Zheng (Seal)]

Meng Yi explained from the side: "The king has agreed with the Queen Mother Huayang and Mrs. Han to block food and grass and delay Lao Ai's troops."

"The shortest I can buy you is two months."

"Your Majesty hopes that your Majesty can use these two months to arrange the army and go to other countries for temporary refuge."

"When the king takes charge of the government, I will call you back to the country!"

Ying Chengyu asked thoughtfully: "By allowing Lao Ai to send troops to attack me, what benefits does the eldest brother gain?"

Ying Chengyu said it too directly, and Meng Yi gave a somewhat difficult answer:

"The Queen Mother has sent a handwritten letter saying that the King has become an adult and should be crowned to encourage him."

Ying Chengyu happily asked: "When is the crown scheduled to be crowned?"

Meng Yi hurriedly handed over his hand: "Next year I will be alone!"

Ying Chengyu murmured softly: "Will you be alone next year?"

After thinking for a long time, Ying Chengyu finally made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Tell Brother Wang."

"I will attack South Korea!"
