The younger brother of the First Emperor

Chapter 170: Zichu miscalculated! Bai Qi refused to fight!
The four countries advanced together, adding a ray of dry wood to the extinguishing fire in Zhang Liang's heart, and the flames started again.

Zhang Liang followed suit and stood behind Prince Chengjiao.

Seeking fortune and avoiding disaster has been written into the instinct of Koreans.

"Rebellious son." Qin Prince Chu said angrily to his second son with a gloomy face: "You are my son! You actually united the five kingdoms to attack me! Are you a son?"

Young Master Chengjiao remained calm, but his aura dropped by three points, and the coercion in his eyes was much less:
"War is not what I want, but what you, my father, want.

"I am here not for conquest, but for justice!"

"Just like you, my father, conquered the State of Yan and saved me for moral reasons."

Qin Wang Zichu glared angrily and said:
"You still know that your life was saved by me?
"I gave birth to you, raised you, and saved you, yet you repay me like this. Is there anyone like you in this world?"

Then he looked at Yan State Prime Minister Ju Wu, who looked puzzled:
“I don’t understand.

"Why would Yan be willing to help this young man who brought disaster to Yan to conquer Qin?

"Please ask the envoy Yan to come and solve my doubts."

Ju Wu lowered his head slightly, so as not to let the King of Qin see the anger in his eyes and to prevent the King of Qin from finding a reason to attack Yan.

Originally, he also blamed Prince Chengjiao for the disaster that Yan State suffered.

Without Prince Chengjiao, the King of Qin would have no excuse to attack Yan, and Yan would not have become the target of public criticism and bullied by other countries.

But after the one-eyed messenger sent by Prince Chengjiao arrived in Ji and expressed his needs, Ju Wu no longer thought so.

The young man in front of him was a true gentleman who only stood on the side of morality.

The young man was used by the princes.

The State of Yan violated morality, and the young man targeted the State of Yan.

The Qin State violated morality, and the young people targeted the Qin State.

The boy is fair.

But, the Qin State is not like that, and the King of Qin is not like that.

Since the young man cannot be blamed, the fall of the State of Yan must be placed on the head of Prince Chu of Qin.

A feeling of resentment rose from Ju Wu's heart and flowed out of his mouth.

He lowered his head, and when he spoke, his mouth could not be seen moving, but only his voice could be heard:
"Wu was incomprehensible to the King of Qin's words.

"My lord, you are the Prime Minister of Yan State. When did you bring disaster to our country?
"Our country was defeated in the war against Zhao because the king was deceived by Li Fu and launched this unethical war.

“An unjust war should be considered a defeat.

"The traitor Li Fu died in battle, and my king was deceived by the general and took his anger out on the prime minister, and did something immoral.

“Those who violate morality should be punished.

"This punishment was brought upon the king himself. The king even issued a public notice to the world. The prime minister did nothing wrong."

Ju Wu put emphasis on the word "announcement" and his anger was about to burst through his head.

It was this announcement that caused Prince Xi of Yan to completely lose the support of the people, and no one dared to speak out against him anymore.

And he, Ju Wu, was planning to ask King Xi of Yan to step down and let the crown prince ascend the throne in advance in order to break the deadlock and save Yan.

The envoy sent by Prince Chu of Qin arrived in Ji and brought the news that Prince Dan of Yan was being held hostage in Qin.

King Xi of Yan held Prince Dan of Yan as a hostage in Qin, and there was no one left in Yan who could inherit the throne.

Ju Wu watched the State of Yan decline, but was unable to do anything.

And this is all Qin's evil scheme!
He kept reminding himself to stay calm and not let the King of Qin see his anger. He continued in a steady voice:
"The King of Qin also said that our country would attack the State of Qin. Didn't the Prime Minister just explain it to the King of Qin? When did our country say that it would take the initiative to attack the State of Qin?

"We five countries stand together for the lives of the people in Guanzhong, not for war.

“Although the people of Guanzhong are people of the world, they are more Qin people.

"Even foreigners like us can't stand seeing the people of Guanzhong suffer from floods every year, so how can the King of Qin stand by it?

"The King of Qin doesn't need to ask about each country one by one.

“Those who are righteous have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous have few.

“We five countries came together for moral reasons.

"The King of Qin has lost his moral integrity, so he is naturally alone.

"The King of Qin should also stand on the side of morality, just like he did to make our King follow morality some time ago and stand with us.

"Use Zheng Guo to control water, dig canals and divert water to benefit Guanzhong."

After saying this in one breath, Ju Wu felt very happy. It was time for the Qin State to have a taste of morality!
After trying his best to control his facial expression, he couldn't wait to look up at King Qin's expression.

Seeing that Qin Wang Zichu's face was a little distorted, if it weren't for the wrong occasion, he would really laugh out loud.

[You, King Qin, have also suffered this day!]
[You will also be trapped by morality!]
[Please understand how Yan State felt back then!]
Qin Wang Zichu narrowed his eyes, supported himself on the table, and slowly stood up, saying:
"Are you all not afraid of death?"

He drew out the Qin King's sword hanging at his waist, swung the sword through the air, and there was a sudden sound.

The tip of Qin Prince Chu's sword passed over Prince Chengjiao and pointed at the people behind him, with murderous intent in his eyes:
"Have you heard the emperor's wrath?

"When the emperor gets angry, millions of people will die!

"Go back to your respective countries and stop messing around with this brat!
"Otherwise, I will kill you first, and then send troops to attack your country! Let your country bleed!"

The Qin generals in the hall were extremely excited. They repeated the words of Qin Prince Chu and loudly echoed their king:
"I will kill you first, and then I will send troops to attack your country! Let your country bleed!"

"I will kill you first, and then I will send troops to attack your country! Let your country bleed!"

"I will kill you first, and then I will send troops to attack your country! Let your country bleed!"

"..."

The murderous aura was earth-shaking.

The Qin generals were collectively excited without any warning. This sudden scene made the envoys of the five countries' hearts skip a beat. The face of Li Yuan, the envoy of Chu, turned pale.

At that time, no country could bear the wrath of Qin alone.

This is the consensus achieved by Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an, with his undefeated record throughout his life and the lives of millions of soldiers from various countries!
The Qin warriors are invincible!
Ying Chengjiao was not surprised, as he knew these Qin generals too well.

According to the words of the previous life, the Qin generals were the most radical hawks.

After suffering so many assassination attempts, Ying Chengjiao had a deeper understanding of the Qin generals.

His previous assessment of the Qin general's radicalism was still too conservative.

This time he did not stop the generals, waiting for Qin to slowly calm down.

Bie Gong helped him once, which had already angered everyone.

If he continued to help Master Chengjiao, the old general would lose his integrity in his old age, and Master Chengjiao could not bear it.

If he doesn't help, then Master Chengjiao, who is not good at speaking, will lose his prestige, and his subsequent words will inherently lack five points of strength.

No matter how high the wave is, it will eventually fall, and the Qin generals' calls will gradually cease.

Prince Chengjiao was ready to speak when Tang Ju, the envoy of Wei, whispered behind him:

"The Prime Minister is a gentleman, and Tang Ju is not a villain. Our country is the country that values ​​morality the most.

“When Xiangbang was trapped, my king was furious and was ready to send troops.

"The Prime Minister has done so many things for the sake of morality, and since Ju is not here, I will not talk about the previous things.

"Ju is standing behind the Prime Minister right now, how can we let the Prime Minister stand alone?

"Please take a break, Prime Minister, and let Ju come. Ju also understands some principles."

The young man turned around and looked at Tang Ju's face.

Tang Ju smiled back.

Tang Ju was born with a gentle face, like a good gentleman. This smile made him look even more harmless. He didn't look like someone who could handle the intense scene before him.

But Ying Chengjiao knew people not only by appearance but also by historical records.

"Then thank you very much, sir." The young man said sincerely.

It would be better for Tang Ju to come forward than for him to do so, as it would allow his father to see the determination of the five countries.

Tang Ju bowed slightly and whispered:

"This is Tang Ju's honor."

Before the sound in the hall completely disappeared, a fierce look flashed in Tang Ju's eyes.

He looked the same, but he seemed like a different person.

Although he is just a civil official, his sharpness is not inferior to that of the Qin generals in the hall!

His eyes were like an eagle's, locking onto Prince Chu of Qin, without concealing his murderous intent.

Ju Wu, the envoy from the State of Yan who was beside him, was terrified. He didn't know what had happened to this envoy from Wei and how he dared to treat the King of Qin in this way.

The main purpose of the Five Nations Alliance was to restrict the development of Qin.

The best solution is to force Qin to control water and build canals, consume Qin's national strength, and make Qin exhausted.

Attacking Qin was the next best option after Qin failed to control its floods, just like the five countries united to attack Qi.

Ju Wu couldn't understand Tang Ju's dominance.

[If this war breaks out, it doesn’t matter what attitude you take, Tang Ju.]
[But if the war hadn’t started, and Qin had controlled the floods, the Five Kingdoms’ alliance would have ended. By then, Wei might have suffered a disaster because of your attitude, Tang Ju…]
Tang Ju also couldn't understand Ju Wu's weakness.

[It has come to this point, what are you still afraid of? ]
[It took Qin ten years to control the floods. During these ten years, Qin's development stagnated and even had a high probability of regression. Didn't Yan develop during this period?]
[Even the Qin State ten years later is afraid of it. The Yan State sent such a cowardly person. They really have no one left!]
"Has the King of Qin ever heard the anger of the ministers?" Tang Ju shouted loudly.

Qin Wang Zichu sneered:

"When a mediocre man is angry, he will hit the ground with his head!"

Tang Ju's stern expression:

"Ju is talking about a noble man, not a mediocre man!
"When Zhuan Zhu assassinated King Liao of Wu, the tail of a comet swept across the moon.

“When Nie Zheng assassinated Han Kui, a beam of white light shot straight up to the sun.

"When Yaoli was trying to assassinate Qingji, a goshawk swooped down onto the palace.

"These three men were all high officials, and before they could vent their anger, the heavens sent down signs.

“And I was already angry and wanted to imitate the three of them.

“The reason why the heavens did not give me any signs is because I still had hope. I hoped that the King of Qin would put the people of the world first and not harm the people of Guanzhong because of his own selfish thoughts!

"But if the King of Qin is stubborn and unyielding..."

With a "rip" sound, Tang Ju tore off his clothes with his hands, revealing his bare chest, which could be seen rising and falling due to his strong heartbeat.

He bared his breasts and shouted:

"Although I have no soldiers today, I will still do my best to kill the King of Qin!

"I will undoubtedly die, but I will also try my best to make all the people of Qin wear mourning clothes!
“If I cannot kill the King of Qin, I will make my blood splash ten steps away and fall on him!

"This is the wrath of the nobles!"

Before King Zichu of Qin could speak, many of the Qin generals in the hall had already left their chairs.

They rushed towards Tang Ju, shouting "You're looking for death", "Kill your mother", "Then you die" and so on.

Compared to talking, General Qin prefers to use his hands.

Anyone who dares to be so disrespectful to their king will be sentenced to death!
At the right time, Prime Minister Lu Buwei stood up, grabbed a chair and smashed it at Teng, the fastest running general.

Teng didn't pay attention to what was behind him, and didn't feel the pressure until the chair was right next to him.

His strength was already stored between his hands, and the vital energy in his body had been mobilized in advance.

The head doesn't turn yet, the fist goes first.

He directed all his strength that was originally intended to be released onto Tang Ju toward the person behind him, thinking it was a person.

With a dull thud, the body hit the wooden chair.

One leg of the chair fell off, and it rolled on the ground before being suddenly stepped on by a Qin general.

Teng's fists were stained with blood and he took two steps back, his eyes full of murderous intent.

The collision was so loud that the generals who were rushing towards Tang Ju looked over and stopped to see what had happened.

The person in question glanced around and soon saw that there was no chair under him and Lu Buwei had stood up.

He leaped up like a tiger and attacked:
"Lewd Shang!" Lu Buwei destroyed the Eastern Zhou Kingdom and established prestige among the Qin generals. Even Duke Bie gave him some face.

But after all, he had too little experience and his only achievement was destroying the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

At this critical moment, the furious General Teng could not be suppressed.

The two men fought each other, punching each other flesh to flesh.

This sudden change shocked King Zichu of Qin for a moment.

He thought that Lu Buwei would help his second son, but he only thought that Lu Buwei would talk, but never thought that Lu Buwei would take action!
There were fists and kicks fighting and shouting in the Zhangtai Palace. After several rounds, it was Lu Buwei who had the upper hand!
Civil officials suppress military generals!
Tian Gang is reversed!
"How dare you!" Qin Wang Zichu finally reacted.

He held the Qin King's Sword, standing on the high platform, the sword's tip was sharp as a tear of blood:

"Stop it, everyone!"

General Teng was kicked by Lu Buwei again and retreated with a gloomy face.

The physical pain was nothing compared to the shame in his heart. He had never even beaten a civil servant!
Teng looked at Lu Buwei's pale face, then fell on Lu Buwei's shoulder where there was a slowly expanding red mark.

Teng knew very well that it was blood.

However, without any sharp weapon in his hand, he did not cause any external injuries to Lu Buwei in this short period of time.

If the injury was not caused by him, then it was the injury that Lu Buwei originally had, and it was most likely caused by the assassin they sent out.

Not only did he lose to a civil servant, but he also lost to a wounded civil servant!

Lu Buwei twisted his arms slightly, looked at the bloodstains on his arms, and snorted.

This is not his blood, it is Teng's blood.

Teng was injured when his fist hit the chair, and blood fell on his body.

Lu Buwei had long known that Qin was a brutal country.

Many times, reason is not enough.

Only by using violence can violence be controlled!
The generals' eyes towards Lu Buwei changed slightly and became somewhat appreciative.

These ruffians appreciate fists and feet far more than words.

Prince Chu of Qin glanced at his confidant Lu Buwei with a complicated look. Lu Buwei had once again proved himself in front of him.

Although his prime minister was born into a merchant family, he was both civil and military.

He can convince civil officials and control military generals.

However, this proof was not in line with the wishes of Prince Chu of Qin, but was actually boosting the momentum of his second son.

It's time to talk more with Bu Wei. I shouldn't hide this disease from him... Qin Zichu thought to himself, his face solemn:
"Is Zhangtai Palace a place for you guys to fight? Huh?"

In a word, the fight between Lu Buwei and Teng was defined as a prank.

Fighting is just a small matter. Qin Wangzichu continued:

"One is a general of my Qin State.

"One is my Qin State Prime Minister!
"With the foreign envoys here, do you want to learn to perform like actors and actresses to entertain us?

"What a disgrace! Each of you will be fined two months' salary!"

He picked it up high and put it down gently, and King Zichu of Qin ignored the two of them.

Wu Jiangteng returned to his chair and sat down, his face flushed, feeling it was shameful that he had never fought before.

Prime Minister Lu Buwei had just thrown out a chair, and since there was no chair left, he had to stand.

King Zichu of Qin turned a blind eye and deserves a lesson!
Prince Chu of Qin slowly sat down, his aura dropping along with his butt.

As the overlord of the world, King Qin, he had already lost some of his dignity by not immediately killing Tang Ju who threatened to kill him in person.

This is a long time.

Young Master Cheng Jiao and his entourage were in high spirits.

Li Yuan, Zhang Liang and Ju Wu all stood up straight, proud of having the upper hand in front of the King of Qin and proud of having accomplished the feat of forcing Qin to surrender.

In history, there were many cases where various countries joined forces to force Qin.

Su Qin, Kuang Zhang, Gongsun Yan and others have all done it.

Every time a set goal is achieved, it will shock the world and affect the Central Plains.

For example, Su Qin formed an alliance to force King Zhaoxiang of Qin to give up his imperial title.

It strongly suppressed the arrogance of King Zhaoxiang of Qin and gave confidence to other countries.

For example, Kuang Zhang led the coalition forces of the Three Kingdoms to break through Hangu Pass and enter Guanzhong.

Let the princes know that Hangu Pass can be breached and that Qin's geographical advantages are not impeccable.

Participants can become famous in their time and their names can be listed in history books so that future generations will know about them.

Such a good thing, but there was one person who was dissatisfied, Li Mu.

Although forcing Qin is good, attacking Qin is better, because only by fighting can his ability be demonstrated.

The place where he could show his prowess was the battlefield, not the court.

Prince Chu of Qin looked at his second son and suddenly laughed, his face fully illuminated, not looking forced at all.

Li Mu raised his eyebrows, hoping that things would take a turn for the better, and hoping that the King of Qin would be tougher and go to war with the five countries.

Even if he could not become the commander-in-chief of the Five-Nation Allied Forces at that time, at least he would have no problem joining the army and fighting, and then he would prove himself.

Li Yuan and Ju Wu felt that the King of Qin was just trying to save face and retain a little dignity.

Tang Ju made two preparations: fulfilling his mission or sacrificing himself to fulfill his mission.

It's fine to force Qin to attack Qin, forcing Qin is the best, he is not seeking death.

Zhang Liang...love is whatever you want.

He was born in Korea, a country at the end of the Warring States Period. This was his first time playing in a high-end game. He was completely unable to keep up with the pace and had to go with the flow.

Young Master Cheng Jiao had a blank expression on his face, but his heart was as clear as a mirror.

He knew that his father was not bluffing but was holding a trump card.

He was the one who gave this trump card to his father.

The first of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, Ren Tu, Bai Qi.

There is no greater fault in attacking and conquering.

Prince Chu of Qin looked at his second son with great interest, as if everything that had happened before was just children's play.

It should be considered a surprise that he failed to subdue his second son.

If the five countries could be frightened and their alliance collapsed, it would naturally be a good thing if Bai Qi could continue to be hidden.

But since we can't scare them, it would be a good idea to wait until the five nations reach their peak momentum and then give them a hard kick to suppress them.

The princes fell from the clouds to the underworld. The more painful the fall was, the more they feared the Qin State.

The cowardly lose before the battle even begins!

When Qin has enough soldiers and food, we will reap the fruits of today's victory, destroy these frightened countries, and unify the world.

From the very beginning, King Zichu of Qin did not believe that the Five Nations Alliance would succeed.

He laughed, wanting to tell the news that Bai Qi was still alive, and said:

"A scoundrel is a scoundrel, his plan went wrong.

"When you went to Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Han, you didn't tell them Bai"

"King of Qin!" Prince Chengjiao interrupted his father and said seriously, "If I were you, I would send someone to confirm it. Be careful not to catch the chicken but lose the rice."

Prince Chu of Qin frowned slightly, feeling something strange.

He could understand that he would lose more than he gained by catching the chicken. The second son told many stories, including this one:
[A Korean man tried to lure his neighbor's chicken with a handful of rice, but the chicken pecked at his hand, causing the rice in his hand to fall to the ground. He ended up losing the rice instead of the chicken.]

This story is about not getting any advantage but suffering a loss.

Qin Wang Zichu found it very interesting and kept it in mind.

He twisted his neck slightly, looked at his second son carefully, and looked into his eyes.

[Change "steal" to "catch"... This bastard did it on purpose... He is reminding me. ]
[Does the widower need you to remind him?]
[Even King Zhaoxiang couldn't persuade Bai Qi, do you think Lu Buwei could? What a joke!]
Although he thought so in his heart, Prince Qin Chu still didn't say anything else.

It is better to believe that this kind of thing exists than to believe that it does not exist.

He waved his hand and asked the attendant Bai to come closer to visit Bai Qi and find out his attitude.

In the hall, the envoys from the five countries had never heard of this story, and based on the literal meaning, they could not be sure of the specific meaning.

Because “catching” may be done by the owner or by a friend.

Without waiting for them to think about it, Lu Buwei, who had been standing, said in a deep voice:
"You asked Zheng to come to Guanzhong to control the floods, why don't you ask Zheng to go to your country to control the floods?"

The Prime Minister of Qin looked at Li Yuan and shouted:
"Shouldn't you treat the waters of Chu?"

Many Qin generals were confused and didn't know what was going on with Lu Buwei.

Didn’t the Prime Minister advise on how to control the flood?
Meng Ao closed his eyes and understood.

Although it is a little unclear and the specific reasons are unknown, it is certain that the Prime Minister is trying to delay time.

Positions cannot be changed easily.

Prince Chu of Qin was also aware of this. He glanced at Lu Buwei and said nothing.

He waved his hand and asked the eunuch to move a chair over.

No matter what his thoughts were, at least Lu Buwei's words were consistent with his position.

Then he would give rewards to show that he would not treat unfairly those who worked for him.

Reward Lü Buwei and show it to all the civil and military officials.

Ying Chengjiao pursed his lips. There was no need for him to show up. The five countries could just deal with it on their own.

His heart was beating slightly.

Bai Qi did not respond to his letter, which made him feel a little disappointed.

Bai Qi ignored his teacher Lu Buwei, refused to talk to him, and even wanted to kill him, which made him miscalculate again.

Although he kept adjusting his strategy against Bai Qi in his mind, he was not 100% sure whether he could really get this butcher of the Warring States Period to come closer to him.

He swallowed and began to tense.

At this moment, success or failure is no longer under Ying Chengjiao's control.

The young man suddenly thought of Meng Wu, who had escorted him all the way and betrayed his own position for the sake of his grandfather.

This world is real and cruel, not a game.

He is not a player, nor is he an NPC.

More than an hour later, the attendant Ying Bai came hurriedly, with a look of undisguised panic on his face.

Although she tried her best to conceal her presence when she entered Zhangtai Palace, everyone could see that her steps were hurried.

Ying Chengjiao's heart was beating very fast.

And his father, Qin Zichu's heartbeat was even faster than his! An ominous premonition spread wildly in his heart!

The attendant Ying Bai leaned over to Qin Prince Chu's ear and said in panic:

"Bai Qi said: 'I am ill and cannot fight!'"

　Well... I have finished paying off all the chapters I owe. Thank you, Mr. Hualuozhi, for the 1500 reward.
