Chapter 140: Treading the Water and Singing

Chapter 140 Singing on the Water

Yang Wengzi, the fierce general who fought against the Huns in the Qin Dynasty, was now the only force that Ziying could rely on. Just as Fu Ge led his army to fight against Liu Bang's Chu army, the small movements of Emperor Ziying also began. The inner history Han Tan was the envoy sent by Ziying to Dai County, and he carried the emperor's secret edict.

"What are you talking about - true?" Ziying was overjoyed when she heard Han Tanzhi's words. Since Yang Wengzi was willing to come, she was sure of her loyalty to the emperor. As long as his army arrived in Xianyang, with the elite of the 30,000 to 40,000 northern legions, Ziying believed that he would have the strength to compete with Fu Ge at that time. With the army, he would have the weight to speak.

A truly powerful emperor, an emperor who founded countless great achievements like his brother Ying Zheng, was so excited that Ziying, who was over 50 years old that he almost couldn't speak.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will go to the Ba Bridge outside the city to welcome General Yang, and I will definitely let him come to meet His Majesty." Han Tan also said happily. As a minister, he would be happy to be able to do such a big thing for Ziying, because in this way, his position in the eyes of the emperor will be more important and stable.

Below one person, above ten thousand people——Although Han Tan does not have the same ill-heartedness as Zhao Gao, his desire for wealth and power is the same.

"No, I want to welcome General Yang in person." Ziying finally calmed down. After thinking about it, he ordered in a deep voice. This fact is of great importance. Ziying originally sent Han Tan to Dai County to Ziying just wanted to give it a try, but she didn't expect that this test would be a chance. Now that she is a powerful force, she is obviously no longer turning back.

Due to careful consideration, Ziying, who was afraid that Yang Wengzi might turn to Fu Ge, decided to go into battle personally. In the history of the Qin Dynasty, the emperor personally went out of the city to welcome the generals outside the city, except for Bai Qi, Wang Jian and other famous generals who had great military achievements, no one had ever experienced it. Therefore, Ziying had reason to be convinced that such a grand courtesy was enough to make Yang Wengzi surrender.

In the north of Xianyang City, the doctor ordered Li Shiqi's mansion, that night.

study.

Li Shiqi, who has been hidden behind the scenes in the dispute between France and Confucianism, was very anxious. Fu Ge took away not only the backbone lost, but more importantly, most of the direct descendants of the Fu faction went to the front line of Lantian Pass, and there were very few people who were left behind. Now the power that Li Shiqi could rely on was more than a thousand troops guarding Xianyang, some eyeliners, secret whistles, and officials like Feng Zheng, Fu Sheng, and Sima Chang who were inclined toward the Fu faction.

To put it in detail, this is also the consequence of the rapid development and growth of the Fu clan. It suddenly transformed from a local "warlord" into a pillar of the court. The innate shortcomings are difficult to overcome in a short period of time. Military leaders can also be trained and promoted from actual combat, while talents who govern the country can only slowly discover and explore, because although pro-Fu clan officials like Feng Zheng and Sima Chang have a future of training, everything still needs time.

Time——, being attacked from all sides, and internal troubles in the court were hidden. No one would give Fu Ge time to relieve this momentum. Liu Bang led 100,000 Chu troops to invade, with the purpose of occupying Xianyang, Xiang Yu was the first to command the heavy army on the front line of Zhangshui, with the purpose of putting pressure on the Qin Dynasty and forcing it to collapse. The Huns in the north and Maodun's iron cavalry appeared frequently in the north of the Great Wall, which was also a sign of going south. In the court, the emperor Ziying, who had just ascended the throne, was also seeking his greatest rights, all of which Fu Ge could not escape and had to face.

As early as early June, the Qin army, confined to Jiyuan, faced a severe situation. Fu Ge, who was worried that Zhang Han would lead his army to surrender to Xiang Yu, sent Sima Liang to go out of Hangu to lobby in Sima Xin's army. In this way, the important task of staying in Xianyang could only fall on Li Shiqi's head. Originally, the task of guarding the capital should be taken on by a person with more comprehensive abilities than Li Shiqi, but other people in the Fu faction were either on the front line or worse than Li Shiqi's ability. There was no way to drive the ducks on the shelves. Li Shiqi, a lobbyist with great verbal skills, had no choice but to be the "full-power representative" who stayed behind.

"What did you say? The Northern Legion is heading south. Is this news reliable?" Under the dim light, Li Shiqi's voice was sharp and rapid. His tall and thin figure seemed extremely majestic. However, he knew clearly that these were just phantoms. He felt the feeling of helplessness and fatigue.

"It's not wrong. I'm listening to what Your Majesty and Lord Han said with my own eyes. Moreover, I've heard from Your Majesty that I'll go to Baqiao to greet General Yang in person." The man in black spoke with a sharp voice attracted the attention of others, because only the eunuchs in the palace would have this voice.

"Okay, go back first, be careful not to attract attention."

"I understand, please reassure the doctor."

This man in black is Fu Ge who was looking for in the palace when Ziying ascended the throne. It is said that he should not have the intention to harm others and be wary of others. Fu Ge, who knows very well, would certainly not sit and watch Ziying jump up and down.

In the study, Li Shiqi paced back and forth anxiously. As the largest official of the Fu clan who stayed in Xianyang City, the burden on his shoulders was not light. He had to deal with government affairs and monitor Ziying's every move. The enemy was in the dark and I was in the light, which was difficult to do.

It was really unexpected that the Northern Legion stationed on the Great Wall was heading south at this time. It would be understandable if it had gone south before the war began. At this time, the war had ended. The Northern Legion was obviously not a good person. The soldiers in Fu Ge's hands were exhausted. If the Northern Legion used force, there would be no possibility of a counterattack.

"Come on, ride a fast horse and send this secret letter to Fu Xiang. Remember, hurry up and!" Before I could think about anything, Li Shiqi painted a few lines of words on the desk early, sealed it with red paint and handed it to his confidants in the mansion.

"Carrier, prepare your car and go to Baqiao!" Only by letting Fu Ge know what happened in Xianyang City as soon as possible can a crisis be stopped. At the same time, Li Shiqi must also go to Baqiao first. If Yang Wengzi arrives, he will be with him, even if Ziying has nothing to say.

Early morning morning.

The third emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Ying Ziying, brought a son and a daughter and several guards in the palace, out of Xianyang City Gate. Outside the city, the scenery in early summer was pleasant, and the rippling ripples on the river surface spread out layer by layer, as if a picture-like volume was unfolded. The new lotus leaves were exuding fragrance in the morning sun, and the pointed tender grass swayed in the wind, as if telling people that this beautiful scenery was hard to come by.

"Father, look at the ducks in the river. There is a female duck with seven little ducks. How happy they are swimming." Ying Zhen, who accompanied the trip, jumped happily and pointed at the river and shouted.

The river water in this section is clear and fish can be seen swimming freely. Although Ying Zhen is the Princess of Anyang of the Qin Dynasty, it is rare to go out for such a leisurely outing. Especially during the reign of the second generation Hu Hai, Ziying strictly prohibited her children from leaving the house for no reason to cause trouble. Therefore, when I greeted my parents early this morning, I heard that my father was going out. How could Ying Zhen miss this opportunity? It was not easy to convince Ziying with her favored means.

"The morning breeze blows away, and the northern forest is filled with depression. I haven't seen a gentleman, and I'm worried and honored. How! I'm so much! There are so many selfless people. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos. There are so many egos."

Ziying couldn't help but have fun looking at the summer scenery. He chanted while stepping on the water. This is a song called "Morning Breeze" about a woman's thoughts when missing her lover. The poem describes love so beautifully, which makes the listener intoxicated. To be honest, if Ziying's talent is just based on literature, she can achieve higher harmony. Unfortunately, like Li Houzhu and Song Huizong and other talents, he was born in the wrong imperial family.

However, Ziying's good mood was quickly interrupted by a person's appearance, and this person was the doctor's lord Li Shiqi.

"I got up early and practice in the morning. I didn't expect to see Your Majesty singing on the water here. It's really a great honor!" Li Shiqi smiled and showed surprise, and looked like he was completely coincidental.

"Uh, it's the doctor, Lord Ling, Tongxiao, Tongxiao, now I have nothing to do now, so I will take my children out for a walk!" Ziying was stunned at first, and then immediately regained his calmness. He also passed by a lot of storms when Zhao Gao was in power. Although Li Shiqi was not good at coming, he was enough to deal with it.

"Well, the scenery outside the north gate is really good. I just followed by your Majesty's singing. It was not intended to disturb your Majesty's tranquility-!" Li Shiqi smiled slightly. It was obvious that only ghosts would believe Ziying's words, but the current situation could not turn against each other in public. Even if Ziying had ambitions, it would be of great help to stabilize the rule of the Qin Dynasty and gather the hearts of the people of the Qin Dynasty. Once civil strife broke out, a disintegrated Qin would definitely not be able to stop the attack of many rebels. On this point, Fu Ge had already reached a consensus with Li Shiqi and other close generals and advisers.
