Quick Transmigration: Legendary Figures of the Ages

Chapter 447 After becoming Lord Changping, Prince Fusu became the group's favorite (Thirty-two)

(Thirty-two)

Zhao Gao knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace and reward."

"Do you really think it is a reward?" King Ying Zheng of Qin said in a deep voice.

Zhao Gao's heart finally died.

"It is my servant's blessing to serve the king and drive his chariot for all my life."

Ying Zheng lowered his eyes and looked at the top of Zhao Gao's head, his tone nonchalant but certain, "Do you not think highly of Fusu, or do you think Fusu cannot benefit you the most?"

Fusu:!?(_;?
It's all foggy and confusing, what does it have to do with him?
Zhao Gao: !!!
The king is truly a god.

He played tricks in front of the king, which was like brandishing an axe in front of Lu Ban, making a fool of himself.

"Zhao Gao, I want to hear the truth."

Ying Zheng's voice was calm, but to Zhao Gao's ears it sounded like a sword hanging on his neck. He could easily take his life with just his words.

Zhao Gao kowtowed and said, "I was once bewitched by a ghost."

"But since the King personally taught Prince Fusu, I have no second thoughts."

"Your Majesty, everything I said is true."

King Qin Ying Zheng sighed softly, "It is indeed so."

After all, his ability to judge people is not as good as Changping Jun's.

He had always thought that Zhao Gao was loyal.

It turned out that it was not out of loyalty, but out of fear of him that they dared not act rashly.

If he dies one day, will Zhao Gao want to ascend to heaven?

Could it be that Fusu, whom he personally taught, was unable to control a mere Zhao Gao?
Is this looking down on him, or looking down on Fusu?
Ying Zheng's face suddenly turned from cloudy to rainy.

"Zhao Gao, I know exactly what those who have advocated the abolition of the eldest son and enthroning the youngest son are thinking."

"Why, do you want to experience the pleasure of being above all the ministers, holding the young emperor hostage, and eliminating dissidents?"

"I dare not." Zhao Gao was sweating profusely.

Ying Zheng shook his sleeves and turned to leave.

Fusu blinked his eyes, looking innocent and naive, but the words he said frightened Zhao Gao so much that he dared not move.

"Does the Zhao Mansion Commander covet the power of Marquis Wenxin?"

Zhao Gao was stunned.

Although Prince Fusu is young, he has the demeanor of a king.

Different from the king's thundering power, Prince Fusu is fierce in a gentle and drizzling manner.

A single word of coveted interpretation of Wen Xinhou could kill him without him even realizing it.

Everyone knows that the king was young and held hostage, his future was in danger, and he had no real power when he ascended the throne at a young age. Lu Buwei was in power and had great authority.

All these experiences destined the king to never allow anyone to interfere with the royal power.

Only when the royal power is in the hands of the king can the king feel at ease.

He is totally wrong!
"Mr. Zhao, why don't you follow me?" Fusu said in a gentle voice.

Zhao Gao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, stood up, holding up his clothes, and trotted over.

Zhangtai Palace.

Zhao Gao sorted the bamboo slips and ground ink as usual, carefully sensing Ying Zheng's mood.

Ying Zheng ignored it and focused on teaching Fusu.

"Fusu, do you know why General Wang Jian insisted on sending 600,000 troops to fight against Chu?"

He thought about this question for a long time before he came up with the answer.

"With General Wang Jian's ability to lead troops in battle, is it really impossible to defeat the Chu army with 200,000 or 300,000 troops?"

Fusu frowned and said uncertainly, "To ensure that nothing goes wrong?"

Ying Zheng did not attack Fusu, but first affirmed, "Count it."

Then he asked, "Anything else?"

Fusu:......

Being questioned all the time is really nerve-wracking.

Destroy Chu?

Defeat the Chu army?

The question from King Ying Zheng of Qin kept echoing in Fusu's mind.

Destroying Chu and defeating the Chu army are completely different in nature.

"The general wants to achieve his goal in one battle." Fusu considered again and again, "Destroy Chu." "Yes, destroy Chu."

"What the general wants is not to defeat the Chu army, but to destroy the country."

"The territory of Chu is vast. If the general can destroy as many forces of Chu as possible in one battle, then he can avoid hiding a large number of defeated and fleeing Chu troops, and drag the elite soldiers of Qin into a long-term consumption."

"Historical records show that hundreds of years ago, during the Battle of Baiju between Wu and Chu, Wu sent a small force to hide in Chu, harassing the Chu army for several years in a mobile and unpredictable manner."

"The Chu army was overwhelmed and exhausted."

"So, the general wants to use this 600,000-man army to completely destroy Chu, and at the same time eliminate the various feudal states of Chu."

"After this battle, Jingchu will no longer have the power to rebel."

Qin King Ying Zheng's eyes sparkled, "My son is smart."

"It was my father who gave me the hint." Fusu said honestly.

Zhao Gao: He is also sincerely convinced.

So, can the king put aside the past grudges?

……

Time goes by day by day.

One day, a piece of news swept the world.

The State of Chu broke the tradition of having no two kings in a country. Changping Jun claimed that he was the eldest son of King Kaolie of Chu and that he had noble bloodline, making him the most orthodox king of the State of Chu.

He rose up in rebellion and won over the people's hearts. In just a few months, he was able to compete with Fu Chu and establish himself as king.

It is said that the banner raised by Changping Jun was to fight the nobles, divide the land, and sweep away all the evil spirits.

Simple and clear, with a wave of his arm, the people of Chu followed.

Faced with a powerful enemy, all the nobles lobbied Changping Jun, and even Fu Chu claimed that he was willing to abdicate the throne.

But Changping Jun refused to budge and clamored that he would use his strength to bring Fu Chu down, take back the land and ensure that the people had their own land.

Arrogant and arrogant!
The State of Chu was in chaos.

It’s getting more and more chaotic.

Ink was poured into a cup of clean water, and in the end it was impossible to tell whether it was clean water or ink.

Letters from home were sent to the military camp one after another, and people were in a panic.

All the nobles in Chu State felt insecure.

Chu nobles: Lord Changping is sick!
Born into a royal family, an aristocrat among aristocrats, he rebelled against himself?
Therefore, whether to return east to suppress the Changping Jun Uprising or to continue confronting Wang Jian became Xiang Yan's top priority.

King Ying Zheng of Qin looked at the news on the silk cloth and was unusually panicked.

He thought that Changping Jun would use the rumor of rebelling against Qin and joining Chu to divide and win over the Chu nobles, strengthen himself, and then depose Fu Chu and exercise the power of the King of Chu.

However, no one expected that Changping Jun would realize his joke of vying for the position of King of Chu in this way.

This was not a confrontation with the nobles of the State of Chu; it was an offense to all the nobles in the world and a move to shake the inherent interests of the privileged class.

There is no turning back, State of Chu.

Lord Changping, there is no way out.

The world is so big, but there is no place that can accommodate Lord Changping.

What about him?

Ying Zheng asked himself, could he protect Changping Jun in the storm?
The answer is no.

He could conquer the territories of the six countries, but he could not change the status quo of the interests of the six countries in a short time.

Not just the six kingdoms, but also the Qin Dynasty.

The old nobles of the Qin Dynasty would not allow Changping Jun to live.

As long as Changping Jun is alive, the new and old nobles will have trouble sleeping.

Amidst the vast storm, he could not find any hope for Changping Jun.

What message did Changping Jun want to convey to him through this incident?
Land annexation.

Yes, it is land annexation.

Changping Jun used the State of Chu as an example to make him see the private ownership of land in the Eastern countries, the annexation of land by the nobles, and the accumulated resentment and dissatisfaction of the people.

Let Daqin learn from this and reflect on itself.

It's not just land annexation.

He was also warned that if he wanted to privatize land, he should be extremely cautious and think twice.

Ying Zheng tightly grasped the silk cloth, feeling upset.

He had a premonition that the war between Qin and Chu would soon come to an end.
