Chapter 112 Who Am I? A Husky that Sneaked Into a Wolf Pack!

Zhao Jinceng's alliance with Ying Zheng is no less than a rooster laying eggs in Ying Chengyu's opinion.

And this also shattered Ying Chengyu's long-standing understanding of the factions in the court.

"What about Prime Minister Lu?" Ying Chengyu frowned: "Is Prime Minister Lu also indulging the Queen Mother?"

Regarding this childish question, Zhang Rang felt that he did not need to answer.

After a few breaths, Ying Chengyu rubbed his eyebrows with his hands and asked himself: "Prime Minister Lu also intends to control the court."

"Weakening the Queen Mother Huayang is in the unanimous interests of Brother Wang, the Queen Mother and Lu Buwei."

"And Huang Jie was originally Lu Buwei's subordinate. Even if Lu Buwei didn't take the initiative, he would definitely contribute to it!"

Zhang Rang nodded: "Quite clever."

Ying Chengyu still frowned deeply: "But why did Lu Buwei tell me about this matter again?"

"If it is true as Zhang Tianan analyzed, Lu Buwei should hope that I will stay in Xianyang Palace and be killed by Huang Jie together with the Queen Mother Huayang!"

Zhang Rang said speechlessly: "Because the King of Qin protected you."

"King Qin's protection for you goes beyond the limit of an ordinary king's protection for his brothers. No one can imagine how much price King Qin is willing to pay to save your life."

"If Lu Buwei really introduces you to Xianyang Palace, King Qin may temporarily change the plan for the sake of your life, making this battle completely beyond Lu Buwei's expectations."

"So Lu Buwei informed the emperor about Huang Jie's change of court, presumably to send the emperor to Yongcheng."

Zhang Rang raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth: "After all, if your Majesty's prediction is correct, the Queen Mother has already deployed weapons and weapons in Yongcheng."

"If you can even kill your own sibling, how much more so, your Majesty?"

Ying Chengxuan held the door frame with his hand and said in a bitter voice: "I originally thought that Prime Minister Lu was inconvenient to show his clique and selfish behavior in front of Brother Wang, so I asked you to inform Brother Wang about Huang Jie's change of court."

"But now it seems that Brother Wang, Prime Minister Lu, and the Queen Mother may have already understood each other's intentions and reached a tacit agreement."

"I and the Queen Mother Huayang are the only ones who are still kept in the dark!"

Zhang Rang sat up straight in surprise and looked at the door with disbelief: "How could your Majesty have such an idea?"

Ying Chengyu felt a hint of joy in his heart: "Actually, these three parties have not formed an alliance?"

Zhang Rang shook his head and said strangely: "Zhang really can't understand."

"Why would your Majesty think that the Queen Mother Huayang doesn't know about this matter and has not reached a tacit agreement with other parties?"

Ying Chengyu was even more shocked: "Grandma has known this for a long time, and has even reached a tacit agreement with several other parties?"

Zhang Rang told the heartbreaking truth:

"The Mi surname has been in the Qin Dynasty for more than a hundred years, and its intelligence channels are larger than the Qin clan."

"The Queen Mother Huayang is even more extraordinary. With the power of the Queen Mother Huayang, it is impossible for her to not know this."

"Please, Your Majesty, please do not underestimate the mind of Queen Mother Huayang."

"Among those who have the ability to influence the pattern of this battle, I think you are the only one who knows nothing about it!"

Ying Chengyu:...

You all know about the co-authorship, but am I the only one who is kept in the dark?

The corners of Zhang Rang's mouth curled up slightly, and he continued to hit the target excitedly:

"Zhang said conservatively that all the veterans of the Qin Dynasty with a rank of more than 1,500 shi and who are related to this bureau should have some knowledge of this bureau."

"Even generals like General Wang Jian should be able to see the situation clearly."

"After all, seeing the situation clearly is the most basic ability to survive in the court."

"The real test of one's intelligence is how to make a move in this situation!"

"Chang'an-kun, don't you think it's difficult to see the situation clearly?"

Ying Chengyu: (︵`)

People who play politics are so dirty!

At this moment, Ying Chengyu felt like a donkey mixed in with a herd of horses or a husky mixed in with a pack of wolves.

The wolves around him were already sharpening their claws and preparing to fight to the death, but he was still there enjoying himself.

No!

He wasn't just having fun.

He even walked up to other wolves and asked excitedly, "Hey, what are you playing at?" Take one with me!

Even though she couldn't see her figure, Mrs. Han knew that Ying Chengyu must have been hit hard, so she asked on his behalf: "If the Queen Mother Huayang knew about this, how could she be unprepared?"

"You even changed Lord Changwen's position to Fengchang and sent him to Yongcheng?"

Zhang Rang smiled warmly: "Princess, this battle may seem dangerous, but it is actually ordinary."

"From the day Empress Dowager Huayang married into Xianyang Palace, she followed Empress Dowager Xuan to watch how Empress Dowager Xuan faced such a situation where she was fighting against multiple parties on her own."

"After the death of Empress Dowager Xuan, Empress Dowager Huayang began to personally manage this situation."

"After Queen Mother Huayang was granted the title of Queen Mother, she is still facing this situation."

"For Queen Mother Huayang, it's just the same old thing happening again."

"The arrangements she should make have been made decades ago, so why make more temporary arrangements?"

"As for dispatching Lord Changwen to Fengchang, it is a backup plan left by the Queen Mother Huayang."

"In this way, even if the Empress Dowager Huayang dies in Xianyang Palace, Lord Changwen can still save his own life by rescuing her, allowing the Chu family relatives to leave a nail in the Qin Kingdom in order to make a comeback in the future."

Mrs. Han suddenly understood, and then sighed: "So, sending Lord Chang Wen as Feng Chang and presenting military documents to Xiu'er was not just the Queen Mother Huayang's intention to protect the king."

"It's also the funeral arrangements prepared by Queen Mother Huayang!"

After the death of the Queen Mother Xia, most of the Queen Mother Xia's subordinates were expelled from the court, and only a dozen of her subordinates who had indeed committed serious violations were sentenced to death.

Even when facing Ying Chengjiao, Lü Buwei did not have to kill him. If Ying Chengjiao really fled to another country and never returned, or if he mutilated himself and had no chance of competing for the throne, Lü Buwei was willing to spare his life.

In the eyes of Ying Chengjiao at that time, this kind of court struggle was already very tragic.

But today, the real court struggle appeared in front of Ying Chengjiao.

Ying Zheng would still respectfully call his grandmother, and the Queen Mother Huayang also kindly called him Zheng'er, and Lü Buwei continued to promote various policies.

However, all those in the situation had already prepared for the psychological expectation of death, and even prepared for what would happen after his death.

When the time comes, they will meet in battle!

Ying Chengjiao's hoarse voice suddenly sounded:

"So the current situation is that the king, the queen mother, the queen mother Huayang and Prime Minister Lu are all cooperating with each other, but they are also plotting to murder each other?"

Zhang Rang shook his head: "Your Majesty's understanding is correct, but not entirely correct."

"The queen mother Huayang and Prime Minister Lu joined forces to fight the queen mother in Yongcheng."

"The queen mother and Prime Minister Lu joined forces to fight the queen mother Huayang in Xianyang."

"The queen mother and the queen mother Huayang joined forces to swallow up Lu Buwei's subjects."

"As for the King of Qin?" Zhang Rang sneered: "Who wants to kill him and who wants to protect him, what does it have to do with him?"

"He doesn't care at all!"

"The King of Qin knows very well that whether it is the person who kills him or the person who protects him, it is not him, but his throne!"

"So the King of Qin is using the crown as an inducement, using his life and the power of the Qin as bait, Lead the three major forces of the Qin Dynasty to weaken each other. "

"Whoever is weak, the Qin King will help."

"Whoever is strong, the Qin King will suppress."

"The final result is that the three forces will check and balance each other and blood will flow like a river."

"After the coronation, the Qin King will come out to clean up the mess and hold the power of the Qin Dynasty in his hands!"

Ying Chengjiao sighed bitterly: "So cruel?"

Zhang Rang laughed: "Cruel?"

"Hahaha~" Zhang Rang laughed so hard that tears almost came out: "Chang'an Jun, how did you live to the age of sixteen? How can you be so naive!"

"This is kindness!"

"It's great kindness!"

"If my King of Han can have the courage of the King of Qin, my Zhang family will be willing to kowtow and thank you even if they sacrifice themselves to join the game!"

In Ying Chengjiao's ideology, it is difficult not to call what Ying Zheng did cruel.

Look at who are the people in the game!

Ying Zheng's biological mother, Ying Zheng's grandmother, and Lü Buwei, who saved Ying Zheng and brought him back to the Qin Dynasty and was like a teacher and a father.

Both of them were Ying Zheng's beloved relatives and friends.

Now they were fighting to the death under the guidance of Ying Zheng.

But from Zhang Rang's perspective, Ying Zheng was really kind.

Ying Zheng was using his own life as bait to completely detonate the conflict at the earliest possible time.

Neither the Queen Mother Huayang, the Queen Mother Wang, nor Lü Buwei had done anything that required death to apologize for the throne.

After weakening the power of the three parties, Ying Zheng sat on the throne, and the three forces surrendered to Ying Zheng and continued to be used by Ying Zheng.

From now on, Ying Zheng no longer needs to worry about the three forces having the power to shake his throne.

The three forces also do not need to arouse Ying Zheng's suspicion because of their own strength.

From then on, the monarch and his ministers worked together to build the Qin Dynasty.

Isn't this more harmonious than the relationship between Han Wangan and Zhang Rang and Han Qi?

After being silent for dozens of breaths, Ying Chengjiao suddenly sighed softly: "I didn't see through the situation in the court, nor did I understand what my brother wanted to do."

"I don't even know where I stand."

"I made a decision according to my own will before seeing the whole picture, and even forced my brother to allow my actions."

"Did I do something wrong?"

"Perhaps it is the right choice for me to respect my brother's order and live in the Xianyang camp?"

Just by listening to Ying Chengjiao's voice, Madam Han could feel Ying Chengjiao's deep fatigue and tiredness.

Madam Han hurriedly asked: "May I ask Zhang Tianan, what is the right thing for my son to do?"

Zhang Rang responded in a gentle voice: "Princess, don't worry, Your Majesty, just do what you want is the best choice."

Madam Han frowned slightly: "In such a chaotic situation, is my son qualified to do what he wants?"

There are either old foxes or young foxes around him.

How can Ying Chengjiao do what he wants?

Zhang Rang said with some emotion: "Isn't ignorance a kind of blessing?"

Ying Chengjiao glared at Zhang Rang through the silk on the window.

What nonsense are you talking about!

Zhang Rang suddenly felt a little cold, pulled the quilt, and patiently explained: "The King of Qin is wise, courageous and courageous. More importantly, the King of Qin trusts you, which is your most precious wealth."

"The King of Qin may be out of love for you, or out of the hope of leaving a bloodline for King Zhuangxiang, so he did not order you to go to Yongcheng, but ordered you to stay in the Xianyang camp."

"But for the King of Qin, the best place for you is to go to Yongcheng to protect him."

Mrs. Han frowned slightly: "What's the use of only Jiao'er and his hundred family soldiers?"

Zhang Rang smiled and said: "Princess, don't underestimate the identity of Chang'an Jun."

"As early as in Xinzheng, Zhang heard a rumor that the King of Qin was not the son of King Zhuangxiang."

Mrs. Han nodded: "There is indeed such a rumor, and this rumor was spread by Queen Mother Wang."

Zhang Rang nodded and said: "That's it."

"Queen Mother Wang is likely to continue to spread this rumor in Yongcheng in the near future."

"If Lord Chang'an really does not go to Yongcheng, the Queen Mother is likely to fly the banner of Lord Chang'an and call on all the old Qin people in Yongcheng to attack and kill the King of Qin in the name of upholding the bloodline of the Qin royal family."

"But if Lord Chang'an also goes to Yongcheng, there will be no room for this rumor to be carried out."

"Moreover, King Zhuang Xiang's only two heirs are in Yongcheng. It is very likely that the old Qin people in Yongcheng will spontaneously support the King of Qin and attack the Queen Mother instead."

"The old Qin people from Yongcheng are a powerful force!"

Since Duke Aigong of Qin, no country has dared to underestimate Qin's civil power.

And Yongcheng is the old capital of the Qin Dynasty, occupying the head of Guizhou who is most loyal to the Qin State.

If this power can be leveraged, it is likely to directly affect the pattern of the Battle of Yongdu!

Mrs. Han smiled warmly: "In this case, I can feel at ease."

Zhang Rang suddenly asked: "Is the princess satisfied with peace of mind?"

Mrs. Han frowned slightly: "What does Zhang Tianan mean by this?"

Zhang Rang spoke in a low voice: "The changes in the court situation when the King of Qin is crowned will directly determine the future direction of the Qin Dynasty."

"This is the moment when all forces are at their weakest, and it is also the best opportunity for Lord Chang'an."

"If Lord Chang'an wants to become a powerful person, now is the most suitable opportunity."

Mrs. Han was silent.

After a few breaths, Mrs. Han bowed and said in a warm voice: "Tian'an, you are tired."

Zhang Rang said seriously: "Judging from King Qin's ability, this is the most suitable opportunity for Lord Chang'an, and it may also be Lord Chang'an's only opportunity!"

"Princess, there is no need to worry about insufficient planning. Zhang is willing to serve the princess and help An Jun reach the top!"

"If you miss this opportunity, King Qin's control over the court will definitely increase significantly. It will be almost impossible for Lord Chang'an to seek a big position!"

"Princess, please think twice!"

Ying Chengyu stepped forward and said quietly: "My mother said that Zhang Tianan is tired."

"Then Zhang Tianan must be really tired."

Zhang Rang's sincere face turned into panic in a second. He shrank to the wall and said in a shocked voice:

"Zhang is tired! Very, very tired!"

"Don't come in!"

"Xiao'er!" Mrs. Han scolded, then bowed and saluted: "Since Zhang Tianan is tired, it's time to rest."

"Thank you Zhang Tianan for this good advice. If Zhang Tianan needs it, he can order the servants in the palace at will, or directly inform the housekeeper Zhang Ming, and Zhang Ming will make arrangements."

After bidding farewell to Mrs. Han and watching the two figures go away outside the window, Zhang Rang murmured softly: "Zhang who needs to be reminded has already been reminded."

"Indecisiveness leads to disaster!"

"If you really want to be powerful, you will take this opportunity to fight to the death with King Qin."

"If you miss this opportunity, don't even have the slightest thought about that great person in your life, otherwise you will suffer a big disaster!"

After leaving the guest house, Mrs. Han looked at Ying Chenglong worriedly: "Xiao'er, don't think too much."

"At least you made the right choice."

Ying Chengqiao smiled: "Don't worry, mother and concubine, my son is fine."

"I'm used to it now."

Sixteen years of experience made Ying Chengxuan realize a truth.

Just because the ancients knew little doesn’t mean they are stupid!

It is indeed difficult for me to compete with many powerful ministers who have a long history in the court's struggle for power.

But there are still my mother-in-law and eldest brother standing behind me.

It depends on whether my elder brother plays to death or not, and you will be finished!
