Although Zhang Ji gave Ying Zheng a reassuring look, Ying Zheng couldn't really feel at ease.
That's Zhao Ji!
Others don’t understand Zhao Ji, so doesn’t he?
If Zhao Ji had such a structure and vision, he would have been able to get Zhao Ji's support to fight against various factions early on, and why would he have to work so hard.
But Ying Zheng couldn't show his distrust of Zhao Ji. After all, this was in front of the ministers. If he showed any signs of discord between mother and son, it would inevitably be true.
Just when Ying Zheng and the ministers were confused, Zhang Ji stepped out slowly and showed a file with a black dragon on it in front of everyone, but it was facing the ministers with a black dragon pattern.
"Great Qin Black Dragon Scroll Sect!"
"What is the urgent military situation that leads to the use of the Black Dragon Scroll?"
The ministers were talking a lot. Even though the ministers in the hall were all ministers of the Qin State, the only Black Dragon Scroll they had seen was when Lord Xinling led the five-nation coalition to attack Qin a few years ago. At that time, the late King Zhuang Xiang was still on the throne. hour.
However, some courtiers were keenly aware that Zhang Ji was actually standing beside the Queen Mother and holding the Black Dragon Scroll of Qin.
They speculated on the reason, but no matter what they guessed, it was obvious that the matter was approved by the King of Qin and the Queen Mother. Otherwise, Zhang Ji would not be qualified to do this, and they did not make any stupid sense.
Didn’t you see that even Lu Buwei, the prime minister, didn’t say anything?
Naturally, Zhang Ji didn't care about the gazes and reactions of the ministers, and said in a clear voice: "The leader of the Luowang Chu Kingdom Branch Altar reported secretly that the King of Chu decided to cease war with South Korea half a month ago and wanted to form a six-nation alliance. Wei, South Korea, Zhao, Yan, and Wei sent envoys.”
Zhang Ji's words were like thunder across Xianyang Palace.
Together!
Qin was very familiar with this term.
Since King Huiwen, the Qin State has experienced four consolidations.
In the third year of King Zhou Shenliang's reign, Wei Prime Minister Gongsun Yan paired up with the five kingdoms to unite Wei, Zhao, Han, Yan, and Chu to attack Qin. At the same time, he persuaded Yiqu to attack Qin's flank.
In the seventeenth year of King Nan of Zhou, Qi, Han, and Wei were afraid that Qin would continue to expand. They took advantage of the fact that the Qin army was exhausted from long battles and the main army had not returned from Bashu, so they jointly attacked Qin.
In the 28th year of King Nan of Zhou Dynasty, Qi, Zhao, Wei, Han, and Yan agreed to join forces, with Lord Mengchang as the commander-in-chief of the coalition, and led the five-nation coalition to attack Qin.
However, in the third year of King Zhuangxiang of Qin, the state of Qin lost two kings (King Zhaoxiang of Qin and King Xiaowen of Qin) in three consecutive years. Wei, Zhao, Han, Chu, and Yan seized the opportunity of Qin's internal instability and formed a coalition, led by Lord Xinling. He commanded the five-nation coalition to attack Qin, defeated the Qin army outside the river, and pursued it to Hangu Pass.
Therefore, if all the countries did not join forces during the reign of the previous Qin kings, the reigning King of Qin might wonder whether the countries looked down on him, and it was quite possible that he had pulled him so hard that the other countries were too lazy to join forces and attack.
However, the Qin State today is no better than in the past.
In the past, every time they joined forces, it was because Qin was so powerful that the other countries felt threatened. But this time, the other countries felt Qin's weakness, so they sent troops to join forces.
Although Zheng Guo built canals for Qin, although it could increase Qin's grain production several times, it was ultimately draining Qin's national power. If Lu Buwei hadn't worked hard every time on government affairs, increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, plus Zhang Ji's paper Books and books have brought a lot of income to Qin State, otherwise Qin State would be really in danger this time.
Moreover, the weakening of national power is only one of the manifestations of Qin's weakness.
Today, within the Qin State, there are many factions and serious power struggles.
The Xiangbang faction represented by Lu Buwei, the Empress Dowager faction represented by Lao Ai, the Old Qin faction, the Chu faction, the Han faction and other factions are constantly fighting. However, Ying Zheng, the King of Qin, has not yet crowned himself as pro-government, and is unable to reconcile the various factions. The balance between them gathers the power at one point.
Therefore, it is inevitable that some of the ministers were panicked and discussed a lot.
"quiet!"
Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the throne, shouted lowly.
Today, Zhao Ji is dressed in a black and red phoenix robe. She is graceful, dignified, and not angry. Her shouts silenced the ministers, and the palace suddenly became silent. They raised their heads to look at the Queen Mother.
At this time, Zhao Ji's face had no expression, and there was no sign of happiness, anger, sorrow, or joy. Her eyes were slightly condensed, which made the ministers inexplicably frightened and did not dare to say any more.
When Zhao Ji saw that the ministers were no longer speaking, her thin lips opened slightly.
"gentlemen."
Zhao Ji's eyes fell on Zhang Ji, and there was a faint smile in her eyes that showed no emotion or sorrow.
Zhang Ji nodded and continued: "In the third year of King Zhou Shenliang's reign, Wei Xianggong Sun Yan united the six kingdoms of Wei, Zhao, Han, Yan, Chu, and Yiqu to attack Qin Hezong. The Qin army's general "think tank" Ying Ji was in Xiuyu. Defeated the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces and beheaded 82,000 people!"
"In the seventeenth year of King Nan of Zhou Dynasty, Qi and Han joined forces. The Wei army defected and attacked the Qin army. The Qin army was defeated. However, because of the discord among the coalition forces, they fought for territory and had internal discord. In the end, they retreated hastily, ended the alliance, and gave The State of Qin took advantage of the land of Bashu Tianfu to restore its national power."
"In the twenty-eighth year of King Nan of Zhou Dynasty, Qi, Zhao, Wei, Han, and Yan agreed to join forces. Qin took the initiative to cancel the imperial title and returned part of the city to other countries, thus successfully disrupting the joint effort. Zhao, Wei, and Han benefited Li immediately withdrew his troops and returned home, so Qi and Yan had no choice but to retreat, and the third alliance collapsed just as it took shape."
"In the third year of the reign of Emperor Zhuang Xiang, Lord Xinling defeated the Qin army in the battle outside the river. He pursued it all the way to the Hangu Pass, but he coveted the land of South Korea and launched a surprise attack on South Korea. As a result, the countries were not trusting each other, and Lord Xinling also completely lost his place in the world. credibility in the world.”
"From this point of view, when the Qin State is united, no matter whether it wins or loses, the other countries will always have no choice but to defeat the Qin State due to discord. It has never really seriously damaged the Qin State, let alone destroyed our great Qin!"
"In my opinion, the Qin State now has strong soldiers and horses. Although the national treasury is empty, I, the old Qin people, are united as one and are not afraid of death or the alliance of other countries."
"But Qin also has a hidden danger that has not been resolved so far."
"This problem is like the discord among nations, which is extremely harmful."
Lu Buwei, who was in the audience, narrowed his eyes slightly and cast a sharp gaze on Zhang Ji with his bright eyes.
"Good boy!"
At this time, if Lu Buwei still couldn't see Zhang Ji's purpose, he would be sorry for Ying Zichu's trust and trust back then.
Those eyes swept over Zong Zhengling Ying Mu and Queen Mother Zhao Ji. The doubts in their hearts were gradually solved, and they couldn't help but admire Zhang Ji secretly.
And as if he felt Lu Buwei's gaze, Zhang Ji smiled back.
He didn't know if Lu Buwei would stop him, but it was useless even if Lu Buwei wanted to.
Zhang Jiduan shouted, turned around in front of the ministers, and bowed to Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, please!"
"The crowning ceremony is to support the country's governance!"
