Within three days, the two cities of Changzi and Huguan were lost one after another due to the attack by Wang Ben and others. Only Tunliu was left and was besieged by Wang Jian's own army. The originally massive rebellion was ruthlessly suppressed in an instant.
Just like a joke, after everyone listened and laughed, it ended, leaving only a message that was widely circulated.
…
Stay in Tunliu City.
Chang'an Juncheng was not moved at all when he heard the news of the fall of the Second City. After he came to his senses, he realized that this rebellion could not succeed at all. It was launched too hastily and without any preparation, just like a man who had lost his mind. People act impulsively.
"Ha, maybe if I become a dragon, I will become a joke to future generations~"
Cheng Yu held the wine glass, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then drank the glass in one gulp.
He never thought that one day he would end up in the situation he is in now. After all, he underestimated the old foxes in the Qin State. Perhaps from the day he faced Lu Buwei, the outcome was doomed.
But now I want to understand this, so what!
It's all too late after all. There is no such thing as regret medicine in this world.
Fan Yuqi looked at Cheng Xi's expression and couldn't help but kneel down on one knee and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, there are still 80,000 soldiers in the city at the moment. It's not that we don't have the strength to fight. The general is willing to lead the army in person tomorrow. Wang Jian's decisive battle, if he wins, everything is still uncertain; if he loses, the king will take the opportunity to break out and go to the land of Zhao and Yan. In the future, perhaps with the help of the princes, we can kill the fake King of Qin and take back the state of Qin!"
"Do you believe this yourself?"
Cheng Yu put down his wine glass and shook his head, with a touch of relief in his eyes: "We have fallen into the enemy's conspiracy. This trap for me may have been dug long ago, just waiting for me to jump in!"
Said.
He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Fan Yuqi: "If you lose the battle tomorrow, remember not to resist stubbornly. Just surrender to Wang Jian and others. Based on your relationship with me, they will not kill you. After you are escorted back to Xianyang, you will definitely be summoned by Ying Zheng, and then you can hand this letter to him, which may save your life."
"Your Majesty, I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Without Your Majesty's appreciation, how would Fan Yuqi be like today? If I were defeated tomorrow, I would be willing to die with Your Majesty!"
Fan Yuqi frowned when he heard this, and without any hesitation, he raised his hands and said.
"If you die, your life will be in vain."
Cheng Yu stepped forward, reached out and patted Fan Yuqi's shoulder, and said slowly: "I know you are loyal, so I leave this matter to you. Now that the situation of defeat has been achieved, it is futile to continue to struggle. You, my king and my ministers Once this happens, I will consider your options."
After a pause, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Since ancient times, the only way to become a king or lose is to die, and I can afford to lose!"
When Fan Yuqi heard this, he quickly said: "Why do you care about temporary gains and losses? You should save your life and plan for the future!"
"If I don't die, some people won't feel at ease."
Cheng Yu sneered.
"Who are those people you are talking about?"
Fan Yuqi couldn't help but ask.
Cheng Yu looked at Fan Yuqi and said calmly: "You are just a general. Leading troops in battle is what you are good at. These things are beyond your control. If you really want to avenge me, just send this letter to me." Leave it to Ying Zheng and he will find out everything for me."….
Growing up together since childhood, he knew Ying Zheng very well. If the other party knew about this, he would definitely be suspicious.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will one day take root and sprout.
that's enough!
Fan Yuqi showed hesitation in his eyes, lowered his head and begged: "I still want to try it!"
"...Then let's try it."
Cheng Yu's eyes darkened slightly, and after a moment, he said calmly that he also needed a few days to prepare, and he was not willing to die here like this!
…
On the other side, the Qin army's main camp is in the tent.
Wang Jian is thinking about one thing, whether he should attack Tunliu by force. At present, the Chengyu rebels only have Tunliu, an isolated city left. The walls of this city are not high, so it is not difficult to attack them. But as the commander of an army, What he needs to consider is whether it's worth it.
There are nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in the city, all of whom are elites from the Qin State.
If there is a forceful attack, both sides will inevitably suffer huge casualties. This is not what Wang Jian wants to see.
The general on the side saw Wang Jian's hesitation and couldn't help but suggest: "General, you might as well try to persuade him to surrender!"
"Then try it!"
Wang Jian nodded and said lightly.
. . . . . . . .
This day.
In a hot spring in the side hall of Lanchi Palace, Zhao Jia was soaking in it, with his arms spread out, leaning on the edge of the pool, his head slightly raised, eyes closed, enjoying the tranquility and leisure of this moment, until a subtle sound came to his ears. He turned his head to look at the sound of footsteps.
What catches the eye is a pair of delicate feet, walking slowly with their heels on.
She moved lightly and gracefully, walked slowly to Zhao Jia and knelt down beside Zhao Jia. She leaned over to test the water, revealing the breathtaking weapon. She was really rich and generous, and it was so white that it was a bit dizzying.
Zhao Ji cast a charming glance at her little enemy who was enjoying themselves alone, and hummed: "The Ai family is busy with government affairs, but you are better off. You are soaking in the hot spring here in broad daylight, and you don't even know how to wait for the Ai family~"
She gently fiddled with the hot spring water with her slender jade fingers. When she realized that the water temperature was good, she put her feet in. At the same time, she leaned sideways next to Zhao Jia. Her jade fingers slid against Zhao Jia's skin, feeling the youthfulness and vitality. muscles.
Zhao Ji was wearing a red gauze dress at the moment, and her proud figure curves were looming.
Zhao Jia held Zhao Ji's feet and played with them. While caressing her calves, he asked with concern: "Why did it take so long today?"
"It's not because of what happened to Cheng Xi. He led his troops to rebel and made the Qin country uneasy. Now he is besieged in Tunliu, isolated and helpless, and is close to defeat. So there is a debate in the court about how to deal with Cheng Xi. I'm sorry. My head hurts from the noise~"
Zhao Ji didn't hide it from Zhao Jia, she put her arms around his neck, slid into the water, snuggled into his arms, rested her head on his shoulder, and said lazily.
She has become less and less interested in these things recently. If possible, she would like to stay with Zhao Jia all the time.
"What do you think about Cheng Yu?"
Zhao Jia hugged Zhao Ji, feeling the smoothness of her skin, but her eyes were clear, and she asked softly.
Zhao Ji lazily said: "Cheng Yu is young, and he may have been deceived by others to do such a bastard thing. The Ai family intends to save his life, but unfortunately the old man Lu Buwei does not agree. The Ai family is a member of the harem after all, so what? If you tell them, just let them quarrel."
The security could not be saved. The killers sent by Lu Buwei might already be on the way... Zhao Jia murmured in his heart that in the current Qin State, Lu Buwei deserved to dominate the government and the public. He could do whatever he really wanted.
You can even say: My rules are rules!
"What did the king say?"
Zhao Jia buried his head in Zhao Ji's neck and whispered.
Zhao Ji hugged Zhao Jia's head tightly, biting her lips lightly, as if suppressing something: "What can Zheng'er say? He has not yet been crowned, so he can only listen to the opinions of the ministers~"
"As his mother, why don't you help him?"
Hearing this, Zhao Jia felt a little stronger for Ying Zheng's injustice.
Zhao Ji was in pain, she glanced at Zhao Jia in her arms, and said angrily: "It hurts~ You know how to bully the Ai family~"
"Then do you like it?"
Zhao Jia moved his hands and said softly.
He was answered with a coy voice:
"Disgusting~".
