Twelve days ago, the Yan Kingdom was in court.
King Yan Xiyi couldn't afford to be ill, but fortunately there was still Yan Dan, a talented and well-known prince in Yan State.
The once bustling court now became a little empty and lonely because Yan Chunjun and others were assassinated by Wei Zhuang.
Although some positions have been temporarily taken by others, some positions can only be decided after King Yan Xi wakes up.
Before Yan Dan became independent in the court, she was filled with emotions.
He had an inexplicable feeling for Wei Zhuang.
Logically speaking, he is a disciple of the Mohist family. Wei Zhuang killed the former Mohist giant Six Finger Black Man. He is the prince of the Yan Kingdom. Wei Zhuang also killed more than a dozen ministers of the Yan Kingdom. The relationship between him and Wei Zhuang should be sworn enemies.
But on the other hand, Yan Dan understood that Wei Zhuang had helped him, and helped him too much.
The Six-fingered Black Man is a true hero. He has a different view on the war between the Seven Kingdoms than Yan Dan. one.
But when the Six-fingered Black Man was still there, he suppressed him a lot as the prince of the Yan Kingdom. At the same time, he did not agree with his concept of resisting Qin at all.
Yan Dan was not the only one in the Mohist family to rebel against Qin. How many people in the world had their families destroyed because of the war against Qin?
But the Six-Fingered Black Man didn't think so. At the same time, the Six-Fingered Black Man also repeatedly rejected the invitations of Xiaoyaozi, the head of the Renzong, and Kui Tianguang, the peasant hero, to join forces to fight against the Qin Dynasty.
It can be said that with the six-fingered black man around, he can't move at all in the Mo family.
But Wei Zhuang's appearance changed everything.
Wei Zhuang killed the Six-fingered Black Man, and then, with the help of many Mohist anti-Qin people, Yan Dan successfully became a Mohist giant after a few months.
And now, when he was cornered by these sycophants in the court, it was Wei Zhuang who came to his rescue again.
Although the "pro-Qin faction" has deep roots and a very wide scope of influence, more than a dozen core figures in the court have left in succession. At this time, they have also suffered heavy losses. Some of the losers, their masters are already dead at this moment. I don't dare to go against Yan Dan anymore.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Minister A shouted.
This is an old minister of the Yan State, who likes to remain neutral in the court.
"The king fainted and Lord Yan Chun was killed. Please ask His Highness the Crown Prince to temporarily take charge of the government until the king wakes up!" Minister Jia said righteously.
Yan Dan and many people's eyes lit up, and at this moment, many people below began to curse in their hearts.
Who knows if King Xi of Yan will still be able to wake up, and if he wakes up and hears the news that Wei Zhuang killed more than a dozen ministers in a row, but everyone in the Yan Kingdom is helpless, will he die from anger?
After all, a country's court was turned upside down by a small assassin, but the appearance of being helpless was enough to make the world a laughing stock.
Although the Yan State has a small land and a sparse population, it is the oldest among the seven heroes of the Warring States Period.
It is really shameful for such a country with such a profound foundation to be suppressed by one person.
But due to a series of coincidences, they were really helpless against Wei Zhuang.
This period of time is too precious. Once Yan Dan is allowed to take over the government temporarily, they will never have a chance again.
But they all looked sad and didn't know how to refute.
After all, his reputation is justified.
The pro-Qin faction killed more than a dozen of Yan Dan's political opponents in succession. At this time, few people dared to refute Yan Dan.
"I second the proposal!" Minister Yi immediately stood up to cheer for Yan Dan and supported Yan Dan.
He is one of the few anti-Qin factions in the court. Before, the pro-Qin faction was so powerful that he did not dare to speak out to support Yan Dan. But now that the court has vague intentions of changing the dynasty, he naturally has to stand up.
When something has its beginning, there will be a second one, a third one...
"I also second the proposal."
"Prince Yan's return is highly anticipated..."
…
In this way, with the "unified recognition" of the Yan Kingdom's court, Yan Dan began his "ruling career."
Everyone in the Yan Kingdom's court looked "joyful".
"Your Highness, I have my own merits." Minister B stood up and said.
"Old General, please speak." Yan Dan did not dare to be negligent. The person who spoke was an old man from the Yan Kingdom's court and a veteran general in the army. He was very senior and his words were of great weight.
"Your Highness, I think this matter is like the cession of Dukang from the Qin State. Can you discuss it with the Qin State?" Minister B hesitated for a moment and then said.
Dukang is too important to the Yan State, because Dukang is an important grain-producing place in the Yan State. If Dukang is lost, how many people in the Yan State will have no food to eat. More importantly, there will be insufficient food, so how can they raise troops?
Moreover, if the Qin Dynasty gains control of the land, its national power will inevitably rise. When will this situation end?
Moreover, ceding Dukang would greatly dampen the anti-Qin sentiments of the people of Yan State. He knew that some decisions made by the higher-ups could greatly affect public opinion.
The three kingdoms of Han, Zhao, and Wei have been destroyed. If you act like this, don't you put the Yan State on the chopping board and hand the swords and tools that slaughtered the Yan State to the Qin State?
…
Yandu, Luowang stronghold.
There were only three people left in the room: Duan Shui, Jing Salamander, and Zhi Ri. Zhi Ri was still dressed in the same Qin army uniform, slowly pacing back and forth in the room, holding the Zhi Sun Sword in his left hand and slinging it behind his back.
Pacing back and forth, as if thinking.
His steps were steady, which showed his extraordinary calmness.
Being able to pretend to be calm when encountering something is experience; being able to be truly calm when something is happening is pattern.
Obviously, Zhenri is a person with rich structure and experience.
"Everyone, what do you think?" Zhan Ri spoke first, breaking the silence in the room.
Duanshui was still dressed as a dead soldier, leaning silently against the wall.
Tian Yan, dressed in pure and seductive women's clothing, knelt down in front of the table.
The sentence "covering the sun" is actually asking Tian Yan.
I don't think it would be a problem if the water was cut off.
"Luo Wang's power in Yandu has suffered unprecedented heavy losses. How should we solve it?" Zhanri continued to ask, and his voice, as deep as from hell, came from under the mask.
Duanshui remained silent, and he didn't know what to say.
"The forces of Luo Sheng have suffered unprecedented trauma, and this certainly comes from Wei Zhuang in Quicksand.
Wei Zhuang seemed to have made an agreement with Yan Dan. Although he seemed to have no connection with Yan Dan, it happened that every courtier of the Yan Kingdom he killed was Yan Dan's political enemy.
Wei Zhuang's action has caused an imbalance of power in the Yan Kingdom's court. In the battles in the court, either the east wind suppressed the west wind, or the west wind suppressed the east wind. Now Prince Dan of Yan can be said to be proud of the spring breeze.
What I'm worried about is, if Yan Dan is allowed to take power, will the damage to Qin and even Luo Sheng be greater?
I just don’t know what Lord Zhao Gao means? After all, only by knowing what he means can we take the next step. Tian Yan said slowly, analyzing the current stakes.
Although it is true that Luo Wen chose the Empire, and it is not wrong to say so, Luo Wen and the Empire are now allies sharing weal and woe on the same chariot, and the Empire's loss is Luo Wen's loss.
Moreover, those from Qin State were staring at Yandu, and the situation no longer allowed them to retreat.
This can be regarded as the butterfly effect. Wei Zhuang did not mention this in the original work.
Tian Yan found it strange. She felt that Wei Zhuang was helping Yan Dan, but for a while it was difficult to find out why.
