Chen Ke smiled and shook his head, looking very helpless.
He turned around, looked at Yingrong and Dong'an Jun who were standing there, looking upright, and said, "What Dong'an Jun and Luo Yang Jun said just now puzzles me."
"I have a few questions. Can you two answer them?"
Although Chen Ke's words were said to be questions, they seemed very firm, making people feel their hearts tremble when they heard them.
Dong'an Jun and Yingrong felt a little solemn in their hearts.
They all know that if they want to win over Chen Ke in terms of words, they will reach the sky without any objection.
Chen Ke is almost like the reincarnation of Zhang Zi and the possession of Su Zi. Almost no one in the world can defeat him in a battle of words.
However, if you want to get past Chen Ke, you must have a battle of words.
No one can escape.
Yingrong let out a slight breath, and then stood up. The expression on his face seemed unchanged, but his heart had already changed a thousand times.
He looked at Chen Ke and said, "I wonder if Chen Fengchang has any questions?"
Ying Rong decided to strike preemptively: "Do you have doubts about Prime Minister Li's credit, or do you have doubts about Old General Wang's credit?"
"Or maybe you have questions about the merits of the Great Qin clan?"
He stood there with a little anger in his voice, as if he was complaining about these people.
Chen Ke didn't care at all and just smiled.
"Why would Mr. Luo Yang put a charge on me in the first place?"
"Whether it is the merit of the clan, the merit of General Wang, Prime Minister Li, or even the merit of all the ministers in the court, I have no doubts."
“Their credit is definitely there.”
After Chen Ke finished his explanation, he smiled and said, "Now, can Luo Yangjun answer my question?"
Yingrong looked startled and turned slightly red: "Chen Fengchang, please ask."
Chen Ke looked at him with a hint of confusion in his expression: "First of all, the first question, about the merits of the clan."
"The contributions that Luo Yangjun and Dong'an Jun keep saying are of course indelible, but the question is, what does these contributions have to do with you?"
"What does it have to do with the current clan?"
Chen Ke looked at Dong'an Jun and Luo Yangjun and asked confusedly: "Whether it is Mi Bazi, King Xiaowen, or King Wu."
"They are all direct blood relatives of His Majesty, and they are also the King and Queen Mother of Great Qin."
"Of course you can say that they are also members of the Great Qin clan——"
"But what do the achievements of these clans have to do with you?"
"Is it just because you are their descendants and have some blood relationship that you can rely on their merits to threaten His Majesty today?"
Chen Ke took a step forward, with a hint of cruelty in his voice.
"If that's the case, Mi Bazi is His Majesty's direct ancestor, King Wu, King Xiaowen, King Zhuang Xiang, etc. His bloodline is closer to His Majesty's than yours."
"Then, why can't these achievements be credited to His Majesty?"
He glared at Luo Yangjun who was standing there, pulled out a stack of paper from his sleeve, and threw it directly in Luo Yangjun's face.
"Pacha——"
When the crisp voice fell, Luo Yangjun had a look of confusion on his face, and the faces of the surrounding ministers also showed surprise.
That was Lord Luo Yang.
He is a blood relative of the Great Qin clan, and he is personally designated as "Jun" by His Majesty!
Chen Fengchang just threw things in other people's faces without mercy?
Suddenly, the sound of gasping for air could be heard in the hall, and Fusu, who was standing at the front, swallowed subconsciously.
The teacher deserves to be a teacher.
Li Si blinked slightly, looked at Wang Jian at the side, coughed slightly, took a step forward, and stood in front of some of the old ministers.
These old ministers are all elders of the clan who pay attention to "etiquette". Now that they see the dignified Lord Luo Yang being treated like this, they are trembling with anger and are about to come forward.
Seeing Wang Jian and Li Si's actions, the old men's faces turned purple with anger, but there was nothing they could do.
With these two around, they really didn't dare to do anything.
After all, they just have a higher status, but in front of these two people, they mean nothing.
"And you."
Chen Ke's voice was cold, like the cold wind in winter causing pain on a person's face.
"Luo Yangjun, even if these achievements really belong to the clan, it seems that it is not your turn to speak, right?"
"Do you really think that Lord Dong'an and your father were so strict and airtight back then?"
"Do you really think that His Majesty doesn't know anything?"
Chen Ke's voice was full of anger and regret. He looked at Luo Yangjun and said, "The person who protected your mother back then was your majesty's mother, the current queen mother."
"But even if she is the Queen Mother, can she cover the sky with one hand in the Qin Dynasty?"
"Don't you need to think about it?"
"What did your father do in order to compete with His Majesty for the throne back then? Does your father, who did such things, still have the face and kindness to the Queen Mother?"
Luo Yangjun's face was suddenly slapped. He originally wanted to angrily reprimand, but after hearing Chen Ke's words, he froze there and did not dare to move.
What does it mean?
The surrounding ministers also looked at Luo Yangjun with surprise on their faces. Some elders from the clan who originally wanted to step forward slowly stopped.
You look at me and I look at you, they are both too scared to move.
They thought of something, but weren't sure.
Is the person competing with Your Majesty for the throne Luoyang Jun Yingrong's father? Who will Yingrong's father be?
There is only one person with such identity and qualifications, and he actually competed with His Majesty for the throne back then...
If it were not for the help of Prime Minister Lu Buwei, I am afraid that the person sitting on the throne today would not be the current His Majesty...
The young master has become a dragon!
The son of King Zhuang Xiang and the younger brother of His Majesty the First Emperor.
The powerful contender for the throne of King Qin back then even overpowered the current His Majesty.
However.....
The crime committed by Master Chengjiao was so serious that even those who supported the feudal system for profit began to waver in their hearts.
Chen Ke sneered and continued: "If you think about it carefully, your father almost killed the Queen Mother and her son on the road, and they suffered many hardships."
"For such a person, how could the Queen Mother have the compassion to take care of his posthumous son so that his posthumous son could survive before it was too late for her to hate him?"
"Jun Luo Yang, Jun Luo Yang."
"Think about it, if someone hadn't interceded in front of the Queen Mother and hinted that the Queen Mother would help you and save you, would you still be alive today?"
Luo Yangjun stood there with a confused look on his face, not knowing what to say.
He said in a daze: "Who is that person?"
who's that person?
Upon hearing this question, many ministers present raised their heads and looked at Ying Zheng sitting on the throne.
Besides Ying Zheng, who else could have such great energy?
Could it be that Ying Zheng saved that man's posthumous son?
But why?
Many ministers did not understand this, including Chen Ke.
Ying Zheng sat there, looking at Luo Yangjun below and Chen Ke standing there. He knew all the questions of everyone present.
He just remained silent without saying a word.
The reason why this posthumous son was still alive was because of his father, King Zhuang Xiang.
No one knows about this matter. There are only three people who know about it, one is King Zhuang Xiang, one is Lu Buwei, and the other is Ying Zheng himself.
King Zhuang Xiang had already found him and Lu Buwei before he died, and explained what happened next.
This was prepared early because King Zhuang Xiang knew that his health was not good.
In front of Lu Buwei, he made Ying Zheng swear that even if Chengjiao commits a major crime in the future, he will not be allowed to cut off his incense.
Of course, King Zhuang Xiang also said that this oath can only save Chengjiao's incense once.
It was precisely because of King Zhuang Xiang's message that Lu Buwei easily tried his best to help him become the King of Qin.
Of course, the deeper reason is that Lu Buwei wants to "live with strange things" again.
Ying Zheng said nothing, but he did not deny the matter. Failure to deny it was equivalent to acquiescence.
Luo Yangjun stood there with a blank look on his face.
Chen Ke, on the other hand, took advantage of the victory and said, "Your father committed a heinous crime back then, which caused our Great Qin to almost collapse in one battle."
"What qualifications and dignity do you have to inherit the merits of the Queen Mother Mi and the King of Qin?"
Dong'an Jun took a step forward at this time, his eyes were sharp, as if he had become a different person.
He was not a good person to begin with, and he did not agree to the plan from the beginning just to help Luo Yangjun win and take revenge. He was always after his own throne and power!
"Ying Rong is not qualified, so what about me?"
"I am the brother of King Zhuangxiang, the son of King Xiaowen, the grandson of King Zhaoxiang, and the great-great-grandson of Queen Mother Mi."
"Am I qualified to inherit the merits of King Qin's clan?"
Chen Ke said unhurriedly: "Dongan Jun is probably because he missed my words, so he asked such a ridiculous question so eagerly."
"What I said was that "even if there is merit that can be inherited," I did not acknowledge this "merit." "
Chen Ke flicked his sleeves and looked very calm.
"What does the clan have to do with you back then? Did Lord Dong'an ever make any contribution to the unification of the Qin Dynasty?"
Before Lord Dong'an could speak, Chen Ke said again: "The other thing is that Lord Dong'an and Lord Luo Yang just used General Li Xin and the letter of remonstrance and expulsion to attack His Majesty."
"What's more, if it hadn't been for General Wang and Prime Minister Li Si, the unification of Qin would not have happened today. This really makes people want to laugh."
"Let me ask you, Prime Minister Li Si wrote a letter of remonstrance and expulsion. If His Majesty had not humbly accepted the advice, reflected on himself, and accepted this "letter of remonstrance and expulsion," even if Prime Minister Li wrote a hundred letters of remonstrance and expulsion, what would have happened? What's the role? "
"Back then, General Li Xin was accidentally defeated. His Majesty personally went to ask General Wang to come out."
"Let me ask you, if he were not a famous king in the prosperous times, if he were the King of Qin, would he have such a big heart and spend a lot of money to invite a minister?"
Chen Ke was slow and unhurried, but he pushed Dong'an Jun, Luo Yangjun and many clan members into the corner step by step.
"That means the kings of Zhao, Han, Yan, Wei, Qi and Chu back then."
"Which one of them has such a big heart??"
"Just now you talked about the merits of the ministers of the Qin Dynasty, the merits of General Wang, and the merits of Prime Minister Li Si."
"I'm a little confused."
"In the hearts of Lord Dong'an and Lord Luoyang, as well as many other clans, is there no merit from His Majesty?"
"Are there no virtuous people in the other six countries?"
"Aren't there any great talents?"
"Among the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, our Qin State has two, but Zhao State also has two."
"Lian Po, Li Mu."
"Their talents are not inferior to General Wang, but what will be their outcome?"
"Lian Po was questioned by King Zhao, so he changed his general before the battle, and replaced him with "Zhao Kuo" who could only talk on paper. Then he was defeated in the battle of Changping, and our army of 400,000 was killed by Da Qin. "
"Li Mu was suspected of being tricked and killed by King Zhao. From then on, there was a saying that "if Li Mu dies, Zhao will die." "
"Don't they have great military exploits?"
"Let's talk about Prime Minister Li Si. Who is Prime Minister Li Si?"
"Prime Minister Li is from Shangcai of the Chu State, but he has never been used by the Chu State. After becoming a disciple of Xunzi, he came to our Qin State and was used by our Qin State."
"In our great Qin, there are many talented people who are not from our old Qin, but His Majesty's mind is as broad as the sea, and he accommodates us."
Chen Ke had a ashamed smile on his face: "I was not from the old Qin, but now I am a Qin official and a Qin person."
"If I are transferred to the Kingdom of Zhao, can King Zhao use me? Can he use me without suspicion?"
"Three years ago, I pointed out the shortcomings of the county system, and His Majesty forgave me, and even made me the teacher of the eldest son Fusu."
"If it were King Zhao, and I pointed out a policy problem of King Zhao in public, would King Zhao let me continue to live?"
"Even if you let me continue to live, will you still reuse me?"
Chen Ke changed the subject, looked at Mr. Dong'an in front of him and said, "Don't talk about me, just talk about you."
"If it were King Zhao, he would have pulled you out and beheaded you long ago. How could you still have the chance to stand here and accuse His Majesty with nonsense?"
Chen Ke turned around and looked around at the people around him.
At this time, Chen Ke was so powerful that he looked like a giant.
"That's where I put my words."
"I'm not afraid of General Wang, Prime Minister Li, and many ministers questioning me."
"There are four reasons why I, the Qin Dynasty, can unify the world."
"One thing is the time of heaven. The world has been in turmoil for hundreds of years. The world and the capital of Guizhou no longer want to continue fighting."
"The second is the geographical advantage. I, the Qin Dynasty, occupy the Hangu Pass in the west and sit back and watch the battles between the countries in the east."
"The third principle is harmony. Shang Yang's reform has enhanced the combat capability of our army in the Qin Dynasty. It is the result of the leader of Guizhou Province in our Qin Dynasty, the contribution of our officials in the reform of the Qin Dynasty, and the contribution of our Qin Dynasty in the past six generations." The merits of a virtuous monarch. "
"However, these three points are not the most important. The most important is the fourth point."
Chen Ke exhaled softly, then opened his arms, looked at the many ministers and said, "Fourth, His Majesty is here."
"Without Your Majesty, talented people will not be put to good use, and the leaders of Guizhou will not be able to achieve success. Or they will stick to the benefits of Hangu without thinking about progress, and the remaining heroes of the sixth generation will be in vain."
