Zhang Yi sat by the window and looked up at the window. The soft breeze was blowing, as if a gentle hand was caressing his cheek.

But now! Zhang Yi's face showed sadness, and his heart looked particularly solemn.

"well!"

He sighed and asked: "Madam, for the past ten years or so, I have been a prince, and then Zhang Han. I have lived a life of fear every day."

"It is true that my talent is not unparalleled in the world, but even if there are people in the world, only Gongsun Yan of Northern Yan, Xu Meng of Qin, Xu Yeling of Qi, and Xiao Huangqi of Chu can compare with them. If you are a hermit, let's talk about it again. .”

"But! There is no enlightened master who can let me do my best to help him. Could it be! Are all the princes in the world just mediocre people?"

Zhang Yi is not without talent, nor is he incompetent, on the contrary! Zhang Yi is known as the Poison Master. This title is not earned for nothing, but because he is so talented that he has never met a truly enlightened master. Thinking back then, he could be considered as the prince Dongfang Zhi who respectfully invited him here.

But what happened later! The result is self-evident. After Dongfangzhi became the crown prince, he indulged in drinking and having fun all day long and lost the desire to make progress. However, several subsequent plans were unsuccessful. The prince's failure had a great relationship with his own character.

Later, there was the Xuandemen Incident. Before the defeat, he took his whole family and escaped from the imperial capital while taking advantage of the civil strife. With his eyes and wisdom, he had naturally realized that if Prince Dongfangzhi could not capture Xuandemen for a long time, it was destined that Prince Dongfangzhi would not be able to ascend the throne after all.

And now! Just bring the whole family to Zhengzhou, where Zhang Han lives alone in a state, costing tens of thousands. Moreover, he had some relatives with his own family. In order to make a living, he had no choice but to seek refuge with Zhang Han, and after a long time, he was planning a way out.

actually! He already knew that Dongfang Yu was located in Beiliang and had strong military strength. How could his ambition be trapped by a single state. In the fight for world hegemony, the first place he conquered was Dingzhou; then he attacked Zhengzhou.

Secretly, he had also made a lot of preventive preparations, but this guy Zhang Han wasted his position as the overlord of the princes in the state. It is ridiculous to say that it is extremely impossible to say that the King of Qin is a member of the imperial court, conquering the state and striving for hegemony in the world.

No one with some brains would say such a thing. Just ask! How can a prince who has generals like clouds, soldiers like tigers, and top-notch technology under his command be able to satisfy a single state? His ambition must be for the world.

His wife touched Zhang Yi's shoulder with her delicate palms. There was worry and distress in her eyes, and she said softly: "I don't understand what you counselors are thinking."

"But I know that you are talented and ambitious. You have been determined to assist the Ming Lord since you were a child. In the early days, you were able to observe the astronomical phenomena and predict that the world would be in chaos and that the Great War would change its dynasty. From that time on, I felt that you would definitely I am not a mediocre person, and I will definitely do nothing wrong if I marry you in this life."

generally! A powerful person knows astronomy from the top to geography from the bottom, think of Xu Meng and Gongsun Yan, this is the case!

But Zhang Yi has always been frivolous, with high eyes and low hands! Mediocre people may not be able to catch his eye. Of course, apart from being forced by life.

well!

Zhang Yi still sighed, raised his arm, and put his palm on the latter's vest, feeling a little guilty in his heart, "But up to now, I am still just a mediocre person, doing nothing, but I have suffered a lot for you and my son."

Don't underestimate his wife. Earlier, she was also a famous lady in Hebei. His son, named Zhang Xun, is now seven years old. Under the instillation of Zhang Yi's knowledge and the good education of his wife, his chest has been filled with strange books and poems since he was a child.

Especially the "poison", but he completely inherited his father.

"Since my husband wants to surrender to the enemy and choose the Ming Dynasty, why not join the King of Qin?"

"I know that although the King of Qin is warlike, he can rule the Lower Beiliang and once prospered. His ambitions are self-evident! When treating talents, he should be courteous and virtuous, and he should look after them three times. With his talents, the King of Qin will definitely appreciate him. " His wife said.

Hear this! Zhang Yi suddenly felt a little excited in her heart.

King Qin was called the Holy King by everyone in the world. Compared to the time when Emperor Gaozu was conquering the Dawu River, he was also very ambitious.

If he can take refuge in the King of Qin, with his talents, he will definitely become the right-hand man of the King of Qin.

"But..." Zhang Yi hesitated.

He had framed the King of Qin several times. During the Northern Liang period, it was his plan to incite the nobles of Beiliang to attack the King of Qin. Later, he united with the Liao Kingdom to get rid of the King of Qin. However, the latter is too strong, just like the invincible Xiaoqiang, he just won't die.

"How will you know if your husband doesn't try?"

"hehe!"

"It's getting late, so I went to bed first. If my husband can't figure it out, think about it carefully, but don't catch a cold." The wife reminded her before going to bed and getting ready to sleep.

Zhang Yi, on the other hand, fell into endless contemplation.

If the King of Qin's courtesy and corporal were a wise master, would he really embarrass someone who had been against him before?

Elusive and unpredictable.

"That's it! If the King of Qin is really a wise master, I will do my best to assist him! If he is a tyrant, then I will recognize him, but it's just a head!" Zhang Yi thought.

But before that, he had to give King Qin a big gift.

What is this gift not? But Zhengzhou stepped on his feet. The land of the world must be inhabited by capable people. It is a joke that a waste like Zhang Han can defend his foundation in Zhengzhou with just a few soldiers and a few cities.

A speechless night!

Dawn in a blink of an eye!

When the sun rose, Zhang Yi had already started working on his big plan.

In advance, he naturally sent his cronies to send a personal letter to Liu Wenqin.

Liu Wenqin had an army of 60,000 under his command. He captured the city and withdrew at least 10,000 troops. Naturally, there were not many troops who could truly compete with Zhang Han.

Fifty thousand people, against fifty thousand people. But for the most attacking party, it would be extremely difficult to attack Zhengzhou City by force. The casualties will naturally be huge, but what if! Bring the main force of Zhengzhou into a head-on battle with Liu Wenqin's Qin army. The result! Naturally it goes without saying.

Dongfang Yu, who was in Han County at this time, naturally stationed his army here and stopped advancing. Of course, Bai Qi's 20,000 vanguard army has already set off for Dingzhou.

But Dongfang Yu's main force was stationed in Han County, but he made no move to send troops.

no way! Hanjun is a large county, with a population of more than 500,000. The grain fields around Hanjun are also cultivated in thousands of fields. It can be said that Dehan County can obtain at least one-third of Dingzhou's food and one-fifth of its population.
