Longyang loves Qin

The man didn't speak in the usual straightforward way, but turned sideways to ensure that he could see both Ye Yu and Ying Zheng, and then asked in an alternative way of impeachment: "Dare to ask the dragon?" Yang Jun, do you have any kindness to Yao Shangqing?"

At this time, Ye Yu still didn't think he could come up with anything nonsense, so he replied in cooperation: "It's not a kindness, it's just an acquaintance in the early years."

He was also curious about how this had something to do with Yao Jia, and Yao Jia, who was facing upward, was also puzzled.

The man didn't ask Yao Jia's question, but changed the subject and asked: "Dare to ask Lord Longyang, with the Qin army's ability, it is really impossible to capture King Yan in Liaodong?"

Ye Yu's expression changed slightly, and he scolded as if offended: "What do you mean?"

What did he mean? Everyone present could hear it. It was clearly questioning Ye Yu's intention to let King Yan go.What Zhang Han was able to discover at the beginning, other people would naturally be able to find out if they searched to the death, but I have to say that his remarks are really bold.

The man remained silent, Ye Yu sneered and said, "King Yan died under my hands."

Seeing that Ye Yu seemed to be offended, the man remained unhurried, and asked again: "General Dare I, have you received your Majesty's secret order to attack the Marquis of Ji and the Kingdom of Chen?"

Ye Yu couldn't keep silent. Since he asked the first question, he would be at a disadvantage if he didn't answer the subsequent questions.

Therefore, he said without any concealment: "Never."

Even if he didn't say it, everyone present knew the answer. If he really got some secret decree, Ying Zheng would announce it after returning to the court at the latest.

But it didn't happen like this, but because Ying Zheng didn't pursue Ye Yu's behavior from the beginning to the end, and he still got the sweetness, the matter gradually subsided in the end.

After the third question, the man did not stop, but continued to ask the last question, "Dare to ask Lord Longyang——you knew the ownership of Jidi before you killed Yan?"

Jidi is Ye Yu's fief. Although only Ye Yu and Ying Zheng knew about this matter in Mieyan, there are clues to be found. The biggest clue is that Ye Yu has not been fief for a long time.

Ye Yu glanced at Ying Zheng who was sitting on the seat, and then looked at the man who was neither humble nor overbearing. His status was far inferior to him, but he came prepared to dare to question him in court, and said slowly: "So what?"

The man didn't answer, but just saluted him with a respectful and polite gesture. No one would have guessed that he was actually impeaching Ye Yu.

After getting the answers to Ye Yu's four questions, the man finally turned around, faced Ying Zheng and said, "I have heard that rebellion requires four most important conditions--people's hearts, ambitions, land, and money, and the rest are everything. It's next."

"Only with the hearts of the people can there be an army, only with ambition can one move forward, only with land can one have a breathing space to retreat, and only with money can one have food and grass, and Lord Longyang does not lack any of these four things."

At this point, he paused for a moment, and then the speed and tone of his speech began to change, "Yao Shangqing took thousands of gold to lobby for bribes for Qin, and now his family is rich, even the treasury is hard to match. In this way, Lord Longyang has military funds."

Yao Jia swung his sleeves and made a dissatisfied voice.

The man turned a deaf ear to him, and before Yao Jia could speak, he continued, "Lord Longyang is very famous in the army and among the heads of Guizhou, and even the soldiers at the frontier gates respect him very much. I even heard that even the survivors of Qidi respect him. His people, Lord Longyang's popular support can be seen.

He was honored and favored by His Majesty, and he knew that Jidi was his fiefdom, so when he was chasing King Yan, he intentionally released King Yan and was able to attack the Marquis of Ji and the Kingdom of Chen.These two countries are far away from the land of our Great Qin, and are useless to our Great Qin. They are not as good as those Rongdi, so why should they conquer them? "

The man's voice was sonorous and powerful, "It's all because Lord Longyang has the heart of disobedience! He bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister to His Majesty, but he stayed in a chaotic land for a long time. Raise its wings!"

Before he finished speaking, the man bowed to Yingzheng, and said in a sad voice: "The eagle and eagle have grown up in front of His Majesty's eyes, but they confuse His Majesty with the appearance of a bird, but I must not turn a blind eye! I hope Your Majesty will punish him. "

Ying Zheng also took it as a joke like Ye Yu at first, but the more he heard it, the more angry he was. The anger was not directed at Ye Yu who "had evil intentions", but at the doctor who impeached Ye Yu for an unwarranted crime.

"Aiqing loves the people like a son, and has made countless achievements in battle. He comforted the troubled people for me, but how did you say that he was ambitious?" Ying Zheng stood up, his face unable to hide his anger, "Your intentions are not right, you frame Zhongliang, come here! -"

The guards outside the hall moved.

But at this time, someone from the court stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I think what he said is true."

Ying Zheng looked at him with fiery eyes, which made him shrink back immediately.

One retreated, but another stood up and said: "Your Majesty, there is indeed something weird about what Lord Longyang did. He is the most arrogant person, and he is definitely not like what His Majesty has heard."

The person who impeached Ye Yu in the first place spoke up again, "The world has just been settled, and it is time for a thousand wastes to be revived. Why do ministers frame Zhongliang, who has made great achievements for His Majesty? What's more, Lord Longyang is in the middle of the court. Everyone in the world knows his status, if he didn't know his ambition and worry about His Majesty, how would I dare to offend him?"

What he said seemed to be approved by everyone, and many ministers stood on his side, "I know Lord Longyang has worked hard and made great achievements, but his heart is unfaithful, and his Majesty and Daqin are in danger, so he risked his life to speak the truth."

Ying Zheng laughed back angrily, "Okay! Okay! Then I will grant you death!"

"Your Majesty!" Some of the courtiers below dissuaded them one after another, "You must not! If Your Majesty does not believe what they say, you only need to investigate Lord Longyang to know the truth, and it will not be too late to punish them."

Before Ying Zheng's long-buried violent temper broke out and sent these people down again, more courtiers bowed to him and shouted in unison, "Your Majesty, please thoroughly investigate Lord Longyang!"

This was only the first wave, but soon after, some courtiers joined in and shouted: "Your Majesty, please thoroughly investigate Lord Longyang!"

In the end, some standing people were obviously shaken, and joined in quietly, following the crowd's three begging for orders.

In a short while, about half of the people in the court were targeting Ye Yu, and the rest of the people who were still standing, except for those who had friendship with him, were either Li Sihan Fei who didn't wade into the muddy water, or those who had already People who doubted him, but were still on the sidelines because of Ying Zheng.

Uncle Gan Luole and the others were taken aback by the situation, and looked at Ye Yu worriedly.

Ye Yu turned around and looked at the situation, as if standing on a frozen lake, cold from his feet.

He is not afraid of just a few, or a dozen people impeaching him.Because he has a clear conscience.But now it's not just a question of a dozen.

In addition to fearing that the three of them would become tigers, another thing that made Ye Yu's limbs feel cold was that there was such a huge faction in the court against him, but he didn't hear the slightest news.

Of course, he would not believe that so many people agreed because of the words of the first few people. Those few people did not have the ability to respond to everyone, and in addition to the long-planned demeanor of the first person when he stood up, Ye Yu could conclude that there was such a person. factions exist.

When did it arise?Who is the leader?He didn't know anything about these most critical issues, just like someone pointed a knife at him by his side, but he didn't realize it.

There is a way that the law does not blame the public. Of course, this is not feasible in Qin, but in the face of such a situation, if Yingzheng continues to kill regardless, then from the heart of the people, the Qin Dynasty that has just been established will inevitably become chaotic again. .

Unless Ye Yu's innocence can be thoroughly found out, these people can be dealt with according to the law without causing chaos.

But this is tantamount to following their wishes. There is a feeling that Yingzheng is being coerced, and it will create a gap between Ye Yu and Yingzheng. Maybe it will chill the hearts of those important officials who know that Ye Yu is innocent. .

After a dynasty has just been established, it is often the time when the monarch is most afraid of those who have made great achievements.If Yingzheng's trust in Ye Yu was lower than his power, then facing the scene before him, even if he hadn't checked it out, or Ye Yu was innocent after checking it out, the seeds of fear must have been planted.

In the current situation, a thorough investigation of Ye Yu is the best and worst way.

This faction is so powerful, will it be true or false when we find out?What's more, even if it is found that Ye Yu is innocent, but with the lesson of honesty, as long as one or two sentences are added to the truth, it will be enough to destroy him.

Gan Luo and the others originally wanted to stand up and say a few words for Ye Yu, but Ye Yu stepped forward by himself.

Facing Ying Zheng, Ye Yu lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please order a thorough investigation."

Those who impeached him all looked at him in astonishment.

Ye Yu was not annoyed by those people's words, nor did he complain to Ying Zheng, and he didn't even use the words "I am willing to accept a thorough investigation".

He knew very well that no matter whether the person behind the scenes was targeting him or not, Ying Zheng would be implicated.The Qin Dynasty had just been established, and was at a time when it was both strong and weak. Yingzheng's prestige could not be damaged, and the officials could not be alienated from him.

If he followed the latter's rhetoric, then the biggest choice still rests with Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng cannot be avoided from being implicated.

But it's different now. It was he himself who asked Ying Zheng to investigate in order to prove his innocence.

"Aiqing..." Ying Zheng's anger still persisted, and he also guessed what Ye Yu was thinking, "These people..."

"Your Majesty!" Ye Yu suddenly interrupted him and looked up at him.

The almost undisguised murderous look towards those people in Ying Zheng's eyes clearly told Ye Yu what he thought.

However, Ye Yu still said: "Your Majesty, please order a thorough investigation."

The previous changes in the official system had caused some turmoil in the court, and it had been in chaos for a while. If there was another bloodbath, it would not be a simple matter of reputation.

It also shows the timing of the people behind it.

Everyone in the main hall could sense that Ying Zheng was in a bad mood. They were so angry that they didn't dare to vent their anger. They only lowered their heads even lower, so as not to offend Ying Zheng at this time.

Only Ye Yu looked at Ying Zheng without hesitation at this moment, his eyes were firm, and he did not intend to give up his decision at all.

He was very happy that Ying Zheng could trust him unswervingly, but he didn't want Qin Chao, who may have become long-lived, to be planted in trouble because of his own actions, and he didn't want Ying Zheng to bear a bad name.

If the breath was stuck in his heart and he couldn't let it out, Ying Zheng took a deep look at Ye Yu, and said with a flick of his sleeves, "Retire." Then he walked away quickly.

Feeling helpless, Ye Yu hurriedly bid farewell to those friends who were worried about him, and went to find Yingzheng.

A few steps away from Yingzheng's palace, Ye Yu, who has keen eyes and ears, heard Yingzheng's figure coming from within.

"Go and investigate! I want to punish that person five times!"

The five punishments are to apply all kinds of cruel punishments to a person, and even the corpse will continue to be punished after death, which is worse than the cracking of a car. It can be seen that Ying Zheng is really angry with the people behind the scenes.

Seeing the spies come out, Ye Yu stepped in.

When Ying Zheng saw Ye Yu coming, he calmed down a little, but he still insisted: "I trust you, so I won't investigate you."

While Ye Yu felt warm, he also said: "Thank you for your trust, but this matter will inevitably become more and more troublesome. At that time, I am afraid that it will not only be some courtiers who doubt the minister, but everyone in the world will think that the minister has rebelled." gone."

"I see who dares!" Ying Zheng said after taking a few shots.

This sound was really loud, and several cases were terminated in response, probably venting the anger that was suppressed just now.

Leaning forward, Ye Yu held Ying Zheng's red-palmed hand and checked that it wasn't stuck into the wooden thorn before he felt relieved.

Ying Zheng looked at Ye Yu who was close at hand, held his hands tightly and said, "I will not let you be humiliated."

Ye Yu waited for his anger to dissipate before saying: "Your Majesty, don't worry, when will I be the one to suffer?"

Ying Zheng thought of Lu Buwei who had been tricked by him back then, and showed off his face, "What is Ai Qing going to do?"

The next day, Ye Yu didn't go to the camp to train soldiers as usual, didn't go to patrol the city, and didn't even enter the palace to teach the young masters.

Although it turned out that several sons ran to his house, they still let everyone know that he asked to resign for Ying Zheng to investigate thoroughly.

Another well-informed person noticed that Ying Zheng had sent spies, and the court was indeed more peaceful.

As everyone knows, Ying Zheng's spies actually found them.

After all, those who dared to impeach Ye Yu in front of Ying Zheng absolutely did not know the level of trust between the two, so naturally they did not feel that Ying Zheng would accompany them in the show.

On the contrary, the consumption of grass stakes and wooden stakes in Ye Yu's mansion was several times that of before, because the young master and Ziying were both angry and dissatisfied with him, so the props used for sword practice were naturally unlucky.

"Why are you messing around with them?" Ye Yu asked Fusu.

Fusu is now studying government affairs with Yingzheng, and he is very busy. In fact, he shouldn't have followed, but the father and son seem to have forgotten about it. Not to mention Fusu, even Yingzheng will come occasionally.

Fu Su smiled without saying a word, and just as he was talking, Zhao Cheng came to inform that Ying Zheng was coming.

Ye Yu and Fusu immediately stood up to greet them, and several children in the martial arts training ground also came over, but Ying Zheng waved them back, so they had to salute a few steps away.

Seeing this, Fusu knew that Ying Zheng had something to say to Ye Yu, so he picked up his sword again and left the stage, so as not to delay the two of them.

After walking a few steps away, Fusu suddenly looked back at the two people who behaved normally but exuded an indescribably sweet atmosphere, and remembered what his mother told him several years ago - "My son will follow General Ye well, and we will Have a good time."

After being dazed for a moment, Fusu continued to walk forward after being called softly by the servant beside him.

Because it was in broad daylight, Ying Zheng didn't make any intimate gestures, but just expressed condolences, which almost made Ye Yu think that they hadn't seen each other for several months.

It is actually the same for Ying Zheng. Ye Yu does not go to court or enter the palace now, and he can't come out every day. He can't stay long after seeing each other every few days. For the two who have just fallen in love, it is really like March. Xi.

"I found some clues." Ying Zheng finally got to the point.

Ye Yu put down the wine vessel in his hand, straightened his expression, and asked, "How is it?"

Ying Zheng frowned and said, "The spies report that Han Ji participated in it."

"Madam Han?" Ye Yu thought for a while, he had no friendship with her, and he hadn't even spoken to Hu Hai.

Ying Zheng didn't talk about Han Ji in his next sentence, but asked Ye Yu, "Do you want me to support Su as the crown prince?"

As soon as he said this, Ye Yu faintly sensed Han Ji's purpose.Although he didn't know Hu Hai and Han Ji, but because Ziying and several other princes were there, he knew a little about the situation in the palace.

Han Ji and Zheng Ji unilaterally refused to deal with each other, and regarded Fu Su as a thorn in their side, so they kept Hu Hai and Fu Su away from contact.And Hu Hai was also raised by Han Ji to be arrogant and self-indulgent, and Fu Su was disgusted when he wanted to play with him.

If there was no problem with Ying Zheng, Ye Yu would only think that Han Ji participated in this matter because he secretly manipulated Wei Guo to destroy South Korea. He couldn't guarantee that Han Fei didn't tell others about it, but after Ying Zheng asked, he I knew it was because of the establishment of the prince.

He gave Zhanlu to Fusu, almost clearly saying that he was on Fusu's side. Compared with some weak Han families behind Han Ji, basically no one can shake his position in Fusu, even Han No is also difficult.

"Yes." Facing Yingzheng's question, Ye Yu answered truthfully, "Establishing a crown prince will help His Majesty stabilize the government, and because of the importance His Majesty attaches to several sons, I think the eldest son is the best. "

In the absence of a crown prince, it was inappropriate for him to stand in line like this, but Ying Zheng didn't pursue it. He just said: "It's too early to establish a crown prince."

Ye Yu's lips moved, and he wanted to continue persuading, but think about it now that the Qin Dynasty has just been established, and although Yingzheng is called Qin Shihuang, a series of ceremonies and reforms such as enshrining Zen in Mount Tai have not yet been carried out, and now it is earlier than in history. For many years, there is really no need to pile things up now.

He still has time.

Then Ying Zheng said the reason for Han Ji, and it was just as Ye Yu thought, it was for the establishment of the crown prince.

"However... Mrs. Han is in the palace, and the officials of the Han family are weak. This faction is definitely not because of them."

"It's really not." Ying Zheng said this, his expression turned cold again, "This faction has a long history, and it won't be found out for a while."

Sure enough, he is not a simple person, but is it true that someone can plan secretly for so long without being noticed?

Ye Yu was a little puzzled.

After a while, Ye Yu was presented with a melee report on the investigation, and at the same time, a battle report was also presented.

Ye Yu opened the battle report without hesitation, which contained the news of Donghu's invasion of Yandi.

Compared with the Xiongnu who have not yet prospered, the Yuezhi and Donghu are the most powerful Rongdi at present. Among them, the Yuezhi has stronger personal ability, but is not as prosperous as Donghu.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Donghu once defeated the State of Yan. Although Zhao Yan became stronger and failed to invade the Central Plains, he still often harassed the two countries of Yan and Zhao—now it is the State of Qin.

After reading it for a while, Ye Yu remembered that there was another piece of news.

This faction has existed since more than fifteen years ago. The reason why it has not been noticed is because they were not considered a faction at all at that time, but just a group of people who were dissatisfied with Ye Yu.

Yes, dissatisfied with Ye Yu.

Not everyone in this world is a face controler, and even a face controler might not like Ye Yu's style, such as himself.Before going to the battlefield to hone his skills, Ye Yu always felt that his appearance was too girly, and it got better later.

More than fifteen years ago, it was the time when Ye Yu rose from an unknown Wei man to a general of the Qin State. What's more, at that time, he had a championship event in which almost all the people in the court participated. It has attracted the envy of many people.

Never underestimate the jealousy of some people, especially those who are dozens of years older than him but whose rank is far inferior to him.

At first, it was just the jealousy of some people. Later, taking advantage of the locust disaster, the matter of donating salary began to brew. After experiencing some things, the first impeachment of King Wei began after his death.

That time they were single and weak, and they had no basis. They were purely jealous and tried to provoke Ye Yu and Ying Zheng, so they said that Ye Yu was disloyal to Qin Zhixin.

Of course, this impeachment failed, but because of this, he got to know more people who were dissatisfied with Ye Yu, so there was a second impeachment that said he had evil intentions.

That was the embryonic form of the faction, and the meaningless impeachment in the eyes of Ye Yu and others was actually a helper in forming the faction.

Maybe it was out of jealousy at first, but later some people were actually because of their political stance and Ye Yu's attitude towards them.

But no matter what, no matter how much loose sand there is, it is only loose sand, until the anti-Qin forces headed by Lord Changping realized the existence of these loose sand.

Mr. Changping and others failed to plan several times, so they discovered their existence by chance, so they took advantage of them.

Ying Zheng has already sent people to arrest these people.

Ye Yu looked at the conclusion, and also remembered that Gan Luo had mentioned to him about his popularity and his reputation for arrogance outside. He had also seen these people who were dissatisfied with him at the banquet that day, but he never took it to heart. In the end, he almost stumbled on them.

Looking at the wooden slips that were gradually charred in the brazier, Ye Yu still had doubts on his face.

Such an accurate grasp of timing and people's hearts, is it really difficult for Changping Jun and others and Yipansha to think of it?

But Ye Yu didn't have that much thought to think about it at this time, he was more concerned about Donghu's invasion.

"Father, you want to go out?" Ziying looked in surprise at Ye Yu who had changed out of his clothes. Because the impeachment case failed, Ye Yu hadn't gone out for a long time.

"Yes." Ye Yu looked at Ziying, who was already showing signs of convulsions, and said, "Donghu is restless, I want to kill Hu."

Ziying knew that he could never stop Ye Yu from going out, so he could only ask, "How long will it take to come back?"

Ye Yu thought for a while and replied, "Next year, I can come back and help you get engaged."

Ziying's cheeks flushed, which made Ye Yu laugh out loud, "I don't care what my daughter-in-law's status is, as long as she is a good person, if you like it, tell me directly, but don't be rude."

Ziying nodded coyly, and Ye Yu entered the palace in a good mood.

"You want to go to war?" Although Ying Zheng was reluctant, he also felt that he had been wronged by letting Ye Yu enjoy the criticism in the capital.

It is a good opportunity to attack Hu this time. Donghu is in the north of Yandi, and Ye Yu's fiefdom is in Ji. If Yingzheng lets Ye Yu attack Hu, it is equivalent to bluntly showing that he believes in Ye Yu, and it just ends the impeachment. .

He was very clear in his heart, but Ying Zheng really couldn't bear it.

While hesitating, Ying Zheng suddenly felt his lips soften, and after a moment of hesitation, he immediately plunged into it.

When the two separated panting, Ying Zheng also surrendered.

"I'll wait for you to come back." The foreheads of the two touched, Ying Zheng said while grabbing Ye Yu's hand.

"it is good."
