I was a fan in ancient times [Transmigration Book]

After Yan Zheng made this request, King Chu and Han Yi changed their colors together.

Of course the King of Chu was displeased, but Han Yi...Han Yi was shocked.

It turns out that he can still play like this, Yan Zheng's brain circuit was really unexpected to him.

Yes, he was sure that the idea was Yan Zheng's. After all, even Prime Minister Qian couldn't help but look at Yan Zheng in surprise. He must have never discussed it with Prime Minister Qian.

Don't talk to Yan Zheng about discussing it, he didn't even say it, the first is that the time is a bit urgent, this is something he came up with on the spur of the moment, and he didn't have time to discuss it with Qian Cheng and others.

The second is that Qian Cheng and others may not agree.

When Yan Zheng told them Han Yi's identity in Chu State, Qian Cheng and others were very excited.

What they first thought was not that Han Yi was going to betray Qin to become King of Chu, but that they could finally get first-hand information about Chu.

Over the years, Daqin has placed a lot of people in Chu State, and some of them are really doing well, but few of them can get in touch with the center.

Han Yi is good. It took less than a month to come up and become Prince Chu. Who would have imagined that.

Both Prime Minister Qian and Dashu Zhang suspected that Han Yi had used some special means, otherwise how could he have become the Prince of Chu?

But no matter what the method is, this identity is too important, and they hope that Han Yi will stay, at least for a while, so that they can get more information.

As for whether Han Yi will betray... Now Prime Minister Qian and the chief minister are very glad that Han Yi and Yan Zheng are lovers.

Even if they give in emotionally in the face of rights, these two are at the time when their relationship is hot. Since Han Yi notified Yan Zheng in advance, it means that he still wants to provide Daqin with some convenience.

As long as he got some information and established Daqin's advantage, it would be too late for Han Yi to repent.

But... Zhongshu makes this person a little bit crazy, and no one is sure if the Chu State will be revived in his hands if he really repents.

But that's all for the future, now everyone except Yan Zheng thinks it's better for Han Yi to stay there.

Yan Zheng knew that this was the result and he would definitely not discuss it with them, so he directly made this request.

It's just that if he brought it up, the king of Chu would definitely not agree.

Are you kidding me, is it easy for him to find a prince he likes?

This crown prince not only suits his wishes, but there is no objection from the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty, except for some who doubt his origin - it is said that the crown prince is so good-looking.

The most important thing is that sending the prince as a hostage means that the country has been oppressed and unable to resist.

The state of Chu was not the state of Yan, so they had no choice but to send the prince there as a proton.

The king of Chu said: "The king of Qin just doesn't want to talk about it."

Yan Zheng smiled slightly and said, "The King of Chu has only one son, and the widow is helpless."

King Chu: ...

Was he humiliated in public and had fewer sons?

Han Yi wanted to cover his face, but Yan Zheng's words were full of hatred.

Although Yan Zheng also has no son, he is still young and has not yet married a wife.

It is rare for King Chu to have more than ten or twenty daughters without a single son.

The King of Chu endured his anger and said, "I would like to marry my beloved daughter to the King of Qin."

Yan Zheng said bluntly: "If you don't marry, I already have a queen candidate."

King Chu: ...

This is looking for trouble!

Of course, the King of Chu did not mean that his daughter must be the queen. In fact, few princesses marry other countries to become queens.

But the king of Chu himself can't say that it's okay not to be a queen, which is too humble.

So the king of Chu walked away, and the negotiation basically broke down.

Han Yi felt that there would definitely be someone in Chu who would like him to be a proton, such as some royal families who were waiting for their sons to be adopted.

If the operation is good, it can be delayed. While collecting useful information, he secretly made some tricks to make those people make a fuss and try to make him a happy proton.

The king of Chu obviously thought of this too, and said to Han Yi when he returned, "Don't worry, Ah Zheng, my father will never let you go to Qin to be a proton."

Han Yi lowered his eyes and sighed and said, "If I become a proton in exchange for Chu's growing strength, that's fine. The only thing I'm worried about is that the power of the Chu royal family will fall to the side."

King Chu was very pleased. He saw in Han Yi the responsibility a prince should have.

Whether he will be allowed to go or not is one thing, but if he is frightened when he hears that the other party asks him to be a proton, then he really can't support the wall.

The more satisfied King Chu was with Han Yi, the less he would let him leave. He was different from King Yan, who had many sons, not to mention that Yan Chuan was not a prince when he was sent away.

After thinking about it, the king of Chu felt that this was probably the choice made by the king of Qin to weaken the strength of Chu.

In the end, the king of Chu chose not to talk to Yan Zheng anymore, because Yan Zheng's attitude was very firm, and if he wanted the formula, he had to let Prince Chu enter Qin as a hostage.

Seeing that the King of Chu disagreed, Yan Zheng couldn't help but said: "The King of Chu is not sincere. The widow said to borrow the way, but the King of Chu refused to let the prince of Chu enter Qin as a hostage and still refused, so the widow has nothing to say."

The King of Chu was silent for a while before he said: "Apart from these two conditions, does King Qin have any other conditions?"

Yan Zheng chuckled, "Daqin has no shortage of others."

Han Yi couldn't help but glanced at him, what he said was really domineering.

But this is also true, what does Daqin lack?If you have to say it, there is a shortage of people, but it is impossible to ask the people from Chu State, and it is impossible for Chu State to give the people away.

The King of Chu was a little embarrassed. Before he came, he was actually very confident in exchanging something with Qin.

The sense of superiority of being an established powerful country is still there, and a rising star like Qin is not strong enough in his eyes, even if Qin has annexed Yan and South Korea.

But if you think about it carefully, Qin's annexation of these two countries was due to some luck. At that time, South Korea was cornered by Zhao Guo's persecution, and Han Yi was a variable.

As for the Kingdom of Yan, it is reasonable to say that the Kingdom of Yan should not be destroyed, but bombing the Royal City is too hurtful, and when the new year is just over, and the prince is about to get married, most of the important people are in the Royal City.

But this time, King Chu has seen King Qin's toughness, so I will give you two ways to go, whether you can go or not.

The king of Chu chose not to leave, he wanted to go home.

Anyway, Chu State can develop slowly. Even if the formula is obtained now, it will be impossible for the entire army to change weapons.

Not to mention efficiency, the main reason is that it costs a lot of money, and Chu State...doesn't have that much money now.

Fighting is burning money. If Chu State had money, would it still fall to this point?

This meeting did not yield any results. The King of Chu was obviously not very happy on the way back. He felt that he was just like the State of Chu, in the state of sunset.

The only thing that comforts him is that he has an heir.

This time the prince was very stable from the beginning to the end of the meeting, even if he knew that the other party's target was him, he didn't panic.

He didn't lose his composure when he was seriously injured by some rumors, and the king of Chu felt that he had to hold on to the prince for a while.

The king of Chu called Han Yi into the car and said, "After you go back, someone may write a letter asking you to go to Qin to be a proton, so you should be mentally prepared."

Han Yi said happily: "It also depends on who is talking about it. If the general said it, I will consider it. If it is someone else, what do they do?"

The king of Chu gave him an appreciative glance. The prince has always been very thorough in seeing things. Indeed, the focus now is on the general's attitude.

There are no other factions in the court now, only the royal party and the general party. As for the other royal families, they are all small roles, and at most they just make some noise.

King Chu said: "I remember that you have a good relationship with the general. On the way back, you can talk to him more."

The King of Chu didn't intend to keep Han Yi at a distance from Xiang Yan. He was not yet capable of bringing Xiang Yan down. Even if Xiang Yan was brought down, the entire Xiang family would still be there, and it was still one of the most important families in Chu.

He just wanted to curb Xiang Yan's ambition and power, but when necessary, he would still be in the same camp as Xiang Yan.

After hearing this, Han Yi nodded and said: "I will go to the general for advice, but..."

"What?" Seeing his hesitant expression, the King of Chu said, "If you have anything to say directly, there is no need to worry too much between you and my father and son."

After hearing this, Han Yi felt a little emotional. King Chu is indeed a good father, and of course it may be because he has been looking forward to his son for too long.

If Han Yi hadn't come here, if he had met the King of Chu earlier, after experiencing the matter of King Han sending him out, he might really be the son of the King of Chu with all his heart.

But... the one in the original book may not meet the requirements of King Chu.

Han Yi thought about this in his heart, but he said: "As far as I know, King Qin will never give up until he achieves his goal. Since he wants to borrow a way, if he fails this time, he will definitely find other opportunities. Now that Unable to obtain the right of way peacefully, I fear...he will do something to us."

After hearing this, the King of Chu laughed and said, "Ah Zheng is too worried now. Qin is now in a confrontation with Wei and Zhao, and they will fight each other from time to time. How could they mess with us again? Don't worry, just go."

Han Yi said: "I hope so, but I still hope that the king can send more troops to guard the border."

Chu Wangyu said earnestly: "Being cautious is an advantage, but you don't have to be too careful. Go and meet the general, and he will tell you the answer."

Han Yi nodded, and before he left, he took a look at the King of Chu, thinking that I have already given you a spoiler, if you don't believe it, don't blame me.

But it doesn't matter, there is still Xiang Yan.

He found Xiang Yan's carriage, and when Xiang Yan saw him, he smiled and said, "It's rare for the prince to condescend to come here, but for the sake of the proton?"

Han Yi shook his head and said, "No, I'm worried that Qin State didn't get what it wanted this time, so it would attack us. I just talked about this matter with the king, and the king didn't seem to care about it. I don't know what the general thinks ?”

After thinking about it carefully, Xiang Yan said: "This may not be impossible. Through this contact, I know that King Qin is very domineering. Since he succeeded to the throne, he has rarely encountered obstacles, so he is quite arrogant, but... now Qin Zhao Wei and Three Kingdoms are going to war, even if he wants to fight us, he has to agree with the court ministers, I think Meng Ao will not agree."

"Really?" Han Yi asked.

Xiang Yan nodded: "Chu is so powerful, he can beat it if he wants to? It's a joke."

Han Yi said seriously: "The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength, not to mention that Qin is not yet a rabbit, so I hope the general can increase troops on the border to prevent us from being attacked."

Xiang Yan smiled: "The crown prince is really cautious, but even if I say that I want to increase the number of troops, it will not work if the king disagrees. You should go and persuade the king first."

Han Yi smiled bitterly: "If I can persuade the king, why do I need to discuss with the general? However, since the general can't do anything, then forget it, maybe I really worry too much."

Xiang Yan did not continue this topic but asked: "What does the crown prince think about the proton matter?"

Han Yi said simply: "It's not impossible to let me be the hostage, but Qin must be able to give the corresponding bargaining chip. I am the prince of Da Chu. How can I be a hostage casually? If Da Qin is willing to cede ten cities, no , five cities, even if those five cities are ceded, I immediately agree to enter Qin as a hostage."

Xiang Yan's eyes lit up and he asked, "Which five cities?"

Han Yi smiled: "Which other five cities could it be? Isn't it just a few around Zaocheng?"

Xiang Yana slapped his hands and said, "That's right, if these five cities can be taken down, it will be as difficult as the sky for Qin to attack us! Your Highness really has a good eye!"

Han Yi: Hehe.

If those five cities were really captured by Chu State, then Chu State would indeed have the upper hand in terms of terrain, but the problem is that they would not be the same as Chu State after the Great Qin War, either infantry or archers, and they also had crossbowmen and...gunpowder .

The so-called natural moat does not exist, at least it is not a natural moat like the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, and it is no problem for Qin.

Moreover, Han Yi said this because he wanted to increase his status invisibly. Anyway, Yan Zheng and the others would not agree. If Chu State really planned to make this request, Yan Zheng could use the reason of being offended to send troops to attack Chu State.

But even without this reason, Yan Zheng would still fight.

Even if he didn't have the chance to discuss with Yan Zheng before leaving, he knew that Yan Zheng would have Chu State's idea.

It's because after taking down those cities, Qin State can attack Wei State and Zhao State and go straight to the king city, and the degree of difficulty will be much smaller.

And these cities are not difficult to get, at least with the current strength of Qin State, it is no problem to fight Chu State.

This was Han Yi's conclusion after following Xiang Yan for a walk.

After making sure that Xiang Yan didn't take his warning to heart, he left Xiang Yan's carriage.

Anyway, he reminded him that King Chu and Xiang Yan both made wrong judgments, so don't blame him.

As for why he reminded these two people... of course it was because he wanted to consume as much of Chu's troops as possible.

After all, the military distribution map of Chu State has basically been in Yan Zheng's hands, which is equivalent to giving a strategy in advance.

If the generals of Daqin can't beat Chu with such a strategy, then wait to be dealt with by Yan Zheng.

Han Yi even felt that Yan Zheng would want to use this opportunity to push some of his favorite generals to the top.

Those generals now have soldiers in their hands, and they have more experience in leading troops. They have also been on the battlefield, and they fight with vigor and vigor, no worse than the Meng family.

It's just that he hasn't been in the position until now. It's basically because of insufficient military achievements and a lack of enthusiasm.

The Meng Family's ability to have such a momentum is the accumulation of military achievements from generation to generation.

Yan Zheng didn't think about breaking this undefeated myth, he just didn't want to put all his bets on the loyalty of the Meng family.

It's a pity that the king of Chu and Xiang Yan still subconsciously think that Chu is still a powerful country that others dare not easily attack. Even if Yan Zheng's attitude is strong enough this time, they can't wake them up.

Han Yi couldn't change their arrogance that they thought they were still a big country, so they could only leave with regret.

After returning to Wangcheng, as the King of Chu said, people soon began to write letters demanding that Han Yi be admitted to Qin as a hostage.

Among them, the most lively one is He Dingjun, who is the uncle of the King of Chu. He is very old and has not participated in political affairs very much before.

This time, he popped up and tried to persuade the king of Chu to let Han Yi take Qin as a hostage, and he also threatened: "Back then, Crown Prince Yan was taken as a hostage in Qin, didn't he return to Yan safely? To attend the wedding of Prince Yan, the prince will not suffer any harm if he enters Qin as a hostage, and in exchange for what our Chu country needs most, please think of the prince for the Chu country!"

He Dingjun can be regarded as an old man, and the target is directed at Han Yi, as if it is not the king of Chu who does not want him to go, but he himself is timid.

Han Yi was also relatively new, so he repeated what he had said to Xiang Yan.

He Dingjun was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that Han Yi would condemn him for disregarding the prince's personal safety. He had already thought about how to refute it, but he didn't expect that Han Yi actually raised another condition.

It's just this condition... Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is impossible for Qin to agree. If Qin is willing to back down, the previous talks between the two sides would not have ended so unhappy.

He Dingjun said directly: "Your Highness's request is too difficult for others..."

Before he could finish speaking, Han Yi interrupted him and said, "I...Gu why do you hear He Dingjun's tone as if he is speaking for the state of Qin? Why? Tang Tang, the prince of Chu, is willing to take the risk of entering Qin as a hostage Isn’t it worth five cities? Are you looking down on Gu or Da Chu!”

All eyes were on He Dingjun, and Han Yi immediately connected his personal safety with the honor and disgrace of the country.

This is his latest discovery. People in Chu State still think that their country is very powerful and proud, so he naturally wants to be a proud prince. Anyway, he is arrogant and does not spend money.

He Dingjun stabilized his mind and said: "Your Highness's words are wrong, I just think that the king of Qin will not be able to agree."

Han Yi asked: "If King Qin refuses to agree, do we have to be unconditional? Is He Dingjun trying to betray the country?"

He Dingjun couldn't bear Han Yi's series of indiscriminate bombings.

Han Yi had experienced in the Great Qin court. When he first entered the Qin Kingdom, he dared to fight against the then Da Shuzhang. In his eyes, what is He Dingjun?

What's more, Mr. He Ding was frightened by the king of Chu and his son for many years, and now he suddenly wants to participate in politics. Regardless of whether the king of Chu is willing or not, he doesn't have this sensitivity. No sense of accomplishment.

He Dingjun gritted his teeth and retreated despondently. He looked around and found that everyone was watching the fun, and he couldn't help feeling resentful.

He made up his mind that he must find a way to get Han Yi into Qin as a hostage, and then try to let him die in Qin, so that his grandson will have a chance to adopt the king of Chu to become the prince!

Yes, He Dingjun's sudden appearance was not because he didn't like Han Yi. Even if another person suddenly appeared and became the prince of Chu, he would still be uncomfortable and would find a way.

It's just that he has no other way, even if he wants to assassinate, he can't find anyone to help him. Now that the king of Qin finally gave him the opportunity, he would be sorry for himself if he didn't follow up!

Everyone else knew He Dingjun's thoughts, and some even agreed with them. Don't ask, these are all members of the Chu royal family.

These are the only remaining members of King Chu's direct family members, and their descendants all hope to be adopted by King Chu to become the prince, so at this time they really made a concerted effort to send Han Yi there.

It's just that He Dingjun is the stupidest one, and he jumped out like this. The others realized that the new crown prince was really not easy to bully through his sending heads.

After all, he still has two brushes to be favored by the king of Chu. In this case, they have to find a new way.

Han Yi glanced over and could tell how many people wanted him to be a hostage in Qin Dynasty. He couldn't help feeling that these people were really helping him and Yan Zheng, they were all good people!

In order to thank these good people, he decided to choose these people to take the blame!

After that, no one mentioned this matter again, and everyone knew that this tug-of-war would continue.

The first thing people in the royal family thought of was to win over Xiang Yan, but they didn't expect Xiang Yan to directly stand up and say that he was on the same front with the King of Chu, and he didn't want the prince to be a hostage in Qin.

Everyone has to weigh it now, of course they won't back down, this is a fight for a big position, so close at hand, how can they back down?

It's just that they all calm down and prepare to think of a way.

Seeing that these people no longer mentioned this matter, Han Yi suddenly raised his concerns about the State of Qin's attack on Chu State again, and asked the King of Chu and Xiang Yan to increase troops to the border.

King Chu and Xiang Yan looked at each other helplessly. The prince is good at any place, but sometimes he is too stubborn.

Both King Chu and Xiang Yan were unwilling to refute his face, so they gave an argument to discuss later.

Han Yi didn't insist either, he just wanted to say it in public, let everyone know that he saw this, and when the incident broke out, let these people have doubts about the judgment of King Chu and Xiang Yan, and then cut it invisibly The prestige of these two people.

Han Yi didn't chase after him and said that both King Chu and Xiang Yan were relieved.

As a result, the breath was not finished, and news came from Zaocheng: Qin sent troops to invade!

The King of Chu was startled, and he summoned people overnight to inquire about the situation. As a result, during the process of sending messengers back and forth, Qin State went down to three cities in a row. Those three cities seemed to be like paper, no matter what the local defenders did , Qin Guo can find a flaw and kill with one blow.

The king of Chu was shocked when he got the news, but Xiang Yan was very sensitive, and immediately said: "This is wrong, Qin must have obtained our defense map on the border!"

The king of Chu was surprised and asked: "How is this possible? Who will give Qin the defense map?"

Xiang Yan turned his head to look at Han Yi: "What do you think, Your Highness?"
