Chapter 367 Goodbye Wang Jian (Second update! Please give me a reward and book all the monthly passes!)

Ying Zheng stopped his horse.

Wang Ben pointed to the wilderness ahead, where there were several bungalows in the lowlands.

"Your Majesty, if you go down the slope in front, you will reach Pinyang."

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Ben, "I wonder if I can invite Nai's father to come out if I'm here in person?"

Wang Ben nodded, "Your Majesty drives the horse in person, my father will be flattered. But whether this can happen depends on my father's physical condition."

Ying Zheng rode his horse and stopped moving forward.

Zhang Han stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, are you tired and want to camp here?"

"No need."

Ying Zheng rode his horse and stayed on the hillside for a while.

Ying Zheng has always been wise. Everyone sees that Ying Zheng appears calm on the surface, but in fact, his heart is like a sea in a storm, with lightning and thunder, and the sky is dark and the earth is dark.

Ying Zheng only looked relaxed, but in fact he was under great pressure inside.

As a majestic king of a country, it is really humble to face such a defeat and have to drive thousands of miles to the hometown of an old minister.

Although a man is said to be able to bend and stretch, in order to achieve great things, this grievance is nothing.

But I did this and came to Wang Jian personally for advice. When Wang Jian said that he would spend 600,000 yuan to attack the Chu State, everyone laughed at him because he was old. Now that he is here, he will be invited to come out.

Wang Jian must be secretly laughing at me, and maybe even putting on airs for me.

The Tiger Guards just followed Ying Zheng and lingered on the mountain.

Wang Ben then quickly ordered his followers, "Hurry and inform Marquis Wu Cheng that the king has arrived, and ask the whole family to come out to greet the king."

The follower got the order and rode the horse very fast.

Ying Zheng felt relieved when he saw a young man riding a horse running ahead of him towards the city.

After waiting for a stick of incense, Ying Zheng led the crowd on horseback to Pinyang City.

Although some people have cleared the way for Ying Zheng in advance, in Pinyang, the old territory of Qin State, they are all authentic Qin people.

When they heard that the king was coming, everyone ran out to watch.

The Qin Dynasty created an unprecedented glorious history for the Qin State.

As soon as Ying Zheng entered the city, he heard Qin people cheering on both sides of the street.

"The king is mighty! The king is mighty!"

Listening to these words now, Ying Zheng only felt a little ironic.

When they arrived at Wang Jian's house, the whole family had already come out to greet him.

Wang Jian's sons, nephews, and grandsons all came out to greet him.

Even the grandson who was nursing was taken out.

Everyone was trembling, "Wu Chenghou and his family are here to see your Majesty."

Ying Zheng laughed, "I miss General Wang very much, so I came over to see General Wang. Your greeting is too grand, so please get down."

Everyone was so frightened that they broke into a cold sweat.

After hearing this, Wang Ben just looked at the ground and seemed to be smiling.

Half an hour ago, Wang Ben suddenly sent someone to inform them all that the king was coming. Suddenly, the Wang family's yard was abuzz.

When Ying Zheng arrived at the door of his house, the whole family finally lined up neatly at the door.

When Ying Zheng saw it, he felt dumbfounded.

However, seeing how pious and respectful the Wang family is, Ying Zheng feels more at ease with the Wang family.

Soon, the sound of rapid footsteps came.

Everyone looked over.

I saw a white-haired old man being carried out on a trolley by four people.

The man sat on his seat and shouted from afar.

"Your Majesty—Wang Jian is late!"

Ying Zheng's eyes widened. He guessed that Wang Jian was getting older, but he didn't expect that he had only been away from Xianyang City for two years and his hair was full of white hair. "Wang Jian cannot get up to see the king. I hope the king will forgive me."

Wang Jian sat on his seat and climbed down with difficulty to bow.

Ying Zheng naturally stepped forward and helped him up, "Marquis Wu Cheng is so polite."

Wang Jian wanted to refuse, but Ying Zheng said directly, "I am still the same person. I always don't like these false etiquette. I came here today because I have important matters of family and country to consult with Marquis Wu Cheng. I wonder if Marquis Wu Cheng is willing to give me some advice?" "

After Wang Jian heard the news, he stopped engaging in these vain tricks.

"Quickly, please invite the king into the hall."

Just like that, Ying Zheng was crowded in.

Along the way, Ying Zheng asked, "Why does Marquis Wu Cheng use a chariot now when he comes in and out?"

"It all happened half a year ago." Wang Jian didn't hide anything. He looked kind, rosy, and his eyes were still bright.

Ying Zheng sat in the upper seat.

On one side, Wang's servant hurriedly served tea.

They were also surprised that there was only a big man holding a sword around King Qin, not even an entourage serving tea.

Zhang Han stepped forward and stopped the tea. Ying Zheng went out in a hurry, so he didn't bring any servants with him, so he did most of the things himself.

There is no internal servant, so naturally no one will test the poison.

Zhang Han saw that no one noticed this, so he thought he had to do it.

Zhang Han took the tea cup and wanted to try it out for Ying Zheng first, but Ying Zheng took the tea cup directly in his hand and started drinking it.

They are all people who have served Ying Zheng. Everyone knows how strong Ying Zheng's material desires are. He can't wait to build his palace into pure gold to satisfy himself.

The team of waiters traveling with them can line up an entire lane.

Seeing King Qin like this, Wang Jian confirmed that King Qin had something to ask for this time.

"Your Majesty must be extremely sleepy after a long journey. The humble house where the common people live may be shabby, but we can clean a good room for Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng was upset. He also wanted to stay in Pinyang for a few more days, but he couldn't.

Although there were two prime ministers and many ministers in Xianyang City, if they were defeated at this moment, there would be frequent discussions among the army and the government.

He had to fight quickly.

Ying Zheng did not answer Wang Jian's question.

When Wang Jian saw this, he quickly said to the Wang family, "Everyone, please step aside and leave me alone to serve the king."

Zhang Han looked at Ying Zheng and decided whether to go or stay based on Ying Zheng's intention.

Ying Zheng didn't look at him, so Zhang Han went out.

Only Ying Zheng and Wang Jian were left in the large hall.

The Wang family's house is not luxuriously decorated, but very dull and simple.

But when the sun shines inside the house, the light shines through on the waxed floor, making the whole room extra bright.

"How has it been for Marquis Wu Cheng to be at home these years?"

"Thanks to the king, everything is fine."

Ying Zheng was silent for a while before lowering his head and saying in a low voice, "Our Qin State was defeated by our enemy Chu State."

When Wang Jian heard this, his eyes were extremely calm. He smoothed his beard calmly, "Wang Jian has long been indifferent to the major events outside. If the king hadn't informed him, Wang Jian would not have known that our Qin State would be defeated one day."

"Then in the opinion of Marquis Wu Cheng, how should I respond?"

"I have commanded thirty battles, large and small. In every battle, I have to witness countless soldiers die in front of me. When I clean the battlefield, I always look at the sky. After watching helplessly, countless soldiers die in front of me. After that, Wang Jian's heart slowly changed and became as cold and as hard as a sword."

"The king may think that the old man is confused and even the words of the king are wrong. But this is exactly what I want to tell the king. Regardless of the safety of the soldiers, and not taking the lives of the soldiers into his heart at all times, he only thinks about his personal interests. To launch a war based on interests and purposes is like a deaf-mute man commanding a war."

Ying Zheng suddenly felt remorseful.

He was eager to attack Chu State in order to fulfill his long-cherished wish to unify the world as soon as possible. At that time, he did not consider the opinions of other ministers and just did it.

According to Wang Jian's opinion, he made the mistake of being an unjust person with few helpers.
