My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 394 Chang'an Junfu declares bankruptcy, Yan Dan's despair!

Ying Chengqiao smiled and asked, "Brother Wang is talking about Tunliu County?"

"Don't worry, I can survive this."

Ying Zheng still looked at the ground, and his voice was a little dull: "It's not just Tunliu County."

"If General Jiu Guo is really as difficult to defeat Zhao Wu'an as what Wang Di said, and may even lose his troops and generals, then Fushi County will not be safe either."

"As long as the Zhao army can be blocked to the east of Luliang Mountain and north of the Jiangxian and Anmen lines, Daqin will not continue to fight fiercely, but will choose to defend Jiangxian and recuperate."

"In this way, the Zhao army can sweep north along the Luliang Mountains, capture all of Taiyuan County and half of Shangdang County."

"And Fushi County is also among them."

Taiyuan and Shangdang counties are mountainous, with limited grain production and no place to raise horses.

For Da Qin, the greatest significance of these two counties is to help Da Qin gain the initiative in the Qin-Zhao war!

However, now the Qin Dynasty has taken all the lands of the old Han and the old Wei.

Da Qin no longer could only attack Zhao State across the Taihang Mountains, but could also launch attacks from the west and east sides of Zhao State.

The status of these two territories, where the bones of more than a million Qin and Zhao soldiers were buried, is no longer what it used to be.

Now that Great Qin's national strength is exhausted, Ying Zheng will not make Great Qin pay a high price for this territory.

Ying Chengxuan laughed and asked, "Brother Wang asked his younger brother to come to court today. I'm afraid it's because of this matter, right?"

"My brother said, there is no need for my brother to go to war, so why call him."

Ying Zheng said sincerely: "This is a major matter. Brother Wang should know it as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Brother Wang, Brother Nai will definitely grant you a new seat in the future."

Ying Zheng felt deeply indebted for his decision.

Ying Chengxuan is indeed very wealthy. He has four food towns in Chang'an Township, Tunliu County, Fushi County and Daliang City under his name. He is the feudal lord with the most food towns in the world today.

But Ying Chengyu also spent a lot of money!

Wouldn't it cost no money to let five hundred elite soldiers who are strong enough to serve as county magistrates as domestic soldiers?

To support more than a thousand famous guests and their families is another huge expense.

Supporting nearly a thousand craftsmen and providing them with the funds needed for research and development is like a bottomless pit.

In addition, Ying Chengyu also needed to support more than a thousand common people who could be released as prison guards, chief clerks and other low-level officials as a reserve team of domestic soldiers, and thousands of servants and maids in Chang'an Junfu and Chang'an Palace, who died in the battle. The family members of the soldiers and the servants of Lu Buwei's house were among the people.

Even if you don't count the expenses such as building repairs and research and development, there are still nearly ten thousand people relying on Ying Chenglong for a living!

Ying Chengyu had just obtained the fiefdom a few years ago, so he must not have saved much money.

Now that two food towns have been lost at once, Ying Chengyu's capital chain will definitely not be able to sustain it!

In other words, Ying Chengyu is bankrupt!

Ying Chengyu shook his head solemnly: "No need."

"Fushi and Tunliu are my brothers' food towns, and I have the responsibility of guarding the land."

"Now that Tunliu has fallen, it is already a favor for the king to not pursue his younger brother's responsibilities. Why do we need to grant another city?"

"Brother Wang just said that we must put the overall situation first, how can we break the rules of military merit and nobility for the sake of my brother!"

After the world is unified, Da Qin is likely to transform into a complete system of prefectures and counties. At that time, Da Qin will eliminate all food towns in the country.

Ying Chengyu didn't want to shake the military merit system of Great Qin just for the sake of two fiefdoms that he could only hold for ten or more decades, and he didn't want to chill the generals of Great Qin just because of those two fiefdoms!

Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "No need to refuse."

"My brother's presentation of the Chang'an plow and Chang'an paper is a great achievement."

"Considering that my brother's food is abundant, I have never granted him a title."

"Now that my city has fallen, and it's the time of autumn harvest, I can give you another fiefdom on the grounds that this year's grain production has soared."

Ying Chengxuan smiled and said: "I still have Daliang City and Chang'an Township. Chang'an Paper will continue to bring income to me. I can also study craftsmanship to make money."

"If it's not enough, I will definitely ask for it from my brother."

Ying Chengyu asked pitifully: "If I am really short of money, Brother Wang won't leave me alone, right?"

Ying Zheng said without hesitation: "This is absolutely impossible!"

Ying Chengxuan stretched out his right hand and said jokingly: "Then I will allocate five hundred thousand dollars to help my brother cover this year's expenses."

Ying Zheng waved his hand: "How can half a million be enough?"

"This year I, Da Qin, have made a lot of money from selling Chang'an paper."

"Tomorrow I will order the young master to send a million dollars to my brother's house."

Ying Chengyu was slightly startled, but did not refuse. He just smiled and said, "That's it."

"The purpose of getting food is to get money. You can also get money by asking for money from your elder brother."

"What do you want to eat?"

Ying Zheng felt warm in his heart, smiled and shook his head: "You!"

Can food and property be the same as simple money?

There is no comparison at all!

Ying Zheng knew that Ying Chengyu was just comforting him.

Knowing that Ying Zheng had his own considerations, Ying Chengyu stopped sulking. He stood up easily and patted Ying Zheng's arm: "Okay, I know you are busy."

"Busy, be busy!"

"There is no need to worry about my brother's affairs. I will take good care of the general school and go about my business."

After saying this, Ying Chengyu put his hands on his back and strolled out of the hall.

Looking at Ying Chengyu's back, Ying Zheng couldn't help but laugh: "You're such a jerk!"

"You even warned Brother Nai!"

But as Ying Chengxuan said, Ying Zheng is very busy.

When the war came, Ying Zheng became even busier.

Standing up, Ying Zheng ordered in a deep voice: "Prepare a banquet in the side hall."

"It is said that Qi and Yan Xingren have entered the palace!"

……

Half an hour later.

Meng Tian stepped into the gate of Yan Guoxingshe.

"Servant Meng!" After hearing the message from the servant, Ju Wu came in a hurry, smiled and cupped his hands: "Rare visitor! Rare visitor!"

"Come on, come on, Mr. Meng, come into the main hall!"

Meng Tian returned the courtesy with his hand and said with a smile: "I am here to convey the king's order."

There was a hint of surprise in Ju Wu's smile: "I wonder what the King of Qin has ordered?"

Meng Tian solemnly said: "My king invites Yan Xingren to the palace for a banquet!" Before Ju Wu could reply, there was a cry of surprise in the palace: "But the government...the King of Qin is calling?"

Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, Yan Dan, who had a rosy face and smelled of alcohol on his body, ran quickly into the front yard. He looked at Meng Tian with eyes full of expectation: "Is the King of Qin free?"

Yan Dan is extremely famous.

Hearing that Yan Dan was in Xianyang City, knights from all over the country gathered in Xianyang and feasted with Yan Dan all day long.

But what Yan Dan really longs for is that Ying Zheng can drink and chat with him, go hunting in the forest, eat meat and drink wine together!

Facing Yan Dan's expectant gaze, Meng Tian didn't know how to answer, so he could only repeat his own words: "My king invites Yan Xingren to the palace for a banquet!"

Yan Dan smiled contentedly and said, "Although it's not a safari, it's not bad to have a banquet together."

Ju Wu interrupted Yan Dan's words and bowed his hands: "Thank you, Minister Meng, for telling me."

"Let me wait until I change my clothes and then enter the palace immediately!"

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Meng, in the main hall."

Meng Tian shook his head: "I have to go to inform the travelers from Qi State, so I won't stay any longer."

"Farewell!"

After sending Meng Tian away from the dormitory, Ju Wu turned around and saw that Yan Dan's face was not very good.

Yan Dan originally thought that Ying Zheng specially invited him and Yan Guoxing to the banquet.

Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng also invited Qi Guoxingren.

This meaning is different!

Seeing this, Ju Wu sighed in his heart and asked in a deep voice: "Has the prince heard the sound of drums in the city?"

Yan Dan was slightly startled and then asked, "What do you mean, Taifu, that something big happened in Qin?"

Although the specific meanings of the drums of Yan and Qin are different, it is obviously not a small matter to be able to beat the bells and drums in the capital.

Ju Wu nodded lightly: "Summoning people from Yan and Qi one after another shows that this matter is not only an internal matter within Qin, but also a matter involving the world."

"Considering that Zhao and Chu have successively sent more troops to the border this year, I have reason to suspect that Zhao and Chu will take advantage of the autumn harvest to jointly attack Qin!"

Yan Dan's heart tightened: "What about me, Dayan?"

"Did I, Dayan, participate in the alliance?!"

Ju Wu shook his head: "If I, Dayan, participate in the alliance, the news will definitely come from the manpower left in the Yan Kingdom and the prince's retainers."

"Right now, neither you nor I have received any news. It is unlikely that Dayan will come to join the war."

Yan Dan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's so good!"

Ju Wu sighed softly: "Good, but not good."

"If I, the Great Yan, had not united with Zhao and Chu, Qin would definitely have the intention to join forces with my Great Yan."

"How should you and I respond then?"

Yan Dan said naturally: "I should agree!"

"Gu and Zhengdi are close friends. They not only made an alliance not to conquer, but also agreed to share Zhao territory."

"Last year, I, the Yan State, formed an alliance with Qin, and agreed to help each other and fight together when we go out."

"Am I, Dayan, going to betray our alliance?"

However, it was Ju Wu's silence that responded to Yan Dan.

The look of matter-of-factness on Yan Dan's face was gradually replaced by panic: "Master, what do you mean?"

Ju Wu looked at Yan Dan helplessly: "Have you not broken many covenants yet?"

Yan Dan wanted to angrily scold Ju Wu for disobeying the emperor.

But Yan Dan found that he was speechless.

Ju Wu's words are indeed rebellious, but they are the truth!

Yan Dan couldn't help but clenched her fists and murmured in fear and despair: "Do you want to be ashamed of your trust in Brother Zheng?"

"If my father betrays his alliance, how can I have the face to face Brother Zheng!"

"Teacher!"

"Is there any way to persuade my father to abide by the covenant?"

Yan Dan regards Xinyi as more important than his own life.

But he got involved with a father who valued faith more than toilet chips.

His father broke the agreement he made with his childhood, and he was the matchmaker of this agreement.

Yan Dan felt extremely ashamed of the world!

Ju Wu said solemnly: "What the prince should consider now is not whether he deserves his trust in King Qin."

"But your own life!"

Yan Dan shook his head: "Brother Gu Shenxin Zheng."

"Even if my father betrays his alliance, my brother Zheng will never use weapons against Gu Gu!"

Ju Wu shouted angrily: "Prince, how can you be so stupid!"

"Faith only exists between people, not between countries, let alone in the hearts of kings!"

"Now you are not only a close friend of King Qin, but also a proton on behalf of Dayan!"

"If Yan betrays his alliance and the King of Qin is indifferent to the prince, how can the King of Qin control other countries with protons!"

Yan Dan frowned and looked at Ju Wu firmly: "But, Gu is special!"

"If I treat brother Zheng with faith, brother Zheng will definitely treat me with faith!"

Ju Wu pointed at Yan Dan and shouted angrily: "Master, I only want to ask you one question."

"How many times have you met the King of Qin since you entered Xianyang?!"

Yan Dan was speechless and speechless.

Since he entered the Qin Dynasty, he and Ying Zheng have met no more than twenty times, and several of them were celebrations during the December Festival, when foreign ministers gathered together.

The number of times Yan Dan was actually alone with Ying Zheng, feasting, and chatting was no more than ten times!

This is completely different from Yan Dan's expectations for a close friend!

Ju Wu took a few steps forward and persuaded him earnestly: "Prince, please wake up!"

"The friendship between King Qin and you was exhausted long ago when you forced King Qin to fulfill your childhood promise!"
