The two of them were stunned when they heard Fusu's words. At this time, Chen Ping was holding a piece of meat on his chopsticks. When he heard the words, the chopsticks were loosened, and the meat fell back into the plate, and the soup in it was thrown into the plate. It splashed out, but Chen Ping didn't feel it at all.But Zhang Liang just poured a sip of wine into his mouth, when he heard this, he became nervous, coughed loudly, and the wine flowed out of his mouth.

Fusu didn't expect that the two usually prudent people would lose their composure as soon as he mentioned the matter of personal conquest, and looked at them very puzzled.Chen Ping first woke up from the shock, quickly put the chopsticks on the table, and said: "Your Majesty, absolutely not!" Zhang Liang also tried his best to control his coughing, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, this matter is too much. Taking risks, you really shouldn’t think about it.”

Fusu took a look at the two, and said with a faint smile: "What's so risky about this? Why didn't I notice it?"

The two of Chen Ping glanced at each other, and it was still Zhang Liang who said, "Your Majesty is the Lord of my Great Qin. If you go to the battlefield, the people of Chu will definitely try to harm you at all costs. And now we have the Great Qin Empire." Before long, there may still be some people who oppose the emperor in the Central Plains, if the emperor leaves Xianyang now, the society may not be stable."

Fusu said: "This time our Great Qin will send 20 horses to attack Chu. The strength is twice that of the enemy, and the equipment is well equipped, and the soldiers are brave. Is there any safer place than being protected by 20 horses? Surrounded by such a heavy army, if I will still be injured by the Chu people, then how can the only [-] to [-] people in Xianyang City save my life? As for what you said, you are afraid that people in the Central Plains will be ready to move after I leave, I also I have already thought about it. Although most of the Central Plains have completely surrendered to me, after all, there are still some people from the six countries who miss the old country. Now that I am here, they only dare to do some tricks secretly, but the harm is not small. But if I leave Xianyang, or even leave the Central Plains and go to the south, then they will completely expose themselves under the circumstances they are worried about, and it will be much easier to get rid of them. And it is not that there are no people sitting in Xianyang City , I have decided that Chen Qing and you will handle government affairs here, and the prince Yingwei, although he is still young, can still be the prince of the country. With the two of you in Xianyang City, you have both name and reality, so what is there to do? What are you worried about?"

Zhang Liang didn't want his opinion to help Su, and his rebuttal was also very reasonable, so he had nothing to say, so he had to look at Chen Ping.But now Chen Ping only thinks that the emperor trusts him so much. In this way, he completely entrusts the country and the country to himself. He was moved and forgot to persuade him for a while.After a while, he thought of another key point, that is, Fusu planned to focus on cultivating his eldest son Yingwei. Although Fusu only has such a son now, a king will always have many children. The intention of Ying Wei to supervise the country is to make him a prince.Thinking of this, Chen Ping didn't dare to open his mouth casually. After all, the emperor's affairs were not something that a courtier could casually talk about.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Fusu knew that he had completely convinced them. In order to prevent them from finding other reasons to come out, Fusu decided to strike while the iron was hot, and said: "And the purpose of this conquest of Chu is to Take Chu back into our hands, instead of letting the people of Chu know how powerful my Great Qin is. If you want the Chu people to really submit to me, in addition to showing the military might of my Great Qin, you still need some other means. And I went there to make the people of Chu accept us as soon as possible. Therefore, I must go to attack Chu this time."

Seeing Fusu's resolute expression and hearing Fusu's unquestionable words, the two already knew that Fusu was determined to lead the troops himself, so they could only accept this fact.But then Zhang Liang said again: "If the emperor wants to attack Chu in person, then the minister should also accompany him, and I hope the emperor will approve."

Fu Su smiled and said: "Didn't I just say that Chen Qing is required to take charge of the overall situation in Xianyang City and deliver food and grass to the front for me? Zhang Qing, of course you want to follow me to Chu. How can I do without you, the strategist?" Among them, what about the talents who are thousands of miles away?" Seeing that the two finally agreed with his idea, Fu Su was overjoyed, and moved over the words that Liu Bang used to praise Zhang Liang in history.

"Your Majesty praised him, but I can't bear it." Hearing that Fusu had such a high opinion of him, Zhang Liang was overjoyed. It turned out that the little doubt that Fusu only let Chen Ping stay in Xianyang was also thrown away. .

At this point, Fusu no longer discussed state affairs with the two, but began to chat with them about family affairs, and at the same time persuaded them to drink frequently, and the three monarchs and ministers broke up happily.When Fusu returned to the harem, he saw Xiaotao watching him silently by his son's side. "Xiao Tao, what's the matter with you?" Seeing her unhappy face, Fu Su couldn't help being puzzled.

"Your majesty, my concubine heard that you are going to lead troops to go out again, so I feel a little sad." Xiao Tao said softly.

"Silly girl, what's so sad about this?" Fusu stepped forward and hugged Xia Tao lovingly in his arms, "I'm just going out this time to put on a show, and I don't want my relatives to go into battle to kill the enemy , and there are 20 troops accompanying me, and there must be a lot of guards around me, so what is there to worry about?"

Xiaotao glanced at Fusu, and said timidly: "The emperor, please forgive my concubine's boldness, and say a few words. In fact, my Daqin is already old enough, why should the emperor bother to go to the Chu country? And as the emperor, you belong to the people of the world. If you What is there... but what should I do? It is better for the emperor to stay in Xianyang City."

If this was said by other people, Fusu must have been furious at this time, but Xiaotao is just a person who cares about herself, and only wants to be safe in her heart, so Fusu knows that what she said is from the bottom of her heart.Fu Su smiled and said: "What I'm doing now is not to grab other people's land, but to take back the land that should have belonged to us in China... the Great Qin people. When the First Emperor was here, the lands of the six countries were all under my Great Qin's rule. Now, if I am the emperor but hand him back to the people of Chu, what will the people of Daqin think of me? After I die, I will face the first emperor in the ground. So this time I must recapture the land of Chu Come back and regain the glory of the first emperor!"

Xiaotao saw Fusu's captivating demeanor when he said he wanted to take Chu land back, and then she realized that she really fell in love with this person.Not because he is his master, not because he is the emperor, but because he is a man with ambition and ideals worthy of entrusting him. "Since the emperor's mind has been made up, the concubine can only wish the emperor an early victory and return, and all the little peaches in the palace will work hard to learn how to manage it."

Fu Su hugged Xiao Tao tightly: "Xiao Tao, I promise you that I will return soon. When I return, I will make you my queen." The two hugged each other quietly like this, There is no language to describe the relationship between the two.

On the second day, the people in Xianyang City already knew the news that the three armies of the Chu people were defeated by the Qin army one by one, and after five days, the rumors that the Chu people would be destroyed by the Great Qin had spread throughout the Central Plains.Of course, this was also a tactic that Fusu and the others used before the war started. It was not only to convince the people of Qin that the great Qin army would definitely destroy the state of Chu, but also to make the people of Chu afraid, so that they could not do their best to fight with the Qin army on the battlefield. war.

After the news spread, Fusu said in front of all the ministers that he wanted to personally lead the troops to the Chu Kingdom in the court hall one day.At that time, many conservative ministers raised objections. The most powerful excuse was that when Qin Shihuang destroyed the six kingdoms, he did not personally conquer. Now Fusu's status is even more respected by the emperor. Should not go.

But Fusu said that they were just following the old ways and didn't understand the reason.Most of those courtiers were originally from Hu Hai who had just surrendered, so naturally they didn't dare to really fall out with the emperor, so they pinned their hopes on Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, who followed Fusu to conquer the world. on people.

Seeing that all the officials were looking at the two of them, Chen Ping and Zhang Liang could only look at each other with wry smiles, and then stopped talking.When those ministers saw that the two of them did not raise any objections, they knew that Fusu's mind had been decided, and it was beyond their control, so in the end they could only agree to Fusu's decision to go out in person.

Fusu saw that the officials still agreed with his decision, and was very satisfied with his way of persuading Chen Ping and Zhang Liang from the beginning.If I didn't negotiate with Chen and Zhang first, but brought it up now, then these two people will inevitably oppose my personal conquest like other courtiers, and in this way, all the courtiers I have to persuade are all the courtiers. With the support of the ministers behind Liang Er, I'm afraid it will not be as easy to persuade as that day.Seeing that the ministers had no objections, Fusu immediately issued an imperial decree to express his determination. He asked the Qin troops stationed in various places to rush to the southern counties within half a month, and all the troops were ready. He set off from Xianyang and headed for Chu.

It wasn't until the imperial decree was issued that this expedition became an unchangeable established fact that Fusu was completely relieved.In fact, there is another reason in his heart that he cannot express, that is, he wants to fight Xiang Yu once on the battlefield, and use his real strength to defeat the overlord of Western Chu, so as to leave a mark in history.Of course, staying in the palace all the time and being bored is another reason why he wants to go out.

On the fifth day of June, on the scorching sun, Fusu left Xianyang with [-] imperial guards and headed south. The second stage of the Qin-Chu War finally arrived.
