Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 5 is Handan
Sure enough, after seeing the brigade commander of this group of people, Ziying, mother and son were not treated as prisoners, but were treated as VIPs after some conversation. As a result, he followed the three of them to the country of Zhao.

Fortunately, these people had already heard about Cheng Yu being granted the title of Lord Raoyang, and the group diverted to go directly to Raoyang on the border of Yanzhao.

It turned out that after the Qin army was slandered as rebellious at the beginning, they were filled with righteous indignation and wanted to fight to the death for an explanation.In the beginning, the battle went smoothly and defeated Lu Buwei's confidant who came to crusade, but in the later period, he was outnumbered, and even the commander-in-chief Chang'an Jun Chengyu was seriously injured.

After being injured, Cheng Yu immediately forced the rest of the army to go with him to Zhao State, and ordered General Pu Wei to command his troops as the rear.And this group of people belonged to the remnants of this army. After Pu Ji was defeated, they hid in the mountains and escaped the capture of Lu Buwei's army. Now there are only about [-] people left.

In order to avoid attracting attention, the remaining soldiers of the Qin Army changed into ordinary people's clothes and followed Ziying and his party to Raoyang as guards.

After more than a month's journey, the party finally arrived at Chengyu's fiefdom, Raoyang, which is located on the border of Yanzhao.

The arrival of Ziying and mother Du Ling naturally surprised Chengyu, but Chengyu's own situation was not optimistic. When resisting Lu Buwei's crusade against the army, Chengyu was shot by several arrows, and then marched continuously until he reached Handan, the capital of Zhao State. In time to deal with it.By this time, the arrow wound had worsened.

As early as in the state of Qin, Cheng Yu heard about the fact that the current king of Zhao, Yan Chongxin, the greedy minister Guo Kai, caused a generation of famous general Lian Po to stay in the state of Wei.Knowing that Guo Kai is greedy for money and good things, and is favored by King Zhao, fortunately, Cheng Yu's army was armed with a lot of military resources, so he ordered people to bring a hundred gold to lobby in advance.

In addition, Cheng Yu has a special status, the dignified prince of Qin, and the brother of the king of Qin who has defected to Zhao, which undoubtedly greatly enhanced the prestige of Zhao among other countries.

However, there are still more than [-] fierce soldiers of the Qin army led by Cheng Yu. It always feels a bit like lying on the side of the couch on the edge of Handan. Lord Raoyang, stationed in the Rao land on the border of Yanzhao, firstly, it is safe to be far away from Handan and Qin and Zhao. Secondly, Yanzhao has been fighting continuously in recent years. Zhao Border can be regarded as making the best use of everything.

Therefore, under the unanimous opinion of the monarchs and ministers of Zhao State, Cheng Yu was named Lord Raoyang, and led the soldiers of the Qin Army to the forefront of resisting the State of Yan.

Everyone finally had a foothold, the fly in the ointment, Cheng Yu's injury became more and more serious day by day, and when the child, baby, mother and child arrived, they could only lie on the sickbed and could not move.

In any case, although the ending is not very satisfactory, at least the family is finally together again.

Ziying also gradually began to integrate into this era from being out of place when he first came to this world.

However, only half a month later, a messenger from Handan brought an order that Ziying's family could hardly accept.

"I heard that the son of Lord Raoyang abandoned Qin and came to Zhao. I was very comforted. I heard that the son was young and knowledgeable, and he was quite like a father. I was very surprised. I ordered the son of Raoyang Lord to go to Handan to pay homage today. The people of Yan attacked many times, but they kept guard. Heavy army, Lord Raoyang will take care of him."

It seems to be amicable, just recruiting Ziying to go to Handan, the capital of the country, and caring about Chengyu by the way, so that he doesn't have to worry. Although the relationship between Yan Kingdom and us is not good, don't worry, our army stationed at the border in Zhao Kingdom few.

And the deeper meaning is, I heard that your son has come to the country of Zhao, so hurry up and send Handan as a hostage, otherwise our country's garrison at the border will not be able to say who to attack.

Speaking of which, at that time, sending protons to another country or conferring hostages on the court was not so incomprehensible, and it was even very common. When the current king of Qin Yingzheng was young, he did it with his father and a different person in the country of Zhao. Proton after a while.When the two countries form an alliance or one country seeks help from the other, it is common practice to send protons as a sign of trust.

"I don't agree. We escaped from Qin State to Zhao State after going through untold hardships. Only a few days after the family reunion, I let my poor child go to Handan to be a proton. Poor my child, he is only two years old. How could he be allowed to go so far away. If we had known this, our mother and son might as well guard the palace of the former king honestly in Yongcheng, at least we would not end up in a situation where mother and son are separated!"

In front of Chengyu's couch, Du Ling hugged Ziying and shouted in a hoarse voice.

As for Cheng Xu, who was lying on the hospital bed, his face became even paler for a while, and several veteran generals of the Qin Army were kneeling on both sides, and they couldn't say a word in embarrassment.

Just now, they proposed to obey King Zhao's decree temporarily and send Ziying to Handan. They never thought that Ziying's mother would react so strongly.

After thinking about it carefully, it is really unreasonable for a grown man to propose to send a two-year-old child as a proton in front of his mother.

However, if you don't send it off, not only the prince, but also the 5000 people who stayed in Raoyang will be wiped out instantly.Although Zhao Guo's national power has declined day by day after the First World War in Changping, it is still the existence with the highest military power among the six eastern countries.I am afraid that he will never tolerate a disobedient army in his own country.

For a while, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little awkward.As if time stood still, except for everyone's panting, there was no noise at all.

At this moment, a milky voice pierced the silence in the room.

"Father, mother, I want to go to Handan!"

Looking at the deadlocked atmosphere in the house, Ziying, who has the wisdom of an adult, of course knows that going to Handan is the best choice, and his father's army will not suffer any grievances when he is out, and he may have a good life in order to win Chengyu .But if you don't go, regardless of your parents and the [-] remaining soldiers of the Qin army, your own life may not be safe, so after careful consideration, you will speak.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he immediately drew the attention of the whole room to himself.After being stared at by so many people, although Ziying has the mind of an adult, he was in a trance for a while.

"Does my son know that if he goes to Handan as a mother, he won't be able to accompany him?"

The first one to speak was her mother Du Ling. Since her son suggested it, she was not as emotional as before. She thought that the child was young and didn't know what it was like to be a proton, so she told her to do it. If the proton can't be with the parents, the child's thoughts will be dispelled.

"No, mother, I'm going to Handan. I was playing in the yard yesterday, and I heard someone tell a story. Before that, Zhao Guo also had a Chang'an Lord. Later, other countries wanted him to be a hostage. The Queen Mother of Zhao State felt sorry for her son. It was not allowed at first. But a very smart person told Queen Mother Zhao that if she felt sorry for Mr. Changan, let him be a proton, otherwise it would be harming him.

If he doesn't go, he hasn't made any contribution to the country, so how can he pass on his throne.It won't last long for sure.Now I am the same, I will definitely do meritorious service if I go to be a proton, and I will be Lord Raoyang when I come back later, the generals will definitely listen to me. "

Ziying tried his best to finish the story of Zhao Guochang An Jun and Zhao Queen Mother in a childlike voice.

As soon as the words were finished, Cheng Yu, who was lying on the hospital bed, said: "My son is willing to go to Handan to relieve Raoyang's misfortune. I am very relieved. I am alone and sick on the couch. As the child said, the future is unpredictable, and the generals are willing to help Babies, for the sake of future affairs?"

After hearing Ziying's words, Cheng Yu immediately thought of something that could be used.My serious injury may not last for a few years, and the most worrying thing is, once I die, will Ziying be able to make this group of proud soldiers obey orders honestly?
And in Ziying's words, there is exactly one point, if I go to Handan by myself, it is equivalent to saving everyone's life, will you listen to me when I come back in the future?If all the generals can make promises in public, it will undoubtedly lay a good foundation for Ziying to lead the army in the future!

"We are willing to follow your lord and your son, with all our heart and soul."

After listening to the words of the generals, Ziying also heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had made the right move. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the theory of gods and ghosts was prevalent, and people generally paid more attention to promises, and they would keep the promises they made.

Seeing that this incident might lay the foundation for his son's future development, Du Ling, who had always been opposed to Ziying's going to Handan, was speechless. He just hugged Ziying tightly in his arms, enjoying the time with his son. moments together.
