Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 317 Entering Xianyang (7)

Yan Le left Zuo Xiangguo's mansion with anger, and Yan Yi who was beside him hurriedly led the horse.

A group of people got on their horses, Yan Yi cupped his hands and asked Yan Le: "My lord, where are you going?"

Yan Le took a deep breath to calm down the anger in his heart, and then said to Yan Yi: "You took half of the troops back to the mansion, and then took the name cards to General Wu Hua of the Forbidden Army, General Qingxi Habayashi, Lieutenant He Lianhe, Lord Lord Lieutenant Liang Xu, Central Guard Lu Ru and others come to the mansion, and invite them to enter the mansion tonight for a talk!"

"Here!" Yan Yigong took the order and returned to the Taiwei Mansion with fifty cavalry, and Yan Le took the remaining fifty cavalry to the palace.

Since Ziying was co-signed by Feng Jie and others, he has given up on himself and spent all day drinking and having fun in the palace.

After Yan Le stepped into the Jiaofang Palace where Ziying was, he saw Ziying hugging Queen Jia and watching the dance that the dancers had just rehearsed.

"Chen Yan Le, see Your Majesty!" Yan Le approached Ziying from the side, and then bowed his hands to pay homage.

"Taiwei doesn't need to be so polite!" Ziying waved his hand unceremoniously to signal Yan Le to get up, and then loudly ordered the eunuch beside him to set up the table. "Give me a seat! Since the Taiwei is here, let's watch the dance that these dancers have just rehearsed with me!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Le cupped his hands and thanked, then sat on the table set up by the eunuchs, and then looked up at Ziying, who was enjoying the singing and dancing.

Ziying also noticed that Yan Le was looking at him, so he picked up the wine glass on the table and said: "Come, Yan Aiqing, drink this glass together!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Le was very flattered and hurriedly picked up the wine glass to invite Ziying, who was above her, feeling more and more puzzled.

Although he was puzzled, Yan Le knew that as a courtier, he should not ask too many questions, so he drank the wine in the cup.

Seeing Yan Le drink the wine in the cup, Ziying asked aloud: "Yan Aiqing is not in the south to stop Hanzhong's rebellion for my Great Qin, why did you return to Xianyang?"

"The traitors in Hanzhong are nothing to worry about, but the traitors from Chu who entered Guanzhong are really great enemies!" Hearing Ziying's question, Yan Le immediately stated generously: "I heard from the camp in Xieshui that Chu Ni has broken through Hangu. Entering Guanzhong, I was anxious and left my soldiers and horses to guard against the enemy in Hanzhong, and returned to Xianyang with most of the elite under my command."

"I am willing to lead these [-] elite soldiers to serve as your majesty and defeat Chu's rebels for the great Qin! Even if you die, you will have no regrets!"

"Yan Aiqing's heart is really a blessing to Great Qin! I'm a blessing!" Ziying's depressed mood for more than ten days eased a little after hearing the words, and praised Yan Le. "

"I am a minister of the Great Qin, so I have to do my best to take action for the prosperity of the Great Qin! It is not worthy of your majesty's praise!" Yan Le bowed his hands very modestly to express his gratitude, and then said: "Besides, the princes of the Manchu Dynasty are also for the sake of the great Qin. Continuing to rule the world, we are in full swing to recruit troops and raise food! The two prime ministers and all the civil and military personnel in the court are working hard to fight back the Chu thieves who invaded the pass! Your Majesty praised the minister, which made the minister panic!"

Seeing the sincerity of Yan Le's words, Ziying couldn't help sighing: "Yan Taiwei is humble, but he is much better than the other princes in the court!"

Yan Le heard that Ziying's words were quite dissatisfied with the rest of the people above the court, so he asked cautiously: "Why did your majesty say that?"

"The edict I issued was not what I intended. It was a letter signed by all the civil and military officials in the court to force me to issue this edict to gather the strength of the Qin people to fight against Chu's rebellion!" Then he said to the curious Yan Le. "My original intention is to negotiate with Chu and keep my west of Tongguan, so that my Great Qin can continue to survive in the world! But I don't want the people of Qin in Guanzhong to die again for the sake of the so-called country and society!"

Yan Le really didn't expect that Ziying would surrender to the Kwantung Allied Forces that had already entered the pass in order to prevent the population of Guanzhong from continuing to drop sharply, which made him a little at a loss.

But Yan Ledang, who had reacted, even cupped his hands and praised: "Your Majesty is a rare benevolent lord who disregards himself for the sake of the people in Guanzhong! It is a blessing for three lives to be able to become a subject of Your Majesty!"

"Ai Qing's words really make me feel ashamed!" Hearing Yan Le's praise, Ziying felt ashamed and guilty instead of being happy.

Ziying's shame is that although he is the emperor, he cannot control the important officials in the court, so that he and others jointly negotiate and reject the Allied Forces of the Six Kingdoms in the Kanto regardless of their own will; The people resisted the enemy, but this edict had to be issued out of intention, which made Ziying feel that he was the most humiliating monarch in the hundreds of years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty.

What Ziying feels guilty about is nothing more than letting the children of the Qin people in Guanzhong continue to fall into the flames of war and cannot extricate themselves.

After Yan Le had finished speaking in Ziying, he stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I and the [-] elite under my command are willing to be Your Majesty's pawns! If Your Majesty really wants to negotiate peace with the Kanto rebels, I am willing to share your worries and solve problems for Your Majesty!"

Ziying was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then planned with Yan Le in the palace.

..............................

That night.

In Taiwei's mansion.

Wu Hua, Qingxi, He Lianhe, Liang Xu, and Lu Ru, who had received Yan Le's invitation, were all present, and all of them had a close relationship with Yan Le except for He Lianhe.

"General Qing, do you know why the Taiwei called us here?" Lu Ru looked at Qingxi who was sitting opposite Wu Hua and asked aloud.

Lu Ru's question made Liang Xu and He Lianhe listen attentively.Ge Yinqingxi is from Yan Le's old department, and his relationship with Yan Le is deeper than that of other people present.

"The Taiwei just returned to Xianyang today. I don't know what the Taiwei called for! But I think it must be a big event, otherwise the two adults, the Central Guard Army and the Lord Lieutenant, would not let go of their busy affairs and come to discuss the matter!" Qingxi shook his head, then sarcastically said.

"You!" Lu Ru and Liang Xu couldn't hear Qingxi's sarcasm, and Liang Xu, who was not good enough, immediately stood up and pointed at Qingxi.

"We are all colleagues, don't hurt your temper!" For a while, the atmosphere in the main hall of Taiwei's mansion was a little cold, and He Lianhe stood up and persuaded.

"That's right! What Lieutenant He Lianhe said is true!" Wu Hua, who was sitting at the lower left of Qingxi, also persuaded him.

Seeing this, Lu Ru pulled Liang Xu's sleeve.

He only heard Liang Xu hum, and sat down again with a flick of his sleeves.Although Liang Xu sat down, the anger in his chest was hard to dissipate, and Lu Ru's expression on the side was also extremely embarrassing.

Soon Yan Le entered the main hall, and everyone got up to salute.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yan Le said that the five people were summoned here because of the emperor's entrustment.Summon the Chinese and military forces of the court, and divide the powers of Sima Cong and Feng Jie.

Liang Xu and Lu Ru did not agree on the spot, but He Lianhe, Wu Hua, and Qingxi did.

...........................

The next day, Qin III Emperor Ziying issued an edict to divide the army of Xianyang Daying into two parts, and set up two armies in the north and south.Among them, 15 Southern Army, led by Zuo Xiangguo Sima Cong, was stationed in the east of Xianyang City; [-] Northern Army, led by Taiwei Yan Le, was stationed in the original camp.

Sima Cong was very dissatisfied with Ziying's edict, but the emperor's order was hard to violate and Feng Jie persuaded him to take 15 troops to the east of Xianyang City for training.

The movement of Xianyang was transmitted to the coalition camp east of Tongguan, and Xiang Yu couldn't help shaking his head when he got the news.

Then, Xiang Yu said to the small school on duty in the tent: "Beat the drums, and summon the military, Chinese and military commanders to discuss the matter!"

"Here!" Xiaoxiao bowed his hands and led away.
