"Sir, Chu has now fallen into an unprecedented chaos, and the two princes, Xiong You and Xiong Lie, who are most eager to inherit the throne, are questioned by many ministers. They are related to the death of the previous king! Now it seems that you can only return to Chu to support the overall situation!" Xiang Liang, the second son of Xiang Yan, knelt on one knee in front of Mi Qi, the Changping Lord of the Qin Dynasty.
"Yes! Sir, General Xiang is right! Now it is the people's will that you, the only son of King Gaoxiang (Xiong Zan), return to Chu to preside over the overall situation!" Fan Zeng, a famous counselor of the Xiang family, also knelt on one knee in front of Mi Qi.
"Let me return to Chu to support the overall situation. Is this what the people of Chu want? Or is it what the people of your Xiang family want?" Mi Qi asked with a little anger.
"This... This is naturally what all the people of Chu want!" Xiang Liang responded with some hesitation.
"Yes, General Xiang is right! This is what all the people of Chu want!" Fan Zeng added without any hesitation.
"Okay! For the sake of General Xiang Yan, I will pretend that I have never seen you two today! Go!" Mi Qi issued an order to expel Xiang Yan and Fan Zeng.
"Sir, don't forget that you carry the blood of the royal family of Chu!" Xiang Liang kowtowed to Mi Qi.
"What a joke! I carry the blood of the royal family of Qin! Tell me, do I still want to fight for the throne of Qin?" Mi Qi asked with his own humor and counterattack.
In this way, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng, who had asked for trouble, left the back door of Changping Junfu in disgrace. However, when they arrived at the gate of Xianyang City, dozens of guards from Heibingtai and Yingmiwei came and surrounded them.
"General Xiang, Mr. Fan, our king invites you!" The leading guard said to Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng with courtesy.
At this point, even if they resisted desperately, it would be useless. Therefore, after Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng looked at each other for a few times, they followed these guards and walked towards the direction of Xianyang Palace.
When Ying Zheng summoned Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng in Zhangtai Palace, he was silent, and then he dealt with some memorials in an orderly manner in front of the two of them.
"King Qin, why did you summon us here today? Even if you want to kill us, you should give us a clear answer first!" Xiang Liang finally couldn't sit still and spoke.
"Come here! Bring General Xiang and Mr. Fan into the prison and serve them well!" After Ying Zheng put down the memorial in his hand, he said to Zhao Gao beside him expressionlessly.
"Yes! Come here! Do it!" After Zhao Gao received the order, he shouted to the "air".
Then, the six-man assassin team newly trained by Luowang, the Six Sword Slaves, came around Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng.
Since Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng were both martial artists, they could clearly sense that these six assassins were first-class martial arts masters. Once they started fighting, they would not be able to get any advantage in the hands of these six sword slaves.
In this way, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng allowed the six sword slaves to take them to the Qin prison without resistance.
In the next three days and three nights, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng experienced the cruel methods of the Qin jailers.
But what made Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng feel a little strange was that the Qin jailers just took various torture instruments and kept hitting them, but they didn't even ask them a question, as if they just wanted to torture them very simply.
After three days and three nights of torture, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng were taken to a luxurious palace, and then they enjoyed unprecedented high-standard treatment here.
While Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng were still confused, rumors spread from Qin to Chu that they had told Ying Zheng the secrets of the Chu State and the Xiang family because they could not stand the torture of the Qin jailers.
It even reached the ears of Xiong Jian's sons and Chu officials who were fighting for the throne. As a result, Xiang Yan was immediately arrested by Xiong Jian.’s disciples, as well as most of the officials of Chu, were deeply suspicious of them.
When Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng were no longer of any use, Ying Zheng “showed great mercy” and ordered people to let them leave the Qin State, and also ordered people to force them to give them a valuable amount of gold, silver and jewelry.
When the Qin soldiers who were responsible for escorting Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng back to Chu received a letter from a carrier pigeon, they immediately dispersed.
Then, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng, who were still in a circle, were intercepted and killed by a group of unknown lunatics.
After a bloody battle, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng were both injured, but the gold, silver and jewelry that Ying Zheng gave them were taken away by the lunatics without a single piece left.
At this time, the news that Ying Zheng gave gold to Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng, but was robbed on the way, once again reached the ears and eyes of Xiong Jian's sons and Chu officials, and along with these news, there were also rumors that they had desperately protected the gold, silver and jewelry given by Qin Wang Zheng.
After this rumor, the rumor that Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng had rebelled against Chu and returned to Qin could not be washed away even if they jumped into the Yellow River, and in this way, Xiang Yan was really completely isolated by the entire Chu State.
When Xiang Yan was isolated by the entire Chu State, the battle for the throne between Xiong Jian's sons began to enter the final decisive stage.
In the end, the three strongest people, Xiong You, Xiong Lie and Fu Chu, and the inconspicuous youngest son of Xiong Jian, Xiong Gao, together broke the huge Chu State into four small Chu States: East Chu, South Chu, West Chu and North Chu.
Yes, this inconspicuous Xiong Gao was just a puppet supported by a group of Chu officials who wanted to move up in official positions. That's right, in any world and any era, don't underestimate the combined strength of these small figures.
"Congratulations, Master, your plan to split Chu has been perfectly completed! I'm here to toast you a glass!" At this time, in the hall of Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng was facing Belo and raised a glass of wine.
"King Qin, all this still depends on the concerted efforts of all the ministers! This national teacher dare not take all the credit!" Belo distributed the credit for the split of Chu to the heads of the Qin ministers.
"Good! The national teacher is indeed a man of high moral character! Come! Pass on my will. The success of this plan to split Chu is all due to the credit of all the ministers. Therefore, every civil and military official present will be promoted by one level!" Ying Zheng said with a wave of his hand!
