Chapter 34 Working Together
As night fell, the city of Xianyang lit up with thousands of lights.
The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study.
A man in black robe stood in front of Ying Zheng, bowing.
"Is there anything else happening in Xianyang today?" Ying Zheng said.
The man in black robe was the head of the spies. Ying Zheng arranged many spies in Xianyang to monitor the entire city.
Every time night fell, the head of the spies would report to Ying Zheng the important events that happened in Xianyang that day.
"By the way, Your Majesty, the Marquis of Wucheng, Wang Jian, who was idle at home, suddenly brought his granddaughter Wang Ying to visit Mr. Tiandao Tower. What's strange is that in the end, only the Marquis of Wucheng left, but his granddaughter stayed in Tiandao Tower!" said the man in black robe.
Ying Zheng's eyes flickered, and his thoughts flowed.
The next moment he thought of something, stood up suddenly, and cursed:
"Damn it, you old fox Wang Jian, you are so fast even though you are old, you sent my granddaughter to Tiandao Tower without saying a word, are you trying to snatch my person from me!"
Ying Zheng rarely cursed.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
The eunuchs and spy leaders in the imperial study saw this and knelt on the ground, terrified!
When the king is angry, blood will flow and pestles will float, and millions of corpses will be buried!
They are naturally afraid!
Ying Zheng was like an angry lion, saying: "When will Princess Yangzi return?"
"Your Majesty, Princess Yangzi will not be able to return to Xianyang for another month and a half!" an eunuch reported.
Ying Zheng said: "Send someone to inform Princess Yangzi and her group on a fast horse, and let them rush back to Xianyang within a month!"
"Yes!" The eunuch hurriedly took the order and left.
The old fox Wang Jian sent his granddaughter to Tiandao Tower, and Ying Zheng had to hurry up.
The master has unpredictable powers, and Ying Zheng has long wanted to take this boy into his own hands. Last time, he specifically proposed to let the other party be the Qin State Master, but the master regarded the official position as dirt and was unwilling to be an official.
This direction does not work, Ying Zheng is ready to attack in another direction!
Marry the pearl in the palm of the hand, Princess Yangzi (also known as Ying Yinman), to the master and make him his son-in-law.
In this way, Ying Zheng thinks that the master will help him wholeheartedly!
After all, a son-in-law is half a son!
Princess Yangzi went out to travel some time ago and was not in Xianyang. Ying Zheng was going to take Princess Yangzi to see the master after she came back!
Who knew that the old fox Wang Jian took advantage of the opportunity!
At this time, a eunuch ran in and reported: "Your Majesty, Wucheng Hou wants to see you!"
Ying Zheng was stunned.
This old fox robbed my people and dared to come to see me. He is really bold!
"Announce!" Ying Zheng said simply.
Soon.
Wang Jian, with a strong body and gray hair, came to the imperial study and saluted respectfully: "Wang Jian pays respects to Your Majesty!"
"Humph, Marquis Wucheng, you are really fast!" Ying Zheng snorted coldly and said unhappily.
Wang Jian's eyes turned and he already understood what Qin Shihuang meant, but he pretended to be confused and said: "Your Majesty, I am still strong and my legs are indeed more flexible than Wang Ben and others!"
"I mean, you sent your granddaughter to Tiandao Tower really fast!" Ying Zheng made it clear.
Wang Jian made an expression of sudden enlightenment and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty, so that's what you mean! The master helped me a lot! I saw that the master lived alone in the huge Tiandao Tower, and there was not even a maid to serve him, so I asked my well-behaved granddaughter Ying'er to help the master with laundry, cooking, and cleaning, and listen to the master's teachings by the way!"
"Maid?" Ying Zheng frowned and said, "Let the daughter of the marquis be a maid? Marquis Wucheng, what are you thinking, old fox, don't think I don't know?"
"Your Majesty, that..."
Wang Jian smiled awkwardly.
But he was relieved that since His Majesty said such a thing, it meant that he had no intention of punishing him.
"In a few days, I will also send Princess Yangzi to be a maid for the master!" Ying Zheng said with a flash of inspiration in his mind.
Wang Jian was stunned.
Your Majesty doesn't play by the rules!
Shouldn't Your Majesty directly grant marriage to the master and Princess Yangzi?
Seeing Wang Jian was confused, Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Haha, Wang Jian, you old fox, you only allow your granddaughter to be a maid for the master, but you don't allow my Princess Yangzi to be a maid?"
"Your Majesty, I dare not, absolutely not!" Wang Jian said hurriedly.
The reason why Ying Zheng asked Princess Yangzi to be a maid for the master was actually inspired by Wang Jian.
Mr. Tiandaolou is a man of talent, and his temperament is very different from ordinary people. If he directly grants marriage, the master will definitely think that he is coercing him with the status of the emperor!
If the master is disgusted, he is likely to refuse!
Once the master refuses to grant marriage, it will be a very embarrassing thing for himself and Princess Yangzi!
It is impossible for Ying Zheng to force the master to marry Princess Yangzi!
It is even more impossible to have the master torn to pieces!
If the relationship with the master is messed up, who will give him Ying Zheng guidance in the future?
It can be said that it was the master who saved the Qin Dynasty!
Moreover, with the ability of the master, what kind of woman can't be found in this world?
Wang Jian is still a fox, shrewd and calculating!
First, send the granddaughter to Tiandao Tower as a maid, let the master and granddaughter have more contact, fall in love with each other, and then naturally promote a good thing!
Ying Zheng also decided to let Princess Yangzi enter Tiandao Tower as a maid, and fall in love with each other!
…
Ying Zheng no longer discussed the love affairs of young men and women, staring at Wang Jian with his tiger eyes without blinking: "Wu Chenghou, you come to see me late at night, what's the matter?"
Since retiring, the old fox Wang Jian has never taken the initiative to look for Ying Zheng.
He thought that Wang Jian must have something important to do this time.
Plop!
Wang Jian knelt down and said solemnly:
"Wang Jian begs your Majesty to let me lead troops to the north to destroy the Huns!"
After retiring for many years, Wang Jian was so idle at home that he had nothing to do except teach Wang Bi, a son-in-law and a son-in-law, and he almost fell ill.
Today, after hearing what Mr. Xi said, he suddenly became enlightened and woke up from a dream. He couldn't wait to come to ask His Majesty for a fight.
Wang Jian was afraid that if he arrived too late, the battle to destroy the Huns in the north would become someone else's favour!
So, he came all night!
Ying Zheng was quite surprised.
Ever since the Qin Dynasty destroyed Chu and unified the world, hasn't Wang Jian, an old fox, always been wise to protect himself, worried that his achievements would shock his master, so he would retire and return to his hometown, unwilling to fight again no matter what happened?
Tonight, why did you suddenly come to ask for a fight?
Although he was confused, Ying Zheng was very happy that Wang Jian could come out again!
Wang Jian was the God of War of the Qin Dynasty and made great achievements in establishing the Qin Empire.
Ying Zheng was very sorry for his retirement before!
"Hahaha, okay, I agree with Marquis Wu Cheng's request!" Ying Zheng stepped down from the throne and personally helped Wang Jian up, saying cheerfully.
He believed that with the war god Wang Jian leading the army to carry out the battle to destroy the Huns in the north, he would be able to do it without any mistakes!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for trusting me!"
Wang Jian knelt down again and put his head on the ground, saying extremely excitedly.
"Wu Chenghou, please get up quickly!"
Ying Zheng helped Wang Jian up, looked at him without blinking, and said curiously: "I am confused, you were not willing to fight anymore before, why did you take the initiative to ask for a fight tonight?"
"Your Majesty, all the old ministers were confused in the past and underestimated your Majesty's ambition and talent! Today, it was Mr. Tiandaolou who pointed me out and made me wake up like a dream..."
Wang Jian told Ying Zheng from the bottom of his heart his previous concerns about the highly accomplished master and Chen Qilin's words.
When Ying Zheng learned this, he was silent for a while.
After coming back to his senses, Ying Zheng grabbed Wang Jian's big hands and held them together, saying: "Wang Qing, if you and I, the king and my ministers, work together as one, the Huns will be destroyed!"
Wang Jian felt His Majesty's trust in him and said in a trembling voice:
"Work together and the Huns will be destroyed!!!"
