Eternal traitor

Chapter 445

Within the capital of King Qin.

The life of the common people in the Qin State gradually shifted to daily work and rest, but the expressions of tension and worry could not be concealed.Although they don't know how the battle is going on at the border, they have all heard that the Five Kingdoms are attacking Qin together this time. Can the Qin family stop it? ?Can Qi, an ally thousands of miles away, help? ?

They don't know, but storytellers are bragging about the strength of Qin every day, telling them that this battle will never be lost, but in fact, no matter what others say, the horror of the battle is still buried in people's hearts.

"There has been no news for several days."

"Don't dare to spread the news after losing the battle??"

"Don't talk nonsense. I heard that the front guards can kill tens of thousands of enemies every day."

············
On the street, what the common people talked about most was still the situation ahead. A few days ago, they could receive battle reports every day, and storytellers would also talk about the contents of the battle reports, but five days had passed, and not a single battle report had been released. Back, no one knew what was going on in such a weird situation, and the common people had all kinds of guesses about it.

"Get out, get out."

In the downtown area, a galloping man charged quickly, yelling constantly to get pedestrians to disperse.The galloping horse passed through the crowd hastily getting out of the way, and it would be fatal for the rider to hit someone at such a speed.However, everyone didn't feel any dissatisfaction after seeing the appearance of the man on horseback, because... this is the urgent battle report from Babaili.

If this kills the blind man, not only will there be no compensation, but the family will be punished, because you have delayed the war.

"see it?"

"Here comes the battle report."

"Win or lose??"

"I do not know."

Looking at the soldiers going away, the civilians stretched their necks to look at the man, but they didn't see any unnecessary expressions.Suspicion began to spread again, and soon the entire King of Qin knew the news of the battle report.

･･････････
in the palace.

Sitting on the throne, Ying Zheng listened expressionlessly to the reports of the courtiers. However, after the courtiers reported the situation, Ying Zheng didn't say anything. He stared ahead, obviously lost in thought.

There was no battle report for the fifth day, so how could Ying Zheng care to listen to these big things? ?What he was more worried about was the situation at the border. None of the people sent out came back. Was the battle over there defeated? ?Fallen? ?Otherwise, why no news? ?

Could it be that thing? ?What Yingzheng was most worried about was the edict he gave to Li Hua before. Changing coaches on the spot was a big taboo, so he wrote the edict out of his suspicion, and now he regrets it a little.My uneasy heart was always concerned about the situation at the border, and I lost my mind unconsciously.

"Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty."

The queen mother on the side whispered twice, and Ying Zheng suddenly came back to his senses, raised his hand and let the person who had just spoken go down. As for what he reported, Ying Zheng simply went in his left ear and out his right ear. up.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Lu Buwei stood up, saluted and stopped talking.

"What's the matter, Prime Minister Lu?"

Ying Zheng frowned and looked at Lu Buwei. This old man hasn't been unhappy for a long time, not to mention that the Marquis of Shu is still in the palace today, what kind of tricks is he going to play? ?

"It's nothing important, but there are businessmen who come and go to Hangu Pass in the minister's house. Some small news has been sent back. I wonder if the king wants to hear it?"

Lu Buwei said that it was the news from the businessman, but in only five days, which businessman has the time to travel overnight? ?

"Since Lu Xiang has news, you might as well tell Gu to hear it."

Ying Zheng smiled curiously, never thought that Lu Buwei's eyeliner would get the news earlier than his own people? ?Could it be that his own people were detained? ?Ying Zheng's uneasiness intensified.

"I don't know if it's true, but I heard that Li Hua, the supervising army re-activated by the king, held the edict in his hand and dismissed General Wang Jian as the commander-in-chief?"

Lu Buwei looked at Ying Zheng with a smile on his face. Li Hua took your edict to change the commander. This is a big taboo. If you say you didn't do it, then fine. .But you have to admit it, so what is the purpose?If the frontier loses, whose fault is it? ?

Li Hua's?Or is it your... Yingzheng's? ?
"It's a big taboo for the king to change his coach before the battle."

"Your Majesty has never heard of this matter."

"But Li Hua faked the edict??"

･･･････
When Lu Buwei said something, the whole court was boiling. War is an important matter related to the country and society. Why don't you discuss it with us if you act so stubbornly? ?If you lose the battle in front of you, you will be the king of subjugation.

Words of dissatisfaction emerged one after another and began to force Yingzheng. Even the courtiers who had encouraged Yingzheng to change the coach also changed their mouths one after another, saying that they were just talking about a possibility, and you didn’t discuss changing the coach. Don't care about my business.

"shut up."

The old voice had a hint of confidence, and the simple two words stopped the entire court from arguing in an instant. At the forefront of all the officials, the other Shu Hou who had never spoken a word slowly stood up.

The rickety body turned his head and looked at the crowd. "The coaching change was strongly recommended by me. What else do you have to ask, just ask the old man? If there is any problem at the border, the old man will hang on the beam of the house. Can you do this?"

The majestic voice came out of the old man's mouth, and everyone who was aggressive just now was dumbfounded. Is this old man going to kill himself? ?You are not joking, now that the Marquis of Shu dares to say such a thing in front of all the officials, then a military order has been issued. In this way, if the border is defeated, this old man... or withdraw from the court , or die in the temple.

"Shuhou..."

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Shuhou's veteran behind him shaking him, Ying Zheng's heart was about to collapse in an instant.Because of his own little suspicion, he made a mistake, and now he doesn't know what happened at the border, but Lu Buwei dared to say so, so Li Hua must have used that edict.

Once defeated, Qin must have someone to take responsibility for the mistakes, either Li Hua, or the Marquis of Shu, or... it is him.

The Marquis of Shu is old, but his heart is like a bright mirror. Everyone makes mistakes, and so does Ying Zheng.But today's Qin State still has the confidence to make mistakes, but someone must pay the price.

If he is dead, this matter can be suppressed, and there is still a turning point for Qin, but if Li Hua is blamed by Ying Zheng, things will not be so simple.Li Hua was involved in too many things, and Ying Zheng was registered as the new king. His young affairs were already talked about by others. If he made a big mistake again, he was afraid that Qin would be in turmoil.

After thinking about it, the Marquis of Shu stood up and stood in front of Ying Zheng without hesitation.
