Chapter 60 Besieging the Palace [Second update, please read and collect]

The rage in Shang Yang's heart was burning, almost burning everything around him.

Since the eighteenth year of Duke Xiao's war, although Wei, Han, Zhao and other countries were still wary of, or even afraid of, Qin, they did not dare to provoke another war in the next five or six years.

But this time when Duke Xiao of Qin passed away, they immediately launched a war. How could this make Shang Yang not angry?

He felt that his life was slowly passing by. Shang Yang did not want to sit still and wait for death, let alone slowly wait for his death in the rear. He wanted to find a way to die vigorously for himself.

And this time war appeared.

Shang Yang felt that this was a reminder from God or the recently deceased Duke Xiao of Qin, asking him to take advantage of this war and leave with Duke Xiao.

This is not a difficult choice for Shang Yang.

After all, Shang Yang's old wife has long since left, and the entire Prime Minister's Mansion is empty except for a few attendants.

Sitting high on the stage, Ying Si looked at Shang Yang's almost blazing eyes and said softly: "Shang Jun, we cannot do without you at this time. Why do you have to go to the front line to fight?"

"How about staying in Xianyang City and sitting in the rear for me?"

Shang Yang shook his head slightly, with a firm look on his face: "Your Majesty, the reform of the new law has been going on for more than ten years, and all the contents have been imprinted in the bones of the Qin people."

"They won't forget."

"And the old minister has nothing to promote reforms, so what's the use of staying behind the capital?"

His eyes looked at Ying Si: "And now that Chen Xiang is still here, even if the old minister leaves, it will not have any impact, so I still ask your Majesty to fulfill my wish."

Looking into Shang Yang's eyes and feeling Shang Yang's firm will, Ying Si glanced at Chen Ye helplessly. Chen Ye nodded slightly at this time. He knew Shang Yang's friendship for Qin Xiaogong. At this time, Shang Yang was in a state of passion. Sometimes, there is no way to stop it.

He just took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, since Prime Minister Shang has this ambition, why not support him?"

"It's just that Mr. Shang is old after all. Please ask your Majesty to choose an imperial physician to accompany you."

Ying Si looked at Shang Yang and whispered: "I wonder what Prime Minister Shang thinks of this matter? If you can accept it, then I will agree to it."

For Ying Si, Shang Yang is actually not as close as Chen Ye. What's more, it is also a good thing for Ying Si to be able to get rid of this minister who cares about life.

He knows his teacher's character.

As long as he can personally govern, his teacher will immediately let go of power, and even celebrate and drink happily on the day he lets go.

Shang Yang didn't hesitate at all: "I obey the order!"

Ying Si breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Shang Yang and many ministers and conveyed his will.

"Everyone, Qin people are never afraid of war. Since they want to fight, then let's fight!"

"Pass on my orders, with Lord Shang as the commander-in-chief, and an army of [-], to attack the Allied Forces of the Five Nations!"

The ministers spoke one after another with determination on their faces: "I obey the order!"

The apse of Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Si sat there. At this time, he already had the majesty of King Qin and looked like an adult. Only the sparse beard on his cheeks symbolized his age.

"Teacher, do you think we will win this war?"

Chen Ye didn't think about this issue at all. He just said in surprise: "Ah? Is this war still going to be lost?"

"Are you underestimating the Qin people's fighting power?"

He chuckled: "There is only one question that your Majesty has to consider. After the sword of the Qin people has won victory for you, what should you exchange for this victory that originally belonged to you." Ying Si shook his head and chuckled: "What the teacher said is true, but I am a little worried after all."

"After all, this is the first battle since I ascended the throne."

Chen Ye didn't say anything, but after a few words of comfort to Ying Si, he changed the topic to another place: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about the war with the five-nation allied forces. Now there is another person in the country. I'm afraid I need to pay attention to it. ”

Ying Si blinked his eyes with a look of understanding on his face: "Is the teacher talking about my uncle?"

Chen Ye shrugged his shoulders very relaxedly: "Yes."

"When the late king was still alive, he investigated this man. When the late king was [-] years old, the late king found out that he had colluded with the King of Wei."

"Can he let go of such a good opportunity this time?"

Ying Si looked at the chess pieces in his hands and kept moving them sideways.

After a moment, he smiled: "What choice do you think he will make?"

Chen Ye chuckled: "I'm afraid it's the simplest and crudest choice, it looks the smartest, but it's actually the stupidest choice."

He raised his head, and at this moment Ying Si also raised his head. The two looked at each other and said two words in unison: "Besiege the palace!"

Then both of them were startled, and then burst into laughter.

Ying Si looked at Chen Ye: "Teacher, it seems that the two of us want to go together."

He sneered: "Since my father's death, there have always been some commotions in the palace, and the clans can't sit still."

"He often told me, both openly and secretly, that I should trust the clan, not my teachers and business ministers."

Ying Si said disdainfully: "Those eyes filled with desire make me feel dirty just looking at them!"

"I haven't paid any attention to them, but I'm afraid they can't help it."

"Perhaps he and Gongzi Qian will launch a palace siege this time? After all, Gongzi Qian has a big feud with his teacher and Prime Minister Shang. If he becomes the king of Qin, I am afraid that not even one of the new laws will survive, and so will the teacher and Prime Minister Shang. Absolutely nothing will end well.”

Chen Ye did not deny this: "Your Majesty is right."

"But will your Majesty give them this opportunity?"

Others don't know about Ying Si. Doesn't Chen Ye, a teacher, not know about it?

His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, had already mastered part of the military power of the palace guard from Qin Xiaogong in the past few years. Now that he has ascended the throne, he has firmly held those powers in his hands.

It can be said that if Ying Si does not want the news in the palace to spread, then there will be no news outside the palace.

What Ying Si wants to do now is just "fishing".

He wanted to bring out the hidden danger and then kill it.

Among them was Gongzi Qian.

Prince Qian's Mansion

Everyone is already dressed in armor and ready. Young Master Qian stands at the front with a cold voice: "This time, there is no retreat!"

"I have already contacted the imperial guards in the palace, and the clan supports me."

"Kill the foolish king and depose the new law!"

He raised the sword in his hand and boldly led his army to attack on this night!
