Thousand-year-old family: its rise began with Shang Yang’s reforms

Chapter 81 Chen is absolutely uncompromising! [Second update, please collect and read]

Cars and horses were still driving slowly, and there were displaced people everywhere on the roadside. Some people were able to wear clothes that covered their bodies, while others were half-clothed.

Mud flew from the ground.

Each person is like a walking zombie, not knowing where they are going or where they came from.

The surrounding guards had sharp eyes and weapons in their hands. These were soldiers selected from the old Qin army and the guards of the Qin monarch, and were now used as Chen Shen's guards.

Chen Shen seemed different from everything around him.

His robes are gorgeous and clean. Although there is no crown on his head, there is a hairpin to tie his hair. The whole person looks modest and gentle.

In this era, no one would mistake a nobleman for an ordinary person.

Because the gap between the two is even greater than the gap between animals and humans.

"Sir, it's already noon, it's time for dinner."

Chen Shen nodded slightly: "Okay, let everyone rest."

In the eighth year of King Huiwen, Xia.

King Ba and King Shu entered Xianyang. This news shocked everyone but at the same time they felt very normal.

The war between Bashu and Rongdi lasted for nearly six years. During these seven years, Bashu's annual consumption was an astronomical figure. At the beginning, people even speculated when Bashu would be completely destroyed by Rongdi.

And even with the support of Qin, Bashu could not persist any longer.

What surprised people was that Bashu persisted for so long. This is indeed an incredible thing.

Zhangtai Palace

Ying Si sat high on the high platform, with a look of astonishment on his face: "King Ba, King Shu, what do you mean?"

He even stood up and said, "Isn't this going to make people unkind and unjust?"

King Ba and King Shu were now wearing gorgeous robes. These were sacrificial robes and could only be worn during the most solemn times.

The two men held the seals of the monarchs of the two countries in their hands, looking sad.

King Ba took a step forward with a respectful expression: "Mr. Ying!"

Zhou's conferment of titles to Qin had already reached the "Gong". At this time, King Ba had no problem calling Ying Si "Ying Gong".

"The two regions of Bashu and Bashu live near the barbarians and have been invaded by the barbarians for many years."

"Even this time, without the help of Duke Ying and the kindness of Qin's ancestor Mu Gong, Bashu and Shu would have become the sinners of the Central Plains."

"The two of us can't sleep day and night, afraid that we will be unworthy of the trust entrusted to our ancestors, and afraid that we will be unworthy of the oath we made to the emperor to guard our Chinese land."

"The Rong Di from the barbarian land have invaded many times, and Bashu is really unable to compete."

King Ba and King Shu looked at each other, took off the hair crown from their heads, put it together with the seal in their hands, and then took out an edict from their arms.

"Before the two of us came, we had already obtained the emperor's edict."

"I asked you to go to the country and merge the Bashu land into the Qin Kingdom. The Emperor has already promised!"

King Ba and King Shu held the things above their heads: "I hope Duke Ying will promise!"

Ying Si's face was at a loss. He looked at the many ministers around him. The ministers around him also spoke one after another: "Your Majesty! This is a matter of benevolence and righteousness. Please allow your Majesty to agree!"

"Please promise me your Majesty!"

The sound of waves came one after another. Ying Si stood on the high platform feeling bitter and helpless. Finally, he had to say: "Okay, since the emperor has an edict and you two have invited me, how can I not agree to this benevolent thing?"

He let out a long sigh and said: "When you two go to the Qin Dynasty, you must be granted the title. How about I name you "Bajun" and "Shujun"?"

Ba Jun and Shu Jun looked at each other, then knelt down on the ground and performed a great ceremony, which was a sign of respect for the king of Qin.

The self-proclaimed title was changed from Xiao Wang to "Chen." ˆ ˆ ˆ "I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."

At this time, Zhang Yi came out with a serious and respectful expression: "Your Majesty, since Bashu has been incorporated into our country, the affairs of Rong and Di are no longer the affairs of outsiders."

"Our Qin State has strong soldiers and horses. Although benevolent and righteous people do not want to engage in unjust wars, how can the fight against barbarians be regarded as unjust wars?"

"Please send troops to attack Di!"

Ying Si looked around at everyone, and no one present objected, so he immediately said: "Okay!"

"Pass on my orders!"

"Rong Di has committed an unpardonable crime against me, China, many times!"

"Order Sima Cuo and Zhang Yi to lead a hundred thousand troops to conquer the Rong Di! Vow to destroy their clan to declare the power of our great Qin state!"

Sima Cuo and Zhang Yi immediately came out of the queue and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Wei!"

The annexation of Bashu to Qin did not surprise all the countries in the world. On the contrary, it was a bit confusing that Qin actually sent troops to conquer Rongdi after taking Bashu.

Wei State, Daliang.

King Wei raised his eyebrows and looked at the Kanyu map behind him: "Rong Di?"

There was a bit of disdain in the corner of his mouth: "I'm afraid the intention is not to Rong Di, but to Yiqu!"

The King of Wei could see Qin's plan at a glance, and what the King of Wei could see could naturally be seen by the kings of other countries.

But now, is there anything they can do?
  The war between Wei, Zhao and Han has ended for several years, but they are all seriously injured and have no power to stop Qin.

So he could only watch Qin launch a war against Rong and Di, and then take this opportunity to spy on Yiqu.

certainly--

For these countries, this is a small matter.

Because Qin has no plans to go east yet, right?
  Zhangtai Palace

Ying Si stood up suddenly and looked at Chen Ye as if he was crazy: "Teacher, do you want to send Zhan'er into the army?"

"How is this possible!"

"This war against Rong and Di is so dangerous. Zhan'er has not even been crowned, so how can he go to the battlefield?"

Chen Zhan is now fifteen years old, not even a young man.

If you were from a poor family, you might already be the head of the family, but here among the nobility, fifteen years old is already a child.

There was no obvious change in Chen Ye's expression, he just said: "Since he wants to go, just let him go."

"He has been different from Shen'er since he was a child. He wants to compete for credit on horses."

"This war with Rong Di is not that dangerous. After all, the gap between Rong Di and us is still very big."

"If he is not allowed to go and practice now, what will happen in the future? The war with the Central Plains countries in the future will be even more dangerous."

He put down the cup in his hand and looked into the distance: "Parents who love their children have far-reaching plans."

"If he hadn't been so focused on it, how could I have let it go?"

"And now the Qin State has a military merit title system. If he wants to get ahead and doesn't strive for military merit, what else can he do?"

Chen Ye's voice was leisurely: "Not only Zhan'er, but also Shen'er can't avoid it."

His voice became extremely cold at this moment: "Mr. Chen, there will never be a son who lives an ignoble life!"
