Chapter 102 Ying Zheng: What? Was it Zhao Feng who saved the Queen Mother?

"This Zhao Ji is really hopelessly insane. She is afraid of me every time she looks at me. It makes me seem like I want to kill her."

Seeing Zhao Ji's performance, and it was the second time, Zhao Feng was naturally even more confused.

but.

Considering that Zhao Ji once witnessed her two sons being thrown to death, it is not surprising that she went crazy.

Naturally, Zhao Feng just complained a few words in his heart.

After Zhao Ji was arranged on the Yongcheng Imperial Guard ship, Tu Sui breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Zhao Ji is still alive, she can go back to deliver the work this time.

"General Zhao."

"Thank you for your kindness."

"I will always remember Tu Sui in my heart."

Tu Sui bowed to Zhao Feng again.

"Your name is Tu Sui?" Zhao Feng smiled slightly, but he was thinking in his heart.

This name also seems to be a famous figure in history.

But at this moment, Zhao Feng really couldn't remember.

After all, there are so many famous generals in history, and it is naturally impossible for Zhao Feng to clearly remember the origin of each one.

"yes."

Tu Sui replied immediately.

He was very respectful to Zhao Feng and did not dare to be rude at all.

Obviously he was also grateful to Zhao Feng. If it weren't for Zhao Feng, Queen Mother Huayang didn't know if she could have protected his life.

"good."

"I will remember it."

"The queen mother is frightened. The king must be chasing her closely. You'd better go back and recover first." Zhao Feng said with a smile.

"Thank you, General Zhao, for your understanding."

"I will retire at the end."

Tu Sui nodded and gave Zhao Feng a grateful look one last time before turning around and boarding his ship.

"Turn around and return."

Tu Sui ordered loudly.

Under his command.

Dozens of ships turned around and set sail back.

Watching the departing ship.

Zhao Feng's thoughtful expression gradually relaxed.

"Tu Sui."

"It turned out to be him."

"Historically, Qin Shihuang was the first to send him to attack Baiyue, and he successfully defeated Baiyue, but he was eventually ambushed by Baiyue people and died of poisoning."

"After that, Zhao Tuo came to take over the land of Baiyue."

now.

Zhao Feng also thought about who Tu Sui was.

"It's not bad to have a good relationship with Tu Sui." Zhao Feng smiled slightly.

During the Qin period.

Many generals of Great Qin have been overshadowed by Wang Jian, but there is no doubt that those who can make a mark in history are definitely not simple people.

"What a pity."

"I am not a general stationed in Qin's territory, otherwise I really could have gone to Xianyang to see Qin Shihuang's style."

Looking at Tu Sui's ship getting further and further away, Zhao Feng felt a little disappointed in his heart.

Zhao Feng was also very curious about the legendary Emperor Qin Shihuang.

What does this being who is honored by later generations as the Emperor of Eternity, the first emperor, and the Ancestral Dragon look like? How domineering is it?

Zhao Feng is really curious.

only.

He was ordered to guard Weicheng and was not allowed to leave without the order of the superior general. If he left without authorization, it would be a crime of treason.

This is also a restriction on generals.

If the generals guarding one side wander around, there will be disaster.

"My lord."

"These Wei troops were quite sensible and retreated directly."

Zhang Ming looked at where Wei Jing was and said with a smile.

Zhao Feng turned his head and took a look.

The originally thousands of Wei troops now retreated like the tide.

"The Wei State is no longer the Wei State it once was, and they don't dare to fight against our Great Qin."

"Han is dead."

"The country of Wei is what we are most afraid of now. They are afraid that it will give me a reason for Qin to send troops. Once they dare to take action against us and rob Guo Kai, this will be a reason for Qin to send troops."

"This general Wei who leads the army cannot bear such a responsibility." Zhao Feng smiled lightly.

Zhao Feng naturally understood what he was thinking about these retreating Wei troops.

"My lord."

"Should we continue to Hidden Island, or go back?" Han Xi asked respectfully.

"Of course we're going to Hidden Island. There are some disloyal people here, so we'll naturally have to deal with them." Zhao Feng sneered.

Han Xi once again recruited so many people, and some of them were good and bad, and many of them were outside the bounds of loyalty, which Zhao Feng regarded as the most important thing. Naturally, these people had to be dealt with to scare the monkeys.

Yan Ting!

There can be some who are not talented enough, but there will never be anyone who is not loyal to Zhao Feng.

This is Zhao Feng's taboo.

…

Weidu, Daliang!

Xinlingjun Mansion.

"Report to Lord Xinling."

"General Cao, who is guarding the border, has replied. He arrived a step late and failed to reach Prime Minister Zhao." A subordinate officer said respectfully to an old but majestic man.

Lord Xinling!

Later generations called him one of the four princes of the Warring States Period, Wei Wuji.

He is also a person with extremely high prestige in today's world, and he is also known as the person who established the country in today's Wei State.

As a member of the royal family of the Wei Kingdom and the uncle of the current King of Wei, he had high prestige and was also deeply trusted by the King of Wei.

Hear the reports from subordinates.

A look of disappointment flashed across Wei Wuji's face.

He naturally knew about Zhao's robbery of the Queen Mother of Qin, and Guo Kai had sent people to talk to him secretly beforehand, and got his consent to kidnap the Queen Mother of Qin, go down the Weishui River, enter the Wei State, and then return to Zhao State.

Now Qin is extremely powerful, and all the countries in the world are afraid of it.

As for the Wei State, which is adjacent to the Qin State, after seeing the fall of South Korea, it naturally felt a feeling of death and coldness.

Compared with Zhao State, Wei State's national power is completely inferior.

Compared with Qin, it is even worse.

"After all, it is God who fails to fulfill his wishes."

"If the Queen Mother of Qin can be held hostage, King Qin will definitely not dare to mess around."

"Although using your mother to force someone is destructive, it is still a means to deal with Qin."

"It's a pity that it failed after all." Wei Wuji sighed.

"Maybe Mr. Xinling thinks too much."

"Qin's reason for launching troops against Han was that Han was provocative on the border. He even advocated attacking Qin the next day, and then he was destroyed by Qin."

"We, the Wei Dynasty, have been on good terms with Qin these years. They have no reason to use troops against our Wei Dynasty. Once they do so, all countries will not tolerate it." The subordinate officer on the side said in a self-satisfied voice.

Hear this.

Wei Wuji's eyes flashed with disappointment: "I don't know how many people in the court think like you."

"The so-called division with a reputation may be useful at critical moments, but when a certain country is so powerful that it is not afraid of other countries, the so-called division with a reputation is useless. Qin is already a behemoth to our great Wei Dynasty."

"If Qin attacks me, the Wei Dynasty, I, the Wei Dynasty, will definitely not be my opponent."

"At the end of the day."

"It is best not to give Qin a pretext, so that he can get help from other countries. But if you give Qin a pretext, other countries will have no reason to send troops to reinforce."

"I regret it."

"When the King of Han asked for help, he definitely should not have waited for Zhao to respond. Instead, he should have sent troops to help Han. This might give Han Cun one more chance to fight against Qin."

Speaking of which.

The regret in Wei Wuji's eyes was hard to describe.

Now he is old.

Not much left to live on.

He also just wanted to protect Wei State from being destroyed by Qin State during his lifetime.

The stronger Qin's power, the more worried he became.

In the past, there were still alliances to attack Qin, but now they are afraid of Qin's power and dare not join forces.

Co-operation has become a thing of the past.

Offense and defense have changed.

After listening to Wei Wuji's words, the subordinates around him became silent.

"What's the situation with Prime Minister Zhao now?" Wei Wuji asked.

"Report to your Majesty."

"General Cao, who was stationed on the Wei River, said that they were too far apart and there were ships covering them. He didn't see clearly. He didn't know whether Prime Minister Zhao was captured or killed and escaped alive." The subordinate immediately replied.

"It would be a good thing if Prime Minister Zhao could die." Wei Wuji sneered.

Hear this.

The subordinates around me were very puzzled: "Hasn't your Majesty been chatting happily with Prime Minister Zhao? And he seems to have great respect for Your Majesty. If he dies, this will not be a good thing for me, the Great Wei?"

"Guo Kai, he is just a villain who is greedy for money and interests."

"The reason why we are friends with him is because he is deeply favored by King Zhao, but it is undeniable that he is a slanderer, and all he cares about is wealth and profit. If he dies, the Zhao court will return to Lian Po and Zhao Yi Talking is a good thing for me, the Great Wei," Wei Wuji said solemnly.

Wei Wuji still trusted this subordinate very much, so he told the truth.

I have to say.

Wei Wuji is worthy of being called one of the Four Young Masters of the Warring States Period, and his vision is indeed very unique.

Guo Kai is indeed a villain.

"Your Majesty's words make sense." His subordinates agreed.

"Have you found out the situation of Qin's guarding Weicheng?" Wei Wuji asked when his voice came back.

The subordinate immediately took out a bamboo slip and handed it to Wei Wuji respectfully: "This is the Weicheng military report. Please take a look at it."

Wei Wuji took it and opened it to take a look.

"Zhao Feng."

"He is actually the one guarding Weicheng."

"It seems that Wang Jian is really wary of Wei." Wei Wuji said with a frown.

"Your Majesty."

"Isn't it just that Zhao Feng has better luck? How could he get so much attention from your Majesty?" the subordinate asked extremely puzzled.

"Wei Bo, do you know why the late king placed you beside me in the first place?" Wei Wuji turned to this subordinate and said.

"I don't know," Wei Bo replied respectfully.

"In terms of identity, you are also from the royal family of the Wei Dynasty. You are the brother of the king and my nephew."

"I am already old and don't have many years left to live." Wei Wuji sighed.

Hear this.

Wei Bo immediately shook his head and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty is in your prime, so you can't talk nonsense."

"The king has only been on the throne for three years, and he relies on me for everything. The late king kept you by my side when you were a teenager, in order to train you to become the king's right-hand man, so that you can also control me in the future. Wei State."

"The world is no longer what it once was."

"Qin is strong and tyrannical, while other countries are weak."

"The game of cooperation between the countries has been broken."

"You have been with me for many years, so you should know that you should never take things at face value."

"Just like this Zhao Feng."

"You should know his situation when you are with me."

"Tell me what kind of person Zhao Feng is?" Wei Wuji looked at Wei Bo and asked.

"According to intelligence, this Zhao Feng was originally a member of Qin's logistics army. By chance, he killed Bao Yuan's son and was promoted to the throne."

"Then by chance, or luck, I killed General Baoyuan, and then I was able to transfer to Qin's main battle camp."

"At the end of the day."

"This man is very lucky."

"If he hadn't met Bao Yuan and his son, he might still be an ordinary soldier in the logistics department." Wei Bo still had a somewhat disdainful tone.

Hearing this.

Wei Wuji shook his head with disappointment: "In your eyes, you may only see this boy's luck."

"Indeed, this boy is very lucky."

"If it weren't for Bao Yuan and his son, he might still be a logistics soldier of Qin and would not be able to make a fortune."

"But you didn't see this boy's ability at all."

"Bao Yuan led nearly 8,000 elite troops under his command to hide in Yangcheng, and launched a surprise attack under the cover of night, intending to cut off Qin's grain road and exchange Han's life."

"Although this strategy is dangerous, it is a strategy that must be done. As long as it succeeds, it can allow Han to survive longer."

"Faced with no more than 10,000 troops stationed outside the city, The elite troops led by Bao Yuan were enough to slaughter the unarmored logistics troops, but what was the result of the pursuit? Thousands of logistics troops were united by Zhao Feng alone, and fought bloody battles with the elite Han troops under Bao Yuan, and even fought to the death, which made Bao Yuan's strategy fail, and Bao Yuan died in the hands of Zhao Feng. "

"After that."

"This kid has changed his previous silence, and has broken several cities of Han, broken the capital of Han, and captured the King of Han."

"This is not something that can be done by simple luck."

"If you have such luck, can you do it?" Wei Wuji said to his nephew.

Hearing this.

Wei Bo couldn't help but be silent, and seemed to be thinking.

After a while.

Wei Bo shook his head: "I can't do it."

Hearing Wei Bo's words.

Wei Wuji's eyes were slightly relieved: "It's good that you can understand! This boy is brave, good at commanding troops, and lucky as you said, but this is also the last one."

"What a pity."

"If this person was born in my Great Wei, it would be great. If he was from my Great Wei, I would like to accept him as my disciple, and my Great Wei would have successors to protect it for me."

"Why is Qin so blessed!"

Wei Wuji said with reluctance.

Listening to his uncle who believed in the god of war praising a foreigner so much, Wei Bo was a little unwilling. He had studied with his uncle for many years and never received a word of praise, but he praised a foreigner so much and promised to inherit his mantle.

If this spread out, it would definitely cause a shock to the entire Great Wei court.

"Your Majesty."

"Is he really worthy of your attention?" Wei Bo said unwillingly.

Wei Wuji smiled: "If he is from my Great Wei, even if he is willing to serve my Great Wei, it is naturally worth it, but unfortunately he is from Qin!"

"Your Majesty."

"One day, if I fight against Zhao Feng, I will definitely kill him."

"I will prove that he is not as good as me." Wei Bo said with full fighting spirit.

Hearing this.

Wei Wuji did not get angry, but smiled and said: "Then I look forward to that day."

It is worth it to use Zhao Feng to motivate his nephew to be more enterprising.

"I will definitely do it." Wei Bo's heart was full of fighting spirit. Although he had never met Zhao Feng, his heart was full of murderous intent against Zhao Feng at this moment.

"If Bo'er can really kill Zhao Feng in front of the battle, perhaps I will really have a successor who can protect the Great Wei for me." Wei Wuji said in his heart.

He is old.

He will not live for many years.

Wei Wuji wanted to cultivate a successor to protect the country, but unfortunately he couldn't.

His nephew, after all, didn't have that ability!

...

In Xianyang, in the court hall!

Ying Zheng's face was gloomy, and the whole court hall was shrouded in a terrifying rage.

All the court officials dared not speak in this rage.

"How long has it been?"

"Nearly half a month, thousands of miles of pursuit."

"The queen mother has not been brought back yet."

"I am very disappointed in you."

Ying Zheng shouted coldly.

All the ministers in the court frowned and dared not speak.

"Wei Liao."

"Li Si."

"Tell me, when can the queen mother be brought back?"

"Do you know what kind of checks and balances the queen mother will have on Daqin after falling into another country?" Ying Zheng shouted angrily.

In this rage.

Wei Liao and Li Si, who were once trusted, also didn't know how to respond.

At this moment.

Zhao Ji has not been found in half a month.

Ying Zheng was already upset at this moment.

Not only because Zhao Ji was his biological mother, but also because Zhao Ji was the queen mother of the Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng didn't dare to think about the consequences of falling into another country, it was too serious!

"Your Majesty, calm down."

"The kidnapping of the queen mother must have been planned for a long time."

"Although Yongcheng was once the capital of our Qin Dynasty, its defense was not as strict as Xianyang. Moreover, there were foreign countries in the palace of Yongcheng. The kidnapping of the queen mother was really hard to prevent."

"From the current situation."

"The people who planned this time had some means, divided into five routes, four routes attracted our Qin Dynasty's troops, and one route was hidden and escaped from the Wei River."

"Now what the king can do, what the ministers can do is to believe in the chasing warriors, they will never let the queen mother of the Qin Dynasty leave the country, and will not let the queen mother become a bargaining chip for other countries to threaten our Qin Dynasty."

At this time!

Han Fei, who was already wearing the official uniform of the Qin Dynasty, stood up and spoke loudly.

Hearing Han Fei's words.

Ying Zheng, who was furious, also restrained his anger a little.

Ying Zheng still attached great importance to this famous minister who had just joined the Qin Dynasty.

"Gu, I would rather the Queen Mother die for the country than affect the destiny of the Qin Dynasty." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words fell.

Everyone understood the coldness contained in Ying Zheng's words.

For the king.

It would be better for Zhao Ji to die than fall into another country.

Perhaps this is the ruthlessness of the emperor.

That's when.

"Report!"

"Tu Sui, the commander of the Yongcheng Imperial Guard, asks for an audience."

Ren Xiao ran into the hall with an excited face and reported.

Ying Zheng's expression changed and he immediately shouted: "Xuan!"

Zhao Gao immediately shouted to the outside of the hall: "Your Majesty has an edict, and Tu Sui, the commander of the imperial guard of Xuanyong City, will come to see you."

echoed.

Tu Sui, who had taken off his armor and was wearing a military uniform, ran quickly towards the hall. When he entered the hall, even though he had a title, he did not hesitate at this moment and knelt directly in the hall.

All the ministers' eyes fell on Tu Sui.

"Tell me."

"Did the Queen Mother bring it back?" Ying Zheng stared at Tu Sui and asked coldly.

Although Ying Zheng didn't show too much, his obvious coldness and murderous intention could not be concealed.

If you really didn't bring it back.

Then Tu Sui's life would come to an end. At this point, it was no longer the Queen Mother Huayang who could protect Tu Sui.

"The Queen Mother has been brought back successfully." Tu Sui raised his head and said with a look of fear.

Hear this.

Ying Zheng, who was originally full of murderous intent, now calmed down on his face, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Tu Sui, do you know your guilt?"

Ying Zheng shouted coldly.

Tu Sui knelt on the ground and replied in fear: "I know the crime."

"I was ordered to guard the Yongcheng Palace, but the Queen Mother was robbed by thieves."

"This is a disadvantage for my guard. Please punish me severely, Your Majesty."

for this crime.

Naturally, Tu Sui would not deny it, because there was no denying that even though there were spies from other countries inside the Yongcheng Palace, he was responsible for the security of the Yongcheng Palace, and he had unshirkable responsibilities as the commander.

"Just plead guilty."

Ying Zheng said coldly.

At this time!

A minister surnamed Mi stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, this time the Queen Mother was robbed, Commander Tu was indeed responsible for dereliction of duty, but after all, Commander Tu brought the Queen Mother back, which can be regarded as a loss of merit. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Punishment.”

"My son seconded the proposal."

"Commander Tu is also committing meritorious deeds this time. Father, please give him a light punishment." Fusu also stood up immediately.

Behind Fusu, his mother's surname is Mi, and the Queen Mother Huayang is also surnamed Mi.

Tu Sui had been guarding Yongcheng in these years, and he had naturally curried favor with the Queen Mother Huayang. Fusu's intercession for him this time was obviously authorized by the Queen Mother Huayang.

But this time!

Something unexpected happened to Fusu and Minister Mi.

Li Si unexpectedly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Commander Tu has indeed neglected his duties and can be punished by demotion of salary and rank. However, the Queen Mother did not lose this time. On the contrary, it also served as a warning to our Da Qin. Through this matter, we learned about the palace of Da Qin." There are still traitors from other countries.”

"Please, Your Majesty, punish Commander Tu lightly."

After Li Si spoke.

The upstarts belonging to Li Si's lineage in the court also spoke one after another: "I second my opinion."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Fusu is trying to win over Tu Sui, and Li Si will naturally not sit idly by. This kind of goodwill can be easily given away.

Again.

Li Si also knew Ying Zheng very well.

Although Tu Sui was guarding in Yongcheng City, he was also very important there. Being able to be made the commander by Ying Zheng's decree was also a sign of Tu Sui's high regard.

This time the Queen Mother finally returned, and it was just a small punishment or a big warning. Regardless of whether she begged for mercy or not, the result would not be too different.

Seeing so many people in the court pleading for mercy for Tu Sui.

Ying Zheng nodded: "What you said makes sense."

"It is true that Tu Sui failed in his duties this time, but he tried his best to make up for it later and recovered the Queen Mother without making a big mistake."

"Gu, you can forgive the sin of slaughtering Sui."

Hear this.

The ministers who interceded for Tu Sui all echoed: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is wise."

But this time.

But Tu Sui spoke again: "Your Majesty, I did not intercept the Queen Mother. There was someone else who saved the Queen Mother. I only brought the Queen Mother back."

"kindness?"

Ying Zheng frowned, slightly surprised: "Is there someone else?"

"This time, the thieves created a suspicious formation and asked the officials to search to no avail. Later it was discovered that the thieves came down from the Wei River and were preparing to enter the Wei Kingdom."

"I led my imperial guards to pursue them, but they couldn't catch up. Seeing that the thieves were about to enter the Wei Kingdom, I might also lose the Queen Mother..."

Speaking of which.

A look of fear flashed through Tu Sui's eyes, and his words paused.

But the courtiers were shocked by Tu Sui's pause.

"Commander Tu, who saved the Queen Mother?" a minister asked in surprise.

"It's General Zhao Feng who guards Weicheng." Tu Sui said loudly.

After all.

In fact, Tu Sui may be able to take the credit for himself. As long as he can win over the warriors under his command, even if it is time to investigate, Zhao Feng will only have his personal guards around him, so no one will know.

But Tu Sui is not such a villain.

He was able to bring Zhao Ji back this time because he accepted Zhao Feng's love. This was a life-saving grace for him and a life-saving grace for his many brothers in the Yongcheng Imperial Guard.

If he devours all these achievements, then he is so inhumane.

As soon as Zhao Feng's name fell, everyone in the court looked shocked.

Everyone looked surprised.

This also applies to Ying Zheng who is on the throne.

"How can this be related to Zhao Feng?" Wang Jian couldn't help but ask.

Now he is still holding back and not telling Zhao Feng about his daughter's pregnancy. After all, Wang Jian still wants to have some attitude toward Zhao Feng.

"Zhao Feng?"

Han Fei's eyes lit up.

Although he only got along with Zhao Feng for a few days, Han Fei was deeply impressed by Zhao Feng's eclectic behavior and extraordinary conversation, which left Han Fei speechless for several days.

He and Zhao Feng haven't seen each other for several months.

Talk about it.

Han Fei really missed Zhao Feng, who had been quarreling with him for a few days.

If Zhao Feng knew.

He will inevitably retaliate: "You are such a cheap person. You don't want to say nice things, but you insist on scolding me."

"Commander Tu, did you send someone to tell General Zhao Feng in advance, so that Zhao Feng successfully rescued the Queen Mother?"

Chun Yuyue, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.

And hear his words.

Han Fei couldn't help but frown, but he just glanced at it and didn't speak.

Because he wasn't sure this time either.

If Tu Sui really followed Chun Yuyue's words, Tu Sui really sent Zhao Feng to intercept the thief in advance, thereby saving the Queen Mother.

The key to that achievement still lies with Tu Sui. After all, Zhao Feng would not have intercepted it without Tu Sui's notification.

Obviously.

This was also done deliberately by Chun Yuyue.

"If Tu Sui is a smart man, he will definitely appreciate this."

"Zhao Feng."

"I sent Meng Jia to persuade him to cancel his marriage to the Wang family, but he actually beat Meng Jia like that."

"Zhao Feng must not get this credit." Chunyu Yue thought with an extremely cold heart.

When the eldest disciple he sent returned to Yingchuan, the injuries he sustained were undoubtedly a slap in the face to Chun Yuyue, and even more to the eldest son Fusu.

Although Fusu didn't know about this matter, Chunyu Yue already consciously represented Fusu. He was the eldest son's mentor and was appointed by the current king.

Zhao Feng avenged Meng Jia.

Chunyu Yue naturally remembered it.

Naturally, this time it was a stumbling block.

only.

Tu Sui had no intention of swallowing up this credit, and he did not hear the hidden meaning of Chun Yuyue's deliberate intention.

"Speak of it."

"In addition to informing the imperial guards under my command and the four county soldiers sent by the king to encircle and suppress the thieves, I have not informed anyone else about this matter, let alone General Zhao Feng, who is thousands of miles away in Yingchuan."

"I didn't know General Zhao Feng before."

"General Zhao successfully intercepted the thief and rescued the Queen Mother this time. It was a complete accident."

Tu Sui said truthfully.

…
