Zhang Liang went to Qin as an envoy with a difficult mission. As soon as he arrived in Qin, before he could meet the King of Qin, the Qin army invaded South Korea.
As a result, Zhang Liang, as the envoy of Han, was placed under house arrest in the posthouse, and was unable to meet the King of Qin.
Then the war slowed down a bit, and the official "suddenly" remembered the Korean envoy who was under house arrest in the post house, so he mentioned the matter to the King of Qin.
Ying Zheng briefly recalled who Zhang Liang was as the Han envoy. He was the grandson of Han Xiang Kaichu. He heard that he had a close relationship with Han Fei, so he was asked to bring back the news of Han Fei's entry into Qin.
So before the Celestial Meeting, someone was sent to inform Zhang Liang to tidy up his attire, and someone would come to take him to the palace the next day.
Zhang Liang stood respectfully outside the palace, waiting to be announced.
After receiving the news that he could enter, Zhang Liang adjusted the green robe he was wearing, and then walked step by step on the stairs leading to the palace under the gaze of the Qin army.
Any dynasty or state has virtues given by God. This virtue is represented by the five elements, which are the five virtues of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The political characteristics of this country and dynasty must be consistent with its virtues.
, the color it advocates is the national color, so that the country can run smoothly and stably under the blessing of God.
In order to express its unique virtues, South Korea introduced the virtues of Mude, and its flags and costumes are all green.
It's just that in this world, it seems that whether the king of Han or the princes and nobles wear purple, it is a noble color and is outlined with gold.
Zhang Liang's speed was neither too fast nor too slow, and every step he took seemed so calm, as if he didn't come from a weak South Korea that was being attacked by Qin.
After he had completely passed by, a trace of contempt appeared on the face of the masked Qin army guard Xia Gujing Wubo.
If a mere envoy from a weak country really takes himself seriously, he will be defeated by the cavalry of Great Qin sooner or later.
The officials of the Qin State in the palace waited for a while, and finally saw the Han envoy Zhang Liang passing in front of them with steady steps.
Even the ministers of Qin who were full of contempt for South Korea had to secretly admire the calm and calm Zhang Liang: "He is as gentle as jade, a gentleman."
Zhang Liang, who walked up to Ying Zheng, shook his green robe and bowed formally.
"Zhang Liang, the Korean envoy, pays homage to the King of Qin."
Ying Zheng raised his hand to signal Zhang Liang to take a seat, and at the same time gave Lu Buwei a look.
(Note: Before the Qin Dynasty and even before the Song Dynasty, the court officials all knelt down, but in the play, at least in Korea, the court officials stood up. Here it is slightly modified, Qin kneels down, and then stands)
Lu Buwei glanced sideways at Zhang Liang and said, "The envoy came to Xianyang from Xinzheng. It took more than ten days to travel hundreds of miles. It was really hard work for the envoy."
It seems to be concern, but in fact it is sarcastic: I came all the way to Qin, but Korea was beaten by me. Next time I go back, I don’t know how many days it will take to get out of Qin.
"Foreign officials can't say it's hard work, it's just a matter of being loyal to the emperor and eating the emperor's salary." Zhang Liang bowed to Lu Buwei and replied calmly.
"Then when the envoy came to my country of Qin, what were the loyalties of the King of Han?"
Zhang Liang looked at Lu Buwei. He heard the sharpness in Lu Buwei's words, but he did not feel angry.
Although he was under house arrest in the post house for many days, it did not mean that he could not inquire about anything.
There were usually a lot of people coming to eat in the posthouse, especially those who couldn't control their voices after drinking too much. He learned that South Korea was now in an existential crisis.
Then he looked at the King of Qin Ying Zheng who was sitting there, and saw that he was just watching quietly, not dissatisfied with Lu Buwei's unauthorized speech, and seemed to just not want to speak.
It can be seen that King Qin does not seem to have lost control of Lu Buwei.
Zhang Liangzhong understood clearly.
I am afraid that the rumors from the outside world about Lu Buwei's control of the government are all false. They are just to make the six eastern countries lower their vigilance, thinking that there is disharmony between the emperors within the Qin State. At least before Lu Buwei is solved, the Qin army will not make a large-scale march eastward.
What an insidious move.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the seat, looked at the thoughtful Zhang Liang and instantly knew what he was thinking, but he didn't care anymore.
The contradiction between Qin and the king has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the six eastern countries, not to mention that three years ago, this was originally a fact, but now it has changed.
Originally, this attack on South Korea was used to test the reactions of the six countries.
Ying Zheng wanted to know how the six eastern nations would react if Qin showed its intention to destroy the country.
But it's a pity because of Shuli's operation.
There was civil strife in the Chu State, and the King of Chu and the three clans of Qu Jingzhao became anxious.
The King of Chu felt that you three clans were just trying to gain more fiefdoms and benefits in the name of "true blood", which was a grand statement.
In this way, let's fight for a while, and then I will give you some benefits, and you can prove to others that I, Xiong Han, am the orthodox King of Chu.
The Qu Jingzhao clan initially felt that any cat or dog could be king, and that their orthodox descendants were the true orthodox kings of Chu, and they were the only ones worthy of being kings.
However, compared to the brave and capable [Xiang clan], the pampered Qu Jingzhao clan army suffered repeated defeats.
This made Qu Jingzhao's family feel very humiliated.
So one night, I led a group of people and wanted to make a sneak attack. Unexpectedly, the noise on the road was too loud, which exposed my whereabouts, and I was beaten to death again.
Even the leader of the army ran too fast when escaping because it was too dark, and his horse hit a tree. In addition, the armor he wore was too heavy and had too much inertia. He was hit by the tree and killed.
The problem is that the leader of the army, Shi Qu, whose mother came from the Jing family, grew up in the maternal grandmother's house of the Zhao family, and was pampered since childhood.
It belongs to three buffs stacked up.
As a result, a person with this status died in the civil war with the King of Chu, and Qu Jingzhao's family suddenly became angry.
When the King of Chu saw it, he was like, wow, it was just a little fuss at first, but now it’s serious, right?
Then do it!
Who is afraid of whom?
Therefore, Chu State had no time to care about the war between Qin and Han, unless Qin State attacked Chu State, giving Chu State a way to release the conflict.
As for the State of Wei, the State of Wei is still on the sidelines, and now that the war has slowed down, the State of Wei is no longer in a hurry.
What's more, we just had a fight with Zhao Guo not long ago. If we send troops to help Han again, we will probably be stabbed in the back by Zhao Guo again.
But now Zhao Guo's meaning is the most unclear.
Others, Yan State, wanted to help but could not, while Qi State was busy making money with the [Business Alliance].
Since King Zhao claimed to be ill in the State of Zhao, he had been living deep in the palace and almost no ministers in the court were seen.
In normal times, Chang's son, the current Crown Prince Qian, was in charge of the government, and Chang's descendants conveyed King Zhao's will.
On another note, Guo Kai, who originally held the important position of internal history, successfully attracted the attention of Prince Qian with the various rare toys provided by the [Business Alliance], and was named [Jianxin Lord].
The State of Zhao itself was too busy to deal with chaos, and it was even more impossible to "attack Qin and save Han".
Therefore, Ying Zheng's plan to test the Six Nations was declared bankrupt before it even started, and it was more or less because of Shu Li.
So for a while, Ying Zheng was a little bit dumbfounded.
