Zhao Ji, who was in the main hall of Xianyang Palace, looked at Qin Wangzheng and could not help but recall the scene before she came to Xianyang Palace.
The Ganquan Palace and sleeping palace not long ago.
"This situation is troublesome now. Your Majesty, he always has all kinds of strategies. It is useless to lack soldiers." Zhao Ji knelt down behind the desk, and the bamboo slips in her hands were recording the military information sent back from the front line.
When the military information was obtained in Xianyang Palace, it was also obtained here in Ganquan Palace. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the situation that Xianyang Suo was facing.
"Actually, there is nothing we can do now." Yang Ming said, sitting opposite Zhao Ji.
"Is there any way you can help the king?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Ji subconsciously leaned forward and pressed her bulging chest on the low-height desk of this era. A jade hand had already grasped Yang Ming's palm.
"Right now, Xianyang can still gather a force of soldiers and horses. Although this force of soldiers and horses is unlikely to be able to defeat the enemy army rushing towards Xianyang, it is still better to delay it for a while so that the frontline army has enough time to return reinforcements.
It can be done." Yang Ming's eyes shifted from the scenery on the desk to Zhao Ji's face.
"What other soldiers and horses are there in Xianyang?" Zhao Ji asked. As the Queen Mother, she had to be concerned about the current crisis in Qin. As a mother, she also wanted to help her son.
"Under the Weiwei Mansion, the palace guards, and even the Langguan under the Langzhongling." Yang Mingdao.
"You..." Zhao Ji tightened her grip on Yang Ming's hand, and her slightly long nails almost pierced the skin on the back of Yang Ming's hand. The guards of the palaces under the Weiwei Mansion, including her Ganquan Palace,
, doesn’t that mean Yang Ming is also included?
"Of course the Queen Mother is not afraid, but I am," Yang Ming said.
"Your Majesty?" For a moment, all the ministers in the hall looked at each other, not knowing how to make a decision.
Zhao Ji knew that Yang Ming had always pursued military glory. She knew that Yang Ming was not content to just be a captain of the Ganquan Palace, nor was he willing to be a captain of the guards. Yang Ming had a bigger goal.
As one of the closest people around Yang Ming, Zhao Ji is not only someone who only knows how to get things from Yang Ming, she also puts all her thought into Yang Ming.
"Your Majesty, no, let's leave the other palace guards for now. Xianyang Palace's imperial guards and Lang Guan must not be mobilized. They are the force to protect you, Your Majesty. Please take back the royal order." Xiong Qi said quickly.
"Can you not go?" Zhao Ji hesitated.
How could Zhao Ji be willing to let Yang Ming do such a thing?
"If Xianyang is about to face the enemy directly, can a few hundred guards and officials be enough to protect us? Lord Changping said that is not allowed." King Qin said.
When Zhao Ji struggled out of her memories, Qin Wangzheng had already faced the ministers in the hall and said loudly: "Assemble the imperial guards of the palaces under the Weiwei Mansion, including the imperial guards of Xianyang Palace and the subordinate Lang officers, and come out of Xianyang to stop the attack.
enemy."
Zhao Ji was helpless but also very happy about this, because although Yang Ming was keen on gaining power through military exploits, he never thought of gaining power through Zhao Ji.
"Okay, since you must do this, the Aijia will promise you that the Aijia will personally hand over the troops to your hands." Zhao Ji pressed herself against Yang Ming's shoulder.
The Queen Mother Huayang also looked at Zhao Ji, and she could only suppress what she wanted to say. Of course she had her own candidates, but at the moment, Zhao Ji moved out Yang Ming, the Prime Minister of Weiwei Fuzhong, the one in the Queen Mother Huayang's heart.
Candidates really can only be pressed down.
"You must be like this?" Zhao Ji looked at Yang Ming and tried her best to calm down.
"Yes." Yang Ming nodded.
"Wei Wei Zhongcheng?" Qin Wangzheng looked at Zhao Ji with a somewhat surprised expression.
"Fighting for the Ai family?" Zhao Ji looked at Yang Ming and was speechless for a moment: Is he trying to protect the Ai family?
"Grandmother, Queen Mother?" Qin Wangzheng looked at the visitor unexpectedly.
Is it true? After hearing Yang Ming's words, Zhao Ji's heart suddenly sank.
"Furthermore, I know that the Queen Mother can easily give me a position of power that I need to fight for with my life, but I can't do that either," Yang Ming said.
"Yes, you want to strive for military glory, don't you? But you don't need to do this at all. Whatever you want, the Ai family will give it to you. There is really no need for you to fight with your own life." Zhao Ji said eagerly, not knowing why.
In the blink of an eye, he stood up from behind the desk, with half of his body already over the desk, looking closely at Yang Mingdao.
"I'm doing it for military glory, but I'm also doing it for you, the Queen Mother." Yang Ming held Zhao Ji's shoulders and said, otherwise Yang Ming was really worried that Zhao Ji's posture at this time would make him fall on the desk.
"You?" Zhao Ji looked at Yang Ming with a complicated expression. She is a very emotional woman, how could she listen to such words that are not sweet words but are better than countless sweet words.
"Who can be the commander-in-chief?" Qin Wangzheng asked the last question.
Therefore, if Zhao Ji wants to promote someone to the court, it is not a troublesome thing for Zhao Ji. It can even be said to be a piece of cake.
"If there is danger in Xianyang, how can you, Queen Mother, be safe? I am fighting for you, Queen Mother." Yang Ming said in a low voice.
Changping Lord Xiong Qi subconsciously shrank his shoulders. The Imperial Guards of the various palaces belong to the Weiwei Mansion. Legally speaking, he, as a guard, is of course the most suitable candidate, but Xiong Qi still has a clear understanding of his abilities. Although this era is like
A person of his origin,
He has dabbled in personal martial arts, military arts and strategies, but it is just dabbling. In him, there are more shadows of civil servants, allowing him to lead troops into battle, especially when he is about to face a fierce battle that may be a near-death encounter.
I really don’t have the courage.
"Why? Don't you believe me?" In her excitement, Zhao Ji had long ago abandoned the doubts that had lingered in her heart without a trace. She had doubted countless times that Yang Ming had taken huge risks with him.
Why did she stay together? She even thought of Yang Ming for power, but now, Zhao Ji no longer cares about so much.
In fact, as long as Yang Ming opens his mouth, Zhao Ji is willing to help Yang Ming gain power. Although Zhao Ji is not good at strategizing, she has real regent power in her hands. If she can make good use of it, she will have great influence on the Qin State.
The power and control are definitely better than those of the Prime Minister's Palace.
"Plus the six hundred guards from Huayang Palace." At this time, another woman walked into the hall.
Zhao Ji knew that she was not good at persuading people, let alone Yang Ming. At the moment, all she could do was support Yang Ming.
"With the power of the Queen Mother, it is of course easy to promote someone, but the person promoted by the Queen Mother also represents the face of the Queen Mother. If this person is just a lucky person because of the Queen Mother's favor, how can he convince the public? Others say
When talking about this person, he would be dismissive, and he would also despise the promoted queen mother, saying that the queen mother acted wantonly, did not follow the rules, and trampled on the laws and rules of the Qin Kingdom for generations." Yang Mingdao.
Although some of the Qin ministers still felt that there was something wrong with the matter decided by the King of Qin and the two Queen Mothers at the same time, they could not say anything more at this time. Besides, there was really no better choice at the moment, so they could only watch it now.
It didn't seem like a good choice. Neither the State of Qin nor the King of Qin had any choice.
"Then you..." Zhao Ji was confused.
Yang Ming, Qin Wangzheng knew about it, and had gotten to know him, and he had vaguely heard some bad rumors about him and Zhao Ji, the Queen Mother. But, could he do it?
Thinking of the descriptions of Yang Ming through Zhao Gao, Li Xin and others, Qin Wangzheng fell into deep thought.
"The Prime Minister of Weiwei Mansion can be said to be the leader of the army." Zhao Ji said bluntly.
"What else is the Ai family afraid of?" Zhao Jifeng raised her eyes and said domineeringly.
"You are just the Prime Minister of the Guard House. You have a Guard above you. Besides, although Xianyang is short of major generals, it can still find generals who can lead troops into battle." Zhao Ji said.
After all, no matter how powerful Lu Buwei was, he was just a minister. It was precisely because of this that, in order to aggravate Lu Buwei's words, the pre-Qin king asked the then prince Zheng to worship Lu Buwei as his second father before his death.
Queen Mother Huayang took a deep look at Zhao Ji and then looked away.
Zhao Ji is actually here, and even thought about it with her, but is this really something Zhao Ji can think of and do? If so, she needs to re-examine her daughter-in-law.
In a short period of time, only three thousand guards could be mobilized to fight the tens of thousands of oncoming enemy troops. Although they only wanted to block and delay the attack, not to defeat the enemy, this was still a mission with a near-death experience.
As a woman, she needs to support Yang Ming. As the Queen Mother, she must do everything she can to protect the country. As a mother, she also needs to help her son who is facing difficulties.
"Is it her?" Zhao Ji was also a little surprised at this time. The person who came turned out to be the Queen Mother Huayang.
"If I don't go, how can I let the imperial guards under my command fight to the death?" Yang Ming said calmly.
"At this critical moment for the country, we should work together as one to overcome the difficulties and fight the national crisis together." Queen Mother Huayang walked into the hall, looked around everyone, and then looked at Qin Wangzheng and Zhao Ji beside him.
When he looked at Zhao Ji, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Besides, doesn't the Queen Mother know about my martial arts? My martial arts is very strong." Yang Ming said with a smile.
"I'm afraid that others will criticize the Queen Mother. Queen Mother, you have to believe that your reputation is very important to me," Yang Ming said.
"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Ji asked.
"It's not that I don't believe in the Queen Mother, you are one of the people I trust most in the world. It's just that you want to give me a lot, but I have to consider your reputation and even your status," Yang Ming said.
"For me?" Zhao Ji was so excited that she even forgot who the Ai family called themselves.
Because the guard is the most suitable commander of this army, but the guard is Changping Lord Xiong Qi, and Xiong Qi is not good at fighting, not to mention the current fierce battle.
But the only person who can replace Yang Ming as the Weiwei Fu Zhongcheng is Xiong Qi, the Weiwei.
"Yes, Yang Ming, the prime minister of the Weiwei Mansion, will be the commander of this army." Qin Wangzheng said with final words.
"Assemble the imperial guards quickly, and I will personally see off our warriors of Great Qin."
