Chapter 80 Yan Dan, the only one who wakes up alone
Xianyang DC District, Yan State Embassy.
The world's impression of the Yan State is just that it is weak, but although the Yan State is weak, it is definitely not poor. Nearly eight hundred years of accumulation have made the Yan State's nobles extremely wealthy. In the battle with the Qi State, Qi State was defeated.
Seventy of the country's seventy-two cities were looted. Therefore, in terms of wealth alone, the Yan country was very rich.
Therefore, the Yan State Embassy in Xianyang was purchased by the King of Yan at a great expense. In this area, there are residences of Qin State important officials, and it is very close to Xianyang Palace. It can be said that the area where the Yan State Embassy is located is the Qin State.
The area closest to power.
In the main room of the Yan State Embassy, which had been vacant for a long time, the lights were lit again. After the desk, a young man of about 20 years old sat upright and slowly ate the food on the desk. However, his brows were indeed slightly frowned, as if
It's like encountering something difficult.
"Prince, I heard that you met the King of Qin when you were in the capital of Zhao?" Another fat middle-aged man in the room asked the young man.
"Uncle Wang, that happened a long time ago. Who would have thought that the young man who was struggling to make a living in Zhao Du would one day become the King of Qin." The young man put down the chopsticks in his hands and said.
The young man is Yan Dan, the prince of the Yan Kingdom. Judging from his age, he is only about twenty years old. He is born in a royal family and has the nobility of the royal family, but he does not have the arrogance of the royal family. Instead, he has the aura of a Jianghu person, an aura of Jianghu.
It made him appear to have another heart-wrenching demeanor in his nobility.
He has the chicness of a charlatan without the indulgence of a charlatan, and the cultivation of a royal family without the arrogance of a royal family. This is undoubtedly a person who can easily attract the favor of others.
"At this time, the alliance between Yan State and Qin State is of great importance. Since the prince has an old political relationship with the King of Qin, he must make good use of this relationship." The fat middle-aged man said.
He is the younger brother of Yan Wangxi and the uncle of Yan Dan. He is titled Yan Chunjun and is the most powerful minister in the Yan Kingdom.
"I know, but I don't know how much love I still have with Qin Wangzheng. Uncle Wang, don't put too much hope in the friendship that may no longer exist," Yan Dan said.
As for the alliance between Yan and Qin, Yan Dan was opposed to it from the beginning to the end.
The State of Qin is too powerful, and an alliance with it is undoubtedly seeking the skin of a tiger.
If you unite with Qin to attack Zhao, you can certainly capture several cities from Zhao. However, if Zhao cannot become a threat to Qin, will Yan still be safe?
When one day, the Qin State pushes the border to the Yan State's border, will the Yan State be able to resist?
It's a pity that so many mediocre people in China cannot see this. Yan Dan thought helplessly.
However, he was only a prince and could not influence the decision-making of his father, King Yan Wangxi. Therefore, even if he did not want to do anything, he could only come to Xianyang and act as a hostage for Qin Yan's alliance.
Helpless and sad, not only for Yan State, but also for myself.
"You only need to do what you can do, and I will do the rest." Yan Chunjun frowned, looking at Yan Dan with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
Yes, although he is the uncle of Yan Dan, Yan Chunjun does not like his nephew, the prince, at all.
Because he could see that in Yan Dan, there was contempt for people like himself. It seemed that people like himself were mediocre people who harmed the country and the people. Only Yan Dan himself was the truly sober person in the world.
Just like now, when everyone in Yan State decided to form an alliance with Qin State to attack Zhao State, only Yan Dan opposed it.
It seems that only Yan Dan can see that cooperating with the Qin State is seeking the skin of a tiger. They are all useless people and cannot see how terrible the Qin State is.
Yes, if Zhao is weakened, Zhao will not be able to stop Qin, and Yan will be in danger in the future.
However, the danger that comes to the Qin State can only be in the future after the Zhao State ceases to exist. But the danger from the Zhao State is in the present for the Yan State.
Yan Dan could only see the danger from Qin, but he took it for granted that Zhao was a good neighbor. He could not see at all that once Zhao became weak, he would also need blood transfusions from other places.
When the State of Zhao expanded its borders to the north, the lands of the wolf tribe were now the northern border of the State of Zhao.
Now, Zhao State also needs blood transfusion from the outside. To the west is Qin State. Zhao State's defense is still barely adequate, so there is no way to attack.
To the east of the Zhao State is the Qi State. Although the Qi State has long been on the ground, the foundation of the great country is still there after all, and the Zhao State does not dare to take action.
In the south of Zhao State, there are two countries, South Korea and Wei. Zhao State still needs the strength of these two countries to block Qin's eastward march, and Zhao State will not take action against it.
In this way, if the Zhao State attempts to complete the blood transfusion internally through expansion, it will have no choice but to attack the Yan State.
And once the Zhao State takes action against the Yan State, how can the Yan State's army possibly stop it?
Zhao's army is so strong that only Qin's army in the world can compete with it. If Yan cannot rely on Qin, it will be a tragedy for Yan to face Zhao's attack.
Yan Dan thinks that he is the only one who is smart and has a long-term vision, while they are all short-sighted.
This is how Yan Dan can make Lord Yan Chun not hate Yan Dan. In Yan State, not only Lord Yan Chun has this attitude towards Yan Dan, but most of the ministers in power also have this attitude.
But Yan Chunjun also had to admit that Yan Dan's idealism was still very appealing to some young people in Yan State. Unfortunately, they were all people who thought they were smart and thought they had seen the future, but they didn't know that even the current situation was
I never saw it clearly.
"I will try my best not to abandon public service for personal reasons." Yan Dan said, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
The senior officials of Yan State are all short-sighted people, so where is the future? Yan Dan thought sadly and angrily in his heart.
······
Xianyang Palace.
Hong Lian, who was in charge of the night watch, came to the hall again. However, before today, she was only afraid of this place. However, when she stepped into the palace again, she had other thoughts in her heart.
It's all because of that hateful Duanmu Rong.
What happened last night?
Hong Lian, who was standing by Ying Zheng's side and waiting for Ying Zheng's orders at any time, couldn't help but look at Ying Zheng. A strange picture rushed into her mind involuntarily, which made Hong Lian subconsciously turn her body to face Ying Zheng.
.
However, this posture did not make Honglian feel the slightest sense of security. Instead, it reminded her of another picture. In that picture, her back seemed to be facing away.
Thinking of this, Honglian quickly hugged her chest. She only remembered that in that picture, this place was very dangerous.
Guren, who was caught in a war with himself, did not notice the changes in himself at all.
She didn't notice that pink mist was evaporating from her body. The two short legs under her skirt were unconsciously entangled together, and her waist formed a strange arc.
"What is this little guy doing?" Ying Zheng, who had put down the bamboo slips at some point, looked at Hong Lian. Even with his IQ, he was still confused when facing Hong Lian.
