Chapter 370 Your Majesty is as stable as Mount Tai(1/2)

Li Shui was so arrogant that he shouted out loud, wanting to sue Wang Jian.

Wang Jian colluded with Xiang Liang. One of these two people was a big rebel and the other held heavy troops. The two were in Chu. Once they colluded with each other, the world would be difficult to deal with.

Li Shui thought that after calling out such important news, the audience would be shocked, but the reactions of the people present were a bit strange.

Ying Zheng was not furious or anxious, but instead looked at Li Shui helplessly.

Chunyu Yue had a look of regret.

Li Si, Wang Wan and Zhao Teng looked at each other, looking at me, I looked at you, clearly saying: The exiled immortal is here again...

Li Xin was a little confused next to him: "Are you too calm? Wang Jian colluded with Xiang Liang, so this matter should not be underestimated."

Chunyu Yue stood up and reached out to drive Li Shui and Li Xin out: "You two, don't always worry that the world will not be in chaos. Don't always stir up trouble here. Today he rebels, tomorrow he says I rebels. In your eyes, are everyone in the world rebels?"

Li Si also said: "Yes, the exiled immortal used to sue people for rebellion, at least in person, why did they all sue them in secret today?"

Li Xin said anxiously: "Today is true."

All the adults present were stunned, and someone said quietly: "Are those in the past fake?"

Li Shui glanced at Li Xin and thought to himself: This idiot...

He took the initiative to stand up and smooth things over: "We have evidence today."

The courtier said quietly: "There is no evidence in the past?"

Li Xin glanced at Li Shui: This foolish person...

In the end, the two of them did not intend to defend themselves, so they turned around and pointed to Song E behind them: "This person is a witness. Song E, tell me everything you know."

On the way, Song E had been scared by the majesty in the palace and was a little overwhelmed. At this time, when she saw Li Shui and Li Xin asking, she quickly whispered to tell the story of the matter.

After she finished speaking, the people present finally took it seriously.

Ying Zheng asked lightly: "Did you come from Xianyang from Chu to Chu?"

Song E nodded: "The little woman was in Chu and had a relationship with General Li. She knew that General Li was a kind and righteous person, so she came to find the general to help."

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Wan: "Come and get your household registration."

Wang Wan stood up quickly and hurriedly walked out. After a while, she came in with a household registration book.

The land of Chu has always been chaotic, but after the Qin Dynasty destroyed Chu, the first thing was to do was to sort out the local household registration. Other common people might conceal their household registration, abandon their families and flee into the mountains and swamps as thieves, but it was impossible for Song Liu, a powerful man who had a family with his family.

Sure enough, Ying Zheng quickly found Song Liu's name, and the records about Song Liu were exactly the same as what Song E said.

Ying Zheng pondered for a while and asked Li Si: "What do you think about Tingwei?"

Li Si said: "If Wang Jian really wants to rebel, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, the old minister always felt that this matter was too incredible. If he heard this girl Song's one-sided remark, he would suspect the commander in the army, which was a bit too hasty."

Ying Zheng nodded and asked Li Shui: "Do you have other evidence?"

Li Shui thought for a while and said, "There is no other evidence for the time being, but there are some things that can prove that Wang Jian is interested in treason."

Ying Zheng asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Shui said: "When General Li and I left Chu, Xiang Liang had completely failed. He was captured by Wang Jian, but he was actually robbed by a group of thieves on the way to Xianyang City. Isn't this too funny?"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly: "It's indeed a bit unusual, but this is not ironclad evidence. It is also possible that the soldiers escorting the prisoners are negligent for a moment."

Li Shui bowed and said, "Yes, it is possible. However, after Xiang Liang escaped, his wealth and his troops were wiped out. He is now alone, so how difficult is it to rebel?"

"Wang Jian led a 100,000 army stationed in Chu. General Li and I visited him before leaving. Wang Jian told me that he planned to divide the 100,000 army into countless small teams, and go deep into every county, every county, and every township. Reorganize household registration and capture Xiang Liang."

"With such a tight network, Xiang Liang will definitely be inseparable. Moreover, the Xiang family's remnants are the objects of close monitoring by Wang Jian. Xiang Liang could not fall into the trap and go to the Xiang family's remnants for help. In this way, Xiang Liang had almost no chance to rebel again."

Everyone nodded.

Li Shui said again: "If I were Wang Jian, what would I do if I really colluded with Xiang Liang?"

Everyone stared at each other and didn't say anything. Wang Wan smiled slightly: "Exiled Immortal, we have no experience in being a traitor, so I really don't know."

Li Shui said lightly: "I am not experienced either, but my mind is good, so I can guess it. If I were Wang Jian, I would raise the bandits and respect themselves."

"I will share half of the money and food given to me by the court, asking him to recruit soldiers and then fight with him. Every time I fight, Xiang Liang loses one battle, but I can't gather him and annihilate him. Not only that, Xiang Liang will fight more and more people."

"In this way, the court can only continue to give me money and food and soldiers. And I will distribute the money and food to Xiang Liang."

"We two go back and forth, and we will retreat, fighting with great enthusiasm. The more we fight, the more soldiers there are, the more we fight. And the money and food that Your Majesty gave me was divided equally by our two families."

"When we are strong to a certain extent, by then, maybe I will divide the land of Chu equally with Xiang Liang. Maybe I will destroy Xiang Liang and dominate the land of Chu alone. Maybe I will join forces with Xiang Liang to take the world and then fight with each other. No matter what the result is, it will be enough to cause chaos in the Qin Dynasty."

Ying Zheng frowned when he heard this. He shook his head slightly and said, "I have already installed many generals in Wang Jian's army. Seventy percent of his generals are not direct descendants. If he wants to rebel, these people will not agree."

Li Shui whispered: "What if he deliberately eliminated these generals one by one using the excuse of fighting Xiang Liang?"

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly shrank.

The courtiers also took a breath, and then they slowly shook their heads: "It's incredible, it's incredible, and I can't imagine it."

Li Shui took out a bamboo tube from his body, ordered someone to bring a phonograph, and then began to slowly turn the handle.

Wang Jian's voice appeared in the phonograph. It was the voice that Li Shui and Li Xin recorded before leaving.

In this voice, Wang Jian swore to the point that he had an army of 100,000, and Xiang Liang could not cause any storm and would be caught soon.

After the recording was played, Li Shui said: "If... if Wang Jian sent a war report and said that Xiang Liang was rekindled, it means that he deliberately gave Xiang Liang a way out. If the war report said that a general was brave in fighting and unfortunately died, it means that he was cutting off his dissidents. If the war report said that he needed troops, horses, money and food, it means that he was going to invest in the enemy."

Li Shui looked around and said, "You guys have no objection to this inference, right?"

Li Si pondered for a while and said, "The Xiang Liang Rebellion has been put down. This is unquestionable. If he can ignite the war in a short time, there will be a problem. Of course, perhaps it is unknown whether he received funding from other places. This is not easy to generalize."

Li Shui rolled her eyes: "You said nothing."

Li Si smiled helplessly and said clearly: "If Wang Jian's battle report is really hit by the exiled immortal's words, I think it is 70% possible that Wang Jian will be rebellious."

Wang Wanchun Yu Yue and others bowed and said, "I will discuss it."

Ying Zheng's face turned pale. The commander of the three armies he sent out actually colluded with the rebels. This was simply a joke, a ridicule of the first emperor in ancient times. Ying Zheng did not allow such a thing to happen, let alone a 70% chance, even if there is no such thing as 100%.

The people present whispered, and many people looked worried on their faces.

At this time, Ying Zheng spoke. He stood up and said lightly: "Wang Jian's battle report should be here in the past two days. It is clear whether he is loyal or traitor."

"If Wang Jian intends to rebel, it will be very harmful. If I deal with the marshal who is leading the troops based on just some speculations, it will also lead to endless disasters. You should not lose your own way in this matter. You should make a long-term plan and make a decision before you act."

Chunyu Yue and others nodded with admiration.

Ying Zheng waved his hand: "You all go home. After leaving, don't spread this matter everywhere."

The court officials present said they didn't dare, and then they slowly walked towards the door.

When they were about to go out, Ying Zheng said lightly: "Song E, don't leave. Just stay in the palace. Let's live in the Yumeiren Palace for the time being, treat it with the courtesy of guests."

Song E didn't even have the courage to refuse and agreed timidly.

At this time, she felt as if she was in a dream. Not long ago, she was just a lady from a wealthy family who was not out of the gate. Suddenly, her family was destroyed and her family died. Suddenly, she arrived in Xianyang again.

I was just taken in by Wang Laoshi. After a few days of stable life, I entered the palace and met His Majesty. Now I am a guest in the palace again.

After walking out of Ying Zheng's study, a little eunuch came over, greeted Li Shui with a smile, and then said to Song E: "Miss, please follow me. I am the eunuch in Yu Meiren's palace."

Li Shui smiled at Song E: "Go, Princess Weiyang is kind-hearted, you will not be wronged."

Song E responded and followed the little eunuch tremblingly.

Li Shui said to Li Xin: "Brother Li, I am convinced today."

Li Xin asked in confusion: "What are you convinced?"

Li Shui said, "What does it mean to collapse in front of Mount Tai but remain calm? After such a big incident, I hurried into the palace and didn't even have time to wash my face. But what about Your Majesty? He was so calm and said he would wait for three or two days to make plans after Wang Jian's battle report arrived."

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I can't learn this kind of cultivation even if I practice for another hundred years."

Li Xin nodded, and then said to himself: "But, will this not delay the opportunity for war? If it were me, no matter whether he was true or not, I will send someone to Chu first..."

As the two of them were talking about this, a little eunuch with a very handsome face rushed up from behind and whispered in their ears: "Two whispers, your Majesty, please."

Then the little eunuch left in a hurry, as if the words were not what he said at all.

Li Shui and Li Xin looked at each other, and the two of them quietly observed Chunyu Yue, Li Si and others walking in front. While they were not paying attention, they flashed and hid behind a wall, then circled around and walked towards Ying Zheng's study.

After these two men entered, they found that there was only Ying Zheng in the huge study.

Seeing that the two of them were coming, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "I want to send someone to Chu. Can anyone choose you?"

Li Shui and Li Xin looked at each other, and a strange smile appeared on their faces.

Ying Zheng asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Li Shui coughed dryly: "Your Majesty just now, didn't you clearly say you would wait for three or two days?"

Ying Zheng said lightly: "How can the emperor's thoughts be revealed in front of others all the time?"

Li Shui and Li Xin suddenly realized.

At this time, Li Xin stood up and said confidently: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead three thousand troops to flatten the land of Chu and capture Wang Jian."

Ying Zheng shook his head: "No, I want you to stay in Xianyang."

Li Shui didn't say anything, he guessed Ying Zheng's thoughts.

Wang Jian is a veteran on the battlefield and has fought for the Qin Dynasty for his whole life. He is clear about the characteristics of the Qin army, the path to enter the pass, and even how to attack and defend the pass.
