Chapter 218： Your brother-in-law is the eldest son! Do something for your brother-in-law!

Chapter 218 Your brother-in-law is the eldest son! Do something for your brother-in-law!

Looking at Wang Jian's serious look, Wang Ben didn't know what was going on.

He immediately nodded and said, "Dad, I will keep my mouth shut."

"You and I, father and son, are one."

"If it's an outsider, dad really can't speak."

"But after seeing the situation in the court, for the sake of your brother-in-law, our Wang family must do something for your brother-in-law." Wang Jian said with a serious face.

"What can you do for your brother-in-law?" Wang Ben looked confused.

"Your brother-in-law is the king's son." Wang Jian said in a deep voice.

Hear this.

Wang Ben's expression became very strange, then he slowly stood up and looked at Wang Jian as if he were looking at a lunatic patient.

Subsequently.

"father."

"You're not dreaming, and you're not sick. Why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight?"

"It just so happens that Dr. Xia is back. My brother-in-law has a good relationship with him. I will go to Dr. Xia to check on you in a while." Wang Ben said with concern on his face.

Hear this.

Wang Jian gave a very speechless glance and immediately cursed: "Smelly boy, do you think your father is crazy?"

"father."

"You're not crazy and talking nonsense."

"Don't you know who my brother-in-law is?"

"He was born in Shaqiu, not Xianyang."

"The king has been living in Xianyang since he came back from Zhao. How could he go to the sand dunes to find a concubine to give birth to a brother-in-law?" Wang Ben smiled, thinking that his father was confused.

Wang Jian didn't speak, just looked at Wang Ben quietly.

Under the gaze of Wang Jian.

Wang Ben also felt something was wrong.

"etc."

"father."

"are you serious?"

Wang Ben then became serious.

"I'm not serious. Do you think dad will talk nonsense to you about the royal family and the king's son?" Wang Jian cursed angrily.

"That's impossible."

"How could my brother-in-law be the king's son?" Wang Ben still looked unconvinced.

"Have you forgotten the girl who accompanied the king from Zhao to Qin?" Wang Jian asked.

"hiss."

Wang Ben took a breath of cold air.

"Isn't she already dead?"

"That bloodbath in the palace." Wang Ben said solemnly.

"As a father, I can tell you for sure."

"That girl is not dead, and she gave birth to brother and sister Zhao Feng, the king's flesh and blood." Wang Jian said with certainty.

"father."

"It's not that the child doesn't believe it."

"It's just that this matter is too big."

"How did dad know?" Wang Ben asked in confusion.

Wang Jian smiled and pointed towards the palace: "Your Majesty."

"Did the king himself say it?"

"Doesn't that mean it's true?"

"Brother-in-law is the eldest son and is of royal blood."

"Doesn't that mean that my brother-in-law has a chance to become the prince?"

Wang Ben was always a straight-tempered person. Now that he learned Zhao Feng's identity, he couldn't help but feel a touch of excitement on his face.

"Not a chance."

"Judging from the king's attitude towards your brother-in-law, the king fundamentally intends to make your brother-in-law the crown prince."

"When the king told me this, I was a little at a loss."

"It also took a long time to calm down."

Thinking of how he looked after leaving Zhangtai Palace, Wang Jian couldn't help but sigh.

"My child remembers this."

"When my brother-in-law was promoted to a noble title, Wang Wan reported that my Wang family and my brother-in-law had too much military power. After that, my father was summoned to Zhangtai Palace by the king."

"Then dad walked out of Zhangtai Palace with a bad look on his face."

"The whole Xianyang is talking about it, and the relationship is because of this." Wang Ben said with a look of surprise.

Wang Jian smiled: "If you had heard what the king said with your own ears, you would not be able to accept it for a while."

"This one too."

Wang Ben also nodded in agreement.

At this moment, his expression gradually became weird: "My brother-in-law is the king's son. This is simply unbelievable."

"No one would have thought of this."

"No wonder you broke up with Wang Wan like that today, for the whole court to see."

"It turns out all this is for my brother-in-law."

Wang Jian smiled: "Yes!"

"Today, Wang Wan broke up with Wang Wan in public in the court. This is because Wang Wan has gone too far. He has done it again and again. If he continues to tolerate it, he will really think that my Wang family is easy to bully."

"certainly."

"Through today."

"Let the many ministers in the court who have not taken sides see my attitude, Wang Jian."

"This will also have an impact on Fusu."

"These days, my father also wants to understand."

"The reason why the king told me about Zhao Feng's identity may not only be to comfort him, but also the reason why we serve as Zhao Feng's helpers."

"Zhao Feng doesn't know his identity, and it's impossible to think that he is the prince."

"The king wants to pave the way for Zhao Feng, but for the sake of the stability of the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Feng's identity will not be announced before the world is unified. After the announcement, there must be Zhao Feng's people in the court, not just the army. It’s also a court.”

"Pass this."

"My father wants to select some supporters for Zhao Feng, who can be used by Zhao Feng in the future."

"If you want that position, you must have your own team." Wang Jian said solemnly.

"father."

"You underestimate your brother-in-law too much."

"Although my brother-in-law doesn't know his identity and doesn't have many friends in the court, his only friend, Han Fei, is now one of the Nine Qings, and his influence is not small."

"Lee Si again."

"He is opposed to the eldest son, no, he is opposed to Fusu, and he is opposed to Wang Wan and the others. Now his son Li You is serving as a general under his brother-in-law. If the identity of his brother-in-law is announced one day, Li Si will definitely stand on his brother-in-law's side. "

"Two of the nine ministers are on the side of my brother-in-law."

"Then there is Wei Liao, the young man whom the king values ​​most."

"He is a disciple of Guigu, and he is very resourceful."

"Ever since he entered the Qin Dynasty, he has always stayed on the sidelines. He has never formed a party or made friends with others. He can't win over anyone. But he treats his brother-in-law differently, and it can be seen in the court."

"As for the two brothers Feng Quji and Feng Jie, we can put them aside for now. It seems that they are not involved in the party struggle at the moment."

"The Meng family."

"They have chosen Fusu."

Although Wang Ben is straight-tempered, he is very smart and has sorted out the basic situation in the court in a short period of time.

"You are still very smart when you use your brain."

"Not bad." Wang Jian praised Wang Ben.

"father."

"Actually, although the voices in the court will have some influence on the king, the king still holds the royal power. Which young master will be the future prince is fundamentally determined by the king."

"after all."

"Although the civil servants above the court can stir up some troubles, as long as the world is unified, no matter how they stir up troubles, as long as the king is determined, everything can be suppressed with troops."

"So..." Wang Ben said with a bit of seriousness.

"So, you want to ask the king whether he intends to make your brother-in-law the crown prince. Do you want to confirm it or talk about it?" Wang Jian said with a smile.

Wang Ben nodded: "That's right."

"Judging from the long conversation with the king that day, his expectations for Zhao Feng are unmatched by any young master."

"If the future successor of Great Qin is a drunkard, he cannot be suppressed."

"And among the princes, who can be stronger than Zhao Feng?"

"In other words, among all the people in the world, who can be stronger than Zhao Feng?" Wang Jian said in a deep voice, expressing his affirmation of Ying Zheng's attitude.

"This matter."

"Do you want your sister to know?"

Wang Ben asked tentatively.

"No." Wang Jian shook his head.

"The king said it."

"When the world is unified, it will give Zhao Feng a surprise, and even more, it will give Zhao Feng's mother a surprise."

"If Yan'er finds out, she will definitely tell Zhao Feng."

"If this spoils the king's mind, it would be a serious crime."

"The reason why I tell you is to make you pay attention to this matter and not to rashly support any young master. Our Wang family is uniquely endowed and now we have the best opportunity. If it is ruined by your boy, I will not be polite as a father. Already." Wang Jian warned in a deep voice.

"father."

"My child has always followed your teachings and never participated in party disputes."

"You think too much about the child." Wang Ben said a little aggrievedly.

"alright."

"Let's not talk about this for now. You are rotting in my heart."

"I broke up with Wang Wan in the court today and even threatened him."

"Based on my understanding of him, he will definitely find a way to deal with my Wang family, and at the same time he will pay more attention to military power."

"There is no war in Lantian camp now."

"You pay close attention to the movements of Wang Wan and the others. Write down all the generals of the imperial guards in Xianyang and even the generals of the surrounding counties and counties in Xianyang who are related to them." Wang Jian said in a deep voice.

He is not someone like Wang Wan who talks on paper.

Wang Jian has experienced many battles, and since he was so angry in the court, he can guess what Wang Wan will do next.

Wang Jian is not worried about this at all.

all in all.

Now the current king has given him the confidence, and the royal power is unshakable.

"Please don't worry dad."

"I will definitely handle this properly."

"Wang Wan, the old guy, and Chun Yuyue will have their good fruits to eat in the future." Wang Ben sneered.

—

Yan State, Yuyang County!

In front of the city.

More than 200,000 Qin soldiers are waiting in formation, and it seems that they will invade Yuyang City at any time.

Even if the Qin army did not move.

The terrifying military power made the entire Yuyang City seem to be overwhelmed by evil spirits, creating an infinite sense of oppression.

"General."

"Everything is ready."

Tu Sui immediately stepped forward and reported to Zhao Feng on the chariot.

"Are they all written in Yan characters?" Zhao Feng looked at Tu Sui and asked.

"Exactly."

"Everything is tied to the arrow." Tu Sui immediately replied.

"The arrows are flying today."

"Tomorrow we will suppress the attack with arrows."

Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.

"General, take the order." Tu Sui immediately took the order.

Then.

Bang, bang, bang.

The sound of drums echoed through the void.

Follow closely.

Tens of thousands of archers who had been prepared long ago strode towards the city.

On Yuyang City.

Qing Qin's face became extremely solemn.

"The Qin army has just arrived at the city and is preparing to attack today."

"Zhao Feng."

"Am I really his opponent?"

Seeing the murderous intent rolling like black clouds in front of the city, Qing Qin felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Now the world.

Zhao Feng's name is already famous.

Especially for other countries, Zhao Feng's command of troops is like a nightmare.

There has never been a defeat since taking over the army.

Lian Po, Pang Nuan, Wei Wuji and other powerful generals all died in Zhao Feng's hands. Compared to them, Qing Qin himself also understood how much he weighed.

So before the war actually started, Qing Qin already felt a bit of fear in his heart.

"General."

"Information has arrived."

"This time the Qin State only dispatched the Wu'an camp and did not send additional camps."

"With our strength, we can definitely hold it if we simply defend it."

Lieutenant General Le Cheng on the side reported to Qing Qin.

Although they were both generals in official rank, Le Cheng was obviously not trusted by King Yan. After all, he had a history of surrendering.

"There are three hundred thousand troops in Yuyang City."

"The Qin army also has nearly 300,000 troops."

"How long will it take for the army from Jicheng to be mobilized?" Qing Qin asked.

"It will take at least half a month." Le Cheng replied immediately.

"Half a month."

"Can Yuyang be able to defend it?" Qing Qin sighed in his heart.

At this time!

"General."

"The Qin army seems to be ready to fire arrows."

An observing general loudly reported.

"Sure enough, it is still the Qin army's consistent fighting method."

"In the battle of siege, arrows come first."

"Go down here and be on guard against arrows." Qing Qin shouted loudly.

There was nothing he could do about the arrows coming from Da Qin except to prepare for them.

After all, the rain of arrows from the sky covered almost half of the city.

"kill!"

Zhao Feng pulled out his sword, pointed at Yuyang City and shouted.

"Wind, wind, wind."

"Strong wind."

Nearly three hundred thousand Qin soldiers shouted in unison.

The wind shouted.

The Da Qin archers lined up in front of the city bent their bows and nocked arrows.

Countless arrows rained towards the city.

It rains pear blossoms in heavy rain, and arrows rain in the sky.

Just like the previous siege battles.

The Yan army in the city was naturally extremely frightened when faced with this rain of arrows, and prayed in their hearts.

And this rain of arrows not only contained murderous intent, but many arrows were also tied with cloth.

When many Yan troops were killed in the city, many Yan troops also saw the cloth on the arrows.

"Come and see, these Qin arrows are tied with cloth."

"There's writing on it."

"Look what it is?"

…

"It says that the Qin State came to attack my country, Yan, because the King of Yan sent assassins to assassinate me, and the Qin State's masters were famous."

"Is the rumor true? Our king really sent people to assassinate King Qin?"

"Looking at it this way, I, Dayan, are really unreasonable. Master Qin is famous."

"What can we do?"

"The Qin State has a good reputation, Qi and Chu will not send troops, and our Yan State will not be Qin's opponent."

…

When looking at the contents on the cloth, the news spread accordingly.

On the tower.

"General, the Qin army has adopted a strategy of attacking the heart." A general walked up to Qing Qin with a piece of blood-stained cloth and handed it to Qing Qin respectfully.

Qing Qin took it.

There are not many words on the cloth.

There is only one sentence written in the Chinese character Yan: "The country of Yan is unjust and assassinates our king! The warriors of the Qin Dynasty are coming for revenge! Those who surrender will avoid death, but resist and kill him!"

"Zhao Feng."

"What a good idea."

"This is a way to disrupt the morale of our military."

Qing Qin took a look and sighed.

"General, what should we do?"

"The Qin army's move has greatly damaged the morale of our army. Once the Qin army attacks the city, it will be difficult for our army to resist." The general on the side said worriedly.

"Send the general's order."

"Once the cloth on Qin's arrow is found and cannot be inspected, each corps commander will immediately put it away and burn it."

"Anyone who dares to spread the news will be prosecuted by military law." Qing Qin said coldly.

"promise."

The general immediately took the order.

"Now that the news has initially spread, this move is only a temporary solution, not the root cause." Lecheng said.

"If it spreads wantonly, the impact will be even greater."

"Let's take a step and see."

"When reinforcements arrive, there may be a chance for everything." Qing Qin sighed in his heart.

Seeing this, Lecheng said no more.

At this moment.

Qing Qin suddenly turned his head and stared at Le Cheng: "General Le Cheng, will you die for Dayan?"

Le Cheng was shocked and immediately said, "What does General Qing mean?"

"In the past, when Zhao invaded, General Le surrendered to Zhao."

"Before I came to Yuyang, the king was naturally a little worried." Qing Qin said coldly.

The words are full of warnings.

"General Qing, please rest assured, Le Cheng is willing to die for Dayan." Le Cheng immediately expressed his stance.

See this.

Qing Qin smiled: "Of course I believe in General Lecheng."

"but."

"For the survival of my Dayan."

"Please also ask General Lecheng to relinquish military power first."

"The 100,000-strong army you command will be handed over to my command," Qing Qin said again.

The moment his voice fell.

The surrounding guards looked at Le Cheng eagerly.

The same is naturally true for the personal guards around Le Cheng.

It seems that the two generals of Yan State will meet each other at any time.

but.

Look at this situation.

Lecheng finally gave in.

"Since the king has asked General Qing to command the entire army, the general should cooperate."

Le Cheng spoke slowly.

"in this way."

"When the Qin army is defeated, I will definitely ask for credit for General Le." Qing Qin smiled with satisfaction.

In the end, he won the battle.

"King Yan."

"Even now you don't believe me."

"The reason why I surrendered to Zhao in the first place was all because of your inability to arrange logistics and food supplies, and even reinforcements never came."

"If I don't surrender, all 100,000 troops will be slaughtered by Zhao Jun."

"It is impossible for the Yan State to preserve a hundred thousand strong army."

"Now you blame me." Le Cheng was extremely angry at this moment, but in the end he could only feel helpless.

"General Le."

"Please return to the palace."

"There is no need for the general to worry about the defense of Yuyang."

Qing Qin pointed to the city again and said.

It's clear.

Qing Qin is to imprison Lecheng.

And of course there is no way to change the latter.

Above the void.

Qin's arrows continued to shoot out.

The city was wailing.

Time flies!

At night.

Inside the Qin camp!

Zhao Feng was in the chief position, and the three generals were sitting in the tent.

"tomorrow."

"It's still the siege tactics commonly used in Wu'an Camp."

"Trebuchets and archers press the formation, with 50,000 vanguard troops in front, tearing apart the Yuyang City defense line, and the cavalry rushes into the formation."

"I am a pioneer."

Zhao Feng spoke slowly.

"You will finally understand."

Tu Sui and Zhang Han said in unison.

Only Li You was still a little uncomfortable with it.

Obviously he still doesn't know Zhao Feng's true strength, let alone that this is Wu'an Camp's consistent strategy.

"but."

"Tonight."

"Maybe there's a different option."

"Do you know anything about this person named Lecheng?" Zhao Feng looked at the three of them.

"Come back, General."

"I will know something about Lecheng." Li You said immediately.

"explain."

Zhao Feng waved his hand.

"This man was once a general of the Yan State, with a higher status than Qing Qin. But in the past, when the Zhao State attacked Yan, Lian Po surrounded Lecheng's 100,000 troops with an army of 200,000 at the border. The Yan army was cut off from food and grass, and there were no reinforcements to save it. Le Cheng knows that if he continues to fight, he will not be afraid of casualties."

"Therefore the surrender is ordered."

"It is precisely because of this that Le Cheng became a world-famous traitor and the traitor with the highest official position." Li You said respectfully.

"Yes." Zhao Feng nodded.

At this time.

Zhang Ming quickly walked in from outside the camp.

"General."

"Information came from Yuyang City." Zhang Ming respectfully handed over a secret report.

Open it and take a look.

A smile appeared on Zhao Feng's face: "As I expected, Qing Qin will take back Le Cheng's military power. Le Cheng can try to break the city for our Great Qin."

Zhang Han was immediately surprised and said: "General, Le Cheng has no more military power, how can he still defeat the city for our great Qin?"

"I don't believe that Lecheng will not have a backup plan." Zhao Feng smiled lightly.

Then he looked at Zhang Ming: "Ask the brothers in the city to go to the city to win over Le Cheng and move out high-ranking officials with generous salaries. No matter what conditions he wants, agree."

"No." Zhang Ming went to do it immediately.

"General."

"The general will find this joy vehicle untrustworthy."

Li You said with hesitation.

"Who told you that I would believe him?" Zhao Feng laughed.

"Then why did the general send people to win over him?" Li You was puzzled.

But his words trailed off.

Zhang Han and Tu Sui understood instantly.

"The general is wise."

The two of them bowed immediately, with admiration on their faces.

And Li You thought about it for a moment and understood it instantly.

"The general is brilliant!"
