Meanwhile, Meng Wu brought King Qi Jian, thousands of Qi Kingdom members, and hundreds of thousands of Qi Kingdom captives back to court.
Wang Jian was still leading the army.
They had fought hard in the Chu Country.
However, after Xiang Yan's death, there was no general in Chu that could be used.
Therefore, even though they tried their best to resist the Qin army, they were still able to resist the Qin army.
However, without a good general, and with inferior weapons and equipment, the Qin army was not as strong as the Qin army.
The Chu army retreated.
In the end, Wang Jian spent three months and led 200,000 troops to attack the capital of Chu, Shouchun.
Half a month after the siege.
They had finally broken through the capital of Chu.
He captured King Kaolie of the State of Chu and Huang Xie of Chunshen, the Yin of the State of Chu.
The entire royal family, which numbered in the tens of thousands, was detained and sent to Xianyang.
At this point.
Among the Seven Heroes, other than the Qin Country, the last country, which was also the strongest country, the Chu Country, was destroyed.
……
Xianyang City.
Zhangtai Palace.
"Your Majesty, Qi Qi Jian, Qi Prime Minister Hou Sheng, Chu Kaolie, and Chun Shenjun have been brought back to Xianyang to await Your Majesty's decision.”
On this day, Wang Jian and Meng Ao, who had brought the emperors of the Qi and Chu Kingdoms, as well as the Prime Minister and the Magistrate, back to Xianyang City and experienced the cheers of the people of Xianyang City once again, entered the palace to pay their respects to Ying Zheng under the witness of all the officials.
"They're gone. They're all cut in half.”
Ying Zheng seemed to be dispirited.
The last two times he saw these, he was still very excited when he saw the other country's Monarchs who were captured by the Qin Country. Now, he was tired of seeing them.
Anyway, even if he saw them.
Ying Zheng would not let them off either.
Spare their lives.
Since that was the case, he might as well not meet him and let his subordinates cut his waist and head off.
"Your Majesty, it's fine if King Qi and King Chu don't want to meet, but that Yin Chun Shenjun of Chu isn't a simple character.”
"According to the clues that our network has found, this Chun Shenjun was one of the instigators of the five nations 'assassination attempt on His Majesty.”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhao Gao, who was standing beside him, stood up and reminded him.
"Oh, this Chun Shenjun was one of the instigators of the assassination?”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's interest was immediately piqued.
"That's right, it's Chun Shenjun."
Zhao Gao nodded.
"Do any of you know what kind of official position this Yin is in Chu?”
Then, Ying Zheng asked the civil and military officials below curiously.
"Your Majesty, the magistrate is the highest official position in the Chu Country. It is the highest official position that controls political affairs and gives orders. He holds the authority of the country and is in the upper position. He leads the people, governs the country internally, and governs the war externally.”
"According to tradition, the position of the magistrate of the Chu Country is usually held by the nobles of the Chu Country. The Mi, Xiong, Ruo Ao, Zhi, Qu, Zhao, Jing, and Peng families are all the nobles of the Chu Country.”
Hearing Ying Zheng's question, Imperial Censor Li Si stepped forward to explain.
Ying Zheng listened.
Wasn't the position of the Yin equivalent to the Prime Minister and the Grand Marshal of the State of Qin?
The Chu Country had such an official position with power beyond ordinary people's imagination. Not only did it not be destroyed, but it also became the only powerful country among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period that could compete with the Qin Country. It was really a miracle.
However, Ying Zheng thought about it carefully.
The people who held the position of Yin were all nobles of the royal family of Chu, and they were part of the same family as the King of Chu.
No matter how the King of Chu and the Yin fought for power, it was always an internal struggle between their own families.
Indeed, it would not cause much harm to the Chu Country.
However, from the fact that this Chun Shenjun was not a member of the royal family of Chu but was able to take on the position of magistrate, it could be seen that this Chun Shenjun should have true talent.
This could be seen from the fact that Chun Shenjun was one of the instigators of the assassination of Ying Zheng by the experts of the five nations.
"Did this Chun Shenjun have any achievements when he was the magistrate of Chu?”
Then, Ying Zheng asked.
"Of course, he has merits. After King Kaolie of Chu succeeded to the throne and appointed Chun Shenjun as the Yin, Chun Shenjun sent troops to help Zhao resolve the siege of Handan. He also led troops to destroy Lu.”
Li Si continued to explain.
"However, ever since His Majesty ascended the throne, our Qin country's strength and military strength have increased by leaps and bounds. Even Chun Shenjun is powerless.”
In the end, Li Si did not forget to flatter Ying Zheng subtly.
However, Li Si's flattery came at the wrong time, because Ying Zheng's gaze was fleeting, and his emotions had already drifted to an unknown place.
After Li Si's explanation.
Ying Zheng had already figured out who this Chun Shenjun was.
It was one of the four princes of the Warring States Period, Chun Shenjun Huang Xie.
He was one of the four young masters of the Warring States Period, just like Chun Shenjun and Huang Xie.
They were Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling of Wei, Zhao Sheng, Lord Pingyuan of Zhao, and Tian Wen, Lord Mengchang of Qi.
Zhao Sheng, Lord Pingyuan of Zhao State, and Tian Wen, Lord Mengchang of Qi State, were not people of this era.
He had passed away long ago.
Only Lord Xinling, Wei Wuji, and Lord Chunshen, Huang Xie, were from the same era as Ying Zheng.
It was a pity.
That Lord Xinling, Wei Wuji, had already been killed when the State of Qin invaded the State of Wei.
Wang He even showed Wei Wuji's head to Ying Zheng.
But this Chun Shenjun Huang Xie was captured this time.
One of them would probably end up like Lord Xinling and Wei Wuji.
And when Ying Zheng was asking Li Si about it.
Chun Shenjun and Huang Xie had already been brought into the hall.
Unlike Lord Xinling Wei Wuji, Lord Chunshen Huang Xie was an old man with a white beard that reached his chest. He looked like he was almost seventy years old, but he was still in high spirits. He was wearing a red Chu robe.
The moment Ying Zheng saw Chun Shenjun and Huang Xie, a hint of disbelief flashed across his eyes.
He found it hard to believe that the person who planned to unite the experts of the five nations to assassinate him was actually such an old man.
"Chun Shenjun Huang Xie, I heard from the network that you were one of the instigators of the alliance of the five nations to assassinate me?”
Ying Zheng asked.
"Haha."
However, Chun Shenjun, Huang Xie, looked at Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, without responding to him, and only let out a merciless sneer.
"What I don't understand is that I had just taken office at that time. Although I destroyed Wei, it was because Wei Wuji, the Lord of Wei Xinling, asked for help from the five countries and led the alliance army of the five countries to defeat my Qin army.”
Ying Zheng ignored Huang Xie's sneer and continued to ask.
