Ying Zheng understood what Zhao Mu meant. Without the Tiger Tally, he would not be able to mobilize the army. This was Lu Buwei's greatest foundation.
Ever since Lu Buwei had stepped into the Great Qin Dynasty Hall, he had learned a lesson from Shang Yang, Fan Sui, and the others. He believed that these people had been powerful in Great Qin for a while, but in the end, they had died.
In the end, it was because they did not have a place in Great Qin's army.
Thus, from the very beginning, Lu Buwei had supported Meng Ao, who came from the Qi Kingdom. He had trained Meng Ao to be on his side and helped him gain a foothold in the Great Qin Army.
At the same time, Lu Buwei himself led his troops into battle and destroyed Dong Zhou.
Later, it was proven that his choice was not wrong.
Meng Ao had established himself in Great Qin's army with shocking military achievements, and he had made the Meng family a rising General of War in Great Qin's army.
Because of this, Lu Buwei had gained quite a bit of prestige in the Qin army through his own and Meng Ao's battle achievements.
When King Zhuang Xiang passed away, the Tiger Tally was given to Lu Buwei, which stabilized the Great Qin Dynasty.
With the Tiger Tally in hand, and Lu Buwei's prestige in the Qin army, it was impossible for Ying Zheng to wrestle with Lu Buwei in a short period of time.
This wasn't a battle on the battlefield. Zhao Mu only needed to kill the enemy with a saber in his hand.
If Zhao Mu killed Lu Buwei now, Ying Zheng would indeed be able to take control of the government.
However, Zhao Mu knew that Ying Zheng would definitely push him out in the next moment, and use his life to appease the anger of Lu Buwei and the other civil and military officials.
Therefore, this battle with Lu Buwei would definitely last for a long time.
Zhao Mu's words made Ying Zheng fall silent. He knew that he was a little impatient.
"Your Majesty, recently, the Left Shu Chang Wang He has been in close contact with Minister Lü. General Wang He was once Lord Wu 'an's deputy general for a long time, following Lord Wu' an on his expeditions to the south and north, and has quite a bit of prestige in the army.”
"He has sided with Minister Lyu, and Minister Lyu's influence in the army is bound to rise once again. Therefore, King, we still have to endure.”
"Not only that, if my guess is correct, Minister Lyu will send me to lead the army to attack the Third Jin Dynasty soon. Moreover, it will definitely be an extremely difficult battle. When the time comes, the King will be in Xianyang. Please be careful and contact Meng Tian if anything happens.”
Zhao Mu added.
After Lu Buwei stabilized the court, he used his father's funeral to test his prestige among the dukes.
The first thing to do next was to get rid of this threat.
The only way to get rid of him openly was to send him to war.
He wanted to die on the battlefield.
Ying Zheng was shocked.
"Qing."
For a moment, Ying Zheng did not know what to say. It was not until this moment that he realized how powerless he was in front of Lu Buwei.
The pride he had when he succeeded to the throne disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"I understand. Please be careful.”
Ying Zheng instructed.
He was sincere, and Zhao Mu could feel Ying Zheng's feelings.
As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Ying Zheng's impatient personality was his weakness. However, Zhao Mu was still willing to support him because he had one of his greatest strengths, and that was that he had never killed anyone who had helped him destroy the Six Nations.
Only Lord Chang Ping, Fan Yuqi, and the others betrayed him one after another. He had never betrayed the brave generals or civil officials who had risked their lives for him.
This was the biggest reason why Zhao Mu was willing to support the First Emperor.
This trait of the First Emperor was enough to cover up his shortcomings.
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. It's easy to make mistakes. Your Majesty, remember, our greatest advantage is that we're much younger than Lu Buwei.”
Zhao Mu bowed.
His words completely soothed the anxiety in Ying Zheng's heart. He nodded and said,""I understand."
Zhao Mu left Xianyang Palace.
At the same time, the news that he had entered Zhangtai Palace to meet Ying Zheng alone had also reached the ears of Lu Buwei, Marquis of Wenxin.
Under the candlelight, Lu Buwei's expression was indifferent.
His faint gaze seemed to be thinking of something.
The next day, a decree of the King of Qin was delivered to Ying Zheng's table, asking him to stamp the seal of the King of Qin.
Even though he was prepared for Zhao Mu's words, the king of Qin was still furious when he saw the token.
This was because the content of this holy decree was for Zhao Mu to lead 30,000 troops to attack Jinyang City of Zhao.
Ying Zheng was very familiar with Jinyang City, because Jinyang City had been conquered by the Qin army several times before, but was taken back by the State of Zhao.
Jinyang City is located on the north bank of Jinshui River at the northern end of Taiyuan Basin, and Jinyang City is built on the east side of Hanging Weng Mountain.
This city was once the capital of Zhao State. It was built by the founder of Zhao State, Zhao Jianzi's most trusted retainer, Dong An 'an, for Zhao Jianzi.
This city was very sturdy, and the people of Zhao were all fierce and respected Zhao.
During the Jin Dynasty, Zhao Xiangzi was besieged in Jinyang City by Uncle Zhi with the troops of Han and Wei. Uncle Zhi flooded Jinyang City and the people in the city changed their son.
Even at this point, the people of Jinyang City worked together and did not betray Zhao Xiangzi.
In the end, the Zhao, Wei, and Han families joined forces to destroy Uncle Zhi, divide the land of the Zhi family, and finally divide the Jin country.
Jinyang City could be said to be the prosperous land of Zhao.
Lu Buwei had sent Zhao Mu to lead 30,000 troops to attack Jinyang City. He was sending Zhao Mu to his death.
Ying Zheng was furious, but he thought of what Zhao Mu had said.
He thought of how much his father trusted Zhao Mu.
His trust in Zhao Mu had gained the upper hand.
He stamped the seal on the holy decree.
When Lu Buwei learned that Ying Zheng had stamped his seal, he was a little surprised. At the age of thirteen, he was at the peak of his arrogance, sitting on the throne of the King of Qin without any power.
Lu Buwei had long known that the King of Qin was dissatisfied, but he did not expect Ying Zheng to be able to suppress his temper.
This made Lu Buwei feel that Zhao Mu was an extraordinary person, because Ying Zheng's change was caused by his conversation with Zhao Mu last night.
"What a pity."
Lu Buwei murmured.
He had someone deliver the holy token to Zhao Mu's mansion.
Zhao Mu did not have any dissatisfaction. After receiving the holy order, he began to pack his things and prepare to attack Jinyang City.
Yu Tong helped Zhao Mu pack his things and put on his armor as he said,"Brother Mu, be careful."
"Don't worry," said Zhao Mu with a smile.
