Chapter 783 Qin's Choice
When Wei focused its main energy on Qi, Qin, which was plundered by the Wei army, still did not dare to be careless.
Even though Qin Gong Ying Xun was ill, he summoned all his ministers to discuss matters before the Wei army entered Zheng State and after the war between Wei and Zheng and Qi broke out.
Ying Xun's condition has been very bad recently. Qin State was defeated by him, which not only caused him to suffer from illness, but also suffered from tremendous mental pressure.
The defeat of the Southern Wu Kingdom shocked Ying Xun even more, and this world made him increasingly unable to understand.
In the past, when countries fought and their destruction were common, but when did a great country be threatened with the destruction of its country?
The changes in the times made Ying Xun unable to accept and more difficult to adapt to, so that he felt a strong sense of insecurity.
Sitting on the couch, Ying Xun looked at the important officials in the court standing bent. First, he asked: "Recently, the Wei people have not made any noise on both sides of the Wei River, right?"
This is Ying Xun's most critical issue. Although he also asked to report these things to him every day, he still had to discuss them with the court officials.
The person responsible for defending the Wei army was Yingqi. At this time, he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, my army is stationed in the Wei River, so you have no worries about this!"
But in fact, only the sadness can be understood in the win. Although the Wei people did not make big moves, the small-scale harassment continued to disappear, which made people very annoyed.
Ying Xun nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm doing my business!"
This is an affirmation of the Ying Prize. Ying Xun has already designated the Ying Prize as the successor, and the poop is so that he can be favored by the court officials. Is it a great benefit to Ying Prize?
Then, Ying Xun mentioned the important matter this time, and only heard him say: "Recently, the Wei army has entered Zheng State directly, I believe you all know it!"
The court officials all nodded and said, "What do you think is the result of this battle?"
What was the result?... When hearing this question, the court officials had only one answer, either Wei or Qi.
In the eyes of most people, the Wei people may be more likely to win because they have already suffered from Wei phobia.
Seeing that everyone was not talking, Ying Xun said, "Since Tian Yuwen succeeded to the throne, the office of Qi has been alienated from the aristocratic clans. The power of one country is consumed by 50% and has made little achievements over the years!"
"In this battle, in my opinion, Qi State is probably going to be defeated again!" Ying Xun said sadly.
At that time, Qi and Qin were old partners in the fight against Wei. They had worked closely together for many years, leaving Wei without any chance to go south.
When Ying Xun remembered that time, he missed Tian Yuwen very much, which made him hate him more and more.
Tian Yuwen was the Duke of Qi who was forced to take office. Not only did he lack prestige, but he was also immature and thought about subduing the aristocratic races in China. In Ying Xun's opinion, it was extremely stupid.
But Tian Yuwen did such a stupid thing!
Ying Ju also agreed at this time: "You are the one who knows how to understand. Tian Yuwen is concerned about his work, and his will is not strong, and he will not be able to accomplish great things!"
But at this time, Ying Xun's purpose was not to discuss the matter of Qi, so he just changed the subject and said: "This year, Qin State also suffered a great defeat, and I was also wondering why there would be such a great defeat!"
"Are the Wei people too powerful? Or are our army weak, insufficient armor, poor military equipment, and insufficient food and supplies?"
The king asked for guilt, but the ministers in the room were so scared that they all knelt down and said, "My dear are guilty!"
The monarch will definitely not be guilty, so the crime that caused the failure of the war can only be borne by these ministers.
And confessing guilty is not just a saying, but these ministers are still a little worried that the king will use this matter to deal with some of them.
"What I just said is the reason for our defeat, but I feel that it is more than that!" Ying Xun said calmly.
The ministers were even more frightened at this time, so they heard them say unanimously: "I am ignorant, please teach you!"
As Ying Qiao, who was kneeling on the ground, was very puzzled at this time, but he knew that something must have happened.
At this time, Ying Xun heard: "I know that although you all kneel in front of me, you are divided into two camps in private and attack each other constantly!"
Speaking of this, Ying Xun's calm tone disappeared, and then he heard him ask with anger: "Even if you don't forget to fight in the war with Wei State, do you say... are you responsible?"
These words scared the ministers in the room to tremble, forming cliques and defeating the war was a crime that no one could afford.
Wei Changtian died on the battlefield, and no one has taken the responsibility for defeat until now... Does the monarch want to kill someone to vent his anger at this time?
Everyone present was a wise man, and knew that he could not refuse the charge, so he kowtowed and said, "I am guilty!"
Including Ying Ke himself, after hearing what his father said, he felt a little nervous. After all, he also participated in a lot of party disputes at the beginning.
But in fact, Ying Xun did not have the intention to kill at this time, and only heard him say, "You are guilty, and it is not enough to die ten times!"
"Qin State is not just my own people. If you ignore the overall situation of the country for your own selfish interests, you will have to be buried with you even if you are defeated in Qin State!" Ying Xun almost pointed at these people and was also his thoughts at this moment.
The purpose of his words was not to punish someone, but to awaken these people, who were one with the fate of Qin.
After being told by the king, everyone here fell back into their stomachs, but at this time they all showed regret.
The Prime Minister cried even more: "I am guilty!"
Looking at the performances of these people below, some of them sincerely regretted, but some of them were also acting.
Ying Xun didn't want to distinguish clearly, so he sighed and said, "Tian Yuwen and the aristocratic clan are separated and will suffer defeat... And if our Qin State is not united, we may be devastated!"
It was time to express your determination, and the Prime Minister said passionately: "I will not dare to make this mistake again after death. I must do my best to protect the Qin country's country!"
The ministers below all followed suit. After the king's attack, there would be no more conflicts in a short period of time.
Ying Xun nodded. He could only think about the better, hoping that after the people below could correct the situation, Qin State could survive this difficulty.
After completing this matter, Ying Xun had a second major event to announce, and he only heard him solemnly say: "I think twice and think twice. In order to protect the safety of the country, I want to temporarily move the imperial court to Yongdu!"
This is definitely another big bomb. Should the monarch move the capital?
Having a question in his heart, the Prime Minister asked first: "Your Majesty wants to move the capital?"
The so-called Yongdu is also the western capital of Qin, and it was the capital of Qin when it was not yet prosperous.
Hearing this question, Ying Xun replied: "Just move the imperial court to Yongdu, the Qin Dynasty still regards Xianyang as its capital!"
Perhaps in order to convince the ministers below, Ying Xun continued: "Now that the Wei army has deployed troops in the Wei River and the imperial court is stationed in Xianyang, there is danger of overthrow. I have to come up with this worst!"
Among the ministers below, those from the Eastern Group must have opposed the movement of the capital, because moving the capital means giving up the northern land of Fufeng, which is unacceptable because their fiefdoms are all in these places.
It is precisely because of understanding these things that Ying Xun said that Xianyang is still the capital, with the purpose of stabilizing these people.
After Ying Xun's attack, those who wanted to object could not say anything at this time.
Yingqi, who was standing aside, was also shocked in his heart. The major event of moving the capital did not reveal any wind.
In fact, Ying Jue himself also opposed the movement of the capital, because this meant that Qin's strategic retreat was a big blow to the morale of the front line.
But Ying Xun's words are also very reasonable. Xianyang, which has lost its strategic depth, is no longer suitable as a capital.
No one objected at this time, but Ying Xun knew that these people must have complaints in their hearts, but he could not convince everyone because he could not satisfy everyone's interest demands.
After sighing, Ying Xun continued: "It will be a matter of time before defeating Qi and Zheng will be destroyed by Wei Wuji. If I, Qin, did not prepare early, I, would be really powerless to make the world!"
Everyone's hearts trembled when they heard this. According to Wei Wuji's ruthlessness, it was really possible to destroy Zheng State.
If Zheng State is destroyed again, there will be no small country in the west of Wei State to serve as a buffer, and Qin State will become the most suitable target of attack.
Ying Ju was quite sad at this time. Why can't the Qin Dynasty be protected every day?
