Chapter 54 Ba Shang Banquet
When Ziying opened his eyes, the sun outside was already in the east, and the severe pain in his body reminded him of everything that happened yesterday.
Yang Hu committed regicide, Mo Chu pursued him, and Liu Bang and Xiang Yu came to the city.
"Han Tan?" Ziying endured the pain and stood up.
"Han Tan isn't here."
Caiwei's lazy voice sounded from under the bed. She had been taking care of Zi Ying last night until she was too sleepy to hold on anymore.
"The city of Xianyang was not lost, right?" Ziying was shocked.
"The walls built by my master kept the rebels at bay, so they couldn't attack them." Caiwei stood up, straightened the hair on her forehead, and said with a yawn.
Last night, Lingfen asked the imperial doctor to help check Ziying's body, and then ordered Caiwei to take care of her here. Caiwei was very reluctant, but Lingfen's words were an imperial edict to her, and she would never violate it.
Han Tan also wanted to take care of him, but Lingfen knew that he hadn't slept a wink the night before, so he wouldn't let him come no matter what.
"It's good if we don't fall. If we don't fall, we still have a chance..." Ziying breathed heavily in a low voice.
"Any chance?" Caiwei sneered, "The city wall was forged by my master, and you were rescued by my master from outside. Do you only have my chance to rely on my master for your chance?"
"There are also Han Tan, Zhao Cheng, Yang Chen, and Lu Matong." Ziying said softly.
Ziying thanked Lingfen from the bottom of his heart, but he just didn't want to give in in front of Caiwei.
"It's a wolf-hearted thing." Caiwei rolled her eyes at Ziying, "It's in vain that my master bothered so much about Qin's dragon veins."
"What dragon vein?" Ziying was puzzled.
"Jiujiu Mountain!" Caiwei said, "So much earth and stone for building the city wall was dug from Jiujiu Mountain. My master was afraid that the leveling of the mountain would affect the national destiny of the Qin Dynasty, so he asked the laborers to tear down the old city wall again.
It was filled according to the original Jiuwei Mountain!"
Ziying's heart warmed, and she didn't know how to thank Lingfen like this. In the past, Jiuwei Mountain had not been touched, but the Qin Dynasty still died. Lingfen did everything that could be considered for him.
Lingfen was also the only person around Ziying who came over on his own initiative. He still doesn't know the reason why Lingfen came over.
"The mountain is south of the mountain and the water is north of Yang. This city is in the south of Mount Jiuwei and north of the Wei River, so it is called Xianyang. I should be grateful to the master for not turning Xianyang into Shanyang." Ziying said with a smile, "I am thirsty, bring me some water.
"
"Forget it if you die of thirst!" Caiwei said angrily and rushed out the door.
Ziying moved step by step and finally came across the bronze cups on the table. The cups were already filled with water.
"Little girl, you are quite attentive." Ziying murmured.
Ziying's throat was dry and she drank water vigorously. Lingfen walked in with a solemn expression.
Ziying was a little nervous. Lingfen couldn't hear those words and misunderstood him, right?
"It's really outrageous. We have to ask King Qin to get out of bed himself," Lingfen said.
Ziying breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, I just want to exercise more."
Lingfen helped Ziying sit on the bed. When Lingfen wanted to stand up, Ziying forced him down beside the bed.
"Master, there is no need to be polite, you deserve this." Ziying said in a sincere tone.
"I beg your pardon for overstepping my bounds." Lingfen was somewhat pleased. With Ziying's words, everything he had done was worth it.
"Master, what's going on outside Xianyang City?" Ziying felt uneasy. Usually he admired Xiang Yu and would rather kill himself than Wujiang River. Now, standing opposite Xiang Yu, he only thought Xiang Yu was a butcher.
"Xiang Yu did not attack the city yesterday. Three hundred thousand troops were stationed in Bashang." Lingfen replied.
"Bashang? Not Hongmen?" Ziying was startled.
Lingfen didn't understand what Ziying meant, "Ba goes up to the south to connect Yanqi and south to Wu and Chu. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Oh, there's nothing wrong. I'm just asking casually." Only then did Ziying realize that he valued existing history too much and mistakenly thought that everything must be based on history.
Xiang Yu entered the customs very late in the past, so he naturally chose Hongmen, which was far away from Xianyang. He had already arrived at the foot of Xianyang City yesterday, so there was no reason to choose Hongmen instead of leaving Ba Shang.
Lingfen nodded, "Your Majesty also has a clever plan. Liu Bang's army is at Hongmen at the moment. Hongmen is adjacent to Lishan Mountain in the north and the Weishui River in the south is also a good place to garrison troops."
The places where the two protagonists of the Hongmen Banquet were garrisoned were completely reversed. If they had dinner again, it would not be the Hongmen Banquet, but the Bashang Banquet.
"So Zhang Han is also in Ba?" Ziying sighed.
Zhang Han could say those words yesterday, and Ziying wanted to shoot him on the spot. Looking back on Zhang Han's experience now, he was actually a poor person.
Originally, Zhang Han was just a young man who was one of the nine ministers. He only needed to manage some items of the royal family and was not stained with the blood of the battlefield. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled, the Meng brothers had been killed, and no commander could be found. Zhang Han was killed by Li Si
Pushed to the front.
At that time, it was the climax of the Dazexiang Uprising. Zhang Han did not have too much military power, so he had no choice but to send the prisoners into the army to meet his urgent needs.
After that, he went all the way to Mianchi to kill General Chen Sheng and Zhou Wen. Linji killed the resurrected King of Qi Tian Dan, forcing Wei King Wei Jiu to commit suicide. He also beheaded Xiang Liang in Dingtao, which made him famous for a while.
Zhao Gao took power, Zhang Han's Bole Lisi was cut in half, and Hu Hai sent an envoy to question Zhang Han. After Julu's defeat, Qin had no place for him to stand, so he had no choice but to commit suicide except surrender.
"No, according to the scouts, Zhang Han went to Liu Bang's army yesterday." Lingfen said, "I don't know what the purpose is."
Ziying thought for a while and smiled bitterly and said, "Xiang Yu suspected that I was colluding with Liu Bang, so he sent an envoy to ask questions. Although Zhang Han said he was on the side of the Chu army yesterday, his expression was hesitant. It is estimated that Zhang Han took the initiative to act as an envoy in order to relieve Fan Zeng
They doubt him. In a desperate situation, the only option is to surrender. After surrendering, he is still not trusted."
"I heard that after Zhang Han surrendered, his wife and children were executed by the Qin Dynasty. Is this true?" Lingfen asked suddenly.
"That was Hu Hai's doing. It has nothing to do with me. Master, please don't misunderstand." Ziying explained hurriedly.
At Lantian Pass, Yang Hu linked Hu Hai's actions to him, and it was a big misfortune for Ziying to succeed Hu Hai.
"I have no misunderstanding. I just feel sorry for Zhang Han's family." Lingfen said. "If Zhang Han returns to Da Qin, will the king accept him?"
"this..."
Ziying hesitated. Two hundred thousand soldiers of the Qin Dynasty died outside, and only Zhang Han came back. If he forgives Zhang Han, I am afraid that the soldiers guarding the city will have resentment in their hearts.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, something serious has happened!"
