Chapter 556: The Man Who Subverted the Country


Zhang Yi was a native of Anyi in the Wei State, a descendant of the nobles of the Wei State, and a famous strategist, diplomat and strategist during the Warring States Period.

He left Guigu with Su Qin, Sun Bin, Pang Juan and other divisions.

Su Qin once used the art of uniting vertically to obtain the seals of the six kingdoms, while Zhang Yi pioneered the diplomatic strategy of uniting horizontally to lobby for entry into Qin.

He was trusted by King Huiwen of Qin at that time and worshiped him as prime minister.

Later, Zhang Yi sent envoys to lobby the vassal states.

Using "horizontal" to defeat "vertical" caused all countries to change from uniting vertically to resist Qin to uniting horizontally and supporting Qin.

Zhang Yi was therefore named Lord Wu Xin by the King of Qin.

It can be said that Zhang Yi played an extremely important role in the entire Warring States Period, and he accomplished countless great things.

Even Qu Yuan can be said to have died indirectly at the hands of Zhang Yi.

One of the allusions I appreciate about Zhang Yi is that he defeated the six counties of Chu State with only his words and words, without using a single soldier.

In the fourteenth year of King Huiwen of Qin, the State of Qin threatened the State of Chu.

It wanted to obtain the land in central Guizhou and exchanged it for the land outside Wuguan.

However, as we all know, how can central Guizhou be compared with the land outside Wuguan?

What's more, the King of Qin just drew a Just a pie The King of Chu's attitude at that time was very clear, that is, he was unwilling to exchange land, but as long as he got Zhang Yi, he was willing to give up the central Guizhou area.

At that time, Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan could be said to be the two arms of the King of Qin.

Not to mention the land, the King of Qin did not have to change even if they raised the entire country's troops, but at this time Zhang Yi took the initiative to request to go to Chu.

King Qin Hui was naturally very worried at that time, because King Chu was very angry at Zhang Yi for breaking his promise to give Shang the land.

This was obviously just reckless revenge, and the result was to kill Zhang Yi and then be quick.

Zhang Yi told the King of Qin at that time: "Our Qin State is strong, but the Chu State is weak.

I have a very close relationship with Jin Shang, the official of the Chu State.

I asked Jin Shang to flatter Zheng Xiu, the wife of the Chu State, and the King of Chu listened to all Zheng Xiu's words. .

Besides, I am sent as an envoy to the State of Chu on the orders of the King.

How dare the King of Chu kill me?

If he kills me and obtains the land in central Guizhou for the State of Qin, it will be considered a worthy death for me."

So the final result was that Zhang Yi went to Chu as an envoy, and King Huai of Chu imprisoned Zhang Yi as soon as he arrived, saying that he would kill Zhang Yi.

Jin Shang immediately said to Zheng Xiu, the wife of Chu State at that time: "Do you know that you will be despised by the king?"

Zheng Xiu naturally didn't understand.

Her background was not very good, and what she feared most was being abandoned by the King of Chu, so she hurriedly asked for help.

Seeing that Zheng Xiu had taken the bait, Jin Shang told her what Zhang Yi had said before coming to Chu State, which meant that King Qin liked Zhang Yi very much and planned to rescue him from prison, and now he would use Yong Liu The land of several counties was bribed to the State of Chu, and a beautiful woman was given to the King of Chu, and a woman from the palace who was good at singing was used as a dowry.

The King of Chu valued land and would definitely agree to Qin's conditions.

And the beauties of our Qin State will definitely be favored by the King of Chu.

If this happens, Zheng Xiu will be despised.

It is better to intercede for Zhang Yi and take the initiative to release him.

This definitely frightened Zheng Xiu, so this woman appealed to the King of Chu every night: "As ministers, each serves his country.

Now that the land has not been handed over to Qin, King Qin sent Zhang Yi.

It is obvious that Qin's respect for the king has reached the extreme.

The king is about to kill Zhang Yi before he returns the favor.

King Qin will definitely send troops to attack Chu.

I request that we, mother and son, be moved to the south of the Yangtze River.

Don't let Qin be like a fish.

Bullying and killing.”

King Huai of Chu was first afraid of King Qin's invasion, but he really loved Zheng Xiu, so he had no choice but to let Zhang Yi go.

After Zhang Yi returned to the country, the King of Chu had no choice but to exchange land.

Using this as a springboard, Zhang Yi used Zheng Xiu as a starting point to defeat the six counties of Chu without spending a single soldier, and only took the capital.

But although I personally admire plotters like Zhang Yi and Guo Jia, what I don't understand is why Fusu is afraid of Zhang Yi.

You know, when Zhang Yi died, Ying Zheng was not even born.

After listening to my words, Fusu just laughed softly and shook his head.

"What do you mean?

You mean Ying Zheng has met Zhang Yi?"

I widened my eyes and was a little surprised.

Fusu shook his head, looked at me and said: "As you said, my father was not born when Zhang Yi died.

However, Zhang Yi did not die in 310 as recorded in the history books.

To be more precise, when did he die?

Yes, even my father doesn’t know.”

I closed my mouth and looked at Fusu quietly.

"Back then in Wei State, Zhang Yi actually just faked his death.

Although King Qin Wu didn't like Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan were the signboards of Qin State at that time.

If you lose anyone, you can't lose them two.

But Zhang Yi did disappear at that time .

But my father told me that after Zhang Yi died in the State of Wei, he lived in the State of Qin for several decades.

To be precise, the time of Zhang Yi's death was only more than ten years before my father was born. " Fusu pursed his lips, looked at me and said solemnly.

Xiahou Qingyi frowned: "When Qin Shihuang was in power, Lu Buwei and Li Si had countless capable people.

And you are well versed in politics, so you have no reason to be afraid of a dead man."

Fusu nodded his eyebrows and said seriously: "The world has underestimated my brother, just like the world has underestimated Zhang Yi.

My father said that Zhang Yi is the only man who can overthrow the Qin Dynasty with one person." .

But I don’t know what he is holding in his hand.”

Fusu shook his head.

"Overthrow the Qin Dynasty, are you kidding me?"

I smiled, a bitter smile.

Fusu shook his head: "You may not understand what I am saying now, but what I want to tell you is that if my father really moved Zhang Yi's coffin from Taiyuan here, you should be careful."

Fusu raised his head, looked at the huge tomb door in front of him that was as red as a city gate, and murmured softly.

I nodded slowly and followed his gaze.

Just behind the stone steps in front of us, there was a gate.

The gate was more than ten meters high and several meters wide.

The door was painted with vermilion paint, which looked particularly special.

It's as bright as blood, and there's a strange beast on the door that looks like a tiger or a wolf, with two horns on its head, flames on its feet, and a tail like an ox.

It has cloud-like patterns on its body, and a snow-white bead spits out from the inside. .

The door was ajar at this time.

There was this gap.

It had obviously been opened by someone a long time ago.

I squinted my eyes.

As expected, Lin Aocang and his group had already walked in front of us.

I didn’t want to wait for anyone to do it.

He got there first, said hello, and walked cautiously towards the vermilion door.

The gap in the door is not small, and we can easily get through without opening it ourselves.

Because Gu Xinlie was injured, he had no choice but to leave the work of the advance team to me.

I squinted my eyes, bent down and got in through the gap in the door, and rolled to the side.

This is an extremely wide underground palace.

I don't know whether this is the fourth floor or we have already reached the fifth floor. , all in all, this place neither looks like a tomb nor a palace of Hades.

There are a row of tall bronze figurines standing on both sides, all of them wearing armor and holding halberds.

Because I met those sharp warriors before, I was still a little frightened by these things, so I couldn't help but lean to one side.

The place where I was at this time was a platform, and not far away was a downward step.

It was pitch black below the step, and I could no longer see that far.

Seeing that there was no danger, I stretched out my hand and waved, indicating that Gu Xinlie and the others could come in.

After Gu Xinlie and the others came in, I twisted my neck, slowly crouched down, holding the paratrooper knife in my hand, and slowly walked towards the steps.

There was no sound in the dark underground palace.

It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

I held my breath and subconsciously slowed down my steps.

Lin Aocang is different from the Lin Qing I met at the Tomb of Marquis Wu before.

This man is the type of man with a smile but a tiger with a soft heart.

He may be very strong in the front, but he is still good at attacking the heart.

In short, he likes to play with the knives.

I always find it troublesome to deal with people like this.

In this underground palace, there are monsters like Dugu Yiren and Wu Shishi around him, so I have to be careful.

There was a blanket woven from animal fur on the top of the steps.

I squinted my eyes and walked down slowly.

The moment I just walked away, I felt a faint clicking sound suddenly coming from in front of me, like It's like the sound you make when you step on thin ice.

I frowned slightly and continued to move forward for dozens of steps.

Suddenly, there was another faint clicking sound.

I stopped and slowly stood up straight.

Judging from my experience, this sound is definitely not a sound that means nothing.

Usually when I am taking chances, something strange will definitely happen.

I stopped, raised my head and looked back and forth with the search light above my head.

There were criss-crossing beams on the roof of the tomb, which were slightly decayed.

I squinted my eyes and suddenly found that there seemed to be a person deep in these rotten trees.

The red dot, that red dot looked extremely eye-catching among the entire black beam.

It was not a dark red that matched the black, but a very eye-catching bright red, just like blood flowing on a black iron piece, flowing hot, and then slowly spreading in all directions without any trace.

"What is that?"

Gu Xinlie frowned.

"Did you see it too?"

I turned around and asked.

Xiahou Qingyi said: "How can you not see such an obvious thing?

I'm just a little strange.

What is that thing?"

"It seems like a piece of clothing or something."

I squinted my eyes, looked at Fusu who was also looking up at the beam, and couldn't help but murmur softly: "Red robe."

"Lin Bei, get down" At this moment, Gu Xinlie's eyes widened and he yelled at me
