Chapter 179: The Plan to Destroy Chu (Please give me a monthly ticket at the end of the month!)
"Retreat!"

Today's morning court session began with a dozen Chu officials, under the orders of Lord Changping, launching an attack on Tianxuan in order to avenge Lord Changping's humiliation. Afterwards, they discussed the governance and garrison of the newly conquered Han, Zhao, and Wei. After everything was settled, the Minister of the Chariot House, Zhao Gao, announced the end of the court session in a hoarse voice.

"Farewell, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty Live Long and Long!"

The royal palace was once again filled with cheers, and all the ministers bowed to bid farewell to Zheng Ge.

After Zheng Ge left under the escort of Gai Nie, Zhao Gao and others, all the ministers dispersed. All eyes with mixed emotions of contempt, disdain, and mockery fell on Tian Xuan.

"This is the result of offending someone you shouldn't offend!"

"At such a young age, he had already climbed to the eighth-level official position. He should have had a bright future, but now he has been demoted to the sixth-level official position. What a pity!"

"Ms. Mi Lian is a beauty, how dare this boy look down on her!"

……

As the ministers dispersed, the harsh and sarcastic words remained in the hall, lingering in the air.

[A bunch of idiots! 】

The Chu faction, led by Changping Jun Xiong Qi, seized on the fact that Tianxuan did not return to Xianyang in time to report after suppressing the rebellion in Yingchuan County, and pursued him relentlessly. Although, as Tianxuan expected, Zhengge did not do anything to him, his military rank of the eighth level Gongcheng was demoted to the sixth level Guandafu.

The harsh words echoing in his ears did not cause any emotional fluctuations in Tianxuan. On the contrary, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, showing only disdain for these people.

Snapped!
As ripples appeared in his heart, Tianxuan walked out of the hall. Suddenly, a very familiar person came to his side and slapped Tianxuan on the shoulder.

"Eldest Young Master!"

Tianxuan turned around and saw the handsome face of Prince Fusu.

"Brother Tianxuan," although Tianxuan refused to marry his cousin, Fusu looked at Tianxuan with a look of worry and pity besides a hint of anger. Seeing Tianxuan looking back at him, the eldest son of Qin said quickly, "I have prepared the gifts. After leaving the palace, you will follow me to the prime minister's residence to apologize to your uncle."

[When did I promise you that I would apologize to Changping Jun? ]

Although Tianxuan knew that Fusu made this arrangement for his own good, and didn't want him to have too much trouble with Changping Jun, he still felt a little unhappy about Fusu's self-willed decision. Immediately, Tianxuan looked at Fusu with a strange look in his eyes.

"I know my uncle. As long as you sincerely apologize, are willing to marry cousin Mi Lian, and promise not to have another wife, my uncle will definitely forgive you!"

Fusu didn't notice Tianxuan's expression and just kept talking to himself.

"Young Master, wait a minute!" Tian Xuan couldn't stand it anymore and raised his hand to stop Fusu. "May I ask, what does 'never have two wives' mean?"

Fusu said sternly, "Of course, the position of your principal wife will be left to cousin Mi Lian. As for the woman of the Yin-Yang family, she will be a concubine! As long as you don't do anything to favor your concubine over your wife, then it will be fine."

Although the Yin-Yang School was working for the Qin State at this time, no one, including the highest leader of the Yin-Yang School, Donghuang Taiyi, had obtained a formal official position, let alone becoming the left and right protectors of the Qin State. Most people did not take the Yin-Yang School seriously and regarded them as alchemists and witches.

Fusu is no exception!

"Master, I appreciate your kindness," Tian Xuan said calmly, "but I am of humble status, and Mi Lian is of too high a status. If I marry her, I'm afraid my life won't be so easy. Besides, I'm not interested in getting married too early!"

"Brother Tianxuan, you...you are really unreasonable!"

Fusu had never expected that he would be rejected by Tianxuan even though he personally came forward to mediate. For a moment, even though the eldest son of Qin was a good-tempered man, he still cursed angrily. Then, Fusu, who was irritated by Tianxuan, swung his sleeves fiercely and walked away.

[Master Fusu, you are a good person with good talents. Unfortunately, you are too cunning. This is why you were defeated by Zhao Gao and Hu Hai!]

Looking at Fusu's receding back, Tianxuan recalled all the interactions he had with Fusu since he met him, and this thought came to his mind. "General Tian, ​​the king invites you."

In the time it took to say a few words, most of the officials had left. In a sense, Tianxuan was the last one to leave. Just as Tianxuan was about to leave, a slightly bloated eunuch suddenly ran over, leaned close to Tianxuan's ear, and whispered.

"lead the way!"

Tianxuan had been prepared to sit on the bench for a while, waiting for Changping Jun's betrayal, and flirting with the women of the Yin-Yang family during his free time. Unexpectedly, Zheng Ge suddenly summoned him, which made Tianxuan's eyes flash with surprise from the bottom of his heart, and he was puzzled, and stuffed a small piece of silver into the eunuch's hand.

…………

Side hall.

"General Wang Jian, how many troops do you think it would take to destroy Chu?"

When Tianxuan met Zhengge under the guidance of the fat eunuch, the hall was filled with the atmosphere of war and killing.

Veteran general Wang Jian, general Meng Wu, general Yang Duanhe, general Li Xin and others, all wearing armor, were scattered in the side hall that was several meters long and wide. Sitting on the throne at the end of the side hall, Zheng Ge took off his cumbersome court clothes, put on a light casual dress, and looked down at the generals.

When Tianxuan stepped into the side hall and knelt down to pay his respects to Zhengge, Zhengge was asking Qin's first general, Wang Jian, about the troops needed to destroy Chu.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, to destroy Chu, we must have an army of 600,000!"

Faced with Zheng Ge's question, Wang Jian silently calculated and gave a number that was enough to scare people to death.

hiss!
As the number "six hundred thousand" came out, there was a sound of people gasping in shock in the hall, and everyone, including Zheng Ge, had a look of horror on their faces.

Six hundred thousand troops!
The last time Qin deployed this number of troops was the Battle of Changping.

Before Wang Jian, the first general of Qin State: Bai Qi, Marquis of Wu'an, took advantage of the mountains and rivers and defeated Zhao State's 450,000 troops with an army of 600,000. Zhao State, which had risen since King Wuling of Zhao introduced the Hu clothing and horse riding, was defeated and could no longer compete with Qin State. Even if Qin State had all its troops, it would probably not exceed one million.

Wang Jian asked for 600,000 troops at one time, which was equivalent to holding the Qin army in his hands.

[Six hundred thousand? I don’t think it’s too much!]

Tianxuan, who was kneeling on the ground, had mixed thoughts in his mind as others gasped.

"Burning the boats and burning the boats, the 120 Qin passes will eventually belong to Chu; sleeping on firewood and tasting gall, 3,000 Yue soldiers can swallow Wu!" Wang Jian asked for 600,000 troops, which was not too much, and was even a very conservative number. Tianxuan looked solemn, and his eyes were shining.

"Tian Xuanzi, get up!"

After Zheng Ge was shocked, he noticed Tianxuan kneeling there and gave an order casually.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Tianxuan stood up in response and quite consciously came to the back of the generals.

"Your Majesty, I believe that only 200,000 troops are needed to destroy Chu!" As soon as Tianxuan joined the army, General Li Xin stood up and confidently volunteered to Zheng Ge.
