Chapter 117
At that moment, he finally understood the real reason why Wang Wang Jian was unwilling to lead the troops!
What Han Xin!
Wang Wang Jian was not afraid of him at all!
The first worry was simply an excuse!
Being old was also an excuse!
What he was truly worried about was this!
Because, right now, among all his sons, Ying Su was the most outstanding.
Even if he captured Ying Su now, so what?
In the future, it was very likely that he would pass the throne to Ying Su!
And while he was alive, Ying Su would not do anything to the Wang family!
But what about after he died?
Ying Zheng frowned deeply. At this moment, even he had to admire Wang Wang Jian’s deep schemes and profound city-like nature!
He pondered for a long time and said to Wang Wang Jian: "Regardless of who the throne is passed to in the future, I will issue an edict that no matter who becomes emperor, they must not treat the Wang family poorly. If they treat the Wang family poorly, what do you think?"
"What?"
Once these words were spoken, Wang Wang Jian was shocked, and then hurriedly kowtowed: "This subject thanks the Emperor!"
But after thanking him, he continued to cough and shake his head: "I am grateful for the Emperor’s care, but my body is truly powerless!"
He said this while continuing to cough frantically!
And when this sentence was spoken, Ying Zheng was furious. What did old Wang Wang Jian mean by this?
Was he still not satisfied?
Did he want something else?
Ying Zheng roared: "I will give you a secret edict. After I die, if the new emperor dares to touch the Wang family in the slightest, the Wang family can raise an army to overthrow the new emperor and choose another!"
He spoke, and as soon as these words were out, Wang Wang Jian was so scared he collapsed on the ground, kowtowing fiercely to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, this secret edict must never be issued. Even if it were issued, I would destroy it immediately! Let it be as if this secret edict never existed!"
Ying Zheng’s gaze was cold: "Then what do you want?"
Wang Wang Jian’s eyebrows were tightly knit, and finally, he kowtowed to Ying Zheng:
"If the First Emperor returns to the throne, Wang Wang Jian dares to suggest letting the Sixth Young Master marry Wang Lan!"
"What?"
Once these words were spoken, Ying Zheng was stunned!
At that moment, he looked at Wang Wang Jian with a face full of shock and disbelief!
At this moment, he really couldn't help but praise him as an old fox!
Yes!
This really was an old fox!
What was the use of leaving a will for future emperors?
Each emperor has their own power!
After the emperor dies, power just drifts away with the wind!
What will of the late emperor? It’s just a piece of waste paper. It’s useful when they acknowledge it, and useless when they don't!
For example, his own father, Ying Ying Yiren, had left a will for Lu Buwei to return power to him after he came of age!
But... Lu Buwei dragged him until he was twenty-two before agreeing to let him perform the capping ceremony!
And even then, it was only because he had made many preparations in advance that he was able to regain power!
Therefore, the will of the late emperor is really just bullshit!
And leaving a secret edict for the Wang family is also nonsense!
If he dared to give Wang Wang Jian this secret edict, would Wang Wang Jian dare to accept it?
If he accepted it now, he wouldn't even have to wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne; he would have to die!
Being too meritorious already threatened the master!
Being too meritorious and having so much power is forcing the emperor to kill!
He understood this logic, and old Wang Wang Jian understood it too.
Therefore, he wouldn't dare to accept this secret edict even if it killed him!
And letting Ying Su marry Wang Lan is truly a stroke of genius!
After you, Ying Su, ascend the throne, don't you say that I, Wang Wang Jian, beat you back then?
But I’ve even married my precious granddaughter to you, what else are you dissatisfied with?
This grudge is directly resolved!
I can't guarantee anything else, but at least, while Wang Lan is alive, Ying Su definitely wouldn't dare to touch the Wang family!
Wait... was old Wang Wang Jian so sure that he would pass the throne to Ying Su?
Had he taken a side so early?
Ying Zheng pondered, but soon understood!
This wasn't taking a side at all!
It was buying peace!
Anyway, he, Wang Wang Jian, had only offended the Sixth Young Master!
If there was going to be targeting, only Ying Su would possibly target him!
As for the other young masters?
Their succession would have no impact on Wang Wang Jian or the Wang family descendants at all!
"Brilliant!"
"Truly brilliant!"
Ying Zheng’s gaze brightened.
The more he looked at Wang Wang Jian, the more he liked him!
Finally, he helped Wang Wang Jian up and said: "In that case, can you lead the troops to attack the rebellious son?"
Wang Wang Jian was full of spirit: "I will certainly do my best!"
He called out.
At that moment, Ying Zheng was extremely satisfied.
Then, he said to Wang Wang Jian: "Go, prepare to attack Xianyanggong!"
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand!
But Wang Wang Jian did not leave immediately, instead saying to Ying Zheng: "Since Li Li Yuanba is involved in this battle, Xiang Yu’s army will definitely be defeated!"
"Even, this battle might not take two months!"
"It might end in a month, or even half a month!"
"Therefore, I think we should take precautions!"
"Take precautions? What do you mean?"
Ying Zheng was puzzled.
Wang Wang Jian bowed:
"Immediately send people to set an ambush on the road. If Li Li Yuanba returns, find a way to restrain him first. Even if we can't take him down, we must leave preparation time for attacking Xianyanggong!"
"Your Majesty, you should quickly invite the people from the Yin-Yang School!"
Wang Wang Jian called out.
And when these words were spoken, even Ying Zheng had to praise it as wonderful!
Afterwards, without any delay, he directly had Zhao Gao invite the Shao Mount Siming!
This was a helper he had specifically invited to deal with Li Li Yuanba!
He didn't expect it to come in handy now!
And with the Shao Mount Siming dragging Li Li Yuanba down, how could Ying Su not be defeated?
At that moment, Ying Zheng’s gaze was like lightning!
The throne!
The throne!
This long-awaited throne was finally going to be returned!
