Lu Buwei was puzzled and felt a little undecided. Although he was somewhat talented and learned, his character was always a little indecisive and he was also suspicious by nature. If Ying Zheng thundered and shouted at him over the gift-giving incident from various countries, he would be the opposite.

He took it for granted, but now that Ying Zheng had done the opposite, he was a little at a loss. He went back to his house and summoned a few diners that he usually used. After discussing it for most of the night, he didn't come up with any ideas.

There were quite a few bold people who came up with the idea of ​​deposing the King of Qin and letting Lu Buwei take the throne. As soon as they mentioned this, they were rejected by Lu Buwei.

Although it is good to be the King of Qin, he also knows his identity. It is impossible for the Ying clan to let him become the king. Although he is powerful now, his foundation is not deep. If he really does this, it is estimated that there will be a turmoil in the Qin State.

Unfortunately, the wealth he spent half his life to earn will become nothing in the blink of an eye. Now he is already inferior to one person and more than ten thousand people, not to mention that the person who is weighing on him is just a superficial show. Lu Buwei naturally

I don't want to take risks anymore for something illusory.

Ying Zheng didn't know that Lu Buwei couldn't sleep all night. Instead, he handed in the sign and entered the palace early the next day. He didn't treat the Qin Palace like the back courtyard of his house like usual, coming and leaving whenever he wanted. It's rare for him to understand.

After obeying the rules, when Ying Zheng allowed Zhao Gao to put on his clothes, he knew that it was his uncharacteristic behavior yesterday that made him feel a little uneasy. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He was silent for a long time before he said:

"The Prime Minister gave you a big gift yesterday?"

Zhao Gaozheng took a jade belt and tied it around his waist. When he heard Ying Zheng's question, his hands trembled. The belt made of jade pieces fell to the ground, with a crisp sound, and several jade pieces among them fell to the ground.

It cracked open, Zhao Gao's face turned pale, he kneeled on the ground subconsciously, his forehead touched the cold ground, and he said in a trembling voice: "The slave is guilty."

The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth curved slightly, and he naturally saw the jade belt on the ground. When he raised his head, his face had returned to coldness. He ordered someone to take out a belt again, and tied it in a slow and orderly manner. Zhao Gao was still crawling.

On the ground, he said: "Since you are guilty, then go down and get the ten pieces. If you do it again, you will not be forgiven!" I don't know if he is talking about Zhao Gao's crime of accepting things privately, or that he broke his jade belt.

.

Zhao Gao kept saying thank you, but his back was wet with cold sweat. He kowtowed respectfully a few times, then stood up, apologized, and walked out seriously. The famous board-beating in the palace

It's not small, there are various methods in it, which can torture people to both pain and death. It depends on whether the master wants the palace man to die or live. Zhao Gao has performed well in the past few years, although in his heart

He hates Ying Zheng, and he doesn't want Zhao Gao's life, but suffering is unavoidable. Those who use the board are all very accustomed to figuring out what their superiors want and know what to do, so there is no need for Ying Zheng to give any more orders.

If you go down, you will naturally know the importance.

Lu Buwei was trembling with fear. He thought that Ying Zheng had discovered many things about him and deliberately warned him about gifting treasures to beauties. Unexpectedly, when he saw Ying Zheng in front of him, he smiled and looked extremely respectful.

When he received a false alarm, he only frightened himself, so after giving Ying Zheng a few perfunctory words, he returned to his usual self, said goodbye to Ying Zheng, and arrived at Zhao Ji's palace in the blink of an eye. As soon as Ying Chu died, Zhao

Ji inevitably felt lonely in her boudoir. At the moment, she was having a heated exchange with her old lover Lu Buwei. It felt like not seeing each other for one day was like three autumns. Thinking of the ten beauties that Ying Zheng sent to Lu yesterday, her mouth felt sour.

, she didn’t put on a good face when Lu Buwei came over.

He was frightened all night last night, and was aroused by Ying Zheng's strange attitude today. He felt relieved. Under the ups and downs, Lu Buwei was naturally not as happy as he could make Zhao Ji happy as usual. Zhao Ji only thought that he was focusing on the new life.

The beauty who entered the house was immediately jealous. Furthermore, seeing that Lu Buwei was not interested in things in the house, he became more and more sure of his suspicion. After all the fuss, how could Lu Buwei stand this?

He had no choice but to coax him, but Zhao Ji was beautiful, but her temper was so bad that she was unwilling to wait on her, so she put on her clothes and left the palace...

When word of the unhappy breakup of the two reached Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng had just finished dinner. Although Zhao Gao had been beaten with a cane during the day, he still had to wait with his body injured. He saw the coldness at the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth.

, and his heart shuddered at that moment. He and Zhao Ji had secretly had several romantic relationships, and now they have both ended up with each other. Now Lu Buwei has shamed Ying Zheng in person. With his unyielding character, he

It is natural to imagine what the consequences will be in the future, and I can't help but feel a little happy.

In 246 BC, the first year of Yingzheng's reign, Jinyang rebelled, having just recovered it within two years. This Jinyang was also known as Taiyuan in later generations. It was originally the birthplace of the State of Zhao. In the third year of King Zhuang Xiang's reign,

Captured by Meng Ao, the rebellion in Jinyang had already been planned as early as early March. However, Lu Buwei was so powerful at this time that his followers wanted to write a book and biography for him in order to please his master, so that he would be famous for generations to come. For this reason,

Naturally, Lu Buwei readily agreed to the matter. Therefore, while controlling the government, he decided to name his book the Spring and Autumn Annals of the Lu Family. Naturally, Lu Buwei did not want to let the Jinyang rebellion be exposed at this time.

King Zhuang Xiang had just died, and the King of Qin was only fourteen years old, so the government was in his hands. When news of Jinyang's rebellion came, wouldn't it tell the world that Lu Buwei was incompetent? What's more, the Jinyang area was originally led by Meng Ao.

The reason why the siege and later failed to take advantage of the opportunity to attack after the situation was over was all because of Lu Buwei's fault in passing false king's orders. If he raised the issue now, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face? Ying Zheng knew that he was young at this time.

There was no suitable opportunity to compete with Lu Buwei and take the power back into his own hands. Who would have thought that this opportunity would come in the blink of an eye.

When the news about Jinyang reached the capital of Xianyang, Lu Buwei panicked. At that moment, he didn't bother messing around with Zhao Ji, so he dressed up and went to the palace to ask for an audience. Because this matter was originally at his fault, Ying Zheng was not polite.

Taking away some of the power from his hands, although it does not affect Lu Buwei's status, it is still a good start.

Ying Zheng had just taken over a small part of the power in the DPRK. At this time, a Korean named Zheng Guo came from the Qin State and brought a lot of gold and jade to Lu Buwei's house. He was brought in by Lu Buwei that night.

In the palace, when Ying Zheng received the news, he was naturally angry, but he hid his anger very well. On his face, he just ordered people to put on clothes for him, and then came to the main hall.

Meet this talented and virtuous person that Lu Buwei said.

This Zheng Guo is from South Korea, which is close to the Qin State. He is about thirty years old, has a gentle face, wears a dark blue dress, and has a rather humble and demeaning attitude. Judging from this image alone, Ying Zheng feels that

People don't have any disgust, nor are they disgusted because he is the person brought by Lu Buwei. After all, if this person is really talented and learned, it would be good if he can use it for himself. Ying Zheng comes from later generations, and he knows that as a king, he cannot

Look at people based on preconceived notions, let alone determine your likes and dislikes based on your own personal preferences. This will not be beneficial to you, and will only push people who may be useful to you into the enemy's mouth.

He knelt down first, and then he was served some food and wine.

"Zheng heard that Mr. Zhongfu said that Mr. Zhong has great talents. I wonder if Mr. Zheng has such an honor to be able to listen to a few words of Mr. Zheng." Ying Zheng has always respected talented people. After three rounds of drinks, Ying Zheng said,

After adjusting his clothes, he bowed his hands to Zheng Guo, who was sitting next to him, and then looked at Lu Buwei, who was almost at the same level as him, and smiled.

When Zheng Guo saw that he valued him so much and was extremely polite in his words, he couldn't help but show excitement on his face. In fact, he was not a great talent, but he was particularly proficient in waterways, so he accepted the order from South Korea to come here.

He had already been carrying the king's orders, but when he heard Ying Zheng take the initiative to ask, he couldn't help but let go of the wine master. He stood up and straightened his clothes, then saluted Ying Zheng and said seriously:...

"I am not talented. I have a way to offer to the king." After he finished speaking, he knocked his forehead heavily on the ground. This man looked serious, and just from his appearance, he was a man of great principles. Ying Zheng had always

I thought that a person with this kind of personality would be the most reassuring to work with, so after listening to him speak, I quickly waved my sleeves and said with great interest: "Tell me what you're talking about!"

Zheng Guo agreed, seemed to pause for a moment, and then said: "I have some opinions on water control. If I make any mistakes, please point me to the king!" Although Ying Zheng was only fourteen years old, he still

Zheng Guo did not look down on him in a pedantic way. Instead, he kowtowed respectfully before he started to really talk about his views. This action made Ying Zheng feel a little good about him, and he nodded, before he spoke.

As he spoke, Lu Buwei showed a sarcastic look in his eyes. In his opinion, Zheng Guo was just a villain who was used to playing tricks. He could use gold and silk to find him to clear the relationship. These methods were all leftover from his original use.

Yes, anyone who could do such a thing is just a villain, so he didn't take him seriously. He didn't even bother to listen carefully to the methods he said. Seeing that Ying Zheng wanted to listen, he just thought it was to use Zheng Guo to coax the child.

Since I could accompany him to the palace, I naturally didn’t want to waste any more time, so I cupped my hands and interrupted Ying Zheng’s words:

"Your Majesty, I still have something to do, so I'll excuse myself first." After saying that, Ying Zheng stood up and walked away without waiting for a reply. When he left the gate of Zhangtai Palace, he realized that he hadn't seen Zhao Ji for a long time, so he turned in the opposite direction and headed again.

When Zhao Ji went to the palace, she naturally spent half the night in a romantic mood.

As soon as Ying Zheng waited for him to leave, there was a haze in his eyes, and the palace was suddenly so quiet that you could hear a needle drop. Then layers of cold sweat broke out on Zheng Guo's back. He had heard that Lu Buwei was powerful in Qin, but he never thought about it.

He has become so powerful that he can come and leave whenever he wants in front of King Ying. Isn’t this deceiving his young master? Although Qin Wangzheng seemed to be quite polite and virtuous, after being humiliated like this, he turned everything over

He could see it in his eyes, but he hoped that he would not take his anger out on him. Zheng Guo's forehead was frightened with white hair breaking out in cold sweat, but his face remained calm, and he knelt on the ground without getting up.

Although death is terrible, for people like them who are passionate about the skills they have learned, it is really painful to be unable to realize their own retribution. It is better for a man to die well than to live a life of survival. Therefore, Ying Zheng did not speak.

Zheng Guo didn't even ask to leave. It was extremely difficult to see Ying Zheng. It was not so easy to give up this time and invite Lu Buwei next time. He only had one chance, so Zheng Guo knelt down firmly.

On the ground, there was no sound for a long time.

Although Ying Zheng was displeased with Lu Buwei's offense, he himself was not in a position to compete with him. Even though he was a little angry, he mostly wanted to test whether the Korean named Zheng Guo was with the Lu family.

Seeing that he did not leave, but was still kneeling on the ground quietly, I started to worry a little, and quickly said kindly: "Sir, why are you still kneeling on the ground? Why don't you get up quickly?" After he finished speaking, he looked at it.

Zhao Gao glanced at him and understood immediately. He walked towards Zheng Guo and stretched out his hand to help him up.

Zheng Guo couldn't help but be surprised by King Qin's gentle words. Coupled with Zhao Gao's actions, Zheng Guo felt grateful to Ying Zheng. Just because of his small action, his heart immediately softened and he stood up solemnly.

After bowing to Ying Zheng, he knelt down on the ground and said with some excitement: "Your Majesty thinks so highly of me, it would really make me ashamed. I am willing to go to great lengths to repay your attention and understanding!" He finished speaking.

, raised the wine cup, and drank it all in one gulp. Seeing that Ying Zheng did not despise him, when he just put down the wine cup, the King of Qin on the high platform also placed the empty wine cup upside down, and the deer-shaped ring

The loud sound he made when knocking down moved him even more, and he said quickly: "Although I was born in South Korea since childhood, I know a lot about the situation in Qin. Although Qin is strong now, in my opinion, there are

Internal trouble is imminent.”….

What Zheng Guo said was really treasonous, but it was exactly what Ying Zheng was thinking. At this time, although the Qin State seemed to have strong troops and horses, he also had him, a modern man who came from later generations, and had weapons, armor and other small things for war.

It can be improved a bit, not to mention how powerful it is, but at least the power can be increased a bit. However, conquering the world does not rely entirely on soldiers and horses. The most important thing is the food and grass provided by the rear. Soldiers are also human beings, and

If you need clothes and food, if the rear is insufficient, no matter how brave the soldiers are, it will be useless. The Qin State is now located in the back area. The characteristics of the Guanzhong Plain are that the northwest is slightly higher and the southeast is slightly lower, which is very unfavorable for planting. Although ordinary people

Water is not as convenient as it is in modern times. Everyone has running water in their homes. Instead, everything depends on manpower. It would be great if God is kind, but if there is a drought year and water is scarce, it may cause a disaster!

At that time, not only will it be impossible to supply the food for Qin's army, but the people may not even be able to feed themselves. When there are complaints, it is most likely to cause resentment among the people. If there are some more thoughtful people among them, Qin may seem strong, but it is really easy to have resentment.

Disaster came. However, the people of Qin were not aware of such a problem at this time. Ying Zheng had noticed it, but he was now weak. Lu Buwei controlled foreign affairs, and the palace was controlled by Zhao Ji. Fortunately, he

He hasn't accepted any women yet, so he is not completely controlled by others. However, Zhao Ji has made many suggestions on the issue of women's lust. Even Xia Ji and others were quite uneasy and mentioned several times that the fortress would come over.

It was just that Ying Zheng refused on the pretext of keeping filial piety. Now that Doze had this, Zheng Guo sent him a pillow. Ying Zheng couldn't help but be overjoyed. In order to show respect for him, he actually stepped down from the throne and went to court.

Zheng Guo came over and said happily as he walked:

"Sir's words have won political support. I beg you for your advice on how to resolve this crisis!"
