Chapter 1159: Carrying on the Past and Forging Ahead (49)

Cao Tianci, who had just returned to Jicheng, looked thinner, but only those who really knew him understood that under the cover of his clothes, he had a body as strong as iron, as Gao Yuan's personal disciple, his hand-to-hand combat skills, very few people could be his opponents, even if Gao Yuan, now he didn't dare to say that he could defeat him, because after Gao Yuan led the army, the art of fighting began to focus on the battle technique of spear and halberd saber, and then the power became bigger and bigger, and the status became higher and higher, until he sat on the seat of the King of Han, There are fewer and fewer opportunities to do it with people, now there is no more, now it can only be self-entertainment, the people in the palace who gave him a sparring partner are afraid one by one, there used to be a Helan Yan who practiced with him with real knives, but after He Lanyan was taught a lesson by Ye Jing'er, she was not so serious, which made Gao Yuan very depressed.

Yang Dasha in the Young Guards is a good sparring opponent, but he is a general in command, and he can't always call him to the palace to accompany him to practice, in the past few years, Gao Yuan is very clear, his kung fu has regressed a lot, sailing against the current, and if he doesn't advance, he will retreat, the reason is so simple, not to mention, Gao Yuan's hand-to-hand combat skills itself need a strong opponent to grind, only the guy who walks on the death line every day can keep his body and spirit in the best Zhuangtai forever.

And Cao Tianci is now in such a state.

Gao Yuan was originally going to personally talk to his generals about the necessity and importance of reorganizing the army this time, but Cao Tianci, who had been away for several months, returned at this time, and Gao Yuan had to change his itinerary and hand over the affairs originally arranged to Shang Shuye of the Ministry of War to deal with.

He needs to understand the current situation in the Qin State.

"Master!" Cao Tianci cleared his throat, when there were only two people together, Cao Tianci always called Gao Yuan like this." This time I went to the Qin State, and I gained a lot."

Cao Tianci's face couldn't hide his joy, "Originally, I just wanted to meet the few Qin State officials we had bought, but after I got there, I unexpectedly found that there was something wrong with the internal affairs of the Qin State, so after a period of wait-and-see, I took a risk."

"I went to see Fan Sui, the first assistant of the Qin State!"

Gao Yuan frowned, looked at Cao Tianci, and scolded: "You don't want to die, you are so bold, are you going to send it to the door to find the dead yourself?"

"Master, I also thought about it again and again, and finally felt that it was worth taking a risk, even if I miscalculated and was arrested by Fan Sui, Yu Dahan's loss was not big, the Supervision Yuan could still hold up the shelf without me, but if I succeeded, I would be able to dig a big piece of the cornerstone of the Qin State." Cao Tianci was not flustered by Gao Yuan's reprimand, and was still smiling.

"Look at you, that's a success?" Gao Yuan said with a smile, bold, this is his evaluation of Cao Tianci's action.

"It can't be said to be a success, but at least, I made Fan Sui hesitate." Cao Tianci said proudly: "Fan Sui is very different from ordinary Qin Chen, this person is indeed a humble gentleman, and his temperament is very little ruthless and hypocritical as a politician, this meeting makes me admire him very much."

"Fan Sui is very good at governing the country, you don't want to be confused by what he looks like, you can sit firmly in the position of the first assistant of the Qin State, and become the auxiliary minister, it can be seen that this person is not simple, he does not move you, or because of other reasons and ideas." Gao Yuan shook his head lightly and said, "Being able to sit under one person and above ten thousand people, is it as simple as what you see on the surface?"

"Master, I don't care what he thinks, but his life in the Qin State is really not good now, and it takes two things to say that this first assistant can be a few days old!" Cao Tianci smiled, "There are serious differences in the concept of governing the country in the Qin court."

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Gao Yuan sat up straight with interest, reached out to lift the teapot, and personally poured a full cup for Cao Tianci.

"Strictly speaking, there is a serious disagreement between Fan Sui and Li Ru on the concept of governing the country." Cao Tianci said: "Qin has been fighting for many years, and the national strength has reached the verge of collapse, and last year Li Xin, Wang Xiao's two armies were defeated by our Han, the domestic contradictions began to erupt in a concentrated manner, and now it is not an exaggeration to describe the people's livelihood, but under the oppression of our strong military force, although they are now extremely tense about the national economy and people's livelihood, they have to continue to expand the military war, which further exacerbates the domestic contradictions, Fan Sui hopes that the Qin State will make reforms in internal affairs, specifically, Fan Sui just wanted Qin to imitate a series of reforms of my Han Dynasty to stimulate the improvement of the domestic economic situation and alleviate the current predicament, but his idea was completely denied by Li Ru,"

"Li Ru has studied everything about my Han very deeply, and he naturally knows that if the Qin State imitates the reforms of my Han at this time, I am afraid that it will only exacerbate the predicament of the Qin State, and it is not surprising to deny Fan Sui's idea."

"Does the master also think that it will not work for the Qin State to imitate our reforms now?" Cao Tianci asked.

Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Every reform of the country's government will inevitably be accompanied by blood and fire, without enough blood flowing, how can there be a smooth implementation of the new policy?" The reason why we were able to successfully implement this policy is because of the coincidence that we were a country built on the ruins, but even so, we have killed a lot of people, right? There are still a few of them, which you personally commanded, and you have not done less to plant and defile them, right?"

"Whoever stands in front of the master and becomes a stumbling block to the master, I will mercilessly clean him up, even if it is infamous because of it." Cao Tianci said stiffly, "Those people really didn't do anything to endanger my Han, but they refused to implement the established national policy of the Han, that is, they were enemies of the Han."

"Then think about it, if Fan Sui wants to implement our set in the Qin State, how much blood will they have to shed? For them, it's not just a matter of bloodshed, it's a matter of breaking the muscles and bones, if there is chaos in the country, we will press the border with a large army, and the Qin State will be destroyed in no day, so Li Ru still sees this problem very clearly."

"But Fan Sui thinks that if this continues, sooner or later the Qin State will be dragged to death by our Han Dynasty, master, since the signing of the peace treaty last year, the economic war implemented by our country has begun to bear evil results in the Qin State, and the deterioration of their economy and people's livelihood is really unbelievable if you don't see it with your own eyes, even their capital Xianyang, there are also a large number of people who are not clothed and unfed, and a large number of beggars fill the streets, compared with our Jicheng, it is really like hell."

"Fan Sui wants to reform, but Li Ru has been operating in the Qin court for decades, and his forces are intertwined, Fan Sui is helpless, yes or no? He agreed to meet you, I'm afraid he also had the intention of taking advantage of you, right?"

"Fan Sui is not without supporters in the Qin State, Fan Sui actually has the support of Tan Feng and Zhou Yu, these two people are also the real power figures who lead the army in the Qin State now, if the opponent is not Li Ru, Fan Sui is really likely to gain power." Cao Tianci said.

"Tan Feng and Zhou Yu have to lead the army in the Qin State, because they are indeed talented, and they have a deep hatred with us, King Qin Wulie sees it very accurately, Tan Feng is to defeat me as his own responsibility, and Zhou Yu has good military skills, but in politics, he is the head of Tan Feng, coupled with the Quwo Mutiny, the two have become grasshoppers on the same line, these two people are in a high position in the Qin State, but they are like rootless duckweed, and Fan Sui hit it off, and Li Ru disdains to make friends with the two of them, because Li Ru has a super way."

Gao Yuan paused, and suddenly a strange look appeared on his face, staring at Cao Tianci and said, "Fan Sui saw you, didn't he want to lure you to kill Li Ru?"

Cao Tianci looked at Gao Yuan in surprise: "Master, why are you unpredictable?" Fan Sui didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning of the words was tempting me to do this, and I was really moved at that time, if Fan Sui provided us with some exact information, I mobilized all the forces in the Qin State, and it was not impossible to deliver a fatal blow. Killing Li Ru should be an incomparably heavy blow to the court of the Qin State."

"But why didn't you do it in the end?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile.

"I was tempted at the time, but when I thought that Fan Sui was the first assistant of the Qin State, my heart suddenly struck, and after thinking about it, I still answered him vaguely at that time, I don't want to understand the key here, I will never do it, Li Ru is not an ordinary person, if he really assassinates him, the impact will be too great, and it may cause a big war between the two countries." Cao Tianci said: "But I know that the master doesn't want to fight in the past two years."

"You're right not to do it, Fan Sui's idea is very simple, as soon as Li Ru's towering tree falls, Lu Chao is still young, and he is leading the troops outside, Li Ru will have no leader above the court, Fan Sui can let go to implement his reform plan, although this may cause civil unrest in Qin, let my Han army intervene in advance, but as long as Qin withstands our attack on the front line, he will have a lot to do, you know, if we attack at this time, Fan Sui may easily gather the hearts of the people in the country, Let the whole country unite against us, if this is the case, he is really likely to succeed in the reform of the Qin State, this is a strategy to put the death and then live, Fan Sui sees it very far, he knows that if this continues, the Qin State will be defeated by my Han sooner or later, so he can only break the cauldron and sink the boat, not to mention, he still has the card of the ally Chu State to play. If we really send out a large army, we may not be able to destroy the Qin State."

"Did he think so?" Cao Tianci was speechless and said: "Then I'm glad I didn't do this, master, you don't know, I can endure so hard in those days!"

Gao Yuan laughed, "In the long run, Fan Sui is a greater threat to us, Li Ru is a master of ideas, but Fan Sui is a very realistic person, and he is better at governing the government, Li Ru, if he is allowed to be the first assistant, he will definitely make a mess of the Qin State, God, you find a suitable time to reveal the conversation with Fan Sui a little bit. Well, to be plausible."

Cao Tianci was stunned, "Does the master want to clean up Fan Sui?"

"It's not that I want to clean him up, but let the people of Qin clean him up by themselves." Takato laughed. (To be continued......)
