Chapter 174: In-laws (2)

"Wang Shang......" Zhao Gao leaned over and slowly placed a few rolls of bamboo slips in Yingzheng's hand. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"This is the daughter of the six kingdoms of the east of the country, and a bride price......"

"Hmm." Ying Zheng replied softly, but he didn't mean to reach out to see it at all.

"And this one, it's a ......woman sent by the nobles of Guanzhong," Zhao Gao took out a pair of silk books from his arms again, and carefully placed them on top of several bamboo slips.

"Guanzhong?" Ying Zheng's hand that was writing the decree paused slightly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Gao's eyes lit up slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Among them, the women offered by the Sima family, the Baili family, and the Meng family are the most ......."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, but he didn't ask in detail.

Zhao Gao saw that Yingzheng didn't seem to be interested in the women of these three families, so he quickly stopped.

Although he received a lot of benefits from these three families, Zhao Gao always reminded himself in his heart that he was Yingzheng's slave, and only Yingzheng could decide his life and death.

And Ying Zheng also knew what Zhao Gao was thinking, or what benefits he had received behind his back.

However, these heroes don't care. Ying Zheng knows very well that no one is perfect, and it is impossible to criticize a person for being completely loyal to himself without a little selfishness.

But that's fine, things like money are the most worthless in Yingzheng's eyes. If you can buy people's hearts and minds just by relying on money, it is simply the most cost-effective deal.

"Is there anyone from the Chu line?" Ying Zheng suddenly asked.

"Chu?" Zhao Gao was also stunned in his heart, and then hurriedly reported a few of them.

Ying Zheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Why are they all from Wei Fan's family?" ”

Zhao Gao was shocked, as Ying Zheng's close attendant, he heard the dissatisfaction in Ying Zheng's words.

"Back to the king, Xiong Quan, the prince of Chu State, has just died, maybe he didn't take it into account......" Zhao Gao explained with a far-fetched reason.

"Really?" Ying Zheng's brows furrowed slightly.

This time the harem was enriched, on the surface, in order to consider the face of King Qin. After all, as the most powerful Qin State among the Seven Kingdoms, the harem was empty, which was really a bit unreasonable.

However, for Yingzheng, these are just nothing. What Yingzheng really wants to do is to use this to stabilize the six kingdoms of the east and the old Qin system that is about to move.

After all, in this era when one person has attained the Tao and the chicken dog ascends to heaven, if a woman in the family can be crowned queen, her power will definitely be greatly increased.

Now, Xiong Quan's first line, the talent is withering, and it seems that it has reached the point of life and death, but only Ying Zheng knows in his heart that the person who can lead Xiong Quan's family and really go to the top has just appeared.

And if you want to become such a person, you must be ruthless. In order to achieve the goal, we will not give up.

Now, a great opportunity is placed in front of him, why doesn't he take it?

Is it really as Zhao Gao said?

No, it's simply not possible. How can a person who is extremely calm and wise be so sick and sad because of the loss of a person? Or is he playing some tricks?

Ying Zheng thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out.

And Zhao Gao, who was standing next to Ying Zheng, was worried in his heart for a long time.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, especially in front of Yingzheng, a wise but equally ruthless king, such a sense of crisis is even stronger.

However, Zhao Gao pondered and meditated in his mind for a long time, but he still couldn't find any women from Xiong Quan's family.

"Could it be someone from the old Qin family who destroyed the names on the list?" Zhao Gao couldn't help but have such an idea.

It's not that Zhao Gao wants to deliberately slander the old Qin family, but that Zhao Gao does have an extraordinary memory. It's almost the same if it's said that it's unforgettable.

Since it is not on the list, it may really be that Lao Qin has done something.

"Zhao Gao, you step down first......"

Ying Zheng suddenly waved his hand and signaled Zhao Gao, who was still entangled, to retreat.

"Whoa!" Zhao Gao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and responded.

"Come out......"

After Zhao Gao left, Ying Zheng whispered to the empty hall.

"Your Majesty!" Tiansu fell from the roof and knelt on one knee.

"The widow asked you to spy on Xiong Qi, how did you do?"

"Going back to the king, it seems that something is not going well......," Tiansu replied with some hesitation.

"Not going well?" Ying Zheng frowned lightly, and then quickly relieved.

"Tell me, what's wrong with it?"

"How so?" Tiansu scratched his head slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "This is a feeling of the minister. I always feel that Xiong Qi is deliberately acting like something to me. ”

"Go on."

The minister estimated that he had discovered the minister early. However, he did not take the slightest action. Except for the aftermath of Xiong Quan, everything else is as usual. Tiansu replied affirmatively.

"Really?" Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Then who did you meet again?" ”

"It seems that in addition to his younger brothers and sisters, the others are the few old ministers left by Xiong Quan now." Tiansu said casually.

"It's natural for Xiong Qi to see those old ministers. Presumably, Xiong Quan has already given Xiong Qi all his life's wealth......" Ying Zheng said softly.

"In that case, what do you want to do?"

"Your Majesty? Do you want Xiong Qi to grow stronger? Tiansu asked with some curiosity.

Ying Zheng glanced at Tiansu lightly, and then nodded.

"But, in my opinion, that kid is very shrewd, aren't you afraid of raising tigers, Your Majesty?"

"Raising tigers?" Ying Zheng chuckled, "Didn't there be a tiger in the DPRK and China now?" ”

Tiansu's eyes lit up, "The king means that the two tigers are fighting?" ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, this is the law!" ”

"But, don't Sima Jun's gang understand the king's thoughts?" Tiansu still said with some concern.

"You still don't really understand the true meaning of the two tigers." Ying Zheng glanced at Tiansu again and explained patiently.

"If two equally strong tigers fight, they may not fight to the death. will only engage in some painless small actions, the previous Chu system and the old Qin system are the best examples. ”

"There are only one big and one small, one strong and one weak. Only the strong will make up their minds to completely put the weak to death. And in order to survive, the weak will desperately resist and tear a piece of meat from the strong. ”

Tiansu's eyes lit up slightly, but then he asked suspiciously: "But, isn't the current Eastern Department completely mastered by you, the king?" Why do you want to take the risk of cultivating Chu Gongziqi? ”

Ying Zheng shook his head and said, "Lu Buwei is dead, and the strength of the Dong family in the court is not as good as before. It is completely impossible to confront the old Qin family in the court. Only in the army, relying on the identity of Meng Fu, there is still the possibility of fighting. ”

However, Xiong Qi is different. This man has great talent and ambition. More importantly, he has the identity of condensing the Chu family again. As long as the widow restricts the Empress Dowager Huayang a little, it is not a problem to get rid of waste like Wei Fan. ”

"Besides, although the Chu system is weak now, the foundation above the court still exists. With the right use, it won't be long before you can get back to where you used to be. ”

"Today, the old Qin family is a big tiger in the court and the army. Only by driving the two little tigers of the Dong and Chu families to fight with him can the widows have the possibility of completely mastering the Qin State and never suffering in the future! ”

After hearing this, Tiansu nodded again and again in his heart.

If he really does what Ying Zheng planned, the old Qin family may really take the lead in attacking the Chu family. After all, now, the old Qin family is fighting for the interests of the court, how can it be possible to let the Chu family resurrect and get a piece of the pie?

In this way, the Chu family will definitely fight back, and contradictions will naturally appear. Even, in the end, it will expand to the point where neither side can stop it.

"By the way, you said earlier that Xiong Qi often meets with his younger siblings?" Ying Zheng suddenly asked again.

Tiansu paused slightly, then nodded and said, "Back to the king, yes." ”

"And now, what about his brother and sister?"

Tiansu thought for a moment, and then his face turned ugly.

"Back to the king, Xiong Qi's brother, Xiong Huan seems to have been secretly seeing a person recently, but this person's identity is mysterious and his martial arts are strong. We don't know who they are. ”

"And Xiong Qi's sister has ...... It's already filled into Xianyang Palace......"
