Chapter 4: Lü Buwei's Conspiracy
Although later generations scolded the Qin State to the point of incompleteness and scolded the violent Qin, and the Qin State became a symbol of cruelty and unkindness, however, there were also people with insight who praised the Qin State, and Xunzi was one of them.
Xunzi once traveled to the Qin State, saw the customs of the Qin State, was greatly admired, and predicted that the unified China must be the Qin State. His prophecy came true, and it was true that the Qin state unified China. Because of this, Xunzi was not tolerated by Confucianism, and was once not listed as a Confucian, and Confucian scholars did not recognize his Confucian status.
Xunzi wrote in the "Powerful Country": "Looking at the customs of Qin, its people are simple, its vocal music is not dirty, its clothes are not bad, and the ancient people are also." The officials of the government are solemn, all respectful, respectful, faithful and not inferior (inferior), and the ancient officials are also. When you enter the country, you can see that the doctor comes out of his door, enters the public gate, enters the public gate, and returns to his family, and has no private affairs. (Officials) are not compared to Zhou, not friends, but not clear and public, and the ancient scholars and doctors. Looking at its court, its court is idle, listening to the decision of all things and leaving nothing, like the anarchist, the ancient dynasty also. Therefore, the fourth world has a victory, not luck, but also a number! ”
This is a good indication of the difference of the Qin State, and it is this difference that the Qin State finally unified China and achieved a turning point in Chinese history.
Next, Qin Yiren took people to learn about the customs of Qin, walked more places, and sighed more.

Xianyang, the Prince's Mansion, in Mrs. Huayang's room.
Mrs. Huayang is talking to a woman with the beauty of a closed moon flower, this woman is her sister Mrs. Huayue.
"Sister, have you heard? Qin Yiren has made great contributions and is about to return to the country. How do you cope? Mrs. Huayue's voice was crisp. Words are like pearls falling on a jade plate. It's beautiful.
"Hey." Mrs. Huayang sighed lightly and said, "This Qin Yiren is really hidden, such a deep city." I think back then, I saw that he was very smart and clever, and it would definitely become a big trouble for me. If I give birth to a son and have him, I will definitely not be able to win the favor of the prince, so I will ask the prince to send him to hostage Zhao. How can you think of it. All these years have passed, and I am old, but I have no children and no daughters. If Qin Yiren returns, it will be really bad for me. ”
Qin Yi's hostage Zhao is a conspiracy in itself, and it is Mrs. Huayang who wants to get rid of him by the hand of Zhao Guo.
Qin Yiren is the son of Xia Ji, the favorite concubine of the crown prince Yingzhu, although he does not have a very outstanding talent, he is the most sought after among the brothers, he is the tallest of the short, and the flagpole of the chopsticks. This has become a thorn in the side of Mrs. Huaxia. A thorn in the flesh, to get rid of it. It just so happened that King Qin Zhao wanted to seek the party in South Korea. didn't want Zhao Guo to participate, there were branches, if he wanted to marry Zhao, he had to send people as hostages, Mrs. Huayang was soft and hard, and the prince Yingzhu had to agree, and finally sent Qin Yiren to Zhao State.
If Qin Yiren goes, it will be impossible to return to Qin, and even if he wants to come back, he doesn't know that it is the Year of the Monkey. By that time, Mrs. Huayang had already given birth to a son and became the prince's heart, enough to inherit the crown prince's position. However, after all these years, Mrs. Huayang is still unable to have children, which makes her very unhappy.
What worries her even more is that Qin Yiren has become famous, held a ceremony to pick up materials, and became the number one person in the world. When this news came, Mrs. Huayang was entangled for a while, thinking about how to deal with it.
If it weren't for her conspiracy, Qin Yiren would not have questioned Zhao, and Qin Yiren's fame was a huge threat to her.
Immediately afterwards, there was news that Qin Yiren had made great achievements, first dispersing the alliance, and then letting the Qin army run horses in the city, almost destroying the Zhao State. Later, the news came even more shocking, Qin Yiren single-handedly planned the ambush of Xinlingjun and Zhongmu, and the Qin army won a great victory, beheading 700,000 people.
This is a great merit, Qin Yiren will definitely increase his fame and status in the Qin State sharply.
However, there was something that made Mrs. Huayang even more worried, that is, Qin Yiren actually destroyed the Zhao State. In the hundred years of the Warring States Period, none of the seven Warring States was destroyed. Qin Yiren destroyed the Zhao State, what a great achievement is this?
With so many merits, as well as the title of the world's number one scholar, if Qin Yiren returns to Qin, he will definitely be appreciated by King Qin Zhao, and his status will change greatly. At that time, Qin Yiren wants to find trouble with her and settle old accounts with her, how to deal with it?
These days, Mrs. Huayang racked her brains and thought of many ways, but none of them were useful.
"Does my sister have a plan for the aftermath?" Mrs. Hua Yue asked.
"None." Mrs. Huayang shook her head.
"Sister, if this matter can't be solved well, there will be endless troubles." Mrs. Huayue's good-looking brows furrowed, and she said: "The prince's body and bones are too poor, and no one can say how long he can live." Once something happens to the crown prince, the position of the king of Qin is likely to fall to Qin Yiren. Looking at the sons of the crown prince, there is no one who can compete with Qin Yiren. ”
"Don't say that no one among the prince's sons can fight against him, even if you look at all the grandsons of King Qin, there is no one who can fight against him, this thing is annoying, very annoying." Mrs. Huayang's brow furrowed even tighter.
Yingzhu is a well-known "sick man", and no one can say how long he will live. Maybe, if it's good today, tomorrow will be a fart. Ying Zhu is the only backer of Mrs. Huayang, if she wasn't very good at taking care of people, Ying Zhu couldn't live without her, she would have been killed by King Qin Zhao a long time ago.
Hua Yuefu looked at Mrs. Huayang and said, "Sister, my sister has a word, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”
"Sister, we depend on each other for our lives, and our sisterhood is deep, so what's not to say? You said. Mrs. Huayang glanced at Mrs. Huayue and said, "You still come with me with these false feelings." ”
"Recently, there is a guest from Shandong, called Lu Buwei, this person is a strange person, erudite and talented, very resourceful, or can get a strange strategy to resolve this difficulty." Mrs. Huayue leaned forward, and the two of them got closer.
"Lü Buwei? Haven't heard of it. "Although Lü Buwei is a well-known businessman in the world and a legend in the business world, his reputation has not yet reached the Prince's Mansion of the Qin State, how can Mrs. Huayang know about him.
"Sister, this person should not be underestimated, you should see it at first sight." Mrs. Hua Yue said busily.
After Lü Buwei entered Qin, it had been some time, and during this time, he only did one thing, and that was to befriend Mrs. Huayue and Yangquanjun.
Yang Quanjun is the younger brother of Mrs. Huayang, relying on Mrs. Huayang's power, he is very prosperous in the Qin State, and he has some power.
Lü Buwei is good at greeting, clever, and has a lot of gold thrown down, in the eyes of Mrs. Huayue, Lü Buwei, a businessman with low social status, has become a knowledgeable and talented strange person.
"Since you insist, then call him here." Mrs. Huayang had little hope.
"Alright, I'll go and ask him over." Mrs. Huayue stood up and was about to go to invite Lu Buwei.
"Sister, no need, Mr. Lu, I've already invited you." At this moment, a clear man's voice sounded, and I saw Yang Quanjun striding in with Lu Buwei.
"Brother, how did you get here?" Mrs. Huayang was very fond of this younger brother and asked hurriedly.
"Sister, you have something difficult, can I, the younger brother, still come over? I'm not a person without a liver or a lung. "Yangquanjun is half joking, half happy.
"You." Mrs. Huayang doted on this younger brother very much, and pointed out with a smile: "It's okay to have a heart, my sister didn't hurt you in vain." ”
"Sister, this is Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu, this is my sister, Mrs. Prince. "Yangquanjun introduced Lu Buwei.
"I've seen Madame." Lu Buwei hurriedly stepped forward to salute, decent, without the slightest rudeness.
Mrs. Huayang saw it in her eyes, and she was very approving, and asked: "I heard that Mr. is erudite and talented, and he is very resourceful, and he doesn't know my difficulties, do you have a way to solve it?" ”
Lu Buwei hurriedly said: "Madame asked, but Buwei didn't dare to say nothing. Qin Yiren is the first person in the world, famous in the world, and can resist princes. Then he made great contributions, planning to ambush Xinlingjun and Zhongmu battles, and the Qin State beheaded 700,000 people. There is also his merit in destroying Zhao, which is a miracle of the world, if he returns to Qin, he will inevitably be favored by the King of Qin......"
This is very reasonable, but everyone knows it, Mrs. Huayang frowned, quite impatient, and said: "Although what Mr. said is reasonable, it is something that everyone knows. ”
"Madam, please give Buwei a tablet, and let Buwei say everything." Of course, Lu Buwei understood Mrs. Huayang's thoughts, and his smile became more kind, and said, "If Qin Yiren is favored by King Qin and settles accounts with Madame, Madame will be in great trouble." No, why didn't Mrs. accept Qin Yiren as her heir. ”
"Adopted as an heir?" Mrs. Huayang's brows furrowed, her eyes flashed, and she muttered: "The idea is very good, but I'm afraid it's not easy." You know, Qin Yiren has a reputation and even more great achievements, who can make him bow his head? ”
If Qin Yiren is accepted as an heir, the benefits do not need to be said, Mrs. Huayang has rightfully become Qin Yiren's mother, and she is above Qin Yiren, even if Qin Yiren is dissatisfied, she is helpless.
The question is, Qin Yiren is famous all over the world, and he has great achievements, who can make him bow his head?
"yes." Lady Huayue and Yangquanjun nodded in unison and echoed loudly.
"Madam, why is this difficult? All you need is the prince's permission. Lu Buwei smiled more kindly, and the smile on his face was stacked layer after layer: "Madam, as far as Buwei knows, the prince relies on Madame a lot. ”
"Prince?" Mrs. Huayang's delicate eyebrows were raised, and she said with a smile: "What Mr. said is reasonable, and this matter is feasible." ”

In the study of the prince Yingzhu, the prince knelt on the short case, panting and sweating profusely. It's winter, and he's sweating profusely as if he's having dog days.
At this moment, I saw Mrs. Huayang come in, smiled, Yingzhu's soul was almost hooked away, wiped her sweat, and said, "Madam, you can be regarded as here." Come on, come on. ”
"You, you know ......" Mrs. Huayang gave him a roll of his eyes, and his jade-like fingers pointed at Yingzhu's forehead, sitting on Yingzhu's lap.
Ying Zhu liked Mrs. Huayang very much, hugged her, and walked around Mrs. Huayang with both hands, rubbing the double peaks on his chest into different shapes.
"Whew!"
Prince Yingzhu's breathing became heavier and heavier, his face flushed, and he picked up Mrs. Huayang and walked towards the couch. came to the couch, put Mrs. Huayang down, and hurriedly climbed up, ready to enjoy the joy of fish and water.
"Woo!" However, at this moment, Mrs. Huayang covered her face with her hands and cried very sadly. (To be continued.) )
