Chapter 74: Li Si surrenders
Ying Zheng and his party returned to Zilanxuan. When I returned to Zilanxuan, I saw Yin Wei waiting in front of the door with the young man from the Qianlong Pavilion, and the two saw Ying Zheng hurriedly bowing down. Seeing this, Ying Zheng hurriedly asked the two to get up, and Yin Wei introduced to Ying Zheng: "Wu Anjun, this is Mr. Li Si." It is a high disciple under the little sage Zhuang Xunzi. With that, Li Si saluted Ying Zheng again.
Ying Zheng hurriedly hugged Li Si and said, "Mr. doesn't have to be so polite. Since Mr. is also from the disciple of Mr. Zhuang Xunzi, the little sage Zhuang Xunzi, I take the liberty to ask, I don't know what the relationship between Mr. and the ninth prince Han Fei is? β
Li Si clenched his fists and said: "Han Fei is the senior brother of Xia, and he started two years earlier than Xia. β
Ying Zheng was overjoyed after hearing this, originally after going to South Korea to find Flame Spirit Ji this time, he was still thinking about how to abduct Han Fei to the Qin State, so that he could be used by the Qin State. Now, although he couldn't let Han Fei meet Qin Guo with him, he explained that Li Si, Han Fei's junior brother who was also outstanding, so that even if he left Qin State one day, he would be worthy of Qin State. Ying Zheng took Li Si's hand and said, "In this way, it is an honor for Ying Zheng to be able to meet Mr. Sturdy." Don't take it with you here, sir, please come in with me, so that I can also entertain Mr. As he spoke, he led people to Zilanxuan.
And Li Si's reaction surprised Yingzheng even more. I saw Li Si break away from Ying Zheng holding his hand, and when Ying Zheng was surprised by Li Si's move, Lizi knelt on the ground and bowed his head, saying: "Li Si is not talented, and he is willing to serve Wu Anjun as a dog and horse!" β
Not only Yingzheng, but even Gai Nie Yin Wei and others around him were also surprised. Ying Zheng looked at Li Si, who was kneeling on the ground, put away his previous polite look, and said, "So, do you know why I sent someone to find you?" β
Li Si knelt on the ground and clenched his fists and said: "Although Li Si is not talented, after all, he has studied the art of the Legalist for many years. Now among the six countries, only the Qin State can reuse the Fa family. At the same time, Li Si came from a humble background. Except for the Qin State, Li Si really doesn't know where else in the world can get ahead. And although Li Si is not talented, he is not as good as Zhang Zi and Shang Jun, but he is confident that this full of knowledge and Qin State can still be of some use. β
Ying Zheng pursed his lips after hearing this, and said, "What else?" β
Li Si looked at Yingzheng, and quickly lowered his head again and said: "Since the time of King Zhaoxiang, the Qin State has attacked the Six Kingdoms, and it is this time that the Six Kingdoms were destroyed and all returned to Qin. Looking at the world, among the scholars of the Six Kingdoms who are willing to serve the Qin State, except for a businessman from the Zhao State, I am afraid that there is no one else. And in today's Qin State, there are countless famous generals, but none of them can control the situation and integrate the Qin State. It is true that Li Si is a native of Chu State, and it is not false that Qin State has killed millions of fruit soldiers. However, Li Si was willing to be loyal to the Qin State and assist the Qin State in achieving great causes. Li Si is also confident that he has this ability. β
Ying Zheng lowered his head and looked at Li Si, and asked rhetorically: "Hearing you say this, it seems that you are more suitable to be the prime minister of the Qin State than the current Qin Prime Minister Lu Buwei." Do you know that there are many people who have said this over the years, but none of them ended well. β
Li Sichu also trembled when he heard Ying Zheng's words, but then calmed down and said, "Go back to Wu Anjun." Although LΓΌ Buwei is resourceful, although he is eloquent, he has no strategy. only wants to be rich, but does not want to leave a name behind him. Moreover, if the selfishness is too heavy, sooner or later it will be an obstacle on the way forward of the Qin State. It was only a matter of time before it was moved away by the Qin State. β
Ying Zheng couldn't help but sneer when he heard Li Si's words: "Listen to you, you are a person who doesn't care about your own wealth?" β
Li Si hurriedly kowtowed and said, "No! I want glory and wealth more than LΓΌ Buwei, and I am more selfish than LΓΌ Buwei. And I want more wealth and power, but I know it. If I want power and wealth, I must rely on the Qin State! Rely on King Qin! I have to rely on every King of Qin now and in the future! And it depends more on the Qin State. The more Qin Guo gets, the more I can get. So I will spare no effort to help the Qin State attack the Six Kingdoms, even if it is the Chu State, as long as the Qin State soldiers point out, I will pounce on it without hesitation! β
"Aren't you afraid that people in the world will say that you have betrayed your mother country and are disloyal and unfilial?" Ying Zheng asked again.
Li Si said with a smile: "If the State of Qin one day destroys the State of Chu, collects all the people of the State of Chu, and governs the land of the State of Chu, then the State of Chu will be the State of Qin, and the State of Qin will be the State of Chu, what is the difference between Li Si's allegiance to the State of Qin and his allegiance to the State of Chu!" β
Ying Zheng turned his head and stopped looking at Li Si, and asked again: "What do you think of what Han Fei said?" β
Li Si said without hesitation: "Whether it is sealed or not, what the king says is right is right, and what the king says is wrong is wrong." β
After hearing this, Ying Zheng smiled and looked at Li Si and said, "You go back with Yin Wei first, and he will settle you." In a few days, follow me to Qin Guo. β
"Xie Wu Anjun!" Li Si got up from the ground as he spoke, and left with Yin Wei. Yin Zhong also left with him.
Ying Zheng watched the two of them walk away, and asked Gai Nie and Flame Lingji beside him, "What do you think of this person?" β
Gai Nie looked at Li Si's distant back, pursed his lips unremittingly, and said, "A villain." Although he has talent, his character is not very good. Not enough to entrust the task. β
Flame Spirit Ji also said on the side: "I don't like this person either, he has no backbone at all. Giving milk is a mother! β
Ying Zheng sighed and said: "Indeed, this Li Si is talented but not virtuous, and he is a snob. I can assure you that if he hadn't met me in Korea, he would have turned to another country in order to get a high official position. But the more people like this, the more easy it is to use and can be used! Han Feizhi is worthy of a great responsibility, with both talent and morality, but can he be used by the Qin State? Xun Zishi's great talent, can it be used by the Qin State? Neither! Only a person like Li Si can be the arm of the Qin State, wielding a sword to fight against his mother country. β
As the two were talking, they heard that there was another disturbance in the hall of Zilanxuan. I only heard someone inside shouting, "Get jade!" Tell the jade girl to come out! βγ Ying Zheng heard the shouting, looked at Zi Lanxuan and frowned slightly, and said to Gai Nie and Flame Lingji: "You guys go back and rest first, I'll go see what's going on." Seeing that the two nodded, Ying Zheng walked in the direction of someone making trouble on the second floor.
Ying Zheng came to the second floor and saw a drunken man in a fancy costume and a beard on the second floor. Hong Yu and several other girls in Zilanxuan kept comforting him by his side, but he became more and more perverse. Ying Zheng shouted: "What's going on! β
A group of people were stunned when they heard Ying Zheng's voice, and the troublesome man turned around and saw Ying Zheng, and asked scoldingly, "Who are you?" Dare to take care of me! β
Hong Yu hurriedly came to Ying Zheng's side, bowed slightly and said, "Wu Anjun atoned for his sins." The guest drank too much and spoke a little louder, which disturbed Wu Anjun. Don't be surprised. β
