Chapter 72: The secret room is planned, and the evil sword is quietly unsheathed
"Kang'er, your queen mother has come to see you again." Lü Buwei shouted into the middle room.
The Kang'er that Lü Buwei shouted in his mouth was Ying Sikang, the prince of Qin. Since the birth of Ying Sikang, Zhao Ji has found a warlock to see, thinking that the prince's life is not compatible with the palace, if he lives in the palace for a long time, I am afraid that he will have to worry about his life, so the king of Qin decided to foster the prince in Lü Buwei's mansion, worship Lü Buwei as the prince's 'second father', and Lü Buwei is responsible for raising and teaching, and King Qin and Zhao Ji just visit him from time to time.
"Yes, Father." A crisp voice came from the room, the door opened, and out of it came a young white boy, although he looked a little immature, but his eyes exuded a keen gaze like an eagle, and he was heroic.
"Kang'er, I haven't seen you for a few days, you have become much stronger again, can everything be okay these days? I really miss my mother. Zhao Ji, who was outside the door, had already taken three steps and hurriedly stepped into the inner courtyard in two steps. Sikang hurriedly greeted him, kowtowed, and said: "I am worried about my mother, and my son has my father here to take care of and teach, everything is fine, but I often miss my mother and father."
Zhao Ji hugged Sikang after hearing this, and sobbed: "This warlock, talking nonsense about what is not in line with my life, causing my mother and son to be separated, it is really hateful." Lu Buwei hurriedly said: "Don't be sad, the queen must not be sad, people's lives have their own destiny, and all this is for the sake of the prince and Daqin." Besides, the palace is not far from my palace, and the queen can come and meet the prince at any time. Sikang also continued to comfort him, so Zhao Ji gradually held back her tears, took Sikang's hand and kept looking up and down.
After a while, Lü Buwei stepped forward and said, "Queen Qiqi, the prince still has to read and exercise in the morning, can you take it to freshen up and eat first?" When Zhao Ji heard this, she reluctantly let go of the prince and was taken to the front hall by her subordinates.
After the crown prince left, Lü Buwei whispered to Zhao Ji: "The lord has important instructions, and I also ask the queen to move to the secret room." Zhao Ji hurriedly followed Lü Buwei to the secret room.
When he came to the secret room, Lü Buwei handed the secret letter sent by Chen Xiang to Zhao Ji, and Zhao Ji looked at it and said: "My brother Ji Kang is old, but he still has to work hard in the south, I don't know if my body is okay?" The letter said that the Qin State is now aggressive, and the Hua State is not able to compete with it, and it will take a while to recuperate, what is the best plan for the Xiangguo? ”
After Lu Buwei took the secret letter and burned it, he said: "I received the secret letter the day before yesterday, and I thought about it for a long time. The Qin State has been changing the law for a long time, and although it missed the Shang Dynasty in the middle, its reform has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has not had much impact on the development of the Qin State. Nowadays, although the king of Qin is indulging in lustful dogs and horses, Li Si presides over the overall situation in the court, formulates and improves the national law, and rules the country by law, and the Qin state is orderly and thriving; In the army, there were a number of loyal and brave generals such as Li Xin and Wang Ben who led the troops to fight abroad, and the Qin army was still invincible and invincible. ”
Zhao Ji frowned when he heard this, and said: "It's a pity that Li Si and Li Xin's disciples are dedicated to Qin, and it is difficult for me to use them, it is really tricky." Lü Buwei took a step forward and said, "For today's plan, we can only use the power of the Queen's Huaxia Society." Zhao Ji asked anxiously: "What arrangement does Xiangguo want to make?" Lü Buwei replied: "I want to arrange for Zhang Han to take up his post on the northwest border, so that he can resist the dog Rong and make meritorious contributions, and then seek to seize military power with military merits, hoping to compete with Li Xin and Wang Ben and delay the time for the Qin army to attack Huaguo; As for Li Si, I think that Zhao Gao can take advantage of his official duties to deliberately get close to Li Si, so as to gain an in-depth understanding, wait for the opportunity to seize the handle, and then put him in a situation from which he will never recover. ”
Zhao Ji thought it was true, took out two Huaxia orders from his arms and handed them to Lu Buwei and said, "This matter is handed over to Xiangguo with full authority." In addition, Li You, the son of Li Si, has a heavy army outside, so he has to be guarded, and we need to get rid of him before we kill the Li family. Lü Buwei replied: "Don't worry, the queen, I have my own arrangements over there, and Li You may be able to help me bring down Li Si with heavy troops."
Zhao Ji felt a little relieved, continued to discuss with Lu Buwei, and came out of the secret room, at this time the prince's morning reading and morning exercise should be almost over, and she still had to talk to her precious son.
