Chapter Sixty-Nine: Planning Longxi (I)
Shangguan Wan'er faced Qin II. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She was calm on the surface, but her heart was churning.
Shangguan Wan'er was born with a strong desire for power, and her dream from childhood to adulthood was to live up to her talent, like the famous people from ancient times to the present, one day she will be a great minister, have huge rights, and have a career of her own.
How easy is this kind of thing? Since ancient times, there have been countless great talents in the land of China, and how many of them have the ability to make meritorious contributions?
It is undoubtedly ten times more difficult for a woman to want power and merit.
In this era, what else can a woman do if she wants to climb up?
Eight years ago, when the Qin Palace recruited palace maids, Shangguan Wan'er took the initiative to run for election.
At that time, she had never seen Qin Shi Huang, and she didn't know what Qin Shi Huang looked like, she knew that Qin Shi Huang was the most powerful and eloquent overlord in the land of China, as long as she could get Qin Shi Huang's attention, what did it matter if she started from the most humble palace maid?
Shangguan Wan'er has absolute confidence in all aspects of herself.
In terms of talent, Daqin doesn't think that she is inferior to anyone except Prime Minister Li Si.
Even from the perspective of the woman herself, she has absolute confidence in her appearance and figure, she believes that as long as she is in the Qin Palace, all the palace maids and beauties will be compared, and this alone is enough to quickly attract His Majesty's attention.
Who would have thought.
Shangguan Wan'er thought things too simply.
The Qin Palace alone has a scale of tens of thousands of palace maids.
Shangguan Wan'er was born in Longxi, she has no relationship and no status in Xianyang in Guanzhong, and because she was too proud of her talent in her early years, she attracted all kinds of jealousy and criticism.
In the past eight years, Shangguan Wan'er has not even had the opportunity to meet the emperor, let alone being favored by the emperor.
Shangguan Wan'er was sent to the garden, and she could only play with flowers and plants all day long, the passion in her heart was consumed day by day, and the blood in her heart began to cool day by day, until Qin Shi Huang died violently during the parade, she didn't even see a person and said a word.
Qin II ascended the throne as emperor.
Shangguan Wan'er tried to seize the opportunity.
She began to write all kinds of advice, from the idea of governing the country to the policy of reform, hoping to attract attention, and the results can be imagined.
Not to mention that Zhao Gao covered the sky with one hand, these things couldn't be sent out at all.
Even if he is sent out, Qin II is a sloppy son, can he see these good policies for governing the country?
Shangguan Wan'er was imprisoned in the deep palace, for eight years, there was no improvement, empty ambitions, talents, ambitions, but there was no opportunity to display, this kind of nostalgia was the most painful, she thought that she might be buried forever, and she would do nothing in this life, how could she not feel extremely panic and despair?
Even as a woman, the best years are gradually passing, how can you not lose your soul?
She never expected it.
God finally responded.
In the process of Ziying being ordered to disband the palace maid of the Qin Palace, he found the letters and articles written by Shangguan Wan'er over the years, and he was immediately amazed at a glance, he never thought that there was such a talented person hidden in the Qin Palace, let alone that this person was actually just a little palace maid.
And so.
Shangguan Wan'er was activated.
Can she not be excited?
Can she not be nervous when facing Qin II?
She had been waiting for eight years, and finally this opportunity!
She couldn't wait to use all her means, she just hoped to get Qin II's satisfaction!
Will the Great Qin Empire State Building collapse? So what does it matter! Shangguan Wan'er not only didn't care, but felt that it was precisely because of this that she would have more opportunities to display her ambitions.
During the period of Qin Shi Huang, there were Meng Tian Wei in Wu, Li Si and Mengyi in Wen, and there were a large number of substitutes like Zhang Han, who were not famous but had amazing potential, how could she take the turn of a woman to take the throne?
The best result is nothing more than to become the emperor's side concubine and participate in government affairs as a harem.
Now, Daqin's talents are withering, and it coincides with the serious illness of the child and the relocation of Daqin to Longxi County, it is the time when Shangguan Wan'er plays a huge role, and she keenly feels that she may encounter a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Qin II was anything but simple.
He has the soul of the Great Qin Dragon Emperor, and he is the rightful emperor of Great Qin.
Secondly, he was able to put forward the strategic policy of moving west to Longxi and retreating to advance, and from Shangguan Wan'er's point of view, this strategy was extremely risky but extremely effective, requiring not only excellent vision, but also enough courage and courage.
Shangguan Wan'er doesn't care who Qin II was before, since he can inherit the Great Qin Dragon Soul, since he can propose this kind of strategy, he is not a mediocre lord, he is an emperor worthy of assistance!
............
When Qin Ge faced Shangguan Wan'er, she could actually feel that under the cold and glamorous appearance of this superb royal sister, there was actually a fiery heart hidden, and she was trying her best to express herself, just like a job seeker facing an interviewer.
Qin Ge was very happy and satisfied.
Shangguan Wan'er is the first summoned person who is willing to be loyal to him from the beginning.
He relied on flickering to get Diao Chan, and he relied on lure and flickering to get Li Kui and Hua Tuo.
This time, he didn't need to do anything, and he was able to directly get Shangguan Wan'er's active allegiance.
The Guardian Spirit once said that the risk of summoning is directly related to the ability of the Celestial Destiny, if the Celestial Destiny is very weak and has a very low reputation, but summons an extremely strong historical figure, at this time, it is impossible to directly control it, and it is easy to form a backlash risk.
Thus.
During this period of hard work, it has not been fruitless, and personal ability and prestige have improved, so there are no previous situations this time. Qin Ge believed that with the further improvement of his ability, not only Shangguan Wan'er would be in the future, but all the powerful ministers and famous generals would easily bow down in front of him.
Then again.
Shangguan Wan'er is a super talented woman.
He actually has a powerful Mo family junior sister.
This has to arouse Qin Ge's attention, because since the Warring States Period, the Mo family has weakened, the talent has withered, and because of the relationship between Qin Shi Huang repairing the imperial mausoleum and building the Great Wall, too many excellent craftsmen have died, and it has led to the rupture of the inheritance of the Mo school, and the direct result is that it is difficult to find excellent craftsmen.
Shangguan Wan'er is such a person who thinks very highly of herself.
The junior sister who actually admires her so much?
This person is definitely worth seeing, and it is definitely worth Qin Ge personally recruiting.
Shangguan Wan'er claimed that she and her junior sister had not seen each other for eight years, but occasionally exchanged letters, she knew that her junior sister had suffered from a strange disease since she was a child, she didn't like to go out, she didn't like to communicate with people, and now she was in Longxi County, she could introduce her majesty.
Longxi.
It's Longxi again.
This plan for retreating to Longxi must be implemented as soon as possible.
Qin II thought of this and decided to take the imperial sister in front of him: "Shu wants to retreat to Longxi not only to temporarily avoid the Chu army, but also because Shu is very curious about the Western Regions world, since you are proficient in more than a dozen Western Regions Chinese languages, and grew up in the Longxi region, you must have a deep understanding of the Western Regions, now tell me your opinion." ”
Your Majesty has begun to test me.
Shangguan Wan'er suddenly became serious.
She knew that her biggest advantage over others and even Ziying was her birth, and if Her Majesty wanted to retreat into Longxi, she would inevitably need her help, so the next conversation was very important to her.
"Longxi is relatively Guanzhong, remote and barren, the environment is relatively bad, but it is the origin of the Central Plains Chinese ancestors, the three emperors in Fuxi and Xuanyuan are from Longxi, there are Kunlun dragon veins and Yellow River dragon veins through Longxi, naturally leaving a lot of stories and legends, and bordering the mysterious Western Regions, so monsters are rampant, ruins everywhere, there are many alien races, very dangerous, Your Majesty wants to stand firm in Longxi, it is not easy, if you still try to explore the Western Regions, please forgive the slave maid bluntly, I am afraid it will be more difficult. ”
Longxi County itself is complex enough.
His Majesty the Emperor actually wants to explore the Western Regions?
How can Daqin have such a ability now!
However, since Qin II asked, the answer he wanted to hear was definitely not this, in Shangguan Wan'er's eyes, there was no difficult thing in this world, as long as he could do it step by step, anything that seemed incredible could be completed.
Shangguan Wan'er said directly: "However, based on Your Majesty's situation, the slave maid can put forward a three-level strategy by His Majesty, as long as this strategy is progressive, it may not be impossible to achieve His Majesty's goal, but these three-level strategies must be reduced in turn, and must not be carried out in order, otherwise it will only be more difficult and half the effort." ”
Qin Ge's eyes lit up slightly: "You just talk about it!"
"The first step is to win over the Li family in Longxi and stand firm. ”
"The second step is to occupy the Yellow River in Huaxia and control Longxi!
"The third step is to enter the Hexi Corridor and explore the Western Regions!"
Qin Ge was surprised.
Shangguan Wan'er began to explain the reasons in detail.
Among the strategies she thought of, the first step was to win over the Li clan in Longxi, which was imperative.
The forces in Longxi are intricate, there are many sects, natives, and aliens, although they are the old roots of the Qin people, but the folk customs are too fierce and definitely not easy to manage.
Qin II could not expose his identity, so he could only quietly return to Longxi, and if he entered too strongly, it would only disrupt the balance of power in Longxi, and eventually cause a backlash from the major forces.
Qin Ge's smartest approach was not to sweep Longxi, but to find a local force in the Longxi region, let this force become his spokesperson, and give this force enough support to let them deal with the intricate relationships, and finally achieve Qin Ge's goal.
Why did Shangguan Wan'er choose the Li family in Longxi?
This is obviously well thought out, the Li clan of Longxi is the Wang clan of Longxi, and it is the clan of Li Xin, the Marquis of Longxi.
Li Xin was originally a famous general of the Great Qin Empire, and in the process of Qin's annihilation of the Six Kingdoms, he made great contributions to Yan and killed the crown prince Dan with his own hands, avenging the assassination of Qin Shi Huang, so he was deeply valued by Qin Shi Huang.
Li Xin's performance later was unsatisfactory.
When Qin Shi Huang was full of ambition to destroy the Chu State, the first thing that came to mind was, of course, the old general Wang Qian, so he asked the old general Wang Jian how many soldiers and horses he needed if he wanted to destroy the Chu State? The old Wang Jian replied directly: At least 8.9 million!
Qin Shi Huang was not very satisfied, when Bai Qi attacked the Chu State, he only used tens of thousands of people to go deep alone, and he killed the capital of the Chu State, killed hundreds of thousands of people in the Chu State, occupied a large area north of the Yangtze River in the Chu State, and burned down the temples of the Chu State.
He then found Li Xin and asked Li Xin how many people he needed to destroy Chu?
Li Xin replied to Qin Shi Huang with confidence: The last general only needs 300,000 is enough!
Qin Shi Huang was very happy and let Li Xin take command, lead 300,000 troops, and attack the Chu State, and the result can be imagined.
Li Xin met Xiang Yu's grandfather, Xiang Yan, a famous general of the Chu State, and was defeated, suffering heavy casualties, and losing his teacher and humiliating the country.
This was the most painful blow suffered by Qin Shi Huang in the process of destroying the Six Kingdoms, and finally he had to re-invite the old god of war Wang Jian to let Wang Jian lead an army of nearly one million to go on the expedition, and finally killed Xiang Yan and successfully destroyed the Chu State.
At that time, according to the laws of the Qin State, Li Xin lost the battle, lost hundreds of thousands of troops, and would definitely be beheaded.
Qin Shi Huang did not kill Li Xin, but instead gave Li Xin the title of Marquis of Longxi, which is definitely a great grace, enough to make the Li family of Longxi must be grateful to Da Qin.
It will be easy for Qin Ge to subdue them, and the Li family in Longxi is a prominent family that has lived in Longxi County for generations, and it is also a family of generals, and the Western Han Dynasty has produced the flying general Li Guang, which is said to be the source of Li Tang, and now no one knows the situation in Longxi better than the Li family in Longxi.
If Qin II had the full support of the Li clan in Longxi.
He didn't need to do anything, and he would be able to gain a foothold in Longxi immediately.
Shangguan Wan'er really has a vicious eye, and this step of arrangement can be described as impeccable.
