Early the next morning, Lü Buwei came to Yingzheng's bedroom.

Ying Zheng took the lead in asking, "Father Zhong, what is the current situation of the Meng family?" ”

"All those in the city who should go to mourn have finished their condolences." Lü Buwei said, "But according to the king's order, if the body of General Meng is buried in the royal cemetery, it cannot be delayed, so the Meng family plans to leave tomorrow." ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "That's fine." Remember, be buried with the gift of a marquis. ”

"It's nature." Lu Buwei smiled and said, "I don't know if I am also a marquis, but the old minister can have this honor, and he can be buried in the royal cemetery after death." ”

"Lu Xiangbang is the widowed middle father, so naturally he is already a member of the royal family." Ying Zheng said very seriously.

"Hahaha......" Lu Buwei said with a smile, "The old minister is just joking, the king doesn't have to take it seriously." ”

"The widow is not laughing." Ying Zheng said solemnly, "Father Zhong is already a marquis, and his merits are no less than that of General Meng, not to mention that Father Zhong's homeland is also far away in Zhao State. ”

Lu Buwei was slightly stunned, and then said: "Since this is the case, then we will decide, after the old man is a hundred years old, the king will also bury the old man in the royal cemetery." ”

"It's a deal." Ying Zheng said very seriously.

"Oh, that's very good." Lu Buwei showed a slightly relieved expression, and then changed his words and said, "Your Majesty, there are important ministers in the court for funerals, can the wedding be postponed?" ”

Ying Zheng thought about it for a while and said, "It's okay, let's talk about it when the Meng family finishes taking care of General Meng's funeral." As for the date of the change, the middle father discussed it with the Queen Mother. ”

"It's just that in this way, the envoys of various countries will have to stay for a little longer." Lu Buwei said.

Speaking of envoys, Ying Zheng seemed to remember something: "Do you remember the middle father, on the day of the selection of concubines, when various countries presented national gifts, South Korea offered the opening of the canal?" ”

"Of course, the old minister remembered that at that time, the king said that he wanted to think about it before discussing, and the old minister was busy preparing for the affairs of the king's trip, so he never had time to discuss this matter with the king." Lu Buwei said.

"What does Father Zhong think about this matter?" Ying Zheng asked.

"According to the old minister, this move is indeed a success." Lu Buwei stroked his beard, as if thinking about a problem, "However, it is suffering in the world." ”

"Why are you suffering in the world?" Ying Zheng asked.

Lü Buwei sighed slightly and said: "If this canal is built, thousands of fertile fields will be irrigated, the treasury will definitely be more enriched, and our army will definitely have more confidence to fight against other countries." However, this canal opening project is extremely huge and cannot be completed in a year and a half, so the process of construction will inevitably consume a lot of money, silver and manpower, and the people along the way will also suffer varying degrees of losses. The pros and cons are like this, and how to decide is still expected to be carefully weighed by the king. ”

When Ying Zheng thought of South Korea's proposal to repair the canal, he had already made a plan in his heart.

Ying Zheng was really hesitant before, but now that he has the original grain seed given by the old man in his hand, Ying Zheng must cultivate the second generation of original seeds in a short time. Then the canal will have to be repaired.

"Does the middle father focus on cultivation, or does he not cultivate?" Ying Zheng asked.

"It is a good thing to build a canal, but if the king really has the world in mind, he should not increase the burden on the treasury and the people at this time, and it is not impossible to leave this canal for future generations to repair." Lu Buwei said.

"The widow understands what the middle father means, and after the widow thinks about it, he will decide on this matter." Ying Zheng said.

Lü Buwei arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, what should be done about the assassination of people sent by Wei this time?" ”

Lü Buwei thought that Ying Zheng would ask him what his opinion was, but Ying Zheng said directly: "Since the widow has returned to the court, immediately arrest the two assassins who fled at that time and related people, etc., and be sure to torture and interrogate them to determine the truth. ”

"The old minister obeys the king's orders." Lu Buwei arched his hand and said.

"Also, order the princesses and envoys of the Wei State to return to Wei immediately, and they must not take half a step into the Qin State." Ying Zheng said indignantly.

"This ......" Lu Buwei obviously didn't expect Yingzheng to be so decisive, but after thinking about it for a while, he turned to say, "Since the war is about to start, it should be so." It's just that this person is the one to lead the troops......"

"Yesterday in Huayang Palace, the Queen Mother talked to the widow about this matter." Ying Zheng said, "And the candidate recommended by the Queen Mother, presumably the middle father can't guess it." ”

"Oh? Who is recommended by the Queen Mother? Lu Buwei asked suspiciously.

Ying Zheng said: "The widow's brother Wang, Chang'an Jun Chenghuan." ”

"Oh." Lu Buwei really didn't expect Mrs. Huayang to recommend letting Cheng Huan lead the troops into battle, but he didn't seem to be too surprised.

"Actually, Grandmother Wang is not recommending, but she just said that Cheng Huan has a wish, that is, to fight on the battlefield like General Meng, and Grandmother Wang just doesn't want Cheng Huan's wish to be disappointed." Ying Zheng explained.

"The old minister thinks that if he sends Cheng Huan to fight, it is okay." Lu Buwei thought about it for a while and said.

Ying Zheng thought that Lü Buwei would not agree to Cheng Huan as the commander to lead the troops to attack Wei, but he didn't expect Lü Buwei to agree.

"What does the middle father mean to agree to Cheng Huan to lead the army to battle?" Ying Zheng asked.

Lu Buwei nodded and said, "Young man, you have to temper more, otherwise how will he help the king fight on the battlefield in the future and level the four seas." ”

"In this way, a court meeting will be held in a few days, and I will listen to everyone's opinions on the use of troops by Wei State, and also ask Cheng Huan what he means." Ying Zheng said.

"After the old minister goes back, he will arrange it immediately." Lu Buwei said.

"Also, the widow has married a lot of princesses in this big wedding, so ......," Ying Zheng said slightly embarrassed, "The widow wants to build a temporary dormitory immediately for the princesses to live in." ”

"If the king wants to add some bedrooms, it is not impossible, but this construction period, I am afraid that it will not be able to catch up, after all, the wedding period cannot be delayed for too long." Lu Buwei said.

"In terms of time, it's a bit tight." Ying Zheng said, "Isn't there a lot of skilled craftsmen in the middle father's place, if some are transferred, it should be in time." ”

Lu Buwei said with a smile: "The old minister is really old and confused, he forgot about it, those craftsmen are the top craftsmen in the world, and there are quite a few of them, if they are allowed to participate in it, the construction period will be greatly shortened." ”

"Even if the construction is not completed, it doesn't matter, when the construction is completed, when you live in it, and it will not delay the marriage." Ying Zheng said.

"The old minister will make this arrangement tomorrow, and it must be completed before the wedding." Lu Buwei said.

"In this way, there will be Lao Zhong's father." Ying Zheng said politely.

After the deliberation of the discussion, Lü Buwei resigned and left the palace.

Not long after Lu Buwei left, Cheng Huan entered the door.

"Brother Wang, I heard that you are going to send troops to attack Wei?" Before he walked up to Ying Zheng, Cheng Huan asked eagerly.

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Not bad." You must have also heard that the Wei State sent people to pretend to be Chu people to assassinate widows, which was extremely arrogant. How could the widow not let Wei pay a little price. ”

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, he saw Cheng Huan kneeling on one knee, and bowed his hand and said: "Brother Cheng Huan, please lead the troops to fight in Wei, if you can't win, I am willing to come and see you." ”

Ying Zheng stepped forward to help Cheng Huan get up, and said: "You are still young, and you have not yet reached the age of leading the troops to fight, besides, the widow is such a royal brother as you, if something happens to you, how can the widow explain to the queen mother." ”

Cheng Huan didn't get up, and said stubbornly: "If Brother Wang doesn't agree, Cheng Huan won't be able to kneel for a long time." ”

Seeing that Cheng Huan was so resolute, Ying Zheng had no choice but to soften his tone and said: "The widow has ordered Lu Xiangbang to convene a court meeting to discuss the matter of sending troops to attack Wei. Now that you haven't even made a decision on whether to send troops or not, what's the use of you asking for your life here. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Huan stood up and said, "Then if the matter of the war against Wei is confirmed, Brother Wang must send me to fight." ”

Ying Zheng dragged Cheng Huan to the seat and sat down.

"The widow wants to know, what are you so determined to fight?" Ying Zheng asked gently.

"Brother Chen heard that the reason why Wei dared to assassinate Brother Wang was because he had heard the news that General Meng was seriously ill." Cheng Huan said, "And now that General Meng is gone, I expect that the Wei State that was scared by General Meng will not give up, even if Brother Wang does not send a large army to conquer Wei, Wei will take advantage of this opportunity to send troops to recover the lost territory." ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said: "What you said has some truth, I'm afraid that if we don't send troops to attack Wei, I'm afraid that Wei will be ready to attack." ”

"Brother Wang also knows that his younger brother has always admired General Meng very much, and regards General Meng as a flaunt." Cheng Huan said emotionally, "Therefore, the ideal of the younger brother is to become a hero like General Meng, fight in the south and the north, and make meritorious contributions." And now, the younger brother wants to prove to the world that although General Meng Lao is immortal, someone has inherited the will and prestige of General Meng, which will also make the enemy army fearful. That person's name is Cheng Huan. ”

Cheng Huan's words were very domineering, and even Ying Zheng was moved.

"Well, your mind is already clear to the widow." After a short silence, Ying Zheng said, "In a few days' court meeting, you will say your thoughts, hoping that the secretaries will have a correct resolution." ”

"If the ministers don't agree to the ministers' brother to fight, what will the brother treat the king?" Cheng Huan still asked suspiciously.

Ying Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Let me tell you the truth, the Queen Mother recommended you to fight to the widow." And before you came, Lu Xiangbang had just left from here, and he also suggested that you could give it a try. The widow is just worried about your safety, so he can't make a decision yet. ”

Hearing Ying Zheng say this, Cheng Huan felt confident: "So that's the case, Brother Wang doesn't have to worry about the safety of his brother, as long as his brother's master is guarding him, his brother will definitely be safe and sound." ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said: "This matter, let's make a decision when the court is discussed, I haven't seen you for a month, let's compare and match, if you win, the widow will no longer worry." ”

"Okay." Cheng Huan replied very happily.

The two brothers found an empty room, took off their coats, and fell.

Nearly an hour passed, and the sweaty brothers sat on the ground panting for air.

"The basic skills of the widow are still not as good as yours." After taking a breath, Ying Zheng said.

"Although Brother Chen won, I feel that Brother Wang's strength is much greater than last time, and his endurance has also increased significantly. What supplements has Brother Wang taken outside during this time? Cheng Huan said teasingly.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Ying Zheng suddenly thought of the red pill that the old man in white gave him in the cave.

The old man said that this pill can not only resist the damage of abnormal light, but also has great benefits for the body.

In the few days on the way, Ying Zheng ate one every day according to the old man's instructions, could this be the reason why Ying Zheng's strength and endurance have been strengthened a little?

Whatever, since it's not a poison, even if it doesn't do much good, at least it's not harmful, and it's still given away for free, so why don't you eat it.

"Hungry, let's go, let's eat." Ying Zheng got up and said.

Cheng Huan nodded: "My stomach has already screamed." ”

Ying Zheng pulled Cheng Huan, and the brothers climbed their shoulders and went out.
