Ying Zheng looked at the six words written by Li Si on the bamboo slip, stared at it for a long time, combined with the exquisite map given to him by the old man in white, and deduced in his mind the route of the Qin army's march and the problems that might arise when attacking each country.

Li Si saw that Yingzheng was engrossed, and didn't bother him, just took a sip of tea from time to time.

When Ying Zheng retracted his thoughts, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then he rolled the bamboo slip and put it on the bookshelf.

"Sir, it will take time to conquer the nations, but we can discuss it slowly in the future." Ying Zheng turned around and said, "The top priority is to quickly order Lu Xiangbang to prepare a generous gift and send it to the nations. ”

Li Si bowed his head and said: "In this case, the king needs to send a decree to Lu Xiangbang first, explain the reason, and then repair a letter to the kings of various countries to show his sincerity." ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, the widow first wrote a will to Lu Xiangbang, you sent it, by the way, probe his tone, and then let him select the envoys who traveled." ”

"Wechen takes orders." Li Si arched his hand and said.

Ying Zheng took out the Wang seal, wrote the will, and covered the Wang seal on it, and advised: "Help the widow pay attention to which people Lu Xiangbang has chosen to be envoys." ”

How can Li Si not understand Yingzheng's thoughts, the envoys have always been fat, although there are occasional risks, but the two countries are still at war, not to mention that if they perform well enough, the monarchs of the two countries will be rewarded, if they are not willing to do so in their own country, but they also build a bridge for switching to other countries.

Therefore, Lü Buwei chose someone to be an envoy, and he must be his confidant. Knowing which people are Lü Buwei's henchmen, it will be much easier to deal with Lü Buwei in the future.

Li Si took the will and went out to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Ying Zheng thought that Lu Buwei would not disagree, but it would take some time to prepare for the national ceremony, so he was not in a hurry to send letters to various countries, so he tidied up a little and returned to his bedroom.

Princess Nansu had already finished freshening up and was waiting for Yingzheng to come back for breakfast.

Ying Zhengdao had already eaten it himself, but he still had breakfast with Princess Nansu, and he just drank some hot soup.

"Nansu, the widow wants to give your father some dowry, what do you say should be given?" Ying Zheng asked tentatively.

Princess Nansu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "In the deep courtyard of the palace, there is still a shortage of property, the king will send some subordinates, just send some casually." ”

"How's that going to work?" Ying Zheng said sincerely, "If it's another country, it's okay for the widow to send something casually, but for your home country, it's okay." ”

Princess Nansu bumped more than a dozen deer around in her heart, and her heart was rippling, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be concealed.

Ying Zheng thought for a while, and then said: "The widow will prepare some generous gifts for the king of Chu, and he will also personally repair a book to express his gratitude." ”

"Father Xie, what's the matter?" Princess Nansu asked knowingly, as if she was expecting Yingzheng to say something.

Ying Zheng held Princess Nansu's Yi and said softly: "Once the king of Chu marries his daughter, the widow will finally fulfill his wishes; Second, the king of Xie Chu garrisoned troops to help the widows quell the rebellion; These three thanks, then Xie Chu people are outstanding people, and there are a number of talents for the use of widows, if there is no Changpingjun and others this time, the situation is bound to be difficult to control. ”

Ying Zheng originally wanted to say that Li Si appeared in the Chu State, and people like Jing Fan were used by him, but he felt that it was not very suitable, so he temporarily changed his words.

"Since it is his own family, why should the king be polite." Princess Nansu said softly, "I don't know if the garrison sent by my father to the border has withdrawn." ”

"The widow will send someone to investigate first, and then write a letter to your father, if the border is fine, let the king of Chu withdraw his troops and go back, after all, Zhao and Wei have already withdrawn." Ying Zheng said.

Yingzheng knew that Lü Buwei was definitely paying close attention to the movements of the Chu army, so just ask Lü Buwei, as for the intention of the king of Chu not to withdraw the army, there is no need to pay attention to it, anyway, the king of Chu does not dare to fight, although the king of Chu is still angry about Yingcheng.

After breakfast, Ying Zheng took Princess Nansu to Huayang Palace to greet Mrs. Huayang.

Ying Zheng explained to Mrs. Huayang that she wanted to present state appointments to the nations, and asked Mrs. Huayang to set the wedding date as soon as possible, so that she could explain it to the countries.

Mrs. Huayang smiled and said: "On the day of the king's wedding, the mourning family has already been selected, and Lu Xiangbang's side has also been ventilated, and it is scheduled for April 19, what does the king want." ”

Ying Zheng calculated in his heart that there were still more than forty days, which was enough to deal with the affairs of various countries, and presumably the repair period of the Gucheng Palace would be more generous, so he immediately responded: "Everything is subject to the will of the king's grandmother." ”

Mrs. Huayang nodded, her eyes unconsciously looked at Princess Nansu's stomach, smiled uncontrollably, and then chatted about family life.

Looking at Mrs. Huayang's state, Ying Zheng felt a lot more at ease, felt less guilty, and had less worry.

Coming out of Huayang Palace, both of them remembered Princess Hu Yu, and Ying Zheng took Princess Nansu directly to Mrs. Xia's residence.

Mrs. Xia and Princess Hu Yu were chatting, talking about some of the customs of Zhao Kingdom, Princess Hu Yu described it with a smile, but there was also some homesickness between her eyebrows. Seeing Yingzheng enter the door, Princess Hu Yu got up and gave up her seat.

After greeting Mrs. Xia, Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I don't know if Hu Yu is here with my grandmother, but he is still well-behaved?" ”

"Good, of course." Mrs. Xia looked at Princess Hu Yu with a smile, then at Princess Nansu, and said, "These two granddaughters-in-law are really good." ”

Princess Nansu smiled lightly and lowered her head slightly, but Princess Hu Yu squinted at Yingzheng rather mischievously.

"If only Grandmother liked it." Ying Zheng paused for a moment and said, "What my grandmother said yesterday, my grandson has already sent someone to do it, and I used this to make a national appointment gift to the countries, and the Queen Mother also set the wedding date, which is April 19. ”

"April 19." Mrs. Xia whispered, "It's a good day, and everything is in a hurry." ”

Ying Zheng saw that Mrs. Xia also agreed, and she had no doubts, and said happily: "In this way, the widow will announce to the world that on April 19, the king of Daqin will marry and take a concubine!"

After that, Ying Zheng happily looked at Princess Nansu and Princess Hu Yu again.

The two of them are even more beautiful, with ruddy faces and delicate faces.

After all, Princess Nansu was not as embarrassed as Princess Hu Yu, and said softly: "It's time for Nansu to accompany Grandmother today, the king should prepare for Sister Hu Yu as soon as possible, the Queen Mother's maids are also staying in Huayang Palace, now is the right time."

When Princess Hu Yu heard this, her ears turned even redder and she didn't make a sound.

Ying Zheng thought of Hu Yu's style of riding a horse and archery, and then looked at her current shy appearance, and couldn't help but laugh secretly.

Mrs. Xia knew that although what Princess Nansu said was the truth, she secretly meant to ridicule, not to mention that this kind of thing was not appropriate after all, so she hurriedly relieved the siege and said: "Your Majesty, this is not a trivial matter, go back and prepare properly, stay until later, let Yingfu send Hu Yu over, and now, let the two princesses accompany the old man for a while."

Ying Zheng has a step, so he naturally wants to go down: "My grandson obeys the order, so I will go back and prepare."

When he went out, Yingzheng was not thinking about Princess Hu Yu, but about how to send letters to the nations. Diplomacy with other countries is not a trivial matter, and Lü Buwei's opinion should still be listened to.

Back in the dormitory, Lu Buwei was waiting at the door of the study.

Before Li Si went to the Lu Mansion with Ying Zheng's will, Lu Buwei knew that the letter written by Ying Zheng was sincere, but he was afraid that Ying Zheng would make a mistake in his busyness, so he entered the palace with Li Si.

"The middle father is coming quickly." Ying Zheng said while looking at Lu Buwei.

Lü Buwei also made a gesture of invitation, and said: "The old minister knows the affairs of the countries quite clearly, and he has come to help the king."

Ying Zheng nodded, turned around and took out the letter to King Zhao, and handed it to Lu Buwei: "This is a letter written by a widow to King Zhao, please take a look at it first."

Lu Buwei respectfully accepted the letter and read it.

Taking advantage of Lu Buwei's efforts to read the letter, Yingzheng went out and explained something to Zhao Gao before returning to the study.

After reading the letter, Lü Buwei asked Xiang Yingzheng: "Is this letter written by the king himself?"

"What's so hard about writing a letter?" Ying Zheng asked a little puzzled.

Lu Buwei laughed and said: "Yes, yes, the sense of proportion is excellent, presumably in this lifetime of King Zhao, there will be no more incidents."

"It's not necessarily, I think that King Zhao has soft ears and is not very principled." Ying Zheng said.

"It doesn't matter, the old minister will arrange for the envoy to meet with Guo Kai first, and Guo Kai will arrange other things." Lu Buwei said confidently.

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "The method that the middle father said is feasible, and some of the national gifts will be distributed to the ministers of the countries so that they can be used in the future."

Lü Buwei should claim to be so, and his expression was determined.

Ying Zheng was secretly happy in his heart, in this way, he not only had insight into Lü Buwei's lineage, but also bought off the powerful ministers of other countries, killing two birds with one stone, and it was really cost-effective to spend some money.

"It's better than that." Ying Zheng said quite calmly: "The widow knows a lot about Zhao Guo, so he writes the letter smoothly, but several other countries dare not say that now the widow first wrote the first draft in bamboo slips, which was reviewed by the middle father, and after trimming, the widow copied it on the brocade silk."

"That's very good." Lu Buwei nodded and said, "The old minister is the king's inkstone." ”

sorted out the bamboo slips, and Ying Zheng wrote them one after another, occasionally with a ston, but also quite quickly.

Lü Buwei revised one after another, but the overall changes were not very large.

Lü Buwei put aside the altered bamboo slips and personally wrote a letter to a certain important minister of each country.

Ying Zheng took Lü Buwei's revised bamboo slips, and copied them on the brocade silk after a little glance.

The two of them worked hard and were very busy.

At noon, Ying Zheng and Lü Buwei shared some lunch, and after summing it up, he ordered Zhao Gao to call Li Si to sort out the letters together.

Li Si didn't have too many objections to the content of the letter, but just took a general look, after all, what Lu Buwei had carefully modified, if he put forward some other opinions, it would be inappropriate after all, not to mention that the content written by Ying Zheng had been discussed with Li Si before.

"Your Majesty, Lu Xiangbang, and Weichen feel that since the number of national gifts is expected to increase, then the type of national gifts selected this time should be put into some thought, otherwise this letter will only make the nations happy for a while." Lees said.

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and asked: "The so-called national gifts are nothing more than some gold, silver, jewelry, jade horses, etc., I don't know what Mr. thinks?" ”

Lu Buwei also looked at Li Si suspiciously, waiting for his answer.

Li Si smiled and said: "These treasures, if they are given away, will consume the national strength of Great Qin, and enrich the barns of other countries. Wechen suggested that we should send some things that are not expensive but have never been seen in other countries. ”

Hearing Li Si say this, Ying Zheng subconsciously glanced at the inner room of the study, knowing that Li Si would not tell the things in the inner room that had never been seen by other countries in front of Lu Buwei, but he was also wondering what Li Si was referring to.

Li Si looked at Lü Buwei and said: "In the past, those craftsmen in Lu Xiangbang's mansion are now gathered in the Jing kiln, in order to repay the kindness of Great Qin, and unite the talents of the craftsmen, they have made some utensils, which are quite exquisite, presumably they have never been seen in other countries." ”

Lu Buwei frowned, and said in his heart: What kind of utensils, it will be more noble than the gold bottle and silver cup.

Ying Zheng seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "The widow has seen it, but I don't know if Mr. has a sample." ”

"Your Majesty, Lu Xiangbang, please wait." With that, Lees turned and walked out of the door of the study.

After a short time, Li Si carried a wooden box into the house, placed it on the ground, and opened it immediately.

Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei came up to watch at the same time, and this look couldn't help but make the two stunned.
