Chapter 20: He Can't Fight Greedy Humanity!

Li Si's words made Lu Buwei speechless.

Recently, Li Si has won the favor of Yingzheng, and he dares to openly argue with Lu Buwei in the court.

Most of the ministers of the DPRK and China just watched the two perform, but they never dared to stand in line easily.

In the face of such a power struggle, only by maintaining neutrality can we protect ourselves.

If they stand on the wrong side and offend one side, if one side gains power in the future, then their position in the court will be lost.

Above the court, a word can make a life, a word can also make people die, and only by being cautious in words and deeds can you settle down in the court.

Ying Zheng chuckled twice, looked at Lu Buwei's gaze, and said coldly: "The widow's mind has been decided, the decree will take effect immediately, all of them should step down!" ”

Lu Buwei was a little desperate, seeing that the nobles of the clan around him who had been wooed by him had retreated, he was really unwilling to retreat from the court.

Ying Zheng's sudden promulgation of this decree did not actually touch their interests in the eyes of many nobles, and even if it did, it was only after their deaths.

The king can keep the title and let their heirs inherit it, so that they are already grateful, who would think about what will happen after death?

When everyone withdrew from the main hall, Lu Buwei scolded the group of clan nobles in the court with a fierce voice.

"The prime minister is trying his best to fight for your interests, and you are all silent, are you going to be angry with the true appearance?"

"Xiangbang is angry, this decree issued by the king allows us to keep the title, which is a good thing for us, and we really have no reason to refuse."

Lu Buwei trembled with anger and said, "You guys are really blind! The king wants to use the title to paralyze you, to protect your title, but in fact to secretly weaken your position, this trick is really vicious! ”

"If you don't want your territory to be divided into smaller and smaller lands in a few decades, follow the Prime Minister to oppose this decree of the Great King."

"We're going to put pressure on the king to give up this decree."

After listening to Lü Buwei's analysis, this group of nobles suddenly wanted to oppose the promulgation of the decree with Lü Buwei.

"Xiangbang, then we will listen to you, and next time we will oppose the decree together in the court to build momentum for Xiangbang."

"The king has just been in charge of government, and he should have lacked experience, but now he has shown amazing political talent."

"The king is only in his early twenties, where can such a deep city come from, there should be a master behind him, and Xiangbang has to guard against it!"

Lü Buwei took a deep breath and said, "Like your suspicions, the current king is not what it used to be, and the talents he has displayed are shocking, and there must be amazing talents behind him to advise him. ”

"Recently, the king promoted and reused Li Si, it is said that this person was a guest in the Xiangbang Mansion before? Could it be that he is the master who points out the king? ”

Lü Buwei knew Li Si's talent very well, and with his little scheming, he would not have thought of such a poisonous plan.

And the master who was hiding behind Ying Zheng's guidance made Lü Buwei feel more and more uneasy.

If Ying Zheng really has such a master's guidance, then he and Ying Zheng will have no chance of winning in the open and secret battles in the court!

He must find a way to counter it and prevent Yingzheng's influence in the court from gradually surpassing his own.

……

Half a month later, the confident Lü Buwei ascended to the court.

But what he didn't know was that Ying Zheng took the initiative and caught him off guard in the court.

He wanted to continue to oppose the new decree issued by Yingzheng, expand his influence in the court, and avoid losing power in the court.

However, after he came out to raise his objections, he thought that he would get a response from the vast majority of the clan nobles.

But what he never expected was that none of these nobles were treacherous, and none of them stood up to echo him.

He risked the breakdown of his relationship with Yingzheng to fight for the interests of this group of people, but what about them, they actually chose to retreat at the critical moment?

Half a month ago, he vowed to unite the front, and half a month later he was silent in the court?

Lu Buwei knelt on the ground, feeling cold in his heart, feeling like a clown jumping off the beam!

He regretted that he had made a statement to Yingzheng for the sake of these short-sighted people.

Ying Zheng stood up angrily from his seat and said angrily: "Lu Xiang, why do you frequently oppose the widow? The widow is trying his best to keep the title of the nobleman of Zhuqing, Zhuqing has already accepted the decree, only you are still arguing on the basis of reason, what do you want? ”

Lü Buwei knew that his relationship with Yingzheng's monarch and minister had come to an end, so he buried his head and said: "This is for the king, for the sake of the Great Qin!" ”

Ying Zheng slammed the bamboo slip in his hand to the ground and roared: "You are against the widow like this, is it for yourself?" These impeachment notes against you have been suppressed for you. ”

"Because you are the widow's middle father, the widow wants to give you face. But now you are becoming more and more unscrupulous, more and more aggressive! ”

"If you don't exercise restraint again, don't blame the widow for not remembering the old feelings!"

After Yingzheng left angrily, only the ministers of the DPRK and China were left trembling.

The majesty of the kings frightened them!

is as powerful as Lü Buwei, and there is even a day when he was reprimanded by the king.

Lu Buwei hurriedly picked up the bamboo slips on the ground, looked at them carefully, and suddenly let out a crazy smile.

He immediately turned around and pointed at the nobles of the clan who were silent in the court, and said angrily: "Okay, good! All right! The Prime Minister did his best to fight for your interests, but you did a rake. ”

"Say that Ben is disrespectful to the king? Say that the prime minister despises the royal power? Say that the prime minister abuses power? That's a good point! ”

"My Lu Buwei's today is your tomorrow!"

Lu Buwei trembled with anger, smashed the bamboo slip to the ground fiercely, and glanced at all the clan nobles with angry eyes.

But how did he know that the new decree issued by Ying Zheng was the culprit that pushed him into the abyss.

Although Lü Buwei saw through this decree as a poisonous plan by Yingzheng to weaken the aristocracy, he couldn't fight against greedy human nature after all!

Because this decree was strongly supported by the sons and daughters of the nobles, most of the nobles wanted to profit from it, so more and more people supported the decree, and in less than half a month, it reached a situation where it was all right.

Even if these nobles knew that this was a poisonous plan, they could only choose to accept it helplessly, and silently agreed to the content of this decree.

This poisonous plan not only shook the foundation that Lü Buwei had worked so hard to build in the court, but also broke the relationship between him and Yingzheng's monarchs and ministers.

In this way, the power that Lü Buwei had built up in the DPRK and China collapsed under the promulgation of the new decree!

He lost a mess, he lost a lot!

Li Si walked in front of Lu Buwei and said lightly: "Xiang Bang is going to be angry, and in the future, Li Si will learn more from Xiang Bang how to assist the king." ”

Lu Buwei was so angry that he vomited blood by Li Si!

After all, a generation of heroes retired under the authority of Yingzheng......
