Chapter 19: The New King and the Reign
LΓΌ Buwei stood up and said, "King, what the Taishi said is correct. β
"The six countries of Kwantung have united, so that the land outside the Qin State has no foothold, if the alliance of the six countries is not broken, then the momentum of Qindong will be strangled in the cradle."
Meng Wei stood up and said, "King, the last general is willing to garrison Hangu Pass and look for an opportunity to attack Yichuan, Sanchuan and other places. β
Ying Zheng looked at Yan Yan.
Yan Yan: "King, in addition to General Meng's garrison at Hangu Pass to find an opportunity, we should also send envoys to Baiyue and Xiongnu. β
A gleam flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and he looked at Yan Yan and said, "What does the teacher mean?" β
Yan Yan nodded and said, "The Xiongnu are close to Yan and Zhao, we can make it advantageous for them to attack the two countries and hold the two countries south." β
"Baiyue is close to the Chu State, let the people of Baiyue fight with the Chu State, and hold the Chu army when it goes north."
"Then he sent envoys to Qi State, and Xu Yili Qi broke off the friendship with Han and Wei, so that Han and Wei had no reinforcements, and they were bound to slowly spit out the territory they swallowed under the offensive of the Qin army, and return it to Qin."
Zhi Su Nei Shi Feng stood up and said, "The king, the minister has something to do." β
Ying Zheng said," Aiqing said. β
Feng Quji: "King, after this defeat of the Qin State, the army is all new army, I am afraid it will be difficult to support the war, and the tax exemption of the first king will not end for a year." β
Feng went to salute and said, "I am afraid it will be difficult to support the big battle in a short period of time." β
LΓΌ Buwei also stood up and said, "King, what the history of Zhisu is said is correct, the treasury of the Qin State is already in danger, and if a big war is to start, I am afraid it will be difficult to support the army." β
Ying Zheng wanted to say something, but Yan Yan stopped him.
Yan Yan: "King, since both Xiangguo and Zhisu Neishi have said that the treasury is in danger and is not conducive to war, it is better to put the war matters aside first. The restoration of people's livelihood and the training of new troops will be the policy of the next Qin state. β
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Xiangguo estimates how long it will take for the Qin State to recover enough to fight." β
LΓΌ Buwei said, "Three years at the fastest, five years at the slower." β
Ying Zhengdao, "Since Xiangguo, Zhisu Neishi, and Taishi all think that it is not suitable for Qin to go to war, then let Han and Wei go for the time being." β
Yan Yan: "King, the war cannot be carried out, but the matter of the envoy can still be advanced. β
Lu Buwei nodded and said, "The minister agrees with the Taishi's proposal. β
"The German alliance of the six countries must be broken, and when the Qin army and horses recover, it will be the time to go east."
Ying Zheng looked at the pawn Cai Ze and said, "Cai Xiang, I will leave the matter of disintegrating the six countries to you." β
The pawn Cai Ze saluted and said, "The minister will live up to the king's trust." β
"Scattered."
In the apse of Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng sat opposite Yan Yan, he looked at Yan Yan and said, "Teacher, why don't you let me tell me about potatoes and sweet potatoes." β
Yan Yan said, "These two crops are not enough, and the teacher strives to cultivate them to a sufficient amount before you ascend the throne as a gift for your enthronement." β
"Qin has these two things, and food will no longer be Qin's problem."
Ying Zheng said: "Does the teacher think that the Qin State really needs five years to go east as Lu Buwei said?" β
Yan Yan nodded and said, "If you can, the time can be stretched longer." β
Ying Zheng said: "Please ask the teacher for advice." β
Yan Yan "If you want to go outside, you must first settle inside." β
Yan Yan looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Do you think that today's Qin State has the potential to swallow the Six Kingdoms?" β
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Yes." β
Yan Yan: "Then how long do you think it will take for the Qin State to destroy the Six Kingdoms." β
Ying Zheng thought for a while, "The war went smoothly for five years, and the war was lost for ten years." β
Yan Yan said: "Then do you think you have the talent to govern the world?" β
Ying Zheng lowered his head this time and did not answer.
Yan Yan said: "What you learn the most from my side is the art of life, the method of controlling people. β
"And now what you have to learn is the way to govern the world."
Ying Zheng: "Please ask the teacher for advice." β
Yan Yan "Taoist Lao Tzu's rule by inaction, Confucian Confucius's rule by respect, the five elements of the Yin and Yang family are mutually reinforcing and mutually restrained, the Guigu faction's vertical and horizontal theory, the Korean Shen is harmless's law and technique, Shang Ying's law under the Qin State, Fan Ju's long-distance and close attack technique, the Mohist theory of love, non-attack, and benevolence, Yang Zhu's noble self, rebirth, and no loss to benefit the world are all Taos. β
"And what you have to do is to understand these doctrines, find your way, and apply them to the means of your affairs to govern the world."
"The doctrine of Tai Chi that I let you learn is the combination of rigidity and softness, and the same is true for the symbiosis of yin and yang."
"To govern the world, we cannot blindly use tyranny, nor can we blindly use benevolent government, the law cannot be cruel, and the law cannot be light."
Ying Zheng: "The teacher thinks that there are still problems with the current policy of the Qin State. β
Yan Yan said, "This is nature, there is no two-way law in the world, and any law is changing all the time according to time, place, and space. β
"In troubled times, heavy punishments are used in prosperous times, and benevolent government is used to govern the world."
Ying Zheng said: "Teacher, please axe the law of the Qin State." β
Yan Yan shook his head and said, "I'm not proficient in the Fa, and participating in it will only get more and more chaotic, so you need to figure out how to do it yourself." β
Ying Zheng looked up at Yan Yan and said, "Is there anything else the teacher doesn't know?" β
Yan Yan nodded, "I'm also human, and it's normal to not know things." β
"But in the eyes of Xiao Zheng, the teacher is an all-knowing person, who knows how to live, knows the general trend of the world, and knows the government and military. β
Yan Yan interrupted Ying Zheng's words, "These are always small roads, and they are not enough to become the avenues for governing the world." β
"The avenue is invisible and endless, and no one can understand it tragically."
"Back then, Shang Ying changed the law in the Qin State, making the Qin State a powerful country in the world in one fell swoop, but you see now, in addition to the fact that the military merit system has not been canceled because there are still wars in the world, how much of the law of the year has been inherited."
"Fan Ju's strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack allowed the Qin State to disintegrate and attack the six Kwantung countries one by one, but this time you see, the next time the six countries of Shandong jointly attack Qin, this policy still loses its meaning."
Yan Yan watched the waves drift away in the wind.
Yan Yan said, "Adapt to the time and the situation." β
Ying Zheng nodded.
The two of them looked up together and watched the wind take away the sky waves and sprinkle wisps of sunshine.
Yan Yan said, "You want to form your own intelligence force, the ice flame in my hand is not worthy of your trust, understand?" β
Ying Zheng said: "Does the teacher help me manage it?" β
Yan Yan shook his head.
Ying Zheng said, "Xiao Zheng plans to form an intelligence force, which will follow him like a shadow, and he will be loyal to him. β
"Xiao Zheng plans to call it the Shadow Guard, what do you think, teacher?"
Yan Yan looked at Ying Zheng, nodded and said, "The name is good, it's better than the ice flame that Xue Ji thought." β
Ying Zheng said in Yanyan, "Will the teacher marry Sister Xue?" β
Yan Yan lowered his head and took a sip of tea, "It should be." β
Ying Zheng looked at Yan Yan, and Ying Zheng found that the teacher's eyes finally showed a different look, and a smile was hidden in it.
Yan Yan said, "In the year before you ascended the throne, you have to control the movements of officials in the entire court, this is the homework given to you by the teacher. β
Ying Zheng looked at Yan Yan's distant back and said, "Zheng'er remembers." β
Yan Yan left Zhangtai Palace and headed towards Liu Yang's mansion.
Now Ying Zheng lives in Zhangtai Palace, and Huayang Palace is vacant, waiting for its new owner to arrive.
Liu Yang Mansion.
Qingling handed the teacup in her hand to Yan Yan, and she said, "Sister Xue is here." β
Yan Yan looked at Yukihime who appeared in the water pavilion, and Yukihime also looked at him.
Yan Yan: "Those two things were all planted this time, and after the seedlings were grown, they were spread out on a large scale with the cuttings I gave you. β
Xue Ji sat beside him, took a sip of tea from the teacup in his hand, and said, "Those peasant disciples don't need to be killed. β
Yan Yan shook his head, "Ask them if they are willing to leave the peasant family and join the Qin State." β
"Also, find out the information of the hundred schools of thought, and then you must control these people in the hands of the Qin State, otherwise it will be a hidden danger after all."
Xue Ji: "Wei Wuji, you don't need to make a move. β
Yan Yan shook his head, he looked at the tea in his hand and said, "Wei Wuji is no longer enough to be afraid, but it is the organization that is secretly restraining us that is the big problem." β
"How's the Flame staffed now?"
Xue Ji said, "The Yanzi Killer recruits two people, the Yanzi Killer is twenty, and the Fire Word Killer is three hundred and twenty people. β
Yan Yan looked at Qing Ling and said, "Do you choose to join Snowflake or Flame?" β
Xue Ji looked at Qing Ling, this woman who relied on them as soon as Zichu died, her strength should not be underestimated, and she had a strong sound attack technique.
Qingling looked at Xue Ji, then looked at Yan Yan and said, "The slave family still wants to follow Mr. to serve Mr. and protect Mr.'s safety." β
Yan Yan didn't pay attention to her, he looked at Xue Ji and said, "She'll be handed over to you." β
Qingling snorted when she heard it, and then looked at Xue Ji and said, "Mr. is so partial to Sister Xue, he doesn't care about the slave family at all." β
Yukihime smiled charmingly, and then said, "You probably don't know how strong Childe is. β
Qingling looked at Yan Yan, and Xue Ji said that he was strong, but no matter how you look at it, you can't see it.
Yukihime said, "Do you know how Childe doesn't have hair? β
Qingling shook her head.
Xue Ji told Yan Yan's great achievements in Zhao Kingdom, including the scars on his back when she saw him for the first time.
Qingling looked at Yan Yan's surprised eyes, and her eyes were about to pop out.
Yukihime said, "Childe, those two tigers know! β
Qingling nodded.
Xue Ji said, "That's what Childe adopted after beating the tigress to death with his bare hands, besides, if Childe didn't have the strength, those two beasts would be so obedient and so humane?" β
Qingling looked at the thin Yan Yan, and couldn't understand that there would be the power described by Yukihime under his thin body.
Xue Ji looked at Qing Ling and said, "It seems that you haven't experienced Childe's power yet, no wonder you don't know how powerful Childe is." β
Qingling's face was red, and her gaze wandered back and forth between Xue Ji and Yan Yan.
Xue Ji covered her mouth and smiled, then leaned on Yan Yan and closed her beautiful eyes, quietly feeling the time of this moment.
Lu Buwei and Cai Ze were talking about something in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and when Cai Ze left, it was already dusk.
Ying Zheng looked at the information in his hand, thinking about whether to tell the teacher, thought for a while, shook his head and thought it was not necessary.
Cai Ze held the festival in his hand and walked towards the country of Qi.
Another Qin envoy headed towards the land of the Xiongnu and Baiyue.
The news of the departure of the Qin envoy from Xianyang was soon known to Wei Wuji, who sent people to spy on the Qin envoy's purpose.
After the crisis was resolved, the king of Wei began to be vigilant against him again, and the military power in his hands had been withdrawn, and now the situation had lost its previous glory.
Yan Yan came to Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng looked at Yan Yan and saluted, "Teacher." β
Yan Yan said, "I need to leave Xianyang City and go to Qi Kingdom. β
Ying Zheng said: "What is the so-called matter of the teacher going to Qi State?" β
Yan Yan said: "Children of peasant families. β
Ying Zheng repeated: "Farmer? β
Yan Yan said, "A large number of people among the peasant children are proficient in the matter of agriculture and mulberry, if the Qin State can get the loyalty of the children of the peasant family, then the matter of the Qin State will be upgraded by several levels. β
Ying Zheng said, "But the peasant family has always been controlled by the Qi royal family, did they really enter Qin?" β
Yan Yan said, "So I need to go there myself." β
Ying Zheng saluted and said, "Fortunately, the teacher." β
Yan Yan walked outside: "I will rush back as soon as possible before you ascend the throne to offer this great gift." β
Ying Zheng looked at the disappeared Yan Yan, and at this moment he knew the true meaning of seeking his own government in his position.
Ying Zheng said to the empty hall, "How is the matter of monitoring the hundred officials?" β
"Back to the king, except for the Taishi, all the officials have been monitored."
Ying Zheng said: "How is Lu Buwei's situation? β
"Lord Xiangguo is still managing government affairs, and at the same time summoned Wang Xuan, the governor of Sunei, Shi Feng Quji, and Feng Chang Kui to discuss political affairs."
Ying Zheng said: "To what extent has the formation of the Shadow Secret Guard. β
"Back to the king, the shadow guard has successfully monitored the entire city of Xianyang."
"But..."
Ying Zheng" said. β
"Great King, in the process of arranging, the Shadow Guards have discovered many forces in Xianyang City, among which the strongest three forces are even more powerful."
Ying Zheng was shocked, three shares, what's going on?
"Say."
"These three forces have a huge network of influence in Xianyang, and in the battle with them, two of them took the initiative to retreat, and one of them became more and more courageous and did not retreat at all."
Ying Zhengdao "knows, continue, and at the same time expand the sphere of influence to the cities of the world." β
"Yui."
Ying Zheng has an answer to two of them in his heart, one of them must be the ice flame in the teacher's hand, and the other must be the black gold in Lu Buwei's hand, so who is the other one?
Yan Yan returned to Liu Yang's mansion, he looked at Qing Ling and said, "I'm going to go to Qi Kingdom." β
Qingling said, "I'll go with my husband." β
Yan Yan shook his head.
Qingling said, "Mr. is going to take Sister Xue with you?" β
Yan Yan still shook his head.
Yan Yan said: "This time, I will go alone. β
As soon as it was dark, Yan Yan drove the carriage out of Xianyang in black clothes and headed towards Tian Qi at the corner of the East China Sea.
At the same time, LΓΌ Buwei also received the news of Yan Yan's departure from the city, and he said, "Let's take action." β
Outside Xianyang City, Yan Yan whistled, and within half an hour of the carriage leaving, two fierce tigers appeared on both sides of the road and followed the carriage to run.
Yan Yan drove the carriage to the side of the road, he looked at the two tigers and said, "If someone changes, kill them directly." β
The eyes of the two fierce tigers showed a fierce light, and they disappeared into the dense forest with a long roar.
Qingling found Xue Ji and told her the news of Yan Yan's departure from the city, Xue Ji shook her head and said, "Don't worry about Childe, Childe is measured." β
