Deep in the tomb is the Imperial Palace.

In the past few decades, the Great Qin Dynasty in the population of Changling has not taken much advantage in the struggle with various dynasties, not to mention more frontiers, but has suffered some defeats, and even a few rich counties have been lost, in exchange for the peace of these years.

Today, the ironclad giant ship of Jiaodong County entered Weihe Port, and Zheng Sleeve and Jiaodong County Gate Valve entered the eyes of the people of the world with such an attitude, which is actually the result of Jiaodong County becoming more and more important to the entire Great Qin Dynasty.

The dried fish in Jiaodong County, which smelled unpleasant to these magnates, not only became the main source of meat for most of the troops in Qin, but even the salt was naturally replenished.

Many local generals were inexplicably grateful for this, allowing them to spend more of their salaries on other places, such as arrows, than cheap and effective food.

Jiaodong County has unparalleled geographical advantages and natural production, even if the magnates of Changling hold the power of the army, many harsh and difficult, but the more so, the more the many gates of Jiaodong County are the same enemy, and the iron bucket is a piece, so that the magnates of Changling can not interfere in their business in Jiaodong County.

The rise of the door valve in Jiaodong County is actually no different from the rise of the gate valve in Guanzhong.

But the difference is that Guanzhong is in the blessed land of the Great Qin Dynasty, eight hundred miles of Pingchuan, countless riches have been consumed round after round in the conquest, and after several generations of accumulation, many of the sons and nephews of the gate lords who were like tigers and wolves have become tall and powerful in the court, and they are completely different from their ancestors.

.......

The emperor's chamber was filled with the smell of fresh medicine.

Candles made of blubber from Jiaodong County are burning, and spices from overseas islands are added to them, and even the smoke is fragrant with calming spirits.

The cool air of the ice cellar below slowly rose from the mouth of the bronze crane, and the huge red curtain hung from the top of the palace to the ground, like the sunset in the sky being plucked one by one, and then piled up here.

The emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty was already old, and he had been ill for several years, and his depression was difficult to treat.

He needed the right temperature in this palace, and what festive colors he needed to make his face look more vivid and make people feel that he could last longer.

Ying Wu respectfully walked through these red drapes, looked at the emperor on the bed in front of him who had taken off his human form, looked at the bright red but still could not hide the sallow and gray defeat, he naturally thought of the yellow leaves on the branches that had been completely yellowed with mildew, and his nose couldn't help but be slightly sour.

This is a father-son meeting every day, and there is no one else in the dormitory of Nuoda, but Ying Wu still salutes seriously, and after saluting, he only took a few steps forward and arrived at the bed.

"What are you waiting for?"

The emperor on the bed asked Ying Wu softly.

Maybe he wants to use the little strength and vitality he has left to support himself for a longer time, so even when he speaks, he is very low, and there is no superfluous look on his face.

Yingwu was slightly stunned, he didn't understand the meaning of his father's words.

"Are you wondering why I have not made a decree to pass on the throne to you at this time. The Emperor's voice on the bed continued.

Ying Wu lowered his head, but he still didn't speak.

"Any will will be a dead letter, and as long as I die, any will will be changed. ”

The old emperor said lightly and sarcastically: "Any will regarding the succession of the imperial throne to you will cause drastic changes, and Great Qin at this time cannot withstand such drastic changes. ”

"Erchen understands. Yingwu lowered his head.

"So there will be no such will left, not even any ruins, if you can't control absolute power before I die, I won't follow my heart's thoughts, but will succumb to reality and pass the throne to Cheng Jiao. ”

The emperor then said slowly: "No matter how unwilling you are in your heart, but this is a means to save the Great Qin Dynasty and yourself. ”

Yingwu nodded again and said, "Erchen understands." ”

"I heard that the daughter of the Zheng family of Jiaodong County arrived in Changling today. ”

"Yes. ”

Yingwu was not surprised, he knew that even if the other party was on the bed, he still looked at the entire Changling and the whole world.

"I've never been to Jiaodong County, but I know what it's like. ”

The emperor said: "Even the furnishings in my palace are luxurious and magnificent, but they cannot be compared with those mansions. You should understand that what they have is not only the wealth they have accumulated for a hundred years, but also their ambitions. ”

Ying Wu remained silent and did not speak.

That's how they talk a lot of the time, he needs to listen more and learn.

"Anything is a double-edged sword, and so is their ambition. ”

The emperor was also very satisfied with his attitude, and he continued slowly: "In the already fixed territory, they cannot get greater benefits, and others do not need their interference... But you are different, you will be thought to be able to give them more benefits, because you need help more than others, but you must know very well in your own heart that what they really need is not that they already have a lot of wealth, but that they can be above those who have been above them, or even those who have been bullying them for many years. ”

Ying Wu bowed his head respectfully and listened.

This is actually the truth that he has already figured out.

Looking at his posture, a more satisfied look flashed in the emperor's dim eyes on the bed.

"To gain, you must also know how to give. ”

The Emperor rested for a moment before he had the strength to say what he wanted to say the most, "Your greatest weapon now is not the support of those who are loyal to me, the strength of those people is too weak compared to the more powerful forces to be relied on, your greatest weapon, but the sympathy of many people, and the sympathy of these people you should take advantage of the most." ”

......

"Why don't you learn the sword well?"

"You're obviously the most gifted student I've ever met, why don't you want to learn the sword well. ”

In the depths of Changling, there are countless mansions of powerful people.

In the depths of one of the most imposing mansions, several angry voices rang out.

"Unexpected... You can see it. ”

A weak, seemingly degraded and somewhat weak-hearted female voice sounded, "Sir, you seem to be much stronger than those teachers before, but..."

"But what!"

The swordsman in the green shirt had a violent rise and fall in his chest, he had entered the Seven Realms more than ten years ago, and he was one of the fastest cultivators in the Qin Territory, of course he was much stronger than the teachers who had taught her before, but he never thought that he would meet such a student.
