Chapter 333 Unifying the Six Kingdoms... (Subscribe)
"Although King Qin Zhuangxiang is relatively low-key, he is actually a promising monarch. Although he has only been in power for three years, King Qin Zhuangxiang announced amnesty for the world during his three-year reign. King Qin Zhuangxiang also sent General Meng Ao to attack South Korea. Zhao Guo and Wei Guo respectively won dozens of cities in these three countries. It is a pity that King Qin Zhuangxiang passed away suddenly three years after he ascended the throne. And the son of King Qin Zhuangxiang who took over the throne is Yingzheng."

Meng Ao may not be well-known.

But Meng Ao had a son named Meng Wu.

Meng Wu had two sons, one named Meng Tian and the other Meng Yi.

of course.

At this time, it is not about Meng Ao's family.

Chen Fan went on to talk about Yingzheng: "Speaking of this Yingzheng, his fate is similar to that of King Zhuangxiang of Qin. He was also placed in Zhao as a hostage. Strictly speaking, Yingzheng was not qualified to be a hostage at that time. As for why Yingzheng stayed in Zhao State, it was because King Qin Zhuangxiang had been a hostage in Zhao State before. Later, he heard that King Zhao wanted to kill him, so King Qin Zhuangxiang fled back under the planning of Lu Buwei. When I arrived in Qin State, Yingzheng’s mother, that is, the Zhao Ji who was given to King Zhuangxiang of Qin by Lu Buwei, had a certain power in Zhao State, so she hid Yingzheng, and finally Yingzheng avoided a difficult situation. Later, Zhao After the relationship between Qin and Qin eased, Ying Zheng continued to live in Zhao."

Just talking about winning politics.

There are even more people waiting to talk about Yingzheng.

"Tsk tsk, it's finally time to talk about winning politics."

"However, it is said that he does not seem to be the son of King Qin Zhuangxiang."

"Oh, I've heard the legend too."

Although for various reasons.

Everyone is not particularly familiar with the Warring States Period and the series of Qin Shihuang's life.

but.

There are some unofficial histories, or legends, and it has been rumored that Ying Zheng is not the blood of King Qin Zhuangxiang, but from someone else.

Although no one knows who this other person is, the legend has been passed down for thousands of years.

And now.

When Chen Fan talked about Yingzheng, he also mentioned that Yingzheng's biological mother was Lu Buwei's concubine before, and it was Lu Buwei who gave Zhao Ji to King Zhuangxiang of Qin.

Such a legend is more exciting.

"It looks like the legend is true."

"Well, Teacher Chen Fan said that Ying Zheng's biological mother is Lu Buwei's concubine, which means that Ying Zheng is likely to be of Lu Buwei's blood."

"Are you going to unravel this ancient legend today?"

For this.

Chen Fan naturally wanted to explain it to everyone.

In fact, whether Ying Zheng is Lu Buwei's son was discussed in the previous life.

This is just like the legend in previous lives that Qianlong was not a Manchu, but a descendant of the Han people.

Although this is impossible, everyone is talking about it.

even.

Everyone believes in such legends even more.

The same is true for winning politics at this time.

However, with a responsible attitude, Chen Fan explained: "Speaking of which, maybe everyone must be very concerned about whether Ying Zheng is from the blood of the Ying family. Regarding whether Ying Zheng is from the blood of the Ying family, judging from the information currently available , I think it should be. Although I said before that Yingzheng’s biological mother was Lu Buwei’s concubine before, Ying Zheng is also very likely to be Lu Buwei’s blood. But judging from thousands of years of history, this possibility is relatively low .”

"On the one hand, Lu Buwei assisted King Qin Zhuangxiang with a lot of money at that time, and even gave his beloved concubine to King Qin Zhuangxiang. It can be seen from this that Lu Buwei is a man of great wealth and foresight. Although Yingzheng's biological mother had previously It is Lu Buwei's concubine, but after Lu Buwei sent it away, it is absolutely impossible for him to have too many ties with Yingzheng's biological mother. At least, he would not do so when King Qin Zhuangxiang was still alive. Because if there is any If there is a problem, then all of Lu Buwei's investments may be in vain."

"Of course, everyone may not agree with this reason. Maybe everyone thinks that Lu Buwei just wants his son to become emperor, so he made arrangements in advance, and then set up a plan to send Zhao Ji to King Qin Zhuangxiang. Theoretically speaking, this is not the case. There is no such possibility. However, although ancient times did not have such advanced science and technology as it is now. But for emperors, they will have a set of strict procedures to follow when they choose to inherit the throne. If King Qin Zhuangxiang is not sure that Yingzheng is his son, he It is absolutely impossible for Yingzheng to inherit the position. After all, King Zhuangxiang of Qin is not the only son of Yingzheng."

but.

Although Chen Fan explained it this way.

But this still hasn't dispelled everyone's doubts about Yingzheng's status.

after all.

There are some legends that have been passed down for thousands of years. It is really difficult for you to change them.

Even if there are historical materials, everyone may not be able to fully accept it.

in this way.

Chen Fan did not continue to analyze the issue of Ying Zheng's identity.

sometimes.

Legend is also more interesting than history.

And sometimes.

History is true and false, and not all history is true.

Although the legend seems exaggerated, what if... he is real?

"With regard to the issue of Ying Zheng's identity, there are not many historical materials to support his bloodline issue, so we will stop here. But whether Ying Zheng is the son of Qin Zhuang Xiangyang is not important. What is important is that the son of Qin Guofen VI Yu Lie finally realized it in Ying Zheng."

of course.

In it, there is also a story.

This has to be done step by step.

Chen Fan said: "At that time, the Qin State was powerful, and after King Zhuangxiang of Qin was established as the crown prince, the State of Zhao sent Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji back to the State of Qin in order to gain the favor of the State of Qin. Zheng succeeded to the throne very smoothly. But at this time, Yingzheng was only 13 years old, so Yingzheng respected Lu Buwei as his second father, which meant the same as his uncle. In this way, Lu Buwei began to take over the government of Qin State instead of Yingzheng .Until Yingzheng was 21 years old, Yingzheng officially became a pro-government."

Speaking of here.

A fan was more interested in the change of regime during the Warring States period, so he immediately asked Chen Fan: "Mr. Chen Fan, Lu Buwei is a great talent, and now he controls the government. At this time, Yingzheng is so small. Why did Lu Buwei let Yingzheng go?" He even let him grow up to be 21 years old. Why didn't he directly kill Yingzheng when he was young, or follow the example of the three families dividing Jin and Tian's replacing Qi, and become King of Qin himself?"

Chen Fan naturally knew that everyone would have this question.

In previous lives, many people also raised such a question.

But really say it.

It's not that Lu Buwei didn't want to, but that he didn't have the possibility.

why.

Chen Fan explained: "We introduced Lu Buwei before. Lu Buwei was originally a businessman in the Wei country. Later, he invested in Qin Yiren and gained a firm foothold in the Qin country. Later, because Yingzheng was young, he was able to control the government. But at this time It is absolutely impossible for the Qin State to seize the monarchy by just one person, and it is absolutely impossible for other factions to sit back and ignore it. Not to mention, if a businessman from the Wei State becomes the king, the entire Qin State will not agree."

"The other one, as you can see. Starting from Qin Xiaogong, all the monarchs of Qin State will rely on these politicians in terms of government affairs. For example, Qin Xiaogong reused Shang Yang, Qin Huiwen Wang reused Zhang Yi... and so on. But in terms of military affairs, Qin people have always served as the highest generals of the Qin country. Gong Ziji, a Qin countryman. No matter how powerful they are, they can't shake the foundation of Qin. Even the king of Qin can eradicate them without much effort. Like Shang Yang, who was also powerful at the time, King Qin Huiwen directly took over He was killed. Zhang Yi is also famous all over the world. Qin Wuwang didn't like Zhang Yi, so he drove him away directly. This is because the Qin people controlled the force..."

"The last reason is that Lu Buwei's time in Qin State was too short. We know that no matter whether it is the division of the three families into the Jin Dynasty or the Tian family's generation of Qi, he did not complete it in an instant. At the beginning of Qi, the three families and the Tian family had been operating in Jin and Qi for more than 100 years. It took several generations before they succeeded. Lu Buwei was just a businessman, and he didn’t have much time to invest in Qin Zhuangxiang. He alone It’s impossible for one generation to try to escape.”

and so.

This is why even if Lu Buwei took control of the government, he couldn't do anything about King Qin.

Once he has the heart to seek power, a series of Qin generals can kill him.

"I see."

The crowd nodded.

……

of course.

The monarchy of Yingzheng has not always been so stable.

Not long after he took office, he still encountered a threat.

"After the death of King Zhuangxiang of Qin, Lu Buwei came to power. For some unknown reason, Lu Buwei got involved with Zhao Ji, the biological mother of Yingzheng. But after all, Lu Buwei was a successful politician. He knew wisely that sooner or later he would It’s over. In order to get rid of Zhao Ji, Lu Buwei recommended to Zhao Ji a noodle head called 【嫪毐】. This Lai Ai is also a capable person. Originally, he was just a noodle head given to Zhao Ji by Lu Buwei. But I don’t know who it is It’s a great skill, but it’s still...cough cough..."

at this time.

The audience burst into laughter.

Chen Fan coughed a few times.

also understand.

Now it's a live broadcast, so don't talk nonsense.

Then Chen Fan said again: "This Lao Ai didn't know what method she used, but she made Zhao Ji fascinated. After having Lao Ai, Zhao Ji never wanted Lu Buwei again. Moreover, Zhao Ji gave birth to Lao Ai. Even, for fear of being discovered by Yingzheng, Zhao Ji told Yingzheng that she was not used to living in Xianyang and wanted to move to Ligong in Yong County. Yingzheng didn't know about it at the time, so she agreed. Unexpectedly, Lao Ai thought that Zhao Ji would be captivated, and he would gain the world. Even when he was drunk, he said to a minister, I am the false father of King Qin, how dare you provoke me. As a result, this The minister told Ying Zheng about this."

"When Lai Ai found out that Yingzheng knew about this, she was very scared. So Lai Ai rebelled directly without doing anything. But the result was that Lai Ai's rebellion had long been expected by Yingzheng. Lai Ai was just a soldier, and he was attacked by Qin soldiers. It didn't take much effort, Yingzheng destroyed Lai Ai, and killed the two sons born to Lai Ai and Zhao Ji, a crisis of monarchy It is hereby released."

Although this is just a small episode.

But this small episode not only reflects Ying Zheng's wise side.

and.

Because of this little episode, Lu Buwei was later involved.

Check this.

It turned out that this Lai Ai was dedicated to Zhao Ji by Lu Buwei.

Although Yingzheng missed his old feelings, he was unwilling to kill Lu Buwei.However, it was later discovered that Lu Buwei had too much political influence, so Ying Zheng wrote a letter to Lu Buwei.In the letter, he blamed Lu Buwei for being too arrogant. Lu Buwei knew that the general situation was over, and he also understood that Ying Zheng could no longer trust himself. He didn't want to be killed by Ying Zheng, so Lu Buwei committed suicide by poisoning himself.

At this point, Yingzheng took full control of Qin.

"After Yingzheng took full control of Qin, he wanted to fulfill the wishes of his ancestors. At this time, Qin was already very powerful. In order to unify the world, Yingzheng was the first to attack South Korea. It only took one year. Qin State will destroy South Korea."

"In the second year, Yingzheng was going to attack the State of Zhao. Although Li Mu of the State of Zhao resisted symbolically, Li Mu was not trusted by the King of Zhao. It took only one year for the State of Qin to destroy the State of Zhao. "

"In the fourth year, Yingzheng attacked the State of Yan, and the State of Yan moved its capital to Liaodong because it was too afraid of the State of Qin. King Yan even killed his son [Prince Dan], and offered his head to Yingzheng for peace."

"In the fifth year, Yingzheng sent Wang Ben to besiege the State of Wei, and flooded the city with water from the Yellow River. Three months later, the city of Daliang was destroyed, the King of Wei surrendered, and the State of Wei was destroyed. In the same year, the State of Chu was also wiped out."

"In the eighth year, Ying Zheng remembered that Yan State had not yet been destroyed. Yes, he was the one who sued for peace with his son's head, so he wiped out Yan State."

"In the ninth year, Yingzheng sent Wang Fu to go south from Yan State to destroy Qi State."

Relatively speaking.

The state of Qin after Yingzheng ascended the throne is undoubtedly much stronger than the state of Qin when all the sages of Qin were there before.

even.

This is powerful.

Sometimes it's just a few words, or just sending a few generals, and the countries are wiped out casually.

But even so.

Listening to what Chen Fan said that Yingzheng destroyed all the vassal states in just a few years, everyone was still incomparably shocked.

"Destroy the country in one year, sister, how much difference is there in the strength of the two parties?"

"It must be huge. Think about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Not to mention the destruction of the country, it is possible to win a city for a few years, and it may not even be possible to win."

"In the end, only Qi is left, which is also the largest country in the East. I don't know how he is."

"I still have to ask, it must be wiped out by Yingzheng."

"I know, to be destroyed is to be destroyed, but Qi State is a big country after all, and it is still a country handed down by Jiang Ziya. Jiang Ziya, my idol. Also, Qi State is the number one hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period. How to say, Qi State also has a heritage , it is estimated that Qi State will be able to put up a fight against Qin State."

"I feel so too."

just.

Just when everyone felt that Qi State should be able to fight Qin State for a few rounds.

However, Chen Fan said: "When the soldiers of Qin came under the city wall of Qi State, King Qi led a group of ministers and surrendered directly..."

Done.

offstage.

As well as the entire live broadcast room, two words appeared:
