Qin Gong

Chapter 28 The Stealing Girl
Shui Yan, who had eaten and was about to go out for a while, suddenly saw a servant coming to him, saying that Bai Zhong wanted to see him.

Shui Yan did not refuse.Although he had already shown his cards to Bai, but before he got what he wanted, Mr. Bai said that he still wanted to give Bai face.

After all, no matter what, the surname Bai will still be used in the future.

"Grandpa wants to see him?"

"I don't know what grandfather will tell him to write!"

"In the future, he will leave the White House so that we have nothing to do with him, so why bother so much!"

In the courtyard, three young members of the Bai clan were about to go out to play, but they accidentally saw Shui Yan following his servants to the direction of the gazebo, and whispered among themselves.

Yesterday they already knew the ins and outs of the whole matter, and also heard that Father Zou was dead.

Therefore, there is no need to hide the disdainful tone towards Shui Yan in the words.

In their eyes, the boy is no different from a commoner now.

They were not afraid of the young man's hearing. After all, it wasn't Zou's father who was kind to the Bai family in the past. That young man was not even worthy of taking a step into the Bai family's family.

The reason why grandfather met him now is mostly for the sake of the past.What can the young man do if he hears what they say.

Inside the gazebo.

Shui Yan followed the servants, and soon saw Bai Zhong.

But what Shui Yan didn't expect was that Bai Yan was there.

After saluting to Bai Zhong, the servants turned and left, leaving Shui Yan, Bai Zhong and Bai Yan in the pavilion.

"Yan, I have met Bai Lao, I have seen Uncle!"

Shui Yan cupped his hands in salute to Bai Zhong and Bai Yan.

see.

Bai Zhong bowed his hands to return the salute, while Bai Yan, who still had a bad complexion, raised his wide cuffs and returned the salute to Shui Yan with both hands.

Although after the Zhou family, etiquette collapsed, but that only meant that etiquette was no longer discussed on the battlefield.

In communication, etiquette is still very important.

The more important a person is, the less likely he is to do things that are impolite.After all, people with status pay attention to a reputation.

This is why even though Bai Yan has prejudice against Shui Yan, he still pays back the courtesy.

"I don't know what is the so-called Bailao looking for Yan?"

Shui Yan looked at Bai Zhong and asked softly.

The words have been made clear, and they were straightforward enough yesterday.Right now Bai Zhong is looking for him, not knowing what's going on.

"Can you tell the old man personally why you have to enlist in the army when you are only fifteen years old?"

Inside the gazebo, Bai Zhong asked directly without detours.

"If you want to gain fame and fortune, I guarantee that you will be educated in the Bai family. When you become an adult, I will help you become an official in Qin."

After Bai Zhong finished speaking, he looked at Shui Yan, hoping that Shui Yan could think about it.

After all, Shui Yan's age is really too young to enlist in the army.

"Thank you, Mr. Bai, for your kindness. Yan Yan's decision to enlist in the army has been decided, and he will not change it."

Shui Yan cupped his hands to Bai Zhong and said.

Bai Yan at the side looked at Shui Yan in front of him, and listened to Shui Yan's words.That fat face was full of impatience.

He knew it.

Father is just wasting his words in vain, this kid is determined to enlist in the army.

With a soft snort, Bai Yan looked at other places outside the gazebo again, too lazy to look at this kid again.

In Bai Yan's mind, it wasn't that he didn't want to make up for this kid based on Father Zou's kindness.

But this kid is determined to enlist in the army.

So in the future, this kid will really die on the battlefield.

That's no wonder he was there.

Inside the gazebo.

There was a sigh.

"Your ancestor of the Zou family, Zou Ji, was so beautiful a hundred years ago. Why don't you follow the path of your ancestor, Zou Ji, to assist Ming Jun and become famous all over the world?"

Bai Zhong persuaded softly.

A hundred years ago, at that time, the Qi State was dominant outside the Hangu Pass, and none of the other countries dared to provoke it.It is inseparable from the credit of Zou Ji.

If Tian Ji hadn't been squeezed out later.I am afraid that Zou Ji's name today is not inferior to the famous and capable officials of the past dynasties.

If the young man in front of him really wants to honor the lintel and revive the Zou family.

Becoming an official is the best choice!
"Ancestors are ancestors. It would be boring to walk the path that ancestors walked a hundred years later."

Shui Yan answered Bai Zhong with a smile.

Shui Yan looked at Bai Zhong, and knew in his heart that if Zou Xing was here, he would be eager to agree.

But he doesn't want to be an official.

For him to become an official, except that his ability was greatly reduced and he could not use it.The most important thing is the promotion path to become an official. It is very difficult, and it takes several years, decades.

Don't look at the fact that Gan Luo was appointed prime minister in the state of Qin when he was twelve years old.

But think about the clan behind him and who his grandfather is, aside from his ability.

What's more, at that time, there were turbulent winds and clouds inside the Qin Dynasty's court hall.The powerful Chu faction, Lu Buwei, and Zhao Ji, Lai Ai, these three forces are all fighting secretly, not to mention Qin Wang Yingzheng.

Gan Luo was first under the command of Lu Buwei, and finally died in the hands of Ying Zheng.

The most popular cause of his death is that when Gan Luo met Qin Wang Yingzheng, he pinched the princess's foot.

In the end, Ying Zheng ordered Gan Luo to be killed!
This is the cause of Gan Luo's death among the world's population.

But Shui Yan always felt that things were definitely not that simple.

The reason why Gan Luo can be named Shangqing is that he can also worship the prime minister.It was nothing more than going to Zhao State to ask for five cities for Qin State, and persuading King Zhao to donate five cities to Qin State.In the end, King Zhao was persuaded by Gan Luo.

Qin State won Zhao State's five cities without a single soldier!
It seems that this is not a problem, but it is also the biggest problem.

Because this conflicts with Gan Luo's cause of death.

Gan Luo, who is far more resourceful than ordinary people and knows people's hearts like the palm of his hand, can easily analyze the pros and cons in front of King Zhao, and is even more eloquent.

How could such a person pinch the princess' feet in front of Ying Zheng?

You know, under Zhou etiquette, when many children are sensible, their elders will tell them that women's feet can't be seen, let alone pinched.

This was something his mother had warned him since he was a child.

He, the son of a commoner, knows it all.Gan Luo Nai is a famous figure, a famous family, how could he not know this.

What is even more puzzling is that after Ying Zheng spoke, Gan Luo directly admitted that he did it on purpose.This mentality cannot be trusted with rumors at all.

Shui Yan once heard his teacher mention this matter, at that time Shui Yan guessed that Gan Luo was just a chess piece, a packaged chess piece.And the person who packaged Ganluo was probably Lu Buwei.

Shui Yan knew that if people in this period wanted to be famous, they would package their own reputation, and even package the reputation of others.

Among them, Lu Buwei is the best.

Although Gan Luo persuaded Zhao Wang to offer five cities, this matter must not be false.But who can guarantee that Gan Luo's "strategy" did not come from Lu Buwei?

The reason is likely to be related to the three forces in the Qin Caotang, the Chu faction, Lao Ai, and Qin Wang Yingzheng.

Lu Buwei knew in his heart that these three forces wanted to kill him.And he was already an extremely human minister, and his power and status had no way to rise.

In the face of the three forces, the way he can protect himself is not to make mistakes, but also to guard against any one of them becoming stronger.

For example, the position of the prime minister of Qin!

This also just touched Yingzheng's rebellious scales. The crowning of the pro-government is imminent, and it is impossible for Yingzheng to let Lu Buwei succeed.After all, it is impossible for Yingzheng to just sit and watch the position of prime minister who is most capable of helping him after taking office. He is a [-]-year-old boy, a chess piece that empties the position of prime minister.

This can also explain why Gan Luo worshiped as Shangqing soon after his meritorious service.Because of Lu Buwei!

But not long after worshiping the prime minister, he was killed.Because Ying Zheng couldn't tolerate it!
This is Shui Yan's personal guess, maybe he is too worried, but no matter whether he is right or wrong, Shui Yan will not go on the road of becoming an official.

Because even without Gan Luo, Shui Yan could see this era clearly.

It is very difficult for an ordinary person without a noble background and married to a famous family to become an official and take power.Although Wei Liao (Wei Liao), the Taiwei of the Qin State, is not a high-ranking person today, it was only at a certain age that he was able to make his mark.

Although Bai Zhong has already spoken, Shui Yan knows that after Bai Qi, the Bai family has already gone into decline.

Only the old name may still be useful in the army.But in front of an authority like the Qin State Chaotang, the declining Bai family is not worth mentioning at all.

Otherwise, when he came to the White Mansion yesterday, why did the people of the Bai family react so strongly, it could even be called 'anxious'.

It was nothing more than worrying that his appearance would prevent the Bai family from marrying other clans.

Shui Yan in the gazebo didn't know.

After he left, outside the room where he lived, a girl sneakily opened the door of his room, looked around, and then walked in.

The girl is Bai Yingxue.

The reason why he went to Shuiyan's room was because he was worried that Shuiyan would regret it, so he stole the jade pendant.

In Bai Yingxue's thinking, just in case, she should steal the jade pendant.If Shui Yan really suddenly regretted one day, he lost the jade pendant because he lost it, no wonder Mrs. Bai.

At least Bai Yingxue thought so.

inside the room.

With light steps, Bai Yingxue came to Shui Yan's package, opened the package, and when she saw the shabby clothes inside, she frowned, her beautiful eyes were full of disgust.

Such tattered clothes, but still reluctant to throw them away.

Ten thousand people like this are not good enough for my elder sister!
With a disgusted expression on her face, Bai Yingxue pinched a corner of the clothes with her slender fingers and gently opened them.

"Huh? Why are there so many bamboo slips?"

Bai Yingxue suddenly saw a pile of bamboo slips in the package, she was a little surprised, picked up a roll of bamboo slips out of curiosity and looked at them, and found that they were all in characters she didn't know.

"It's good that elder sister is here! Eldest sister must know what is written here."

Bai Yingxue murmured, with a look of pity on her face, she couldn't understand what was written in it.

But this time Bai Yingxue's purpose was to take the jade pendant, since she couldn't understand the bamboo slips, she didn't take it to heart, and continued to search for the jade pendant in the package.
