Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 337 You and I are just claiming to be righteous! (Please subscribe)

Zhang Liang remained silent.

He looked at Ji Heng imperceptibly, his fingertips gently touching the cool dagger handle, and his eyes flickered with uncertainty.

He was very afraid of Ji Heng.

This person is too shrewd and his mind is too clear.

With the help of this person, it would be extremely difficult to destroy Da Qin.

So he became murderous.

Since it can't be used by himself, it's better to kill him as soon as possible. Zhang Liang looked at the distance between the two people. It was only about ten steps. If he really fought for his life, there might be a chance of killing him with one blow.

Zhang Liang didn't think there was anything wrong with the attack.

This is their own enemy, and a life and death enemy. As long as they can kill Ji Heng, they will undoubtedly have fewer difficulties in the future, so even if they are unscrupulous, it is still worth it.

But ten steps are still too far.

At least for Zhang Liang, it was a bit far.

He needed to be closer.

He didn't want any surprises.

Zhang Liang raised his head, looked at the mulberry tree in a daze, and suddenly asked: "Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, displaced many people in the world, separated wives and children, and suffered the suffering of national subjugation. After Qin unified the world, What did you do again? Have you ever thought about recuperating and recuperating? I only wanted to achieve great success, but I wasted money and wasted money, and the people complained."

"Is Qin still right?"

Ji Heng chuckled and said nothing about it.

He said slowly: "How can there be so much right and wrong in the world? There have been winners and losers since ancient times, and different people have different views on the same thing. In your eyes, the people at the bottom are miserable, but from a certain point of view, To some extent, Qin also unified the world and benefited all people, so there is no clear distinction between right and wrong."

"As far as I'm concerned."

"Qin ended hundreds of years of war and chaos in the world."

"That's right."

"Indeed."

"After Qin unified the world, he did many inappropriate things and did not consider the sufferings of the people. However, this does not deny that the unification of the world was wrong, because these are two different things."

"Qin's mistake was that it took too big a step and had no clear purpose, so it could only play in the east and make some moves in the west. In the end, nothing was satisfactory. But in the final analysis, some things are not wrong at all, they are just helpless actions. After all, what Qin wanted was to make a major breakthrough, completely eradicate the old system’s long-standing shortcomings, and rebuild a brand new civilization.”

"And how easy is that?"

"You can't deny everything just because Qin's troubles have caused the world to boil."

"this is not right."

"Did Qin really end the troubled times?" Zhang Liang asked.

Ji Heng hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said slowly: "From a geographical point of view, Qin has indeed achieved unification, but in terms of the cultural differences between the east and west, in fact, this chaos is still continuing, and may even last for a long time. time."

Zhang Liang stood up.

He waved his sleeves, put his hands in front of him, and hid them in his sleeves. He moved lightly, walking in every square inch, and at the same time said loudly: "Since you know the true situation of the world, you should understand that the world of Qin is in name only. The return of the world to its feudal lords is the general trend."

"And do you know how many people in the world hate Qin?"

"How many people want to destroy the Qin Dynasty?"

"How many people are looking forward to the sudden death of the First Emperor day and night?"

Ji Heng's eyes narrowed slightly.

He turned around and glanced at Zhang Liang indifferently. His eyes swept over Zhang Liang, then he looked away and said calmly: "I know, but so what? In the final analysis, everything in the world is for private affairs."

"The world is in chaos, how many will benefit in the end?"

“After all, all living beings suffer.”

"The world has changed."

"Any attempt to go back to the past is simply wishful thinking."

"I admit that Qin has many shortcomings, but Qin has been trying to make up for it. However, the Qin system itself has many loopholes when it is first introduced. It will naturally appear to be stretched and full of mistakes, but some people are destined to bear the pain."

"Either the current generation, or the next generation."

"And today all the people in the world have suffered a lot. If the world is torn down and started all over again, not to mention how many people can escape safely from this chaos, the world will also suffer when it is rebuilt in the future."

"Doesn't this mean that we have to suffer twice and suffer twice?"

"Is this really the wish of all people?"

"You just bully these people at the bottom who can't see the situation and the current situation. They blindly instill misery in them and promote the benefits after the world is divided, but they never mention how many people will die after the world is in chaos. How many people will die after the world is in chaos? People have been destroyed and many families have been displaced. You are the ones who are afraid of the world being in chaos."

"But how can all the people in the world be so innocent?"

"Now the Qin system is constantly being polished and perfected, and the Xiongnu and Baiyue have all surrendered, and they dare not easily cause disputes anymore. The world is already developing in a good direction. Maybe there will still be hardships for a few years in the future, but with the completion of the construction of the Sichuan Canal, When everything in the world is renewed, it will definitely be a different scene, why do you insist on putting all peoples in water and fire?"

"Because of what Qin did, the sin is in the present day, but the benefit is in the future?"

"Just deny it completely?"

Zhang Liang was silent.

It's just that his eyes are getting sharper.

It's like a sharp blade about to come out of its sheath and drink blood.

Ji Heng stood up slowly, looked at the sky with his hands behind his hands, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone in the world knows that the world is hard. The main reason is that they don't know when these hard days will end. If they knew, they endured hardship so that their descendants would no longer have to endure hardship. I'm afraid How many people would be willing to continue to endure it?”

"The world of Qin."

"At least we can win a few decades of peace for the world."

"That's enough as far as I'm concerned."

"As for the dagger in your sleeve, there is no need to take it out. You and I meet just to talk freely. If you use the knife, it will lose the original fun, and you can't hurt me."

Ji Heng turned his head.

He stared at Zhang Liang deeply.

Zhang Liang was stunned.

But his eyes immediately became firm again.

Ji Heng chuckled and sighed softly: "Although I don't practice martial arts, I have been working in the fields in the past few years. I think I still have some strength. Moreover, your movements are too clumsy and it is too easy for others to see through. Although you have practiced swordsmanship, in this small area, in the end, you still rely on close combat, and you are no match for me."

"Otherwise, why would I remove the surrounding attendants?"

"As a scribe, with a pen and ink in his hand, he can serve as a soldier with thousands of soldiers. Why should he wield swords and guns by himself? Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?"

"It seems like you are scared."

"In other words, my existence makes you very afraid."

"To the point where I want to kill him quickly."

heard.

Zhang Liang's expression changed again and again.

In the end, he chose to show the dagger.

He threw the dagger in his hand to the ground, waved his sleeves again, and said in a solemn voice: "You really expected it."

"Actually, I have always been confused."

"From my own experience, you seem to have been wary of me."

"Is there something wrong with my intuition?"

Ji Heng showed a hint of surprise.He took a deep look at Zhang Liang, but did not deny it. He rubbed his temples and said helplessly: "Maybe this is why I don't like contact with the outside world. After all, some people in this world are gifted."

"exactly."

"I am indeed deliberately wary of you."

"And it's not just you, but everyone else, I'm wary of."

"Why?" Zhang Liang looked curious.

He admitted that he did not know Ji Heng, and in the past, except for the suicide attack in Bolangsha, he rarely acted in his own name. Why did he pay so much attention to Ji Heng?Or even deliberately on guard?
He was very puzzled.

"Because you are too smart." Ji Heng said quietly.

"What kind of reason is this?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but be startled.

Ji Heng shook his head and sighed: "Of course you can't understand this feeling, but I feel it particularly deeply."

"I like to deal with smart people, but I don't like to be enemies of smart people. People who are too smart sometimes tend to do unconventional things, which can easily lead to variables. I don't like variables to occur in what I do. .”

"So I will be on guard."

"Then why are you so wary of me? Although I have a reputation in the world, I am not known as a wise man?" Zhang Liang asked.

Ji Heng was speechless.

Zhang Liang is indeed not known as a wise man at the moment.

But he was very afraid of Zhang Liang, the "sage seeker". During the conflict between Chu and Han, Zhang Liang could almost be said to have left no stone unturned, otherwise he would not have been called a "sage seeker" by later generations, let alone Will be firmly ranked among the martial arts temples.

How could he dare not guard against such a person?
As for planning a confrontation with Zhang Liang, Ji Heng had no such idea.

Fighting with this kind of person is very laborious and mentally demanding. He has faced off against Sima Yi in his previous life and knows how uncomfortable this feeling is, so he is unwilling to repeat it again, let alone there is no need.

Ji Heng smiled and said: "Because you have been together for generations."

"This means that your family education is destined to be very profound. In addition, you have not been found out by the court in these years, so you must have many calculations. Besides, you have a good reputation, so they will pay more attention to you."

Ji Heng explained expressionlessly.

heard.

Zhang Liang frowned.

Are you really burdened by your reputation?
He didn't believe it.

Even if he was indeed famous, how could Ji Heng be so careful and careful?He clearly knew himself well enough to be so meticulous. Zhang Liang didn't believe Ji Heng's statement at all.

But he didn't ask any more about it.

Ji Heng has said so much, how can he say more?

As for those people Ji Heng was still secretly wary of, he didn't ask. If Ji Heng wanted to say it, he had already said it before. The reason why he never mentioned it again was just to inform himself about the matter, and that was all.

It's even possible that Ji Heng is making a fool of himself.

The purpose is to distract the mind.

He already knew the answer, but the other details were of little use.

He sighed: "You are very thoughtful and have planned me very thoroughly. In the past six months, I have been feeling that I am powerless and I clearly know what is happening, but every time I make a move, something will happen. I was given a wake-up call, and I didn’t even dare to take too many actions at all, and this is mostly due to you.”

"It is a pity for the world to serve the Qin people with such a smart mind."

"It's just that you have so much confidence in Qin Ting?"

The two stood side by side.

Neither of the two parties looked directly at each other, and their gazes invariably moved to the mulberry tree aside, as if they were having a fierce battle on the broken chess board.

Ji Heng said: "There is not much confidence."

"It's just that compared to the world falling into turmoil again, and then the population being reduced by half, I would rather the world suffer the people again in a limited time, completely complete the world's unfinished business, and create a long-term peace for the world."

"Although this approach is not commendable, it is the best way at present."

"At least the vast majority of them will survive."

heard.

Zhang Liang looked contemptuous and said: "You just said that everyone in the world is for personal gain, isn't it what you are doing now? You pretend to be a conspiracy for the world, but what is the difference between you and other people?"

"After all, he is just claiming to be righteous."

Ji Heng nodded.

He does not deny this.

He is equally selfish and thoughtful.

And to a certain extent, it is indeed aiding the evil, because the people of Great Qin are already living a very difficult life, but the situation in the world will not change so quickly. As for the people at the bottom who are about to die, they are also placed in the At last.

These people are so important.

When it comes to such a large number of groups, no one can take it lightly and dare not relax in the slightest.

Before other hidden worries were resolved, the risks involved in rashly attacking the most numerous people at the bottom were too great. Even Ji Heng, even with the First Emperor on his side, still did not dare to be so rash.

And this is doomed.

Those at the bottom can only continue to suffer.

When other groups such as nobles, scholars, merchants, etc. are properly dealt with, their lives will truly improve, but Ji Heng is not sure about this time.

But he was already trying to speed up.

Just not enough.

In addition, haste makes waste, and if you take a big step, it is easy to lose your temper. There are too many lessons learned in history. He does not want to be the one who leads the way. Therefore, although he intends to speed up, he still deliberately restrains himself in the end.

Zhang Liang added: "I came from Kuaiji County and saw so many different kinds of living beings along the way. And from the faces of these people, I saw the exhaustion of the people, the lifelessness of the world, the desperation of the people, and the complaints of the people. .”

"Shouldn't this world be overthrown?"

heard.

Ji Heng suddenly laughed.

He walked in the courtyard with his hands behind his back and said with a soothing expression: "I have a different view on the situation you mentioned. If you said this a year ago, I would take it seriously. But now, I Don’t think so.”

"What you see is that people are living in dire straits."

"But I'm different."

"I saw the vigorous vitality under the ashes, and I also saw the wisps of life condensed."

"I saw a prosperous time."

"A bright and prosperous age is coming."

"The darkness before us will eventually pass, and a new era is coming."

"Behind the lifelessness, there is an extremely brilliant and bright future. This is all formed under the framework of Da Qin. Because of this, I have a reason to continue."

"Zhang Liang."

"For this world."

“It is often easier to destroy than to build.”

"And you're trapped!"

　I'm stuck. I'll see if I can come up with four chapters tomorrow.
