Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 385 People’s plans are plotting against the world! (Please subscribe)

Yingchuan, the father of the city.

Inside the Zhang family's house in the city.

A handsome man is standing quietly in the house.

Today, the Zhang family has long since declined.

In the past, there were three hundred private servants in the house, but now the huge house is empty.

Zhang Liang stood tall.

He looked at the weeping mulberry tree in the house.

This was planted by him and his brother back then.

But as Qin destroyed Han, the prosperity of the past disappeared in an instant like a fleeting cloud of smoke.

His younger brother Zhang Jing was also killed in the disaster that destroyed the city. At that time, he did not arrange a funeral for his younger brother Zhang Jing. Instead, he destroyed the family to help out the disaster and invested all his family wealth in the anti-Qin cause.

In the blink of an eye, nearly twenty years have passed.

The youth of those days have entered middle age.

Things are wrong.

This house changed hands several times, but was finally bought by a former friend, and then returned to his own hands. However, his like-minded friends in the past have now drifted away.

Zhang Liang just stood in the courtyard.

Looking at the half-toppled mulberry tree, there was a touch of sadness in his eyes.

"Can not go back."

"The Zhang family can't go back, and South Korea can't go back either."

"I can't go back to this house."

Zhang Liang turned around and went to the old study.

It was empty inside.

Not a single volume of books was left, not even the bookshelf.

Bricks fell down and spider webs filled the house.

As if disturbed, several black shadows crawled over the spider silk, and then disappeared into the shadows.

Zhang Liang did not enter the room, but sat at the door.

At this time.

There was a creaking sound on the door.

A middle-aged man walked into the room holding several volumes in his hands. The man also had a handsome face. He looked at Zhang Liang with a bit of sadness and emotion.

"Brother Han." Zhang Liang stood up and bowed.

The man whom Zhang Liang called Brother Han shook his head and said: "Zifang, you and I have known each other for nearly forty years. When my uncle was still alive, he praised you very much, but after all, South Korea was too weak. In the great war, In this world, there is no advantage. If the Qin State is not destroyed, other princes will eventually be destroyed. When my uncle entered the Qin Dynasty, he tried to preserve some of the country for South Korea."

"However, I couldn't do it after all."

"You are dedicated to restoring Korea, but you have known this for a long time."

"South Korea will never recover."

"The restored Korea will not be the Korea of ​​the past."

"In the past, the nobility of Korea, large and small, have now abandoned the old Korea. They have chosen to associate with local officials and collude with scholars all over the world. They use the restoration of Korea as an excuse to make a name for themselves."

"What can you do alone under the overwhelming tide of the world?"

"Full of knowledge and talent, in the end, no one can compete with the fate of the world."

"You once went to Huaiyang to learn etiquette."

"I also went to the east to pay homage to Lord Canghai, and I even learned the 'Tai Gong's Art of War' in Xiapi, but what can I do? Manpower is hard to match. I know your high aspirations in life, but I have known you for many years, so I can't help but give you some advice."

"Give up Korea."

“You shouldn’t always be tied to South Korea.”

"When you give up the ideal of rejuvenating the country, you can get rid of the shackles. That's when you are you."

"As for whether you continue to fight against Qin in the future, or continue to live in seclusion, or serve Qin, it is your own decision."

"I won't persuade you."

"only."

"There is no need to restore Korea."

"The few remaining young masters of the Korean royal family."

"Han Cheng, Han Xin and others are not qualified to be your assistants, nor are they capable of restoring Korea."

"The world is divided and united."

"We have to break up after all."

Zhang Liang was silent.

He looked at the man and said slowly: "Thank you Brother Han for your advice, but Zhang Liang was a little unwilling in the end. The country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and the blood feud was so deep. How could it be forgotten so easily? My brother was killed at the hands of the Qin people, and I, Zhang, The family's foundation was also ruined by the disaster that destroyed the country."

"All I want in my life is to destroy the word Qin."

"When I got "Tai Gong's Art of War", the old man once said, 'If you read this book, you can become the teacher of the king. Ten years later, the world will be in chaos, and you can use this book to build a country.' I, Zhang Liang, finally wanted to give it a try .”

The man shook his head.

"Ten years of chaos in the world?"

“And now we’re not that far away from this decade.”

"The Qin court has frequently taken action in recent years, and nobles and scholars everywhere have suffered terribly. If we really wait until the world is in chaos, these ten years may not be enough. However, since you insist on doing so, I will not persuade you any more."

"This is a decree issued by Qin Ting recently. I have sorted it out privately."

"Just take a look."

The man placed the scroll in his hand on the ground.

Zhang Liang cupped his hands and thanked him.

The man shook his head, looked at the decaying family home, and said softly: "You and I were so prosperous in the past, but now the Zhang family has declined, and I, the Han family, are no longer what they used to be. But after my uncle died in Qin, I knew that the situation was over. "

"The First Emperor still missed his uncle after all."

"We were not completely exterminated, but we also retained a certain family lineage."

"More than ten years have passed, and our family has no intention of restoring the country. As for the royal family, it has nothing to do with me. I, Han Li, am not as talented and knowledgeable as my uncle, let alone as courageous. Now I just want to follow the world. The torrent, drifting with the tide.”

"I can't help you much."

"The clan doesn't want to have too much involvement with you."

"Get to know each other."

"That's it for now." Zhang Liang's eyes dimmed and he nodded.

He said slowly: "Everyone has their own ambitions, so how can we force it?"

"Back then, your uncle Han Fei attempted to change the law to strengthen South Korea, but in the end it caused dissatisfaction from all over South Korea. You people in your lineage have no interest in restoring South Korea. In fact, it is excusable, and I can't blame you at all."

"but."

"If Brother Han is really serious."

"Actually, serving Qin is a good choice."

"Today's Qin, the Qin that people in the world know, has already changed."

"In the past, the world was in the hands of the First Emperor."

"Not anymore."

"Brother Zifang, what does this mean?" Han Li looked puzzled and asked uncertainly: "Brother Zifang, what he meant behind his words is, which prince has made all the changes in the world now?"

Zhang Liang nodded and shook his head.

He said calmly: "Yes and no."

"Nowadays, everyone thinks that the changes in the world are caused by Fusu's hand. I used to think so too."

"It's just that I have a detailed understanding of Fusu. This person cannot handle such changes. As I went to Xianyang before, I already know that there is someone else in the dark."

"It's just a pretense to support Su's hands and ears."

Han Li was thoughtful.

Zhang Liang sighed lightly: "When I received the book, I studied it day and night, admiring the great events of the world. I thought that I had become a 'wise man' who had a profound understanding of strategy, both civil and military skills, and resourcefulness. However, facing this person, I felt that I had no chance to fight back. Power."

"How is this possible?" Han Li looked surprised.

He knew Zhang Liang's talent well.

He really couldn't guarantee that no one in the world could be better than Zhang Liang, but even if there was such a person in the world, he would definitely be on par with Zhang Liang and would never be as terrifying as Zhang Liang described.

Zhang Liang smiled bitterly and said, "This man has great wisdom."

"I'm really not as good as that."

"He uses people's hearts to scheme and plot the world."

"You and I are actually in his calculations. He is not calculating individuals, but using the power of the world to calculate the entire world, using his own power to induce changes in the world, thus allowing us to passively enter the game, and once we are Once you fall into the trap he has set up, you will be influenced by the general trend of the world and move towards the results he wants step by step."

"Everything is changing in the world today."

"It's all in the hands of this person."

"His control over people's hearts and plots is the best in ancient and modern times."

"Even the First Emperor is not as good as him."

"What's more important is that this person has always been hidden behind the scenes and is not known to outsiders. He has always been on the outside, overlooking the changes in the world as a bystander, and can then make the most advantageous choices at all times, bringing the world's nobles and scholars together. People, even all nations, are played with by applause, and even played with willingly.”

"It was precisely because of this person who helped Qin that the world remained in a stalemate and did not continue to deteriorate."

"Brother Zifang, how did you find out?" Han Li asked curiously.

Zhang Liang's eyes darkened slightly, and he said with a hint of bitterness: "I was suspicious of the direction of the world situation, so I went to Xianyang to inquire secretly. However, these actions had long fallen into the ears of this person, and he deliberately let me in. Told me something."

"I don't know his true thoughts."

"He seems to be quite afraid of me and has been trying to influence me."

"Let me fall into his scheme."

"only."

Zhang Liang smiled bitterly and said: "From the moment I met him, I was actually affected. When I returned from Xianyang, I didn't take any action, let alone contact anyone else, because I was afraid of this person. She is calculating and worried that some of her actions will come true for him."

"Now I am even more afraid."

Han Li looked shocked.

He didn't expect that someone could make Zhang Liang so fearful, so fearful that he was as scared as a tiger.

Are there really such terrifying people in the world?
  Zhang Liang said: "Now you know how powerful this person is in scheming people's hearts."

"With these few words, I have to think carefully about what I do, and I don't dare to act too rashly, for fear that I will be plotted. This feeling is really tormenting, and it is difficult to erase."

"It's just that I, Zhang Liang, have calmed down now."

"He didn't want to get involved."

"You also don't want me to take the initiative to get involved."

"If I never do anything, I will really fall into the trap."

"So I had to get in."

"Only by entering this chess game can we find flaws and break the chess game."

"Right now, rather than wanting to restore the country, I want to have a fight with this person to see if he really has all the plans, and if he can really strategize and win a thousand miles away."

Zhang Liang smiled, with a fighting spirit on his face.

Han Li nodded.

This is not something he can get involved in.

He had no intention of getting involved in such a scheme.

"Brother Zifang suggested that I serve Qin. Why?" Han Li asked.

Zhang Liang's eyes narrowed and he said faintly: "I don't know, I have a hunch that in the end, the world's game will be between me and him entering and exiting. If I can't find a way to break the game, there will be no more variables in the world. If I If we find a way to break the situation, the world may return to chaos, but I don't have much certainty at the moment."

"So for now, serving Qin is actually a good choice."

"If we wait until the dust settles in the world, even if Brother Han wants to serve in the Qin Dynasty, he may not be well received."

"Brother Han, I would like to express my personal words carefully."

Han Li's eyes moved slightly, and he wondered: "Since Brother Zifang is so afraid of this person, and he describes this person as a god, and this person is so afraid of Brother Zifang, why didn't he kill you directly in Xianyang? Woolen cloth?"

Zhang Liang shook his head.

He was also a little confused.

He said solemnly: "That's not clear."

"He seems to be a little afraid, and he seems to prefer that 'I' exist instead of other 'variables'. However, after I left Xianyang, I made a prediction for this person in private."

"How's the hexagram?" Han Li was somewhat interested.

He knew that Zhang Liang knew the art of divination.

Zhang Liang's eyes were deep and he said quietly: "Judging from the hexagrams, this person has a long history of resistance."

"Life is short!!!"
