My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 163 We all have a good plan (please give me a monthly ticket!)
On the day Wang Jian returned, Ying Zheng led all the civil and military officials to personally go out of the city to greet him.

Five thousand tiger guards marched together, all lined up on both sides of the road.

Ying Zheng wore a royal robe and personally stood at the east gate of Xianyang City waiting for the triumphant return of the great hero.

Ying Zheng was willing to do this for such a knowledgeable and accomplished official.

When all the civil and military officials saw him, they all envied Wang Jian.

But few people knew that Wang Jian had already written a memorial to Ying Zheng, asking him to return home for leisure due to old illness.

In the east of Xianyang City, black and red flags fluttered in the wind, and tiger guards stood on both sides of the road like straight ghost trees.

The gray-haired Wang Jian saw this scene from a distance, although he was very worried on the way back.

His understanding of Qin Wangzheng did not come from spending time with him day and night.He does not have the opportunity to see Ying Zheng every day like Zhao Gao, Li Si, and Feng Quji. Most of his time is spent in the army and on the battlefield.

But as a civilian, he understands the needs of the soldiers at the bottom, and he also knows the original nature of human nature.

In the past, he had great value to Ying Zheng, so Ying Zheng had no doubts about him, because Ying Zheng needed an invincible general.

But now, most of the land in the world belongs to the prosperous king of Qin.

My own value is no longer what it used to be.

On the way here, Wang Jian knew that after returning to Xianyang, his future life would be more difficult than every day in the past.

Because he accidentally won too many battles, when he looked back, he found that he was already riding a tiger.

From now on, when he is in Xianyang City, he will have to live with his tail between his legs.

Wang Jian already had a lot of yellowish-brown spots on his face. When he was young, he longed to make achievements and stand out. But when he really got ahead, Wang Jian discovered that all these glory, status, and fame came with a price.

After seeing Ying Zheng standing in front of the crowd and holding a sword, Wang Jian immediately turned over and dismounted. He quickly half ran and half walked to Ying Zheng.

"Old minister, I pay homage to your Majesty. May your Majesty live forever."

Because he is too old and is doing such actions, he can't help but look a little funny.

Li Xin was still in a daze as he sat on the horse. Wasn't General Wang very lively and vigorous a few months ago? Why did he age so quickly after a few months?

Ying Zheng looked at the old and gray-haired Wang Jian. He personally helped Wang Jian up and said, "Wuchenghou is so polite. This time, Wuchenghou should take the lead in attacking the Yan Kingdom."

"The king personally welcomed the old minister back to the city. The old minister burst into tears of gratitude." Some clear tears flowed from his cloudy eyes. Li Xin, who arrived later, looked at Wang Jian not as if he was grateful, but as if he was afraid.

Li Xin strode over with majesty. As the most vocal person in the army today, who could be compared with General Wang Ben, Li Xin had a lot of confidence.

"Li Xin pays homage to the king."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Xin, who was still young and had never suffered any losses, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"This time, Lieutenant Li has accomplished a remarkable feat. I have prepared a celebration banquet for you, and also rewarded the three armies."

"The king trusts the general, fulfills the general's wish to gallop on the battlefield, and gives the general the wish to be a general and a marquis. The general is willing to go through life and death for the king, and only hopes that the king can rule the world as soon as possible."

Li Xin spoke seriously from the bottom of his heart, and Ying Zheng was also very happy.

But the other generals standing behind him, those with a higher status than Li Xin, or those who were also captains with him, all managed to smile.

Li Xin stood in front of them, as if he was the most special.

Most of the other generals are grandfathers, and together they have more ideas than ten young people.

Seeing that Li Xin loved to show off himself so much, all the soldiers stood aside silently.

After the visit, Ying Zheng and Wang Jian entered the palace in the same carriage, while Li Xin had to follow Ying Zheng's carriage back to the palace along with other generals. These veteran generals all gathered together and did not speak to Li Xin.

Li Xin didn't know what was happening, so he just got involved.

"Generals, now two-thirds of the land in the world belongs to the king. Next there are Chu, Wei, and Qi. I am ready. I will ask the king to let me be the vanguard at the celebration banquet. , go directly to attack the capital of Chu State."

"Good good-"

"What General Lee said is absolutely true."

"We are all optimistic about General Li. You will definitely be able to win this battle and come back."

"Yes, yes. We are all old, and among the younger generation of generals, you are the only one, Li Xin."

Li Xin was praised so much that the back of his head felt hot. This was the first time in his life that so many people had praised him.

"No way, I feel that compared to General Ben, I am still far behind in terms of actual combat numbers."

"What's the point? See how much the king likes you now. When the time comes, you will ask the king to send a young general of yours to lead an army to attack Chu. By then, you will be able to rival General Bi in terms of actual combat numbers. .”

These old generals all laughed, including generals Feng Wuze and Feng Jie.

Feng Jie did not participate in these words, he just listened, followed, and smiled.

The road that welcomed Wang Jian into the city had been cleared in advance, so there was no one on the street.

But on the outside of the road blocked by soldiers with horse-repelling stakes, countless Xianyang people gathered outside.

They cheered, and among the soldiers returning in triumph were their fathers, sons, and brothers.

They shouted the names of their loved ones.

Some soldiers heard someone calling their names and naturally called out to them; but some mothers, wives, and children, no matter how they called, their sons, husbands, and fathers would not answer them.

The war was won, but some people remained on the distant battlefield forever.
-
The palace became lively again, and the atmosphere was very lively and in full swing.

There were bright red flowers placed in the palace, and joy was exaggerated everywhere.

At this time, Xianyang City was really full of powerful generals, wise men and celebrities gathered together, and it was very lively.

A celebration banquet, including the ministers of civil and military affairs, plus the soldiers who have made meritorious deeds, will take at least 200 people.

As one of the Seven Heroes, the Qin State was at its most prosperous than this.

King Qin sat on the throne, enjoying the joy of victory.

In contrast, Lord Changping, who had his title and fiefdom taken back by Ying Zheng a few days ago, was like an old melon that no one picked in the autumn, listless all day long.

He was invited to Yuyang Palace by Fusu. As Fusu's official Taifu, Xiong Qi never thought of teaching Fusu anything.

He was just waiting for an opportunity. When Ying Zheng made a mistake, he would incite the prince to revolt.

But before the uprising, the prince must obtain the talisman of the army, which requires at least hundreds of thousands of troops, so that he can enter Xianyang City.

Xiong Qi sat on the mat in the main hall of Yuyang Palace.

The servants, eunuchs, and guards who came and went all had to salute after seeing the former prime minister.

Because of Xiong Qi's arrival, the atmosphere in Yuyang Palace suddenly changed.

In the past, the owner of this palace was a young prince who spoke his mind and did whatever he wanted. The palace was surrounded by such energetic young people. The mood of these eunuchs was also very different from that of the people in other palaces.

But after Xiong Qi arrived, everyone began to have concerns
It was a sunny day, and other palaces were full of joy and laughter.

Ying Zheng not only rewarded the three armies, but also rewarded the people in the palace accordingly.

Although the people in Yuyang Palace also received rewards, everyone celebrated in a low voice with joy, and everyone in the palace felt that something was missing.Lord Changping did not take Fusu into the room to teach, let alone reason with him.

Just sitting cross-legged on the palace mat alone, looking up at the high and far sky, sitting there for a whole day.

People passing by always saw Changping Jun looking at the clouds in the sky, stroking his beard and thinking deeply.

He was preparing a foolproof strategy for Fusu, how to drive the army into Xianyang as quickly as possible, and how to protect himself once the prince attacked Xianyang.

Now he no longer has those fiefdoms, only his family property, farm and house, retainers, and dead soldiers are left.

There are not enough of these people.

When he put down the Lao'ai Rebellion, he mobilized [-] soldiers in Xianyang.

Xiong Qi pondered.

Xin sat indoors and couldn't help but cast his eyes on Taifu.

"The way the master is doing this is in line with the prince's wishes. I'm afraid the prince will be more unrestrained in the future."

Xin is worried about this.

Liang's expression was solemn, as if a disaster was imminent.

"I think there will never be peace in Yuyang Palace from now on."

After saying this, Liang buried his head in the book.

At this time, Fusu was sitting next to Liao.

"The country you want to build, that's the country the saints want to build. But no one has ever done it since ancient times."

"Master, you always teach me not to overestimate your own power. You once said that as an individual, your own power is always limited."

"So what do you want to do?"

"I want to go out of the palace to find people who share the same goals with me. I looked through the history books and found that the history of the past thousands of years has been the same, just repeating itself. I don't think that the establishment of counties and counties can make our Qin country peaceful. Like other vassal states in the world, they will never decline or perish."

"But you are different from others. You are the prince. How are you going to find him?"

"I have my own way." Fusu was still confident about finding someone. He knew where the famous people in history lived.

Liao closed his eyes and stroked his beard. After a long time, he slowly said, "You come to me because you actually want me to intercede for you. In fact, your real intention is to lead the army to attack Chu State, established meritorious deeds.”

"That's right. Apart from you, I can't think of anyone else who can convince my father."

Ying Zheng agreed to let Fusu go to the Yan Kingdom to escort grain and grass, but the Yan Kingdom was finished and there was no place where he was needed anymore.

Fusu was certain that according to Ying Zheng's personality of conquering, he must be discussing with Li Si and others the next plan to attack Chu.

He had to hurry.

"Prince, it's useless for you to come to me about this matter."

"But in Xianyang City today, there are not many people who can be respected by my father."

"You don't know your father. I am not someone your father respects. Before I told you the plan to destroy the Six Kingdoms, I was the person your father valued. But after I told you such a plan, I Not anymore.”

"Maybe everyone has shortcomings of one kind or another."

"No. This is not a shortcoming. As a king, it is right for him to do this."

"The only person Fusu can convince is you, Guowei. If you are not willing to speak for me, then I can only sit in this palace, unable to do anything. At that time, I promise to the people of Yingchuan County , and cannot be honored.”

Liao shook his head helplessly, "It's useless even if you beg me for this matter. However, I can show you a way."

"Please tell the master."

"The person who can help you with this matter is a woman. As long as she is willing to speak, this matter will most likely be accomplished. But if she is not willing, you will persuade the Chinese civil and military officials, your father-in-law I won’t agree to it either.”

Fusu wondered, "Who has such great ability? She is actually a woman."

Liao shook his head helplessly.

"I'll stop here. You can think about the rest by yourself. Don't bother me again."

Liao said, walked into the inner room, closed the door and meditated.

I don’t know when cultivation started. Anyway, in the era when Fusu was alive, there were people like this everywhere.

They eat grain, maintain health, and practice Taoism, some for longevity, and some for longevity.

The same is true for Liao.

It is said that there is a very powerful figure among the people, named Chisongzi. His understanding of Tao is very deep, and he is close to the so-called heavenly being.

Fusu had no interest in these people or things at all.

But after seeing a monk like Liao with his own eyes, Fusu instead speculated on what state Lao Tzu was in 100 years ago.

And practicing Taoism is just to make myself relaxed and happy. At least Liao gives himself the feeling that he is in good condition.

There is no worldly expert who pretends not to care about worldly affairs, nor does he talk about asking for immortality all day long.

He is a very calm person and does what he should do every day.

Fusu sat in the outer room and took a long breath.

Separated by a door, the pursuits of people inside and outside the wall are completely different.

Liao just wanted to eat two bowls of rice every day and get up early and go to bed early; Fusu wanted much more.

Even though Liao gave the hint, Fusu still couldn't think of anyone who could convince his father.

In the current Qin State, Ying Zheng is the sky.

He alone has the final say on all matters in the country.

With supreme power, does he still need to be respectful to others?

While Fusu was thinking hard, news suddenly came out in the palace that Wang Jian was ill, and Ying Zheng took back the talisman of his general.

Fusu had no choice but to bite the bullet and go see Ying Zheng again when he encountered such a difficult master.

The last time he came to see Ying Zheng was because he asked Ying Zheng to let Lord Chang Ping do the work of Tai Tu for him.

Everyone knew everything, but they still had to work hard on face. For Xiong Qi, Fusu tried his best to give him as much face as possible.

This is also what Ying Zheng learned. At any time, you should never openly turn against someone, and treat others in a gentle manner, unless you have decided to kill him.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince asks to see you."

When the eunuch came to report, Ying Zheng was listening to Li Xin expounding his proposal to attack Chu.

Upon hearing Fusu's request for a meeting, Ying Zheng knew that he was here for this reason as well.

But Fusu doesn't know what it means to lead troops to fight.
