Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

Chapter 358 Meeting Wei Liao

Ying Yuan's answer made Ying Zheng very satisfied.

The former is still willing to go through fire and water for the latter.

"As for the matter of alien races, you must already be very clear about it, so let me tell you what you think."

Ying Zheng looked into the distance and asked calmly.

Ying Yuan was a little curious and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what the captain of the country means?"

In the current empire, besides him, if there is another person who can be called a master strategist, then that person must be Wei Liao.

"I didn't ask him about this matter. Since you came to Xianyang, you have been busy with the affairs of the Wang family. It seems that you don't know much about his current situation.

Like Wang Jian, he is also seriously ill, often in a daze, and even has some signs of stupidity. If this continues, I am afraid that he will forget everything in a short time. "

Regarding Wei Liao's situation, Ying Zheng is also very worried.

But birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, he is still troubled by headache symptoms from time to time, how can we help Wei Liao solve his serious illness?
That's why Yingzheng desperately wants to get the elixir of longevity, although he knows in his heart that the 'elixir of longevity' may just be a illusory thing.

But even if the high probability does not exist, he still wants to give it a try. As long as there is a glimmer of hope that he can live forever, he is unwilling to give up.

People's greed cannot be satisfied. After being rich, they still want to gain power, and after gaining power, they still want to become immortals.

But in the end, it was nothing more than a coffin and a handful of loess.

"Although Guowei has not personally participated in any battles, since the invasion of South Korea until now, behind almost every battle launched by the empire, there are Guowei who have made suggestions. It can be said that he has made difficult efforts for the unification of the empire. obliterated contribution.

The younger brother wanted to see him, to see what happened to this unworldly hero, and if he could still do something for the empire. "

Ying Yuan didn't think that Ying Zheng was lying.

He felt that he had a lot to say, and he could chat with Guowei.

In some points of view, even the two are surprisingly consistent.

Therefore, in Wei Liao's later years, Ying Yuan still wanted to take care of him.

Ying Zheng understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to come to Xianyang, some old friends need to meet, but don't be too anxious, I have already brought back Huanju and Zhang Han, who was working abroad.

They have all fought shocking battles with you, and now they finally have this opportunity, I thought, what do you think of calling you together for a gathering? "

Ying Yuan frowned slightly, he didn't know the meaning of Ying Zheng's actions.

But he didn't dare to refuse, so he bowed and said: "Everything is subject to His Majesty's arrangement."

He is definitely going to leave Xianyang, but he still needs to think carefully about when and why.

Ying Zheng nodded contentedly.

The reason why he wanted to transfer Huan Yu back from the southern Fujian area was to discuss some things together, and secondly, to thwart Ying Yuan's progress in leaving Xianyang City.

In fact, his original intention was that since he was here, he might as well stay for a while longer. After all, who can say clearly whether there is any chance to come back in the future?
After leaving here, Ying Yuan did not continue to attend the banquet, but went to Wei Liao's residence.

Once upon a time, there was an endless stream of people in front of the gate of Guowei Mansion, and some people even opened a market here.

But now, it is desolate to the point of embarrassment.

Even pedestrians on the side of the road are unwilling to stay here. After all, there has always been a rumor among the people that Wei Liao angered His Majesty the Emperor, and then he was unwelcome and neglected. He will never restart his official career in his life. possible.

Since this rumor spread, who would dare to maintain too close a relationship with Guowei's Mansion?

If a businessman wants to make money all the time, the best way is not to get involved in politics.

Apparently, the merchants of the empire didn't dare to show too close after seeing the dignified captain lose power.

So much so that it was rumored that Wei Liao had offended His Majesty the Emperor, but in fact, only the two of them knew the truth.

Of course, Ying Yuan doesn't care about the specifics of these situations. He only cares about whether Wei Liao's current situation is as bad as Ying Zheng said.

King Qi visited Guowei's mansion, and he stepped into the gate without notification.

At this time, Wei Liao was hurrying to change clothes.

He hasn't gotten out of bed these days.

Ying Yuan went straight to his room and saw a white-haired old man putting on his shoes in a hurry.

Seeing this, he frowned slightly, and said bluntly: "Old guy, why are you so old?"

When Wei Liao saw Ying Yuan, he felt a little excited, ignored his inappropriate clothes, and hurriedly bowed and said, "The old minister pays homage to the King of Qi."

"The common etiquette can be avoided."

Ying Yuan pointed to the shoes on the ground and said, "I'm waiting for you outside."

Wei Liao showed an intriguing smile, and murmured: "Your lord is still the same lord, nothing has changed."

He put on his clothes in the fastest time, came to stand behind Ying Yuan, and said with a smile: "Why is the prince free to come to this old man?"

Wei Liao, who was always used to calling himself an old man, has now begun to call himself old.

Their generation, after all, is still no match for the erosion of the years, and is getting old.

"Just now I met His Majesty, and His Majesty said that you are old and dim, and your brain is not working very well. I thought you had become stupid, but it seems that there is nothing serious about you except that you are a little old.

What, isn't it like doing something for the Empire? "

Ying Yuan said in a slightly persuasive tone.

Wei Liao stroked his beard and smiled, stretched out his hand to signal Ying Yuan to take a seat, and then slowly said: "My lord, you came to the humble house not just to make fun of the old man, right?"

The latter sat down calmly, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty asked Gu about the foreign race, but Gu Yi couldn't give His Majesty a definite answer. It is said that before the battle in Northern Xinjiang was over, it was you who suggested that Your Majesty let Meng Tian take command and go to Northern Xinjiang?
In this way, you, the national lieutenant, should have a better understanding of the situation of foreign races, right? "

Hearing the sound, Wei Liao relaxed a little, and he responded with a smile: "In terms of the depth of understanding of the situation of foreign races, I'm afraid I'm not as old as one-tenth of you, my lord."

"Old stuff!"

Ying Yuan suddenly yelled, "Hiding and not going to the court, even if His Majesty summoned you, you declined at home saying you were sick. What exactly do you want to do? Who gave you the courage?
Wei Liao, Wei Liao, you really are getting better and better as you live. The world says that you are a little crazy, but from my own perspective, you can see clearly and thoroughly than anyone else. "

As a latecomer, Ying Yuan knows Wei Liao better.

During the period of dominating the world, he was Yingzheng's biggest think tank.

It's just that after dominating the world, it gradually disappeared.

But judging from the current historical stage, it's not that he has disappeared, but that he knows too much about Ying Zheng, and he can't continue to reuse him.

It may be a good choice to let him die at home.

But if he still pursues power blindly, then Lu Buwei's fate will be fulfilled by Wei Liao.
