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

Chapter 359 Fighting for Power
As soon as the words fell, Ying Yuan felt in a trance, as if returning to a night many years ago.

It also came out of Zhangtai Palace.

At that time, he had just finished solving Lu Buwei's matter.

Wei Liao entered the palace with him to meet Ying Zheng, and then left together.

On the way, Wei Liao said that he has the destiny of an emperor.

In the blink of an eye, many years have passed, it seems that that incident happened yesterday, and it is still vivid in my mind.

Ying Yuan once suspected that it was Wei Liao who wanted to harm him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile.

It was this simple smile that suddenly made Wei Liao feel a little bad.

He frowned and said: "My lord, to tell you the truth, sometimes the old man's brain is not enough. Most of the things in the past can't be remembered, and he doesn't want to think about the future. It’s a beautiful thing.”

In the present Daqin, there are still many disadvantages and problems that have not been resolved, but Wei Liao has already felt what it means to be powerless.

It is better to just retire and leave those problems for future generations to solve.

"Are you finally admitting that you're pretending to be crazy?"

Ying Yuan sneered, and continued: "I still remember that you once told Gu that you were destined to be an emperor. Now, Gu has indeed sat on the throne. Speaking of which, I have to thank you for your straight-talking, bro." what."

Wei Liao was a little surprised, and many beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, he said nervously, "My lord, you don't have to remember the past so clearly, right?"

He actually remembered that scene.

It's just been hidden in my heart all these years.

Because he has a strong feeling that Ying Yuan's fate does not seem to stop with a Qi king.

It is difficult for him to be called lonely and widowed, and it is difficult to echo his fate.

"There are only you and me here, so there is no need to be jealous. In short, I don't believe in fate, I only believe in my own strength."

After a pause, Ying Yuan said bluntly: "The purpose of Gu coming here is to tell you that if you can still do something for the empire, you can come out and do it for another two years. It is impossible for Gu to stay in Xianyang forever.

Gu will have to go back sooner or later. After Gu returns, it will be very dangerous for His Majesty without someone like you to accompany him. "

Both Li Si and Zhao Gao have too much selfish desire.

Meng Yi is going to focus on the major issues of military and political reform.

At present, apart from Wei Liao, it seems that there is basically no one who is more suitable to stay with Ying Zheng than him.

Of course he also knew what Ying Yuan was thinking.

However, the fact is that Ying Zheng believes that he no longer needs Wei Liao's assistance.

"Your Majesty has his own ideas, how can we courtiers intervene?"

He asked back.

Ying Yuan said: "Our Majesty seems to be cruel and heartless, but in fact he is the most soft-hearted, otherwise, he would not appear hesitant when it comes to the issue of loneliness, but in fact, he understands it in his heart.

If you return to His Majesty's side again, you may also offer advice to His Majesty on how to deal with Gu's Qi County. Gu also understands this.

But even so, Gu also hopes that you don't just meddle in political affairs so early, and use your remaining heat. His Majesty needs you, and Qin also needs you. "

This sentence is not false.

Judging from the current historical process, without Wei Liao's assistance by Ying Zheng's side, many ideas that were inappropriate or out of date were indeed derived.

As for the construction of the Qin Zhidao, it was the result of a joint discussion between Wei Liao, Li Si and other ministers before the outbreak of the Northern Xinjiang Campaign.

"My lord, today is different. Our Majesty is unprecedented. No one can violate what he is going to do.

To put it bluntly, unless His Majesty is old, otherwise, this world, under His Majesty's governance, will never be chaotic.But, just in case that day comes."

After a pause, Wei Liao stared at Ying Yuan, and said solemnly: "As long as you and Your Majesty are alive alone, there will be no major disturbances in the Qin Kingdom, but I know very well that Your Majesty's body is already belonged to foreign powers and middle-aged people." If you still rely on the methods of those alchemists from the Yin Yang family, I'm afraid."

Having said that, he didn't dare to continue talking.

Facing Ying Yuan, he really didn't need to hide anything, he had always said something, but this didn't mean that some things could be said directly, and he still needed to stop.

"If you have Li Si's ambition, it is estimated that the current Prime Minister of Qin Dynasty is not him, but you."

Ying Yuan said with emotion from the bottom of his heart.

Wei Liao has shown amazing abilities both in governing the country and in diplomatic expeditions.

It's just that he never had a heart for power.

All he wanted to do was to find a place to display his talents.

In Ying Yuan's eyes, a talent like Wei Liao was no less than Han Fei.

It's just that the direction of their main attack is different.

Han Fei didn't have Wei Liao's huge and macro strategic awareness. Similarly, the latter didn't have the brain wisdom of the former.

If the two of them can form a team, Daqin should be much stronger than it is now.

Of course, this is just Ying Yuan's fantasy.

But one thing is undeniable, that is, if Wei Liao's talents and learning are wasted like this, it would be a bit reckless.

"My lord, don't say such things in the future. You pat your buttocks and leave. If the words on your back foot reach Li Si's ears, I'm afraid the old man will be unable to eat and walk away, and even get hurt. Descendants."

Wei Liao smiled wryly.

Before he unified the world, his political views with Li Si began to have differences.

Over the years, the two have been in a situation of fighting openly and secretly.

Now that Wei Liao has lost power, if he hadn't relied on the emperor's trust in him, Li Si would have started to slowly uproot the power he had carefully arranged for many years in the court.

Although he is an official in the same dynasty, he still talks and laughs on weekdays, but if it really reaches a certain point, it belongs to that kind of endless situation, wishing to beat you to death with a stick, so that you can never stand up forever.

The people at the bottom are happy to see the bosses at the top fighting to the death. Only in this way can they have a chance to rise to the top.

So sometimes, it's not about whether you want to fight or not, but the people below will change their ways and let you fight.

Over time, the political outlook of an imperial court will naturally not be very good.

Both Ying Yuan and Wei Liao are well aware of this matter, so is there any reason why Ying Zheng is not clear?

Why is he happy to see Ying Yuan fighting Li Si?After the former left, another Wei Liao came up and continued to fight with Li Si?
In the final analysis, the reason is that once the officials standing on the top of the mountain get into a dispute, relatively speaking, there will only be benefits and no harm to the civilians below.

Of course, there are no absolutes in the world. If something like Rush happens, it can be big or small.

To put it bluntly, if a few soldiers were killed, it would be those high-level people who would be implicated in the end.

When it gets bigger, the world is full of wars, and at that time, more people will die.

"You, you always like to look forward and backward when doing things, and you always like to worry about other people's feelings first. Daqin is very happy to have you as a veteran. If what Gu said is if
If Li Si really intends to attack your family, then he should come to Qi County. It is better to teach in Xiaoshengxianzhuang than to die of old age on the bed. "

Ying Yuan said very sincerely.

Wei Liao smiled, bowed solemnly and said: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord, I am so grateful, so grateful!"
