Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 77

"The Zhou family entrusted the world with hundreds of princes. Since the decline of the Zhou Dynasty, the princes have fought, big and small, strong and weak, and the number of princes has decreased, and there will be seven countries. The wars of the countries are endless. The battlefield is where the roads come and go, the fields are uncultivated, the crops are unharvested, the people are anxious about the day and night, and there are countless people who starve to death. In today's situation, our Great Qin is the strongest, but the Six Kingdoms As usual, the world is full of conflicts. The government wants to recruit righteous teachers and wipe out the six kingdoms, does Mr. Liaozi have a clever plan to teach the widows?" King Qin was very impatient, Zhou Chong and Li Si, the first-class masters and apprentices of Wei Liao, sat down and were about to leave. Asked about it.

It can be said that Li Si was invited back by someone specially sent by King Qin, he was given a lot of money, and he was ordered to marry him. It can be said to be a great honor, but compared with the gift of a national scholar who greeted Wei Liao, it was nothing at all, and he was very upset.What surprised him the most was that at the last moment, King Qin invited Zhou Chong to ride with him instead of him.In his mind, although Zhou Chong had a fantastic idea, it was just a trick, but when it comes to governing the world, he really dare not flatter him. Logically speaking, it should be him, not Zhou Chong. .Look at King Qin's meaning, he definitely didn't mean Zhou Chong had recommended Wei Liao to join him, but he had other plans, and he couldn't figure out what the plan was.

As soon as he heard the words of King Qin, he thought it would be a good time to see how Wei Liao would respond.Li Si has given King Qin many strategies to calm the world, otherwise he would not be able to sit here and participate in such a secret event.

Zhou Chong already knew what Wei Liao did for the King of Qin, but Wei Liao's ideas were so clever that Zhou Chong had to admire him, and he wanted to repeat history to see if it was different.

Wei Liao bowed slightly, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, Liaozi has traveled all over the world, and he has been to Korea, Zhao, Yan, Wei, and Chu. Liaozi thought that the six countries lack good generals, loyal ministers and virtuous officials. All that is missing is the same."

"Excuse me, sir, which one is missing?" Qin Wang was a little curious.

Wei Liaozi continued: "What the six countries lack is a wise monarch. Looking at the monarchs of the six countries, they are either mediocre and do not think about making progress, or they are crippled and obsessed with wine and sex. Even if the six countries have good generals and warriors, loyal ministers and virtuous , but not in the position, the ruler is either an incompetent person or a treacherous villain. Zhao has Guo Kai, Qi has a successor, and Chu has Li Garden. The king wants to take the world, and it is the right time. Once the six kingdoms have a Ming emperor, revive the government, and unite to fight against Qin, the world will never know."

"Well said!" The King of Qin clapped his hands and praised: "It's not that there are no capable people in the Six Kingdoms, but capable people are not allowed to take their place. They are either suspected or expelled. The talents Shang Yang, Zhang Yi, and Fan Sui used by my Great Qin are not the best of the Six Kingdoms." People? Which one doesn’t have a life experience that is suspected and not reused? Zhang Yi argues, Fan Sui breaks his ribs, it’s the pain of a sage!”

Not all the talents used by Qin State are all, a large part of them were born in the country of Shandong, which is enough to make future generations think deeply!
Regarding these historical events, Zhou Chong had known for a long time. After hearing the words of the King of Qin, Zhou Chong still had to re-examine the traditional views on Qin, and had to admit that the reason why Qin was strong had its own inevitable reasons.

Wei Liao and his disciples kept nodding their heads, even Li Si, who was in a bad mood, had to say: "Your Majesty is thirsty for talent, so why worry about the uncertainty of the world."

The King of Qin then asked, "May I ask Mr. Liaozi, how would you like to use the world's strategy?"

Wei Liao didn't answer the question, but responded to the King of Qin and said, "Excuse me, Your Majesty, are you willing to part with gold and silk?"

The king of Qin asked a little strangely: "What do you mean by this sir? I want to take over the world, so why do you care about the amount of gold and silk, but you want to use gold and silk? If you want to use it, you can go to the treasury to get it yourself. You don't have to ask me."

"Han Gao used Chen Ping to buy lobbyists all over the world, and gave him gold and silk but did not check the accounts. It is a good story in later generations, saying that he has a boldness. The King of Qin dared to use the treasury for Wei Liaozhi without asking. His courage is even stronger. Grand." Zhou Chong sighed in his heart.

Wei Liao went on to say, "It's not that Liaozi wants to use it, it's the king who wants to use it. There are many powerful ministers in the six countries who are treacherous villains, and the king can leave a lot of money to befriend them. Calculated by Liaozi, the king only needs to spend 30 gold , then the world can be exhausted.”

"The 30 gold will be taken away. This is a very good deal." King Qin showed the side of a profiteer, and said: "The widow will give the husband 40 gold, and the husband will help the widow to plan a strategy for the world."

This was King Qin's generosity again, and Wei Liao was very touched, and said: "Your Majesty, 30 gold is enough."

The King of Qin didn't even think about it, and said: "Whether it's 30 gold or 40 gold, sir, you can withdraw it from the treasury yourself, and you don't have to report it to the widow." All the ministers of the six kingdoms actually didn’t use so much. The property seized from the homes of these ministers was ten times as much as 30 gold. Feng Menglong lamented that this deal was too cost-effective.)
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust." Wei Liao couldn't help but lament the courage of King Qin.

The king of Qin analyzed Wei Liao's strategy and said: "Sir, this plan is brilliant! What I fear most in Great Qin is not the large number of soldiers from the six kingdoms, nor the vast territory and excellent iron equipment of the six kingdoms, but the fact that the six kingdoms will unite. After Su Qin's death, there are few who can achieve success, but the king must take everything into consideration, so he has to take He Zong into consideration. According to Mr.'s plan, if he bought the powerful ministers of the six countries, He Zong could not succeed, and the widows could concentrate their forces to defeat each of them one by one. .”

His reaction was really fast, and he saw through the magical effect of Wei Liao's plan at a glance, which made people have to be convinced.

"Li Si has also offered various defeating strategies to the widow, including assassination and bribery, but it is not as detailed as Mr. Zhou Chong said that Mr. is unparalleled in the country. The world can be pacified." King Qin was amazed.

Li Si quickly pleaded guilty and said: "Your Majesty, this minister is stupid. If you don't say that the King is willing, please punish him."

King Qin waved his hand and said: "Your idea is also very good, but it is not as detailed and practical as Mr. Liaozi's."

"Your Majesty, I am indeed guilty." Li Si continued: "Li Si thought Mr. Liaozi's talent was exaggerated, but now it seems that Li Si is conceited. Mr. Liaozi's talent is ten times better than Li Si's. Li Si is guilty, please punish him. "

Regardless of whether Li Si's words were true or not, or he was using them to win King Qin's favor and respect, it was good that he could speak out what was in his heart.The King of Qin laughed and said, "I have already seen this point. If you can tell me, I am very pleased. This punishment will be exempted."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Si was a clever man, so he naturally knew what to do, saluted Wei Liao, and said, "Mr. Liao Zi, Li Si apologized."

Wei Liao returned the courtesy and said, "Your Majesty Liao speaks too seriously, and Liao Zi doesn't dare to take it seriously. Your Majesty Li is very talented and loyal. It is Qin's great fortune to have your Majesty Li."

"Zhou Chong, what are you thinking when you roll your eyes?" King Qin asked Zhou Chong curiously.

Zhou Chong woke up in shock, thinking that when he was distracted and remembered something, he had seen through it, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I think Mr. Liaozi's plan is very good, but it is not perfect."

"Oh, how can it be considered perfect? ​​Tell me." Qin Wang's interest increased greatly.

Wei Liao's plan is very complete, very detailed, and has reached the operational level, but he thinks it is not perfect, which is indeed a curious thing, let alone Li Si and Wang Ao curious, even Wei Liao himself is a little unbelievable. rush.
