Beast Taming: Starting from Contracting the Mysterious Beast

this day.

The news of Qin's victory and the unification of all the countries spread throughout Xianyang and the entire Qin State.

All of a sudden.

The people of Xianyang and the people of Daqin also cheered and shouted.

Just as the whole Xianyang and the whole Qin Dynasty were filled with joyful atmosphere.

It was also this day.

Prince Chu of Qin, who had been seriously ill for a long time, seemed to be in much better spirits.

On this day, he hastily summoned many people.

Among them, naturally, there was the Prime Minister Zuo of Great Qin and Marquis Wenxin, Lu Buwei.

"Prime Minister, are you here?"

Ying Zichu sat on the throne.

The sharp gaze was like a fierce tiger, piercing Lu Buwei's body.

Him at this moment.

It seemed like an extremely strong male tiger, perched in the forest, roaring loudly, shocking all directions.

Lu Buwei did not dare to look directly, but slowly lowered his head.

However, that gaze already had a hint of complexity.

Lu Buwei didn't make any extra moves, he just lowered his head slowly: "Your Majesty, Lu Buwei, pay homage to my king!"

A cry.

Ying Zichu said nothing, but his sharp gaze was still quietly focused on Lu Buwei.

Watch for a long time.

Ying Zichu smiled: "Prime Minister, I would like to celebrate for you."

A soft cry.

Lu Buwei was stunned.

Wait until he looks up.

Then I saw that here, Ying Zichu said word by word: "From today on, you will be the prime minister of my Great Qin."

If you are an ordinary person.

Hear what Ying Zichu said.

He must have been ecstatic.

However, it fell on Lu Buwei's ears.

But it's all heavy.

For Xiangbang?

After all, why did he, the Zuo Prime Minister of Great Qin, become the Prime Minister?

To know.

Both are prime ministers.

But there are high and low levels.

In the past, during the reign of Emperor Zhou, there were as few as three prime ministers and as many as more than ten prime ministers.

And Da Qin.

It's not like Emperor Zhou.

But there are four of them.

Prime Minister in the middle, Prime Minister in the right, and Prime Minister in the left.

There is also the Prime Minister who is in the hands of the Prime Minister.

It can be said.

If you are a prime minister.

That is above the Great Qin court.

He has truly achieved the goal of being inferior to one person and superior to millions of people.

He achieved the position of Prime Minister Zuo.

For everyone in the world.

They are all already great ministers.

If nothing happens.

I'm afraid it will be difficult to change again in this life.

not to mention.

Lu Buwei didn't get any credit this time.

But why did he get the position of prime minister?

Lu Buwei lowered his head.

All my thoughts seemed to go back to those years ago.

four years ago.

King Xiaowen succeeded to the throne and became king.

And the Ying Zichu in front of him became the crown prince of Great Qin.

As a confidant of Ying Zichu, he rose from being a retainer to becoming a Tingwei, one of the nine dignitaries of the Qin Dynasty.

three years ago.

King Xiaowen died first.

Lu Buwei changed his position from Prime Minister to Prime Minister Zuo.

And now...

Lu Buwei took a deep breath.

As smart as he is.

I still don't understand what this means.

Almost his whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

this moment.

Lu Buwei didn't even know it himself.

After all, it was because of my excitement after becoming a supreme minister.

Or is it because of the sadness after the old friend in front of me is about to pass away.

Maybe it's the former.

Maybe it's the latter.

Perhaps, it's a bit of both.

After the battle between heaven and man.

Lu Buwei finally showed a sad look on his face: "Your Majesty, it's really..."

The words are not finished yet.

Ying Zichu just smiled and shook his head slowly: "It is difficult to cure with medicine and stone."

Just four simple words.

What it represents is too heavy.

At least for Lu Buwei, it was no less heavy than the sky was about to collapse.

And Lu Buwei saw this.

Ying Zichu was still smiling.

Slowly look towards the east.

That is the direction where Zhao State's Handan is.

A trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes: "Many times, I have been thinking about it."

"Something like fate may be destiny...Mr. Lu, how many years have we known each other? I'm confused, but I can't remember clearly."

Lu Buwei took a deep breath.

Listening to Ying Zichu's words, a sad look flashed in his eyes: "The stranger and Buwei got to know each other in Handan sixteen years ago..."

"Has it been sixteen years?"

Ying Zichu smiled and raised his right hand with some difficulty: "But Yiren felt that it was just yesterday."

"I can't remember many things clearly, but I still remember the days when I was in Handan with my husband..."

"At that time, the gentleman had a fortune, but he was not welcomed and looked down upon. The foreigner was just a little hostage with a life like an ant, and no one cared about him..."

"However, sir, as soon as he saw a strange person, he once said that a strange person... a strange thing can live in."

Lu Buwei heard this and slowly raised his head: "But now, the king is rich and powerful in the Qin Dynasty!"

When saying this.

Lu Buwei's eyes were originally dull, but they twinkled slightly.

These words.

He has never faced Ying Yiren face to face.

But it was just a chat with my father after returning home.

However, at this moment, everything is known to Ying Yiren...

My heart sank straight away.

The Ying Yiren at this moment is no longer the hostage he was back then.

But the King of Qin, who is so high above that he can control the lives and deaths of countless people!

Ying Zichu turned his head and looked at Lu Buwei in front of him: "Sir, you are also the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, giving orders to all the ministers."

silence.

After a long silence.

He saw Lu Buwei with an unusual expression in front of him.

Ying Zichu smiled: "Prime Minister, everyone knows many things."

"The prime minister wants few people to know, but if he doesn't want others to know, everyone will know."

There was a pause.

"Sir, he is attracting many customers and recruiting private soldiers..."

Ying Zichu's eyes were extremely sharp: "Of course, it also includes those things between the Prime Minister and Zhao Ji."

"Boom!"

There was an unusual sound.

Lu Buwei is the prime minister of Qin.

At this moment, his face turned pale.

He immediately collapsed in front of Ying Zichu.

He understands.

Ying Zichu knew many things.

It also includes some of his ulterior secrets.

However, Lu Buwei was not panicked.

Because he understands it too.

Some things just need to be within scope.

Even though it's not legal, he can do it.

Ever since.

One step down, one step down.

Wait until Lu Buwei looks back.

Only then did he realize that the bottom line he had been clinging to had been crossed without even realizing it.

Lu Buwei thought he was doing it secretly.

But at this moment.

He felt that he had become a clown.

Things that I thought were secret.

But it turns out.

From the beginning to the end, Ying Zichu had a full view.

Black ice platform?

When these three words appeared in Lu Buwei's mind.

There was only a moment of coldness left in my heart.

He lay prone on the ground.

He didn't dare to look directly at Ying Zichu.

after a long time.

All he could do was spit out a trembling voice: "My lord, it's a capital crime..."

With Lu Buwei's cleverness.

Of course I understand.

When Ying Zichu clarified all this, what did it mean?

My heart has already sunk to the bottom.

Ying Zichu was still smiling: "Prime Minister, it is indeed a capital crime."

Just saying.

Ying Zichu paused.

On the verge of death.

Ying Zichu had already looked away from many things.

Now facing old friends.

What's left is just a sigh: "I gave you a chance."

"Sir is a friend of the stranger, so I can allow you to do whatever you want with many things, and I can pretend you don't know anything."

"But sir, Zheng'er...is not your friend."

Lu Buwei woke up.

Or.

It’s something that I understood before the connection, but was never willing to face.

He is the confidant of Prince Chu of Qin.

But he will not be the confidant of King Qin Yingzheng.

so.

After not wanting to face all this.

His ending is already doomed.

Just as Ying Zichu said.

He gave Lu Buwei a chance.

Giving up and retreating is sometimes not humiliating, but honorable.

However, this is true.

Lu Buwei himself also understood it.

But I didn’t cherish it...

When the opportunity passes quietly.

His ending is already doomed.

After great enlightenment.

Lu Buwei calmed down instead.

A sad laugh.

"What crime does the king want to punish Bu Wei?"

However, Ying Zichu, on his side, just shook his head slowly: "No, I said, congratulations to the prime minister, you will be my prime minister in the future."

Xiangbang...

These are the two words that Lu Buwei once dreamed of.

But at this moment.

But it became a shackles.

Chain him tightly.

There is no chance of escape.

Lu Buwei was lying on the ground.

But he smiled.

It was just the laughter that covered up the choking and sadness.

The lowered head covered the tears.

Ying Zichu did not want to punish Lu Buwei for his crime.

However this decision.

But it is often colder and more ruthless than punishment.

Some times.

To live is to suffer, but to die is a kind of relief.

Now after Ying Zichu's decision.

Lu Buwei saw his own ending with one glance.

Just like Ying Zixi back then.

He became a big fat sheep in captivity.

And the prince Yingzheng.

After his big fat sheep becomes fat.

Kill them and cook them to fill your stomach.

Lu Buwei laughed miserably.

When he raised his head again, his face was full of stubbornness: "The king is not afraid, the domestic animals are too strong and the master cannot control them!?"

However, Ying Zichu just chuckled: "The sharp blade in Zheng'er's hand is unstoppable."

"In the future, sir, I can get the whole body without harming my family."

This is probably the last thing Ying Yiren, as Lu Buwei's good friend, can do for Lu Buwei.

Ever since.

When Lu Buwei left Xianyang Palace that day.

He staggered, his face was as pale as a walking zombie, and he no longer looked as high-spirited as before.

Some people are dead but still alive.

And some people are alive but already dead.

now.

Next to Ying Zichu's bedroom.

As the empress of Qin, Zhao Ji's palace is next to Ying Zichu.

However.

Ying Zichu had been seriously ill for several months, but Zhao Ji, the queen, had never visited him for a single day.

Even though the distance between the two of them is only a small palace.

But it became an insurmountable wall of sighs, separating the two people who were once in love.

"I heard that your father is seriously ill?"

Facing Ying Zheng, even when she said this.

Zhao Ji's tone was still cold.
