My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Under the starry night, Ying Chengyu took a group of family soldiers and set off eastward.

At the same time, Ying Zheng also drove quickly back to Xianyang Palace.

When he arrived at the imperial study, Ying Zheng asked eagerly: "Where is the memorial to Marquis Wenxin!"

Su Jiao, who was on duty, responded quickly: "Servant Meng specially told me to put it on the top of the bamboo basket."

Seeing that Ying Zheng had no intention of coming to the bamboo basket to get it, Su Jiao suddenly leaned over, picked out five bamboo tubes from the bamboo basket and placed them on Ying Zheng's desk.

After carefully checking the mud seal letter and confirming that it was intact, Ying Zheng opened the mud seal and poured out the bamboo slips inside.

Unfolding the first scroll of bamboo slips, Ying Zheng saw the familiar font that he couldn't be more familiar with.

[Your Majesty, Marquis Wenxin is here in Luoyi to bow down to your Majesty! 】

【Since I left the dynasty, many things have happened in the Qin Dynasty, and a great war has begun. In order to seize the land of Wei and defeat the enemies of the three kingdoms of Zhao, Chu and Yan, I have won the admiration of the whole world. 】

[Great Qin has withstood a great battle and proved to the world that even if Great Qin has been fighting for a long time, it is still not something that can be coveted by other heroes. I congratulate Great Qin! 】

[Chang'an Lord destroyed the country twice, which is enough to prove that he is an unparalleled general. I congratulate Chang'an Lord! 】

[Your Majesty’s ambition has been further realized. Not only did he follow the aspirations of the previous kings and leave Hangu eastward, but he also seized the fertile land of the Central Plains for our Qin territory. I congratulate you, Your Majesty! 】

A smile appeared on Ying Zheng's lips unconsciously: "How could Marquis Wenxin say such beautiful words?"

"It can be seen that Marquis Wenxin doesn't know how to speak, but he just doesn't want to speak!"

Seeing Lu Buwei's praise, Ying Zheng felt as if he had drank a bowl of hot soup, his internal organs were ironed, and his heart felt refreshed!

If Lu Buwei had praised him like this throughout the article, then expressed his feelings about his own aging, and finally thought that he was too old to control the fiefdom, he voluntarily returned Luoyi and Lantian to the court.

Although Ying Zheng will still be cold and wary of Lu Buwei in terms of outward performance, he may be willing to allow Lu Buwei to escape unscathed, and even give him some respect.

However, Lu Buwei did not retreat with all his might!

[However, winter and summer cannot be punished at the same time; grass and crops cannot be divided into two parts; new grains are ripe but old grains are lost; those with horns have no upper teeth; those with abundant fruits will have trees that grow taller; those who use wisdom to grow crops will not achieve success. also! 】

[Therefore, the emperor is not in perfection, not in extreme, not in surplus. If it is complete, it will be lacking, if it is extreme, it will be reversed, and if it is full, it will be lost. The ancient king knew that things cannot be divided into two categories, so he chose his tasks and dealt with them appropriately! 】

When he saw the first word of these bamboo slips, Ying Zheng's mind automatically filled in the following words.

Winter and summer cannot form at the same time, and weeds and crops cannot grow together. By the time the new grain matures, the old grain must have been in short supply.

All animals with horns have no upper teeth, trees with many fruits must grow low, and people with narrow-minded ideas will not succeed in doing things. These are the laws of nature.

Therefore, when the emperor does things, he does not do them perfectly, nor does he do them extremely, nor does he do them satisfactorily. Perfection will turn to imperfection, extreme will turn to its opposite, fullness will turn to loss.

The late king knew that things cannot develop and grow in both directions at the same time, so he had to choose things and only do what was suitable for him.

This is the words in "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals·Bugoulun·Bo Zhi". It is also the truth that Lu Buwei taught him when he was ten years old. It is also the origin of the idiom "things must be reversed when they reach their extremes".

As Lu Buwei left the court, Ying Zheng deliberately forgot "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" and Lu Buwei's previous teachings.

But everything he had written down during those years of hard study rushed back to Ying Zheng’s brain with a memorial from Lu Buwei!

Ying Zheng's face couldn't help but look a little ugly.

[Your Majesty, don’t be too extreme when doing things, choose your tasks! 】

[The newly attached land is called the territory of Qin, and it cannot be used by Qin. 】

[Although the newly acquired people are young and strong, they are not as brave as the old Qin warriors, and they still need to be cultivated over the years. 】

[However, thousands of people from Han and Wei poured into the Qin Dynasty, and all kinds of people, thoughts, forces, and demands have actually affected and dragged down the entire Qin Dynasty. 】

[Today’s Qin Dynasty seems to be cooking in a blazing fire, but in fact it is in danger. 】

[I know that the king must intend to continue to expand the territory of Qin after a brief rest. 】

[Of course, the internal chaos in Da Qin is the top priority! 】

[The arrow is fast, but it does not travel more than two miles, and it stops. 】

[The step is too late, but the hundred sacrifices will not stop! 】

【King! 】

【slower! Please, Your Majesty, please slow down! 】

[First deal with the internal affairs of Qin, eliminate the conflicts between all parties, cultivate talents for later use, teach all the people to respect Qin's orders, know Qin's will, and admire Qin's kindness. Only when Qin's internal problems are eliminated can Da Qin regain its territory. 】

[If we don’t act like this, what if we, the Qin Dynasty, dominate the world? 】

【It will only leave a lot of trouble! 】

[Once there is no king to control it, all disasters will surely occur, causing our mountains and rivers in Daqin to be broken, and the sacrifices to be destroyed! 】

The handwriting of the last few words was obviously darker, and Lu Buwei was obviously quite excited when he wrote this paragraph.

And the one who was more excited than him was Ying Zheng!

"presumptuous!"

Ying Zheng threw the bamboo slips to the ground angrily, and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back: "Do you think our Great Qin will be full of trouble?"

"You said that when I die, the Qin Dynasty will perish?"

Ying Zheng suddenly took out his right hand and pointed at the bamboo slip that fell to the ground, and said angrily: "It is the way of the emperor not to be complete, not to be extreme, and not to be excessive."

"Of course, intimidating the king is not the way to be a minister!"

If Li Si were here, he would definitely be able to see through Ying Zheng's angry appearance and see the core of Ying Zheng.

If Ying Zheng felt that everything Lu Buwei said was wrong, Ying Zheng would just laugh it off and even lament that Lu Buwei was really old.

It is precisely because Ying Zheng recognized Lu Buwei's analysis that Ying Zheng was so angry.

But while approving it, Ying Zheng was resisting, resisting, and unwilling to accept Lu Buwei's analysis!

After the death of Han, the powerful people of Han were plowed by Ying Chengyu and Ying Zheng successively, and there were not many people left who could be called Taoists.

However, after the fall of Wei, Ying Chengyu was too late to go on a killing spree, leaving behind many old Wei forces.

Ying Zheng could already feel the impending moves of these forces, and could clearly feel the pressure that the doubling of territory would put on all aspects of Da Qin.

Da Qin can still bear the pressure for the time being.

But if Da Qin really unified the world, how much pressure would Da Qin and Ying Zheng bear?

Ying Zheng doesn’t know.

Because the last person who started from a vassal state and unified the world has been dead for eight hundred years!

Now Lu Buwei has given a verdict to Ying Zheng.

What if Da Qin really hits the target of domination of the world like a sharp arrow?

If Ying Zheng collapses, Great Qin will perish!

Unfortunately, Li Si had already been promoted to Jiuqing, and Meng Tian was sleeping soundly.

The only one left in the imperial study was Su Jiao, who had just taken office a few days ago.

He didn't understand why Ying Zheng was so angry. He just looked at Ying Zheng nervously and carefully, not knowing whether he should step forward to persuade or pick up the bamboo slips.

Seeing Su Jiao's helpless look, Ying Zheng waved his hand: "Get out!"

If Su Jiao was pardoned, he quickly handed over his hand: "Wei!"

After driving Su Jiao away, Ying Zheng was silent for a long time, picked up the bamboo slips, put them on his desk, and opened the second bamboo tube.

[In today’s world, Qin is the only strong one. 】

[However, the power of diplomacy is not only determined by strength or weakness. 】

[The King of Zhao is brave, but his prime minister, Guo Kai, is very selfish. 】

[King Yan of Zhao once sent Guo Kai to invite his ministers to join Zhao, but Guo Kai's words were often evasive and his refusal was obvious. 】

[Zhao Wang Yanli moved to the crown prince. He was incompetent, and his officials were not happy with him. In their opinion, he was not a wise master. 】

[I thought that I could encourage Guo Kai to assassinate King Yan of Zhao and support Zhao Qian to succeed him as soon as possible. In this way, Qin would become stronger and Zhao would become weaker. 】

[The current internal disadvantage of Chu lies in the struggle for the throne. As far as I know, Prince Chu of Chu intends to seize the throne of the King of Chu, and I, the Prime Minister of Qin Dynasty, Bangqi, also intends to seize this position. 】

[I ask the king to take action secretly, so that the three parties can check and balance, so that Chu will always be in internal fighting. In this way, Qin will become stronger and Chu will become weaker. 】

【Yan...】

Based on today's world and combined with various intelligence he received, Lu Buwei reorganized the diplomatic policies and starting points for Ying Zheng.

In the next three volumes of bamboo slips, Lu Buwei carefully and conscientiously analyzed and advised Yingzheng from multiple perspectives such as internal affairs, people's livelihood, and law.

He was afraid that it would be difficult for Ying Zheng to understand if he was not around to explain.

It can be said that Lu Buwei broke his idea into pieces, chewed it up, made it at the most suitable temperature for entrance, and handed it to Ying Zheng's mouth.

The more he looked, the more complicated Ying Zheng's eyes became.

After reading the last bamboo slip, Ying Zheng sighed softly: "Father Zhong."

"I am no longer the child I once was!"

Looking at the words Lu Buwei carved on the bamboo slips, Ying Zheng could feel the deep concern that Lu Buwei had engraved on the bamboo slips.

However, this is not what Ying Zheng wants!

Touching the carvings on the bamboo slips, Ying Zheng murmured softly: "My ancestors were brave and brave, and my ancestors were brave and brave. I think I am not inferior to our ancestors."

"We, the kings of the Qin Dynasty, are all brave and brave, but that doesn't mean that my descendants can also be brave."

"I can't believe that heaven will favor me again and give me a wise master of Great Qin!"

"I don't even want to see one evil obstacle squander all the national power accumulated by generations of kings of the Qin Dynasty!"

"What I want is to rule the world with me!"

Instead of leaving the pressure to others, Ying Zheng only believed in himself.

So Ying Zheng only needs advice on how to consolidate his internal affairs while helping him sweep through the six countries.

For Ying Zheng, apart from the diplomatic policy, Lu Buwei's painstaking efforts to write ten thousand words of advice are useless!

After a few breaths of silence, Ying Zheng rolled up the bamboo slips again, stored them in a bamboo tube, and hid them under the table.

Just after finishing all this, Su Jiao's low voice sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, in half an hour it will be time for the court meeting."

"Your Majesty, do you want to take a nap for a while?"

Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment.

Time flies by so fast!

Yesterday's memorial has not been approved yet, and the content to be discussed today has not been thought through.

I don't have time to sleep!

Ying Zheng immediately ordered: "Send a memorial to the Three Lords and Nine Ministers to enter!"

"Instruct Shang Shiling to bring you a bowl of hot soup."

Not choosing to take advantage of this time to sleep for a while, Ying Zheng took the time to process the memorial and finally completed all the preparations before the officials entered.

"Greetings to your Majesty!" As they raised their hands, many courtiers noticed that Ying Zheng's imperial robes were wrinkled.

Ying Zheng returned the courtesy with his hands raised: "Your Majesty, please excuse me."

After the officials were seated, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "Did you find out anything about Prince Yan falling into the water last night?"

Li Si immediately stepped forward and handed over his hand: "I submit the king's order and investigate it all night."

"I found out that the ranger last night was from Zhao Di, Xing Li."

"This man was once a guest of Zhao Xiangkai. He was expelled because he was addicted to alcohol but often caused trouble after drinking."

"After leaving Zhao, this man traveled around the world. Hearing about the benevolence and righteousness of Prince Yan, he entered Qin and went to Prince Yan."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly.

Guo Kai's former retainer?

Does Guo Kai have any reason to assassinate Yan Dan?

There is a reason.

If Yan Dan died in Qin, the alliance between Qin and Yan would be difficult to survive, and Zhao could continue to attack Yan to gain territory.

But Ying Zheng thought that this matter would not be that simple, so he continued to ask: "Can his family members be found?"

Li Si shook his head: "This person's family members are still in Zhao, and they may be difficult to find."

The family members are also in Zhao land, so the suspicion of Zhao country is even greater.

Ying Zheng commanded in a deep voice: "It's hard to find but you should look for it."

"Prince Yan is in danger in our Qin Dynasty, and our Qin Dynasty will investigate and find out the truth for him!"

Feeling Ying Zheng's firm attitude, Li Si's heart condensed and he suddenly handed over his hand: "Wei!"

Li Si entered the procession, the ministers presented the memorial, and the court meeting started as usual.

However, when the sky was getting bright and the court meeting was about to end, Meng Tian quickly stepped inside and whispered:

"Your Majesty, many foreigners have gathered outside the palace gate!"
