My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Is there anything wrong with Yingzheng deposing Lu Buwei?

Nothing wrong.

"Qin Law" stipulates that if an official is guilty, he will be jointly punished by the governor. If Lao Ai is guilty of rebellion, Lu Buwei, as the leader, should be jointly punished. Yingzheng's failure to sentence Lu Buwei's three clans to death for rebellion is already a preferential treatment.

Moreover, Lu Buwei's political opinions and strategic plans are different from those of Ying Zheng. Lu Buwei's high position is harmful to Ying Zheng's plan!

Whether it is from the perspective of law, power or national development, Ying Zheng needs to depose Lu Buwei.

So is there something wrong with Sun Ning and others admonishing Lu Buwei for returning to the court?

Nothing wrong with it either.

In the law, the recommendation system was implemented very loosely in practice. For example, Zheng Anping, who was recommended by Fan Ju, led his army to defect, and Wang Ji, who was recommended by Fan Ju, colluded with the princes to conspire and was executed. However, King Qin Zhao not only did not punish Fan Ju for this, but was afraid of it. Fan Ju was worried, so he extended the reward and ordered that the affairs of Zheng Anping and Wang Ji should not be discussed in the country.

If Fan Ju is like this, why can't Lu Buwei enjoy such treatment?

Lu Buwei's contribution to the Qin Dynasty is no less than that of Fan Ju!

Yu Gong, Lu Buwei's ability is stronger than Xiong Qi, Lu Buwei is more qualified than Xiong Qi for the position of prime minister, Sun Ning and others are not telling lies with their eyes open, but just telling the truth without considering the dynasty dispute. That’s all.

It is true that Sun Ning himself has a strong utilitarianism.

But Da Qin is not Qi!

In Da Qin, it was normal for a minister to be unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, unjust, and full of utilitarianism. As long as he was talented and did not break the law, he was worthy of reuse.

Da Qin is not South Korea either!

Ying Zheng could not acquiesce that every official of the Qin Dynasty could see the situation in the Qing court and understand the way of imperial struggle.

The group of fighting men who rose to high positions with their military exploits really couldn't understand the relationship between the princes in the court. They just thought that Lu Buwei was more capable, so they supported Lu Buwei.

Therefore, Ying Zheng cannot punish Sun Ning and others because of their remonstrance.

Otherwise, wouldn’t it chill the hearts of those who really want to give advice?

Facing the shouts of more than 2,000 people, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "I know the advice of the ministers."

"Of course, although Marquis Wenxin is talented, he is old and confused and has no ability to recognize people."

"Mr. Changping is also capable, enough to serve as the prime minister of our great Qin state!"

Ying Zheng first expressed his attitude and concluded the commotion, and then his voice became serious:

"And the prosperity of Great Qin lies not in one prime minister, but in the thousands of officials in our Great Qin!"

"If you accept your responsibilities, you will be responsible!"

"All of you, my beloved ministers, don't know how to advise me, Great Qin!"

"This is the way to write an admonition into a memorial, and hand it over to the person who is paying the respect, and the ministers and ministers will forward it to me."

"Instead of going to the Yamen to answer questions and neglecting political affairs, you go to gather outside the Xianyang Palace and scream. You dear ministers regard your duties as child's play!"

"Pass the widow's order!"

"Everyone who is making noise outside the palace today will take the Qin Code test again."

"Admonishment officials such as the doctor and Yilang will be fined one year's salary!"

"Those who do not remonstrate with officials but act in vain will be dismissed from their posts!"

Ying Zheng did not take issue with the words of Sun Ning and others' advice, but the way in which Sun Ning and others advised them.

The punishment of being fined one year's salary and being dismissed from one's post is severe.

But it made many people who advised him breathe a sigh of relief.

Ying Zheng was able to vent his anger on the spot, which also saved them from worrying in the future.

Of course, many people raised their hands and shouted: "I know you are guilty!"

Ying Zheng glanced at everyone with cold eyes and said quietly: "Go back to the palace."

Ying Zheng walked away with a cold expression on his sleeves.

Lu Buwei! Lu Buwei! Lu Buwei!

Ever since Ying Zheng had not returned to Da Qin, his life had been shadowed by Lu Buwei.

Before taking office, Ying Zheng's actions, words and even thoughts were influenced by Lu Buwei.

Ying Zheng will never forget his feeling of powerlessness when Lu Buwei was in power.

When Ying Zheng took charge and deposed Lu Buwei, Ying Zheng finally got rid of this shadow and began to realize his own pursuit of life.

But in recent days, Lu Buwei's name kept appearing around Ying Zheng like maggots in the tarsus.

And all this just stemmed from Lu Buwei submitting a memorial!

Li Si asked which pot he did not open and raised: "Your Majesty, listening to what Dr. Sun and others have said, does Marquis Wenxin have something to say?"

"I wonder if I can take a look?"

Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si: "You also intend to welcome Marquis Wenxin back to the court?"

Only Qing, without love, shows Ying Zheng's attitude.

However, Li Si calmly handed it over: "I really think that Marquis Wenxin has great talent."

"Although Marquis Wenxin's thinking is too conservative and is not conducive to today's Qin Dynasty."

"But this cannot conceal the talent of Marquis Wenxin, and there are many people in the court who think differently."

"Now that the king's power has grown stronger and stronger, it is enough to convince Marquis Wenxin to be used by the king. He can make Marquis Wenxin the prime minister to check for deficiencies."

"Of course, after all, times have changed and Marquis Wenxin has aged."

"I think that to judge whether Marquis Wenxin has the ability to return to the court and serve as prime minister, we must first see how much of his former style is present in his performance."

Li Si did not hide his support for Lu Buwei.

Everything can be leaked.

Instead of pretending in front of Ying Zheng that he opposes Lu Buwei's return to the court, and then waiting for Ying Zheng to find out that he is actually the supporter behind Sun Ning and others, it is better to directly reveal his identity and give his reasons.

Ying Zheng shook his head: "It's just ridiculous words."

"No need to watch."

Li Si said seriously: "Your Majesty, I think that Marquis Wenxin is a great talent!"

"Don't worry about whether Marquis Wenxin will return to the court or not. All of Marquis Wenxin's advice should be carefully considered!"

Xiong Qi immediately refuted: "What Li Shangqing said is totally wrong!"

"Of course, Marquis Wenxin's conservatism cannot cover up his talent, but when Marquis Wenxin's thoughts are completely opposite to those of the king, Marquis Wenxin's talent will only become a stumbling block for our great Qin!"

"Why bother the king with the advice of Marquis Wenxin!"

Xiong Qi bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, all the ministers say that I am inferior to Marquis Wenxin."

"I asked myself, there is indeed a slight gap between me and Marquis Wenxin."

"However, Marquis Wenxin has been the prime minister for many years, and I am still unfamiliar with him when he comes to the prime minister's position."

"Please, Your Majesty, give me a certain amount of time. I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations!"

Ying Zheng helped Xiong Qi up with both hands and comforted him in a gentle voice: "Why is my dear, why are you like this?"

"I believe in the power of Xiong Xiang."

"It's just that this year's war is not part of the imperial court's plan. Even I have never thought that our great Qin can seize the Wei territory. It is reasonable for my love to make some omissions. There is no need to blame yourself."

"I have no intention of welcoming Marquis Wenxin back to the court, so Mr. Xiong can rest assured!"

Hearing this, Xiong Qi and Ying Xi who were not far away finally felt relieved.

They still don't know whether Li Si's goal can be achieved.

But judging from Ying Zheng's current attitude, Xiong Qi and Ying Xi's goals have been achieved!

Xiong Qi said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust!"

Li Si said repeatedly: "Your Majesty..."

Before Li Si could finish his words, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind, please don't give me any more advice!"

Li Si reluctantly handed over his hand: "Wei!"

All the monarchs and ministers returned to the imperial study and continued the unfinished topic.

But the incident of officials buckling the palace outside Xianyang Palace shocked the entire Qin Dynasty, and even the entire world!

"Today, our Qin Dynasty has a wise king living in the palace and a great general fighting in the field. If we can get the help of the great sage Wenxinhou to return to the court, our Qin Dynasty will surely prosper! Hurry, hurry! Get the bamboo slips!"

A Da Qin official who was full of respect for Lu Buwei grabbed a knife and pen and wrote quickly.

"Hahaha~ How can such a great talent as Marquis Wenxin be trapped in the mountains? This world is the stage for Marquis Wenxin to succeed! I will congratulate Marquis Wenxin!"

Many of Lu Buwei's former patrons gathered together to have a drink and compose a memorial together.

"If the King of Qin really settles the old grudges with Marquis Wenxin, it will be very detrimental to our country. We will add another fire to Marquis Wenxin, so that everything must be counterattacked!"

Travelers from Zhao and Chu began to frequently move around the territory of Qin, inducing more officials to write memorials.

Lu Buwei's memorial whizzed past like an arrow piercing the clouds, attracting thousands of bamboo slips and bamboo slips to flock to Xianyang.

For a moment, Da Qin Zhugui!

Six days later.

Ying Zheng's workload did not decrease with the end of the wax festival, but instead increased.

"Bang!" Another basket of bamboo slips fell on the floor of the imperial study room.

Su Jiao glanced at the bamboo baskets that were almost filling the imperial study room, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want to review it first?"

Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "Is it possible that there are still memorials that have not been sent in?"

Su Jiao nodded straightforwardly: "There are more than twenty baskets outside."

"There's no room for it in the royal study."

"So I advise the king to review it first. After the king has finished the review, I will lead the people to continue moving."

The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched slightly.

Although each bamboo slip can only hold twenty or thirty characters, each bamboo slip can only hold a few thousand characters.

But so many bamboo slips must contain millions of words.

You let everyone review it first, and then continue to move after everyone has finished reviewing it?

Do you think I can finish reading so many memorials tonight?

As expected, it was the soldiers brought out by Brother Wang, who were as naive as Brother Wang!

Ying Zheng said coldly: "Let all the ministers on duty read the memorial."

"Any memorial that is given to Marquis Wenxin as a remonstrance does not need to be presented in front of me!"

Ying Zheng never let others help him review memorials.

In other words, Ying Zheng would rather work harder himself than delegate the right to review memorials to anyone.

But this time, Ying Zheng made an exception.

Otherwise, no matter how diligent Ying Zheng is, he will not be able to work normally!

Su Jiao glanced at Ying Zheng in surprise. Seeing that Ying Zheng had no intention of changing his mind, he handed over his hand: "Wei!"

Turning around and taking a seat, Ying Zheng suppressed his annoyance and took the memorials selected by the minister and reviewed them carefully.

But not long after, Pi Guan quickly stepped inside and whispered in Ying Zheng's ear: "Your Majesty, a large number of rangers are gathering towards Luoyi."

"According to the estimates of the candidates, there are at least 8,000 people."

"In addition, the Chaoge County Magistrate has reported that a large number of merchant ships have recently moved westward with armor."

"According to the investigation by the waiters, most of the armor mentioned by Chaoge County Magistrate was unloaded in Luoyi, and the specific number is unknown."

Ying Zheng's pupils suddenly condensed, and he continued to ask: "How is the investigation of the situation in Marquis Wenxin's Mansion going?"

Pi Guan responded immediately: "There are currently more than 6,000 guests and more than 40,000 servants in Wen Xinhou's mansion."

"Guests from various countries come and go all the time. Travelers from Yan, Zhao, Qi, and Chu all stay at Wenxinhou's mansion."

As he spoke, Pi Guan felt helpless.

Today, the trend of raising scholars is prevalent.

Lu Buwei's number of followers has long surpassed that of the Four Gentlemen of the Warring States Period, becoming the largest in the world.

Nowadays, the number of guests in Lu Buwei's house is already smaller than when he was in power.

More than 40,000 servants are not too many.

If there are not so many servants, how can we take care of so many customers?

However, there are more than 6,000 guests, at least 8,000 rangers coming to surrender, more than 40,000 servants, and a large number of armors and weapons being unloaded in Luoyi...

In an instant, Lu Buwei could have more than 50,000 elite soldiers at his disposal!

Ying Zheng was shocked and asked angrily: "What exactly does he want?"
