What he said was exactly what Lu Buwei was worried about.

This is also Lu Buwei's purpose in rushing to gather everyone.

The key to solving this problem is to eradicate Confucianism.

Sima Kong stood up and said darkly, "Actually, it's not difficult to eradicate Confucianism. One assassin is enough."

Send assassins into the palace to assassinate the sages of Confucianism.

Although this is not glorious, it is also an effective method.

"Lord Sima, you are right."

"That's a good way."

Hearing Sima Kong's suggestion, several guest officials immediately agreed with it.

However, Li Si shook his head and said, "From the students' point of view, Master Sima's suggestion is the next best thing to do."

"The royal palace is heavily guarded. Once the assassination fails, the entire Xiangfu will be implicated. Moreover, the person who dares to assassinate Xun Qing has hardly been born yet."

Xun Qing is Xun Kuang.

He is Li Si's mentor, which is Li Si's respectful name for him.

Lu Buwei nodded to Li Si, agreeing with his statement, and told Sima Kong, "Assassination is really the next strategy, we should think of other ways."

·······"Welcome to Chenlu? Feilu? Book Friends Group, group chat number: 184903393"······

"Yes, Lord Xiangguo."

Simakong replied respectfully, pondered for a while, and then said again, "The empress dowager has always been friendly with the prime minister's house, and the foreign relatives under her control should not want Confucianism to grow in Xianyang."

The empress dowager he was talking about was Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji is the Empress Dowager of Qin State, the birth mother of Ying Zheng, her mother is honored all over the world, and her status is noble. Moreover, she controls the power of Zhao State's foreign relatives, and she is definitely one of the top forces in Qin State.

"Master Xiangguo, why don't you enter the palace and invite your empress to join forces against Confucianism?"

Simakong looked at Lu Buwei respectfully, and said the above suggestion.

Hearing Sima Kong's suggestion, the rest of the disciples nodded in agreement: "Master Sima's plan is very good. If we can get the help of the Empress Dowager, it will be much easier to deal with Confucianism."

boom!

Lu Buwei frowned immediately, slapped the table, and shouted: "Don't bring this up again!"

The name Zhao Ji has always been a taboo for Lu Buwei.

When Lu Buwei was a businessman, this Zhao Ji was his concubine.

Later, he gave Zhao Ji to King Zhuang Xiang, Ying Zheng's father, and after Zhao Ji became the King of Qin, Lu Buwei also benefited a lot until he became the prime minister of Qin.

However, in recent years, Lu Buwei has been running the prime minister's mansion, and Zhao Ji has been running the power of relatives. Everyone has started their own cooking, and the relationship has become delicate.

In the following time, several disciples offered advice and suggestions, and proposed one after another, ways to deal with Confucianism, but most of them were not feasible, Lu Buwei looked displeased, and directly asked them to retreat.

In the empty hall, only Lu Buwei was left, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he muttered alone.

For a long time.

"It seems that we can only go to see her."

Lu Buwei has the handle, which is in the hands of Zhao Ji.

Chapter Seventeen: Winning the Government, Conditions (1/3)

Xianyang Palace.

Inside the grand palace, there are twelve huge dragon pillars, divided into two rows, with six pillars in each row, supporting the magnificent palace.

Ying Zheng sat on the throne, did not review the memorial, but sat quietly, as if waiting for someone.

"Your Majesty, all the sages of Confucianism have entered the palace and are about to arrive at the main hall."

An old eunuch with a fair complexion suddenly walked into the hall and reported to Ying Zheng respectfully.

"very good!"

A gleam of joy appeared on Ying Zheng's face, he stood up from the throne, and walked towards the entrance of the main hall. A group of court ladies and eunuchs followed him respectfully, like stars holding the moon.

Just as he walked to the entrance of the main hall, Wang Jian's tall and burly figure appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes.

And beside Wang Jian, there were four Confucian scholars, old and young, all of whom were "five-eight-seven" with extraordinary demeanor, which immediately caught Ying Zheng's eyes.

"Wang Jian, Mr. Changping, see Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "You two lovers, please forgive me."

"Thank you king."

Wang Jian and Lord Changping got up at the same time and thanked each other.

Beside him, Han Chen was looking at Ying Zheng.

This Yingzheng wears a crown and a robe, with a majestic face, with a little immaturity, which is covered by strings of jade beads, making him look noble and mysterious.

As the King of Qin, he was able to greet Han Chen in person, which shows the importance he attaches to Confucianism.

Looking at Ying Zheng in front of him, Han Chen cupped his hands slightly, "Confucianism, Han Chen."

His behavior is very decent, full of Confucian demeanor, neither humble nor overbearing.

Ying Zheng nodded and smiled, and said, "I've heard of Mr.'s name a long time ago, and when I saw you today, I'm sure you have an extraordinary bearing."

He saw that Han Chen was young and almost the same as himself, but he was dressed in white clothes, refined and graceful, elegant like a fairy, with a pair of star eyes as deep as the sea, shining with the brilliance of wisdom, so he knew that this person was extraordinary.

"Xun Kuang, I have met King Qin."

Xun Kuang next to Han Chen, with a smile on his face, bowed his hands to King Qin.

"Fu Nian, Yan Lu, I have met King Qin."

The two Fu Nian standing behind Xun Kuang clasped their fists in salute at the same time, showing great respect to Ying Zheng.

Seeing everyone's behavior, Ying Zheng nodded and smiled, and said: "Everyone has come from a long distance, and the boat and car are exhausted. The widow has ordered the imperial dining room to prepare a sumptuous banquet to cleanse the dust for you!"

"Thank you king!"

Fu Nian cupped his fists again.

Then, everyone followed Ying Zheng's footsteps to the main hall where they had dinner.

In the spacious hall, banquets have already been prepared, delicacies from mountains and seas, all kinds of dishes, all tables are filled, the hall is full of aromas, accompanied by royal family and nobles, the scene is very luxurious.

Everyone sit down!

Facing the Confucianists, Yingzheng did not put on airs, and said in an easy-going manner: "I am busy with state affairs all day long, and have no time to teach the prince. The palace is in urgent need of famous teachers. You are today's celebrities, and you will be able to work in the future."

Yingzheng invited the Confucianists into the palace to teach the prince, and no one was surprised to mention this matter now.

Han Chen nodded, and said: "Confucianism has always taken teaching and educating people as its own responsibility. Since the king of Qin trusts Confucianism, he is willing to entrust his prince to him. Confucianism will not delay, and this matter is settled."

Ying Zheng nodded with a smile, looked at Han Chen and Xun Kuang, and said, "It's really a blessing for Qin to get help from all the sages, and I'm drafting an edict to bestow the post of Grand Tutor to you all."

The prince's teacher is Taifu.

Tai Tuo ranks among the three princes, and his status is quite honorable, and he can completely sit on an equal footing with Lu Buwei.

A banquet, going on very quickly, ended in half an hour!

"Mr. Han, there is an observatory in the palace of the widow, which is an excellent place to enjoy the moon. Can you watch it with me, sir?"

"Happy to accompany."

Hearing Ying Zheng's invitation, Han Chen nodded with a smile.

Han Chen knew very well in his heart that Ying Zheng had a lot to say during the banquet and couldn't say it face to face.

The so-called watching the stars and the moon is just an excuse.

Ying Zhengzheng's real intention was to get alone with Confucianism and discuss important confidential matters.

"Mr. Han, please!"

"King Qin, please!"

Han Chen and Ying Zheng made some concessions, and then smiled at the same time, tacitly, and walked out of the banquet hall.

Xun Kuang and Han Chen walked side by side, with Fu Nian and Yan Lu following closely behind.

Soon, everyone came to the observatory.

The observatory is surrounded by mountains and is located in a remote place. It is the best place to discuss major issues here.

"Your widow and all the sages, watch the moon and listen to the wind here, you wait and protect, don't let outsiders come and disturb..."

"promise!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's order, several accompanying eunuchs and maids respectfully agreed, and then all retreated and stood guard at each intersection.

They are all Ying Zheng's confidantes, and if there is any disturbance, they will report it immediately.

Here, only Ying Zheng, Han Chen and others are left.

Han Chen sat across from Ying Zheng, Xun Kuang sat next to Han Chen, Fu Nian and Yan Lu stood behind.

"There are no outsiders here, so the widow will no longer hide it."

Ying Zheng stood up, looked at Han Chen and Xun Kuang, and said directly: "The invitation to come this time is not just to teach the prince, but actually has other plans."

"Lu Buwei's power has been poured into the government and the public, and he has shown his heart of disobedience. If this jackal is not removed, the widow will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Lu Buwei's wolf ambition was fully revealed in the city gate incident in the morning.

Even if Ying Zheng didn't say anything, Han Chen knew.

"Besides Lu Buwei, other forces in Xianyang also make me worry."

Ying Zheng told all about his current situation, which shows that he is honest with Confucianism.

After a while, Yingzheng finished speaking, looked up at Han Chen, and said solemnly: "As long as you help me get out of the predicament, I am willing to immediately issue an order to make you a national teacher!"

The national teacher of Qin State, the existence that so many people dream of, as long as Han Chen nods, he can get it at his fingertips.
