Chapter 44 Section 2 Xianyang, the capital of Qin State

Compared with the plentiful rain and dew in the harem of South Korea, the harem of Qin State continued to be dry.But it's no wonder that Yingzheng has been troubled by state affairs recently, so he has no intention of having sex.The first time Yingzheng heard about the alliance of the four kingdoms was the urgent report from Li Si sent back from South Korea.Afterwards, a series of spies about the alliance of the four countries were continuously sent back to Xianyang by the intelligence personnel ambushing in the four countries. In the face of this crisis, Ying Zheng felt worried, but couldn't hide his excitement.Over the years, most of his energy has been devoted to the interior of Qin State to consolidate his power and throne, and he rarely shows his edge in international affairs.This four-nation alliance is the first time he has faced such a tense and complicated international situation since he took office.At the same time, he also saw that this was a great opportunity for the world to appreciate his demeanor as the number one king today.

In the past few days of the court discussion, the ministers were positive rather than positive, and made a lot of ideas in one go, but after all, they couldn't get the point.Because of this, Ying Zheng missed Li Silai very much.Some people, when he leaves you, you suddenly realize his importance.This is the reason why the so-called Xiaobie is better than newly married.And some people, when he leaves you, he suddenly realizes the importance of you, so the prodigal son turns back.However, the so-called prodigal son will not be exchanged for money when he returns, but Yi Ren has already regarded him with a smile.What "it's easy to find a priceless treasure, but rare to have a lover" is basically bullshit.

Having said that, Ying Zheng was alone in the deep palace, thinking hard about countermeasures, when he raised his head, his eyes suddenly brightened, ha, Li Si is here, and the widow's Tingwei is here. After Li Si received the edict, he set off immediately and returned to Qin State as quickly as possible before entering the border, where Lang Zhong Ling Wang Wan had already caught him.Wang Wan was ordered by Ying Zheng to come to meet Li Si and express condolences for his escape. By the way, he also wanted to give Li Si a briefing on the situation on the way to prepare for him to meet Ying Zheng in advance, lest he just come back and still Can't figure out the situation.Although Ying Zheng is not a meteorologist, he knows which cloud can rain.

With regard to the intelligence materials of this joint vertical, the truck was full.Wang Wan didn't bother, and began to report to Li Si one by one.The relationship between Li Si and Wang Wan can be called dead iron. In the past, the two had been under Cai Ze's subordinates and suffered anger together, and now they have climbed to the highest level of Qin State's political arena together.Li Si was also very embarrassed to use the dignified Lang Zhongling as a secretary, so he said with a smile, "Brother Wang, you don't have to work so hard. Just pick the most important ones."

Wang Wan smiled wryly, "It's been streamlined, otherwise it would be more than one car!" Li Sidao, "How much do you know about Yao Jia?" Wang Wan said, "Yao Jia, from Daliang." Li Si raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "Da Liang Ren?" Wang Wan said, "What's wrong?" Li Si calmed down and said, "It's nothing. Brother Wang, please continue." Wang Wan continued, "Yao Jia's father was a gatekeeper in Daliang. Yao Jia was a thief in Daliang when he was young, and now he is a minister in Zhao. That's all we know so far."

Li Si nodded thoughtfully, and Wang Wan was about to continue reporting, but Li Si waved his hand and said, "I dare not bother Brother Wang anymore. I know about Yao Jia, so I don't care about the rest." Wang Wan looked at Li Si and saw the light flashing in his eyes and a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.As soon as Wang Wan saw Li Si's expression, he knew that he must have come up with some clever plan again, but Li Si was very coquettish, asking him was useless, and he would never reveal a word until the last moment. of.Wang Wan stared at Li Si fiercely, and Li Si was also very uncomfortable being watched by Wang Wan, so he forced a smile, "Brother Wang, what are you looking at?"

Wang Wan sighed, "You bastard, your head is not bigger than mine." Li Si and Wang Wan talked without any scruples, and laughed loudly, "Somewhere must be bigger than you, haha." Wang Wan yelled, "If you don't believe me, how about we compare." Ever since, the two of them didn't talk about official business, they just chewed extravagantly, and with the spring scenery everywhere, singing and singing, the journey was quite pleasant. As soon as Li Si arrived in Xianyang, he didn't bother to go home. He came to Xianyang Palace first. When he saw Ying Zheng, he fell to the ground and apologized for his failure in the mission.Yingzheng hurriedly helped him up, and said, "What is the crime of Ting Wei? The four countries united, and there was an extraordinary change. During the court discussion, all the officials couldn't think it was right. The widow called Ting Wei urgently for this reason. I don't know Ting Wei Is there a good strategy?"

Li Sidao, "About the alliance of the four kingdoms, what did the Guowei say?" Ying Zheng shook his head.Since Wei Liao became the captain of the state, he has kept a low profile and devoted himself to writing books, never expressing opinions on current affairs.Ying Zheng also let it go and did not force it.Letting Wei Liao serve as the captain of the country was originally to enshrine him as a Bodhisattva and let him play a little role in army building, but he was never expected to make achievements in diplomacy.Therefore, Ying Zheng never informed Wei Weiliao of the four kingdoms' unification.

Li Sidao, "You can call the captain of the country." Ying Zheng said, "Manchurian civil and military, why did the Tingwei call the Guowei alone?" Li Si smiled and said, "Your Majesty will know when the time comes." Ying Zheng then sent people to summon Wei Liao, and said, "Please Ting Wei, please advise me." Li Sidao, "The feudal lords have been at odds for a long time. The sudden alliance this time is certainly due to South Korea's incitement and incitement to the four countries in order to save itself. However, the key to the success of the alliance is one person, Yao Jia. Yao Jiazhi lobbied that He Zong would definitely not succeed. I thought that if we want to destroy He Zong, we should focus on Yao Jia."

Ying Zheng said, "Could it be that Tingwei meant..." Li Si figured out Ying Zheng's tone and knew that he thought he was implying the assassination of Yao Jia, so he shook his head and said, "Now that Yao Jia is in charge of the alliance, the surrounding must be heavily guarded, and an assassination may not be feasible." Ying Zheng sighed, "Back then, the Six Kingdoms had Su and Qin allied together, while my Qin State had Zhang Yi's continuous tyranny, making Su Qin's efforts in vain. Yao Jia, today's Su Qin is also, but where is my Great Qin's Zhang Yi today?"

Li Sidao, "Your Majesty, why don't you summon Yao Jia and make him work for Qin?" Yingzheng was a little displeased, Li Si could only come up with such a bad idea, so he said coldly, "Yao Jiazheng has his ambitions in the Six Kingdoms, how could he be summoned?" Li Si was not in a hurry, so he told Ying Zheng a story first.Back then, South Korea’s treasury was empty and money was urgently needed.How to do it?So I came up with the idea of ​​human trafficking.There are beauties in South Korea, and the world is so beautiful that all the kings are coveted, eager to take it for themselves.South Korea clearly marked the price to the world, three thousand gold.Such a high price made the monarchs of the Six Kingdoms discouraged, and only King Qin Zhao could afford the price, and finally bought the beauty.Worth three thousand gold, you can imagine his beauty.People today are used to calling their daughter's family a daughter, and that's where it comes from. Li Si went on to say that Su Qin, Zhang Yi, and Yao Jia are all free-spirited, talented but not virtuous, and forget righteousness for profit.Others looked at Yao Jia and thought that he was powerful and influential to the princes, and he was also a dignitary for a while.Li Si looked at Yao Jia, but he put a straw bid on his head, waiting for a price to buy.It's like that Korean beauty, whoever pays the highest price gets it, and it's justified.Just ask, in today's world, who else can afford a higher price than Qin Guo?Besides, Yao Jia was once a thief in Daliang, so it is obvious that he was greedy for profit.Anyone with a little integrity would rather die than be a thief.Therefore, as long as the king can pay his full capital, why would Yao Jia not come? Ying Zheng regained his spirits and said, continue. Li Si said again, and Rong Chen finished telling the story of the Korean beauty first.Then South Korea sold the beauty, and indeed got three thousand gold.Later, King Zhao threatened to attack South Korea, so South Korea had to obediently offer the three thousand gold intact to please Qin.In other words, Qin didn't spend any penny, and earned a peerless beauty for nothing.Today, the king summoned Yao Jia to come to Qin, and the benefit is far more than a moment.The so-called untie the bell still needs the person who tied the bell. If Yao Jia is sent as an envoy to the four countries for Qin, then the unity can be broken; What the king spent on Yao Jia. Ying Zheng said, "Tingwei's words are good, but I'm still worried that Yao Jia won't come." Li Si said, "That's why I invite the Captain to come here." After speaking, Li Si clapped his hands and said, "Say Captain, and the Captain will be there." Sure enough, Wei Liao walked in with his stick.Li Si laughed loudly and said, "Another Daliang man has come." He asked Wei Liao, "Does the Guowei know Yao Jia?" Wei Liao didn't understand what he meant, but he still replied, "This old man is from the same hometown as Yao Jia, so they are old acquaintances." Li Si briefly introduced the current situation, and said, "Since this is an old acquaintance, I asked the Guowei to revise the book and call Yao Jia to come to Qin and use it for the King of Qin." Wei Liao hesitated and said, "Yao Jiasu made a promise of Su Qin, and now he is fulfilling his aspirations in the four kingdoms, and his spirits are flying high. Even if the old man invites you with a letter, he will definitely not come to Qin." Li Si smiled and said, "Guo Wei, go ahead and revise the book. As long as this is the case, even if Yao Jia refuses to come to Qin, I'm afraid he has to come." Yingzheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and praised the festival.
