Chapter 72 Chapter 1

Let's talk about Han Fei's entry into the Qin Dynasty, the ministers of the Qin State were shocked by his illustrious name, and knew that Yingzheng appreciated him very much, so they all made efforts to make friends, and they were lucky to know each other.At that time, Qin State ruled all over the world, and South Korea was the weakest among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period. When they were socializing, the ministers of Qin State could not help but have the mentality of a big country, intentionally or unintentionally belittling Han Fei, a down-and-out son from South Korea.At the banquet, the officials took turns to question Han Fei, trying to humiliate him.However, Han Fei's name is a waste!He stopped talking a lot and refuted the officials one by one.Later, the banquet was reduced to a stage for Han Fei to perform alone. Even if he talked about the changes of the past and the present, and the spells of the monarch and his ministers, the officials could only listen to them, and could not deal with them.

The ministers wanted to humiliate Han Fei, but turned to humiliate themselves, and their intentions were unreasonable. In order to save Qin's face, the ministers began to use South Korea's weakness as an issue, thinking that Qin's destruction of South Korea was only a matter of turning back.Han Fei's eyes were furious, and he tried to preserve Han's benefits. When talking, he looked left and right, as if he wanted to choose someone and devour him.The officials knew that they could not break it with their tongues, but changed their appearance and awe. As a loyal reader of Han Fei, Ying Zheng couldn't help thinking about the rest of Han Fei's works day and night after reading "Lonely Wrath" and "Five Worms".However, Han Fei entered Qin Dynasty by bicycle, apparently never bringing his works with him.Ying Zheng then ordered Li Si to search for it.Fortunately, Han Fei's works were widely circulated in South Korea. Soon, Li Si collected more than 30 works of Han Fei from Han Xiang Zhang Rang and Han Fei's disciples, and presented them to Yingzheng one by one.Ying Zheng read it, and from being intoxicated to being shocked, he felt more and more that Han Feizhi was talented and insightful, and the more he felt that the war was worth fighting.

After reading more than 30 articles, Ying Zheng sighed, "People like Han Fei, the world cannot have one, and there cannot be two." What a feeling!What a compliment! After living for a long time, Yingzheng called Han Fei again to show his book and ask questions.Han Fei was shocked when he saw the books. He didn't bring the books to Qin, but Ying Zheng got them after all.Han Fei was in a state of confusion, and he only answered Ying Zheng's questions perfunctorily.His negative attitude seemed to be telling Ying Zheng: You can get my people, but you will never get my heart.

Yingzheng asked about South Korea, but Han Fei pretended not to know.Ying Zheng didn't get annoyed even when he bumped into two soft nails, and said with a smile, "My son is a Han clan, and I can't betray my homeland, and I can't force it. My son came to Qin for a day, and many officials have made friends, so you should know about it in Qin." Feelings, I hope the young master can teach the widows." Han Fei resigned, "I am the envoy of South Korea, how dare I prescribe the internal affairs of the big country." Yingzheng insisted on asking. Han Fei fought in his heart.Most of his books have fallen into the hands of Ying Zheng, and his use value for Ying Zheng has been greatly reduced.If he still wants to make profits for South Korea, he must let go of his arrogance and start to conform to Yingzheng.Right now, Ying Zheng is asking about Qin's internal affairs, which is giving him a chance.The point is, can he seize such an opportunity?For him, the strategy he is about to dedicate to Yingzheng must seem to be for the sake of Qin, but in fact it can weaken Qin.To do this, the difficulty is self-evident.However, besides doing what he knows he can't do, does he have any other choice?

Han Fei made up his mind, and said, "I have little knowledge. Although I have something to say, I am afraid that your Majesty will not be able to use it, and it will be a crime." Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Young master, it doesn't matter what you say." Han Fei said, "I know very little about Qin. However, in my opinion, there is one person who must be killed." Ying Zheng said, "Who is it?" Han Fei paused and said, "Please kill Zheng Guo!" Ying Zheng was greatly surprised when he heard this.Zheng Guo?He is a spy sent by you from South Korea. He is tired of Qin's plan.Even if you say you're going to kill him, I know you guys used to be together.Even so, Ying Zheng asked patiently, "Why did you kill Zheng Guo?"

Han Fei said, "Zheng Guowei is between Qin and should be punished according to the law, so why ask more questions." Yingzheng smiled and said, "Young Master, you don't know something. It's my wish not to kill Zheng Guo, but to make him a crime and a meritorious service." Han Fei's face remained unchanged, and he said coldly, "If a person is guilty, he cannot be saved. To save sinners, the reason why the law is defeated. If the law is defeated, the country will be in chaos. Please think twice." Yingzheng said, "It's only for a short while to kill Zheng Guo, so what's the benefit! The widow pardons him, so that the continued repair of the Guanzhong Canal will be for the benefit of all generations of Qin. It's not because he wants to mess with the laws and regulations, so that he can do it."

Han Fei exclaimed, "Your Majesty is so wrong." Ying Zheng's expression changed. No one had ever dared to criticize him in person like this!Han Fei didn't wait for Yingzheng to explode, and continued, "What your Majesty calls convenience is inconvenience; what I call killing Zheng Guo is convenience. Guan Zhong said that whoever is pardoned will do little benefit but great harm. The Holy King does not forgive. Your Majesty pardons Zheng Guo because he abandons the common law and follows his own wishes. Therefore, everyone in Qin knows that there are two kinds of laws, and your Majesty's private wishes are the most important. If your Majesty's private wishes are carried out, all the ministers will figure them out on their own. Your Majesty wishes to abandon the law and ignore it. Therefore, the law and prohibition cannot be established, and the way of governing the country is abolished."

Ying Zheng said, "The widow pardoned Zheng Guo, once he said it, there is no reason to take it back. How can he win the trust of his subjects? The son's proposal, I forgive you, can't listen." Han Fei said indignantly, "Since Shang Yang, since the Qin Dynasty, the sixth generation has surpassed the world, and the law is solid. Those who make meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and those who are guilty must be punished. There is a saying in the minister's book: the Lord is more capable than the law. Those who matter can die. Your Majesty thinks about it." Han Fei's fierce attitude surprised Ying Zheng.He stared at Han Fei's face flushed with excitement, and he couldn't help but think, I can read his book, and I hope I can read his heart.Zheng Guo's canals have not been completed, so they can't be killed anyway.Is Han Fei so insisting on killing Zheng Guo to win my trust, or is he trying to make the Guanzhong Canal fall by the wayside and weaken Daqin? "If you are honest, you will be rewarded even if you are humble; if you are sincere, you will be punished even if you are close." This is indeed the thought that Han Fei repeatedly emphasized in his book.However, is Han Fei's motivation really as simple as sticking to his academic position?
