Chapter 24 Section 3 Lu Buwei's Unspeakable Concealment

Zheng Guo is about to leave Xianyang, and Lu Buwei has approved his plan and ordered him to major in the water conservancy project he planned.This time, I don't know when I can come back.Zheng Guo and Li Si said good-bye to the wine, but they were both full of worries, they drank little and didn't talk much.Li Si didn't understand why Zheng Guo, who got his wish, looked so sad.He looks so ugly, he has no right to be sad. Although Li Si was grateful to Zheng Guo, he didn't think Zheng Guo was his friend.It is impossible for a person to make real friends after the age of 25.Li Si knows that he will never make friends again, he is not sad, and he no longer needs friends.Han Fei was his only friend.He always thought so, and he believed that Han Fei felt the same way as him.For a friend like Han Fei, if he could make one friend, it would be enough to make the whole world jealous. If he could make two friends, even the heavens would be jealous.

The carriage urged Zheng Guo to set off.Only then did Zheng Guo ask: "Brother Li is doing well with Xiangguo?" Li Si didn't want to reveal his true thoughts to Zheng Guo.He replied: "There are fish to eat, but there is no sex, so the wish is fulfilled." Zheng Guo laughed loudly and said: "Brother Li, why should you lie to me? Brother Li has great ambitions, how can Zheng Guo not know. Zheng Guo will bid farewell to the king, and hope that Brother Li will take care of you. Zheng Guo has nothing else to give, just a mere gift , I hope you will accept it with a smile." As he spoke, he handed over a heavy package.

Li Si unwrapped the package and took a look, but saw a piece of gold, which made him almost unable to open his eyes.Li Si asked anxiously: "How can this be done? Li Si can't afford it. Brother Zheng is traveling far away, and it's time to spend money. Li Si dare not accept such a generous gift." Li Si tried his best to refuse, but Zheng Guoqiang accepted it. Zheng Guodao: "Swords are given to martyrs, and red powder is given to beauties. Brother Li wants to make a name for himself and make contributions in the world. Although the money is small, it may be used to open the way for you. Fortunately, don't let it go. Zheng Guo is here to build water conservancy. There is no shortage The opportunity to gather money will not come within a few years, even if it is worth a thousand dollars, it is easy to get it."

Li Si asked in surprise, "Brother Zheng, is he going to embezzle and embezzle?" Zheng Guo smiled wryly and said: "Brother Li doesn't understand, Zheng Guo must be corrupt." After speaking, he bowed his hands to Li Si, got into the car and drove away. Li Si really didn't understand.He knew that certain generals who held military power, in order to dispel the king's suspicion of him, would deliberately corrupt and lawless, tarnish his image, give the king a handle, and calm the king's heart.But Zheng Guo is just a water conservancy engineer, so he shouldn't have the difficulty of being corrupt.Li Si couldn't figure it out.By the time he figured it out, it would be ten years later.

After Zheng Guo left Xianyang, Li Si felt more and more lonely.Given the size of Xianyang, he couldn't find anyone to talk to, of course, except for Lu Buwei. Although Lu Buwei can't afford to use Li Si, he often likes to invite Li Si to chat, but every time he hesitates to speak.Lu Buwei is a face-saving person, if he doesn't say anything, Li Si won't ask.Who let his future be in the hands of this bastard in front of him.The two of them just sat there, staring at each other, and it turned out to be like two Zen masters getting together: coming? coming. Then it was silent silence.Five hours later.

gone? gone. Sometimes, when Lu Buwei wanted to open up the conversation, he would add one more sentence at the end: What did you hear?Where do you see and go? Li Si replied to him: Come here after hearing what you hear, leave after seeing what you see.He didn't turn his head back after speaking, and walked away, making Lu Buwei rotten what he wanted to say in his heart.Li Si is so ruthless, whether your mother is a good friend or not, if you make me feel bad, why should I make you feel good.Under Li Si's repeated training and influence, Lu Buwei has become accustomed to and content with Li Si's madness.Crazy people make progress, but those who are blind do nothing.Therefore, although Lu Buwei hated Li Si very much, there was nothing he could do about him.

Li Si has a keen political sense.He can more or less guess some of Lu Buwei's unspeakable secrets.Because every time Lu Buwei chatted with Li Si, it was after he came back from the queen mother's palace.Lu Buwei would go to the Empress Dowager's Palace more than ten times a month, and every time he came back, he would be shaky even when he walked, his legs would be fluttering, as if he had done heavy physical work, and his mood was not good, he just kept moaning and sighing.Li Si deduced that what Lu Buwei wanted to tell him must have something to do with the queen dowager who lived deep in the palace.
