Chapter 63 The first dark battle

The next day, Qin Wang Yingzheng summoned Li Si as scheduled.What an honor it is for an ordinary Lang Guan to be received by the monarch alone, and in the main hall of Xianyang Palace.In this world, Cinderella's fairy tales happen from time to time, but Cinderella's stories are rarely heard.In the eyes of many colleagues, Li Si is undoubtedly a gray guy who hit the big luck. With savage dreams and bloodthirsty desires, Li Si came to Xianyang Palace.This meeting is different from yesterday's meeting in Lanchi Palace. This is a formal meeting, and it is a meeting to solve puzzles.Li Si knew the mystery, but Ying Zheng knew the answer.

In the empty and solemn main hall, there were only Li Si and Ying Zheng.Every brick, every tile, every pillar and every beam here represents the dignity and power of Qin.In such a solemn place, people will unconsciously be in awe. With a different place and a different time, Li Si's mood is also very different from yesterday.Yesterday, he was still poor and white. He was fighting desperately with the determination to die. At that time, he only felt his blood boiling, but he didn't feel afraid.Today, the blood has cooled down, he already has hope, and has the thoughts of gain and loss, and only then does he feel the fear.However, what he wanted to say and what he could say had been said in one breath yesterday.But there are some words that are equally lethal, but they have not been said in time, or they cannot be said, and they dare not say them.He has already played all the cards in his hand, and all he can do now is to watch Ying Zheng play his cards.

With a cold face, Ying Zheng said without any greetings, "I heard that Mr. was once a minister of the country." His tone was flat and natural, and he was simply stating a fact without any inclination or emotion. It was only then that Li Si realized why Ying Zheng didn't even make a decision on the spot to give him a half-time job when they had such a speculative conversation yesterday.It turned out that Ying Zheng went to investigate his details last night.Li Si was both happy and worried.The good news is that Ying Zheng will investigate him only if he wants to use him.What is worrying is that the relationship with Lu Buwei used to be a boost to his career, but now it is likely to become a hindrance to his career.He murmured in his heart, how much did Ying Zheng know about him?Should he choose to confess and be lenient, or wait to resist and be strict?If Lu Buwei is compared to his old love, Ying Zheng is compared to his new love.In order to win the heart of his new love, he must completely draw a line with his old love, and he must not have any ties to each other.Yingzheng, Yingzheng, I only have you in my heart without him, please believe that my affection is not fake, my eyes are for you, my eyebrows are for you, never for him.

Li Sidao: "I have been a prime minister for more than two years, and I think about it day and night, for the great Qin and not for the prime minister. Now I am a Lang official, holding the whip and shouting for my king, and my wish is fulfilled." Ying Zheng said: "I'm still young, and the affairs of the country depend entirely on the Prime Minister. Sir, if you give up your people for the Prime Minister, you can be regarded as serving the country." Ying Zheng's words are obviously a lie, and every sentence is full of hidden wit. Explore.Hemingway's iceberg theory is perfectly reflected here.Can Ying Zheng tolerate Lu Buwei forever?Li Si never believed it.It's not the time for Ying Zheng to fight back yet, so he can only wait patiently, pampering and submissive to Lu Buwei, and will never easily reveal his intention to deal with Lu Buwei.Li Si knew that he had to be very careful when talking to Ying Zheng.In front of Ying Zheng, not only can't force Lu Buwei, but even Shunjian can't.The best thing is to pretend to be ignorant of what Ying Zheng wants to do with Lu Buwei.Once this layer of window paper is pierced and the ulterior secret in Ying Zheng's heart is exposed, Ying Zheng will probably kill him to silence him.

Li Sidao: "The prime minister is the prime minister, and the king is the state. To serve the king is to serve the country." Yingzheng said again: "I heard that Lai Ai was also a minister of the state. Do you know this person?" Li Si almost broke out in a cold sweat.How does he know everything?It seems that by Lu Buwei's side, someone Ying Zheng must be ambushing.This child is indeed not simple. Li Si didn't dare to hide it, and said: "When I was a family member with Lai Ai, I was quite close. After my king bestowed wealth on Lai Ai, I have very little contact with Lai Ai."

Yingzheng's face softened a little, and he said, "I heard that Lai Ai had tried to win over Mr. several times, but he declined all of them politely. May I ask why?" "Even though I'm not talented, I know that Lai Ai's success today is all thanks to my king's gift. I love wealth and honor, and only my king can give it to me." Ying Zheng showed satisfaction, and said: "I met yesterday, and I have learned a lot. The strategy of divorce is taught by my husband, and I hope that I will do it for me. I would like to worship you as a long history." Li Sibai said: "Thank you for my king's mistaken belief, I will do my best to live up to my king." He also said: "I have something to ask, and I hope my king will allow it."

"What is it?" "I am alone in Xianyang, and my wife and children are still in Shangcai, Chu State. I have not seen each other for three years. I want to bring my wife and children to Xianyang. From now on, I will be from Qin, not from Chu." King Qin was overjoyed and readily agreed. Li Si has been a housekeeper for more than two years, and he has been a Lang Guan for more than half a year. He has never brought his wife and children to Xianyang. In Ying Zheng's view, this shows that Li Si still has a speculative mentality. Qin.Until now, after Yingzheng personally sealed him as a long history, he took over his wife and children, which showed that he would really settle down in Xianyang, and that he wanted to serve Yingzheng wholeheartedly, so he took over his wife and children. , not only to enjoy the family relationship, but also to take them as hostages so that Ying Zheng can feel at ease.Ying Zheng was naturally overjoyed.
