Chapter 146 Section 1: The Prophecy of Lai Ai's General Rebellion

The calendar turned to the ninth year of Yingzheng.In the new year, some people are one year older, while others are one year older.Just after celebrating the new year, the attention of Qin's political circle, and even the entire international community, began to focus on the coronation ceremony of Ying Zheng to be held in April. Airplanes are most dangerous when they take off and land, and political situations are most dangerous when power is transferred.If the foundation of the new power is not stable, and the old power is not willing to retire, a power turmoil is inevitable.In the current state of Qin's political arena, both of these factors are present.Whether Yingzheng's coronation ceremony can be held smoothly, and whether the royal power can be safely handed over to Yingzheng, everyone is looking forward to it... Some are looking forward to Yingzheng, and some are looking forward to Lu Buwei or Lai.毐.

Li Si knew both Lu Buwei and Lao Ai very well.Faced with Yingzheng's imminent pro-government, Lu Buwei, who is used to being in power, will naturally resist, but on the other hand, he is quite relieved about it.He helped Yingzheng and his son to the throne of King Qin successively. If he were an artist, Yingzheng would be his most proud piece of work. Yingzheng proclaimed the final completion of this work, and he would only be optimistic about its success. He will not be a hindrance, and Lu Buwei did not dare to rebel in his heyday, but now that he is old and depressed, there is no reason to rebel.

Lai Ai is different from Lu Buwei.Lao Ai was twenty-eight years old at the time, which was far earlier than our current statutory retirement age, not to mention that there was no such thing as retirement at that time.His good days are still long, and he will not be willing to give up the highest power just like this; his adulterous relationship with the queen mother is destined to be inseparable from him and Ying Zheng.Li Si decided: Lai Ai would not wait to be punished.Lai Ai must be rebelled, only in the morning and evening. Li Si and Lai Ai are familiar with each other, but between Ying Zheng and Lai Ai, he is undoubtedly on Ying Zheng's side.He had to warn Ying Zheng to be careful of Lai Ai.But the situation at that time was that Lao Ai and the Queen Mother were as close as conjoined twins, and suing Lao Ai was undoubtedly tantamount to suing the Queen Mother.How to deal with human flesh and blood has always been a major problem for ministers under the imperial power system.Anyone who has been an executive in a family business should feel the same way.Therefore, Li Si had to be cautious when he wanted to sue the Queen Mother.He needs to find a spokesperson who can help deliver the message without committing a taboo.

Speaking of which, Li Si's face is great. The spokesperson he invited is not a football star, nor a movie star or a singer, but God!In the early spring of February of this year, comets appeared in the sky again.Comet, commonly known as broom star.The comet this time is even weirder than the comet two years ago. Its broom tail is so long that it splits the sky into two halves.Such an abnormal celestial appearance caused panic among the people, and Yingzheng was also greatly disturbed, so he called the Taishi to ask about the good and bad.Taishi Zhanzhi said: "There should be a mutiny in the country."

Ying Zheng asked Li Si again.Li Sidao: "The way of heaven is mysterious and far away, and people can't know it. Therefore, it can be turned into the sky to show people good or bad. Don't be careless. As Tai Shi said, it is better to believe what is there than not to believe what is not." In Qin State, only Lu Buwei and Lao Ai were capable of mutiny.In Ying Zheng's view, the probability of Lu Buwei's mutiny is even greater than that of Lao Ai.Yingzheng murmured, "Military mutiny? Lu family? Lao family?" Li Sidao: "In my opinion, Xiangguo has no two minds, so there is nothing to worry about."

Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si, and said, "Keqing once sacrificed others for the Prime Minister, but you should not justify your personal relationship because of this." Li Sidao: "I don't dare. Xiangguo has the merit of supporting my king. In the past, my king was young and couldn't see things. Qin's government was in the hands of Xiangguo alone. If Xiangguo wanted to take Qin and replace him, this is the time." Yes. However, Xiangguo has been loyal to the Qin family for many years, and has not changed to the way of ministers. King Zuowu internally controls the six countries externally, and he has no rebellious heart."

Ying Zheng said: "In the opinion of the guest, the one who wants to make a mutiny is Lai Ai?" Li Sidao: "Yes." Yingzheng laughed and said: "Lao Ai, eunuch, can't have an offspring. If you go through a mutiny and take the widow to replace him, you can only end up with the whole body, and you can't pass it on to your descendants. Why? Since ancient times, the world has never There is no reason for eunuchs to be the masters. Lai Ai's behavior and behavior are all restricted by the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother has no intention of plotting me, so what can Lai Ai do! Lai Ai will be a mutiny, and I can't believe it."

Some words, if not said at the time, will become more and more difficult to say in the future.Li Siming knew that the eunuch, Lai Ai, was a fake and shoddy product, but he didn't dare to tell Yingzheng the truth.Li Si then said: "Nevertheless, Lai Ai's power is too heavy, and most of the officials in the court and central government are attached to her sects, forming partisans, and advancing and retreating together. My king should cut it off as soon as possible, so as not to lose the tail and cause trouble later." Yingzheng said seriously: "I don't know what Ke Qing said. I have been wanting to abolish Lai Ai for a long time, but because of the empress dowager, I can't do it lightly. It's not too late for the widow to add a crown and sword to govern the country."

Li Si said anxiously: "I'm afraid there will be changes later, I hope my king will figure it out sooner." Ying Zheng said with a smile: "The eunuch Lai Ai, the dog raised by the Queen Mother is not enough to cause trouble. If a widow wants to get rid of it, it is as easy as flipping the palm of your hand. You only need to call him into the palace to see him, and then capture him. This is a special thing for a strong man. Ke Qing Why worry about it!" Li Si left without a word.
