Chapter 168 The fourth quarter Li Si godson

In Li Si's view, Lu Buwei's loss of power is a foregone conclusion, and the era belonging to Lu Buwei has passed.Today's Lu Buwei has been thrown into the vortex of political struggle, and he is not willing to sink there, so he stretches out his hand in a panic, hoping to grab something to cling to.If you rush to help at this time, not only will you not be able to save him, but you will be dragged into the vortex by him and become his sacrificial object.Li Si then said: "It is not Li Si who dares to refuse Xiangguo, but the king should not be admonished. Strong remonstrance will only increase his anger, which is not only useless, but harmful. Xiangguo must want to save the queen mother, so Li Si has a word, I hope Xiangguo can listen."

Seeing that Li Si had made up his mind, Lu Buwei was not angry, and it was useless to be angry, Li Si's wings were hardened, and he could not ask for anything.Lu Buwei said: "Please tell me, dear guest." Li Sidao: "The authorities are confused, but the onlookers are clear. Li Si is an outsider, and he sent Xiangguo with the eight characters: no remonstrance is remonstrance, and no remonstrance wins remonstrance. Wang Xiangguo jumped out of the chess game and thought about it with a clear mind." Lu Buwei was unhappy.Not remonstrating is remonstrance, not remonstrating wins remonstrance, what kind of talk is this!It's not your old friend who dares to be locked up.How many times in life can there be opportunities to recover from lost, how would you, Li Si, know?

Lu Buwei came here in high spirits, but returned in disappointment.After Lu Buwei left, Li You, Li Si's eldest son, asked Li Si, "Father, what do you mean by remonstrance without remonstrance, and not remonstrance wins remonstrance?" Li Si smiled with satisfaction.This is a good question, and a child can be taught.He looked at Li You lovingly, Li You was already a sixteen-year-old handsome boy, the future glory and hope of our Li family rested on his shoulders, and he had to teach by example.Li Si then asked back: "Ju, I speak to you. In your opinion, when will the King of Qin want to imprison the Queen Mother?"

"Probably will continue to be imprisoned." Li Si shook his head, and asked again: "Why did King Qin imprison the Queen Mother?" "King Qin both hates the Queen Mother and fears the Queen Mother." Li Si shook his head again, and said: "King Qin has hatred for the queen mother, but fear is not necessarily true. Lai Ai's car was torn apart, three clans were killed, and party feathers were cut off. In this way, the queen mother is deeply lonely, so why bother? Although the king of Qin hates the queen mother, However, the mother and child are united, and the hatred cannot last long. Today, the King of Qin dared to risk the displeasure of the world, imprisoned the queen mother, and made fun of the world. It has been half a year, and the original intention has not changed, how can I hate it!"

"Then what is the purpose of King Qin imprisoning the Empress Dowager?" Li Si smiled approvingly, and said: "This question is the key point. If you ask the right question, you already know half the answer. Lu Buwei has an old relationship with the Queen Mother, so caring about it will cause chaos. He only wants to save people, but he can't ask this question. Lu Buwei is like If you can ask this question, you will be able to understand what I mean by saying that not to remonstrate is remonstrance, and not to remonstrate is better than remonstrance. It is definitely not empty words. Qin Wang imprisoned the Queen Mother at the beginning, but it was out of anger. Now that the anger is fading, he still refuses to release her. Why? The Empress Dowager has been in charge of state affairs for nearly ten years, with a deep foundation. Many ministers in the court only knew that there was an Empress Dowager, but not the King of Qin. The party of Lai Ai was in the Ming Dynasty, and it was easy to destroy; the party of the Queen Mother was in darkness, and it was difficult to find. I also know that the Empress Dowager must ask for help from Lu Buwei, and Lu Buwei will also instigate her party members to lobby for the Empress Dowager. Now that the Empress Dowager is killed, anyone who advises the Empress Dowager, but is not the Queen Mother’s party, is Lu Buwei’s party. The King of Qin punished him for this, even if there is some fairness in it If you want to destroy the queen mother and Lu Buwei, you must first eliminate the party. This is the intention of the king of Qin to imprison the queen mother. I Lu Buwei said that not to remonstrate is remonstrance, and not to remonstrate is better than remonstrance. Even if you don’t remonstrate, the King of Qin will eventually release the queen mother sooner or later. and also."

Li You sighed: "King Qin is only six years older than me, and his thoughts are so deep, so unfathomable?" Li Sidao: "Clarity comes from the revelation of the heavens, and it is a skill that is bestowed by heaven. It is beyond the reach of human beings. One day, you and my father and son will be officials in the same court. You must remember that the king of Qin is not an ordinary king. You should be Be in awe at all times. People are afraid of fire, and if they know how to avoid it, they will be able to preserve themselves. If people are light on water, if they often play with it, they will drown. Only in awe of the King of Qin can we deal with it for a long time, remember it."

Li You said again: "Lu Buwei is old and fatuous, and it seems that his days are numbered. Who will succeed him, Father?" Li Si scolded angrily: "The boy is so arrogant, but his tone is so arrogant! Lu Buwei is already a person whose name will go down in history, and he should be immortal. It is beyond what you and I can say at this moment. When you become the prime minister in the future, no matter how much you criticize Lu Buwei." Late. Lu Buwei can have what he is today, how can he be so delusional! Just now he said it to a foreigner, the insight is far-reaching, and it is beyond human ability. My father can't do it to this day. If Lu Buwei asks for something else, he will do his best to help him as a father. As for the empress dowager's matter, he declined because he couldn't help, and he is really ashamed. You must know the benefits and harms."

Li You said solemnly: "Father taught me the lesson."
