my grandfather was qin shi huang

Those who mess up the Qin Dynasty are fools!

The First Emperor is old. If he wants to overthrow the Qin Dynasty and restore the homeland of the Six Kingdoms, he can only rely on his successor, who is a fool. And the [-]th Young Master in front of him, who was ambitious, talented, a little ambitious, favored by the First Emperor, but lacking in ability, even a little ignorant and short-sighted, was naturally the best candidate.

Originally, everything was going well.

There was no need for people like him to take action. The eldest son Fusu, who was resolute, brave, trustworthy, tolerant, and had political foresight, was fooled by that old man Chun Yuyue. He actually contradicted the First Emperor many times, and himself You've toyed with yourself!

Next, it was a matter of course for this idiot to take over, and the situation was very good.

Who knew that a stunningly talented emperor's eldest grandson would suddenly appear!

Many people may not realize the danger behind this, but Li Shiqi has already smelled an unusual meaning through the pass, so he gathered a few old friends and rushed to Xianyang to devote himself to the "seeking talents" Under the sect of the eighteenth young master who is thirsty.

And he, Li Shiqi, also successfully became one of the Eighteenth Young Master's most trusted disciples.

"Young Master, the power of the emperor's eldest grandson is already like a prairie fire. If you continue to wait and see, I'm afraid it will be too late to regret..."

Hu Hai's expression was gloomy and uncertain. Looking at this retainer who had always been very strategic and discerning, an imperceptible gloom flashed in his eyes.

"Mr. Li is exaggerating. Although he is favored by His Majesty, he is only a grandson after all..."

Li Shiqi knew that the eighteenth young master had listened to his words.

He looked directly at Hu Hai in front of him without any hesitation.

"Your Majesty swept through the six kingdoms and unified the world. This is an unprecedented pattern. Most of the government decrees in the court are also crude and have never been seen before. Who stipulated that the position of the East Palace must require a prince..."

Hu Hai's expression suddenly changed.

He had always felt that Zhao Ying had deprived him of the favor of the First Emperor. He never thought that that bitch might actually succeed to the throne of the First Emperor.

Li Shiqi's words suddenly shocked him.

Seeing Hu Hai's expression change drastically, Li Shiqi couldn't help but twirling his beard and smiled calmly.

"Young Master, please be patient. Although the emperor's eldest grandson seems to be in the limelight now, the advantage is still on the Young Master's side. Now the Young Master is not only popular among the public, but his wings are becoming more and more full..."

Speaking of this, Li Shiqi glanced at Hu Hai thoughtfully.

"Now, the young master responds to every call, why do you sit back and watch the emperor's eldest grandson gradually erode the opportunities that should belong to you, and remain indifferent and refuse to take action?"

Hu Hai struggled with his eyes.

Li Shiqi's expression was indifferent and his words were serious and thoughtful.

"The master treats his ministers with sincerity, and I can only treat him with all my heart. Today, when I say this, I am not trying to encourage the master to cause chaos, but because I think that there are some things that no one will give to you, and you must fight for them. Fight, otherwise I’m afraid you’ll regret it later…”

Hu Hai looked up at Li Shiqi, who looked at him calmly.

After a long time, Hu Hai let out a long breath with an inexplicable tone.

"Yesterday you said you were going to try to impeach Zhao Ying, but when I went there today, His Majesty was still discussing state affairs with Zhao Ying, so intimately that he didn't even have the time to see me..."

Hearing Hu Hai's question, Li Shiqi couldn't help but smile.

"Young Master, why should you worry? Young Master, do you know that three people can become tigers and achieve success over a long period of time? We originally knew that those memorials alone would not have any impact on the emperor's eldest grandson. The reason why I proposed that Young Master mobilize people to continuously Impeachment is because this is a plan that kills three birds with one stone..."

Hu Hai looked at Li Shiqi with some confusion.

"First, no matter how talented and intelligent the emperor's eldest grandson is, he is only a teenager in his teens and should always have the temperament of a teenager. Once he is easily offended, he will be criticized and impeached every now and then. Do you think he can turn a blind eye? His temperament is so messed up that he His behavior will appear inappropriate. Once he behaves inappropriately and makes frequent mistakes, it will in turn mess up his mind. Once he is at a loss, he will often do wrong things, or become angry and wantonly retaliate..."

Having said this, Li Shiqi couldn't help but reveal a smug smile at the corner of his eyes.

"When the time comes, Young Master, do you think His Majesty will still be as doting on him as he is now..."

When Hu Hai heard this, his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but ask.

"Then what about the second one..."

"Secondly, the young master is now following the general trend. He responds to the call and throws himself like a crucian carp crossing the river. However, the young master has never expressed any expression. If he does not show his strength appropriately and show some enterprising gestures, how can we make people who have high hopes Are the young master safe?"

When Hu Hai heard this, he couldn't help but think deeply.

In the past, he just wanted to be like his eldest brother Fusu, learning how to solve problems for the First Emperor and win over the forces in the court, but he really never thought about dealing with the eldest nephew who had stolen his favor.

When Li Shiqi said this, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have really ignored this issue in the past. There is no hope in following a prince who has no ambitions. He has been waiting dryly. How can he reassure the forces who have taken refuge in him?

No wonder some people remain ambiguous and refuse to take a stand!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think highly of Li Shiqi.

"So what about the third one——"

Hu Hai already had a somewhat respectful look on his face.

Li Shiqi smiled slightly.

"Third, it is natural for three people to become a tiger. Ordinary people are ignorant, like chickens, dolphins, and dogs. They drive them east and lead them west. If the emperor's eldest grandson is frequently impeached by officials, but His Majesty has always ignored it, then How will the people of the world think, as long as there is a little guidance——"

Having said this, Li Shiqi looked at Hu Hai and smiled without saying a word.

Hu Hai couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"Sir, there is no other scholar in the country. I am alone, and you are even more powerful than a tiger!"

Seeing Hu Hai bending down and saluting in front of him, Li Shiqi couldn't help but turn up the corners of his mouth slightly, and the disdain in his eyes flashed away. His face showed the emotion of meeting a close friend, he unfolded his sleeves and bowed in return.

"I thank you for not abandoning me. Although I am stupid, I am willing to do my best for you..."

It doesn't matter what the people think. As long as Hu Hai can mobilize all the officials in the court and find a reason to impeach His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson every now and then, his confidant will be able to take the opportunity to guide him.

Although Qin won the world, in terms of influence among the people of the Six Kingdoms, the nobles of the Six Kingdoms may not be half inferior.

……

Zhao Ying didn't know that someone had already regarded him as a threat and started a series of actions against him.

At this time, he had already discussed the general framework with the First Emperor. He was holding a glass of boiled water, leaning lazily on the back of the chair, and continued to discuss with the First Emperor, who was slowly swinging in the rocking chair with his eyes narrowed. Details to follow.

"Father, if you are looking for a storyteller, I think those Confucian scholars are good candidates. They can read, write, speak eloquently, and can use weapons to reason with others——"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying couldn't help but feel happy.

The First Emperor couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the tea in the cup almost splashed on his face. This was the first time he heard someone describe that group of Confucian scholars in this way, and he couldn't help laughing and scolding him angrily.

"How can you arrange people like this? If that old guy Chunyu Yue heard these words of yours, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood——"

After laughing, the First Emperor pondered for a moment, and then nodded slightly with approval.

"Yes, he is indeed a good candidate——"

First of all, Confucianism has begun to actively move closer to itself. Not only has it proposed the idea of ​​great unification, but it has also given public lectures in Xishui Thatched Cottage and started debates with various schools. It is considered as one of its own.

Although Chun Yuyue no longer asked questions in the court and did not resume his post as doctor in the court, his two direct disciples had been selected into the court to occupy the doctor's seat.

Secondly, Confucianism was a prominent school in the world and had a great influence on the people. The benevolent government and caring for the people he advocated made the people feel natural towards them. It was natural for them to be the storytellers.

That's right, when the media is underdeveloped and the literacy rate of the people is not high, the best way Zhao Ying can think of is to cultivate a group of storytellers.

Write the story of Da Qin well, tell the story of Da Qin well, and let these Confucian scholars serve as the mouthpieces of Da Qin and the vanguard of public opinion.

Public opinion is like a fertile field. If you don't take care of it and plant it, it will naturally be covered with all kinds of weeds!

Zhao Ying felt that the Great Qin in the previous life suffered from this. It was too tough, too domineering, and too eager, but it did not seize the extremely important position of public opinion, nor did it communicate well, leaving the remnants of the Six Kingdoms alone. He fanned the flames, spread rumors, and guided public opinion everywhere, which led to everyone in the world viewing Da Qin as a snake and a scorpion.

The First Emperor was labeled as a tyrant, and the Great Qin Dynasty became the bamboo of Qingnan Mountain. It was a tyrannical Qin with endless crimes, breaking the waves of the East China Sea, and endless evil!

He didn't know how effective his move would be, but he knew that if he didn't do it, he would be sitting back and waiting to die, handing this position to others.

Became a complete idiot!

Zhao Ying, who felt that he had taken a small step forward on the road to saving his life, felt much better. He chatted with the First Emperor for a few more words, and was about to get up and go to the recruit camp to have a look.

As soon as he stood up, he saw Zhao Gao holding a black and gold-painted tray, walking quickly from outside with small steps.

"Your Majesty, this is the month. Han Zhong has donated 25 pills in total. I have personally inspected them. They are all in good condition and are rare treasures..."

Zhao Gao has always been in charge of the First Emperor's elixirs, and today it's time to donate them again.

This was the first time that Zhao Ying encountered someone offering elixirs to the First Emperor. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, stopped, stood aside, and calmly swept the tray in Zhao Gao's hand.

A small bottle of mutton-fat white jade is placed neatly on the top of the tray. It has a warm color and looks extremely high-end.

When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but perked up and sat up straight.

"Send it over——"

Zhao Gao held the tray high and sat half-kneeling in front of the First Emperor. The First Emperor reached out and picked up the vial on the tray, uncorked it, put it to his nose, smelled it slightly, then poured out another one, put it in the palm of his hand, and looked at it carefully. , a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Yes, the color is bright, the medicinal fragrance is fragrant, the size is uniform, and the quality is good - it seems that Han Zhong's alchemy skills have improved again..."

As the First Emperor spoke, he picked up a pill and prepared to swallow it. Zhao Ying couldn't help but his eyelids twitching.

"Father, let me see—"

With that said, Zhao Ying reached out and took the elixir from the First Emperor's hand.

It was just a pill, so the First Emperor was not in a hurry and looked at him happily.

"If you like it, I can share a few with you, and then let Han Zhong make it again..."

For Zhao Ying, his grandson, the First Emperor had always been very generous.

Zhao Ying thanked him cheerfully, and took the elixir in his hand to admire it carefully for a while. It looked like the traditional Chinese medicine balls of later generations, but it looked better in appearance. It was not only round and shiny, but also smelled good. There is even a faint medicinal fragrance.

It looks quite bluffing.

However, he knew in his mind that this thing was made of heavy metals and some random Chinese herbal medicines.

If you eat it, you won't die on the spot, but the damage to your body will be lasting.

"There's nothing special about this thing. Can eating it really extend your life?"

Zhao Ying pretended to be confused and looked at Zhao Gao aside.

"This is carefully refined by Han Zhong. It only takes a month to get one furnace. It costs a lot of money. It is hard to get, so naturally there will be no fakes..."

Zhao Ying heard this and looked at the First Emperor with a smile.

"Father, is it really so magical?"

The First Emperor smiled.

"Over the years, I have been taking the elixir that Han Zhong personally refined. Every time I take it, I feel that my body is lighter and my spirit is much better..."

Zhao Ying: ...

It sounds quite similar to the Five Stone Powder of later generations, which can stimulate people's nerves and give people a temporary sense of excitement.

As he spoke, the First Emperor poured out another one and stuffed it directly into his mouth. Then soon, his face showed a relaxed look, his face was slightly flushed, and his voice seemed to be much louder than before.

"Yes, the effect this time is better than last time. According to my decree, I will reward the warlock Han Dong with a thousand pieces of gold, a hundred pieces of silk, and all the precious herbs are as before..."

Then, the First Emperor asked someone to take a small jade bottle with a similar appearance, poured out seven or eight pills in a very grand manner, carefully put them in, and then turned around and handed them to Zhao Ying, who was standing aside with a "covetous" look.

"This is a reward for you——"

After saying that, the First Emperor turned around and ordered Zhao Gao.

"Next time, let Han Zhong practice more and send it to you. If you need anything, just ask Mr. Shi to get it..."

Zhao Gao glanced at the jade bottle in Zhao Ying's hand with some envy, and then responded respectfully.

Looking at this scene, Zhao Ying couldn't laugh or cry. Looking at this posture, both of them thought this thing was a good thing. But when he thought of today's arrangements for Chen Ping, he glanced at Zhao Gao subconsciously and couldn't help but smile.

This smile fell in the eyes of the First Emperor, and he thought he had received the elixir as a reward, and he felt happy in his heart.

But Zhao Gao didn't know why, but he always felt that the smile on His Highness the Emperor's Grandson's face today seemed to be a little ill-intentioned towards him.

"
