Ying Zheng angrily told Shi Mi about Lu Buwei's transgression just now, but Shi Mi just listened quietly. After Ying Zheng finished venting, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.

"I thought it was something that made you so angry. It's just such a small thing."

"A trivial matter? He is arrogant! How can it be considered a trivial matter?!"

Ying Zheng clenched his fist angrily, wanting to smash the table to pieces!

Shimi still smiled softly, stood up and walked behind Ying Zheng, squeezing his shoulders to relax him as usual.

"You couldn't hold back your temper and want to accuse Lu Buwei because of these little things, right?"

Shimiya massaged his shoulders with just the right amount of force, which made Ying Zheng's temper calm down a little, and then... under Shimiya's guidance, he gradually calmed down.

"He stole your words. Although it was arrogance, it is a trivial matter! Nowadays, Lu Xiangguo's disciples are all over the country. The people and ministers all know that Lu Xiangguo was summoned by the late king, and even more so with Zhong. In my father's name, I am responsible for assisting the king in government affairs. If you blame him for these trivial things and show his shame, if other ministers see it, will they say that Lu Buwei is arrogant or that the king is stingy?"

"They dare!"

Ying Zheng slapped the table and asked sternly

"Now, in the end, the world of Qin belongs to Lu Buwei! Or it belongs to me!"

Shikiya was not in a hurry, he analyzed it gently and rationally.

"This world is naturally yours. But now... the right to decide the direction of Qin is in the hands of Lu Buwei. If your Majesty wants to solve this problem, why bother to rush?"

"Do you have any ideas?"

Ying Zheng pulled Shimi over, fearing that she would be injured while kneeling, and hugged her into his arms.

Shikiya thought for a moment and said with a smile.

"Now this game has just begun! Lu Buwei is in his prime. He has held the power for too long, and naturally he will not abide by his duties. He is not such a person. We will not care about these small things. If he did not commit the crime It is an even bigger mistake that we cannot eradicate with its henchmen! The net has just been cast, and the fish have just smelled the bait, and you are so eager to close the net. If you only alert the snake, it will be difficult to catch them all again! "

Ying Zheng's impatient mood finally eased. He thought for a moment and then asked

"Do you have any ideas?"

The two looked at each other, and Shimi said with a smile.

"Lu Buwei has definitely made a contribution by arranging Cheng Xi's mission to South Korea. Your Majesty should reward him and let him be unscrupulous."

Ying Zheng nodded.

"Yes! He is in his moment of glory now. How can I not add more fuel? I will send someone to give him a reward tomorrow."

"But at this moment...we should meet someone."

"Who?"

Shikiya said with a smile.

"Lee Si."

At this time, Li Si was still a disciple of Lu Buwei. Although he had introduced him to Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei seemed to be worried that Li Si would surpass him, so after two introductions, he no longer recommended him and just found him a minor official.

"Li Si's talents are not lower than Lu Buwei's. Besides, given the current situation, all the court ministers must have become Lu Buwei's followers. We must train our own people, and Li Si is the best candidate!"

Ying Zheng had always had a good impression of Li Si, but there were so many things going on these days that he actually forgot about this person.

"Do you know what he is doing now?"

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and responded with some uncertainty.

"It seems that Chang Shi has been appointed..."

Shimi stood up and thought for a moment, then said to Ying Zheng

"How about we find an opportunity to meet him?"

"You want to go with me? Is he... worthy of you, a pregnant lady, going to lobby in person?"

Li Si is naturally a talented person, but he is an egoist. In order not to follow the tragedy of the fall of Qin in the past, he needs to be warned and warned at this moment, and he must be responsible!

"Pull him away from Lu Buwei, which can be said to be easy or difficult. For a scholar like him, he can naturally abandon some humanistic ethics for the sake of his official career, but he can't bear to part ways with him. At this time... it's time to give him some help. Fire, let him know that if he gets too close to Lu Buwei, not only will he not be able to achieve success, but if he is not careful... he may both be destroyed!"

When Ying Zheng saw Shi Mi at this time, his expression was solemn and his analysis was clear and logical. Although she was in the harem, she seemed to know the former dynasty very well. She had never met Li Si, but she valued him very much. Although Ying Zheng was confused, she could not I think her analysis makes sense

"We went to meet Li Si in private. If Lu Buwei finds out, wouldn't all our previous efforts be wasted?"

"This is easy!"

Shikiya said with a smile

"Your Majesty, you are about to hold the crowning ceremony in Yongcheng. Naturally, there are many things to do. Why not ask Lu Buwei to go to Yongcheng and say that the crowning ceremony is an important event in your life. You must not make any mistakes. This Yongcheng The City Palace is very old, if it needs to be renovated or repaired, please ask Lu Xiangguo to take the trouble to take a look."

"My mother is in Yongcheng...if he goes...won't he call these two..."

Ying Zheng has always been worried about Lu Buwei's affair with Zhao Lijiang, and naturally he doesn't want them to meet again.

Seeing his hesitation, Shiya comforted him and said

"Lu Xiangguo doesn't dare to do anything wrong. Now the situation is imminent. He doesn't even have time to be careful. How could he be so blinded by lust at this time that he ask you to catch this? Wouldn't it be a recipe for disaster?"

Shimi held Ying Zheng's hand and comforted him.

"Besides, the Queen Mother has been to Yongcheng for a long time, but you have not visited. I guess the ministers in the court have criticized it. Why not send Lu Buwei to visit at this time? Firstly, it can make the ministers shut up, and secondly, it can make Lu Buwei relax his vigilance and feel that Your Majesty has no doubts about them..."

Shimi analyzed the matter in such detail that Ying Zheng naturally stopped thinking about it and called Lu Buwei to the palace for discussion the next day.

When Lu Buwei heard that Ying Zheng suddenly wanted to send him to Yongcheng, he was naturally confused and remembered that Zhao Lijiang there was probably still hanging out with Lao Ai! After finally breaking off the relationship with them, wouldn’t it be bad luck if we got involved again now?

"Is there anything wrong with the Prime Minister?"

Ying Zheng saw that he was silent and seemed reluctant.

"No, nothing is wrong!"

Lu Buwei Zuoji responded

"It's just the crowning ceremony in Yongcheng. Naturally, there will be ministers to take care of it. If a minor minister goes again...will..."

Before Lu Buwei finished speaking, Ying Zheng immediately said again

"Although there are ministers in Yongcheng doing these things, I can't see it with my own eyes, so naturally I don't feel at ease. If the Prime Minister can go and see for me, I will feel more at ease. Besides..."

Ying Zheng said again

"I haven't contacted my mother and queen for a long time. Although she is at fault, she is still Gu's biological mother. If the Prime Minister can say hello to my mother and queen on Gu's behalf, it will make Gu Gu feel more at ease..."

Now that the words have come to this point, it is really unjustifiable for Lu Buwei to shirk anymore. Even though he was reluctant, he could only nod and responded.

"Yes... Your Majesty trusts Wei Chen so much, Wei Chen must make this trip for you personally!"
