Good Life in Qin Dynasty

The Li family is bustling.

Lijiazhuang almost boiled!

But Gan Jing was suppressed.

"Although he became an official, that will be next year, and he has not yet become a man." Gan Jing asked Chunya to tell everyone that it is okay to be lively, but not too much, let alone pretend to be a servant of the official family.

The servants of the official family are different from the servants of ordinary people. As the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, although there is no such thing as a prime minister, but the servants of the official family can hardly walk outside. hold your head up.

Even if Li Jiyang became an official in the Li family, he was still just a baby official. The Li family's foundation was shallow and weak, and it was not a good thing to be too ostentatious.

"You've become an official!" Ying Zheng didn't look very happy.

"Yes, yes!" Li Jiyang patted him on the shoulder: "Brother will protect you from now on!"

Ying Zheng: "...!"

Although I don't quite understand what it means, but it doesn't seem to be a good word, because Xiaoyang smiled happily.

"Stop making trouble, do you know the team of servants sent by the king? They are the most capable people in the palace who can read people's faces and analyze expressions." Ying Zheng lowered his face: "What does he mean?"

"He did it for your own good." Li Jiyang decided to be a bosom brother: "You think, who am I getting close to? You! My foster father did this for you."

"For me?" Ying Zheng's face was still very long.

"Let me be the doctor's order. Although I don't protect the safety of the palace, I can recommend virtuous and famous people. I am yours, and the people I recommend will be yours no matter whether they are officials or in the wild. I will help you recruit talents and build power. This is to value and protect you. I don’t let you touch it directly. It’s because you take care of the benefits. If there are disadvantages, it’s my fault. I pity the parents of the world.” Li Jiyang and Ying Ying Political analysis: "You have just returned to China, and you haven't made any achievements yet. Everyone thinks that you are the eldest son, so you became a jiao? He has a family. I heard that he has several uncles. Not to mention that each of them is an uncle. There are talents, but there is definitely no shortage of people who can do things."

Ying Zheng nodded, he knew what was going on here.

To put it bluntly, four or six don't count!

Just him and A Niang, counting Xiaoyang, there are only three!

Oh, and the Meng family, but for some reason, Ying Zheng is not as close to the Meng family as Li Jiyang.

Although none of the Li Family Village can compare to the Meng Family, after all, the Meng Family has military power in their hands, and both father and son generations are people with military merits.

Li Jiyang is white, a commoner, at most a small landlord.

But he felt that he was closer to Xiaoyang.

"And what about you? Nothing! The Meng family started with military exploits. Although the support of the army is essential, fighting and killing cannot win the throne. We also need the support of civil servants. You need a doorman to advise you. The subordinates will inquire about the news for you."

Li Jiyang persuaded him earnestly: "So, the patriarch is for you. I think you are the candidate for the crown prince in his mind."

"Really?" Ying Zheng's complexion improved a lot, and his elongated face was retracted.

"Of course!" Li Jiyang nodded: "There's nothing wrong with Cheng Jiao."

"Really?" Ying Zheng's face turned normal, a little complacent.

"Think about it, if you really want to make him the crown prince, the king has plenty of opportunities and time. At that time, you are still in the Zhao country!" Li Jiyang continued to instill confidence in him.

Ying Zheng thought about it too, if his father liked Cheng Jiao, he would have made him the prince long ago.

"So, he inspected me for you to see if I can be your helper." Li Jiyang smiled and said, "Don't think too much."

"Yeah." Ying Zheng finally nodded.

After talking to Li Jiyang, he felt much better.

"Let's have dinner here tonight, I saw tofu yesterday, let's have tofu with sauce today!" Li Jiyang discussed with him: "Pair it with yellow steamed buns!"

"Okay!" Ying Zheng smiled: "Give me some more beef bones, that one is delicious!"

Li Jiyang hurriedly asked someone to tell the cook that if there was no beef, he had to buy it or kill a beef cow.

They also need bones and meat, boiled rotten, for Ying Zheng to gnaw on.

"Since I asked you to help me, what do you mean?" Ying Zheng and Li Jiyang were sitting in the room talking about their future.

"Become an official first. Once I do, I can recommend talented people. I'll investigate first. If it's suitable, I'll recommend it to you!"

Li Jiyang thought about it, and there is no other good way in this era, the news is lagging, and the communication remains unchanged.

Fortunately, he studies archeology and knows history, so he can definitely select some talents to help Ying Zheng!

"Okay." Ying Zheng also knew the importance of talents, or in other words, the entire Qin State knew the importance of talents.

"Besides, you must perform outstandingly in the palace, and let the king know your excellence." Li Jiyang began to plan again: "We are not short of money, so we will reward the servants a lot, they are closer to the king than anyone else, Follow the king's side longer than anyone else."

"It's just some eunuchs..." Ying Zheng was not too happy about spending money on eunuchs.

"But sometimes eunuchs can accomplish great things." Li Jiyang had a different opinion: "We don't lack that reward money."

"Wait for me... Make sure they spit it out!" Ying Zheng clenched his fists. He still remembered that when he just went back, he couldn't even eat hot food without a reward. The roast beef served was cold. The reward was very generous, and from then on, all the meat served in the dining room was the latest roasted meat, which was evenly fat and delicious.

"Okay, okay, let them spit it out for us!" Li Jiyang was happy to win Zheng's preconceived aversion to eunuchs, because he still remembered this history, but there was still Zhao Gao!

With him around, Zhao Gao would never get close to Ying Zheng!

"Also, you have to guard against Cheng Jiao even more. Now that you have official positions, among Cheng Jiao's uncles, there are also a few small corporal leaders, but there are no high-ranking officials. His grandfather is at the same level as you Thinking of this, Ying Zheng felt uneasy.

He didn't dare to tell Li Jiyang that he left four guards at that time, and he had already sent several calls for Li Jiyang to find fault. The house could not be moved here, and others could easily bully him. Fortunately, after a few times, those people also knew about the house. It was so powerful that no one came.

However, he guessed that those local ruffians who came to find fault had Cheng Jiao's shadow behind them!

Even if he didn't order it himself, it was also ordered by his followers and uncles, because Li Jiyang had no enemies in Xianyang City, except him.

But this eldest son of his was not given for nothing, so he suppressed this unhealthy trend.

"Of course!" Li Jiyang nodded: "He, although the throne has nothing to do with him, but he will not give up so easily, and the king's father will not see your brothers kill each other."

"But his brothers have almost been killed." Ying Zheng curled his lips.

"Really killed them all?" Li Jiyang gasped.

I remember that Yingzhu had more than [-] sons, all of whom were found faulting and slaughtered?

Lu Buwei deserves to be Lu Buwei, a real bull!

"How can we kill them all?" Ying Zheng became even more depressed: "Those who strongly oppose the killing, those with ordinary abilities are sent to other countries as hostages, and those who are really worthless are kept."

And they didn't give them any titles and official positions, so they were raised as princes of the country, let them have children, and increased the population of Qin.

Only then did Li Jiyang realize that what he thought was wrong before, he thought he would kill them all!

"Oh, that's how it is." Li Jiyang smacked his mouth.

Ying Zheng watched with joy: "What do you look like?"

"I thought they were all slaughtered!" Li Jiyang said honestly.

"Where can it be!" Ying Zheng was even happier: "If it were me, I wouldn't kill him and send him as a hostage."

This is probably worse than killing Cheng Jiao!

Li Jiyang immediately thought of this, and it was better to suffer than to die.

Historically, "The Chronicles of Qin Shihuang" in "Historical Records" records: In eight years, the king's younger brother Chang'an Jun Chengjiao general attacked Zhao, rebelled, died and stayed in the village, all the soldiers were killed, and his people were moved to Lintao.

The general died at the wall, and the soldiers stayed in Tunliu. Pu Yi rebelled and slaughtered his corpse.

The river fish are big, and the horses are light and the cars are heavy.

In the eighth year of Qin Shihuang, at that time Yingzheng was not in charge, so the person who designed to kill Chengjiao was Lu Buwei. Relevant historical data speculate that Chengjiao was born about 11 years ago, and King Zhuangxiang of Qin was about [-] years old when he died.

Yingzheng succeeded the King of Qin in [-] BC. The existence of Chengjiao became a potential threat to the Qin Dynasty. At that time, the Prime Minister Lu Buwei wanted to make Jiao to death.

In the first [-] years, Cheng Jiao led troops to attack the State of Zhao, but failed. He could not help but fail, and was forced to surrender to the State of Zhao, and was later executed by Lu Buwei.

There are very few records about him in later generations. I don't know why he led troops to attack Zhao Guo?At that time, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old. According to the records of this era, he had just grown up!

He has just grown up and is about to lead troops to fight, what are you kidding about?

For a young man like Li Jiyang, being an official is just a vain job, okay?It's just a name, not even real power.

So Li Jiyang guessed that it was a trap, but Lu Buwei could not get his hands on the military power, so this trap must have been set up by Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei in partnership to get rid of Cheng Jiao.

Cheng Jiao is too much of a threat to Yingzheng, he has a family, and although Lu Buwei helps Yingzheng, his name is not justified!

From the looks of it, Cheng Jiao should not be underestimated.

As for his natal family, Li Jiyang only remembered that at the time of Yingzheng, there was an important official named Wang Wan, and he didn't know what it had to do with Wang Xiang's family.

"In addition to Chengjiao, there is also Lu Buwei." Li Jiyang had to mention Lu Buwei, he is very important.

Although he came from a later generation and has golden fingers, there is no guarantee that he will be foolproof. After all, Lu Buwei is a local aborigine!

"Him?" Sure enough, Ying Zheng was very sensitive to the word Lu Buwei.

"At least, he is useful for the time being." Li Jiyang thought for a while: "Also, I recommend Gan Jing."

"Mr. Gan?" Ying Zheng still remembered Gan Jing.

"I recommend him as our think tank. He is very smart and loyal to you."

"But, his body...?" Ying Zheng still remembered Mr. Gan Jing who seemed to be dying soon.

"It's healed already." Li Jiyang said with a smile: "As I mentioned, my senior brother came and saw him, prescribed medicine, and after taking it, he'll be fine!"

It seems very simple.

"Okay?" Ying Zheng became more interested in Li Jiyang's mentorship, but Li Jiyang seldom mentioned it, and he didn't ask. Anyway, he knew that if Xiaoyang could say something, he would have told him already.

"Well, well, he understands Wenzhi, martial arts, astronomy and geography!" Li Jiyang said, "And he has a very smart son!" "Xiao Ganluo?" Ying Zheng still remembered that smart kid.

"Yeah, train well, and you will be a good courtier in the future, comparable to the rebirth of a Shang monarch." How can it be easy for someone who can become a prime minister at the age of 12?

"Oh?" Ying Zheng didn't expect Li Jiyang to value Xiao Ganluo so much.

"Don't worry, I won't harm you!" Li Jiyang assured: "Their father and son are equivalent to the Meng family among civil servants."

Among the generals, the Meng family has a high reputation.

Using the Meng family as a metaphor is better than anything else.

"Okay, just listen to Xiao Yang!" Ying Zheng has no help now, and the Li family and the Meng family are left.

In the Mansion of Marquis Wenxin, Lu Buwei also met Yang Feiying: "Li Jiyang is now a Lang Zhong Ling. Although he said that he will be appointed next year, he is a Lang Zhong Ling after all. You are my guest now, so you can help him. Manage documents There are scribes, you can recommend talents to him, counselor some affairs, he is young, don't make any trouble, after all, he is the Lang Zhongling personally appointed by the lord of the country, and he is also the adopted son of Mrs. Zhao Ji... "

Yang Feiying looked at the nagging Wen Xinhou and Lu Xiangbang in disbelief, how could he help Li Jiyang with his status?
