Longyang loves Qin

Ye Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, lowered his head as if taking a nap, and beside him, Zhao Cheng reported some recent news to him as usual.

It is true that Lu Buwei presides over the placement of the princes, but the guards still fall on Ye Yu.

Although he is a bit overqualified to do so in his current status as the Marquis of Guannei, everyone knows that he is a confidant of Yingzheng. Sending him can express the importance Yingzheng attaches to Baijia. Second, compared to some veterans or burly Titan, his appearance is always easier to get close to Baijia.There is no way, ancient times are also very face-seeking.

Of course Lu Buwei would not do everything by himself, so a lot of things fell to the people below. Gan Luo and Ye Yu didn't have a good rest for a few days because of this.Today's hundreds of schools are not limited to the ten schools and nine streams left by later generations, but there are really hundreds of schools. If you count some people who have established their own sects after a short book, there are more than a thousand schools.

This is probably the first time that Xianyang has welcomed so many people. For a while, the huge capital city felt a bit crowded. Not only Ye Yu, but also many related officials became busy, which also added a lot to the solemn Xianyang city. angry.

Lu Buwei sits on the top and gives orders, thinking that he has been respected by hundreds of schools, but he doesn't know that the real favorability has long been taken away by Gan Luo and Ye Yu, who stay on the ground all day long, and then make a good impression for Ying Zheng. Sensitivity and fame.

If Yingzheng had the right to select Lu Buwei, the situation would be very different, but unfortunately he didn't, and all the choices were in Yingzheng's hands.After a few people who tried to curry favor with Lu Buwei to find out one or two news failed, these people knew that Lu Buwei had no decision-making power, so they settled down.

The current Lu Buwei is completely emptied by Gan Luo and Ye Yu, but he is also used to letting his servants do everything. The few servants he let in are not particularly powerful characters, and the powerful ones have to go to work, so until now He didn't notice anything was wrong.

The city became lively, but the place outside gradually calmed down.

Tunliu is a small place, and there are no strong defenders and deployments. It was quickly attacked by Le Cheng and the subordinates left behind by Ying Chengxun were also wiped out.

However, Ying Zheng originally planned to exile the head of Guizhou there, but was stopped by Ye Yu's private remonstrance.

In his opinion, it is normal to sit even now, but it is too much to sit with irrelevant people in the whole city, so he persuaded Ying Zheng to forgive those Qianshou.

What Ye Yu didn't expect was that this move would give Ying Zheng an inexplicably good reputation.

In fact, Yingzheng's actions are nothing at this time. Even Lord Mengchang got angry because of a few words, and then casually destroyed a county.

Just at this juncture, the news got out. The Mohists, Confucians, and peasants who were originally opposed to Qin learned about it, and after thinking about a few other things, they felt that the new King of Qin was different from the previous King of Qin. Maybe it was for testing. , or maybe they really came to help, in short, they also came to Qin.

Such a situation is better than the effect of the recruitment order. Even other countries have settled down for a few years due to various reasons. Watching Qin Guo recuperate and then develop and grow.

After Ying Zheng learned about all the consequences, he also didn't expect that there would be miraculous effects. In his opinion, it was just to forgive the heads of Guizhou for Ye Yu's face, and reduce the rebellion of refugees by the way. He didn't expect to attract sages to Qin.

He couldn't help sighing: "That sword is really suitable for you." He was talking about the Zhanlu Sword, which is known as the "Sword of Benevolence" and is also said to assist the king of righteousness.

"It's also Wang Shanghui's eye." For so many years, the most satisfying gift Ye Yu has received is probably the Zhanlu Sword, and even mentioning it now brings joy.

"Let's go and see those masters with me," Ying Zheng mentioned.Saying that we will meet again after the crown ceremony is just blocking Lu Buwei's words. Anyway, he will not make such an early decision, and no one will say anything because of it. Maybe he is still looking forward to his early visit and leave an impression on him earlier. .

Ye Yu had expected that Ying Zheng would go to see it, so he didn't feel any doubts at this time, he just asked, "If your majesty is going to see the Confucian and Mohists, you might as well bring Zhang Cang with you."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly, but quickly agreed.

Zhang Cang rushed over after receiving the order. He looks a lot plumper now than when he first came to Qin. Seeing that such a handsome young man is gaining weight, Ye Yu is helpless.Zhang Cang's physique is easy to get fat and thin, but he is still a technical nerd. He was fine when he lived in Ye Yu's place. After he got the mansion, he hardly exercised. It's only natural to gain weight at a young age.

Ye Yu wondered if the Confucian group could recognize him.

Fortunately, this kind of thing has not happened yet, and Confucianism recognized Zhang Cang after a while.

Zhang Cang was young, and he was accepted by Xun Kuang after Xun Kuang returned to Lanling from Jixia, but he still kept in touch with Confucianism, so many Confucianists knew Zhang Cang.

As soon as Ying Zheng saw Zhang Cang, Ying Zheng hadn't said anything yet, and the Confucian group's favorability for Ying Zheng immediately went up a bit.

Because Zhang Cang used to be from an average family and studied hard at Xun Kuang's place, so he is tall and thin.But now that he has gained so much weight in Qin State, and he can still travel with King Qin, it can be seen that he has been treated very well in Qin State, and King Qin attaches great importance to him.

The Confucians at this time were not actually pedantic, and they were not stupid. They did not rashly talk about their theories in front of Ying Zheng, but slowly figured them out.And at this time, the Confucian warlocks did not offend Yingzheng, so the sense they left for Yingzheng was not bad.In addition, Confucianism itself has a good impression of Ying Zheng, the king of Qin who seems to be a bit different, and Zhang Cang is on the side as a lubricant, so the meeting went smoothly.

Next was the Mohist school. Ye Yu asked Ying Zheng to bring Zhang Cang along with him, not only because of the favorability of Confucianism, but also because Zhang Cang was more inclined to the Mohist academic school, and it was easier to get along with the Mohist school.

There are two types of Mohist disciples, one is the academic school, and the other is the ranger.There were very few rangers this time, mainly because of the academics. After some discussion, Ying Zheng's dislike for those lawless rangers did not implicate all the Mohists, but he still planned to reuse them.

Next, Yingzheng would occasionally go to Baijia's house for a walk, but the frequency gradually decreased, because the day of the crown ceremony was approaching.

The coronation ceremony was scheduled for April, two months later than usual, but this time no one would think that he was being coerced, and would instead praise him for postponing the coronation ceremony in order to wait for the princes.

It wasn't until this time that Lu Buwei noticed that Yingzheng's reputation had grown so much that it had overshadowed him since then, and no one or anything could stop Yingzheng from taking charge.

Sikong Ma was worried for him: "My lord, what you have done before has already deterred King Qin. If King Qin is as mediocre as we thought, then it will be fine. But from what King Qin has done recently, he is not willing to be like King Chu once. To obey Lord Chunshen, or to obey you like King Zhuang Xiang, but to get rid of you."

Lu Buwei was startled, and asked, "How did you see it?"

Sikong Ma replied: "He suppressed your limelight and used it to promote himself, precisely because he has reached the age of taking charge of the government, and he no longer has to restrain his edge. Look at the people he is close to."

"Only Ye Changli and Gan Luo'er are of sufficient status. The rest are young and energetic people, and it is impossible to get up all at once." Lu Buwei did notice that Ying Zheng supported his cronies. , but still too young, he didn't care too much.

Sikong Ma shook his head and said: "But now the military power of the three auxiliary generals has returned to King Qin's hands. Moreover, his close minister Ye Changli has a good relationship with Wang Lu and Duke Hu, and he has good relations with the Meng family, Li family, and Le family. The relationship is very close, looking at the high-ranking generals, no one is at odds with him, and most of the successors in various positions are friendly with him. King Qin has not only military power, but also the loyalty of many generals, and disloyal people can also inherit Or, like this, nearly half of the court has already been quietly subdued by him."

Lu Buwei never planned to rebel like Chun Shenjun, but it's not like he has no military power at all.Although he didn't like those reckless men, he had also led troops to fight against Zhou Tianzi in the past, and he made friends with and supported generals, and his personal guards numbered more than [-].

At this time, he thought carefully about the generals he had supported. There was almost no movement in the ranks.As for the army that he himself once led, it has already dispersed to nowhere.

Sikong Ma went on to say: "There is also Na Ganluo. He did not do any major things after he was 12 years old. At first, it seemed that the name of Shangqing was false, and because of his young age, he was ignored. But I went to check. , He has a very good relationship with Jiuqing, he often asks for advice, rarely takes charge, but often participates, this is learning and experience! Besides, he is the grandson of Gan Xiang, a son of a family, and often contacts with nobles of the family, these people You, who have always disliked being a merchant, were just flattering you in the past, but now you are naturally closer to the King of Qin. Jiuqing and the aristocratic family also occupy a small part of the court! In the past, your servants were officials, and they were under their hands?"

He looked sad again, "Originally, you have thousands of disciples, a illustrious name, and outstanding achievements to the Qin State. These are your real reliance. However..."

He sighed and said, "How can your followers and reputation compare to hundreds of scholars? The King of Qin has made such a plan, how many people are still coming to join you now? Everyone praises the good name of the King of Qin, who is still praising it?" What about you? As for your achievements... have you forgotten Wu Xinjun?"

Wu Xinjun is Zhang Yi. He used to be a ruler for the state of Qin, but because he was slandered by others, the new king was displeased. In the end, he was afraid of being killed and fled.

Are there few people who slander Lu Buwei?Among other things, Lai Ai is the first one who is favored by the Queen Mother Zhao, not to mention that Ying Zheng himself doesn't like him.

Zhang Yi escaped after fooling King Wu with his ingenuity, but would Ying Zheng, a scheming man who had already planned to subdue the court, really be fooled by Lu Buwei?Moreover, Lu Buwei's family has a great career, so it is even more difficult to escape.

Lu Buwei's face turned pale, and he asked hoarsely, "Then what should I do?"

Sikong Ma whispered: "You have a chance now."

The author has something to say: ① "Historical Records" described Zhang Cang as "fat and white as a gourd", and there is no conclusion whether he is fat or not. Still choose him as a fat man.

②The crowning ceremony in the article is still a year earlier than in history.
