The days when I pretended to be a cat in the Forbidden City[Comprehensive]

"Why?" Mrs. Lu was a little surprised by his affirmative attitude.All the way she went north, all she heard was positive news, not only the people of Zhao State, but even the people of Wei State believed that Zhao State could win this battle.

Such a confident state doesn't seem to be aggressive.She poured a glass of water for Lu Buwei, then washed her son's little paws, and poured a glass of water for him to drink in her palm.

Lu Buwei didn't answer her right away, but turned to look at Lu An who was pecking at the chicks one by one, "An'er, what do you think?"

Lu An blinked and didn't answer immediately, but asked, "General Lian Po, is Zhao the strongest general?"

Lu Buwei was a little surprised, he nodded in response, and the child asked again: "Is Wang Yan the strongest general in Qin?"

Hearing this, Lu Buwei's eyes were full of smiles, "No, the strongest general in Qin is Bai Qi."

Seeing that the child wanted to ask a question, he added: "These two have never confronted each other, but Lian Po puts defense first, while Bai Qi is the opposite." Lu An nodded to show his understanding, and he asked another question, "Bai Qi Are there any combat missions now?"

"Ha!" Lu Buwei jumped up from the table, turned around on the ground a few times, and finally laughed loudly. After laughing, he sighed, "My son, a five-year-old child, can see through things. Poor Zhao Guoman is so civil and military. No one notices."

He met his wife's doubtful yet slightly enlightened eyes, and said, "Bai Qi was not sent to fight."

"So..." Mrs. Lu gasped, and she lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of alarming others, "What does your husband mean, that Qin will send troops to fight in vain because of the stalemate in the war?"

"Never leave." Lu Buwei smiled. He sat down again, picked up a lock of his son's long hair with his fingertips and gently pulled it, and then clumsily tied a small hair in his son's protesting eyes. Mao, "Lian Po has rich experience. If the Qin army suddenly changes commanders, he will be able to detect and respond accordingly. And if Zhao Wang really listened to the rumors from the people and changed Zhao Kuo..." He shook his head. can also know.

Zhao Kuo has never been on the battlefield, nor has he ever been in contact with either Bai Qi or Wang Lu. No matter how smart and clever he is, his experience will be zero.Even if the Qin army didn't send Bai Qi, it would be difficult for Zhao Kuo to deal with Wang Yan.

After all young.

Zhao Wang is young, so is Zhao Kuo.

Young people are the least afraid of making mistakes, because they have enough time to learn and correct mistakes, but once some mistakes are made, they will have to pay the price of the most cherished things, sometimes life, sometimes national luck.But these have nothing to do with Lu Buwei, the first thing he thinks about now is how to seize this golden opportunity.

The battle between Qin and Zhao is imminent. If there is one person who is most anxious now, it is undoubtedly the person he wants to get close to the most-Mr. Qin, a foreigner.

Ying Yiren's recent days are really not easy. He used to be a little transparent in Zhao country, the kind who was occasionally cueed at banquets, but now he is always on the scene and is dissed crazily.

This is no wonder to other people, after all, in Zhao people's view, Qin is playing the villain's script, which is extremely arrogant and domineering, and it doesn't make sense at all.What's wrong with Zhao Guo this time?Didn't they just accept the gift of love from Korea?What does it have to do with you old Qin people.

When the old Qin people sent troops to Shangdang, that was to invade their territory of Zhao State.What to say in the face of the invaders, of course you have to copy weapons.

Ever since the Zhou royal family moved eastward, they were the villains of the mighty and powerful country, and the major vassal states have gradually formed a consensus. They can fight each other's brains on weekdays, but when facing the Qin people, they must definitely unite.Well thought out, in actual operation... because of the love-hate love-hate stories among countries, naturally there is no shortage of people secretly communicating with the people of Qin.

Otherwise, there would be no room for Zhang Yi to break Su Qin's plan of combining vertical and vertical with continuous horizontal lines.

Not to mention conspiracies and schemes using calculations, they are all basic operations, everyone has the same education, there is no trick that you can use but I can't.

Three Views?nonexistent.

From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties is the second ideological revolution in Chinese society. In this era, the thoughts and behaviors of the previous generation and all common sense are overthrown every day. The clan blood system gradually fades away with the weakening of the Zhou royal family. The truth is that the fist is big. Ideas are emerging.

In less than 100 years, as the [surname] representing blood relationship is abandoned, and the [shi] representing geography and acquired through struggle becomes the representative of a person or a family, the Chinese nation will completely enter a new Confucianism-centered era. new era.In today's era known as the Warring States period in later generations, various ideas, measures, and theories are colliding silently and fiercely.

What was right yesterday may be dismissed as worthless today; what was wrong today may be right tomorrow.

There is no truth in such a violent trend of thought, and people are extremely confused about the judgment of right and wrong, and in the end they can only simply and rudely summarize it as - as long as they can survive, they are the truth.

What enables people to live is the truth of being human.

What can make a country survive is the truth of governing the country.

So although everyone thinks that Qin Guo is a super hooligan, it's not that they don't want to learn from Qin Guo. It's a pity that they can't do it.

It's not that there is no "Shang Yang", but that there is no "Qin Xiaogong".

Qin Xiaogong was only 21 years old when he came to the throne. At that time, all the foundations of Qin State during the period of Mu Gong were lost, and the princes did not even reserve a seat for Qin State in meetings. When talking about Qin, they even compared him to a barbarian.The reason why the old Qin's land was not captured by the eastern countries was not because of Qin's strength, but because the eastern princes who occupied the fertile soil looked down on the land to the west and were too lazy to do it.

From a certain point of view, the Qin State with its geographical environment protection can actually live a self-sufficient life in a corner, but the young princes and kings settled down to observe their country quietly, and they can clearly realize that there is an incomparable The cruel fact - our state of Qin is really too weak, if we don't change it, we will perish.

He then made his discovery public.

It seems easy, but in fact, few emperors throughout the ages were able to clearly see the country's problems, and few were able to roll up their sleeves and prepare to make drastic changes after seeing clearly. Even his successor, Ying Zheng, In the end, didn't you also make the decision to cover your own eyes and deceive yourself?

From the perspective of a bystander, you can say that this is stupid. Isn't it a very normal thing to correct your mistakes?But you must know that for people, especially those in high positions, pointing out the mistakes of others is no easier than lifting a finger, but pointing out your own is no less difficult than moving mountains and seas.Especially after being in power for a lifetime, and finally overthrowing everything I have done before, frankly admitting that I was wrong, how easy is it?

As far as Duke Xiao is concerned, what he wants to deny is not himself, but it is even more difficult, because what he wants to deny is the previous generations of ancestors, including his father and grandfather. The proud of everything that exists.But this young man in his early twenties did it. At this critical moment, he did not choose to form alliances with other powerful countries, let alone become a vassal state of other powerful countries, but chose the path of self-improvement.

He set a goal for himself, and for this goal, he was able to grit his teeth and bear all the consequences and all the pressure. He issued an order to seek meritorious service to the world with great sincerity. Write down all the weakest facts among the vassal states, and spread them to the land of China with extreme sincerity and even a little humility, and finally moved all the talented people in the world to enter Qin.

Shang Yang is a good talent, but there has never been a shortage of talents in the past dynasties in this land of China. Just like the saying "There are always horses, but Bole doesn't always have them." In the era of the lord, the lords and ministers are fair, and they themselves are partners.

In this era, there was only a similar fashion in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and there were almost no other customs.Why did all the talents in the world go to Qin, the poorest and weakest country at that time?In order to show off your talents?

No, as long as these talented people are willing, as long as they really express their ideas in the country where they are, then there is no doubt that their king will respectfully invite people to the palace and give them an official position.Whether it will be reused in the future will not be mentioned, but at least the beginning is guaranteed, so why did Shang Yang, who was an honest civil servant in Wei State at this time, go to Qin State instead of other countries?Because he understood Xiaogong's firm desire to seek change.

What attracted him was not a high-ranking official or rich salary, nor was it the praise of a prince, but the determination of the king to go to the end.

All talents do not lack people who appreciate them, what they lack is a king who can always believe in them, support them and continue their ideas.

Therefore, the reason why "Shang Yang" is "Shang Yang" is not because of his reform, but because of his successful reform.

In addition to him, Wu Qi at the same time also carried out reforms. In the end, he was shot through by the nobles together with the corpse of the mourning king who supported his reforms.Later, Wang Mang also reformed, and finally his skull became someone else's collection.Except for them, almost every dynasty in the later generations had reforms. In modern times, there is only the Reform Movement of [-] presided over by the emperor. But when the word "reform" is mentioned, the first thing people think of is the Shang Yang Reform. It is precisely because of this It is one of the few results in the bloody reform history that can be regarded as a good death.

Although Shang Yang himself was still killed by the opposition in the end, the reform was indeed passed on, and it did not collapse halfway like other reform activities. It can be seen that some things really depend on the destiny.

In the 500 years of the Qin State, it was able to develop from the Qin family, which was designated as the object of Zhou Dynasty's attention and vigilance because of supporting the Shang Dynasty, to the final Qin Dynasty. Supported to get up, there is a tenacity in the bones.

This tenacity naturally flowed in Ying Yiren's blood, so he was able to survive the insults again and again.

That's right, if Zhao Guo's attitude towards aliens was nothing more than contempt before, now it is a complete insult. This is the treatment that every proton of a belligerent country must enjoy.Before, Yiren was the son of a powerful country, and others would not offend him too much.This is not the case now, he is a hostage sent by a belligerent country, and he may be sacrificed by the king of Zhao at any time. Whether he is a person from Zhao or a guest at the banquet, he has released the pressure he has been under for a while. body.

It even changed from the secret sarcasm in the past to the bullying on the surface and the kind of physical attack.

Of course, everyone wants to save face. It is impossible to do it directly. It is too embarrassing for all decent people, so the people of Zhao Guo friendly invited other people to fight.As for being injured during wrestling...can an injury during wrestling be called an injury?That's called not being as good as a person, and it's called the confidence to make progress.

Therefore, in the past few days, Yiren returned home with injuries almost every day. He came to Zhao country alone, and because Zhao country cut off the living expenses that Qin country gave him, he lived in a very embarrassing life.Except for one or two loyal old servants, he couldn't afford to hire waiters, and he couldn't even hire a carriage. Before, he would be greeted by the host of the banquet, but now he can only walk home alone.

On this day, Yiren was walking alone on the street, and all he could hear in his ears were Zhao people's abuse of Qin, and some people pointed at him and laughed at him.The man pursed his lips tightly and clenched his fists tightly, but he couldn't say anything, he just let the anger burn and circle between his heart and lungs.
