The villain system of Mingyue in Qin Dynasty
Chapter 170 Marriage Strategy and Appeasement Strategy
As the girl responded, the fireball in the tent was immediately extinguished, and the interior of the tent was as thick as silk.
Ying Ziyi sat back down in the darkness, relying on his feeling.
"Come out!"
As Ying Ziyi finished speaking, Xiao Yu only felt that a raging sword intent like fire was coming, but then disappeared completely in an instant.
The tent became bright again, and several braziers placed on both sides of the tent were all lit. When Xiao Yu saw clearly, there was another person in the tent unknowingly.
This is a swordsman who hides his figure and appearance in the darkness. He kneels down in front of Ying Ziyi and is hidden in the darkness of the silhouette of the desk. Xiao Yu doesn’t even know whether this swordsman is a man or not. female?
"From now on, you are the lowest assassin in the network and are subject to its jurisdiction."
"A snare?" Xiao Yu was startled and said, "Is what you asked me to do for you..."
"That's right, what I asked you to do is nothing more than to eliminate some unnecessary troubles for me."
"unnecessary trouble."
Xiao Yu was about to say something, but Ying Ziyi waved his hand and said, "Go down!"
Xiao Yu looked at Ying Ziyi, then at the swordsman kneeling in front of the case, and finally retreated.
"Your Highness, I really can't see that such a little girl is worthy of Your Highness's troubles." The swordsman stood up, revealing a beautiful profile under the light.
Ying Ziyi smiled, leaned back slightly, and said: "You are the leader of the Eight Swords of the King of Yue. Moreover, with your identity, it is most appropriate to leave this matter to you. Because she is a special person, at least, for This is the case for this king."
"Is that so?" The swordsman smiled sweetly and said, "I have never seen His Highness have such an attitude towards a person. I really want to see what is so special about this little girl. I hope she can pass the snare. It’s a test for newbies!”
Is the snare a test for novices? Ying Ziyi smiled, which was not acceptable to ordinary people.
"I'll leave her to you, Luo Qi." Ying Ziyi said cautiously.
"Slave, I obey!" The woman called her slave, but there was no hint of respect in her words, but Ying Ziyi seemed to let it go.
When all of Luo Wang's assassins, including Yue Wang Ba Jian, joined Luo Wang, their original names became unimportant. However, only this woman is special, because she is the only swordsman who joined the trap but did not lose her true heart.
"Okay then! I want to see how many rounds this little girl can survive under my hands?" Luo Qi smiled, and her figure disappeared in the big tent, just as fast as she came. Same.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince. Is it really good to include such a person in a trap?"
There seems to be more than one person hiding in this dark tent.
"Chen Ping, are you worried that Luo Qi is not capable enough?" Ying Ziyi asked, sitting in front of his desk.
"On the contrary, I believe that Luo Qi's ability is sufficient for the great trust entrusted to her by His Highness the Crown Prince. However, what I am worried about is not that her ability is not enough, but that her ability is too strong, and even..." Chen Ping's figure walked out of the darkness at the edge of the light, and a trace of worry flashed across his face, which was as beautiful as that of any stunning woman.
"Even this king can't control it?"
Ying Ziyi knew exactly what Chen Ping was thinking. For a wise man, they never like people who can influence their precise planning. Once the chess pieces on the chess board have the power to influence the chess players, then which chess player can like it.
And Luo Qi really belongs to such a powerful chess piece that can influence the direction of the chess game.
"His Royal Highness, you should know that Luo Qi is not her real name. My subordinates have already investigated her past. Her past is mysterious, and with the power of the net, they have not been able to find out even a trace of her past movements. And if that girl is right If Your Highness is really important, it would be too risky to leave it to Luo Qi."
"I already know a little bit about Luo Qi's life experience."
"Your Highness, you are..." What Chen Ping wanted to say was how did you know. But think about it, such words go against the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers, the distinction between superiors and inferiors.
Ying Ziyi smiled and didn't mind very much. This is a common problem among wise men. The persistent pursuit of answers to puzzles sometimes even surpasses everything else.
"Actually, you just told the answer. Who is it? Even with the power of the net, I can't find a trace of her past. Or let's put it this way! Who can make this king's eyes and ears become... Useless."
What Ying Ziyi said was very clear. Even a slightly smarter person already has three points of understanding at this moment. Not to mention a rare counselor like Chen Ping.
Chen Ping took a breath of air, the answer was self-evident.
The world is so big, who can make Ying Ziyi, the crown prince of Qin, blind and unable to find his direction.
His Majesty the First Emperor!
Luo Qi is a member of His Majesty the First Emperor!
This is the only reasonable explanation. Since Chen Ping took charge of Luowen, he has made great and deep reforms to Luowen. This beast, which used to choose and devour people when it smelled the smell of blood, now has a three-point increase in its evil aura in the world. There are dozens of heaven-level killers represented by the Six Sword Slaves, hundreds of middle-level forces armed with ancient swords, and countless desperadoes, which are enough to scare most of the forces in the world.
However, in the end, this is just a force that appears on the outside, or Chen Ping deliberately wants others to feel this way. Luo Wang is just an organization filled with murderous intent and provoking enemies everywhere. Although it can be rampant for a while with the power of Qin, it will eventually be lost in the dust of history.
In fact, this is just the tip of the iceberg of the huge organization that is Luowen. Through the net, Ying Ziyi has been carrying out more secretive plans. This plan will include the princes and hundreds of schools of thought in the world, from South Vietnam to North Hu. For this reason, Ying Ziyi divided Luo Yu into two parts and established the more mysterious Jiuyou Hall inside. Chen Ping was the implementer of this plan and was in charge of the ghosts in Jiuyou Hall.
Frankly speaking, Ying Ziyi's plan has just begun. He is just sowing seeds on this land and has not yet waited for the flowers to bloom and bear fruit. But even so, his Luowang is still a very popular organization in the world at the moment. At least in terms of momentum, it can compete with traditional big forces such as Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, and Fanong.
But this was still too insignificant in front of Emperor Qin.
This man sits high on the throne and stares at Guanzhong. His control over this world and this empire is unparalleled. The imperial army, civil and military officials, and countless forces that openly and covertly serve the empire will eventually gather in the hands of Emperor Qin like silk threads, allowing him to fiddle with and swing them.
"Excuse me, may I be aware of His Highness's plan when His Majesty the Emperor sends such a high-profile person here?"
"It's certain that he's aware of it, but it's just that he's aware of it." Ying Ziyi shook his head. He still had full confidence in the confidentiality of his plan. Otherwise, if Emperor Qin knew all of his plans, his status as prince would not be preserved, and he might still be in a dilemma.
"So, why did Luo Qi come to set up a trap?" Chen Ping himself was confident about the confidentiality of this plan. Just as soon as the question disappears, the question arises again. In Chen Ping's view, such a high-profile person is really not suitable for doing secret things, such as gathering intelligence, ambushing undercover agents, etc. Emperor Qin should also be aware of such things. In this case, why he sent such a person here is highly questionable.
"I don't know what His Majesty means by sending such a person here. Maybe it's just a casual chess move." Ying Ziyi sighed. No one can really guess what this cheap guy is going to do.
"Your Highness, there is one more thing worth noting. The eldest son Fusu has been very close to Prime Minister Li Si in recent days, and even Zhao Gao has begun to stretch out his paws uneasily."
Ying Ziyi smiled, it was really strange for Ying Ziyi that these three people could come together. Historically, it was Zhao Gao and Li Si who conspired to usurp Fusu's throne. But now, because of his own pressure, there is a faint tendency for these three to form an alliance.
Once these three form a political alliance, it will be a powerful force that even the prince Ying Ziyi cannot ignore.
Fusu is the eldest son, and if nothing happens, Ying Ziyi will inherit the throne. As long as he does not rebel in the future, he may not be able to escape the position of Zongzheng. Zong Zheng is in charge of all the descendants of the clan named Ying.
One represents the clan, one is the prime minister and represents most of the civil servants in the court, and one lives in the inner palace and is in charge of the Zhongche Mansion. Once these three are united, they become a force that can isolate the inside and outside.
Of course you can say, these are nothing in front of the barrel of a gun. But don't forget, the barrel of the gun in Ying Ziyi's hand is not as big as Brother Zheng's!
"Your Highness, should we start counterattack before this alliance is formed and completely defeat this potential threat?"
"No need." Ying Ziyi stopped him: "This alliance should not be formed, at least on the surface."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince means...!" Chen Ping could vaguely guess at the meaning of Ying Ziyi's words.
"That's right, as long as Emperor Qin does not die, this political alliance will not be truly formed. Whether it is Li Si or Zhao Gao, the source of their power is ultimately the trust and favor of Emperor Qin. Without this premise, then they will not be able to compete with Qin. If they are in the middle, they are nothing. Both of them are smart people, and they naturally know what the consequences will be once this powerful political alliance that can isolate the inside and outside is formed."
That must have aroused the thunderous wrath of Emperor Qin. Which emperor could tolerate a power that could threaten his power and position so close to his bed, let alone Brother Zheng. Don't look at the fact that Brother Zheng is very kind to Li Si's family, and even let his daughter marry into Li Si's house and become Li Si's daughter-in-law. But once Li Tonggu makes a mistake and dares to do such a thing, he will not be far from annihilation.
Think about the old prime minister of Qin, Wen Xinhou Lu Buwei. He single-handedly helped Brother Zheng ascend to the position of King of Qin. There are even rumors that Brother Zheng is the illegitimate son of Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji. In the end, it wasn’t just a glass of poisoned wine that ended the problem, let alone Li Si.
I have to say that Brother Zheng's political balance has always been very good. Regardless of whether in the court or in the army, there are several vague factions that are not dominant, but they can work together under the guidance of Brother Zheng to serve the empire.
Even if Ying Ziyi is the crown prince, it is the same. Although Ying Ziyi was very influential in the army, his foundation in the court was weak.
Of course, as an excellent prince of the Qin Kingdom and a good son of Brother Zheng, the most important thing is that he is a villain who is well versed in the principles of evil and evil. Ying Ziyi didn't have the guts to challenge Brother Zheng's authority.
Being a prince under the command of an eternal emperor like Brother Zheng, Ying Ziyi couldn't do anything without pretending to be a coward.
"Your Highness, I believe that we cannot take such a potential threat lightly."
Ying Ziyi nodded, Chen Ping's worries were justified. In another world, Zhao Gao took advantage of Brother Zheng's death while searching for the elixir of immortality, and conspired with Li Si to disrupt the Qin Dynasty.
"Chen Ping, do you know what Li Si said about himself in the past?"
"Your Highness is saying, a rat in a hamster?"
"That's right."
Li Si once said to people, I would rather be a rat in the hamster than a rat in the toilet. The mice in the barn live in a high house with wide walls to protect them from wind and rain, and they eat the best food. As for the rat in the toilet, the end will be much more miserable.
"Your Highness means..."
"This is a good breakthrough." Ying Ziyi said with a smile.
Based on the understanding of Ying Ziyi and later generations, Li Si is a very self-aware person. As the head of Legalism, Li Si was Han Fei's disciple and Xunzi's disciple, it goes without saying that he was talented. He compares himself to a rat in a hamster. For him, glory, wealth, power and status are the most important. Ying Ziyi died on his own, which is why after the death of Qin Shihuang, Li Si disobeyed the emperor's last edict and conspired with Zhao Gao to abolish Fusu and establish Hu Hai.
Fusu had never liked Li Si very much, but put more emphasis on the Montessori brothers. Once Fusu succeeds to the throne, Li Si's status as prime minister will definitely not be guaranteed.
To a certain extent, Ying Ziyi is to Li Si just like Fusu is to Li Si in another world.
Ying Ziyi did not value Legalism, or in other words, he did not value Legalism as much as the Manchu Legalist elite expected. All the civil and military officials in Xianyang City know this.
Therefore, the attitude of the Legalists towards this prince was also ambiguous. Li Si is the leader of the law enforcement family and the eldest brother of all the Legalist officials in the court. It is strange that he likes Ying Ziyi.
However, Ying Ziyi is not Fusu!
Li Si and Zhao Gao forced Fusu to commit suicide with an edict, and Meng Tian tied himself up in Xianyang and died unjustly. I remember that at that time, Meng Tian Fusu had 300,000 Great Wall troops in his hands, who were all the elites of the Qin army. They wanted to abolish the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, but it was just a thought. Regardless of Fusu Mengtian's thoughts at the time, whether he was afraid or did not want to split the Qin State, they maintained the stability of the Qin State to the greatest extent. If it weren't for Zhao Gao, the second-fifth son, and Hu Hai, the second-generation ancestor, Qin would not have fallen to that fate in the end.
But Ying Ziyi is different. Ying Ziyi expected that as a big villain, he wanted to deal with his brother with just a broken edict? It would be strange if he didn't go south to Guanzhong, overthrow Xianyang, and plunder the home of Li Si and Zhao Gao.
Among this triangle, Li Si seems to have the highest power, the largest position, and the strongest ability, but he is actually the one who is easiest to break through.
There is no other reason than greed for power and position. Compared with the natural hostility between Fusu and Ying Ziyi, and the deep hatred between Zhao Gao and Ying Ziyi, Li Si is actually the easiest one to resolve.
"Your Highness, I have a suggestion." At this time, Chen Ping raised his head and looked at Ying Ziyi.
"Say it!"
"My subordinates heard that Li Tonggu has a daughter who is not yet married. If His Highness can report to His Majesty the First Emperor, the wife will be the Crown Princess. It may be possible to improve the relationship between Your Highness and the Legalists headed by Li Si, and even gain their support."
Regarding Chen Ping's strategy, Ying Ziyi was noncommittal. Marriage has been one of the means to improve relations between nobles since ancient times. However, it is also one of the most useless methods. To be fair, the royal relatives of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period are all related by blood. Maybe the aunt of a certain noble relative of one country is a female relative of a certain noble relative of another country, and even the royal family is no exception.
However, in the past hundreds of years, haven't the seven countries still been fighting what should be fought? The flags are rolling in the sky, and there is no peace for a day. Who has ever been so merciful to relatives they have never seen in several lifetimes?
At the critical moment, will Li Si side with Ying Ziyi for this daughter? Ying Ziyi was not sure at all.
"Okay! I will ask Xiao He to write a memorandum on this matter for me later and submit it to His Majesty the Emperor." Ying Ziyi finally agreed to Chen Ping's suggestion. No matter what, there is no harm in showing kindness to Li Si, and if you can win Li Si's support, it will be even better.
…
"Ying Ziyi doesn't plan to take the Fusang sacred tree and the three-legged Golden Crow from Shu Mountain!"
Xinghun's startled shout left everyone present in the Yin and Yang family speechless.
yes! In this battle of Shushan, the people of the Yin and Yang family played a great role. Just by wiping out the Yu Yuan guards in Shushan, the Yin Yang family lost a large number of elite disciples. But in the end, the Yin and Yang family got nothing, which is heartbreaking.
Luna lowered her head and focused her attention on the crystal ball in her hand. He and Xinghun were at opposite ends of the room, each moving and the other silent, forming a sharp contrast.
"Interesting, interesting, the stars are actually clearer."
"Could it be that the fortune of Prince Qin was divined by the Moon God?" Xinghun looked at the Moon God and said sarcastically. After all this time, the Moon God still has time to do divination?
Moon God smiled. Although Xinghun was young and mature, and the city was deep, compared with the Moon God who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, there was still something missing.
"Prince Qin's horoscope is still the same as before, chaotic and difficult to understand. However, the person I am divining is not Prince Qin, but Shushan."
"Shu Mountain?" The five elders looked at each other, not understanding what the Moon God meant.
Shushan has already been destroyed, why are you still doing divination? Even Xinghun looked puzzled.
"The stars indicate that Shushan has indeed declined to the extreme after this battle. But behind this, there is an extremely powerful force gestating. There is even a possibility that Shushan will prosper one day." Moon God said slowly.
Listening to what Moon God said, Xinghun also fell into deep thought, "Among Yu Yuan's guards, as far as I know, only one person escaped, and this woman entered Ying Ziyi's tent this morning. After he came out, he disappeared.”
"His Royal Highness Xinghun means that this woman has been taken as a concubine by Prince Qin. Does Shushan want to rely on this woman's pillow wind to become prosperous again?" Yun Zhongjun smiled, with a trace of amusement flashing across his face.
None of the senior officials of the Yin Yang Family present took Yun Zhongjun's joke seriously. There was even a look of disgust on Da Sima's face.
"Shu Mountain has always hidden an ancient secret. However, with the death of the elder who knew the inside story, this secret may have fallen on the missing girl."
"What do you mean, Your Majesty the Moon Goddess?" Yun Zhongjun said with a serious expression.
"Maybe Prince Qin's purpose is just for this secret."
"What kind of secret is this?" Xiang Jun asked.
"There are very few things that can affect this situation, but the secret of Shushan seems not to be among them."
"Oh, so Shushan wants to rely on this secret to rise again?" Yun Zhongjun said.
"Shushan, like my Yin Yang family, has ancient blood inheritance. Therefore, our Yin Yang family may not be able to use this secret." Yun Zhongjun shook his head, his eyes full of greed.
"The key lies in that girl. Who is she? And where is she?" Xinghun, who had been silent until now, said now.
"Ying Ziyi has hidden her. Even Emperor Qin would have a hard time knowing things or people that Prince Qin doesn't want people to know, let alone my Yin Yang family." Yueshen said slowly.
"What does Lord Moon God mean?" Xiangjun asked.
"The demise or rise of Shushan is ultimately just a small matter for the general trend of the world. My Yin Yang family has been implicated in the empire. So there is no need to worry whether Prince Qin will give us an explanation." Yue. After all, God is mature and prudent, so he said.
Before the Moon God finished speaking, the carriages and riders were commotion outside the tent.
The corner of Luna Goddess's mouth turned up into a nice arc, and he said, "Is it coming so soon?"
As the Moon God expected, Ying Ziyi's messenger brought gifts to appease the Yin and Yang family.
There are more than ten carts of gold and silver, and a cart of bamboo slips.
Moon God and Xinghun led the five elders of the Yin and Yang family out of the camp. Everyone's eyes focused on the cart of bamboo slips from the very beginning.
Although gold and silver are valuable, they are not a big deal to the people of the Yin Yang family.
As the old saying goes, knowledge is power. At the level of the upper echelons of the Yin Yang Family, this sentence is the best expression for them.
Only power is what the Yin Yang family pursues. And the gift from the Prince of Qin was naturally not an ordinary classic.
Moon God, Xinghun and the five elders thanked Ying Ziyi's messenger and took the cart of bamboo slips back to the camp.
Prince Qin’s handiwork is really great! Luna turned over a bamboo slip and exclaimed. All the classics left by the sages of the past dynasties in Shushan were sent over by Prince Qin.
