Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

In Xianyang Palace, King Yingzheng of Qin and Lord Yingwei of Chang'an were sitting opposite each other.

"Lu Buwei has returned to his fiefdom?"

Ying Zheng sat upright. He squinted his eyes slightly, and there seemed to be a fierce flash of light in his eyes. He asked in a low voice.

Ying Wei nodded:"Brother Wang, Lu Buwei left Xianyang yesterday, taking his The family members escorted them back to the fiefdom. Ying

Zheng was silent for a moment and said slowly:"Henan is a prosperous land. What contribution does Lu Buwei have to occupy such a large fiefdom?""

"The third brother's fiefdom is only Chang'an. How can he, Lu Buwei, occupy the twelve counties of Lantian, own one hundred thousand households in Luoyang, and enjoy fifteen cities in the river?"

To be honest, just hearing about the scope of this fiefdom is enough to impress people. Although the Qin State has separate fiefdoms and prefectures and counties, a monarch with such a huge fiefdom as Lu Buwei is unparalleled in the entire Qin State.

Even Ying Wei. Lord Chang'an, his fiefdom is only the area called Chang'an on the outskirts of Xianyang, but Lu Buwei can exclusively enjoy fifteen cities.

Especially the core of Lu Buwei's fiefdom is Luoyang, which is the absolute hinterland of the Central Plains. Everyone knows that Luoyang was the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, and the wealth in it can be imagined.

Just like the reason why Lu Buwei supported Gan Luo to lobby the King of Zhao before, it was to get the King of Zhao to give up the land in the Hejian area and give his own fiefdom Expand the scope.

Lu Buwei, who already knew that he had been swept away from the center of power, naturally thought about how to leave blessings for future generations.

Ying Wei was silent at this time.

Ying Zheng thought for a while and said:"440 Lu Buwei has no virtue and incompetence and cannot occupy With such an important land, Gu wants to move his family to Bashu. What does the third brother think?"

Ying Wei heard the words and muttered to himself, Bashu is also a land of abundance, and the land is fertile, especially the geographical environment is the most suitable for separatist rule.

Of course, Bashu can only be separatist to one side, and it is impossible to think of Shu land, especially this During that period, Bashu was not fully developed and was still a relatively desolate and barbaric place.

He nodded and said:"Yes! Ying

Zheng took a deep breath and ordered the eunuch serving behind him:"Bring me the edict!""

The eunuch Ling hurriedly took small steps and respectfully placed a piece of gorgeous silk on the table in front of Ying Zheng. At this time, all daily government affairs in the Qin State were handled with paper, and only when the King of Qin issued some important instructions, That is to say, when writing edicts, he would only use items such as silk and silk.

Ying Zheng picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and straightened his waist. Ying Zheng knew that with these few strokes, he would completely bury the man who had been his successor ever since. From the beginning, there was a huge pressure on his heart.

Ying Zheng was full of energy and put pen to paper. He did not hesitate and wrote a concise sentence in one go.

"What contribution did you make to Qin? Qin Fengjun Henan, fed 100,000 households!"

"Why are you so close to Qin? Known as Zhongfu!"

"He and his family moved to Shu!"

This sentence cannot be more simple. It is to ask what merits Lu Buwei has, how dare he live in a city of 100,000 households? What is the blood relationship between you and me, and you are called Zhongfu?

This sentence is vaguely referring to Lu Buwei and Ying Wei. For comparison, my third brother made great contributions to the Qin State, captured Korea, and formulated policies to unify the six countries. Moreover, my third brother did not seek power or fame, and even declined the position of prime minister.

I have made such great contributions to Qin. The third brother's fiefdom is only as large as Chang'an. How dare you, Lu Buwei, occupy fifteen cities?

And you and I are not related by blood. How dare you call yourself Father Zhong? The third brother and I are real brothers, Queen Mother Everyone agrees!

With Ying Wei's comparison, even others cannot say that the King of Qin is mean and ungrateful.

Although everyone knows that Lu Buwei actually made a lot of contributions to the Qin State, your contribution is so big as the fiefdom of Lord Chang'an. Too much, it is indeed a bit too much.

After writing this letter, Ying Zheng was very happy. He took his seal of King Qin and carved the seal on the silk and satin.

Then, Ying Zheng carefully rolled up the silk and satin. , and handed it over to Ying Wei solemnly:"Third brother, please go to Luoyang in person and hand this edict to Lu Buwei!"

Ying Wei also solemnly accepted the edict from King Qin and said solemnly:"Here!"

After the basic sense of ceremony was established, the solemnity on Ying Zheng's face disappeared, and he said with concern:"Lu Buwei has been operating in Luoyang for many years. Gu Yi has had people investigate. He has some private soldiers."

"Although I don’t think Lu Buwei would ignore his family and do anything to his third brother, but he is old and might have done something wrong in a daze and regret it later."

"Moreover, Lu Buwei was not prepared to jump over the wall in a hurry, so the third brother made preparations before going to Luoyang.

Ying Wei pondered for a moment and said,"Brother Wang, don't worry, I'm always cautious in doing things.""

"Before going to Luoyang, I will ask Li Xin to mobilize part of Xinzheng's Pingyang heavy armor army to move to Luoyang. At the same time, I will ask Li Xin to send three thousand guards to escort me to Luoyang."

After conquering Korea, Ying Wei asked Li Xin to lead the army to station in Xinzheng, the old capital of Korea, which is now Yingchuan County of Qin State.

After conquering Korea, that area bordered Zhao, Wei and Chu, and Xinzheng was the Central Plains. Naturally, there must be a large army stationed in the hinterland, and it is also a rival to Wang Ben's army in the south.

Ying Wei can also directly send troops from Xianyang to protect himself in Luoyang, but Xianyang is too far away from Luoyang, so it would be too wasteful to send three thousand troops to protect him. Wasted.

But Xinzheng is different. It is more than a hundred kilometers away from Luoyang. When the time comes, troops will be mobilized from Xinzheng to protect themselves and go to Luoyang.

Although Lu Buwei has thousands of private soldiers, his private soldiers want to fight against Qin. On the battlefield, the elites of the Qin State who have made great contributions cannot be compared to the outstanding achievements in battle.

Especially Lu Buwei, although he has private soldiers, he will never dare to hoard armor and weapons. If those things are discovered, the whole family will undoubtedly die.

And when the weapons are crushed, With his absolute advantage, three thousand soldiers are enough to kill an enemy ten times his size, and they can still kill him easily.

Ying Wei never puts himself in danger. He lives a new life, enjoys great wealth, and has a long life. , of course he was afraid of death!

When Ying Zheng saw that Ying Wei had made a plan, he was relieved and started chatting with him about military affairs.

……

When Ying Wei returned to the house from Xianyang Palace, he learned from Dong Jun and Jing Sala that Zi Nu had returned with Yan Lingji.

Ying Wei thought that it was just right. When he went to Luoyang this time, he could take Zi Nu with him.

After all, Capricorn was the one who later joined him. Within a few years, Ying Wei couldn't trust him completely. The main reason was that Capricorn worked for Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei in the past.

Secondly, Ying Wei did not participate in the initial establishment of the intelligence organization of Lin Yi Ke. It was just used. Ying Wei also needed to balance the power of the people below.

Ying Wei is planning to hand over all Luo Wang's intelligence organizations to Zi Nu's management. Only by running the two systems at the same time can everything be worry-free.

"I'll go to Zilanxuan in the evening. Feiyan, you and Jing Salamander can wait at home."

Ying Wei said to Dong Jun and Jing Salamander.

As Dongjun's first wife, it is still inconvenient for her to go to places like Zilanxuan.

Xiao Yan'er also needs Jing Salamander to accompany her at home, and it is difficult for her to go out.

Now I can only go to Zilanxuan alone. Besides, when Zinu and Yanlingji come back, there may be a heart-wrenching battle tonight.
