Fish swimming around the world

Gong Yu's eyes flashed: "But Your Majesty, what Mr. Shi said is right, we need to be more cautious. After all, we don't have many opportunities to take action..."

Ying Pei looked gloomy and remained silent for a moment before saying, "That makes sense. Although Shi Jiao is an old thief, he has some ideas that are feasible. You can arrange them as soon as possible."

Gong Yu said: "So, the Supreme Emperor, what we planned before..."

Ying Pei smiled coldly: "Of course... act according to the plan!"

Gong Yu lowered her head: "I obey the order."

…

Mortal residence.

Ba Qing held the elixir in his hand, but did not feed it to Jiang Xiaoyu, which made the latter very dissatisfied and jumped around on the water in front of her. However, she seemed to be deep in thought and did not pay attention at all.

"My good disciple, why are you so entranced?"

An old man's voice finally brought her back to reality.

"Master? Don't you always go to consult with your old friends? Why are you back so soon?"

The visitor was naturally Ba Qing's master, Zou Yan of the Yin Yang family.

Zou Yan laughed and said: "I really went to discuss Taoism, but the person who didn't want to be introduced was not his disciple, but actually himself. So I discussed it on the spot at Luoyanpo."

"Oh, I see, your old friend is sincere."

Zou Yan said slowly: "I am sincere...but I don't know why I am sincere."

Ba Qing was stunned: "Master, why did you say this?"

Zou Yan said: "It's quite strange to see an old friend this time. This person's popularity is erratic and uncertain. It seems that... his life is not long."

Ba Qing asked: "Could it be that the end is coming?"

Zou Yan pondered for a moment: "As an old friend, it's hard to presume to deduce, but in this situation, either the end is approaching, or it is contaminated by luck, and the future is unpredictable."

Ba Qing asked doubtfully: "Didn't you ask?"

Zou Yan sighed: "As an old friend, I care about him, but he was vague and arrogant. This discussion did not involve much knowledge."

Ba Qing was very surprised: "May I ask, who is Master's old friend?"

Zou Yan said slowly: "Zhajia, give me a hand."

…

After the confused and confused Old Master Zou left, Ba Qing stood there with his eyes flashing, thinking for a long time, and suddenly threw the pills in his hand into the lake. Looking at the happy Jiang Xiaoyu, the corners of his lips raised a sharp edge.

"Ying Pei, you think you can do whatever you want when the prince is not around. This time... it's time for you to repay me, Ba Qing..."

Then, she turned around and ordered: "Here, prepare the car, Lishan."

Ba Qing, who was in a hurry, came to Lishan and found Zhang Zhiling in the Governor's Mansion.

"My Lord Governor, I would like to speak with you alone."

Zhang Zhiling was immersed in studying the layout of Lishan Mountain. Hearing this, he put down the magnifying glass in his hand, looked at her, smiled slightly, and ordered the others to retreat.

"Mr. Ba, why are you looking for me?"

Ba Qing stepped forward and gave a brief salute: "Qing, I have something to ask, and I would like the governor to make it clear."

Zhang Zhiling said, "Please speak."

Ba Qing stared at him and said, "May I ask the governor if he only cares about Lishan affairs?"

Zhang Zhiling looked indifferent and said, "I only care about my disciple's affairs."

Ba Qing smiled slightly: "So, Ba Qing understands in his heart that this time, he just wants to talk about your disciple, my lord."

She said seriously: "In today's world, there are hundreds of schools of thought, and one of them is trying to accommodate the leader of the hundreds of schools. Can the Governor hear about it?"

Zhang Zhiling asked, "Could it be that old guy Shi Jiao is out to cause trouble?"

Ba Qing said: "Why can't you be his disciple?"

Zhang Zhiling laughed and said, "You, this little boy, are just like my disciples, you always mean something in your words."

"Ba Qing doesn't dare, but I really want to ask you to clarify this matter."

Zhang Zhiling brushed his beard and said: "Shi Jiao founded the Miscellaneous Family and had two disciples. One of them, Lord Shang, and the other, Mr. Lu, both died. If he still wants to cause trouble, I am afraid that he, the ancestor, will be the only one to leave the mountain."

Ba Qing nodded, and then said seriously: "But the Governor may not know something. Ba Qing has followed the Supreme Emperor for several years, but he knows that he has a new disciple..."

Zhang Zhiling's expression changed: "...Ying Pei, has he fallen to this?"

Ba Qing said: "The governor is highly intelligent, but Qing can't figure it out, and that's exactly what he wants to ask for advice. Why did Shi Jiao accept such a disciple when he was about to die, and why did Ying Pei want to worship Shi Jiao as his disciple?"

Zhang Zhiling smiled and said, "Good question."

"Don't you think it's the same problem?"

Zhang Zhiling said: "Yes and no, that's a good question."

Ba Qing said: "Please give me some advice from the governor."

Zhang Zhiling thought for a while and said: "You know the inside story better than me. But what you want to ask is the original intention. I will tell you the original intention. Shi handed over and accepted the disciples precisely because he was about to die. Both disciples died, and they died in Qin.”

Ba Qing nodded: "Shang Jun's car was broken up, and Lu Fu hanged himself. They all died in Qin. Shi Jiao and Qin Zong are not as deep as the sea, but they will never be inseparable. This apprentice is so strange."

Zhang Zhiling said: "Although they died, they are different. Everyone thinks that Shang Jun died at the hands of King Hui, and Lu Fu died at the hands of the empress. However, Shang Jun did not die at the hands of King Hui, and this matter is not known to anyone. "

Ba Qing said: "At that time, you were the right minister of the Qin State, so you must know some inside information."

Zhang Zhiling sighed: "Although Shang Jun values ​​​​the law, he comes from the Za family, which is very unpleasant. But he found the best way out for the Za family. At that time, King Hui was very talented and had great strategies, and he recruited heroes from all over the world. Shang Jun was among them. One of them was highly valued, and the Za family became very popular in Qin. Many of his disciples became generals and ministers, forming a huge force that even dominated the Qin government and the public for a time. Lu Fu was one of them. "

Ba Qing nodded: "Ba Qing also knows about this, but that Shang Jun finally rebelled and was eventually killed."

Zhang Zhiling said: "This is what makes people sigh. In fact, Lord Shang never rebelled. He only promoted the rule of law, which touched countless interest groups and was attacked by them. Seeing the turmoil in the court, Lord Shang was willing to taint himself and secretly asked for favors. King Hui broke up his car to calm the situation and preserve the law. King Hui was grief-stricken, but he had to act according to his plan. When King Shang died generously, he promoted King Xiang to be the crown prince, and he became the current Supreme Emperor Wen. ”

Only then did Ba Qing become moved: "It's so, no wonder Shi Jiao is not evil."

"Yes, precisely because Lu Fu did die in the hands of the empress, she became the common enemy of Shi Jiao and Ying Pei. Therefore, Shi Jiao is naturally close to Ying Pei."

"This is the reason for accepting a disciple, so what is the reason for Yingpei to become a disciple?"

Zhang Zhiling said: "The reason for accepting disciples is one of them, but it is not comprehensive. If it is as I think, Ying Pei does not want to be a disciple of a miscellaneous family. After all, Qin Chief values ​​the law. If he really does this, and he needs to get rid of the vested interests aspects to consider.”

Ba Qing nodded lightly: "The governor has great views and has vested interests. What can he get? The first to bear the brunt should be the Zajia family's huge resources in the Qin State. The Zajia disciples have served as prime ministers twice, and there are countless ministers and nobles. However, the empress killed the Zajia family for these They are hated by others, and Yingpei, who has a closer relationship with them and is the enemy of the empress, is of course the best choice.”
