My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

In the eighth year of the Qin Dynasty, August 8th.

After two and a half months, a major court meeting was held again in the main hall of Xianyang Palace.

Tingwei Xiong Mao shouted loudly:

"Pass, Lord Chang'an comes to the palace!"

The court guards spread Xiong Mao's words all the way outside the palace through word of mouth:

"Pass, Lord Chang'an comes to the palace!"

With a loud shout, Ying Chengyu handed over the Qin sword and halberd to the palace guards for safekeeping, and stepped into the palace wearing a general's armor and a round helmet.

Walking all the way to the high platform of the main hall, Ying Chengyu suddenly raised his hands and spoke loudly:

"The last general is Ying Cheng, and I pay my respects to the king!"

Looking at Ying Chengyu wearing a helmet and whipping armor, Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with relief and he exclaimed:

"Brother Wang is really brave!"

Ying Chengyu bowed his hand and saluted:

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng leaned forward slightly and asked worriedly.

"Brother Wang, are you ready?"

Ying Chengyu responded solemnly.

"The general has prepared his troops and is ready to fight for the king at any time!"

Ying Zheng stood up happily and praised loudly:

"Very good!"

"Today, my brother Wang is taking our Da Qin soldiers out to fight. It is to fight for our Da Qin."

"I am responsible for sending my brother ten miles away to support my brother's journey!"

Lu Buwei:? ? ?

Why are you here all of a sudden?

Do you know how chaotic it is outside now?

Why don't you go out of the city ten miles to see each other off? I thank you on behalf of the assassin!

Lu Buwei quickly stopped him:

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate."

"In our Qin Dynasty, there has never been a king who sent ten miles away for a general's march!"

Ying Zheng showed obvious hesitation, and after a few seconds he looked at Lu Buwei sincerely:

"There is a saying in "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals": Therefore, those who are good at being kings will obey the sentiments of life and death, and all the officials have been governed, the head of Guizhou has been married, and the name has been sealed."

"Father Zhong, you have said in your book: Those who are good at being a monarch should carefully maintain their true nature, so that hundreds of officials can govern, the head of Guizhou can be attached to him, and his reputation can be prominent."

"Father Zhong, I really want to send off my brother Wang and the soldiers. This is my true nature!"

Lu Buwei was greatly surprised:

"Your Majesty is already reading the chapter "Don't Bow"?"

Lu Buwei was extremely surprised.

According to his teaching arrangement, Ying Zheng should be reading "Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals: Xian Shi Lan" now. Why did Ying Zheng directly quote the sentence "Don't Gow" in "Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals?"?

Could it be that Ying Zheng is taking the initiative to study or even preview "Lu's Spring and Autumn"?

Is this child so eager to learn now?

Ying Zheng nodded obediently in response:

"I have been familiar with "Xian Shi Lan" in the past ten days, and now I am reading "Li Su Lan"."

"What Zhongfu wrote is that there are many people who don't understand it."

"However, Father Zhong has been increasingly busy recently, and I don't want to disturb Father Zhong, so I understand on my own that there may be some bias."

Lu Buwei laughed heartily:

"good!"

"Very good!"

"Your Majesty already has the image of a benevolent king!"

Although Lu Buwei has always regarded Ying Zheng as a puppet, Lu Buwei has never thought about usurping the throne, let alone killing Ying Zheng.

With his political wisdom, it is not difficult to imagine that his current actions are very dangerous, and will make Ying Zheng hate him so much that he will probably kill his entire family once he gains power!

So what is he planning?

One, of course, is power. Lu Buwei desires and enjoys power.

The second is to realize his ideal, change the rule of law of the Great Qin to the rule of people first, the rule of law as a supplement, the monarch is inactive, and have the characteristics of Lu Buwei, and then help the Great Qin to swallow up the six countries, and then upgrade the way of governing the Great Qin to The way to rule the world!

In order to achieve this goal, Lu Buwei compiled "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" and revised "Qin Code" to delay Ying Zheng's time to take charge of the government, and even worked harder to educate Ying Zheng.

Unfortunately, Da Qin's Legalist philosophy is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it cannot be changed in a few years.

Lu Buwei is already in his fifties and may die at any time, and his reforms may stop at any time because of his death.

Fortunately, Ying Zheng is only twenty-one years old, rising like the rising sun.

The best future envisioned by Lu Buwei is for Ying Zheng's thoughts to completely change into the shape of Lu Buwei.

Ying Zheng accepted a series of requirements for restraining the monarchy in "Lu Shi Chun Qiu", such as appointing talents, choosing prime ministers, knowing people, and accepting remonstrances. Lu Buwei was able to continue to maintain most of his rights. The monarch and his ministers worked together to reform and change the world!

For a long time, Lu Buwei felt that this idea was just a dream, or even a delusion.

But the attitude shown by Ying Zheng today gave Lu Buwei hope.

Lu Buwei couldn't wait to urge him sincerely:

"Your Majesty, please remember that no matter how busy your ministers are, your Majesty can always come and ask if you have any questions."

"What I have done is nothing compared to the King's learning!"

“Don’t lose the big for the small!”

Ying Zheng quickly handed over his hand:

"No one knows it!"

"Then, what do you want me to do for my brother Zhuangxing?"

Lu Buwei avoided this question and just advised him gently:

"Truth never stands alone."

“Just as the rule of virtue should be supplemented by the rule of law, inaction requires action.”

"There is a saying in "Chongji": A wise man does not observe what he calls, but observes what he calls."

"It means: Disasters do not come for no reason, but are caused by people's actions. Therefore, the monarch should cultivate his morality to carry out the Tao, and pay special attention to the causes of disasters."

Ying Zheng was thoughtful:

"As Mencius said: Is that why those who know destiny don't stand under a rock wall?"

Lu Buwei nodded happily:

"Of course!"

"The world is in chaos today. It has only been two years since the Five Kingdoms conquered Qin. All countries are still eyeing our Great Qin. It is not safe outside Xianyang City. This is a rock wall!"

"If the king leaves the city to see you off, he will be standing under the rock wall, which will bring disaster."

Ying Zheng nodded in sudden realization, brought the topic back, and asked sincerely.

"What do you think, Father Zhong, I should do?"

Lu Buwei did not want Ying Zheng to leave the palace.

Lu Buwei can be sure that someone among the Korean relatives must want to assassinate Ying Zheng!

Once Ying Zheng dies, the throne will be in suspense, and both Ying Chengyu and Ying Fusu will have a chance.

But they do have a chance, but Lu Buwei, who has secured the position of prime minister because of his identity as Ying Zheng Zhong's father, has no chance, let alone realize any ideals.

However, Lu Buwei also didn't want to dampen Ying Zheng's enthusiasm for learning. This was the first time Ying Zheng had learned "Lu's Spring and Autumn" and applied it. He couldn't let Ying Zheng return without success, right?

After a little thought, Lu Buwei came up with a compromise:

"Your Majesty, please send Lord Chang'an to the city gate."

"Now that the army has gathered outside the city, the king can also review the whole army and the brotherhood at the city gate."

Ying Zheng was overjoyed and handed over his hand.

"Thank you, Xiangbang!"

Immediately, Ying Zheng quickly stepped off the platform, grabbed Ying Chengxuan's arm, and shouted with joy:

"Brother Wang, I will send you out of the city to make a strong trip for you!"

Ying Chengyu smiled brightly:

"This is a blessing for all the soldiers in the army!"

Seeing the two brothers holding hands and walking out, Lu Buwei couldn't help but smile and murmured softly:

"After all, you are still a child at heart."

Standing up, Lu Buwei looked at the ministers and spoke loudly:

"My colleagues, Your Majesty personally sends Lord Chang'an to prepare for the expedition. This is the act of a benevolent Lord."

"As ministers, we should accompany you and protect the king!"

All the courtiers immediately handed over their hands:

"I just want to go together!"

They wanted to come together, but Ying Zheng didn't want to take them with him.

Instructing Meng Tian to lead his servants around him, Ying Zheng isolated Lu Buwei and others from himself.

After confirming that there were no outsiders around, Ying Chengyu smiled and teased:

"Use Yudi's expedition as an opportunity to win the favor of the prime minister."

"Brother Wang, you have to make up for it!"
