Qin Official

At the same time, in Panyu City, Nanhai County, after getting Ziying drunk at a banquet, Heifu summoned several aides who had expressed his feelings to him and held a small meeting.

Now the Qin army is completely in Lingnan, and is also guarding central Fujian. It occupies a vast area, and many cities have to be managed by separate people. Therefore, there are not many people left in Panyu. Today, the only one who can talk secretly with Heifu is Lu. Jia and Li Cang.

Li Xian, the father of Li Cang, had called Hei Fu his "lord" more than ten years ago. Hei Fu had stayed with him for two years, so he was undoubtedly trustworthy.

Although Lu Jia was a Confucian scholar with thick eyebrows and big eyes, when Yu Lin and Hei Fu were discussing the destiny of the dynasty, he said something like, "Today, the ways of the previous kings have been abolished, the opinions of hundreds of schools of thought have been banned, and there have been wars in the south and north, and there has been no peace for a day. So there is no peace for a day." There is turmoil both inside and outside, the people are in dire straits, those who have gone have not returned, those who have gone have not turned back, no one has a living, they are fleeing and following each other, they are all bandits... Qin's destiny is on the verge of collapse!"

This scholar from Chu who had no chance in the Qin Dynasty system has now become Heifu's trusted advisor.

"In the past few days, I have been insinuating about Ziying, and I even got drunk and asked, but Ziying seemed to know nothing. He only said that when he was in Changsha, he received an edict from Prince Cheng, the Marquis of Changwu in Jiangling... …”

Heifu paced with his hands behind his hands. He always felt that Qin Shihuang's order for him to go to Zhucheng, Hengshan County to accept the reward was a bit unusual.

"Li Cang, what do you think?"

Although Li Cang was young, he was somewhat resourceful. He thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I think this move of the imperial court is very strange!"

He said: "At the beginning of Lingnan, the generals of the three armies were stationed in various places. General Zhao Pi was stationed in Guilin, Uncle Tao and Lieutenant Xiao were stationed in Changsha Camp, my father was stationed in Yuzhang, Uncle An was stationed in Sanguan, Uncle Wu was stationed in Dongye City, and Uncle Gong was stationed in Dongyecheng. Stationed in Yulin, the remaining uncle Dongmen, Han Xin, Wu Chen, Mei Yuan, Chen Ying and others are with the king in Panyu."

Li Cang distributed all the officials under Heifu one by one. It can be said that the four newly-established Lingnan counties, Nanhai, Guilin, Minzhong, and Xiangjun, were all controlled by Heifu and his old party members.

"The safety of the entire Lingnan depends on the monarch. Now let the monarch go to Zhucheng and go back and forth for nearly three months. Lingnan has been initially decided. Without the coach, everything must be in chaos? If the court still cares about Lingnan, it will definitely not issue an order. This kind of order will send an envoy to reward you!"

Heifu pondered: "According to Ziying, during my absence, Ren Xiao can take over the defense of Lingnan..."

Fortunately, Heifu sent Ren Xiao, Xu Fu, and Wei Yang to explore the western sea area in advance. They were not in Panyu, so Ziying had no choice but to agree to wait a few more days, and Heifu delayed some time.

"I also think that this matter is extremely dangerous."

Although Lu Jia was a Confucian scholar, he was also good at persuasion. He immediately said to Hei Fu: "Have you ever heard of the ancient proverb, when the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden?"

"The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked?"

Heifu nodded and motioned for him to continue speaking.

Lu Jia said: "This happened after the war between Wu and Yue ended. When Fan Li saw that Yue had swallowed Wu and dominated the Jianghuai River, he left the country of Yue and left a letter to Dr. Zhong. The letter said that the king of Yue was a man with a long neck and a beak. You can share adversity with us, but you can’t share happiness with us.”

"After Wen Zhong read the letter, he didn't take it seriously. However, when someone slandered the King of Yue and said that Wen Zhong was going to cause chaos, Gou Jian gave Wen Zhong a sword. He said to him: 'The doctor taught me seven skills to destroy the country. Only three of them were used to annex the state of Wu. The remaining four were useless. Only three were used to destroy the state of Wu. There are still four methods left. You can send them to the late king on my behalf." So Wen Zhong suicide……"

After saying this, Lu Jia said: "There are almost no ministers who have made immortal contributions to the generals, hold heavy military power, and the king and ministers are good to each other! This time the emperor summoned the king to Zhu City, I am afraid he has no good intentions. Mr. If Hou goes ahead, he may repeat what happened to Wen Zhong, Bai Qi, and Li Mu!"

But Hei Fu shook his head and smiled: "Lu Sheng is worrying too much. How can my achievements be compared with Wen Zhong, Bai Qi, and Li Mu?"

He cupped his hands toward the north and said:

"And His Majesty the Emperor is not King Zhao of Qin, nor is he Gou Jian. He is a corporal and trustworthy in employing people, so he can achieve greater achievements than the two!"

"Wang Jian and his son destroyed five kingdoms, but the emperor could use them again and again, and he could enjoy his old age in peace no matter how bad things happened. Although I conquered the south and the north and made great achievements, but compared with it, it is nothing..."

In recent years, Heifu has been trying his best to hide his clumsiness and suppress himself. He has not done enough, and has given up the limelight of attacking the Xiongnu to Li Xin, and the limelight of conquering Haidong has been given to Fusu.

Therefore, in Heifu's opinion, he hid well and was not at all "powerful enough to shock the master". He had no idea why Qin Shihuang would attack him?

Heifu, who originally planned to watch the fire from the other side and wait for the changes, did not know that a series of changes in Xianyang had led to the raging flames...

Having said that, there is indeed no trust between people, especially between monarchs and ministers.

Lu Jia knows what he said. Han Xin, who helped him train troops in Panyu, is not the most typical example of "the enemy's country has been destroyed, his advisers have perished, the world has been settled, and I will definitely be the cook!" In history, did Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty use a similar method to capture Han Xin?

Heifu didn't want to be a lesson to Han Xin, let alone put his own wealth and life on the emperor's benevolent promise!

After Lu and Li retreated, he thought: "If I go, I will be waiting for an audience in Zhucheng. Qin Shihuang can easily order the warriors to capture me. It only requires the strength of one person."

"But if I don't go, it will be a disobedience and rebellion. The emperor can order the generals to attack them, and my family members in Xianyang and Nanjun will also suffer."

This is a bit of a dilemma, so what he needs most now is time, and he also needs to know more information about the north to judge the situation.

It's a pity that they were all delayed by the imperial court's 600-mile rush.

Fortunately, Ren Xiao had not returned yet, and Ziying did not dare to take over the military power tiger talisman. So, in late December, Heifu finally received a letter from the north...

From Jiaodong, a warning from Chen Ping!

…

The letter was written by Chen Ping two months ago. It took the sea route and arrived today.

In his letter, he told Heifu a piece of "news" that had only recently reached Lingnan.

"I heard that a meteorite fell from the sky in Dongjun, and it was engraved with the words 'The First Emperor died and the earth was divided'. The emperor is still here, but people's hearts have been moved. If the emperor leaves, the world will rebel..."

In response to possible future situations, Chen Ping gave Heifu some advice.

"Qin is unruly, and the world suffers. After the death of the First Emperor, the powerful officials of the Central Plains counties will raise an army and gather people to stand beside Qin and disrupt China."

"At this time, the prince controls Lingnan and has more than 100,000 troops. The South China Sea is far away, so the prince can raise troops and prepare his own troops. Panyu is burdened with dangerous mountains and blocks the South China Sea. It is thousands of miles from east to west. There are quite a few Chinese people to help. As the leader of a state, he can station his troops in the fields and train his troops to wait for the changes of the times. When the world is broken and exhausted, the princes will go north to the three passes, and the tigers will conquer the world, sweep the south of the Yangtze River, seize the south county, raise troops to enter the Wuguan Pass, and occupy Xianyang. Then big things can be decided!"

"Ping and Cao Shen can also respond to the princes in Jiaodong to provide support and help the princes to conquer the Central Plains!"

"At that time, the princes who advance can be Cheng Tang and Zhou Wu, and when they retreat, they can be Yi Yin and Zhou Gong..."

Heifu closed the letter and shook his head helplessly:

"Chen Ping, this pretty boy, is getting more and more courageous. Every word in the letter is enough for him to kill the three clans..."

However, Chen Ping's analysis of the situation was spot on and his prediction was almost perfect.

And the sentence "If you advance, you can become Cheng Tang and Zhou Wu, if you retreat, you can become Yi Yin and Zhou Gong", it even scratched the black man's itch!

The reason why he went south to lead his troops was to enrich his own wings without being able to change Qin Shihuang's style or manipulate the political situation.

Only with a sword in hand can you have the confidence to do things and re-establish order, relying on the barrel of a gun, not relying on words and waiting in vain, let alone pinning everything on a "good emperor" whose succession is hard to say.

But due to his identity, Heifu did not want to get involved with the anti-kings from various places who might appear in the future.

He was a Qin official, rising from pavilion chief to marquis step by step. He was a vested interest in the system. Morally, he also received the "favor" of Qin Shihuang. He was the Ming family and the gift. Little by little, he was infected. On Qin's deep black color.

Want to wash it off? Unless the skin is peeled off.

As for the situation, although the subordinates were mixed, the main elites were mostly "Qin people" in the broad sense, coming from Nanjun, Nanyang, and Guanzhong. The families of these tens of thousands of people stayed in various counties and counties, and were restricted by Qin laws and decrees. .

If you ask the soldiers, is the life of a family member more important, or is it the hair that Marquis Changnan cut off, the tombstones that he erected, and the meals that he pushed around?

For most people, the former is obviously more important.

Therefore, it is impossible for Hei Fu to be like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, risking the rebellion of his subordinates, risking the condemnation of the public opinion in Qin, foolishly rebelling to attract hatred, and pioneering for the king...

Due to his personality, Heifu's original idea was to sit on the army, watch the fire from the other side, and be Voldemort in Lingnan.

"You can make a world out of nothing!"

But although he is an old yinbi, he still has two bottom lines:

First, if the world is in chaos, we must strive to restore unity and order with minimal pain.

Secondly, it is up to him to decide what the future holds! Encountering Qin Shihuang, a strong leader who refused to listen to advice, Heifu was fed up with being constrained and fed up with being a paper framer! The New Deal, which will bring great order to the world and truly unify the country, must be decided by oneself before it can be implemented!

Unfortunately, a series of events shattered Heifu's wishful thinking.

Two days later, the latest news from Xianyang made Heifu unable to sit still.

That rumor still carries the cold chill of the north.

"Whoever destroys Qin is evil?"

"Although His Majesty cooked Lu Ao, my family's residence was also under surveillance. This news came through Zhang Cang?"

"Is this the real reason why the emperor asked me to go to Zhucheng to meet him during his southern tour!?"

It’s true that when a person is sitting at home, the pot comes from heaven!

Heifu shook his head, touched his face again, and then smiled:

"What a bunch of conspirators who are just worried about the world being in chaos. This pot is so fucking evil!"
