Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 213 Ying Zichu

After Qin Prince Chu succeeded to the throne,
The ambition and fangs that had been suppressed deep in the heart and dared not be revealed were finally exposed.

For this supreme position,
He betrayed the mother who gave birth to him.
Abandoned his first wife!

right now,

He can finally realize his ambitions!

He also appointed Lu Buwei as prime minister, and he also achieved a class leap.

From a businessman who could be emptied at will by nobles, he suddenly became the prime minister of the most powerful country in the world!
He therefore sighed, "Seeking the country's wealth and establishing the country's leader, I have won countless things!"

Fortunately,
When he almost missed the opportunity to be close to Ying Zichu, he chose to support Ying Zheng and his mother.

This was another successful investment.

There is no need to mention Zhao Ji.

The performance of Prince Zheng really surprised him.

This clever child took advantage of the little guilt in the King of Qin's heart and became his most beloved son, with his position being unshakable.

This,

Naturally, this also means that

He successfully invested in two generations of Qin Kings!

Such a huge reward is enough for Lu Buwei to eat to death!
Subsequently,

Lu Buwei and Ying Zichu, a pair of "merchants and rare goods" who hit it off in Zhao State, joined forces to launch an attack on the world.

In the first year of the reign of King Qin,

He ordered Meng Ao to attack Han and forced Han to cede Chenggao, Gong and other places.

The territory of Qin extended to the vicinity of Daliang in Wei, and the King of Wei was extremely terrified.

Two years,

He also ordered Meng Ao to attack Zhao and Wei, and captured more than 40 cities from the two countries.

Year 3, April

Because the new king of Qin had such a strong desire for aggression, the princes were forced to unite again. Prince Xinling of Wei presided over the alliance and led a large army to counterattack Qin as far as Hangu Pass.

Although the King of Wei dismissed Lord Xinling from his post due to his plot to sow discord and the coalition was dissolved again, the King of Qin was still furious at the setback suffered by Qin.

Lu Buwei didn't dare to say anything more in front of the King of Qin, not even to comfort him.

Because the person who had previously comforted the monarch was considered by Ying Zichu to be "a mocker of me" and was put in prison.

And this person,

It just happened to be an illegal resident who had close ties with Lu Buwei.

……

Although Lu Buwei had
It is true that the king has been a bit radical in launching wars eastward every year since he ascended the throne, but he is not as honest as Heihu.

He dared not advise the monarch.
I dare not defend my friend.

He could only wait silently for Ying Zichu's anger to subside, and then find a way to speak well of the black household and get him out of jail.

just,

He couldn't wait until Ying Zichu's anger subsided.

The King of Qin, who had been patient for too long, suddenly came to power and wished that there was no more thing in the world that he could endure.

In this world,
What does he want to do?
What to do!
Especially the Six Nations!
Especially Zhao State!
"Humph!"

The King of Qin poured himself another glass of wine and drank it down in one gulp.

Meiji beside him said worriedly, "My lord, you have drunk too much in the past few days!"

"My army just suffered a setback outside Hangu Pass. Do I have to be criticized for drinking a little?"

The King of Qin pushed the beautiful girl away and embraced the new one.

The new baby swallow in my arms is more lovely than the previous one.

Seeing that the king was in a bad mood, she just gently picked up the food and held up the wine, letting the king enjoy it.

Let us all get rid of all worries in this boundless enjoyment!

The King of Qin laughed heartily and continued to drink the intoxicating wine.

Seeing this, Lü Buwei
He could only shake his head and put on a smile, being careful not to offend the King of Qin.

After waiting for the King of Qin to finish his banquet,
Lu Buwei first went to get some fresh air to regain some consciousness, and then he slipped into the prison to visit the dirty and dusty black household huddled in the corner.

When Lü Buwei came to see him,
This guy is catching a mouse.

It was tied up with straw ropes and hung on the wall as an ornament.

The mouse squeaked in pain due to his torture, thinking that it was so unlucky that it met a pervert when it went out to look for food today!
Lu Buwei also despised him, "I thought you were suffering in prison, who knew you had time to do such a thing!"

Heihu chuckled and said, "I can't get out for a while anyway, what's the point of feeling sorry for myself all day long?"

"Not many people come to see me, so am I not allowed to amuse myself with a mouse?"

"Your son doesn't come to see you?"

"What is he doing here?" the black household asked directly, "Is he here to watch his father suffer?"

"I'm afraid he might get lice from here and pass them on to the prince!"

After the status of Crown Prince Zheng was established,

In order to make up for his son, the King of Qin selected many companions for him to serve as his future helpers.

Heihu's son Heizhuang was about the same age as Crown Prince Zheng, so he was naturally selected.

This boy, with his straightforward personality similar to his father, became one of the few people who could get close to Prince Zheng.

After all, there are not many people who dare to take Prince Zheng to play ball as soon as they meet.

Will this disrespectful son offend the crown prince one day, causing the king to punish him?
As a result, although Prince Zheng's face was not very good, he was not too angry.

Hei Zhuang privately told his old father, "The prince is just feeling depressed and doesn't want to show it outside!"

"do not worry!"

"I have always been the leader of the children in this area. Don't I know how to play with children?"

Kuroto sighed, looking at his son's innocent enthusiasm, and finally said nothing more.

Prince Zheng,
You can tell at first glance that he is a very precocious person.
If he succeeds to the throne in the future, he will definitely be a powerful and capable monarch.

Hei Zhuang can now rely on shamelessness to be his friend, but can he maintain this friendship in the future?

But judging from Prince Zheng's experience, if the undocumented person tried to stop his son from interacting with him, it would probably only irritate his devastated heart.

then,

There is nothing we can do about the illegal residents.

At worst, when my son grows up, I will send him to the small ancestral fiefdom, and then rely on his friendship with the new King of Qin in his youth to live a life of idleness and wait for death!
But Lu Buwei only felt that getting to know the next monarch and making long-term investments was a very profitable thing.

Because he had once "eloped to Qin" with Ying Zichu, Lu Buwei, who was slippery by nature and good at observing other people's moods, could feel that Prince Zheng had some grudges against him.

When he helped the mother and son regain their official status, it was just because they both needed something, and it was not a big favor.

The ones who truly persuaded our late king to temporarily put aside his love for Lady Huayang and focus on the future of Qin were Bai Qi, Marquis of Wu'an, and Fan Sui, Marquis of Ying.

And these two people,
He was invited by an illegal immigrant.

therefore,

Lu Buwei also intended to use his dealings with the Hei family to improve his relationship with Crown Prince Zheng.

"Alas, if Wu Anjun were still here..."

Seeing that Heihu was still playing with the poor mouse, Lu Buwei couldn't help but say something.

Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an who fought throughout his life and was hailed as the "God of Killing", died of old age at the beginning of last year. Before his death, he had been bedridden for many years and could hardly get up.

If he were alive today,
How could the Qin State endure such a great defeat?
"So what if I'm still here?"

"Mr. Wu'an is not in good health. I don't need to trouble him with such a small matter!"

Black households know,

Relying on the relationship between his son and Crown Prince Zheng, and with Lu Buwei's mediation, he would definitely not die.

in this way,

Why should we make more people worry?

"I'm just worried that after I go to jail, the business route will be interfered with!"

The Western Trade Route is a treasure that attracts money.

Since many years ago, many people have been targeting me.

For the sake of greater benefits, they naturally launched a series of attacks on the Hei father and son, trying to take this "overly lucrative" position into their own hands.

But Hefu had the merit of saving King Wu, so King Zhao trusted him very much.

The illegal residents are honest and never give others a chance.

The father and son are stuck in this position, making many people angry.

Now the blacks are in jail.

Naturally, someone has to take action.

"Especially the Queen..."

"She has always wanted her father to intervene in this matter!"

The nobles in Qin were not satisfied with the fat meat, and after Zhao Ji became queen, she still wanted to bring in people from Zhao.

Is this reasonable?

Is there any brain in this?
Why should others touch the treasure pot of the Qin nobles?
However, Zhao Ji gave the order with confidence, thinking that as the queen, her power was unlimited.

When Lü Buwei heard Hei Hu say this,

Also followed silence.

What exactly is the structure of Zhao Ji's brain? This is something that makes people like them very curious.

of course,

They were even more surprised
With Zhao Ji's amazing wisdom, she was able to give birth to a child like Crown Prince Zheng? !
For this,

Who wouldn’t say that the Qin royal family’s bloodline is reliable?
“…That’s all!”

"Since you are not in a hurry, I will go back first!"

After chatting for a while, Lu Buwei said to the black household who was still torturing the mouse.

Heihu waved his hand nonchalantly, "Go ahead!"

then,

Lu Buwei returned home.

In the dead of night,
