My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 331 What old man can stand up to you?

Ying Chengyu's voice drew a picture in Lu Buwei's mind.

Ying Zheng, who was sixty or seventy years old, with gray temples and wrinkles on his face, finally devoted his whole life to leading the Qin Dynasty to fight in all directions, wipe out Liuhe, and hold the world in his hands.

But what awaits him is not the prosperous age he imagined, and what greets him is not recuperating and letting his horse go to Nanshan.

From people's livelihood, people's hearts, money and food to systems, this huge empire is full of omissions and flaws, and is on the verge of collapse.

The problems predicted by Lu Buwei broke out one after another!

The people in the capital of Guizhou are in dire straits, so the remnants of the six kingdoms are ready to take action, and all parts of the world are rising up!

The aging Ying Zheng had to drag his decaying body to seek ways to govern the country, but in the end he only found the outdated "Lu Spring and Autumn" in the pile of old books.

The changes in the world situation made "Lu's Spring and Autumn" no longer suitable for that era.

But Ying Zheng had no choice.

He could only hold "Lu's Spring and Autumn" close to his cheek, read it word by word with cloudy presbyopic eyes, and then use the methods of governing the country prepared by Lu Buwei for the troubled Qin Dynasty to govern the world after unification.

He didn't even dare to die!
  He was afraid that after his death he would not be able to face the ancestors of Great Qin!
  Thinking of this, Lu Buwei's heart was trembling and his eyes were slightly red.

Can Lu Buwei bear it?

That was a student that Lu Buwei had taught hard for more than ten years.

Lu Buwei regarded him as a junior in his family and devoted his whole life to cultivating the mantle.

Can Lu Buwei bear to watch Ying Zheng, who is like a disciple, face such a desperate situation in the future?
  Lu Buwei's voice was full of bitterness and sadness: "How can I bear to let the king face this difficulty alone!"

"Ever since I discovered the king's intentions, I have been guiding the king to no avail!"

"On the day when Your Majesty took over the throne, I was still admonishing Your Majesty, but it was useless!"

"Even after I was dismissed as prime minister, I still tried to persuade the king. Not only was it useless, it actually made the king angry!"

Lu Buwei clenched his right fist and said with regret: "I don't want to, but I can't do anything!"

"I can only watch helplessly as Great Qin collapses step by step."

"I can only watch helplessly as the king gets closer and closer to the desperate situation!"

"The only thing I can do for your Majesty is to die!"

Being sober is miserable.

People who are sober but unable to change the situation suffer even more.

Those who are sober and have the ability to change the situation but have to tie their hands because of emotions are the most miserable!
  Lu Buwei really tried his best.

But the methods he could bear to use were of no use.

Lu Buwei, whose moral lower limit is almost zero, still has ways to change the situation, but he can't use those methods on Ying Zheng.

Ying Chengyu sighed softly: "I understand you."

"After the battle to destroy Korea, I couldn't sleep for several months."

"Every night when I close my eyes, I can see endless limbs and broken arms standing up, wailing, wailing, and demanding my life!"

"I don't like war, and I don't like killing even more."

"What I love in my life is just traveling around mountains and rivers, fishing in streams, and enjoying delicious food!"

Jiang Zan and others looked at Ying Chengyu with strange eyes.

Do you think we believe this?

Lu Buwei's eyes also turned to Ying Chengyu.

He believed it.

Ying Chengyu's attitude towards the head of Guizhou can be described as unusual. A powerful man who truly treats the head of Guizhou as a human being cannot be a murderous person!

After drinking a lot of wine, Ying Chengyu smiled bleakly: "I hate war and long for peace."

"But since Brother Wang has decided that Great Qin's goal at this stage is to unify the world, then we should cooperate."

"The only thing I can do is to fight for the king, and with my ability, use a more cruel and tragic war to bring peace to the world as soon as possible!"

"Exchange struggle for peace, exchange chaos for great governance, exchange harsh punishments for lenient government and suspended sentences."

"In this regard, Marquis Wenxin is not as good as me."

Lu Buwei looked at Ying Chengyu and said in a complicated voice: "If you and I are still ministers in the same palace, I will criticize Lord Chang'an as a sycophant who only wants to flatter you!"

According to the thinking of "Lu Shi Chun Qiu", ministers should speak out and tell the king that this is wrong.

Instead of knowing that the king is wrong and still helping the evildoer!

Ying Chengyu smiled: "But I am not just a minister, I am also the king's younger brother."

"Marquis Wenxin is not only a minister, but also the king's father-in-law."

"Brother Wang has a very hard life, and there are not many people he can trust."

"Although the path Brother Wang has chosen is difficult and dangerous, it is not wrong!"

"If you and I don't help Brother Wang, who can Brother Wang trust?"

Ying Chengqiao can let his horse go to Nanshan and go fishing by himself.

Lu Buwei could have committed suicide by drinking poison and starting a new adventure.

But what should Ying Zheng do?
  What should Da Qin do?
  After Lu Buwei was silent for a long time, he finally spoke slowly: "Just a set of theories for governing the world is far from enough to save the future Qin Dynasty."

“It will take at least decades to integrate new governance ideas such as loyalty, filial piety, and etiquette into the hearts of the people.”

"What I have in mind is not something that can be accomplished overnight, nor is it an emergency measure that can be used at any time."

"Only by starting to build the foundation now, will there be rice for cooking when the king wants to use my strategy in the future."

"However, as Lord Chang'an said, I have been dismissed as prime minister and should no longer exert any influence on Da Qin."

Lu Buwei was already shaken.

He believed that Ying Chengyu could see that his desire to die was no longer firm, and he was willing to curb his sharpness and no longer affect Da Qin. But he needs Ying Chengyu to give him a promise.

During the period when Lu Buwei was dismissed as Prime Minister and was unable to influence Da Qin and Ying Zheng, Ying Chengxuan should make plans in advance for the future governance of the world!

Otherwise, what's the point of Lu Buwei's ignoble existence?
  Have you watched Ying Zheng and Da Qin fall into an irreversible impasse with your own eyes?
  However, Ying Chengyu nodded in agreement: "What Marquis Wenxin said is true."

"How difficult it is to suddenly start to rule the world after conquering it for decades!"

"That's why I just ignored the pain and galloped after Marquis Wenxin."

Ying Chengyu bowed his hands and said sincerely: "In my opinion, only Marquis Wenxin can help our Great Qin to complete such a transformation."

"Having spent decades thinking about it, I'm sure Wen Xinhou will be able to come up with a good plan!"

"The future of Great Qin depends on Marquis Wenxin!"

Lu Buwei:? ? ?

Everyone in Lu Buwei is numb!
  Not only did you deduct my pension, but also gave me all the work?

Is there anyone who exploits retired cadres like you?
  Lu Buwei could only make it clear: "My intention is that when it is inconvenient for me to act, please ask Chang'an Lord to educate talents, advise the king, promote loyalty, filial piety, leniency and probation!"

Ying Chengyu shook his head without hesitation: "Three years ago, I met a great talent in Xinzheng City. This man was my old Master Han Zifei."

"This person said: If you want to govern the anxious people with a tolerant government, you still have to control the horse without a bridle. This is an unknown danger!"

"Although I hate harsh punishments, I deeply agree with them."

Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "So not only can I not clear the way and lay the foundation for Marquis Wenxin in advance, I even recommend the young master to join the court as an official, and use more stringent laws to maximize the power of Qin." strength!"

Lu Buwei exclaimed in shock: "If this is the case, the ills of our Great Qin will be even worse."

"No matter whether Great Qin can unify the world, no matter whether Great Qin is engaged in foreign wars, in less than forty years, Great Qin will be destroyed!"

Ying Chengqiao nodded slightly: "I know."

Lu Buwei asked in disbelief: "Then Lord Chang'an still recommends such people to become officials in the dynasty?!"

Ying Chengyu said seriously: "The world today is in a state of emergency."

"In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures should be taken."

"Only by gathering the strength of the whole country through severe punishments and laws, can we, the Qin Dynasty, dominate the world as quickly as possible!"

"Only by unifying the world as quickly as possible can we have a longer time to govern the world."

"In this way, we will have the opportunity to completely quell the civil strife in our generation, in order to build a great Qin Dynasty for thousands of years!"

Lu Buwei was filled with horror: "Mr. Chang'an, have you ever thought that it would be about unifying the world! It's not about destroying one or two small countries!"

"What should we do if we, the Qin Dynasty, fail to dominate the world in one dynasty?"

"What should we do if we, the Qin Dynasty, try our best to unite the people but fail to unify the world within a few decades?"

Ying Chengxuan said quietly: "The enemies of Qin's unification of the world today are only Chu, Zhao, Yan, and Qi."

"I have already destroyed two heroes, why should I be afraid of killing four more?!"

Ying Chengxuan spoke firmly and calmly, but Lu Buwei's heart was trembling.

crazy!

Lu Buwei originally thought that Ying Zheng was crazy, and although Ying Cheng was a political enemy, he was a comrade.

But now it seems that Ying Chengyu is even more crazy than Ying Zheng!
  Lu Buwei shook his head repeatedly: "I thought that the day when Great Qin unified the world would be the day when Great Qin collapsed."

"But today I have just discovered that I am still too conservative in my thinking."

"The danger of Great Qin is imminent!"

Ying Chengyu nodded in agreement: "I deeply agree!"

"But luckily we in Great Qin still have Marquis Wenxin."

"Would Marquis Wenxin be willing to help my brother and me deal with the aftermath?"

Lu Buwei wanted to curse.

I want you to help me lay the foundation for returning to the DPRK in advance.

In the end, you plan to leave me an even worse mess?
  What old man can stand up to you?

You have to boil out all my bone marrow oil!
  But why is it so hard to say no?

Ying Zheng urgently needs him, and this satisfies Lu Buwei more than any reward!
  Lu Buwei's eyes were slightly tilted, and his voice was a little complicated: "I dare not say that I have a plan to govern the world in the future."

"And without decades of guidance, my strategy may not be implemented at all."

"If I continue to live an ignoble existence, I may just make the king disgusted and ashamed to eat Qinsu for dozens of years."

Ying Chengxiao smiled: "If we, Da Qin, can really dominate the world with Brother Wang, Brother Wang will definitely be a tyrant in the eyes of the world."

"I will also be a sycophant and a killer in the eyes of the world."

"so what?"

"Everything we do is for Da Qin and the world!"

"I have a clear conscience!"

Ying Chengyu raised his noble rank and invited him to drink: "I am willing to be a sycophant, and I am willing to be a murderer."

"Is Marquis Wenxin willing to serve as a coward for the country?"

Jiang Zan and all the diners looked at Lu Buwei with nervousness in their eyes.

After Lu Buwei was silent for a long time, he finally slowly raised the wine baron:

"Respect Da Qin, respect the world!"

Ying Chengyu laughed heartily:
  "Respect Da Qin, respect the world!"
