Ying Zhuo took Xiong Wuliang with him and walked into the Qin Palace again, this time going straight to the back hall.
Xiong Wuliang also figured it out.
This is someone else's territory. At this moment, everyone is fighting for their own good, and there is no point in struggling.
Ying Zhuo grew up in the Qin Palace and knew the place well. Under the leadership of Ying Zhuo, the two cleverly avoided all the patrolling Qin army guards and chamberlains.
Seeing Ying Zhuo's sneaky appearance, Xiong Wu gradually understood in his conscience——
It seemed that King Qin Ying Ji didn't want more people to know about his visit.
So the question is, who can extend the intelligence tentacles to the palace of the King of Qin?
The answer is obvious: of course it is my cheap aunt - Empress Dowager Xuan of Da Qin!
To summarize, King Qin Ying Ji wanted to see him, but he wanted to avoid the Queen Mother Xuan. Let’s think about what Ying Ji heard him say in the wine shop that day...
Xiong Wuliang understood.
Ying Ji took his words to heart.
Xiong Wu secretly complained in his conscience.
…
When he came to the study room in the back hall, Ying Zhuo looked around and pushed Xiong Wuliang in.
"Brother Wang, the people have arrived."
Xiong Wuliang took a closer look. The study continued the overall style of the Qin Palace. A huge black flag with the word Qin hung on the wall. Other than that, there were no decorations.
There were large bundles of bamboo slips piled on King Qin's desk. What made Xiong Wuliang look at him was that there was actually a thick stack of white paper...
It seems that the business in his fiefdom has been brought to Ying Ji's desk.
Ying Ji actually stood in front of the door. After seeing Xiong Wuliang, he bowed deeply to the latter and said, "Ying Ji has met Mr. Xiong."
"I did something extraordinary at an extraordinary time, which frightened my husband."
In terms of age, Xiong Wuliang is even one or two years younger than Ying Ji.
Unexpectedly, he was treated with such courtesy by Ying Ji.
He is worthy of being the famous King Qin Zhaoxiang in history!
Xiong Wuliang could only bite the bullet: "Foreign Minister Mi Liang has met King Qin..."
Ying Ji smiled slightly and sat down with Xiong Wuliang. Then he leaned forward and looked at Xiong Wuliang with inquiring eyes——
"Ying Ji has already learned from the great talents of the princes."
"Ying Ji is willing to take Mr. Ji as his teacher and practice the art of strengthening the country!" Ying Ji's tone was very sincere.
Xiong Wuliang:?
What kind of twist is this?
Ying Zhuo, who was watching at the door, turned to look inside the room, glanced at the stunned Xiong Wuliang, and frowned.
Although this young man from Chu State has a high title, he looks to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Even if he is a genius, how capable can he be so valued by his brother Wang?
Perhaps Qu Yangjun of Chu State has a very accurate vision, but trying to rely on him to regain the king's power and innovate Qin's laws... is a bit too outrageous, right?
Brother Wang was so ill that he went to the doctor.
Ying Ji made a long bow and did not get up.
Xiong Wuliang hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Ying Ji up: "That... Your Majesty's words are serious..."
Ying Ji: "Don't blame me, Lord - Ying Ji is also half of Chu blood, we are one family!"
"Now Ying Ji sincerely seeks talents..."
"I hope that the king will not care about the differences between Qin and Chu and will not hesitate to teach me!"
"If it can really benefit our great Qin, Ying Ji would like to make your husband the prime minister of our great Qin!" Ying Ji's words were astonishing.
…
Xiong Wuliang was dumbfounded.
Based on a few words in the wine shop, you want to appoint me as the prime minister of Qin?
You really think I'm a fool because of my young age, right?
Your cake is really big and round!
If it were an ordinary person, he would probably have been moved by it a long time ago.
It's a pity that Xiong Wuliang never thought of joining Qin!
Not to mention the amount of water contained in the promise of Ying Ji, the 'Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty'...
Even if Ying Ji sincerely wants to appoint Xiong Wuliang as prime minister, Xiong Wuliang is not willing to go!
Don't get me wrong, we unscrupulous young men are not actually the kind of people with strong principles.
If the path of 'resigning to the winner' is indeed a feasible way to survive...then Xiong Wuliang doesn't mind kneeling down and licking him on the spot - even if he becomes a foster father or something, it's easy.
The problem is that this path simply doesn’t work!
Let me ask you, among the heroes of the Qin State, which one had a good end?
Let's go back a little further - Meng, Xi, and Bai, the three generals of Duke Mu of Qin, had outstanding achievements and helped Duke Mu achieve hegemony. However, they also ended up being buried at the hands of Duke Mu.
Needless to say, Shang Yang, who helped Qin Xiaogong to reform the law, died the most tragic death.
King Qin Huiwen's Zhang Yi is also living in another country, and King Qin Wu's Gan Mao is now unable to return home.
Not to mention Bai Qi, even with Lord Wu An's illustrious military exploits, he was sentenced to death with a sword.
Lu Buwei in the back seems to have died quite miserably, right?
…
All in all, being a minister of Qin is a high-risk profession!
Not to mention that he, Lord Quyang, has a grudge against the Qin people for killing his father... We are incompatible with each other!
Ying Zhuo at the door couldn't hold himself any longer.
In her eyes, this brother Wang seems to be crazy!
The Qin State is one of the most powerful countries in the world. What does the Qin State's Prime Minister mean?
It’s the equivalent of Secretary of State America in later generations, right?
Let a young boy with little success take on such a big responsibility... Even if Brother Wang resorts to medical treatment indiscriminately, he cannot do so!
"Brother Wang, be careful what you say!" Ying Zhuo stopped looking at the door and walked in and grabbed Ying Ji's sleeve——
"How can an ordinary person be worthy of being the Prime Minister of our Great Qin Kingdom?"
"Even if Qu Yangjun of Chu State is extremely talented, he is just a young man now... How can he be given such an important task?"
"I'm afraid the entire Da Qin government is dissatisfied!"
Ying Ji glanced at Ying Zhuo speechlessly.
You just watch the door, why are you interrupting?
We didn’t say we would make him prime minister immediately.
Isn’t this a big picture? Of course, we have to draw it bigger and rounder.
We will see what kind of benefits you will get after joining the company!
However, it is a good thing that his cousin is questioning it now.
The Xiong Wuliang in front of him will definitely be anxious to prove himself after being bullied by Ying Zhuo's words!
Maybe it's just a eloquent piece of advice on governing the country.
Whether this Xiong Wuliang is a gifted young talent, or whether he relies on his defense, you will know soon!
Ying Ji held his breath and looked at Xiong Wuliang expectantly, waiting for the latter's counterattack.
As expected, Xiong Wuliang spoke——
I saw this guy slapping his hands and shouting in agreement.
"Princess Zhuo is right!"
"To be honest, Your Majesty, this is all just talk on paper - if you really want me to give you some advice on how to govern the country, I really can't!"
"Although the Prime Minister of Qin and the foreign ministers are also very moved...but they really dare not deceive the king and end up disappointing the king!"
Ying Ji's face turned dark.
Zhuo, why is it different from what you imagined?
Ying Ji refused to let it go easily and hurriedly said, "The Lord is too humble!"
"Back in the wine shop, I pointed out the shortcomings of Qin's law in a few words, which was like raising a fire in the dark night, which made Ying Ji feel refreshed!"
"The eyes of the princes were not obscured by the power of Qin. Instead, they saw blood and pointed out the shortcomings of Qin's laws..."
"He must be a great talent!"
"Does it mean that the king dislikes me for having no power at this time and is unwilling to support Ying Ji?"
Xiong Wuliang's mind was spinning.
It is absolutely impossible to go to Qin.
On the Qin side, even if you have great achievements, you may not have a happy ending - just like that kind of unscrupulous private enterprise that will kick you clean after draining the remaining value...
Moreover, the development of the fiefdom is in full swing, and the cause of resisting Qin is constantly on the right track.
How can you recognize a thief as your father?
Xiong Wuliang rolled his eyes: "Foreign officials dare not deceive the king..."
"The principles I mentioned before were all mentioned by others when I was in Chu State - they were all based on others' wisdom, and they were not concepts that Mi Liang summarized by himself at all."
Ying Ji was startled.
Ying Zhuo nodded slowly - let me tell you, how could such a teenage boy have such profound talents?
Listen to Xiong Wuliang’s explanation——
It seems... more reasonable.
"I would like to ask Mr. Qu Yang, who said this about the shortcomings of Qin's law?" Ying Ji was half convinced.
"I, the Great Chu Zhonglijun, am Fei!" Xiong Wuliang said firmly!
