Ying Zheng's words were sincere, and Liu Bang, who had put aside his resentment at this time, was a little surprised.
"I promised your brother to create an opportunity for you." Ying Zheng said, "As for whether you can seize it, it depends on you."
Liu An said before that Liu Bang has a resolute personality, and if he directly tells the plan, he may not be able to accept it.
"What opportunity?" Liu Bang asked.
Ying Zheng looked at him and said: "Today's world is bound to be unified. This is also an important responsibility of the Tianhe. However, after the unification, we cannot maintain peace for a long time, because I have to lead the Ying family to completely rectify the natural source." After that, there may be no more clans with the Ying surname in the world."
Liu Bang's eyebrows twitched, and a strange color appeared on his originally calm face.
"Rather than living happily in the world for generations, I hope that the Ying family can take action to protect the safety of the entire world." Ying Zheng explained, "But after the Ying family has gone into hiding, someone needs to stand up and take charge of the overall situation."
Liu Bang's eyes widened: "Could it be...could it be..."
Ying Zheng smiled and said: "You are right, I hope to entrust you with the unification of the country, but you must also unify it again after the chaos."
Liu Bang's heart kept beating wildly, as if he had heard the most incredible words in his life: "I, I..."
Ying Zheng raised his hand to stop him and said, "You just need to tell me, do you have the courage to take on this important task?"
Liu Bang was a person who refused to admit defeat, and he was still in his twenties. How could he withstand such a provocation? He immediately said: "Why don't you dare? There is nothing in the world that I, Liu Bang, dare not do."
He followed him all the way from Chu State to Shennongjia in an attempt to avenge his brother. Even if he never returned, he certainly had nothing to fear.
"Okay!" Ying Zheng raised his voice, "If this is the case, then you can no longer take the grudges from the past to heart, and you must keep in mind what I will say next."
Liu Bang nodded seriously.
At this moment, Ying Zheng seemed to have seen the scene when he faced Ji Fa in Qishan and accepted the important task of heaven.
Turning to look at Ji Fa, Ying Zheng then said to Liu Bang: "You must be wondering why I chose you to take over the country when there are so many virtuous ministers around me."
Liu Bang really had a lot of doubts about this.
"Because I have designed a thousand-year plan to arrange for these retainers to maintain the inheritance. After you, if the mountains and rivers are broken again, their descendants will also shoulder the heavy responsibility of saving the common people."
"Besides, there are many old clans in Da Qin. If one party rises up to fight for power, a group of people will fight against each other. At that time, the foundation that I have worked so hard to build will be shattered. Therefore, it is a better choice for an outsider to take over."
Liu Bang thought: It is indeed true. It seems that King Qin has considered all possibilities.
Ying Zheng continued: "What you have to do is to maintain your original intention and continue to grow yourself, and others will secretly help you."
"First of all, I will give you a wife with a profound background, and I will also find a few talented people to assist you."
"Secondly, I will leave you a sword named 'Red Sky'. You can use this as a basis to gain momentum."
"Then, people from the Xiang family will help you clear out the old clans and old forces in Da Qin. My retainers will also help you protect the four directions and prevent interference from foreign tribes."
"What you have to do is to protect the secrets of Tiancheng's lineage and prevent the common people from knowing the reasons and causes."
Liu Bang blinked and said, "Everything else is not difficult, but what needs to be done to protect the secret?"
Ying Zheng thought for a while and said: "Some of them are particularly critical, just like the royal tomb that I am building. Many utensils, ancient books, and other things related to ancient times will be stored there."
"After the royal tomb is completely sealed, you'd better bury it so that it will never see the light of day again. I also arranged for Ou Yezi's descendants of the clan to wait there. The Chixiao Sword just mentioned was made by them. "
"Also, if Xianyang City is destroyed in the future, then you can build a new capital near Lishan Mountain."
Liu Bang looked surprised and said: "Build...a capital city?"
Ying Zheng nodded lightly: "Yes, we must take good care of this royal tomb. After all, there are too many secrets buried in it, and I am afraid that the people will come to dig the tomb because of my reputation."
"Infamy?" Liu Bang asked, "How do you mean this?"
Ying Zhengyou sighed and said: "In the original plan, after I retired from the world, I would deliberately ask Zhao Gao to bring trouble to the court, so that the people would complain against the royal family. This would set off a wave of rebellion among the people against the court, so you can Take this opportunity to gain a foothold.”
Liu Bang was deeply shocked.
The King of Qin in front of him not only did not want the glory of generations, but even wanted to destroy his own reputation. He really regarded fame and wealth as nothing. It is really difficult for mortals to understand his actions.
"After that..." Ying Zheng paused and said, "You just need to work hard to defeat a man named Xiang Yu."
"Xiang Yu?" Liu Bang asked in surprise, "Is it also arranged by King Qin?"
Ying Zheng nodded slightly and thought to himself: Although the arrangements have been made, they haven't been weaned yet.
Seeing the strange expression on Ying Zheng's face, Liu Bang knew that Xiang Yu's identity was definitely not simple, so he stopped asking any more questions.
"Is there anything else you don't understand?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Well, when is the specific time for me to implement my plan?" Liu Bang asked, "What do I need to do now?"
Ying Zheng replied: "The time for your uprising will be when Zhao Gao brings trouble to the imperial court. For now, all you need to do is increase your knowledge and wait for people to come looking for you."
"Understood." Liu Bang replied.
"Then let's make an agreement!"
After talking about political affairs, the two began to chat.
In this way, the two people put aside their grudges, chatted along the way, and returned to Xianyang.
When approaching Xianyang, Liu Bang said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I want to pay homage to my brother."
Ying Zheng responded: "Yes, I will accompany you, and I will also take you to visit the royal tomb."
Ying Zheng asked the team to return to the city first, and then took Liu Bang to Lishan Mountain.
The cold winter has arrived, and the work on the royal tomb has stopped. Judging from the appearance, great progress has been made during this period.
Stacks of dense stones are neatly placed in the virtual tomb, and the foundation of the main tomb has been completed, with many wooden frames erected in the middle.
Ying Zheng looked at Liu Bang and said, "I have told you the actual purpose of this royal tomb. When it is completed, your brother will be credited with the first credit."
Liu Bang stroked the dense stone in front of him and said slowly: "It seems that my brother's efforts are worth it."
The two of them watched for a while, then came to Liu An's tomb, paid homage, and then returned to Xianyang City.
After settling Liu Bang, Ying Zheng quickly found Lord Changping.
"I have been working hard for the Prime Minister during this period. Is there anything important in the DPRK?" Ying Zheng asked directly.
"Your Majesty." Lord Changping cupped his hands and said, "Not long after Your Majesty left the palace, the Dawan Kingdom sent a delegation with ten bloody horses. They are still waiting in the city."
"Haha, we are indeed here." Ying Zheng said happily, "How about the horses? Are they well taken care of?"
"The horses are good. They should all be carefully selected. All of them are similar to the king's black fox." Changping Jun replied, "There are currently more than a dozen grooms taking care of them to ensure that there are no mistakes."
"That's good." Ying Zheng said with a smile, "By the way, there are some outstanding people with them, right?"
"Exactly." Lord Changping said, "They have come again, and they are all waiting for the king's arrangements."
"Okay, after I meet them, let them join up with the Jingjue people from before." Ying Zheng said, "Is there any other important matter?"
Changping Jun said: "A month ago, the team that went to the Huns came back and brought back a piece of beautiful jade."
"Really? Where is it? Let me see it quickly." Ying Zheng looked quite anxious.
"Dedicated to Manager Zhao."
Ying Zheng immediately called Zhao Gao, and he immediately brought an exquisite wooden box.
Opening the box, what is in front of you is a beautiful piece of jade. Its light green brilliance is not mixed with a trace of dirt. Its appearance is warm and peaceful, as if it is exuding moisture from the inside out.
It feels smooth and delicate, has a moderate temperature, and seems to be softer than skin. Holding it in your hand gives you a refreshing feeling.
"Well, it is indeed a good jade." Ying Zheng sighed, "No wonder our ancestors loved it so much that they had to trade several cities for it."
Lord Changping said: "I heard that the king exchanged the black fox for this jade?"
"Yes." Ying Zheng said, "It seems that the black fox is worth fifteen cities."
Lord Changping knew that he was joking, so he said: "Now that the king has obtained several sweat horses, if you give one away, it will be nothing, but if you exchange it for the city, it will be a bit more than the gains are worth the loss."
Ying Zheng looked at Lord Changping and said in a meaningful tone: "The city is the foundation of the country and also where the interests lie. With the city, there will be a steady stream of wealth."
Correct
"If I give you a few cities, I wonder if Lord Changping doesn't want them?"
Lord Changping was slightly startled and said, "Your Majesty, it's better not to make such a joke with Wei Chen."
"I am serious." Ying Zheng said solemnly, "After I left Yinshan this time, I did not return to the palace. Instead, I went to Chu State. You must have heard about it, and the purpose of going there was to bring Hu Yu visited Yu'er and discussed future plans with General Xiang Yan."
Lord Changping asked: "Is this plan related to Wei Chen?"
Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "At this point, it's time for me to inform you of my future plans."
Immediately, General Ying Zheng explained in detail what he said to Xiang Yan when he was in Chu State, as well as his plan for the next thousand years.
Of course, compared with what Liu Bang said, there was still a lot missing. After all, his purpose was just to let Lord Changping help Xiang Yan cultivate Gong Ziyu.
After hearing this, Lord Changping took a deep breath and said, "The king has planned so far!"
Ying Zheng said: "There are many important factors here, but I can't explain them to you one by one. You just need to take good care of Gong Ziyu."
"I accept my order," Lord Changping said with cupped hands.
"I will give you a sum of supplies and enfeoff Ying City to you, but I'm afraid you won't be able to get the position of Prime Minister." Ying Zheng said, "You can pretend to be dissatisfied with my enfeoffment and return to Chu State. go."
"Or, you can really go back to Chu State."
Two sentences that seem similar have completely different meanings.
One is to return to Chu State and help Ying Zheng take care of Gong Ziyu on the grounds of being exempted from the phase and enfeoffing Ying City.
The other is to really return to Chu State and serve the King of Chu.
After a moment's hesitation, Lord Changping bowed and said, "Your Majesty should know how loyal I am. Your Majesty can give up your throne and send your son away just because of the safety of the world. How can I be greedy for personal gain?"
Ying Zheng said: "Everyone has selfish desires. I asked you to take care of Yu'er. Most of them are selfish desires. I won't force you."
Lord Changping said: "The fact that the king can entrust me with this matter is a sign of your great trust in me. I will never let you down!"
"Okay!" Ying Zheng said, "Then Yu'er will be entrusted to you."
