There was some water in the bowl, and this was all he could afford to drink in his day.
Lu Gong was sitting in front of him, and when he was about to say something, Lu Zhi came out with a look of resentment on his face.
"Of course I'm here to tell you not to do nothing all day long!"
What Mr. Lu was about to say was stuck in his throat. Before Liu Ji spoke, he opened his mouth to reprimand his daughter.
"There are no rules at all. Is this how I taught you at home?"
He snorted coldly: "Don't you understand the rules of obeying your husband when you get married?"
"Your husband is still here, and your father is also here, so where do you have the right to speak?"
Lu Pheasant glared at Liu Ji angrily and then left.
Lu Gong looked at Liu Ji with a little guilt on his face: "Don't worry about your virtuous son-in-law. My little daughter has been spoiled by me."
He sighed softly, looked at Liu Ji and continued: "Today, the world is in chaos."
Liu Ji raised his head, and before Lu Gong could say the next words, he said first: "The world is so peaceful, how can it be called chaos?"
He was a little confused: "Could it be that what Mr. Lu sees with his eyes is different from what we see?"
Lu Gong smiled condescendingly, pointed at Liu Ji and said, "My eyes are naturally different from those of a virtuous son-in-law."
"Why did I marry my daughter to a good husband that day?"
"It's because I saw that the virtuous son-in-law's body was filled with purple energy, which was a sign of the ancient sages coming to this world."
"It is said that when the three emperors Yao, Shun and Yu were born, there was this vision between heaven and earth."
"And now, the virtuous son-in-law has this strange purple energy on his body. What does this mean?"
"It means that the virtuous son-in-law is the same as the three emperors in ancient times. They are reincarnations of great sages and are destined to win the world!"
Liu Ji didn't feel angry at all when he heard such outrageous words.
He just raised his head and took another sip from the bowl of water.
There was still half of the water in the bowl and it was crystal clear.
"Mr. Lu, are you here to advise me to rebel?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Liu Ji's voice: "I am the head of the Sishui Pavilion in Great Qin. Now Great Qin is extremely stable, so what reason do I have to rebel?"
"Don't mention this matter. I can completely pretend that I have never heard of this matter."
Lu Gong's body leaned forward, with a slight determination on his face.
Not only did he not give up, but he became more determined in his thoughts.
"My dear son-in-law, will I still harm you?"
Lu Gong said earnestly: "Qin gained the world because of the military merit system, which turned Qin into a war madman. And in those wars, how many people of Qin died?"
"Even now, can the world be considered stable?"
"In the sixteenth year of King Qin's reign, Qin annexed its first country, Han."
"What time is it now? If we continue according to their calendar, it will only be the twenty-seventh year of King Qin's reign."
"The Qin Dynasty destroyed the six kingdoms back then, and now it's only been ten years since Han was destroyed."
Lu Gong looked at Liu Ji and said seriously: "Can the people of Han forget their motherland in ten years?"
"Can ten years of rule make the people of Han adapt to Qin's brutal rule?"
Lu Gong shook his head and said, "I think it's impossible."
"Not only is it impossible, the people of Han already have deep resentment towards Qin in their hearts."
"Then, can only one Korean citizen have resentment against Qin's brutal rule? What about the people of the other countries?"
"Don't they miss their homeland?"
Liu Ji was slightly silent. He picked up the pottery bowl in front of him and took a sip of water.
There was still one-third of the water in the bowl, and some rough marks on the bottom of the bowl could already be seen.
Liu Ji raised his head and looked at Mr. Lu: "What Mr. Lu said, did he forget the household registration and road guidance systems that are now vigorously implemented?"
He said softly: "Now everyone in the world has got their own land."
"Do we expect them to hand over these lands?"
"They won't want to."
"But if they don't hand it over, can the survivors of the Six Nations let it go?"
"unable."
"Therefore, the people have stood beside Qin and become their solid backing."
"Sometimes, the leaders of Guizhou in this world are the most realistic and selfish."
"Whoever treats them well will be missed by them."
"Even if they are temporarily deceived by someone with good intentions, after those ridiculous mistakes are seen clearly, they will still miss that person with their deepest memory."
"No one can change this."
Liu Ji looked at Lu Gong: "In this case, even if we rise up, how can we achieve great things without the resources of troops?"
"Please teach me."
Lu Gong was silent for a moment, and then said instantly: "Can't we do what Qin can do?"
"Ji, although they value interests, they value the feelings of their hometown more."
"We have come up with the same thing, how could they still fall in love with the rule of other countries?"
"After so many years of war, who's family hasn't had a few people die at the hands of Qin soldiers?"
He looked at Liu Ji and his voice suddenly became a little aggressive.
"Just like you, didn't a few of your ancestors die at the hands of Qin soldiers?"
Lu Gong's voice became louder.
Liu Ji was slightly silent.
Mr. Lu was overjoyed, and when he was about to say something more, a bitter voice came from inside the room.
"he?"
"With his kind of temper, even if someone kills his father, he can still sit here and enjoy himself secretly!"
"Otherwise, how could he watch me suffer with him?"
What Mr. Lu was about to say suddenly stalled.
At this time, Liu Ji raised his head.
He looked at Lu Gong and said: "Lu Gong, how do you know that someone is planning something big?"
Lu Gong was dissatisfied, but he could only suppress his inner anger.
"Of course I have my own channels."
"Liu Ji, are you going to live here all your life?"
"A real man should wear a three-foot sword and rule the world!"
Lu Gong held Liu Ji's hand with excitement in his eyes.
"When I first saw you, I saw a wisp of red Qi in the purple Qi above your head."
"You are the son of the Red Emperor."
As Lu Gong spoke, his body was about to crawl down, his eyes filled with tears.
Liu Ji sat there, looking slightly silent.
Lu Pheasant in the room spoke again: "Father..."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Lu, who was lying on the ground, raised his head, with a slightly ferocious look in his eyes.
"You, a married woman, have repeatedly interrupted my discussions with your husband. Do you want to replace your husband and become the master of this family?"
"Your husband has dragon energy and is the reincarnation of the Red Emperor's son."
"You can become his wife, which shows that you are only the wife of the Red Emperor who came to this world through my body and your mother's body."
"Is the Red Emperor's wife so unwise that she dares to suppress the Red Emperor again and again?"
Lu Gong's voice was not high-pitched, but his tone was calm.
But Lu Pheasant in the room never spoke again, just maintaining the same silence as Liu Ji.
After a long time, Liu Ji raised his head, picked up the water bowl in front of him and took a sip.
This sip almost drained the water in the bowl, leaving only a drop or two stuck to the bottom of the bowl, looking extremely stubborn.
"Mr. Lu, I understand what you mean."
"It's just that as a minister of Great Qin, how can I rebel against Great Qin first?"
Liu Ji walked to Lu Gong's side and helped Lu Gong up.
"Please get up."
Lu Gong held Liu Ji's hand and looked at Liu Ji with some inexplicable meaning in their eyes.
Liu Ji's eyes were dull, and he just looked at the person standing in front of him.
After a long while, Lu Gong nodded slightly: "I understand."
"On the first day of October, Xiang Yu, the nephew of Duke Xiang and the surviving son of the Xiang clan who has been with Chu for generations, will rise up in Kuaiji County."
"At that time, the world will naturally have people who will follow suit."
"I won't make it difficult for you anymore."
After saying this, Mr. Lu stood up and walked away.
Only Liu Ji sat at the table, silently looking at the water bowl in front of him, with a little calmness and silence in his eyes.
After a while, Lu Pheasant walked out of the room, his expression still so acrimonious.
She placed a kettle on the table.
"bump"
Then he looked at Liu Ji condescendingly: "If you are thirsty, just pour yourself some water!"
After that, he left.
Liu Ji looked at Lu Pheasant's back, his expression flickering a little inexplicably, then he looked at the kettle in front of him and sighed.
He picked up the kettle, put it in the bowl that was almost empty, but not yet empty, and was about to pour it into it.
...........
Lu Mansion
Mr. Lu stood there and sneered.
"It's really the married daughter who threw the water away. This statement is actually not wrong at all!"
"My daughter's family is extroverted after all!"
"After you get married, you will turn towards your husband and become separated from your father."
The boy stood beside him, lowering his head and not knowing what to say.
After a long time, he said: "Then Lu Gong, do you still need to prepare Liu Ji's share?"
Mr. Lu put his hands behind his back: "Get ready."
"Whether he uses it or not is another matter."
.........
Zhangtai Palace
A candle flickered, and everything seemed to be reflecting the long shadow.
Ying Zheng looked at Fusu in front of him and chuckled.
"When do you think it will be an auspicious day?"
Fusu blinked, looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Auspicious day?"
"I think that the first day of October is an auspicious day."
"A day that couldn't have been better."
...........
in the village
Everyone gathered together, and a "witch" was using tortoise shells and "Yi" to divine fortune.
Everyone gathered around him, watching him silently, all very serious, and the atmosphere seemed particularly solemn.
"Crackling"
There was silence all around, with only a few sounds coming from the fire in front of everyone.
After a while, the results of the divination came out.
Xiang Yu asked hurriedly: "Reconciliation?"
With a smile on his face, the witch spoke the divination words.
Use nine: It is auspicious to see a group of dragons without a leader.
It was September 30th, late at night.
In another half hour, it will be midnight on October 1st.
