In just a moment, the door to Chen's mansion opened.
The visitor hurriedly walked in, and Chen Ke was resting at this time. When he got up, he was completely confused.
In the study
The candlelight dimly illuminated this small room. Chen Ke sat there with his clothes on, looking at the person in front of him with a little disbelief in his eyes.
"What did you say?"
Chen Ke said in disbelief: "Can you ensure that what you say is true, and can you take responsibility for what you say?"
The visitor looked serious, and he nodded hurriedly, like a chicken pecking at rice.
"How dare I deceive Governor Chen?"
He gritted his teeth and said, "There is nothing I can do about it. I heard this news accidentally before, so I have been careful and vigilant."
"But these days, things have happened one after another in the villain's family, and I know that I can't wait any longer."
There was a slight shadow in Chen Ke's lowered eyes.
He was a little confused, but also seemed to have a sudden realization and said: "That's it, but why did he do this?"
"This will not do him any good."
The man in front of Chen Ke is a boy from Chuanyang Jun's mansion. He only cleans some unimportant places all day long.
What he said was exactly what Chuanyang Jun intended to rebel against...
In other words, it cannot be regarded as treason.
It can only be said that he wanted to continue to enfeoff. Chuanyang Jun wanted to be a "Ying Dan" or "Qin Gong".
He was not willing to be just a Chuanyang Lord and a Da Zongzheng.
Whether the enfeoffment system is implemented or not is not very important to him, but the result after the implementation of the enfeoffment system is what he wants.
The status of the clan has been greatly improved, and his status as the great sect leader will naturally also be significantly improved.
In the future, if Ying Zheng dies early, Fu Su or Hu Hai ascend the throne, will they still be able to suppress all the heroes in the world?
If the enfeoffment system could be implemented, naturally the meritorious officials and the clan members would be enfeoffed together.
Li Si, Wang Jian, Meng Tian, Feng Quji, and even Chen Fengchang, who had just risen to prominence, were all taken into consideration.
These people hold huge power in their hands, including military power, political power, and influence on local students.
The power of the central government will be greatly weakened.
Once Hu Hai or Fu Su, or the next generation of emperors, cannot suppress the kings of the same surname and the opposite sex, he, the great Zongzheng, will be able to stand firm.
And more importantly, he didn't have a few more years to live.
So when he was alive, everything was peaceful, but as soon as he died, the world became chaotic and fell into chaos again.
What will the people of the world think?
You will feel that this "Qin Gong" really deserves credit for his hard work, and he can actually suppress the princes of the world and make the world stable.
Ying Zheng could not become an eternal benevolent king due to his tyranny, but he, the "Qin Gong" Chuanyang Lord, could take this opportunity to become an eternal saint.

Ying Zheng waved his hand, not paying attention to Chen Ke's distraction just now, and just said: "What are you doing with Mr. Hu Chuan and Mr. Jingyang today?"
Chen Ke looked at Chuanyang Jun, Wang Jian, and Li Si who were sitting next to him, chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, I visited these two people today simply because I really found evidence of their crimes."
He sighed quietly and said, "Actually, there was no other intention."
"You know, I'm not the kind of person who beats around the bush. If you have something to say, just say it directly."
"so...."
Chen Ke said helplessly: "I really am not targeting anyone as some people think."
"It's just to show the evidence of these two people's crimes..."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Jian and Li Si's eyes flashed with suspicion, while Chuanyang Jun glanced at Chen Ke, obviously not believing it at all.
What Ying Zheng wanted was just a step, and he immediately said with a smile: "You, don't make it so unclear next time."
"Save others from worrying."
He looked at Chuanyang Jun and said with comfort in his voice, "Uncle, you don't have to worry too much."
"What do the crimes committed by Mr. Hu Chuan and Mr. Jingyang have to do with you?"
"They are already so old. Is it possible that they still want my uncle to take care of them?"
"Qin has laws. This law was compiled when Lord Shang was still alive. Although it is being gradually revised now, some general directions remain unchanged."
Young Master Hui nodded slightly, looked at Ying Zheng, and said with some relief on his face: "Your Majesty is able to do this, it is a blessing for the Qin Dynasty."
"After a hundred years, I will be able to explain to my brother."
The corners of his eyes were a little red, as if he had some tears.
"If I were to let my brother see Da Qin today, he would definitely be filled with emotion."
Chen Ke, Li Si, and Wang Jian stood aside and silently watched Gongzi Hui's performance.
To be honest, Gongzi Hui's performance level is actually quite good. When you have no doubts about him, you can't see anything wrong with him at all.
But now that I have doubts in my heart, I have the most basic distrust of this person. Under this distrust, there are many problems with Chuanyang Jun's performance.
Ying Zheng talked with Chuanyang Jun for a few more words before sending Chuanyang Jun away.
Just as Chuanyang Jun's figure disappeared into the hall, Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Chen Ke and said, "What on earth is going on?"
Li Si and Wang Jian also looked at Chen Ke with confused expressions. ….
Although they had basic trust in Chen Ke, which led them to doubt whether there was something wrong with Lord Chuanyang, at this moment, they still wanted to know the answer from Chen Ke.
Chen Ke sighed slightly, and after telling what happened in the past two days, the hall fell into silence.
"Why should he be like this?"
Wang Jian sighed quietly: "Is your posthumous name so important?"
"For your own selfish reasons, would you allow the world to fall into war again?"
"I can't understand his logic in this."
Li Si also nodded slightly. He thought this was incredible and deviated from the most basic logic.
Chen Ke didn't have any unexpected emotions, perhaps because he had no impression of this Chuanyang Lord at the beginning.
"The world is so big, what kind of things can't happen?"
"This is not a storybook. The storybook should pay attention to the most basic logic, but in reality it does not apply."
Chen Ke said with a smile: "If it were a travelogue or a story about ghosts and ghosts, we would need to consider the reasons, otherwise it would seem very unreal."
"But what kind of logic does this reality have?"
"What I'm worried about is that Mr. Chuanyang has been in business for so many years. There might be something buried deep underneath that cannot be dug out."
At this time, Ying Zheng spoke
.
He said silently: "Perhaps the 'Golden Eucalyptus' back then has something to do with him. "
"I just remembered how closely some of the warlocks back then were related to my great-uncle..."
Eucalyptus goldenrod?
Li Si and Wang Jian fell into silence again.
Golden Dandelion is something that spanned many years. In fact, if Chen Ke had not planned Lu Sheng and Xu Fu's donation of medicine before, Jindan Eucalyptus would have continued to this day.
There are countless people involved.
It's just a rough calculation. Among them are many nobles from the Six Kingdoms, some ministers above the court, and even some chamberlains in the palace, as well as Zhao Gao, Confucianism, etc. who were the commanders of the CRRC at that time.
Although the incident happened a year ago, Li Si and Wang Jian still have memories of the incident because of the bloodshed at that time.
"If it has something to do with Eucalyptus aureus..."
"Nakawa Yangjun's crime is related to poisoning His Majesty and intending to commit rebellion..."
This is the truth.
But no one expected that Lord Chuanyang would do such a thing.
Li Si was silent for a moment and then said: "Isn't Zhang Liang still alive and still being locked up in a prison and not knowing what to do with him?"
"Let Lieutenant Ting interrogate Zhang Liang again."
Ying Zheng nodded silently, expressing his support, but he was a little confused and tired.
To get to this day, he has sacrificed and given up too much.
Brothers, parents, friends.
Now, will even the only elder who has some kindness to him be dealt with by him personally?
For a moment, Ying Zheng was a little confused.
He said: "Let Chen Ke go."
Ying Zheng looked at Chen Ke and said, "Go in person, I can't trust anyone else now."
He did not name specific people, but said, "I want to hear real answers from the mouths of Zhang Liang, Mi Dong and others."
“You need to get sufficient and strong evidence.”….
Ying Zheng's voice was cold and cold, but a little confusion and powerlessness could be heard in it.
The people of Qin and the world often think that Ying Zheng is a god in the world, but Ying Zheng is really not a so-called god...
He is just an ordinary person.
Even if he is a little more determined than ordinary people, even if he is a little more courageous than ordinary people, even if he is the First Emperor who sweeps the world...
He is still essentially a human being.
People have feelings, and feelings are always a person's biggest and eternal weakness.
Chen Ke nodded slightly. He looked at Ying Zheng and changed the subject. He just said, "Your Majesty, what about Zhang Liang, Mi Dong and others?"
He said jokingly: "Is it possible that His Majesty wants to use Zhang Liang?"
Ying Zheng's thoughts were brought back a little by Chen Ke. He glanced at Chen Ke and said helplessly: "What are you going to say?"
"Even if I am confident and reuse talented people, it is impossible for me to use Zhang Liang."
"Zhang Liang has been with us for generations. Although he has many talents, I don't dare to believe him."
"He is loyal to Han."
"I am also willing to fulfill his loyalty."
After hesitating for a moment, Ying Zheng seemed to have finally made up his mind: "That's it. Let's kill him after the trial is concluded."
"There is also Mi Dong. Kill him as well and bury him in the Chu royal family's cemetery."
This is a great grace. The cemetery of the Chu royal family is no longer the place of the Chu Kingdom. It can still occupy such a piece of land. It is partly because Ying Zheng is thinking about the old love in his heart.
After all, when Ying Zheng just came back, the Queen Mother Huayang and others took care of him, and the Queen Mother Huayang and others were all Chu people.
Including Mi Bazi and Empress Dowager Xuan, who were also from Chu.
Chen Ke responded slightly.
And win
Zheng Ze turned his head, looked at Li Si and said, "Since your nine-rank official system has been implemented, let's reform the court according to that system."
"I'll just watch it."
"Don't delay this matter just because you have other things to do."
"There are many things that need to be done together, and we can also do some of them."

clan mansion
Chuanyang Jun returned to the clan house, closed his eyes slightly, and thought about what he encountered today.
He felt that the memorial he suddenly encountered today did not come suddenly, but was premeditated. But why Chen Ke would do such a thing... This is still a question.
He opened his eyes, looked at the people around him and said, "There is nothing we can do for now."
"But..."
Chuan Yangjun chuckled. He looked completely different from before.
"Every bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit."
"I don't believe it anymore. Is there anyone really dissatisfied with the enfeoffment system? Chen Ke was just scared out of his wits before."
"If there was really a chance, how could he not seize it?"
"Why can't friends of my enemies be my friends?"
He looked at the boy next to him and said, "Go and send a greeting to Chen Fengchang quietly and tell him that I have something to discuss with him."
The boy responded in a low voice: "Here."….

Baijia Palace
Xiao He walked in the Baijia Palace, looking calm and unhurried. Cao Shen and Chen Ping beside him were smiling together.
The three of them looked at each other.
"Tell me, what is the teacher singing?"
The first literary competition was hosted by Chen Ke, who now also serves as the deputy palace chief of the "Hundred Palaces".
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the three of them calling Chen Ke teacher.
Chen Ping said with a smile: "What else can I sing?"
"Teacher and Your Majesty, one has a red face and the other has a white face. They just want to clean up the dust in this room."
"It's just that Your Majesty seems to be hesitant about this matter."
"That's why this morning's scene happened."
Cao Shen said lazily: "My views and yours are exactly the opposite."
"Actually, it was the teacher who hesitated, not His Majesty."
"Your Majesty is the cruel one."
Xiao He said nothing and just kept walking forward.
The three of them now hold the position of doctor in Baijia Palace, so they also teach some books in Baijia Palace.
Instead, he said: "No matter what happens, we just have to do our own thing."
"Why worry about other people?"
"His Majesty is fine, we are fine. Teacher is fine, so are we."
"Why bother with other people?"
This is indeed true, but Chen Ping didn't take it seriously: "The things in the court can only be said and done."
"You and me, me and him, him and him."
"Is there anyone else? Everyone is on a big ship. The only difference is who the owner of the ship wants to get off."
Chen Ping's voice was a little sad.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."
He looked at Cao Shen beside him and said, "Brother Cao, I have heard these days that Ambassador Feng brought back a lot of news from the Western Regions?"
"What do you think of the Western Region?"
"Is it really like the sky filled with yellow sand and nothing in our impression?"
Cao Shen shook his head, with caution in his voice: "A piece of yellow sand, nothing?"
"You're joking."
"There is simply
Treasure land. "
There was something sharp in his eyebrows: "Actually, everyone in the Prime Minister's Office is considering this matter these days."
"Which method should we use to get what we want from the Western Regions?"
Chen Ping burst out laughing when he heard this: "What method should be used?"
"What does Da Qin want? Does it need other methods?"
"Fight! Kill!"
Xiao He had some different opinions at this time: "At this time, Great Qin cannot go to war with the Western Regions."
"It's not that we don't have the ability, it's that the Xiongnu and Baiyue are eyeing us at this time. If we start a war with the Western Regions, then we will be attacked on three sides."
"Besides, how many years has it been since Great Qin became stable?"
"It's only been a mere two years. Many things have not been fully digested, and the Guizhou leaders have not lived a good life for a few days."
"Waging a war at this time is not a wise move."…
As the three of them talked, they walked towards their respective palaces in Baijia Palace. The three of them taught in different schools, so naturally at a certain time, they needed to go their separate ways.
...........
Zhangtai Palace
Now there are only two people left, Ying Zheng and Chen Ke. They looked at each other and smiled, and then Chen Ke complained and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you just attack Lord Chuanyang?"
"Why do you have to do something like this?"
"After this incident, I will never be able to escape the reputation of being arrogant and domineering."
Ying Zheng just smiled and shook his head and said, "Are you afraid of such an arrogant and domineering reputation?"
He leaned on the table behind him and felt very comfortable.
Although the chairs and stools invented by Chen Ke were very comfortable, Ying Zheng always felt that it was more comfortable to sit directly on the ground.
Especially after the "Earth Dragon" was created.
He felt the warmth under his body, looked at Chen Ke and said, "You are really good at making this earth dragon."
"I have already promoted it a few days ago, and now people in many counties and counties across the country should have already laid down their kangs."
Ying Zheng sighed and said, "It's just that the leaders of Guizhou don't have that much spare money after all. I looked at the statistics from the past and found that most of the leaders of Guizhou in the world still use kangs, and only a few use earth dragons."
Chen Ke didn't feel surprised. This was not something difficult to understand.
Even in later generations, not everyone in the world will have access to heating, and most people in the north will have access to it.
"Why should your Majesty worry about this?"
"It's not a big deal."
He smiled and said: "Earth dragons are relatively expensive to build and are not something ordinary people can use."
"With the kang, they can survive this winter."
"Have you seen the thing that I asked the people from Heibingtai to send to Your Majesty?"
"That thing is really a good thing that can save the world's leaders from freezing to death. It is also one of the most important resources in the future."
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "You mean that thing called "coal"? "
He said with some curiosity: "Actually, I don't quite understand why that thing is called "coal"? "
Chen Ke was speechless for a moment. He actually didn't know why it was called "Coal". Wasn't he accustomed to the name in his previous life?
So he changed the subject lightly: "Your Majesty, didn't you read this in a book?"
"I don't know why either."
He yawned and said, "Your Majesty, when the world has been stable for a year and a half, you can start looking for coal mines in the world."
"The promotion of coal mines is very important, and of course there is another thing that is also very important."
Chen Ke sighed softly: "That's the thing found in the Yin Shang Continent."
He squinted his eyes and whispered: "If you use gold
If we compare silver, coal mines are silver, and that thing called oil is gold. "
"The only difference is more than one or two points."
"So, we must occupy the oil in the Yin Shang Continent. The Shang King came back with Xu Shiling this time."
"What he is probably asking for is that the Qin army is stationed in the Yin Shang Dynasty to help him conquer some places."
"There are barbarians with no heritage or ethnicity. The weapons in their hands are even stones, wood, etc."
"It was easy for the people of Great Qin to conquer them, but what Great Qin obtained was oil as precious as gold."
"and....."
Chen Ke suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty, do you know?"
"How suitable is the Yin Shang Continent, especially the land occupied by the Shang Kingdom, for growing food?"
"As long as we can control the Yin Shang Continent and make it the granary of Great Qin, Great Qin's land can be used for other things."
"You never have to worry about food."
Ying Zheng looked at Chen Ke and said, "Where is it suitable for growing food?"
There was something sharp in his eyebrows: "Then why don't you shoot it down?"
Chen Ke just said: "Your Majesty, thousands of miles away, even across an ocean, how can we control such a large area of land?"
"Do you want the clan to be enfeoffed there?"
"Even if we are enfeoffed there, how can we ensure that the people there can always obey the imperial court?"
"So, it is better to support a force that is already there. Their culture is influenced by the culture of Da Qin, and their technology relies on the technical support of Da Qin."
"They have no ability but they occupy such a large area of land, which is like a child walking on the street with a lot of money."
"And how do they keep their gold?".
Sweet and sour wage earner
