"Look, Mr. Liu, this is a tea cup. The tea cup is exposed, and the hot air is rising. Everyone can see it."
"Of course,"
"The tea is inside the teapot. Even though it is boiling hot, it does not reveal even a little bit."
Chen Ping said with a smile.
Xiao He somewhat figured out what Chen Ping meant, but he didn't quite understand.
He knew that Chen Ping meant to 'lead' Xiang Yu to a place with only their people and kill him.
But... how?
Lead to where?
He couldn't understand this.
Long Qie scratched his head. Although he didn't understand what Mr. Chen Ping said, he still felt it was very powerful.
"Barracks."
Liu Bai uttered two words with joy in his eyes.
Chen Ping nodded with a smile: "Since this person signed up to be a military strategist, how can he calm the people by explaining the military's attack methods to the people?"
"On the contrary, in order to enhance the soldiers' understanding of military formations, the library deliberately set up the forum for military strategists in the military camp..."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao He's eyes suddenly lit up!
Chen Ping's plan...
wonderful!
The best thing is...it's so true!
The common people would not think there was anything wrong, because military books have always been about controlling uncirculated knowledge.
Xiang Yu won't feel inappropriate because he has the pride of being a member of a noble family!
The other participating schools of thought will not feel inappropriate, because they have always looked down upon military strategists and thought it was harmful to the national highway!
Chen Ping suddenly understood.
"Hahaha!"
"Great idea!"
"Great idea!"
"Great idea!"
Liu Bai laughed loudly and said three clever tricks in a row!
"Hey hey hey!"
"Thank you, Mr. Liu."
Long Qie chuckled and was very humble!
Damn it, Lao Zheng is indeed Liu Gong’s number one counselor. Such a difficult strategy can be easily grasped by Lao Zhi.
How about wearing shirts from now on? Or should I buy a set of luxurious clothes and a folding fan?
"Master, Master."
"There is someone outside the house asking to see you."
"Say it's the imperial censor."
At this moment, Chen Ying opened his mouth to report outside the door.
This boy's role as a housekeeper is a bit different from Uncle Chen's. Uncle Chen likes to sweep the floor in the courtyard after finishing his work, while Chen Ying goes to the door to accompany the concierge after finishing his work.
According to him, the concierge is the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion and cannot be disrespectful.
"Zhao Huaizhen?"
"welcome!"
Liu Bai was startled for a moment, and immediately stood up to welcome the guests.
Of course, I just greeted him in the hall, not actually walked to the door to welcome him in.
Regardless of this slight difference, what is reflected in it is the doorway to the court.
One is the official position. Going up to the top to welcome the lower officials has the meaning of win-win.
The second is the current position of the two of them. Since His Majesty the First Emperor wants them to be political enemies, they can only fight against each other.
Of course, neither Liu Bai, nor Xiao He, Chen Ping, or even Long Qie, who went to the door of his house to curse, had a bad impression of the new imperial censor.
He is so sensible and a good person.
Even when Liu Bai was impeached, he only chose some innocuous things to impeach.
...
About tea time, Zhao Huaizhen walked into the hall: "Zhao Huaizhen, I have met Liu Xiang!"
A smile appeared on Liu Bai's face, and he was about to say, "Brother Huaizhen," but looking at this face that was even more weathered than Uncle Chen, he really couldn't say it!
"Master Yushi, please sit down."
Helpless, Liu Bai could only address him by his official name.
To be honest, compared to what happened when Zhao Huaizhen came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today, Liu Bai wanted to ask, what on earth did this 'peer of the same age' go through to become like this?
Could it be that... I fell in love a hundred times?
"Thank you, Prime Minister Liu!"
Zhao Huaizhen spoke in a deep voice, still looking as deep as ever.
"I don't know why the imperial censor came to the prime minister's house today. What's the purpose?"
Liu Bai waved his hand, motioning for the attendant to serve tea, and then asked gently.
Seeing the tea being served, Zhao Huaizhen was stunned for a moment, then picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then put it down and stopped drinking tea.
"Prime Minister Liu, Huaizhen is here today to inquire about something."
"Now that hundreds of forums have been established, will Da Qin's comments take on a taunting tone?"
"If there are anti-Qin remarks, will Prime Minister Liu have any countermeasures?"
"If these people's remarks are appropriate, will Prime Minister Liu use them for our great Qin's benefit?"
Zhao Huaizhen spoke in a deep voice.
There were no meanderings in his words, he just said what he meant.
This look made Liu Bai secretly praise in his heart.
This kid...has obviously worked hard. He knows that he doesn't like the polite politeness in officialdom, and he just makes his point clear.
"If there is any rebellion against Qin, Doctor Zhao doesn't know about the true counterattack?"
"If it can be used by our Great Qin, it will be their blessing. I will naturally not be stingy."
Liu Bai said calmly.
His answers to these two questions were beyond Zhao Huaizhen’s expectations!
The person who rebelled against Qin, Liu Bai's counterattack was already very explicit, was the Jin Yiwei.
As for the people used by Da Qin...according to Zhao Huaizhen's intention, he wanted to ask Liu Bai how to recruit them.
But Liu Bai's answer was a blessing to these people.
The two opposites are reversed, but it is a...gifting mentality.
Zhao Huaizhen looked at Liu Bai again, as if he understood why this young man, who was three years younger than himself, was able to enter the power center of the entire empire in such a short period of time.
"Brother Huaizhen, regarding political affairs, it doesn't make much sense for you to have private conversations with the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is bright-minded, and you can see everything he does in the political records."
"When you come today, I have something personal that I want to tell you."
Liu Bai sighed and stared directly at Zhao Huaizhen.
Feng Jie made a bad start. He didn't want the position of the imperial censor, who was responsible for supervising all officials, to look like this in the eyes of future generations.
"Xiang Liu, please speak!"
Zhao Huaizhen looked solemn and spoke in a deep voice.
He had the illusion that the 'peer' in front of him, who was younger than himself and had a younger face than himself, had experienced many,
"If a person wants to do something in this world, there is a starting point."
"If a person starts from too low, he will be buried throughout his life."
“If you start from a higher starting point, you may be able to accomplish things when you are young that many people will never be able to accomplish in their lifetime.”
Liu Bai knocked on the desk and spoke slowly.
Zhao Huaizhen was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily.
As the eldest son of the Zhao family, he has never relied on his family's power, or... the family has never thought of giving him any help.
No one knows the perseverance of Sanchuan County Governor who led the troops to put down the rebellion as a civilian official.
No one knew that Zhao Huaizhen walked into the mountains, forests and countryside in the ice and snow, just to see the real appearance of the people.
No one knew that when the people in the county respected the so-called immortal master, the county guard was so frightened that he even had murderous intentions.
starting point....
His starting point is not low, but he has never relied on his starting point.
And now, what Liu Bai means is: the position of imperial censor is his new starting point for Zhao Huaizhen!
The twenty-five-year-old imperial censor has a very high starting point!
But to accomplish something, you must be worthy of this starting point!
"You are so...why isn't this true?"
"The world of Great Qin is very big, and the Great Qin of the future will be even bigger."
"With your age and your current official position, you have to keep up with the pace of Great Qin."
Liu Bai spoke with great emphasis.
He only had one meaning in his words:
Zhao Huaizhen, you... It doesn't matter if you are a political opponent in a political struggle! But...don't hold back!
