No one knows whether Qin Prince Chu and Lu Buwei finally discussed the outcome that night. However, after this night, Lu Buwei got closer to Gong Zizheng and recommended a eunuch to Zhao Ji.
Qin's ships traveling around various countries were like a huge stone thrown into a calm lake, causing thousands of waves.
Lord Xinling of Wei State stood by the rolling Yellow River, with complicated thoughts in his heart. After a long time, he turned around and sighed to his cronies: "Back in the Fenhe River, I really should have killed her at all costs."
There are two things that Lord Xinling regrets most in his life. One is that he should not have shown his ability in front of the King of Wei, which resulted in him being feared by the King and staying away from the court for many years. If he had not wasted these years, maybe the Wei State would not have fallen to this point.
Second, he underestimated many fish and let her escape back to Qin.
Lord Xinling could completely foresee that as long as the Qin State did not fight among itself, it would only be a matter of time before the Six Kingdoms were conquered.
The confidant pondered for a moment and comforted: "We are much better than Lian Po. After all, many fish were taught by General Lian."
Lord Xinling...that makes sense. Lian Po finally defeated the Yan army and won an outlet to the sea for Zhao. However, he encountered an incident involving Qin's ships. I'm afraid he would be afraid again after returning to Zhao.
How miserable!
Lian Po naturally knew his future situation.
On the way back to Zhao, except for the Zhao soldiers at the bottom who were beaming with joy, the generals who knew the inside story were all in heavy moods.
Lieutenant General: "General, will your Majesty..."
Lian Po has gone through many ups and downs. Even if he was insensitive to politics in the past, he has learned well now: "Just do your best for the general and have a clear conscience."
The lieutenant sighed inaudibly.
——
"Haha, haven't you seen that the Chu State is like a turtle with its head shrinking, scared by our ships and afraid to show its head!" The merchants from Bashu vividly told their stories at the stalls.
"Hey, let alone Chu people, even I will be scared when I see a sea ship."
"Look, she is indeed a goddess! Who else could build such a powerful sea ship?"
A businessman from other places whispered: "But isn't Bai Gong in charge of the shipyard? I heard that he is from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
The people of Shu who were watching retorted: "He is so capable, why is it not created by the Eastern Zhou Dynasty? Therefore, it is still the credit of the Commander-in-Chief."
Foreign merchants knew that the Shu people admired Commander Xu and did not dare to refute. They could only change the subject: "The Eastern Zhou Dynasty was destroyed by the Qin Kingdom. I wonder if Bai Gong will hold a grudge."
This kind of wild speculation is never heard by smart people, but someone who really has good intentions asked Bai Gong.
Bai Gong was stunned for a moment, then blinked in confusion: "What does the rise and fall of a country have to do with us civilians?"
Those who do good things can't help but be stunned. Yes, normally, the common people don't care who the monarch is, because the person who governs them is the prince and the noble.
The Seven Kingdoms are fighting back and forth, and the ownership of the territory changes too quickly. The common people have to spend all their energy to even fill their stomachs. What feelings are there?
So, when did the Shu people think that they were from Bashu County of Qin State and were proud of it?
It's time for Xu Junwei to break all the old systems and unite Bashu closely! People from Bashu will not work hard for a year and eventually starve to death in winter!
"If you have enough talent, you know etiquette!" the good person sighed.
Bai Gong joked: "The night school was not in vain!"
An hour before the earth completely falls into darkness, the students of the Academy will take turns to come to the night school to be tutors.
The night school is actually a spacious open space outside the city. The content taught is not advanced, just common words in life.
Because the night school is free, ordinary people who lack night entertainment are willing to join in, and even those who don't listen can learn a few words.
Later, all the scholars were willing to come to the night school to give one or two classes. After teaching the daily literacy content, they could speak freely and promote their own academic ideas.
"Sometimes they even fight. I didn't expect that the masters would fight, just like the shrews at the head of the village fighting!" A good person really likes to join in the fun. Whenever various schools of thought quarrel over academic issues, he will be right next to them. Look, if you are influenced by what you hear and what you see, the export can be done.
While Bai Gong was taking a break from his busy schedule and chatting with his fellow enthusiasts, a spy was caught in the shipyard!
Bai Gong's face turned green and he arrested all the perpetrators and spies.
The meddler shouted: "What an injustice! I don't know him!"
Bai Gong sneered: "What a coincidence, you come to me and there are spies in the shipyard?"
Those who do good things have a hard time talking about it. They are just joining in the fun, so why do they have to pay for it themselves?
A group of people escorted the two people to the county governor's house.
Because the shipyard is so important, it is directly under the jurisdiction of many fishes.
After hearing the whole story, many fish asked the offender directly: "You really don't know this person?"
The good guy cried with snot and tears: "Your Excellency, you are unjust. I really don't know you!"
"If you take a closer look, have you seen him before?"
The troublemaker's eyes were dim with tears, and he glanced quickly, instinctively wanting to shake his head, but suddenly made a movement, as if he had thought of something.
Many Fish: "Just answer truthfully. If you can provide valid clues, you will be rewarded!"
The troublemaker was heartbroken, closed his eyes and said loudly: "I once saw him and Meng Huo of the Chamber of Commerce talking for a long time in the depths of the dense forest."
The spy was worried. How could there be anyone in such a remote place in the evening?
Spy: "It's more suspicious if you go to a place like that!"
The troublemaker hesitated, and finally said with a blushing face: "I heard that Meng Huo and Yaduo have been quarreling frequently recently. Some people said that they saw Meng Huo going out in the middle of the night. There must be a woman hiding outside. I was curious for a moment, what kind of woman is she? If she is more beautiful than Yaduo, I will follow him secretly."
Many fish looked up and down at the troublemaker. They were ordinary and ordinary, thrown into the crowd with no sense of existence. No wonder Meng Huo didn't notice him.
The spy was so aggrieved that his success failed just because of this bit of sexy news?
The spy took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness and hit the pillar directly to death.
Many fish didn't even look at it. Bloodstains spread all over the ground, and they ordered: "Capture Meng Huo!"
"Here!"
The emperor was so angry that he laid his body thousands of miles away. Many fishes were angry and Bashu was shaken!
The guards quickly assembled, blocked all city gates and ferries, and headed straight to the west of the stream.
The tense and chilling atmosphere let the people know that something big must have happened!
Meng Huo, who was still accompanying his son in the west of the stream, was absent-minded and often poked his head out to look outside the door.
Yaduo clenched her fists, her eyes were slightly red, she lowered her head and said softly: "I still remember when we got married, you said that the queen is the best person in the world."
"Yes." Meng Huo said perfunctorily.
Yaduo endured the sourness in her heart: "You once said that what you want most is to have your family together and have enough food and clothing."
"You are young and ignorant, who doesn't want to live a better life?" Meng Huo hugged the child tightly, and after a few moments, handed the child to Yaduo, "The Chamber of Commerce has something to do, I will go there."
