After Ying Han was sent to labor service, the news was naturally heard by Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng put down the memorial in his hand, looked at Zhao Gao with curiosity and asked
"Are you saying that Yinghan was sent to do corvee service by Lord Weiyang?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, after Weiyang Lord and Mr. Wei finished talking that day, he was sent to do corvee service by Weiyang Lord when he returned home. I heard that Weiyang Lord bribed the person in charge of the construction in order to allow Young Master Han to join the corvee team as soon as possible. The purpose of being the supervisor of the State of Zheng is to get Master Han to serve as a corvee as soon as possible." Zhao Gao said with his head lowered.
After Zhao Gao received the news, he was extremely unbelievable. This was the first time that a clan prince went to do corvee service. Even King Huiwen was demoted to a commoner and traveled around Qin. Secretly, Duke Xiao also sent people to protect him. Traveling to Qin and serving as corvees are two different concepts. Traveling to Qin cannot be said to be punishment, but education, but serving as corvee is an extremely serious punishment.
Moreover, Weiyang Jun's son actually didn't make any big mistakes. Although he was a bit arrogant and lazy, and he liked to fight with the sons of other powerful people, he didn't make any big mistakes. He was not sent to do corvee service. And it was after meeting Ziyou.
"Do you think it was Mr. Weiyang who said something to Mr. Weiyang?" Ying Zheng pondered. The news he received was that Ziyou and Mr. Weiyang met. Mr. Weiyang turned over the table on the spot and then left straight away. Yinghan was Weiyang. Mr. Jun had a son, and he was his only son. He was usually very precious, but now he was suddenly sent to do corvee service. This was so surprising.
"Now the clan members are going to Lord Weiyang's house one after another, and even the great clan master in Yongcheng has been alarmed." Zhao Gao said.
"Mr. Ziyou has returned to Xianyang. Maybe the king can ask him." Gai Nie saw Ying Zheng's doubts and suggested.
Ying Zheng nodded. No matter how anxious he was to be crowned, he also had some uneasy thoughts in his heart, and he also wanted to discuss the specific matters of the crown with Ziyou.
"Zhao Gao, go make arrangements."
"No." Zhao Gao saluted and walked out.
At this time, Ziyou has returned to the house that Ying Zheng gave him. Next to this house is Lu Buwei's Wenxinhou Mansion, which is enough to show the status of Zi You in Ying Zheng's heart. After Zi You left, this house was occupied every day There are people cleaning, and the servants inside are all trustworthy people selected by Ying Zheng, but there has never been a manager, only cleaning servants.
Black and white Xuanjian could only temporarily act as the person in charge, instructing the servants to start moving things, and soon Zhao Gao came to Ziyou's house.
"Greetings, sir." Zhao Gao saluted Zi Xuan.
"Well, why did you come to me?" Ziyou asked.
"It's about Weiyang Lord. Your Majesty is going to visit you in person for the purpose of pro-government. Marquis Changxin has been making frequent moves recently. Your Majesty is a little worried. Moreover, there are rumors that Marquis Changxin, Lao Ai, is a fake eunuch and the Queen Mother is pregnant with two children." The son will be raised in Ganquan Palace." Zhao Gao said to Ziyou.
He once followed Ying Zheng to Ganquan Palace and indeed saw two children in Ganquan Palace, but he did not dare to say anything more. He only knew that Ying Zheng was indeed furious.
"Don't worry, this is Lao Ai who deceived the Queen Mother. Lao Ai is indeed unclean, but he can't do ethical things anymore." Ziyou said, Lu Buwei and he had written letters, including this incident about Lao Ai. When Ziyou found out about this, he had to admire Lu Buwei for his firm grasp of human nature, and how he plotted against Lao Ai step by step.
"This?" Zhao Gao looked at Ziyou, he didn't know what to say.
"Lao Ai used to be a retainer of Marquis Wenxin, and he handled the matter of Luo Sheng for Marquis Wen Xin. There is a technique to shrink Yang into the body in Luo Sheng, but there is no way to restore it. Do you understand?" Ziyou said lightly.
Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, looking at Zi You's confident look, and then thinking about how quickly Lao Ai had risen in power over the years, he realized that the rising Chang Xin Hou seemed to have been calculated from the beginning to the end. Thinking about Lu Buwei's recent tolerance towards Lao Ai, Zhao Gao thought that Lu Buwei was afraid of the Queen Mother, but does Lu Buwei really need to worry about the Queen Mother Zhao Ji in the harem now?
"Then how should I report back to the king?" Zhao Gao hesitated and asked. Although he was the servant of King Qin, he was not qualified to know this kind of thing.
"Just tell the king to let him prepare for the pro-government with peace of mind. As for other matters, I will handle it. Is there anything new in Xianyang recently?" Ziyou asked.
"Many families from hundreds of families have come to Xianyang recently. The six-fingered black man of the Mo family secretly visited Qin Mo and the young master of the Mo family. Farmers also opened restaurants in Xianyang. Mr. Gongsun Bai of the famous family came to Xianyang with his disciples. It seems that they want to join the Dianke Mansion. The Yin and Yang family had secretly contacted the king before. When the king was out of the palace to experience life in the countryside, Yueshen and Da Siming visited the king and said that they could help him stabilize the domestic situation. Use the Yin and Yang family to help the king unify the world." Zhao Gao said.
"Where is the Taoist family? I heard that the Taoist family has also come to an end?" Ziyou asked. The Taoist family has not been involved for a long time. Whether it is the Tianzong or the human sect, they all think that they are just passers-by in the world. What they want They are all detached, but the split occurred due to differences in detachment.
"The relationship between Taoism and the State of Qin has always been very close. This time I contacted the king secretly in the hope of participating, but the king did not agree immediately and said that he would make a decision after discussing it with Mr. Zhao Gao."
"Actually, Taoism is a boost for us. The combination of Taoism and Confucianism among hundreds of schools is enough to suppress other sects." Ziyou said.
Confucianism and Taoism have many connections, but Taoism and Confucianism clashed in the Han Dynasty. The emperors in the early Han Dynasty were all Huang Laowei who governed the country, but Liu Xiaozhu wanted to solve the Xiongnu, and Huang Laowei was no longer suitable. The emperor's needs, and at this time the unification of Gong Yangru solved Xiaozhu's ideological problems. The great revanchism provided Xiaozhu with a reason to attack the Xiongnu. From then on, Taoism withdrew and Confucianism came to power. In the process, Confucianism and Taoism A life-and-death battle was started.
"Is there anything else?" Ziyou asked.
"The hostage of the Yan Kingdom, the former Crown Prince Dan, is now pursuing Dong Jun of the Yin Yang family. When the king found out, he sent someone to warn Yan Dan, but Yan Dan did not stop pursuing him. The king could not kill him directly, nor could he imprison Yan Dan. Dan, we can only send people to keep an eye on him to prevent him from contacting Dongjun." Zhao Gao looked at Ziyou's expression when he said this.
Ying Zheng knew that Dongjun had been with Ziyou for a long time. In Yingzheng's heart, Dongjun was already Ziyou's. Yan Dan still went to provoke Dongjun. If it weren't for killing Yan Dan now, it would cause trouble in the Yan Kingdom. Ying Zheng was so angry that he even sent troops to attack. Ying Zheng had already thought of ways to deal with Yan Dan. It was not that Qin was afraid of Yan, but the biggest thing now was that he was in charge. It was best for Qin not to have any accidents.
"This Yan Dan still doesn't give up. Don't worry about this matter. I will handle it. Yan Dan is not as simple as it seems on the surface." Ziyou said.
"Is it just a proton? It's not worth your attention, sir." Zhao Gao said.
"Don't underestimate Yan Dan. His ambition is no less than that of the king, but he is too scheming and the city is too deep. The former king and the king were once hostages. I will handle this matter." Ziyou said.
"It's sir. The king said that he wants to visit you to discuss the crowning matter." Zhao Gao said.
"I will meet with the king tomorrow and we can discuss it then." Ziyou said. Now that hundreds of families are gathering in Xianyang, he does not dare to let Ying Zheng leave. Especially at this time, although Xianyang is Ying Zheng's hometown, Zhuanzhu's intention to leave Nie Zheng was still fresh in his mind, and he was afraid of something unexpected happening.
The water in Baijia is deeper than it looks on the surface. Gui Guzi doesn’t know what he is doing now. Apart from Gui Guzi, some old guys don’t know their whereabouts either. Zi You is most afraid of these old guys causing trouble. Who is it? I don't know if they have any back-ups. After all, there are things like Qinglong and Chiyou weapons in this world that can harden an army of steel.
"Yes, sir." Zhao Gao said.
After Zhao Gao got the answer Ying Zheng wanted, he hurried back to the Qin Palace and went to the inner hall of Ganquan Palace to meet Ying Zheng.
"What did you say, sir?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Your Majesty, sir, I said that I will come to meet with you tomorrow." Zhao Gao said, and continued, "Sir, you asked me about the recent events in Xianyang. I told you about the Yin-Yang family and Taoism's contact with your Majesty, and asked your Majesty to punish you."
After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he bowed his head and knelt on the ground. He knew his status. Leaking the news about King Qin was a serious crime in itself, but he had to answer Ziyou's questions. Ziyou was kind to him. A volume of " "Shang Shu" made Zhao Gao extremely angry with Ziyou.
"You are right about this matter. There is no need to hide it, sir. If you don't tell me, I will tell you tomorrow." Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Gao and said. He himself was not disgusted with this matter. Zhao Gao would just say it. Yes, Ziyou believed it very much, and Zhao Gao had taken the initiative to confess, which meant that Zhao Gao still had him as the king in his heart, so he naturally did not need to be angry.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Gao said.
"You can go down too and meet Mr. tomorrow." Ying Zheng said.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Zhao Gao resigned, Ying Zheng continued to look at the memorial in his hand. Since Qin's memorials began to use unified paper, it has become much more convenient to write letters and give instructions, and what Ying Zheng has in his hands are all important things that Lu Buwei has streamlined. , most chores and trivial matters were handled by Lu Buwei.
The six-fingered black man in the Mohist stronghold listened to the news about Ziyou reported by the Mohist disciples.
"Master Xiangli and the young master are still not sure about seeing me?" the six-fingered black man asked.
"Yes, Juzi. Master Xiangli is researching new things, while the young master is angry because of the paper problem and doesn't want to see anyone." The Mohist disciple said.
"Okay, you go down." Six-fingered Black Man said.
He also knew about the paper. Mo Ying wanted to know the raw materials of the paper, but he sent someone to keep an eye on Songhai for a long time. During that time, the Confucian disciples purchased all kinds of strange things, and the places where they were sent to the paper manufacturing workshop were also various. There were all sorts of strange things, but fortunately, Mo Ying was able to catch some clues. She discovered that Confucianism had recently purchased a lot of granite. Although she didn't know the secrets of granite and papermaking, Mo Ying still purchased a lot.
Later, the paper-making place also revealed that granite seemed to have something to do with paper, so Mo Ying thought about sending someone to buy some granite to see Confucianism's reaction, but Confucianism directly increased the speed of income, and Mo Ying concluded that granite and paper had something to do with it. Because of the relationship, in order to give Mo family a sigh of relief and to mock Confucianism, Mo Ying sent people to search for the only remaining granite in Songhai market, which caused the price of granite to soar.
As a result, Mo Ying purchased a large number of high-priced granites. However, when Mo Ying returned to Momen and asked people to start using granite to make paper, he discovered that the paper had nothing to do with the granite. After that, the Little Sage Village secretly released another news. A large amount of granite was produced during the renovation of Little Sage Manor and was bought by someone at a large price, which made Little Sage Manor book a banquet at an inn for four days.
Only then did Mo Ying realize that he had been played as a fool by the Confucianists. This was a great humiliation to Mo Ying, who had always regarded himself as the beloved daughter of heaven. From then on, Mo Ying refused guests in seclusion.
As for Xiangli Guan, he knew very well that the Six-Fingered Black Man was here to move reinforcements and hoped that Qin Mo could help him investigate Yan Dan. However, Qin Mo had never contacted the Mo family, and the Mo family also despised Qin Mo who had defected to the Qin State, so Xiangli Guan It would be weird to help him.
"Do you want to go see Yi Jian Ziyou?" Six-fingered Black Man murmured to himself. Ji Wuye didn't have a chance with Jingke for a while, so he had to find foreign aid.
In the Yin Yang family's headquarters, Dongjun and Yueshen were also holding the news that Ziyou had returned to Xianyang. Zhao Gao visited Ziyou late at night, which already made people certain that Ziyou was on the side of Qin, and then What came was Donghuang Taiyi’s order, just don’t let them provoke Ziyou. Yueshen continued to contact Lao Ai and Qin King Yingzheng. Dongjun was responsible for contacting Yan Dan. Looking at Donghuang Taiyi’s order, Dongjun was angry but also no way.
Concubine Yan felt that she had no interest in Yan Dan at all, but she didn't know what Yan Dan was thinking about pursuing her all the time. If it weren't for Donghuang Taiyi's order, Concubine Yan would have wanted to kill Yan Dan with one sword.
"Yan Dan is related to the secret treasure Phantom Sound Box that was lost by the Yin Yang family. Sister, please be patient a little longer." Moon God also felt that it was not worth it for Concubine Yan.
The Yin-Yang Family's Phantom Sound Treasure Box was stolen by a traitorous disciple during the war between the Yin-Yang Family and the Mohist Family, and was finally captured alive by the Mohist Family. At the same time, the Mohist Family's Phantom Sound Treasure Box fell into the hands of the Mo Family, but according to their investigation, the Phantom Sound Treasure Box The box may not be in the hands of the Mo family, but in the hands of the royal family of the Yan Dynasty, according to the records of the Yin and Yang family. The Magic Sound Box has a close connection with Qin and Yan, so Donghuang Taiyi allowed them to come into contact with Qin and Yan Prince Dan.
But Concubine Yan herself was resistant to Yan Dan, especially when Concubine Yan felt that Yan Dan had other purposes for contacting her, she became even more repelled.
After Ziyou returned to Xianyang, Concubine Yan felt that there was a high probability that she would be able to get rid of Yan Dan's harassment.
