The next day, after the Qin Dynasty meeting, Zhao Gao picked up Zi You and came to Zhangtai Palace. Zi You and Ying Zheng sat in the back garden of Zhangtai Palace.
"Sir, what did you say to Mr. Weiyang?" Ying Zheng asked.
"It's nothing, Lord Weiyang still understands the righteousness. I just told Lord Weiyang some opinions about the clan." Ziyou told Ying Zheng about the conversation between himself and Lord Weiyang.
After listening, Ying Zheng pondered for a while and said
"In fact, Li Si has also told me about this matter. After the Qin State conquered the Six Kingdoms, its territory was destined to be far greater than before. If it was just a system of prefectures and counties, it would not be able to control the entire country. The survivors of the Six Kingdoms need to be appeased, and the system of prefectures and counties It requires a large number of reliable officials to govern, which the Qin State does not have, so the best choice is to have counties and counties to check and balance each other in parallel with the feudal states. However, if these feudal states are large, it will be a danger to the central government and it is easy to cause a return to the Spring and Autumn Period. "Ying Zheng said.
Today's Qin State is creating a brand new country. All the rule of law, systems, etc. are brand new and require enough time to explore. Moreover, Qin State cannot make big mistakes. Once a big mistake occurs, it may cause a complete collapse. Now The people of Qin have become accustomed to which country they are from and have a strong sense of belonging to the region. If they are forced to return to the Qin Kingdom, everything will be easy if they can feed themselves and survive. Once there are problems with the policy, and those old people from the Six Kingdoms are included, Instigation by others can easily lead to rebellion.
"Actually, I agree with what my senior brother said, but we can't seal the country. The consequences of sealing the country are huge and not easy to solve." Ziyou said, although there is a solution to sealing the country by extending the grace order, it can only be done by The world must be completely stabilized. Ziyou doesn't know what the Qin State will be like by then. Even if he leaves his plan, he doesn't know whether the King of Qin will implement it at that time, so it's better to solve it now.
"What can you do, sir?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Let the clan go out. The clan and the Confucian disciples go hand in hand. The clan represents the king and stabilizes the place. The Confucian disciples are responsible for educating the old country thoughts that blur the minds of the people." Zi You said, in fact, Zi You's idea is to lead the team, only the team with unified ideas It’s easy to lead, but the person leading the team must be one of our own. Apart from the clan, there is no more suitable person for this one of our own.
The clan is only responsible for stabilizing the place. It represents the King of Qin. It is nominally more powerful than the local officials, but has no real power. As for the reward, it is reputation and food. After all, who can refuse the position at the top of the family tree? Moreover, the food town can also ensure that the clan can benefit, and the clan must also have certain power to check and balance local officials.
In fact, Ziyou had another idea to bring Baijia in. Historically, the reason why the Six Kingdoms elders were able to quickly rally the rebels was because the Baijia people worked hard behind the scenes. Except for a few people, those Six Kingdoms elders could still watch. In addition, the others are just some people digging melons and cracking jujubes. The specific operations of the anti-Qin cause are the disciples of hundreds of schools of thought who oppose the Qin State.
"It's a solution, but is the clan willing?" Ying Zheng asked the question he was most worried about. After all, this was an indecent and not a good thing.
"Don't you, Your Majesty, believe in the clan? The clan has always wanted to contribute to the Qin State, but they have focused on balancing with the courtiers. Why don't you, the king, visit the clan and meet the young people in the clan to see if they are willing? Are you willing to pay for Qin?" Ziyou said with a smile.
Ying Zheng nodded, remembered this matter in his heart, and asked about today's important matters.
"Sir, the day of the coronation is getting closer and closer. I don't know why I always feel uneasy in my heart. I always feel that someone is going to take action."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Everything is under control. The day of the crowning is destined to be uneven, but there won't be any big trouble." Ziyou said.
"I hope so." Ying Zheng said.
After Ying Zheng asked Zi You some questions about running the country, the two separated. Zi You met an acquaintance on the way out of the palace, Li Hun, now named Zhang Han. Zhang Han saw Zi You's first It was a moment of salute.
"Zhang Han, meet sir."
"Work hard and you will get the future you want." Ziyou patted Zhang Han's shoulder and said.
"Yes, sir." Zhang Han said to Zi Xing.
Zhao Gao glanced at Zhang Han. He was a little dissatisfied with Zhang Han, because Zhang Han's arrival directly took over the intelligence organization of Ying Zheng that he had been responsible for before. This made Zhao Gao feel a little unhappy. Ziyou naturally saw that He understood Zhao Gao’s thoughts and said
"Don't worry, the net will be handed over to me after Marquis Wenxin retires. I don't have time to deal with the net, so you can manage it for me."
After Zi persuaded Zhao Gao, he was overjoyed, but his face still did not show it. He was just worried about whether he could manage the snare well. Zhao Gao had heard about it for a long time, and he was very excited about being able to master the snare in the future, but more The main concern is whether he can live up to Ziyou's trust and manage the trap well.
Ziyou had thought about handing the net to Zhao Gao. Although Zhang Han was also suitable to manage such an intelligence assassination organization, it has to be said that Zhang Han's methods were still far from Zhao Gao, and Zhang Han was more powerful than Zhao Gao. The Killer Group is more suitable for an organization like the Shadow Guard, which has a lot of security tasks. People who are not ruthless and have weak means cannot use a weapon like a snare.
"Don't worry, during this period I will let you gradually come into contact with the management of the snare. Only when you can manage it well will I hand it over to you." Ziyou said.
"Thank you for your cultivation, sir," Zhao Gao said.
After Zhao Gao sent Ziyou out of Xianyang Palace, Ziyou did not return to his own courtyard but came to an inn. He sat in a private room on the second floor and looked at the Proton Mansion below. Yan Dan was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea at the moment. , as the hostage of Yan State, Ying Zhengnian did not embarrass Yan Dan too much due to his experiences in Zhao State when he was young, so Yan Dan's life is still very good, at least he can walk freely in Xianyang City.
Ziyou watched Yan Dan tidy up his clothes and prepared to go out. As Yan Dan went out, several people quietly followed Yan Dan. Looking at the movements and behaviors of these people, Ziyou began to guess the identity of the other party.
It didn’t take a second thought to know that the knight-errant one was from the Mo family, and the beggar was from the snare. The one who seemed to walk smoothly but had hollow and lifeless eyes was the Yin-Yang puppet of the Yin-Yang family. But there was another person who exceeded Ziyou’s expectations. An old man looked at It seems like he is wandering aimlessly, but in fact, he can accurately appear behind Yan Dan from other paths every time.
"This old man is a bit interesting." Ziyou looked at the old man and said.
There has always been a mystery about Yan Dan, which is why the Yin and Yang family chose Yan Dan. Yan Dan abducted Concubine Yan. It seems that the two of them escaped from Qin and escaped from the control of the Yin and Yang family, but perished in Yan. On the eve of , Concubine Yan was directly captured by the Yin and Yang family, which showed that the Yin and Yang family had been keeping an eye on Yan Dan and Concubine Yan, but they still let Yan Dan and Concubine Yan go, which made Zi You a little confused.
Ziyou put down his tea cup and clapped his hands. A boy came in from outside and said to Ziyou:
"Sir, what are your orders?"
"Keep an eye on Yan Dan and that old man, especially that old man." Ziyou said.
"Yes, sir."
On the surface, this inn is an inn, but in fact it is Luo Wang's stronghold in Xianyang, and it is also the trading place where Luo Wang picks up customers.
Zi You stood up and left the inn. At this time, Concubine Yan still appeared by the bridge. The Moon Goddess is the representative of the Yin Yang family in Xianyang, and her current identity is that of a fledgling disciple of the Yin Yang family. She is not a Yin Yang family at all. Dongjun, and her biggest hobby is watching the river view from this bridge.
At this time, light rain fell in the slightly gloomy sky. Concubine Yan stood on the bridge and watched the rain hitting the river. The pedestrians on the side quickened their pace.
Looking at the same scenery, Concubine Yan couldn't say she wanted to vomit, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Yan Dan, who was dressed in black and walking slowly, and her mood suddenly became depressed. Just when she was about to leave, Yan Dan stopped her.
"Miss Feiyan, we meet again." Yan Dan saluted Concubine Yan and said.
"Yes, what a coincidence." Concubine Yan said with a smile.
"Girl, do you like the river view here very much? But I think this place is not as good as the Yishui River in Yan State. Whenever I hear the sound of the waves of Yishui and the sound of friends playing the piano by the river in my dreams, I always shed tears." Yan Dan's voice was filled with emotion, and his whole person was filled with a sense of loneliness and sadness as if he were a stranger in a foreign land.
If it were an ordinary girl, she would have fallen for a mature male god like Yan Dan who was melancholy and lonely. But Concubine Yan didn't know why she felt that Yan Dan was very artificial. She thought of the scene when she was dressed in white and rode a white horse into the grassland alone. The scene immediately made a judgment. Homesickness is inevitable, but you came to Qin with a mission. As a man who thinks about homesickness and expresses his sorrow every day, it is better to think about how to return to Yan. .
Seeing that Concubine Yan was deep in thought, Yan Dan felt that there was something wrong in her heart, so she continued.
"If possible, I hope to invite the girl to see the scenery of Yishui together. Unlike Xianyang, Yishui is full of generous and sad momentum, just like the heroes of Yanzhao, impassioned."
Yan Dan felt that these mysterious, graceful and melancholy characters he had established should be able to match Concubine Yan, because he saw that Concubine Yan was also a guest living in a foreign country, and because Concubine Yan's accent was not that of Qin, he thought that Concubine Yan was The concubine will have the same idea as him.
Concubine Yan looked at Yan Dan and said
"No, please respect yourself"
Before Concubine Yan finished speaking, a faint voice reached their ears,
"Compared with the impassionedness of Yishui, I personally think that the banks of the Weihe River in Qin are more spectacular. Unlike Yishui, which makes people feel sad, the surging Weihe River makes people feel the majesty of heaven and earth, the heroic surging, thunderous The sound of the waves makes people feel heroic, full of hope and pride for the future and the world. This is like the difference between the State of Yan and the State of Qin. The heroic sound of the waves of Yishui only rings for King Yan Zhao, while the sadness is destined for the State of Yan. The ending, and the heroic spirit of the Wei River resonates for the entire Qin State, and its non-stop flow to the east is like the Qin State’s ambition to go eastward, which will last forever.”
After these words were spoken, not only Yan Dan and Yan Fei's expressions changed, but also the pedestrians on the bridge stopped and looked at the source of the sound with approval and pride in their eyes. Zi You, who was dressed in white, was holding a The candied haws on a stick walked slowly towards the direction of the bridge.
The expressions of Yan Dan and Yan Fei changed again. One was nervous and uneasy, while the other's eyes were full of surprise. However, they thought that someone must be watching around them and kept gesturing for Zi You to leave. However, Zi You didn't seem to see Concubine Yan's eyes. warn.
Concubine Yan's warning seemed unnecessary to Ziyou. This was Xianyang. Although it couldn't be said to be his hometown like Songhai, in Xianyang Ziyou was still not afraid that Donghuang Taiyi would dare to take action in the city. The Yinyang family wanted to stand against Qin. country, then we must abide by the rules of Qin.
Zi You walked up the bridge unhurriedly and stood next to Concubine Yan. An oil-paper umbrella opened and covered the two of them. The rain curtain also separated Concubine Yan and Yan Dan. Yan Dan looked at the nightmare. As an ordinary Ziyou, the fists in his sleeves clenched unconsciously.
Yan Dan watched Concubine Yan's gaze towards Ziyou change from the indifferent look she had just directed towards her, to surprise, joy, and a feeling of sourness in her heart, and she said to Ziyou.
"Yan Dan pays homage to Sir. I wonder when Sir came to Xianyang?"
"I just arrived yesterday. Did Prince Yan enjoy his stay in Xianyang?" Ziyou glanced at Yan Dan and said.
"Dan came here for the sake of peace between Qin and Yan. There is nothing good or bad, and the Qin State treats Dan very politely. Dan is very satisfied." Yan Dan said, and the latter sentence of satisfaction was half true and half false. Compared with the tragic situation of being a hostage in the State of Zhao when he was young, the State of Qin treated him well, but he was not willing to stay in the State of Qin as a hostage. His ambition was no less than that of Ying Zheng.
"In this case, it would be better for Prince Yan to stay in Zhizi Mansion with peace of mind for the sake of peace between Qin and Yan, rather than just wandering around all day, which could easily be misunderstood." Ziyou said.
"Yan Dan has learned a lesson." Although Yan Dan was feeling aggrieved, he could only endure it because now he was in a state of being dependent on others.
"Don't have some thoughts. Once the limit is exceeded, it will no longer be a family affair." Ziyou reached out and took Concubine Yan's hand to leave.
The moment Ziyou held her hand, Concubine Yan's face turned red. She was a little excited and followed Ziyou towards the house. When Yan Dan looked at the two people leaving and wanted to say something else, the surroundings Two people walked out of the crowd and saluted Yan Dan and said
"Prince Yan, it's raining heavily, please come back to Zhizi Mansion."
The words of the two people were not mixed with any emotion, and there was no room for retention. Looking at Yan Fei Yan Dan leaving, she still walked towards the direction of Zhizi Mansion with a calm expression. Yan Dan's heart was already bleeding on the way. How could he not notice that the concubine deliberately approached him? He originally thought it was a test from the Qin State, but after inquiring from the disciples of the Zhongmo Family in Xianyang, he found out that this was Dong Jun of the Yin Yang Family.
Coupled with the recent exchanges between the Yin and Yang family and the Qin State, Yan Dan thought that he had the opportunity to leave the Qin State. However, he did not expect to be intercepted by Zi You halfway. Yan Dan walked towards the Proton Mansion with his head lowered, and suddenly stopped. He stopped and looked around. The falling rain seemed to have stopped. Yan Dan's expression changed but soon returned to normal. He continued to walk towards the Proton Mansion, and the falling rain continued to fall one after another.
It’s all done today. I spent all night last night and finally finished the paper. I’ll update it normally in the future! ! !
