"How to do how to do?!"

Xiong Qi stayed in the inner room, thinking hard.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Xiong Qi is usually in the house, he will give orders, if there is no very important matter, he must not be disturbed.

At this moment, he stood up immediately and asked, "What's the matter?"

The people outside the house did not come in, but said: "Xiangbang, there is a visitor outside the door, who is said to be from Shouchun!"

Xiong Qi was stunned when he heard the words: "Shouchun?"

Then he asked: "How many people? Do you have Daoming's name!"

Said outside the door: "There is only one person. It seems that he is in his early twenties. This person has brought the seal of the King of Chu. He only said to visit and refused to say anything else."

Xiong Qi immediately stepped forward, opened the door, and said, "Bring it in quickly."

Who is the king of Chu?

That's his father, Xiong Wan!

This person came alone, no matter whether it was business or private, it was impossible for him to disappear.

Soon after.

The young man was brought in front of him, and then he closed the door and retreated, leaving the visitor alone. At this moment, Xiong Qi was drinking water to quench his thirst, and when he saw the visitor, the unswallowed tea spewed out.

He yelled: "Father Jun? You, who are you?"

The young master immediately knelt down on both knees, paid respects and saluted, and said: "Little brother, I have met my brother!"

Chapter 676 Three Letters to Yingchuan Chaos

Wuhou Mansion.

Li Si suddenly came to visit, in the guest hall.

At first, when Li Si appeared in Ganquan Palace, he seemed to have heard what Su Jie and Zhao Ji said. Su Jie and Zhao Ji found out about this the next day, and they also knew that Li Si went to see Ying Zheng later.

To Su Jie's surprise.

Li Si seemed to have done something that he didn't know.

Immediately, Su Jie immediately understood the key point. He thought that Li Si might have used some means of self-protection. Su Jie knew best who Li Si was. Not only would Zheng not be able to recite his merits, but he was afraid that there would be no room for Li Si in the whole of Qin.

For Li Si, his great future will be completely wiped out.

Su Jie looked at the reserved Li Si, and said with a smile: "Now that you are an honored guest, this Marquis has not had time to congratulate you yet, so why be so cautious, take your seat quickly."

Li Si repeatedly said: "How dare Li Si be so polite as Marquis Wu, Li Si came to visit Marquis Wu today to apologize for his crimes."

Su Jie's expression changed, and he pretended to be puzzled and said, "Oh? Why didn't I understand what Ke Qing said?"

Li Si's forehead was sweating, and he immediately said: "Marquis Wu, Li Si did not intend to offend at all. Today, I want to ask Marquis Wu to forgive Li Si and forgive Li Si's self-assertion."

Su Jie's face was slightly cold.

He drank the bottle of wine in front of him alone.

Only then did Li Si speak eloquently.

Li Sidao: "I do this because I just can't bear to see the empress dowager's anxiety is getting worse, the king's mind is hard to calm down, and it makes Marquis Wu, who is kind to Li Si, feel regretful. To Li Si, the king, Marquis Wu, and the queen mother, They all have great kindness to their ministers. Even if Li Si died a hundred times, he wanted to share the worries of the King Wuhou and the Empress Dowager Wu. At that time, Li Si had no time to discuss the situation with Wuhou in detail. After listening to Li Si's words, the king not only did not blame him, but his heart was happy, but the matter has come to this point, Li Sidan is right or wrong, I ask Marquis Wu to decide, if Marquis Wu wants to kill Li Si, Li Si will never disobey."

After speaking, I bowed deeply.

Li Si was also very nervous, of course he didn't want to die, but, for him, the king must not be violated, but no one in the state of Qin knew the importance of Marquis Wu.

Although he got the Queen Mother's permission, in the end, he still had to pass the Marquis Wu.

After Su Jie listened, although his face was expressionless, waves were also stirring in his heart.

He murmured, "Empress Wu?"

Su Jie couldn't help but look at Li Si in front of him, and secretly said: "This person is really a great talent."

Ordinary people would have been paralyzed with fright when they encountered such a thing, how could they be like Li Si, who was quick to use his wits, and went to find the king to make side attacks, and finally saved the day.

Su Jie smiled immediately and said: "Li Si, sit down, as you said, I really owe you a huge favor."

Li Si was overjoyed, and then sat down at the desk.

Su Jie came down, poured a glass of wine for Li Si himself, and said without hesitation: "To be able to think of such a way to combine loyalty and righteousness is enough to prove your talent and wisdom, and to not forget the kindness of the past is a testament to your strength." Loyalty, such a loyal and intelligent person, how can I not entrust you with a heavy responsibility? You don't have to be so cautious. At the beginning, when I recruited you, I knew what kind of person you are. I suppressed you this time, but I just don't want to see you go the wrong way and end up dead in the future, now it seems that you should understand Ben Hou's painstaking efforts, and you have lived up to Ben Hou's expectations of you."

Li Si said excitedly: "Li Si received Marquis Wu's praise today, this lifetime is enough."

Su Jie smiled and said: "The road ahead is long and long. Daqin needs you. In the future, this Marquis will regard you as his confidant, and this Marquis will fulfill your life's wishes for you."

Hearing this, Li Si finally let go of the stone in his heart.

He worked so hard, isn't it just for this sentence.

Wuhou in front of him can be said to be one of the most powerful people in the world.

Compared with Ranghou back then, it was even worse.

Is there any reason not to make him extremely happy.

Li Si went on to say: "Marquis Wu, Li Si has been thinking for a long time, and just happened to think of one thing, which may have something to do with Marquis Wu, maybe it has something to do with the Empress Dowager."

Su Jie asked in astonishment: "What's the matter?"

Li Si laughed and said: "Marquis Wu didn't know something. When Marquis Wu destroyed the three Jins, there was an uproar in the court. The king was overjoyed, and after discussing with the ministers, he finally decided to add a hereditary noble to the twenty nobles of Qin Fa! The title was bestowed on Marquis Wu, becoming the first hereditary Marquis in the Qin Kingdom for hundreds of years, passed down from generation to generation."

Li Si went on to say: "On the day of Marquis Wu's triumphant return, His Majesty was going to award him the next day, but because of what Li Si said that night, His Majesty withdrew his decision to award this time. When Li Si asked why, His Majesty didn't say much, but Li Si could tell that the king seemed to have other considerations! Thinking about it now, it might have something to do with the queen mother, and the king must have found a better way to award rewards!"

Su Jie asked: "Then why do you think it has something to do with the Queen Mother?"

Li Si thought for a while and said: "This is just the suspicion of my subordinates. The king has the utmost love and sex for the Queen Mother and Marquis Wu. However, Marquis Wu and Queen Mother Wu are still in vain names. Your Majesty is smart. On that day, Li Si saw it. In fact, your Majesty, Not completely ignorant, since he knew it and agreed to the title of Empress Dowager Wu, how could he not consider that in the future, it might be possible to use fiction to disguise reality, but the king has many concerns, and what will happen next is definitely beyond Li Si's guess. "

Su Jie finished listening.

There was a shock deep inside.

Yingzheng was the first emperor, and he made great achievements for thousands of years.

However, sometimes, I have to say that Ying Zheng is sometimes a little silly.

It's like he said to people like Mengshi Zhao Tuo that if the Qin Kingdom encounters a catastrophe in the future, you should not be kings and guard the frontier for me. to his soldiers.

However, it was precisely these silly actions that others saw as that made the courtiers throw their heads and blood for him from the bottom of their hearts.

Sometimes Su Jie couldn't figure out Ying Zheng's thoughts.

Generally speaking, what Su Jie can guess is that Ying Zheng would rather bear the infamy himself than those around him.

That this time.

What does Ying Zheng want to do again?

Suddenly, outside the guest hall, a figure came Yingying.

Su Jie looked up, stood up immediately, and said, "Ma'am!"

Hastily greeted her, and made Du Shaan sit by her side.

Seeing that Dusha looked uncertain, she hesitated to speak.

Li Si quickly got up and said: "Li Si has been bothering you for a long time, Madam must have something important to do when she comes, so Li Si will leave first."

Su Jie said: "No need, ma'am, Li Si Nai is the confidant of the Marquis, there is nothing you cannot say to him."

Liston was taken aback for a moment, and then he was moved and delighted.

Only then did Du Sha take out three letters from her sleeve, all written in silk, she placed them in front of her one by one at the moment, and said: "Yesterday, my husband was not in the mansion, and I got three letters, one of which is It’s from Yingchuan, and the other two are from Shouchun and Jicheng, after I read it, I think the letter from Jicheng should be discarded, but the letters from Yingchuan and Shouchun are of great concern.”

Dusha said so.

Su Jie and Li Si could not help but glance at each other.

Su Jie was already thinking about the matter of Shouchun. Calculating the time, it must be that Li Yanyan had already given birth to a child. This is probably a good thing. Wasn't it just to achieve this goal that he worked hard at the beginning?

But Du Sha didn't look happy at all.

In Yingchuan County, there are now fake guards Teng and county guard Han Fei. What happened.

Su Jie picked up one of them.

Unfold it and take a closer look. It is written that Jicheng is preparing to make a large-scale change of soldiers and waters. It started to be built in a big way, and now it is waiting for the chaos at Yanmen Pass, so as to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Su Jie glanced at it.

This result is inevitable, that is, after Li Mu defeats the Hu people, he can start to clean up the country of Yan, which is not a particularly important matter.

immediately.

Su Jie opened the silk about Yingchuan County, and looked at it carefully, "What, Confucianism is making trouble? Who is Kong Yin?"

When Li Si heard this, he immediately said, "When Li Si was in Chu State, he met Kong Yin. He is a descendant of Confucius, and most of them lived in the Confucius Temple of Chu State!"

Du Sha said: "This matter must be discussed publicly in the court tomorrow. This letter was sent by Han Fei in his own name. It must be to let my husband know the reason for the Confucian chaos in advance."

At first.

Su Jie captured South Korea and established it as Yingchuan County. In order to appease the people, implement Qin's county system, and win the government, he specially asked Han Fei to be the governor of Yingchuan for consideration.

Su Jie looked carefully.

I was very surprised in my heart.

When will this Confucianism come out and intervene?

After reading it, Su Jie handed the silk to Li Si and said, "You and Han Fei have been classmates for many years. Confucianism and Legalism have never been in harmony. From what you can see, what is the purpose behind this?"

……

Xiong Qi fell into deep thought and shock when he heard negative Chu's words.

He never imagined that he still has such a younger brother. The difference is that he was born to a folk woman, but the son of Xiong Wanshu who stayed in Confucianism for many years.

And his mother is the daughter of King Zhaoxiang.

Chapter 677 The Purpose Behind Yingchuan Chaos

After Xiong Qi listened, he looked at Li Chu in astonishment, and said: "Shang Jun's Qin law has been practiced for more than a hundred years, and the people of Qin have not felt any inconvenience, and there is no voice from the government and the public to revise the law. You have no solid foundation, and the other is reform. Wuming, isn’t such an empty talk just to make people laugh? He’s saying, even if you want to change the law, you’ve traveled thousands of miles. As the son of the king’s father, you didn’t try to improve the state of Chu, but came to the state of Qin to reform the law. What’s the reason for this? , how beneficial is it to the state of Chu?"

Listen to Xiong Wan's scolding.

Ling Chu didn't get angry at all, instead he said: "Qin people have no voice to practice the law, is it because they are afraid or feel inconvenient, this is something that Lu Chu doesn't dare to say, but my brother has been in Qin for many years, so he should be a hundred times clearer than Lu Chu , and understand the disadvantages of Qin Law. In the past, the power of Qin Law was born in accordance with the times. Over the past hundred years, the general situation of the world and the livelihood of the common people have changed greatly. Shackles, I have heard that the king of Qin is wise, but An Neng didn't know the truth, so he told the king of Qin that his elder brother, as a prime minister, shouted together, and the government and the people were under the shackles of Qin law. Will it change?"

After hearing this, Xiong Qi was slightly taken aback.

Then he sneered and said: "Don't talk about Qin, just say that since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the purpose of any reform must first be clarified. For example, the purpose of Shang Jun's reform is to enrich the country and strengthen the army. Fa, what is the purpose of your reform? Can your purpose be beneficial to Qin? How can the King of Qin believe it. "

Ling Chu immediately said: "The purpose of revising the Qin law is to abandon the harsh laws at home and the sharp soldiers and violent soldiers outside, so that Qin law can establish the world with lenient punishment and clear law, and make the country rich and powerful. There is a difference here, brother Can you see it?"

Xiong Qi was covered with cold sweat at one word.

Suddenly speechless.

It is good for the Qin State to restore the country and strengthen the army, but it is unheard of for the lenient punishment to be imposed on the inside. This is undoubtedly an overthrow of the Qin State's century-old system.

Xiong Qidao: "You, you!!"

Ling Chu then said: "The division here is the difference between domineering and kingly way, the difference between Shang Jun's law and Confucian rule! Dare I ask my brother, once Qin State reforms, will it be beneficial to Chu State?"

Xiong Qi finally understood the meaning of negative cud and why he came here.

Xiong Qi asked: "Once the reform breaks into chaos, the rest of the nations will rush forward with all their strength. At that time, Qin's century-old prosperity and strength will be destroyed in one day. Although I don't want to see Qin destroy Chu, how can I say it? I am also the Xiangbang of the Qin State, and I will never see Qin Guo go to that step in the hands of the truth. For the sake of you being my younger brother, I allow you to leave. Today's words, the truth is nothing hear."

Negative laughed loudly and said: "Elder brother thinks highly of younger brother too much, but as elder brother said, once the political reform breaks out, the state of Qin will be in danger, but elder brother can see that other courtiers, including King Qin, can't see it." come out?"

Xiong Qi turned his head to look, and shouted sharply: "What do you mean?"

Negative Dao: "The Qin State is lenient with the king's way. This is the only way for the Qin State. If it continues to follow the legalist approach, how will the country survive for a long time? However, once the Qin State implements the Confucian lenient law, it will take at least 20 years. Although the national strength may be weak, the courtiers of the Manchu court will never see the chaos of the Qin State, so they will definitely seek the law and slow down. If only the law is slowed down, the goal will be achieved. Conquering other countries, during the reform period of the Qin State, the Chu State launched a large-scale naval force, and divided the world between the north and the south of the Qin State with the danger of the great river. , when the time comes, as the elder brother who put forward the kingly way and lenient law, he will be able to accomplish the merits of the Shang monarch in one fell swoop, and become a veritable prime minister in the Qin court, and he will be praised by the world and his reputation will be spread."

Xiong Qi looked at Negative Chu, shocked speechless.

"This."

Negative Chu continued: "The purpose of Confucianism in this kingly reform is only to save Chu, not to make Qin fall into chaos, but to make Qin prosperous, not to make Qin weak, but actually to make Chu strong. Brother, do you understand?"

Negative words.
