Chapter 658: Guo Kai, the most loyal minister of Zhao, is in action! Ying Chengxuan: Lao Deng, it’s time to pay the rent!
Hearing the words ‘Dune Rebellion’, which directly changed the history of Zhao State, Zhao Wangqian’s expression changed.
Both King Wuling of Zhao and King Yan of Zhao had a mature and stable eldest son as the crown prince who was convinced by both the government and the public. They both had a favored concubine. The favored concubine gave birth to a child who was very popular with them. My favorite little son.
King Zhao Wuling and Zhao Wangyan also made the same choice. They both deposed the eldest son from the position of prince and designated the younger son as prince. The younger son eventually inherited the throne.
After King Wuling of Zhao abdicated to the throne, the eldest son Zhang and Tian Buli conspired to ambush King Huiwen who succeeded him, but Prime Minister Feiyi killed himself to break the plot, and was eventually suppressed by Li Dui and Gongzi Cheng.
However, after Li Dui and Gong Zicheng suppressed the rebellion, they sealed the palace of King Zhao Wuling, starved King Zhao Wuling to death, and ousted King Huiwen. Gong Zicheng became the prime minister and Li Dui became the secret service officer. The two jointly controlled the Zhao Guochaotang.
How similar the former eldest son Zhang is to the current eldest son Jia!
How similar are the former King Huiwen and his Zhao Wangqian!
What’s even more coincidental is that Li Dui, who committed regicide and usurped power, was the great-great-grandfather of Li Mu, the number one man in the Zhao Kingdom’s military today!
This damn sense of déjà vu!
What's the difference?
The first is that King Zhao Yan passed away, but King Zhao Wuling took the initiative to take the Zen throne. King Huiwen was looked after by King Zhao Wuling, but King Zhao Qian had no one to look after him.
The second reason is that Li Mu has never interacted with other young masters, but has only publicly expressed his appreciation for the eldest son Jia!
Imagine, if Li Dui had supported the eldest son Zhang, then King Huiwen might not even be able to become a puppet!
Suddenly realizing that all the necessary conditions for recreating the Sand Dune Rebellion have been gathered, and even worse, Zhao Wangqian's face suddenly turned pale.
Worried about his life, Zhao Wangqian subconsciously turned to Guo Kai for help: "I am in such a critical situation?!"
"Master, how should I break the situation!"
"Should Gongzi Jia and Lord Wu An be put to death together?!"
"And Zuo Shi (Chu Long) who supported Lord Wu An in leading the expedition, are they going to be put on trial together?"
< br>Guo Kai comforted in a warm voice: "Don't worry, Your Majesty! Don't worry!"
"Although Gongzi Jia was dismissed from the position of crown prince, he is still quite famous in the court and the public."
"For the reputation of the king and the stability of the court, we must not touch it lightly!"
"Now the power of Qin's country is Da, Wu'an Jun is one of the few generals in the court who has won against Qin. "For the survival of the country and the stability of the ancestral hall, we must not move lightly!"
"As for Zuo Shi?" As a minister left behind by the late king, how can the king accuse him of a crime? ”
Zhao Wangqian's eyes flickered a little.
If Guo Kai agrees with his statement, then Zhao Wangqian will definitely be wary of Guo Kaixin.
But Guo Kai actually vetoed Zhao Wangqian’s proposal!
Wang Zhao inevitably trusted Guo Kai a little more.
Zhao Wangqian pretended to be anxious and said: "This will not work, and that will not work. Master, do you want to sit back and watch others make the same mistakes as King Huiwen!"
Guo Kai said sincerely: "The Lord humiliates me to death!"
"As an auxiliary minister left by the late king, and also the prince's wife, how can I sit back and watch the king fall into danger?"
< br>"My intention is to first accuse Gongzi Jia of being imprisoned for his crimes, and then the king will come forward to pardon his death penalty and change his sentence to imprisonment."
"In this way, it can not only show the king's benevolence, but also keep Gongzi Jia in custody. ”
“When the internal troubles are stabilized, Lord Wu’an will lead his army to attack and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.”
"Unexpectedly, the king's ambition!"
Zhao Wangqian thought carefully about Guo Kai's plan, and was shocked to find that Guo Kai's plan had no harm to him and almost no benefit to Guo Kai.
Is Guo Kai really as loyal a minister as he said?
Zhao Wangqian's eyes were filled with emotion and trust: "Fortunately, Master, I have a plan for me."
"Otherwise, even if I die, I don't know whose hands I died. ! ”
Guo Kai bowed slightly, so that his eyes were level with Zhao Wangqian, and his voice was gentle but firm:
"I am willing to go through fire and water for the king, no matter what!"
Zhao Wangqian He cupped his hands in gratitude and shouted: "I thank you, Master!"
Looking at Zhao Wangqian who bowed and cupped his hands, Guo Kai revealed a hint of hidden sneer at the corner of his mouth.
——
at the same time.
Shu County is the county seat of Chengdu County.
Lu Buwei nestled next to a pile of ice, holding a roll of silk in his hand, letting the maid fan him in the cool breeze, with a bright smile on his face.
Zhuang Jia scooped out a spoonful of glutinous rice from a wooden barrel placed in a bronze ice mirror and poured it into Lu Buwei's palace. He reminded helplessly: "My lord, you have been watching for three days. ”
“Let’s drink some ice wine first to relieve the heat.”
Lu Buwei took the wine and drank it in one gulp.
The cold and refreshing glutinous rice fell into his stomach down his throat, making Lu Buwei feel even more comfortable. He laughed heartily and said, "I can't put it down, I can't put it down!"
"I've never been wrong. Lord Chang'an. "
"He is not afraid of the stench, he is not afraid of being criticized, and he insists on treating the gold juice, and finally gets something that benefits the people."
"What does it mean to love the people?"
"This is to love and benefit the people!"
"The Chang'an Lord's single action is better than all the ingenuity of the old man!"
Although Lu Buwei made a lot of efforts during his reign, Many strategies have been formulated, but the lives of the Guizhou leaders are only slightly better, which is far from the standard of "loving and benefiting the people".
Ying Chengyu rarely interferes in government affairs, but with this gold juice treatment of excrement, Ying Chengyu can make the life of the head of Guizhou in the world much easier.
Not to mention the Chang'an paper, Chang'an plow and other objects that Ying Chengyu developed before.
Lu Buwei sighed with emotion: "I'm so old, I'm so far away from the Lord of Chang'an!"
Zhuang Jia filled up the glutinous rice wine for Lu Buwei and said with a smile: "After the Lord of Chang'an destroyed Chu, he found traces of me."
“I was originally planning to go north to Zhao to continue my relationship, but I was forcefully dragged back to Da Qin by Lord Chang’an.”
“On the way, I had a hearty chat with Lord Chang’an, and Lord Chang’an The words impressed me deeply."
Lu Buwei asked curiously: "Oh?"
"What are the words?"
Zhuang Jia raised his head and said seriously: "Technology is the primary productive force!" Lu Buwei looked puzzled: "Technology is the primary productive force?"
Lu Buwei knows every word.
But how come these words were combined into words that Lu Buwei couldn’t understand at all!
Zhuang Jia explained: "Chang'an Jun believes that the ability of all peoples to change nature, conquer nature, and produce food, soldiers, armor, cloth and other items is productivity." Continuous advancement means that productivity is constantly improving.”
“The higher the productivity, the more food and cloth will be available, and it will be easier for all people to eat and wear clothes.”
"Technology is the primary productive force!"
Lu Buwei thoughtfully said: "That's why Chang'an Lord has just focused on studying craftsmanship and farming, and developing Chang'an plow, Chang'an paper, and gold juice to treat excrement! ”
"In Chang'an Jun's opinion, as long as the so-called productivity is improved, the purpose of caring for the people can be achieved?"
At this moment, Ying Chengyu, who liked to travel, fish and grow flowers before he was sixteen years old, is here There is a reasonable explanation for the sudden plunge into wood and gold juice after the age of sixteen.
It’s not because Ying Chengyu likes craftsmanship and farming.
Ying Chengyu is just practicing his own way!
But Zhuang Jia shook his head: "I asked Lord Chang'an the same way at that time."
"Chang'an Jun said that technology is the primary productive force, but it is not all of productivity."
"National policies, laws, roads, etc. all affect productivity."
"And even productivity However, if the rich are exploited to the maximum extent, the poor will still have to struggle for a meal and a piece of tile."
"However, Changan Jun's ability only lies in technology."
"As for the rest, Lord Chang'an doesn't understand, so he doesn't think about it."
To Lu Buwei's ears, Ying Chengyu was clearly saying that it would be up to Ying Chengyu to grow enough corn to feed everyone in the world.
But the matter of distributing these millets to the people of the world requires Lu Buwei to think about countermeasures.
After being silent for a moment, Lu Buwei suddenly laughed heartily: "Mr. Chang'an is asking for rent from me."
"Now the old man's food, clothing, and residence are all in Chang'an. Your help.”
“Since Lord Chang’an wants to ask for advice, how can I refuse?”
"Of course, the Lord of Chang'an is not afraid that the King will discover that this is an old-fashioned strategy?"
Zhuang Jia said seriously: "I thought that it was just an advice and suggestions. In view of the friendship between the Lord of Chang'an and the King, , Your Majesty shouldn’t think too much about it.”
“Since Lord Chang’an did this, he already knew it.”
A trace of excitement flashed in Lu Buwei’s eyes: “Let’s go.”
“I am old, but I cannot owe anyone any kindness.”
"Since Lord Chang'an has something to ask for, I should give it some thought."
Zhuang Jia couldn't help but smile.
Lu Buwei is not a man of idle temper. Even after he was dismissed as prime minister, he would summon many retainers to discuss the general situation of the world every day.
After moving to Chengdu and being warned by Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei could not express his thoughts or even put them on bamboo slips. He was so depressed that he became negative and decadent.
But now, Lu Buwei’s eyes lit up!
Zhuang Jia bowed his hands and saluted: "Your Majesty, benevolent and righteous!"
Lu Buwei was so excited that he returned to the study to think about countermeasures.
But the servant Wei An strode into the backyard, gasping and holding his hands in his hands, shouting: "Master, Chang'an Jun's five hundred soldiers are here to see you!"
Lu Buwei looked back in astonishment: "Are you sure it's the hexagram master?"
Wei An nodded vigorously: "The seals are all correct."
"When the head of the family entered Shu in the past, it was Gua Fu who led Chang'an Lord's personal soldiers to protect him. If it weren't for Gua Fu's intervention, I would have died in Neishi County long ago. I will never admit the wrong person!"
Lu Buwei and Zhuang Jia looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes.
Who doesn’t know that Guafu is deeply trusted by Ying Chengyu and even often serves as Ying Chengyu’s spokesperson?
Now that Ying Chengyu has sent the hexagram master, there must be something important!
Lu Buwei said firmly: "Please come in quickly!"
Picking up his lower clothes, Lu Buwei ran all the way into the front hall and saw the fortune teller already waiting here.
"The five hundred masters of the hexagrams under Lord Chang'an's command are here to meet Marquis Wenxin!"
Lu Buwei returned the greeting with his hands in hand: "There is no need to be more polite. Lord Chang'an sent the five hundred masters of the hexagrams here, but Is there anything important?"
The Guafu took out a bamboo tube from his arms and held it up with both hands: "This is the handwriting of the family leader, please read it."
Lv Buwei has verified it and sealed you! After sealing the letter, he opened the bamboo tube, took out the silk and scanned it quickly with his eyes.
[The prince of Chang'an became a dragon and paid homage to Marquis Wenxin from afar. 】
【Today, the Qin Dynasty has experienced continuous battles externally and abundant domestic yields, which is indeed a prosperous scene. 】
【However, today Qin is actually in danger. 】
【The king intends to govern the people of Guandong and the officials at the grassroots level, but the people of Guandong and the officials at the grassroots level have second thoughts. 】
【In order to solve this problem, the king only rests for two or three hours a day at most recently. There has been no good news in the harem for half a year. 】
[Due to my lack of intelligence, Your Majesty, I can only deal with the pack of wolves alone, becoming increasingly haggard but making little progress. 】
【I look at it and sigh in sorrow all night long! 】
【There are many virtuous people in the world, but I think that only Marquis Wenxin can solve the king's worries. 】
【Therefore, I specially ask Marquis Wenxin to return to the court to help the king! 】
