Chapter Eleven Self-defeating
Ling Fen was silent. It was impossible for the six countries to merge. If they separated, they would have to face the old situation of the seven countries' war. It seemed that they were facing a dead end.
Ziying secretly snickered. If Lingfen knew history, he would know that sometimes war is inevitable.
After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu directly enfeoffed 18 princes and kings with different surnames. He was known as the Overlord of Chu, equivalent to the Emperor of Zhou, and was superior to all kings. However, due to the contradictions in the anti-Qin, other princes and kings were dissatisfied with the size of the enfeoffed territory and had disputes.
.
This gave Liu Bang the opportunity to counterattack. After Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, he ordered that no one with the surname Liu could become king, and then he killed all the ministers with heavy troops in order to achieve peace.
The hatred in people's hearts cannot be solved through words. War and blood are more powerful words.
As a giant of the Mohist family, Ling Fen always regarded war as a condition for settlement, which doomed him to failure.
"I can't figure it out, what does King Qin think we should do?" Lingfen's eyes were blank. The problems faced by the giants during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods were all similar. The unification of the Qin Dynasty gave Lingfen new problems.
When a person is confused, that is the best time to brainwash him.
Ziying smiled slightly, it's my turn now.
Ziying said seriously, "The princes have been at war for more than a hundred years, but it only took us less than 20 years to unify the Qin Dynasty. Although the countries have shed a lot of blood in these 20 years, at least it is better than a hundred years of chaos."
Lingfen thought for a moment and nodded reluctantly.
"Although the descendants of the Six Kingdoms are unwilling to accept it, they are unable to restore the country. It is a pity that my grandfather..." Ziying pretended to sigh.
Lingfen suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Ziying, "Ying Zheng is a tyrant, what's the pity?"
Good boy, I'm afraid you won't ask, but if you ask, I can brainwash you.
Ziying sighed and continued, "My grandfather was born as a dancing girl. He was looked down upon by others since he was a child. He followed his mother to the State of Zhao as a hostage at a young age. His father died before he was an adult. When he unified the six countries, there were assassins from time to time.
Conspiracy. After the reunification of the six kingdoms, my mother had an affair with Lao Ai to murder the throne. My grandfather no longer felt safe in the world, which led him to become a tyrant."
Lingfen had never heard of the word sense of security, but he could vaguely understand its meaning.
"If my grandfather can pacify all the people, then that will be the non-attack that sir wants." Ziying said.
Lingfen was puzzled, "What do the King of Qin and I mean by saying this?"
"The intention is that there is no benefit for the six countries to oppose Qin, and it will only cause greater disputes. Only I, the Great Qin, can suppress them and pacify them, is the right way!" Ziying said, raising his voice unconsciously.
Lingfen's head was in a mess, and he suddenly felt that what Ziying said was right.
The Mohist giant seems to have been convinced by the monarch?!
Ziying was slightly excited. As long as he could convince Lingfen, it would not be difficult to deal with Zhao Gao.
Suddenly, Caiwei rushed into the room and shouted, "Master, don't listen to his nonsense, he won't appease the people, he is also a tyrant!"
"What are you talking about? I'm talking to your master, can you avoid it?" Ziying was furious. Just when he was about to succeed, a troublemaker came along the way.
Lingfen's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Ziying, his eyes no longer confused, "Caiwei, tell me why King Qin is a tyrant, tell Master."
"Zi Ying was at the imperial court and wanted to appoint a woman as his queen. Yang Duan and the commander did not agree, so he listened to Zhao Gao and cut Commander Yang in half!" Caiwei deliberately hidden her from the incident.
Lingfen felt cheated and became furious, "So, King Qin just talked to me for a long time just because he didn't want to surrender, right? It's all fake for the sake of all the people in the world!"
"No, no, no, what I said is all true. If Mr. Lingfen thinks what I said is wrong, you can point it out." Ziying swallowed.
The Mo family are all laborers and are very powerful. If they really use their hands, Ziying is definitely no match.
Lingfen didn't want to think about Ziying's words anymore and pressed Ziying, "I just want to ask Caiwei if what she said is true?!"
"It's fake, of course it's fake!" Ziying denied.
Caiwei was furious and pointed at Ziying's nose, "Lv Ziying, do you dare to do it or admit it? I saw it with my own eyes, your aunt."
Ziying took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lingfen, is it possible that you just believe whatever your apprentice says?"
"What do you mean, King Qin? Is it possible that my disciple is lying?" Lingfen was extremely displeased and already regarded Ziying as a scheming traitor in his heart.
"That's right!" Ziying glared at Caiwei, "Mr. Lingfen, think about it, if it were a matter of discussion in the imperial court of our Great Qin, how would your disciple know about it?"
It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain. Ziying now fully understands this sentence. This Caiwei just wants him to die. This kind of woman is absolutely unacceptable.
Lingfen was so upset that Ziying's words made perfect sense, but Lingfen saw that Caiwei's clothes had changed, and since Caiwei hadn't returned home all night, he already had a rough guess about what happened yesterday.
"Whore." Lingfen cursed secretly. Lingfen was very smart and guessed that the woman Caiwei was talking about was herself.
Lingfen closed his eyes tightly, "Come out, Mr. Gai, this person is left to you."
Ziying instantly felt a chill on his back and countless hairs on his back. No one entered the room, but it was as if someone put a knife on his neck.
"Who is he? What are you doing? Mr. Lingfen... How about we discuss it for a while, I have a lot to say to you." Ziying's voice trembled. This fear was far greater than in front of Zhao Gao's house.
Under this fear, Ziying had no doubt that he would die in the next moment.
The door of the wooden house was blown open by the wind from the shore. Under the reflection of the moonlight, an old man with disheveled hair came in holding a sword. The gray cloth on his body was slightly white.
Caiwei smiled evilly and said, "Let me introduce you to Mr. Gai Nie, who is also the master who taught me swordsmanship."
Ziying has heard of the name Gai Nie.
Before Jing Ke assassinated King Qin, he visited Gai Nie. Ziying remembered that the book said Gai Nie glared at Jing Ke, which showed that Gai Nie's swordsmanship was far superior to Jing Ke's.
When Jing Ke failed to assassinate Qin, Ying Zheng invited Gai Nie to join him in a sword duel. That was Gai Nie's best chance to assassinate Ying Zheng, but during the competition, Gai Nie gave up and eventually died under Ying Zheng's sword.
"Isn't Gai Nie dead? How could he still be here?!" Ziying said in shock.
Caiwei sneered, "Lu Ziying, your Lu family has done too many evil things. God wants to kill you."
Ziying was completely desperate, her eyes were dull, and she leaned against the wooden house, waiting for the end of her life.
