Chapter 145: Power of Nobility(1/2)

() Wei Zhe silently glanced at the father and son who were telling lies with their eyes open. The injury on Wang Ben’s face was caused by Wang Jian. It’s strange that he would be worried! He was obviously afraid of being given gifts again and didn’t want to accept them, but he didn’t want to accept them.

He said such a thing, but who could be fooled by this nonsense? But this excuse came to his mind! Wei Zhe and others were extremely depressed. No matter how unreliable Xu Fu's behavior was, he was also Yu Liao's junior brother, and Ying Zheng personally invited

Even if Guiguzi's disciple showed some respect to him, it would be impossible for him to receive the elixirs that he personally delivered and then throw them out. And after receiving these pills, Yu Liao had to remind him not to eat them. If he took them away, they would be hot to the touch.

When Wei Zhe was jealous of the Wang family and his son and came up with this method to escape, Xu Fu on the other side heard what Wang Ben and his son said, and took a look at the wound on Wang Ben's face, and looked straight at the forehead of Wang Ben, who was not afraid of anything.

When his veins burst and his fists clenched, Xu Fu suddenly smiled:

"It's just a slight external injury. It didn't hurt the muscles and bones. How difficult is it to treat this injury?" As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jian's eyebrows skipped a beat, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart. However, Xu Fu heard that

He had already stretched out his hand towards Xia Wuji. This action was too familiar. He had just looked like this when he asked Xia Wuji for medicine. When Wang Jian was about to say goodbye, Xu Fu on the other end said: "Wuji."

Pick out a bottle of good trauma medicine for your master and give it to the general for healing!" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Liang couldn't hold it back any longer. Seeing Wang Jian's dull look, he burst into laughter and couldn't help it.

In order for Wang Jian to see it, he quickly turned sideways and turned his head, his face turned red...

Wei Zhe and others also had the same expression as Zhang Liang. Seeing Wang Jian, they originally wanted to escape. But they didn't expect such a result in the end. Everyone felt gloating about his misfortune. Wang Jian took the medicine pill that Xu Fu handed over with a stiff expression.

, originally wanted to put it in his arms, but Xu Fu stopped him and said: "General, wait a minute, judging from the blessings, although your son's injury is a skin injury, it will inevitably be unsightly if left for a long time. If this medicine is applied immediately, what effect will it have?"

You will see the difference immediately!" After he finished speaking, he didn't see Wang Jian's expression of dumbfounding when he turned around, and asked Ying Zheng for a bowl of water, cloth and other items. Of course, Ying Zheng was worried that his medicine would have side effects after taking it.

, Unexpectedly, Yu Liao winked and was half relieved, letting Xu Fu do whatever he wanted.

Guigu's reputation and respect for Yu Liao. Coupled with Ying Zheng's tacit approval, Wang Ben, a brave young man who had always been brave, allowed the young man named Xia Wuji to kill his head with a dark face.

The binding was strong, and finally he endured it again and again. When his fists were clenched and clenched, the bandaging came to an end.

Although since the Battle of Dongyang City began, Wang Ben has experienced several large and small battles. Although he has been injured, he has never been injured like this. Everyone saw that his face was bruised many times, but he was tied up.

It was the first time that his head looked so big. Everyone couldn't bear it anymore and turned their heads to suppress their laughter. Wang Jian was deeply afraid that his son would be disfigured after using the powder, so he began to regret beating Wang Ben until he looked like one.

The situation was so serious that Xu Fu had to take action today. He couldn't bear it at this moment, so he knelt down and left immediately. Ying Zheng knew that he was impatient, so he agreed without forcing him to stay. Before leaving, Xu Fu said

He called the father and son and warned them: "Don't let the bandage get wet. It must not be removed for two days. After two days, the general will just come to Fu Mansion to change the dressing. I guarantee that the bruises and swelling will disappear in three to five days."

Don't leave any traces!" Upon hearing this, Wei Zhe couldn't help laughing and almost suffered internal injuries. Wang Jian's face was bright, and he had already begun to think of how he was going to take his son out to avoid trouble for a few days, but he kept saying the same thing.

The soles of my feet are oily.

Xu Fu originally thought that he had just arrived and wanted to please people. He also thought that his elixirs were unparalleled in the world and everyone should be competing for them. He would have thought that Wang Jian would avoid him for fear of not being able to catch up. As soon as he saw Wang Jian leaving, he immediately turned his gaze

After falling back into the palace, because Xu Fu was from Guigu, whether it was to give Yu Liao face or for the sake of Wang Chan, whom he had never met, it was impossible for Ying Zheng to leave Xu Fu alone. What's more, although Xu Fu's pills are harmful to people, they are not.

The principles of medicine in his body are indeed useful, not to mention that since he loves the art of alchemy, he probably also has some experience in alchemy. At this time, alchemy is divided into internal and external alchemy, and Ying Zheng is also quite aware of this.

I know that in addition to using plants as materials for alchemy, some alchemists also use stone ores as raw materials to refine elixirs and use the human body as a cauldron. In fact, although these alchemists are called alchemists, in Ying Zheng's view, these people are

The prototypes of some chemists in previous lives were quite similar. If they were cultivated, they might be useful to me.

The most eye-catching thing about Xu Fu in later generations was not the result of his alchemy and eating of dead people, but his eloquent speech, and finally succeeded in abducting three thousand boys and girls, as well as various grains and seeds for the crossbowmen, and finally made Qin Shihuang replace him.

He opened the way and went to Pingyuan Guangze to spend the rest of his life in leisure. Xu Fu was a talented person. If he could prescribe the right medicine and use his talent instead of listening to slander, Xu Fu could also be put to use.

Xu Fu was finally appointed as the doctor. Although this position is not one of the Nine Qings, nor is it a high-ranking position, for Xu Fu, it is a position where he can truly show his talents. If he is really bent on dissent from Huang Zhidao, it is uncertain.

This position really suits his heart, and if Xu Fu had not been shocked by the splendor of the Qin Palace at the beginning, he might have accepted the job of serving as a doctor willingly at this time. It is a pity that he is now

With wealth and honor in his heart, a serving doctor is naturally not as eye-catching as a minister. As soon as Xu Fu moved his lips, Yu Liao glared at him.

For the people in Guigu, Yu Liao is the oldest among the brothers and has high prestige. Although his status is not as good as Guiguzi, it is not much different, so he glared at him. Although Xu Fu was depressed, he could bear it.

When the words came to his lips, he quickly retreated.

After meeting Xu Fu today, Ying Zheng entrusted Han Fei with arranging his accommodation and other matters. The mansion had already been prepared, and the servants and servants were also prepared according to their positions. Han Fei only needed to take care of Xu Fu.

Just send him directly out of the palace. Yu Liao originally wanted to mention this little junior brother a few more words, but because he received a 'meeting gift' today, his face is still dark at the moment, so he is not willing to worry about Xu Fu. Seeing Ying

Once Zheng left, he followed him out of the palace.

Even a fool like Xu Fu could see that Yu Liao was angry at this moment. He was unfamiliar with the place in Xianyang City. Seeing that Han Fei also came to the palace, he knew that even though his status was not high, he was also a confidant of Ying Zheng, so he intended to fight with him.

After making good friends, he came forward and said, "I have to thank Mr. Han for today's blessing." As soon as he finished speaking, Han Fei quickly turned sideways to get rid of the gift, saying that he didn't dare, and from the corner of his eye, he saw

Seeing Xu Fu hand over another medicine bottle, the corner of his mouth suddenly twitched: "Brother Xu, it's too much of a gift. Such a precious thing. How can Han accept more." After he finished speaking, he was about to refuse, but Xu Fu was polite to him.

After a while, he firmly pushed the medicine bottle into his hand.

At this time, Xu Fu had already seen some clues. He knew that his medicine might not be as popular as he thought. Otherwise, Han Fei should accept it happily instead of using all possible means to refuse. Once he understood this, Xu Fu felt that

He felt slightly disappointed, but after knowing the reason, he stopped asking Han Fei for information. He took his apprentice Xia Wu and followed Han Fei out of the palace.

On the other side, after receiving the medicine bottle, Ying Zheng ordered the green pills in the bottle to be divided into two parts. In one part, he called Liu Yun into the palace and handed the medicine to him for study.

The other part was to summon the old nobles of the Qin State from Fengchang to the palace, take one of each pill and put it in each pill, and give three of the pills to the powerful person headed by the man known as Zhao Gong!

Almost all of these Qin dignitaries have controlled the Fengchang lineage, preventing Ying Zheng from getting involved. These people are all nobles. Although they have been gradually suppressed by Ying Zheng in recent years, there is a saying that is good, Bai Zu

These old-school dignitaries used to hold great power. Even if their strength has been reduced in recent years, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. In the Qin State, these people still have unparalleled power.

His voice and status are much higher than those of Li Si, Han Fei and other new ministers! Just like when Ying Zheng wanted to establish the imperial examination, but was blocked by these people, the idea has been postponed until now and has not been implemented. It is not Ying

The government doesn't want to think about it, but these people are united together, and their power is too amazing!

Although the things that Fengchang's lineage usually does do not involve political affairs, their status is only below the prime minister. Although Taizhu, Taishi, Taibu, etc. do not have real power, their status is too special. The ancients like to ask questions to predict bad luck.

Human instincts, and sacrifices to ancestors must be arranged by Taizhu. In ancient times, sacrifices could almost be regarded as a major event for the royal family. If there is any negligence, I am afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the powerful and powerful people. These people usually watch

They are inconspicuous, but if one of them is not good, it will cause problems. This is one of the reasons why Ying Zheng has not attacked the old-style dignitaries of the Qin State so far.

The overwhelming power of these old aristocrats was not only the most prevalent in Qin, but also the case in almost all countries. Even King Yue Wuling, the most famous king of Zhao at that time, wanted to reform Zhao after he succeeded to the throne.

It must go through the pleadings of the powerful leaders. At that time, the State of Zhao was close to the tribes of Rong and Di and suffered deeply from them. At that time, everyone imitated the scholars and officials and wore dark clothes. Regardless of men, women, old and young, everyone was proud to wear dark clothes. And this

The dark clothes are layered in layers, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, revealing the layers of clothes that wrap around the body. The upper body has wide sleeves, making it look extremely gorgeous when walking. Everyone in the world regards this as beauty. It is a pity that if you wear this dark clothes, the lower abdomen and legs will be exposed.

But she was completely naked. This forced her to walk a little smaller, which made her body more graceful.

It's a pity that this dark coat is beautiful to wear, but it is not convenient for walking and riding a horse. Even if it is summer, even if your bare calves are exposed when riding a horse, it will be unsightly at best. But if you dress like this in winter,

The cold wind poured into the skirt, making the cold unbearable. Therefore, in early ancient times, although some scholars wore dark clothes, they tied cloths on their legs to keep out the cold wind. The world called them shin clothes.

It covers the lower legs, and during the reform of King Zhao Wuling, Yu extended the shank upwards to the thighs, just like what the Rong Di people wore, just like the trousers worn by later generations. Although the upper body is still similar to deep

Clothes like clothes, the robe also reaches the hem, but it is not wrapped as tightly as deep clothes, and trousers are worn inside (the ancients did not wear trousers before, but only started to wear trousers since then), which makes it easier to ride and walk.

, when fighting with the Rong and Di people, it is much more convenient for Zhao Bing to be on horseback.

This idea was a great idea, and it was later proven that King Zhao Wuling’s reforms at that time were necessary. Unfortunately, it was opposed by the old-school dignitaries of Zhao State. Everyone thought that Zhao Yong was a deviant and had unbelievable ideas. Many old-school dignitaries

The dignitaries also disagreed and felt that this move had a shabby tradition. Unfortunately, King Wuling of Zhao was bent on reform at the time and had to give advice. Finally, he ordered everyone in the Zhao Kingdom to wear crotchless pants. As a result, King Wuling of Zhao was deeply worried about what would happen in the future.

Hidden dangers.

At that time, the head of the old nobles of the Zhao Kingdom was Prince Cheng, the uncle of Zhao Wuling King Zhao Yong. This man was the son of Zhao Zhong, the Marquis of Zhao Cheng. The younger brother of Zhao Yu, the Marquis of Zhao Su, was extremely powerful in the Zhao Kingdom.

Hu Fuqi did not listen to his own words and insisted on going his own way. Instead, he listened to the fatuous words and held a grudge in his heart. Although he agreed on the surface, he actually had deep hatred in his heart. Many years later, Zhao Yong came up with the idea of ​​one country, two rule.

When Zhao Huiwen and Zhao He were trying to find a way, they put Zhao Huiwen under the command of Zhao He and besieged King Zhao Wuling in the Sand Dune Palace. He starved to death in the palace. This was the reason for the famous Sand Dune Palace Change. King Zhao Wuling made the old king in order to carry out reforms.

The nobles held a grudge, and because of their dignity as kings, they starved to death in the end. On the contrary, Zhao Cheng and others finally took control of the government by holding their young masters hostage. In the end, Zhao became the prime minister and was granted the title of Lord Anping.

The incident of Zhao Cheng is enough to serve as an example to show that the power of the old aristocracy at this time was so great that even the monarch was held hostage by it. This is evident. Although the power of the aristocracy in the Qin State was not as huge as it was in the period of Ying Zhu and Ying Chu,

However, it can be seen if these people gather together, especially if Ying Zhengxing takes action, the force will be fatal and will not leave anyone a chance to counterattack. He will never repeat the fate of King Zhao Wuling, nor will he

It will leave no chance for these elders of Qin State!

Xu Fu's elixir was sent out, and the dignitaries headed by Zhao Fengchang were naturally suspicious of Ying Zheng's kind act of giving the elixir. After all, if Ying Zheng wanted to attack them, even if he died in the end, someone would take care of him, but

You can gain one life, and no matter how much others suffer, it is not worth the life you have. Even though Zhao Fengchang made the most violent noise when he opposed Ying Zheng's imperial examinations, the older a person is, the more he cherishes his life.

He also knew that Ying Zheng would not kill him, and that someone would protect him, so he dared to hit the wall to force Ying Zheng to take back his life. In fact, he was not willing to die. He was just making a gesture to protect everyone's interests!

Zhao Fengchang and others knew clearly that once the imperial examination was opened, if Yingzheng's idea was followed, the Qin State would no longer be worried about talents. In this way, the Qin State's nobles would have to give up a considerable part of their positions to these lowly people. This is almost the same as

A disguised form of elimination of power. Zhao Fengchang himself was also the son of the Qin State at the time. Naturally, he could not allow this to happen and naturally resisted desperately. As soon as the incident came out, although Ying Zheng never mentioned it again in the end, both parties knew that they were in their hearts.

Fear has arisen, and Ying Zheng has not taken any action now, but it does not mean that he will never take action, and the powerful people have also become one, and the two parties are incompatible with each other. Under such circumstances, Ying Zheng gave the pill, and naturally

It makes people even more suspicious.

Zhao Fengchang is now the most powerful among the dignitaries and has the oldest qualifications. He is the son of the original King Huiwen of Qin and escaped the era of the Fourth Young Master when the Queen Mother Xuan participated in politics. Because his status is not obvious, his biological mother's status is extremely low, and

He was not favored, so he did not attract the hatred of Ying Ze. Later, after Fan Ju entered the Qin Dynasty, he made suggestions to King Zhao of Qin. After Ying Ze expelled the four young masters and made the Queen Mother Xuan lose power, Zhao Fengchang gradually showed his prominence. I don’t know if it was Ying Ze who originally

He hated his two younger brothers Gaoling Jun and Jingyang Jun who had the same mother, and they were so domineering and powerful that they were approaching his own throne, so he expelled the four nobles at that time from Xianyang, causing them all to lose power.

The younger brother was satisfied, and Zhao Fengchang gradually showed his prominence and survived. Although King Zhaoxiang of Qin Yingze had little affection for his brother due to the fight for the throne in his early years, Zhao Fengchang survived until now. Yingze died, and his nephews Yingzhu and Yingzhu died.

The grandnephew Ying Chu, the current ruler Ying Zheng can be called the great nephew, Zhao Fengchang can be called the senior, and he is an old minister from the reign of King Xian Zhao. After decades of accumulation of power, it is natural that he should not be underestimated, especially the Qin State.

Over the years, the nobles have been vaguely headed by him. At that time, Lu Buwei did not dare to easily touch the powerful people of Qin. Now, Ying Zheng, a junior, has touched the interests of Qin. Naturally, there is no possibility of relaxation between the two parties.

"I wonder what the king gave this medicine for?" Zhao Fengchang opened his mouth. Although he did not directly say that Ying Zheng had any intention to murder, everyone could clearly see the look on his face, and many people had similar thoughts in their minds.

After hearing this, he immediately followed Zhao Fengchang and stood a few steps behind him. Although he did not speak, his attitude showed that he wanted to support Zhao Fengchang.

Ying Zheng sneered a few times in his heart, these old powerful people, all of them are old and not dead, they are thieves! They have always opposed him, but now they have formed a group, how can he tolerate them! One mountain cannot accommodate two.

Hu, if these people want to regain their former glory, he will never tolerate it. At this time, Ying Zheng has not yet had any heirs. I am afraid that if he has left descendants, these people will have already taken risks and will pay for it even if they are not sure.

The king of a country is intimidating, but he is not invulnerable. If someone really wants to kill the king, it is not impossible. King Wu of the pre-Qin Dynasty believed Meng Shuo's slander, and finally went to Luoyang to kill King Nan, the emperor of Zhou.
To be continued...
