"Don't worry, this is not poison, and it won't kill you. What's more, I don't want Zheng'er to misunderstand because of you. This is an abortion pill, specifically for the wild beast in your belly."

Having said this, Queen Mother Huayang fed her another spoonful: "Actually, Zi Chu is dead. You are lonely and raising a man or even raising several men. This is not an unacceptable thing in our Daqin."

"Even if it is exposed, it won't be a big deal. The people of Qin have long been used to the fact that the Queen Mother raises wild men after the death of the King."

"But you should never think about giving birth to this evil son."

Having said this, Queen Mother Huayang placed her right hand on Zhao Ji's abdomen, moved it slowly, and finally aimed at the position of the uterus. With a slight exertion, a stream of innate Qi entered the uterus, accurately forming the newly formed

The embryos are completely broken up.

With the dull sound of drums, the Great Court Meeting began.

Since Ying Zheng ascended the throne, he has scheduled a meeting every ten days. Contrary to imagination, the meeting at this time is not that ministers raise issues, and Ying Zheng is responsible for solving them. Instead, officials from a certain department raise issues, and the prime minister

To solve the problem, Ying Zheng is usually just a tool, responsible for sitting here.

Since then, even if the ministers are dissatisfied with a certain policy or aspect of the empire, the first person they want to criticize is the prime minister.

This is one of the most important roles of the prime minister. He assists the emperor at the top and manages the ministers at the bottom. With the prime minister, there is a buffer between the emperor and his ministers.

If a minister directly confronts the king, his life is at risk. If the king directly confronts his ministers, he will lose popularity even if he wins. At this time, the importance of the prime minister appears.

As for what would happen to a king without a prime minister, the history books of the Ming Dynasty have made it very clear.

But today's Great Court Meeting is a little different. In the past, the imperial censor, who was extremely powerful in combat and would antagonize anyone he caught, has not opened his mouth since the Great Court Meeting began.

The military generals who most like to reason with each other sat calmly on the mats and waited quietly.

The guards didn't speak, Ying Zheng didn't speak, the civil and military officials didn't speak, but many of the brave ones looked at Lu Buwei from behind with evil intentions.

The palace of Nuo Da suddenly became silent except for the sound of breathing.

"Since everyone is fine, let me come. A few days ago, I caught wind and cold. My hair turned white overnight, and my energy is no longer what it used to be. Today I am specifically writing to beg for the bones."

Ying Zheng raised his head and carefully examined Lu Buwei in front of him. He was indeed old. His white hair and wrinkles on his forehead all proved this.

The original Lu Buwei was a handsome and charming man. In the entire Xianyang City, his charm was one of the best.

Before Ying Zheng came of age, Lu Buwei had the most power and wealth. How could he not be charming?

Although he is over fifty years old this year, his powerful cultivation at at least the Grandmaster level is enough to keep him looking like he is in his thirties.

As for the hair growing overnight at this moment, is this a sign of weakness?

"read."

"I am a commoner, and I met the late king in Handan. The late king did not think that I was despicable, but consulted him about the affairs of the world. I was so grateful that I allowed the late king to drive me..."

"The former king knew his ministers cautiously, so he entrusted his ministers with important matters before his death. Since I was appointed, I have been worried and sighing all night long, fearing that the entrustment would not be effective and would harm the wisdom of the late king..."

The main content of the memorial is what Lu Buwei did after he became the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, including formulating a more sophisticated assembly line operation model, including defeating the combined army commanded by Lord Xinling...

Listening to Lu Buwei's memorial, the emotions of the officials were aroused little by little. To be fair, Lu Buwei, the prime minister, did a lot of things.

Although he had some indescribable relationship with Zhao Ji and was a hater of the late king, for the Qin Dynasty as a whole, he was very qualified as prime minister.

After five thousand years of watching, the only conflict between Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng is that he did too well.

Lu Buwei has been the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty for seven years and has accumulated a lot of prestige. This has also led to a phenomenon: even if Yingzheng takes charge of the government, he still has to be persuaded for major issues.

What Ying Zheng wanted was to reform immediately. The entire Qin Dynasty began to reform in every aspect from top to bottom, preparing to unify the world and prepare to conquer the heavens.

Even maybe, before he unified the world, and encountered some necessary opportunities, Ying Zheng would directly lead a small but capable army to go to other worlds to do what he needed to do.

After doing it, it was obvious that the army could not come back in order to keep it a secret. This kind of thing could not be hidden, at least not from Lu Buwei in front of him, if he was still the prime minister.

But the problem is that before unifying the world, Ying Zheng does not want anyone in this world to know the existence of the heavens and the world.

"The prosperity of Da Qin today is inseparable from Zhongfu's hard work over the years." In one sentence, Ying Zheng set the tone.

Hearing this, Lu Buwei also relaxed a lot. Just relying on the word "Zhongfu", he would not be too miserable today. Give him a peach and give him a plum in return. With an idea, Lu Buwei had a new idea.

"Before I leave, I am willing to donate my family property, including the fiefdom of Luoyang, and my ancestral property, in the hope that the Qin Dynasty will prosper."

"Shan, Father Zhong, is there anything else you want to explain?"

"Finally, I gave your Majesty a book. This is my life's work, and its name is Lu Shi Chun Qiu."

"In my opinion, the day when the Qin Dynasty will unify the world is not far away. There are no big problems in terms of military strength and national strength, but there are still some shortcomings in the cultural governance and ideological aspects after the unification, and then this book was written.

"

"This book takes Confucianism as its main body, Taoism theory as its basis, and its material is the thoughts and theories of Ming, Dharma, Mohism, Agriculture, Military, and Yin-Yang, integrating the theories of various schools of thought into one furnace. Whatever is beneficial to our country, the Qin Dynasty,

Take it. If it is harmful, discard it.”

When Ying Zheng took the book from the eunuch, a text that he had read in modern time and space automatically appeared in Ying Zheng's mind.

"Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" is the first collection of essays written in an organized and planned manner in Chinese history. It responds to the weather, observes the human situation, and observes the geographical location. It is based on Taoist thought, adheres to the code of conduct of doing nothing, and uses Confucian ethics to position it.

The value scale absorbs the Mohist concept of justice, the speculative logic of famous scholars, and the legalist governance skills, coupled with the changes in military strategies and the pursuit of geographical advantages by farmers, to form a complete set of national governance theories.

Huh? Where have I seen this idea of ​​governing the country? It looks so familiar.

Opening Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals, Ying Zheng flipped through a few pages carefully, and then nodded: "Father Zhong has paid great attention. I will read it often in the future."

"Father Zhong's hard work has made great achievements, so he must be rewarded. I sent an order from the solitary king to ask the young master to take out the newly minted ten million gold from the treasury."

hiss!

Ten million gold!

So scary!

"In addition, Zhongfu has been given the position of Grand Master. He can write to me at any time, and on every tenth or fifth day, he can also go to the palace to see me and teach me personally."

With such words, Lu Buwei's life after retirement can be considered guaranteed, otherwise he would be eaten piece by piece by the inconspicuous cats and dogs.
Chapter completed!
