Han Fei raised his head and looked at the sky above his head.
Half an hour later.
"Senior brother, you have to go back to South Korea."
A young man who looked about the same age as Han Fei came to Han Fei. It was Li Si, his fellow disciple of Xunzi.
Han Fei looked at Li Si: "Yes, it's time to go back." He was a Korean prince, so naturally he wanted to go back to Korea.
Among the seven countries, Korea is the weakest. The reason why he came to Songhai to study as a teacher was to learn a skill and then go back to revive Korea.
Nowadays, the war among the Seven Kingdoms is becoming more and more intense, especially the Qin Kingdom, which is the strongest among the Seven Kingdoms. It is a direct threat to South Korea, and Korea itself is also facing increasing worries. General Ji Wuye has power in both the government and the opposition. If he
If he doesn't go back, he is worried that South Korea may find it difficult to sustain itself.
When Li Si heard the words, he was right.
"South Korea is currently the weakest among the seven countries. With senior brother's talent, it would be a pity to go to South Korea."
"There is no way, it is my country and my home after all. No matter how weak I am, I must go back." Han Fei said with a smile.
Li Si: "Looking at it this way, being born into an emperor's family may not be a blessing."
Han Fei smiled and asked instead without saying anything more.
"What about you, junior brother, what are your plans? With junior brother's talent, he should be able to accomplish great things in today's troubled times."
Although he and Li Si were brothers and disciples of Xunzi, their relationship was not much better. Although they seemed harmonious on the surface, they were actually wary of each other. And he could tell that Li Si was a very talented person.
An ambitious man, but also a very capable person, and somewhat unwilling to be under him, so he and Li Si are destined to be enemies rather than friends in the future. Even if Li Si comes here now and seems to be sending him off, in fact he is just here to test him.
.
"My senior brother is ten times more talented than me. He can pick the weakest one, but I can't. I'm going to try my luck under the most powerful roof among the Seven Kingdoms."
Li Si opened his mouth and said that if he wanted to go to the most powerful country, this was a decision he had made long ago. At the same time, he also had his own ambition in his heart. He wanted to find the most powerful emperor of the most powerful country and put his talents to use.
, to open up a new world.
"You are going to Qin."
"It makes my senior brother laugh. Li Si's talent is far inferior to that of his senior brother. He can only go to Qin, the most powerful country, to have a chance to compete with his senior brother in the future."
"So, next time we meet, we will be opponents."
"I hope Li Si will not disappoint senior brother next time."
"Then let's make a deal, don't be merciful just because you're worried about your fellow disciples."
"Absolutely not, senior brother, don't worry."
Li Si cupped his hands and smiled, then watched Han Fei leave.
Although he and Han Fei are fellow disciples, he has always had a desire to be better than Han Fei in his heart, perhaps out of jealousy or out of competitiveness, but this is not important. What is important is that he has already
Have a goal.
Qin, the strongest country among the seven kingdoms, was the place where his goals and ambitions were realized.
.....................
Two months later, Qin State, at the gate outside Xianyang City.
"finally reached."
Li Si, dressed in a green shirt, rode a horse with a caravan to the gate of Xianyang City. After saying goodbye to Han Fei that day and Han Fei returning to Korea, he also said goodbye to his teacher Xunzi and came all the way to Qin. After two months,
He finally came to Xianyang, the capital of the Qin State, and through what he saw and heard along the way, he also understood the current political situation of the Qin State.
The current King of Qin is the King of Qin, but because the King of Qin is only thirteen years old and is not the age of twenty-one stipulated by the Qin Dynasty, the King of Qin needs to wait until he is twenty-one years old before he can take charge of the King of Qin. Before that, someone needs to be the King of Qin.
Acting as an agent in the government, this person will be the real ruler of Qin.
Originally, it was the Prime Minister of Qin, Lu Buwei, who acted for the Qin Wangzheng. The Qin Wangzheng also respected Lu Buwei as his second father. However, due to a coup, the Qin Wangzheng directly killed Lu Buwei and his group of people, and then appointed his own teacher Wu Lingxian instead.
You act as prime minister in the affairs of the Qin State.
This was obviously a premeditated coup.
He killed Lu Buwei and replaced his most trusted and close teacher, Wuling Xianjun, to help act as the agent of the government. In this way, even if Qin Wangzheng himself was not twenty-one years old and could not personally rule, through Wuling Xianjun, Qin Wangzheng could still indirectly rule.
"This Qin king's government is a heroic one."
A glimpse of the leopard shows that although the current Qin Wangzheng is only thirteen years old, Li Si can confirm from the previous coup that killed Lu Buwei that this Qin Wangzheng is definitely not an ordinary person.
However, this is exactly what he wants. If the King of Qin is not a heroic leader, he will not look down on the Qin State.
"Then let's go meet the Immortal Lord Wuling."
Li Si then made a decision to meet with the current Prime Minister of Qin, who was apparently in power and was the teacher of Qin Wangzheng, Wuling Xianjun.
Li Si planned to go directly to the Wuling Immortal Lord and recommend himself. He also believed that with his talent, unless the other party was a mediocre person, he would definitely be able to see what he was capable of.
But just as he finished his thoughts, a man with a white face and no beard, a sinister appearance and a cold smile, dressed as a Qin official and accompanied by a group of bodyguards, came towards the city gate.
"Master Li, we finally meet. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
The visitor walked directly to Li Si, looked at Li Si and smiled softly.
Li Si was immediately shocked when he heard this. Listening to the other party's words, it seemed that he knew him, but he clearly didn't know the other party and had never even been to Qin before. And why did the other party call him "sir"?
"Li Si, I would like to pay my respects to you, sir. I don't know who you are yet."
However, although he did not know the specific identity of the other party, Li Si knew by looking at his attire that the other party must be an official of the Qin State, and he was probably in a high position, so he quickly dismounted and handed him over.
"Zhao Gao."
The man smiled and slowly said his name. It was Zhao Gao.
"It turns out to be Mr. Zhao. Li Si has met Mr. Zhao."
As soon as he heard the name Zhao Gao, Li Dun's heart was shocked again. He was no stranger to the name Zhao Gao. Since entering Qin during this period, except for the two names of Qin Wangzheng and Wuling Xianjun, all the names he had heard were.
The name I have heard the most is Zhao Gao, and he is still the most talked-about person in the Qin State today. Zhao Gao is the one who snares Zhao Gao, the sharp sword in the hands of the Qin Wangzheng.
Nowadays, no one in the Qin State is afraid of Zhao Gao's name. After all, the whole Qin State has been devastated by Lu Buwei's incident, and the executioner who led all this is Zhao Gao and the Luowang Assassin Group formed by his men.
The regiment can be regarded as completely famous after this battle.
If he had been an ordinary person at this moment, facing Zhao Gao, he would have been trembling with fear. However, Li Si is Li Si after all. Even if he is not the Prime Minister of Qin in later generations, his courage is very comparable to others, and he was briefly shocked.
Afterwards, his mood recovered and he looked at Zhao Gao calmly and asked.
"However, Li Si remembers that he has never met Sir. How did Sir recognize Li Si and why did he call me Li... Sir..."
Zhao Gao raised the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard this, and looked at Li Sidao with an unpredictable smile on his face.
"All encounters are destined by fate. Although you don't know Zhao Gao yet, Zhao Gao has already known you."
Li Si was even more confused after hearing this, and at the same time he also became a little surprised and uncertain.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the Zhao Gao in front of him seemed to understand him very well, and even gave him a feeling that his whole person was being seen through. This feeling was something he had never experienced even when facing his teacher Xunzi.
.
When he came to Qin, the situation seemed to be different from what he expected.
Faced with Li Si's confused look, Zhao Gao was very satisfied, because when he first met Ying Zheng and Zhang Shaozong, he was in the same mood as Li Si now. But now, he is not the only one.
"Are you confused, sir?"
Zhao Gao said with a smile again.
"yes."
Li Si also directly admitted it.
"I understand the doubts in your heart, but soon, when you meet the Immortal Lord, you will understand all the reasons."
"Immortal Lord."
Li Si couldn't help but murmur to himself when he heard this, but his surprise and suspicion became even more intense.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when he came to Qin this time, from the moment he saw Zhao Gao, he felt as if everything about him had been seen through.
