He clenched his fists tightly and rage surged in his heart.
a long time.
Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore and roared in my heart: "I, Zhao Gao, am not as good as you? Just because I am of low origin and mean, you all look down on me, and you come and go as soon as you call me. In the end, I, Zhao Gao,
One day you will be proven wrong!"
"I, Zhao Gao, am not a dog that only wags its tail to beg for mercy!"
"You are not someone who is manipulated by others!"
"Never!"
Zhao Gao also knew very well that Hu Hai's chances of becoming the crown prince were slim, but he had no choice. He had been close to other princes in his early years, and even blindly flattered the eldest prince, but they all despised his origin and ignored him at all.
.
Only Hu Hai!
But Hu Hai is a person who has no independent opinions and no perseverance. If there is no one to supervise him at all times, he will always indulge in fun and enjoyment and has no ability to become a prince. Furthermore, the family background that Hu Hai relies on has also declined, which will help him.
Not big.
Hu Haitongti is not a person who can achieve anything.
But he has no choice!
He has tasted power.
Now he is even more aware that he has become addicted to power, even to the point of losing his desire. When he was demoted by His Majesty as a 'fake' official of the Zhongche Mansion, he was so struck by lightning that he did not dare to have any power for several months.
Any action to avoid being demoted again.
He didn't want to be ridiculed again.
He encouraged Hu Hai to fight for the crown prince, so he naturally had his own agenda.
If Hu Hai comes to power, with Hu Hai's trust in him, he will be able to monopolize power. At that time, no one will dare to point fingers at him, and no one will dare to ridicule him. Everyone will have to flatter him, and he will be above all officials.
superior.
He's had enough of discrimination and ridicule.
He just wants to climb up, climb up step by step, trample everyone under his feet, so that others can only look up to him and dare not say anything bad about himself, let alone mention his origin again.
and the past.
He also wants to prove it to the world.
Except for his birthplace, he, Zhao Gao, is not inferior to anyone.
even.
He is stronger than everyone else!
Zhao Gao had dark eyes and said coldly: "Old immortal, you have reminded me that relying on Hu Hai alone is unreliable. Sometimes you need to take the initiative yourself. Your Majesty has been working day and night recently, and there is indeed something wrong with your body. The alchemist can indeed be used."
.”
"but."
"I am not harming Your Majesty, but recuperating Your Majesty."
"You want to continue to dominate me and let me be at your mercy again. After all, you are wrong. I, Zhao Gao, only believe in my own judgment. You are just a tool on my way forward, a chess piece to make suggestions and open up ideas for me!"
"I'm just borrowing your hand to help me take a step further!"
"That's all!"
Zhao Gao snorted coldly, fluffed his sleeves and returned to the palace.
He already has an idea.
...
East of the city.
Qin Luoheng returned home.
The three girls at home, Bo Shu, have been waiting for a long time.
On the way home, Qin Luoheng asked An how the sales of vegetables were, and An answered truthfully. The sales were not ideal. This was not surprising. Xianyang was the economic center of the Qin Dynasty, especially the east of the city, and was home to the nobles of the six countries.
Gather together, but these people are more willing to eat meat.
I don't even care about vegetables.
Although Qin Luoheng knew it, he was at a loss.
Da reminded him in a low voice: "Master, did you promise that woman from Yong County to write a letter to the officials of Tingwei Mansion?"
Qin Luoheng shook his head.
said:
"Need not."
"They just asked for comfort."
"There are indeed injustices in various parts of the Qin Dynasty, and law enforcement is uneven, but Xianyang is the capital of the Qin Dynasty, and most of the legal officials are located here. If there are problems even here, it doesn't matter whether I write or not, I am just a white man
, no threat to officials."
"Besides."
“I believe in Xianyang’s legal system!”
Da looked thoughtful.
Enter the house.
Bo Shu came forward.
She handed over a letter and a small bag made of linen, and said, "My dear, this is the letter Wu Rui sent from Wu County, and there is also a small bag of seeds."
Wu Rui recovered one month ago.
Then he applied to Diankesi to return to Wu County. For Wu Rui, who already had a title, Diankesi did not make things difficult and directly agreed, so Wu Rui also returned to Wuxian.
He knew that Qin Luoheng was planting wild vegetables, and he even joked that he would send some southern seeds to Qin Luoheng when he returned. It was just a joke at first, but unexpectedly, Wu Rui actually did it, and now he has sent all kinds of seeds to Qin Luoheng.
Came over.
but.
Qin Luoheng was already very busy dealing with the vegetables on hand. How could he think about planting other vegetables? He shook his head with a wry smile and handed the seeds to Guan E, asking Guan E to handle them.
She likes to grow flowers and plants, so it is best to let Guan'e handle it.
He didn't take this to heart.
Qin Luoheng took the letter and read it carefully.
Finished reading.
He frowned.
Wu Rui's letter was written very concisely.
Apart from a few words of reminiscing about old times, it was just a reminder of one thing.
The Baiyue tribe has been making moves recently, and seems to be showing signs of large-scale disturbance.
Wu Rui has been recruited by the county captain.
Qin Luoheng held the bamboo piece in his hand and frowned.
When Bo Shu and others saw this, they didn't bother them and walked away.
He has not taken the initiative to understand political affairs in the past few months, but he has still heard about some major events in the court. Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 to the north. It has been more than a month since then. This news may have spread to southern Xinjiang and Baiyue.
Perhaps this is the reason why I acted after hearing the news.
Qin Luoheng sighed softly:
"Although the Baiyue tribe is remote, they are not ignorant of current affairs."
"At present, Wang Jian and Meng Wu have died of illness, Wang Ben is in coma, and the pillars of the Qin army have collapsed one after another. Now three hundred thousand troops are marching north. The six regions of Shandong are in turmoil due to land affairs, and the military strength of various places is tight. Therefore, the Baiyue tribe chose this time to launch an attack.
I just want to make Da Qin exhausted."
"Although they are not connected with the Huns in the north, they also understand the current situation. It is just right to disturb the border at this time. It will not only allow the Qin Dynasty to divide its troops, but also slow down the national power of the Qin Dynasty. If the Qin Dynasty cannot fight quickly, given time, the Qin Dynasty will decide
Will be trapped in the quagmire of war."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content that follows! "Considering one thing and losing the other, one of the six places in the south, north, or Shandong will fail to take care of it. The court will either let the Xiongnu go south, or let the Baiyue plunder
, or let the Shandong nobles get a chance to breathe and continue to grow bigger."
"No matter how the court chooses, one party will definitely become bigger."
"When."
"In order to solve the troubles at heart, the imperial court will definitely give the other two places a chance to breathe. This is a conspiracy, an obvious strategy to weaken Qin. However, Da Qin has no choice. Since Da Qin has unified the world, it must bear the responsibilities
The heavy responsibility of protecting the homeland and the country, guarding the territory and opening up borders.”
"It's just that this road is difficult to walk!"
Qin Luoheng shook his head.
Originally, he was a little unclear about the various measures taken by the Qin Dynasty in history, thinking that the Qin Dynasty wasted too much national power. But in this great age, he realized that everything was done out of necessity, and the Qin Dynasty had no other choice.
After destroying Yan and Zhao, we must choose to face the Xiongnu directly.
If you destroy the Chu State, you will have to bear the risk of being stabbed in the back by the Baiyue tribe.
The Xiongnu and the Baiyue tribe were not fools. They could not even defeat Zhao, Yan, and Chu in the past. Letting them fight against the unified and integrated Qin State would be tantamount to hitting an egg with an egg against a stone. They did not dare to face it, and they did not want to face it.
.
What they can do is to constantly disturb the border and the progress of the Qin Dynasty's integration, forcing the Qin Dynasty to passively fight back, and then continue to consume the Qin Dynasty's national power, slow down the Qin Dynasty's integration speed, and give the Shandong nobles a chance to breathe. They can only keep wrestling with the Qin Dynasty.
, they have a chance to breathe.
otherwise.
What will greet them is destruction!
Ruthless crushing!
Qin Luoheng said to himself: "The Xiongnu, Baiyue, and the old clans of the Six Kingdoms, none of them are idle people. They will not sit back and watch the Qin Dynasty stabilize. They will try every means to slow down or even bring down the progress of the Qin Dynasty's integration.
"
"For the Great Qin court, there are two paths at the moment."
"Arrest the outside to make peace with the inside, and fight the inside to make peace with the outside."
"If you want to govern both internally and externally, it is impossible to do so with the current national power of the Qin Dynasty."
"Right now, the six regions of Shandong are barely under control. In history, the Qin Dynasty's northern expedition to the Xiongnu and its southern capture of Baiyue was not a strategic mistake. It was just a two-way war, coupled with the need to suppress the six regions, which consumed a lot of Qin's energy and resources.
national strength, so it ultimately failed.”
"Disaster!"
"The road to defeating the Qin Dynasty is difficult!"
Qin Luoheng shook his head.
He felt that Da Qin seemed unable to break the situation.
The main reason lies with the First Emperor.
Qin Shihuang was so powerful that he could not tolerate any sand in his eyes.
If it were other emperors, they might choose to endure it, or choose a defensive posture, and wait for the country's strength to increase before striking out with thunder, but Qin Shihuang would not. He would only destroy everything that blocked the Qin Dynasty, completely destroy the Xiongnu and Baiyue, and let the Qin Dynasty
The northern and southern territories were completely stabilized.
but.
Is this easier said than done?
Qin Luoheng put the bamboo slips in the study, turned around and went to the lobby. The food had been prepared, and it was all cabbage and radish. Seeing this, he also looked embarrassed.
Since the cabbage and radish matured.
There are no shortage of these two items on his dining table.
Although he felt helpless, he grew it himself after all, so no matter how unhappy he was, he could only eat it with his head down.
It's just that the yield is from one hundred acres.
How could they eat all the food? They also had to pay taxes. Thinking of this, Qin Luoheng was a little confused. He wanted to make kimchi from cabbage and radish, and then sell it.
But he just thought about this idea.
Salt is too expensive.
Making kimchi will only make ends meet.
As for purifying refined salt, he has thought about it, but he... doesn't know how, and his household registration is an ordinary citizen's household registration, which does not mean that he is not qualified to do this because of his work registration.
Moreover, salt is a government exclusive.
The Qin Dynasty even had special salt officials.
If he went to do illegal business, he would probably have to go to jail for a while if he was sued. He had already gone to jail twice. As the saying goes, things can only last three times, so he still didn't want to go back.
After dinner.
Qin Luoheng went to the study to read the laws and regulations.
As the night got darker, he got up and went to the bedroom. There was already someone lying on the bed.
Within these two months, he married three daughters back home. His evening ceremony did not include any noise of playing, playing, or hijab, or a noisy wedding banquet. There was only a quiet and peaceful evening ceremony, and everything was very simple and peaceful.
.
Looking at Bo Shuna's graceful figure, Qin Luoheng felt a little warm in his heart.
