Chapter 479 Do you know why the king calls himself a loner?
"I don't think there's anything wrong with this. In the early years, your temperament was more agreeable to me. Who would have thought that as you get older, you'll have the rotten attitude of those scholars? Alas."
King Qin Zhaoxiang stood up and looked up at the palace where he had presided over countless court meetings.
"The war will regenerate countless lonely souls and ghosts in Kyushu. Is this the reason why you were hesitant before?"
"yes."
Ying Chengyu took off all disguises in front of his grandfather and laughed at himself.
"When I fought against the Huns, I talked about the Qin people, and the Huns treated them all equally. In fact, the Huns suffered thousands of casualties in front of me, but it was hard for me to feel any emotion in my heart.
"But now, facing the six countries I have traveled to, and thinking of so many people I have seen die because of my indulgence in Zhang Chu, my heart can no longer be at peace."
Ying Chengyu can put down the Zhang Chu regime of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang now.
These two celebrities who are famous in history books and led the first peasant uprising are nothing more than treason today.
To bring peace to Korea, show off the muscles of Qin, and kill the chicken Zhang Chu to show to the monkeys in the six kingdoms.
In this way, although there will still be some monkeys who can't bear the loneliness and look down on the fact that Qin is in power without the First Emperor, they will rebel.
But there will definitely be some monkeys who are greedy for life and afraid of death and will give up and choose to continue dormant to do the remnants, and the scale of the war will drop by one level.
Ying Chengyu knew that war in the Central Plains was destined to break out from the day the First Emperor faked his death on Mount Tai, and he could not change it.
But in order to eradicate the disaster in one fell swoop, he allowed the giant beast of war to continue to devour the people, and asked countless people to be buried with the ambitious nobles. He felt very sad and suffered from angina.
"You, you are so sentimental, you really don't look like a Qin person."
King Qin Zhaoxiang turned his back to his great-grandson and was speechless. He only felt that Ying Chengyu was being hypocritical.
Just like Ying Chengyu had difficulty empathizing with King Qin Zhaoxiang’s obsession with unifying the world.
His grandfather also found it difficult to sympathize with his heart.
From the day he was born, King Zhaoxiang of Qin was a son of the royal family and a superior. No matter how deeply he penetrated the people, he would never have the feelings of the people.
Thinking about how to expand the territory, recruit talents, and dominate the royal family's children. How can you have the trouble of when to rest and when to have enough food and clothing?
Ying Chenglong is different.
In this life, he is the superior, the king of Qin, who can decide the life and death of thousands of people.
But in his previous life, he was one of those people who had no control over life and death.
"Do you know why the king calls himself a loner?"
"My grandfather also has a bad memory and forgot to tell me about this when I was four years old."
"Then tell me what I'm talking about."
"'Gu' means lonely and helpless. 'Widow' means lack of virtue and limited talents. Calling one lonely, Taoist and widowed is to show humility and to recruit wise men from all over."
"That's right, you haven't forgotten. I'm very happy. I'll give you another answer today. I call you Gudaowu because I'm a king. No one in this world is qualified to stand side by side with you and me!"
King Qin Zhaoxiang waved his big sleeves, like a Yuan Ting mountain standing tall, and the swaying big cloak seemed to be flying up and down, covering his figure, but it could not hide his arrogant momentum!
"The King is the Son of Heaven! What is the Son of Heaven? The King is the Son of Heaven, and the King is a herdsman on behalf of Heaven!"
Ying Ji turned around and pointed to the throne under his great-grandson's seat.
"From the moment you sit on this position, you are no longer a human being. Putting aside those emotions that you shouldn't have and treating the people well is to rule them better. The "Qin Code" is not for fairness and justice, but for order and stability.
, to facilitate management. Your use of Zhang Chu to seduce the six kingdoms will make the Qin Empire more prosperous. This is consistent with the reason why I asked you to treat the people well. Xiao'er, remember, everything you do is to strengthen the Qin State. Don't
Putting the cart before the horse!”
Facing his grandfather's slightly red eyes, Ying Chengyu had a serious look on his face. He had the same expression as when he was being taught by his grandfather. He nodded seriously and said in a deep voice:
"Please remember this."
"good."
Ying Ji nodded with satisfaction.
"I just mentioned Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, and Wei, but I didn't mention Chu. Do you know why?"
Ying Chengxuan lowered his head and recalled for a long time King Qin Zhaoxiang's attitude towards the Chu State. The vacuum period of more than twenty years made these memories buried deep in the bottom of his brain.
He hesitated and said:
"My grandfather seems to have never been very fond of the Chu State, and has never looked at it seriously. In the eyes of my grandfather, the powerful Chu State seems to be worse than the Zhao State, which is hard to find tall men in the country."
"powerful?"
King Qin Zhaoxiang smiled contemptuously.
"Tell me, where is Chu Qiang?"
Before receiving Guiguzi's prophecy, Ying Chengxuan had a very deep understanding of Chu.
As the most trusted prince of the royal family of Qin State's Chu clan, the Queen Mother Huayang, the leader of the Chu clan, would always talk to Ying Chengxuan about the folk customs, culture, and national conditions of Chu during her lifetime.
After hearing what Gui Guzi said, "Although Chu has three surnames, the Qin must be destroyed by Chu", Ying Chengxuan focused on studying the Chu state.
He organized his language and said:
"After Chu State annexed Wu State, its land was five thousand miles wide and its population was nearly ten million. The rivers and rivers were criss-crossed, and lakes were dotted here and there. Although there were continuous mountains and dense forests, the plains were fertile and easy to cultivate. The mountains and rivers were restored.
, the territory is so deep that no powerful country can even think of swallowing it up in one go. Only the Chu State in the world possesses such geographical conveniences."
King Qin Zhaoxiang praised:
"That's not bad. The topography of Chu is only as dangerous as Ba and Shu. Since you mentioned the geographical advantage, I guess the next thing to talk about is the weather, time, and people?"
"Grandfather knows me."
"Then there's no need to say it. What you said are just the words of that girl in Huayang. I heard more from my mother. With your words, my ears are ringing with noise. Put a hymn to God
"Li Sao" has been blown up to the sky, as if it can conquer the world with this, haha, it's ridiculous. I will tell you today that there is no weaker country in the world than Chu. This country is sick to the bone. Even a heavy eye from the sky cannot be saved.
, I will tell you the weakness of Chu State. I ask you, do you know the name of the prime minister of Chu State?"
"Your Majesty."
Ying Ji nodded in approval.
"Where's the doctor?"
"Zuo Yin."
Ying Ji tilted his head, slightly surprised.
"Minister of Royal Affairs?"
"Mo Ao."
Ying Ji's eyes had a strange color and he said in a deep voice:
"General."
"General."
Glancing at his great-grandson, who was well versed in official positions in the Chu State and answered fluently, Ying Ji couldn't stand still and moved his legs.
"...Why are you carrying all this? Aren't you being deceived by Hua Yang and want to convert Qin into Chu, and replace all the official positions in Qin with these inexplicable titles of Chu?"
When Ying Ji's biological mother, Mi Bazi, came to power, she wanted to do this. However, before the plan was announced, she encountered strong opposition from Ying Ji and the royal family with the surname of Ying, and eventually it was stillborn.
Mother Huayang asked me to carry it, but I couldn't bear to do it. I didn't expect that I would scare my grandfather today.
