Li Si's point of view is: South Korea is weak and not big, but it connects other countries. As long as it captures South Korea, Qin will be equivalent to laying a wedge in the Central Plains. It can use South Korea as a springboard to attack other countries.
Nothing could be better.
Han Fei's point of view is: To unify the world, you need to have a famous teacher. If you attack South Korea, the name is not justified. South Korea now regards Qin as its suzerain state. Unless it is defeated, South Korea will be controlled by Qin. And they have previously said that they will not attack South Korea.
Yes, attacking South Korea for no reason is treachery.
Even if it is defeated, other countries will definitely unite to resist when they see Qin being so cruel, which will not be conducive to Qin's unification of the world. It is better to attack Zhao first, Qin and Zhao are feuding, and it is hard to say anything about other countries attacking Zhao. South Korea will
Stay at the end, and when Qin destroys the other five countries, Korea will naturally belong to Qin.
The First Emperor hesitated.
On one side is Han Fei, the great genius who wrote "Han Feizi", and on the other side is Li Si, who has solved many problems for himself.
The First Emperor didn't know who to listen to, so he dismissed the two men and decided to put it aside until tomorrow.
As a result, that night, Li Si entered Xianyang Palace at night and said a word after seeing the First Emperor.
"Han Fei is a Korean son, and his position is of course to protect Korea. Your Majesty, can't you even see this clearly?"
The First Emperor suddenly realized this, and in a fit of anger, he sent Han Fei to Xianyang Prison and decided to attack Korea first.
The next day, when his anger subsided, Ying Zheng went to Xianyang Prison in person to release Han Fei, but found that Han Fei was dead.
Then a rumor spread that Li Si was jealous of Han Fei's talent and feared that his position would be compromised, so he poisoned Han Fei to death overnight.
"Senior brother, since the death of senior brother Han Fei, you and I have not been in contact with each other for eight or nine years, right?"
Zhang Cang's fat face was twitching, and his heart was also twitching like his face.
"Today, I will ask the same question again, Senior Brother Han Fei, was it you who killed him?"
Li Si was silent for a moment.
"If I say yes, according to Qin law, I will be punished by being cut in half."
Zhang Cang trembled and moved his body back. He did not recognize this senior brother.
Li Si's words were tantamount to admitting that he killed Han Fei.
If you say yes, you will be cut in half if you violate the laws of Qin, so you can't say it.
But if you weren't the one who killed him, you could just say no. Why bother saying this?
Li Si was silent.
He was ready for Zhang Cang to walk away.
At that time in Jixia Academy, only Han Fei was rich among the three people, and he often supported the two of them.
Zhang Cang was the most fun, delicious and drinkable, and cost Han Fei an unknown amount of money.
Zhang Cang often said to Li Si: "If it weren't for senior brother Han Fei, I would have left Jixia Academy long ago."
Li Si knew Zhang Cang's feelings for Han Fei.
After Han Fei's death, Zhang Cang never interacted with him again. This visit was the first time the brothers had met in so many years.
Gululu~
"You're crazy!"
Li Si snatched the teapot from Zhang Cang's hand and threw it to the ground.
The tea soup is splashing everywhere, and steaming steam can be seen on the ground.
Li Si's anger surged, and his rigid face turned extremely dark.
"This tea soup is freshly brewed, and you just poured it into your mouth. I haven't seen you in these years, so you must be an idiot who doesn't know how to drink hot or cold tea!"
Zhang Cang gasped for air, feeling a strong burning sensation from his mouth to his esophagus and into his stomach.
Just now he was holding the teapot, using his mouth as a cup, and pouring the tea without hesitation.
The hot tea soup flowed in his body, and the high temperature made him very painful.
"Brother, hiss!"
Zhang Cang took a deep breath.
There were blisters on his tongue, which he would inevitably touch whenever he spoke, causing great pain.
"Someone! Get some cold water!"
Gululu~
Poof~
The servants brought cold water, Zhang Cang put it in his mouth, rinsed it out and spit it out, repeating this process.
In this way, all the cold water in the bottle was used up. Zhang Cang finally drank the cold water in his mouth and felt much better. He stopped Li Si who was about to get him more cold water.
"It's okay."
Li Si said complicatedly: "What are you doing? I have only heard of men dying for women, but I have never heard of men dying for men."
"It's nothing, just having a seizure."
Cramp.
This was the first time Li Si heard this word.
After thinking for a moment, I roughly understood the meaning of this word.
"The word 'pump' does have some meaning. The action of 'pump' is sudden and short-lived, which matches your behavior just now. You are good at making up words."
"I also heard it from others."
Li Si did not ask who the person was, there was no need.
It's just a word, not a book.
"Senior brother, stop pretending in front of me."
Zhang Cang stuck out his tongue and took two breaths of cool air.
Even after taking a shower with cold water, it still hurts!
"You will definitely not go to Xianyang Palace until you understand the situation. Are you wondering why Meng Yi mobilized the city defense army to arrest people?"
It was like I had never asked Han Fei anything before.
Zhang Cang changed the subject and returned to what his senior brothers had said at the beginning.
In front of Zhang Cang, Li Si really had nothing to hide. They came from the same school and had a close relationship.
He couldn't hide this kind of thing from Zhang Cang, so he wouldn't hide it anymore.
"good."
Li Si nodded.
"Now that the war has ended, there have been several wars in the world. The fertile fields are abandoned and the people are at peace. It is a time to recuperate and recuperate. The Meng family is a family of military generals. Without wars, they will lose their place of use. If the Meng family wants to continue in the court To occupy a place, one Meng Yi is not enough. I guess that the Meng family may have taken a fancy to my position as a court lieutenant. This time is just a test. What I don’t know now is whether His Majesty knows about the Meng family’s actions. Affection."
Poof~
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Zhang Cang couldn't hold back his laughter and pointed at Li Si and laughed.
"Senior brother, senior brother! You are suffering from delusions of being persecuted! Hahahahahaha!"
Li Si looked at Zhang Cang's appearance and knew that Zhang Cang must know something that he didn't know.
Doubts in my heart.
My junior brother is just a censor. He has no high position or power, and he is not even qualified to go to court.
He hangs around the balcony all day long, drunk and dreaming. Is there anything he can know that I don't know?
"Looking at you, isn't it like this?"
Zhang Cang had laughed enough, took a few breaths of cold air and said: "Of course not, Meng Yi's actions this time have nothing to do with senior brother. Military families such as the Meng family never value position, they only value title. Senior brother, you Just do whatever you have to do, just go to the palace to see His Majesty and explain this matter, there is no need to think too much."
Li Si shook his head.
"You know me, but you can't convince me with your rhetoric. Ting Wei is the powerful minister and is in charge of the country's justice. In the absence of war, it is absolutely impossible to be promoted to a noble title without a position of real power. "
"Can you be promoted to a noble title if you become a court captain? There are a total of twenty military and industrial titles in the Qin State. After the fifteenth grade, only military functions can be promoted. Meng Tian is already the sixteenth rank, and Meng Wu is the fifteenth rank. The two of them could not be promoted even if they became court lieutenants. Meng Yi's title is lower, but his internal history is that he is also one of the most powerful ministers, no less than his senior brother's court lieutenant."
"These are the only people from the Meng family who are qualified to take over the post of Senior Brother Tingwei. Senior brother, tell me, who among the three can take over? Senior brother would never think that the Meng family's sea-fixing needle would be the result of the four-dynasty veteran Meng Guild, right?"
"Even if he comes out of the mountain, Duke Meng is the Marquis of Guannei, and the next step up is the Marquis of Che. In the entire Qin State, only the princes became the Marquis of Che by virtue of their deeds in destroying the country. Being a Tingwei, the fifteenth-level junior high rank is already the pinnacle, and senior brother is
Don’t you take the position of Tingwei too seriously?”
Li Si ordered his servants to get some more cold water, pour it into a cup and hand it to Zhang Cang.
"The Meng family has many heirs and has won the trust of His Majesty. It is not surprising that another Meng family member will be elected to occupy the position of Tingwei. You said that I value the position of Tingwei too much, but you can tell me that apart from the actual power of the Tingwei,
, what else is worthy of Meng Yi going to war and arresting people wantonly."
Zhang Cang drank cold water and shook his head helplessly.
Senior brother is still so stubborn and cautious. It seems that if he doesn't tell the truth, senior brother will definitely not believe what the Meng family wants and it has nothing to do with him.
