Kuai Che lived in a single family on the outskirts of Fanyang City. As soon as he entered the house, an old voice said coldly: "You violated the law of holding books by hiding so many banned books."
But under the pear tree in his yard, he saw a white-haired old man sitting cross-legged on the ground. The wooden box buried under the tree was dug out. Inside were dozens of bamboo slips. The old man was looking through it with interest...
"An Qisheng, you old man."
Kuai Che, however, was not angry but smiled: "It's called taking refuge as a guest, but it's actually a thief. You found out all of this."
The old man sitting in the courtyard is actually An Qisheng, who was on Zhifu Island in Jiaodong County and accused the First Emperor of Qin of seeking immortals. The warlocks in the rear were tricked and put on the wanted list...
An Qisheng and Kuai Che are old acquaintances. More than ten years ago, Kuai Che traveled all over the country and by chance, saved An Qisheng who was being chased by his enemies. Only he knew that this so-called "immortal" figure was actually
He is just a weak old man, not to mention immortal. If he is stabbed by an enemy with a sword, he will still bleed. He begs himself to save his life, but later changes his identity, pretends to be a ghost, and claims to be invulnerable to swords and halberds.
Now that Warlock Fang was in trouble and An Qisheng was also implicated, he could no longer stay in Qidi and had no choice but to come to Yan and stay with his old friend Kuai Che for a while. Most of the things about the upper echelons of the Qin Dynasty were told to Kuai by An Qisheng.
Thorough.
Kuai Che was out for the past few days, and An Qisheng was bored at his house. He walked under the pear tree and pushed aside the fallen leaves after piling up the old leaves. He found that the soil underneath was renovated, so he felt moved and tried to dig a few times.
I really found out Kuai Che’s little secret.
These books are really 100% banned. They are called "National Policy", "State Affairs", "Short and Long", or "Shiyu", or "Long Book", or "Repair of Books".
They are all stories about the strategies of political strategists in the past hundreds of years. Unlike poems and books that have been collected, deleted, adapted, and tampered with, once these political strategists' stories of strategists teaching people to play tricks and deceit are exposed, not only will the books be burned, but Kuai Che himself will also be burned.
I can’t eat and walk around!
Kuai Che walked over, picked up the books one by one, read them, and sighed: "I was born at the wrong time. These books could have been brilliant, but now they can only be sealed in boxes and hidden underground, unknown to anyone.
"
"You Kuai Che are also like this book. You were born at the wrong time, so you went to the young master Fusu to give advice?"
An Qisheng leaned against the pear tree and smiled: "But I don't believe that you really want to assist Fusu and treat him as your sycamore branch. Tell me, what is your plan for this treacherous strategist?"
Although Kuai Che only said he was "visiting friends" when he went out, An Qisheng could guess what he was doing when he helped Su Shuaibing stationed in Fan Yang recently with his eyes closed.
I can only guess the real purpose of Kuai Che doing all this.
Also, who is he working for?
Kuai Che did not answer immediately, but brought out a jar of pear wine in the house. After serving An Qi Sheng, he sat opposite each other and said with a smile: "Businesses and sales come and go, and everyone takes what they need. If you tell me, you can
I will tell you my purpose once the Alchemist plans it."
"I?"
An Qisheng didn't look like the immortal on Zhifu Island at all. He smiled helplessly: "You have seen me almost dying. I was just making a fool of myself, pretending to be an immortal for a living, but the lies got bigger and bigger, and finally I had to
You old man, keep on acting."
"It's not just you."
Kuai Che asked to the end.
"Lu Ao, Han Zhong, Hou Sheng, Xu Fu and others, what is their purpose in approaching Qin Shi Huangdi?"
An Qisheng pondered, the magician was defeated, those who were killed were killed, and those who fled fled. Now, there is nothing to hide.
"Hou Sheng is obsessed with immortality, and what he is greedy for is the emperor's financial support, so that he can refine the true elixir; Han Zhong is a member of the Han family, just like Zheng Guo, he is a spy of Han, and he wants to avenge Han, but he has not been found for a long time.
Take advantage of the opportunity; Xu Fu is a solitary person. He hopes to deceive the emperor and take the boys and girls overseas, so that he can become a prince one day..."
Although this group came together to plan, their goals were different.
"As for Lu Ao?"
An Qisheng took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Lu Ao is very ambitious. He hopes to confuse the emperor with Fang Xiandao, and then control his words and deeds, stay away from the ministers, and become a real loner, only listening to the magician Fang."
Say. In this way, he can transform into the great witch of the country, control power and govern the world in the name of seeking immortality for the emperor!"
"Separate the emperor from the ministers and gain profits from it? The ambition is really not small. It's a pity that you missed a move and failed in Jiaodong."
Kuai Che laughed at the other warlock, while An Qisheng stared at him: "I'm done, what about you? Your plot is probably quite big!"
Kuai Che sighed: "I don't have any conspiracy. I just heard that Young Master Fusu came all the way and shared food and clothing with the soldiers. He won the hearts of the soldiers. Even the Zhao people who hated Qin had to admit that this
The young master is quite kind."
"I thought Fusu had strategic ambitions and was deliberately trying to win people's hearts, so I went to see him. If I could help him, I would advise him on military strategies, win his trust, and stay by his side as his mastermind. With the strange strategies I had learned, I
Wisdom is the resource based on the situation, and it is the painting according to the time. This is the horizontal ability; it is the vertical ability to support the emergency, turn danger into safety, and turn misfortune into survival. Use the vertical and horizontal skills to help him in the battle for the heir.
To stand out and become an emperor is to live up to your lifelong learning."
Kuai Che studied the art of Zongheng, a school that was once prominent, but after the unification of the Qin Dynasty, it was completely useless and gradually declined.
"But when I saw him in person and listened to his words, I realized that this boy is really a piece of rotten wood and dung. He cannot be used as a weapon or put on a wall! Sharing food and clothing with soldiers is not about buying people's hearts, but the kindness of women. It is not very pleasing to the people.
The soldiers of Zhao were embarrassed by the soldiers of Qin."
"What's even more stupid is that he has a sword in his hand, but he hands the hilt to others with the sword tip facing himself, hoping that the father and son will be filial. He cried out sadly, how could Qin Shi Huang, who has a tiger and wolf heart, give birth to such a cowardly son?
He has a reputation for benevolence but cannot achieve anything. This is the kind of person that we, the powerful, despise and hate the most!"
"then."
Kuai Che raised his head with a sinister smile: "Since he is destined to be unable to fly and cannot be assisted, I will simply come up with a bad idea and push him closer to the cliff."
After hearing Kuai Che's idea, An Qisheng laughed loudly: "You really want to put Fusu to death! No matter whether he accepts it or not, as long as today's incident spreads and reaches the emperor's ears, your estrangement will
If you make a plan, it will be done."
Kuai Che shook his head: "It takes less than a day to freeze three feet. It is of course not that simple to separate the emperor and his subjects, father and son. But the emperor and his son, called father and son, are actually monarchs and ministers. They are not comparable to ordinary people. As the saying goes, closeness leads to closeness.
, Far away leads to sparseness. The emperor often does not take Fusu with him when he goes on patrol. Now Fusu is on an expedition to a foreign land and will not return for a year and a half. Do you think that without me, there will be no rumors and slander in Xianyang? The other princes will not compete for the throne.
What's on your mind? I'm just adding some ingredients to it."
"When the emperor heard that his eldest son, who was serving as a general outside, had won the hearts of the Yan and Zhao scholars, and even had advisers join him and give him advice, wouldn't he feel a pang in his heart? Over time, he might become alienated from his moral character..."
If at first, Kuai Che really just wanted to see what kind of person Fusu was and help him if he could, then after Fusu kicked him out, Kuai Che quickly changed his mind.
An Qisheng was still a little unable to react. Didn't Kuai Che vow a moment ago that he wanted to assist Fusu and turn his life around? Why did he suddenly change his mind and put him to death?
As everyone knows, this group of strategists, contrary to ordinary people, do not follow their heads but their butts, but their butts follow their heads...
"You really want Qin to be in chaos."
An Qisheng sighed: "To be honest, who are you looking for? A certain Young Master Yan who is hiding among the people and wants to restore the country? Or the heroic hero Lu Goujian who rebelled in Julu County? Or the Lord Canghai who is in danger across the sea?
"
"neither!"
Kuai Che spread his hands and said: "Gongsun Yan first served as the prime minister of Qin, and captured the land west of Wei and He for Qin. Then he became the prime minister of Wei and Han, presiding over the five kingdoms' joint attack on Qin, and even contacted Yiqu to make King Hui of Qin suffer from enemies from both sides.
It’s so embarrassing. Who is he looking for? Qin? Wei? Han?”
"And Chen Zhen was once a traveler of Qin, a traveler of Chu, and even more a traveler of Qi. It can be said that he was from Qin to Chu. Who is he working for? Qin, Chu or Qi?"
Without waiting for An Qisheng's reply, Kuai Che said loudly:
"No, they are all arrogant people who only seek things for themselves!"
Kuai Che stood up proudly: "With verticality and horizontality, there is no horizontality without verticality, and without horizontality there is no verticality. The horizontal can be turned into vertical, and the vertical can be turned into horizontal! This is the true meaning of vertical and horizontal!"
"I, Kuai Che, have learned the art of Sansu Zongheng, so why can't I do things for myself?"
An Qisheng understood that most of the various schools of thought longed for peace in the world and their own knowledge to achieve governance. Only this family of politicians did not seek to govern the world. The other generation only wanted to be a trend-setter in troubled times!
In particular, Kuai Che's Zongheng skills focus on danger and conspiracy. The specific implementation method is to disrupt the situation, then win from the chaos and profit from the chaos. This is a very terrifying knowledge. Once you are not careful, you will be doomed.
, I don’t have the courage far beyond ordinary people, and I don’t have the ability to stay calm in chaos, I’m afraid I won’t be able to control it.
But Kuai Che was very obsessed with this exciting knowledge, almost to the point of obsession.
But what was helpless was that when he finished his studies, the five hundred and fifty years of chaos were coming to an end. Qin's sweep of Liuhe was unstoppable, the situation became increasingly clear, the troubled times were over, and the era of great unification came.
The most useless person in a peaceful environment is probably the political strategist. Not to mention, the Qin Dynasty also strictly restricted the lobbyists who lobbied everywhere, and listed the words of political strategists as banned books and burned them all.
Kuai Che, who had no talent, had no choice but to work hard and waste his time. He hoped that he could be like Zhang Yi, Su Qin, and Gongsun Yan, who worked hard and made great achievements. He did not ask for titles, but only wanted to leave a startling glimpse in this world!
But if the world is not in chaos, how can the powerful and powerful people come to the fore?
Fusu's arrival is an opportunity to encourage him to seize the throne and even fight for the throne in the future. The art of vertical and horizontal will definitely come in handy.
But since Fusu was expected to be unavailable, Kuai Che decided to use him to bring chaos to the world!
Kuai Che said: "The uprising in Qi's fields seems to be booming, but what's the result? It was suppressed in less than three months. This incident is enough to show that as long as Qin Shihuang does not die and the center of the imperial court remains in chaos, he wants to destroy it from the outside.
How easy is it to conquer Qin's great power?"
"But Qin Shihuang was too arrogant and still had no desire to live forever. He has not established a crown prince for a long time. If Fusu, who is most likely to succeed to the throne, is also suspected, exiled, or even sentenced to death, then after the emperor's death, the central government will be in chaos.
Then all the heroes in the world will rise up one after another, and the world will be in chaos again!"
Some people hope that the world will be peaceful, while others are afraid that the world will not be chaotic!
For political strategists, the best era is not when horses are released in Nanshan, where there are no wars in the world, and where the elders and younger ones are in order.
For them, the best era should be to sacrifice gifts and favor war, and to abandon benevolence and righteousness in favor of deceit.
Those who are usurpers and thieves are made kings; the country that is deceitful and treacherous becomes strong!
There is no emperor above and no magistrate below. The winner is the one who wins with strength and power! The war is endless, and fraud and hypocrisy are on the rise!
That’s the stage where talented people can shine!
One word makes a country prosper, another word destroys it; the country where you live is important, but the country you go to is light; one word of anger makes the princes fearful, but if you live in peace, the world will stop! This is what a man does!
Just thinking about it made him excited.
As for the violence caused by the war, with bloodshed all over the country, fathers and sons not in love, brothers at odds, and couples separated, how can we not save their lives?
That is Fusu, what the black men are worried about, what does it have to do with his arrogant people!
Kuai Che drank up the pear wine in the jar, threw it away, buried the dozens of volumes of Zongheng Ce books again, covered them with straw and leaves, and walked into the house.
When he came out again, he had changed his makeup, his beard was gone, his hair style had changed, and he was carrying a bag on his back, as if he had traveled far away.
"Leaving now?"
An Qisheng opened his eyes.
"That's right, I'm leaving."
Although Kuai Che seems crazy and fears that the world will be in chaos, he is extremely calm and clear inside.
"Fusu is confused, but if anyone around him understands and comes to hunt me down, I will die at the hands of a small official."
An Qisheng stood up on crutches. Kuai Che wanted to leave, so he had to leave too and go to others: "Where do you want to go?"
Kuai Che asked An Qisheng a question.
"Where do you think the warlock Han Zhong is, who wanted to avenge Han's destruction of Qin after becoming a Korean prince?"
An Qisheng pondered and then said: "In Shanggu County."
"Then I will go to Shanggu County!"
Kuai Che said with a smile: "I have an idea. If you want to bring chaos to the world, this person is indispensable!"
