As he walked, he clapped his hands and said "No" when he walked here, and said "That's not right" when he walked there.
It goes without saying why Fusu suffered so much. It was precisely because Shen Bing's call shook his faith.
This is a kind of pain. Something that you have firmly believed in since childhood suddenly collapses. It is like you have lived wrongly in the past. You have to peel off the things that are deeply engraved in your heart and then tear them out abruptly.
At this time, Fusu felt like there were two people fighting in his heart: one was Chun Yuyue and the other was Shen Bing.
Chunyu Yue was his mentor. Over the years, he taught him many principles and won Fusu's trust. Fusu had no reason not to believe in his principles.
But Shen Bing's words were so loud that they seemed to open a new window in Fusu's heart.
Fusu hoped to use Chun Yuyue's voice to defeat Shen Bing, but under the guidance of Shen Bing's logically rigorous and easy-to-understand story, Fusu suddenly found that all the principles he had learned before were insignificant.
Government depends on people?
There is no way to treat people?
Although there is nothing wrong with these principles, once you apply them under the model proposed by Shen Bing, you will find that they are just scratching the surface.
After much deliberation, Fusu couldn't figure out why, so he shouted outside:
"Here comes someone."
A personal guard came in from outside the tent and saluted:
"What are your orders, Master?"
Fusu said:
"Reply a letter and order the master to come here immediately."
The bodyguard responded and went to deliver the order.
Fusu hoped that Chunyu Yue could answer his questions after he came here, or ask Chunyu Yue what he thought about the story Shen Bing told.
However, what Fusu would want, Ying Zheng would naturally be one step ahead of him.
The next day, when Fusu was anxiously waiting for Chun Yuyue's reply, he saw a guard holding a letter reporting:
"Sir, the Grand Tutor has been sent as envoy to the State of Qi."
Fusu couldn't help but wonder:
"As an envoy to Qi?"
"Teacher just came back from Qi State not long ago..."
The guard could only bow, indicating that he did not know the details.
It turned out that after Ying Zheng received Yang Duanhe's reply confirming that Shen Bing was a qualified teacher, he immediately found Chun Yuyue.
Of course, Ying Zheng would not directly tell the reason for looking for Chunyu Yue.
He sighed in front of Chunyu Yue and said:
"Master, the situation in Qi State is really embarrassing for me!"
Chunyu Yue said curiously:
"Why did your Majesty say this?"
"Qi has always maintained friendly relations with Qin, so why is it so difficult?"
Ying Zheng replied:
"The master doesn't know something."
"Although Qi is friendly with Qin on the surface, it secretly aids Chu."
"When we attacked the Chu State, we intercepted many supplies from the Qi State, including equipment engraved with supervision."
Chunyu Yue couldn't help being surprised and said:
"Is there such a thing?"
Ying Zheng replied:
"In addition, there are confessions from Chu soldiers. We even captured Qi people who came to deliver supplies."
"There are people with stolen goods, how can this be false?"
After a pause, Ying Zheng said:
"But it's not surprising that Qi State did this."
"I, Da Qin, will destroy Zhao, defeat Wei, and attack Chu... Although I have no intention of destroying Qi, Qi is afraid that I have the intention to destroy Qi!"
This was one of Ying Zheng's tactics. He knew that the more he behaved like a humble gentleman, the more King Qi appeared to be a villain.
Even if Ying Zheng does not send Chunyu Yue to go there, Chunyu Yue, an old pedant, will uphold justice for him.
Sure enough, Chunyu Yue cursed angrily:
"This King of Qi, as the king of a country, actually behaves like a villain."
"Your Majesty, please send me an envoy to the State of Qi. I will scold this foolish king to wake him up."
Ying Zheng said falsely again:
"But Taifu has just returned from Qi..."
Chunyu held his hands and said without even thinking about it:
"If the King of Qi can be made aware of his lost ways and the two countries of Qin and Qi can be reconciled, what will my hard work mean?"
"Besides, the journey from Handan to Qi is not far, more than a month is enough!"
Ying Zheng nodded and said:
"This will help you a lot."
So Chunyu Yue prepared his luggage and went straight to Qi State.
Of course Chunyu Yue didn't know that he had actually been tricked by Ying Zheng.
However, Ying Zheng did not lie to him, because Qi State did secretly support Chu State.
But there is a reason for supporting the Chu State... Back then, the Chu State secretly supported the Qi State to defeat the Yan State and even successfully restored the country. Now that the Chu State is in trouble, the Qi State will certainly express its gratitude.
If Ying Zheng tells Chun Yuyue these truths, then Chun Yuyue will feel that King Qi is a benevolent and righteous king.
But of course Ying Zheng would not say that, but he took Jian Feng to him because he was worried about being destroyed by Qin, so he secretly helped Chu.
More importantly, at this time, Qin State does not need to worry about whether Qi State is secretly helping Chu...
The State of Chu was about to be destroyed. Shouchun was captured and the king was captured. The line of the Huaihe River was occupied by the State of Qin. Under this situation, even if the State of Qi wanted to reinforce the State of Chu, it would not be able to cross the Huaihe River.
So what’s the point of going to Qi as an envoy?!
What Ying Zheng did was actually to push Chunyu Yue away and leave Fusu isolated and helpless.
To be more precise, Ying Zheng wanted Fusu to stay at Shen Bing's place and learn something with peace of mind.
Fusu didn't feel anything at first.
Because he remembered what Ying Zheng said to him at the beginning was "go and have a look at Shen Bing's place".
So I thought that the position of military supervisor was only temporary, and I could go back after seeing the situation and knowing the truth.
But after he learned that Chun Yuyue was sent as an envoy to Qi for no apparent reason, he felt that things were not that simple.
"Could it be..." Fusu couldn't help but sigh as he thought about it, and thought to himself, "Father seems to have been prepared for this!"
It can be seen from this that Fusu is actually smarter than Chunyu Yue.
At least he wasn't so pedantic that he paid for someone else's money after being sold.
Shen Bing was not aware of the changes at all, nor did he feel that he had been pushed to the forefront.
At this time, he was in the iron smelting workshop.
Shen Bing did not go there on his own initiative, but came to report that Ben hoped that Shen Bing would go to the Iron Works.
As soon as Shen Bing stepped into the workshop, the iron smelting craftsmen all looked at Shen Bing strangely.
Then he saw Ben running forward in a hurry, cupping his hands and saying:
"Lieutenant General, my subordinate has the courage to ask the deputy general to come here. This matter is really of great importance."
Shen Bing asked:
"Why are you so alarmed?"
Ben respectfully gave way to Kai Lai and made a gesture of invitation. This time, the direction was not the iron smelting workshop but the iron foundry.
As Shen Bing moved forward, Ben followed behind and explained:
"Since the deputy general made the water pipe, we have made several furnaces of iron."
“The quality has greatly improved compared to before.”
"At first, I thought it was a coincidence. I don't want it to be like this every time in the future."
"This confirms what we suspected before..."
Shen Bing said "oh" when he heard this.
This was no secret to him, but of course these ancients would be excited and regard it as a big deal.
