Chapter 82 Using a deer as a metaphor for the world
Zhao Gao felt that Bai Zhong deceived him like this because of some personal grudges.
However, they had known each other for a short time and there seemed to be no grievances between them. The king had already given the order and Zhao Gao had no choice but to do it. He asked someone to bring a bow and rush out on horseback before starting to shoot on horseback.
After completing all the movements for one round, Zhao Gao looked at his hands in disbelief. It seemed that he had actually managed to shoot from horseback without falling off.
"I...I did it?"
Zhao Gao muttered to himself in disbelief.
Fusu still didn't understand the purpose of doing this, but when Ying Zheng saw this scene, he was greatly shocked.
With this saddle, you can really ride and shoot.
"Bai Qing, your saddle is very useful."
Ying Zheng said in surprise.
Bai Zhong cupped his hands and said, "I request your Majesty to equip all the war horses in the army with this kind of saddle. By then, even if we encounter the cavalry led by Li Mu, we will have a chance of fighting."
Ying Zheng was filled with anticipation at the thought of being able to defeat Li Mu's cavalry, and said decisively: "I'm sure, I will arrange a group of people after I go back. They can go to Lantian Camp to listen to your command as soon as tomorrow to build that kind of crossbow and saddle. I will
The Great Qin Iron Cavalry must be the strongest."
Bai Zhong thought for a while and then said: "I have one more thing to do. There are five thousand Iron Eagle warriors, but there is still a shortage of five thousand war horses."
"Bai Qing will come to the main hall tomorrow and I will ask Feng Quji to give you money."
"Thank you for your support, Your Majesty!"
Bai Zhong finally settled everything and said: "As for my intention to be the master's teacher, I want to give the master his first lesson today and ask the king for approval."
Fusu felt nervous inexplicably and wanted to oppose this teacher.
But seeing his father's face, which had just calmed down due to the wonderful effect of the saddle, he did not dare to make the king angry again.
"Whatever Bai Qing wants to do, just do it!"
Ying Zheng agreed directly.
With these words, Bai Zhong was completely relieved and said: "Someone, bring back the deer that the young master shot down."
Immediately a soldier walked up and brought back the deer, which was covered in blood.
The deer was not dead yet and made a shrill cry.
He was hit by an arrow in his hind legs and could not die for the time being, but he could not stand up and escape, so he could only let himself be slaughtered.
Fusu couldn't bear to look at it anymore. He felt very uncomfortable when he thought that the deer's injury was caused by himself.
"Master, please dismount."
Bai Zhong said again.
Fusu could only dismount carefully and asked weakly: "General Bai, what do you want me to do?"
Bai Zhong unsheathed his sword, put the hilt into Fusu's hand, and said, "Sir, you see how painful this deer is, why don't you end its pain with one knife?"
"ah?!"
Fusu instinctively withdrew the knife and threw it out, quickly shook his head and said: "No, the teacher said we should be kind, I can't do this."
Ying Zheng's face immediately darkened, and he could see Bai Zhong's intentions, and shouted: "Pick up the knife and kill this deer!"
Fusu said: "Father, the child cannot be like this, please let it go!"
"Pick up the knife!"
Ying Zheng was furious, how could he have such a timid and useless son.
He couldn't accept Fusu talking about benevolence all day long, and raised the whip in his hand, as if to say that if he didn't kill the deer, he would beat Fusu severely.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this."
Bai Zhong stood in front of the whip, picked up the horizontal knife, and put it in Fu Su's hand, saying: "The deer is in so much pain that it keeps moaning. If you kill it with one knife, you will solve its pain, just like in this world."
"Not only our Qin State, but also the six previous Eastern Kingdoms are also in constant disputes."
"Today you beat me, and tomorrow I will beat you. The nobles benefit from the war, and the common people will always suffer. The soldiers who are forced to fight are also the common people."
"Our Great Qin swept across the six kingdoms, unified the world, and wiped out all the nobles of the six kingdoms. Without disputes, the people of Li did not have to die on the battlefield, just like the king asking the prince to kill a deer."
"The moment of killing is cruel, but after the killing, the deer is free."
"The Qin Dynasty unified the world through conquest, and then the people of the world will be liberated."
He held Fusu's hands and slowly said what was on his mind.
"Okay, okay!"
Ying Zheng was in a happy mood.
He seemed to have found a soulmate.
Unexpectedly, the person who knows him best is Bai Zhong.
Sure enough, he didn't misjudge the person.
If we want peace in the world and people to live and work in peace and contentment, the only way is to unify.
How to unify?
He continued to kill, stopped the war with war, and destroyed the nobles of the six countries.
Fusu listened to Bai Zhong's words in confusion, and suddenly felt his hand being pulled.
Bai Zhong grabbed Fusu's hand.
Fusu held the handle of the knife in his hand.
The sword stabbed towards the deer fiercely.
"Young Master has already solved the pain of the deer. What Qin wants to solve is the pain of the people of the world."
Bai Zhong took back his sword, came to Ying Zheng, and bowed deeply: "This is the first lesson I want to teach you."
When Fusu saw the deer, its neck was bleeding continuously, he felt very uncomfortable, but he kept thinking about what he had just said, and he didn't know whether it was the teacher's kindness or Bai Zhong's desire to end wars with war.
The statement is correct.
He fell into repeated entanglements.
"This lesson is great!"
"Bai Qing also taught me a lesson."
Ying Zheng clapped his hands and said.
The look he looked at Bai Zhong seemed to be filled with starlight.
Bai Zhong lowered his head and said, "I don't dare. I just say whatever comes to my mind. I hope I didn't mislead the young master."
Ying Zheng snorted softly and said: "Fusu, don't interact with Chunyu Yue in the future. You don't need to pay attention to Chun Yuyue's words. But what Bai Qing said, especially what he said today, you must think carefully about it when you go back."
He very much hoped that Fusu could have an epiphany.
In the future, when I am gone, there will be someone who can take over and be able to suppress the nobles of the six countries and prevent them from rebelling.
This hope may have to be pinned on Bai Zhong.
Fusu didn't know what to do, so he could only nod his head and agree, and then go back and make it clear to the teacher who he could listen to in the future.
"Send this deer to Yichun Palace."
Ying Zheng said again.
Yichun Palace is where Fusu lived.
Fusu felt even worse when he heard that he was about to eat the deer he had killed.
Ying Zheng continued: "Bai Qing, please accompany me for a walk again."
"only!"
They continued to walk slowly in the garden, chatting as they walked.
Ying Zheng felt more comfortable than ever before.
"Sir, the king has gone far away." Zhao Gao reminded softly.
He had recovered from the shock of riding and shooting, and looked at the king and Bai Zhong like old friends, feeling very envious in his heart.
Fusu slowly raised his head, turned all the thoughts in his mind into a sigh, and then followed Ying Zheng and the others.
The hunt is over.
Wang Jian and Meng Wu came back one after another.
When Li Si saw the relationship between the king and Bai Zhong, he felt better than at the beginning. The two talked and laughed and were stunned for a while.
"Your Majesty, something is a little different."
Prime Minister Wang Wan said in surprise.
Tu Sui nodded: "It is indeed different. I have never been so close to any civil servants or generals before."
Just as they were discussing softly, Ying Zheng suddenly said: "Bring up all the prey you have hunted. I want to see the results."
When they heard that they wanted to compare the results, they smiled knowingly and asked their followers to bring the prey up, thinking that it would make the king happy.
