Chapter Forty-six

Xiang Shaolong couldn't go empty-handed yet, so after much thought, he made a pure gold plaque with the words "I wish to be a winged bird in heaven, and a branch on earth."

Li Si is known as the "originator of calligraphy", and the famous seal script tablet "Yishan Stele" is Li Si's masterpiece. Therefore, this poem was naturally written by Li Si. If it is passed down to future generations, it must be worth thousands of gold.

As soon as Xiang Shaolong's poem came out, he immediately fascinated Qin Qing, a talented woman like Ji Yanran, not to mention Wu Tingfang and Shu'er. But when he turned around and made a pure gold plaque, the smell of copper hit his face.

Come on, no matter how beautiful the poems are, they can't cover up his nouveau riche temperament. They all shake their heads and smile bitterly, and actually do some inelegant and vulgar things.

Xiang Shaolong was also helpless and wanted to be arty, but in this era there were not many famous people with calligraphy and painting, literature or antiques. Simply giving gold and silver felt too vulgar. Giving real estate or business, and not having that kind of friendship, he had to give gold letters in the end.

Goddess Qin and Ji Cainv did not let him go. After giving away such a good poem, they also wanted a poem of their own. Wu Tingfang and Shu'er immediately agreed, no one could miss it.

Xiang Shaolong shouted: "These poems are all obtained by chance by skilled hands, there is no way they were written specially."

"A wonderful hand comes by chance" exemplifies the essence of writing poetry, and the girls will not let him go.

Xiang Shaolong asked helplessly: "Which one of you will come first?"

Everyone pushed Shu Er out first. Logically speaking, Shu Er has the lowest status among the girls, and there is nothing she can do to help Xiang Shaolong. But she has been with Xiang Shaolong the longest, and Xiang Shaolong loves him extremely.

I am also afraid that she will have low self-esteem, so I will consider her feelings first in everything, and she will be the first to do good things.

Shu'er also knew that it was all the sisters who gave in. She was grateful, but she didn't refuse and said, "Okay, then I'll come first."

Xiang Shaolong thought for a while and said: "When the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will defeat countless people in the world." The girls applauded.

The second person to be pushed out was Ji Yanran. She had not officially passed the exam yet, but Ji Cainv acted like a domineering female CEO and didn't care about such mundane things at all.

Xiang Shaolong said: "My clothes are getting wider and wider, but I will never regret it. I feel haggard because of Yi."

Qin Qing teased and said: "Fortunately, you came back in time. Otherwise, our Lord Xiang would be haggard and emaciated into a handful of bones. Fang'er, come here." Qin Qing is now vaguely the leader of the girls. Usually when something happens, she will do it.

It's the last.

Xiang Shaolong said to Wu Tingfang: "There was a time when the sea was difficult to deal with, except for Wushan, it was not cloud." Wu Tingfang smiled happily and pushed Qin Qing out.

Qin Qing smiled broadly and looked at Xiang Shaolong.

Xiang Shaolong said: "I don't have the wings of a colorful phoenix, but I have a clear mind."

Seeing that the girls were satisfied, Xiang Shaolong wiped his sweat.

When Lu Buwei married his daughter, the scene was no different than when Xiang Shaolong married Qin Qing. They were both top bosses in Xianyang City.

Lu Buwei went out to greet Xiang Shaolong in person, with a smile on his face, as if there had been no conflict between the two.

Xiang Shaolong met Lao Ai and Han Jie and saw the undisguised hatred in their eyes.

Xiang Shaolong smiled disdainfully, although he castrated them, it was equivalent to saving them, otherwise they might die without a burial place in the future.

Guan Zhongxie is a radiant groom. He married Lu Buwei's daughter Lu Rongnian. He and Lu Buwei have become a family. Lu Buwei will definitely support him even more in the future.

Seeing Xiang Shaolong, Guan Zhongxie immediately came up to him and said, "It's a humble honor for Mr. Xiang to come. Mr. Xiang must have a few more drinks today."

Xiang Shaolong smiled faintly and said: "Master Guan has won a beautiful woman, and with your talents, I will fully assist Mr. Lu. Your future will be limitless, and I also wish Master Guan a prosperous future."

Guan Zhongxie toasted quickly and thanked him repeatedly. Now he did not dare to have the slightest intention of challenging Xiang Shaolong. The gap in status was getting wider and wider. At first, he thought he could catch up, but now, even Lu Buwei is lining up behind him.

I am no longer on the same level as him.

Xiang Shaolong looked at Lao Ai and Han Jie in the distance, and casually said to Guan Zhongxie: "Lao Ai and Han Jie hate me a lot."

Guan Zhongxie was shocked and hurriedly bowed to explain. Xiang Shaolong waved his hand and said: "Master Guan, don't be nervous. I'm not here to cause trouble, and they don't deserve my trouble. Although Master Guan belongs to Mr. Lu,

You may have a different path from me, but I cherish Mr. Guan’s talent. As long as Mr. Guan serves our Great Qin wholeheartedly, he will be a great general who will open up territory and make great achievements for our Great Qin. Don’t destroy it for these two bastards.

These two bastards should be left to fend for themselves. Living will only harm others." He shook his head and walked away.

Guan Zhongxie's face turned blue and white for a while. He was secretly annoyed by Xiang Shaolong's rudeness, but he also felt that his words were right. These two people wanted to take revenge. If anything happened, they must not implicate themselves.

We have no friendship. I should also remind Lu Buwei not to offend Xiang Shaolong because of these two trashes. I have no hope that Lu Buwei can overpower Xiang Shaolong now.

Brother Changping Jun also came. When he saw Xiang Shaolong, he complained: "My eldest sister has almost wiped out the family's wealth. When will your training be a leader? Otherwise, you should ask the king for military pay now."

Xiang Shaolong smiled and said: "Don't worry, your family is rich and you can still bear it."

Changping Jun asked anxiously: "Are you really planning to let her ruin our family?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "What you lost is just a little money, but what you get back is the heartfelt gratitude of those girls. It's worth it."

Chang Ping Jun said: "What's it worth? I just want money." Originally, a noble man like Chang Ping Jun looked down on money the most. He spent a lot of money on weekdays and never thought money was important. However, now my sister

The speed of losing money was so amazing that I finally felt the loveliness of money.

Xiang Shaolong didn't quite understand the thoughts of these girls. When Qin Qing invested in the printing factory, it might have been decided by his family background, and he would never be able to do such a thing of losing money and making a profit.

Lu Buwei was really unambiguous about his son-in-law. As soon as he married his daughter, he began to give Guan Zhongxie opportunities to study and make meritorious services.

Zhao Guo lost Lian Po, which meant that he had broken a leg. This was a good opportunity to bully him. Lu Buwei reported to the King of Qin and requested to send troops to Zhao Guo. Meng Ao was the commander-in-chief, and his sons Meng Wu and Guan Zhongxie were the vanguards.

The King of Qin also felt that it would be beneficial to attack Zhao at this time, so he convened everyone to discuss it.

This time the opinions were relatively unified, and the military also supported the attack on Zhao State, because war is when soldiers show their value. The only difference was who led the troops. No one wanted to miss this opportunity.

Lu Buwei came up with the battle plan to win military glory for his son-in-law. How could he let others argue endlessly?

King Qin was used to Xiang Shaolong being silent. It seemed that he would not speak unless he asked. He might as well take the initiative and asked: "Shaolong, what do you think? Who do you think is suitable?"

Everyone looked at Xiang Shaolong: "Does he want to lead the army by himself?"

Xiang Shaolong thought for a while and said: "I don't agree to send troops."

"What? We've been arguing for so long, and you don't agree?"

Lu Buwei said: "Zhao has lost Lianpo and its national strength is weakened. It is no match for our Da Qin. It is a good time to send troops at this time."

Xiang Shaolong said: "Zhao has Lian Po who is no match for our Great Qin. Although Lian Po is gone, Li Mu is still there. He trapped and killed a hundred thousand Xiongnu soldiers, and the north of Zhao will enjoy peace. From now on, he will focus all his energy on

On my part, Da Qin. Attacking Zhao at this time will inevitably lead to a fierce battle, which is not cost-effective."

Lu Buwei was obviously well prepared and said: "We can unite with Yan to attack Zhao. Cai Ze, the newly crowned king, has been the prime minister of Yan for three years. We now have a very good relationship with Yan. They even sent Prince Dan as a hostage."

, to show friendship. If we and Yan State attack Zhao State, we will definitely win, just like how we united with Wei to destroy Han." He reminded Xiang Shaolong, you did the same thing back then, what are you still objecting to now?

Xiang Shaolong said: "We attacked South Korea in the past in order to destroy the entire South Korea. Can we destroy Zhao State in this attack on Zhao State?"

Lu Buwei said: "We don't need to completely destroy the Zhao State. We only need to get the land between the rivers. To eliminate the Zhao State, we don't have to hurry and can slowly eat away at the Zhao State's land. In this way, our losses will not be great. If the whole country

If we go to war, our losses will be too great and other countries will gain."

Lu Buwei felt that he had considered it very carefully, and the King of Qin and other important civil and military officials also nodded in agreement.

Xiang Shaolong said: "I just want to get the Hejian area, but there are only five cities. Why start a war? Just open your mouth and take care of Zhao."

Everyone is confused. Are you talking in your sleep? In five cities, if your upper lip touches your lower lip, they will give it to you. Are you handsome?

Lu Buwei felt that Xiang Shaolong was amusing himself and said displeased: "He can give it to us if we ask for it? Why?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "Tell him: If you don't give it, we will unite with the Yan State to attack him. If you give it, then he can attack the Yan State. We don't care how much land he gets, and we will not save the Yan State."

Everyone was dumbfounded that he could still do this, and it was a waste of time!

King Qin thought about it and felt that it was very feasible, but he still asked uncertainly: "If we just talk, they can give us five cities?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "I was sent as an envoy to the State of Zhao last year, and I could feel that the State of Zhao was extremely afraid of our country Qin. As soon as Lian Po left, the first thing Li Mu did after becoming Prime Minister was to go as an envoy to our country Qin. It can be seen that it's not just us who don't

He is willing to go to war with the State of Zhao, but the State of Zhao is even less willing to go to war with our Great Qin. With five cities, our Great Qin is neutral. Li Mu does not need to defend our Great Qin, and attacks Yan with all his strength. With his ability, there are not as many cities as he needs.

They didn’t suffer.”

The generals looked at each other and realized that they had nothing to do.

Lu Buwei secretly hated that Xiang Shaolong's strategy was not very clever. He only wanted to achieve military exploits for his son-in-law, so he didn't think about anything else. It seemed that Xiang Shaolong had interfered with this opportunity again.
