"If Brother Wang is really here, why is there no news at all?" Cheng Jiao was a little surprised.
Shuli stood up and walked to the window, looking at the palace in the distance.
There, Li Si was meeting with King Han.
Turning around, Shu Li said, "There are two situations: First, he wanted to give me a surprise, so he didn't hide his whereabouts. Second, he ran away secretly. When Lu Buwei found out, he could only inform him first. Troops assemble."
"Which one do you prefer?"
Cheng Jiao thought for a while and said, "The first option, maybe Brother Wang wants to show up suddenly and see your reaction?"
"My reaction? I'll slap you." Shu Li said matter-of-factly.
Cheng Jiao couldn't help but shrink her neck. After all, he was the one who received the most slaps from Shu Li.
That was really painful.
"But no matter which way, he can't see me anymore." Then Shuli added, "At least he won't be able to see me for a few days."
"Huh? Where are you going, sister?" Cheng Jiao realized that Shuli was leaving.
"Solve your worries, just wait here for your brother Wang. Kill them and protect them."
Gan Sha appeared in the room instantly, knelt down on one knee, "Wei!"
After saying that, Shuli walked out of the room.
Cheng Jiao stared blankly at Shu Li's leaving figure, feeling a little at a loss.
He didn't have time to react, it was too sudden.
At the same time, Cheng Jiao suspected that Shu Li probably didn’t want to see Li Si.
After all, when I didn't see him, I would send him several letters every day to torture him.
If this has really happened, then Shuli will be stopped and urged to go back every day.
After thinking about it, Cheng Jiao decided to run to [Purple Orchid Pavilion] to avoid disturbing him.
No, it's about gathering information.
on carriage
Shuli quietly looked at the various pieces of information in her hands. These were all Tianze's recent actions after returning to Baiyue.
Tianze was just an avenger before. In order to take revenge on the King of Han, and because of being coerced, he acted like a terrorist, wreaking havoc everywhere.
Nowadays, Tianze has truly become a rejuvenator. He has returned to his homeland and begun to curb his former dissent, spread the word about Baiyue's re-emergence, and win over people's hearts.
In short, just follow Tianze to carry out development and organize the masses, and then wait until the auspicious time arrives to shout for the return of Baiyue.
So the most important thing for Shu to do now is to see if Tianze has done anything weird.
For example, go to a tribe, hold a knife and ask the tribe elder if you want to join him in restoring the country.
Only a fool would allow someone to break into his home with a knife. Who knows who is crazy?
That's why Shu Li suggested that Tianze first spread the news of his return, and then slowly spread the news of Baiyue's past glory, and then consider stimulating their desire to restore the country.
The road must be walked step by step, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time.
Shuli discovered that Tianze always wanted to become a fat man in one bite, and he had almost no political talent.
But the problem is not big. In such a tribal country, as long as the leader is brave, there will basically be no big problems.
The premise is that Tianze should not be crazy, just imitate the tyrant and kill people at every turn.
Putting down the information in her hand, Shuli poured herself a cup of tea.
The Qin army approached the border of South Korea, which really surprised Shu Li.
Her original intention was to find an opportunity to kidnap Li Si under some pretext.
This was used as an excuse for Qin to attack South Korea.
At the same time, Hebai is not in harmony with the inside and the outside.
You must first act as if you are completely unable to resist, and fight and run away at the same time, or simply run away.
Just to tell the people in western Korea that the King of Korea has given up on them.
At this time, Bai Yifei appeared out of nowhere, led a group of defeated troops to block the Qin army's offensive, and took the opportunity to counterattack the Qin army.
After a hard battle, Bai Yifei finally defeated the Qin army and regained the lost territory.
In this way, Bai Yefei increased his prestige among the people and laid the foundation for his future as king.
The prototype of Shu Li's original plan was roughly like this.
Originally, Shuli thought of writing a letter back to Xianyang and asking Lu Buwei for his opinion. After all, the old fox's knowledge and knowledge of the city were much deeper than Shuli's.
But the incident happened suddenly, and the Qin army was already at the border.
If the Chu State discovered the military conflict between Qin and Han, they would definitely sit back and wait until the two armies were weak before sending troops to make a profit.
Regardless of whether Chu is attacking Qin or South Korea.
If the Chu State really took advantage, Shuli's plan would be in vain.
So Shuli's trip this time was to go to Chu State, to discuss business with the Xiang family, and to disturb the peaceful Chu State.
After all, Chu State only maintains a relative balance internally. As long as one point is broken, they will become chaotic internally.
The Chu State was different from the other vassal states in the Central Plains.
The countries in the Central Plains are vassal states that developed and grew under the feudal system. Although they have different areas of strength, they are all similar in terms of systems.
Powers are decentralized from the monarch to the subordinate officials. Although the officials or nobles also occupy part of the country's resources, they are subordinates of the princes and do not have a great influence on the development of the country. In other words, they cannot affect the monarch's important
decision making.
But Chu State is different. Chu State implements a divide and rule system.
The division of Chu State had two components:
First, they are the old nobles within the vassal states of the Chu State, who enjoy part of the country's territory and resources. Most of these old nobles are the original families of the Chu State, and they are almost all related by blood to the royal family.
The simplest example is the three tribes of Qu, Jing and Zhao.
The second is the surrounding small princes and small countries that Chu State destroyed. For these small princes and small countries, Chu State did not wipe them all out. Instead, it gave these small countries their original leadership, with the hat of a branch of the Chu royal family, and then turned them into Chu
The country's old clans, while allowing them to control the autonomy of their original territories.
The Chu State's system stipulated that the nobility should have autonomy, just like the enfeoffment system implemented by the Zhou Dynasty. The Emperor of Zhou gave territorial resources and power to the major vassal states. At the same time, these princes were also responsible for the Emperor of Zhou. The Chu State's
The same is true for the partition system. The royal family of Chu State gave these old clans autonomy and fiefdoms, and then these old clans were directly responsible for the king of Chu.
In other words, the nobles of Chu State were able to make laws and form armies within the fiefdoms they controlled.
Therefore, the State of Chu is more like a huge country composed of various clans. The King of Chu only symbolizes the existence of the State of Chu.
So as long as Shu Li exerts a little force, the Xiang family, which is already envied, will attract the greed of other established nobles.
As long as the state of Chu was in chaos, they would have no time to care about what happened to Qin and Han on the side.
After all, it is not as easy to offend a powerful Qin State or attack a South Korea where the gains are not proportional to the effort as it is to bully a new clan.
Shuli fell into thinking quietly.
It seems that King Chu just took over the throne not long ago, right?
