"The clan elders are worried about the inheritance of the clan and say that the king is too self-disciplined. He has been in power for four years and still only has one concubine and one queen." Lu Buwei chose his words carefully.
Preserving the inheritance passed down by the ancestors and allowing the clan to flourish are, in the eyes of the clan elders, even more important than sweeping Liuhe to unify the world.
The clan elders had already had clues that they wanted Zhao Huaizhong to have concubines.
Zhao Huaizhong heard Jiang Shu mention it before, but when the Huns invaded, he put the matter aside.
Hearing what Lu Buwei said, there was only one concubine and one queen, which was still the result of being too self-disciplined. Zhao Huaizhong felt a little ashamed and said with a smile: "What next?
What is the purpose of the clan elders asking Lu Xiang, you and four others to come together?"
Lu Buwei said seriously: "If we spread the branches and leaves of the clan, our Qin Dynasty will be prosperous and people's hearts will be stable. This is also the duty of ministers.
Therefore, the four of us came together to ask the king to take care of the clan and accept concubines while he is busy with state affairs.
The clan elders want to select a concubine for the king."
Wang Jian, Han Fei and Lian Po also looked solemn.
As a monarch, he had few heirs. If Zhao Huaizhong was not a saint, no one could threaten his throne.
If it were anyone else, there would definitely be problems.
So Lu Buwei and others came to join in the fun, because they thought it was a serious matter, and begged Zhao Huaizhong to accept more concubines and boycott family planning.
Except for a few special circumstances, no emperor has only one concubine and one queen, and the configuration is too low.
Choosing a concubine sounds new.
Zhao Huaizhong said: "How do you plan to choose a concubine?"
Lu Buwei took out a book from his sleeves. After unfolding it, he found that there were various procedures for selecting concubines for emperors. The rules were detailed and there were hundreds of them.
"The clan elders are preparing to choose a concubine for the king according to clan etiquette.
I'm afraid that the king will feel extravagant, so I don't plan to tell the world, but the clan elders will send people to inform all parts of Qin's territory, notify the counties and counties of Qin officials to assist, select the girls and send them to Xianyang.
In the end, ten people were selected, and the king personally saw them, and then they were sent to the palace as concubines." Lu Buwei said 1510.
So rough, ten at a time, I am not a fertility machine... Zhao Huaizhong: "I am already thinking about getting a concubine, there is no need to go to various places to screen."
Lu Buwei narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your Majesty, what you mean is that in the land of Xianyang, there will be a woman you like who can enter the palace and become a concubine?"
On the way... Zhao Huaizhong glanced at him and said nothing.
Lu Buwei understood it and stopped asking any questions. He collected the draft brochure in his hand.
Lian Po didn't quite understand the operations of the monarch and his ministers, so he asked honestly from the side:
"Choosing a concubine is a serious matter for the emperor. In the prime of life of the king, one concubine and one concubine are indeed too few. If the emperor's family has a long line of heirs, the country's fortunes will be prosperous and stable.
There are no battles to fight these days, so your Majesty, why not leave the matter of choosing your concubine to me, Lianpo, I will definitely be able to help you choose the most fertile woman, so that your Majesty will not be disappointed."
Thick embryo, what is the standard for a fertile woman?
Zhao Huaizhong ignored Lian Po and changed the subject: "We, the Qin Dynasty, want to establish a new county. How is the progress going?"
"We have sent people to the southwest and north lines, and posted a notice to inform them that, especially in the southwest, there are many scattered tribes. I, the Qin Dynasty, will recruit these tribes to surrender. If they are unwilling to be included in the Qin territory within a time limit, I will send troops to attack them." Lu Buwei said.
Zhao Huaizhong: "General Lian Po loves to fight, so I will leave this matter to the general.
You will command 30,000 fine cavalry and go to the southwest of our Qin territory. If anyone is unwilling to return to Qin, we will send troops to eliminate them.
But you must remember that the purpose of sending troops is to try to get these external tribes to return to Qin to increase their population. The purpose of sending troops is to intimidate, and they cannot kill at will."
A few days ago, Lian Po attacked the Xiongnu and left as soon as he touched them. Feeling that he was not satisfied, he was overjoyed to be able to lead the army again and said, "I will obey the king's orders."
Zhao Huaizhong asked again: "We, the Qin Dynasty, have built academic palaces in various places and selected the teaching lines from the three religions and nine streams. Has it been determined?"
"I have contacted the saints and discussed it many times. At present, I have determined the content of teaching in the enlightenment stage, starting with Confucianism."
Han Fei replied: "The first mirror of Confucianism is the realm of hundreds of volumes of books. As long as you listen to, read, and concentrate on the true meaning of my books, you can create a breath of heaven and earth. This is the righteousness of Confucianism."
Summarizing the practices of each lineage and lowering the threshold of practice as much as possible is one of the ways to enlighten the people.
Promote spiritual practice in schools all over the country. The first level is to start with the realm of Confucian books with hundreds of volumes. It is said that reading hundreds of volumes of books will bring the spirit to China. This is what it means. Reciting ancient scrolls and cultivating the righteousness in the chest can make people know etiquette and understand principles.
This is the one with the lowest entry threshold among the three religions and nine streams, and it is also the easiest to achieve.
“In the second level of cultivation, I still choose to continue advancing with the Confucian lineage.
The second stage of Confucianism is the lotus growing from the brush. After the first stage, the Confucian spirit already exists in the body, and it is released through the lotus growing from the brush in the second stage. At this time, the power of cultivation can be initially applied.
This step is still relatively simple, especially after the saints adjusted it and further reduced the difficulty of practice."
Lu Buwei, as a miscellaneous expert, has quite a lot of experience in connecting various strains. While discussing, he promoted the magic power and performed demonstrations.
A pen with condensed magic power emerged out of thin air in his hand, and he wrote the saint's article:
"Part of the practice of my Zajia family can use virtuality to create reality, and turn it into all kinds of miraculous creations. There are also paintings of boats crossing the river, painting of clouds and rain, which are similar in principle to the second level of Confucianism's painting of lotuses...
…”
"The third level of the Academy's teaching system is based on the first and second levels, and then uses Legalist practice as a connection.
When you first enter Legalism, you can understand the principles and identify falsehood and evil, which can achieve the goal of self-improvement for everyone.
The third step can be to combine the Confucian atmosphere accumulated in the first two steps with Legalism, using the Law as the application and Confucianism as the foundation.
We have tried it, and the two are among the few categories that can be compatible in power at this stage."
"We have only determined the practice of the first three realms now, and we will add to it later and gradually improve it." Lu Buwei concluded.
Zhao Huaizhong: "In fact, there is no need to improve the follow-up. I estimate that after learning the first three parts, everyone will show different talents, and most people will not be able to cross these three stages in their lives.
If there are people with excellent talents, we can guide them to enter different categories and study in depth based on their personal circumstances."
"One more thing. With the opening of schools in various places, there is a serious shortage of teaching." Lu Buwei said.
"Take the first step first, then act according to your ability and gradually expand." Zhao Huaizhong said.
After Lu Buwei and others left, he picked up the Bao Si scroll again and a few things he got from Xia Si.
The head of the female ghost Baosi also poked out of the scroll and watched.
After a while, Zhao Huaizhong reached out and flicked the scroll in front of his eyes.
He flashed and entered the scroll in person.
The internal space of this scroll is similar to a small cave, except that the entrance and the scroll are combined.
Inside the scroll, the space is small, only about three feet in diameter, and the surroundings are filled with a chaotic atmosphere.
After Zhao Huaizhong came in, his eyes were intense and he looked around everywhere.
Bao Si was wearing a white dress with a jade belt tied around her waist, and she stood behind him barefoot.
This small room was like her boudoir. No one had ever been there before. Zhao Huaizhong suddenly came in. Her lips pursed slightly and her eyes with thick eyelashes peeked at the back of the Lord of Qin.
At this time, Zhao Huaizhong came to one side of the space in the painting, slowly stretched out his hand, and touched the chaos in front of him.
Under Zhao Huaizhong's touch, the space barrier rippled like water waves, and interlaced formation symbols emerged.
"Sure enough, there is a hidden space." Zhao Huaizhong muttered.
He activated his magic power, and the space barrier in front of him slowly split sideways, opening like a portal.
This painting turns out to be a suite, with another interior space hidden inside.
Bao Si opened her mouth in surprise.
And just when Zhao Huaizhong opened the hidden mysterious portal, a breath suddenly came out of it, and a figure rushed out, with black air filling his fingertips, and stabbed Zhao Huaizhong between his eyebrows.
This change was sudden and Bao Si was shocked.
Zhao Huaizhong, on the other hand, took his time and pressed down with his hands.
The figure that rushed out from behind the space let out a rapid scream, and was approached by Zhao Huaizhong's power, as if it was wrapped in flames and burned.
"Help...stop."
The figure made an urgent cry.
Only then did Bao Si clearly see that she was an old woman as skinny as a bone, wearing a blue-gray robe, with a petite figure.
She was suppressed by Zhao Huaizhong's power, slowly knelt down and begged softly.
"I have thought it strange before. According to what Xia Si said, Bao Si can allow the people of your Yinnu Cult to advance into immortals and demons and explore immortality.
How could the pope who sealed Bao Si pass this opportunity of immortality to future generations for nothing, and why wouldn’t she use it herself?”
Zhao Huaizhong looked at the old woman in front of him expressionlessly:
"You are that Pope.
To seize Baosi, you need certain conditions, so when you seal her, you also seal yourself in the hidden space of this scroll.
You and she sleep together in the scroll, waiting for the right opportunity to seize her body in order to live forever."
"That time at the Yin Shang Secret Palace, you woke up from your deep sleep, absorbed the Yin Qi in the scroll, and at the same time awakened Bao Si.
It’s just that you never had the chance to do anything else, because the scroll is always in the hands of others, and if you make the slightest move, I will discover it.”
Zhao Huaizhong's eyes were joking: "You are not only the pope who banned the Yinnu Cult in the first place, but you are also a cultivator who is possessed by demons."
Those who practice evil ways can be called demons after they are promoted to the realm of saints.
The Pingyuan Lord Zhao Sheng whom Zhao Huaizhong met before had the power of a saint but not the virtues of a saint, so he should also be classified as a demon.
For example, a person who practices Jie Jiao Dongtian and practices swordsmanship more than a saint can be called a swordsman.
They are not saints in the standard sense either.
The old woman in front of me who once banned Bao Si and hid in the painting is the realm of the devil.
Zhao Huaizhong obtained several items inherited from the Yin Nu Cult from Xia Si, and read Xia Si's memories. After learning about the cultivation methods of the Yin Nu Cult, Zhao Huaizhong became suspicious based on some clues and guessed that there was another person hidden in the scroll.
space.
Moreover, this old woman also has special equipment on her body that can help her hide her aura.
So even Zhao Huaizhong didn't find it until now.
He held it with one hand, imprisoned the old woman with magic power, and immediately walked into the space behind her.
Bao Si couldn't help but be curious, and followed small steps to the entrance of the space, sticking her head in to look inside.
Ps: There is a violation in the previous chapter, that is, the battle between dragon python and fairy grass. Some adjustments have been made.
By the way, besides everyone Mu, are there any good candidates for the concubine?
