Chapter 345: Booming the world, everyone is like a dragon [Monday]
In addition to Lu Buwei and three others, those who came to the study to meet him under the imperial edict were also Shaofu and Zhisu Neishi.
A group of people came one after another and took their seats one by one.
Zhao Huaizhong's purpose was to inquire about the situation in Chu and Wei, as well as the current situation of Qin's treasury, money, food, etc., including what news Yan had recently, etc.
Lu Buwei, Li Si, Fan Qingzhou and others understood what was said.
Zhao Huaizhong was planning the time to attack Yan based on this information.
Now, even Shaofu and Zhisu Neishi, who had always been anti-war and strictly guarded the money and food of the Qin Dynasty, have become one-sided in supporting the war.
Because everyone sees the hope of achieving unification.
However, if you want to start another war, the prerequisite is that you can digest the gains from destroying Chu as soon as possible.
"The Yan people have been lobbying to contact the Xiongnu and Qi recently, and they are opening up overseas and other places as a retreat to prepare for emergencies." Fan Qingzhou said.
Zhao Huaizhong sat behind a low table made of purple rhinoceros and dragon sandalwood, holding a white jade pen in his hand, tapping the penholder rhythmically with his fingertips, thinking deeply.
This sum was obtained by him at a certain sacrifice and has been used to review memorials.
The pen edge is made of the bristles of exotic animals, which has the characteristics of never wearing out, and the written handwriting has the function of strengthening memory. It can be used to review memorials, so that the readers can remember it and implement it better.
Zhao Huaizhong's order.
This pen is very suitable for emperors to use to mark memorials.
At this time, Li Si offered advice: "Your Majesty, if the Yan people want to contact the Xiongnu and the Qi people, they can take advantage of the contradiction between the Donghu and the Xiongnu, as well as the Dayue clan.
With the rise of the Xiongnu, all tribes in the grassland were threatened by it.
If the Xiongnu destroyed Donghu, they would become stronger and stronger, which is definitely not what the grassland tribes want to see.
If we make good use of it, we can lead Donghu and Da Yuezhi to attack the Xiongnu from the east and west sides, and then we can help Da Qin attack Yan and eliminate interference from the grassland.
In addition, Qi took action to plunder the lands of both countries in the later stages of the two wars when Qin destroyed Wei and Chu. This shows that Qi is not content with the status quo.
This can also be used..."
Li Si talked eloquently, and what he proposed was all the strategies of the oriole. He used the tactics of persuasion to exploit loopholes, turn things upside down, and turn things around.
Li Si's strategy was ruthless and pragmatic, and he was not a strong talker, but very capable of action. As soon as he finished his words, he took the initiative to ask for help, and was willing to personally go to the Yan and Qi families to lobby for envoys, in order to arouse the suspicion between the two families, and create a better way for Qin to attack Yan.
Good prerequisites.
Zhao Huaizhong discussed various strategies with his ministers, and by the time the meeting ended, it was already very late.
He returned to Wuying Palace.
It's quiet at night.
Jiang Shu had fallen asleep beside her, not knowing what kind of sweet dream she had. The corners of her mouth were raised, and there was a slight smile on her charming face.
Her delicate and sculpted shoulders were slightly exposed from the thin quilt, and her skin was as white as the lustrous jade, warm and smooth.
Zhao Huaizhong quietly got up, put on his clothes, and came to the study room of Wuying Palace.
Opening the window, in the middle of the night, light rain was pouring, gently tapping on the window lattice.
Although it was raining, the night sky was far-reaching and stars could still be seen above the clouds.
Zhao Huaizhong inhaled slightly towards the sky, and instantly, he seemed to have established a subtle connection with the boundless starry sky.
At a level invisible to ordinary people, above the stars in the sky, wisps of light seemed to be falling, eventually converging into a silver beam of light and falling into Zhao Huaizhong's mouth.
The Ancient Sage is a large realm, corresponding to the Daluo Jinxian of Taoist practice, and is divided into five small realms internally.
At this level, one can wander outside the world and live as long as the world.
Even if there are stars in the sky, Zhao Huaizhong can remotely sense Qi and do it with all his strength, even to the extent of picking stars with his hands, which shows that this level of magical power is vast.
Zhao Huaizhong stood by the window, thinking about the future direction, not only his own practice, but also the Great Qin.
Now it's time to consider what to do after the six countries are unified.
After destroying Yan Qi, should he continue to expand his territory and conquer countless lands, or would he start to become involved in the struggle of the three realms after becoming more powerful?
Well, we must first expand the territory of Qin to the territory of China in later generations, and then consider other things.
Then we need to defeat the Xiongnu, Donghu, and even Dayue clan after destroying Yanqi, as well as hundreds of tribes in the southwest and coastal tribes south of Chu... Zhao Huaizhong's thoughts rise and fall: There are some things that can be advanced simultaneously. After unifying the six kingdoms,
, it’s time to add some decorations to the underworld.
There is also the True Immortal Realm. Siying wants to occupy the Jiejiao Dojo because there is an Immortal Ascension Platform in the Jiejiao Dojo. Once opened, she can be transported into the True Immortal Realm...
Zhao Huaizhong thought for a long time, turned around and came to the desk, and wrote down some of the things he thought of.
At this moment, a breath of air swam in the body, and 'it' quietly left the body, emerging silently on Zhao Huaizhong's shoulder.
The breakthrough to the ancient saint realm is a huge level leap.
It has also changed.
In addition to further improving Zhao Huaizhong's abilities, the most intuitive change is the growth in his size.
After reaching the realm of the Great Sage, it seems to have the ability to change its size, ranging from being as large as a dragon to being as small as a mote of dust.
Although it has not shown any changes in size, Zhao Huaizhong can clearly sense its growth as the two become one.
After the ancient sages, its blessings for spiritual practice have also been greatly improved.
Zhao Huaizhong's breath machine can swallow all the world, which is not unrelated to its blessing.
Zhao Huaizhong's ancient sage realm is far beyond that of ordinary golden immortals of the same level.
Before I knew it, the sky was getting dim.
In the next few days, Xianyang in the Qin Dynasty became very lively.
In the middle of the seventh month, King Zhuang Xiang passed away, and in addition to the successive defeats of Wei and Tunchu, there were many happy events.
As the time approaches, Xianyang City is busy with traffic and many people are coming and going.
Most of the ethnic groups in the southwest, the Qin people, the Qin clans scattered in various places, and the important ministers and generals from various counties and counties took the opportunity to return to Xianyang to gather together.
On the official day of King Zhuang Xiang's birthday, the ancient bells of ritual and music rang in Xianyang City, resounding throughout the city.
The birthday banquet will be divided into two parts, namely lunch and dinner.
Lunch was a banquet for the ministers and tribesmen who came to Xianyang from all over the country.
In the evening there was a family banquet, attended only by the Qin clan and some people who were close to the clan.
The luncheon was held in the back hall of Xianyang, and the officials lined up to give gifts.
Zhao Huaizhong asked his father to sit at the table with him and take the main seat.
On his right side sat Queen Jiang Ji, and on the other side of King Zhuang Xiang was Zhao Ji in full dress.
On both sides sat the Qin clan members and ministers, and opposite them were the tribal leaders of various tribes who came to pay their respects to their birthdays, such as the leaders of Yelang and other tribes.
In the sky, the black bird leads many birds to fly, forming a vision of hundreds of birds offering auspicious gifts.
There are also unicorns and other mythical beasts who come together to support the master and his father.
Even the monster knew that the big boss's father had passed away, so he collected fairy grass from Kunlun Mountain and sent it back.
When the main banquet started, seeing hundreds of tribes congratulating each other, it was an unprecedented grand occasion. The old King Qin's face was rosy and he was in a very good mood.
He was so happy that he drank a few more drinks and praised his son happily: "Zheng'er, you have done a good job, which is better than being a father... In the past few years, you have led the Qin Dynasty, and four of the six countries have been destroyed.
I, the people of Qin, have great ambition to march eastward to bring peace to the world, and it is just before our eyes."
The old King of Qin had obviously drunk too much, and his mood suddenly went off the rails: "My son is like this, and I am deeply gratified for my father...it is...that my father is not in good health, and your mother, your mother..."
Dad, what's going on?
Could it be that when a person reaches middle age, there is a lack of wolfberry in the tea cup... Zhao Huaizhong glanced at his mother Zhao Ji on the other side vaguely. It is estimated that his father has reached middle age and had another serious illness. His physical strength has declined, and he has been exhausted at his mother's place.
.
The Zhaohuai Center thought that it would be better to help his father improve his physical condition someday, and then let Mu Yangjing refine a batch of elixirs that would strengthen his body and cultivate his vitality to help his father solve practical difficulties. This should be considered as a birthday gift for him.
My father abdicated the throne to me, and when I compared it before and after sitting on the throne, I must have felt a gap in my heart, and I couldn't express it to others, so it wasn't easy either.
Because the old King of Qin drank too much, the banquet at noon was over, and everything became simple at the dinner.
The next day was July 17, and the sky was sunny.
On this day, Zhao Huaizhong had taken care of all the matters at hand early and was preparing to go to the original Chu and Wei places to see the situation after the two places returned to Qin.
In the afternoon, he traveled alone and began a private visit incognito.
His footsteps are extremely fast. Everywhere he goes, after entering the city, his ears flutter, and the sounds of thousands of people in the city talking and talking can be heard in his ears. It can be called a walking radar.
Everything I saw and heard along the way was piled high.
He first went to Wei, and then to Jiangdong, which is southeast of the original Chu territory.
This was the area where Chu's resistance to Qin was fiercest after returning to Qin.
The place where Xiang Yu made his fortune in later generations was Jiangdong.
Zhao Huaizhong came to a medium-sized city called Peicheng and looked around while walking.
The people of Chu were deeply hostile to Qin because of the limitations of regional concepts in this era. They regarded Qin as a foreign nation.
They did not want to be ruled by foreigners, so they resisted desperately.
If the people of Chu could be allowed to view the Qin people's entry into Chu from a more macro perspective, regard the entire disputes in the Central Plains as an internal struggle, and shift their attention to the disputes between humans and monsters, and even the struggles between the Central Plains and the nomadic tribes, it would definitely
Reduce the hatred of Qin in various places and calm the turmoil in Wei and Chu as soon as possible.
Zhao Huaizhong looked around, thoughtfully.
In the evening, he returned to Xianyang.
In the following days, Zhao Huaizhong went out every afternoon to visit the country and listen to the voices of people everywhere.
By the end of July, Zhao Huaizhong ordered all counties and counties to publicize Qin's previous battles in recent years in resisting the demon tribes and Xiongnu, and comprehensively defeating the Quanrong people, including the losses caused by the Qin army.
Three years ago, when Chu was attacked by monsters, Qin once mobilized troops to help and joined hands with the Chu people to resist the monsters.
The demon clan came to attack in large numbers, but Qin's force resisted the demon clan to the west of the country's border. In one battle, the Qin army lost 60,000 old soldiers.
When the Xiongnu attacked Zhao, Qin also sent troops to join forces with Zhao... and so on.
You must know that in this era there was no clear concept of propaganda warfare. In the face of rebellion and resistance, the only response method was brutal suppression.
However, from the perspective of later generations, in fact, China and China are all from the same clan, same clan, and one country.
Declaring various places what Qin has done over the years can effectively weaken their anti-Qin sentiments.
At the same time, one afternoon at the end of July, the voice of a saint suddenly sounded in the ears of all living beings throughout Qin.
Zhao Huaizhong personally spoke out, talking about the etiquette of saints, talking about Confucian education, and talking about establishing a country based on law.
The target was the places where the people in Wei, Chu and other places had their grievances.
"A gentleman should strengthen himself, so that everyone can be like a dragon, and his virtue can carry everything..."
This is from the "Xiang Zhuan" written by Confucius for the "Book of Changes", which is a grand Confucian classic.
Based on Zhao Huaizhong's practice at this time, his words are as follows as his words. His sage's words are enough to bend the straight ones, even stubborn stones can become spiritual after listening to them, dead people can be half alive after listening to them, and can overturn coffin boards.
The content he preached involved the human and demon tribes, the region of Middle-earth and the nomadic tribes beyond the Great Wall, and the humanities dispute.
If everyone is like a dragon, and the top and bottom of China are of the same mind, then China will prosper and the demon clan will not be a problem.
This is carelessness.
Zhao Huaizhong spoke in simple terms, condemning the inactions of the clans of various countries, and praising the Qin Dynasty, which was his own political policy.
Those who serve as officials should be honest and love the people, and fulfill their duties. This is "a gentleman should stick to his roots, and the Tao will be born from his roots."
Rulers must govern benevolently and love the people, which is to "govern with virtue, like Beichen, who lives in his place and all the stars share it."
Ministers should be loyal to their monarch. "The king should treat his ministers with courtesy, and his ministers should treat the king with loyalty."
People must have ambition and perseverance, "A scholar must be ambitious, and the road ahead is long and arduous."
Zhao Huaizhong's voice was eloquent, preaching about law and principles, agriculture and Confucianism.
Cultivate your character with Confucianism and govern the country with law. The combination of Confucianism and law is order!
This was the first time he spoke out after being promoted to the realm of ancient saints, spreading the word to the world, and it was deafening.
Throughout the entire Middle Earth, there are powerful divine voices, covered by holy power. Anyone who hears them seems to have had their spiritual orifices opened, and can comprehend various truths from the saint's words.
On this day, strange phenomena occurred frequently in various places in Qin. In some places, flowers were in full bloom, and birds and animals communicated with spirits, worshiping Xianyang.
There are practitioners who listen to the teachings of saints and increase their practice.
In the border town of Chu, on the same day, Wang Jian and Wei Liao made a breakthrough at the same time.
In Xianyang, Yin Wugou, who was included in the Sheji Tu and sentenced to death, finally entered the lintel of the saint and successfully broke through.
In the original Chu and Wei regions, some people burst into tears upon hearing the people's righteousness.
It was not because I understood the true meaning that I cried, but because Zhao Huaizhong's voice of saint forcibly refreshed my three views. I felt that what I had done to oppose Qin in the past was not human affairs, and I couldn't do it without crying.
After this day, it can be predicted that the resistance of Chu and Wei against Qin will weaken significantly.
Qin will absorb and digest the gains from destroying Wei and Chu at a faster speed, and the expected time to attack Yan will also be advanced as a result.
It was a sunny morning in late July.
In Xianyang Palace, a guard came to inform that the former Zhao general Li Mu was asking to see him outside the palace!
