Chapter thirty-eight temptation

In July, the posthumous title of the former king was discussed by Confucian scholars and doctors in the court.

Zhuang Xiang.

He repeatedly conquered and attacked, but failed to succeed in his martial arts. He was called Zhuang.

If you have virtue in opening the land, and if you have armor and armor, you will be called Xiang.

Ying Zheng sat on the throne, without saying a word, quietly watching the ministers quarrel, and finally agreed to the opinions.

This posthumous title is considered a beautiful posthumous title.

But there are also some controversies.

Ying Zheng listened to the ministers' bold evaluation of his father, and some darkness accumulated between his eyebrows.

These people, when the previous kings were alive, were like clay-shaped wooden bodies, often without saying a word, and could even share the wealth and power that the Qin soldiers could not obtain even if they could do their best.

However, when the previous king died, the group of people jumped out again, and each of them was full of courage to praise and criticize the previous kings.

So fun!

The dynasty meeting dispersed, and Ying Zheng invited Qin Xi, Qin Jie, and Qin Han three Qin royal families who had certain real power to the palace.

Of course Sanren was very happy.

——The Yiren asked them to kill Ju Zizhou before, but the three of them chose to stab Yiren on the back, informing Ying Zheng of Yiren's idea, and expressed their statement that they would never attack Ju Zizhou.

At this time, Ying Zheng ascended the throne, and it was the time when the three of them received the reward.

The three of them gathered at three seats on the four-sided table in front of Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng changed his clothes and then poured wine for these three elders who should be "uncles".

"The three uncles are all pillars of our Qin State, and they are all talented people. I don't know what the three uncles are doing now." Ying Zheng put his posture very low.

Qin Xi and the other two looked at each other and smiled.

Aren’t they waiting for today?

Qin Han stood up, took a few steps back, then sat down, bowed and said, "I am concerned about the king, I am..."

Before he finished speaking, Ying Zheng stood up, walked forward, and pulled him up: "What is uncle doing?"

"My elders are young, and they need to rely on the help of the government affairs of the court. When encountering difficulties, they must ask your uncles to give advice on politics. You should love me as if you love your youngest son in your family. How can I accept such a great gift from me?"

"Uncle really killed me. Get up quickly and don't worship me again!" Ying Zheng tried hard to pull Qin Han up.

Qin Han was a little surprised and looked at Qin Xi and others, and made a decision: "I have not made any achievements, but Your Majesty treats me like this, I am really ashamed."

Although he was ashamed, he was not ashamed in his behavior.

——Ying Zheng’s low attitude can be understood as being respectful to the wise and the poor and rewarding their effectiveness, but at this time, he regards himself as a junior, which shows one thing.

Ying Zheng, I have something to ask for!

Since you have something to ask for, it is natural to be low and high rewards.

The Qin and Han dynasties all let go.

Ying Zheng felt a little worried when he saw the three of them.

These three... are not very smart.

I don’t know if they have the ability to kill Lu Buwei.

It seems that we need to make more preparations.

Ying Zheng thought, sat in front of the three of them, and the four of them surrounded the square table and spoke slowly.

"Does the three uncles have a way to accommodate the soldiers from this battle?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Of course, it is based on Qin's laws." Qin Xi said: "The king does not have to worry about this. The soldiers are defeated. Although the war is defeated, the land is taken away, so the soldiers' merits must not be lost! The king gives enough rewards, so the soldiers will have no resentment. In the future, the king recruits soldiers, and the Qin people will still actively fight!"

"But..." Ying Zheng hesitated.

"Does the king have any doubts?" Qin Han looked at Ying Zheng and asked curiously.

Ying Zheng smiled shyly: "Uncle, Zheng is thinking, if the reward is carried out according to Qin laws... According to the current situation, Zheng will not have the opportunity to grasp the reward, right?"

When Qin Jie heard this, he gently stroked his beard: "What Zheng'er said is not without reason."

Although Ying Zheng of Qin is the King of Qin, the people who actually hold great power are the Empress Dowager Huayang, the Sanren of Qin Xi, Lu Buwei, and some military titles.

Ying Zheng...he is just a shell.

What he could really hold in his hand was some of the money left by the former kings and those of the peasant association.

And you have to find various excuses to spend money and mobilize resources.

This feeling of frustration is unbearable.

"Zheng is worried..." Ying Zheng sighed: "According to Qin's laws, Prime Minister Wenxin Hou Lu Buwei is an unavoidable person."

"He had attacked Zheng before." Ying Zheng shook his head, looking a little scared: "If he really asked him to do the reward, then if he followed his power to do the decree and establishment in the future, how should Zheng deal with it?"

"It's not without reason." Qin Xi nodded: "So what is the king planning to do?"

"Zheng was thinking, should we support some of my own people!" Ying Zheng seemed a little nervous: "What do you think of the three uncles?"

"The king should raise some of his own people." Qin Han asked, "Then the king thinks, what should you do?"

"How should we help the king?"

Ying Zheng thought for a while and said, "The three uncles thought that the fiefs of 100,000 households in Luoyang were rich, can they raise three thousand armored soldiers?"

Qin Xi and the other two changed their color together.

The 100,000 households in Luoyang are the fief of Lu Buwei!

The three of them looked at each other.

Snake swallows an elephant?

Qin Han shook his head slightly.

He didn't think Ying Zheng was so stupid.

Now, Lu Buwei is in full swing, and Ying Zheng, although he is the King of Qin, has not yet officially ascended the throne and is underage, and Cheng Qi has already moved into the Eastern Palace, he cannot be so greedy and stupid, wanting to eat Lu Buwei alone.

The three were silent.

After a moment, Qin Xi said, "Your Majesty, although Luoyang is good, it is too far away. It is far away from water and cannot relieve near thirst."

Ying Zheng smiled: "Uncle taught me a lesson."

"What about the copper and iron furnace?" Ying Zheng said with some meaning: "Now, the steel in the copper and iron furnace is unique, and there is no problem."

"This kind of technology, like the thousands of workers, can produce steel, iron and other equipment in a year, isn't it a lot of money?" Ying Zheng asked.

Qin Han was stunned: "Isn't the copper and iron furnace originally Zheng'er your asset?"

It's your stuff, what else do you snatch?

"Ruo Zheng'er said that I would offer this business, together with the fiefs of 100,000 households in Luoyang, with both hands?" Ying Zheng asked, "Can you help Zheng and get rid of Lu Buwei?"

"Hiss." Qin Xi took a breath of cold air.

The three of them looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with horror.

Although the 100,000 households in Luoyang are very valuable, they are actually not very attractive when they are on three people.

Copper and iron furnaces are completely different.

This small factory has now become a popular commodity like a money tree.

Everyone wants this thing.

It's so valuable!

Iron materials are good and cheap, and steel is not expensive, but if you make them into various instruments and sell them, you will not make twice the profit.

That is ten times a hundred times a profit!

And it has always been priceless.

A steel sword can now be sold at a high price of twenty kilograms of gold in Handan, Zhao State.

This is no longer a huge profit. It is simply a robbery of money, but just this is still priceless!

The three of them pursed their lips.

I was moved.
Chapter completed!
