Recently, the people from Qi and Lu have walked out of their homes and gathered outside Ying Zheng's palace. They asked the Qin soldiers standing guard with hope when the next sacrifice will take place.

These people all made a lot of money by this Hongda sacrifice.

The people's prayers naturally came to Ying Zheng's ears soon.

He immediately summoned the ministers to discuss.

If it were some other times, there would definitely be court officials who opposed the sacrifice. And as usual, they would say what was exhausting the people and losing the treasury.

But now, they can't speak.

Because this sacrifice did not waste the people at all.

The people were very happy and they came up with it on their own initiative.

After all, this time, the people who participated in the work had wages, and those who provided utensils for the sacrificial ceremony also had rewards.

And this sacrifice did not hurt money, let alone hollow out the national treasury.

But where did the money for this sacrifice come from?

The court officials thought for a while and suddenly found sadly: The money... seemed to come from them. Isn’t this sacrificial ceremony just done with tickets?

The most pitiful thing is Li Si. He paid so much money and was said to have written an IOU to the exiled immortal, which is simply tragic.

Ying Zheng said lightly: "You guys, what are your opinions?"

A court official stood up and said, "I think... this sacrificial ceremony should not be held too much."

Ying Zheng asked curiously: "Why is this?"

The court official gritted his teeth and said, "I think... although the sacrifice ceremony is not exhausting the people and the money is damaged, the tickets are very expensive. Even the ministers in the court have not had enough money. If this continues, it may be difficult for someone to survive."

Ying Zheng: "..."

This reason is really new.

The court officials were also a little helpless. Although this was true, no one expected that things would develop to this point.

I have to say that the exiled immortal is really a person who is harmful to others and is specialized in official positions.

Ying Zheng looked at the court officials and said lightly: "The worries of all the people are understandable. Huaiguzi."

Li Shui responded.

Ying Zheng said: "What do you think should we do?"

In fact, Ying Zheng also felt that it was indeed a good idea to use the money of the court officials to hold a sacrificial ceremony.

The people are happy, and they are also happy. But what the court officials are saying is the truth, and they cannot make all officials beg for food.

Therefore, he hoped that Li Shui could come up with a suitable solution to take into account all aspects.

Li Shui thought about it and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I have an immature suggestion."

Ying Zheng nodded: "But it's okay to say it."

Li Shui said: "Although the sacrifice ceremony did not cost the people and money, the expenses were still expensive."

"Although my Daqin is becoming richer now, the lives of the people are still very difficult in some places, especially those in remote areas."

"So, I believe that this money should be spent, but it should also be spent on the edge."

"For example, this time, during the sacrificial ceremony, a beauty sprinkled her petals, which is a bit wasteful."

The court officials were speechless: Didn’t you decide the constitution for the sacrificial ceremony? Why did you even scold yourself?

Li Shui said: "But everything is simple and it is not appropriate. In that case, the majesty of Your Majesty cannot be reflected."

"So I suggest that Your Majesty set a rule. A small sacrifice for five years and a large sacrifice for ten years."

"In this way, because it is not a yearly sacrifice, the people will cherish it particularly. Because it has been prepared for five or ten years, the sacrificial ceremony can be even more grand."

"Because I have given the court officials five years to rest and recuperate, the court officials should not feel so distressed when they buy tickets."

courtier:"……"

He is, you can still eat us, right?

After listening to Li Shui's analysis, Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I am worthy of being the exiled immortal of the Great Qin."

Li Shui said modestly: "I am not one ten thousandth of my mind."

Ying Zheng laughed and said to the people around him: "Since that's the case, then that's the matter. Choose a date to announce the list and tell the people."

Everyone agreed and had to retreat one after another.

Some court officials have already started to write their own scripts and are thinking about writing memorials.

I have to find a way to tell Your Majesty, let Your Majesty know how difficult the lives of all officials are...

…………

Qi and Lu are very lively.

But there is a cottage, which is very quiet.

Inside the hut, there was a clown on the playboy.

Cang Fu was tied to a pillar and endured severe torture.

But he always gritted his teeth and insisted that he was not a Dongyi person.

I have to say that this person is indeed a man, at least in terms of his ability to resist attacks, which is admirable.

The young man who guarded the playboy was not in a hurry. After all, it doesn't matter whether this person admits it or not.

On the day of capturing Cangtu, the Qin soldiers raided the Dongyi people's garrison and captured all the Dongyi people.

When Cang Haijun was captured, he was completely confused.

Don’t you want to be the king of Qi? Why did you lose so quickly? You were actually captured by a small team of Qin soldiers?

At this moment, Cang Haijun felt that his world was about to collapse.

From self-confidence to inferiority, it only takes a moment.

Finally, after Qin Bing's questioning, Cang Haijun all asked.

After the Qin soldiers received the confession of Cang Haijun, they handed it to Li Si.

Li Si is the court lieutenant after all.

He looked at the confession and fell into deep thought.

The confession said that a man named Zhang Liang entrusted the Dongyi people to assassinate him.

And this Zhang Liang...Li Si has an impression.

Isn’t that the butler of Huai Guzi’s family?

So... Huai Guzi's butler participated in the assassination?

This is interesting.

This is an excellent opportunity to bring down Huaiguzi.

If you can bring down Huaiguzi, you will never have to pay back your debts again.

Of course, this is just Li Si's imagination.

After all... there were so many good opportunities like this, and everyone thought they could defeat Huaiguzi, but what happened in the end? Instead, they were bitten back and their bodies were different.

Li Si was a little scared.

No, no, Li Si doesn't think he is afraid, Li Si feels... he has become smarter.

Assess the situation and do not make unnecessary efforts.

He walked around the house with his hands behind his back for a night, and he became more and more worried as he walked.

Zhang Liang is a thief, so is Huai Guzi a thief? This is unreasonable.

Therefore, if you want to sue Huaiguzi, you will definitely not be able to win.

But if you put such evidence in front of you, you will feel a little unwilling to accept it if you don’t use it for a while, so you have to get some benefits.

It's really tangled.

Finally, Li Si had an idea and suddenly thought of a solution. He put his confession in his arms and hurriedly walked towards Li Shui's residence.

He planned to sell the confession to Li Shui, and then asked Li Shui if he could use the confession to pay off the debt and exempt some of the debt.
