Chapter 267
He had an extra sister.
Although he had never seen this sister before, they were of the same bloodline, and he loved this sister who married into the Qin Guo exceptionally much.
Later, another year passed, and another thing that made him even more excited happened.
That was the birth of Fu Su!
Fu Su was the eldest son of Seeing Ying Zheng. If there were no accidents, he could even inherit the position of King of Qin in the future. Although that might be a matter of many years later, for Lord Changping, who was committed to the Qin Guo and the State of Chu being friends forever, this was a matter that made him happy when he thought about it.
Before this, the only King of Qin with the bloodline of the State of Chu was King Zhaowang of Qin, and his mother, Empress Dowager Xuan, came from the nobility of the State of Chu.
It was also during the reign of King Zhaowang of Qin that the relationship between the Qin Guo and the State of Chu reached its peak.
08 Although there are mixed reviews about this King of Qin now, Lord Changping, as the grandson of King Zhaowang of Qin, still admired this grandfather exceptionally much.
After him, although King Zhuangxiang recognized Empress Dowager Huayang as his mother, he was not born to Empress Dowager Huayang, and Seeing Ying Zheng's mother was a person from the State of Zhao. Therefore, Lord Changping urgently needed a King of Qin with the bloodline of the State of Chu to continue to stabilize the friendship between the Qin Guo and the State of Chu.
This time, if he prepared to stop Seeing Ying Zheng from unifying the world, if it succeeded, that would be fine. If it failed, it would likely involve his sister and Fu Su.
Lord Changwen had worked with him for many years and knew very well what he was thinking.
But immediately after, a trace of ruthlessness appeared in Lord Changping's eyes, "If the State of Chu is destroyed, we will all be people of a destroyed country. For the sake of the State of Chu, I can spare no effort!"
After saying this, he said again, "Perhaps Seeing Ying Zheng will change his mind at that time and not destroy the State of Chu, but before that, we must make preparations."
"We cannot pin all our hopes on Seeing Ying Zheng's personal thoughts!"
Lord Changwen nodded.
"What are you going to do? Continue to support the Agricultural School?"
The Agricultural School was an extremely powerful force among the Hundred Schools of Thought. It was once extremely prosperous, but later, for some reason, it declined.
The specific reason was actually related to King Zhaowang of Qin.
In the impression of many people, Bai Qi was given death by King Zhaowang of Qin, but in fact, Bai Qi's true cause of death originated from the ambush of the six halls of the Agricultural School.
After Bai Qi died, King Zhaowang of Qin did not make this matter public. In the end, it was because he also had dissatisfaction and fear of Bai Qi at that time. In addition, if the news that the great general of the Qin Guo died in the hands of Jianghu people spread, it would not be very good to hear.
Therefore, after learning of Bai Qi's death, he issued an edict, making many people think that Bai Qi was given death by him.
This could be considered him taking the blame on his own initiative.
But after this incident, he also saw the power of the Agricultural School and secretly ordered people to suppress the Agricultural School.
Although the Agricultural School was strong, it was ultimately not the opponent of the Qin Guo. Under the deliberate suppression of King Zhaowang of Qin, they continued to decline until Lord Changping took the initiative to contact the Agricultural School and secretly supported the Agricultural School. Only then did the Agricultural School stop its decline. Over the years, they have been constantly accumulating strength in the dark and have a trend of returning to the time of prosperity.
There is a reason why Lord Changping supports the Agricultural School. Besides the power of the Agricultural School, the main reason is that they killed Bai Qi.
Although he admired his grandfather King Zhaowang of Qin, he did not like Bai Qi.
During his lifetime, Bai Qi attacked the State of Chu several times. His title of Lord Wuan was obtained after the battle of attacking the State of Chu. It can be said that he brought great suffering to the State of Chu. The current Nanjun land of the Qin Guo originally belonged to the State of Chu.
The Agricultural School getting rid of Bai Qi can be said to have avenged the State of Chu.
Lord Changping said in a deep voice, "I will continue to support the Agricultural School. For Seeing Ying Zheng, these Hundred Schools of Thought that he looks down upon can sometimes actually play a great role."
"Besides the Agricultural School, in the recent period, I am preparing to go to Luoyang!"
Luoyang was originally the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. After the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was destroyed by the Qin Guo, Luoyang was also occupied by the Qin Guo and later became the fief of Wenxin Marquis Lu Buwei. After Lu Buwei was dismissed from his prime ministership, he left Xianyang and went to Luoyang.
"Are you planning to visit Lu Buwei?" Lord Changwen asked.
Lord Changping nodded, "He was dismissed from his prime ministership because of the Lao Ai incident. He seemed to have no worries when he left, but I can see that he is very unwilling."
"He has operated in the Qin Guo for many years. Although he dismissed many of his retainers, as long as he wants, these retainers are still willing to submit to his door."
The Qin Guo destroying the State of Han caused the people of the State of Zhao, the Wei Guo, and the State of Chu to be wary of the Qin Guo.
As for the remote State of Yan and the State of Qi, because their territory did not border the Qin Guo, they did not have so many worries.
However, the Qin Guo was so powerful that it still made them have some thoughts.
The State of Qi had always been on good terms with the Qin Guo. Previously, the six states said they were allied, but in fact, only five states were allied 910, and the State of Qi never participated in it. Now, the Qin Guo destroyed the State of Han and once again showed its power to the world. In terms of reason and etiquette, the State of Qi had to congratulate the Qin Guo.
But this congratulation was somewhat unusual.
Because King Jian of Qi came to the Qin Guo in person.
This was also the first time in his life that he came to the Qin Guo. Naturally, he was treated generously by Seeing Ying Zheng. After all, King Jian of Qi gave him so much face; if he did not give the King of Qi face, it would be somewhat unreasonable.
At the same time, he did indeed need allies.
After the destruction of the State of Han, the Qin Guo had become the target of public criticism for the remaining countries.
Now, the State of Qi has expressed its attitude.
There were only four countries left that had not expressed their attitude.
The State of Zhao, the Wei Guo, and the State of Chu did not need to be considered. Their territory bordered the Qin Guo, and no matter what, they would be wary of the Qin Guo. As for the equally remote State of Yan, Seeing Ying Zheng could not help but have some thoughts.
After King Jian of Qi's trip to the Qin Guo ended and he returned to the State of Qi, Seeing Ying Zheng wrote a letter to the State of Yan.
This letter was both a threat and a warning.
But it did make the King of Yan feel genuine fear, so he made a decision.
"Dan, go to the Qin Guo and be a hostage!"
He looked at his son, Yan Dan, and said so.
