Chapter 229 Conflict in the Prime Minister's Mansion

There is no reasonable mechanism or rule for selecting officials in the Qin Dynasty. Whoever the superior wants to be an official can be decided based on his own preferences.

Gao had to conquer the First Emperor with a piece of "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall".

The First Emperor asked Gao to be granted an official position on the spot and promoted him to five levels in a row. In the palace eunuch, Gao Yao truly entered the top leadership.

Yi Xiaochuan was in a good mood, but when he saw Princess Yu Shu sitting next to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng also picked up food for her from time to time, which made him feel unhappy.

In order to avoid suspicion, Yi Xiaochuan cannot express his emotions.

Princess Yushu also pretended not to know Yi Xiaochuan.

The banquet did not end until midnight.

Wang Xiyao walked out of the Mongolian Mansion, and Cui Wenzi followed behind him.

Cui Wenzi said, "Old Cui, I don't have a place to live yet. I'll live in the Taifu Mansion during this period. Can I?"

Wang Xiyao said: "Yes."

Cui Wenzi said: "Wang Xiyao, you should be careful. Li Si and Fan Zeng are very hostile to you. They have both had bad intentions towards you."

Cui Wenzi's state of mind had reached the realm of a living dead, and his perception was very keen. He could not see through the people at the banquet except Wang Xiyao and Fan Zeng, but he could see through every move of others.

Wang Xiyao said: "I have countless enemies. Even if Li Si and Fan Zeng are enemies of me, why should Wang be afraid of it?"

Wang Xiyao, the strong man from Wujian Sect, was not afraid, how could he be afraid of Li Si and Fan Zeng?

Li Si studied under Xunzi, but his state of mind did not break through the sixth sense. He was obsessed with seeking power all his life.

Fan Zeng was the same. After obtaining Guiguzi's "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in the Classic", he did not grasp the essence of it, and he was determined to use the means of the traitors to rebel.

No matter how profound the knowledge is, if you use it improperly, you will gradually become a politician who seeks power.

For the country and the people?

That's what politicians should do.

Politicians only seek personal gain for themselves and their families, and will not take into account the people of the world.

Cui Wenzi said, "My friend, let me bring you a message."

Wang Xiyao said: "Baiyanshan people?"

Cui Wenzi smiled slightly: "He said, you have changed the general trend of the world. We practitioners who are too involved in the court and get too close to the king will affect the operation of the heavenly way, which will be of no benefit."

Fan Zeng can calculate the fate of the Qin Dynasty, and Beiyanshan people can definitely do it, and even the calculation is more accurate than Fan Zeng.

Wang Xiyao said: "No one dares to say that he understands the way of heaven, even gods cannot do it. Wang's arrival in Daqin may not be a part of the way of heaven. What Wang wants to do may not be a practice of heaven. Lao Cui told the people of Beiyanshan that if you have anything to say to me and let him see me in person."

As the head of the Yin-Yang School, the people of Beiyanshan have profound cultivation and mysterious ways, and understand the general trend of the world. They are cautious in the sky, and the dragon sees its head but not its tail.

Even if Wang Xiyao goes to Tangwu Mountain Taoist temple, he may not be able to see the people from Beiyan Mountain.

Besides, if the Beiyan Mountain people really avoided it, it would be meaningless if Wang Xiyao forced him to find him.

What Wang Xiyao had to do next is to get "Lüshi Chunqiu".

...

In the east of Xianyang City, there is a small courtyard.

When Lu Zhi saw Liu Bang come back, she asked quickly: "Why are you back now? By the way, have you met Taifu Wang at the banquet at the Meng family today?"

Liu Bang and Lu Zhi have been to Xianyang for some time.

Juxiantang arranged Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu and gave him an official position. However, Fusu had never made any arrangements for Liu Bang.

Liu Bang was anxious and wanted to find an opportunity to meet Wang Xiyao, and wanted to follow the path of the Grand Tutor and become a high-ranking official.

Don't know Wang Xiyao?

It doesn't matter.

Just know Wang Xiyao.

Until today, Liu Bang realized that Yi Xiaochuan was actually Meng Yi, the second-ranked figure of the Meng family. As long as Yi Xiaochuan was slightly promoted, he could enjoy wealth and glory.

Liu Bang originally thought he would rise to the top, but he didn't expect to meet Gao Yao at the banquet.

At the beginning, Yi Xiaochuan was arrested to build the Great Wall and became a slave to Tuanguo. Gao Yao was arrested and entered the palace and became a eunuch.

It was because Liu Bang returned them and sold them.

Yi Xiaochuan is still in the dark about this matter, but Gao Yao knows the cause and effect.

Fortunately, Gao Yao focused all his thoughts on Ying Zheng and kept introducing Buddha to Ying Zheng and Princess Yu Shu to the wall, but did not notice that Liu Bang was hiding in the crowd.

Otherwise, it is a different story to whether Liu Bang can leave alive.

Liu Bang said: "I met Taifu Wang. However, there were too many people at the banquet, so I didn't have the chance to talk to Taifu Wang. I also met Xiaochuan."

Lu Zhi said, "Xiaochuan also went to the Meng family? Then, we will go to pay homage to the King's tutor tomorrow."

Liu Bang said: "No. We must leave Xianyang at dawn, otherwise we will have to worry about our lives."

Lu Zhi said, "Why do you want to leave?"

Liu Bang said, "Oh. Gao wants to be appreciated by His Majesty and become a high-ranking official. He will definitely kill my life. The reason is a long story. Let's leave Xianyang first."

Lu Zhi didn't want to leave.

But there is no way.

Since she married Liu Bang, she naturally had to follow Liu Bang. Even if Liu Bang went to beg for food, she would follow her husband and wife.

It's dawn.

Liu Bang did not say goodbye to Fusu and Yi Xiaochuan, and took Lu Zhi to leave Xianyang directly.

...

Xiang Liang looked at Fan Zeng in shock: "Leave? Brother Fan, Yu'er and I have just obtained the official position and will soon go to other places to become officials. Then we will have a base. Things are going according to your plan."

Xiang Yu was not understanding and said, "Uncle, why did you leave suddenly?"

Fan Zeng said, "Brother Xiang, Yu'er, this time and that. I have calculated that Ying Zheng will have at most four or five years to live. But last night, I saw Ying Zheng and found someone to extend his life. Ying Zheng still has at least ten years to live, and maybe he can live longer."

If Ying Zheng can live for so long, his previous plans are meaningless.

When he went to another place to be an official, he did not dare to rebel, and could only govern the world for the Qin Dynasty. For Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, what is the point of being such an official?

Xiang Yu had murderous intent in his eyes: "Who? Who is the one who extended his life to the tyrant Ying Zheng? I want to kill him!"

Xiang Liang said, "Brother Fan, is it that old guy Cui Wenzi?"

Cui Wenzi is a miracle doctor.

Xiang Liang knew that Cui Wenzi was not yet destroyed, Xiang Liang had a relationship with Cui Wenzi in Chu.

Xiang Liang believes that he must be a miracle doctor who can prosper his life.

Fan Zeng shook his head and said, "It's not Cui Wenzi. It's Wang Xiyao."

To prolong your life, you don’t have to use medicine. It is also possible to enhance your physical fitness and spiritual realm.

Bang.

Xiang Yu punched the table, and the solid wood short table suddenly split into pieces and cracks appeared on the stone floor.

"It's Wang Xiyao again." Xiang Yu said hatefully, "This guy is always a bad thing. I must get rid of him."

Fan Zeng said: "Yu'er is right. With Wang Xiyao here, it will be difficult to overthrow the tyrannical Qin."

Xiang Liang said: "But we are not Wang Xiyao's opponents."

Wang Xiyao's martial arts are frightening. Now that I think of it, Xiang Liang is still a little scared.

Fan Zeng said: "If you are a human, you will be flawed. As long as you find Wang Xiyao's flaw and plan properly, you can give him a fatal blow."

True is not in charge of the army.

Although Fan Zeng did not command the army, he was a leader of the Guigu. As a qualified strategist, he must be more decisive than the commander.

Xiang Liang nodded and said, "Okay. Yu'er and I will follow Brother Fan's arrangement."

Fan Zeng said, "Brother Xiang, you and Yu'er leave Xianyang first. After returning to Chu, contact the old subordinates in Jiangdong and wait for the opportunity. I stay and look for opportunities to deal with Wang Xiyao."

The situation has changed, and Fan Zeng must adjust the plan. It is a last resort to let Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu return to Chu and wait for the opportunity.

...

Wang Xiyao came to Li Si's mansion: "Left Prime Minister, Your Majesty asked Wang to come and take "Lüshi Chunqiu"."

Li Si frowned. Wang Xiyao actually used His Majesty to suppress himself. However, Li Si is a ruthless person and is not so easy to surrender.

Li Si said: "Teacher Wang, I said that "Lüshi Chunqiu" has been lost. Even if you have your Majesty's imperial edict, I can't take it out. Later, I will go to apologize to Your Majesty."

Wang Xiyao nodded and said, "I understand. Zuo Prime Minister wants to completely break up with Wang. Li Si, you have to think about it. What you are doing now is to deceive the king."

Wang Xiyao walked directly to Li Si's study.

Li Si said angrily: "Wang Xiyao, what do you want to do? This place is the mansion of the original minister, so don't be presumptuous. You are too disrespectful to me."

More than a dozen strong men with swords rushed into the hall and brought Wang Xiyao to the forefront. They were all swordsmen raised by Li Si.

Just by waiting for Li Si's order, they will attack Wang Xiyao.

Wang Xiyao said calmly: "I have the decree of Your Majesty. I come to get the book, but I don't mean to be disrespectful to you, Li Si."

Li Si snorted coldly: "Even if you talk about it today, you won't allow you to do whatever you want."

Wang Xiyao said, "Left Prime Minister, I will tell you that this tutor is not only knowledgeable, but also has a decent skill. Your reliance is just to raise these swordsmen. They are too weak to stop me."

None of the swordsmen Li Si was a master of swordsmanship, nor did they have a master of swordsmanship that combines humans and swordsmanship. They are all second-rate swordsmen.

Wang Xiyao ignored these swordsmen and continued to walk towards the study.

Li Si's face changed and he shouted: "Do it!"
