Prime Minister, don't pick up on integrity

Come out of the palace.After returning to the post house in the carriage, Li Si lay alone on the couch.

The night outside the house was getting darker, but Li Si didn't want to sleep at all. Every word Ying Zheng said to him echoed in his mind. Li Si couldn't help but admit that when he heard the boy grab his sleeve and question him When Qin Guo was good, his heart throbbed slightly.

Regarding Ying Zheng's different treatment and repeated invitations, although Li Si refused again and again, he was inevitably moved.

After two lifetimes, that young man still saw him in the vast crowd and chose him, as if everything was already preordained.

There was silence everywhere, only the sound of clappers could be vaguely heard from outside the post house, Li Si turned over, but still couldn't fall asleep.

After tossing and turning like this, Li Si simply sat up, put on a piece of clothing, opened the door and walked into the yard.

In the square courtyard, the sky was filled with vast stars, and the cool night wind was blowing Li Si's robe. In such overwhelming silence, Li Si couldn't help thinking about it.

Even though Li Si is no longer working for Yingzheng, he still remembers everything about Yingzheng: he became the King of Qin at the age of 13, became the king of Qin at the age of 20, stared at him like a tiger, swept the six kingdoms, and made great efforts to conquer the inner world.

Li Si was also so excited for such a great achievement that he couldn't help himself. It is the dream of many people to leave his name in history and worship his prime minister as a marquis.

But now, when Li Sisi needed to make a choice again, what he thought of was indeed something else, something even more unbelievable.

If Yingzheng's destiny to unify the six countries has long been doomed, what is the point of everything he has done before and now?

If there is really a predestined destiny in this world, what is the meaning of his rebirth?

All along, Li Si believed that the reason why God reborn him was to change all the tragedies that happened before, and Li Si always did the same.

Presided over the reform in South Korea, and then promoted the alliance of the six countries. In this way, even if the Qin State is still the only one, it cannot rush to destroy the country.

In this way, Han Fei will not die, and Ying Zheng will not be able to devote all his efforts to the elusive elixir of immortality.

Such an ending was already the best ending Li Si could think of.

Therefore, for such an ending, Li Si clearly knew that the destiny must not be violated, but Li Si wanted to violate it.

===

After thinking about the so-called destiny, Li Si didn't go back to his room to continue sleeping. He just sat quietly in the yard all night until Pabai in the east slowly got up and went back to his room to get dressed.

Li Si knew that what was waiting for him next was another battle of words and guns on the court hall of the Yan Kingdom. He came to the palace of the Yan Kingdom again in a carriage, and when he entered the palace to wait for the King of Yan, Li Si suddenly heard the words from the king of Yan. There was a burst of laughter outside the gate of the hall, he turned his head and looked back, Yan Dan was walking towards the gate of the hall together with a boy in civilian clothes.

The two teenagers stopped at the entrance of the hall, chatting with each other with smiles, one handsome and the other glamorous, looking extremely pleasing to the eye, and in the court hall, many people were already speculating about the teenager who was with Prince Yandan. What is the identity.

But when he saw this scene, Li Si had already recognized that the other boy was Ying Zheng.Almost at the same moment, Li Si also clearly saw Yan Dan's eyes looking at Ying Zheng, full of yearning and obsession, even a little crazy.

Li Si had seen this look before...

The previous relationship between Yan Dan and Ying Zheng may be much deeper and more complicated than what I guessed. Perhaps it was because of this forbidden love that Yan Dan was willing to be a hostage in Qin State, not for Yan State, but just to leave the Qin State. Get closer to the one you like.

Now it's even more troublesome.

Li Si frowned slightly and shook his head, whispering to himself.

When everyone had arrived and the time for the court meeting had come, the crown prince Yan Dan entered the palace, while the commoner boy left alone.

In the loud call, King Yan stepped into the hall, and all the officials shouted and saluted. King Yan raised his hand and said: "Everyone, will there be any other court today, just for the sake of alliance, in front of Prime Minister Han and Mr. Gongsun Longzi?" Now, if you have any thoughts, you don’t have to shy away from it, just say it.”

As soon as King Yan's words fell, Cai Ze stepped out and said to King Yan, "Your Majesty, I believe that Yan should form an alliance with Qin."

As if he had already guessed what Cai Ze would say, King Yan did not show any surprise. He asked Cai Ze, "Oh? What's the reason?"

"In the past, Yan State joined forces with Zhao, Han, and Chu, but what happened? Zhao Wang broke the contract and wanted to attack Yan. Among the seven countries, Qin State is the strongest, and it has formed an alliance with Qin State, and the two countries will be forever good. , Wouldn’t it be best to stop the army from now on?”

Just after Cai Ze finished speaking, Li Si hurriedly retorted:

"Your Majesty, Qin, a country of tigers and wolves, has already heard of treachery and treachery, and it is absolutely unbelievable."

"Ignorant boy! What nonsense!"

Being interrupted by Li Si, Cai Ze shouted angrily, but even so, it could not cover up the fact recognized by the world. Li Si ignored Cai Ze and said directly to King Li Siyan: "Your Majesty, how dangerous it is to seek skin from a tiger!"

On the other side, although Cai Ze was swayed by Li Si, within a short time, he had already thought of a way to refute. Facing Li Si who was standing aside, Cai Ze asked slowly: "That happened in the past. , How did Prime Minister Han know that Qin will not stop fighting after that?"

It is more difficult to stop a country like Qin than to make a tiger a vegetarian, but Li Si has no way to produce evidence.

Seeing that King Yan had already turned his ardent gaze to Cai Ze, Cai Ze continued to say generously: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince understands righteousness, and is definitely willing to sacrifice for the country and join Qin as a hostage."

While saying this, Cai Ze looked at Yan Dan who was standing on the other side of the hall.

Li Si knew that as long as Yan Dan took the initiative to tell King Yan that he was willing to go to Qin as a hostage, everything would be a foregone conclusion.

He wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked, and he didn't know what to say. At this moment, a old voice suddenly sounded in the hall: "The old man has something to say."

Everyone in the hall looked in the direction of the sound, and it turned out that it was Gongsun Long who had been silent before.

Facing Gongsun Long who suddenly spoke, Cai Ze's eyes were as angry as if he was about to breathe fire. Li Si was surprised and delighted, while King Yan looked at Gongsun Long with great interest and asked humbly.

"Mr. Gongsun Longzi, please speak if you have something to say."

Gongsun Long saluted King Yan and asked Cai Ze:

"The old man just heard from Mr. Gang Cheng that the Qin State is planning to stop the army in the future?"

Hearing the words "Gang Chengjun", Cai Ze's heart trembled. This title was given to him by Qin State. This old man is implying that King Yan is still working for Qin State even though he is in Yan State. .

Thinking of this, Cai Ze snorted coldly, and replied angrily, "That's right."

Gongsun Long was not angry either, he took a few steps in the hall, facing all the ministers, and said slowly: "King Yanzhao recruited talents to destroy the Qi State, and those who are good at using soldiers gathered in the Yan State, and only then did Le Yi break the Qi State." Of the remaining cities, there are only two cities that have not been captured, I would like to ask Mr. Gang Cheng, since the Qin State intends to stop the army, why is it now recruiting soldiers who are good at fighting in Xianyang?"

Cai Ze was speechless, King Yan frowned tightly, as if he was thinking about what Gongsun Long said just now, Li Si hurriedly said: "My lord, it is absolutely impossible for Qin to stop the army. Guohe will fight against Qin!"

King Yan turned his attention back to Li Si. Originally, he also agreed with He Zong, but Zhao Guo was really hateful, and he tore up the covenant without authorization. Now he wants him to pretend that nothing happened and return to the He Zong alliance. I can't swallow this breath.

The ministers above the court also quickly divided into two factions. One faction supported Cai Ze and believed that Yan State should form an alliance with Qin State, while the other faction supported Li Si and advocated the alliance of all countries to fight against Qin State. The quarrel made saliva splash, and a lot of saliva splashed on King Yan's clothes and face.

Seeing that the scene was getting more and more chaotic, King Yan couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted angrily: "Stop arguing! We'll discuss this matter tomorrow!"

After saying that, he walked away.

Looking at King Yan's angry back, Li Si quietly let out a sigh of relief.

The king of Yan said that the discussion will be held tomorrow, which means that this verbal dispute can take a break, and this rest period is also a precious time for him to shake Yan Dan.

In the evening, in the study of the crown prince's mansion of Yan State, a servant hurried into the study.

"His Royal Highness, someone is asking to see you outside the door."

"not see."

Without even raising his eyes, Yan Dan directly refused.

After not hearing the sound of leaving footsteps for a long time, Yan Dan turned his eyes away from the bamboo slips on the desk, and looked up, the servant who sent the message was still standing in front of him.

"Why don't you leave?"

Yan Dan asked in displeasure, the servant showed embarrassment, hesitated for a long time, and then mustered up the courage to say: "Your Highness, the man asked me to show you this."

Only then did Yan Dan notice that the servant was still holding something tightly in his hand. After thinking for a while, he ordered the servant: "Take it here and have a look."

Hearing what Yan Dan said, the servant put a piece of snow-white silk on the desk.

Yan Dan casually opened the folded square piece of silk, and when he saw the word "Zheng" in the center of the silk, he got up abruptly, with a surprised expression on his face.

"Where is that person? Please come in quickly! No, no, I want to meet him personally!"

Prince Yandan, who was usually very indifferent to everything, now seemed like an excited child. He was so anxious that he didn't even put on his shoes, so he rushed towards the gate eagerly, letting his servants chase after him in a panic.

Yan Dan kept saying to herself in her heart:

It's him?It must be him!Will he finally come to see his own?

But when the closed door was opened, and when Yan Dan saw the person waiting outside the door, the flame of surprise in his heart was suddenly extinguished.
