System: I let you have children, not fight for hegemony

While the entire Bashu County was recuperating and digesting the refugees from Chu State, Qin Wangzheng in Xianyang could not sleep at night facing the new territory.

At midnight, a curtained carriage flew into the sparsely lit Xianyang.

The carriage went straight to Zhengyangfang, which was the official residence closest to the royal city and was inhabited by most of the Qin officials who came in and out of the royal city day and night.

The carriage stopped at the horse racing yard in front of Li Si Mansion. Along with the neighing of horses, a row of figures in black cloaks knocked on the door.

"May I ask, sir, what's the point of visiting late at night?"

"Come by invitation."

In a moment, the door opened.

The black shadow hurriedly walked into Prime Minister Li's Mansion.

Next to the woods under the moonlight, Li Si and the black shadow sat opposite each other.

Li Si opened a jar of monkey wine and poured a glass for Heiying: "Don't say I didn't treat you well. On my wedding day, the Marquis of Ding'an came all the way to send you this."

Li Si's first wife died young and he has been busy with his career and has no intention of marrying again. Later, after establishing a foothold in the Qin State, he was used as a matchmaker by Wang Wan and married into another wife.

As soon as the jar of Houer Wine was opened, the overbearing aroma made people salivate.

There are also stewed lamb, steamed meat, thick pot helmets, etc. on the table, which look very delicious.

The shadow lifted up his cloak, revealing Wei Liao's upright face. He did not move his chopsticks, but said helplessly: "There is no good banquet, what do you want from me?"

Li Si drank three glasses of wine first, then looked around and said to him: "I heard that your "Wei Liao Zi" has been edited?"

This "Wei Liao Zi" was started by Wei Liao's ancestors, revised by his eldest father, then revised by his father, and finally edited and edited by Wei Liao.

This book collects the military experience of the fourth generation of the Liao family, and also adds Wei Liao's new theory on military use. It is very important to Wei Liao.

Wei Liao: "Yes, it has taken shape. What exactly do you want to tell me? Your Majesty doesn't like the close communication among ministers. If we gather late at night, we might arouse people's suspicion."

Li Si glanced behind him uncomfortably, and then got to the point: "What do you think of the attack on Zhao?"

Wei Liao sighed softly, knowing that there was no good banquet.

"The king has ancient ambitions, is wise in heaven, firm and resolute, and has a broad mind. He is an unparalleled wise king!"

Li Si coughed and reminded in a low voice: "Just get to the point."

"The world will be united, and the axis of China must be Qin. However, the six countries have lasted for a hundred years and are not deadlocked. Only by deeply understanding the people's sentiments can..."

Li Si interrupted him: "You mean now is not the right time to attack Zhao?"

After Wei Liao was silent for a while, he nodded solemnly: "It is not appropriate to start another war before next autumn's harvest."

Wei Liao vaguely heard movement deep in the woods, but didn't pay much attention.

But in the next half month, Qin Wangzheng never showed him any mercy, and he didn't know what he had done wrong to make the king unhappy.

In such an awkward court atmosphere, time flies to next year's spring plowing.

Zheng Guo Canal was officially put into use, and thousands of acres of fertile land were added to Guanzhong.

When Qin Wangzheng looked at the endless and bustling farming scene, his heart was filled with great pride again.

Zhao Guo, he must win it!

This year, Qin Wangzheng had very little contact with Duoyu, and the occasional letters were normal official correspondence.

Queen Mother Zhao Ji was very happy to be coaxed by her male favorites. She used herself to save others and wanted to make her son happy: "Can I summon the women in the palace and let the king choose one or two? I heard that the women of Chu sang songs, as graceful as an oriole. ." "I have been busy with affairs recently, so I have no intention of doing this." Qin Wangzheng just wanted to send the Queen Mother away quickly, without delaying his own affairs.

"I heard that your Majesty and the Marquis of Ding'an were having trouble?" Queen Mother Zhao Ji hesitated for a while, then asked.

Qin Wangzheng frowned and said in an unhappy tone: "Nonsense!"

The Queen Mother did not dare to go into details, but said cautiously: "If your Majesty wants to get married in the year of your coronation, you must make preparations in advance."

The wedding process is already cumbersome, let alone the royal wedding. It is normal to arrive a year or two in advance.

Qin Wangzheng put down his brush and fell into deep thought.

Want to marry many fish? I can't imagine what it would be like if my wife were another woman.

Can you marry many fish?

Qin Wangzheng's finger drew circles on the map of Qi, Zhao and Yan. The world was not at peace. How could he cut off his own arms and trap the eagle in a cage?

At least for now, many fish can only be Ding'anhou.

After making a decision in his mind, Qin Wangzheng held a summer vacation super meeting in Zhangtai with great action. The topic of the meeting was the strategy of defeating Zhao!

Li Si oversaw the planning of the meeting, and the participants included Meng Yuan, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, ​​Dun Ruo, Yao Jia, etc., of course not Lian Po.

Lian Po knew what he was doing and asked for sick leave with great self-knowledge. As for when he would recover, it would depend on when Qin conquered Zhao.

Qin Wangzheng leaned back in his chair and set the tone for the meeting: "This court meeting is only to defeat Zhao. You can speak freely."

Li Si took over the conversation, raised his hands to the ministers and said: "The only enemies of Qin are Zhao, Qi, and Yan. Zhao is adjacent to Qin, which is a key point. We must get rid of it first. Please speak to me. ."

Both Dunruo and Yao Jia were famous diplomatic talents in the Qin State, and Dunruo fully demonstrated his mediation skills in the diplomatic relations with Wei.

Although he used money to clear the way and spent a lot of money, it still did not affect his status in the political heart of Qin Wang.

Dunwei: "Through our diplomatic efforts, the foundations of the two countries Zhao and Yan are now greatly loosened."

After saying that, Dunruo gave everyone two pieces of Shu paper, which listed the comparative situation of Zhao and Yan.

Through these pieces of paper, ministers can see at a glance which ministers have been won over and what diplomatic efforts Qin has made.

Dun Ruo really loves Shu paper and the simple and clear tools and forms. Ding'an Hou is such a talent!

"The king was arrogant and extravagant, and acted treacherously. Talented men were demoted, and generals were in danger." Li Si concluded.

This gave everyone a little more confidence in the attack on Zhao.

Since the Battle of Changping, the disputes between Qin and Zhao have continued. Every time Qin thought it could take down Zhao in one fell swoop, Zhao would look back and make up a lot of blood from Yan and Ximian.

Even though Lian Po was gone in the Zhao Kingdom, a younger Li Mu emerged.

Fortunately, Zhao State has collapsed from the inside, and it is at the end of a strong war.

Meng Wu: "The foundation of Zhao State is unstable. We can divide our forces and advance together to form a suspicious army."

Wei Liao: "We will use Taiyuan County as our base camp along the way, march eastward, and then southward, forcing us to the fortress Julu behind Handan to attract the main force of the Zhao army."

"The second line went out to Shangdang and followed the previous offensive route to attack Wu'an, which is the largest city to the west of Handan."

"Three groups, facing Handan directly, with the power of ten thousand troops, will frighten King Zhao's courage!"

Dun Ruo said: "Then we will resort to alienation tactics to create discord among the kings and ministers of the Zhao Kingdom!"

The generals of Qin were brave, but not stupid. Since Li Mu is difficult to deal with, let King Zhao handle it!
