"I've been lazy all day long, and I really can't stand the rules. In addition, I was captured by the first emperor and built the Great Wall for two full years. My heart is full of resentment. I'm pretty good if I don't hold grudges. Why sacrifice your life for her."

Bai Su's tone paused, and he looked at Sister Zheng with a smile: "However...if it's Miss Zhao, maybe I can endure the cumbersome rules and go into an official career."

Chapter 15 Let the political sister drive

The sour plum soup in Wang Jian's hand trembled, and he gave Bai Su a strange look.

This kid said things that he hated His Majesty, but he didn't know that the Miss Zhao in front of him was the Emperor Shihuang he was talking about.

Sister Zheng was not angry at all, and said indifferently: "Do you hate Shihuang very much?"

Bai Su rubbed his chin and smacked his mouth: "If you want to say hateful things, it's not really considered. Although her methods are a bit cruel, the world has just been unified. If not, how to deter the remnants of the six kingdoms is of course even more difficult." What is amazing is her long-term vision."

There was a hint of curiosity in Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes: "Long-term vision?"

Bai Su nodded, and said: "She not only wanted the land of the Six Kingdoms to be returned to Daxia, but also set a precedent unseen in a thousand years, unifying weights and measures, writing, and vigorously promoting the system of prefectures and counties."

"Let the original characters, currencies, and cultural systems, and the lands of the six countries that are different, have a unified foundation."

"It can be said that from today onwards, the history of China will be divided into two parts. The era of numerous countries has come to an end. Her thoughts of unification will be like the bright moon in the sky, shining brightly in every generation for thousands of years. on the window sills of every family's house."

"For generations to come, will the bright moon of Great Summer shine brightly..."

Sister Zheng stared blankly at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes, but her calm heart was full of ripples.

After so many years, no one has ever understood her like this.

Even Fusu, the eldest daughter whom she regarded as her successor, and many civil and military ministers in the imperial court gradually became incomprehensible to her.

She never expected that in this small market, she would meet someone who understood her heart so well.

This made her feel a little embarrassed for a while.

Sister Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and she looked at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes: "Young Master Bai clearly agrees with the first emperor's thoughts, but he doesn't want to be an official in the court at all. Could it be that he feels that the current court is full of crises, and he is worried about being involved in the struggle. That's why you hide in the city?"

"That's it."

Bai Su nodded, this was indeed a part of his worry.

Under the control of the political sister, the current imperial court seems to be as stable as Mount Tai, but in fact it is in a stage of undercurrents.

For example, the unification of the characters can easily offend a large number of talents from the six countries and feel dissatisfied with them.

Confucian scholars in this era are not the kind of weak scholars who have no power to restrain chickens, but rangers who draw their swords at every turn.

For example, Zhang Liang, the leader of the terrorists, even dared to assassinate the first emperor, let alone someone else.

The promotion of the prefecture and county system has caused many children of the royal family to lose the opportunity to crack the soil and become king. They must have resentment towards the reformers in their hearts.

Coupled with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms hidden in the shadow of the empire, the Xiongnu in the north, and Baiyue in the south, there are too many hidden dangers facing the court.

If the political sister controls the government, then these people dare not say anything even if they don't want to.

But the problem is, Miss Zheng has not been around for a few years.

As the successors, Fusu and Hu Yan, neither of them has the prestige and ability of Zhengjie, so they can't suppress this chaotic situation at all.

At this time, he hastily joined him and offended many people in the court.

Once the political sister is gone, in order to stabilize the domestic situation, in the face of the counterattack of the old forces, the new monarch will most likely abandon himself as an abandoned child, so as to reach a certain degree of compromise with the other party.

After all, political struggles have always been cruel, only looking at the pros and cons, not right or wrong.

Don't you see that after the death of duke Xiao, Shang Yang was torn apart by a chariot, and after the death of King Huiwen, Zhang Yi was exiled.

A lesson from the past is a guide for the future, so we have to be cautious.

If there is no long-term and stable support of the imperial power behind him, if he rushes out to offer advice, he will undoubtedly spread his wings on the edge of a cliff, and may fall to the bottom of the valley at any time, and be smashed to pieces.

In the current imperial court, unless the political sister can stay in power for another ten or twenty years, the political situation is stable.

Or he can gain the respect of the political sister, climb to a high position in just a few years, and take power. Even if there are major changes in the court in the future, facing the threat of the old forces, he will still be able to protect himself and not be implicated.

Otherwise, the risk factor would be too high if you jump in rashly without fully preparing.

Although Bai Su admired Sister Zheng very much and agreed with her ideals, she didn't have much thought of defecting to her.

After all, with his knowledge and the help of the system, he can live a prosperous life, so why bother to take the initiative to take risks.

"What if the First Emperor of Xianyang Palace personally came to invite you to help?"

Zheng's slender white and slender jade fingers lifted the black hair scattered between his brows, and gently placed them on Xiu's ears, and looked at Bai Su with roving phoenix eyes.

The white and delicate collarbone shone with a seductive luster.

Bai Su scratched his cheeks, and gave Sister Zheng a strange look: "I said, Miss Zhao, are you a little sleepy? The First Emperor is so tall, with millions of cavalry, in charge of mountains and rivers, such a person, How do you know that a small market person like me?"

"Instead of asking such a bizarre question, you might as well say that you are the first emperor. When the time comes, you will make me a queen, and I will be a father to the world."

Sister Zheng: "..."

Wang Jian couldn't hold back his laughter immediately, choked on the sour plum soup in his mouth, and coughed for a while.

Sister Zheng glanced at her unkindly.

Wang Jian hastily suppressed his smile and wiped the water stains around his mouth.

Bai Su glanced at the two of them with some doubts, the mother and daughter laughed a bit lowly, she just said something casually, and she laughed like this.

Sister Zheng was also a little dumbfounded, she glanced at Bai Su: "I'm just giving an example, will you agree?"

Bai Su rubbed his chin, thought about it: "Of course not."

"Why...why?"

A look of surprise appeared on Wang Jian's face.

As a veteran minister who has followed His Majesty for many years, she has already seen that Sister Zheng loves talent for Bai Su.

Ordinary people were already ecstatic when they heard that His Majesty would summon them, but they didn't expect Bai Su to refuse His Majesty's personal invitation without hesitation, which immediately made her a little curious.

Bai Su pondered for a moment, then said: "Attracting talents is the same as marrying a wife. You need a marriage certificate, a dowry gift, a wedding party, and a wedding banquet to show respect for her. If she calls out, I'll go over, and I'll lose face." what."

"The emperor is a big pig's hoof. The easier it is to get, the less he cherishes it, and the harder it is to get it. On the contrary, he is the best. He will never forget it in his heart."

When Wang Jian heard Bai Su say that His Majesty has a big pig's hoof, his eyelids twitched wildly, and he carefully glanced at the face of the sister Zheng beside him.

Sister Zheng was not angry, but instead asked with great interest: "Then what did Emperor Shihuang do to invite you over?"

Bai Su didn't think too much about it, and just bragged about it on the wine table.

He stroked his chin and pondered for a moment: "At the beginning, in order to invite Jiang Taigong to help, King Wen of Zhou personally pulled the cart and walked 800 steps. Only then did the [-]-year-old country of Dazhou come into being. I am relatively low-key and do not ask for help. Gao, just let her drive the car herself and take the time for eight cups of tea."

The smile on Sister Zheng's face froze suddenly, looking at Bai Su who was talking so eloquently in front of her, she suddenly had the urge to kick him hard.

You really dare to think that you want to drive yourself to meet him in person.

No.16 The eldest daughter Fusu

The night is getting darker.

In the wing room, the lights flickered.

"This guy actually wants me to drive for him..."

In Sister Zheng's mind, Bai Su's smiling face suddenly wanted to laugh.

After Wang Jian pondered for a while, he said: "People don't waste young people frivolously. This young man is at a weak age, but he is full of ingenuity. It is normal for him to speak frivolously. Your Majesty need not be angry."

"I'm not angry, it's just a little funny in my heart."

Sister Zheng glanced at her phoenix eyes, and shook her head at Bai Su's room next door.

People have always misunderstood her, thinking that the first emperor in Xianyang Palace was a tyrant who killed countless people, and anyone who dared to disobey her would be dragged out.

But the fact is exactly the opposite. She has never killed a meritorious minister, and she even respects talents very much.

After unifying the six kingdoms, she once invited a group of Confucian scholars, hoping that they could be used by the imperial court.

However, they were unwilling to be used by the imperial court. They not only belittled the system of establishing a country by law in front of the officials, but also pointed their noses at her who wanted to unify the language and promote the county system.

Even so, Sister Zheng didn't indiscriminately kill a Confucian scholar, she just let them go.

It can be seen that sister Zheng's heart is as wide as the sea, and she can accommodate all things in the world.

"What does His Majesty think of that kid..."

Seeing that His Majesty was not angry, Wang Jian couldn't help smiling.

A flash of reminiscence flashed in Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes: "This son's vision is precise, and he hits the nail on the head. It is a rare piece of rough jade in the world. It only needs a little bit of carving, and I'm afraid it will be no less than the second Han Fei!"

Wang Jian was stunned for a moment, and a stormy sea suddenly appeared in his heart.

This is really an amazing evaluation.

Others don't know, but as a veteran of the imperial court, she couldn't be more clear about Han Feizi's talent back then.

That was a woman who made His Majesty in Xianyang Palace startled into a cold sweat after only writing two volumes.

In order to get her alone, His Majesty did not hesitate to send hundreds of thousands of troops to start a war with South Korea.

It can be said to be genuine, one person is worth a million teachers.

And Han Feizi is indeed worthy of His Majesty's attention. She quickly formulated a set of theories for His Majesty, unifying the world, establishing a country according to law, strengthening central ||centralization, and autocratic monarchy.

It was on the basis of her theory that the imperial court swept the six countries step by step and unified the world.

But such a genius, because she was born in South Korea, opposed the court's first goal of destroying the country. In addition, she stuttered and was not good at speaking.

As a result, when being besieged by the officials, there was not much power to refute.

His Majesty originally wanted to put on a show, shut Han Feizi up for a while to avoid the limelight, and then find an excuse to release her after the battle to destroy Han was over.

Unexpectedly, Han Feizi was secretly forced to take poison and died in prison.

At the beginning, His Majesty felt a pang of regret for Han Feizi's fall, and now thinking of it, he feels regret in his heart.

His Majesty compared Bai Su to the second Han Fei. It seemed that His Majesty had higher expectations for this kid than he expected.

"However, in my opinion, it is absolutely impossible for this kid to become the second Han Feizi."

After Wang Jian took a sip of his drink, he said with a smile.

"Why?"

Sister Zheng looked over with great interest.

Wang Jian said solemnly: "Han Fei is a person with lofty ideals in his heart, and he respects His Majesty, but this kid has no lofty ambitions, and he doesn't care about high official careers."

"But seeing His Majesty's beautiful appearance, a womanizer who is greedy for His Majesty's body will naturally not become the second Han Fei."

Sister Zheng was stunned for a moment, thinking back to the smiling figure who wanted to marry her, she couldn't laugh or cry in her heart.

"That said, it's not bad..."

She looked a little helpless on her face, but she didn't have much dislike for Bai Su in her heart, instead she liked him even more.

After all, what worries the emperor the most is not meeting people who are greedy for money, lustful, or flawed.

Instead, he was worried about meeting that kind of perfect saint who had no desires or desires. No matter how talented such a person was, the emperor would not dare to fully trust him.

A talent with flaws is actually better, knowing what he likes and what he hates, such a talent is more reassuring.

"How does Your Majesty want to subdue this kid?"

Wang Jian said with a strange expression: "With the personality of the little princess, I always feel a little unreliable."

Sister Zheng gently put down the wine cup in her hand when she heard the words, recalling Hu Tan's hands on his hips, looking lawless like a little devil, she felt a headache for a while.

She looked at Wang Jian beside her with her phoenix eyes, and said with a smile: "By the way, isn't your daughter sixteen years old this year and hasn't been married yet? This Bai Su is a talent, and it's a good match for your daughter."

Seeing Sister Zheng looking at his daughter, Wang Jian shook his head with a wry smile: "I thought about it, but unfortunately my family is a martial idiot, he doesn't like reading, and he danced with me with swords and guns since childhood. "

"She doesn't like ordinary men. Half a year ago, a man came to propose marriage. She said that if she wanted to marry her, she had to beat her. She fought with him on the spot, and broke the legs of Mr. Wang's family. I personally came to apologize.”

Sister Zheng laughed when she heard this.

Wang Jian rolled his eyes and seemed to think of something: "Your Majesty, isn't there another suitable candidate?"

There was a hint of doubt in Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes: "You mean..."

"From the frontier...His Royal Highness Fu Su."

Wang Jian looked at Sister Zheng, who had slightly frowned eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, she was just a little immature at the beginning, but now she has stayed outside the Great Wall for about half a year, and she must have known her mistake, Your Highness."
