"The reason why the Great Qin Temple is in chaos is not because of the struggle for the throne, but because of the interests of the Chu faction and the old Qin people.”Huhai gritted his teeth. He knew that if he didn't take out something real, he wouldn't give in. Fairy's pride meant that she would be like Baiqi, a fool in politics.
"My father's biggest problem is that Wang Jian, Meng Wu, and even Meng Tian and Wang Ben of the younger generation can't have a place in the court.
In order for them to appear in the court, they had to first make meritorious contributions. Only then would their father be able to rightfully bestow them with titles and official positions, combining them into a force that could compete with the Chu faction and restore the balance of the court.
If they could start a war that could benefit both the Chu faction and the Qin faction, it would ease the internal strife. This was also something that both sides would like to see.”
"Empress Dowager Hua Yang will agree." Yueshen asked suspiciously.
"What is she worried about?" Huhai revealed a sneaky smile.""She used all means possible to force Father to make Lady Purple Scarf the Empress and Fu Su the Crown Prince because she knew that she wouldn't be able to live much longer.
Lord Chang Ping had just become the prime minister and her foundation was not stable. She could unite the ministers of the Chu faction and the Qin ministers who were close to the Chu faction, but Lord Chang Ping did not have this ability.
Once she passed away and lost the harem as her greatest backer, Lord Chang Ping was no match for her father. No matter how powerful the Chu Clan was, they were still outsiders and could only be expelled.
After Wang Bu set up the ancestral temple stele, he had already eliminated the possibility of such a situation happening again. It also caused the hearts of the Qin officials who were close to the Chu faction to waver. It was just that they had not found any important officials of Qin who could serve them.
More importantly, her father had already revealed his killing intent. Her brother and two nephews were the first to bear the brunt. For the survival of the Chu family, she would do anything.
Only war could make his father let go of his hatred and allow Lord Chang Ping to slowly sit on the throne of prime minister. When this opportunity appeared, the first to stop the internal strife was the old empress dowager.”
"But this is contrary to the king's intention of expelling the Chu faction.”Yueshen muttered.
"Weakening, not banishing." Huhai shook his head. This kind of political trickery was easy to understand, but it was a heavenly book to a fairy like Yueshen, whose heart was as cold as ice."The court needs a balance of power.”
"But let Chang Pingjun control the power of the prime minister." Halfway through her sentence, Yueshen knew that she had been foolish. During the war, although Lord Chang Ping had gained the power of the Prime Minister, there were also a portion of the old Qin people who had risen to power because of their military achievements. The difference in strength formed a balance.
And this was also the situation that Empress Dowager Huayang hoped to see. Ying Zheng was not a fatuous ruler, but a King of Qin with great talent and strategy. Without the support of the harem, the greater the power, the more dangerous it would be. Once Ying Zheng waited for her to pass away and made up his mind to reorganize the court, the entire Chu clan would be uprooted.
On the contrary, if the strength of the Chu Clan and the Old Qin people reached a balance, Ying Zheng would not attack the Chu Clan, because he needed the Chu Clan to balance the Old Qin people. This was to prevent these arrogant and despotic old Qin warriors from forgetting who was the true master of Great Qin.
"This kid is terrifyingly cunning.”The Moon Goddess was shocked. This kind of political trickery required not only extraordinary intelligence, but also mastery of the human heart. This was also the reason why he was toyed with by him. No matter how high his cultivation was, he could see through heaven's will. The only thing he did not understand was the ways of the world.
However, this was also the difference between the young masters of the clans and the people of Jianghu. They had been living in schemes and plots since they were born. These things had long invaded their bones and blood.
However, this kid was too young! Could it be that the heavens had blessed Great Qin and given birth to a monster?
Huhai chuckled." Yueshen, you flatter me. Yueshen doesn't understand these things because she never thought of herself as a mortal. A fairy will always be a fairy. Even if she falls to the mortal world, she doesn't care about the mortal world."”
"However, Young Master did not say how to persuade the King of Qin.”The Moon Goddess didn't lose her mind when she heard him shamelessly compliment her.
"Because the Moon Goddess didn't show her sincerity.”Huhai said with a smile.
"Isn't it enough to tell Young Master about the Azure Dragon's Seven Constellations?”Yueshen frowned.
" I still don't know the origins of the Azure Dragon's Seven Constellations," Huhai said in exasperation." I don't know how to find them or how to use them."”
"So young master is not willing to be a young master of Great Qin.”Yueshen said meaningfully.
Huhai was shocked. He suddenly realized something terrifying. It had something to do with his bid to become the director of the Cultural Relics Bureau of Lin County.
The old chief was already at the age of retirement, and the two deputy chiefs and three section chiefs were eyeing the chief's position covetously. Every day, they would jump up and down to give gifts and build relationships, and all of this was seen by the old chief.
At that time, he was also a section chief, but he had no money and gave up. He did not expect the old director to recommend him before he retired. Everyone was dumbfounded.
At that time, he was also confused. He didn't know why such a good thing would fall on his head. It wasn't until he became the director for a long time that he understood a principle. I'm still in my position, and you're plotting to take my position. No matter how righteous your reason is, I won't choose you.
It was precisely because he did not compete and did not pose any threat to the old chief that the old chief recommended him before he retired.
This principle was the same in the Great Qin Dynasty. Because of the support of the Chu Family, Fu Su had always wanted to be the Crown Prince. But, if he were to be the Crown Prince too early, it would be a huge threat to Ying Zheng.
In other words, if Fu Su was made Crown Prince, it would not only threaten the throne of the King of Qin, but also his life.
Huhai shook his head resolutely." I have seventeen brothers above me. I can't even be counted by the number of people. How could I have such thoughts?"”
"Since Young Master doesn't have such thoughts, why do you ask? This is a power that only Kings can control.”The Moon Goddess smiled as if her scheme had succeeded.
"Because if you want to survive in such a dangerous environment, you have to protect yourself by hook or by crook.”Huhai said solemnly," The Moon Goddess doesn't want to give this power to Great Qin; she wants to control it herself. Am I right?”
