"Hmph, you still used Kong Qiu's words to deceive me, do you really think this old man is a fool?”"Everyone in Xianyang knows about the name of Young Master Lotus," Wei Liao said angrily.”
Huhai was on tenterhooks when he heard the first half of his sentence, but he was relieved when he heard the second half. Moreover, this old man didn't even address him as master or disciple anymore. He said anxiously,"Master, that was Hu Hai's doing when he was young, but after he received Jun Father's inheritance, he had already made up his mind to repent.”
Wei Liao's expression softened slightly and he sighed,""The way of a teacher is to teach and dispel doubts. Moreover, disciples must carry on the master's aspirations. Therefore, every sect is extremely cautious in accepting disciples. They need to observe for a long time to understand their nature and aspirations before accepting them as disciples.
"Once you become a disciple, you will be treated as your own flesh and blood. I agreed to take you in as a disciple because I feel guilty for scheming against a young child. Secondly, you are a talented person who has a myriad of tricks and has obtained Lord Wu 'an's battle formation techniques.
The people of Qin are invincible on the battlefield, but they lose to the people of Chu in terms of tactics. The court also needs a young master who knows how to manipulate power to lead the old Qin martial arts, so they took you in as a disciple.”
"Master, Huhai understands that a teacher for a day is a father for life.”Huhai said solemnly.
Wei Liao was stunned for a moment before he smiled in relief."Just based on your words, let me ask you, are you really willing to be a young master, or a general who fights on the battlefield?”
Huhai gritted his teeth. He wanted to say something but didn't dare to.
Wei Liao shook his head and smiled." If you really have that kind of intention, you have to know how to hide your strength. The King of Qin does not appoint a crown prince. Moreover, before Empress Dowager Huayang passes away and when Lord Changping is still the prime minister, he cannot appoint a crown prince. Do you understand this sentence?!"”
Huhai nodded." Understood. Not appointing Fusu as the Crown Prince is to eliminate the collusion between the harem and the outside world. However, we can't appoint another Crown Prince to cause a strong counterattack from the Chu faction."”
Wei Liao nodded slightly." There is another reason. The king is young and has many children. There is no need to appoint a crown prince early. Once the crown prince is appointed early, the officials in the court will join in. Once this situation occurs, the royal power will be divided and a third force will be formed in the court. It will not be good for the great cause of unification.”
"Huhai understands." Huhai nodded. What Qin Wangzheng did not want the most now was to be restrained. He wanted to leave everything behind and take big strides forward.
"Do you know why I didn't recommend Zhang Han to you?”Wei Liao asked again.
"I don't understand." Huhai shook his head.
"You sure are straightforward." Wei Liao laughed loudly." It's better to not know than to pretend to know. The King of Qin has two secret soldiers. One is the Great Qin Network, which is under Zhao Gao's command, and the other is the Shadow Secret Guard, which is under my command. The responsibility of the Network is to deal with the outside world, and the Shadow Secret Guard is to deal with the inside world. The net was under the control of the Prime Minister's Estate, but it did not have to listen to the Prime Minister's Estate's orders. It directly obeyed the King like the Shadow Secret Guards.”
Huhai finally understood. He was related to the Soul Extinguishing Technique and the Shadow Secret Guards. He also had the support of the old Qin martial artist. Not only was he feared by the Chu family, but even his father would be afraid of him.
He cleverly avoided the topic,"Master, what is the origin of the surname Ji Ling?"”
Wei Liao's eyes suddenly became strange."Why are you asking this?"
Huhai was a little embarrassed. He was tongue-tied, but he couldn't say anything.
Wei Liao was both angry and amused." No wonder Yueshen wanted to harm you. You deserve it."”
"Master, please enlighten me." Huhai didn't say anything.
Wei Liao shook his head with a bitter smile." This surname is extremely noble. It's the surname of the Great Zhou royal family. The Yellow Emperor's surname was Gongsun, and later changed to Ji, so he was called Ji Xuanyuan. He lived in Xuanyuan Hill and was called Xuanyuan. Some people called it the Dihong Clan.
Men used the surname, and women used the surname. For example, in the royal family of the Great Qin Dynasty, the surname Ying was Zhao. Only the direct descendants of the royal family, the king, and the crown prince had the right to use the surname Zhao. Women could only use the surname Ying, or the sons of distant relatives and concubines could use the surname Ying, thus distinguishing them from the direct descendants of the royal family.
Most of the vassals in the world are of the Ji clan, but they all use their fief as their surname. Ji is just their surname. This is how they can distinguish themselves from the Great Zhou royal family and highlight the orthodoxy of their country. The Ji surname, Jia Ling, is only available to the Great Zhou royal family."
Then, he stopped talking and looked at Huhai with a strange look.
"Master, what happened?" Huhai asked anxiously.
"If a woman of high status like the Moon Goddess told you her name, she either wanted to marry you, but you're too young to be considered a threat.”Wei Liao said meaningfully.
Huhai's hair stood on end. Not only did he know her surname, but he also knew her name. Most importantly, he had forced her to take off her undergarment. This was a huge grudge!
Wei Liao looked at his pale face and wanted to curse and laugh at the same time."Little bastard, do you know what trouble you've caused?”
"She wanted to kill me, so I had to strike first.”Huhai said in a daze.
"Pa." He was slapped on the head by Wei Liao, and then he heard him curse angrily,"You don't want to clean up the mess, but you want to kill. You're simply an idiot.”
"Master, there's no way to deal with the aftermath." Hu Hai said bitterly.
"What evil things have you done?" Wei Liao asked suspiciously.
"I can't say." Huhai felt wronged.
"She wanted to kill you, but she didn't say anything." Wei Liao was even more puzzled.
"I can kill her, but I definitely can't tell her.”Huhai said firmly.
"Child, you have a pure face, but you have a fox heart. The Moon Goddess was tricked by your innocence.”"However, I'm a little surprised that you kept your promise." Wei Liao said sincerely.”
"A man cannot be trusted. Since you have promised, you must do it.”Huhai wiped off his cold sweat and said in shame,""As for scheming to kill her, that's not within the scope of my promise.”
"Don't always think about killing people." Wei Liao's expression was serious as he said," You have inherited all of Bai Qi's knowledge and become Great Qin's General, but you must not inherit the name of Ren Tu. This infamy will stop you from becoming an official and you will never be able to advance any further.”
Huhai understood this principle. To become the king of a country, one needed the support of the ministers, especially the important ministers in the court. However, none of the ministers hoped that the king sitting on the throne would be someone who killed without batting an eye.
"Why did Master say that?"”
Correct me, the Ji Ru in the above should be Ji Ling.
