It was not difficult for Wang Ling to see that the third option was to get the sword of the King of Qin from Ying Zheng.
If he could preach to Ying Zheng and make him bow down to him, then his goal would basically be achieved.
After making his choice, Wang Ling began to talk to Ying Zheng with confidence.
"In my opinion, what a country fears the most is the high prestige of its officials and the fact that the king is too close to his officials.”
"This is a road of no return.”
"In the current State of Qin, although Lu Buwei, Marquis of Wenxin, is indeed very prestigious, my old man and many other ministers are also very prestigious.”
"One of the two things that I fear the most is that if my prestige is too high, it will no longer exist.”
As Wang Ling spoke, he raised a finger.
Then, he continued.
"In other words, Lu Buwei doesn't have enough prestige to intimidate the ministers and soldiers into working for him. This is your first chance.”
Obviously, the first opportunity Wang Ling was talking about was those ministers who had not been recruited by Lu Buwei.
Even those who had already been recruited by Lu Buwei but could still be recruited by him.
According to what he remembered, Ying Zheng was able to overthrow Lu Buwei and take back the great power.
One of the most important methods was to recruit officials who had conflicting interests with Lu Buwei and those who had pledged their allegiance to him.
The most typical one was Li Si, who had yet to appear in Xianyang City.
Because of Lu Buwei's relationship and importance, Li Si had a place in the royal court and was appointed as the chief historian.
In the end, he was secretly recruited by Ying Zheng, which not only reduced Lu Buwei's authority in the court.
It had also given Ying Zheng a little more control over the Imperial Court. With one increase and one decrease, it was already a huge blow to Lu Buwei.
Now that he said this, it was naturally a wonderful plan.
Looking at the first finger that Wang Ling put down, Ying Zheng's eyes could not help but brighten.
The expression on his face immediately became even more solemn.
"Please continue, sir."
Wang Ling was naturally very satisfied with Ying Zheng's serious attitude.
He realized that this was the method that Ying Zheng had used in the first place, but now, he was showing off in front of him.
It did feel a little good.
Especially since the other party had the identity of the first emperor.
It gave him a sense of accomplishment when he educated her.
"Secondly, the king is too loyal to his ministers and has no opinion of his own.”
"Fortunately, this is only half reflected in the King of Qin. He is unable to have his own opinions.”
Wang Ling looked at Ying Zheng, whose expression had turned a little silent, and said slowly.
He didn't directly mention any solutions or opportunities. Instead, he pointed out the problem first.
"I... He had no choice but to show his trust to Lu Buwei and let him and the other officials control the court.”
"It's because Lu Buwei is indeed quite talented and most of his decisions are correct, but it's also because he has a large number of henchmen in the court, so it's really difficult for me to interfere too much.”
As Ying Zheng said that, his expression darkened a little.
Of course, he wanted to interfere in political affairs.
Lu Buwei basically wouldn't make any concessions.
When the final decree was passed down, it would still go towards the bottom line that Lu Buwei could accept.
This was also the reason why Ying Zheng was so eager to get Wang Jian's support. He wanted to take the initiative in military power, so that he could have some capital to truly compete with Lu Buwei.
When they had no other choice, they would use the method of mutiny.
It was not difficult for Wang Ling to guess Ying Zheng's consideration.
However, he was almost certain that if Ying Zheng were to use his last resort…
Then the result was almost certain to be a loss.
"Although it is indeed difficult for the King of Qin to interfere too much in the royal court now, it is more because your methods of interference are not brilliant enough.”
Wang Ling shook his head in response to Ying Zheng's explanation.
"Please enlighten me, sir," said Ying Zheng solemnly.”
Looking at Ge Nia's wine cup, Wang Ling smiled and picked it up.
"The most important reason why Lu Buwei, Marquis of Wenxin, could control the court so easily and wield such power in the court is that he has done such a brilliant thing.”
"Has the King of Qin ever realized that any of the decrees that Lu Buwei wants to implement are in conflict with the interests of the Right Prime Minister, Lord Changping, and the others?”
Wang Ling said to Ying Zheng with a playful look.
At the same time, he could not help but sigh in his heart.
"This Marquis Wenxin is indeed a cunning old man.”
Because the answer to his question was none!
