"After this battle, my Qin country will no longer be invincible. It is only a matter of time before Your Majesty unites the world.”
"After this battle, my Qin country will no longer be invincible. It is only a matter of time before Your Majesty unites the world.”
……
Seeing Li Si take the lead, the rest of the officials stood up and said in unison.
Listening to their words, it seemed like they were flattering him.
But looking at their respectful expressions, he knew that they were speaking from the bottom of their hearts.
"Have the three generals Wang He, Meng Ao, and Wang Jian returned?”
Ying Zheng did not pay any attention to the officials in the palace. After everyone bowed and returned to their original positions, Ying Zheng asked again,"
"Your Majesty, not yet."
"However, an important person has already been escorted back by Li Xin.”
Imperial Censor Li Si replied.
"Who is it?"
Ying Zheng asked curiously.
Han Fei."
Li Si replied.
Han Fei, the nine sons of King Han?"
Ying Zheng was puzzled.
"Yes, that's right."
Li Si nodded.
"It was this person who mixed in with Qihe's team and took the opportunity to leave the city. Then, he went to the Qi and Chu countries and persuaded them to mobilize 500,000 Qi and Chu allied forces to attack our Qin country. He wanted to use the strategy of besieging Wei to save Zhao to save Yan, Han, and Zhao?”
Ying Zheng was curious.
"Yes, Your Majesty. It is Han Fei, the ninth son of King Han.”
Li Si nodded.
"Why was he captured by my Qin army?”
Ying Zheng was curious.
"Your Majesty, you may not know this, but when Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu State, led the 500,000-strong coalition army to Xianyang, Han Fei was also in Xiang Yan's army.”
"The Qi and Chu allied army was surrounded by our Qin army. That Chu general, Xiang Yan, died under the arrows.”
" Han Fei jumped into a pit and escaped the rain of arrows. He was lucky enough to survive.”
Feng Quji explained.
"Li Si, I remember that you once said that Han Fei and you are brothers and that he once studied under Xunzi, the Confucian grandmaster. How do you think I should deal with Han Fei?”
Ying Zheng asked Li Si.
"Your Majesty, Han Fei is an enemy. Your Majesty will decide how to deal with Han Fei.”
However, Li Si was startled by Ying Zheng's words, and he hurriedly declined.
"In that case, let me meet Han Fei.”
Ying Zheng suddenly said.
Hearing Ying Zheng's order, a eunuch soon summoned Li Xin, who was escorting Han Fei back to Xianyang, and brought Han Fei into Zhangtai Palace.
"Your humble subject Li Xin greets Your Majesty."
Sinful Han Fei greets Your Majesty."
Then, Li Xin, a young but capable general in silver armor, and Han Fei, whose purple robe was covered in mud and whose right arm had been shot by an arrow, walked in from outside the palace and bowed to Ying Zheng.
"Li Xin, I've already heard that you've lured the enemy this time, so I'll reward you handsomely in the future.”
Looking at Li Xin, who was standing below and bowing to him, Ying Zheng smiled.
The older generation of Qin generals were already old, and they might fall ill and not be able to stand up on that day.
Therefore, Ying Zheng began to consciously train the younger generation of generals in Qin State.
And this Li Xin was also a famous general of the Qin State, so he was naturally among the ranks of those who Ying Zheng was grooming.
It was because of this that he would protect Li Xin to lead the army under the circumstances of Prime Minister Wang Wan's opposition.
Now it seemed that Li Xin didn't disappoint him.
She didn't embarrass him.
"Your Majesty must be joking. Li Xin should thank Your Majesty for trusting him and giving him the opportunity to lead the army.”
Li Xin was extremely touched.
He had heard about it.
Letting him, a general who had only served as a 200 - 500 Lord, lead the army this time was His Majesty's suggestion.
Prime Minister Wang Wan saw that he was too young and did not agree. It was only because of the Emperor's protection that he successfully became the leader.
It was precisely because of the Emperor's trust that he was moved. He also understood that this was his only chance to be promoted to a general.
Li Xin was afraid that he was too young and impulsive, ruining the Emperor's plans and missing this opportunity. Thus, he constantly reminded himself.
Fortunately, nothing went wrong along the way.
"Alright, your reward will be given to Wang He, Meng Ao, and Wang Jian when they return.”
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.
Although he was the one who had discovered Li Xin, he also knew that if the Emperor wanted his subjects to be loyal, he needed to reward them and use qualified methods.
Rewards and punishments were clear. This was the so-called combination of kindness and intimidation.
Han Fei?"
Then, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Han Fei.
Looking at the injured youth in front of him, it was hard to believe that he was Han Wangan's ninth son.
"Yes, sinners."
Seeing that Ying Zheng finally looked at him, Han Fei, who was secretly sizing up Ying Zheng, replied with a bitter smile.
Ying Zheng's appearance was exactly what he had imagined.
He wore a king's robe, a crown on his head, and a sword hanging from his waist. He was a young king.
He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and his aura was awe-inspiring. Standing in the hall, it was as if he had become the center of the world.
Compared to his old and muddle-headed father, Han Wangan, who only knew how to show off his anger and look, how much stronger was he?
"I heard that you and Li Si studied together under the Confucian Grandmaster Xun Zi.”
Ying Zheng asked again.
"How can Han Fei be compared to Lord Li Si, the Imperial Censor of the State of Qin? But Han Fei and Lord Li Si indeed studied under our teacher and were considered fellow disciples.”
Han Fei replied.
Han Fei, do you want to live?"
A hint of a smile flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes.
Han Fei was one of the Seven Sons of the Pre-Qin Dynasty. He was as famous as Confucius, Mencius, and Xunzi of Confucianism, Mozi of Mohism, and Laozi and Zhuangzi of Taoism.
He was also the only representative of Legalism who had reached the pinnacle of Legalism.
If Han Feizi could join Great Qin, his future achievements and contributions to Great Qin would be even greater than Li Si's.
"Your Majesty, do you want the sinners to pledge their loyalty to the Qin country?”
Han Feizi instantly understood what Ying Zheng meant.
"Not bad, what do you think?"
Ying Zheng stared at Han Fei domineeringly, and endless pressure fell on Han Fei.
