Chapter 323: That slave? ! (44)

heard.

"Li? Qin Ting didn't target officials very much, right?"

"This time we took action because of local officials' collusion with me and others." He Yao looked puzzled.

Zhang Liang shook his head.

He lightly slapped the palm of his left hand with his right hand and said in a solemn voice: "And this is the problem. Our attention is focused on these, so that we are distracted."

"'Li' is the foundation!"

"It can even be said that all the measures taken by Qin Ting in the past two years have been based on 'officials'."

"In the eyes of Qin Ting, or in the eyes of the First Emperor, or in the eyes of the people who laid out the plan, the key to Qin's solution to the world's predicament lies in this 'official'."

"The most important thing in the Qin system is also the 'officials'."

"It's just that for a long time, we have habitually believed that the most important people in the world are the 'officials', or the 'people' who have the loudest voice, and some scholars from hundreds of schools of thought think that the 'scholars' are the most important."

"But this is just wishful thinking on our part."

"Since the founding of Qin, it has sought innovation and change in everything, and its behavior cannot be based on the past. In the past, the scholar-officials had the greatest influence on the world, and they could even be said to share the world with the scholar-officials."

"Scholar-bureaucrats are officials."

"However, since the beginning of Shang Yang in the Qin Dynasty, the status of scholar-bureaucrats has been declining."

"The status of officials is constantly improving."

"Although there are still obvious hierarchies between the two, the officials are the foundation of Qin's system and the hands and feet that Qin uses to control the world."

"The Dharma is the formula of the world and the instrument of all things."

"Officials hang their lives on the people's shoulders."

"Guanzi has clarified this truth long ago."

"In the eyes of reformers like Guan Zi, 'officials' have always been more important than 'officials'. As long as the problem of 'officials' is solved, many problems that arise in the Qin system will no longer be a problem."

"This is determined by the system."

"This is also the solution Qin Ting gave to the world."

"Of course"

Zhang Liang paused for a moment, sighed, and said helplessly: "Qin Ting is different from the past after all. In the past, Qin Ting acted overbearingly and did not consider other things at all, but now Qin Ting is more cautious in doing things, and even a little treacherous." Well, this time the targeting of 'officials' was never revealed from beginning to end."

"Always thinking about other things."

"Using all kinds of things to confuse the public, starting from the idea of ​​'repairing human affairs to win over heaven' that caused controversy among the people at the beginning, and later finding out that local officials were colluding with me and other nobles, we started to clean up and rectify the administration, everything It can be said that it was a big deal, and it was well-known to everyone, so that almost everyone in the world was affected by it."

"Then he was completely unaware of Qin Ting's true purpose."

"Suppressing the world is just a facade."

"The core is 'official'!"

"We actually reacted long ago."

Zhang Liang couldn't help but sigh.

He was now filled with annoyance and unwillingness.

They all played tricks on Qin Ting and led him by the nose.

If he could react earlier, he wouldn't be so passive at all, and he should have seen through it earlier.

Qin Ting has done too many things over the years and cannot spare much energy to take care of too many things. Therefore, he can only focus on one thing. The 'non-commissioned officer transfer' proposed by Fusu before has already revealed some information, but they didn't pay much attention to it, and they didn't pay much attention to the so-called lowering of admission standards.

Now want to come.

I really regret it.

Isn't all this paving the way for the selection of officials?

Qin Ting has already made it so obvious, but they are all unaware of it. It is really ridiculous.

Zhang Liang was also very angry.

He Yao opened his mouth, but was speechless.

In fact, he still didn't understand it, but seeing Zhang Liang so upset, he also knew that the matter was more serious than he imagined. But could Qin Ting really be so comprehensive and cover up the truth?
He Yao said: "Brother Zifang, could it be that you are too worried?"

"Qin Ting shouldn't be so good at calculating, right?"

Zhang Liang shook his head and said coldly: "It is this understanding that has misled us."

"The planners also view us this way."

"They just made up their minds. We won't think too much or too deeply, so we dare to do this. Qin Ting changed his previous attitude, and his goals began to become clear and targeted. Not only did we not expect And, I’m afraid many officials in the Qin court are not aware of it.”

"We're just fooled by our instincts."

immediately.

Zhang Liang sighed.

Even if he doesn't realize it, let alone the rest of the world?

I'm afraid many people simply don't realize it.

They may have thought that Qin Ting was so arrogant because he was very confident in himself in order to frighten the nobles so that they could implement the so-called 'cultivation of human affairs to defeat nature'. But if they really viewed Qin Ting this way, it would be a big mistake. These are always just cover-ups, a cover-up, in order to prevent the people of the world from noticing Qin Ting's adjustments to the administration of officials, and thus avoid being interrupted and destroyed midway.

At present, Qin Ting's goal has been achieved.

Everyone was stunned by Qin Ting's series of moves.

No time for distraction.

By the time they react, it will be too late.

Zhang Liang's hands and feet were cold.

He only felt that his eyes were a little dim, and his breathing became a little rapid, even a little out of breath. Since Bolangsha, he has been studying diligently and trying to use other methods to destroy Qin.

He is confident in his intelligence.

Although I dare not boast that I can do everything possible, I will definitely not make any weird mistakes.

However, in the past two years, he made mistakes again and again.

He was very puzzled.

Not sure where I went wrong.

He clearly did nothing wrong and tried his best in everything. However, he seemed to be playing one-sided tricks and could not achieve his goal at all. Even if he made some hasty decisions later, he would end up misleading others and himself.

This made Zhang Liang a little confused.

His first reaction was that he had too little information and received the news too slowly. However, as soon as this idea passed through his mind, Zhang Liang immediately rejected it.

This is no excuse.

No matter how late the news was, it was impossible for such a big mistake to occur.

And it was like this in the past, but why has there ever been such a big mistake?So it's not a matter of how fast the news is, but that he doesn't have enough depth to sort through the news.

aside.

He Yao frowned.

When traveling with Zhang Liang, he took Zhang Liang as his main priority.

And he had known Zhang Liang for many years, and it was rare to see Zhang Liang so panicked. For a moment, He Yao also became a little uneasy. He said uneasily: "According to Brother Zifang, Qin Ting has a secret plan? Then? Now that Brother Zifang has seen it, is there any way to deal with it? We can't just let Qin Ting's treacherous plan succeed, right?"

Zhang Liang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He was not ready to make any more moves.

Zhang Liang sighed softly: "Brother He, you should have realized it by now. Qin Ting is deliberately avoiding us. He doesn't want us scholars to get involved, and he won't let us have the opportunity to cause damage. Right now People in Jiangdong are in panic, Yunmeng and Wu Yue are the hiding places for nobles like us, and now they are all in panic. Under this situation, how can we disrupt the arrangements of the Qin court?"

"All of this is part of Qin Ting's plan."

"We were calculated from the beginning."

"In addition, we misjudged the situation and fell into the whirlpool step by step. At the moment, just me and a few others can't change anything at all, it will only make things worse. Qin Ting's calculation this time is very shrewd. .”

"He is not scheming against us, he is scheming against local officials." Qin Ting guessed that local officials only wanted to bet on both sides and did not really want to fall to one side. He also guessed that the nobles were arrogant, so local officials would not risk their own wealth and life. The bet was on the nobles, so under these intimidations and threats, these officials panicked, and in panic, they surrendered the nobles of Chu."

"From now on."

"It's not up to us."

"They all fell into the trap set by Qin Ting."

"In this situation, we are no longer in a position to do anything but watch."

Zhang Liang has calmed down.

Now Qin Ting's layout has been completed.

If you get involved again, it won't help, it will only expose yourself.

And it can’t be stopped.

One step slower.

Slow down.

In the end I could only watch.

This is their current helplessness.

He Yuan was silent.

He felt a burst of anger in his heart.

They have clearly been trying to disrupt the situation, but in the past two years they have become increasingly powerless. They seem to be so scheming that they cannot move at all. If they make any move, they will be targeted more severely. This feeling of powerlessness makes He Yao was at a loss.

Zhang Liang clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the towering Kuaiji Mountain.

There are mixed feelings in my heart.

Unable to enter.

From beginning to end, he was just a spectator.

He had not experienced this feeling of powerlessness for a long time.

He even had a feeling that someone was deliberately targeting him, and someone was deliberately wary of him, just not wanting him to interfere. The other party just wanted to complete everything steadily.

This feeling is actually ridiculous.

But very real.

But there are really people in the world who would plot against themselves?
Zhang Liang doesn't know.

But his eyes were a little lonely.

In the past two years, he has always felt that he was a little too passive, but after reviewing the current situation, he could only choose to hold back. The few times he took action, he easily resolved it for the other party. This overwhelming encirclement and suppression, It made Zhang Liang very depressed.

He felt like an outsider.

Free from the world.

Zhang Liang withdrew his gaze and sat directly on the ground.

Letting the wind around him blow his hair, he looked calm and thought carefully in his mind.

At that time, Qin's plan to unify the world came from Wei Liao's hand.

even.

The reason why Qin was able to unify the world so smoothly had a lot to do with Wei Liao. Wei Liao helped him back then, but what about this time?Who was behind Qin Ting's detailed layout and planning?

Lis?

Zhang Liang shook his head.

Li Si was a Legalist who was good at general affairs and poor at detailed layout.

Feng Quji?
Zhang Liang shook his head again.

Meng Tian?Weak?Yao Jia?Shi Lu?
The names of important officials of the imperial court appeared in Zhang Liang's mind.

But he denied them all.

If these people could really be so meticulous, they would have taken action long ago. They would never have waited until Qin was seriously ill before taking action. The only possibility was Shi Lu, but this person was previously the supervisor of Lingqu, and his job was to investigate It is definitely unrealistic that the matter of corrupt supervisors suddenly spans so much.

After some thought.

Zhang Liang's firm veto came from the courtiers.

Subsequently.

He thought of Fusu.

All the changes in the world in recent years seem to have started with Fusu.

But Fusu obviously did not have this talent, and those who were close to Fusu could make suggestions that the First Emperor would accept.

It can only be the new Zongzheng.

But if this Zongzheng really had such ability, would he really have been buried for so long?Moreover, he is still a member of the royal family, and the reason is the same as other important officials. If this person is really so talented, how can he wait until the situation in Qin State deteriorates before taking action?

This doesn't make sense.

It’s just that he’s not a courtier, nor a member of the royal family, so who could it be?
Zhang Liang was at a loss for a while.

But now he was determined to figure it out.

Otherwise, you will feel upset.

We don’t know who is plotting secretly, so how can we break the situation?

Zhang Liang sat quietly on the stone and thought for most of an hour. He almost thought about all the courtiers he knew, but he still could not find the corresponding person. This made Zhang Liang feel deeply depressed and puzzled.

Because it can’t be what the First Emperor thought of himself, right?
If the First Emperor really had such ability, how could he have ordered Wei Liao to be placed under house arrest?
Just when Zhang Liang had no idea, something suddenly came to his mind, something he had heard earlier but did not take it to heart. On their way to Kuaiji County, they overheard something from News from Xianyang.

Some officials in Xianyang are targeting a slave!
When he heard the news, he thought it was a bit absurd. Would an important official of the imperial court attack a slave?
Even if this slave is very close to Fusu.

But after all, the status is very different.

However, when he thought about it carefully now, he realized that something was wrong. Would court officials really target an ordinary and unknown slave?And can this slave really be on good terms with Fusu?Can he even become a confidant of Fusu?
Thinking of this.

Zhang Liang began to think carefully.

He thought about all the rumors related to this slave.

finally.

Zhang Liang opened his eyes.

There was a gleam in his eyes.

This person has a problem.

And there are big problems.

A slave has no chance to get to know Fusu, let alone give advice to Fusu. Moreover, this person seems to be the one who leads Fusu to implement the 'Guan Shan Hai'. Can such a resourceful person really be a slave?
After Zhang Liang thought through the series of measures for "Guan Shan Hai".

This person was completely identified.

This slave's behavior is actually consistent with Da Qin's behavior in the past two years.

It is to overwhelm people with power.

Consider everything, take every step step by step, and don’t reveal any flaws.

This requires strong control.

He also has an extremely clear judgment on the direction of the world.

And this really came from a slave.
Or was it the work of a man disguised as a slave?

Zhang Liang was a little unsure.

It's just that he has thought about all the officials of Qin Ting, big and small, and only this person is the most likely, and all the unreasonable things are reasonable. The officials of Qin Ting will not target him without reason, there must be something. Other secrets.

This person is more than just a slave.
