Deep in Changling is the imperial palace.

No wonder those who have truly seen the vast world and unlimited scenery despise many powerful people in Changling like frogs in a well. In the past few decades, the Qin Dynasty, which was in Changling's population, has not taken much advantage in the struggle with various dynasties. Not to mention the fact that there is no more territory to open up, but instead suffered some defeats and even several wealthy counties lost, which brought peace over the years.

Today, the iron-armored giant ship of Jiaodong County entered the Weihe Port. Zheng Xiu and Jiaodong County clans entered the sight of the world in this way, which is actually the increasingly important result of Jiaodong County for the entire Qin Dynasty.

The dried fish in Jiaodong County that exudes the unpleasant taste of these powerful people not only became the main source of meat for most of the troops in the Qin territory, but even the salt was naturally supplemented.

Many local generals actually felt inexplicably grateful for this. Compared with cheap and effective food, they could use more military pay in other places, such as arrows.

Jiaodong County has unparalleled geographical and natural production. Even though the powerful people in Changling hold military power and make many harsh and difficult things, the more this happens, the more the family members in Jiaodong County share the same hatred for the enemy. The iron barrel is together, so that the powerful people in Changling cannot interfere in their business in Jiaodong County.

The rise of Jiaodong County clans is actually no different from the rise of Guanzhong clans.

But the difference is that Guanzhong is in the blessed land of the Great Qin Dynasty, with 800 miles of plains. Countless wealth is consumed in the war round after round. After generations of accumulation, many nephews of the clan who were like tigers and wolfs at that time have become high and powerful people in the court, and they are completely different from their ancestors.

....

The emperor's bedroom was filled with the smell of fresh medicine.

Candles made of blubber produced from Jiaodong County are burning, with spices from overseas islands added, and even the smoke emits a fragrance of calm.

The cool air from the ice cellar slowly rose from the mouth of the copper crane. The huge red curtain hung from the top of the palace to the ground, just like the sunset in the sky being picked one by one and then piled up here.

The emperors of the Great Qin Dynasty were old and had been ill for several years, and the severe disease was difficult to cure.

He needs the temperature in the palace to be suitable, and he also needs some festive colors to make his face look more vivid and make people feel that he can hold on for longer.

Ying Wu respectfully walked through these red curtains and looked at the emperor who had already taken off his human form on the bed in front of him. Looking at the bright red but still unconcealed sallow and gray decay, he naturally thought of the yellow leaves on the branches that were completely yellow with mold spots, and his nose was sour.

This is a father and son meeting every day. There are no one else in the huge bedroom, but Ying Wu still held the courtesy seriously. After giving greetings, he took a few steps forward and arrived in front of the bed.

"What are you waiting for?"

The emperor on the bed asked Ying Wu softly.

Perhaps he had to use the little energy and vitality left to support himself for longer, so even if he spoke, he was very depressed and even had no extra expression on his face.

Ying Wu was slightly stunned. He didn't understand the meaning of his father's words.

"Are you surprised? Why at this time, I have not issued an order to pass the throne to you?" The emperor's voice on the bed continued to sound.

Ying Wu lowered his head, but he still didn't say anything.

"Any will be a piece of paper, and as long as I die, any will will be changed."

The old emperor said lightly and slightly sarcastically: "Any decree about the inheritance of the throne to you will cause drastic changes, and at this time the Qin Dynasty could not withstand such drastic changes."

"My son understand." General Ying's head lowered.

"So there will be no such will, and there will be no ruins. If you cannot master absolute power before I die, I will not follow my inner thoughts, but will succumb to reality and pass the throne to Cheng Jiao."

The emperor then said slowly: "No matter how unwilling you are, this is a means to preserve the Qin Dynasty and yourself."

Ying Wu nodded again and said, "My son understand."

"I heard that the daughter of the Zheng family of Jiaodong County arrived in Changling today."

"yes."

Ying Wu was not surprised. He knew that even though the other party was on the bed, he was still looking at the entire Changling and the entire world.

"I have never been to Jiaodong County, but I know what the scene is."

The emperor said: "Even the decorations in my palace, in terms of luxury and magnificence, cannot be compared with those family mansions. You should understand that what they have is not only accumulating a hundred years of wealth, but also ambition."

Ying Wu remained silent and said nothing.

This is how they talk a lot, and they need to listen and learn more.

"Everything is a double-edged sword, and so are their ambitions."

The emperor was also very satisfied with his attitude. He then slowly said: "In a fixed territory, they cannot get greater benefits, and others do not need them to intervene... But you are different. You will be considered to give them more benefits because you need more help than others, but you must be very clear in your heart that what they really need is not that they already have a lot of wealth, but that they can surpass those who have been above them and even bullied them for many years."

Ying Wu lowered his head respectfully and listened.

This is actually what he has figured out.

Looking at his posture, the emperor on the bed had a look of satisfaction flashed in his dim eyes.

"To obtain, you must also know how to give up."

The emperor rested for a while before he had the strength to say what he wanted to say most, "Your biggest weapon now is not the support of those who are loyal to me. The power of those people is too fragile and not worth relying on than a stronger force. Your biggest weapon is the sympathy of many people. What you should use the most is the sympathy of these people."

...

"Why are you unwilling to learn swordsmanship?"

"You are obviously the most talented student I have ever seen, so why don't you learn swords well?"

Deep in Changling, there are countless mansions of powerful people.

Deep in the most magnificent mansion, several angry voices sounded.

"I didn't expect...you could see it."

A soft and pretty female voice, who was just as guilty as she did, started to hear, "Sir, you seem to be much better than the teachers before, but..."

"But what!"
