The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 69: Keep a low profile and bide your time

Chapter 69: Keep a low profile and bide your time
Ying Zheng has now moved into the Prince's Palace, and Zhao Ji has also moved into the North Palace.

Ying Zheng has been enjoying great success recently, but he knows that too much is as bad as too little, so he keeps a very low profile.

He just went to see Zhao Ji often to accompany her, and never went out again.

Today, Zhao Ji was playing mahjong. Ying Zheng had just returned from there. He enjoyed the long-lost silence in the palace. Now he sat by the window alone, tapping the window sill with one hand and singing "Crane's Cry" softly:
Cranes are calling in the Nine Gaos, and their voices are heard in the wild. Fish are hiding in the deep, or on the islets. In the garden of Le Bi, there is a sandalwood tree, and under it there are vines. Stones from other mountains can be used for mosaics.

Cranes cry in the Nine Gaos, and their voices are heard in the sky. Fish swim on the islets, or hide in the deep. In the garden of the pleasure, there is a sandalwood tree, under which there grows grains. Stones from other mountains can be used to carve jade.

He secretly thought it was a pity: "Now I am in mourning for my grandfather and cannot listen to music. Such a peaceful day is rare. It would be nice if there were a beautiful woman playing the piano or flute, dancing and making music beside me."

Today, the "Book of Music" has not been lost. The "Book of Music" and the "Book of Songs" complement each other. When coupled with the dance of beautiful women, it is so pleasant to think about.

Although Ying Zheng has not been out recently, through Yan Jin, he is well aware of the recent turmoil in Xianyang City.

This had been his plan. He would build up momentum and create expectation over the past year so that he could become famous overnight. Now he just had to wait for a year.

Since Ying Zheng became the crown prince, the identities of Yan Jin, Chang Lu, Qingqin and others have become very different.

Ying Zheng even ordered Yan Jin to select good family men from the army to establish the Prince's Guard, which was actually a preparation for the establishment of an institution similar to the Jinyiwei in the future.

The great cause of morality must be occupied, and the banner of morality is of great use, but there are always people who lack morality, or the emperor does not want to have morality.

It would be inappropriate to ask the court officials to do things at this time, as it would be too disgraceful. The Jinyiwei were the good knives that made the emperor look decent.

Yan Jin has followed Ying Zheng for many years, his loyalty is unquestionable, and his abilities are also good, so he can be trained and cultivated.

Mainly absolute loyalty.

The Qin prince Chu did not stop Ying Zheng from building up his power, but instead strongly supported him.

A king in his prime and strong is always extremely tolerant and confident towards the successor he is satisfied with.

Of course, this may not be the case in old age. This is the instinct and basic quality of a king.

Now all the heroes in the world have gathered in Xianyang City, and King Chu of Qin is also very happy. He has all the talents for governing the world in his pocket. In previous years, most scholars in the world looked down on the Western Qin State, but now they no longer have the arrogance and are all flocking to it.

Unfortunately, according to Yan Jin, no one came who was the doctor that Ying Zheng was most looking forward to. Ying Zheng remembered very clearly that his father only had three years left to live. If it was just the royal physician, he might not be reliable. As a son, he naturally hoped that his father could live a few more years, even if he succeeded to the throne a few years later.

Unfortunately, more than a hundred years ago, Luowang's people were commissioned by Qin's imperial physician Li Xi to kill the great medical master Bian Que, thus forming a deep hatred with the medical family. Although Li Xi was later executed for his poor treatment of King Wu and the killing of Bian Que, the direct descendants of the medical family were unwilling to come to Qin again since then.

It is really embarrassing to say that Duanmu Rong admires Master Bian Que the most.

According to the time, there is no Duanmu Rong yet. Now there should be only the medical master Nian Duan, who is probably not too old. We can only find a way to invite Nian Duan to Qin. However, his apprentice Duanmu Rong admires Bian Que the most, so it is very likely that she will receive Nian Duan's teachings.

Ying Zheng has made up his mind. He uses the moral justice and moral blackmail to invite Nian Duan to Qin State, and Duanmu Rong in the future. I want them all.

Although my cultivation is now high enough to shock the world, there are many incurable diseases in the world. I don’t want to die young and the important people around me will also be killed.

No matter how powerful one's martial arts skills are, one can still get sick. A Super Saiyan can even get a viral heart disease. Anyway, Ying Zheng now thinks that he is not as powerful as a Super Saiyan.

Moreover, Nian Duan, a female medical master, will be of great use at the Xianyang Academy Academic Conference a year later, so she must be recruited.

Nian Duan has always been a recluse, and he is most likely still in Jinghu Medical Village. Ying Zheng inferred that Jinghu should be in the Taihu Lake area within the territory of Chu State.

Ying Zheng has ordered Yanri to send people to look for her. When they find her, they are not to disturb her. Then he will send Yan Jin to invite her in person.

The personal letter has already been written, so there is no need to worry that she will not come. There are many ways to make her come. I have nine ways, nine!
Now, there is no need to rush for those people from the hundreds of families who want to see you. Let the bullets fly for a while. The expected effect takes time.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng clapped his hands and sang:

I am like a swan, with my heart set on the world, my ambitions high, soaring across the sky;
For example, a dragon eagle, commanding the wind and clouds, swallowing up the mountains and rivers, and singing to determine the fate of the world;
The wind is rising and the clouds are surging, my heart is following the waves, I am unstoppable and my power is as great as the sky;

"My achievements will last for thousands of years, and my name will be known through the ages. I will never waver in my determination to achieve my imperial cause."

At this moment, Yan Jin asked to see him, and Ying Zheng asked him in with a smile, "Yan Qing, what's the matter?"

Yan Jin bowed and said, "Your Highness, I have selected the best from the Imperial Guards as per your instructions. We have selected more than a hundred people so far. However, I am confused. These elite soldiers are great at fighting in battles, but they are not good choices for fighting in the martial arts world or assassination. It is already past the best time to train them."

"Your Highness, please tell me what I should do?"

Ying Zheng had known that this day would come. They were so used to being ghostly killers that they were like rats in the gutter. It was impossible for them to do anything honorable.

It still needs to be trained. In the future, this organization will be the emperor's most important confidant and weapon. It must not only use those ghostly tricks, but also learn to do things honestly.

Ying Zheng had already made preparations.

Asked: "How did you train and recruit new members in Luowang before?"

"Your Highness, Luowang mainly recruits desperate prisoners and wandering swordsmen, and then trains them to become deadly, cold-blooded, and absolutely obedient assassins. The names of the members of Luowang will be forgotten. Low-level members are only named by numbers, and high-level members will have individual names. Only the first-class killers are named after famous swords."

"After becoming a top-ranked assassin, your past name is no longer important. You will be awarded a world-famous sword, and from then on you will be known by the sword's name. The greatest pursuit of a Luowang assassin is to obtain a famous sword. This is the greatest honor."

Ying Zheng chuckled and said, "Yan Jin, if I grant you a name after I ascend the throne, do you want the sword to be your name, or the name I grant you?"

Yan Jin immediately knelt down, extremely excited, and bowed with great ceremony: "If I am lucky enough to be given a name by the Lord, I will naturally be proud of it! All my descendants will be proud of it for generations to come!"

"Wake up, that day will come."

Yan Jin stood up and said, "I thank you for your kindness, my lord. I will not refuse even if I die."

 Thanks to @始皇*天下 for your support
