Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 87 Shy Jingwei

"No gift."

Xu Lin waved his hand.

Then he looked at Li Si.

Li Si was wearing a dark blue robe, no different from most young scholars.

"Why did you come to see me?"

After a brief pause, Xu Lin asked.

“A good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good minister chooses his master to do his work.”

"I would like to serve Mr. Xu..."

Li Si said seriously.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Lin.

"I don't lack people."

"But if you have real talent and knowledge, I can help you."

Xu Lin said seriously.

Because of what Li Si did after Ying Zheng's death in history, his impression of Li Si can only be described as acceptable, not very good, and only slightly better than Zhao Gao.

In Xu Lin's opinion, whether it is Zhao Gao or Li Si, they should be used when they are virtuous and dismissed when they are not!
If Li Si had not performed well when Ying Zheng was alive in history, he would never have met Li Si.

"Thank you sir!"

Li Si was very grateful for this.

He had found the right person!

"I heard that you studied under the great Confucian Xunzi?"

Xu Lin asked casually.

"Yes."

Li Si nodded.

He wanted to say that he was one of the most outstanding students taught by Xunzi, but before he came, he heard that Xu Lin did not like to hear flattery, so he did not dare to say it.

"What do you think of my Great Qin's eastward march?"

Xu Lin asked.

It was getting late and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with Li Si. If Li Si could answer this question well, he would recommend Li Si to Ying Zheng after a while. If he couldn't answer it well, Li Si could get out.

"The King of Qin has continued to exert the valor of his six predecessors. I believe that the Qin State is on the verge of unification. It is only a matter of time before it unifies the world."

Upon hearing this, Li Si immediately perked up and replied in a deep voice.

He answered very cautiously, looking at Xu Lin's expression as he spoke, afraid of saying the wrong thing.

Lu Buwei is dead. If Xu Lin is unwilling to recommend him, his life will be over!
The six states in Shandong are all ruled by incompetent rulers now. He doesn't want to join Han and join Han Fei, even though he knows it is impossible!
Xu Lin showed satisfaction and asked Li Si to continue.

"The King of Qin is diligent in his work, and he is clear about rewards and punishments. With the support of the Master, I believe that in ten years at most, the six states of Shandong will all become counties under the rule of the Qin Empire."

Li Si continued.

Xu Lin nodded and let Li Si continue.

Li Si frowned when he saw this. What did Xu Lin want to hear?

He wanted to know how I would assist the King of Qin in unifying the world if I were the Prime Minister?
Thinking of this, Li Si coughed twice and raised his hand to point at South Korea.

"I believe that if we want to achieve twice the result with half the effort in going east, we can make friends with those far away and attack those nearby, going from weak to strong."

"For example, we can first destroy Han and Zhao. Han has only a hundred thousand soldiers, while Qin has a million soldiers. Destroying Han is as easy as taking something out of a bag."

"Zhao was once powerful, but that was in the past. Now the King of Zhao is incompetent and favors treacherous ministers. All it takes is money to sow discord in the Zhao court. Within a year, Zhao will be destroyed!"

"..."

Li Si said in a deep voice.

He spoke eloquently and with high spirits.

"As expected of Master Xun's disciple, you said it well."

"Stay in Xianyang first. I will recommend you to the king in a few days!"

After listening, Xu Lin clapped his hands in praise.

"Thank you, sir!"

"I will never forget your kindness, sir!"

Li Si bowed and expressed his gratitude.

Then he turned around and left.

He had only taken a few steps when Xu Lin called him.

"Wait a moment!"

Xu Lin spoke.

Li Si was stunned when he heard this, then stopped and looked back at Xu Lin.

"I heard you have a senior brother named Han Fei?"

Xu Lin asked.

"Yes."

"My senior brother Han Fei is the ninth prince of the Kingdom of Han." Li Si told the truth.

"How does your talent and learning compare to his?"

Xu Lin asked.

"A ruler is long, an inch is short."

"In terms of writing books, I am slightly inferior to my senior brother."

"But when it comes to assisting in government, I believe I am no less than my senior brother!"

Li Si answered while thinking.

Xunzi once said that he was not as good as Han Fei in all aspects, but how could he admit that he was not as good as Han Fei in front of Xu Lin?

"If you two were officials in the same court, would you tolerate him?"

Xu Lin asked, shaking the tea bowl in his hand.

"Of course!"

"I am not a petty person!"

Li Si said without hesitation.

"So best."

Xu Lin nodded.

Then he waved his sleeves and let Li Si go.

In history, Han Fei seemed to have died because of Li Si. Having lived two lives, he did not want the historical tragedy to repeat itself!

After leaving Xu's house, Li Si did not take a car to the inn, but chose to walk to the inn.

Why did Mr. Xu suddenly ask about his senior brother Han Fei?

And asked me if I could accommodate him?
My senior brother is a prince of the Kingdom of Han. Can he still serve as an official in Qin?

If Han Fei really entered Qin as an official, he would definitely be suppressed by Han Fei. By then, let alone becoming the prime minister, it would be a question whether he could become one of the Nine Ministers!

There are two reasons why he just answered "can accommodate Han Fei".

First, he wanted to leave a good impression on Xu Lin.

Second, he felt that it was impossible for Han Fei to enter Qin and serve as an official with him.

Thinking of this, Li Si looked towards South Korea.

I hope my senior brother will not become an official in Qin, otherwise he and Han Fei will eventually have a fight!
……

the other side.

After washing up, Xu Lin did not go back to his room to rest, but went to Jingwei's room.

After Cherry was born, Jingwei was afraid of disturbing Xu Lin, so he chose to sleep in a separate room from Xu Lin.

Cherry was sleeping soundly in the cart.

Jingwei was lying flat on the couch and had fallen asleep.

Although Yingtao is very well-behaved, Jingwei is a mother for the first time after all, so she is still very tired recently.

Soon, the distance between Xu Lin and Jingwei was reduced to just one finger.

The rich and mellow aroma made Xu Lin's mouth water.

"lady?"

Xu Lin called softly.

Jingniu successfully escaped from the trap. After Lu Buwei was killed, Jingniu completely let down her guard, so even though Xu Lin was very close to her, she still didn't notice him.

Of course, this is also related to Xu Lin’s extremely high level of cultivation. If he were an ordinary person, he would have been discovered by Jingwei before even entering the room!

Seeing that Jingwei was slow to answer, Xu Lin rolled up her off-white nightgown and began to taste it.

Jingwei woke up instantly, picked up the long sword on the windowsill with lightning speed, and pointed it at the person in front of him.

Just when Jingwei was about to take action, she was surprised to find that the person in front of her was her husband Xu Lin.

"Why you, my husband?"

Jing Salamander said.

After saying this, she put the sword back on the windowsill.

She wondered how the other party could succeed in the "sneak attack". It turned out that the person was Xu Lin!
"Why can't it be me?"

Xu Lin smiled calmly and asked back.

After saying that, he told Jingwei to continue sleeping and not to worry about him, as he was just a little hungry.

Seeing Xu Lin wanted to have another 'taste', Jingwei instinctively wanted to refuse, but Xu Lin insisted on eating it and she couldn't refuse!

"Husband, please be gentle."

"Don't wake Cherry."

After a cup of tea, Jingwei pursed his thin lips and advised softly.

The bright moonlight shone through the paper window onto her, making her too embarrassed to look at Xu Lin.

In order to divert her attention, she turned her head and looked at the sleeping Cherry.

Fortunately, Cherry fell asleep, otherwise if she saw it, she would be so embarrassed!
Although Xu Lin was not serious before, he was not so "perverted". Xu Lin's recent requests are getting more and more outrageous!
There are many things that Jingwei has never even heard of before!

If Xu Lin hadn't said that, she probably would never have thought that this was possible until her death!
