Win the government
The relationship between Ying Zheng and Lü Buwei has gone through about three stages, early dependence, medium-term questioning, and late disgust.
Why is this change occurring? With Lü Buwei's thorough handling of affairs and the meticulous and detailed consideration of problems, could he not have imagined these things and could not see the changes? The main intention is still in the identity and character of Yingzheng himself. Yingzheng dominated the change in this relationship.
There is a basis for the strange goods to live: the father of the infidel, An Guojun, was made the crown prince, and the aliens had a chance
Lü Buwei was a businessman in the early days, often running between Handan and Xianyang to do business, by chance, he met Yiren, at this time Lü Buwei was only 27 years old, and Yiren, that is, Qin Shi Huang's father, was only 16 years old. Perhaps as early as a few years ago, Lü Buwei knew the stranger, and he also knew that he was a hostage of the Qin state, and his exact identity was a prince of the Qin state, but only when the father of the stranger was made the prince, the value of the stranger could be doubled, and the "strange goods can be lived" also had a basis.
No matter how powerful Lü Buwei was, it was impossible for him to even make the father of the alien a prince and run it by him.
It should be said that Lü Buwei knew Yiren early and kept an eye on him, until one day, when he heard that Yiren's father was made a prince, Lü Buwei saw the opportunity, saw the value of "strange goods", and the huge space that could be operated.
What operations does Lü Buwei need to carry out?
Although the odd goods are available, it still needs a lot of work to be done to talk about the ideal plan and implement it into a realistic action.
Lü Buwei wants to persuade the inhumans, this is easier to say, the inhumans are hostages, if there is a chance to win the next prince, of course, it is a great thing, and the current identity is very low, from low to high, as long as there is a little step, you can take a step, are the road of ascension, are stronger than now, why not enjoy it?
Lü Buwei
Lü Buwei wanted to persuade An Guojun to set up an alien person as the next prince, and An Guojun had dozens of sons, so why should he set up an alien in the middle, which was obviously not an easy task.
Lü Buwei's biggest characteristic is that he is good at starting from the perspective of others, starting from the needs of others, thinking about what others think in their hearts, and meeting the needs of others, which makes him do a hit, always think of the heart, and solve the "pain point" problems that others are most concerned about.
How to impress An Guojun and make him a prince among his many sons?
Lü Buwei thought of Lady Huayang, a woman who was most favored by An Guojun.
To persuade Lady Huayang, it is necessary to see what Lady Huayang lacks. What you care about the most, what you need the most.
Yingzheng's father is a stranger
What is Miss Huayang missing? Son. Lü Buwei went to Madame Huayang's brother and said all kinds of truths, mainly saying that you are now in danger, but you don't know that there are few guests under Prince An Guojun's door, but you are guests, and the limelight has overshadowed the prince, and when the prince succeeds to the throne, isn't it very dangerous? Lady Huayang's brother was of course very afraid, so Lü Buwei gave his own advice: Your sister is now childless, but An Guojun loves her very much, this is her capital, favor comes from beauty, once the beauty decays, the favor will also decay, in order to consider the future, you have to find another way out, long-term plans, find a prince as your son, in the future, if this prince can be made a prince, in the far future, he is the monarch, then your interests will soon be preserved in the long run.
Speaking of this, of course, Mrs. Huayang could not ask for it, Lü Buwei introduced the stranger, saying that this child was very well-behaved, often nagging that he was willing to treat your wife as a mother, and often said that he missed you.
The stranger originally had a mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law was called Xia Ji, but this Xia Ji was not welcomed by An Guojun.
Lady Huayang, Yingzheng's grandmother
Therefore, between the yiren and the lady of Huayang, it is lady Huayang who has no son, and the infidel does not have a mother who is particularly favored by the monarch, so lady Huayang accepts the son of the infidel, and the introvert recognizes the mother of lady Huayang, and each finds a good upward passage. Of course, why do you say why you don't recommend other sons to Lady Huayang, in fact, there are also some words, for example, only the stranger is so filial to the lady, and the other children may not be so good, or their mothers are more or less favored by An Guojun, and those children's desire to find another mother is not so strong.
Lü Buwei also had to operate various aspects of things, such as how the infidels came back, was Zhao Guo willing to let go? How to arrive safely? After the infidel returns, how to implement the idea step by step, and can the cooperation and action of Madame Huayang's side be carried out as expected? Did An Guojun listen?
Finally, the Yiren returned to the Qin Kingdom at the age of 24, and at this time, the yiren's wife Zhao Ji, that is, the concubine between him that Lü Buwei gave to the Yiren, and the 2-year-old Yin Zheng, were still in the Zhao Realm, and they could not return to the Qin Kingdom until 8 years later.
Lü Buwei and the Inhumans
Obviously, from these descriptions of mine, you can see that Lü Buwei is a stranger returning to China, becoming a prince, and then taking Zhao Ji to return to China after 8 years, the planner and executor of all these things, the yiren because of his acquaintance with Lü Buwei, completely changed his later life path, he once promised to give half of the country to you, although there is no 100% implementation, but sealing 100,000 households to Lü Buwei as a food, sealing Hou Baixiang, teaching Yingzheng to call Lü Buwei a middle father, is enough to show that the yiren recognize Lü Buwei's help and contribution from the heart. It is also willing to honour a considerable degree of commitment.
When Yin Zheng returned to China, he was only 10 years old, and what he witnessed and heard must have been his parents and infidels telling him lü buwei's design and assistance for their fate, because even Lady Huayang had taught the yiren to listen to Lü Buwei's teachings more. For YingZheng, Lü Buwei's prestige must be very high.
In addition, the yiren became the monarch for three years, he died, and the 13-year-old Yingzheng took the throne, calling Lü Zhongfu, which must have been taught by adults, at this time, Lü had been the minister for three years, and the young Yingzheng, in ruling, also had to rely on Lü Buwei's assistance. His trust and dependence on Lu must be very deep.
Zhang Tielin's version of Lü Buwei
As he grew into an autonomous ruler, he began to question everything
Lü Buwei is a lively person, his domestic servants are more than ten thousand, Lü Buwei is also a sociable person, and there are thousands of his disciples, not to mention these operations, even if they do not directly pose a threat to the monarchy, just let the monarch watch, it is particularly uncomfortable, which monarch is willing to have such a prominent momentum and a huge pomp and circumstance?
Let's take the matter of Li Si as an example, Yingzheng once saw Li Si's motorcade luxurious style, vast, the heart is very unhappy, just on the facial expression revealed, the eunuch next to him secretly told Li Si, Li Si next time immediately light car Jane, Yin Zheng saw it, immediately felt that someone must have told Li Si what I did last time, so asked the people around who gave Li Si a letter, no one dared to admit it, Yin Zheng killed all these people.

It should be said that although Lü Buwei has great power, he has not done it particularly excessively, or he has considered it very thoroughly, because from the last few words of Evaluation of Lü Buwei by Yingzheng: What merit do you have to the country, and can you seal 100,000 households? What kind of relatives do you have with me that you can call me The Middle Father? The whole family moved to Shudi, from this remark, in fact, it can be seen that Lü Buwei did not make a particularly big mistake, if there is, this letter will definitely be mentioned, it will be written, the content of this letter, just said that the value of Lü Buwei, put forward questions, put forward new thinking, Lü Buwei is really so important? How much is the contribution really? That's the weight at best.
During the reign of Yingzheng, Lü Buwei also did some absurd things, such as having an affair with Zhao Ji, and then operating a concubine to enter the palace to mix with Zhao Ji, who was inexorably powerless and plotted rebellion, and was later arrested and killed. Why did Lü Buwei do this? Zhao Ji's weight and right to speak prompted Lü Buwei to find a way to please him, and perhaps there was also a hot spot of Lü Buwei's unwilling personality, which caused the emergence of various absurd things. Yan Yi entered the palace, but not a day or two, the time is long, and Zhao Ji, that is, Yingzheng's mother, even the children have been born, with the sensitivity of Yingzheng, I think it is impossible not to observe, why did it happen when it happened, and then thoroughly investigate it? There may also be fundamental reasons why these are not too big and small things in the mind of Ying Zheng, at least at the beginning.
Yingzheng's mother, Zhao Ji
But in the end, it is still these things, superimposed, that Yin Zheng feels that Lü Buwei is becoming more and more unlikable, and the tendency to question and deny Lü Buwei is more and more obvious.
Yin Zheng finally hated Lü Buwei, this time very thoroughly
Lü Buwei was finally deposed, that year, Lü Buwei was 55 years old, YingZheng was 22 years old, and Lü Buwei was the prime minister for 12 years.
Although Lü Buwei was deposed, his 100,000 households were still in charge, that is, the taxes of 100,000 households near Luoyang, which did not need to be handed over to the state, and could be handed over to Lü Buwei, which was a huge fortune, and Lü Buwei could live very well in material terms. After being deposed, Lü Buwei was invited by the upper echelons of the Six Kingdoms, Qin was a powerful country, Qin officials, after retiring, the Six Kingdoms were very interested, perhaps a habit at that time, on the one hand, Qin officials, their professional quality will not be bad, in addition, as far as Lü Buwei personally is concerned, it also shows his high prestige.
Inhuman
Maybe in Lü Buwei's heart, there is still a little bit of hope, hoping that Yin Zheng will see that he is so popular, whether he can restore his phase, because he is still valuable, or needed by the people of the Six Kingdoms. However, Yin Zheng's antipathy toward Lü Buwei grew, so there was the letter we mentioned above: What merit do you have to Qin and to me, what kind of relatives do you have, dare to accept the food of 100,000 households, dare I call you Zhongfu?
From Yingzheng's attitude toward his mother Zhao Ji, it can also be seen that it stemmed from Lü Buwei's pampering, and the matter between Yin Yi and Empress Dowager Zhao was also very angry, imprisoning his mother, and 27 subordinates interceded for Empress Zhao, all of whom were killed, and later the 28th person, a man named Mao Jiao, persuaded Yingzheng to release his mother, but in this case, Yingzheng did not punish Lü Buwei very severely, and it was only in the second year that Lü Zheng was deposed. This shows that in Yingzheng's heart, Lü Buwei just hates, but not rebels.
Zhao Ji and Yan Yi
Later, Yingzheng asked Lü Buwei to move to Shudi to find, Lü Buwei committed suicide, in Lü Buwei's view, Yingzheng's decision-making was already telling him that he let him decide on his own, there are many cases in history, all of which let the parties reach that step and make their own decisions. Many analysts say that Lü Buwei was chased and killed after and then committed suicide, but in fact, it is not, the reality is already in front of us, and it is really difficult to change. At this time, Lü Buwei was 57 years old and Yingzheng was 24 years old.
It should be said that Yingzheng still has feelings for Lü Buwei, and he has not denied him 100% from the bottom of his heart, but because of Yingzheng's gradual growth, he is not used to his authority being shared and covered by anyone, nor does he want others to mention another person's name when talking about him, and then say that this person does have great credit to the old Qin family, and he does not want others to say so, which is due to his character.
Lü Buwei himself also made some mistakes, his mistakes, in fact, objectively speaking, Yingzheng did not give him a harsh punishment, however, from dependence to questioning, from questioning to disgust, in the three changes in the relationship between the two, what can be seen is that regardless of whether Lü Buwei is wrong or not, Yingzheng is no longer a young Yingzheng, he can no longer listen to others as before, live in the influence of others, although this influence is getting smaller and smaller. And Lü Buwei's own merits and demerits have also left too many talking points for posterity after the tea and dinner, and its successes and failures can only be left to time to comment.
