Chapter 38 The ancestral temple is the foundation of the Qin Dynasty! Zhao Zheng's teacher! Looking at Ying Zichu's serious expression. Zhao Zheng also nodded. "Zheng'er." "Do you know our ancestral teachings?" Ying Zichu asked again. "Father." "I just returned and don't know." Zhao Zheng shook his head. He had been growing up in Handan and had never been taught by anyone from the clan. How could Zhao Zheng know what the ancestral precepts were? "The teachings of our ancestors." "All the royal family of the Great Qin should not forget to go east, to strengthen Qin, to unify the country, and to rule the world."
"All the members of the Qin royal family should take it as their responsibility to revitalize and unify the country." Ying Zichu said in a very serious tone. Hearing this ancestral teaching. Zhao Zheng took note of it with a serious expression. "What did the Prophecy of the First Ancestor say?" "Why do you think that the child is the person predicted by the ancestor?" Zhao Zheng still asked puzzled. "The Prophecy of the First Ancestor only has sixteen words." "Under the will of heaven, the whole country is under the control of Qin." "The clouds are like a dragon, and destiny is beginning to appear." Ying Zichu said in a deep voice. "Could this be related to my great-grandfather's dream about me?" Zhao Zheng was still a little surprised. "After your great-grandfather had this dream, he immediately summoned a diviner to do divination, and the celestial phenomena he obtained were exactly in line with the prediction of our ancestor." "Now, do you understand?" Ying Zichu said. Zhao Zheng suddenly came to his senses and nodded. "That is to say." "The reason why I was able to return to Qin was all because of my ancestor." "Five or six hundred years ago, the ancestor predicted my existence." "Could it be that I am really the one destined to unify the world?" now. Zhao Zheng still had some self-doubt. After all, what your father said now is like saying that you will be the emperor who will unify the world in the future.
"Master Zheng." "Although the prophecy was left by the first ancestor, it is still a prophecy." "Whether you can really fulfill the prophecy depends on yourself." Lu Buwei said at the right time. Hear this. Zhao Zheng naturally nodded in understanding. The meaning of Lu Buwei's words was very clear. If one thinks that he is the person predicted by the ancestor and that he can become the king who unifies the world without doing anything, then that is simply impossible. Everything requires your own efforts. "I understand what you said, sir." Zhao Zheng also nodded. "of course." "The ancestor predicted that An Guojun knew it, and his heir also knew it." "The Grand Astrologer knows, and the Ancestral Temple must know, too." "You must make good use of this, young master. These will be your trump cards in the future." "Only the King of Qin can be recognized by the ancestral temple." "My lord, you must understand this principle." Lu Buwei warned again. "gentlemen." "Zhao Zheng has a question." Zhao Zheng looked at Lu Buwei. "Excuse me, sir." Lu Buwei smiled slightly and raised his hand. "What is the status of the ancestral temple in Daqin?" Zhao Zheng asked. “For the ancestral temple.” "As an outsider, I can't explain anything." "Please ask my son to explain it himself." Lu Buwei smiled. Ying Zichu did not hesitate at all and said immediately: "Zheng'er, your father will only tell you one thing." "If the ancestral temple survives, the Qin Dynasty will survive. If the ancestral temple is destroyed, the Qin Dynasty will perish." “But if you want to truly know the background of the ancestral temple, perhaps only King Cheng knows.” For the ancestral temple. The majesty and importance of the ancestral temple are engraved in the hearts of every descendant of the Qin royal family. "I understand, kid." Zhao Zheng nodded, with a look of shock on his face. Although the true background of the ancestral temple is still unclear.
But one thing is clear from his father's words: the ancestral temple is indispensable to the Qin Dynasty and is the cornerstone of the country. "of course." "Although the ancestral temple has a transcendent status." "But its existence is only to continue the unification of the Qin Dynasty." "The ancestral temple never interferes with the disputes over the throne, the selection of the crown prince, or even the military and political power." Ying Zichu added. Zhao Zheng nodded. I secretly vowed in my heart: "The Ancestral Temple is so mysterious. One day, I must see the true face of the Ancestral Temple." "Did you have any famous teacher teaching you when you were in Handan?" Lu Buwei asked with some curiosity. Judging from Zhao Zheng’s conversation, his temperament and courage. It would be impossible to do it without the guidance of a famous teacher. Mention famous teachers. A hint of longing and awe flashed in Zhao Zheng's eyes. I felt the concern of Ying Zichu and Lu Buwei. Zhao Zheng did not hide the fact: "When I was six years old, Qin was attacking Zhao and the army was at the gates of the city." "The Zhao people put my mother and I in jail to vent their anger." "I was overturned by the jailer Zhao and drowned. I almost died." "After I was thrown out, the teacher showed up and saved my life." "Since then, my teacher has taught me the ways of a king and how to deal with the world." "and." "The teacher also found two gentlemen for me, one literary and one martial." When talking about his teacher, Zhao Zheng's eyes were filled with awe. "In two years, I have trained you, Zheng'er, to be so capable. You have such a strong character and courage, and your temperament is even more extraordinary." "I wonder what your teacher's name is?" "Father must thank him very much." Ying Zichu asked. "I don't know the teacher's name." Zhao Zheng shook his head helplessly. "Why is this?" Ying Zichu asked puzzled. "In the past two years, the teacher has never mentioned his name." "It was never said where he was from." "He has always asked me to call him teacher," said Zhao Zheng.
"in this way." "That young master's teacher is truly mysterious." Lu Buwei said with a smile. "Where are the other two?" Ying Zichu asked again. "One of them is called Mr. Bai. I only know his last name is Bai, but he is very strong in martial arts." "One person is Mr. Shen Yue..." Mention Shen Yue. A hint of sadness appeared in Zhao Zheng's eyes. Although he has better knowledge and character than his peers. But after all, he was only eight years old. Thinking of Shen Yue dying to protect himself. Zhao Zheng's heart was filled with sadness. "Sir, in order to protect me, he died together with the great master of Zhao State." Zhao Zheng said sadly. Hear this. Ying Zichu and Lu Buwei's faces changed. Then. Ying Zichu slowly stood up, walked to Zhao Zheng, and gently stroked Zhao Zheng's head. "Don't worry, Zheng'er." "after." "Dad will definitely protect you well." Ying Zichu said in a gentle voice. Zhao Zheng also felt the sincerity in Ying Zichu's words. After continuing for a while. "Heir." "Now that the young master has just returned, he needs to rest." Lu Buwei said at the right time. Ying Zichu nodded and shouted to the outside of the palace: "Manager." "The servant is here." "Please give your orders, my son." The steward of the mansion came over quickly. "Take Zheng'er down and let him have a good rest." Ying Zichu said. "I obey your command." The steward nodded immediately.
"Zheng'er, go down and have a good rest." "Tomorrow you will have your great grandfather's funeral. You will need to observe mourning for three days." "It will be a bit tiring then." Ying Zichu said. "Yes." Zhao Zheng nodded and followed the steward out. …… PS: Please read my article, recommend it, and give me your monthly vote. Thank you. (End of this chapter)
