Chapter 23
I'm Only Three Years Old

After understanding the reasons behind it, Zhao Chen could naturally avoid these risks and pass on the Fenghou Qimen to the Moon Goddess.

This once again left the Moon Goddess in awe.

While Zhao Chen was idly lounging around, Ying Zheng was quite busy on his end.

He began to take action against the spies from the six kingdoms in Xianyang City.

Most importantly, he started to create trouble for Lü Buwei.

Originally, according to the timeline, Ying Zheng would need at least another two to three years to imprison Lü Buwei.

But since Lü Buwei was digging his own grave, Ying Zheng naturally couldn't let him off.

As for Xiaoyaozi, he had already fled Xianyang City overnight after the failed assassination, thus escaping a calamity.

Although Sheng Qi and Dian Qing also managed to escape, they were facing the pursuit of the Shadow Secret Guards.

However, that Mo family person had not been tracked down.

It was as if he had vanished from Xianyang City altogether.

For this reason, Ying Zheng came to seek confirmation from the National Master, the Moon Goddess.

"Old man, didn't you say that Xianyang City was under your control? How come you can't even find a single Mo family assassin?"

Ying Zheng: ………………

Stinky kid, actually trying to put your old man on the spot.

Unfazed by Ying Zheng's glare, Zhao Chen continued,

"Your Majesty, I calculated a bit, and the Mo family assassin who attempted to kill the young master is none other than Yan Dan. He is secretly a Mo family matrix master and a disciple of the Six-Fingered Black Hero, the next Mo family giant."

"So it's him. No wonder I couldn't find him. I didn't expect him to be right under my nose. What a Mo family, what a Six-Fingered Black Hero."

Ying Zheng chuckled; this move of hiding in plain sight was quite clever.

"Old man, now that you know it's Yan Dan, what do you plan to do?"

"Naturally, I will make him suffer and die. I originally planned to wait until you grew up to hand him over to you for you to take revenge yourself.

But since he dares to jump around, then there’s no need for him to live."

"Old man, I think you should let Yan Dan go!"

"Stinky kid, have you lost your mind? Yan Dan is your enemy." Ying Zheng looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Old man, listen to me. When Jing Ke attempted to assassinate you, you sought revenge on the Mo family, but you only found some lackeys. You didn't find a single main force.

Not only that, but you also faced heavy resistance, didn't you?"

"That's right, the Mo family still holds considerable influence among the six kingdoms. Plus, with the Six-Fingered Black Hero's formidable strength, I only managed to take out a few Mo family contact points within the Qin territory."

"Exactly, the Mo family, like the Confucians, has a significant influence in various countries. Moreover, the Mo family disciples are spread across the six kingdoms, and their strength is quite impressive. But that's not the main point; they have many skilled craftsmen, which is what I want.

So, I have always planned to subdue the Mo family.

Yan Dan is the key to my plan."

"Stinky kid, what are you planning?"

"Old man, what do you think of Yan Dan?"

"He has ambition, aspirations, and is unwilling to be subordinate to others, yet he can endure; he is quite a character."

"That's it! Yan Dan is the Crown Prince of Yan. He wants to make Yan strong, so he must be eager to become a Mo family matrix master. At that time, the Mo family's power will be at his disposal. Therefore, I will let Yan Dan go and then send someone to kill the Six-Fingered Black Hero.

In this way, Yan Dan will naturally become the Mo family matrix master.

We must remember that the Mo family's philosophy is to advocate universal love and non-aggression; they aspire to stop killings.

However, they always keep to themselves and do not join any country. Although this is somewhat contradictory, it must be said that it has allowed the Mo family to grow and thrive.

But Yan Dan is different; he is the Crown Prince of Yan. Once he becomes the Mo family matrix master, he will naturally clash with the Qin, and the Mo family will be exposed.

Most of the Mo family disciples, like the farmers, come from impoverished backgrounds. Before joining the Mo family, they lived at the bottom of society and have experienced the ravages of war.

Many of them do not wish to face war. At that time, if we intervene casually, Yan Dan's position as matrix master will likely be hard to secure.

When people's hearts are not united, the team will naturally be hard to lead.

At this time, as long as the Qin promotes the benefits of unifying the six kingdoms and the treatment of talents, how will the Mo family disciples choose?"

Once Zhao Chen finished speaking, Ying Zheng was left in shock.

"Chen'er, did you come up with all this?"

"Of course, who else could it be? By the way, don't kill that Tian Guang. As the leader of the Farmer's Heroes, let Sister Moon Goddess control him, and the farmers will serve my great Qin.

The farmers are quite strong in agricultural matters, so the increase in crop yield for my great Qin will depend on them."

"Chen'er, you…………"

At this moment, Ying Zheng didn't even know what to say.

Is this really his son?

What was he doing at the age of three?

Cough, cough!

Better not to say anything!

But Chen'er is only three years old! How could he think of such things? Even he…

No, how can I be worse than my son?

Ying Zheng returned, lost in thought.

"Since you say so, Chen'er, then let's do it your way! However, since you proposed all these matters, then in the future, you will handle any situations that arise! I…"

"Wait, wait, old man, I'm just a three-year-old child! You can't make me a child laborer; I won't do it."

Ying Zheng: ………………

Moon Goddess: ………………

Now you remember you're a little kid? What about that astonishing plan you just came up with? Such a scheme that even many strategists couldn't think of.

"Don't try to fool me; you just want to slack off, right? For the past few days, you've either been fishing, playing chess, or sleeping. Since you have such great abilities, then help me share some of the burden."

"I won't do it. There are so many people in the Qin; can’t you find someone else to share the burden for you?

There are many things I need to do, like cultivating, researching crops, making various tools, and formulating plans for the future of the Qin, and so on…"

Zhao Chen rambled on, conveying one message: I've already laid out the plans, so don’t ask me about the next steps.

"Stinky kid, are these the things you need to do next?"

"Of course! By the way, old man, have the Gongshu family submitted yet? What's going on with Zhao Gao? It's been so many days, and there's still no news."

"Zhao Gao has sent word that the Gongshu family has submitted. He will return tomorrow. So what do you plan to do next?"

"Old man, I plan to establish a research institute to develop various offensive weapons and agricultural tools for my great Qin. As the saying goes, 'To do a good job, one must first sharpen their tools.'

Only when our weapons are powerful will the Qin army be invincible.

Once the agricultural tools are improved, the efficiency of farming will greatly increase. These are all tasks that the Academy of Sciences will undertake next.

Speaking of which, both the Gongshu family and the Mo family have gone astray. With their skills, they should be researching various tools instead of thinking about fighting all day; they are truly a bunch of fools."

"Alright, when Gongshu Qiu arrives tomorrow, I'll hand everything over to you. The entire Gongshu family will be under your command, and as for the Academy of Sciences, it can be set up next to the previous General's Office!"

"Thank you, old man."

"Alright, I'm off."

"Farewell, Father!"

"Farewell, Your Majesty!"
