Daily life in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 54 Appointments
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

This is not empty talk.

Mo Jun's meritorious service is still short, and he hasn't accumulated enough background.Originally, just being promoted to the eleventh rank of title in a row and being promoted to the head of the right concubine already made Mo Jun like a rootless duckweed in the water.

If the title was promoted again at this time, Shao Shangzao who had reached the [-]th rank all the way, then Mo Jun's position would really become a castle in the air.

And under such circumstances, if the relationship between Mo Jun and Ying Zheng is exposed, and he is involved in the whirlpool struggle for power in the court, the ones who welcome Mo Jun will probably be the three forces of Zhao Ji, Hua Yang, and Lu Buwei. Joint suppression.

Even if one of these three forces uses a little power, it will be a catastrophe for Mo Jun today.

The power struggle is not a fight in the rivers and lakes.

The opponents don't need to kill Mo Jun at all, they only need to move their mouths a little to completely evade Mo Jun's rights, then Mo Jun will naturally become a useless person to Ying Zheng.

And Mo Jun never thought that he could beat these old foxes in the power struggle.

Because the advantages he possessed were never above the court.

Again.

Compared with the "natives" such as Lu Buwei, Queen Mother Zhao Ji, and Queen Mother Huayang, Mo Jun, the "time traveler", is playing away games in this world.

In a real fight, Mo Jun is almost equivalent to the football game of later generations, he is alone at Manchester United's home court, against the entire Manchester United team.

It's not a question of difficulty.

It's a question of whether the game can start.

But this kind of attack from outside, no matter whether it can be prevented or not, at least it can be resisted a little bit.

What is really powerful is Lu Buwei's heart attack.

Young and energetic.

This is a very realistic idiom.

Precipitation, experience...

Words like this that should be used on young people are often the least favorite things of young people.

If Mo Jun's real age is really the same as his appearance.

Then Lu Buwei's flattering words just now fell into his ears, and it is very likely that they will really become praises.

in contrast.

Meng Ao's dissuasion will be regarded as a 'suppression' of himself.

Even today's Mo Jun, after hearing Lu Buwei's speech at the beginning, he couldn't control his heart.

Even if he had seen through Lu Buwei's conspiracy at that time, Mo Jun still couldn't help but have a little fantasy in his heart.

This is not a conspiracy.

It is an open conspiracy against human nature.

After all, many people can tell a lot of truths, but how many people can really practice them?
"Mr. Mo, what do you think?"

What Mo Jun can see through, Ying Zheng can't see through, but if he wants to break this situation, the first thing to look at is Mo Jun's own attitude.

If Mo Jun couldn't see through it himself, and wanted to die, then even gods couldn't save him.

So just when Ying Zheng spoke, Mo Jun said decisively: "The minister is too young to take on important responsibilities, and I may need to practice for a few more years."

Hearing Mo Jun's words, the eyes of Ying Zheng and Meng Ao naturally secretly showed satisfaction.

However, at this moment, Lu Buwei said again: "Since Mo Jun You Shuzhang doesn't want to be promoted to Shaoshangzao, it's better to serve as a county guard, so that he can be in line with the current status of Mo Jun You Shuzhang."

Obviously, Lu Buwei didn't intend to let Mo Jun go.

This speech.

It seems that they are discussing with Mo Jun, but they are actually 'negotiating terms' with Ying Zheng.

From the beginning to the end, Lu Buwei was targeting Mo Jun on the surface, but in fact he was suppressing the forces cultivated by Ying Zheng, and did not want Ying Zheng's power to grow.

Ying Zheng secretly clenched his fists under his sleeves, and he naturally understood what Lu Buwei meant.

In this game, Lu Buwei had taken the initiative to take a step back, so the other step would naturally have to be made by Ying Zheng.

"Do you have any advice?"

After a while, Ying Zheng let go of his fist, turned his gaze to the rest of the ministers below, and said slowly.

There was a commotion under the court hall.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man with a calm face came out more and more, bowed to Yingzheng and said, "I think it's not appropriate. The post of county guard is not a trivial matter. I think I need to think twice."

As soon as the words fell, a man with a fair face and a strange temperament came out of the ministers again, and said: "Mr. Changping's words are wrong, but this Marquis thinks that Mr. Mo is a talented young man. , it is more than enough for a small county guard."

The two who walked out successively were none other than Changping Lord Xiong Qi and Changxin Hou Lai Ai.

And behind these two people are the other two powerful forces in the current state of Qin Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Huayang and Zhao Ji.

Empress Dowager Huayang is the grandmother of Yingzheng.

Zhao Ji is Ying Zheng's biological mother.

However, the sad thing is that whether it is Yingzheng's grandmother or Yingzheng's biological mother, the person they choose to support is not the current king of Qin Yingzheng.

Lord Changping, supported by the Empress Dowager Huayang, seemed to be in the same camp as Yingzheng just now, but his purpose of speaking was not to support Yingzheng, but to restrain Lu Buwei.

As for Lao Ai, who was originally supported by Zhao Ji to restrain Lu Buwei, but when it comes to targeting Ying Zheng, the two have unified interests.

This is the current situation in the court of Qin State.

Lu Buwei, Zhao Ji, Empress Dowager Huayang, and Yingzheng fought against each other, and the situation in the entire court was almost chaotic.

Lord Changping, Yingzheng and Lu Buwei and Lao Ai had a stalemate for a long time.

at last.

Ying Zheng said: "Since this is the case, we will follow what Lu Xiang said. From now on, Mr. Mo will take the title of You Shuchang and appoint him as the governor of Nanjun County. He will go to Nanjun County to take up his post within a month."

This statement came out.

Lu Buwei looked up at Ying Zheng in surprise, but in the end he didn't say much.

This can be regarded as the last time Ying Zheng gave Mo Jun a hand.

The location of Nanjun is almost in the Jingzhou of later generations, and the capital is Yingdu, which was one of the old capitals of Chu State.

Because the area is close to the Yangtze River, there are abundant water resources, and there are also a lot of prey in the mountains and forests. After all, it was able to be chosen as the capital by the Chu State, and the environment itself cannot be too bad.

The only disadvantage is probably that it is too far away from the capital of Xianyang, and it is almost one of the counties farthest from Xianyang in Qin State today.

Now is not 2000 years from now.

With today's traffic, no matter how beautiful the environment in Nanjun is, once you leave Xianyang, you are far away from the center of power. If you want to return to Xianyang, it will be even more difficult.

But this is obviously what Ying Zheng did on purpose.

After all, although Nanjun is far away from the power center, it also means that he is far away from the power vortex of the court. No matter how fierce the struggle in Xianyang is, it is basically impossible to affect him.

As long as Ying Zheng still remembers him, Mo Jun will still have a chance to stand up in the future.

Ah!
At least judging from the current situation, this is the result of the court meeting.
