Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 412

Chapter 418

"I have decided that after the funeral at the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow, the position of Prime Minister Zuo will be transferred to Feng Aiqing. What do you think?" Ying Zheng said flatly.

It seems to be an inquiry, but in fact, this sentence is more of a decision.

"I will obey your orders!"

Both Zheng Guo and Wei Liao bowed together and said.

In terms of emotion and reason, after Li Si's death, it was logical for Feng Quji, who had served as the right prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty for more than ten years, to succeed Li Si as the left prime minister.

It's just that the things that I had been thinking about day and night unexpectedly appeared in such a situation, which made Feng Quji feel a mixed feeling.

"What does Feng Aiqing think?" Ying Zheng asked slowly, watching Feng Quji whose expression changed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Feng Quji bowed.

"Then the matter is settled like this. Feng Aiqing moved to the position of Prime Minister of the Left, and who is the Prime Minister of the Right, who do you Aiqing think can take over?" Ying Zheng looked at the three people in the hall and asked in a deep voice.

If there is a position of right prime minister vacant, many courtiers will flock to it if it is left in the past.

However, the three people in the court now have no interest in fighting for me, and it seems that no one in the court is qualified to be the right prime minister.

Zheng Guoben specializes in talents, and it is not his ability to start a government and govern the country.

And Wei Liao himself was not interested in political affairs, now that he holds the position of president of the Military Academy, he is very content to be able to write a book and spread it to future generations.

Several people in Jiuqing are specialized in surgery, which is obviously not suitable.

As for the others, no matter their qualifications or ability, it is difficult to be qualified for this position.

All three were in trouble.

Seeing that they were silent, Ying Zheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and said, "I have someone to choose, but I don't know what you think? How about Ying Gang as Prime Minister You?"

Several people were stunned for a moment, speechless for a long time.

In terms of Ying Gang's talent, it is definitely more than enough to be a right prime minister.

But the key is his identity, and it is really inappropriate to take this position.

The Qin State has never had a tradition of a prince being a prime minister, and no one has become the prime minister of the Qin State for more than a hundred years since the victory of the disease.

But now Yingzheng wants to break this tradition and make his son Yinggang the prime minister.

In a daze, they mistook the Qin State in front of them for the original Wei State. After all, looking at the Warring States Period, only Wei State had a precedent for a prince to serve as prime minister.

As close ministers, how could they not know Ying Zheng's plan.Yingzheng's move now is obviously to elevate Yinggang's position, so that he is one step further away from the position of heir.

"Why, the three lovers don't agree?"

Ying Zheng's voice suddenly became much lower.

"The ministers have no objection, but the son is too young and has too many powers. Does this make him a little weak?" Feng Quji looked at Yingzheng in front of him and asked in a low voice.

Seeing that the three of them did not object, Ying Zheng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, let him take a position, and you, Feng Aiqing, will handle the daily affairs."

Feng Quji heard that the stone hanging in his heart fell down.

His only worry was that Ying Zheng wanted to take this opportunity to reduce the power of the prime minister. Seeing that Ying Zheng had no such plan, and even had the intention of leaving him alone as prime minister, he would be stupid if he didn't know how to do it.

"The minister obeys the order."

The other two had no dissatisfaction in the first place, so naturally it was impossible to object.

Yingzheng took this opportunity to say: "I intend to move Li You, the prefect of Sanchuan County, to be the guard. What do the three lovers think?"

Li You, the eldest son of Li Si.

Now he is serving as the sheriff in Sanchuan County.

Although this is a hard job, it is the position that Ying Zheng pays the most attention to.

It is not difficult to promote and reuse him based on his background, but the current situation is a bit special. Li Si had just passed away, and Ying Zheng promoted Li You's position.Is this the emperor's compensation to Li Si?The three of them couldn't help but have such doubts at the same time.

From the moment they heard of Li Si's death, everyone knew that Li Si was obviously forced to death by the emperor.

This is his own fault.After all, the intention to assassinate the emperor is to punish the nine clans.

However, just now the emperor wanted Li Si's eldest son, Li You, to be the Weiwei. This situation seems to be not as simple as he and others thought.

"The Prime Minister did not admit anything. I did not force the Prime Minister." Seemingly seeing what the three of them were thinking, Ying Zheng thought for a while.

Although he didn't say it clearly, the three people in the hall must have guessed the relationship between Li Si and what happened tonight.

At the same time, Ying Zheng is also very aware of the complicated relationship between the three people in the hall and Li Si.

Enemies and friends, although they have different political views, they all cherish each other.

Because, these people, in fact, there is no difference.

The only thing that is different is what the establishment and punishment seek, and political opinions.

Those who despise enemies are ungrateful, those who despise gratitude are ungrateful, those who despise righteousness are ungrateful, and those who despise filial piety are the most ruthless.

The emperor is originally a widow.However, widows are also people.

Although he is the emperor, Hu Hai doesn't want to be alone.

Some things should be said, some things can not be said.Li Si's death is his own fault.But looking at his life, Li Si's merits and demerits are really difficult to comment on.More importantly, what Li Si did was not to assassinate the emperor.

This point was already clear from Li Si's letter to Ying Zheng.

Li Si, greedy for power, also loves his family.

Even if he is a black-bellied person, he still has a piece of pure land in his heart.Maybe small, but there will always be.

Some things are not clear.Then the feeling of sadness of the death of the rabbit and the fox will inevitably breed among the few important ministers of the Great Qin who cherish each other.

The monarch and his ministers are united, and this is the feat of the six kings and the four seas.But now, Yang Fan again, but he didn't expect that the rabbit died first, and Ying Zheng didn't want to leave an image of himself as ruthless and ungrateful in the hearts of several important officials.

Hearing Ying Zheng's soft whisper above the main hall, the three people in the hall suddenly understood.

"I will obey your orders!"

Zheng Guo, Wei Liao and Feng Quji bowed at the same time.

"It's so good. The news of the prime minister's death must have been discovered by the prime minister's mansion. How to deal with it, all loves, please tell me."

Although Li Si's death was sudden, it was obvious that he would return to the mansion to commit suicide.It is precisely to minimize the impact, so as not to cause chaos in the situation in Guanzhong of Daqin.

After all, this time was not the time when Li Si died.

In the original history, the high-ranking officials and officials of the Great Qin Dynasty, such as Meng Tian, ​​Meng Yi, Feng Quji, Feng Jie, etc., had all died long ago, and more heirs of the First Emperor were massacred and killed by Hu Hai.Li Si's death was nothing more than the end of another great Qin official.At that time, Daqin was approaching its end, so who cares whether Li Si is alive or dead.

At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty!" Zheng Lun tremblingly knelt on one knee at the entrance of the main hall.

"What's the matter?" Ying Zheng understood what Zheng Lun wanted to report.

"The second son of the Prime Minister. Li Tuo is asking to see you outside the palace." Zheng Lun said here, took a deep breath, and said in a trembling voice: "According to him, the Prime Minister passed away last night!"

Sure enough, this is the case.

"Xuan!" Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Your servant obeys the decree!" Zheng Lun did not expect that the emperor would not be surprised at the death of Prime Minister Zuo Li Si, the most important official in the Great Qin Dynasty. It seemed that the emperor had known about this for a long time.Immediately Zheng Lun threw away this idea, how could the emperor know whether the prime minister was dead or alive in the palace.

A moment later, under the guidance of Zheng Lun, Li Tuo, the second son of Li Si, came in a hurry.
