This first emperor is awesome

After thinking about it, Chen Ping could only smile wryly, "I'm stupid."

"The empire needs fresh blood!"

Ying Zhengchang sighed, looking at the mountain of official affairs, he felt a headache.

Although in order to decompress myself, let the three gongs and nine ministers jointly handle the memorials from various places.

But he was also very busy, and it was Wang Jian who passed away not long ago that Ying Zheng suddenly realized that the important officials of the Great Qin Dynasty were all old!

Moreover, they are not capable ministers of governance, and the opinions they put forward cannot satisfy themselves.

Most of the time, you need to redesign the annotations yourself.

When Chen Ping heard this, his heart was greatly shaken.

The amount of information contained in His Majesty's words is simply too great.

"Your Majesty, do you want to change your appearance?"

Chen Ping was very reserved and tentatively said.

"Li Si is over 70, Feng Quji and Wang Wan are not much different, they are both old."

"The territory of the Great Qin Empire is getting bigger and bigger, but their thinking is getting more and more solidified, and it is difficult to help me realize the supreme ambition and hegemony."

"I need good ministers who govern the country, capable ministers who govern the world, refined ministers, and strong ministers who enrich the people."

"It's not a group of smooth ministers who think less and make no mistakes all day long."

"If all the officials in the world are like this, even if I am exhausted to death, it will not be able to rule the world of Great Qin."

Ying Zheng's face was full of exhaustion, and the more he spoke, the more helpless he became.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

"The king must do everything personally, but the ministers do nothing."

"The ministers steal and play tricks, while the king is tired of tyranny."

"Your Majesty is no longer young, and the holy body should be the most important thing."

Chen Ping deeply thought so.

"What do you think of Jiangzhou, the state shepherd Xiao He?"

Ying Zheng smiled and asked suddenly.

Xiao He?

Chen Ping thought about it for a while and said: "Your Majesty, Xiaozhou Mu ruled the nine counties, and the long-term stability and prosperity of the people. Jiangzhou's taxation has doubled year by year, and its ability to govern the people and stabilize the country is obvious to all, and it is well-known."

Hearing what Chen Ping said, Ying Zheng nodded and said: "I heard that Li Si handles the business until late at night, so you go to the prime minister's mansion to visit the prime minister on my behalf, and pick some precious tonics from the treasury to take with you."

"Your Majesty, do you have a sacred metaphor for your ministers to convey?"

Chen Ping said cautiously, for fear of saying the wrong thing.

Ying Zheng looked at Chen Ping, and after a long time, he sighed and said: "Through the ancient times, there is a merit of establishing a tripod in the Great Qin Dynasty, and Li's merit, I will always remember it in my heart."

"Your Majesty, I must pass on your majesty's sacred metaphor to the prime minister, and I will resign."

After Chen Ping heard this, he was completely sure of His Majesty's business, so going to the Prime Minister's mansion can be regarded as a reassurance.

As long as you think about how to say it and how to say it before you go, you can do your Majesty's errand well.

I believe that the prime minister will be able to understand His Majesty's good intentions if he spends his whole life in the officialdom.

Chapter 197 The whole country is in an uproar and the world is boiling

Xianyang City Prime Minister's Mansion...

Li Si already had white beard and hair, hunched over, sitting in the study with a tired look, reviewing official government documents from all over the place.

Over the years, His Majesty has delegated power to the lower levels, allowing the three lords and nine ministers to jointly handle the various government affairs in various places before presenting them to His Majesty.

The territory of the empire is really too big. Over the years, the empire has flourished, recruiting refugees, and absorbing barbarians from all over the world.

The population has also reached an unprecedented peak, surpassing the peak period of the Zhou Dynasty, approaching hundreds of millions of people.

There are more adults here, and there are more things to do.

There is an endless stream of official documents from all over the empire every day.

Li Si's spirit was getting worse and worse, and his body was getting worse day by day.

cough cough...

Looking at the official document in his hand, Li Si fell into deep thought.

"Master, Shangqing Chen Ping is asking to see you."

The housekeeper came in and bowed to Li Si.

"Chen Ping?"

Li Si was startled, and then immediately said: "Please."

This Chen Ping was young and promising, and was highly valued by His Majesty. In him, Li Si saw the shadow of himself back then.

Unfortunately, time is not forgiving!

There are talents from generation to generation, and a new generation replaces the old ones!

"The minister pays homage to the prime minister."

Although Chen Ping is Shangqing, equal to Jiuqing, he is still a little worse than the prime minister, so he dare not be less polite.

"Why is Shangqing free today? Visiting Bi's mansion really makes Zhenxiang's mansion flourish!"

Li Si quickly smiled and invited Chen Ping to take a seat, and then sat on the main seat without hesitation.

"The prime minister has been working day and night for state affairs, and my ministers have come to visit the prime minister today, and received the emperor's order, to express condolences to the prime minister."

"Your Majesty has shown great favor to the prime minister and bestowed rare tonics to reward the prime minister for his suffering."

Chen Ping arched his hands, first expressing his deep admiration and love, and then explaining the purpose of coming to show the mighty grace of the emperor.

"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness, and I am ashamed to have worked with you."

Li Si sighed in his heart, what should come will always come.

From Chen Ping's words and His Majesty's reward of tonic, Li Si already understood.

His Majesty is telling himself that Si is old!

In my life, from being a commoner to becoming the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, I have had infinite scenery, what more can I ask for?

My own body is very bad.

If it was a few years ago, I might still have a love for power.

But in the past few years, it has been gradually worn away.

The complicated government affairs have made me physically and mentally exhausted, and there is unspeakable suffering.

If I continue to do this job, I'm afraid I will die soon!

It's time to let go and give young people a chance to make their mark.

"The government affairs of the empire are complicated, and the prime minister is already very old, but he is still able to handle the affairs of the empire cleanly."

"The talent of the prime minister is really a model for our younger generations to learn from."

"It's just that time doesn't forgive people. Once people get old, they will feel powerless."

"I don't know if the prime minister feels this way?"

Seeing that Li Si was lost in thought, Chen Ping could only insinuate.

Li Si looked at Chen Ping with cloudy eyes, and then slowly said: "When you are old and strong, it is difficult to change your heart. Poor and strong, why do you have the ambition to fall into the blue sky? You don't change things, you have nothing to cultivate. Sudden promotion, why not?" Is it a heavy responsibility?"

Although he admits that he is old, Li Si has his own pride in his heart.

Chen Ping's seemingly unintentional remarks made Li Si feel a little uncomfortable.

Hearing Li Sizhi's words, Chen Ping was taken aback, and was suddenly stunned, which made him a little embarrassed for a while, so he could only cup his hands and say: "The prime minister taught me, Chen Ping has been taught."

"I have served you for nearly [-] years, and I am grateful for His Majesty's love. I am ashamed of being a prime minister. I am diligent and self-denying, like walking on thin ice."

"Si is old, no matter how difficult it is to assist the Holy Master to develop his grand plans and clarify Xuanyu."

"Now all over the world, everyone praises the virtuous virtue of the Lord. Everyone in the world has the heart to return to Qin."

"The Holy Lord is a majestic and powerful person, benefiting the common people and the country, with a heart of saints, and bringing peace to all generations."

"Although Tong Gu's ambitions have not faded, his body is old and his spirit is declining."

"Where your Majesty wants to go, the old minister will go as well."

"Si has been in Qin Dynasty for more than [-] years. Fortunately, His Majesty appreciates it. I have no regrets in this life."

"I don't know if your Majesty has a sacred metaphor to convey to the old minister?"

Li Si stood up slowly, with his spine straight. At this moment, he almost exhausted all his strength. He only hoped that he still had the same demeanor as before.

Chen Ping was greatly moved when he heard that, and he was deeply moved. He also stood up, bowed his hands to Li Si and said: "Your Majesty said that through the ancient times, there was a meritorious service in the Great Qin Dynasty, and Li's meritorious service, I will always remember it in my heart."

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

"Your Majesty, if there is an afterlife, Si is still willing to follow His Majesty around, saddle and horseback, and die with no regrets!"

Li Si knelt down directly, laughed loudly, and then burst into tears.

Chen Ping bid farewell to Li Si and returned to the palace to return to his orders.

Li Si also returned to the study and continued to review the official documents, because he knew that he would no longer be able to serve His Majesty and the Empire in the future.

In this life, my most glorious moment is about to end. Tomorrow, the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire will stay away from me and never come back.

Xianyang Palace, Pingtian Palace...

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Gao Yi!"

Chen Ping kept the conversation with Li Si intact and told Ying Zheng all about it.

"Li Si never failed me."

"The decree bestowed on Duke Wei Li Siliang a hundred hectares of land, a hundred servants, ten boxes of treasures, and a cart of jade."

"To show his merits and to show his loyalty."

Ying Zhengrao had a heart of stone, so he couldn't help but sigh, his mind was full of memories.

"Your Majesty has bestowed upon you generously and treated Zhongliang kindly. He will be praised by the world and loved by all people."

Chen Ping couldn't help but be surprised by His Majesty's great generosity, and immediately praised it.

"I pass on my decree to appoint Xiao He, the prefect of Jiangzhou, as the prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, and all officials greet him to show his respect."

"Secret Shangqing Chen Ping as the Great Qin Tingwei, in charge of judicial punishment and prison."

"Feng Yushi Cheng Baili Huahua Yushi doctor, in charge of the responsibility of supervising all officials."

"Feng Yuqianlang general Han Xin, as the general of Pingxi, can go to the post, and he will pacify the countries in the Western Regions and promote the power of China."

"Order all the states in the world to recruit convicts and lay light rails to consolidate the foundation of mountains and rivers and facilitate the people's commerce."

"Businessmen all over the world can rent from the imperial court to buy and sell sea-going ships, so as to conduct commerce and trade all over the world and seize the profits of the barbarians."

"Imperial shops, silk, porcelain, glass, tea, rare treasures, all can be sold in Fanyi all over the world to promote the beauty of China."

"If anyone offends the merchant ships of the Great Qin Empire, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Great Qin Empire and will be destroyed with troops."

"The majestic Great Qin, with its natural treasures and outstanding people, is the master of the world."

Ying Zheng was eloquent, made a series of appointments and transfers, and then issued a shocking oath to his subjects all over the world.

The imperial news, the headlines on the front page, are all imprinted on it, the voice of His Majesty.

The government offices in various parts of the empire also have special officials who constantly inform the people under their jurisdiction of His Majesty's imperial decree.

The whole country was in an uproar, and the world was boiling...
