This first emperor is awesome

"The eldest princess is in her prime, and the minister is already rotten. She is not worthy of the eldest princess, and even less able to bear His Majesty's love."

"Your Majesty is ashamed, please forgive me."

Wang Jian's face was full of sincerity, and what he said seemed to be from the bottom of his heart.

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian who was kneeling on one knee, pleading guilty to him, and stood up.

He walked down from the throne slowly, then he lowered his waist to support Wang Jian, looked at the fearful Wang Jian and said: "Over the years, the old general has asked for something, and I will answer it."

"I am not the king of Yue, Goujian, and the old general will not become a seed."

"I'm not even Fu Chai, nor is the old general Wu Zixu."

"Over the years, the old general has been worried that the birds will run out, the good bows will be hidden, the cunning rabbits will die, and the lackeys will cook."

"After all these years, haven't I done enough?"

"Actually, I knew that the old general was suffering from a hidden illness many years ago. The reason why I sent Yuanman to the Wang family and betrothed to you is indeed two selfish intentions."

"First, back then I handed over all the soldiers of the whole country to the old general, and the eldest princess entered the royal family to tell the old general that the Wang family and the royal family live together in solidarity, and that both will prosper and all will suffer."

"Secondly, the old general is cautious by nature. Everyone knows that I regard the Eldest Princess as the jewel in my palm. She is the most beloved of all my daughters. This is equivalent to giving the Wang family a security guarantee."

"As long as the eldest princess is here, the Wang family of Fuping will be honored and favored forever. I thought that such an old general would be able to let go of his guard, but I didn't expect that I would make a mistake in the end."

"Today, I took the matter out of the way and said that the Wang family will stand firm in Daqin for one day."

"I will remember the old general's immortal feats in my heart, and the king of the Great Qin will never forget Wang's contribution and sacrifice for Qin."

"The old general had five sons, and four of them died fighting for the country. Only General Wang Ben was left. He also became a minister of the Great Qin Dynasty and a famous general who shocked the world."

"I am not a mean and ungrateful king, nor am I a mediocre lord who is jealous of the virtuous and capable."

"At the age of 13, he inherited the great rule, followed the great wishes of the ancestors of all dynasties, swept across the world, and swept across the world, invincible."

"As the First Emperor, who has never been seen before or since, I don't need to kill my blood relatives to justify his name, and I don't need to kill meritorious deeds to secure my position."

"Thousands of generations, if you are loyal to Daqin, you will have a good death. Those who betray Daqin will have evil consequences."

Ying Zheng held Wang Jian's big hand, understanding it with emotion and moving it with reason, his weapon was imposing, and his momentum was magnificent.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

"Your Majesty's heart is shameful."

"Your Majesty's ambition makes me feel ashamed."

Wang Jian was both excited and ashamed, his face was full of gratitude, and his old eyes were red.

"Old general, do you still have any concerns?"

Ying Zheng laughed.

"It's gone, it's gone."

"It's just that I really wronged the princess."

Wang Jian was also full of smiles, and the knot between the monarch and his ministers was resolved, and then he sighed again.

"As a member of the royal family, enjoying the honor that ordinary people can't match, you should naturally shoulder the burden of the royal family. The old general doesn't need to worry about it."

"Let Yuan Man take care of the old general on my behalf!"

Although Ying Zheng's heart was tingling, he still had a firm attitude.

"Sir, thank Your Majesty for your grace."

Wang Jian couldn't help but respectfully said.

"Is Yuanman okay?"

Ying Zheng suddenly changed his subject, turned around, turned his back to Wang Jian, and said with a complicated expression.

Looking at His Majesty with his back turned to him, Wang Jian felt a sense of desolation and loneliness rushing towards his face.

He is indeed a lofty and unparalleled king, but he is also a father.

Kings also have the helplessness of kings. They seem to be aloof and hold important weapons in their hands.

But it is precisely because of this that the king will have more helplessness.

What is a heavy weapon?

If it is hanging in the air, once it falls, blood will flow into rivers, corpses will be scattered all over the field, all living beings will tremble, and everyone will be in awe.

If the king has no restraint and abuses the power of the emperor, everyone will be in danger and the world will be in chaos.

Killing people every day is what madmen do.

On the contrary, it will not show your strength, it will only make people feel that you will die sooner or later, it is better to take a risk and kill the lunatic to make yourself safe.

Therefore, all wise lords and sages will never abuse the important weapons of the country, and will only use them when necessary to frighten the hearts of the ancients.

Power should be used, not not used.

If you don't use it all the time, it will only make people feel weak and deceitful, and you will be an incompetent and fatuous king.

Why is Your Majesty supported by his subjects?

It is because of His Majesty's great talent, never abused the country's important weapons, and never killed innocent people indiscriminately, and people are convinced to follow, loyal to His Majesty, and serve the empire.

How can a hero with clear rewards and punishments and a broad mind not be imitated by others?

"Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess is well, but she is still unwilling to enter the palace with my ministers."

Wang Jian put aside his thoughts and sighed quietly.

"Yuan Man was smart, well-behaved and filial since childhood, and won my heart. It was my father who was incompetent."

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth, and then he walked slowly towards the throne, every step being very heavy.

"Your Majesty, the princess is still young, so she cannot understand His Majesty's good intentions."

"Your Majesty, please don't blame yourself, it's all because of the crime of the minister."

Wang Jian was a little embarrassed, what is this called?

I absolutely dare not divorce, so I can only smear my name and let the princess divorce her husband.

But obviously, even if His Majesty has regrets in his heart, he is unwilling to take this step in order to protect the face of the Wang family.

Let His Majesty regret the marriage, where is the face of the royal family?

It doesn't work at all, so in life, even if you stand at the pinnacle of power, it is still impossible to do what you want in the world and do whatever you want!

As the saying goes, people's words are awesome, but after all, we still have to be scruples about human relations.

Especially when it comes to the royal family, you need to be more cautious.

As soon as there is a disturbance and it leaks out, it will often become more and more violent, and the more it spreads, the more outrageous it is.

Sitting on the throne, Ying Zheng was obviously absent-minded and said: "If there is nothing important, I want to be alone for a while."

Hearing His Majesty's order to evict guests, Wang Jian pondered for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, the world is now stable and the world is peaceful. I am old and want to return to my hometown for the elderly. Please allow me your Majesty's permission."

Ok?

Ying Zheng was brought back to his thoughts, his brows were slightly frowned, and soon he relaxed and said, "Old General, what I just said is all in vain."

"Your Majesty, please don't get me wrong, I have no such intentions."

"It's just dozens of years of fighting in the north and south. I don't know how many times I was on the front line of life and death. There are more than a hundred wounds on my body."

"The minister is old, already sixty-seven, time is not forgiving!"

"Now that the great Qin Dynasty is so powerful, I can finally enjoy my life with peace of mind. I have all the honors that I should fight for, and I should also leave opportunities for the younger generations to make meritorious deeds."

"Your Majesty, you don't want this old minister to run around with his old bones, do you?"

"I can't stand the toss, I can't say it, so I just shake the old bones of the old minister."

Wang Jian said with a wry smile, in the conversation, there was a lot of complacency but also some embarrassment and vicissitudes.

"I gave you the Wang family all the jewels in my palm, and I will not agree to retreat before the battle."

Ying Zheng picked up a roll of brocade cloth from the black wooden table in front of him, waved his hand, and threw it down at Wang Jian.

Wang Jian's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the brocade cloth flying towards him, he caught the brocade cloth with agility and firmness.

When I opened it, I could no longer look away from those cloudy old eyes.

As if he had found a treasure, his face showed excitement from time to time, and his cloudy eyes overflowed with brilliance.

"Your Majesty, where did this map come from?"

"Is the geographical record confirmed correct?"

After a long time, Wang Jian was restrained again, unable to believe it.

"Old general, the journey of Great Qin is the sea of ​​stars, don't let the elimination of the six kingdoms, this small success extinguish your ambition!"

Ying Zheng smiled without saying a word, and said something meaningful.

"I understand."

Wang Jian cupped his hands and bowed.

But soon he became a little discouraged, and he said with a feeling of being a hero: "Unfortunately, with such a vast mountain and river, the old minister may not see the black imperial flag of the empire floating on these fertile lands in the distance."

"Old general, I may not see that day, but I have the second emperor and the third emperor. One day, at the ancestor worship ceremony, the king of the future generations of Daqin will tell me the news."

"The old general also has sons, grandsons, great-grandchildren, descendants and grandchildren. On that day, the descendants of the Wang family will also inform the old general on the day of ancestor worship."

"I will use the rest of my life to build an empire, and leave a solid foundation for future kings to complete the imperial hegemony that no one has ever done before, and no one will come back."

"It is known that everything will be over after passing away, and the sad sun and moon have not yet turned into the sky. Wang Shidong crossed the ocean day, and family sacrifices should not be forgotten to tell Nai Weng."

Ying Zheng's eyes were piercing, like a scorching sea of ​​fire, warming everything in the world.

"It's a good sentence, Wang Shidong crossed the ocean day, don't forget to tell Nai Weng at the family sacrifice."

"The realm of a minister is far from your Majesty's."

"Although my body is decayed, I still wish to be Your Majesty. Even if I die, I will go."

Wang Jian knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and bowed to Ying Zheng.

"I don't want to bear the reputation of abusing loyal ministers and good generals. I don't want you to die, as long as you live well, live noble and elegant, and live with infinite beauty."

"Wang Jian listens."

Ying Zheng smiled dumbly, then said seriously.

"The minister is here."

Wang Jian immediately said solemnly.

"Wang Jian was appointed as the first Duke of the Great Qin Dynasty, with the title of Huguo, with an annual salary of five thousand shi."

On the way back to Xianyang, Yingzheng had already decided that he would add another rank to the twentieth rank of military merit, so as to inspire the fighting spirit and ambition of the three armies.

"The minister leads the order, thank you Your Majesty."

Wang Jian was greatly shocked that His Majesty added another title without any notice.

Although he has never heard of the Duke of the country, he also knows that it is a first-class honor in the world to be named Duke Protector.

Moreover, he was also the first Duke of the Great Qin Empire to rule the world. With this alone, he could be famous in history and immortalized forever.

I have been a marquis many years ago, since I have been rewarded again, I don’t need to think about it, I also know that the duke position in this country must be higher than the marquis, otherwise, wouldn’t your majesty shoot yourself in the foot?

Chapter 23 Only when the sky of Yingzhou is filled with blood can it be servile

After Wang Jian left, Ying Zheng began to process the memorial.

But not long after, Zhao Zhong rushed in again and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Li and his son Li You are out to see you."

Ying Zheng put down the memorial and sighed inwardly. It seems that today he will turn on the light to deal with state affairs again: "Xuan."

"According to the order."

Zhao Zhong bowed his hands again, and after taking a few steps back slowly, he turned and left.
