Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

Ying Zheng had just issued an order to make Wei Liao a national lieutenant to assist Ying Yuan in handling the country's military affairs.

Before the battle at Hangu Pass was over, he sealed off meritorious officials here for two main reasons.

One is to try to reduce Ying Yuan's power.

It's not that he has doubts about him, it's just that Ying Zheng doesn't want any seedlings of powerful ministers to appear in the future.

The second is to send a message to the outside world.

The king of Qin appointed a foreigner as a national captain, just to reuse the foreigner.

The merit-seeking decree promulgated a few days ago has indeed made Qin State replenish a lot of talents.

But this is not enough for Ying Zheng's ambition.

In fact, after the unification of the world, the establishment of the prefecture and county system often feels stretched in terms of the number of local officials.

Before Feng Guowei, Ying Zheng asked Ying Yuan for his opinion, of course, it was only superficially.

Now that he has decided on this matter, it doesn't matter what the latter thinks.

Ying Yuan didn't dare not agree to this matter in front of civil and military officials. Once he expressed a different opinion, it would be tantamount to making Ying Zheng look bad.

Even brothers, as long as it involves their own interests, there will be some differences.

For them, they will only hide this difference in their hearts.

But they don't know that this will only make the differences bigger and bigger until the day when they can't be stitched together.

When returning home, Changping Lord Mi Qi hurriedly caught up with Ying Yuan, and said loudly, "Master Hou! Master Hou!"

Hearing the sound, the latter frowned slightly, turned around, saw the person coming, and said with a loud smile: "It turns out that it is me, Daqin Xiangbang, I wonder if Lord Changping called to stop Benhou, but something happened?"

"Master Hou is joking."

Mi Qi bowed and said: "In front of you, I have always been a lowly official, a lowly one..."

Seeing him hesitant to speak, Ying Yuan smiled as he walked, "Speaking of business, the Marquis still has a lot of military affairs to deal with."

In fact, apart from the things over at Hangu Pass, there is really nothing else going on.

He said this simply because he didn't want to get too close to Mi Qi.

After all, in recent days, there have been many rumors in Xianyang that he is Lu Buwei's second.

I'm afraid that such slanderous remarks have already reached Ying Zheng's ears.

In an extraordinary time, he just wants to be alone.

Otherwise, it would not be very good if there is such a thing as a reconciliation of generals.

But even so, Prime Minister Mi Qi's attitude towards him was only respectful.

Because he knew very well that once Ying Yuan attacked him, he would definitely not be able to hold the position of prime minister for long.

Right now, the king only pays attention to training foreigners, such as Li Si, Wei Liao, etc., are all foreigners who can serve as prime ministers.

Wei Liao, also known as Wei Liao.

"Master Hou, there is indeed one thing. I wonder if you have taken in a traitor in the net, called a startled salamander?" Mi Qi said quickly.

Hearing the sound, Ying Yuan stopped and looked back, "Who are you asking for?"

Mi Qidao: "Your Majesty doesn't know something. Luo Wang has been under the joint management with Zhao Gao. After all, the latter is an official of my prime minister's mansion. Two days ago, he told me that the traitor Luo Wang has been chasing down is gone." At your house..."

Speaking of this, he saw that Ying Yuan's face was not right, so he shut up wisely.

"Mi Qi, Mi Qi, after you became the Xiangbang of the Great Qin Dynasty, did you really act lawlessly and recklessly? Find someone who dares to find the Marquis's residence?"

Ying Yuan's eyes turned cold.

Mi Qi suddenly looked embarrassed, "Master Hou...I..."

"All right!"

Ying Yuan interrupted forcefully: "Are you really stupid or fake stupid? Can you tell me about this kind of thing? How did you open your mouth? You are too tender to ask Benhou for someone, and that Zhao Gao, is he instigating you behind your back?

Let him go to benhou's mansion to ask someone, the premise is that he has to get out alive!He didn't dare to come by himself, so he used you as a swordsman, and you can bear it? Don't let another day, you, the prime minister, exist in name only! "

After speaking, he resolutely left without looking back.

Mi Qi looked at his back with a dignified expression, and sighed: "I don't want to find someone like you, the evil star, either. It's not that the king insists on bringing me to justice for the startled salamander..."

Yingzheng wants to revive the trap, and the startled salamander is very likely to be a very important chess piece.

In other words, the startled salamander itself is not important, what is important is to let the assassin in the net see Qin's attitude.

Anyone who dares to disobey the king's order or leave the organizer without authorization will be killed without mercy!

Of course, it's not that Ying Yuan didn't guess this point, but the entrustment of an old friend is equally important in his heart.

As far as the two brothers are concerned, the friendship between each other will never be affected by a shocking salamander.

At the same time, Ying Yuan also wanted to see if what he, the great Sima, said in Qin after Lu Buwei's death counted.

In fact, in secret, the military power and the royal power have begun to compete with each other.

As for Xiangquan...it has lost its former status.

[Chapter 128.125: Assassinate Ji Wuye]

The force that Ying Yuan now represents is not only himself.

Behind him are thousands of clan descendants and the military represented by Wang Jian.

That's why Ying Zheng felt threatened.

After all, the current Ying Yuan is fully capable if he wants to carry out a coup d'état.

For Ying Zheng, it doesn't matter whether the other party has the intention of rebelling, what matters is whether the other party has the ability to rebel.

At this moment, he looked very much like the former King Zhaoxiang.

The latter killed Bai Qi back then because he felt that Bai Qi had enough ability to rebel.

But will he rebel?

Everyone knows that Bai Qi has always been loyal to Daqin Sheji.

The current Yingzheng is far more suspicious than King Zhaoxiang. After all, he has just experienced Xiangfu's rebellion and the detection of foreigner Zheng Guo spies, and he becomes moody at times.
