Chapter 17: Shang Ying's self-recommendation
In the Xianyang Palace, Qin Daiyang had just descended to the court. Back in the imperial study, Qin Daiyang pinched his brows with some annoyance.
"Alas, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are staring at the position of the court lieutenant. Every time I go to court, I recommend their people to me. I'm scared!"
When Chen Chen heard this, he smiled slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, you might as well go find the Ninth Princess in this matter." After all, the Ninth Princess is solely responsible for this matter. ”
Qin Daiyang raised his head and glared at the snickering display. "Of course I know who to look for. But does the Ninth Princess have anyone in her hands? Is there anyone who can be qualified to be the court lieutenant? I thought that she had the help of the fourth child, who would think that the fourth child, a short-sighted thing, actually hooked up with Yao Jiyong, I was really angry!"
"Alas, Your Majesty, the Four Princes cannot be blamed for this matter. After all, the four princes had just returned to Beijing, and they were not very clear about the situation in the court. Chen Chen explained.
"Hmph, don't say nice things to them. Can I not know the virtue of the fourth child? The reason for conferring the title of prince is to let him accumulate military merits, and he will form parties everywhere for personal gain, let him provide disaster relief and control floods. Look at what he has done? He withheld disaster relief funds, caused great chaos in the local area, and finally united with the local government to quell the chaos. He is worse than Yao Jiyong!"
Qin Daiyang's words were full of disappointment with his fourth son.
Zhan Lie's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the four princes are considered to be the emperors among the several princes." Haven't you been excluded from the princes by the other princes?"
"Alas, it is better to have a child than a daughter. What do you call this!" Qin Daiyang shook his head in annoyance.
The matter of establishing a prince has always been a problem in his heart. However, his sons are indeed not angry. There is no ambition not to mention, and the heart is full of all kinds of intrigues. Sometimes I wonder if I have mistaken my son and daughter.
"By the way, I heard that the Ninth Princess has been very close to Wuhou these days?" Qin Daiyang suddenly raised his head and asked.
Chen Lie nodded slightly, "Yes, the ninth princess has been living here in the Wuhou Mansion for the past few days." Moreover, just before yesterday, the ninth princess recommended a person to the princes. ”
"Oh?" Qin Daiyang showed a trace of doubt on his face, and asked, "What kind of person?"
Chen Lie bent down and said, "The news from the various provinces shows that this person seems to be testing the princes. Moreover, this person was introduced to the Ninth Princess by Wuhou. After the ninth princess met with this person that day, the incident of Sun Yan, the later court captain, happened. ”
"You mean Tingwei's matter, this person is the one who pointed out the Ninth Princess behind his back?" Qin Daiyang's face became solemn.
"The old slave is just guessing. Lie bowed his head.
Qin Daiyang stood up and walked back and forth twice in front of the dragon case.
After a moment, Qin Daiyang asked, "Bringing down Sun Yan also has your participation." Why did the Ninth Princess look for you at that time?"
Chen Chen thought for a moment and said, "The old slave is also strange. At that time, the ninth princess suddenly came to find the old slave. After meeting, the ninth princess very directly asked for Sun Yan's handle. It was as if he knew that the old slave had Sun Yan's handle in his hand. ”
"You gave it without asking the reason?" Qin Daiyang asked, grabbing the display.
"Hehe, doesn't the Ninth Princess have your special order. Chen Chen smiled awkwardly.
"I..."Qin Daiyang was speechless for a while. Letting go of the display, Qin Daiyang hesitated for a while, and said to the display, "You go and bring that person to the palace now." I want to see him personally. ”
"Yes, the old slave will do it. "Lie is about to leave.
"Wait, don't let anyone else know. Qin Daiyang commanded again.
"Yes. ”
...
Shang Ying walked on the street, his heart full of helplessness. This Qin State really can't be compared with the Qin State in Chinese history.
In terms of national strength, military and politics, this Qin State is far from being compared with the Chinese Qin State. However, from the point of view of the rulers, there is no comparison at all.
"My change is not something that can be achieved in one generation, not in a day. You can't change the law!"
Shang Ying is now in a predicament.
"Ahh Uh"
When passing by a trail, suddenly, Shang Ying's neck hurt, and the whole person lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, Shang Ying had already appeared in the imperial study.
Shang Ying, who is also a person. After a slight loss of consciousness, it has returned to normal.
On the dragon platform, Qin Daiyang and Chen Chen glanced at each other, and a trace of different color flashed in their eyes.
"The grass people have seen Your Majesty. ”
Shang Ying knelt down and bowed, and the etiquette was complete without revealing the slightest rustic look.
"This person is not simple!" Qin Daiyang thought secretly in his heart.
"Flat. After Qin Daiyang excused himself, he then asked, "Do you know why I came to you?"
"Your Majesty wants to see me. Shang Ying smiled.
"You... Okay!" Qin Daiyang was angry for a while. After thinking about it, he said, "What have you been doing in the past few days, what is your purpose in constantly going in and out of the princes?"
Qin Daiyang was furious, stood up and pointed at Shang Ying and shouted.
Under Long Yan's anger, Shang Yan did not panic at all. Calmly and calmly, without losing the slightest, he said, "The grass people are the staff of the Nine Princesses, and they are specifically looking for candidates for the Nine Princesses who can be attached to the prince. ”
As soon as Shang Ying's words came out, even the display was taken aback. Qin Daiyang was even more furious.
"Bastard, dare to be presumptuous in front of His Majesty!" Chen Chen said angrily and in a threatening voice.
Qin Daiyang sat down slowly, his eyes wide open. "You. Say, this was said by the Ninth Princess herself?"
Shang Ying: "The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which is different. His Majesty is old but has not yet established an heir, and His Majesty has taken concubines one after another in recent years. It's just that he doesn't look down on his current princes!"
"However, Your Majesty, you are old and have limited energy. There are all kinds of troubles in the court, even if you have a little prince, do you still have the energy to teach the little prince?"
There was silence in the hall for a while. Chen Lie's heart was raised in his throat. He introduced this person to Qin Daiyang according to the instructions of the Ninth Princess, and if Tianwei was angry, he would not be able to escape the involvement.
"Good, good. Qin Daiyang said three good words in a row, and then squinted his eyes and said, "Then you show me a clear way, who should sit in the position of the prince?"
"If the Qin State wants to send troops to Hangu Pass, and the lost territory in the Belly Pass must be changed. However, the Dharma changer is not a day's work, not a one-day thing. Therefore, if the Qin State wants to be strong, it needs two dynasties and six dynasties. His Majesty is like the sea, and his martial arts are all of the highest quality. It is considered to be the emperor of the world, but if the Qin State wants to be strong, you will not be able to do it for a while!" Shang Ying replied unquestioned, but his words made Qin Daiyang and Lie's hearts tremble slightly.
"Change the law?" Qin Daiyang's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said, "My Qin State is now peaceful inside and outside, why do you need to change the law?"
"Really?" Shang Ying sneered, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the Qin State lives in a remote place and lives far away from the customs. With the current Qin State, it is more than enough to stick to the country. However, it is difficult to regain the lost territory. ”
"Of course, the grass people also know that His Majesty intends to cultivate Wuhou. Although Wuhou is extremely loyal and brave, His Majesty needs to know that the Wang family is now left with only this pair of siblings. If the Wang clan falls, then the mighty army of the generals who are under the power of the Wang clan will have to step through the Hangu Pass again!
"Qin Guoqiang is not in Qin Guoqiang, but the power of the Wang family. This hit the Liang heavily from the Qin State back then. It was a time when the soldiers were in full swing and broke the beam in one fell swoop. However, for more than ten years, the Qin State has not even taken the Hangu Pass. ”
Shang Ying's voice circled the beam three turns, and it was endless. Qin Daiyang fell into deep contemplation.
"The Qin State owes the Wang family too much. Qin Daiyang let out a long sigh.
"Your Majesty, compared with the countries of the Central Plains, the Qin State is not comparable in terms of manpower and material resources. However, over the years, the Qin State has been at war with the Great Liang but has not fallen behind. First, the Ming Jun of the Five Dynasties. Second, Wang's full support. Third, the hearts of the Qin people are one. However, although there was a Ming monarch in the Qin State in recent years, the court situation was very unstable. Moreover, the Wuhou Mansion has also declined. Therefore, the Qin State has not achieved an inch in these years. ”
"The state of Qin is weak. First, people are not happy. Second, talent is not prosperous. Third, the rear is restless. If the Qin State wants to be strong, it must seek change in order to have the strength to dominate the world. ”
Qin Daiyang nodded slightly, what Shang Ying said was very reasonable. The disadvantages of the Qin State are as he said.
"The Qin State wants to change the law, but there is no one in the Qin State. Qin Daiyang was very distressed.
The Qin State is far away from the Guan, and the land is very desolate. Business is not prosperous and has no characteristics. It was also impossible to attract talents from the Central Plains to Qin.
"Cao Min Mao recommended himself, and he is willing to change the law for the Qin State!" Shang Ying suddenly knelt down.
"Hmm, you want to change the law for the Qin State! Then I don't know how you plan to change the law?" Qin Daiyang said curiously.
"Establish the national law first, and correct the national bones. Later, it became an agricultural business, and the country was rich. Then change the military and politics to strengthen the country's prestige. ”
After Shang Yan finished speaking, the hall fell into silence again.
Qin Daiyang slowly got up and came to Shang Ying's side. Reach out and lift it up.
"Sir, if you can change the law for my Qin country. It's my benefactor of the Qin Kingdom!" said Qin Fuhan and bowed deeply to Shang Ying.
"Your Majesty, it's serious!" Shang Ying hurriedly helped Qin Daiyang up and said hurriedly.
Qin Daiyang got up, pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. is dressed in white, don't talk about changing the law, even if you admonish it, there are many inconveniences. In this way, it just so happens that the position of court lieutenant is vacant, and tomorrow I will promote you to court captain. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
