Xianyang Palace.

Ying Zheng wore a crown on his head, hung a long sword on his body, and slowly came to the palace of King Qin under the drink of the chief of the chamberlain.

The ministers all bowed their heads, and they didn't dare to raise their heads.

The current king is already in power.

After Ying Zheng sat down, he looked around, except for the people in the clan, there were many new faces in the rest of the ministers, and these people all bowed their heads submissively.

Ying Zheng inquired about the assembly of the army, and Su Zheng came one by one.

At most, half a month can be used to assemble a large army and crusade against the rebellion.

Subsequently, Ying Zheng continued: "The prime minister of the country is the responsibility of the society, and after careful consideration, there have been candidates. ”

Everyone was in one place.

The ministers of the clan were immediately eager.

Ying Zheng glanced at them coldly, and ordered Zhao Gao to read it, Zhao Gao took a step forward and said: "Qin Wang Zhao, let the imperial historian Wang Juan as the left prime minister, the Shaofu Feng Quji as the imperial historian, the general Su Zai as the national captain, the general, and the other three jointly assist the country, and in the future, all government decrees will be implemented, and the prime minister and the national lieutenant will be jointly signed." ”

There was a lot of discussion in the court.

The faces of the ministers of the clan were all white, that is to say, the three most important positions in the court were all held by the king, and it was the king and not the clan.

Someone wanted to say it on the head, but when he saw Yingzheng's face was frosty, he swallowed the words stiffly.

Wang Juan is already old, and he is even more flattered at this time, he can't imagine that the prime minister actually fell on him, and the imperial historian is nominally equal to one of the three dukes, but before the unification of the Qin State, the power is not too big.

At this time, Wang Juan and Feng Quji, and Su Zheng couldn't help but stand up immediately and thank them loudly.

As for Su Zheng becoming a national lieutenant, this is something that others expected and expected.

The state lieutenant was the highest official position among the military attaches of the Qin state.

That is, above the general, but not necessarily someone will be in charge, just like the right prime minister.

But before, Lü Buwei controlled the government, the right prime minister was empty, and so was the national lieutenant, why did such a thing happen, it was because the legal system of the Qin State was the prime minister to lead the military power, so even if Su Zheng was a general, he would be held hostage by Lu Buwei, but the national lieutenant was different, the national lieutenant and the left prime minister were the same, and they were both subject to the right prime minister.

It's just that the focus is on the military, and he can make his own decisions, and he is not held hostage by the left prime minister.

The highest sergeant chief of the Qin State before King Qin Zhao was called 'Da Liang Zao'.

It wasn't until Qin used "Xiangguo" to regent the military and political power, and no longer set up Daliangzao, only using him as a title, so that the former Daliangzao's subordinate military attache "Guowei" became the actual supreme military commander.

When Su Zai heard this, he knew that this was Yingzheng restarting the national lieutenant in order to weaken the influence of the prime minister, and as for the right prime minister, it was temporarily dispensable.

Su Zai's appointment as a lieutenant and general undoubtedly made Wang Yugong and others overjoyed.

It means that from this moment on, the military generals will no longer be controlled by the prime minister.

Everything can be reported to the national lieutenant.

It can be described as a real power.

However, for the courtiers, some were undoubtedly relieved, after all, if they did this, there would never be such a thing as Lu Buwei again.

As for the juxtaposition of the national lieutenant and the left prime minister, they both have the right to restrain each other.

But this is on the surface, and what is inside is that Ying Zheng did this, which was equivalent to using the national lieutenant to divide the rights of the left prime minister, and he and the national lieutenant shared the monarchical power.

It can be seen that Su Zheng is now the first person under King Qin. Although the rights are not as good as Lü Buwei at the beginning, the difference is that he is deeply favored by Jun.

Lü Buwei's power comes from the former king Tuogu, but the national lieutenant is deeply trusted by the pro-government Qin Wangzheng, which is the difference.

Ying Zheng said: "Wanger and the other three live up to the trust of the widow. ”

The three of them said one after another: "The ministers will definitely go to the soup." ”

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction, the courtiers on the side of the clan touched Ying Zheng's cold gaze at this time, because now Cheng Jiao, Ying He is in rebellion, and they want to kill Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng, and no one dares to touch the king's brow at this juncture.

Pang Yi, as Zongzheng, at this time, also had to speak, stepped forward and said: "King, Lü Buwei deceived the king and framed the rebellion of Chang'an Jun. ”

With Pang Yi's words, many people spoke out in response.

The people of the Zong clan hated Lu Buwei so much, and the position of prime minister was gone.

It is even more impossible for the king to give the right prime minister to the clan.

The right prime minister is also equivalent to the prime minister.

Ying Zheng nodded, looked at Wang Juan and Su Zheng and said, "How does the prime minister think it should be punished?" ”

As the newly appointed prime minister, Wang Juan is old, but he is not stupid, why did the king ask him? Isn't it that he was all towards the king before?

Obviously, the king was not ready to kill Lü Buwei.

Wang Juan did not hesitate, and said: "The old minister thinks that Lü Buwei assisted the first king, and has made great contributions to the country, and Chang Yu and other confessions, although Lü Buwei has a great fault, but the sin is not to death, the so-called prestige is not nothing, and it is not enough to be dedicated, the more prestige, the more the people do not use it, even so, the king might as well order him to return to his fiefdom of Luoyang, live for the rest of his life, show the king's grace and power, and will definitely Weijiahai in the people." ”

Wang Juan's words can be said to be beyond everyone's expectations.

Lu Buwei harmed Chang'anjun, this is not enough to kill?

Suddenly, the people of the clan jumped out one by one, accusing Wang Juan of making wild remarks and containing evil intentions.

Yingzheng was furious, and patted the case: "Who dares to speak disrespectfully to the prime minister, don't blame the widow for being ruthless, what the prime minister said is according to the law, Lu Buwei has had, the widow cut his appearance, dismissed his lord, and was not allowed to enter Xianyang for life. Could it be that the victory and rebellion were instigated by Lü Buwei? The widow's brother Wang was used by Yinghe and others, was it also instigated by Lü Buwei? ”

The ministers of the clan did not dare to speak out.

Wang Juan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the bet was right.

Ying Zheng's words also gave the clan steps down, Chang Anjun was instigated, which made people have to admire Ying Zheng's thoughts, but what was said in the mouth of the king was won and instigated, which made some people bitter.

Anyway, the rebellion was real.

They were all afraid that if they continued to talk, the king would take him down directly.

The Tiger Ben Army in the palace has expanded, and now, they are all waiting outside the palace.

They all saw that Yingzheng was not prepared to kill Lü Buwei, and he didn't mention Lü Buwei's corruption of power at all, and sent him back to the fiefdom, which was equivalent to not even cutting the title.

That's 100,000 households, and they have everything except no power.

How much tax is there in a year for 100,000 households?

Ying Zheng said: "Does the national lieutenant think what the prime minister said is appropriate?" ”

Su Zai stepped forward and said: "Lu Buwei just uses people inappropriately, according to the law, he should sit together, remember his great contribution to the country, and return to the fiefdom, Fang Xian is the king of Longen, and the majesty is like the sea." ”

"Report !!"

The hurried footsteps of a messenger came from outside the hall, and soon they came to the top of the main hall.

"Great King, the nations sent envoys to the outside of Xianyang Palace, saying, saying that they would issue a war letter!"

When Ying Zheng heard this, his eyes suddenly squinted a line.

Su Zheng was also silent, it was time to come, as soon as Chang'an Jun rebelled, he immediately joined in.

"The nations have joined together? This, when is this! ”

He said fairly: "King, this is Chang'an Jun's rebellion against the party, and the countries have already planned it, and at the time of the rebellion, they will join forces in the land of the party and break the north and south of my Qin country." ”

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said coldly: "Xuan! ”

Soon, I saw a man being ushered in.

At this time, the ministers were quiet.

The person who came saluted the head of Yingzheng and said: "Come and meet the king of Qin, please ask the king of Qin to receive the war letter!" ”

After speaking, he held the bamboo slip in his hand with both hands, and Ying Zheng ordered Zhao Gao to lead it, and he didn't reply, and his eyes didn't leave the messenger in front of him for a moment.

Although the envoy lowered his head, he also felt a great pressure.

Ying Zheng opened the war book, and when he looked at it, Ying Zheng suddenly smiled and said: "Oh, the war book of the nations is bold, the countries have a kind, few people admire, such a warm feeling, the Qin State, will not be disappointed." ”

When the envoy heard this, he saw that the King of Qin had already expressed his attitude, so he stopped talking nonsense, and saluted: "Then I will say goodbye." ”

Su Zheng suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "The messenger stays." ”

Only then did the envoy pay attention to Su Zheng, standing in the first place, and it was the military attache camp, so there was no doubt about his identity, and said: "Since the war book has been issued, the general does not need to say much." ”

Su Zheng asked: "Ben Hou just asked, since you want to attack my Qin State together, you can directly send troops, why do you still have to submit a war letter?" ”

The messenger arrived: "I am only under orders, and act according to the etiquette of the week!" ”

Su Zai smiled: "Zhou Li? Is there still a weekly rite in the eyes of the nations? According to Ben Hou's opinion, the countries are doing this just to let everyone in the world know that there are still many people who are not afraid of death in you and other countries, and a country does not dare to face our Qin State and pull the countries to die together. ”

Time.

The generals in the court burst out laughing.

The envoy said with a little embarrassment: "The general's words are so mocking of my countries, could it be that the Qin State only has the benefit of lips and tongues?" ”

Su Zai said: "Whether it's the benefit of the tongue or the benefit of the sword, Ben Hou is just wondering that you are waiting for the countries to attack, write a war letter, and perform a weekly salute, do you also want to force me Qin to make an appointment with your countries, set a good location, and win or lose?" ”

When the envoy heard this, he asked, "What does the general mean by this?" ”

Su Zai said with a smile: "The countries just think that they have many people to show the public, and they are not relentless in our Qin country, so they have issued this war book for the people of the world to see, and they think that they have the chance to win, right?" In this case, after you return to China, you will tell you about the appointment of Ben Hou for you, and Ben Hou will also perform the weekly ceremony, and meet with the generals of the countries at Hangu Pass to discuss the matter of merit and victory, how about the victory or defeat in a battle? ”

Su Zheng's consciousness was unexpected, and everyone would understand.

Everyone is calling, what else are you talking about?

Is it really the same as in the Zhou period, everyone made an appointment with a place, saluted each other, and then began to fight, and the loser finished saluting, picked up the corpses of his comrades and left? I don't like this now.

Even the envoy didn't know what medicine Su Zheng was selling!

Su Zai said: "Don't the nations dare? The soldiers and horses of all countries are afraid of the soldiers of Qin and one country, so what do you have to do here! ”

The envoy flicked his sleeves and said, "I will definitely bring back the meaning of the national captain." ”

Only Yingzheng knows that Su Zheng must have a deep meaning in doing this!
