Chapter 723: The Sword Unsheathed

When the ministers heard this, they were all surprised. Especially the minister who lent money to the king of Chu before, he was already smiling from ear to ear at the moment, ten years ago, he just wanted to show loyalty to the king of Chu's speculative move, but he didn't want to, ten years later, not only the principal was recovered, but also the interest was received.

Although this interest rate is much lower than the interest rate of usury, it is a wealth of hundreds or even thousands of gold, and ordinary transactions often do not necessarily make such huge profits for decades.

What's more...

At this time, many people remembered that Ejun, who was still in Yan Kingdom and had not returned, had borrowed 10,000 gold in one go. Ten years have passed, and the income of ten thousand gold, in addition to attacking the city and destroying the country, what can get such a benefit?

Thinking about it, many people regret it in their hearts, knowing that today, they would not have borrowed so little last time.

Some people even lamented that they were just slow to start at the time, but as a result, it was too late.

Just when the ministers were thinking about it, as Xiong Huai announced all these three things, the entire hall swept away the depressing atmosphere not long ago, and the atmosphere in the hall seemed to be much lighter.

At this moment, the ministers sang praises again.

Xiong Huai listened to the flattery of the ministers, smiled, and then spoke: "The three things have been completed, do you have something important to play?" ”

When Qu Yuan heard this, he immediately came out and said: "King, if the ministers hear that they have a fault, they will be rewarded, and if they have a fault, they will be punished. However, in the face of mistakes, we must not take precautions, such as some county Yin and feudal monarchs who are opportunistic from it, which must also be guarded against.

Therefore, the minister believed that in order to prevent the same thing from happening again in various places, it was necessary to strengthen control in various places. ”

As he spoke, Qu Yuan bowed his head, then got up and said: "Yes, the minister suggested that subordinate officials, county magistrates, county Yin and county lieutenants be set up in each county, all of which will be appointed and dismissed by the king himself, so as to assist the county Yin in governing the place."

In addition, Ling Yin was dispatched to the feudal monarchs in various places, one to assist the feudal monarchs in various places to govern the localities, strengthen the connection between the people in various places and the king, so that the people could also bathe in the king's grace. The second is to teach the feudal monarchs, so that the feudal monarchs everywhere can go on the right path, so as not to lead the feudal monarchs astray again into the astray path of Yan Lingjun and others. ”

As soon as Qu Yuan's voice fell, there was a sudden sound of inhalation in the hall, and it was not enough to send subordinate officials to the counties, but also to send Ling Yin to the feudal monarch.

This...

At this moment, especially those feudal monarchs, looking at Qu Yuan, there was fire in their eyes, and they wanted to eat him alive.

More than ten years ago, it was Qu Yuan who bewitched the king of Chu and took back all the fiefs of more than two generations of feudal monarchs, saying that he wanted to implement the national law, and the gentleman's Ze would be beheaded in two lifetimes.

Fortunately, at that time, the country was boiling, and the anger in the country was unbearable, so the king of Chu was gone.

Now, Qu Yuan has been in Xiangyang for a few years, and once he returns to the court, he has to be troubled again!

It's just that this kind of high-sounding thing, as a passive endurance, they can't take the initiative to oppose it.

Thinking about it, the anger in his eyes seemed to be about to erupt, staring at Qu Yuan on one side, and on the other hand, the afterglow of his eyes fell on the King of Chu, hoping that the King of Chu would refuse this ridiculous proposal.

At this time, Xiong Huai groaned in the shock of the ministers, and nodded before the minister spoke: "Yes, now when the county governors take office, they often bring their subordinates to take office. In this way, every time each county changes the county Yin, it will cause chaos in the county. If the county officials are all set up by the state, even if the county officials are replaced, as long as the county officials are still there, the chaos caused by the replacement can be avoided, and few people think that this matter is feasible. ”

After speaking, Xiong Huai directly set his eyes on Jing Cui and said: "Ling Yin, not long after, the talents recommended to Yingdu from all over the country will arrive in Yingdu, and then please ask Ling Yin to personally preside over the assessment, choose the best place to fill the place, and hope that Ling Yin will use it, and the county Yin and the subordinate officials will be able to appoint them." ”

When Jing Cui heard this, he immediately responded: "Only! ”

With Jing Cui's answer, some of the ministers who were still planning to dissuade the King of Chu immediately closed their mouths.

The reason is that they remembered the edict of the king of Chu ten days ago, asking all localities to recommend talents.

At that time, they thought that the king of Chu was just thirsty for talent, so he forced all localities to recommend talents.

Now that I think about it, it turns out that ten days ago, the king of Chu had already made up his mind to set up subordinate officials in each county, perhaps because there was no one available, so that all places recommended virtuous people.

Thinking of this, the ministers already knew that the king of Chu had made up his mind, and at this time, I am afraid that it would be difficult to shake the determination of the king of Chu in a short period of time, and forcibly admonishing him would undoubtedly anger the king of Chu.

At this time, the ministers seemed to smell the blood in the air again, and suddenly felt cold.

And the feudal monarchs in various places have recalled at this time that the day when the king of Chu issued the edict, it seems that Qu Yuan reported to the king of Chu, and after Xijun and others fled, the king of Chu summoned Ling Yin and others before issuing the edict.

At that time, everyone thought that the king of Chu was discussing a crusade against Xijun and others.

Now it seems that Qu Yuan not only spoke ill of Xijun and others in front of the King of Chu at that time, causing the King of Chu to let Gongsun Yan send troops to attack the five Xijun. Moreover, I am afraid that at that time, there was also slander in front of the king of Chu, so that the king of Chu was angry with the county Yin and the feudal monarchs in various places.

It's just that Ling Yin, Zhu Guo and others, who met the king that day, did not have the slightest rumor. At this moment, everyone suddenly heard about this, and they couldn't open their mouths to refute it.

Thinking about it, whether it was the feudal monarch of Jianghan Xincun or the feudal monarch of Jianghuai, they all looked at Jingcui and Zhaoju, hoping that they could stop the king of Chu.

As a result, they were all disappointed.

At this moment, whether it was Jingcui or Zhaoju, they all knelt quietly on the seat, without saying a word, without any opposition, as if they were outsiders.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts were cold.

At this time, Xiong Huai spoke again: "Nowadays, if there is no edict, almost only when the emperor worships the heavens and ancestors in October every year, he will come to Yingdu, and if the feudal monarch is old, he will send the prince to come." In this way, you will only see the widow once a year, and it is inevitable that you will be a little estranged.

And the princes of the feudal lords in various places, when the monarchs are strong, nine times out of ten they will not come to Yingdu, and the widows want to see the princes, and perhaps when the princes ascend the throne in the future, this will inevitably make the princes and the widows have weak feelings.

Therefore, in order to strengthen the relationship between the widow and the kings, and in order to prevent some feudal lords from going astray, the widows decided..."

At this time, Xiong Huai looked at the feudal monarchs, paused word by word, and said undoubtedly: "The widow has decided to arrange meritocracy for Zhuqing to be Ling Yin in the future, and I hope that all the monarchs will be exempted and serve the country together with Ling Yin." ”

When all the feudal monarchs heard this, they raised their heads one after another, looked at the king of Chu in horror, and were silent for a long time.

The king of Chu did not consult with the ministers in the court meeting, not only did he not ask, but also did not give the ministers a chance to object, so he agreed.

The king of Chu was unusual, so arbitrary.

At this moment, from the abnormality of the King of Chu, the ministers felt a chill and fear from the heart.
