Chapter 478: Zhang Yi's Sudden Death
Ding Guo hurriedly spoke: "Your Excellency, Zhang Yi's sudden death is such a thing, how dare the minister joke with the monarch, it is true at this time." Moreover, the minister has already gone to Xianyang to investigate, and a white flag has been hung out in Zhang Yi's mansion, and the king of Qin has also rushed to Zhang Yi's mansion not long ago. ”
Jing Li was stunned, his eyes widened, and he looked at Ding Guo in disbelief and said, "Seriously! ”
Ding Guo nodded solemnly: "That's right!" ”
Jing Carp took a big breath of cold air, and then spit out all the air in his heart, and when he breathed in, the wine woke up, the drunkenness disappeared, his head didn't hurt anymore, and his thoughts were clear.
"It was so sudden, it was unbelievable."
After a pause, Jing Li asked Ding Guo: "Have you ever found out why Zhang Yi died suddenly, and before, Zhang Yi didn't have any news of discomfort." ”
Ding Guo said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the reason for Zhang Yi's sudden death has also come out. According to the news from the subordinates in Zhang Yi's mansion, Zhang Yi has been unwell since more than a year ago, and Zhang Yi has been recuperating for more than a year. It's just that Zhang Yi has been recuperating from illness since the Qin State was besieged more than two years ago, and rarely comes out as a director, so few people know about Zhang Yi's illness.
Then, with the marriage of King Qin and the marriage of Qi and Chu, there were more things in Qin, and Zhang Yi frequently came out as a director. No, when King Qin got married last night, Zhang Yi, as the father of King Qin, drank two more cups, and the next morning, he was found by his subordinates, and Zhang Yi died suddenly in bed. ”
"I see." Jing Li muttered to himself, instantly making up what happened to Zhang Yi.
Two years ago, the countries were divided between the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State, and Zhang Yi was suspicious of the King of Qin because of this, so Zhang Yi said that he was sick and did not go out of the house, and rarely made the King of Qin even more unhappy with him.
Although Zhang Yi is the father of King Qin, in these years, the matter of ministers killing kings and sons killing fathers has been seen many times in history, not to mention that King Qin didn't like Zhang Yi in the first place.
Therefore, all countries, even the Qin State, thought that Zhang Yi's strategy of recuperating from illness was a self-preservation strategy.
But who would have thought that Zhang Yi, who was called sick, would suddenly be really sick when she was pretending to be sick!
Jing Carp was greatly moved.
Then, Jing Li immediately got down from the bed, ordered someone to change his clothes, and ordered: "Zhang Yi's sudden death is such a big thing, as the envoy of the Chu State, this monarch can't help but go to condole." Order, immediately prepare the carriage and horses, and the gentleman will enter the city to mourn Zhang Yi. ”
"No."
Soon after, Jing Li's carriage stopped in front of Zhang Yi's house.
As soon as I got out of the carriage, I saw Zhang Xin, the son of Zhang Yi, wearing plain clothes and a mournful face, greeting the guests in front of the gate.
When Zhang Xin saw Jing Li's arrival, he immediately hurried over to greet him, and then thanked him sadly: "Ling Yin came to visit his father, and he was not very grateful. ”
"Virtuous nephews don't have to be polite."
Seeing Zhang Xin saluting, Jing Li walked quickly in front of Zhang Xin, hurriedly helped Zhang Xin who was saluting, and said with a sad face:
"In the past, when your father was in Yingdu, I met him, and for more than 20 years, not only did he die today, which is really sad. Now that I happened to visit the Qin State, I was in Xianyang, and I had to come to see Wu Xinjun on his last journey. ”
Zhang Xin thanked him: "Thank you, sir." ”
With that, Zhang Xin personally guided Jing Li to the house.
After walking four or five steps, Jing Li suddenly asked, "Virtuous nephew, I don't know if King Qin is still in the mansion?" ”
Zhang Xin shook his head: "The king left not long ago to arrange a funeral for his father. ”
Jing Li nodded when he heard this.
At this time, in the Qin Palace, Qin Wangdang, who returned from Zhang Yi's mansion, had a sad complexion and a heavy face, but through his eyes, he could find that there was a hint of joy in his eyes, two points of relaxation, three emotions, very complicated.
On the opposite side of Qin Wangdang, Zhu Liji's expression was also complicated, and Qin Wangdang's mixed joy and sorrow were different, the joy in his heart far exceeded the sadness.
As for Wei Zhang and Ganmao, they are very heavy at the moment.
The atmosphere in the hall was solemn, and everyone was silent.
After a long time, Qin Wangdang broke the silence and asked: "Father Xiang died suddenly, and the widow's heart is very sad, but Father Xiang is the minister of the widow, the head of the ministers of the Qin State, and has a great influence on the Qin State, I don't know why the Qing Dynasty taught me." ”
When he heard this, he immediately rushed to speak before Wei Zhang and the others spoke: "Great King, the death of Xiangguo is the misfortune of my Qin State, in order to prevent other countries from taking the opportunity to attack Qin, the minister thinks that the candidate for Xiangguo should be re-established immediately, so as to stabilize the Qin State and appease the people's hearts."
In addition, the matter of the alliance between Qin and Chu should have summoned the Chu State Ling Yin to confirm it, and then announced it to various countries to deter the Three Jins.
Finally, not long ago, our Qin State was defeated by Zhao State, but Zhao State ceded the two cities to make peace because of the affairs in the east, in order to avoid Zhao State taking the opportunity to attack, it was necessary to send an important minister to Shangjun to sit in town. ”
On the other side, Wei Zhang said: "Great King, Xiangguo is the head of a hundred officials, and it is indispensable, so it is reasonable to immediately establish another Xiangguo to stabilize people's hearts." ”
Gan Mao finally arched his hand and said: "The king, the minister seconded the proposal." ”
Hearing this, Qin Wang Dang nodded.
Then, Qin Wangdang's gaze swept over the faces of the three people in front of him one by one.
Seeing that King Qin was the first to look at him, his face remained unchanged, but he was confident in his heart, during the period when Zhang Yi said that he was sick, King Qin consulted with him when he had something, and the affairs in the country were also handled by him. Even if King Qin's gaze left him, there was not much panic.
When Qin Wangdang's gaze shifted from Zhu Liji's body to Wei Zhang, Wei Zhang noticed Qin Wang's gaze, and his breath was a little scattered, and his heart was nervous.
In terms of qualifications and status, Wei Zhang has the possibility of replacing Zhang Yi Xiangguo.
Although King Qin looked at Zhu Li Disease first, although King Qin was also closer to Zhu Li Disease, Wei Zhang felt that Zhu Li Disease had a great shortcoming, so he was King Qin's uncle.
If Zhu Li Ji holds the position of Xiangguo, I am afraid that no one in the Qin State will be able to resist Zhu Li Ji.
Thinking about it, Wei Zhang gradually had some expectations in his heart.
It's a pity that at this time, King Qin's gaze left him again and drifted to Gan Mao on the side.
Wei Zhang felt a little lost in his heart.
He was also aware of King Qin's gaze, but Gan Mao's heart was calm and there was no change.
King Qin looked at the three of them all over again, then retracted his gaze and smiled: "What the three virtuous kings said is very true, the position of Xiangguo really cannot be vacant, and the candidate should be determined immediately." ”
Saying that, Qin Wangdang looked directly at Zhu Li and said: "Uncle Wang, since your father was recuperating two years ago, you have begun to temporarily handle state affairs on behalf of your father, and you are a real and nameless Xiangguo. Now that Xiang's father has passed away suddenly, then ask Uncle Wang to be a veritable Xiangguo and continue to assist the widow. ”
When he heard this, he bowed with great joy and said: "Thank you for the king's love, and you will live up to the king's trust, and be loyal to the state to repay the king's kindness." ”
Qin Wangdang nodded: "Okay, Xiangguo, please get up." ”
"King Xie."
