Chapter 161: Greeting the Prime Minister (Thanks to the book friend 'Jiang Nannan' for the reward)
Zhao Jia came quietly, left quietly, waved his sleeves, and left some letters.
Zhao Yan sat upright on the high seat, his brows twisted into the word 'Chuan', still digesting the news he got today.
This time, Zhao Yan had the opportunity to keep Zhao Jia in Handan, and then take back the land of Shenqi.
However, after thinking about it, Zhao Yan still didn't do that, but chose to believe in this son who had a long-term gap with him.
This is not only because Zhao Yan knows which is more important, but also because there is a blood relationship between the two.
If Zhao Jia was not Zhao Yan's son, if Zhao Qian hadn't died, Zhao Jia would not have been able to get out of Handan today.
The most important thing is that the pie painted by Zhao Jia is very tempting.
As long as Zhao Yan can sit on the throne, as long as the land of Shenqi still nominally belongs to the Zhao State, no matter how much credit Zhao Jia has made and how many cities he has built for the Zhao State, most of the credit will be recorded in the history books on Zhao Yan.
As for Zhao Jiagong, Zhao Yan will definitely care about the rest of the people.
But now, Zhao Jia is Zhao Yan's only son, and he will inherit the throne sooner or later, so what's the point of having more credit?
As for Zhao Jia's possible rebellion, Zhao Yan was not worried.
"Jia'er must be like Gongzi Wuji, who is famous for success and reputation for failure."
Since Zhao Yan really inherited the throne and drove Lian Po away, he was not so jealous of Zhao Jia.
With such fame, wouldn't Wei Wuji have a chance to rebel and establish himself as king?
Of course, he has the opportunity, and even as long as Wei Wuji is willing, he can definitely replace King Wei, which is why King Wei is so jealous of Wei Wuji.
It's a pity that Wei Wuji is so successful, in addition to relying on Wei as a backer, what is more important is reputation.
Wei Wuji's corporal courtesy, Wei Wuji's gentlemanly style, and Wei Wuji's impatience and righteousness are all important factors that pushed Wei Wuji to the altar.
If Wei Wuji rebelled, even if he eventually became the king of Wei, his reputation would be ruined.
Compared with the throne, Wei Wuji, a person who relies on his reputation to power the world, is more willing to protect his reputation.
This is also why, after Wei Wuji was left out in the cold, he would rather be drunk every day and dream of death, indulge in beauty and finally end up depressed, rather than raise troops to rebel.
In Zhao Yan's opinion, Zhao Jia and Wei Wuji are quite similar.
"Zhao Gan, go and inform all the people in the palace who have seen Gongzi today, if anyone dares to leak the fact that Gongzi came to the palace today, destroy the three clans!"
Looking at Zhao Yan with a murderous look on his face, Zhao Yan couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in his heart, and suddenly agreed.
"After the mouth is sealed, summon Fan Zeng into the palace for an audience!"
Although Zhao Jia left, he left Fan Zeng, a strategist, by Zhao Yan's side, not to monitor, but to plan big things.
Today's Zhao Yan, there are no available people around him, and it is difficult to complete the follow-up matters only by relying on Zhao Yan, Zhao Gan, and the remaining people who are loyal to Zhao Guo.
Leaving Fan Zeng by Zhao Yan's side has become an inevitable choice.
In the study, Zhao Yan looked at the elegant and heroic Fan Zeng, and thought that the other party was an indispensable adviser under his son, but he didn't put on too much of a shelf.
"Mr. can't be known to outsiders now, and he can only be wronged by Mr."
"In the future, Mr. will live in the palace secretly, but there is a big matter in Zhao Kingdom, and the widow will ask Mr. for advice."
Fan Zeng bowed and said: "Being able to share the worries of the king is a matter within Fan Zengfen, and it must be incumbent!" “
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Zhao Yan sat up straight and asked, "Dare to ask sir, how should the widow treat Han Cang and the others in the future?" ”
No one likes betrayal.
For Han Cang, Zhao Yan hated that he couldn't be executed immediately, but Zhao Jia didn't want to startle the snake, so Zhao Yanqiang held back the anger in his heart.
It's just that for the future disposal of Han Cang, Zhao Yan still didn't come up with a charter.
Fan Zeng didn't answer directly, but asked: "The minister took the liberty to ask, if Han Cang did not collude with the Qin State, how would the king treat Han Cang?" ”
Zhao Yan was silent for a long time, and said with some annoyance: "The widow is extremely important to Han Cang, if there is no such thing, he will be appointed as the minister of state in the near future!" ”
Fan Zeng ignored Zhao Yan's annoyance, and instead smiled: "In this case, the king can directly appoint Han Cang as the prime minister, and be as graceful as before." ”
Zhao Yan asked with some astonishment: "Since you know that Han Cang colluded with the Qin State to accept huge bribes, and made him hold the position of Xiangguo, wouldn't it be true that the Zhao State would be fully revealed before the Qin State?" ”
Fan Zeng walked to Zhao Yan's side and whispered in his ear for a long time, and Zhao Yan suddenly realized.
In the main hall of King Zhao's Palace, hundreds of officials gathered.
"The king's edict: Dr. Han Cang Han is loyal and patriotic, has both talent and virtue, and is famous.
The issuance of this edict caused an uproar throughout Handan.
Although Zhao Yan's closeness and importance to Han Cang, many people thought that Han Cang was very likely to become Zhao Zhixiangguo, but they didn't expect it to come so suddenly and so quickly.
Han Cang worshiped the prime minister, and immediately became a big man above 10,000 people in the entire Zhao country, and there were countless people who wanted to cling to and tie up.
Of course, not everyone is like this.
Such as Pang Nuan and others, but they felt that with Pang Nuan's ability, it was difficult to assume the high position of the prime minister, and after learning that Han Cang worshiped the prime minister, they were all resentful.
However, Han Cang's general trend has been achieved, even if Pang Nuan and others are unhappy, they dare not compete with Han Cang at this time.
The entire Han Mansion has also become very lively because of Han Cang's worship of the prime minister.
The number of guests continued for three days, and then gradually decreased, and Hancang also felt extremely tired from receiving an endless stream of guests.
"Xiangguo, someone asks to see you!"
Han Cang sent the last group of people away, looked at the sky that had darkened, and was about to go home to wash up and go to rest, but he heard the voice of the housekeeper.
"It's getting late, gone!"
When Han Cang heard that there were still people coming to visit at this time, he felt the exhaustion of his body, and his face immediately sank.
But the butler whispered, "That man came with a heavy gift of three hundred gold!" ”
Hearing the huge amount of three hundred gold, Han Cang immediately felt shocked in his heart, and his face showed suspicion.
Ancient currencies were more complicated, and gold sometimes referred to gold and sometimes copper coins.
The three hundred gold mentioned here is clearly gold.
Don't think that 300 gold is not much.
Zhao Xiaocheng Wang's birthday, King Yan sent Xiangguo to personally bring gifts to congratulate, and only brought 100 gold, which is the etiquette between countries, it can be seen that 100 gold is not a small amount.
"The Prime Minister personally went to greet him!"
Han Cang thought about it for a while, thinking that he had become a prime minister for a few days, but the envoy of Qin had never come to visit, and he thought of the generosity of the Qin people, and his heart immediately moved slightly.
He didn't dare to slack off, and went out directly to greet the guests in person.
Even if the other party is not an envoy of the Qin State, if he can take out three hundred gold as a meeting gift, it is worth Han Cang to greet him in person.
