Chapter 213: Worth doubled in one day
Yan Hou listened, his eyes lit up, he had heard Su Qin say before, but he wanted to join forces to fight against Qin, and it had little to do with him, and he listened carefully again today, and found that Hezong really had a beneficial side to Yan Guo.
Therefore, Yan Hou said to Su Qin: "In this way, you already have a chance to win." Although the country of widows is small, why not spare a name, I don't know what name you want? ”
The conversation between Su Qin and Zhidao entered the substantive issue, and Yan Hou might retreat at this joint. But since you are waiting for such a good opportunity, what about fighting once!
Su Qin's heart was horizontal and his courage was strong, so he bravely said his request, he said: "Weichen hopes that the king can make me the prime minister, but I, the prime minister, ignore the practice of the imperial court, but specifically negotiate peace with other countries, which is equivalent to a foreign minister." ”
Su Qin opened his mouth to be the prime minister, which really frightened Yan Hou, this position is second only to the monarch's important position. When Yan Hou was still pondering and hesitating, Su Qin hurriedly added: "Of course, Weichen knows that Lu Daocheng has high power, but what the minister wants is not real power, but fame. ”
He dispelled Yan Hou's concerns and said: "The reason why Weichen wants this extremely high name is also to be able to attract the attention of neighboring countries, otherwise, if Yan Guo sent only a doctor, how could Zhao and Qi send people at the level of prime ministers to negotiate peace." ”
He made a heart-wrenching regret that he had fallen short, and said in an accentuated tone: "In that case, the result will only be in vain." Think twice. ”
After hearing this, Yan Hou felt that what Su Qin said was reasonable, the title of the prime minister was just an empty name, and if it was really according to what Su Qin said, it would not affect the great politics of Yan State.
However, if what Su Qin said can be realized, it will really be exchanged for peace with Zhao and Qi, which can be regarded as a great benefit. After weighing it, Yan Hou felt that this deal was quite cost-effective.
Yan Hou put down the book in his hand, clasped his hands tightly, and rarely showed a determined demeanor. He made up his mind and said:
"Since you can go to Zhao and Qi to fight for peace for the widows, why should the widows care about the title of a prime minister, I will send someone to engrave a seal and give it to you. I wonder how you still want the widow to fund you? ”
Su Qin showed a look of sincere fear at this time, bowed deeply, and then saluted, and said: "Weichen doesn't need too much funding from the king, just a carriage that matches the prime minister's identity." The reason why Weichen is willing to take the risk of going to other countries is just because he sees that the monarch is worried about the country and is determined to share the worries of the monarch. ”
Seeing Su Qin's expression and listening to his words again, Yan Hou was a little moved in his heart, and he couldn't stop nodding his head to express his appreciation for Su Qin's sincere loyalty.
Su Qin then said: "Wechen still has the last request, Wechen hopes that the monarch can hold a canonization ceremony in the main hall to announce your decision to the people of the world, so that Wechen can negotiate with neighboring countries more confidently." The reason why Weichen has this request is really for the sake of Yan Guo, and this is Weichen's most reluctant wish, and there is nothing else to ask for. ”
When Yan Hou heard this, he felt that you Su Qin really kicked your nose in the face, endlessly. However, he thought about it: he had already promised to engrave the seal to him, so why bother with him at a ceremony? So, Yan Hou also nodded in agreement. He instructed the eunuchs around him to immediately go to the house of Tang Qi, tell him his decision, let him record it, and start to handle it.
Su Qin said goodbye to Yanhou and left the palace with joy and surprise. When he returned to his office, he could no longer suppress the smug heart of the spring breeze, thinking about the setbacks he had experienced before, and then thinking about the moment when he raised his eyebrows today, he was so excited that he slapped his palm on the several cases in front of him, and he was stunned to crack a few cases made of wood. His palms suddenly became red and swollen.
The next morning, Yan Hou held a grand ceremony in the main hall of the palace, all the ministers heard that Yan Hou wanted to pay respects, they all thought that Yan Hou wanted to appoint a very prestigious person from Yan Guo as prime minister, but he didn't expect the ceremony to begin, but Su Qin stood up from among the courtiers and took over the seal in Yan Hou's hand, and everyone was dumbfounded.
After a ceremony to pay homage to the prime minister, with the gradual spread of the news, Su Qin suddenly became famous in Yan and other vassal states, and people were rumoring about his magic, saying that he was the king of a country overnight, relying on his three-inch tongue, and he was the prime minister in white, and he was really the first person to debate today.
Yan Hou himself didn't care much about Su Qin's rumors, he didn't think about it at all, but Su Qin himself did it on purpose, he could have quietly taken the seal given to him by Yan Hou and went to neighboring countries to lobby, but that situation was far from his imagination, far from the effect he wanted.
Now that Yanhou has ascended to the palace to pay homage to the prime minister, the situation has changed from peak to loop and vicissitudes of life, and since then, Su Qin is no longer the person who has been discriminated against and cold-eyed, but has become a person who has to be sideways.
On the day of Su Qin's visit, when he returned to Zixi Garden, Ning Jun, Lu Li, Wu Jing and other good friends, as well as the servants in Zixi Garden, etc., were waiting at the door to greet him.
Su Qin rode the carriage of the prime minister given to him by Yanhou, passed through the streets of Jidu in a beautiful manner, and stopped at the gate of Zixi Garden steadily, Su Qin got out of the car, and everyone stepped forward to salute, Su Qin didn't feel that his eyebrows were smiling, his heart was full of joy, and after he returned the salute to everyone, he entered the garden with everyone.
Su Qin ordered everyone to indulge in drinking in the garden, so everyone set up a banquet with wine, staggered and carnivaled. In the evening, Su Qin asked Ning Jun to go to the palace to quietly greet Yingyi, and Ning Jun nodded and agreed.
Ning Jun went to the Empress Dowager's palace to ask to see Ying Yi, at this time she was also waiting for Su Qin's news, when she went to the palace in the morning to pay respects, Ying Yi was inconvenient to attend, but she was worried, so she sent the palace maids to inquire about the details, and reported the progress of the ceremony to herself at any time.
When the ceremony was successfully over, Ying Yi couldn't help but clap her hands, she slapped twice, and soon realized her gaffe and stuck out her tongue in fright.
Ying Yi looked at her side at this time, but fortunately, she only had the confidant maid brought from the Qin State. Ying Yi looked at Hua Wan and the others, and suddenly remembered what Su Qin had told her about asking Liu Ping and Xiang Rong to help in Zixi Garden.
She thought: "Without further ado, Su Qin is there when he needs people, so it's better to hurry up and handle it." ”
Yingyi sent Ren Jiao and Zhu Qiong, two palace maids, and asked them to hold the queen mother's palace token, and immediately go out of the palace to find Liu Ping and Xiang Rong, so that they could immediately resign from their old positions and enter the palace to see the queen mother on the grounds that the queen mother had a life.
