Chapter 509 Employing People's Minds
Gao Sheng thought to himself: "What's wrong with this, why is Zhang Yi suddenly so close to the monarch, it seems that the monarch treats him very politely." It's all incredible! ”
Gao Sheng's surprise is understandable, because just five days ago, he was still arranging Zhang Yi's marriage and marrying Yingxi, in order to open the way for Shi Yi to be in Qin, and it seems that this road will be so difficult and uncertain.
Within five days, when Lu saw Zhang Yi himself, he unknowingly turned into a noble person in the Qin State who was only under the monarch, and no one could believe such a change.
However, this is the unique style of this turbulent era, no formality, no conventionalism, everything is possible, the key is whether a person is outstanding enough, whether he is talented enough!
Qin Jun Yingsi asked Zhu Liji and Zhang Yi to stand on his left and right sides respectively, and then he introduced Zhang Yi to the ministers, who of course sighed in surprise. His Royal Highness looked a little noisy, and Ying Si snorted loudly, and the ministers were frightened in their hearts, and they all stopped saying nothing.
Zhang Yi looked at the shocked ministers, there was neither a smug look nor a smile on his face, he was serious and his expression was very calm. At the same time, when he heard that Ying Si just snorted coldly, the ministers were all solemn, and they couldn't help but admire the strict discipline of the Qin people.
Qin is located in the west, the people are simple, compared with the people of the eastern countries, they may be a little clumsy or lack of scheming, but their morale and discipline are difficult to compare with the people of the east.
Zhang Yi thought to herself: "The Qin State reused the Shang Dynasty and established a new decree, which liberated all the people and created an atmosphere in which everyone competed to make contributions. Coupled with this simple folk customs, the people can be of great use. With these two conditions, it is not surprising that the Qin State dominates the world. ”
Zhang Yi glanced at the disease and found that he was also thoughtful, this wise son was Qin Jun's most powerful assistant. It is really a blessing for the Qin people to have such a virtuous son who does not care about merit, endures humiliation, and is willing to serve the country. However, doesn't the body of the disease also reflect the simple side of the Qin people?
Zhang Yi didn't know what to do, Zhu Liji's heart was actually not calm at this time, and what he was thinking about was the direction of the Qin State in the future. He was relieved that his brother had appointed Zhang Yi. Since the return of his father Qin Xiaogong, his elder brother Yingsi has been on the throne for more than ten years. During this period, the Qin State relied on the remnants of the ancestors to fight everywhere, and indeed made great achievements, greatly expanding its territory.
In particular, the battle against Yiqu eradicated the century-old henchmen of the Qin State in one fell swoop, and since then the tense situation on the northwest border has been greatly eased, and the Qin people have been able to let go and compete with the eastern princes for a while. However, even in Xiping Yiqu, the elder brother Yingsi still relied on the old minister Wei Wei and other right-hand men left by his father.
During his reign, Shang Ying, Wei Wei, and many other brilliant people, whether they were natives of Qin or not, were reused.
Shang Ying was originally a patriot, he also went to many countries to find a way out, of course, this kind of person has the suspicion of both ends, but Qin Xiaogong highly trusted him, entrusted him with state affairs, and the reform of the country was run by Shang Ying. And if he has merit, he will be rewarded, giving him a large piece of mining and the title of Shangjun, which is generally only the son of the Qin State's relatives, and can only get a reward if he has made great contributions to the country.
Zhu Lijian was very sure in his heart: "Because of the open-mindedness and magnanimity of his ancestor Xiaogong, the Qin State was able to stand out from the crowd. However, since Ying Si became the king, he was afraid of foreign people and did not dare to boldly appoint them. Especially in the political wrestling between vertical and horizontal, we lost the opportunity because of the closed mentality. ”
Now, Ying Si finally decided to take a horizontal strategy to the outside world, and he also used a talented foreign talent like Zhang Yi but not from a pure background, which can be regarded as a change of course and returned to the right path opened up by his father Qin Xiaogong.
The first monarch Xiaogong was greatly boosted by the appointment of Shang Ying, and now the elder brother Yingsi has succeeded in his foreign strategy because of the reuse of Zhang Yi, so isn't the Qin State firmly in the position of the hegemon of the world?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, because the laughter was a little abrupt in the silence, which alarmed Ying Si and Zhang Yi and the others. Brother Ying Si tilted his head sideways and glanced at him. He also noticed his gaffe, and he waved his hand to show that he was fine.
At this time, Ying Si had solemnly handed over the seal of the prime minister of Qin to Zhang Yi. The ministers stood under His Highness, and they did not dare to make a sound, lest they would upset the monarch again, but their eyes were wider than the brass bells. Everyone wondered: "The king so easily handed over the position of prime minister under one person and above ten thousand people to this newcomer who has just arrived and has no details!" ”
Some people inevitably think: Win Si must be so anxious about the war in Michi, there is paste in the brain, stupid and stupid, and I am stunned!
Only Gao Sheng smiled with his mouth open in His Highness, and he was really happy and relieved for Zhang Yi. He saw the reaction of the surrounding ministers, and felt that these people were really uninformed. When the ancestor Qin Xiaogong saw Shang Ying, didn't he also be rewarded in a short period of time, and his promotion was as fast as an arrow shot from a full bow?
Gao Sheng thought to himself: "Fortunately, our Qin State has a clear and strict discipline and law, otherwise, these people would not have to cry, make trouble, and hang themselves, or rely on the old and sell the old, and do everything possible to obstruct it in the name of state affairs." ”
Gao Sheng had a smile on his face, and his heart blossomed. At this time, he saw that Zhang Yizheng respectfully received the seal of the prime minister, he bowed to the end, and swore an oath: "Weichen Zhang Yi, thanks to the love of the king, entrusted with a heavy responsibility." In the future, we must be loyal to the state affairs of the Qin State, be diligent and diligent, and do our best! ”
Qin Jun Yingsi listened to Zhang Yi's oath, he nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his head to face His Highness's ministers. He said loudly to the people: "The widow is determined to continue the Ming government of the previous monarch and boldly appoint the talents of other countries. As long as he is a talented person, the widow does not care what he has done in the past, but if a good policy is beneficial to the Qin State, or it is for the Qin State, no matter which country he is, the widow is willing to reward him and entrust him with important tasks. ”
"Today's appointment of Zhang Yi as the prime minister of the Qin State is a beginning. Mr. Zhang Yide's true biography of Guigu is not only a genius in the way of governing the country, but also more resourceful in terms of foreign strategy. The widow gets Mr. Zhang Yi, just like a fish gets water, and a bird gets a forest. Zhang Yi was named prime minister in a few days, and he will be the ruling minister of Qin in the future, and all the ministers should obey Zhang Cheng's orders, as pious as obeying the edict of the widow. ”
"Some of you may not understand this, but this is a decision made by the widow carefully. In the future, in the political affairs of the Qin State, if you do not obey the widow's warning today, the widow will not spare him. ”
Qin Jun Yingsi's words were categorical and sound, and the ministers of His Highness couldn't help but feel terrified. Those high-ranking and powerful ministers who were originally a little unconvinced also said in their hearts: "It seems that I should not provoke right and wrong, at least at this stage, don't go and say bad things about Zhang Yi to the monarch, so as not to provoke Win Si and cause trouble." ”
And Zhang Yi heard Ying Si's announcement, and her heart was full of gratitude and excitement. Grateful because Qin Jun Yingsi said everything and completely let go of himself, an outsider, to take charge of the ruling power of Qin; Excitement is full of anticipation and desire for the upcoming road of Lianheng, if successful, Zhang Yi himself will undoubtedly become a powerful minister on a par with his senior brother Su Qin. The people are extremely powerful, but so, if you talk about the ability to affect the current situation, it is impossible to add more.
After Qin Jun Yingsi announced the appointment of Zhang Yi in front of the ministers, he announced the dissolution of the dynasty in an instant, and the ministers found themselves rushing to the Xianyang Palace in a hurry, just as a foil for Zhang Yi to be the new prime minister of Qin. Everyone couldn't help but feel a little lost in their hearts, feeling that the monarch had too much respect for Zhang Yi, and was still skeptical about the national politics of Qin under Zhang Yi's leadership.
However, the current battle situation in Michi is a big test, and many people want to see how Zhang Yi can manage the tens of thousands of Qin troops led by Sima Cuo to retreat safely and smoothly from Michi City to Hangu Pass.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Gao Sheng did not want to leave immediately, and wanted to congratulate Zhang Yi in person. However, he waited outside the hall for a long time, and he didn't see Zhang Yi come out, and the guards of the forbidden army outside the hall all looked at him, as if wondering: "What does this Gao Sheng doctor want?" ”
Gao Sheng was helpless at this time, left the main hall, and went back to the house. Gao Sheng didn't wait for Zhang Yi because Qin Jun was still unsatisfied, so he left Zhang Yi and wanted to continue to have a deep conversation with Zhang Yi. When the ministers had dispersed, Ying Si was in the main hall and talked with Zhang Yi.
Ying Si asked Zhang Yi and said: "There is one thing that the widow has been thinking about for a long time, and he has not made the most difficult decision. ”
When Zhang Yi heard this, his interest came, and he felt that the question in the monarch's heart must not be very easy, otherwise it would not be possible to worry about it for so long. Zhang Yi replied: "Although Weichen is not omniscient and omnipotent, he is willing to tell the king the truest thoughts in his heart, and ask the king to speak clearly." ”
Ying Si paused, he stared at Zhang Yi, and asked, "Before his death, my father warned the widow to let the widow act in a low-key manner, and there was no need to rush to be the king like the Qi State and the Wei State. Later, when Su Qin entered Qin, the widow also asked his opinion, but he advocated that the widow immediately claim the king. I don't know what you think about this issue, Prime Minister Zhang. ”
Zhang Yi thought for a moment and asked rhetorically: "Then what do you think the vast majority of people in the Qin State think?" What does Jun Shang himself think about this? ”
