Chapter 142: The Emperor's Technique, Cutting Power and Demotion
Ying Zheng stood in the pavilion of the Xianyang Palace Viewing Pavilion, looking at the huge school field of Xianyang Palace, and the busy figures of the dense palace maids and eunuchs, his eyes showed a strange light.
In the past year, he has completely stabilized the ninefold immortal golden body of the divine body, but he still knows nothing about the divine soul realm, and he has not been able to touch the threshold of the soul. I've tried to sense the existence of the soul a few times, but I've never had a clue.
Helplessly, he had already been out of the customs, but he had traveled all over the Great Qin world, trying to break through the shackles of his state of mind. When encountering a major incident, he will rush back to Xianyang as soon as possible and secretly deal with military affairs.
At his current speed, he can circle the earth in one second, and naturally there is no obstacle. During this time, Fusu has been praying honestly in the ancestral temple of the Ying family, and he has not seen anyone, which makes Ying Zheng amazed.
However, he didn't spend too much energy, in the face of absolute strength, no matter whether Fusu is true benevolence and filial piety, or fake compassion, as long as he has maintained his peak combat power, no one can shake his power in Daqin.
Thinking of Li Si, the corners of Ying Zheng's mouth hung with a slight arc, looking unfathomable. Then he said lightly, "Who is closest to Xianyang?"
"Returning to His Majesty, Han Xin, the general of the expedition to the west, has entered the territory of Longxi, and believes that the expedition to the west will be the first to arrive in Xianyang and win the title of the first army. Li Changqing, who was respectfully standing behind Ying Zheng, also said with a smile on his face.
"Hmm. Ying Zheng nodded, smiled without saying a word, turned around and looked at Li Changqing, and then suddenly said, "Changqing, is the acting prime minister doing it well?"
Looking at His Majesty's smiling expression and meaningful words, Li Changqing instantly understood the meaning of it, and immediately smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, the minister is not a talent, he is walking on thin ice all day long, trembling, and please ask His Majesty to find another great sage as soon as possible, and the heart that the minister has been carrying all day long can rest assured." ”
"Oh?" Ying Zheng looked surprised, and then said with a smile, "Don't you want to be the prime minister?" He shook his head and sighed, regretful.
When Li Changqing heard this, a trace of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he chuckled in his heart. He understood that his power was too great, and His Majesty was suspicious of him. This is understandable, the art of the emperor, selflessness at all.
"The minister is frightened, thanks to His Majesty's wrong love, but the minister has self-knowledge and reluctantly becomes the prime minister, which will only make Daqin ashamed, unable to share his worries for His Majesty, and the minister is ashamed. Li Changqing said cautiously, at this moment he was walking on thin ice.
"Well, since you say that yourself, I won't embarrass you. But I've worked hard for you in the near future, continue to serve as prime minister temporarily, and I will let you off this burden after a while. Ying Zheng's face was full of regret, but his tone revealed that there was no doubt.
"The minister is grateful to His Majesty, and he should do his best to share his worries for the time being. Li Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had really unloaded a thousand pounds of burden.
"By the way, Changqing, what is the position of Deng Dequan, the first talent in the world's first literary meeting?" asked Ying Zheng with a questioning look on his face.
Li Changqing looked at Ying Zheng with a confused look, and his heart was at a loss. Is His Majesty forgetful? The world's first Wenwu Conference finals were all examined by His Majesty, and Deng Dequan was also appointed by His Majesty to be the middle of the imperial history, and he was tightly under him.
There was a faint feeling of bad feeling in his heart, but he didn't dare to hesitate, he thought too much about the details, and when His Majesty asked, he could only answer truthfully, "Returning to Your Majesty, Deng Dequan is in the Imperial History Supervision Department and serves as the Imperial History Zhongcheng. ”
"Oh, I remembered. Ying Zheng showed a sudden realization, then smiled, and continued, "Changqing, what do you think of Deng Dequan's performance?"
"Under His Majesty, the performance of the Imperial History Zhongcheng was excellent, especially in the elimination of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms Restoration, his performance was remarkable. It is the dragon among the people, His Majesty is sage, discerning and admiring. Li Changqing did not hesitate to praise, although his words were a bit exaggerated, but Deng Dequan's performance was indeed remarkable. But this Imperial History Zhongcheng was appointed by His Majesty, even if he wanted to find fault, he didn't dare to say it, otherwise wouldn't it be a slap in the face of His Majesty?
"I am very relieved, Changqing! You have been busy with me all these years, and you must be very tired from holding two important positions. Ying Zheng said with some emotion, looking heartbroken.
"Your Majesty's Minister...... No...... The minister was indeed tired. Li Changqing subconsciously wanted to say that he was energetic and had no problems, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly woke up and immediately changed his words.
"It's all because I don't know how to understand the courtiers, Changqing don't complain about me, as the king of Great Qin, everything I do is for Great Qin, for the sake of the world. Ying Zheng's eyes showed a strange light, and he said suddenly.
When Li Changqing heard this, his heart was bitter, and he knew that His Majesty had something to say, a pun. He understands that everything His Majesty does is to put the country first. He knew very well that he was afraid that in the study under His Majesty, the secret music for impeaching him could be piled up into a small mountain.
Over the years, he has been in the position of supervision, patrolling the heavens and supervising the world, and almost offended the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Of course, this is only a small part of the reason, and with His Majesty's efforts to protect him, no one can shake his position.
But it is precisely because of his iron-faced selflessness and strict law enforcement that his majesty has been known to everyone, and he has been in the limelight for a while. As the so-called Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, he is high in the imperial court Jiuqing Imperial Doctor, and holds the World Supervision Department. Moreover, he also served as the head of the intelligence department of the Black Nightmare Army, which was a very dangerous signal for the king.
"Minister...... Respectful...... Listen to Your Majesty...... The holy metaphor ......" Li Changqing wanted to understand the key, and his expression was a little gloomy for a moment, he no longer had the demeanor of the past, he was full of spirit, and the momentum of life was proud, he seemed to have wasted a lot of strength to say these words.
"I cherish Aiqing's body, and in the future, Li Aiqing will retreat into the background, step down from the post of Imperial Doctor, and take charge of the Intelligence Department of the Black Nightmare Army with peace of mind, and secretly collect information from all over the world for me. Ying Zheng said solemnly, and sighed slightly in his heart. Li Changqing is indeed a talent, but he doesn't know the way of a minister, he really doesn't understand......
"Your Majesty's grace is vast, and the minister is grateful. Li Changqing immediately received the decree of thanksgiving, although he was cut and demoted, even if he was bitter in his heart, he also wanted to receive the decree of thanks.
Seeing Li Changqing's dejected appearance, Ying Zheng shook his head, walked in front of him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Changqing, look farther, don't be bound to this small place." With that, he pointed to the sky, and the meaning was intriguing.
Li Changqing was stunned at first, and then followed Ying Zheng's finger and looked at the sky. After a while, his face showed a look of shame and said, "The minister is ashamed, His Majesty is far-sighted, and the minister is beyond his reach." ”
"Well, they are here, come with me to the outside of the city to greet the fierce general of Daqin!" Ying Zheng smiled slightly, he had been paying attention to the movements of Xianyang City within a radius of a hundred miles, calculating the speed of the march, Han Xin had already arrived in Xianyang and was about to enter the city.
