Chapter 4 The Prime Minister and the Lieutenant, the Open Struggle and the Secret Fight

Looking at Bai Yan who was striding away, Jiang Ji sat safely, at this moment the qi and blood in his body had recovered to the level of his original body, and his injuries were much better, and the next thing was to wait until the injuries healed, and then he began to test many ideas in his mind.

"Under Bai Yan's actions, this Yangzhai City should be able to live in peace, and it can also buy me a stable time, and strive to make progress during this time. ”

Jiang Ji had already told Bai Yan everything about the matter just now, and he didn't even miss the slightest detail, and then let him deal with this matter on his own.

Although he didn't know what means Bai Yan would use to deal with this matter, judging from the impression in the memory of the original body and the conversation just now, he acted strategically and then moved, and then dealt a thunderous blow to his opponent.

In this way, the various forces in this Yangzhai City will inevitably be deterred, and they will naturally reduce all kinds of actions, which is the biggest benefit for Jiang Ji.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of State and the Lieutenant ask for a meeting. ”

An attendant walked into the dormitory in small steps and knelt on the ground.

The news is quite well-informed, I just met Bai Yan, and these two people came to the door, this Qin Palace is really a sieve.

"Let them in. ”

"No. ”

The attendant took the order and departed.

It stands to reason that the two should be in the main hall, but Jiang Ji is now "seriously injured", so it is better to meet them in the dormitory.

In order to make his state more in line with their imagination, Jiang Ji deliberately controlled his qi and blood, making his face worse.

It didn't take long for the attendant to lead the two people into the dormitory.

Both of them were dressed in black robes with solemn expressions.

The person in front of him, who looked to be in his fifties, had a narrow face, and the whole person looked thin, which at first glance was not unusual, but if you looked closely, you could notice his eyes.

His eyes are not cloudy with age at all, but appear very bright, and with his unique temperament, they look sharp and compelling.

The person in the back wears a crane crown, a Chinese face, and a majestic figure, giving people a feeling of a tiger's back and a bear's waist.

"Meet the king. ”

The two fell to the ground and respectfully saluted Jiang Ji.

"Hurry up, ahem......"

Jiang Ji pretended to be unwell, looking like he wanted to get up, but he was unwell.

"Your Majesty's body is important, just sit down and rest. ”

Chen Lei got up with the momentum, and at the same time showed a look of concern on his face.

"Yes, the king's injury has not healed, so sit down and rest quickly, Qu took the liberty to come to visit is already disturbing, but it can't aggravate the king's injury because of this. ”

Lieutenant Guo Qu's rugged face was a little worried, as if he was worried about Jiang Ji's safety.

The two of them are the real powerful figures in the Qin State, and they hold the military and political power of the entire Qin State.

If it is changed to an ordinary feudal state, because the minister and the lieutenant also have the responsibility of supervising the princes and kings, not to say that they bow down and bow down, the princes and kings must act according to their faces.

It's just that Jiang Ji's identity at this time is that he is the heir of today's son and one of the heirs to the throne, even if it is the identity of Chen Lei and Guo Qu, he does not dare to have any disrespect for Jiang Ji on the surface, and the etiquette is extremely thoughtful.

"Thank you for your concern, let's sit down first, I don't know what the two pillars want to see Lone?"

Chen Lei knelt on his seat, his body straight: "Lei heard that Wang Shang's injury has improved, so he came to visit on purpose." ”

The same is true of Qu, and it is not by chance that Qu heard that the king was injured, but that someone deliberately tried to murder him, and he came here to remind him to be more careful, lest he be poisoned by traitors. ”

Guo Qu said, glancing at Chen Lei, but Chen Lei's face did not change in the slightest.

Even this news has been spread, it seems that Feng Yu was still known by others when he acted, or does this Guo Qu have another source?

Now that the news has been known to them, Jiang Ji did not continue to tuck, but said calmly: "This matter is already known to Lone, the Shaofu has already made it clear to Lone, and Lone has reported this matter to the imperial court." ”

"It's true!"

Chen Lei seemed to have just learned about this matter, and he took the case and said angrily: "These traitors are really daring, Lieutenant Guo, it is your duty to prepare for the Emperor, not to mention the safety of the king, I will definitely go to the court and punish you for a crime of dereliction of duty." ”

Guo Quzhi felt nauseous, as if he had eaten a dead mouse.

He originally wanted to detain this matter on Chen Lei, but he didn't expect to lift a stone and hit himself in the foot, he didn't take the slightest advantage, and he was choked by disgust, but he couldn't say anything.

"This matter is indeed a dereliction of duty, but the hunting ground is outside the city, and with the number of soldiers in Yang Zhai, it is really not enough. ”

For the intrigue between the two, Jiang Ji was not the slightest surprised.

The prime minister and the lieutenant are both official positions with a rank of 2,000 stones, and nominally the state minister is above the lieutenant, but in fact, it depends on who has more support and more power from the officials in the feudal country, so there is often a scene where the prime minister or the lieutenant's family is dominant.

Chen Lei came to Qin half a year later than Guo Qu, so although he was more popular with the scholars in Qin, Guo Qu could also compete with him in Qin by virtue of his time advantage.

But as time went by, Guo Qu gradually fell into disadvantage, but it was impossible to make him succumb, so the two were deadlocked.

It is also because of this that these two people always think about kicking each other out of the Qin State in one fell swoop.

Sensing Guo Qu's eyes asking for help, Jiang Ji's heart moved, and he said: "What the lieutenant said is very true, this matter was done by lone and inconsiderate, so that the thief could take advantage of it, but it has nothing to do with the lieutenant. ”

The enemy of the enemy is not necessarily a friend, but compared to letting Chen Lei dominate in Qin, it is more in Jiang Ji's interests that the two are evenly matched.

Although this incident will not necessarily make Guo Qu lose his official position, the already not very good situation will definitely become more and more difficult.

"The king is kind-hearted, but some people have sinister intentions, but they can't believe it, they don't die when they fight snakes, but they will be bitten!"

Chen Lei looked distressed, and he didn't know how loyal he was to Jiang Ji.

"Chen Xiang is too worried, how can the lieutenant be this kind of person?"

"Thank you for your trust, and thank you for your gratefulness. ”

Guo Qu knew that Douzui was by no means Chen Lei's opponent, so he wisely did not continue to talk.

Seeing this, Chen Lei did not continue to chase and fight, and chatted with Jiang Ji.

After about two quarters of an hour, just as Jiang Ji wanted to send the two away on the grounds that he was unwell and end this boring conversation, an attendant reported to Bai Yan and asked to see him.

Why did he come back at this time? Could it be because of these two people?

Jiang Ji said without moving: "Lead him in." ”
