The official state of prison is very different from the previous state of prison, and at this time, Fusu felt heartfelt relaxation and happiness, and the whole person was immersed in the excitement of holding power.

It's just that when Fusu saw the documents from the Prime Minister's Office and documents from all over the country, he finally broke the defense.

He looked at Chu Meng beside him with some seriousness, with a suspicious look on his face: "Why is there so much government affairs all of a sudden?" Shouldn't this be? ”

"In the past, I basically handled most of the paperwork, why not more than half of what I have now?"

Chu Meng said cautiously: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Prime Minister Chen Cheng of the Prime Minister's Office left with His Majesty, so now half of the documents signed by the Prime Minister have not been approved by Prime Minister Zuo, and they have also arrived with us." ”

He had a little shame on his face: "Prime Minister Li Cheng took leave, saying that he was not in good health again, and after suffering from a cold in the winter of last year, he began to cough day by day. ”

"I've been coughing even harder these days, so I can't handle some government affairs of the Prime Minister's Office."

"Now some irrelevant government affairs of the Prime Minister's Office are handled by Cao Shen, the Prime Minister's Office "Wen Cheng", and the rest of Jiuqing and many others also help deal with some of them."

"The rest of the more important ones must be handled by the prime minister, and they are all sent to you."

After Chu Meng cautiously glanced at Fusu, he spoke again: "Moreover, in the past few days, Tianhai County has also been sending news over, and it seems that some of the assimilation of Baiyue has entered the next stage, so I ask for your advice." ”

Listening to the task that Chu Meng said, Fusu was a little stunned for a while.

The two prime ministers of the Prime Minister's Office are on strike at the same time?

Just hearing Chu Meng's words, Fusu turned his head to look at Chu Meng as if he had thought of something: "Is Gong Li okay?" ”

Chu Meng said softly: "Li Lingshi said that it was nothing serious, but it was a little cold, and then he had been cultivating at home, and the Imperial Doctor Ling had also seen it in the past, and he also said that he needed to be raised." ”

"That's why I took a leave."

Fusu nodded, and then said, "Then let Li Xiang rest for a while." ”

He pressed his forehead and said, "Li Xiang and the teacher are temporarily resting, and no one has jurisdiction over the major affairs of the Prime Minister's Office, which is not okay." ”

Fusu pondered for a while, and wanted to send a letter to Yingzheng, asking his father to appoint a new official position, or a temporary replacement, but he stopped as soon as he mentioned it.

Because he thought of what Ying Zheng said when he left before, he only had three chances.....

He was silent.

Do you want to use it now for the first opportunity?

He didn't know how many years his teacher and father would be gone, and it was not good to use up a chance at the beginning.

Therefore, after only being silent for a short time, Fusu raised his head, looked at Chu Meng, and said in a low voice: "Spread Gu's will, so that Shaofu Xiao He temporarily concurrently serves as part of the government affairs of the right minister; Promote the Prime Minister's Office as the "Ling History", and deal with the Prime Minister's Office with Shaofu Xiao He. ”

Speaking of this, Fusu touched his chin again, and then spoke again: "Promote Liu Chen, the secretary of the Prime Minister's Office, to be the Prime Minister's "Repair Seal", and promote Yan Zhengchun, a doctor from Baijiagong, to be the Prime Minister's Director Shi, and Liu Chen Xiuzhen to deal with the government affairs of the Prime Minister Zuo. ”

Xiao He and Cao Shen are all figures of the Confucian lineage, even if they can't handle some things, or if there is a problem, the people behind them can solve it.

And Yan Zhengchun and Liu Chen are characters who belong to the rest of the hundred schools.

This strikes a delicate balance.

Just as Chu Meng was about to go to deliver the decree, the corners of Fusu's mouth outlined a smile again.

It is not enough to strike a delicate balance between these two veins, because there is no one who can control the scene, and who has a high status, seniority, and background to deal with the problem at a certain "outbreak".

So Fusu once again promoted a new character.

This character is very senior, very senior, and his background is simply thorough.

"In addition, the Deputy Director of Education, Zuo Ge, is temporarily concurrently appointed as the Deputy Prime Minister of the Prime Minister's Office to oversee the affairs of the Prime Minister's Office."

In this way, the last worries are gone.

Why do you need people for Zuo Ge?

Chen Ke's senior brother, a doctor from Baijiagong, and the deputy director of the Education Department.

In terms of seniority and qualifications, this is the descendant disciple of Mozi's closed disciples who accepted apprentices on behalf of his teacher, and in terms of background, he is the senior brother of Chang'an Hou and Zuo Prime Minister of the dynasty.

In terms of generation, at this time, only one Li Si and one Lin Jing in the entire Great Qin can be the same generation as him.

This is still a peer in "morality".

After all, everyone is a disciple of Zhuzi, but if it comes to seniority in the real sense, no one can provoke this master.

Li Si was a disciple of Xunzi, but Xunzi was a hundred years later than Mozi, and Xunzi was a descendant of Confucius in a part (although he did not admit it himself), while Mozi was the person who really competed with Confucius.

If this is really the case, then Zuo Ge is actually the same generation as Xunzi and Zhuangzi, that is, the teachers of Li Si and Lin Jing.

He was completely able to suppress the people of these two factions.

The Prime Minister's Office is a safe life.

Chu Meng bowed slightly, and then went to deliver the decree.

And the few people who were appointed by Fusu did not have the slightest pride, but just acted naturally as they had been, and some people in the court did not make the slightest move.

After all, now that everyone can see the situation clearly, this is really going to start preparing to accept power.

Things have become settled, even if you don't want to, you have to think about it.

So what else to consider?

Just be obedient.

Fusu looked at Chu Meng's departing figure, pressed his jumping forehead, felt a little pain in his head, and had a slightly tired look on his body.

"It turns out that the balance that my father and teacher often talk about is such a thing."

...........

Lee House

Li Si pressed his forehead slightly, he was lying on the bed, and next to him stood Li Yang and Li You, served by two people, and the whole room was filled with a sad atmosphere.

He sighed and said, "Why be so sad? ”

"The old man is just sick, not dead."

Li Yang's expression was a little inexplicably worried: "Father, don't say that. ”

He sighed: "You haven't seen the child's child yet, not to mention, now that Prime Minister Chen Cheng has gone to Xianyang with His Majesty to parade, if you fall at this time, what should Daqin do?" ”

Li Si pursed his lips, after all, it was the will in his heart that took over.

"Okay, listen to you, just take the medicine when you need to."

"Why bother to use Chen Ke's thief to press me."

He closed his eyes slightly, feeling the faint pain in his body, a little helpless.

Perhaps his spirit was too relaxed, and some of the still suppressed illnesses erupted at this time.

He asked the Imperial Physician to tell Fusu that he was cold, but it wasn't exactly like that.

Li Si is indeed a wind chill, but it is not just a wind chill, he is a wind chill that broke out together with a variety of diseases in his body, and his body was in deficit in many places, and after another winter, it broke out.

He didn't want Fusu to worry, and he didn't want Chen Ke and Yingzheng, who had just gone out, to worry.

Huiji County

Wang Jian yawned slightly, he rode on horseback, cruising around the city, his eyes were extremely sharp, like an eagle soaring in the nine heavens.

Although the eagle is a little old, he can still catch prey.

"Da-da-"

The sound of horses' hooves reached the ears of the people around him, and Wang Jian continued to patrol the territory.

He looked at the figure in the distance who was building the city, and asked the soldiers who were following him in a low voice: "This batch of laborers was recruited?" ”

The young generals around him nodded, and said very skillfully: "General, these laborers are indeed recruited, and the county guard of Huiji said that Prime Minister Chen Cheng specially approved a sum of money to pay these laborers. ”

"Yang Junshou also said that Prime Minister Chen Cheng said that the construction of Tianhai City is one of the most important events in Daqin today, and it must not be left behind, so let's just recruit people."

Wang Jian squinted his eyes slightly: "Then why do I look at some people who don't look like my Daqin?" Some are Baiyue people? Some don't look like Baiyue people, and their bodies are even darker. ”

The soldier smiled and whispered, "General, those people are not 'solicited', but 'bought'. ”

He rubbed his hands and said, "If all the people were recruited, then our funds would have been insufficient for a long time, these people were bought at extremely low prices, captured from the 'Peacock Dynasty' a little further south, and some of them were some Baiyue people who rebelled at the beginning. ”

"We ordinary people in Daqin have wages, and those Baiyue people are prisoners of war because they rebelled and resisted Daqin at the beginning, so they have no wages and only care for three meals. The rest are the Mauryan people we bought or captured, and they are only in charge of two meals. ”

"The workers recruited to build Tianhai City only had to work three to four hours a day, while the Baiyue prisoners of war had to work four to five hours, and those slaves had to work more than six hours."

Wang Jian frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, and it was generally believed that barbarians were not human beings during this period.

The more famous assertion that white horses are not horses and that everyone is not a horse was handed down during this period, so he did not care about the lives of those slaves.

"Old man, I don't care what you do to those people of the Peacock Dynasty, but if I find out, or if you dare to do something to capture the people of Great Qin........

Wang Jian looked at the soldier with a strange look, as if he was talking to another person through this soldier.

"Then you must know that the old man is not a good-tempered person."

The soldier immediately smiled flatteringly: "You can rest assured, how can it be a Great Qin person?" ”

Wang Jian chuckled: "It's not good." ”

"I just hope that one day I won't be really greedy and do this kind of thing."

western regions

On the steppe

There were blood stains everywhere, and boundless blood reverberated in the air around them.

Maudun rode a horse and stood on this boundless grassland, his eyes were resentful and deep, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hideous, and he raised his arms and shouted: "I'll wait, win!" ”

The wolf rider behind him also shouted, "Win!" ”

Maudun's horses rode incessantly across the steppe, and under the hooves of the horses were rotting flesh and deadly corpses, some of them armored, some of them animal skins, and more rags.

These are the soldiers of the Roman Empire, who fell under the wolf riders and fell into the hands of the Huns, who were protected by the Immortal Heaven.

The horses chirped, and everything seemed to be normal.

He shouted, "From this day forward, this boundless steppe is our territory!" The Great Hun Empire once again stands under the great Immortal Heaven! ”

Mao suddenly dismounted, and then prostrate on the ground, looking at the infinitely high sky: "Immortal Heaven will go up again!" Bless us and wait for us to return to Qilian! ”

The remnants of the wolf behind him also dismounted, prostrate on the ground, and followed Maudun's movements and looked at the infinitely high sky.

"Immortal Heaven again! Bless us and us back to Qilian—"

"Immortal Heaven again! Bless us and us back to Qilian—"

"Immortal Heaven again! Bless us and us back to Qilian—"

The roaring sound echoed across the grassland, and the surrounding rivers were about to stop flowing for a while due to the sound.

Yin Shang Continent

Big business

Xu Fu looked at the Shang King Emperor in front of him and smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, how have you gained in the past few days?" ”

Although Di Lun was classified as the king of a country, he was still like a humble courtier by Xu Fu's side, and said with respect in his voice: "Xu Envoy Ling, fortunately, with the help of the Qin army, the Shang State has now occupied far more land than it was at the beginning. ”

"We've found the place you drew before, which has the resource of "oil", and we have also found several silver and gold mines."

He smiled: "We have already started to organize the local indigenous mining of gold and silver ore, and the oil mine is also being built, and in about a month, we can start digging and extracting oil." ”

Di Lun touched his head: "It's just that Xiao Wang has a reluctant request." ”

Xu Fu glanced at Di Lun with some curiosity: "What?" ”

Di Lun rubbed his hands: "Can you exchange the oil, gold and silver mines of this part of the Shang Kingdom for some things that the Shang Kingdom needs?" For example, cotton, porcelain, tea, and so on. ”

Xu Fu looked at Di Lun with a deep and somewhat interesting look: "You are very wise. ”

Why is Dillen wise?

Because whether it is oil or gold and silver mines, they are all things that Great Qin needs today, and these things are what Great Qin needs, so you can exchange these things for some of your own needs.

After all, no matter how valuable these things are, they are not needed by the current merchant country.

This is short-sighted, but it seems to be the best approach at the moment.

In fact, the things that Dillen really wants to change are in that "wait", such as farming techniques, such as farming tools, such as iron farm tools such as Chen Ke plows, Chen Ke cars, etc.

These are the things that can make his country grow quickly, and that's what he really needs.

It's just that he didn't dare to say it, hiding in "waiting", wanting to wait and see what Daqin's attitude was saying about these things.

This is a qualified king.

Xu Fu picked up the teacup that was placed aside, this was the porcelain brought back from Daqin: "So, how do you want to exchange it?" ”

He said with some hint in his tone: "You can make a list, according to your needs, the needs of the merchant country, and mark the price you can accept." ”

"I should go back to Daqin in half a year, and you don't have to follow when you go back to Daqin this time."

Xu Fu's voice was serious, but there was a hint of a smile that Dil Lun couldn't understand.

Tillen asked a little curiously, a little cautiously, "What do you mean?" ”

Xu Fu took out a holy decree from his sleeve, which was the canonization decree of the First Emperor, and it was the most important task given to him by the First Emperor.

Let him take it out at the right time and give it to Tyran.

Now Xu Fu felt that now was a suitable opportunity, so he took it out.

He handed it to Dyren and asked him to see it for himself.

Tylen took the letter and looked at it carefully, his hands trembling slightly.

Because it is written in the holy decree that His Majesty the First Emperor, the supreme emperor from the Great Qin Empire and the supreme emperor in the center of the world, canonized him and canonized him as "emperor".

Allow him to be called emperor instead of king.

Allow him to use the term "lonely."

He was allowed to make a "prince" instead of a "prince."

From then on, the Shang Kingdom may be called the "Great Shang Empire", and Emperor Lun can change from the Shang King to the Shang Emperor, and he no longer has to call himself the Little King, he can call himself Lonely.

Called a lonely widow!

Xu Fu looked at Di Lun with a smile and said softly: "Your Majesty Di Lun, what Your Majesty means is that you are not a courtier of Great Qin, but an ally of Great Qin. ”

"Although now you are canonized by His Majesty the First Emperor of Great Qin, His Majesty the First Emperor is the ancestral dragon of the world, and he is enough to have this character."

"If you and the Shang Kingdom can meet the requirements of Great Qin for allies, His Majesty the First Emperor will crown you as the First Emperor and the Ancestral Dragon, and you can be called 'Emperor' from now on."

The emperor is not something that anyone or no one can call himself.

This "title" or "crown" requires qualifications, and requires you to convince everyone in a civilized circle.

The only "crown" or "person" recognized by everyone in later generations is probably the title of "Emperor of the Chinese Empire" in Asia, the title of "Emperor of the Roman Empire" in Europe, the "Great Khan" of Mongolia, and the "Golden Khan/Golden Khan" of the Xiongnu Empire.

Although this era does not pay attention to this for the time being, who dares to use the title of "emperor" without the permission of the Great Qin Emperor?

Really don't want to die?

King Shang, oh, the current Shang Emperor feels that he still wants to die, after all, he is still holding the thigh of the Great Qin Empire.

But no matter how much you like to hug your thighs, you will want face.....

And this behavior of the First Emperor undoubtedly gave him this face, allowing him to use the title and title of "Emperor", which of course is a little humiliating, after all, the title of emperor of "Shang State" was given by Great Qin, which shows that Shang Guo is the younger brother of Great Qin.

But.....

So what?

This is Dillen's truest thoughts today.

..........

On the road to Mikawa-gun

Inside the carriage

Ying Zheng looked at the surrounding environment and felt the stability in the carriage, and couldn't help but admire: "Chen Ke, Chen Ke, I never understood before, what is the use of you letting those "scientists" study the rules. ”

"Since the advent of gunpowder, I've understood a little."

"But when using the carriage today, this clarity has reached its peak."

"It is because of the existence of these people that I can travel the world so comfortably, and I can no longer have to endure the pain of chariots and horses."

The second was a little later, around half past eleven.
