Chapter 369: Wang Sheren, You Didn't Tell Me the Truth
[Parade?] Chang'anjun is going to prison the country? No wonder Your Majesty is making such a move today. ]
Courtiers, you look at me, I look at you, their eyes are full of question marks, and they are caught off guard by this news.
The right prime minister, Wang Xuan, looked at Li Si, and looked at Li Si's expression of finally coming, and his face was complicated.
He served Yingzheng and became the king, and then to the first emperor, and he also became the right prime minister of Great Qin from a housekeeper.
Originally, the young man who had returned from Zhao and would consult with him for anything, once again did not consult with him when making major decisions.
Wang Juan, who went from prime minister to old prime minister during Yingzheng's reign, can't remember the last time Yingzheng took the initiative to summon him into the palace, when was it.
The old prime minister glanced at the side and sat down slowly, disobeying the first emperor's old friend Feng Quji, who was unharmed. This imperial historian, who was originally a little disdainful, is now a little incomprehensible like His Majesty.
It's as if everyone is changing, only he is standing still......
Feng Quji, who had just sat down, couldn't stabilize for a moment, and under Wang Xuan's gaze, Huo Ran stood up and lowered his head in a loud voice:
"This is a great good! Yao, Shun, Yu, and Tang all have the act of inspecting the world, and the holy power is far away. After that, the barbarians surrendered, and the politics were virtuous, and this should be in line with the tradition under the mandate of heaven, Your Majesty Shengming! ”
In the ancient Yao, Shun and Yu eras, there was a top-down inspection, forming the prototype of the later inspection system.
Yao ordered Shun to take charge of the government of the Son of Heaven, and Shun began to inspect the southeast, northwest, and northwest, and established the system of "five years old and one patrol".
"Shangshu Shundian" records the situation of Shun's inspection of the Quartet - in February of the year, the east patrol, as for Daizong, Chai.
Since then, the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties have followed this system, but the time of hunting varies from time to time.
In the Western Zhou Dynasty, he set up a supervision of the imperial history, but it was only an official who was responsible for drafting documents and keeping classics around the Son of Heaven. At that time, there were officials called "Fang Bo", who supervised the princes with different surnames who were called ministers and tributes and the princes with the same surname who were divided into feudal titles.
In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the inspection was still dominated by the monarch, and the monarch had a "system of inspecting the county", and the monarch, the minister, and the county guard could inspect the place, and the supervision of the imperial history also began to exercise the supervision function.
Qi Xiang Guan Zhong believes that supervising the imperial history has the initiative for the monarch's rule - one is called long eyes, two is called flying ears, and three is called Shuming.
"Your Majesty's power should have spread thousands of miles long ago, and the remnants of the four seas are all eager for Your Majesty to come, Your Majesty ignores the fatigue, rushes and toils, cares about the people, and the ancient holy kings are not as good as many!"
The first person in favor was Feng Quji, and Dr. Zhou Qingchen was afraid that he would not even be able to catch up with the second place, so he jumped up and said loudly as if he was competing with others.
Dancing with hands and voices.
After that, the proponents were like a steady stream of carp crossing the river, and the court was filled with the voice of His Majesty's sage.
The First Emperor had previously said that "you want all your kings to know", but did not say "you want all you to discuss". This is a notice and not an inquiry, and it only needs to be complied with without the need to have other opinions.
When it is not known why Feng Quji opposed the decision of the First Emperor and was unharmed, no wise person would follow suit—Yao Jia's position as Shangqing had just been deposed.
"Wait until March, where I will patrol, and Xianyang will ...... the matter"
The First Emperor looked at Ying Cheng Chan tentatively, and Ying Cheng Chan replied with eager eyes.
Just now he wanted to be crowned a marquis, so he pinched his nose and stood up without refusing.
He didn't want to be in charge of the country, as long as Ying Zheng dared to say it, he would say nothing on the spot.
"No matter how big or small, it's up to the queen to decide."
The First Emperor looked away, he didn't compete with the shaft, he was very naïve!
The ministers looked at each other, very surprised.
There is no saying that the harem of the Qin State is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the tradition of the Qin State is that whoever does it is on the top, and women can also do it. Mi Bazi, Empress Dowager Huayang, and Empress Dowager Zhao are all like this.
The accident of the ministers is just that the prisoner is not a thief.
The First Emperor personally created such a big momentum today, but it was thunder and rain.
Although it was unexpected, it was common sense for the queen to supervise the country, and there were few opponents. The ministers bowed again, saying that "they must listen to the queen's dispatch", "serve the queen with the attitude of His Majesty", and "this move is very good".
After the two major events were completed and the merits were complete, the First Emperor happily listened to the rainbow fart for a while, clapped his palms, and said with a smile:
"It's all done, retreat ......"
"Your Majesty!"
Before the word "Chao" could be shouted, an old man stood up in the front row and interrupted the First Emperor's speech.
"Minister Wangwan, please resign."
The old prime minister lowered his head and said respectfully.
Ying Cheng looked at it in surprise, Li Si looked at it in surprise, Feng went in surprise, and all the courtiers looked at it in surprise.
The buttocks that the First Emperor had just lifted sat back again, and the joy on his face slowly retracted.
"Why?"
"The old minister is old, please look at the place where the old minister has worked hard for ten years and dare not slack off, and the old minister will return to the field."
The First Emperor looked at Wang Juan for a long time, and the figure with his head down and white hair under the high platform looked very lonely and desolate when he stood in the crowd.
"Yes."
The First Emperor said softly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Wang Juan was relieved and showed her first smile of the day.
"Feng Quji."
The First Emperor rubbed his eyebrows.
"The minister is here!"
Feng Quji stood up for the third time and responded in a deep voice.
"Would you like to be the right man?"
Feng Quji was stunned, and all the ministers were stunned.
This is different from the change of the position of the left prime minister.
In the final debate, Li Si said more than once that he wanted the position of prime minister, and he blatantly challenged the two prime ministers.
Kui broke the unspoken rules to pull the curtain, but finally lost to Li Si, the political struggle failed, and everyone knew that Li Si would take over as Prime Minister Zuo.
And this time, the old prime minister Wang Juan and the imperial historian Feng Qujian are people from the same camp, the two are not competitors, and they have not started a political fight.
Inexplicably, Feng Qujian changed his sex, and inexplicably Wang Juan resigned, and inexplicably Feng Qujian was arranged by His Majesty to take over as the right prime minister.
Everything that happened today, including the title of the champion of the Marquis and His Majesty's sudden announcement of the tour, is very inexplicable.
Before other people's brains could react, Feng Qu, who was half the protagonist of today's court, said in a deep voice:
"The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust! Live up to your majesty's trust! ”
"Then you'll be in charge."
The First Emperor put his fingers together and swung outward twice.
"Retreated."
The court meeting dispersed, and the various government offices began to get busy.
The king's tour is not for the people to go out, and there are too many things to prepare.
The carriage of honor guards should not only ensure the safety of the First Emperor but also force the First Emperor to the highest, and it is best to let all the witnesses in the world see it as a god.
The Shaofu prepares weapons, the Prime Minister's Mansion plans the route, and the Zhisu Inner History Mansion prepares money and grain......
As soon as the First Emperor said a word, the people below broke their legs, and everyone began to get busy.
…………
"When did you join Chang'anjun?"
Xiangbang Mansion, a room used to store the completed chapters, Wang Juan sat on the hardwood chair with a relaxed face and said softly.
In addition to him, there was only one person in the room - Feng Quji, who had come to hand over the right prime minister's position with him.
The little officials were all called out by Wang Juan, and Lu Buwei, who was qualified to come here, Li Si also gave the old prime minister a decent appearance, and did not come here to stir up the situation.
It's not the first time Feng Quji has come to this place, but this time he came as the chief official, and the feeling was completely different.
The bamboo slips piled up on the square bookshelves, the rendering on the table for many years, the ink stains that can't be washed off, and the aroma of bamboo and wood mixed with ink wafting in the air all make Feng Quji feel like he has met for the first time.
"If you don't want to say it, don't say it."
Wang Juan got up and bent his back so that he felt more comfortable.
"It's yours."
He walked towards the door, his steps brisk and still accelerating.
It's as if the place where he is is not the Xiangbang Mansion where everyone wants to enter it, but a Longtan Tiger's Den!
"Right Phase!"
The sound of clattering footsteps woke Feng Quji, and he woke up like a dream.
"Now you're the right minister, and you're just a white body."
Wang Juan said this, but his footsteps slowed down, he left, he wanted to go clearly.
Feng Quji, who has always been on the same front as him, and the second-in-command of his camp, when did Doctor Yu Shi deviate to the side of the shaft?
"When did you get in touch with Chang'an-kun? Was it when Meng Xibai was destroyed, or when the wax sacrifice was made, or when the building was newly replaced? ”
Wang Juan said in a deep voice.
He didn't know the reason for what Feng Quji did today, but from the result of Ying Cheng Ji being the biggest profiteer, he came to the conclusion that Feng Quji was doing things for Ying Cheng Chan.
Today, there is no new right man in the room, and Ying Chengcheng will not be in awe of the court, and there is a faint call of Qin II.
Feng Qujian shook his head and chuckled.
"It's not Chang'anjun's person to go to the disease."
"You think I'll believe you if you say that?"
"Going to the disease is the Imperial Doctor, and what I did today is just the duty of the Imperial Doctor."
Feng Qujian said sincerely.
Wang Juan meditated for a moment, his body was unstable, and he suddenly slapped his face on the table to stabilize his figure, knocked over the inkstone, and the ink in the inkstone flowed all over his hands.
"Understood, I see......"
His last doubts were gone.
…………
"Feng Quji, but underestimated him."
Li Si was slightly dissatisfied.
In the back hall of Xiangbang Mansion, only Lü Buwei and Li Si are here.
Lu Buwei shook his head and smiled when he heard this.
"Are you dissatisfied because Feng Quji's official position is suddenly above you?"
"Exactly."
Li Si readily admitted.
Great Qin respects the right, and he, the left prime minister, is nominally on the same level as the right prime minister, but in fact, he is still half a level lower in the eyes of the ministers.
"Take a long-term view, whether it is the left prime minister or the right prime minister, after all, it is still the prime minister.
"You were dissatisfied with me as a prime minister at the beginning, and you should continue to be dissatisfied in the future."
Lü Buwei looked at the recent repairs of Chidao.
"But it's not just you, I'm also gone, I didn't expect this wall grass to be enlightened one day, I thought he would be taken down by His Majesty immediately, but I didn't expect him to go further."
The duties of the Imperial Doctor are to handle political affairs as the prime minister's deputy, so he is privately called the deputy prime minister. Second, as the head of the Imperial Historical Observatory, he is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials.
The promotion method is generally that if there is a vacancy in the position of prime minister, the imperial historian who has been handling affairs with the prime minister can be handed over.
"So many people didn't figure out His Majesty's temperament, and he even guessed it, he was not as lucky as you, and he was reminded by the king. In terms of judging the situation, Feng Quji is better than you and me. ”
Li Si bowed his head in frustration.
"I don't know how this wall grass knows that His Majesty is willing to do his duty. Today, his actions are completely in line with the Imperial Doctor, neither humble nor arrogant, not in line with the king's opposition and uncompromised, which is in line with His Majesty's wishes. ”
Lü Buwei nodded:
"The king once said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and you must figure out the intention. But His Majesty's intention is that he doesn't want his subordinates to figure out his intentions. What His Majesty wants is for all the courtiers to do their job well and not to think nonsense.
"You suffered this loss at the beginning, think about it carefully, even if you want to kill Han Fei, did Your Majesty also give clear instructions? We, Your Majesty, don't look down on intrigues.
"What clues are in the court, who was summoned by His Majesty, and who was suddenly favored, don't care about those. As long as you keep doing your good job as your left prime minister, if I go down, you will be on top. ”
The hand turning over the bamboo slip suddenly stopped, and Lu Buwei raised his head and said:
"No, now Feng Qujian also has hope."
…………
"Your Majesty Xuan Wang Xuan entered the palace to meet you."
At the gate of Xiangbang's mansion, the carriage of the king of horses stopped here, and a eunuch entered to announce.
Wang Juan's expression was complicated.
His Majesty finally summoned him, but only after he lost his position as the right prime minister.
The old man followed behind the eunuch and got into the king's chariot with ease.
"Come and sit and eat with me."
The First Emperor sat in front of a table of exquisite dishes and patted the chair next to him to greet Wang Juan.
Wang Juan was in a trance.
Many years ago, the stubborn young man who came back from Zhao State did not have gold and silver treasures, and only knew how to show sincerity, and he couldn't win people at all.
Those old foxes who have become spirits only look at profits, and these false courtesies are completely ignored.
Only he, a petty official with no ambition, is grateful to be able to eat side by side with Zhenggongzi and eat together in this era of the meal sharing system.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Wang Juan was not polite, he sat down and ate, even if the first emperor had not moved his chopsticks.
The first emperor gathered his chopsticks and put a piece of venison in Wang Juan's bowl.
Cheng Chan said that the elderly should eat less meat and can live longer. I have always scoffed, Lian Po is 100 years old, eating two catties of meat is not a problem, and it is good to be able to eat the body. As you get older, you eat more meat. ”
"Yui."
Wang Juan eats the meat in the bowl.
The two ate in silence for a while, and after the chopsticks fell on the plate more than a dozen times.
"Why do you suddenly want to resign?"
The First Emperor said suddenly, just as suddenly as Wang Juan resigned.
"I can't do it anymore."
Wang Wan kept chopsticks and said while eating.
"It's time to give way to the young. If you occupy the position of prime minister again, you should be jealous. ”
"Wang Sheren, you didn't tell me the truth."
Wang Juan took a meal of chopsticks and continued to grill rice.
When he first joined the First Emperor, his official position was that of Sheren.
"The Wang Juan I know is a madman who is in the position of giving up people and dares to call me to the throne."
"Your Majesty, you are getting old and don't have so much spirit. Ding Xingwang, a member of the Juan family, has a fine gentleman, eight concubines, and gave birth to six sons and three daughters, and Juan is not a lonely family......"
"Eat, I'm full."
The First Emperor put down his chopsticks lightly and left the table in disappointment.
Wang Juan ate in silence, one bite at a time, extremely serious, this was the last meal that the prince invited him to eat.
