Chapter 797 You Call This Meritorious Service While Serving Your Sentence! Marquis Wenxin of the Great Qin, Obey the King's Order!

An earthquake that will occur in Old Qin next year will make the smiles on the faces of the monarchs and ministers of Great Qin even brighter.

Looking around at the smiles on the faces of the monarchs and ministers of Great Qin, Wang Wan also had a smile on his own face, but this smile was full of regret and reluctance.

With a sigh in his heart, Wang Wan stepped forward and bowed his hands: "Your Majesty."

"This thick soil has blessed the Qin Dynasty, making the city of Handan peaceful and harmonious, and no one dared to cause chaos."

"But I think that the centuries-old blood feud between the people of Qin and Zhao will not die out so easily."

"Therefore, the survivors of Zhao will not just lay down their weapons and stop resisting our great Qin."

"Moreover, only the people of Handan can see this blessing of Hotu to Qin. Most of the people of Zhao only heard about it but could not see it with their own eyes. They do not necessarily believe that Zhao was rejected by Houtu and that we, Da Qin, were favored by Houtu. fact."

"As time goes by, some of the survivors of the old Zhao will surely lead the people of the old Zhao to cause rebellion!"

"My advice, I, the Qin Dynasty, should make good use of the opportunity of blessing the Qin Dynasty with rich soil, and try our best to clean up the territory of the old Zhao State, quell the chaos of the old Zhao State, and suppress the remnants of the old Zhao State while the people's hearts are in Qin."

"And the matter ultimately needs to fall on the Sheriff."

"In view of the enmity between Qin and Zhao, I believe that non-virtuous people cannot complete this important task!"

What Wang Wan said is a very real issue.

After conquering Handan City, Ying Chengyu only stayed for one night before setting off again. He did not go on a killing spree like he did when he destroyed the country. This directly led to the fact that the number of dignitaries remaining in Handan City was greater than that of the old Han and the old Chu.

Now, the blessing of rich soil makes these powerful remnants dare not act rashly.

But as time goes by, the shock brought by the blessing of thick soil will become weaker and weaker, and one day they will take up arms and resist the Qin Dynasty!

Therefore, Wei Liao, Wei Zhuang and other ministers also raised their hands: "My lord, I second the proposal!"

Ying Zheng nodded slowly and said, "What you all said makes sense!"

"Who does Xiangbang think is worthy of this important task?"

All the court officials immediately cheered up and changed their minds, trying to let their own talents win the position of county governor!

After Wang Wan gave Ying Chengyu a smile, he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I recommend myself to be the governor of Handan County!"

Ministers: Huh? ? ?

All the courtiers who were just about to roll up their sleeves and fight fiercely looked at Wang Wan in disbelief and cried out: "Prime Minister, what do you want?"

"You are the prime minister, how can you assume the position of county guard?!"

"Xiangbang, you can't joke about such a big event!"

As we all know, although the county governor is also ranked as a minister, under the management system of Da Qin, the county governor is more than inferior to the nine ministers in the court.

Therefore, Chang Yun was sent by Lu Buwei to serve as the county governor of Yingchuan County in the past, which aroused dissatisfaction and blame from Lu Buwei's faction, and was even considered by other factions as Lu Buwei's bowing his head to seek peace.

At that time, Chang Yunke was only one of the Nine Qings, but what was Wang Wan's identity?

He is the prime minister!

He was afraid that he was crazy to give up his position as prime minister to fight for the position of governor of Handan County!

Ying Zheng also looked surprised: "Xiangbang actually wants to recommend himself?"

Wang Wan nodded and said, "I wish to recommend myself!"

"If someone else were to serve as the governor of Handan County, they would probably miss the opportunity to be blessed by the rich soil. Only if I personally serve as the governor of Handan County can I make the most of this opportunity to eliminate the contradiction between Qin and Zhao. with conflict.”

"Only in this way can we live up to the merits of Lord Chang'an and the blessings of the rich soil!"

Ying Zheng shook his head and said: "Handan County is certainly important, but there are so many important events in our country!"

"Xiangbang is calm, gentle, and handles things appropriately. He is a rare talent and an indispensable arm for me."

"An Neng will involve me because of Handan County? I don't allow it!"

Wang Wan sighed in his heart, cupped his hands and shouted: "My lord, thank you for your praise!"

"Of course, I am truly ashamed to give such praise to your Majesty!"

"Today, the territory and Dingkou of our Great Qin are increasing rapidly. There are countries outside that are eyeing our Great Qin. There are a group of thieves inside who want to take advantage of the weakness of our Great Qin to cause chaos."

"My lord, I am trembling and hesitant. I think I am incapable of taking care of your Majesty's worries."

"I ask the king to select a worthy person as prime minister!"

The shocked look in the eyes of all the courtiers turned into consideration and solemnity.

Wang Wan's abilities were far superior to Xiong Qi's, and even exceeded the average standards of the prime ministers of other countries.

His political skills and methods of implementing Yingzheng's policies are among the best in the world!

Such a talented person is now resigning from the position of Prime Minister due to lack of ability?

What does Xiangbang want? !

Ying Zheng stood up, stepped down the steps, held up Wang Wan's hands with both hands, and said warmly: "How can Prime Minister be so humble?"

"I think that Xiangbang is actually a great talent in this world!"

"If the prime minister thinks he is unable to help the poor, who else in the world can help the poor?!"

Wang Wan tried to give his hand over again, but his hands were held up by Ying Zheng and he could not do the job. He could only say sincerely: "I am not being humble, but I really know that I am not enough."

"I advise you."

After Wang Wan struggled for two breaths, he spoke solemnly:

"Please return Marquis Wenxin as prime minister!"

When Wang Wan truly said these words, there was only a sigh in his heart.

If there was a choice, Wang Wan would not give up his position as prime minister, let alone recommend Lu Buwei to return to the court.

But Wang Wan knew very well that he had no choice.

The moment Ying Chengyu came to speak about the matter in person, Wang Wan knew that Ying Zheng had actually made a decision, and Wang Wan's words in person were just to give Wang Wan some dignity.

But Wang Wan couldn't do without this dignity.

If Wang Wan is dismissed as prime minister by Ying Zheng, it is impossible for Wang Wan to get the position of Handan County Sheriff, and it will be even harder for him to return to the government in the future.

But because Wang Wan left some dignity for himself, Wang Wan was not only able to stay away from power, but was also greatly praised by Ying Zheng, and all of this was his trump card for returning to power in the future!

After all, Lu Buwei is old, but Wang Wan is still young!

The smile on Ying Zheng's face slowly faded, and his voice became deeper: "Ai Qing, you think you should ask Marquis Wen Xin to return to the court?!"

Wang Wan suddenly raised his hand and said, "I know that Marquis Wenxin is rebellious, does not care about your kindness, and is unworthy of your honor."

"Of course, I think that Marquis Wenxin is really talented."

"There are many government affairs in Daqin today, and it is a critical moment for a great cause."

"Only the talents of Marquis Wenxin can help the king achieve immortality!"

"I ask the king to put aside his old grudges and allow Marquis Wenxin to return to the court as his assistant."

"My lord, I am willing to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of my honour!"

Inside the Longtai Palace, there was total silence, but there were countless undercurrents surging.

Wei Liao and Wei Zhuang looked at each other, and they could see the deep vigilance in each other's eyes.

Lu Buwei is not as easy to talk to as Wang Wan. Once Lu Buwei returns to the court, their power will definitely be suppressed.

Chang Yun and other former subordinates of Lu Buwei were filled with excitement.

They waited hard for the stars and the moon, and finally waited for the opportunity for Lu Buwei to return to the court!

Sun Ning, Zhou Huan and other ministers who had fallen into trouble after Lu Buwei was dismissed as prime minister were filled with panic.

They didn't think their betrayal could escape Lu Buwei's eyes and ears. If Lu Buwei returned to the court, would they still have a future? !

Officials from various factions such as Ying Le, Du Leng, Feng Quji, Meng Wu, Han Cang, etc. were even more solemn.

If the giant crocodile that once roamed the court returns to the position of prime minister, it will definitely cause chaos in the newly calm Qin court.

And if this hungry giant crocodile wants to regain its former glory, it will definitely tear off an unknown amount of flesh and blood from their bodies!

The fear of death prompted Sun Ning to take the initiative to stand in line, cupping his hands and shouting: "Your Majesty..."

However, before Sun Ning could finish speaking, Ying Chengyu had already stood up, cupped his hands and shouted: "I think this advice from Prime Minister is reasonable."

"I support the return of Marquis Wenxin to the court!"

After finishing speaking, Ying Chengyu looked at Sun Ning and others and said softly: "If you have any objections, you can speak freely."

Sun Ning:......

Are you a threat?

You are definitely a threat!

Under great pressure, Sun Ning cupped his hands and said: "I think that Marquis Wenxin got the position of marquis without doing anything for Qin. He can be called a thief!"

"You have no relatives in Qin, but you call yourself King Zhongfu, which is extremely arrogant!"

"Even if such a arrogant and rebellious thief has some ability, he is not worthy of serving as the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty!"

"My lord, please think again!"

The comments that Ying Zheng once gave to Lu Buwei were translated by Sun Ning today and used to criticize Lu Buwei.

Sun Ning expected that Ying Zheng would never slap himself in the face, right?

Ying Chengxuan said quietly: "I think that the merits of Marquis Wenxin are indeed not worthy of feeding 100,000 households in the city."

"Marquis Wenxin has no relatives in Qin, let alone Guan Zhong's talents. He is indeed not worthy of being called Father Zhong!"

Zhongfu not only means uncle, but also the honorific title given by the ruler to his ministers.

In the past, Duke Huan of Qi respected Guan Zhong as Zhongfu, Jiang Ziya's title of "Shangfu", and Fan Zeng's title of "Yafu" also had similar meanings.

Secretly, Ying Chengyu changed the title of Lu Buwei's "Zhongfu" from a kinship relationship to a monarch-subject relationship.

Sun Ning's eyes were stunned: "Since Chang'an Lord also admits that Marquis Wenxin has made mistakes, why should he support Marquis Wenxin to return to the court?"

Ying Chengyu bowed his hands to Ying Zheng and said solemnly: "I think that Marquis Wenxin's fault is very serious!"

"Merely depriving Marquis Wenxin of his land is far from enough to atone for Marquis Wenxin's fault."

"Therefore, we should order Wenxinhou to return to the court and make further contributions to our great Qin Dynasty to make up for his shortcomings. Only by displaying Guan Zhong's talents can he make up for his shortcomings!"

"The faults of Marquis Wenxin can only be redeemed by making meritorious deeds!"

Not only Sun Ning, but also Li Si and others looked at Ying Chengyu in shock.

Do you call being the prime minister a crime and meritorious service?

Is there anyone who is so guilty and meritorious?

However, Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "What Lord Chang'an said makes sense."

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Li Si sighed softly.

He finally confirmed that Lu Buwei's return to court was not Wang Wan's intention, nor was it Ying Chenglong's intention, but Ying Zheng's intention!

With the current strength of Ying Zheng's control over the court, who can stop what Ying Zheng decides?

Li Si simply stepped out of the queue and shouted: "My lord, I second the proposal!"

Lu Buwei's former subordinates couldn't help but all came out and handed over their hands: "My lord, second the proposal!"

Ying Zheng said quietly: "In that case, summon Marquis Wenxin!"

Ying Zheng's words quickly passed through the eunuch's mouth toward the palace gate, and finally reached the ears of the old man outside the palace gate.

Raising his slightly cloudy eyes, Lu Buwei looked at the plaque with the word "Longtai" engraved on it, and chuckled in a complicated voice:

"Twenty-five years ago, I planned to rise from Qin in Longtai."

"I never thought that after so many years, I would seek help from Longtai again!"

Trying his best to straighten his back, Lu Buwei, who was wearing the Marquis' court uniform, bowed his hands and shouted in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, Marquis Wenxin of Great Qin, obeys the king's order!"
