Chapter 204 Ying Zheng: Han Fei, you must remember how good Zhao Feng is to you! Just say it clearly!
Back to the front yard!
"Zhao Feng."
"This time it's really a double happiness."
"I didn't expect that Princess Yan would also give birth to a daughter for you." Xia Wuji said with a smile.
"It's good to have a daughter."
Ying Zheng said in a deep voice, and then looked at Zhao Feng with an instructive tone: "Zhao Feng, although you have been a father for several years, you must remember one thing."
"Please enlighten me, Your Majesty." Zhao Feng looked at Ying Zheng.
"Distinction between direct concubine and concubine."
"You must keep this in mind. Once you are biased, it will definitely be the source of chaos in your house."
"No matter what family you belong to, even if you are a merchant, if you are too biased towards the latter when it comes to concubines, there will be disaster." Ying Zheng said with a serious face.
Zhao Feng also nodded in agreement: "I understand this matter."
"In a big family, it's nothing more than a matter of inheritance."
Seeing Zhao Feng nod, Ying Zheng felt a little relieved: "It's good if you understand."
As the current King of Qin.
Ying Zheng is naturally more thorough on this point.
only.
Before knowing Zhao Feng's identity, Ying Zheng had no way to treat his many sons as concubines, because they were all concubines and not born to the queen of the main palace.
Therefore, originally we could only focus on cultivating Fusu, the eldest son.
But his character and abilities disappointed Ying Zheng.
But now things have changed.
Zhao Feng appeared.
He was born to the woman she loved, the queen he recognized in his heart.
Then Zhao Feng is the legitimate son. Since he has the eldest son, how can he care about those concubines anymore.
Ordinary big families have differences between their descendants and concubines, especially in the royal family.
"The problem of inheritance among sons is nothing more than uneven distribution of property."
"There is only one head of the family, and there is only one throne in the imperial family."
"But for us, the future is different."
"The world is so big, everyone of my sons can be a king." This is what Zhao Feng thought in his heart.
On the land of China.
If chaos really breaks out in the future, and Zhao Feng has to wipe it out before establishing a new dynasty, then the final successor must be Zhao Qi, the emperor of China.
As for the vast territory beyond the land of China, we can fight it.
As for how to defend it after defeating it?
Those are naturally his sons.
The world is so big, everything is possible.
"A son and a daughter."
"If nothing else, you kid has a very deep blessing."
"Gu Ye has prepared some gifts for you." Ying Zheng clapped his hands.
I saw a group of palace attendants carrying boxes one by one to the mansion.
Each box contains the finest elixirs.
See these.
Zhao Feng also felt the sincerity with which Ying Zheng treated him.
He immediately bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"This is for Yan'er, and by the way, it's also for Princess Yan." Ying Zheng waved his hand and said gently: "You can stay with Yan'er at home during this period. There is no need to go to court."
Listen to this.
Zhao Feng nodded immediately: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
He couldn't ask for this.
Above the court, Zhao Feng really didn't want to go.
Firstly, it’s boring, and secondly, I really don’t want to participate.
Compared to the comfort he felt in the army, he was unhappy in court.
"alright."
"Let's not disturb Zhao Feng here."
"He has just returned, let him have a good rest." Ying Zheng smiled, naturally understanding Zhao Feng's character.
Wang Jian and Xia Wuqie also stood up slowly.
"Your Majesty."
Zhao Feng suddenly stopped Ying Zheng.
"What's the matter?" Ying Zheng turned around and asked.
"You are so kind to me, and I don't have anything to give you."
"Only these two bottles of elixir can be given away."
Zhao Feng took out two bottles of elixirs from his arms with a sincere expression.
Hearing Zhao Feng's words.
Then look at the two bottles of elixir in Zhao Feng's hand.
Ying Zheng's face was full of confusion.
"Do you want Gu to die early?" Ying Zheng said angrily.
Him at this moment.
Just like when Zhao Feng was given the elixir for the first time.
Panacea.
No dogs.
The expressions of Wang Jian and Xia Wuqi on the side also changed.
He looked at Zhao Feng in confusion.
Now that everyone in the court knows that the elixir is poisonous, what is Zhao Feng doing?
"My King, do you think this spiritual elixir is the poison elixir refined by those alchemists?" Zhao Feng smiled, naturally knowing what Ying Zheng was thinking.
"Isn't the magic pill just a poison pill?"
"That's what you said." Ying Zheng said angrily.
Fortunately, it was Zhao Feng at the moment. If it had been anyone else, Ying Zheng would have dragged him down without any hesitation and killed him with a cane.
"This is not a poison elixir, but a medicinal elixir prepared by me. It has a refreshing effect, and this bottle has a detoxifying effect." Zhao Feng pointed to the two bottles of elixir in his hand.
Then he opened the pill containing the refreshing pill, poured out one, and swallowed it directly.
"Really?" Ying Zheng is no longer so suspicious.
He knew Zhao Feng well.
There is no reason to harm himself, and he also cherishes his life very much. If it is really poisonous, then Zhao Feng himself will not eat it at all.
"Your Majesty, forget it." Zhao Feng smiled and didn't explain anything.
He took the elixir into his arms.
This elixir was refined by him himself. It was melted by the fire of true energy and tempered with medicinal materials. It was not refined by those deceitful alchemists using various heavy metal poisons.
This is the real magic pill.
"You've already taken it out, how can you take it back?" Ying Zheng cursed angrily.
"What do you want, Your Majesty?" Zhao Feng said with a smile.
Ying Zheng didn't say much and took the two bottles of elixir directly from Zhao Feng.
"For others, Gu may be suspicious."
"But for you..." Ying Zheng stared at Zhao Feng: "I know you will not harm me."
There is no reason for one.
Zhao Feng reminded him that the second magic pill was poisonous, and there was no need for Zhao Feng to use poisonous pills to harm himself.
"Haha." Zhao Feng laughed and did not explain anything.
"You gave it to the king, why don't you give it to your father-in-law?" Wang Jian complained.
"father in law."
"After two days, I will prepare some more for you."
"These are real magic pills, not fake poison pills. They are very rare." Zhao Feng said immediately.
"Since your father-in-law wants it all, I have the audacity to ask for it." Xia Wuji also said with a smile.
"Yes, both." Zhao Feng nodded repeatedly.
…
The days after.
Zhao Feng also enjoyed the rare peace.
There is no need to go to court or command an army.
I spend time with Wang Yan and Wuyang every day.
certainly.
During this period, many courtiers learned that Ying Zheng was visiting the Zhao Mansion, and even named Zhao Feng's second son personally. Many courtiers also sent congratulatory gifts.
for these.
Zhao Feng also accepted all comers.
All was calm.
Above the court!
"Your Majesty Han Fei."
"Return to the capital under the imperial edict."
"It's recorded in Zhao's local household register, it's recorded in its tax register, it's recorded in its population register."
"Please read it, Your Majesty."
Han Fei stood in the main hall, holding a box in his hand, which contained the basic records of the return from Wei.
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
Zhao Gao immediately walked down the hall, took the box respectfully, and then presented it to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng opened the box.
I casually picked up the top volume and took a look at it. Looking at his serious look, I knew that he had read it very carefully.
After watching the first copy.
Ying Zheng continued to read.
The entire court was silent.
now.
Many ministers in the court understood that if Han Fei succeeded in governing Zhao this time, he would have the opportunity to become one of the Nine Qings.
After going on for quite a while.
Ying Zheng closed these records.
"Han Qing's ability to govern is resounding throughout the world. In the past, when we were in Xianyang, we could not clearly see Han Qing's ability."
"Now the population is not inferior to ours. The Zhao region of Da Qin has experienced wars and man-made disasters. It was managed and improved by Han Qing in just over a year."
"This achievement belongs to Han Qing."
Ying Zheng praised Han Fei.
It is clear.
These reports also benefited Ying Zheng very much.
It was obviously approved.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment."
"As an official of the Qin Dynasty, I should serve the Qin Dynasty." Han Fei said neither humble nor overbearing.
"I heard it alone."
"After you finished managing Zhao, you went to Daliang City and managed hundreds of thousands of refugees?"
"And built a new city?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
Han Fei didn't waste time and took out another piece of cloth from his arms.
"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."
"This is Xincheng household registration, Xincheng household registration, and population situation." Han Fei held up the cloth in his hand and said loudly.
Zhao Gao immediately walked down quickly, took the cloth, and presented it to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng took it and took a closer look.
The situation of this new city and its registered population are all at a glance.
"Originally, Daliang City had a population of more than 500,000 people. After Hongze, there were still 400,000 people. Han Qing resettled them all and built a new city."
"This achievement is not small."
Ying Zheng said with a look of relief.
"The strategy for building the city, as well as the specific implementation method, thanks to General Zhao Feng for granting it, otherwise I would not be able to manage it so easily."
"Most of this merit is due to General Zhao Feng, I just got an advantage." Han Fei announced loudly.
Obviously. Han Fei didn't want to monopolize this credit, even if Zhao Feng took the initiative to give it to him.
He didn't know.
When he heard that most of the credit for building the city and settling the refugees was Zhao Feng, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.
"Han Qing is saying that the city-building strategy and the specific implementation were all arranged by Zhao Feng?" Ying Zheng asked.
"This strategy and even the method were arranged by General Zhao Feng. I just took over the strategy and implemented it." Han Fei replied truthfully.
"I can't tell."
"Zhao Feng actually knows how to manage government affairs." Ying Zheng said with some emotion.
"Return to the king."
"General Zhao Feng is not only good at commanding troops, but he is also absolutely not weak in government affairs. I also deeply respect him." Han Fei replied loudly.
"To be praised so much by Han Qing, it seems that Zhao Feng is indeed outstanding in government affairs." Ying Zheng also smiled and nodded.
And she was particularly happy in her heart: "Feng'er, Feng'er, it seems that my father really underestimates you."
"I never thought that you would be so good at government affairs."
"Building a new city and settling hundreds of thousands of refugees is not something that simple government capabilities can do."
"It looks like it."
"Feng'er is really God's destined heir to me."
Come to your senses.
Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Han Fei again and said loudly: "Han Qing is indispensable for the governance of the Zhao region and the construction of a new city in Daliang to settle hundreds of thousands of refugees."
"This is my duty." Han Fei bowed.
"Han Fei has made great contributions to the governance of the country and deserves a reward."
"Pass the imperial edict."
"From today onwards."
"Han Fei was granted the title of Governor of Su Neishi, and was awarded the title of Jiuqing."
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said with authority.
"My lord, thank you for your kindness."
Han Fei did not refuse, nor did he hesitate.
Before all the courtiers came to their senses, thank him directly.
This is also the tact of Han Fei.
If he accepts the imperial edict directly at this moment, without waiting for others to speak, then he, one of the Nine Qings, is completely settled.
"The king appointed me, and I seconded it."
"Master Han's talents are sufficient for this position." Li Si immediately stood up and agreed.
No matter it's a little late now, or whatever.
He did it anyway.
This is also a good sign to Han Fei.
And after Li Si finished speaking.
Wang Wan, the court and other ministers all agreed.
At this moment, Ying Zheng's mind has been made up, and the position of governing Su Neishi has always been vacant. No one can take up this responsibility. Han Fei's arrival may be enough to make up for it.
"Han Qing's reputation has been resounding throughout the world, and this governance of Zhao is also proof of Han Qing's reputation."
"I believe you will not let me down." Ying Zheng smiled slightly.
"I will serve the Qin Dynasty wholeheartedly and strengthen the Qin Dynasty." Han Fei said loudly.
From beginning to end.
Han Fei never said he was loyal to the King of Qin, but every time he said he was loyal to the Qin Dynasty.
Perhaps for Han Fei, this was his last remaining dignity.
He was loyal to Da Qin, not to the King of Qin.
And in Zhao Feng's description of his future, Da Qin was equal to the world.
And he is loyal to the world.
As for Ying Zheng.
Da Qin is him, he is Da Qin.
Naturally, he could accept Han Fei's loyalty.
"alright."
"Let's continue the discussion."
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."
"I have the original memorial."
"It concerns the people of Wei." Han Fei announced loudly.
"Say." Ying Zheng said.
"Before the Qin Dynasty destroyed Wei, the state of Wei was aggressive in military affairs and collected extremely high taxes."
"I propose that the taxes in Wei be reduced to the same as those in Great Qin. After all, they are all subjects of Great Qin now." Han Fei asked loudly.
"This is true for both Zhao and Han."
"Wei Di will naturally be no exception."
"Accurate." Ying Zheng didn't hesitate.
"Great King Shengming."
"The taxes in Wei are extremely high. Lowering taxes can be like that of Zhao and Han, so that the people of Wei will be loyal to our great Qin." Wei Liao immediately agreed.
…
Inside Zhangtai Palace!
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Han Fei bowed to Ying Zheng.
"sit."
Ying Zheng pointed to the cushion beside him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Han Fei thanked him and sat upright on the cushion.
"Han Fei."
"Gu, I know your heart." Ying Zheng suddenly said.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Han Fei was stunned.
"You surrendered to our Great Qin, and you are not the only one who is loyal." Ying Zheng said slowly.
Han Fei's expression changed and he bowed hurriedly: "I am scared."
But Ying Zheng raised his hand and didn't care at all: "I understand, your loyalty is to all the Chinese people in this country."
"For the lonely."
"It's the same thing."
"Because Gu is the king of Qin, and will be the future king of the world. If you are loyal to the world, you are loyal to Gu." Ying Zheng said with infinite domineering.
To this.
Han Fei said no more.
It's just that I feel the domineering and majestic power of the king in front of me more clearly.
"The position of Jiuqing is high and powerful."
"Originally, a surrender would not have the opportunity to hold this position."
"Do you know why Gu asked you to take charge?" Ying Zheng smiled and asked again.
for this.
In fact, Han Fei had already expected this.
Then he cupped his fists and replied, "This is a great talent of your Majesty's, which is beyond the reach of ordinary kings."
for this.
Han Fei admired him very much.
If he were an ordinary king.
Maybe he would accept Han Fei's surrender, but he would never entrust him with a heavy responsibility.
After all, he is a surrendered minister after all.
"What do you think of Zhao Feng?" Ying Zheng asked another question.
"I dare not deceive the king. When Korea was destroyed, I was determined to die."
"The reason why I joined Da Qin was because General Zhao Feng persuaded me."
"I have always admired General Zhao Feng as a person. Later, when I saw General Zhao Feng's countless military exploits for the Qin Dynasty, I admired him even more."
"General Zhao Feng is a talented man with both civil and military skills, but his ministers are not as good as him."
"Perhaps no one in the world can match him." Han Fei said from the bottom of his heart.
Listening to Han Fei praise Zhao Feng so much.
Ying Zheng's face also showed a smile of relief, like an old father's.
"The Daliang refugee achievement was really given to you by Zhao Feng?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
"Indeed." Han Fei didn't lie to anything.
"This boy."
"I don't intend to take any credit at all." Ying Zheng smiled.
"General Zhao Feng said that he is a military general and does not value the governance performance of civil servants."
Seeing Ying Zheng speak so relaxedly, Han Fei also relaxed a lot and spoke more casually.
"He even dislikes credit." Ying Zheng was even more helpless.
Come to your senses.
Ying Zheng didn't give in anymore: "The reason why I let you serve as one of the nine ministers is because it is Zhao Feng's recommendation that governs the country's internal history."
"Gu, trust him."
"Similarly, I also trust you."
Hear this.
Han Fei immediately stood up and bowed: "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."
"You must remember how good Zhao Feng is, remember how Zhao Feng helped you, and more importantly, remember that you are alive because of Zhao Feng."
"alright."
"That's all."
"I don't have anything to say."
"Back off."
Ying Zheng waved his hand at Han Fei.
"I excuse myself."
Han Fei bowed.
But at the moment, my thoughts are very confusing.
"My lord, what does this mean today?"
"Is it just a matter of beating me?"
"But why do these three consecutive sentences about Brother Zhao make me remember how good he is? Remember how he helped me?"
"Why does this need to be mentioned with such emphasis?"
"How much does your Majesty value Brother Zhao? He actually said it to such an extent that he almost asked me to form a party with Brother Zhao for personal gain."
Han Fei's heart was extremely complicated.
It is with this complicated mood.
Han Fei walked out of Zhangtai Palace.
Look at his back.
The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth curled up.
"Feng'er."
"You have a good eye."
"Han Fei is a man who values love and justice."
"You can see that no matter what happens, he will try his best to help you."
"With the help of such a talented person in the future, you can avoid many things."
"Gu, what I can do for you is let Han Fei interact with you more freely." Ying Zheng smiled from the bottom of his heart.
No one knew what he was thinking at this moment except himself.
It was Han Fei.
After getting on the carriage leaving the palace, I suddenly thought of something.
