Chapter 201： Wang Jian: Your Majesty is paving the way for Zhao Feng again!

Chapter 201 Wang Jian: Your Majesty is paving the way for Zhao Feng again!

Looking at the figure of King Wei being taken away.

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

Immediately, the imperial guards picked up the box containing the royal seal and map from the ground.

immediately.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng in front of him and smiled gently.

"Zhao Feng."

"Follow me into the palace."

Without waiting for Zhao Feng to speak.

Ying Zheng stepped forward.

He directly grabbed Zhao Feng's right arm and pulled him towards the meeting hall.

Zhao Feng followed Ying Zheng's lead and walked towards it.

I saw Ying Zheng entering the court meeting hall.

After waiting for a moment, the ministers also walked towards the main hall in an orderly manner.

In the court meeting hall!

Still extremely majestic.

Zhao Feng was pulled directly to the steps in front of the throne by Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng did not sit down immediately, but looked at the ministers in front.

"Your Majesty."

"Zhao Feng returns triumphantly from defeating Wei."

"This is the joy of Gu Gu and the joy of Da Qin."

"From now on, the three Jin Dynasties will return to Qin Dynasty."

Ying Zheng laughed loudly and said to Manchao Wenwu Dao.

"Congratulations to the king."

"Congratulations to Great Qin."

All the civil and military officials in the court raised their imperial huts and shouted.

"Zhao Gao, declare the edict."

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

All civil and military officials in the court were shocked, looking at Ying Zheng with surprised and puzzled expressions, and then at Zhao Gao, who was holding the imperial edict.

"Is it possible that the king still has a reward for Zhao Feng?"

Many ministers couldn't help but think to themselves.

Zhao Feng has been given a two-level title promotion before, so there shouldn't be another title now, right?

Under the watch of the courtiers.

Zhao Gao opened the imperial edict and read loudly: "Edict of the King of Qin!"

"Zhao Feng, the captain of the Wu'an camp guard, has made great contributions to the country. The fall of the three Jin Dynasties and the expansion of the territory of our Qin Dynasty are all due to Zhao Feng's contribution."

"Today, I feel so relieved to be alone."

"Give Zhao Feng no rush when he enters the court, no name for praise and worship, and no shame for walking in the palace with swords and shoes."

The words fell.

Everyone in the court was shocked.

Everyone's eyes fell on Zhao Feng, and then they looked at Ying Zheng anxiously from the corner of their eyes.

In this era.

No matter civil servants or military generals, everyone carries a sword.

Wu style is the style of this era.

But enter the palace to see him.

There must be guards searching at the entrance of the palace. You are not allowed to wear weapons or wear shoes into the palace.

There is also a rack specially placed for swords outside the temple.

The shoes will also be kept by special eunuchs.

But this time Zhao Feng was given such an honor.

Then there is no need to take off your shoes to go to the temple, and you can enter the temple wearing a sword.

Except for Zhao Feng, no one else in the entire court received this honor.

All the ministers in the hall looked at him in shock, unable to recover for a long time.

This kind of authority is given.

It came from King Qin’s absolute trust in Zhao Feng.

Going to the palace with weapons is naturally a threat to the king.

What's more, Zhao Feng is a military commander who has experienced hundreds of battles.

Countless people died under his sword. If Zhao Feng wanted to harm the King of Qin, he could really do it.

But obviously.

King Qin's trust in him can also be seen in this imperial edict.

perhaps.

This was also a great gift given to Zhao Feng after he returned to the court, and it directly shattered most of the rumors in the court these days that King Qin wanted to suppress the Wang family and the Zhao family.

"If you don't follow the rules when you enter the court, you won't be praised and worshiped, you will go to the palace with swords and shoes!"

"Isn't this the standard equipment for rebellious ministers and traitors in later generations?"

"The King of Qin actually installed it for me."

Listening to these three extremely familiar sentences, Zhao Feng couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Thinking of later generations in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Dong Zhuo?

Cao Cao?

Aren't they just given such authority that they are above the courtiers and officials?

"General, please accept the edict."

Zhao Gao turned around and looked at Zhao Fengdao respectfully.

"Your Majesty."

"This kind of authority is too great, and I cannot bear it."

Zhao Feng immediately turned around and bowed to Ying Zheng.

"You can bear what I have given you."

Ying Zheng smiled, but his words were unmistakable.

"Take the imperial edict."

Ying Zheng said with authority.

See this.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Zhao Feng bowed and took the Wang Zhao from Zhao Gao's hand.

"Take a seat."

Ying Zheng smiled and faced Zhao Fengdao.

"promise."

Zhao Feng immediately responded and walked towards his position holding the Wang Zhao.

When I reached the line of military officials.

The first position of the military minister where his father-in-law originally sat has been vacant. At this moment, Wang Jian is sitting in the second position. Looking at Zhao Feng who has arrived, a smile appears on his face.

Obviously.

Now Zhao Feng has reached the seventeenth level of nobility. He is the well-deserved No. 1 person in the entire Qin Dynasty, and he is also the chief among the military officials.

Now return to the court.

The position of the head of the military ministers naturally belongs to Zhao Feng.

"father in law."

When you get closer.

Zhao Feng lowered his voice and shouted.

"Sit down, we can talk about anything when we go home." Wang Jian smiled.

Watching Zhao Feng return.

Wang Jian was naturally happy.

Especially when I think about what is deep in my heart, it is even more beautiful.

My son-in-law is the eldest son of Da Qin.

"kindness."

Zhao Feng nodded and took his seat directly.

When he saw Meng Wu on Wang Jian's right, Zhao Feng nodded slightly.

Meng Wu naturally nodded in return.

After taking a seat.

Zhao Feng also keenly felt many eyes falling on him.

Especially directly opposite.

Wang Wan looked at him with a gloomy expression, as if secretly.

Feeling Wang Wan's gaze, Zhao Feng showed no fear at all. He raised his head and directly faced Wang Wan's sneaking gaze, with a sneer on his face and no concealment of murderous intent.

once.

Zhao Feng may be a little tolerant towards them and doesn't bother to argue with them, but since they have repeatedly targeted them, they are breaking up, and there is no need for Zhao Feng to be afraid of them.

He felt the murderous intent in Zhao Feng's eyes.

Wang Wan's body trembled, as if he was being targeted by a ferocious beast.

He didn't dare to look anymore and could only lower his head.

"Old thing."

Zhao Feng cursed in a low voice and ignored it.

Yan Ting has already taken action. As long as there is enough evidence, Zhao Feng will kill him.

"Now that the Kingdom of Wei has fallen, all the territory has been controlled by me, the Qin Dynasty."

"For the governance of Wei, I wonder if any of the ministers can be recommended?" Ying Zheng looked down at the court and said authoritatively.

"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."

"I recommend Wang Wen to be your minister."

"As the son of the prime minister, Wang Wen handles government affairs well and is capable of governing a country."

Chunyu Yue stood up directly and recommended.

"Father."

"I do have someone to choose from."

Hu Hai turned around and bowed to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng said nothing and looked at Hu Hai calmly.

"I recommend Mr. Hu Ju. In terms of official position, he has the rank of minister, so he can definitely take on a big responsibility." Hu Hai said loudly.

Fusu stood up at this moment: "Master Hu Ju may have some talents, but he is still inferior to Master Meng Yi. I recommend Master Meng Yi to take on this important position."

"My lord, I recommend you to the doctor Yao Jia." Li Si stood up and shouted very calmly.

For a while.

There are many people recommending him in this court.

no doubt.

In this era.

Almost all officials were born into or raised by wealthy families.

People from poor families and common people rarely stand out.

certainly.

Da Qin was the first to break this point, and the military merit system was the basis for breaking this point.

It's just that the military merit system was broken only by the army, and there was no officialdom dominated by civil servants.

scholarship.

It is not something that can be obtained by fighting on the battlefield.

There is a long way to go to change this pattern.

"As expected, there are many factions."

"They are all fighting."

Zhao Feng watched this scene silently, with a bit of a theater mentality.

Just like how we governed Han and Zhao in the past.

The same goes for governing Wei, which is a great achievement.

Looking at the noisy court, Ying Zheng did not feel any disturbance.

It was only when the voices of recommendation stopped.

Ying Zheng then spoke slowly: "Have you finished recommending them?"

His eyes swept over. The ministers in the court were silent.

This is the way of a true king.

No matter how courtiers quarrel, the real decision-making power still lies in the hands of the King of Qin.

In this era of supremacy of royal power, all ministers can do is make suggestions and start memorials.

"Zhao Feng."

"Do you have any candidates for the governance of Wei?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng and asked.

A question came out of the blue.

Zhao Feng was a little confused.

All the civil and military eyes of the court once again fell on Zhao Feng.

"Return to the king."

"I am a military minister, and I don't know how to govern civil servants."

"It's better to ask the ministers about whom to recommend." Zhao Feng replied calmly, holding his fists in his hands.

"Precisely because you are a military minister and know more about capable officials, I asked you to recommend them." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

Hear this.

The eyes of those who originally recommended the cronies darkened immediately.

But in the entire court, perhaps the only person who really knew about it was Wang Jian.

"Your Majesty is paving the way for Zhao Feng."

"In the army, Zhao Feng's current reputation is unmatched by anyone."

"But Zhao Feng does not have much prestige in the court. Most of the courtiers are supporters of Fusu and Hu Hai."

"Your Majesty is asking Zhao Feng to arrange for his people to perform meritorious service, and he will also have his team in the court in the future." Wang Jian knew it in his heart.

He naturally understood what Ying Zheng meant.

After all, it is an open-book exam.

If Wang Jian couldn't guess this, he would be stupid.

"The king really wants me to recommend him?" Zhao Feng smiled and asked again.

"You have no joke." Ying Zheng smiled.

"I think there is someone suitable for me."

"I wonder if your Majesty has any impression of Shaqiu County?" Zhao Feng asked.

"Of course." Ying Zheng said casually.

In the past, Shaqiu County may have been just a small county within the Qin Empire, but with the emergence of Zhao Feng, Shaqiu County is now famous all over the world.

Anyone who knows Zhao Feng knows that he is from Shaqiu County, and Shaqiu became famous because of Zhao Feng.

"The former Shaqiu County guard was strict with his troops and managed the county very well."

"Zhao Di was transferred to Han Fei a few years ago as his deputy. He has the ability to handle government affairs."

"I recommend Yan Bing to be the official in charge of the land in Wei." Zhao Feng said immediately.

Now that he had said it, Zhao Feng wouldn't be pretentious.

Anyway, the person recommended it, and it’s up to the king whether he approves it or not.

after all.

Above this court.

Among the officials in the world.

Except Han Fei.

The only person Zhao Feng is most familiar with is Yan Bing, and Yan Bing has expressed his intention to surrender to him, so Zhao Feng will naturally arrange for his own people to go up.

After all, the successful governance of Wei is also a great achievement.

When he returns to the capital of Qin one day, he will certainly be able to serve as a senior official or minister, not to mention joining the Nine Ministers.

"Since it was recommended by Zhao Qing."

"Gu, I agree." Ying Zheng said immediately.

Hearing Ying Zheng's voice.

Wang Wan was a little anxious: "Your Majesty, I have never heard of this county governor, and I don't know what his talent is. Do you need to think carefully about it?"

"I second my opinion."

"Wei is the top priority. I think it is better to consider the important ministers in the court. The local officials may have merit, but in the end they still lack qualifications."

"This matter needs to be carefully considered."

The court officials who had been recommended just now stood up one after another.

To this.

Ying Zheng glanced at them and ignored their words.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "Fu Su, Hu Hai."

"It's been so long since I've been in charge of the government during this period, so I'll give you a chance to make a recommendation."

"We will discuss this after you return home."

"I allow each of you to recommend one person to be your deputy."

Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

The words fell.

The court, which was originally full of objections, suddenly became quiet.

After all, judging from Ying Zheng's intention, the matter has been decided, and although he did not get the position of chief official, he at least had a deputy position, which can be regarded as participating and gaining the merit of governance.

"alright."

"Continue the discussion." Ying Zheng waved his hand, indicating to the courtiers to continue.

"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."

"Now everything in Zhao land has been taken care of."

"Now it's more than half a month before Han Fei's return to the DPRK is overdue."

"I wonder why Mr. Han Fei hasn't returned to the capital to report on his duties?"

As the imperial censor, Feng Jie stood up and sang loudly.

Yushitai.

It is the duty of supervising the officials of the imperial court.

Feng Jie, the imperial censor, is the chief among them. Although he has not entered the Jiuqing, his position is higher than that of the Jiuqing.

"This matter."

"I can explain it to Master Han Fei."

Zhao Feng spoke up again.

Ying Zheng turned his attention to Zhao Feng.

"When Master Han Fei received the imperial edict and returned to the capital to report on his duties, he heard that Daliang City had been destroyed by floods and that there were countless refugees."

"So I led my subordinate officers to Daliang."

"Thanks to Mr. Han Fei for his efforts, he managed hundreds of thousands of refugees and built a new city for them."

"Master Han Fei is indispensable for the management of refugees in Daliang and the fact that the epidemic did not occur." Zhao Feng said loudly.

Hear this!

Ying Zheng nodded with a slightly strange look in his eyes and thought to himself: "Hei Bingtai reported that the only courtier who was close to Feng'er was Han Fei. It was because of Feng'er that Han Fei surrendered to Great Qin. Now it seems that this It’s true.”

"Always."

"When Han Fei was in court."

"Whenever someone in the court targets Feng'er, Han Fei is the first to speak."

"The two of them have a great relationship."

Just for a moment.

Ying Zheng clarified the relationship between Zhao Feng and Han Fei.

"It seems."

"Han Fei is not only right, but also meritorious."

Before Feng Jie spoke again, Ying Zheng spoke directly to define the matter.

Seeing this, Feng Jie bowed directly and said, "I'm overthinking it."

Finished.

He just stepped back.

"Pass the edict to Han Fei."

"He is currently governing the Wei region. I have sent him an urgent edict to let his deputy, Yan Bing, take charge of the governance of the Wei region. After all the officials have left for the Wei region, he will return to the capital to report on his duties." Ying Zheng said slowly. .

The minister in charge of writing the edict responded immediately.

The meeting continued.

Most of what was discussed was matters related to Wei.

Wait until the meeting is over.

It was already evening.

Inside Zhangtai Palace!

The banquet has been set.

This is a banquet specially set for Zhao Feng's triumph.

It’s just that there are only two people, Ying Zheng and Zhao Feng.

"Destroy a country in half a year."

"You really fought well in this battle."

"Originally, I thought it would take at least a year, or even longer." Ying Zheng smiled and praised Zhao Feng.

This battle.

Outstanding indeed.

Although it is half a year.

But if we count from the time when King Wei surrendered, it would be five months.

The time after that is the time lost in taking over the city of Wei.

"Hangu Camp also contributed a lot in this battle. If Hangu Camp had not held back half of Wei's military strength, our Wu'an Camp would not have been able to attack Daliang directly." Zhao Feng said modestly.

"Regardless of the Hangu camp, even the containment on the top of any camp is enough."

"The main merit of this battle lies with you." Ying Zheng smiled, directly revealing Zhao Feng's modesty.

"When I returned to Xianyang, I heard some news."

"Someone in the court is impeaching the minister and his father-in-law for having too much military power, and there is a fear of a mutiny. I wonder if this is true?" Zhao Feng asked tentatively.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng and smiled: "What? Are you testing Gu?"

"I dare not test the king."

"I'm just very curious about these rumors." Zhao Feng immediately replied with a smile.

But deep down in my heart.

Zhao Feng was also a little helpless: "The King of Qin is too wise, and he can see through the meaning with just one sentence."

"Throughout the ages."

"It is said that it is difficult to get along with a faint king, but it is even more difficult to follow such a wise king and a kingly sage." Zhao Feng thought secretly in his heart.

Look at Zhao Feng like this.

Ying Zheng just smiled slightly: "Do you think Gu is the kind of king who is afraid of his subordinates?"

Hear this!

Zhao Feng shook his head without any hesitation: "Your Majesty is not like that."

"so."

"Even if there are calls for impeachment in the court, it depends on Gu whether he is afraid or not."

"Do you think Gu Hui will target Wang Jian and you because of this?" Ying Zheng said with a bit of a smile.

Zhao Feng nodded and smiled: "I don't think the king knows how to do it."

"so."

"Why do you care about those rumors?"

"As long as you are alone, who dares to touch the Wang family? Who dares to touch you?" Ying Zheng said with a strong defensive tone.

That's it.

Zhao Feng didn't say anything more about the matter.

Look.

My father-in-law had a bad look on his face after leaving Zhangtai Palace that day. This was definitely a hidden secret, so people in the palace saw it and misunderstood him.

"But this is fine."

"Let the court feel that the king is wary of us, and they will stop playing tricks." Zhao Feng thought to himself.

Ying Zheng picked up the wine pot, poured himself a bottle of wine, and poured another bottle for Zhao Feng.

Then he asked with a smile: "Who do you think you will make the crown prince in the future?"
