Chapter 195: A reward for Zhao Feng! Ying Zheng’s domineering power!

Chapter 195 Rewards for Zhao Feng! Ying Zheng’s domineering power!

Hearing the reward given by Ying Zheng to Huan Yi.

In addition to some rewards of gold, silver, money, and beauties, there is also a promotion to the next level.

There are no surprises.

After all, Huan Yi led the Hangu camp to great achievements in this battle.

If there is no seal or reward, that would be unreasonable.

"Great King Shengming."

All the civil and military officials in the court said in unison.

But Ying Zheng's voice did not stop, and he said with a bit of contemplation: "As for Zhao Feng."

All the civil and military officials in the court focused their attention on Ying Zheng.

"Zhao Feng is the first to destroy Wei."

"Deserves a heavy reward."

"The water flooded the beams, preventing our great Qin warriors from being damaged, and preserving our great Qin's national strength. This is an even greater achievement."

"Pass the imperial edict."

"Zhao Feng has made great contributions to the country, and he will be promoted to the second level of the rank, and he will be granted the rank of [Common Commander of Si Chao], enjoy the title of annual salary, and enjoy the title of personal guard formation."

"I will give you ten thousand gold, one hundred thousand coins, a thousand pieces of jade, a thousand servants, the name of Zhao Feng's wife Wang Yan, and in addition to the title and annual salary, I will also give you thousands of acres of fertile land for the unowned."

Under the gaze of the officials, Ying Zheng spoke slowly.

The words fell.

Everyone in the court was shocked.

For Zhao Feng to be promoted to another title, everyone thought of such a reward.

But they didn't expect that Ying Zheng would give Zhao Feng two levels of nobility at once.

No one thought of it.

"Your Majesty."

"Absolutely not."

"When General Zhao Feng annihilated the Wei army in Yanggaocheng, the king had already graciously granted General Zhao Feng a first-level promotion."

"Now that I have been promoted to two levels, some of the rewards seem to be too generous."

"You know, General Wang Jian, who has the highest rank in our Great Qin, is only a sixteenth-level knight."

"Although Zhao Feng has made great achievements in battle, he is too young and has little qualifications."

"Please, Your Majesty, think twice."

Wang Wan immediately stood up and started playing loudly.

"The veteran seconded the proposal."

"My rank in the Great Qin Dynasty is twenty, and now General Zhao is already a very human minister. What if if I add this new title, he will never be able to have any title?"

"Your Majesty, please be careful." Wei Zhuang stood up immediately and said.

There was also a strong warning in his tone.

One seal cannot be sealed.

These four words.

Many ministers have died because of these four words throughout the ages.

The former Wu'an Lord Bai Qi was never like this.

He rose to the rank of Lieutenant of the State, reached the rank of twenty ranks, and became king by force of arms.

For him.

It has reached the point where it cannot be sealed.

And after that.

King Zhaoxiang of Qin Yingji issued an edict asking Bai Qi to lead the army to destroy Zhao. Since it was impossible to destroy Zhao, Bai Qi refused and was sentenced to death.

Wei Zhuang's seemingly careless words actually contained murderous intent.

If an ordinary emperor heard this sentence, he would definitely be alert and fearful.

and.

Wei Zhuang's sentence was not just about the sealless title, but also Wang Wan's previous sentence: Wang Jian was only a sixteenth-level peer.

But the real meaning is to put the relationship between Wang Jian and Zhao Feng on the bright side.

Wang Jian was originally a general with military power, and so was Zhao Feng, his son-in-law.

The two old foxes just didn't say that the combined military power of these two people could affect his position as King of Qin.

In this court room.

Many ministers can listen clearly and understand clearly.

But no one dared to speak at this moment.

"Wang Jian and Zhao Feng command a total of 600,000 to 700,000 troops. Such a serious danger cannot be avoided."

"Your Majesty, you should also treat this with caution."

"If you hold military power, you must be on guard."

"With such righteousness, the king will even be afraid of Zhao Feng." Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang sneered in their hearts.

The words have been spoken so clearly.

It seems to be a situation that must be faced, and no matter how you think about it, you can imagine that this is a losing situation between Wang Jian and Zhao Feng.

No emperor can tolerate this!

"According to what the two adults said."

"In our Great Qin Army, we can't judge by military merit, but by seniority and age?" Wang Jian stood up and said with a bit of coldness.

Wang Wan and the other two didn't wait for a reply.

Wang Jian looked at Ying Zheng in the high position again: "Your Majesty, from the mouths of these two prime ministers, it seems that I and Zhao Feng are the son-in-law of the father-in-law, so they became powerful and rebelled against your Majesty."

"If this arouses suspicion in the court, I feel that I and Zhao Feng have too much military power."

"My lord, I would like to resign from the post of captain of the guard of the Lantian camp, retire and return to my hometown."

Wang Jian came directly with a big wave.

Retire old and return home.

As soon as these words fell.

The ministers in the court all looked at each other.

Now that Wang Jian is in his prime, why is he old?

But looking at the meaning of Wang Jian's words, it was obvious that he was serious.

Although there is a hidden meaning in Wang Wan's words.

But what they say is indeed true.

For any emperor, military power is extremely important. Even the most powerful emperor will be wary and suppressive of his ministers, and will have ears and eyes around them.

Although civil servants have power, it is not enough to disrupt their power because they have no soldiers.

But the military ministers hold military power, especially the generals who hold hundreds of thousands of troops. This influence is too great and must be guarded against.

Know people, know faces, but don’t know hearts.

Even the emperor is like this. He gives authority to his ministers, but if the ministers have rebellious intentions, that is not necessarily the case.

Wang Jian, as the captain of the guard of the Lantian camp, and Zhao Feng, as the captain of the guard of the Wu'an camp, hold more than 600,000 troops. If the two men conspire to rebel, who in the Qin Dynasty can stop them?

This situation seemed unbearable for any emperor.

then.

It may have been a great favor for Ying Zheng to allow his daughter from the Wang family to marry Zhao Feng. After all, Zhao Feng had not reached such a level and power at that time.

Now that I talk about it, it seems a little different.

"Wang Jian, don't talk nonsense."

Meng Wu stood up and said to Wang Jian.

There was also a hint of admonishment in his eyes, signaling Wang Jian to stop talking.

Although the two of them are constantly fighting with each other, they are both trying to take the fight one step further.

But now that he heard Wang Jian say that he was going to retire and return to his hometown, Meng Wu naturally couldn't stand anymore.

"I'm not talking nonsense."

"Since the two prime ministers have said that Zhao Feng and I are the son-in-law and control most of the military power of the Qin Dynasty, I will retire and return home today to avoid making others unhappy." Wang Jian said with a cold look on his face.

Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang did not say anything about this either.

It seems that they are also happy to see this scene.

after all.

The combined power of Zhao Feng and Wang Jian was too great.

Although today's move seemed to offend the two of them, considering Zhao Feng's original attitude towards them, it seemed that he had already offended them.

If Wang Jian can be made to give up his military power, this seems to be a good thing.

now.

Fusu didn't speak.

Hu Hai did not speak.

Obviously.

In their view, the combination of Wang Jian and Zhao Feng's families was too powerful.

They all yearned for the position of prince, and naturally they also thought about the future. It was indeed not a good thing for such a powerful minister.

But no one noticed.

When he heard that Wang Jian was retiring and returning home for Zhao Feng, Ying Zheng's eyes showed a hint of relief.

"Feng'er."

"You have found a good father-in-law."

"In this way, Gu Dui will feel more at ease with him."

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian with great satisfaction.

This time.

It also allowed Ying Zheng to see Wang Jian's friendship for Zhao Feng.

He has such a high position of power as a general but is willing to give it up for Zhao Feng.

Ying Zheng, a father, also felt that Zhao Feng really chose the right person.

At this time!

Ying Zheng spoke: "Okay."

All the ministers' eyes were focused on the high position.

now.

Wang Jian has already asked for orders to retire and return to his hometown, and the final decision-making power obviously lies with Ying Zheng.

In the opinion of many ministers.

Now Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang have put the two sons-in-law Wang Jian and Zhao Feng on the fire. For any emperor, it is impossible for the two sons-in-law to control 600,000 troops, almost half of the military power of the Qin Dynasty. Accepted.

For the majesty of being a king, power and position!

All have a great impact.

so.

Ying Zheng will most likely agree to Wang Jian's resignation, or else he will let Wang Jian idle.

"Wang Qing is now in his prime, how can he tell you why he should return to his hometown when he is old?"

"Pretend I've never heard of this before." Ying Zheng said slowly.

As soon as these words fell.

All civil and military officials in the court looked at Ying Zheng in shock.

Such a great opportunity to relinquish military power, Ying Zheng actually refused.

Even Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang, who were like old foxes, looked surprised at this moment.

"What happened to the king?"

"This time we have handed the king a knife that can legitimately reduce his power, but he doesn't accept it?"

"Is it possible that your Majesty is really not worried at all about whether Wang Jian and Zhao Feng will get along?"

"Even if the king is not worried, he still has to think about the future."

"A great king, with great talent and great strategy, can conquer everything, but in the future, not everyone will be a great king."

Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang were in extremely complicated moods at this moment.

They couldn't figure out why Ying Zheng would give up this opportunity.

Although Zhao Feng is not Wang Jian's son, he is still half a son.

It can also be said that he is a double general.

Isn't this enough to make Ying Zheng afraid?

"Your Majesty."

"My lords' worries are not unreasonable."

"My Wang family and Zhao Feng have to bear too much kindness from the king." Wang Jian bowed to Ying Zheng and said.

"This is Wang En."

"Your Wang family can afford it."

"Zhao Feng can also bear it."

"The so-called having too much power may lead to war disaster."

"I don't care."

"Because, since this military power can be given to me, I believe in your loyalty."

"Similarly." "If one day it turns out to be what Zhu Qing fears, Gu will naturally be able to hold it down." Ying Zheng's voice was filled with endless domineering force.

"Great King Shengming."

Wei Liao stood up and echoed loudly.

Looking at Wei Liao who stood up.

It has reached the current situation.

The ministers could only bow and shout: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Wang Qing."

"There is no need to mention the so-called matter of retiring from old age and returning home in the future."

"Gu, you are not the kind of jealous king."

"It's not just you. As long as the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty are loyal to Gu and loyal to Da Qin, Gu will never treat him poorly." Ying Zheng looked down at the court and said with authority.

This sentence is not just for Wang Jian.

It was also said to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

certainly!

Ying Zheng's words are not empty talk, but contain the infinite domineering power of an emperor. Tolerance is great.

And historically.

Ying Zheng indeed did it.

After unifying the world, he never killed any hero.

He has never used the so-called emperor's suspicion.

He possesses the imperial self-confidence that looks down on everything, and his self-confidence can conquer everything.

That's exactly what it is.

When he was alive, he dominated the world.

Overwhelm everything.

But after he died of illness, the world was in chaos and Qin II died.

Listening to Ying Zheng's confident words.

Wang Wan and the others didn't say anything anymore.

Obviously.

Their sudden calculation was wrong.

This move.

Not only did they fail to achieve results, they even offended Wang Jian and Zhao Feng to death.

"Wei Qing."

"Did you hear Zhao Feng's reward clearly?"

Ying Zheng looked at Wei Liao.

"I heard you clearly," Wei Liao said immediately.

"I will reward you according to this edict." Ying Zheng said again.

These words are already the final word.

No more changes.

Just now, Wang Wan and the others used the relationship between the Wang family and Zhao Feng to arouse Ying Zheng's fear, and now they have no reason to object.

The so-called qualifications are a joke.

And Zhao Feng had indeed accomplished the feat of destroying the country, and they did not use the merit as an excuse to stop him.

"I accept the edict." Wei Liao responded immediately.

"Your Majesty."

"One more thing."

"Although flooding the beam is a unique feat."

"Destroyed the Wei army with the overturning power of the Hongze, and made our Qin army bloodless."

"But there will be a great epidemic after Hongze."

"If handled carelessly, the epidemic may spread. Once the epidemic spreads, it will be cholera in the Qin Dynasty."

"So, this matter still needs to be decided by the king himself." Feng Quji stood up and said.

"Doctor Xia, you are the best doctor in the world."

"What are your thoughts on this epidemic?" Ying Zheng looked at Xia Wuji.

"Return to the king."

"The source of the great epidemic lies in corpses. As long as the corpses in Daliang City are cleaned up, buried in loess, and burned with fire, the great epidemic may be avoided."

"After Daliang City was overturned by floods, it was no longer possible to live in it."

"The old minister proposed that Daliang City be abandoned and sealed off from now on. All the corpses in the city should be buried in Daliang City and Daliang be sealed off. This can greatly prevent the occurrence of the epidemic." Xia Wuji said immediately.

"My lords, have you heard this?"

"A major epidemic is not bound to happen. As long as proper prevention is done, it can be controlled." Ying Zheng said immediately.

"Your Majesty."

"This matter may require Dr. Xia's personal guidance." Wang Wan said.

"I would like to lead the doctors of the Great Medical Palace to the Kingdom of Wei in person." Xia Wuji immediately asked for orders without any hesitation.

"Can Dr. Xia's body bear such a long journey?"

The first thing Ying Zheng thought of was Xia Wuji's body.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"I have a very strong body, and I am still waiting for the day when the Qin Dynasty will be unified." Xia Wuji replied with a smile.

This remark is naturally a pun.

Now my daughter has been found.

But Xia Wuqie also wanted to see the day when his daughter would marry Ying Zheng in all her glory.

For this day.

Xia Wuqi will see it no matter what.

Hear this.

Ying Zheng smiled: "That's good."

"Ren Xiao."

Ying Zheng shouted loudly.

"I'm here."

Ren Xiao outside the main hall responded immediately.

"Call 5,000 Imperial Guards, and you will personally lead and protect Doctor Xia and the doctors from the Palace of Medicine as they go to Wei."

"The Kingdom of Wei is not yet fully under control, so you must protect him." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

"I accept the edict." Ren Xiao immediately accepted the edict.

"Doctor Xia."

"After you go to Wei, remember not to stay away from the imperial guards, let alone the military camp."

"You directly tell Zhao Feng how to prevent and control the epidemic and how to respond. You only need to give orders and do not need to do it yourself." Ying Zheng looked at Xia Wuji and warned.

"Old minister understands."

Xia Wuqie naturally nodded in agreement to Ying Zheng's concern.

Finished explaining.

Ying Zheng was still a little worried, so he first said to the court officials: "Okay."

"Today is not a court meeting. Is there anything else you would like to mention?"

"If not, let's disperse."

Hear the sound.

All the ministers bowed to Ying Zheng one after another: "I have no basis to start this memorial."

"kindness."

"Then let's disperse."

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

He stood up slowly, but his eyes fell on Xia Wuji and Wang Jian.

"Doctor Xia."

"Wang Qing."

"Enter Zhangtai Palace for a brief introduction."

Finished.

Ying Zheng turned around and walked towards the back hall.

"I respectfully send you off to your Majesty."

The ministers bowed again.

Wait until Ying Zheng's figure completely left the hall.

The ministers slowly dispersed.

Wang Jian slowly walked up to Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang and glanced at them: "Humph."

After snorting coldly.

There was no concealment of the coldness in Wang Jian's eyes.

Although nothing was said, the meaning was already clear.

I felt Wang Jian's coldness.

Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang did not dare to say anything.

They understand.

From now on, Wang Jian may stand on their opposite side.

"Two prime ministers."

"What should be said and what should not be said."

"It seems that although you are old, you still haven't seen it through."

Li Si walked over slowly. He watched the court meeting from beginning to end, but said nothing.

But at this moment.

But he couldn't help but sneered.

"Wei Ting seems very proud."

"But don't get too carried away."

Wang Wan replied coldly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang."

"I will never be too complacent under any circumstances."

Li Si said loudly, then slowly came closer and whispered: "It's just that this time you have completely offended the Wang family and the Zhao family."

"It will be even more difficult for you to support the eldest son in the future."

"The king values ​​General Zhao Feng very highly, and his opinions are also very important."

"I hope you can still laugh like this in the future."

Finished.

Li Si strode away without looking back. Looking at his bold steps, one can imagine how happy he was at this moment.

Looking at Li Si's back.

Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang both had a cold look in their eyes. When their eyes met, they were obviously planning to get together to make some plans.

Many ministers, on the other hand, had a bit of a theatrical mentality. The situation seemed to have completely changed this time.

"The Wang family and the two prime ministers are at loggerheads."

"The Wang Xiang and others support the eldest son, but now they have created two strong enemies for the eldest son."

"This way."

"The candidate for the future crown prince position is really unpredictable."

"Fortunately, I didn't participate in the dispute between the young masters, otherwise it would have been really hard for the whole family to get involved."



Because of Wang Wan's move, some changes occurred in the hearts of the ministers in the court.

When Hu Hai walked down the stairs.

When he walked to Fusu's side.

"Brother."

"Your two supporters have created two powerful enemies for you."

"later."

"You really have to be careful." Hu Hai reminded with a sneer.

Then he strode away.

Fusu's face was calm, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
