"I'm not sure about others, but King Qi Jian, you will definitely live a good life. If you are willing, you can even reserve a place among the Nine Qing Qings of Qin!" Jin Yao thought for a while and said seriously.
He was not sure about others, but with Qi Wang Jian's hand in Qi State, Qin State had accumulated such a reputation. If Qin State wanted to maintain the stability of Qi State, it must ensure that Qi Wang Jian lived well in Xianyang.
Even because Qi Wangjian's hands-on manipulation reflected his political skills, he naturally caught Ying Zheng's eye, and it was not difficult to give him the position of Jiuqing.
"Forget it, Jiu Qing. I actually envy you. Just do whatever you want to do. If you don't want to do it, just leave it alone!" Qi Wangjian smiled and shook his head.
As the king of a subjugated country, he went to Qin to serve as the nine ministers. He was afraid that while he was sleeping in the middle of the night, the ancestors of Qi would fall asleep and come to chat with him one day at a time, without the same thing three hundred and sixty-five days a year.
"Are you asleep? I'm not asleep yet!"
Thinking about Qi Wangjian makes me feel terrible!
Jin Yao shook his head bitterly. He could not do anything he wanted to do. Many times he was pushed away by a group of people.
"It should be almost done. When we return from this tour, Qin will be ready to destroy Qi, right?"
Qi Wangjian shook his head and forgot about the future.
If nothing else, after so long, Qin should be ready to accept Qi.
Jin Yao also shook his head. In these years, he really has not asked about the affairs of the Qin State's court, and he does not know whether Qin State is ready to take over Qi State now.
But I guess the time should be about the same.
Qin State, Xianyang.
It is the end of the year again. In addition to the generals who are away, all officials above the county level must also return to Xianyang to report on their duties. In particular, those officials who have just been sent to conquered countries must also return to Xianyang.
of.
At the end of the year, in addition to officials from all over the country returning to Beijing to report on their work, the court also discusses the administrative direction for the next year or even years.
Therefore, Ying Zheng and a group of nine ministers met with various governors and frontier officials from various places in the Qinian Palace.
However, this year's year-end dynasty is a little unusual.
Everyone also knows that three years have passed since the destruction of Chu State, and Qin State has enough ability to annex Qi State. This year's goal must be related to the destruction of Qi State.
However, something even more unexpected happened.
Former Prime Minister Lu Buwei resigned and went into seclusion. Right Prime Minister Wei Zhuang and Left Prime Minister Wang Wan also wrote a letter asking for their resignation.
Originally, everyone thought that Wei Zhuang and Wang Wan would only submit a letter to resign and relinquish their positions after the world was unified and they witnessed the unification of the Qin Dynasty.
But no one expected that they would retreat so decisively.
As a result, everyone had no time to react, and they didn't even choose their position, let alone who was more likely to become the new Prime Minister of Qin.
"Hahaha, our resignation will probably make the whole court, including His Majesty, a little dizzy!" The elderly Wei Zhuang and Wang Wan joined hands to spend some time fishing by the Ba Bridge.
They didn't tell anyone about their resignations in advance, and they didn't even wait for Ying Zheng's approval. They just left their official seals and court clothes and went into seclusion together.
"There are talented people in the country. If you don't retreat, you will be infamy for thousands of years!"
"Today's young people are more fierce than the last, so they have to obey their old age!"
Wang Wan also sighed with a smile.
The main reason that prompted them to retire was Lu Buwei's retirement, which made them think about it and felt that it was time for them to retire too.
They are the same age as Lu Buwei, but Lu Buwei has already become famous and has written books. A single reading of Lu Buwei is enough to make Lu Buwei's name go down in history.
But they haven’t yet!
If the unification of the world is delayed any longer, they are worried that they will not be able to keep up with the pace of the unified empire, their energy will no longer be able to keep up, and their minds will not be able to move.
Therefore, instead of blocking the way of young people, it is better to make way in advance and leave blessings to future generations instead of leaving a bunch of political enemies for future generations.
Especially since it’s too late for them to go home and write a book now. If they wait another two years, they worry that they won’t have the energy to write a book.
"What I'm curious about is, after you retire, who will be recommended to take over?" Wang Wan looked at Wei Zhuang and asked.
The Qin State respects the right. Although there are two prime ministers, the right prime minister is usually the leader, so Wang Wan is also curious about who Wei Zhuang recommends to succeed him.
Wei Zhuang smiled and said, "There are too many young people, so I recommended four people. As for who Your Majesty will choose in the end, I don't know!"
"Four?" Wang Wan was stunned, so many?
"Well, first of all, the young master, Long Jun, will be the king, then the governor, Shi Xiaoxu, the court captain, Li Si, and the imperial censor, Feng Quji!" Wei Zhuang said the candidates he was optimistic about.
"Dragon Lord!" Wang Wan twitched the corner of his mouth, he is the best candidate.
It's just that if Long Jun also participates in the phase battle, it will really be a dimensionality reduction blow. If Chenglong participates in the right phase battle, others will not have to compete at all.
In terms of status and achievements, Cheng Yu is the leader of the Qin Dynasty, and no one else can compare!
"What about you, who did you recommend?" Wei Zhuang looked at Wang Wan and asked.
"Censor Feng Quji, Tingwei Li Si, Zhi Su Nei Shi Xiaoxu, Dianke Qing Guo Kai!" Wang Wan also recommended four people, but there was one difference: Guo Kai.
"Guo Qing?" Wei Zhuang was obviously startled, and then patted his head, "Yes, why did I forget that there is this guy Guo Kai!"
"Looking at it this way, it's better for us to retreat. If any one of these young men comes out, they can pin us to the ground!" Wei Zhuang continued.
In Qinian Palace, Ying Zheng looked at the two sets of official uniforms, the two sets of official seals and the two resignation letters. He really had a headache.
These old guys have never thought about killing their donkeys, so why are they running away in such a hurry?
The most important thing is, just run. You only left one recommendation list. Now you have six, how should I choose!
In terms of merit, Cheng Yu must be the first choice for the right prime minister, but that guy ran away earlier than anyone else, how could he return to Xianyang to take up the post.
And in terms of reputation among the people, who can compare with Guo Kai, who presided over the land reform?
Let's talk about the ability to make money. He was in charge of Yanzhigou and delivered nearly one million taels of gold to the Qin Dynasty every year. No one could surpass him.
Then came Feng Quji, the imperial censor, who was a perfect complement.
The last Li Si was also the old man who had been with him before his rise, and he also coincided with him in governing the world after unification.
For a while, Ying Zheng couldn't make up his mind, and even felt that only two aspects were a bit lacking.
"If only that guy was willing to come back, I wouldn't have to make such a difficult decision!" After thinking about it, Ying Zheng was also a little angry.
If Cheng Yu honestly returns to Xianyang and stays there, he will truly deserve the position of the most noble right minister, and no one will have any objections.
"Guo Kai, Li Si, Feng Quji, Xiao Xu!" Ying Zheng frowned, looking at the list in front of him, it was really difficult to make a choice.
