Chapter 40 Everyone is in this kind of place, why are you so educated?
After Meng Tian heard Qin Feng explain what happened in the main hall, he was stunned and his face was full of disbelief.
He glanced at Fusu who was squatting at the door, holding a bowl as big as his face and struggling to put his hands into his mouth to roll out the noodles. He felt a little unbelievable.
He has known Fusu for many years. This delicate and frail boy has changed a lot in just half a year, right?
Logically speaking, Fusu should kneel down in the court and speak to the Confucian scholars sincerely.
Why did you get into a big fight in the court? And your clothes were stripped off? Are you really learning from Confucius?
"You two don't take me with you when you go out to play! It's so exciting, it would be great if I had to punch Lu Yu!"
Qin Feng carefully rolled up a piece of crispy roast duck skin and fragrant soft duck meat with a pancake, picked up some shredded green onion, dipped it in some sweet sauce, put it in, and took a delicious bite.
Then he glanced at Meng Tian's calloused right hand and shook his head:
"No, Fusu can only hit Lu Yu with one punch and he will be in pain. If you punch him, he may die on the spot."
Meng Tian took a mouthful of egg fried rice, curled his lips and said:
"What's wrong with being torn apart by a car anyway and being beaten to death by me?"
Qin Feng frowned and lectured:
"We are all civilized people, so don't be so rude and just behave like me all day long, okay?"
Do you understand etiquette? How can you kill people in the court?"
Meng Tian couldn't help but rolled his eyes:
"Then Lu Yu was imprisoned by the king in the end?"
"No, Lu Yu finally bit the poison in his teeth and committed suicide."
Meng Tian frowned immediately, put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and said:
"Suicide? How dare this charlatan have such courage? That shouldn't be the case!
There must be something wrong behind this person's life. We must investigate who it is who dares to send a charlatan to deceive the king!
Such a heinous crime of deceiving the emperor must not be tolerated!"
Qin Feng took a sip of the rich and mellow duck blood soup. He felt a little helpless without fans.
"Your Majesty did not allow the investigation, so this matter is not allowed to be mentioned again."
"Why? Didn't you explain the key to the king?"
"You can think of it, but the king can't think of it?
Your Majesty should already know who is causing the trouble, but he just doesn't want to pursue it."
Meng Tian was stunned and blurted out:
"Prime Minister Chang Ping-Jun did it?!"
Qin Feng nodded:
"Mr. Changping has asked himself to resign as prime minister. He will temporarily take over as prime minister until the new prime minister takes office.
However, this matter was probably not done by Mr. Chang Ping. This little trick was most likely done by Xiong Hua himself without telling Mr. Chang Ping.
In the end, I didn’t expect that I would ruin the situation, so I had no choice but to abandon my car to protect my coach.”
Meng Tian was even more shocked when he heard this.
He has stayed in Shanglinyuan for too long to supervise the work, and he does not know the information in the court.
Lord Changping has resigned as prime minister! This is a big deal!
The Prime Minister of Great Qin is not an individual, but the spokesperson of interest groups!
Lord Changping represents the Chu forces. Since Empress Dowager Xuan of the Qin Dynasty descended, the Chu forces have become a force that cannot be ignored in the Qin court!
Whether Yingzheng succeeds to the throne or stabilizes the situation, we all rely on them!
Now that Lord Changping has asked to resign, I am afraid it will cause an uproar!
Perhaps, the Chu clan is about to withdraw from the Qin Dynasty.
And the battle to destroy Chu is about to begin!
The two powerful empires across the land of China have been fighting for hundreds of years, and they are finally about to face the final battle!
A strange light flashed in Meng Tian's eyes. It was a foregone conclusion that the Chu clan would withdraw. Someone had to fill the huge power vacuum left behind.
The Meng family has been loyal and loyal for generations, staining the battlefield with blood for the Qin Dynasty. Can they go further at this time?
Qin Feng glanced at Meng Tian, knocked on his bowl and chopsticks, and said dissatisfied:
"Have a meal!"
Meng Tian was suddenly interrupted from his thoughts and glanced at Qin Feng with some resentment.
"If you still recognize me as your elder brother, just listen to my advice."
Meng Tian was stunned for a moment. In his impression, Qin Feng seemed to have never spoken to him so seriously.
He looked at Qin Feng, who was seriously dealing with the roast duck burrito, and said with dissatisfaction:
"What are you talking about! Do you no longer regard me as a brother? You will always be my big brother!"
Qin Feng nodded, stuffed the wrapped roast duck burrito into Meng Tian, wiped his hands and said:
"There are many people who covet the position of prime minister, but not many are qualified.
First, the two brothers Feng Quji and Feng Jie represent the interests of the old Qin people. As the Six Kingdoms are about to be destroyed, the old Qin people become more and more powerful in the court.
Second, continue to select a member of the Ying clan to serve as the prime minister, but he has the name but no power, and is just a puppet.
Thirdly, Li Si, the group of foreign ministers from six foreign countries represented by Uncle Mengwu, has always been very powerful, capable, and is close to and trusted by the king."
Meng Tian was shocked as he watched Qin Feng talk eloquently.
Damn it! Everyone is farming in remote areas, why are you so literate?
"Wait a minute! I'll write it down!"
Qin Feng rolled his eyes:
"Don't embarrass me here!"
Meng Tian scratched his head and asked angrily:
"In that case, my father also has a chance."
Qin Feng patted his belly, took a sip of shaved ice juice, and asked:
"Does your father have a chance, or is he competing with Li Si?"
Meng Tian suddenly realized!
He is not stupid, but very smart!
Li Si and Meng Wu were the guest leaders of the Six Kingdoms who came to Qin. On weekdays, they complemented each other in both civility and military affairs, but when faced with the position of Prime Minister of Qin, it was easy for them to turn against each other!
That is a position below one person and above tens of thousands of people!
The honor of entering the court without being followed, being praised and worshiped without being praised, and going to the palace with swords and shoes is the dream of countless ministers!
But once Li Si turns against him, let alone whether Meng Wu can suppress them, the forces behind them will inevitably split!
By then it will be a foregone conclusion that the forces of Lao Qin will suppress them, and the Meng family will also have an extremely powerful enemy!
This is a lose-lose situation with no winner.
This move will even arouse the dissatisfaction of King Qin. By then, the Meng family will probably decline!
Meng Tian's back was soaked with cold sweat. Things like politics are indeed extremely insidious and elusive!
Qin Feng pushed another cup of shaved ice on the table to him and comforted:
"Don't be afraid, Uncle Meng will not be as reckless as you. He will definitely not compete for the position of prime minister, and will even fully support Li Si.
Li Si studied under the Legalists and had a strong desire for power. He must be grateful to have the support of the Meng family.
In this way, the Meng family will gain a firm ally and future protection."
[But it’s useless. You, Meng Tian, are destined to be on Fusu’s side. The conflict with Li Si cannot be reconciled. When the time comes, life and death will have to be decided. 】
[When the Qin Dynasty is unified, I will take over the fiefdom of Hainan and vacation every day, it will be very beautiful!]
Meng Tian swallowed hard, nodded and said:
"That's fine. Li Si and my family are still old, so it would be a good thing for him to become the prime minister."
Qin Feng stretched and lay lazily on the soft bed. Xiao Yuan obediently came over and kneaded his shoulders and neck, making him so comfortable that he almost fell asleep.
"Then you are overthinking. It is impossible for Li Si to serve as prime minister, at least now!"
