Volume 7 Chapter 46 The Greedy Merchant Prince

From Mi Chen's mouth, Yingzheng got a message that many people were unwilling to let Wei Yu enter the court as an official. Fan Ju of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info back then, after becoming the prime minister, suppressed all his colleagues, so that those people dared to be angry and dare not speak.

Yingji needed Fan Ju back then, and through various means, he regained a lot of power from the Empress Dowager Xuan. The worry of LΓΌ Buwei, Mi Qi and others is that they are afraid that Wei Yu is the second Fan Ju. And Mrs. Huayang also knew about it, but she wisely kept silent, because of the loneliness of Empress Dowager Xuan in her later years, she saw it very clearly by her side.

After watching a lot, she naturally knows what to do, so she doesn't do anything, she will give Yingzheng whatever she wants, and she will definitely not drag Yingzheng back. From the day Yingzheng became the king, he divided the city guards and gave the harem seal to Zhao Ji.

Gives you power, but you don't catch it yourself, then it's not her business. Ying Zheng also saw very clearly that Mrs. Huayang had given too much help, but she was too young to complain about anyone. Especially in the three years of the stand-in plan, the Marquis of Changxin was put on the throne, which more or less made the Qin subordinates dissatisfied with him.

Who is Chang Yu? is just a doorman of the Lu Mansion, relying on nepotism to ascend to the top. That person is above the court, and he dares to argue with Lu Buwei and Mi Chen, where did he get the courage? It can be described as short-sighted, villainous ambition.

Although LΓΌ Buwei was born as a businessman, he has been operating in the Qin State for many years, and his ability to get to this point is completely obtained by decades of hard work. He also got the support of the previous king, and called the last sentence of the minister of Tuogu, the young Chang Yu, how dare he argue with him.

Therefore, Mrs. Huayang can only find out Mi Qi to fight with Lu Buwei, and among the royal family, only Mi Qi has that qualification. The court was full of old guys, and Chang Yu didn't dare to stay, so he returned to Yongcheng after the wedding, because Zhao Ji sent an order that Chang Yu should not interfere in the affairs of the court, and be his own Changxin Hou with peace of mind.

But Chang Yu is very worried, he is still competing with Ying Hao for military power in Yongcheng, and he has the confidence to be a soldier. He couldn't guess what Zhao Ji thought, and Ganquan Palace didn't dare to go back, because there was a Mo Chou girl in charge there, Zhao Ji gave birth to a child, and she gradually lost interest in Chang Yu. That means to tell you that it is enough to be a happy prince, so as not to be killed.

Everyone thought that above the court, LΓΌ Buwei and Changpingjun should fight fiercely in the ring. These days, it seems that the two are like close partners, and there has never been a dispute, mine you don't fight, yours and I don't rob, they are simply the important ministers of the Qin State who are harmonious and united, so that the chariot of Great Qin can go more stable.

If something goes wrong, it is a demon, and Mrs. Huayang's use of Changping Jun is to let you sing against Lu Buwei, not to play such a united drama. Thinking that Ying Zheng often went to the Proud Building, Mrs. Huayang also understood, but went to the thatched house and asked Xia Ji, Xia Ji only said one sentence: "Let Zheng'er handle it herself." ”

Mrs. Huayang understood, no matter how much arguments were in the court, it was within the controllable range. The two queen mothers of the Qin Palace, the one queen mother of the Ganquan Palace, and the three queen queens are all watching the play, and it is harmless to watch them fight. It's just that Mrs. Huayang has a lot of opinions about Qi Qi, and she regrets using this brother in the clan a little.

Yingzheng is the king of Qin who they hand-picked, and he sent you out to let you assist, not to let you go against the tune. Ying Zheng wants to run the Xianyang School Palace, then let him do it, and if Lu Buwei opposes it, forget it, what is it if you get involved? At the same time, he also looks at Ying Zheng differently, if this school palace is really completed, there will definitely be many talents for him to choose from, which is undoubtedly a good strategy.

The so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, the current court of the Qin State, there are too many old people. Several foreign wars have wasted national strength and have not had much practical benefit, which shows that the enterprising spirit is insufficient. Sometimes, it is necessary to let young people charge, always hold the power in their hands, and sooner or later it will not end well.

Mi Chen also saw this, but Yingzheng was not pro-government, and he couldn't oppose the opinions of the two, so he was only a peacemaker in the middle.

"How can I convince them?" Ying Zheng asked: "Wei Yu is talented, I have to use this person, I am still very young, I can't find Grandma Huayang and you if I have nothing to do." As the king of Qin, there is no one around him, can you understand this feeling? ”

Mi Chen sighed: "But you also have to think about them, who dares to say that Wei Yu is not the second Fan Ju?" ”

Zhongli suddenly asked, "They are afraid that Gongzi will use Wei Yu, why is Lord Mi Chen not afraid?" ”

Mi Chen smiled: "Why should I worry? As long as the king pampers Run'er and Princess Hua Huan, it is estimated that she will be pregnant in the spring of next year. Isn't it a good thing to be that rich man who is happy on his knees? ”

"What's more, there are three queen mothers watching the play now, and none of them stood up to speak, which is to test the king's adaptability. The Xianyang School Palace must be set up, otherwise where can the king be available? After all, we are all old. Those who know people, listen to the destiny of heaven, and don't know how to advance and retreat will not end well. ”

Or this person who sees it clearly and is familiar with Yingzheng knows that the young king is holding his breath in his heart, and this breath will explode sooner or later. Mi Chen has been in the court for many years, and the elders of the four dynasties have seen more thoroughly than many people, and they can retreat bravely in order to protect themselves.

What's more, Mi Chen can't retreat for the time being, otherwise there will be no voice from Yingzheng in the court, and Yingzheng still needs his support. Changping Jun disappointed Mrs. Huayang, he, Chang Wenjun, had to do something to satisfy the royal family.

But there is only one Chang Wenjun in the court, and it is difficult to support it alone, and more people are needed to support him. Ying Zheng thought for a while and said, "Do you think that Ying Cheng will enter the garrison guards?" ”

Qi Chen's eyes lit up, and he nodded and said: "This matter can be done, Yingcheng is the grandson of the Shang Gong, and he has been with the king since childhood." With that kid, he will definitely be able to get the support of Shang Gong and other Ying clan people, and no matter how unhappy the eldest brother is, he will not annoy Shang Gong. ”

This plan is very good, Mi Chen knows what he should do, as long as Shang Gong and himself agree, the pressure on Yingzheng will be reduced a lot. As long as the voice in the court is increased and the new policy is implemented, there will be more supporters.

For the sake of calming Michen's heart, Ying Zheng said again: "Please rest assured, Yue Yu, when he enters the court as an official, he will not become the second Fan Ju, because I never thought of making him the prime minister." There is a position that I think he is very suitable, that is, a national lieutenant, specializing in military affairs, and will not get too involved in political affairs. ”

Saying this, Mi Chen was confused, and said: "He is a representative of the Legalists, just a literati, not in politics but in the army, does he have that ability?" If this happens, it will conflict with the position of the eldest brother Changpingjun, and if it ......"

Mi Chen immediately silenced and stopped talking, Ying Zheng just nodded, and the two stopped talking.

Mi Chen left the Qin Palace, walking on the way back, sighing at Changping Jun in his heart. The queen mother enabled you, but you blocked the footsteps of the king, and the position of the left prime minister was very high, so why not rise and fall secretly. The garrison installed Yingcheng, and Changpingjun could no longer do the position of national lieutenant.

In the end, your hopes of going to the battlefield will be completely disappointed. Maybe one day, he will stumble and be deprived of all power. A martial artist, how can he be the opponent of those people. Maybe Mrs. Huayang, Lu Buwei and others have a way to squeeze Changpingjun down.

Before they can do it, Yingzheng is ready to do it, so he will take advantage of your unsteady footsteps to implement other duties and create a fait accompli. Poor Changping Jun is estimated to be able to handle government affairs in Xianyang in the future. Yingzheng's plan completely cut off Changpingjun's way to enter the military and politics, and it will definitely catch LΓΌ Buwei off guard.

A person who is determined to be on the battlefield suddenly can't lead troops to fight one day, so he can only fight with LΓΌ Buwei wholeheartedly. And what Lu Buwei is most afraid of is this kind of person, Changping Jun is a dead brain, with a resolute style of doing things, and he will not give anyone face at all.

Just do it when you think of it, Yingzheng took Zhongli and went directly to Shanggong's house, and as soon as he talked about Yingcheng, Shanggong agreed. just agreed, but didn't say the specific words, which made Yingzheng very helpless, they are all old foxes who have become elites, and they may need to pay some price to make him satisfied.

Ying Zheng asked: "Shang Gong, you are the patriarch of my Ying clan, and during this period, I will promote Ying Cheng as the leader of the garrison guard, which is in the interests of the imperial family." Why are you still reluctant to support me? Isn't it true that you have not been involved in political affairs for many years, and you have worn off your edge? ”

Shang Gong smiled: "People are already old, it's good to avoid some edges, I can't withstand the toss of Lu Buwei and Changping Jun." Yingcheng followed the king, and let the kid do something, it completely depends on the king's meaning, and the others have no right to say anything. Can I solve it if I come forward? Even if Yingcheng goes to the garrison, he will only be subservient to Changping Jun, because his qualifications are not enough, and most of the generals there listen to Changping Jun, and if he wants to get ahead, he will have to stay up for at least a few years. ”

"The three queen mothers can see it very clearly, they are not involved, so why should I participate in political affairs? Don't look at me as the patriarch of the Ying clan, in fact, my family is not rich, and it costs too much to cultivate the children of the clan, and the people of the Shangjia and Mi clans are not rich at all. ”

It's really an old fox, Ying Zheng is in his heart. It seems to be for the sake of the clan, but in fact, it is still for yourself. No one is perfect, and no matter how good a person does on the surface, he has his own selfishness.

Ying Zheng asked, "What does Shang Gong want?" ”

Shang Gong said seriously: "The merchants of Bashu will secretly pay tribute to a batch of money and grain every year and deposit it in the private treasury, and Lord Michen is the one who controls the private treasury. When the king is in power, you can transfer Lord Mi Chen to attack the Chu State, and the candidates for the private treasury must be vacant, and when the time comes, let me recommend the person to be the person, does the king agree? ”

Ying Zheng gasped, it's really a lion's mouth, or don't want it, it's really terrifying to get up. I despise Shang Gong to the extreme, this person is too greedy, can you covet the private treasury of the royal family?

Why are several generations of Qin kings willing to hand over their private treasury to Mi Chen? Because Mi Chen has no selfishness, he is not greedy for money, he does his duty, and sometimes he seems a little stingy. His stinginess, in exchange for the stinginess of the private treasury, even if Zheng Guoqu has been repaired for so long, the treasury can support it, it is nothing more than that private treasury as a guarantee.

Ying Zheng stared at Shang Gong carefully and said, "Shang Gong really wants to be in charge of the private treasury? ”

Shang Gong nodded and said, "The Mi clan has been in charge of the private treasury for decades, and it should be the turn of the Ying clan to do it." ”

Ying Zheng said: "Okay, I agree. ”

Shang Gong smiled and happily sent Yingzheng out.

As soon as he went out, Yingzheng's smile completely turned cold, and Zhongli wanted to say something, but he stopped him.

"Let's talk about it when we go back to the palace."
