Bai Xiaosheng sat in the carriage, leaning against the wooden lattice of the window, humming some ballads that others could not understand, all of which were taught by her. On the other side of the window, Lü Buwei closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. He looked calm and composed, as if nothing could wake up this prime minister of the Qin Dynasty who was at the peak of his career. But the faint smile on his lips deeply betrayed this businessman who should have been shrewd.
The ballad suddenly stopped. Bai Xiaosheng thought of the nine large tripods of King Yu in the Yin-Yang Observatory, and the attack by the Chu army on the way when Lü Buwei escorted the nine tripods back to Xianyang. His heart brightened up. This ordinary and earth-shaking event turned out to be so wise.
The Nine Cauldrons were lost in the hands of Lü Buwei, but Lü Buwei still sat firmly in the position of prime minister, as if nothing had happened. This was too ordinary.���The Nine Cauldrons are the most important national treasures. The loss of such treasures is a world-shaking event.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lu Buwei slightly raised his eyelids and glanced at him.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said,"Nothing else, I admire Prime Minister Lu."
Lu Buwei was rarely happy, and he laughed a few times, saying,"I'm just an old man, what is there to admire?" The pride in his words was evident.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled, but in his heart he couldn't help but admire another person, the Qin Prince Chu who sat firmly in the deep palace and always said,"I will listen to Prime Minister Lu" in everything. Lu Buwei was busy inside and outside, trying to use the Nine Cauldrons to make trouble, but the Qin Prince Chu turned a blind eye and did nothing, but played Lu Buwei and Yangquan Jun around. It was really stupid.
The loss of the Nine Cauldrons seemed to be Lu Buwei's idea and plan, but it was definitely the"confused" intention of the Qin Prince Chu. The purpose was naturally to deal with Yangquan Jun, who told you to be... A Chu citizen, or a prince of Chu?
As the saying goes, think it through, don't say it out loud. Bai Xiaosheng will not speak it out. He wonders whether he should find a first-class seat and wait to watch the show, or intervene to make the show more exciting.
Today is the big court meeting at the beginning of each month.
Early in the morning, many ministers are waiting outside the palace gate.
On the one hand, they want to establish an image and win a good reputation for diligence, and on the other hand, they want to take advantage of the time before the morning court to get closer to their colleagues.
The purpose, everyone knows.
Those who pretend to be pretentious and seek fame, some people hate them, and there are others who are willing to go along with them.
This is life.
In front of the palace gate, on the left, there is a cluster of The officials were centered around Lord Yangquan, and they looked like dignitaries.
The officials on the right, in twos and threes, were dressed in plain clothes and of low rank.
Most of them disdained flattery and were newcomers who were frustrated.
As the saying goes, a popular person will be pursued by others, let alone the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty who was in his heyday.
Moreover, not long ago, Lu Buwei personally led the army and destroyed the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
There was news from the palace that Lu Buwei was going to be made a marquis.
So when they saw Prime Minister Lu slowly getting off the car, whether they were senior officials or junior officials who had just entered the officialdom, they all stepped forward and complimented him.
Bai Xiaosheng stood outside the crowd and smiled at these officials.
The clear stream washes away the mud, and the streams merge into one.
It is not known whether it is in contempt or pity.
The atmosphere in front of the palace gate was a little wrong.
Bai Xiaosheng turned around and saw that none of Yangquan Jun's party had a good face.
They looked at him coldly and rolled their eyes.
Bai Xiaosheng ignored it, with a peaceful smile on his face.
He greeted the ministers who occasionally passed by and greeted him in a dignified manner.
As for those who looked up with their noses in the sky and chins...
I wish you a broken neck.
At this time, three eunuchs slowly walked out of the palace gate. The one in the middle was Eunuch Gao. He waved the whisk in his hand and said softly:"You have worked hard, please."
The officials stopped greeting, straightened their clothes, and walked into the Xianyang Palace. Familiar corridors, familiar guards, but there are different people every time.
…………
There is a special atmosphere in the majestic hall.
Bai Xiaosheng understands it, Lü Buwei understands it, and all the ministers understand it.
Even Yangquan Jun, a pig-brained man, knows that this atmosphere is the breath of power.
It rises from the throne and makes the ministers feel awe.
It has nothing to do with the throne, nor with the Qin Prince Chu on the throne.
The powerful foundation accumulated by the Qin State for six generations over a hundred years is the source of this atmosphere.
The main topic of the court meeting is naturally inseparable from the triumphant army and the Chengjiao envoys, but everyone chooses to ignore the dispute over the road outside the city, and even Yangquan Jun did not make use of it.
The triumphant army must be rewarded according to merit. It is simple to reward 100,000 soldiers, and the ranks are promoted according to military merit. But when it comes to the main generals Lü Buwei and Wang Jian, they are in trouble. Lü Buwei has already reached the highest position among the ministers, and the next step is to be a marquis.
Prince Chu of Qin was speechless for a while, then waved his hand. Eunuch Gao at the steps took the imperial edict and read the drafted edict in a shrill voice.
"……Prime Minister Lü Buwei has made great contributions and is the pillar of our Great Qin State. He is specially granted the title of Marquis Wenxin!"
Although they were well prepared, the ministers could not help but tremble in their hearts when they heard it with their own ears. With this title of marquis, Lü Buwei was truly second to none and above ten thousand people.
At this moment, a voice of opposition made the ministers' hearts tremble again. They turned their heads and looked, secretly wondering, why is it this bastard Yangquan Jun again...
Yangquan Jun ignored Cai Ze's obstruction, stepped out of the line, saluted to the throne and said respectfully:"Your Majesty, I have an objection."
This act of openly interrupting the summons was tantamount to contempt for the king's majesty.
Prince Chu of Qin on the throne could no longer maintain a lazy and weak posture. He sat up and sat upright on the throne that successive Qin kings had fought for. A sense of awe still arose from him, as if the former king was possessed, and he said with full royal aura:"What objection does Yangquan Jun have?"
Yangquan Jun saw the majestic Qin Prince Chu for the first time.
He was stunned and a little nervous.
He quickly calmed down and said,"According to Qin law, those who have merits will be rewarded and those who have committed mistakes will be punished.
Although Prime Minister Lu has made great contributions to destroying Zhou and defeating the army, the mistakes he made are outrageous!
" He turned sideways, glared at Lu Buwei, and said,"Prime Minister Lu lost the Nine Cauldrons of King Yu, such an important treasure of the emperor.
The Prime Minister will not shirk his responsibility, right?"
Lu Buwei glanced back indifferently:"King Yu's Nine Cauldrons were lost, and Lu Buwei has nothing to say. I beg my king to punish me."
Yangquan Jun immediately showed a look of great joy. He seemed to see how Lü Buwei would be punished in a while. He looked at Cai Ze proudly, but saw that the other party turned his head away and was too lazy to look at him.
At this time, he realized that the hall was terribly quiet. The ministers were silent, or sighed in a low voice, or had sarcasm in their eyes. He, Yangquan Jun, was like a monkey, playing monkey tricks for a long time, but only amused himself.
Suddenly, a"puff" laugh sounded, which was particularly clear. Yangquan Jun glared at him and saw that the person who laughed was the powerless businessman.
"why are you laughing!?"
"I laugh at you being stupid!"
