Fish swimming around the world

Chapter 2038 Mysterious Operation

It is not surprising that the inheritance of the Grand Prime Minister caused a sensation.

After all, such a thing as the leader of the five countries will only cause shocks to the top leaders, but the monarchs of the five countries all knew it in advance. Although the outside world cannot understand the strange practice of only five countries choosing a leader, except for a few people who have direct or indirect relations, the public will not care too much.

However, the matter of verifying the inheritance of the Grand Prime Minister is bound to cause a huge response at all levels, especially among the people. That is the inheritance of the Grand Prime Minister Jiang. Once it is obtained, won’t a hidden prime minister be born?

After the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Grand Prime Minister took the initiative to remove the official position of the Grand Prime Minister and became the hidden prime minister of the country, but this title was not passed down. With the sealing of the underground palace by Emperor Taizong, no one has inherited it for 900 years, and the world has basically forgotten about it. But no Zhou people can forget the Grand Prime Minister, so it’s better not to mention this matter. Once it is mentioned, everyone knows it, whether it is the people or the major forces, there is an uproar.

People believe that after the sealing of the underground palace, the inheritance of the Grand Prime Minister is basically in the Jiang family. What is the imperial court doing? Is it to take the inheritance of the Jiang family? But why should we participate in the verification? How to participate in the verification? Under the premise that the robbery of the Dragon Vein Underground Palace cannot be made public, the reason instantly caused widespread heated discussion.

It is indeed difficult to understand what the Royal Court is doing. Especially in terms of the selection of candidates, although it seems that all five countries are involved in the verification of inheritance, Jiang Fan is a bit too inappropriate, the regent of Qin State is the prime minister of the Royal Court? Is he crazy?

Jiang Xiaoyao seems to be getting more and more prominent, and he shocks people at every turn.

You know, when he was granted the title of King of Zhenxi, he confused the people of the world enough. Not long ago, he was granted a hereditary title by the Royal Court. This matter has not been understood by the public. Now he wants to participate in the inheritance and try to inherit the title of prime minister? What does the Royal Court think? It is a mysterious operation.

Jiang Fan listened to the voices of the outside world, but he could only sigh and keep silent. Things in the world are like this. The times will always create some magical phenomena. But who can see the root cause if they are not in the game.

As a person in the game, he had to face his own destiny.

Jiang Fan did not go directly to Mount Tai, but traveled a long distance back to Moling again. First of all, it was to pick up his teacher Zhang Zhiling. This time, the old prime minister also had to go to Mount Tai, but not as a special envoy. After all, he was nominally just teaching in Mount Li, and had nothing to do with the Qin political arena.

The public purpose of the old prime minister going to the mountain was to pay homage to his old friend, the great worshiper who sat in Fuyun Pavilion.

The most respected worshiper of Mount Tai in history is this one, probably because before entering the mountain, the old man had traveled to various countries for decades, engaged in eliminating wars and rescuing refugees, and was highly respected and admired by the world.

After going up the mountain, he worked even harder and devoted himself to saving the world and the people, but he was not a stickler for the old ways, but was good at dealing with the world and well versed in power and intrigue, and did a lot of real good things for the world.

In particular, this old man and Zhang Zhiling had similar ideas and often cooperated with each other, which was why Zhang Zhiling appreciated him and regarded him as both a teacher and a friend.

Now, the day of the great offering is approaching, Zhang Zhiling took this opportunity to go up the mountain, on the one hand to pay tribute to his old friend, on the other hand to observe Taiyue's reaction to the two issues of the leader and the prime minister for Jiang Fan.

Then the special envoy who really went up the mountain this time was indeed the real Li Xiu. At the beginning, Li Xiu was nominally present at the Dianchi meeting, and it would be inappropriate for him not to come.

In fact, in addition to observing the King of Jin in Moling, Zhang Zhiling was also waiting for Li Xiu to arrive and join Jiang Fan in Daizhou to climb Mount Tai.

But the most important person who accompanied the Qin delegation from Moling was the King of Jin.

The meeting of the King of Qin and the King of Jin in Moling and the visit to Mount Tai together will not bring many speculations to the world, but at least two points are certain.

First, confirming the Qin-Jin alliance, the disclosure of this matter will deter all countries for a long time in the future, so as to seek stability.

Second, stage a reconciliation between the general and the prime minister. If the King of Jin enters the imperial court as the leader of the alliance, similar to the general, then Jiang Fan's title of prime minister will naturally be the prime minister. When the alliance leader and the prime minister are announced to the world, the world will find that there is an alliance first and then they join hands to enter the court. No matter who wants to make trouble, they must carefully consider the deep relationship between the two.

Jiang Fan is not worried that this move will affect the decision of the Dianchi Association, because it is a fait accompli. Moreover, when Daicheng was assassinated, Gao Qi stationed troops on the border and Jin responded, which basically clarified the relationship between the two countries.

Chu and Wei are inevitably wary of this, but considering the consequences of Taiyue selecting the alliance leader, they have to hold their noses and endure it. As for Xiaguo, it is even more clear that the position of the alliance leader was taken away, which was basically done deliberately by the four countries and the imperial court. If they don't want to be targeted by the group, they can only do so temporarily.

Of course, they will also consider the problem from another angle. The alliance between Qin and Jin has become a fact. One is the alliance leader and the other is the prime minister. Obviously, they will cooperate to a large extent, but this will also cause divisions. After all, the two have to seek their own interests.

And the imperial court will never sit and watch them collude to frame themselves.

Therefore, in the eyes of many people, they went to the court together, just to show harmony to deter outsiders. They must be wary, but not too much.

Jiang Fan went with the special envoy Li Xiu in the name of a separate imperial edict, and he had to enter the imperial court openly, accept the reward and verify the inheritance of the prime minister.

In fact, Jiang Fan was also very interested in who the other four countries would send, because the prince gave each vassal state five places at that time.

"We only have one prince, you have a heavy responsibility." After the greetings, Li Xiu said with a smile.

Jiang Fan was naturally very relaxed: "It's okay, it's all a small problem. By the way, did you bring my thunder?"

Jiang Fan specifically asked Li Xiu to bring Manglei here because he knew that Manglei and the Divine Whip could resonate and be useful in any case.

"The prince told me, Xiu naturally dare not forget it, and has already sent it to the prince's bedroom. In addition, Lu Tiezui, who you asked to bring, is also waiting outside."

Jiang Fan nodded and said a little apologetically: "In this meeting at Dianchi Lake, I will speak to Zhang Yi on your behalf. He has some words, and I will answer them on your behalf. The situation has come to an end. I hope Prime Minister Li will not take offense."

"Where." Li Xiu sighed with emotion: "Xiu has heard your majesty's report. What the prince said is exactly what Xiu thought. When Xiu left the Ghost Valley and entered the world, he also imitated his predecessors and wanted to persuade the five countries with his impeccable tongue. The country finally discovered that after many ups and downs, even though there were thousands of tricks, it was not as good as one thought, and only then did it concentrate on the way of legalization. However, the world's impression of the tricks was solidified, but they never thought that the person who knew the most about cultivating in the world was actually. It’s the prince.”

Jiang Fan smiled and said: "Xiangguo understands the way to govern the country and bring peace to the world. I see it with my own eyes and feel it. I admire it in my heart. I also hope that the Prime Minister will carry out his words and promote the rule of law for our great Qin. I believe that only the law Only the law can strengthen the country and enrich the people."

Li Xiu was a little strange: "The prince once said that the country should be governed according to law. Xiu has a deep understanding of it and Xiu also believes that a fair legal system can indeed enrich the country and strengthen the people. But why does the prince say that a country can be strengthened and its people?"

Zhang Zhiling said with a smile: "This kid has talked with me about this matter. A country is rich when its people are strong. Sages and sages have said this since ancient times. Only this kid thinks that a strong country can only lead to a wealthy people, but a wealthy people does not necessarily mean a strong country. He also said, this is why There are many reasons why centralization of power should be implemented in the current period, and you don’t need to argue with him. It’s better to think about it carefully, or you may have different opinions.”

Jiang Fan understood that the teacher did not want his ideas to be too transcendent to influence Li Xiu, so he smiled and said: "Exactly, why don't you think about it carefully when you have time, and you and I will have a cup of tea and chat in our spare time."

Li Xiu nodded and stopped talking about the matter.

"Your Majesty, the main purpose of Xiu's visit to the mountain this time is to represent Qin in supporting the prince's claims. The real highlight is still with the prince. Only a few people in the Qin Kingdom know about this matter of the Prime Minister. However, His Majesty has unanimously recognized it and will definitely support the prince. , you can act with confidence, and after many changes, the people of Qin have long regarded the prince as one of their own, they have 120 trust in you, and will not make random guesses and stir up trouble.
