Chapter 440: Prime Minister Qin's Regret

In recent days, the top priority in the DPRK has been how to deal with the two cities seized from Qi. The civil servants and military generals have different opinions, and it is difficult to make a decision even today.

In comparison, the matter of admonishing the crown prince was temporarily put on hold.

There was such a big commotion among Prime Minister Qin's family, but His Majesty did not reveal any intention of establishing a crown prince. Naturally, the ministers also looked at it. After a long time, even Prime Minister Qin seemed to have given up temporarily and no longer mentioned the matter. .

Of course, there may be a reason why Prime Minister Qin fell ill due to anger last time and has not recovered yet, so he has not gone to court in the past few days.

In the Qin Mansion, somewhere in a spacious hall, Prime Minister Qin was sitting at the top. Although his face was a little pale, his complexion was generally good. It looked far from what the outside world said. Prime Minister Qin was not as good as Qi Ren in debate, and he was angry on the spot. I vomited three liters of blood and almost died...

"Prime Minister Qin, what should I do now?" King Shu sat on the left side of Prime Minister Qin, with a slightly anxious expression on his face.

He originally thought that with his identity and status, the position of prince would be within easy reach, all that was missing was a personal edict from his father, but what happened in recent days had shaken his confidence.

He almost had the right time, right place, and right people. As long as he took a small step forward, he would be able to sit in the position he dreamed of. But in the end, the King of Shu sadly discovered that he seemed to be further away from that position.

Qin Xiang glanced at the King of Shu, and for a moment he had the idea in his mind whether it would be appropriate for him to be the future emperor of Jingguo. He was not required to be as wise and wise as his current Majesty, but he must be half of it, right?

But what happened to King Shu recently made him doubt himself.

Perhaps this is the reason why Your Majesty has not made the King of Shu the crown prince for so long?

He shook his head, suppressed the thought in his heart, and said slowly: "The queen did not give birth to a prince for your majesty. Concubine Yan also only has a daughter, Princess Shouning. King Jin is too young to take on the big responsibility... Your highness is Cui The prince is the eldest son of your noble concubine, and the prince should be yours. Therefore, your highness does not need to do anything, just wait patiently."

Although Qin Xiang's analysis was very reasonable, King Shu still felt a little confused.

The prince should be his, both emotionally and rationally, but now he is still just the King of Shu. Where have all the emotions and rationality gone? Have they been eaten by dogs?

A trace of annoyance appeared on King Shu's face, and he said, "I really don't know what my father is thinking!"

"Your Highness, be careful what you say!"

Qin Xiang's face suddenly darkened and he said coldly: "Even if you are a prince, don't try to figure out the holy will without authorization. This is not what you should say!"

The King of Shu showed embarrassment on his face and said: "Yes, what Prime Minister Qin taught me is that I was reckless. Isn't this in front of Prime Minister Qin..."

However, Prime Minister Qin's face was still serious and he said, "You shouldn't say it even in front of me!"

"Yes, yes..." Qin Xiang had the thickest thigh, and the King of Shu did not dare to act like a prince in front of him, so he could only nod his head repeatedly.

After a while, watching the King of Shu walk out of the lobby, Qin Xiang stood up from his chair, walked to the door, and sighed leisurely.

At this moment, he couldn't help but doubt his persistence again.

Although the ancestral system cannot be violated, is it really feasible to hand over the great power of Jingguo to such a person?

Thinking about how heroic Emperor Gaozu was back then, he was able to reverse the decline and build a huge foundation in troubled times. After several generations of emperors, Jingguo became what it is today.

Although His Majesty today is a little less domineering than the great ancestor, he is the rare master of the ZTE. In these years, Jingguo's political clarity, rivers and seas are all due to His Majesty, and even the expansion of frontiers that several generations of emperors have not been able to achieve. The soil was miraculously completed in the past few days, but it is a pity that His Majesty's body...

It’s just that the King of Shu does not have your Majesty’s political talent. Even your Majesty’s level of understanding people is not as good as it could be.

Today's Jingzhao Yin Dong Wenyun, the Minister of Civil Affairs Li Mingze, and many of these juniors who are shining brightly in the court and are destined to become the mainstay in more than ten or twenty years, are any of them not personally promoted by His Majesty?

It was precisely for this reason that he paid close attention to Li Yi, County Prince Li, who had come into his eyes recently and was highly valued by His Majesty.

Even though his impression of Li Yi was not very good, he stopped looking at people according to his own preferences decades ago.

As the prime minister of a country, Prime Minister Qin is naturally able to find out things that others cannot.

Therefore, since the name Li Yi first appeared in the records of the Ministry of Officials, Prime Minister Qin knew everything he had done.

Articles, poetry, arithmetic, horseshoes, divine punishment, reform of torture, first aid in the military, summer ice making, spirits, perfume...

Prime Minister Qin still remembered how shocked he was when he saw these things, and he immediately understood why His Majesty valued him so much, and even made an exception to let him teach many princes and princesses--you know that this was the case in the past An honor that only a great Confucian can have.

This is a truly talented person. He alone can be worthy of countless ministers in the court. No wonder he has such a strong holy love. Your Majesty must want to train him to become the humerus minister of the next generation of emperors. He is the king of the country. Fortunately, if there is such a person, I am afraid that the next emperor will go further, although he himself cannot see it...

From the perspective of the prime minister of a country, at that moment, Qin's dissatisfaction with Li Yi disappeared in an instant.

Then he learned about the grievances between Li Yi and Qin Yu and the king of Shu.

The Qin family is now tied to the same boat as the King of Shu. If the King of Shu does not ascend the throne, the Qin family will definitely become a thorn in the side of the new emperor and will inevitably end up in ruins.

If Li Yi can be used by the King of Shu, it will be a great blessing for both the Qin family and the King of Shu, but it is a pity...

That day he saw Li Yi and the King of Shu when he went to court, and later heard that County Prince Li was frightened and fell ill because of the threat from the King of Shu. He thought that there would be no room for turning around for the two of them.

"It's a pity..." Qin Xiang sighed and said leisurely.

"I heard that Li Yi was frightened by His Highness and became sick?" Qin Yu looked at the King of Shu indifferently and asked.

There was a bit of sarcasm on King Shu's face, and he said: "When I went to meet my father that day, I heard about it from the imperial doctor - I just asked him a few words, who Thinking that he is so timid, it seems that I thought highly of him before."

After saying that, he looked at Qin Yu and said: "If you want to touch him, you'd better endure it for a while. My father somehow values ​​him very much. In the future, with your methods, I'm afraid you will do whatever you want." It’s okay to play.”

Qin Yu knew what time the King of Shu was talking about in the future, but every time he thought of the humiliation he suffered in those two days, he wanted to kill him with a thousand knives. He really couldn't wait for that time!
