Chapter 187: It’s such a great Qin, why don’t I rebel against it first! [Please subscribe]

Half an hour ago.

Ying Zheng held his last court meeting before his eastern tour in Qilin Hall.

Although various national policies have been promulgated, many problems have still been encountered.

These problems may be big or small. Small ones can basically be solved by the county guards in various places, but big ones must be reported to the court and Ying Zheng will make the decision himself.

And Ying Zheng is not the kind of monarch who is arbitrary in everything, so he convened this court meeting.

Although this court meeting is not as good as the big court meeting, basically all the officials in Xianyang who can be there are here.

Seeing that the ministers had nothing to do, Ying Zheng looked around the ministers with a smile and solemnly said: "Dear ministers, I have decided to start my eastward tour at the end of March. Now I have two major things to announce. One, after I leave Beijing

, the old prime minister Wang Wan presided over the government, and the imperial censor Feng Jie assisted him. Secondly, the old Guowei accidentally learned the method of making salt, which can remove the poison in the poisonous salt."

"!"

Before Ying Zheng finished speaking, the ministers were suddenly startled, and the entire Qilin Hall was silent.

They were not surprised by the first major event. After all, no one except the old prime minister Wang Wan was qualified to preside over the government.

What really surprised them was the second thing.

This Wei Liao must be so lucky that he accidentally came across such a magical method of making salt.

Is he going to become the first official in Qin Dynasty to be crowned king in one fell swoop?

You must know that if you can remove the poisons in the poisonous salt, you can solve the problem of salt shortage in Da Qin. This is definitely a huge contribution to Da Qin.

If you can't be crowned king for such merit, then what kind of merit can you be crowned king for?

Do they remember that Ying Zheng said that in addition to destroying six kingdoms by one person, any courtier who can make great contributions to the country can also be crowned king.

With shock, confusion, envy, jealousy and hatred in their hearts, the ministers looked at Wei Liao with complicated expressions.

But he saw Wei Liao's expression was indifferent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Because he knew that the reason why Ying Zheng claimed Zhao Hao's achievements as his own was for the purpose of protecting Zhao Hao.

After all, this contribution is too great, and with Zhao Hao's current background, he simply cannot bear it.

After being silent for a while, Ying Zheng said again: "Although it is a method of making salt that the old Guowei accidentally obtained, it is incomplete and needs to be verified. After the verification is completed, if it works, I will discuss the merit and reward it. If it doesn't work, I will reward you."

, I ordered people to continue research until this method is feasible."

"certainly."

As he spoke, he changed the topic and continued: "No matter what, I still want to reward the old Guowei for his contribution to the Dharma! By passing on my will, he will be granted the title of Marquis of Pingyang, and he will be granted the title of Marquis of Pingyang, and he will be granted a settlement of 5,000 households!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, before the ministers could react, Wei Liao stood up and bowed to thank him.

This series of words and deeds made all the ministers stunned, and only a few veterans of the empire saw the clues.

Obviously, the method of making salt was definitely not obtained by Wei Liao by chance. It should be the masterpiece of a certain young master.

Naturally, they knew the purpose of the First Emperor's doing this.

As for the method of making salt that is not perfect and needs to be studied, it is just an excuse to share the credit and make a king, which is also nonsense.

Therefore, when Wei Liao bowed to express his gratitude, Li Si stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you are a wise man! Old Guo Wei is truly the pillar of our great Qin Dynasty!"

When Ying Zheng heard this, he smiled noncommittally, and then changed the subject and said, "My dear friends, do you have other things to report? If there is nothing else, then you can retreat from the court!"

"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, the upright Feng Jie stood up immediately.

"What's wrong with Feng Aiqing? It's okay to just say it!"

Ying Zheng smiled and raised his hand to signal.

Feng Jie said angrily: "As an imperial censor, I have the power to monitor the world. Rumors are spreading all over the world, criticizing the New Deal, criticizing Your Majesty, and even saying that Your Majesty has no personal ethics, is cold and cruel, why does Your Majesty ignore it?"

Wow——!

The ministers were in an uproar.

Some people looked surprised and said to themselves that Feng Jie would not open or lift any pot.

Some people talk sarcastically, thinking that a good show is about to take place.

There are also people with indifferent expressions, as if it doesn't matter to them.

Some people even felt a little shocked in their hearts and quickly lowered their heads and pretended to be dead.

But Li Si's face darkened, and he immediately stood up and said: "I have already started to deal with this matter. Your Majesty has made his own decision, and there is no need to discuss it further!"

"Oh!"

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, a censor stood up and mocked: "Li Tingwei is not the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, so why has he started acting arbitrarily?"

"presumptuous!"

Ying Zheng slapped the case and shouted angrily.

"Your Majesty, calm down. Although what Yu Shi said is outrageous, it is also true. Everyone has always expressed their own opinions on major national affairs. Li Tingwei's actions are a bit overbearing."

Seeing Ying Zheng getting angry, another censor also stood up.

When all the ministers saw this, they couldn't help but look at each other.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "If anyone else has any opinions, you might as well tell them too!"

"this"

The ministers looked at each other, and soon three more admonishing officials stood up.

"To report to your majesty, I feel that your majesty has been too kind after the reunification. This has made the people of the world forget the harshness of our Qin laws!"

"Yes, your majesty. I advise your majesty on all the people in the world who are related to the rumors. They spread the rumors as if they are rebelling against our country, the Qin Dynasty. They should be killed!"

"Yes! Trap and kill the evil leader and even those who spread rumors to serve as a warning to others!"

As soon as the three admonishing doctors finished speaking, the entire audience was stunned, as if a heavy bomb had been dropped in the Qilin Hall.

The entire Qilin Palace was instantly blown to pieces.

Not only Feng Jie, who was the first to stand up, but also Li Si, Wang Wan, even Wei Liao, Feng Quji and others all had slightly changed expressions.

Good guy!

How dare you teach His Majesty how to do things?

Are you really tired of living?

Obviously, they never expected that these censors and admonishing officials would say such "unnatural" words.

Doesn't this clearly make the First Emperor a tyrant?

Isn’t this confirming the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty?

Then all the efforts made before have been in vain?

"Your Majesty, this is not possible!"

Wang Wan recovered from the shock and immediately handed over to Ying Zheng.

Feng Quji also hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the Confucianism case has aroused the world, making people in the world doubtful of our new policy. If we go on a killing spree now, it will be extremely detrimental to our new policy. Your Majesty, please think twice!"

"Your Majesty, please think again!"

As soon as Feng Quji finished speaking, more than a dozen courtiers came out to echo his words.

Seeing this scene, the Censor He spoke again: "The two prime ministers are also veterans of the empire, how can they be so pedantic? As the saying goes, the law should not be lightly violated, and lawbreakers should be severely punished!"

Hearing this, the censors and admonishing officials just now also stood up and agreed.

"Yes, Your Majesty is a wise king with great achievements in the world. How can you be afraid of a small person?"

"Does an emperor still have to be timid in his actions?"

"Two prime ministers, we, the Qin Army, have great advantages in fighting. None of the six kingdoms are our opponents. Why are we still afraid of the remnants of the six kingdoms after destroying them? What a joke!"

Hearing this, Wang Wan was so angry that her face turned red and her neck was thick, and she shouted loudly: "That's nonsense!"

"The prime minister has never had any selfish motives in governing the country. What do you want to do when you are biting innocent people here?"

Feng Quji said with a cold eyebrow.

"As His Majesty's ministers, we naturally share His Majesty's worries. Could it be that Prime Minister Zuo, with his high authority, does not allow us to share His Majesty's worries and wants to take this opportunity to eradicate us?"

He Yushi sneered.

As a censor, the most important thing is your words.

This Censor He was the Censor Cheng, second only to the Censor Feng Jie, but he did not listen to Feng Jie at all and was notoriously thorny.

Feng Jie originally wanted to question Ying Zheng's decision, but he didn't expect that he would play the role of a 'leading bird' and let He Yushi use the topic as an excuse.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Li Si stood up with a stern face and said: "As censors, you have the responsibility to supervise all officials, but when it comes to the rule of law, can you be better than me?"
