Chapter 57 Wang Wan resigned from office and sought relief from submission [Please collect and read]
After taking a bath, Ying Zheng's face glowed red, he felt very relaxed, and his appetite also increased.
Zhao Gao had already prepared meals and led Ying Zheng to the side of the case.
Ying Zheng took a closer look and saw that he was still the third child, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.
Ever since he ate the hot pot that Zhao Hao and Wei Liao had on the top of the mountain, he felt that eating the food in the palace was becoming more and more boring.
For example, after eating this white noodle pot helmet, mutton bone meat, and spicy soup for decades, I am really tired of it.
"Your Majesty, do you think today's meal is not to your liking?"
Zhao Gao, who was very perceptive, immediately noticed Ying Zheng's dissatisfaction and asked cautiously.
Ying Zheng shook his head and didn't say much. He just sat silently behind the desk. While tearing off the tender mutton bones from the copper plate and stuffing them into his mouth, he raised the white-faced pot helmet and bit into it fiercely.
One bite.
Feeling that the chewing was boring, I grabbed a handful of garlic and put it in my mouth.
For some reason, the more he ate, the more he wanted to eat the hot pot he ate that day. It wasn't until he ate three white noodles and a large plate of mutton bones that his desire gradually subsided.
In fact, I just feel full and don’t want to eat anything.
"Gululu"
After drinking a can of spicy soup, Ying Zheng wiped his forehead with sweat and left his seat.
Zhao Gao, who was standing next to him, smiled and praised: "Your Majesty is really a fierce warrior. He has eaten up four kilograms of mutton, three kilograms of pot helmets, and a can of spicy soup. Old Lian Po is nothing more than that!"
Ying Zheng rolled his eyes inwardly and thought to himself, if I hadn't wanted to eat hot pot so much, would I have eaten so much?
Once you have tasted hot pot, you will know it!
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng said with some aftertaste: "Why did I feel a faint medicinal smell in the spicy soup just now?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
Zhao Gao's face changed and he said in fear: "Seeing that Your Majesty has been busy with political affairs recently, the old slave asked the imperial doctor to prescribe some medicine for your Majesty to strengthen your body and strengthen your vitality. I was also worried that Your Majesty wouldn't like the soup, so I put it in the spicy soup.
!”
"I see."
Ying Zheng smacked his lips, and said with emotion: "I thought it would be easier when the Six Kingdoms were destroyed, but I didn't expect more and more things to happen. It's really troublesome!"
As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves and reassured Zhao Gao: "It doesn't matter, as long as it works, there is no problem in taking the medicine as food!"
"Your Majesty, don't worry. This old slave will definitely find a way to strengthen your Majesty's body so that he can teach you how to manage this great river and mountains with vigor and vigor!"
"Hahaha, okay!"
Ying Zheng raised his head and laughed for a while, and said energetically: "I felt powerless after handling political affairs before, but now that I have eaten and drank enough, I can handle political affairs again!"
"It's getting dark now. Your Majesty might as well deal with political affairs tomorrow?" Zhao Gao asked worriedly.
Ying Zheng suddenly said with a straight face: "How dare you talk too much about political affairs? Why don't you prepare your car quickly and wait outside the door!"
"promise."
Zhao Gao responded, not daring to say anything more, and hurriedly ran out the door.
Not long after, Ying Zheng came to the study.
Just when he was about to deal with political affairs, a Langguan came to report: "Your Majesty, the old Prime Minister Wang Wan wants to see you!"
"Um?"
Ying Zheng, who was sitting behind the desk, reacted for a moment, then raised his hand and said: "Let him come in!"
"Old minister Wang Wan, see your Majesty!"
Wang Wan entered the study from outside the door and immediately saluted Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng smiled and raised his hand to signal: "Old Prime Minister, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down."
"No need."
Wang Wan, who had never rejected Ying Zheng, rarely rejected him this time, but when he said these three words, he felt a little inappropriate, so he smiled apologetically: "I came to see your Majesty today because I want to ask for your resignation.
!”
"Please resign?"
Ying Zheng twisted his eyebrows, immediately suppressed his smile, and said in a deep voice: "Old Prime Minister, what do you mean by this?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I am getting old and not as good as before. I am afraid that I will no longer be able to share your Majesty's worries."
"Is this what you mean?"
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Wan coldly.
Wang Wan was neither anxious nor slow, and said with a calm expression: "Everything I said is true, Your Majesty, there is no need to believe it!"
"snort!"
Ying Zheng snorted coldly and said solemnly: "If the old prime minister plans to resign to threaten me to implement the enfeoffment system, he may be disappointed!"
He was never threatened by anyone, not even Wang Wan, a veteran of three dynasties.
However, Wang Wan shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. Even if I have the heart to serve the country, I would never dare to threaten Your Majesty with resignation. It's just because of my age."
"enough!"
Ying Zheng interrupted Wang Wan's words and shouted: "Tell me the truth!"
He didn't believe that Wang Wan would resign as prime minister because of his old age. There must be some special reason that made this power-hungry old prime minister change his mind.
Looking up at Ying Zheng, Wang Wan sighed inwardly and said somewhat helplessly: "Your Majesty already values Li Si and others, so why bother with me?"
"Lee Si?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then said with a serious face: "What rumors have you heard?"
"Not just rumors"
Wang Wan shook his head and sighed: "In these years, I have actually understood everything. I have already felt alienated from Your Majesty. If I am not wrong, Your Majesty should want Li Si to serve as Prime Minister!"
"."
A flash of surprise flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and it was fleeting, and he neither admitted nor denied it.
I heard Wang Wan say with emotion again: "Old minister, I have served the empire for so many years, it's time to take a rest."
"But." As he spoke, he changed the topic and continued: "Before I rest, I still want to be loyal to Your Majesty."
"To be loyal?"
Ying Zheng was stunned again.
But Wang Wan took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeves, raised his hands above his head, and said: "This is a national policy that I have come up with for your majesty and the empire. I hope your majesty will understand it clearly!"
Ying Zheng frowned, stood up immediately, came to Wang Wan, looked at him first, then looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and said calmly, "What kind of national policy is this?"
"Strategy for the country!" Wang Wan said in a deep voice.
"Surveying the country?"
Ying Zheng looked deeply at Wang Wan, then raised his hand to take the bamboo slip, and slowly unfolded it, only to see five eye-catching characters appearing on it: Three Provinces and Six Ministries.
Three provinces and six ministries?
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully, and it took a while before he came back to his senses.
Good guy!
A good move is to use retreat to advance, and to bend to reach extension!
No wonder you want to resign as prime minister. According to this administrative system, there is no need for a prime minister at all!
What is this called?
Destroy it if you can’t get it?
You know that I want to correct Li Si, so you deliberately give me such a national policy!?
Good on you Wang Wan!
OK!
What a three-province and six-department system!
Ying Zheng's face turned green and red, his chest rose and fell, and he was very excited.
Compared with the system of three ministers and nine ministers, this system of three provinces and six ministries is more mature and checks and balances each other, which is wonderful!
But with such a national strategy, why did this old guy come up with it now?
Could it be
wrong!
He didn't come up with it!
