Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 71 What the hell, Bandit Cao's reputation can't be shaken off!

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to ask for!"

Old Wang Wan stepped forward tremblingly, stopped Ying Zheng who was about to drive back to the palace, and bowed to him.

Ying Zheng still respected the old Confucian official, seeing this, he hurried forward to support his arm, and said angrily, "What is this old Aiqing doing?"

"I know that Lao Aiqing is old and it is not suitable to travel far, so this time I am patrolling Chu, I don't want to make Lao Aiqing ride bumps, just stay in Jianguo!"

He probably thought that Old Wang Wan didn't want to die on the patrol road.

But Old Wang Wan shook his head and said firmly: "It is the honor of a minister to patrol with the driver, and how can a minister be afraid of suffering and tiredness? Even if he dies on the road of patrolling, his life will not be in vain."

Ying Zheng was puzzled: "Then...this is old Aiqing?"

Old Wang Wan paid homage again, and Qi Qiran said: "As Your Majesty said, the minister is old and decayed, and a long journey is enough to lose his life."

"The minister can see the end of the troubled times, and the official is the Zuo Cheng, an extremely human minister. It stands to reason that he should die without regret."

"But... the minister has been busy with state affairs in recent years, but he has neglected to discipline his children and grandchildren, so that his generation is a playboy."

"I'm really afraid that after death, the other generation will cause disasters, harm themselves, others and the country!"

At the end of Lao Wang Wan's words, her old eyes were already red with tears.

Ying Zheng is also a father, so he naturally understands Lao Wang Wan's state of mind, but he said righteously: "Lao Aiqing, don't worry, if your generation dares to violate the laws of Qin, I will deal with it fairly, and I will not let Lao Aiqing die behind her." Dirty!"

Old Wang Wan hesitated: "..."

do i mean that

I want to ask for grace for my descendants.

How can I ask for a fair treatment.

The emperor is too deeply influenced by someone, and his style of handling things is becoming more and more similar, and he doesn't play cards according to routines at all!

Thinking of this, Lao Wang Wan couldn't help giving someone a blank look.

Qin Mo: "..."

I didn't deal with your children and grandchildren, why are you staring at me for no reason?
Old Wang Wan turned his attention back to Ying Zheng, and didn't go around the circle, and said bluntly: "I see that this school is full of talents, even princes and princesses are also studying here."

"I also ask Your Majesty to give me the grace to allow my minister's children and grandchildren to come here to study. Even if they can't learn a whole body of art, they can still be disciplined so that they won't be dandies in the future."

As he spoke, he bowed again, his head almost poked on the ground.

Yingzheng suddenly realized, he couldn't laugh or cry and said: "It's such a trivial matter, why does Lao Aiqing have to act like this, I agree."

Old Wang Wan was overjoyed, and bowed again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion."

Seeing that Old Wang Wan begged for grace, the officials did not dare to lag behind, and they all bowed together: "There are dudes and grandchildren in the family of the ministers, I hope His Majesty will be sympathetic and grant the eligibility to study in the academy."

Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect that the ministers valued this school so much.

He actually values ​​this academy now, and has been thinking about opening the academy all over Daqin.

Even if it is not mentioned that the school provides talent reserves for Daqin, it is always a creation that is beneficial to the country and the people.

Just to unify the thinking, it is necessary to open more schools, supplemented by doctors who have compiled Chinese classics since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, to establish the merits of the Great Qin to end the troubled times, and to make the rule of the Great Qin more stable!

But... there is a priority in everything.

Both the conquest of Baiyue and the establishment of a school required a large amount of financial and material resources from the treasury.

Open a large number of schools, which can be done at any time.

The opportunity to conquer Baiyue is once in a thousand years!
But now, the value that the officials attached to the academy made him realize that the importance of the academy might not be worse than that of conquering Baiyue.

At least the school in front of me should not let it go!

"I have agreed, and there will be an edict issued about this school later."

Ying Zheng nodded and agreed to the request of the officials, and then led his children, boarded his luxury six-drive Yuyu car, and returned to the palace in a mighty manner.

Qin Mo and the ministers went out of the school to see each other off.

After seeing Yingzheng and his family away, the officials surrounded Qin Mo, and Old Wang Wan led the way and asked, "President Qin, just passing by the martial arts arena, your disciple Yingbu is driving a four-wheeled carriage. It is similar in workmanship to His Majesty's Yuyu Chariot, and seems quite comfortable, where can I buy it?"

The ministers here will be called by Ying Zheng to accompany them if they can't say it.

Touring Chu in the south is thousands of miles away, and it is easy to travel with a light car. If you can have a comfortable car, it will undoubtedly be much easier.

Especially Lao Wang Wan, if there is a four-wheeled carriage waiting for him, it will not be a life-threatening job to go on tour with him!
Qin Mo looked around, but did not see Gan Luo, and said, "The car is made in the workshop under the jurisdiction of Gan Luo in the Shaofu. You can buy it from Gan Luo, and maybe it will be sold in the market tomorrow."

The ministers suddenly thanked them, and did not stay any longer. They either went back to Yingbu to settle the auction money, or went to the Shaofu Government Office to buy a carriage.

Yingzheng is so eager to patrol Chu, they have to step up their preparations, otherwise they will be the ones who will suffer on the road!
……

Qin Mo sent the officials away, beckoned to Yu Ji and said, "Use a carriage to pull a few boxes of various perfumes and send them to the palace to the eldest princess."

Yu Ji's peach blossom eyes suddenly widened, but she was overjoyed immediately, and rushed back to the academy excitedly: "I'm going now!"

Qin Mo looked confused and didn't understand why she was so happy.

On the other hand, Han Fei stroked his beard and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, by doing this, you want to refuse the marriage with the Eldest Princess?"

Qin Mo nodded, then shook his head again, wondering: "I gave the eldest princess a few boxes of perfume, how did it involve refusing the marriage?"

Han Fei looked him in the eyes, but he couldn't help laughing: "You are still young after all, and you don't know much about men and women."

"It's right for Junhou to give perfume, but Madam Yu should not give it, otherwise it means refusing!"

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Then I will deliver it myself?"

Han Fei didn't nod or shake his head, but just stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Majesty wants to marry the eldest princess, and if you give him perfume, the marriage will be considered successful!"

Qin Mo: "Why don't you give it away?"

Han Fei: "..."

Qin Mo took a deep breath and was speechless for a while.

What the hell, I kindly helped Yuan Man out of the siege, but put myself in a dilemma!

Not giving it away is not just a simple refusal, but involves a character issue of dishonesty.

Is it true that the eldest princess can deceive at will?
Even if Ying Zheng eunuched him, no one pleaded for him!
Qin Mo was speechless for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "The eldest princess wants those perfumes, and I also want to give them to the princes and princesses."

"I asked Concubine Yu to give it directly to the princes and princesses, and each of them gave a copy in an unbiased way, so there must be no more guesswork!"

Han Fei laughed again: "Your Majesty is really whimsical, but it is also feasible."

"However, such procrastination is not a solution after all. It is better for Junhou to make plans early."

"I see Princess Yuanman. Although she is not familiar with beauty, she is quite charming. I think it suits the king's wishes..."

The more Qin Mo listened, the more awkward he became, he hurriedly raised his hand to interrupt him: "Who told you that this Marquis likes mature women?"

Han Fei was surprised: "Your Majesty once sent a hundred acquaintances and beauties to the princes and marquises at one time. Now, who doesn't know which one in Xianyang City?"

Qin Mo: "..."

What the hell, Thief Cao's reputation can't be shaken off!

Qin Mo didn't bother to spend much time on Yuan Man. Anyway, he could delay it for a day. Instead, he said, "Mr. Han Fei, Your Majesty just said it. An edict about this academy will be promulgated later."

"From my point of view, most of the officials are to be appointed to manage it, so my industries should also be separated from the academy."

"There is Mr. Lao Hanfei, please take care of it for me."

Han Fei bowed his hands and said, "Fei is the doorman of the prince, why bother to talk about it!"

Qin Mo nodded, and stopped talking nonsense, let him go to work, and went into the academy to find Yuji, and told her to send perfume to the princes and princesses separately, and be impartial.

Concubine Yu was a little disappointed, but she didn't listen to Qin Mo's words. After agreeing, she drove the carriage to Qin Palace.

However, the chick is obedient, but it is up to her to see who will be sent first and who will be sent later.

Regardless of the law, it is feasible and implemented conscientiously.

So she drove a carriage full of perfume, but Yuan Man was the one who looked for it first!

Seeing that it was her who came to deliver the perfume, Yuan Man remained calm and maintained the upbringing of the eldest princess. After entertaining her for tea, he ordered the waiter to carry the perfume down.

Concubine Yu didn't dare to make further progress when she saw that the trick was working, she put down her teacup and stopped the waiters, saying, "Your gentleman has ordered that these perfumes will be distributed by the servants to the princes and princesses, so I don't bother the eldest princess to distribute them."

The waiters didn't dare to move any further, they all looked at Yuan Man, waiting for her to speak.

Yuan Man was stunned for a moment, but then smiled sweetly, signaling to the waiters that they don't need to move any more, just take one copy.

Then, pulling Yu Ji to sit down to drink tea again, he said meaningfully: "Mr. Qin, you are really a gentleman who values ​​affection."

Concubine Yu didn't know if she understood the meaning of the words, she sipped her tea and nodded her head and said in agreement: "A gentleman is indeed affectionate and righteous."

Yuan Man saw that she was unwilling to reveal her heart, so she said again: "Do you have Qin Xiang's blood in your stomach?"

puff--

Yu Ji took a sip of tea and sprayed it out, coughing and waving her hands again and again.

Asked by others like this, she would never look like this, she might even be complacent, and show off Qin Mo's thoughtfulness again.

But Yuan Man's identity is sensitive now, asking this question is too direct and too explicit, she really can't stand it!

Seeing her waving her hand, Yuan Man couldn't help wondering, "Is there really?"

After all, she has an aristocratic mindset. In her opinion, Qin Mo is unwilling to accept the marriage, and Yu Ji, who is from a humble background, is not an objection.

Concubine Yu can control Qin Mo mostly because of her sons.

After all, Qin Mo was lonely, and if he had children, he must be cautious. It was reasonable to refuse to marry another person, and let the children become bastards.

But now, Yu Ji denied it, which surprised her!

"no!"

Concubine Yu didn't dare to be careless, she held back her cough and answered seriously, explaining: "Actually... the servant and the gentleman have no intimate relationship, at most it's just...cough cough."

Yuan Man was stunned: "Just what?"

Yu Ji: "It's... um... That's the one..."

You are the eldest princess of the Qin Dynasty, do you want to gossip like this and inquire about the secrets of the boudoir?

Yuan Man also knew that she was impolite, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she stopped asking.

The two women sat opposite each other speechless for a long time.

Concubine Yu was too embarrassed, and just as she was about to get up to leave, Yuan Man finally spoke again: "In this way, Prime Minister Qin is really a gentleman who values ​​affection. For you, he pretended to be deaf and dumb to Father's hints. !"

This makes the point clear.

Yu Ji shrank her neck, suddenly regretting that she was the first one to deliver it.

He looked left and right at the strong waiters and servants, if they rushed up and wanted to tear themselves into pieces, could they stop them?
Yu Ji subconsciously touched the sword at her waist, but this touch was in vain.

The saber was confiscated by the Huangmen when it entered the palace gate!
Yuan Man didn't know what she was thinking, so he held up the teacup with a smile and said, "Yuan Man replaces wine with tea, congratulations to you for finding a good gentleman."

Yu Ji trembled and picked up the teacup: "Don't dare, the eldest princess must not do this."

At this time, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside Yuan Man's bedroom, and then several envoys from the Yellow Gate walked in quickly, all of them carrying large and small boxes, and even a luxury four-wheeled car rushed over .

The leader said loudly: "Your Majesty has an order that the Eldest Princess Yuan Man will accompany you to patrol the Chu land, and your Majesty has prepared all the equipment needed for the road!"

Yuan Man hastily put down his teacup, got up and saluted: "I accept the order."

The envoys of the Yellow Gate bowed their hands in return and left the bedroom.

Yuan Man turned around, smiled bitterly and said to Yu Ji: "You can know, what is the intention of the father to let me accompany you?"

Concubine Yu was silent, and after a long while said quietly: "I want to match the eldest princess and the gentleman!"

This time patrolling the Chu land, Qin Mo must accompany him, there is no doubt about it.

Now that Ying Zheng has appointed Yuan Man to accompany him, the intention is self-evident, even a fool can guess it.

Yuan Man nodded helplessly: "Of course, what do you want to say?"

Concubine Yu was silent again, but her expression was a bit weird, and she laughed at herself after a while: "I come from a humble background, and I love vanity."

"I don't even know why a gentleman loves me? Do you want to love me so much?"

"To the point of rejecting a noble and beautiful woman like the Eldest Princess as a wife!"

She said it easily, as if she was expressing the doubts that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time.

But in the words, he no longer calls himself a servant, obviously his heart is not peaceful, and he is also disgusted with his humble origin.

Yuan Man's mind is delicate, so how can she not hear the sadness in her relaxation: "That's why I say, Qin Xiang is a true gentleman who values ​​love and righteousness."

"My brother Fusu once said that the so-called royal nobles, in the eyes of Prime Minister Qin, are no different from the ordinary people in the head of Guizhou."

"Presumably in Qin Xiang's eyes, the visitor is not much different from my eldest princess. Even if there is a difference, it is only in appearance..."

When Yuan Man said this, he couldn't help but look at Yu Ji's burden that didn't match her age, and suddenly realized what kind of game "that's that" is.

Very visual!
Yuan Man shook his head to shake off the dirty picture, and continued: "If you can accompany Qin to share joys and sorrows, live in that simple hut together, and go to war outside the Great Wall together, how can Prime Minister Qin not love you?"

This relief is well-founded.

Concubine Yu knew about it, but in the face of the emperor's pressure, how could she be relieved of the powerlessness in her heart, so she bravely said angrily, "I'm afraid I won't be able to take the position of Mrs. Hou!"

Yuan Man suddenly had question marks all over his head: "???"

Seeing her strange eyes, Yu Ji quickly accepted the truth and said, "I will take my leave first."

Saying that, Ma Liu got up, and without giving Yuan Man another chance to keep him, he quickly jumped into the carriage and went to deliver the perfume elsewhere.

Yuan Man watched her go, but couldn't laugh or cry.
