Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 379

"Uncle, taking the state as a fief is the great honor of my uncle, nothing else. Why can't my uncle accept it?"

Qing Ji felt despicable for persecuting and using Ji Zha, an old man in his seventies.

But, I have to do it!
It is necessary to squeeze out the last trace of value of Ji Zha.

Moreover, this is no loss for Ji Zha!
Qingji hoped to set an example that Jizha was enfeoffed in the state, and that hereditary succession would be an example, and once again attract a large number of talents into Wu to work for him.

Compared with other countries in the world, Wu is good everywhere, but Wu Wang Qingji is too "stingy"!
What kind of stingy trick?

The countries of the world all grant fiefdoms to ministers and ministers of meritorious service, but the state of Wu only grants food towns, and it is not the kind of hereditary replacement!
But now, if Qingji had given Ji Zha Yizhou as his fiefdom and hereditary replacement.

It is conceivable that the ministers and officials of the state of Wu will definitely follow Ji Zha's example and strive to obtain a hereditary fief when they retire!

Until then, Ji Zha also guessed what was going on in Qingji's mind.

It's just that Ji Zha didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Your Majesty..."

At this moment, Queen Ji Pao, who had been sitting on the majesty's platform, followed the lotus steps lightly, came to Qingji, smiled lightly and said: "Uncle, who worked hard in the country of Wu and the king, has made great achievements."

"Ordinary rewards are no longer able to recognize the merits of the uncle, only the fiefdom."

"My uncle doesn't want a hereditary succession. According to my concubine's opinion, why doesn't your majesty entrust my uncle to the prefecture? As for whether it will be a hereditary replacement in the future, it depends on my uncle's own plan."

Hearing this, Qingji and Ji Zha couldn't help but shine!
This is undoubtedly a compromise!

Ji Ji really is Huizhi Lanxin!
"good!"

Qingji glanced at Jizha meaningfully, and asked, "Uncle, what do you think of the queen's suggestion?"

"Since the king and queen love you so much, then the old minister will be disrespectful."

Only then did Ji Zha thank you.

What a stubborn old man!

Looking at Ji Zha, who is indifferent to fame and fortune, Qingji is really angry and funny.

However, Ji Zha is always worthy of respect!
On the surface, Jizha's state fief is still hereditary, but Jizha can make a will at any time to pass on his inheritance to future generations, or return it to the country!

Qingji is willing to let Ji Zha and his descendants come to Yizhou from a mere state.

After all, Ji Zha has done a lot for Qing Ji and Wu Guo!

No matter how despicable Qingji is, he can't do the things like Goujian and Liu Bang in history, "the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks, the birds are exhausted, and the good bow is hidden"!

And there is no need!

For Qingji, if you can share adversity, you can share wealth!
"Uncle, if you retire after success, who can take over the position of Dazai?"

Qingji asked again.

This is asking Ji Zha for a recommendation.

At the same time, it is to give Ji Zha a face!
Hearing the words, Ji Zha thought for a moment, and then said: "Report to Your Majesty, the current state of Wu in our country is very talented in governing the country."

"If you want to be recommended by an old minister, the position of Taizai may be decided by the Prime Minister on the Right, and the Prime Minister on the Left, Fan Li, who governs millet internal history, or Kong Qiu, who was appointed by the Da Xing Ling."

"These four people all have the talents to use in the world economy, and they are worthy of great responsibilities!"

"good."

Qing Ji nodded slightly, expressing his agreement.

His thinking coincides with Jizha's.

It is true that the state of Wu has a lot of talents in governing the country now, but Qingji still needs to carefully consider who will be appointed to take over the position of Dazai!
"Your Majesty, my minister, I also want to retire after success."

After Ji Zha stepped back, Grand Sima Sun, who had been sitting silently for a long time, got up and bowed.

"Da Sima, why did you abandon your widow?"

This was something that Qingji never expected.

It is understandable that Ji Zha returned home after resigning from his old age, and retired bravely, but why did Sun Ping resign along with him?

"Your Majesty, I am also in my sixtieth year. I feel powerless every time I deal with military affairs. I also ask Your Majesty to allow me to beg for bones and return home when I am old."

Sun Ping bowed deeply to Qingji.

He is serious!
Sun Ping is Sun Wu's father, and he is also over [-] years old, but his body is still very strong, basically there are no major disasters or minor illnesses!
The head of a civil servant and the head of a military general are going to retire at this time?

This made Qingji feel unacceptable.

When Qingji was silent, Sun Ping sighed again: "In the early years, I had the heart of retreating, and devoted myself to the ambition of mountains and rivers. Thanks to the great love of the king, I promised to drive, and finally I realized my ambition."

"Now, our country of Wu's military strength is far stronger than before. Therefore, I would like to abdicate to let the virtuous, and I hope that the king will allow it!"

Hearing this, Qing Ji shook his head and said, "Da Sima, it's not that I want to make things difficult for others. However, after you retire, who can take over the position of Da Sima?"

"Sun Wu and Wu Zixu are far more talented than my ministers, and they are more than enough to be the great Sima of Wu."

Sun Ping said sincerely.

indeed!

Whether it is Sun Wu or Wu Zixu, their ability is higher than that of Sun Ping!

Moreover, after so many years of war, Sun Wu and Wu Zixu have made countless contributions to the state of Wu.

However, this is not an excuse for Sun Ping to resign and go into seclusion!

"Ugh!"

Qing Ji let out a long sigh, stepped forward and took Sun Ping's arm, and said, "Great Sima, I can't bear to force you to stay. However, my country of Wu is also at the time of employing people."

"The widow prefers Sun Wu to inherit the position of Grand Sima. The father and son are both Grand Sima of the State of Wu. It must be a good story."

"If Da Sima wants to resign, please wait until Sun Wu returns from Lingnan."

Hearing this, Sun Ping could only say helplessly: "My subject, please obey the king's orders!"

Qingji is clearly procrastinating!
However, Sun Bing could only accept it.

In fact, Qing Ji could also guess why Sun Ping resigned from office, and retired after his success.

In the state of Wu, the Sun family can be said to be very prominent generals!
Grand Sima Sun Ping and Yushi Dafu Sun Wu, the positions of the three princes accounted for two!

Sun Ping's daughter, Sun Li, also became Qingji's concubine. She led the army to expand the territory in the six counties of Lingnan.

Sun Ping, Sun Wu and his son have made countless contributions to Wu Guoli over the years.

How can such a feat be rewarded?
If this were placed in the state of Jin, the Sun family would probably be directly at the level of the Six Ministers, the one with a vast fiefdom!
Great power!

This was what Sun Ping was most worried about.

As a person who celebrates Ji, although he can't do anything to harm meritorious ministers, there is no guarantee that the king of later generations will take the opportunity to liquidate the Sun family who have worked hard and made great achievements.

Therefore, taking advantage of this time, what Sun Ping wanted to do the most was to retreat bravely and accept as soon as it was good.

Don't let anyone find out about the Sun family!
