Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 424: Get rid of the Prime Minister first (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

Seeing that Feng Quji had lost his previous prestige, the Second Emperor naturally stopped playing word games with him.

Masters compete with each other, and there are tricks everywhere between the lines.

Not to mention the emperor and prime minister of a country.

Seeing Feng Quji's expression change drastically, Fusu said again:

"The Prime Minister came to advise me today, and I will accept it today. Not only that, I also want to reward the Prime Minister."

Feng Quji quickly declined.

"Your Majesty, this is a matter that belongs to me. I have misunderstood your Majesty today and I am confused. Please take back your order. I will never dare to accept this reward."

Fusu just smiled brightly after hearing this.

"The prime minister is the head of all the officials. What the prime minister does is what the ministers strive to emulate. Today I just set up a servant and a few servants to help me with some chores. When the prime minister heard about it, he drove here Advise me. Presumably in the future, if I do other things, not only the prime minister will come, but also the court officials will flock to my Zhangtai Palace."

"I think back when the late emperor was still alive, unless important ministers came to see him in an urgent matter, this important place in Zhangtai was always accessible only if summoned. I have seen what the prime minister has done, and within ten days, I am afraid that all the ministers will come to Zhangtai Palace. Remonstrance. When I first came to the throne, I was able to make Zhangtai Palace such a grand event. In this case, I naturally have to thank the Prime Minister for what he did today."

Feng Quji listened and his lips trembled slightly, but he didn't dare to say anything now.

At this time, it is too late to say anything, and the more you say, the more wrong you say.

"Come here, give the Prime Minister the famous sword Chunjun that the late Emperor gave me when he was still alive."

Feng went to listen quickly, and now he knew that he knew where he was wrong.

Feng Quji stood up in panic, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Fusu.

"Your Majesty, Chunjun means unparalleled nobleness in the world. It was given to the king by the late emperor and praised the king for his excellence. The ministers really dare not accept it. Please take back the order."

Shen Yu had a very wink, he knew that His Majesty said so much just to let the prime minister know what to do, he had better not stop him.

At the moment, Feng Quji was trembling with fear, looking like he was aging.

"Your Majesty, I think that the Pure Jun Sword was a wedding gift personally given to Your Majesty by the late Emperor. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to give it to the Prime Minister."

Feng Quji also said hurriedly:
"Since this is the case, I dare not accept it."

After hearing this, Fusu looked like he was thinking again.

"The minister reminds me that I have forgotten it. This pure Jun is a wedding gift given to me by the late emperor, and it has extraordinary significance."

The prime minister's expression softened slightly.

He originally came to advise His Majesty the Emperor to withdraw his order and not to appoint a Vice Minister as a Viceroy, but Shen Yu came to his rescue at this time. Naturally, he could not bring up the matter of deposing the position of Vice Minister again.

"Then what should I give the Prime Minister?"

Fusu muttered to himself, and then said:
"The Prime Minister was the first minister who came to remonstrate with me after I ascended the throne. I gave him a jade Ruyi to replace the jade guide. In the future, when the Prime Minister goes to court, he will hold this Ruyi jade when he goes to court."

Feng Qu quickly moved his lips, but he did not dare to refuse anymore.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I hope that when the Prime Minister sees this jade Ruyi in the future, he will be able to think of what happened today."

Feng Quji bowed:
"I respectfully obey His Majesty's edict."

Fusu stood up.

The Prime Minister bent his waist even lower.

"The Prime Minister is the Prime Minister, the head of all officials. I hope that the Prime Minister can assist me with all his heart in the future, and jointly continue the destiny of our country, Qin."

Feng Quji listened and said hello one after another.

With that said, Fusu patted Feng Quji on the shoulder.

"I want to establish prestige in the court. For such important matters, I need the help of the Prime Minister. I will have to trouble the Prime Minister more in the future."

……

……

……

This afternoon, the streets were bustling with people coming and going.

A carriage pulled by four horses drove slowly through the street.

The owner of this carriage can be easily guessed.

The prime minister of Qin.

Sure enough, the carriage finally arrived in front of the Feng family's house.

When he got home, his son Feng Jie saw his father's face was pale and tired.

"Didn't my father go to the court to see His Majesty? How much advice could he give me? I don't know, but after my father left, several officials from the court came to visit my father one after another, all for this reason."

Feng Quji listened, but frowned slightly.

"First go and invite your uncle to come to my study, and then you will come too."

When Feng Jie saw his father's face, he already had an idea, but he didn't expect that his father would actually ask him to invite his uncle.

This shows that something big must have happened in the palace.

At the same time, a scholar floated past in front of Feng Mansion.

It seems that the new emperor has already established his authority in front of the prime minister, which means that he also wants to reuse the old ministers who won the government in the past.

……

……

……

Xianyang Palace.

Zhangtai.

Chi Wu probably heard about the prime minister's humiliation in front of the emperor today, and finally left the palace in anger.

Chi Wu was not surprised at all.

The old master has left and a new master has been established, but it is not that simple if the new master wants all ministers to obey him.

The problem of His Majesty's current age is nothing more than the difference in strength between his opponents and the problem that the late emperor faced back then.

Feng Quji cannot compare with Lu Buwei, nor is he the Lord of Changping.

So that evening, when Fu Su was resting, Chi Wu was ready to go and came to see him with a solemn expression.

When Fusu saw this scene for the first time, he naturally felt strange.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say that I would like to ask Your Majesty to listen to."

Seeing that he was so serious, Fusu felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

Fusu retreated to the left and right, leaving only Chi Wu with him.

"What is it?"

Chi Wu paced.

"Your Majesty, I heard that many people are talking about you in private recently."

Fusu felt relieved after hearing this.

"Just for this?"

Chi Wu was a little confused.

"It turns out that Your Majesty knows how outsiders talk about Your Majesty."

"You tell me first and listen. Apart from saying that I am lazy and not as diligent as the late Emperor, what else do they say?"

"That's just what the servants in the palace spread. In the eyes of the ministers, what your Majesty lacks most is courage. Whether your Majesty is diligent or not is second to none. The key is that your Majesty does not have the power of the late emperor."

Chi Wu, there is a certain reason why Fusu kept him until now.

What he said today was obviously for his own good.

"Then you can tell me how I can establish my authority."

Chi Wu was right, he was already the emperor, and if he kept talking, he would just make himself look powerful.

"Your Majesty still remembers General Huanjue of Qin."

"Of course I remember. Back then, Huanjie attacked Zhao Pingyang, killed Zhao general Hu Zou, and beheaded [-] people."

"Then His Majesty knows, what happened to Huanju later?"

"Failure and escape."

"Does Your Majesty think that because of Huan Jue's merits, he should be killed after a single defeat?"

When Fusu heard this, he naturally understood.

Chi Wu wanted him to have the power of life and death.

"When the late emperor was still alive, every time someone went against his will and exerted his authority even slightly, some of his ministers would be afraid of him. Now, your majesty only threatens you with words, but the ministers are not afraid of your majesty."

(My birthday is tomorrow, happy birthday to me! Good night and sweet dreams, everyone!)
