Control the ancestors and create an immortal family starting from the Qin Dynasty

Liu Fuling looked at Zhang Xiangqi deeply.

Then he glanced at Zhang Xingmin below.

He looked at Zhang Xingmin and saw that he had a gloomy expression. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and then his gaze rested on Zhang Xiangqi.

He nodded to the servant beside him.

The servant next to him understood what His Majesty meant and immediately stepped forward and shouted.

"The General of Chariots and Cavalry has worked hard and made great contributions. He brought back the heads of the rebels and enhanced the prestige of our Han nation. I am now specially appointed as the Marquis of Zhengbei and given a fief of 1,000 households!"

boom!
This statement came out.

Everyone in the court was stunned.

They looked at Liu Fuling in shock.

Could they have heard it wrong?
Your Majesty actually wants to confer the title of marquis on the Zhang family.

This is to allow the Zhang family to join the ranks of the nobility.

How can it be?

The Zhang family is now unrivaled in terms of strength.

Even a noble family has been established.

As long as nothing unexpected happens, the Zhang family will surely prosper.

Moreover, the Zhang family is a prominent family.

Zhang Wei and Zhang Xingmin are already a mountain.

The pressure was so great that they couldn't breathe.

Now there is one more marquis.

As long as this person becomes a marquis, he will have the possibility of being crowned king or appointed prime minister.

Why is the Zhang family so lucky?

How come they have so many talented people?

"Your Majesty, please take back your order."

Sudden.

Someone stood out from the line.

He bowed to Liu Fuling and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please take back your order!"

"Oh?"

Liu Fuling looked at the person who stood out with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, wasn't this person from the Zhang family camp?

Although he is young.

But he is not a fool.

He also knew that he had ascended the throne at a young age, and his control over the court was not particularly strong.

When he was young, Zhang Wei and Zhang Xingmin did not care about the affairs of the court.

The power in the court was basically controlled by the Grand Marshal.

In order to secure his throne.

He can only get close to Da Sima?

But what he never expected was that due to his closeness, Da Sima became more and more demanding and even arranged a marriage for him that he was not satisfied with.

This matter was meaningless to Zhang Wei and Zhang Xingmin, and the prime minister and others also stood by and watched.

He was once depressed about not being able to control his own life.

But after he sorted out the matter.

He felt that he was being too pretentious.

He doesn't have that ability.

There is no way to stabilize the court.

The only one he can rely on is Da Sima.

He couldn't resist anyone.

He could only watch these people riding on his head.

nowadays.

It's hard to get a chance to get rid of Zhang Wei.

But Zhang Wei arranged a Zhang Xiangqi.

Maybe all this was Zhang Wei's plan.

He may have already figured out the conspiracy between him and the Grand Marshal.

That's why this person took advantage of the situation.

Let this person go on a diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Loulan, kill the king of Loulan, and then return to Kyoto with his head to replace Zhang Wei.

What a good plan.

He is worthy of being the regent.

As expected, he is a member of the Zhang family.

The reason why he rewarded Zhang Xiangqi this time.

I just want these people to kill each other.

Just to cause discord among them.

But things didn't go according to his schedule.

The people who came out were not Zhang Xingmin and Tian Qianqiu.

The person who stood up to ask him to take back his decision was actually just a small and unknown person.

Liu Fuling was a little disappointed.

But he still asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"

"The General of Chariots and Cavalry has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, killed the rebel king, and promoted the prestige of the Han Dynasty, making the neighboring countries submit. It is only right that you should be given a title of nobility!"

The people below looked at Liu Fuling.

Then he said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the General of Chariots and Cavalry just said that if you eat the emperor's salary, you should share the emperor's worries!"

"These are what a great general should do. Why does Your Majesty need to lavishly reward him?"

"Besides, it is not convenient for the general to stay in the capital for long. Your Majesty may as well reward the general of the chariot and cavalry with some military supplies and let him take them back to the north. It can also help us soldiers to defeat the Xiongnu!"

"This……"

Liu Fuling looked embarrassed.

He has already issued the imperial edict.

Isn't it a little late for this person to jump out and say these things now?
However, what he said does make some sense.

Zhang Xiangqi must not stay in Beijing for long.

But it cannot be allowed to return to the north.

This person is a general of the Zhang family.

It was Zhang Wei who trained him personally.

If Zhang Xiangqi were allowed to return to the north and join Zhang Wei's camp, it would be equivalent to giving Zhang Wei an extra powerful general.

If this person were to stay with Zhang Wei, what chances would his plan have of success?

This person can't stay in Kyoto, nor can he go to the north, so where can he go?
Liu Fuling was puzzled.

Just when Liu Fuling was confused.

Tian Qianqiu looked at Zhang Xingmin who was standing not far away.

Zhang Xingmin stood calmly at his position, with no intention of intervening.

Seeing Zhang Xingmin like this.

Tian Qianqiu couldn't help but want to laugh.

This guy is really interesting.

He was obviously extremely anxious, but he had to pretend to be calm.

I don’t know who it is for.

Seeing that Zhang Xingmin was unwilling to show up, Tian Qianqiu naturally had no one to watch.

This matter is about them, too.

If Zhang Wei and Zhang Xingmin were allowed to dominate the court.

How can they ever succeed?
Zhang Wei is the head of the civil servants.

Zhang Xingmin has a high prestige in the army.

If Zhang Xingmin were granted the title of nobility, the Zhang family's position in the court would become even more stable.

This is not a good thing for them.

If it could be destroyed.

If there is someone to help.

He still wanted to help.

Therefore, Liu Fuling looked embarrassed.

Tian Qianqiu stood up, bowed to Liu Fuling, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I also think this is inappropriate."

"Your Majesty, please take back your order."

"The General of Chariots and Cavalry has worked hard and made great contributions to the Han Dynasty. He deserves a reward, but your majesty's reward is a bit too heavy, which will make others feel disappointed."

"There are a few more counties in the southwest. How about appointing the General of Chariots and Cavalry as the Protectorate General of the Western Regions and letting him guard the Western Regions and the gates of the Han Dynasty?"

"hiss!"

As soon as these words came out, the people around couldn't help but turn their eyes to Tian Qianqiu.

He is worthy of being the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty.

These words are indeed meaningful.

Protectorate of the Western Regions.

This is much higher than the position of a marquis.

And he holds real power.

As long as Zhang Xiangqi accepts this order.

He is the Grand Commander.

He is also the highest administrative officer of the entire southwestern counties.

That is something that countless people cannot obtain even if they ask for it.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Zhang Xiangqi.

Want to know Zhang Xiangqi’s decision?
This position looks very loud though.

But it's a fatal position.

There are constant disputes in the Western Regions, and there are many tribes. Unrest may occur if you are not careful. Anyone who goes to the Protectorate will be in danger of his life.

The imperial court also sent several generals.

Let them guard the Protectorate.

But all failed.

Now, if Zhang Xiangqi goes to the Western Regions Protectorate.

Maybe now is the time for them to take action.

When Liu Fuling heard this, a smile appeared in his eyes, and then he looked at Zhang Xiangqi silently: "What do you think, General?"

Zhang Xiangqi had already started cursing in his heart.

Does His Majesty always change his mind every day?
He had just conferred the title of Marquis of Zhengbei on himself.

Now they are taking back their decision. What does this mean?
You're making a fool of yourself.

But he still didn't dare to resist.

He could only clasp his hands and say to Liu Fuling: "I am willing to serve your majesty."

"it is good!"

Liu Fuling looked very happy.

He nodded to the followers around him.

The attendant looked at the big man and announced the summons again.

This time.

Liu Fuling did not remove the other party's title of Marquis of Zhengbei, nor did he cut off his fief of 1,000 households.

Instead, on this basis, he was given the position of Protectorate of the Western Regions.

After the people below heard Liu Fuling's decision.

Everyone's eyes widened.

They looked at His Majesty in disbelief.

What does your majesty want to do?
Is this a lavish reward to the Zhang family?

The Zhang family is now at its peak.

If only there were one more position for a marquis and one more protectorate.

Who else can deal with the Zhang family?
The nobility is set in stone.

Tian Qianqiu was also dumbfounded.

Did he mean it?

He just said this because he wanted Your Majesty to make a choice.

Then just give Your Majesty a choice.

But Your Majesty actually gave both of these benefits to the Zhang family.

He didn't know how strong Zhang Xiangqi was.

But he knew very well how strong Zhang Wei was.

He didn't really have much hope.

I don’t think Zhang Xiangqi would die in the Western Regions Protectorate.

He just wanted to take a gamble.

If the other party really died in the Western Regions, it would be a good thing for them.

You can also break one of Zhang Wei's arms.

But what if Zhang Xiangqi didn’t die?

If Zhang Xiangqi had not died in the Western Regions Protectorate, wouldn't that be equivalent to giving a boost to the Zhang family?

He also handed over some power in the West to the Zhang family.

This is not something that is worth the loss.

Tian Qianqiu originally wanted to persuade him again.

But Liu Fuling no longer wanted to listen, and instead talked about state affairs.

Tian Qianqiu was completely paralyzed when he saw that His Majesty had made up his mind.

Your Majesty, are you seeking your own death?

Tian Qianqiu did not participate in the subsequent discussions.

The biggest beneficiaries this time turned out to be the Zhang family.

After the court meeting was over, Tian Qianqiu and the Grand Censor couldn't wait to go to the Weiyang Palace.

As soon as I entered the Weiyang Palace, I saw Liu Fuling standing in the center of the hall.

When they saw Liu Fuling, the two men stepped forward, lowered their posture, and saluted Liu Fuling.

"My two dear ministers, please stand up." Liu Fuling said to Tian Qianqiu and the Grand Censor.

The two looked at Liu Fuling.

Then he straightened his body.

As soon as they stood up straight, they heard Liu Fuling's voice.

"Do you two think that what I did was inappropriate?"

Tian Qianqiu and others nodded.

But I dare not say more.

That's exactly the case.

He no longer understands His Majesty's thoughts.

Your Majesty, by doing this, you are only encouraging the other side.

They even want the other party to ride on their heads.

This is not a wise move.

Not a good thing either.

And if this matter really helps the Zhang family, the Han Dynasty may really be helpless against the Zhang family.

How many ministers are now in charge of the government of the Han Dynasty?
And Your Majesty has not yet taken power.

Under this situation.

What Liu Fuling did was indeed inappropriate.

"This is also what Da Sima meant."

Just when Tian Qianqiu and the Imperial Censor were confused.

Liu Fuling's voice rang out again.

When Tian Qianqiu and the Imperial Censor heard Liu Fuling say this, a hint of shock appeared in their eyes again.

This matter is actually related to Da Sima.

How come they don't know?
When did the Grand Marshal tell Your Majesty about these things?

A group of people looked confused.

Looking at Liu Fuling stupidly.

Liu Fuling saw the expressions on the two men's faces.

The expression on his face was not very good, and he told Da Sima and his proposal.

He was just going along with the flow.

However, the title of marquis and the fief of a thousand households were his own idea.

The Zhang family is now extremely large.

And Zhang Wei has already made a promise with him.

If Zhang Wei could return safely from the north and put down the rebellion in the north.

He must force Zhangjia Trading Company to withdraw from the ranks of imperial merchants.

Once the other party withdraws from the ranks of imperial merchants, the Zhang family can do whatever they want.

By the time.

They can show off all the wealth they have accumulated before.

This is the most deadly.

Because this wealth is beyond their imagination.

If it were revealed to others, it might deal them a fatal blow.

He just wants to praise the Zhang family to death.

To make the Zhang family more powerful.

He just didn't believe that the Zhang family's family precepts could be so powerful.

Able to resist the greed and desire in their hearts.

As long as there is one person who can arouse the greed and desire in one's heart.

He can plunge the Zhang family into civil strife.

As long as the Zhang family falls into civil strife, the Han Dynasty's opportunity will come.

He can definitely cooperate with others to see if he can catch the other party in one fell swoop.

This is his ultimate goal.

of course.

This was just his guess and he wouldn't tell anyone.

After Tian Qianqiu and the Imperial Censor learned that this matter was related to the Grand Marshal, their hearts instantly settled down.

Forget it.

Since this matter was discussed by Your Majesty and the Grand Marshal.

Why are they still wasting their breath?

And Your Majesty has already announced the decree.

The emperor’s words are golden.

There is no room for regret.

They could only look at Liu Fuling helplessly and pray silently in their hearts.

We can only hope that Zhang Xiangqi dies on the way to the Western Regions.

If Zhang Xiangqi could die, it would be a good thing for them.

After the two of them left Weiyang Palace.

They all looked a little unhappy.

The Imperial Censor said to Tian Qianqiu: "The Grand Marshal really makes us look at him in a different light."

"I can discuss matters with His Majesty from such a distance."

"It seems that even though the Grand Marshal has gone north, his control over the court has not diminished."

"The Grand Marshal can do this, the Zhang family is much stronger than the Grand Marshal. Do you think Zhang Wei has also left a backup plan in the court?"

The Imperial Censor looked at Tian Qianqiu with some concern.

Although they did not do anything detrimental to the Zhang family during this period.

But they and the Zhang family had always disagreed.

If Zhang Wei wanted to take action against them, it would be easy.

Tian Qianqiu looked at the Imperial Censor.

He said nothing.

Anyway, the arena now belongs to Da Sima and the Zhang family.

What can they do?
I can only watch from the sidelines.

If this matter involves them, they can only appoint.

"Let's take a step by step!"

"Da Sima and Zhang Wei are both in the north now, so we are not without a chance."

"And your majesty's attitude towards the Zhang family is very vague. We can wait and see."

After Tian Qianqiu finished speaking, he turned and left the imperial city.

Your Majesty's attitude towards the Zhang family is somewhat special.

It seems like a lavish reward, but in fact it is a hidden murderous intention.

I just don't know what your majesty's attitude towards the Zhang family is?

Do you intend to take action against the Zhang family?
If His Majesty wants to take action against the Zhang family, then Zhang Xiangqi's trip to the Western Regions Protectorate may be dangerous. (End of this chapter)
