Qin Shi Mingyue Taoist Master Uncle

After hearing this proposal, the rest of the civil and military officials also bowed their hands in unison and said, "Please, the king, inherit the position of the supreme, and be called the emperor!"
Ying Zheng's face remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "I don't want to be the emperor."
After the words fell, many courtiers below were also a little confused. In their view, now that the six kingdoms have all been defeated by Qin, a mere monarch no longer fits the status of Yingzheng, and he should go further and become like Zhou Tianzi.
Based on their understanding of their king, the other party is definitely a man full of ambitions, so he will rule the world.But why reject the offer now?
When everyone was confused, Li Si, the new prime minister, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have unified the six kingdoms, ended hundreds of years of wars, and made the people no longer suffer from wars, and your achievements are even better than those of Shang Tang and Zhou Wu. "
"According to my opinion, no matter whether it is the status of king or son of heaven, it does not match your status, and you should have another title."
Hearing these words, all the ministers suddenly realized that it was not that the king didn't want to be promoted, but he just felt that the title of emperor was not enough, and wanted to have a more powerful and domineering identity.
Now that he has understood the other party's mind, the next step is naturally to do what he likes.
At this time, another courtier stood up and said respectfully, "What Li Xiangguo said is reasonable. The merit and prestige of the king are beyond the reach of the kings of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties."
"I feel that you can imitate the ancient sages and take the title of emperor or emperor!"
Hearing this, the other courtiers also echoed, "That's right, that's right."
In ancient times, the three emperors and five emperors had the most honorable status. After the establishment of the Xia Dynasty, no one received such honors again. Therefore, no matter whether it was Dayu or King Tang, they were only human kings, not human emperors.
King Wu defeated Zhou, destroyed the Shang Dynasty, established the Great Zhou, and called himself the Son of Heaven.In this way, Emperor Xin, king of Zhou, became the last human king.
But today's Yingzheng is obviously no longer satisfied with the title of emperor or king. He wants a more noble status, so the ministers also made such a proposal, wanting to make it a king since the Xia Dynasty. Emperor.
Hearing such an experience, Ying Zheng's expression remained the same, and he said lightly, "I don't know if you have any suggestions, my loves?"
Hearing the question, the civil servants and military generals below also expressed their opinions one after another, wanting to show their faces in front of King Qin.
A doctor said, "In ancient times, there were emperors, emperors, and emperors. Among them, the emperor was the most honorable. The king can be called the emperor."
Then another person said, "I think it is more appropriate for the king to be called the emperor."
At this moment, Prime Minister Li Si said, "Although the Emperor of Thailand and the Emperor of Heaven are honorable, they are both titles of ancient sages, which are inconsistent with today's people."
"Your Majesty is my Great Qin's monarch. From my point of view, it is better to position the title as Emperor Qin."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed a gleam, but he didn't agree immediately, but asked, "Do you have any other ideas?"
Li Si frowned slightly. In his opinion, the title of Emperor Qin should be perfect, not only high-end but also meaningful, but Ying Zheng still didn't seem satisfied.
After proposing more than a dozen proposals, Ying Zheng still didn't adopt them, and many of his ministers were exhausted, looking at the people around them, not knowing what to say.
When Zhao Gao saw this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Based on his understanding of King Qin, the reason why the other party rejected the ministers' proposals repeatedly was probably because he already had an idea, but he was not easy to say it.
That's why I asked other people's opinions, and wanted my courtiers to speak out what was in my heart instead of him.
However, those ministers are all good at governing the country, but they don't understand the king's mind enough, so they are cold.
And Zhao Gao, although he doesn't know how to govern the government, but he understands King Qin's thoughts better than others.
Just now everyone spoke enthusiastically, so he didn't join in the fun.
But now that all the ministers are helpless, it is their turn to show.
Thinking of this, his footsteps moved slightly, and he wanted to say something, but at this moment, a voice sounded first.
"Father, my son has a proposal."
The eldest son Fusu, who was at the head of all the ministers, took a step forward and said.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "What's Fusu thinking, but it's okay to say."
Hearing this, Fusu cupped his hands and said, "Father, your meritorious deeds have surpassed the three emperors and the five emperors. Why don't you take the emperor of the three emperors and the emperor of the five emperors, combine the emperor and the emperor, and call them the emperor!"
Hearing this, a trace of surprise appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes, and then he smiled and said softly, "Emperor."
Then nodded slightly.
Seeing that the king had expressed his opinion, the courtiers below also echoed, "What the eldest son said is true, your achievements are even more than those of the ancient sages, and you should be called the emperor."
They didn't expect that the eldest son, who usually looks honest, would be so flattering. At the same time, they secretly regretted why their brains could not be more flexible and thick-skinned.
Fusu glanced at King Qin above, and continued, "As the first emperor of my Great Qin, you are the beginning of everything. You can be called the first emperor, and you are the first emperor."
"And after you, it will be the second, third, and forever!"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng also laughed, "Hahaha, what Fusu said won the hearts of all."
As he spoke, his satisfaction was already written on his face.
He also didn't expect that his eldest son, who had never liked flattery, would actually say such a thing.
Although there is suspicion of flattering, what he said really made people feel comfortable, and it even coincided with his original thoughts.
Seeing that King Qin was so satisfied, the ministers immediately said, "Your eldest son's words are very kind, it is a credit, and should be rewarded."
"Yes, it should be rewarded."
"Not bad……"
Hearing these words of asking for credit for helping Su, Zhao Gao on the side had a gloomy expression, the corners of his mouth trembling slightly, feeling extremely aggrieved in his heart.
Fusu's words were exactly what he wanted to say, but just when he was about to speak, he was cut off by the other party, so it was a little slower.
This credit should have belonged to me!
