Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 10 Chariot General Zhao Yi

"Your Majesty, is this serious? A severe drought in Sichuan?" Li Si couldn't believe it, and asked Ying Zheng in a voiceless voice.

"Feng Quji, how is the errand I asked you to do?" Ying Zheng snorted coldly and looked at Feng Quji.

Feng Quji was sweating like rain. At this time, the officials under the right minister hurried forward from outside the hall. It was the official who Feng Quji arranged to go to Shu to investigate the situation. The Black Ice Terrace described generally the same.

When the ministers in the hall heard this, their pupils dilated. Li Si was even more stunned on the spot, as if he still couldn't believe it.

Ying Zheng looked at these ministers under the steps, feeling extremely worried. Is this the capable ministers and officials whom he relies on?It was just too disappointing for him.

Thanks to him being able to hear Zhao Yi's heartfelt thoughts, otherwise the affairs of the Shu land would have been kept secret.

If the officials below have been fooled, once a refugee wave breaks out in Shu, the consequences will be disastrous!

Li Si, as the prime minister on the left, the head of all the officials, was unaware of what happened in Shu, he couldn't escape the blame!
Thinking of this, Li Si hurriedly stepped forward to admit his mistake, "Your Majesty, I have neglected my duty, and I am ashamed to be Prime Minister, please punish me!"

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth, now is not the time to settle accounts after autumn, thanks to Zhao Yi, the matter is not out of control, otherwise he will really kill!

"Li Si, immediately work with Zhili Neishi to draw up a charter to rescue the Shu area as soon as possible."

"The land of Shu is the granary of our Great Qin, there must be no mistakes!"

"Minister, obey the order!" Li Si hurriedly kowtowed and agreed, not daring to neglect in the slightest.

Immediately afterwards, Ying Zheng looked at the imperial censor, "Feng Jie, you are responsible for supervising officials in various places. Now that something like this is happening in Shu, you cannot escape the blame!"

"From now on, all officials in the Shu region will be strictly investigated. During the subsequent disaster relief process, whoever dares to defy the law, or corrupts the law by taking money, will be the Yi tribe!"

"Minister, obey the order!" Hearing that Ying Zheng said all the words of the Yi tribe, everyone knew that Ying Zheng was angry, so Feng Jie hurriedly agreed.

When the matter of Beidi and Shudi finally came to an end, Li Si and the others hadn't forgotten about Zhao Yi.

"Your Majesty!" Li Si noticed that Ying Zheng's face had softened, and he gritted his teeth and stepped forward, "I want to take part in the crime of dereliction of duty by His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince!"

See Zhao Yi?Ying Zheng suddenly became angry.

If it wasn't because of Zhao Yi this time, Daqin would really be in big trouble. His right-hand man, who is so flamboyant, still wants to play his own son!
good, very good, excellent!I want to see what you are planning to do with Zhao Yi!
Seeing that Ying Zheng didn't speak, Li Si thought it was his approval, so he continued.

"It has been ten years since His Majesty issued the decree and appointed His Highness the Ninth Highness as the minister."

"However, for such a long time, His Highness the Ninth Prince has been doing nothing in the Huangzhuang outside the city, and has never entered the palace to perform his duties."

"I think that even if His Majesty agrees, His Highness the Ninth Prince doesn't need to be in front of you all the time, but you should have the awareness to be a servant of my great Qin!"

"That's right!" As soon as Li Si spoke, Zhao Gao, who had been silent all this time, also jumped out.

"Your Majesty, for ten days, this is not a sinister job. Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince, has not entered the palace to serve His Majesty during these ten days. Instead, he slept in the palace outside the city. This is definitely not what a minister should do!"

"It can be seen that His Majesty the Ninth Prince is unable to take on such important responsibilities. His Majesty should quickly remove him from his position and appoint another worthy person."

Ying Zheng squinted his eyes, watching Li Si and Zhao Gao's performance, feeling indifferent.

If it wasn't because he had listened to Zhao Yi's heart, maybe he, like Li Si and Zhao Gao, thought that Zhao Yi could only be raised outside the palace and be an idle commoner for the rest of his life.

But since Ying Zheng heard it, he knew that Zhao Yi couldn't be allowed to remain mediocre.

Ying Zheng saw very clearly how capable his son was.

Regardless of economics, politics, military affairs, or even literary talent, they are all leaders in the world and are rare talents.

Zhao Yi now occupies a considerable position in Ying Zheng's mind.

Take this incident as an example, if it wasn't for Zhao Yi, then the current Daqin Chaotang would be devastated and completely at a loss.

That's why Ying Zheng felt funny when he heard Li Si and Zhao Gao's advice.

Ying Zheng stood tall, and all the ministers silenced, looking up at the eternal emperor in front of him.

All I heard was Ying Zheng's loud announcement: "The post of General Cheqi has been vacant since General Wang resigned."

Although Ying Zheng's words did not answer the question, the content attracted more attention.

The position of General Cheqi is an important weapon in the country. After the famous general Wang Jian, the General Cheqi has been vacant. Everyone thinks that Ying Zheng is worried that the power of General Cheqi will be too powerful and will not be easily awarded to anyone.

After all, this position is the commander-in-chief of a country during the war. Even if there are deputy commanders and military supervisors restricting him, after all, he will not be subject to the orders of the foreign emperor.

General Cheqi has the same real power as the Taiwei, and can even recruit followers and private soldiers, which is quite powerful in Qin State.

Nowadays, the name of General Chariot and Cavalry has been forgotten for a long time. Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng would take the initiative to mention it in the court meeting.

Everyone was looking forward to Ying Zheng's next words with great hope, and only heard Ying Zheng continue to speak.

"I am going to confer the title of Ninth Prince Zhao Yi as the General of Chariots, to live in the Palace of Generals of Chariots in Xianyang City, and enjoy the power to open the mansion."

Almost like a bolt from the blue, all the ministers in the hall were burned to pieces.

Just now, so many ministers were still participating in Zhao Yi's performance. However, when they turned around, their emperor actually wanted to promote Zhao Yi to an official position, and it was such an important position as a general of chariots and cavalry. How could the ministers agree?

Who is Zhao Yi? What credit does he have? He is not even willing to let him take credit, let alone a general on horseback!
"Your Majesty!" Li Si got up and knelt down under the steps, "I implore Your Majesty to withdraw your order. Your Majesty Ninth Prince has never shown any talent. How can he take on such an important task and convince everyone?"

As soon as Li Si spoke, all the officials agreed. Seeing these officials talking about Zhao Yi one by one, a look of disdain flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes.

A bunch of idiots, when you know Zhao Yi's talent, you will know what it means to be ashamed.

They are all a group of guys who can only listen to what others say, they only judge people based on their feelings, and they don't know how talented they are!

Ying Zheng looked smug, because he was the only one who could hear Zhao Yi's heart.

Ying Zheng even thought that this was the auspiciousness bestowed upon him by God after he became the First Emperor, and Zhao Yi was naturally regarded by Ying Zheng as his lucky star.

In addition, Zhao Yi has made such a great contribution to him this time and must be rewarded well.

But Ying Zheng would definitely not tell the ministers about Zhao Yi's inner voice.

"This matter is settled like this." Ying Zheng stood up, and the officials were in an uproar.

Even if Yingzheng would refute the opinions of his courtiers on weekdays, he would not be so arbitrary.

And it was just for such a mediocre and incompetent prince...
