Eternal traitor

Chapter 497

On the second day, the news of the destruction of Qi State spread throughout Qin State, and the whole country was boiling.At the same time, the news of Qin officials' mission to Yan has "unintentionally" spread to the people. The proud Qin people even walk with their nostrils facing the sky, but all Qin people are popular like stars. respect.

In the palace, red and festive decorations have already begun to be dressed up. Whether it is the maids, eunuchs or guards, they all wear red and festive objects. On the main hall, all the officials began to sing praises to King Qin in turn, and words of praise rushed over each other. began to manifest.

"Fusu, do you know what it means for Qi to be destroyed?"

Although he has been excited all night, Ying Zheng, who has received so many people's praise today, still seems very happy. He stopped the endless compliments from all the officials, and Ying Zheng smiled and asked Fu Su who was standing beside Li Hua .

Because of his performance a few days ago, Fusu got permission from Ying Zheng to let him follow Li Hua, Prime Minister of Qin, to get in touch with government affairs in advance, but he just let him watch, and he never had the chance to speak on weekdays.

"My son knows that Qi is the only existence in the world that can compete with Qin. If Qi is destroyed, Yan will have no courage. Qin will become the real master of this world. My son congratulates the father to rule the world."

Fusu talked about the relationship with Ying Zheng in a dignified manner, and after that, he flattered Ying Zheng, and the corners of Ying Zheng's mouth suddenly became curved when he was flattering.

"What my son said is correct, but the world is not the land of the Central Plains. After the Gu has ruled the land of the Seven Kingdoms, the Xiongnu will also become the next enemy of the Qin State. The land occupied by the Huns is no less than that of the Gu. These barbarians have been harassing the Central Plains all year round. , after the lonely rectification, we must let him know the power of the Great Qin."

Yingzheng's excitement has faded a lot. With a clear mind, he knows that there are still big troubles like the Huns around Qin. The territory, strength and number of the Huns are not to be underestimated.Although Yingzheng is confident that Qin is not weaker than the Xiongnu, he still cannot be careless.

"My son is arrogant."

Fusu seemed to realize his mistake, lowered his head and shrank back.

"The king is so victorious without arrogance, and his ambition is still undiminished. This is the luck of Qin."

Li Hua stood up and made a lot of noise. As soon as he said this, the courtiers behind him who were waiting to be flattered were ready to continue flattering, but Li Hua then said another sentence, "Your Majesty will To unify the world, this feat has never been done before or since. I think that in order to commemorate the majesty of the king, the building of the new palace needs to be scaled up. The garden may be built, and it will be completed within a hundred days by gathering the power of the whole country. Finish."

"No."

As soon as Li Hua finished speaking, Ying Zheng above stopped him. "If it consumes the power of the whole country, it will damage the reputation of Gu Gu, not to mention that the scale is already objective, and there is no need to increase the scale."

"Your Majesty Yingming."

"It can't be increased any more. Just stop fighting and all industries are waiting to be flourished. We can't waste money and people anymore."

"It is not benevolent for Li Xiang to harm the country so much."

·············
As soon as Ying Zheng's words came out, the wind direction changed immediately, and Li Hua became the target of public criticism again, and everyone's target of attack.The king has a good reputation, so such an act of laboring the people, wasting money, harming others and benefiting himself is not the act of a wise king. Now that you can cheer up a wave of goodwill, you don’t need to do anything, isn’t it beautiful? ?
Marquis Shu who was sitting on the chair did not speak, while Fusu bowed his head and remained silent, Gu Huaye pretended not to hear and remained silent, Qin Wudi pretended to be deaf and dumb, and the people who were close to Li Hua remained silent. His situation was pushed to the top of the limelight in an instant.

"All courtiers, Your Majesty, please listen to what Li said."

Li Hua shouted loudly, and the voice of whispering quickly disappeared, how can Li Hua also be Qin Xiang, a trivial matter will not remove him from his official position, but if they take revenge, it will not be good, and the face should be given, just now But it was because King Qin spoke up.

Seeing that everyone stopped criticizing, Li Hua bowed to Ying Zheng, and then bowed to all the courtiers. "Your Majesty ruled the world, exterminated the five kingdoms of Zhao, Han, Wei, Chu, and Qi, and the kingdom of Yan is even more within reach now. How can such achievements be the same as ordinary palaces? Not to mention building a bigger palace. According to the truth, we will After the surrender of the Yan Kingdom, the title of king is not even enough to show the achievements of the king, so it should be changed to emperor."

"Li Xiang was joking. Although Gu has made some achievements, how can he exaggerate?? This matter should not be joked anymore."

Ying Zheng quickly declined. On the surface, he did not support Li Hua's decision, but Li Hua's behavior was entirely at his behest.The new palace increased its construction strength, built gardens, and changed it to emperor.That's why he went to Li Hua, the overall situation was settled, he had to change from king to emperor in his new palace, King Qin was no longer suitable for him.

"Your Majesty is not exaggerating. Throughout the ages, the kings of Qin have always wanted to dominate, but who would have imagined that Your Majesty is so talented and grand? He can do what others cannot. I think that the old rules must be broken, saying that Why not the emperor?? Don’t all the ministers still want the king to sit on the same level as the king of Han, the king of Chu and the king of Yan?”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the court fell silent. Naturally, the king of Qin could not sit on an equal footing with these kings who had already subjugated the country, so it was only natural to change his title. Why not proclaim yourself emperor?

Seeing that everyone, including King Qin, was silent, Li Hua continued to speak. "I know that the king is benevolent, but the construction of a new palace is not for the benefit of the king alone. The magnificent palace can shock the people of the world and show the achievements of the king. The king is concerned about the waste of money and money, so it is not good to let the captured Qi people build it. If it is well built Freedom will be given after completion. Although there will be no wages during the construction period, these Qi people who should have been executed now only need to work for a hundred days to be pardoned. How can these people not be grateful for such a generous move?? Your Majesty, colleagues , In this way, without spending much money, it can also show the king's benevolence and righteousness, and it can even shock the world with this, wouldn't it be beautiful?"

"This··········"

Li Hua's generous words made everyone a little confused, even Ying Zheng, who had stopped this behavior just now, stopped talking, and all the courtiers fell silent.What Li Hua said was right and sound, but in the end it was a waste of time and money, but after all that was said, Li Hua didn't benefit at all, it was all Ying Zheng's profit. They didn't know if Li Hua was acting with Ying Zheng, with one red face and the other black face? ?
