Chapter 153: Zhao Feng Is Appointed as the Commander of the Guard Army! Great Joy!

"Is there really a reason? Not as the Bai family said?" Wang Wan couldn't help but think at this moment.

Mainly seeing Zhao Feng in the hall was extremely calm, and he was not panicked at all when facing Bai Wu's impeachment.

He looked prepared.

When Zhao Gao presented the bamboo slips.

Ying Zheng naturally took it and opened it immediately.

When he saw the contents inside, Ying Zheng's face turned ashen.

"Asshole!"

With a cold shout, Ying Zheng took the bamboo slips in his hand and threw them at Bai Wu in the hall.

It hit Bai Wu hard.

But Bai Wu didn't dare to move at all.

"Your Majesty, calm down."

Bai Wu said hurriedly.

"You, want to impeach Zhao Qing?" Ying Zheng stared at Bai Wu and said coldly.

"Minister...Minister..."

Seeing Ying Zheng so angry, Bai Wu was already panicked.

"Look at what is written on this bamboo slip." Ying Zheng said coldly.

Bai Wu didn't dare to say anything more and immediately picked up the bamboo slips. When he saw the contents on it, Bai Wu's face turned pale.

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

"I don't know anything about this."

"The impeachment report I received from Linguan County was about General Zhao's abuse of private punishment. I didn't know they dared to do such a thing."

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I know I was wrong..."

Bai Wu bowed and worshiped, his face turned extremely frightened.

"Sure enough, he came prepared."

"This Zhao Feng is really hard to deal with." Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang looked at each other and had the same idea.

Ying Zheng's face turned pale: "Since I took power, the most taboo thing is the embezzlement of annual salaries. I never thought that under my urging, there would be people who dared to embezzle annual salaries."

"There are nearly a thousand elite soldiers and logistics troops in Linguan County. One thousand people's annual salaries were embezzled, and a general under Zhao Qing's command was embezzled all of his annual salaries."

"Such evil deeds, such disregard for national laws."

"You, actually filed a complaint first and impeached Zhao Qing?"

This was said.

Bai Wu was trembling all over, his face was pale: "Your Majesty, calm down, I didn't know anything about it, I know I was wrong."

"I said it before."

"Anyone who dares to touch the annual salary, embezzle the lives of my Qin soldiers, I will never let go."

"Not to mention beheading a county magistrate, put the whole family of the embezzler in prison, even exterminating the family is not too much."

"I said at the beginning that once the embezzlement of annual salary is discovered, there is no need to report to me, just deal with it directly."

"How can this be called private punishment?" Ying Zheng shouted coldly.

"I know I was wrong." Bai Wu replied in a trembling voice.

"Your Majesty."

"It was not unintentional that I took action in Linguan County. One of my generals was bullied by the Bai family in Linguan County when he was in the countryside. His sister was raped by the Bai family. He reported it to the authorities but the Bai family was protected. After that, they were repeatedly targeted."

"The matter of the annual salary was also reported by the county lieutenant of Linguan County."

"Now I have beheaded the county magistrate and imprisoned his entire family in Linguan County."

"The entire family of the Bai family in Linguan County who raped, I punished them with castration according to Qin law and put them in prison."

"All those suspected of corruption in annual salary have been imprisoned and are awaiting punishment." Zhao Feng stood up and said loudly.

"Since they are seeking death, I will help them."

"Tingwei."

Ying Zheng shouted with a cold face.

"I am here." Li Si stood up immediately.

"If you embezzle the annual salary, the whole family will be executed."

"You go and do it yourself, and let the world know that if anyone dares to embezzle the annual salary, the family will be exterminated." Ying Zheng said coldly.

"I accept the edict." Li Si immediately accepted the edict.

"As for you..."

Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Bai Wu again: "You impeached and falsely accused the loyal and good, and you should be severely punished."

"Today, you will be stripped of your position as a senior official! Demote your official rank by one level and fine your annual salary for one year."

The voice fell.

Bai Wu's face turned pale.

And Zhao Feng glanced at Bai Wu with his peripheral vision: "You have to make trouble for no reason. The punishment would not be so severe. You have to jump out in the court and bring trouble upon yourself."

"Lord Bai, right?"

"I remember that all the people in the Bai family were imprisoned by me. Who reported the impeachment to you?"

"Is there a fish that slipped through the net outside?" Zhao Feng turned his head and looked at Bai Wu with an aggressive tone.

This is his personality.

Revenge is the most grievance.

This is Zhao Feng.

Revenge is never delayed.

Bai Wu looked at Zhao Feng with hatred in his eyes, but under the gaze of Ying Zheng, he did not dare to show it.

"It is true that a few people escaped. I will tell the court where they are hiding." Bai Wu said with a loss of strength.

"In order to punish corrupt criminals, Lord Bai killed his relatives for the sake of justice. It is noble." Zhao Feng smiled and praised Bai Wu.

"This Zhao Feng looks young, but his mind is so meticulous and so cruel."

"This boy should not be underestimated."

"Although he has never been to the court, he is definitely not a warrior who only knows how to command troops as rumored."

"This boy is using Bai Wu's actions to intimidate the court."

...

After Bai Wu's incident, and looking at Zhao Feng's handling methods, everyone in the court has a new understanding of Zhao Feng.

"This kid never delays revenge."

"He has a strong character."

Seeing Zhao Feng like this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile in his heart.

How could he not see that Zhao Feng was deliberately trying to disgust Bai Wu?

This kind of revenge is indeed real.

"Linguan County."

"It is adjacent to Hangu Pass."

"Our Great Qin is a heavily guarded place, but there are still people in such a place who dare to covet Mo's annual salary."

"I really can't imagine how corrupt there are in other cities in the Great Qin territory, and how many corrupt officials there are who are not afraid of death."

"From today onwards, Tingwei and the Young Master will jointly supervise and send people to patrol, focusing on investigating and punishing corruption. Once discovered, their clan will be exterminated directly without reporting it, as a deterrent."

"Disregarding the law, officials protect each other, and oppressing the people, all will be severely punished."

"If a minister in the court has an affair, we will not tolerate it." Ying Zheng looked down at the court and shouted coldly.

The annual salary is a fundamental matter for millions of warriors, and it is also the foundation of the Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng will never let those corrupt officials shake the country's foundation.

This time he was really moved and angry.

"I accept the edict."

Wei Liao and Li Si immediately took the order.

And at this moment.

Many people in the court were already panicking.

Since ancient times.

If the water is clear, there will be no fish.

No matter what kind of country it is, corrupt officials will always exist.

Because human nature is like this, it is impossible for everyone to be a saint.

This time the King of Qin was furious and ordered an investigation, which would inevitably uncover some corrupt officials who had violated the law and took advantage of their annual salary.

"alright."

"This matter will be settled for now."

Ying Zheng waved his hand, not wanting to let this afternoon impeachment ruin the atmosphere.

Then Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng with soft eyes.

"Zhao Qing."

"He has made many military exploits for the Qin Dynasty."

"Destroy Wu'an, defeat Handan, kill Lian Po, kill Pang Nuan, and capture the King of Zhao."

"Thank you very much."

"Deserves a heavy reward."

Ying Zheng said with authority.

A wave of his hand.

Wang Zhao picked up the edict that had been prepared on the table.

Zhao Gao on the side immediately stepped forward to pick up the king's edict and read loudly: "The edict of the King of Qin!"

"Zhao Feng, the fourth main camp commander in Lantian, has made great contributions in destroying Zhao. He is a model for our Qin generals. He guarded Weicheng and defeated Wei Wuji to avoid the loss of our Qin territory! Attack the Zhao Kingdom, kill Lian Po, kill Pang Nuan, and capture the King of Zhao. , His military exploits are outstanding and his contribution is indispensable!”

"Given the merits of our Great Qin army, we should be given heavy titles and rewards."

"Today, Jin and Zhao have been granted the title of Captain of the Guard, called General, and given a title of promotion to the second level."

"I will give you a palace in Xianyang City, a hundred servants, a thousand gold, a hundred jade, a thousand pieces of fine cloth, a fine war horse, and a general's robe."

"When you are promoted to general, you should announce it to the world."

…

Zhao Gao's voice resounded in the court.

As this edict came down.

It also announced that Da Qin once again had a general. He was also the youngest general in Da Qin and the youngest holder of the fourteenth-level title in Da Qin.

"The structure of the Great Qin Court has changed."

"The fourth general is in charge of a large battalion."

"And he will have more potential than the other three generals."

"In the future, this Zhao Feng may be able to reach the position of Bai Qi in the past!"

Although the Jin Dynasty had already raised the issue of conferring Zhao Feng the title of Captain of the Guards on that day, the conferment would only be granted upon Zhao Feng's return.

But it really comes after this day.

It was a bit shocking to hear with my own ears that Zhao Fengjin was promoted to general.

Zhao Feng, who was not yet twenty years old in the Qin Dynasty, became the youngest general in the world!

"My lord, thank you for your kindness."

Zhao Feng did not hesitate too much, and with a sense of joy in his heart, he bowed to Ying Zheng who was in a high position.

Although I had guessed a bit beforehand, now it has really fallen on me.

Great Qin’s general!

There is one like him!

After joining the army for four years, he rose from a small soldier with meritorious service to become one of the few people with the greatest power in the Qin Dynasty, a well-deserved dignitary.

The captain who protects the army is called the general.

It has the authority to form a thousand personal guards, who are private soldiers.

Look at the entire Da Qin.

Only three generals, Wang Jian, had a thousand personal guards.

Except them.

Even if it is the prime minister who is the head of civil servants.

Even the eldest son Fusu, who is now in charge of political affairs in the court, has never been owned by them.

This is the authority given by the royal power to the general who is commanding the army to protect his safety.

In this era of emphasis on military force, a general who leads the army is more important than a civil servant, at least now that the Qin Dynasty has begun to unify.

"Your Majesty."

"Don't you congratulate Zhao Qing?"

Ying Zheng smiled slightly and said.

When the King of Qin opened his mouth, who would dare to disobey him?

At this moment, whether it was a false sentiment or a pretense, all the civil and military officials in the court congratulated Zhao Feng: "Congratulations to General Zhao Feng."

certainly.

The most sincere one belongs to Wang Jian.

"My son-in-law is a general like me."

"Glorious lintel."

"Yan'er really has a good eye." Wang Jian was extremely excited.

"Thank you, sir." Zhao Feng smiled and returned the greeting with clasped fists.

"General, please accept the edict."

Zhao Gao walked to Zhao Feng's side and handed the Wang Zhao to Zhao Feng very humbly.

Zhao Feng accepted Wang Zhao and nodded slightly.

Although Zhao Feng had some resistance to this historical traitor, he was just a humble eunuch now.

Zhao Feng didn't need to show any shame.

As a close servant of King Qin, there is no one who knows King Qin best, so there is no need to offend him.

"Wang Qing."

Ying Zheng spoke again at this moment.

"I'm here." Wang Jian stood up immediately.

"When Wang Qing went to war, I made a promise to you."

"On the day when I return from success, I will marry my daughter to Zhao Qing."

"Now it's time to cash in." Ying Zheng said with a smile.

A wave of his hand.

Zhao Gao immediately received another royal edict.

"Edict of the King of Qin."

"Wang Yan, the wife of General Wang Jian, is a virtuous and virtuous woman. She is in love with Zhao Feng, the general of the Qin Dynasty, and they are in love with each other."

"Today, I give the daughter of the Wang family the title of Zhao Feng as my wife."

"Choose a date to get married." Zhao Gao announced loudly.

"On behalf of my little daughter, I would like to thank the king for your kindness." Wang Jian bowed with a smile on his face.

today.

Wang Jian can be said to be very proud of himself.

The prospective son-in-law was named the captain of the army.

Now the daughter has been granted marriage again.

Double happiness.

No, maybe it's the third blessing.

"One more thing."

"The date between Yueyang and Wang Ben has also been decided."

"Right in the middle of this month."

"General, you have to be very prepared." Ying Zheng said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

"Everything in the Wang family is due to the king's great kindness, and all the ministers will die to repay it." Wang Jian said with great excitement.

Look at the entire court.

Nowadays, there is no glory of his royal family.

Even without Zhao Feng's appearance.

Originally, the Wang family was also targeted by Wang Wan and others, with the intention of using the power of the royal power to get engaged to the Wang family's daughter, so that Fusu could gain the support of the Wang family.

If Wang Jian agrees.

That is the true royal relative.

But Wang Jian would naturally not agree. Even if Zhao Feng had not appeared, he might not have agreed, because he knew deeply the horror of royal power and the horror of party struggle.

Once he makes the wrong step, the Wang family will be in danger.

Now is the best outcome for him.

He is the general, and his son-in-law is the general.

As long as the Wang family doesn't do anything treasonous, the Wang family will be free from worries for at least two generations.

"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."

"Master Fusu's marriage will take place two days before General Wang Ben."

"My clan still needs to be renovated."

A minister in official robes stood up. He was the current head of the clan, Ying Xi.

In terms of seniority, he is still Ying Zheng's uncle.

"Leave this matter to Zong Zheng." Ying Zheng said slowly.

Ying Xi immediately accepted the order: "I accept the imperial edict."

"But I have a question."

Ying Xi turned around and said again.

"Say." Ying Zheng looked at Ying Xi with a cold expression.

Obviously.

He didn't have much favorable impression of this uncle, and his attitude was very cold.

"What specifications should be used for the eldest son's wedding banquet?" Ying Xi asked respectfully, with a bit of expectation in his eyes.

Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang were overjoyed and looked at Ying Zheng.

As a royal prince, there are naturally many specifications for the wedding banquet.

If it is to be done according to the standards of a prince, then it must be done according to the standards of a prince. Obviously, Ying Xi wanted to use this to test Ying Zheng's intentions.

Ying Zheng took a look and seemed to have an insight, but he didn't say anything more and said casually: "Of course it will be handled according to the specifications of the master."

Hear this!

Ying Xi and Wang Wan all felt disappointed in their hearts.

"I understand." Ying Xi replied respectfully.

"Wedding banquet."

"Daughter of Li Si."

Fusu felt extremely helpless at this moment, and his heart was filled with rejection.

If he could, he wouldn't want to kill Li Si's daughter at all.

But he pushed again and again.

Because the war has been delayed for so long, the day has finally come.

"Tingwei."

"You have to worry about getting married this time." Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and smiled.

"I understand." Even though Li Si was reluctant, he could only nod in agreement.

"alright."

"Do you still have any memorials?" Ying Zheng asked, looking down at the court.

Today was not originally a meeting at court. It was because Zhao Feng returned today, so Ying Zhengcai issued an edict to gather hundreds of officials to welcome Zhao Feng's return.

"I have no basis to start this memorial." The ministers shouted one after another.

"Then let's disperse."

"Zhao Feng stays and goes to Zhangtai Palace with Gu." Ying Zheng laughed, then stood up and walked towards the back hall.

"I respectfully send you off to your Majesty." All the ministers paid their respects one after another.

Wait until Ying Zheng's figure leaves.

The ministers dispersed in all directions.

"When you arrive at Zhangtai Palace, you can't talk nonsense."

"You are now deeply favored by the king."

"Remember not to mess around."

"The king is the king, and the minister is the minister." Wang Jian walked to Zhao Feng and warned him very seriously.

"Are you always so worried about me?"

Zhao Feng said helplessly.

"no way."

"I still remember what you said back then." Wang Jian said with a bit of condescension.

Mention the original words.

Zhao Feng immediately smiled awkwardly.

Stealing a bride?

Stealing a bride in Xianyang?

These are all what he said.

It was clear that he was threatening Wang Jian.

If he really wants to marry Wang Yan to Fusu, then Zhao Feng will make a big fuss, and that time Zhao Feng also showed a little bit of his strength, which can be regarded as successful in frightening Wang Jian.

"Come on, stop talking."

"Now Yan'er is going to be my wife. What happened back then didn't happen."

"So you should take it easy." Zhao Feng said with a smile.

"Okay, after you meet the king, return home as soon as possible."

"You haven't met your son and daughter yet."

"Hahaha."

"Very well-behaved, I like it very much." Wang Jian said with a smile.

Naturally, Wang Jian had met his pair of grandchildren first.

"When you say that, I don't even want to go to Zhangtai Palace." Zhao Feng also had a look of eagerness on his face.

"The king's order cannot be disobeyed."

"You'd better go quickly."

"I'll go back to accompany my grandson." Wang Jian smiled triumphantly, turned around and walked out of the palace.

Looking at Wang Jian's back, Zhao Feng was also a little angry: "This father-in-law is obviously angry with me because I threatened him at the beginning."

Zhao Feng knew that Wang Jian was deliberately angry with him.

But he just smiled.

At this time!

"General, congratulations."

Wei Liao came over and smiled at Zhao Feng.

"I guess this is the disciple of Guigu, Lord Wei Liao." Zhao Feng smiled and replied immediately.

"I didn't expect the general to know me?" Wei Liao was slightly surprised.

"How could Zhao Feng not know the title of Shaofu." Zhao Feng smiled.

"General, congratulations."

Li Si came over at this time.

"The court judge is polite."

Seeing Li Si, Zhao Feng naturally smiled and returned the greeting.

"I have heard of General Zhao Feng for a long time. Today I see that his reputation is well-deserved."

"He is really a hero of our Great Qin. Our Great Qin has a general, which is God's blessing."

"Yes."

"Among the young generation of our Great Qin, General Zhao Feng is the best."

At this time!

Two more voices came.

It was Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang who walked slowly.

"Hello, two prime ministers."

Don't hit a smiling person. Zhao Feng was naturally unhappy with the two people, but he still politely returned the greeting at this moment.

In addition to them.

One minister after another came to Zhao Feng to congratulate him.

This may be what it means to be in power.

When you are good, when you have power, there are good people around you.

But once you lose power, everything around you will change.

After these false greetings.

Zhao Feng was completely surrounded by these ministers, all of whom invited Zhao Feng to the mansion for a chat, with a strong intention to win him over.

Until Zhao Gao came.

"My Lords."

"The King summoned General Zhao Feng. If you have anything to say, please come back another day." Zhao Gao bowed and said hoarsely.

"I almost forgot."

"The King summoned the General."

"General, please go to the Zhangtai Palace to see the King first."

"I won't delay the General."

"Goodbye."

...

After seeing Zhao Gao, many ministers also clasped their fists and left.

"General, please follow me."

After everyone dispersed, Zhao Gao bowed and said to Zhao Feng very respectfully.

He didn't say much and led the way directly.

"Zhao Gao."

"Who can predict his future?"

Seeing this man who called a deer a horse so close, Zhao Feng felt more and more emotional.

And outside the palace.

"The eldest son."

Looking at Fusu waiting not far from the palace wall, Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang walked slowly.

"Two prime ministers."

"Is it really inevitable now?" Fusu looked at the two and asked unwillingly.

The two looked at each other and naturally understood what Fusu said.

"Young Master."

"The king's order is hard to disobey."

"It has been delayed for two years now, and it is impossible to delay it any longer."

"The king's will has been determined." Wang Wan sighed.

Hearing this!

Fusu sighed, then waved his hand and left directly in frustration.

For Fusu.

He really didn't want this kind of marriage, and even made him think of disobeying.

"Young Master has really endured to the extreme this time." Wei Zhuang also sighed.

"Nothing."

"Even if Li Si's daughter really married you, it wouldn't change anything."

"What you learned conflicts with Li Si."

"In the final analysis."

"Li Si's law is the law of cruel officials."

"If you really succeed to the throne one day, everything will be overturned." Wang Wan said in a low voice.

Wei Zhuang carefully looked around and said in a low voice: "Be careful with your words!"

"In the final analysis."

"Today's test by Zong Zheng did not get the king's true thoughts after all."

"Does the king really have no idea of ​​making the eldest son the crown prince?"

Seeing Ying Zheng's lukewarm attitude towards Fusu's wedding banquet today, Wei Zhuang doubted himself.

"Among the princes, who can still compete with the eldest son?"

"The king is now in his prime, so naturally he has no idea of ​​making a crown prince. After the world is unified, who else can the king make besides the eldest son?"

"Everyone in the court knows it, and everyone in the world knows it. The eldest son has the best chance."

"Don't worry." Wang Wan comforted confidently.

In his cognition, no one except Fusu could take that position.

This is a unique condition.

Who can compete for Fusu?

Outside Zhangtai Palace!

"Wait a moment, General." Zhao Gao turned around and said respectfully.

Then he slowly walked into the palace.

"Your Majesty."

"General Zhao Feng is here."

Zhao Gao reported respectfully.

"Let someone prepare the hot springs, and I will bathe with the general later." Ying Zheng told Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao was shocked, and then nodded immediately: "I will obey the order."

...
