Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 208 Li Si, tell me what you want to eat in the future

Chapter 208 Li Si, tell me what you want to eat in the future
Li Si never expected that Emperor Shihuang would issue such an order.

He looked at the screen with doubts, and wanted to ask why, but before he could speak, Zhao Gao's voice sounded again: "Prime Minister Li, Your Majesty told you to hurry up."

"This……"

Li Si opened his mouth, and looked at his colleagues around him with a complicated expression, and his face suddenly looked tragic.

He didn't know if the salt was poisonous, but Emperor Shi Huang's order must not be disobeyed...

It's so hard!
Although the Pinyang Palace is no better than the Xianyang Palace, there are not a hundred or dozens of attendants in the Poison Test Palace, so why do you choose to test poison yourself?
Could it be that the first emperor was dissatisfied with himself?
Thinking of this, Li Si's heart skipped a beat, then he swallowed hard, walked to the side of the pot, and put a small piece into his mouth.

After taking a sip, Li Si's eyes widened, and he felt nauseous.

Chen Ping next to him shook his head amusedly, and joked, "Prime Minister Li, how does it taste?"

"I"

Li Si nodded, then shook his head, and waved to the court servant with a painful expression.

Feng Quji looked curious when he saw his appearance.

At first he thought Li Si had been poisoned, but when Li Si nodded, he wondered how the salt tasted.

Seeing the palace attendant bring a bowl of water to Li Si, Feng Quji also broke off a small piece and threw it into his mouth.

Like Li Si's expression, he was also stunned, but he couldn't bear to spit it out.

"I'll try it too!"

"Wait, there's me..."

Seeing that the two big brothers had eaten, the rest of the courtiers also flocked to it, breaking off a piece and throwing it into their mouths.

"This, this is really salt! What a pure taste!"

"My God! There is such delicious salt in the world!"

"Hahaha! God bless Da Qin, God bless Da Qin!"

"I didn't expect this method of making salt to be real! It can really turn poisonous salt into non-toxic salt!"

After tasting the salt, the courtiers danced with excitement.

Some veterans of the empire even cried bitterly and stuffed salt into their mouths, not afraid of becoming "salt mice".

Seeing this, Chen Ping smiled without saying a word.

He had known for a long time that the method of making salt would shock the court, so he seemed calm.

But in the eyes of Feng Quji and others, this scene was full of appreciation.

It is indeed the fortune of the empire to have such a talent.

Just as Feng Quji was about to speak, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Li Si staring at him.

He froze for a moment, then turned his head to look at Li Si.

Li Si glanced at Chen Ping calmly, and then compared Feng Quji with scissors.

Meaning, the second you find him, he's mine.

As an opponent and comrade-in-arms, Feng Quji naturally understood Li Si's gestures, but he didn't care. He just snorted, stepped forward, and said to Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty, Dr. Chen..."

"Your Majesty, Dr. Chen is quick-witted and has outstanding abilities. First he has the ability to break visions, and then he offers the method of making salt. I recommend Dr. Chen to be an official!" Li Si stepped forward and interrupted Feng Quji's advice.

Feng Qu was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, and secretly cursed Li Si: "Shameless!"

This recommendation to become an official is not something that anyone can recommend.

Although the officialdom is intricate and complicated, few people will make mistakes in recommending, because all recommending is recommending their own people.

And once recommended by someone, it is equivalent to being branded by someone, and he will belong to that person in the future.

Seeing such a pillar being taken first by Li Si, Feng Quji was filled with indignation.

But in any case, Chen Ping is a rare talent both in public and in private.

Therefore, Feng Quji still surrendered to Yingzheng: "The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister waits for the second opinion!"

Seeing that the two big bosses recommended Chen Ping, the rest of the ministers also agreed, and at the same time showed a friendly smile to Chen Ping.

Chen Ping smiled and nodded slightly, quietly waiting for Ying Zheng's decision.

However, Ying Zheng behind the screen had a dark face.

At first, he was a little funny seeing the ministers eating salt with their lives, but he didn't expect that what was supposed to come would finally come!
Is this guy Li Si trying to do the right thing to him?
Why is there him every time!
Ying Zheng was very depressed, wishing he could kick the screen in front of him and question Li Si face to face.

Are you fucking blind?

You are the most active in luring wolves into the house!

The point is that this wolf has come in, and it's not easy to get out.

Chen Ping's contribution does not lie in his greatness, but in his kindness.

This method of making salt is a great kindness to Qin.Because salt is not only related to the people, but to everyone.

Today, anyone who stands up against Chen Ping's entry into an official position will probably be drowned in spit when he goes out.

Therefore, it is unstoppable for Chen Ping to become an official.

But the post of Pinyang county magistrate can be regulated.

As long as no one recommends Chen Ping to join Pinyang, then he has room to maneuver.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng calmed down, glared at Li Si through the screen, then took out a brush, wrote two lines and threw it to Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao took over the words reflexively, looked at them, and then read them out: "Your Majesty has an order. Chen Pingjin will present the method of making salt to benefit the Great Qin. It will be kind to the common people and the community. Give Jujushao the best work, a reward of one hundred yi, and food for thousands of households."

Do less work?
How could His Majesty only bestow upon Jue Shao Shangzao?For such a great achievement, not to mention conferring the title of Marquis and worshiping Prime Minister, the elders must also give it to him, right?

Your Majesty, what's the matter?
Why are you getting more and more confused!

As soon as Zhao Gao finished reading his edict, all the officials in the hall couldn't help but look at each other, slandering in their hearts.

Even Li Si, who recommended Chen Ping, was a little confused.

My heart said, what happened to His Majesty?Could it be that the person behind this screen is not His Majesty himself?

"Your Majesty, I have something to do."

Feng Quji frowned and took a step forward.

He also felt that something was wrong with Ying Zheng's will.

Although Li Si's recommendation of Chen Ping made him feel uncomfortable, it did not hinder his appreciation of Chen Ping.

Therefore, he decisively stood up and expressed his attitude.

"Your Majesty, Chen Ping's contribution, I think..."

Before Feng Quji could finish his words, Zhao Gao announced in a shrill voice, "Retire!"

wow——

Hearing the word "retreat", there was an uproar.

The courtiers in the hall looked at me and I looked at you, their faces full of bewilderment.

But Chen Ping was immediately dumbfounded.

He didn't expect it to end so soon.

According to the previous plan, he should be knighted first, and then asked for a job, and he should choose Pinyang according to the trend.

Now, he is only granted a title, and he is not even asked.

This made him go back, how to explain to Zhao Kun?
However, when he was in a daze, Ying Zheng had already exited the hall under the cover of the palace attendant.

When he reacted, the hall was already empty, even the screen was removed.

"This……"

Why is it happening like that?

Chen Ping looked at the seat where Ying Zheng had sat in disbelief, dumbfounded.

At this time, Li Si walked over and patted him on the shoulder, thinking that he was upset about the unfairness of the title, and said, "It's okay, you are still young, you started less, and you are much luckier than others!"

"That's right, the old man thinks the same way, Dr. Chen has a bright future!" Feng Qu quickly stroked his beard and nodded.

"Thank you two prime ministers for your kindness."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping came back to his senses, and cupped his hands at Li Si and Feng Quji with a bitter expression on his face.

What he cares about is not the issue of title at all, but how to explain to Zhao Kun.

Seemingly seeing Chen Ping's frustration, Li Si and Li Si turned around and walked out of the hall without saying a word.

And at this moment, Zhao Gao's figure appeared at the entrance of the main hall again, and said to Li Si and the two of them, "Two prime ministers, Your Majesty wants you to go to the study."

"This……"

The two looked at each other.

Li Si frowned, and asked in a low voice, "What happened to Your Majesty today?"

"It's just an occasional cold, it's not a big problem."

Zhao Gao smiled and gave an official answer.

Feng Quji rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Did Emperor Shihuang feel the wind and cold occasionally?This is clearly insane!

Of course, he thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out of his mouth, so he went straight to the study.

Seeing Feng Qu going away in a hurry, Li Si followed his footsteps without asking any further questions.

Seeing this, the rest of the ministers just sighed secretly and left the hall one after another.

When only Zhao Gao and Chen Ping were left in the hall, Chen Ping tentatively asked: "Order of Zhao Fu, can Ping not offend His Majesty?"

"Chen Shaozao, a certain person is no longer serving as the CRRC government order!" Zhao Gao said with a smile that he didn't answer the question.

"what?"

Chen Ping looked surprised, and hurriedly bowed his hands to Zhao Gao: "Ping doesn't know about this, but he still looks at Haihan."

"It's okay!"

Zhao Gao waved his hands with a smile, and then asked casually: "I heard that you have some connection with Wu Cheng?"

"Yes!"

Chen Ping nodded and said, "I was brought to Pinyang by Wu Tong!"

"Then what is your relationship with Young Master Kun?"

"This……"

Chen Ping froze for a moment, showing hesitation.

Zhao Gao's eyes turned cold, and he said coldly: "What? Could it be that Gao is not worthy to ask you the details?"

"No no no..."

Chen Ping shrank his neck, and quickly waved his hands: "That's not the case, it's because I dare not climb up to Mr. Kun."

"Ok?"

"It is said that Young Master Kun has a weird personality, always does weird things, and never trusts outsiders. I was born as a commoner, so I can't get into his eyes..."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao was overjoyed, and then asked: "Then what is your relationship with Wu Cheng?"

"Although he is not related, I treat him like a teacher." Chen Ping replied seriously.

"it is good!"

Zhao Gao said hello with a smile, and then said in a kind tone: "It's nothing to be born as a commoner, the most important thing is to know how to repay kindness."

"Thank you Zhao Fuling for your teaching."

"Okay, it's okay, go back and wait for the notice!"

Zhao Gao nodded with a smile, didn't care about his address, raised his hand to lead him away.

Chen Ping walked a few steps, and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty really has no objection to me?"

"Ha ha!"

Zhao Gao chuckled, and then said to Chen Ping meaningfully: "Chen Shaozao is a minister of meritorious service, why does His Majesty have any objections to you? Go back and wait at ease, don't think too much about it!"

Hearing this, Chen Ping felt uneasy, but he didn't continue to ask, and went straight out of the palace gate.

.........

the other side.

Ying Zheng study.

Feng Quji and Li Si bowed and stood, while Yingzheng had his hands behind his back, thoughtful.

After a while, Ying Zheng turned his head to look at Li Si, and sighed leisurely: "Li Aiqing, you are getting old."

When Li Si heard Ying Zheng's words, his heart skipped a beat, and he said cautiously: "When Your Majesty unified the six kingdoms, the minister's son was just born, but now this child has already entered an official position and married."

"Why does this sound like a reminder to me!"

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Why, that kid Li You wants to be promoted?"

"I dare not!"

Li Si was taken aback, and quickly said: "The dog is young and needs more training."

"Ah."

Ying Zheng nodded, and pondered: "You are young, and you really need to hone your skills."

"That" said, he changed the subject, and continued: "Where do you think Chen Ping should be arranged when he becomes an official?"

"This"

Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other, and they both saw the words "you speak first" in each other's eyes.

Because they all felt that there was something in Ying Zheng's words, and no one wanted to be the first bird.

But how could Ying Zheng keep them silent? He just pulled his face down and said in a deep voice, "Are you all dumb? Talk!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's displeasure, Li Si rolled his eyes and said hastily, "Your Majesty, Feng Youxiang just talked to Chen Ping about Chen Ping, why don't you let him talk first?"

I rub!

You old man betrayed me!
Feng Quji's eyes widened and he glared at Li Si.

Although he did talk about Chen Ping with Li Si on the way here, he didn't mention the matter of becoming an official at all.

Li Si is a bastard, shameless!

Feng Quji scolded Li Si secretly in his heart, but he said firmly: "Your Majesty, I feel that Chen Ping can be employed in the Shaofu, collect mountain and sea land taxes for Your Majesty, and at the same time preside over the salt production!"

What he considered was that Shaofu was very inclusive and suitable for Chen Ping's development.

After all, Chen Ping's ability is also unique, and he can show his strengths by working in the Shaofu.

But Ying Zheng obviously would not agree.

What a joke!
Shaofu is his small treasury, the back garden.

How is it possible to let a mouse in?

If Chen Ping enters the Shaofu, that kid will wake up laughing in his dreams. In the future, plans such as guarding himself and stealing, stealing and changing posts will emerge endlessly.

What's the difference between that and abetting?
Ying Zheng glanced at Feng Quji, neither agreed nor denied, and turned to Li Si directly: "Where's Li Aiqing? Do you have any suggestions?"

"minister"

Li Si was stunned for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: "I think what Feng Youxiang said is very true, Chen Ping has mastered the method of making salt, and he will definitely make salt for the Great Qin in the future, and making salt is a major national event, and must be arranged by the Shaofu. "

"In this way, Chen Ping's work in the Shaofu will complement each other!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he said in a cold tone, "Is this why you highly recommend Chen Ping?"

"Ok?"

"Speaking of which, you and Chen Ping are both from Chu. I know that you may have some resentment after Chu was destroyed."

"I dare not, Your Majesty!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Li Si's soul was almost frightened, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop: "I have one heart for Qin, and I have never had two hearts."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes: "Really?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am loyal to Da Qin, and I can learn from the sun and the moon to Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng's tone softened a little, and he frowned again and asked; "Then Chen Ping?"

"Your Majesty's lesson!"

Li Si said sternly: "The minister recommended Chen Ping because of his talent, there is absolutely no selfishness in it!"

"Ha ha!"

Ying Zheng chuckled, raised his hand to support Li Si: "What is Ai Qing doing, it's cold on the ground, don't freeze!"

Feng Quji rolled his eyes when he heard the words, but Li Si smiled and bowed his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Li Aiqing, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, is my humerus minister. I have always known it."

Ying Zheng nodded, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Then Li Aiqing thinks, besides serving in the Shaofu, is there any other place suitable for Chen Ping to join?"

Li Si wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and carefully glanced at Ying Zheng.

He couldn't figure out Ying Zheng's train of thought at all.

He hadn't experienced the feeling just now for many years.

Almost scared him to death!

What is His Majesty planning?

Could it be that there is something wrong with Chen Ping?

Or, does His Majesty not want Chen Ping to be involved in the court?
Thinking of this, Li Si had an idea in his mind.

Since His Majesty does not want Chen Ping to set foot in the Shaofu, he can arrange an official position at random and observe and observe.

At present, the official positions in Xianyang have been arranged properly, leaving only the surrounding official positions.

correct!

Isn't the county magistrate of Pinyang vacant?Your Majesty shouldn't care about the post of county magistrate, right?

With this in mind, Li Sichao bowed his hands to Yingzheng and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that Chen Ping's talent is enough to be the magistrate of Pinyang County!"

Ying Zheng: "."

I'm hitting your lungs!

You are really the servant of my humerus!

This knife stabbed me off guard!

When Ying Zheng heard Li Si's words, he almost fainted from anger, but Feng Quji stepped forward to support him: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"fine."

Ying Zheng settled down, waved his hands weakly, then looked up at Li Si, stared blankly for a while, and then asked suddenly: "Li Aiqing, do you like to eat recently?"

"Ok?"

Li Si tilted his head, his face was full of doubts, and he thought to himself, isn't it discussing Chen Ping's entry into an official?Why are you talking about food all of a sudden?

However, when Emperor Shihuang asked a question, he didn't dare not answer, so he thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't have anything I like to eat recently."

"It's okay!"

Ying Zheng waved his hands, stood up straight again, and said to Li Si with a serious face: "From now on, you can eat more of what you want. If you don't have enough, please tell me!"

"???"

Li Si was full of question marks.

Ying Zheng ignored him, and turned to Feng Quji and said, "Feng Aiqing, I have ordered Chen Ping to be the magistrate of Pinyang County temporarily, and we will make other arrangements when there is a suitable candidate!"
