"How do you think we should deal with this?"
These seemingly calm words caused quite a commotion among the civil and military officials. For a moment, they fell into a short silence.
After all, it involved the third son of the late king, the king's third uncle, the Marquis of Shu, Ying Hui, a legitimate son of the royal family.
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Shu seems to be filial, but in fact, he is not small.”
"Thus, this old minister believes that the Marquis of Shu is unfilial to the previous king. The Marquis of Shu is not worthy of having a fief!”
Wang He had expressed his loyalty to the king before, and it was also related to the matter of the late king. Without any hesitation, he was the first to break the silence in the hall.
"Ben 'er followed the king in his early years and was also a member of the Eastern Palace. Since Old General Wang has taken the initiative, I can't fall behind.”
Seeing this, Wang Jian was greatly shocked, but he weighed the pros and cons and made a wise decision with a cautious attitude.
"The Marquis of Shu is not worthy of a fief. Old General Wang has the right to say it, and he really dares to say it out loud.”
Old General Wang was so fierce right from the start, causing a huge uproar among the civil and military officials. He was really not afraid of anything.
"Although Old General Wang is usually straightforward, he won't be the first to stand up. Could it be that he has already expressed his loyalty to the king?”
This was a muddy water that was not pleasing at all. Cai Ze's gaze went back and forth between Old General Wang, Wang He, and King.
In the imperial court, there was no such thing as appearing for no reason. It was either for benefits or loyalty.
"If it's handled well, then it'll be a great harm to the royal family. If it's not handled well, the king will inevitably have a reputation for murdering his own uncle.”
"As for Old General Wang, his condition will only be more serious. He doesn't usually seem like an impulsive person.”
Even with his rich experience in the Imperial Court, Xiong Gu couldn't think of a reasonable explanation in such a short time.
"What Old General Wang said just now was true. In the name of filial piety, he did not even want to come to Xianyang to take a look.”
Since he had decided to throw himself at the King, Wang Jian was a clean and efficient person. He immediately criticized the Marquis of Shu without any politeness.
"The younger generation, Wang Jian, and his family have also decided to pledge allegiance to Wang Shang. It is getting more and more lively to deal with the Marquis of Shu.”
Seeing that it was the support of Wang Jian, who also had the surname Wang, Wang He, who was over 50 years old, was more motivated to deal with the Marquis of Shu.
This time, there would not be a scene of him fighting alone and facing all the civil and military officials.
"If this Wang Jian stepped forward, it would be easier to understand than Old General Wang.”
Even though it was the second official to step forward, but seeing that it was Wang Jian himself, Feng Quji did not find it strange.
As everyone knew, Wang Ben had pledged his loyalty to the king, so it was not surprising that his family would join him.
"I don't believe that there will be a minister coming out. This matter won't be easy to resolve.”
The man was the father of Wang Ben, the new General of the Left. Ying Zihua could barely accept the fact that he was the father of Wang Ben, and his face looked much better.
"It feels strange. There seems to be something wrong.”
For some reason, Wang Wan had an illusion that there might be more officials standing up.
"Your Majesty, I think the two generals are right. The Marquis of Shu is unfilial and filial, so he should revoke his fief to warn others.”
Immediately after, Meng Ao followed closely behind as the third official to support the Marquis of Shu.
Meng Wu, the descendant of the king, was in the king's direct army, which was the palace guards. It was only a matter of time before he pledged loyalty to the king. It was better to take the opportunity to express his attitude now.
Besides, King had his own tricks up his sleeve, so there was no need to worry about the weak side of the king.
" What's going on today? Even Meng Ao has come forward. This…"
Gan He, the son of Gan Mao who had once held the position of Prime Minister, and the father of Prime Minister Gan Luo who was twelve years old in the future, couldn't help but be stunned.
"It can't be, right? The three ministers have all sided with the king. If that's the case, isn't this method too brilliant?”
Lou Huan, who came from the School of Political Strategy and whose ancestral home was Zhao, looked at the throne with a different expression.
"This!"
The civil and military officials in the hall were so shocked that they were speechless.
Three ministers had come out to support the Marquis of Shu, and they were all generals. Saying that it was just a coincidence was just to comfort himself.
"The three of you are not afraid of your status as the Marquis of Shu because you want the stability of Great Qin.”
The appearance of three officials represented their loyalty to him. They were also the beginning of the original team. Ying Rui glanced at the officials below and slowly spoke.
"For Your Majesty and Great Qin, we will do our best to clear all possible obstacles!”
Wang Jian, Meng Ao, and Wang He's spirits were roused as they replied in unison. This was equivalent to obtaining the King's affirmation.
"What do you think?"
In his line of sight were all the civil and military officials with different thoughts. Ying Rui turned around and asked, his tone clearly suppressing.
"Your Majesty, I agree."
Old General Bai and Old General Wang were old partners. As a veteran aristocrat, Sima Jin had no reason not to stand up and support him.
"I also agree!"
Four generals stepped forward. Wang Wan, who couldn't stand the Marquis of Shu playing with the meaning of the word filial, couldn't stand it anymore and joined the ranks of those who supported the proposal.
"We agree!"
More and more ministers agreed, especially the important generals in the army. Cai Ze, Xiong Gu, and the other civil and military officials looked at each other and could only step forward helplessly.
"Since all of you have no objections, then I have decided…"
"The Marquis of Shu can be considered an uncle in terms of seniority. I will give him a chance to come from Shu to Xianyang to mourn the late king.”
He said that he was giving him a chance, but in reality, he wanted to get rid of the ambitious Ying Hui once and for all.
Revoking the fief in Shu, stripping the identity of the royal family's children, and cutting off their own titles were far from enough because they had touched the bottom line.
If he disobeyed the order and didn't come to Xianyang, he would be extremely unfilial and would lose the legitimacy of a well-known army. The righteous side would be on his side.
On the other hand, there would be a lot of crimes waiting for Third Uncle to take away his fief without wasting a single soldier, preventing Great Qin from having unnecessary internal conflicts.
"Giving the Marquis of Shu a chance is just a nice thing to say. In fact, I want to occupy the orthodox righteousness.”
It was fine to listen to those words. Whoever took them seriously was a fool. Only then did the civil and military officials realize that the king's methods could not be easily fooled.
Everything had to be done with a reason. The Marquis of Shu was simply courting death by supporting his troops without any reason.
"The Marquis of Shu can come to Xianyang even if he wants to or not.”
Wang He, Meng Ao, and Wang Jian, who had just expressed their loyalty to the Emperor, couldn't help but sigh.
When they arrived at Xianyang, what would happen to the Marquis of Shu would depend on how the King wanted to deal with it.
"Your Majesty is wise and righteous, and it is the great fortune of Great Qin. I believe that the Marquis of Shu will be grateful.”
Immediately, Cai Ze, Wang He, and the other civil and military officials shouted together with their own thoughts.
