As the saying goes, don't doubt the person you use.
If he wanted to gain the loyalty of others, how could he not put in some capital?
"Your Majesty, according to the rules, a minor official has a position. Even if he joins the army, he can only be a hundred lords at most.”
Cao Can was shocked and hurriedly cupped his hands.
"I am the rule of Great Qin. The ruler is not joking, so how can I change it?”
Ying Zheng glared at Cao Can and said in an overbearing tone, leaving no room for rebuttal.
"Your Majesty…"
Cao Can was about to step forward and speak when Xiao He quickly pulled him back. He glared at Cao Can and said,"Hurry up and thank His Majesty for his kindness!"
This fool usually looked quite smart. What was wrong with him today?
How could His Majesty's words be doubted?
What bullsh * t rules?
His Majesty was Great Qin's greatest rule, and everything in the world was set up to serve his Majesty.
Wouldn't he be making himself uncomfortable by arguing with His Majesty?
Xiao He knew that Cao Can was only doing this out of good intentions. He was afraid that the Emperor would be questioned by the officials.
However, it was obvious that Cao Can did not understand the First Emperor. Who was tired of living? Dare to challenge His Majesty's authority?
Just like how he had become the county governor of Kuaiji, who would dare to say anything?
Even Minister Li, who had the most power in the country, could only retreat obediently under the gaze of the Emperor.
The emperor's order, how can let others peck?
"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness. In order to repay Your Majesty's kindness, Cao Can is willing to shed his last drop of blood for the empire.”
Cao Can was greatly moved. He never dreamed that the Emperor would support him so much.
If he could really become famous in the world and establish immortal merits, then everyone would be happy.
However, once he lost his troops and suffered heavy losses, even if the entire court and the world did not dare to criticize His Majesty, it would still affect His Majesty's reputation.
"Come back alive and triumphantly. When the war in the southern border is over, I hope to hold a celebratory banquet for you in Xianyang Palace.”
Ying Zheng's voice was not loud, but it was filled with endless magic.
Cao Can's face was filled with excitement and hope.
Who didn't want to?
Once a marquis was conferred, even if it wasn't hereditary, it would still provide for several generations of people to live in luxury and wealth.
However, Cao Can suddenly thought of his mother who was seriously ill at home. His face revealed a worried expression as he said,"Your Majesty, I wonder if you can give us some time to set off?”
Ying Zheng sized up Cao Can. His pair of deep black eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world.
Under Ying Zheng's gaze, Cao Can's heart was filled with unease.
He knew that he had no room to bargain, but he was in a dilemma. He did not want his son to be unable to fulfill his filial duties in front of his mother's grave after her death.
"Zhen has already sent an imperial physician to your home to treat your mother. Your mother has been tired for many years and has accumulated many hidden illnesses.”
"As long as you rest peacefully and take more tonics, there shouldn't be much of a problem when you return triumphantly.”
"Zhen has already rewarded you with a mansion in Xianyang, ten slaves, fifty bolts of brocade, and a hundred yi of gold.”
"Zhen will arrange for someone to send your family safely to Xianyang so that you don't have to worry about anything. You only need to be loyal to the country.”
Ying Zheng smiled and looked at Cao Can.
Cao Can was completely dumbfounded. Could it be that His Majesty could predict the future?
Why couldn't anything escape His Majesty's eyes?
"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness. I will fight bravely to kill the enemy and make contributions to the country.”
Cao Can really did not know how to thank His Majesty for his great kindness, so he could only bow deeply to Ying Zheng.
Xiao He glanced at the Emperor thoughtfully. It seemed that his guess was right.
His Majesty had indeed come prepared. It seemed that it was not a coincidence that His Majesty appreciated him.
Who recommended him? Cao Can? Who would be next?
Or does His Majesty have his own intelligence network?
His Majesty was searching for talents in the world?
But thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely. He had always been low-key.
If it was really the intelligence network that His Majesty had obtained himself, then this intelligence organization was really chilling to think about.
"Xiao He, are there any more talents recommended to me?”
Looking at Xiao He, who was deep in thought, Ying Zheng called out in an indifferent tone.
Xiao He was pulled back from his thoughts and began to ponder.
Thinking of Liu Ji's instructions, Xiao He sighed deeply.
It wasn't that he wasn't loyal, but that he really didn't know how to recommend Liu Ji.
He said he was talented?
Wouldn't that be lying through his teeth?
Other than eating, drinking, and having fun, what else did Liu Ji have that he did not know?
The only advantage was that Liu Ji was a very loyal person. Moreover, the more time they spent together, the more they felt that Liu Ji was very convincing and infectious.
But this was considered talent?
In layman's terms, this Liu Ji should be a person with charisma.
Unfortunately, his background was too low and there was no stage for him to show off.
Could it be that he recommended him and let His Majesty abdicate to him?
What kind of joke was this?
This dangerous thought flashed through Xiao He's mind.
Perhaps Liu Ji really had the charisma of a leader, but compared to His Majesty, he was like a firefly's light. How could he compete with the bright moon?
"Your Majesty, there's nothing else."
After thinking about it, Xiao He finally sighed in his heart. He could only let Liu Ji down.
After all, he didn't know how to recommend Liu Ji's talent. Perhaps this would cause a gap between Liu Ji and him, but doing so, Xiao He faintly felt that it was the most correct.
Otherwise, with Liu Ji's personality, stepping into the officialdom might not be a good thing for him.
Most of the time, it was not bad to live an ordinary life.
"Other than Cao Can, there was another person who followed you just now, right?”
Ying Zheng was a little surprised. He thought that Xiao He would continue to recommend Liu Ji, but he was wrong.
This made him feel even more interested. The three of them should have a good relationship. Why did Xiao He only recommend Cao Can and not Liu Ji?
Interesting, too interesting!
Cao Can was also stunned. He looked at Xiao He and opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
However, Xiao He gave him a look and he immediately swallowed his doubts.
Based on his understanding of Xiao He, he shouldn't have done this. However, since he did this, there must be a reason he had no choice.
