Chapter 670

At this banquet, Ying Gao also met someone he had never seen before but wanted to see very much.

Yu Ji, who was famous in the history of his previous life, finally unveiled the mysterious veil at this time. Ying Gao knew that Xiang Yu had poured a lot of emotions into this woman in his previous life, and even sighed at the two of them when he was dying. It was enough to show that when Xiang Yu was about to bid farewell to this world, he was not afraid of death, but the only thing he was worried about and the only one he couldn't rest assured was Yu Ji.

Before, Yu Ji had been following Xiang Yu on the territory of the Huns, so Ying Gao naturally had no chance to see her. On the way to Qin, Xiang Yu had always placed Yu Ji in a carriage. Although Ying Gao was a little curious, he couldn't go into the carriage to see what they looked like, right? In that case, Xiang Yu would definitely not be able to do it.

After seeing Yu Ji, Ying Gao finally knew why Xiang Yu had returned to the territory of the Qin Dynasty and lived in the place where he grew up, rather than continuing to be the Shanyu of the Huns.

Yu Ji's face cannot be said to be so beautiful, but she has an inexplicable temperament, as if no matter where she appears, it will become the focus here.

Although Ying Gao has two wives, and both Feng Qing and Tian Yan have their own temperaments, what Yu Ji has is another temperament that is different from them.

In other words, Yu Ji's temperament is different from Feng Qing and Tian Yan, and it can even be said to be another very prominent temperament.

If it were in the era when Ying Gao lived before, women like Yu Ji would always have a very appropriate language, that is, the cold goddess style. Yes, Yu Ji, who appeared at this banquet with Xiang Yu, had such a fairy spirit, which made both the men and women at the banquet look more on her.

If Yu Ji was a little girl at this time, Ying Gao might have been a little moved by her, but she was already Xiang Yu's wife, and the two of them had no idea how long they had been going on, so at this time Ying Gao was just a blessing to Xiang Yu.

No matter what Xiang Yu did before, the generals and officials of the Qin Dynasty knew that Ying Gao's attitude was the weather vane. Since Ying Gao was able to grant Xiang Yu the title of the county magistrate of Kuaiji County, it means that Xiang Yu had completely gained Ying Gao's trust through his years of war with the warriors of the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, Xiang Yu did not bring a guard this time, but took his family, some maids, and Yu Ji's various Yu Ziqi. Obviously, he did not want to develop any great power in the territory of the Qin Dynasty.

Xiang Yu's return from an enemy of the Qin Dynasty to a county magistrate in the south of the Qin Dynasty certainly made the Qin officials enjoy their appetite, but Ying Gao's reward for Han Xin even more stunned.

Han Xin was just a wanderer from Jiangnan before. He said he was a wanderer, but he was actually very respectful to him. Many officials from the Qin Dynasty knew about it. Moreover, when Xiang Yu rebelled against Qin in Jiangdong, Han Xin was still with Xiang Yu for unknown lengths. This was his unlucky history, and it was not the history that could be hidden from everyone.

But under such circumstances, Ying Gao has never had any doubts about him since the day when he attacked Han Xin and came to his command. Han Xin brought Ying Gao to win no matter which battle, and Ying was very beautiful.

From the time when Ying Gao alone brought a small number of troops to wipe out the anti-Qin team, Han Xin has repeatedly used his own strategies to win the Qin team, and then to Ying Gao's war against the Huns, the Mauryan dynasty, the Seleu, the Rome, and the wars of all sizes. In this process, he had become the veritable god of war in the Qin Dynasty.

Now Han Xin's achievements have made the officials and people of the Qin Dynasty think that Ying Gao married his only mother's sister to Han Xin, not because Han Xin had lost his fortune, but because Ying Gao made a very famous decision.

At this banquet, when Ying Gao said all the contributions of Han Xin as the head coach this time, before he could announce his reward for Han Xin, something happened that stunned everyone.

Meng Yi, the first official of the Qin Dynasty, suddenly walked out of the banquet and walked straight to Ying Gao. Then he bowed. Before Ying Gao could speak, he said that he had something to ask Ying Gao and asked Ying Gao if he could agree to him.

After seeing Meng Yi's performance, Ying Gao felt a little moved in his heart. He praised the contributions of the two brothers Meng Yi and Meng Tian to the Qin Dynasty over the years, inside and outside, and said that on this happy day today, no matter what the requirements of the two brothers Meng Yi and Meng Tian have, Ying Gao will definitely satisfy them.

After that, Meng Yi made a request that surprised everyone.

Meng Yi looked at Ying Gao, then looked at his younger brother Meng Tian. Meng Tian was smiling at him. Obviously, Meng Tian already knew what he was going to say, and was very supportive of what he was going to say.

"Your Majesty, I am old. Although I have been above my position as the Grand Marshal of the Great Qin in recent years, I feel more and more unable to do so. Now I see that General Han Xin is enough to take on the great responsibility, so I want to resign from the Grand Marshal and recommend General Han Xin to serve as the General Han Xin. I can also return to my mansion to enjoy my old age. I hope you will agree!"

After saying this, the originally very lively banquet was basically silent. Everyone looked at the friends around them silently, saying that they didn't know what was going on.

But Meng Yi's words have been finished, and Ying Gao has said before that no matter what conditions others have put forward, he will try his best to satisfy them. So this time almost everyone looked at Ying Gao, wanting to see how he would respond to Meng Yi's request.

This incident made Ying Gao a little stunned for a moment. He did have the idea of ​​the position of Taiwei for Han Xin, but that was because Han Xin was still young and he had to wait until Meng Yi could no longer contribute to this position before he could get the chance to get to power.

According to Ying Gao's original prediction, with Meng Yi's body, he should be able to work in this position for three or five years. He did not expect Meng Yi to make such a request at this time.

But when I thought about it, Ying Gao felt relieved. The ages of the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi were almost the same. Originally, the relationship between them was quite good, but over the years, Meng Tian had been guarding Shangjun outside, and then followed Ying Gao to expedition to Seliu. This gave Meng Yi and Meng Tian very few opportunities to meet.

Now Ying Gao has decided to let Meng Tian get rid of his armor and return to the field. Of course, he will not let Meng Tian really go to farm. He will let Meng Tian still serve as a senior official in the Qin Dynasty. However, if he wants to take care of some things, it is basically up to Meng Tian himself to decide.

Obviously Meng Yi now knew the treatment Meng Tian was about to enjoy. Ying Gao knew that Meng Yi had probably seen his brothers return to Xianyang City to enjoy the happiness, but he was still tired in the court, so he raised this matter. Moreover, Meng Yi was undoubtedly very clever in the time. Now that Han Xin has made such a great contribution, it is not an exaggeration to give him any kind of reward. It is actually quite difficult for Ying Gao to reward Han Xin.

But now with Meng Yi's words, isn't it difficult for Ying Gao to do it? He directly gave Han Xin the position of the head of the three Dukes, the Grand Marshal, so naturally he would not need anything else, right?

From another perspective, Ying Gao definitely doesn't believe that Meng Yi would feel reluctant to leave the position of Taiwei.

On the one hand, Meng Yi was not a confidant of Ying Gao or an official promoted by Ying Gao himself like Xiao He. He was basically left by Emperor Qin Shi, but Ying Gao did not abandon him because of this. Instead, he always allowed him to serve as the Grand Marshal of the Three Dukes. This is enough to show that Ying Gao's appointment of officials must be appointed according to his talent and virtue, rather than his closeness to him.

From this aspect alone, Meng Yi should only be grateful to Ying Gao without any negative emotions.

Another point is that the role played by Meng Tian and Ying Gao in the wars was also very great. In this era, Meng Tian and Meng Yi were never allowed to look at them separately at times. Therefore, the two brothers must be loyal to the Qin Dynasty, and the decisions they made must be considered from the perspective of the Qin Dynasty, rather than their own anger.

After Meng Yi made this request, Ying Gao did stay for a while without answering immediately, because appointing and removing the Grand Marshal was undoubtedly a very big deal, and this time it was a banquet, not a very formal occasion.

If someone else raised this matter, no matter whether Ying Gao thought it was correct or not, he would ask the person to retreat first and then wait until he arrived in the court before talking about these things.

But for Meng Yi, he definitely cannot use this method.

"For the sake of the Qin Dynasty, the Taiwei is of course very much admired by me. If this move is done, it is truly worthy of the tradition of loyalty and martyrs of the Meng clan. Since the Taiwei proposed this matter so solemnly, I will naturally agree. However, I still have to think about what kind of identity the Taiwei will act in the court in the future. The Taiwei will return to the banquet first, and I will naturally not disappoint the Taiwei until tomorrow. How about?"

Ying Gao said this, in addition to recognizing that Meng Yi gave the position of Taiwei to Han Xin, it also means that he still valued Meng Yi very much. Even if he did not hold a position of Taiwei, he would still have a very important identity and role in the court of Daqin. Of course, this would be much easier and freer than the important identity of Taiwei.

Ying Gao believed that this would definitely be a result that would satisfy Meng Yi. He had been involved in deciding the Qin Dynasty's government for so many years, but suddenly faded out. No matter who it was, he might not be able to stand it.

As Meng Yi returned to the banquet, even though the banquet ended, the banquet continued. Han Xin's reason should have become the focus of this banquet, while Ying Gao looked at the people at the banquet with a smile. He knew that these people had only truly relaxed now.

Before, they didn't know what was in the other side of the Western Regions, and they thought that after the destruction of the South Vietnam and the Huns, the Qin Dynasty could already be regarded as dominating the world.

But when the gate of the Western Regions opened and Ying Gao told them that the Qin Dynasty was just one of the various forces in the world, many of the Qin people became very panicked.

They were afraid that there would be a very powerful force in a distant place. They originally did not know the existence of the Qin Dynasty, but because the Qin Dynasty opened the Western Regions and walked out, they knew the existence of the Qin Dynasty, so they would definitely attack the Qin Dynasty.

Such an idea has covered many officials and people of the Qin Dynasty for a long time. They do not know what war the Qin army outside the Western Regions are fighting, and they will not know the news of the Qin Dynasty's victory as soon as possible.

Especially for a long time before, Ying Gao was not in Xianyang City, and they didn't know what kind of war it was that they had to let the emperor turn the front and take charge.

They were all afraid that if Ying Gao had made any statement in front of him, if that was true, they now felt that they didn't know how many times stronger than the one ten years ago would be gone.

Until Ying Gao came back, many of them were carrying the generals of the Qin Dynasty and announced that the Qin Dynasty had destroyed all the forces in this world that could pose a threat to him. In other words, the Qin Dynasty dominated the world.

Such words came out of Ying Gao's mouth, which made everyone who was worried breathe a sigh of relief, so they really relaxed at this moment. The Qin Dynasty was invincible. If they could not relax, Ying Gao didn't know how to make the officials under his command truly relax.

Looking at the crowd below, Ying Gao suddenly thought of a sentence he saw in his previous life: Six kings are gone, and all four seas are gone.

Of course, the person who wrote these words did not know that the Qin Dynasty was not considered one in the world at the beginning, but now Ying Gao can finally say this to the people of the world proudly. Under his rule, the Qin Dynasty truly achieved the unification of the four seas.
