Ying Yuan came to the court and announced that Cao Cao would be the right prime minister.
All the civil and military officials were stunned and showed incredible expressions.
Especially Qin Hui, he had no idea where he failed.
Could it be that Cao Cao was defeated because he was fighting on the march?
However, wouldn't it be worse to let someone who understands military affairs serve as prime minister?
Suddenly, he realized.
After playing around with politics for many years, I have become somewhat confused.
Since Cao Cao took the position of Right Prime Minister, the title of Minister of War became vacant.
After much deliberation, Ying Yuan decided to appoint Zhao Kuo to this position.
The reason is simple: we hope that the other party's empty talk can completely paralyze the Ministry of War.
But he just didn't realize that the position of Minister of War, more often than not, requires nothing more than armchair talk.
Ying Yuan still has high hopes for these "treacherous ministers" in front of him and has not completely given up.
That's it.
The news that Cao Cao succeeded to the position of Right Prime Minister spread throughout the Qin Dynasty at lightning speed.
Today's Qin is a big country. Once there is any disturbance, other countries want to know it at the first time.
As the saying goes, a new official starts with three things.
Cao Cao immediately began to carry out drastic reforms to the existing internal affairs.
For example, cracking down on corruption, clearing out bandits in various places, reducing the salaries of various titles, and giving the people a rest.
All in all, these are good strategies that benefit the country and the people.
The reason why Ying Yuan did not refuse him to reform internal affairs and promulgate a series of measures.
This is because dukes, marquises, princes, etc. often came to the palace to complain to him.
There are even some censors.
This made Ying Yuan secretly believe that Cao Cao's actions were pushing the Qin Dynasty into dire straits.
But he never thought that when a country's economy, people's livelihood and military are reaching their peak.
It is inevitable that the interests of some people will be affected.
The twelfth month of the tenth year of Chengping.
Snow is falling all over the sky.
In the Xuanzheng Hall.
Ying Yuan looked at the more than thirty memorials in front of him and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Daji was holding a bowl of hot black chicken soup in front of him and asked curiously:
"Your Majesty, are you thinking of something happy?"
Ying Yuan pointed to the memorials before him and said, "These are the memorials from the princes and ministers impeaching Cao Cao."
Hear the sound.
Daji immediately frowned.
Others impeached the right prime minister appointed by His Majesty himself, but His Majesty is happy?
What is going on?
But think about it again.
Then she understood.
If those people did not impeach Cao Cao, it would be enough to prove that Cao Cao's reform measures were a failure.
If you want people to live a good life, you must touch the interests of certain people.
The more they resist, the more it proves that Cao Cao is working for the people at the bottom of society.
I guess that's why Your Majesty is happy, right?
Daji asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, how should you deal with these memorials?"
Ying Yuan glanced at the brazier beside him, and without saying anything, he threw all the memorials into the brazier, letting the flames burn them all.
"Tell Cao Cao that he did a good job. I am very happy."
He was secretly delighted in his heart.
He is worthy of being Prime Minister Cao.
The greatest treachery appears loyal, and it is absolutely true that the greatest treachery appears loyal.
It seems that once he became prime minister, Cao Cao's true nature was completely exposed.
I just don't know if he can still use me as a hostage to control the princes.
When the news that Ying Yuan threw all the impeachment memorials against Cao Cao into the fire basin spread outside the palace.
All the officials were shocked.
"Your Majesty's favor towards Cao Cao is truly unique and irreplaceable."
"Yes, it's only been about eight years since the second year of Chengping, and Cao Cao has already reached the pinnacle of his career!"
“…”
In the government offices of the three provinces.
Cao Cao was sitting around the stove with Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.
The last one looked at the rising fire in front of him and smiled:
"Your Majesty's trust in the Prime Minister is truly unmatched."
Cao Cao said sternly, "In this case, I must not fail the emperor's grace."
For him, he still prefers to call himself "this self" rather than "this king" or "I".
At least that's the case for now.
After all, he had just taken the position of Prime Minister for less than a year, and he had a lot of things he wanted to do.
He glanced at Zhuge Liang and said calmly, "I originally wanted you to stay in the three ministries, but unfortunately His Majesty and the Chancellor have not let you go."
The latter nodded slightly and said, "I appreciate the Prime Minister's kindness, but I can do more in the Ministry of Revenue."
During this period, he and Heshen formed a complementary trend, one was crazy about making money for the country, and the other was crazy about managing people's livelihood.
While the economy is booming, it can also ensure that prices of goods and housing in various places remain stable.
For this reason, no matter who left the other, neither Zhuge Liang nor Heshen could achieve this on their own.
Cao Cao nodded and said, "The military farming system that I promulgated in Youyun and other northern areas needs to be monitored. This is the current national policy and cannot be lost."
"The north has suffered countless wars over the years, and it's time for the people to rest and recuperate. I wonder if Kong Ming would be willing to make a trip on my behalf?"
Hearing this.
Zhuge Liang took it upon himself to say, "I, a humble servant, am a peasant by birth. I am willing to serve Your Majesty and relieve the Prime Minister of his worries."
Cao Cao clapped his hands and cheered, saying, "Excellent! With Kong Ming, the military farming system in the north will surely be established."
