Chapter 328: Shang Yang, the Pioneer of Reform



"However, such a person is still only a minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the Qin State..."

-------------------------------------

I guess Ying Yuan never thought of this in his dreams.

The greatest reformer in history, who can be regarded as the founder of the Legalists, is about to come to the Qin State.

About half a month passed.

Wei Yang finally arrived at Xianyang City.

He slowly got off the carriage, looked at the tall and majestic city before him, and smiled:

"From today on, I, Wei Yang, will be considered a minister of Qin."

As soon as the words fell.

Then he saw Zhuge Liang coming.

Behind him were Cao Cao and his entourage.

Zhuge Liang introduced each party's identities to each other.

Wei Yang was the first to bow and said, "I have long heard of Prime Minister Cao's great name. Back then, during the great war between Qin and Chu, Prime Minister Cao defeated the larger force with a small force, a story that remains a legend to this day."

Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed and said, "I have heard Kong Ming speak of you many times, and now I finally get to see you."

Afterwards, everyone entered the city one after another.

The next day.

Cao Cao originally planned to report Wei Yang's affairs to Ying Yuan.

After all, he planned to let Wei Yang serve as an official under the prime minister first.

According to the Qin system, this official position is of the fourth rank.

Let a person who has no experience in being an official and only has some talent and reputation be appointed as a fourth-rank official right from the start.

Cao Cao was undoubtedly under pressure.

So, he planned to tell Ying Yuan first.

However, before Cao Cao could even utter the name 'Wei Yang', Ying Yuan laughed and said:

"For such a small matter, you, Prime Minister Cao, can make the decision alone."

What he was thinking was, who was this person worthy of Cao Cao coming in person to explain?

It must be his relatives, friends or something like that.

Isn't this nepotism?

If the situation continues to develop like this, then the entire court will be filled with Cao Cao's people, right?

Isn't this indirectly helping yourself to commit a foolish act?

Support, you must support.

After hearing Ying Yuan's words, Cao Cao was immediately moved. He knelt down and said:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust!"

Yes, he was touched.

I couldn't help but think to myself.

Your Majesty, this shows how confident and trustful you are in yourself.

Why would they give me the power to appoint and dismiss officials at will without asking any questions?

How many ministers throughout history have been able to gain such trust?

This is the supreme grace of the emperor!

Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will make good use of the power you have given me and serve the country with all my strength!

The emperor’s grace is so great!
