Chapter 1801: Gongsun Yan announces his retirement
"Very good!" Han Yi glanced at the bamboo slips in his hand, sighed for a long time, threw the bamboo slips to Xin Qiji, rubbed his eyebrows, and looked quite solemn: "This old guy is causing trouble for the orphan until he dies!"
"King! What should I do? Once the news spreads, it will definitely arouse suspicion from the princes, believing that the king killed the King of Zhou, and he may give them a verbal excuse at that time!" Xin Qiji's expression was quite serious. When he guessed what might happen in the future, Xin Qiji showed concern, and then there would be millions of people who died.
Han Yi stroked his beard with one hand, looked at the dusk outside the window, rubbed his wrist, and then said, "Don't block the news, just hold a national tragedy! Bury him with the tribute of the emperor. After all, he has been frustrated for life. Let him be glorious when he dies."
"But the king! This will attract...!" Xin Qiji listened to Han Yi's words and immediately opposed it and continued to say: "The war has just ended! The people need to rest and recuperate. Although the national treasury is full, once the war is defeated, the country will not be able to make ends meet! King! You can't act voluntarily at this time!"
"What are you afraid of!" Han Yi rode on the stone railing with his hands, and his black tiger eyes saw every corner of the palace clearly. Han Yi pointed to the sunset in the sky, and said indifferently: "Today's sun has set, tomorrow's sun will still rise. Who can guarantee that tomorrow's sun will still be today's sun!"
"King! What do you mean?" Xin Qiji listened to Han Yi saying these strange words, looked at the dusk at sunset in the sky, his eyes were full of confusion. He savored Han Yi's words carefully and understood one or two.
"Go down and do it! Gu can just look at the blind eye-opener who wants to try Gu's blade!" Han Yi let out a long breath, with a look of fatigue in his eyes.
"Master! Two more things!" Xin Qiji hesitated, as if he didn't know what to say next. Han Yi glanced at Xin Qiji: "If you have anything, just say it directly, don't hesitate!"
"Zhang Yi is still in the secret of Tianji! Lai Junchen tortured him, but no news was found! What should we do with the king, Zhang Yi!" Xin Qiji shone on his face in the sunset dusk. Although the yellow warm light shone on Xin Qiji's face looked warm, Xin Qiji's face was a bit scary.
"Since you can't get it out, then kill it!" Han Yi didn't hesitate much. After all, since Han Yi ascended the throne, Zhang Yi will inevitably be there in the war about Qin, so Han Yi must kill him and cannot let him go.
"The third thing is the throne of the emperor. The king is preparing to ascend the throne as the emperor, but he is still choosing one from the Zhou Wang clan!" Xin Qiji swept Han Yi with the light from the corner of his eyes. After all, this time Han Yi can ascend to the throne legitimately, and the emperor's Nine Cauldrons are in his hand. If he wants to, the emperor's name can be held in his hand.
"No need! This kind of false reputation is useless. As long as the real power is in your hands, it is true. Just choose one from the Zhou royal family! Remember! It is better to be a baby, don't cause trouble for the orphans!" Han Yi sighed with a long breath. The day was so exhausting.
"I understand!" Xin Qiji bowed to Han Yi and then stepped down. Han Yi returned to the study, picked up the wine bottle and drank a sip of hot water. He was about to continue checking the bamboo slips. Gao Lishi walked in inappropriately, looked at Han Yi and said with a respectful expression; "King, General Gongsun Yan is asking for a meeting!"
"Oh!" Han Yi was shocked, and the bamboo slips and brush he had just picked up began to put down again. Looking at the empty cup, Han Yi sighed helplessly and breathed: "Today is a troublesome day! Ask him to come in!"
"promise!"
Half a minute later, Gongsun Yan, with gray hair, walked over. Although he was still strong, he was a little old after all. His originally straight waist had become bent. When he first met Gongsun Yan, Han Yi was only seventeen years old, Gongsun Yan was already in his forties. Now, he has been in his thirties forty years. Han Yi is already in his thirties and Gongsun Yan is nearly 60 years old.
Gongsun Yan was wearing a yellow cloth dress with a wine gourd that he used to use on his waist. He turned to Han Yi and bowed to him: "Old minister, please see Dawei!"
Han Yi looked at his important minister, the battle to destroy Zheng! The battle to destroy Zheng! The battle to destroy Wei! The battle to destroy Wei! The battle to Pingyang! Almost every battle has his shadow! It can be said that he has made great achievements. Han Yi looked at this old minister, waving his sleeves, looking at Gongsun Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, and waved his hand: "You and I are all old friends! Don't kneel down at any time! Get up! Give me a seat, don't salute when you see the lonely in the future!"
"Old minister! Thank you, the king!" Gongsun Yan stood up with the help of Gao Lishi. The two eunuchs behind brought a chair and sent it behind Gongsun Yan. Gongsun Yan sat down openly, subconsciously took off the gourd on his waist and drank a sip of the wine, and said immediately: "The old minister has been following the king for twenty years! Now he is full of white hair. What he comes today is actually saying goodbye to the king!"
"Say your farewell!" Han Yi was stunned. For some reason, his cold heart was a little nervous for many years. Han Yi immediately laughed: "Don't joke with Gu! I'm safe and happy to spend my whole life in Chang'an. I can play chess and drink with Gu Jiao if I have nothing to do!"
"King! The old minister also wants to accompany the king! But the barbecue in my hometown and the fat fish in the river have always been the ones that the old ministers have always been thinking about! The old minister has not been alive for several years! I heard that the king wants to establish a crown prince! The prince comes out of our army and has some friendship with me. I can't let the king make things difficult for me! The old ministers are sure to go back! Give the young people below some opportunities!" Gongsun Yan said and stood up, his face looking grim.
"My dear...you!" Han Yi's eyes were a little wet, and he looked at Gongsun Yan, but he didn't know what to say. What Gongsun Yan did was to avoid suspicion and not to destroy the friendship between the monarch and the ministers.
"King!" Gao Lishi took out a white towel and handed it to Han Yi. Han Yi then realized the wetness of the corners of his eyes. Who said that the emperor was ruthless? The emperor's love would not be expressed until the last moment.
"Gongsun Yan came forward to listen...Feng!" Han Yi's last word was very light, so light that he could not even hear it clearly.
"Old minister is here!" Gongsun Yan stepped forward and bowed with a respectful look, his whole body trembling.
"Gongsun Yan made great achievements in war and worked hard and made great contributions! He is now named General of the State! He is ranked in Yan Yuan, and was named Marquis of Wuyi. He is one of the twelve Marquis, with a fief of 1,000 households! He is hereditary to Gong!" Han Yi exclaimed, and Gongsun Yan was the second marquis after Han Qinhu.
