Chapter 477
Being recommended by Ying Xi, Ying Zheng is willing to believe that Xiao He can manage Chu land well.

But the ministers are not necessarily willing.

After all, the land of Chu is very large. If Xiao He is assigned to go there, in the eyes of the ministers, it will be no different from enfeoffment.

For this sweet pastry, they will definitely take the initiative to apply for the past.

At that time, Xiao He, who is still inexperienced, will definitely be criticized in various ways.

He was afraid that Xiao He would not be able to hold on!
After hearing Ying Zheng's concerns, Ying Xi smiled faintly: "Father, with you here, do they really dare to say anything?"

Ying Xi's words gave Ying Zheng a sudden understanding.

Yes!

Who is he?
He is the emperor of Daqin, a man of his own accord!

If anyone dares to object to the person he appointed, then wait to be punished!

"Okay! It's Xiao He!"

The next morning, Li Si stood up with a blank face.

The ministers all lowered their heads. Through the previous incidents, they all knew that Li Si was Ying Xi's tongue, and what he wanted to say was Ying Xi's meaning.

"Your Majesty, although the land of Chu has already been incorporated into the territory of our Qin State, the people of Chu seem to be quite hostile to our Great Qin, and have never been integrated into our Great Qin."

"This winter, all parts of my Great Qin have good harvests, but the harvest in Chu is not good, and the people of Chu are becoming more and more dissatisfied with my Great Qin."

"I think that since the land of Chu is already in the middle of our Great Qin, the people in it should also be the people of my Great Qin, and we must help them."

As soon as Li Si's words fell, the hall suddenly became noisy.

Did they hear it right?

Want to help Chu people?
Who didn't know that it was the Chu people who resisted the most?
Prime Minister Li Si, is he confused?
Just as they were about to speak, they suddenly saw Ying Xi sitting beside Ying Zheng, and immediately retracted the foot that had just been stretched out.

If Li Si dared to say that, he must have been instructed by Ying Xi.

Everyone knows who Ying Xi is.

Those who oppose him will die!
They didn't want to risk their lives for the people of Chu.

Ying Xi looked at the silent ministers and smiled faintly.

These people are like this, when they have no interests, they will never stand out.

But if there is a benefit, it is still a great benefit, and everything will be left behind.

What Li Si said now was only to help the people of Chu, which was of no benefit to the ministers.

So none of them spoke.

Ying Xi believes that these ministers will take action next.

At this time, Ying Zheng nodded: "Since they are also my citizens of Daqin, of course they should be rescued."

Ying Zheng said this with full confidence.

This year, with the help of those things from the Mohist school, Daqin set an unprecedented harvest record.

The people still have a lot of surplus food after paying their taxes in full.

And Ying Zheng had already received a lot of food from the market under the reminder of Ying Xi.

These grains are completely enough for disaster relief.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

Li Si praised, and then said: "However, disaster relief also needs to be coordinated by someone, so it needs to be managed by one person."

"That makes sense, who is it?" Ying Zheng nodded again, and then asked.

The ministers also nodded, and there was nothing wrong with what Li Si said.

However, the ministers were still the same as before, no one stood up.

Responsible for disaster relief is not a pretty job.Before doing this, they might have been able to enrich their own pockets, but now that Yingxi exists, who among them would dare to risk their lives?

They would never take the initiative to do such a thankless task.

Even afraid of being named by Ying Zheng, the ministers lowered their heads one by one, wishing to disappear from where they were.

Li Si naturally mentioned the person Ying Xi had already appointed by default: "I recommend Xiao He."

Xiao He?

Hearing this name, the ministers were all taken aback.

Although Xiao He had only been an official in the same dynasty with them for a few months, the ministers had a deep impression on him.

Several times Xiao He put forward some very suggestive ideas in the hall, showing his intelligence.

Then, Xiao He, the new official, was able to assist His Majesty in reviewing the memorials just like Li Si, the prime minister.

I am afraid that only Xiao He, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping have this honor in the whole Great Qin.

So the ministers envied, envied and hated Xiao He.

Naturally, Xiao He was envious of being able to accompany Ying Zheng to review the memorial.

What is jealous is that Xiao He is extremely intelligent and compares them all.

And I hate it, naturally Xiao He was selected through the imperial examination system. Doesn't this show that the imperial examination system is better than the recommendation system?
So after hearing Li Si's recommendation of Xiao He, many ministers wanted to stand up and oppose it.

Everyone has been an official for so many years, can't they compare with Xiao He who has only been an official for a few months?

But after thinking about it, the ministers took their feet back again.

Anyway, what happened this time is not a good job, so why stand up against it?

Li Si's daring to nominate Xiao He must have been ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and there was no need for them to offend the Crown Prince for such a useless matter.

You know, at the enthronement ceremony that day, Ying Zheng announced to the world that he would let Ying Xi supervise the country again.

Although Ying Zheng was still awake, Ying Xi sat next to Ying Zheng every morning after that. Although he didn't speak much, it was obvious that Ying Zheng attached great importance to Ying Xi.

"Xiao He?"

At this time, Ying Zheng showed a hint of surprise on his face, and then looked at the ministers: "Do you have any objections to this?"

Of course, none of the ministers stood up, but no one agreed.

In short, they express their opinions with silence.

Do not agree, do not oppose.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng looked at Li Si again: "Prime Minister, tell me why you chose Xiao He?"

Li Si repeated what Ying Xi said before, and then said: "The situation in Chudi is different from that in other places, and we need someone who can take the responsibility there."

"I think that Xiao He is such a person. I hope that His Majesty can give Xiao He enough authority so that he can handle special affairs in Chu, and do things conveniently."

After Li Si finished speaking, the ministers felt something was wrong.

What is sufficient authority?
How big is big enough?
Also, the later special affairs are specially handled to facilitate things. Why does it sound so similar to the enfeoffed princes?

Could it be that the disaster relief is false, and the enfeoffment is true?
Thinking of this, the ministers couldn't sit still.

Although they didn't know why Li Si did something similar to enfeoffment, their eyes were already attracted by such a big piece of fat.

This is a good opportunity to own a closed country!

Immediately, a minister stood up, with a righteous face, and sternly said: "Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate!"

When Ying Zheng saw a minister coming out, he became a little more energetic.

These people, exactly as Xi'er said, finally couldn't hold back after hearing that it was profitable.
