Chapter 189 Between Important Ministers

After saying these words, Gongshu Cuo and Gongsun Qi looked at each other, and a smile full of tacit understanding appeared on their faces at the same time, along with a burst of hearty laughter.

"Hahaha……"

After a while, when the laughter gradually dissipated in the surrounding palace rooms, the expression on Gongshu Cuo's face slowly became a little more serious.

"Anyang Jun, I want to tell you what's on my mind."

"I am really getting old. Even if I just deal with ordinary government affairs, I am still somewhat incapable of doing it."

"On the other hand, Your Majesty is still in his prime. He will not be satisfied with the achievements he has achieved now. He has all kinds of pride in his heart to realize."

"I know that I can't help him much anymore. In this case, it's better to simply retreat and not let myself hinder his progress."

The sadness of the hero's twilight years was vividly displayed in Gongshu Cuo's words. Then he looked at Gongsun Qi in front of him, and a solemnity and expectation emerged in his eyes.

"But Mr. Anyang, you are different from me. You are younger than me, and you are more capable than me to assist you in achieving great things."

"I believe that if I can get your dedicated assistance, Your Majesty will be able to complete the career he hopes for, and our country, Wei, will be stronger than it is now."

Having said this, Gongshu Cuo immediately took a step forward, and his hands tightly grasped Gongsun Qi's hands in front of him.

"Anyang Jun, after I leave, I will leave it to you and the Wei State to please Anyang Jun."

Everything Gongshu Cuo said just now came from his heart, and every word he said was full of his heart for Wei Feng and the state of Wei.

Facing the pleading old man standing in front of him, Gongsun Qi felt a little moved in his heart.

"But please rest assured, Prime Minister, Gongsun Qi will definitely do his best to assist you in achieving your great achievements."

"That's good, that's good!"

Amidst Gongshu Cuo's satisfied words, the two of them walked slowly towards the palace gate in front.

What Gongshu Cuo and Gongsun Qi didn't notice was that while they were talking, there were several eyes watching them quietly.

When the two figures in the field of vision gradually moved away, Duan Qianjie, the minister of Wei State, withdrew his gaze.

Turning around to look at Shangqing Wangcuo who was standing next to him, Duan Qianjie saw a gloomy and uncertain face.

He took a slight step towards the other party and heard Duan Qianjie say softly: "Shang Qing, what the Prime Minister just said is that he is going to recommend Sima to your Majesty as the next Prime Minister."

"What kind of prime minister? Hasn't Gongsun Qi already resigned from the prime minister? Then he is no longer a prime minister."

His words were mixed with deep disgust, and there was even more jealousy in Wang Cuo's eyes as he looked forward.

The right hand in his long sleeve was clenched tightly into a fist at this moment. Wang Cuo could only hear Wang Cuo secretly gnashing his teeth and mumbling to himself: "Why Gongsun Qi? Why Gongsun Qi? Why Gongsun Qi?"

It can be said that the grudge between Wang Cuo and Gongsun Qi has a long history, and it all started when Wei Feng had not yet succeeded to the throne.

At that time, Wei Feng and his younger brother Gong Zhongxu were competing for the throne. Wang Cuo was under Wei Feng's command, while Gongsun Qi was on Gong Zhongxu's side.

After the death of Wei Wuhou, the two men were fighting for the throne. In order to restore his own decline, Gong Zhonghuan sent his most valued Gongsun Qi to contact Zhao and South Korea.

After hearing the news, Wei Feng, on the advice of Gongshu Cuo, also sent an envoy to make peace with South Korea. This envoy is now Wang Cuo, the Shangqing of Wei.

Next, perhaps out of considerations of their own interests or perhaps impressed by Gongsun Qi's sharp words, both Zhao and Han expressed their support for Gong Zhongxuan respectively, but dismissed Wang Cuo, Wei Feng's envoy.

.

The bad blood between Gongsun Qi and Wang Cuo started from this incident.

After that, although Gongsun Qi was personally invited by Wei Feng to serve in the Wei state, the relationship between the two people not only did not ease, but instead became worse due to different opinions in the court.

Now that he heard with his own ears that Gongsun Qi was about to take over Gongshu Cuo's position and become prime minister, how could Wang Cuo be convinced?

Watching the figure slowly disappearing from his field of vision, the disgust in Wang Cuo's eyes not only did not disappear, but intensified.

The clenched right fist was clenched even tighter at this moment, and sounds could be heard coming from the fist from time to time. The jealousy in Wang Cuo's eyes reached its peak at this moment.

"Gongsun Qi, just wait and see. Don't think that you will be able to do anything if you are about to become the Prime Minister. You cannot have the final say in this huge Wei State."

After secretly uttering these words, Wang Cuo never looked in the direction where Gongsun Qi disappeared. Instead, Wang Cuo walked in the same direction.

Duan Qianjie, who had been standing next to Wang Cuo from the beginning, first looked at the place where Gongsun Qi's figure disappeared just now, and then looked at Wang Cuo who was striding forward at this moment, but the look on his face was particularly strange.

Meaningful.

As for what this Duan Qian disciple, who came from a well-known family and had just become a minister, was thinking about, I am afraid not many people could guess it except himself.

Just after Gongshu Cuo, Gongsun Qi, Wang Cuo, and Duan Qianjie left the palace, a somewhat mysterious figure appeared in front of Wei Hou Wei Feng in the back hall.

"Is this really what Xiangguo said?"

"Exactly."

Hearing the words asked by Wei Feng in front of him, he heard this man say with some solemnity: "I heard these words with my own ears, and I dare not deceive you in the slightest."

Hearing this response fall in his ears, Wei Feng slowly put down the memorial in his hand, but a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

In his previous life, Wei Feng actually had more respect for his teacher than trust from the bottom of his heart.

This can be gleaned from the fact that before Gongshu Cuo was seriously ill, he recommended Gongsun Yang to Wei Feng, but Wei Feng did not take his words to heart.

After having more contact with his teacher in this life, Wei Feng had a somewhat different understanding of this teacher whom he once respected more than he trusted.

Perhaps he once did something that harmed the interests of Wei State because of his own interests, or perhaps he once forced Wu Qi, a great talent in the world, to leave Wei State.

But Wei Feng, who had resurrected his life, knew that Gongshu Cuo had given all his loyalty to him and to the Wei State.

Even though he has now chosen to leave the court, Gongshu Cuo still misses himself and the state of Wei.

After repeating the words he just heard in his ears countless times, an idea slowly emerged in Wei Feng's mind. He should also go and see his teacher.

"Here, prepare the car."
