Chapter 939 Meng Qi's Westward Migration Plan
Chapter 939 Meng Qi's Westward Migration Plan
Queen Mother Zhao moved her lips as if she wanted to say something.
Meng Qi immediately gave her a sharp glare and shouted, "You are so rude, Queen Mother! Fairy Yu was intercepted by the demon god halfway because of your invitation and almost lost her life.
At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, just after entering Shenzhou, Fairy Yu made great contributions to Daqin and Shenzhou.
He even went so far as to defy fate and change his destiny, which incurred the jealousy of God, leading to the subsequent ninety-nine great heavenly tribulations.
It's you who should thank her and apologize to her.
Now Fairy Yu is very polite and she apologizes to you and gives you a precious gift.
You are obsessed with the imaginary peaches, and you have ruined the reputation of the court."
Xiaoyu was stunned: Old man, you are facing the Queen Mother Regent of the Qin Dynasty. Is it really okay to say such things in public?
Uh, she seemed to have forgotten what she had just said.
Meng Qi is at least the Grand Master, but she is still a wild cultivator who is "not in the true stream"!
Queen Mother Zhao looked unhappy and said, "Meng Qi, don't speak nonsense and slander me.
I just heard Fairy Yu say 'eternal youth and eternal life', so I asked out of curiosity."
——I didn’t say youth is eternal!
Moreover, "Wanshouwujiang" means "Long live the emperor", which is a polite remark. What are you thinking about?
Xiaoyu complained in her heart.
Lao Ai then said, "Meng Zhenjun, although you are highly respected and trusted by the Queen Mother, you cannot forget the rules of etiquette just because the Queen Mother is kind and generous by nature."
Xiao Yu also tried to smooth things over, saying, "Senior Meng was too caring towards me, so I misunderstood the Empress.
Your Majesty is honest and forthright, and has no ill intentions. She has clarified the misunderstanding, which will be of great benefit to me.
So that others will not be thinking about the big peach that does not exist on me. "
Lao Ai nodded and said, "Fairy Yu is the one who sees things clearly. Xianyang is the best place in the world, with many extraordinary people, and news spreads quickly.
After chatting with the Queen today, everyone in Shenzhou will understand that everyone has misunderstood the Fairy before."
"Okay, stop talking about this."
Meng Qi waved his hand impatiently and said, "Queen Mother, let's talk business! Last year, you summoned Fairy Yu to the court to recruit talents.
Fairy Yu's wisdom and ability were fully demonstrated in her position as Prime Minister of Western Shu.
Therefore, you had to assign an important official position to her, which was originally the 'Shaofu', one of the Nine Ministers.
Now Fairy Yu has made unprecedented contributions in the Northern Frontier, eaten the giant peaches, and killed many immortals. She has unparalleled magical powers and limitless magic. I am far from being as good as her.
'Shaofu' is obviously no longer appropriate.
I am willing to abdicate and let her take over as the Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty to assist the Queen Mother in regulating yin and yang!"
After saying this, he didn't look at Queen Dowager Zhao, but instead looked at Xiaoyu with expectant eyes.
Xiaoyu was a little restless.
It’s not that I can’t bear it, or that I’m deeply moved.
It's just embarrassing!
—— Damn it, if you want to recommend me and throw this hot potato of the Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty to me, you should choose the right time and place! How can I decline politely or respond when you say such things in front of me?
Moreover, looking at Queen Dowager Zhao and Lao Ai opposite her, the expressions on their faces were even more embarrassed and awkward than hers.
Obviously there was no discussion!
We haven't even discussed this yet, what are you talking about?
Xiao Yu immediately stood up, bowed to Meng Qi, and then bowed to the Queen Mother, and said sincerely: "I am just a commoner in a barbarian country. Fortunately, I learned Taoism and have some Taoism skills. I can barely be considered a wandering immortal.
Thanks to the Empress Dowager’s kindness, I have the honor of seeing the Emperor.
Being able to call oneself "minister" in front of the Queen Mother and holding an official position are both supreme favors.
How dare I covet the honorable position of Grand Tutor?
Father Meng, please listen to me, and stop being so modest. You are the best Grand Tutor of the Qin Dynasty.
My biggest dream is to enter the Imperial Observatory and continue to learn and improve by your side."
"Fairy Yu, please sit down first." Meng Qi pointed to the stool, looked around, and said, "Prince Changxin can stay. The rest of the people, including the secret guards outside the house, all retreat fifty feet away."
The maids and eunuchs in the palace marked their steps and looked at the Queen Mother and Lao Ai.
The Queen Mother sighed, "You all leave."
After everyone left, Meng Qi said seriously: "Dongfang Shuo is trapped in Kunlun Fairyland and will probably not be able to return to the human world for hundreds of years. The position of 'Grand Protector of the Western Regions' has been vacant for a year.
As for the 'Great Qin Demon-Suppressing Army' in the Xisha region, Dongfang Shuo had been away for almost two years.
They can't hold on any longer.
However, the grand strategy for the Western Regions was an important backup plan left by the late emperor to the Ying family.
To the east of China is the East China Sea, to the north is the ancestral home of demon gods, and the south is filled with miasma and is not suitable for human habitation. Only in the west is there vast fertile land where a foundation for eternity can be established.
The Qin Dynasty today has already strategically retreated and does not really need a 'Grand Commander of the Western Regions'.
But the Ying Dynasty needs a person who is both powerful and trustworthy to take over Dongfang Shuo's job. "
The Queen Mother murmured, "Then appoint Fairy Yu to replace Dongfang Shuo as the Protector General of the Western Regions and take full charge of the affairs of the West."
Xiaoyu frowned slightly.
She didn't come to Daqin to be an official.
Even if she wanted to be an official, it would be better for her to obtain the resources she needed from Xianyang.
After becoming the Protector-General of the Western Regions and returning to the Xisha Region, what did she want?
Meng Qi shook his head and said, "Queen Mother, let's be frank! The Qin Dynasty is about to end, and it will only last a few years."
Lao Ai's face turned pale and he shouted, "Meng Zhenjun, is this the kind of thing a 'Grand Master of the Great Qin' can say? And in front of the Queen Mother, what are your intentions?"
Meng Qi's aura exploded and he glared at him fiercely.
A powerful pressure, like a small mountain, fell on Lao Ai's heart.
He took two steps back, his face pale and his eyes filled with fear, shame, anger and hatred.
"Idiot! Everything you have now comes from the Queen Mother. If she didn't have a good ending, how can you have a good ending?
Every word I say now will be your life-saving talisman in the future."
Queen Mother Zhao said coldly: "Meng Qi, you are the Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty. You should take it as your responsibility to support the country and turn the tide, instead of speaking discouraging words in front of me."
Meng Qi waved his hand and said, "Don't expect me to say such nice words.
Now let me finish telling you the unpleasant truth.
If you are not satisfied with my arrangement, you can refuse it.
You are the queen mother, the mistress of the Ying royal family, and no one can force you."
"I'd like to hear what you have to say." Queen Mother Zhao said with a wooden face.
Meng Qi said: "Who among the Qigong practitioners in the world doesn't know about the situation in Daqin?
Didn’t Lao Ai know?
If you were not anxious, Queen Mother, why did you insist on recruiting hundreds of thousands of laborers to build your own mausoleum during the heyday of the Spring and Autumn Period, despite the advice of the ministers? "
Queen Mother Zhao's expression changed, and she shouted, "I am the regent queen mother, and it is only natural and in accordance with etiquette and law for me to improve the Netherworld Kingdom during my lifetime.
Throughout history, countless emperors have been like this, which one is not like this? " "Okay, okay, I'm going to say it, listen to me, don't interrupt me anymore."
Meng Qi glanced at the expressionless Xiao Yu, slowed down his tone, and continued: "I want Fairy Yu to take over the position of Grand Master, not to plot against the Fairy, to let the Fairy replace me and accompany Da Qin to perish together.
Fairy Yu is the Grand Tutor of the Qin Dynasty at this time, which is fate.
The Qin Dynasty is about to fall, but what should the royal family and the subjects of the Qin Dynasty do?
Staying in the Central Plains is a dead end.
It is better to go west and establish "Western Qin" in the west.
At this moment, the most important thing for the Ying royal family is to arrange a way out for themselves.
The retreat lies in the west, in the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
The Protector General of the Western Regions of the Qin Dynasty at this time would be the future Grand Tutor and Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty.
If Dongfang Shuo were still here, I would secretly cooperate with him, provide him with the resources he needs, and help him lead the "Suppressing Demons Army" to take root in the Xisha region and prepare for the subsequent westward migration of the Qin royal family.
But Dongfang Shuo was caught stealing peaches and could not come back.
It would be extremely difficult to find someone to replace Dongfang Shuo.
Even though Fairy Yu is very familiar with the situation in the West, she has too many enemies. If she goes to the West alone and stays in the Western Regions Protectorate or other places for a long time, there will definitely be a steady stream of enemies coming to her.
Fairy Yu is a smart person and will not expose herself to huge risks.
I arranged for Fairy Yu to be the Grand Tutor of the Qin Empire, not to sacrifice Fairy Yu for the benefit of the Ying family.
Rather, it is in the best interests of both of you if you come together.
Now that Fairy Yu has replaced me as the Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty, she can quickly and directly familiarize herself with the court situation, understand the Ying family's personnel and resources, and can adapt to circumstances, mobilize resources, and adjust the westward migration plan as needed."
After Meng Qi finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then turned to Queen Mother Zhao and said, "Queen Mother, now tell me, according to my 'westward migration strategy', who is more suitable than Fairy Yu to be the Grand Tutor of the Qin Dynasty?
No! She is the chosen one, the pillar of your Ying family and the king of support. "
Then he turned to Xiao Yu and said softly, “After becoming the Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty, Fairy Yu will definitely have a hard time.
But I assure you that your efforts will be well worth the rewards.
The wealth that the Emperor of Humanity has accumulated for the Qin Dynasty is absolutely beyond your imagination.
You have not yet entered the immortal sect, and in the future probably no Taoist sect will accept you as their true disciple.
It is better to use the Daqin platform to forge a new path, your own road.
I am not trying to fool you. You can achieve great things in a small place like Xishu. With the support of the Qin court, it is unimaginable what you can achieve. "
Seeing Xiao Yu remained calm, he sighed deeply again and said, “In fact, the Heavenly Immortal Path is not as beautiful as outsiders imagine.
When the path to immortality comes to an end, one still has to find one’s own path.
If the fairy can find the right path at this time, she will definitely benefit from it for the rest of her life."
To be honest, Xiaoyu was actually a little moved by the old man.
Before coming to Xianyang, she secretly decided that she would never accept the position of Grand Tutor.
Because she knew the end of the Qin Dynasty.
She didn't want to become the "Wen Zhong" of the Qin Dynasty.
If she is called "Grand Master", but is actually just the "Grand Protector of the Western Regions" and is only responsible for the Ying family's westward migration, she will be able to control all the resources left by the Human Emperor's rule and allow her to drive and mobilize them. The temptation is really great.
She came to Xianyang and was willing to serve as an official in the court at this time. Wasn't it just for the legacy of the Emperor's rule?
The reason why she was unwilling to serve as the Grand Master of the Great Qin was that participating in the "Great Disaster of Qin and Han" and the "Chu-Han Contention" as the "Grand Master of the Great Qin" was simply courting death, and her death would be even more miserable than Wen Zhong's.
Now, as the Grand Tutor of the Great Qin, she does not need to participate in the Qin-Han catastrophe at all.
Before the Chu-Han Contention, he fled to the West with the Ying royal family.
There is no reason for Liu Laosan and Xiang Yu to leave the colorful world of Central Plains alone and follow Wanli to the Xisha Region to hunt down the remnants of the Qin Dynasty, right?
And the most crucial point: by following Meng Qi’s plan, she can repay the cause and effect of “Ying Zheng’s Heirloom”!
If she only took advantage of Xianyang, and ran away as soon as the anti-Qin army entered Guanzhong, the karma she owed would be too great and too difficult to repay.
While benefiting from the relics of the Human Emperor, he settled the "remnants of the Ying family" in the west and established the Western Qin Empire, and the cause and effect would naturally be resolved.
Liusha Region is her home ground, so it is very easy to find a place to settle the Ying family.
And she knew "history", so it was very easy for her to determine the exact time and route of escape.
Xiaoyu was only a little moved, but more embarrassed and conflicted.
No matter how perfect Meng Qi's plan sounded, it was not her plan.
"Senior Meng's plan is huge, but a little fanciful. I am a crude and unsophisticated person who knows nothing. No matter how good your plan is, I am not capable enough!"
Meng Qi said in a positive tone: "Fairy Yu's knowledge and experience are indeed a little lacking. But in terms of the ability to assist the king and govern the country, no one in the world can surpass the fairy.
Including all the dignitaries in the court at this moment."
Xiaoyu was not flattered. Instead, she suspected that the old man was doubly deceiving her.
“Senior Meng, to be honest with you, I don’t even understand the system and laws of the Qin Dynasty.
You asked me to be the Grand Tutor or the Prime Minister, but I don’t even know their daily affairs.”
"You have been the 'Prime Minister', right? And you did a very good job." Meng Qi said.
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I am sorry to have embarrassed you, Senior and Queen Mother. I am a crude and barbaric person who randomly got the position of 'Prime Minister'.
In fact, it is just physical work to eliminate demons and monsters. You don’t need to use your brain, just do it brute force.”
Meng Qi shook his head and said, "If recklessness can consolidate the power of the human king, there won't be only a few 'overlords' in this world.
The title of "Human Emperor" was not truly worthy of the title until the reign of the previous Emperor Ying Zheng."
Xiaoyu's face changed slightly. He wanted to make some excuses or play dumb, but he felt it was unnecessary.
Last year, she was still wary of the Ying court's fear of the Human King's power.
Now she has killed Huang An and even destroyed the lair of the head of the Shenxiao Sect. Her tolerance is also expanding with her strength and achievements.
She glanced at Queen Mother Zhao.
The reluctance on Queen Mother Zhao's face was more obvious than on hers.
Obviously, Meng Qi didn't convince her.
Xiao Yu said, "Senior Meng, this matter is too sudden. Can you give me a few days to think about it? Let the Queen Mother and the Ying clan discuss it.
After all, this is a matter of great importance to the fate of the Qin Dynasty, and we cannot be careless about it. "
Queen Mother Zhao was waiting for her to say this. Upon hearing this, she immediately smiled and nodded, saying, "Since Fairy Yu needs time to consider, Master Meng should not push her too hard.
Well, today I will enthrone Fairy Yu as the 'Grand Heavenly Master' of the Great Qin.
Grand Tutor Meng, please take her to familiarize herself with the work of the Imperial Observatory and understand the court environment.
When Fairy Yu really masters the function of 'Grand Master', she will be able to take over your position in the future."
