Qin Shi Huang was also a little confused in his heart at this time, and to be honest, he didn’t understand the ultimate purpose of this approach by Zhao Lang.
If it was said that he wanted to take advantage of this matter to divide the various courtiers, this was also underestimating that group of ministers and nobles.
Of course even if he didn’t understand it anymore, he still had an extremely bland look on his face and said.
“Wave child this method is a bit crude, but you just follow it.”
Zhao Gao looked at Qin Shi Huang’s calm appearance, and could only heartily admire after that, then slowly retreated.
In the courtroom the next day, the courtiers were all mingling their words and
“Did you all get the news from the palace yesterday?”
“Well, the attendants sent it over, saying that the government will be discussed today, and that they will also say that they will discuss the highs and lows.”
“Hmph, is the Crown Prince trying to use this to divide us?”
“Hahaha, the Crown Prince is young in the end, although there are some schemes, they are immature.”
At this time, one of the oldest ministers and nobles, said with extreme certainty, saying.
“But no matter what, all of you must be somewhat vigilant and know what to do?”
The others responded, in succession.
“Naturally, I know!”
Using the ranking method to divide them was simply a joke.
They didn’t even need to discuss beforehand to know what to do!
Soon enough, Zhao Lang appeared in the courtroom and the deliberations began.
It was all about everyday political matters, so conclusions were quickly reached, and after everyone had finished their opinions.
Zhao Lang then took out a wooden box, along with paper, pens, and
Just as the crowd was slightly confused, Zhao Lang quickly smiled and said.
“Now all of you will be able to write down the name of the minister that you think speaks the most sense based on the opinions that you have just heard, and then throw it into the box.”
“Then it will be revealed on the spot and we’ll see whose opinion makes the most sense!”
Hearing this, all the ministers and nobles were slightly stunned, they didn’t expect that Zhao Lang would actually use this method.
If no one knew who they were voting for, then…
In a flash, the minds of all the ministers and nobles came alive.
When Zhao Lang saw this scene, the corner of his mouth also slightly revealed a smile.
The anonymous vote was specially prepared for this group of people.
“Gentlemen, start voting.”
With Zhao Lang’s order, that front position, the older ministerial noble took the lead and stood out, saying blandly, and
“Although the old man is old, the party’s deliberations are without any mistakes.”
After saying that, he voted.
Hearing these obviously suggestive words, the other ministers and nobles got it, but Zhao Lang just acted as if he didn’t hear them.
It just let the others continue to vote.
Soon, the voting was complete.
Zhao Lang quickly opened the boxes completely in public, counted them one by one, and then announced the results.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the results.
Because the results were the same as what they had predicted before, the vast majority had voted for the older ministers.
This was also the choice they usually made during the court meetings.
No matter what the other side said, they would follow.
That’s why it was said that they didn’t even need to discuss to deal with Zhao Lang.
Zhao Lang smiled at this time and said.
“Then what just happened will be carried out according to your suggestion, and by the way, please also receive your reward.”
With that, the slave on the side took out a plate of rewards.
The older minister noble held his head high, saluted and took the reward.
Zhao Lang then said.
“This is the end of today’s court meeting.”
After saying that, he got up and left.
This scene made everyone a little puzzled.
Having suffered a loss in the last slave incident, they had already come back to their senses long ago, and if it wasn’t for the fact that Emperor Qin Shi Huang had later personally come down to press the issue.
Moreover, the matter at the Northern Border was indeed urgent.
Even if they had suffered this loss, they could more or less find some trouble out.
But this time, they were a bit baffled.
Zhao Lang must have come up with this new method for his own purposes.
But right now, the result of the court meeting was that nothing had changed ah!
Is the other party fed up?
Or was it defeated by their unity?
Li Si and Wang Jian also gave each other a somewhat puzzled look at this time, and they didn’t quite understand Zhao Lang’s purpose either.
Soon, after getting off the courtroom.
Zhao Gao flew back to Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s palace and explained what had happened in the courtroom, then puzzled and said.
“Your Majesty, did His Highness the Crown Prince’s plan fail?”
After listening to Zhao Gao’s return, Qin Shi Huang was also a bit suspicious in his heart, but thinking about Zhao Gao’s statement that Zhao Lang wasn’t frustrated.
Then he blandly said.
“What’s the rush? Long’s plan has only just begun.”
“Just watch, Wave-er is bound to have a strange trick up his sleeve.”
Wasn’t Zhao Lang’s method of conscripting slaves last time also a way to get these people to let their guard down first?
Zhao Gao said at once.
“It’s still Your Majesty who sees the long term.”
