Chapter 138: Bai Gui is appointed prime minister (1)

The honeymoon is very sweet.

Sun Bin also took a big leave and enjoyed this wonderful life. The young couple loved each other and loved each other. They really envy the mandarin ducks and not the immortals.

However, the problem came soon.

That day, it was almost noon, and Sun Bin was practicing swords at home. Although the weather was cold, he was sweating profusely after a sword trip.

"Mr. I'm tired. Look at your sweat, wipe it quickly." Yin Yu, who was beside him, handed over a dry towel virtuously.

"Okay, thank you madam." Sun Bin took it with a smile and wiped his sweat.

"Master, give it to me." Xiao Qiu, who had just taken the towel, had a burst of hurried footsteps from the side.

"Military advisor, military advisor." The visitor was Yang Bu.

Sun Bin turned his head, looked at Yang Bu with an excited look on his face, and said in surprise: "Yang Bu, what's the good thing?"

"Great joy, military advisor," Yang Bu looked mysterious: "I heard outside that because Gongshu Lao Prime Minister resigned from his position as prime minister, his position was empty, and General Pang Da was outstanding in his military achievements, he would take over as prime minister."

"Is that true?" Yin Yu was also very happy when she heard this: "If Senior Brother Pang becomes the prime minister, the Langjun will definitely benefit from it."

Pang Juan was appointed as the prime minister? Sun Bin frowned and was a little suspicious: In the original history, there was no such incident, so some changes must have occurred.

Suddenly, Sun Bin remembered that in history, his senior brother Bai Gui had served as prime minister for many years, and the time was the current period.

Suddenly, Sun Bin understood everything. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the sound of hooves outside the door, and people shouted and neighed, and a personal guard shouted loudly outside the door: "General Pang Da arrived--"

"Junior brother!" At the voice, a burly and heroic general with a helmet and armor walked in with great strides, followed by dozens of elite armored soldiers.

It's not someone else, it's Pang Juan.

I saw General Pang Da, with a spring breeze on his face, and he looked proud. Obviously, he had heard the rumors that he was about to worship the prime minister.

When Pang Juan thought of his general holding the Wei army, with great power and power over the world, he couldn't help but be full of confidence.

By then, you will become famous all over the world. Who in the world doesn’t know you?

"Congratulations to the General for being promoted to the position of Prime Minister." The clever Yang Bu immediately stepped forward and flattered with a smile.

"Yes, congratulations to senior brother." Yin Yu also smiled and said with a funny smile.

"Haha, it's just a rumor. You can't take it true, you can't take it true." Pang Juan, who has always been dull and old-fashioned, couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, and his face was full of smiles.

"Senior Brother," Sun Bin sighed in his heart, but greeted him enthusiastically and said with a smile: "I heard that my senior brother has been busy with military affairs recently, why do you have time to come to me?"

Pang Juan is indeed very busy.

Recently, the Wei State has been in constant wars. Although they finally won, the Wei army suffered heavy casualties. Now they recruit new recruits, build armies, and train soldiers. There are many trivial matters, so they are so busy that Pang Juan is not stuck in the ground.

However, Pang Juan is a person with a strong desire for power, but he is not bitter at all. Instead, he is as happy as he is.

Sun Bin is different. He is not a workaholic. Marquis of Wei gave him three months of wedding leave. He planned to go to work after he had sex. It's only been more than a month now, so it's early.

"Haha..." Pang Juan smiled and said, "We brothers haven't had two drinks together for a long time. Today, I suddenly remembered that I came to ask for two glasses of water and wine. Junior brother, won't my brother and sister not welcome you, right?"

Yin Yu smiled and said, "What's the saying of senior brother? What's the point of water and wine worth it? Mr. Lang, please chat with senior brother, I'll go to the kitchen to arrange it."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Madam." Sun Bin nodded and smiled at Pang Juan: "Senior Brother, please. Yang Bu, please arrange the others."

"No." Yang Bu waved to Pang Juan's personal guards with a smile: "Dear brothers, let's go to the side room and get together."

"Okay." The guards agreed. No one was outsider and they all stood up and went to make a fuss.

The senior brother and the two were sitting in the main hall. After chatting for a few words, Yinyu arranged for the servant to serve hot rice wine and a few hot and exquisite side dishes.

Pang Juan came just in time. He just happened to catch up with the meal and didn't even have to wait.

Immediately, Yin Yu sat down and accompanied him, while Xiao Qiu served him and helped pour wine and so on.

"Senior brother, how about we drink a full drink first?" Sun Bin picked up the wine.

"Okay, do it." Pang Juan also responded with a smile.

At this moment, the two of them drank it all in one go, and they were both very happy.

Sun Bin was a little surprised.

You should know that Pang Juan is very self-disciplined on weekdays and never drinks in the army. Even at home, he rarely drinks. He only drinks a little while at banquets and other occasions, and is rarely as refreshing as he is today.

It seems that Senior Brother Pang really thought he was going to take over as Prime Minister and was happy, so he came to drink with his best junior brother. Sun Bin sighed in his heart, thinking about whether he wanted to tell him the cruel fact, but he was a little hesitant, worried that it would hit Pang Juan.

"Junior brother, what are you thinking? Eat the food quickly." Pang Juan smiled and picked up the chopsticks and feasted.

"Uh, okay, okay." Sun Bin hesitated for a while, but still didn't say it.

The two brothers and brothers ate and chatted, from the beautiful memories of their studies in Guigu to the current military and national affairs, they were so quiet that they were very lively.

While talking, Pang Juan didn't mention anything about taking over as the prime minister, and Sun Bin was so happy to pretend to be confused.

He knew Pang Juan too deeply and knew that this senior brother was particularly respectful and did not want to brag about himself, so as not to be laughed as shallow.

Soon, Pang Juan, who had enough wine and a mediocre alcoholism, was quite drunk. He was helped by his personal soldiers and slowly left.

Looking at the background where Pang Juan was leaving, Sun Bin suddenly sighed softly.

"Langjun," Yinyu was a little surprised: "Okay, why are you sighing?"

Sun Bin's face was a little gloomy: "Senior Brother Pang wants to take over as prime minister, but I'm afraid he will be disappointed in the end."

Yin Yu was shocked: "Langjun, how is this possible? Now in Wei State, Senior Brother Pang is famous and has outstanding military achievements. Who can compete with him?"

Sun Bin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You are too naive and don't understand what the emperor's mind is! The most important criterion for an emperor to use people is checks and balances, not military achievements. If you were the Marquis of Wei, would you feel at ease to give all the military and political power of the whole country to an outsider? Don't forget, how did the Three Jins come from?"

The three Jin dynasties are Han, Zhao, and Wei.

These three countries are Han, Zhao and Wei. They took the power of Jin and undermined the king. In the end, they simply divided Jin and all became independent.

With such a lesson, how can Wei Ying be unaware of her experience?

Yin Yu suddenly realized and sighed, "The things in the officialdom are really complicated. It seems that Senior Brother Pang is really disappointed. So, Langjun, look, who will take over as the Prime Minister in the end?"

Sun Bin smiled slightly: "Now, in Wei State, except for Senior Brother Pang, only two people have such prestige. One is my senior brother Bai Gui, and the other is your father and my father-in-law, choose one of them."

Bai Gui, who was born into a famous family in Wei State, was a noble family. He had outstanding talents and moral character. He would not object to the Prime Minister.

Prince Ang, Wei Ying's younger brother, is the first to the office, and has great military achievements and is well-known in the army. It is reasonable for such a person to serve as prime minister.

Yin Yu couldn't help but feel happy when she heard this. After all, neither Bai Gui nor Gongzi Ang took over, they were not outsiders, and it was very beneficial to Sun Bin.

However, when Yin Yu thought of Pang Juan whose dream was about to fail, he couldn't help but worry: "If Senior Brother Bai or his father takes over as Prime Minister, will Senior Brother Pang have a gap?"

Sun Bin was also worried about this. You should know that Pang Juan’s desire for power is very strong and his mind is definitely not broad. However, since things have come to this point, worrying is useless, and he smiled bitterly: “I can only take one step and see one step.”

The couple couldn't help but sigh.
