Chapter 252 The death of an important minister(2/2)

Based on this unanimous evaluation by everyone in the court, Wei Feng gave him and those related to him generous rewards after Gongshu Cuo's death.

Among them, two people benefited the most. One was Gongshu Yue, the eldest son of Gongshu Cuo. He was able to inherit the title of Lord Pingyang from Gongshu Cuo and the tens of thousands of hectares of land he was rewarded.

However, perhaps because of Gongshu Cuo's instructions before his death, Gongshu Yue soon submitted a petition to return Lord Pingyang and his land to the court. This was of course rejected by Wei Feng, who was the Marquis of Wei.

After a series of exchanges of rewards and rejections, Gongshu Yue finally accepted the title of Yaqing and two thousand hectares of land.

In addition to the eldest son Gongshu Yue, Gongsun Yang, the student whom Gongshu Cuo cherished the most, was naturally the other person who benefited the most from this incident.

Gongsun Yang, who was in Xihe County and in the city of Linjin, read in his hand the order of the emperor to be promoted to the rank of minister and the autograph of Gongshu Cuo that was sent with the order.

Letting the silk book in his hand just fall on a few cases, after being speechless for a long time, Gongsun Yang walked step by step outside the room.

At this moment, Gongsun Yang could only think about the various scenes of his five years in the prime minister's mansion and the earnest teachings given to him by his teacher Gongshu Cuo.

After standing there silently for a long time, thinking a lot in his mind, Gongsun Yang slowly turned to the east.

That was the direction of Anyi, the capital of Wei State, and the direction of his teacher Gongshu Cuo.

With a "plop", Gongsun Yang knelt down directly towards the east, tears bursting out from his eyes.

"Teacher, teacher, teacher!"



As time went by, the news of the death of the old prime minister of the Wei State, Duke Cuo, began to spread from the Wei State to all countries in the world.

When hearing the news of Gongshu Cuo's death, those who have always had a grudge against him may be secretly happy, those who have had a deep conversation with him may sigh with regret, and those who have always had a close relationship with him may be heartbroken.

It was also at a time when everyone in the world who had been in contact with Gongshu Cuo had different emotions due to various reasons, that a fast horse rushed into Yongcheng, the capital of the Qin State.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good news, good news..."

Early in the morning, the announcement of the good news from Qin State's senior official Qian Long appeared in the Qin Palace in Yongcheng. Along with it, the still vigorous figure holding a cane appeared.

Soon Qianlong, with a look of joy on his face, came to Qin Gong Ying Shixi and quickly told the good news.

However, what he didn't expect was that after Qin Gong Ying Shixi heard the news, his face was not at all happy, but rather a little sad.

After the next few words, when Qianlong left the hall with doubts in his mind, Ying Shixi, who was sitting alone on the throne, picked up the silk book on the several cases.

"Brother Cuo, I didn't expect you to leave one step ahead of me."

After Youyou finished speaking, because of Gongshu Cuo's death, Ying Shixi's memory that had been buried deep in his heart slowly emerged.

Decades ago, due to the seizure of the throne by his uncle Qin Jiangong, Ying Shixi, who was originally the crown prince of Qin Linggong, had to leave his mother country and go to the Wei Kingdom in the east for safety.

It was during those days in Wei that Ying Shixi saw with his own eyes some of Wei's reform measures, and also got to know Gongshu Cuo, who was still very heroic at that time.

Ying Shixi still remembered that in Anyi City that year, he and his uncle Cuo hit it off immediately, and soon became close friends who talked about everything.

It's a pity that over the years he has always insisted on fighting for Qin, but his good friend died before him.

"Brother Cuo, have a good trip."
