Zhao Che shook his head. With his and Ying Zheng's identities, it is naturally impossible to go out to meet Wang Wan directly. Even though Wang Wan has abdicated, he still attracts attention in Xianyang City.

Therefore, Zhao Che had already booked a seat at the tea house not far from the prime minister's mansion.

Yu Huatian, who had changed into civilian clothes, immediately walked towards Wang Wan after receiving the order.

"Wang Xiang, long time no see!"

Yu Huatian took the initiative to step forward and salute Wang Wan.

"It turned out to be the commander of Jinyiwei!"

Seeing Yuhuatian, Wang Wan immediately smiled and waved her hands.

Some unpleasant things happened to the two of them in court before, not to mention that he suffered such a big loss in Jingyang last time.

But that was all in the past. Wang Wan's mentality has changed now. Anyway, he is about to leave the Great Qin Dynasty Hall, and even if the tide in this court hall is raging, it will have nothing to do with him.

As for the previous conflicts and turmoil, let him drift away with the wind and just laugh it off.

"The old man is ashamed of the former emperor, and now he has resigned from the position of Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty. The commander can just call the old man directly."

Hearing Wang Wan's words, Yuhuatian didn't have much mood swings.

"By the order of the master and the master, please meet the king!"

Hearing Yuhuatian's words, Wang Wan's body trembled.

"Have both the late Emperor and the Champion come?"

Wang Wan didn't feel so happy because of this, on the contrary, she still felt a little uneasy.

After all, he is an old man who has resigned from the prime minister, logically speaking, he should have lost any value in front of Ying Zheng and Zhao Che.

Moreover, whether it is Ying Zheng or Zhao Che, in fact, they have very ordinary feelings towards Wang Wan. After all, Wang Wan's political views are very unfavorable to Da Qin in the eyes of the two, otherwise he would not have lost so completely. .

"Prince Wang, don't keep the master and master waiting for too long!"

Seeing Wang Wan standing there meditating, Yu Huatian couldn't help but remind her.

"I'm sorry Commander, please take this old man there."

Wang Wan sighed and didn't say anything after all.

As a great Confucianist, Wang Wan naturally attaches great importance to the ethics of the monarch and his ministers. As the saying goes, the monarch wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die. Therefore, he can only accept the consequences he is about to face, whether he wants to or not.

Soon, Yu Huatian brought Wang Wan to the teahouse, where Ying Zheng and Zhao Che had been waiting for a long time in the private room.

"Criminal Wang Wan, pay homage to the former emperor, and meet the champion!"

"What does Wang Qing mean by this, and why are you guilty?"

Ying Zheng said with a smile.

"Your servant failed to fulfill the order of the late emperor, and failed to assist His Majesty, so naturally he deserves death!"

"Aiqing is serious, and Fusu has grown up, so he naturally has his own ideas. How can I force Fusu's growth on Aiqing alone."

Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hands, Zhao Che had already poured a cup of tea for Wang Wan.

"Aiqing, take your seat. I'm here today. I just heard that Aiqing is about to leave Xianyang, so I came here to see you off."

Ying Zheng signaled Wang Wan to sit down and continued.

"The widow has now passed the throne to Fusu, and Aiqing has also stepped down as the prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty. Today, there is no distinction between monarch and minister. It is a banquet between our friends."

Ying Zheng no longer called himself a widow, but said "we", which proved that he was indeed unwilling to call each other with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.

"Thank you, late emperor!"

Wang Wan bowed her hands and sat down.

Now that he is a commoner, he is naturally no longer qualified to sit with Ying Zheng.

"I don't know what plans Wang Xiang has in the future?"

After Wang Wan sat down, Zhao Che brought a cup of tea and put it in front of Wang Wan, and then asked.

"Champion Hou Zhesha is old. I am no longer the Prime Minister of Qin Dynasty. Champion Hou should stop calling me Wang Xiang. If others listen to it, there will inevitably be more discussions."

Wang Wan corrected Zhao Che's address.

"It's okay, it's okay, Wang Qing has done a lot to me, Daqin, how can troubles arise because of such a trivial matter."

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said something.

"What is Wang Lao's plan in the future?"

Zhao Che smiled, Ying Zheng's words were purely polite, so naturally he couldn't take them seriously, so he changed his address by the way.

"Returning to the champion, the old man has nothing in his life, and he has worked hard for half his life without achieving anything. Now that the old man is old, he plans to go back to his hometown and live in seclusion in the fields for the rest of his life."

Wang Wan answered in silence for a while.

"Old Wang is full of knowledge, it would be a pity to waste it in the mountains like this."

Zhao Che said with a sigh.

"My son is too famous. What I have learned all my life is destined to be abandoned by the new era. Daqin is booming now, and all it needs are new talents. People like Laoji will actually slow down Daqin's footsteps."

Hearing Wang Wan's words, Zhao Che was suddenly a little dazed. The development of the times will inevitably abandon some things and some people.

But some things need to be passed on from generation to generation, and have a long history.

Is Wang Wan a talent?That must be, otherwise he would not have been the Right Prime Minister of Daqin for so long.

People like Wang Wan, Feng Quji, and Chun Yuyue are standard Confucian scholars.

It is true that some Confucian thoughts are too imprisoned and corrupt, but the root thought of Confucianism has a long history. No matter how many dynasties have changed, the status of Confucian saints has never changed.

Confucianism has also been passed down and improved from generation to generation, and has been engraved into the bones of every Chinese.

The fundamental reason why Wang Wan was abandoned by Da Qin was that he was too superstitious about Confucianism, which led to stagnation in his own thinking, and he was unwilling to accept new ideas and concepts, so he was no longer suitable for the current development of Da Qin.

To put it simply, Wang Wan is already old, he does not have the ability and thinking to accept new things like a young man, nor is he dissatisfied with following the rules and pioneering concepts like Li Si.

It is not like Meng Yi, Wang Ben and others who have absolute trust and loyalty to Yingzheng. In the final analysis, what Wang Wan is loyal to is only his Confucianism, and what he practices is only the ideology of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, not just loyalty to a monarch.

But does a person like Wang Wan really have no advantages at all?Obviously not.

In later generations, Confucian scholars in the pre-Qin period were hailed as models of true gentlemen.

Because their thinking is very simple, there are no powerful clans like the Han and Tang Dynasties, and there are no sour Confucians who have been brainwashed and corrupted.

Confucian scholars in the pre-Qin period were capable of writing and martial arts, governing the country and fighting, but in later generations, Confucianism has almost become synonymous with sour Confucianism and corruption.

Therefore, placing a person like Wang Wan in later generations can almost be said to be a model like a contemporary saint.

Naturally, Zhao Che would not let such a talent be given up because of such a small matter.

Wang Wan may not be suitable for the current Great Qin Dynasty, because the Great Qin Dynasty needs the injection of fresh blood, and also needs to eliminate a group of talents who cannot be satisfied with the current progress of Great Qin.
