Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 226 Li Xin
Zhou Yan and the others on the other side were also worried at this time. Seeing that Zhao Qingrui was becoming more and more powerful in the court, they had to do something more.

Those people in the harem are not favored, and even the sons born with them will not be favored.

Now that His Majesty looks so young, he must not die so soon, or abdicate, they can make preparations again.

It's just that they are not young anymore, and now they must seriously train their juniors.

"Sigh, I don't know what method His Majesty used to grow young. It would be great if I knew about it." One of the Confucian scholars' eyes was burning.

The First Emperor's Yingzheng was like a big mountain pressing on everyone's heads. Seeing that the mountain was about to fall, when the time came to help Mr. Su succeed to the throne, it would be the world of their Confucian scholars.

However, since Zhao Qingrui appeared, His Majesty began to get better strangely. It's no wonder he was happy when his wish came to nothing.

The man's words immediately made the surroundings quiet. Over the past year, they also secretly inquired a lot, but they didn't get any news.

Longevity, this is what countless of them long for, and they are also afraid of death.

"I don't know if His Majesty really found the immortal, but unfortunately the people I sent out didn't find any clues." Zhou Yan sighed.

"Forget it, His Majesty's current situation has also made his prestige even higher. The remnants of the six kingdoms dare not act rashly anymore. Now there is no other way but to support another son to come up." Zhou Yan said solemnly .

"It just so happens that my daughter is at the right age." One of the Confucian scholars stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What if His Majesty disagrees with this matter? Or the princess is making things difficult for her." Zhou Yan was relatively calm at this moment. His eldest daughter was married, and there were several younger daughters, but they were all too young.

"No, although His Majesty doesn't value beauty, he still cares about the affairs of the harem."

"That's right, Your Majesty is young and strong now, and it has been several years since he sent a woman to the palace. The beauties in the harem are also getting old, and it's time to bring in some newcomers."

"Extremely so."

One by one, they were still dreaming sweet dreams. Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other after receiving the finished reading, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Feng Xiang, why do you think they are messing around? Isn't the situation obvious enough?" Li Si put down the note, his voice helpless.

"Probably not reconciled." Feng Quji said calmly, not paying attention to these jumping clowns at all.

"Tossing around, with this time, why not think about how to improve your political performance and climb up." Li Si shook his head and chuckled.

"Insufficient ability, I can only think of other shortcuts to keep my glory and wealth."

After talking and joking, the two stopped paying attention to this matter after recording the memorial. Anyway, His Majesty is unwilling, and those Confucian scholars and old Qin nobles are just making a fuss for nothing.

At the court meeting on the second day, Ying Zheng sat at the head. He has been thinking about one thing these days, that is, conscription. Daqin now has more than 100 million soldiers.

However, he is ready to expand outwards, and Daqin's million warriors are still not enough.

"I'm going to expand the army, and I'm going to discuss conscription today." Ying Zheng glanced at the people below, and he didn't care about those people's plans to send people to the harem.

"Your Majesty, no, my Great Qin has settled down. The Great Qin already has millions of warriors. These millions of warriors are already a big enough burden for the court. If there are signs, the treasury will definitely not be able to support so many people." Zhou Yan Be the first to speak out.

His scalp is numb. Well, when Daqin was unstable, they had submitted several disarmament memorials, and His Majesty was also moved.

However, since Zhao Qingrui came back, Daqin has developed rapidly from a strange angle, and their plan naturally fell through.

Daqin Chongwu, Confucian scholars like them, relied on helping Mr. Su before, so that they have more right to speak.

Now that Zhao Qingrui is in charge of the court affairs, their rights have been compressed even more.

But now, His Majesty wants to recruit troops. Originally, Daqin's military strength is already strong enough, and those generals put great pressure on them, the civil servants.

Now there is still a conscription, which is simply not giving these civil servants a way to survive.

"Your Majesty, my ministers seconded the proposal. Now that the Great Qin River is Qinghaiyan, why do we need to conscript soldiers." The person who spoke was an old Qin nobleman.

Those who are still in the court today are all with real skills.

However, more than half of them have been cleared out, leaving them with little right to speak in the court.

There are a lot of newcomers in the court, which makes them feel a great sense of crisis, but they can't stop such changes at all.

The situation in the army is even more special. Now Daqin has a lot of generals available. These people have a detached status in the court. If there is still a conscription, they can hardly imagine what Daqin will become.

"I am going to attack the Xiongnu." Ying Zheng said lightly, but his words were like a heavy bomb, which made most people in the court dizzy.

The military generals were ecstatic. Daqin has not had a war for more than ten years, and the status of civil servants gradually surpassed them.

Without military merit, it is basically impossible for them to be promoted.

Now that His Majesty is going to conquer the Huns, this is an opportunity for them to make meritorious deeds.

"Your Majesty, the Xiongnu have been rampant these years. They have repeatedly violated our Great Qin border and killed and robbed the head of the Great Qin. I am willing to lead the army to crush the Xiongnu." Li Xin stood up and shouted.

Since the defeat of Chu, Li Xin has basically lost the favor of the first emperor, and his status in the court is not as good as before. He is eager to change his situation.

Unfortunately, he never had the chance.

Now that His Majesty is going to conquer the Huns, Li Xin is excited all over.

"General Li, even if the emperor wants to conquer the Xiongnu, it's not now. Why are you in a hurry." Zhao Qingrui looked at Li Xin with a smile.

Li Xin is also a rare famous general in the Great Qin Dynasty, but after he was defeated when he defeated Chu, he also became decadent for a while, and he became more low-key in the court.

After she managed the affairs of the court, she also knew a lot about Li Xin. He is not a person who likes to make great achievements, although he is suspected of underestimating the enemy.

At the beginning, the Qin army led by Li Xin and Meng Tian defeated the Chu army in the south and southeast of Yingchen, and was about to take advantage of the victory to attack Shouchun, the capital of Chu State. , captured Yingchen, cut off the back of Li Xinjun, and made the Qin army attacking Chu fall into the plight of being attacked by the enemy.

Therefore, Li Xinjun had to stop attacking Chu, and returned to attack Yingchen. As a result, he was flanked by the Chu army back and forth, and finally returned in a big defeat.

In general, Li Xin's defeat in the war, and Lord Changping's rebellion against Qin also accounted for a large factor.
