Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 342: The State of Qin cut off its flesh and changed its military system (please give me monthly votes for recommendation!)
The summer of the 28th year of Emperor Qin.

After completing the Chi Dao, Ying Zheng patrolled eastward, passed through Xinzheng, passed Ying, the capital of the old Chu state, and arrived in Shouchun.

Here, the main task along the way is to worship the mountains and rivers in order to rectify the name of the emperor.

The emperor of Zhou had a system, and non-emperors were not allowed to offer sacrifices to famous mountains and rivers in the world.

The Emperor of Zhou declined prematurely, and the famous mountains and rivers in the world had no one to worship him for a long time.

In Shouchun, the prime ministers Wang Wan, Qing Mengyi, Qing Wang Wu, and five officials Yang Mucong and Zhao Ying accompanied Ying Zheng to worship Xiangshui.

We haven't seen each other for a year, and Ying Zheng is much older than when we parted.

This was far beyond Fusu's expectations.

Only Zhao Gao knew that it was because of Li Si's death.

Li Si's death is undoubtedly a challenge to Ying Zheng.

When Ying Zheng first heard about the conspiracy and rumors, he was naturally angry. When faced with the obvious culprit Li You, he was naturally filled with hatred.

Ying Zheng made up his mind at that time, to kill Li You to calm everything down.

But when Li Si was forced to die, Ying Zheng was deeply shocked.

Ying Zheng noticed that in the court he built and managed, there was a strong force surrounding Fusu.

But when he came here and heard about Fusu's experience here, he became more sober.

What kind of existence is Fusu to him.

No one knows this feeling. Perhaps Li Yuan in history felt the same way.

However, Ying Zheng is not Li Yuan.

The power is always in his hands alone.

Ying Zheng knew very well that Fusu's head was filled with the empire.The fact that the son inherited his father's legacy is actually a great comfort to Ying Zheng.
Li Si has already left, if he backhands Fusu and Wang Wan for Li Si.

Then when the time comes, he will not only lose Li Si, but also Fusu and Wang Wan.

This is the emperor's balancing act, which always revolves around the emperor's core interests.

The turquoise Xiangshui River is white and flowing, surrounded by mountains.

The long silver belt is entangled between the mountains and rivers.

Ying Zheng stood in the bamboo pavilion on the top of the mountain, looking at the vast Xiangshui River in front of him.

In the dense forest around this bamboo pavilion, there are many monkeys and even great apes.

There are birds chirping in the mountain stream, and great apes and small monkeys even send out cries that tear apart the tranquility in the surrounding fields from time to time.

The sound of the water is mighty, the waves are constant, and the white waves are constantly beating against the gravel on both sides of the bank, sometimes bringing in a few small fish.

Under the calm water, an undercurrent surges.

Ying Zheng looked at the Xiang River with a heavy heart.He was starting to look older, and his temples were slightly stained white.

This makes Zhao Gao extremely cautious towards Ying Zheng.

On the contrary, compared to Ying Zheng, who showed his age, Zhao Gaoqing, wearing black uniforms, was still in high spirits, with a smile in his eyes, but he also gave people a sense of sharpness and invincibility.

Ying Zheng moved his eyes slightly, and Zhao Gao knew what Ying Zheng was thinking.Wherever Ying Zheng went, Zhao Gao followed him step by step, just like an obedient vicious dog.

At this moment, the visitor ordered to preach:

"Your Majesty, Lord Dongyang and Marquis Wu Cheng have arrived."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly.

Zhao Gao kept this scene in mind calmly.

Li Si's death is really unbelievable.

Who would have thought that Li Si, who had been a popular figure in front of His Majesty the Emperor for 20 years and had never made a single mistake. He would rather fight against the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty than fight by Ying Zheng's side, but in the end he died in a rumor.

And this rumor was brought up by the people of Chu.

Not only Zhao Gao was afraid of Li Si, but also the other ministers, after hearing the whole story, felt sad when they saw Dongyang Lord again.

When Zhao Gao saw Fusu, his eyes changed slightly.

It's fear...

"I am waiting to meet your Majesty."

Ying Zheng treated his subjects as strictly as ever, without any extra emotion on his face.

Ying Zheng didn't have a good impression of the two people in front of him. As soon as he saw them, he said mercilessly:
"Jingchu, troublesome."

Wang Wan's face has become extremely tense recently.Wang Wu also felt deeply that the pressure of being with the emperor had doubled recently.

The rumors involved more than just the Li family.

The Wang family is also rumored to be very vicious.

And Ying Zheng was so ruthless towards the prince and generals of the empire, which naturally made everyone present feel even more terrified.

Wang Wan's eyes were slightly gloomy. The prince was hostile to Li Si, so why did he involve the Wang family as well?

Wang Wan knew very well that what Ying Zheng hated most was for the courtiers to form cliques and call themselves one faction.

Now the Wang family and Fusu are openly tied together.It is only a matter of time before His Majesty attacks the Wang family.

When a tree grows too big, it needs to be pruned, otherwise the branches will be too big and more likely to attract wind.

Wang Wan looked at Fusu and had other plans in mind.

The prince wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

Get rid of both the baggage that is holding him back.

But what exactly is the purpose of doing this?

They cut off the left arm of their Wang family, and they did not hesitate to anger Ying Zheng and went to Li Si to cut off Ying Zheng's right arm. What was the purpose?

The wages of avarice is death.

The prince must have his reasons for doing this.

But now it seems that the prince's situation is more dangerous than theirs.

Ying Zheng looked angry:
"I watched the county governor report on the situation in various places. The Jingdi area is the most trouble-prone area."

Wang Ben first said:

"Your Majesty forgive me."

Fusu didn't expect that Ying Zheng would give them such a command as soon as he saw them.

Fusu was afraid that this was just a ploy by Ying Zheng to deceive them.

After all, Fusu firmly believed that the current strength of the old Qin State was not enough to find out the whole story.Moreover, Fusu deliberately arranged for Xia Hei to do things very cleanly.

By the time Chi Wu came back to take up his post, the matter had been settled.

Therefore, Fusu concluded that Ying Zheng was not sure what role he played in this matter.

In fact, he couldn't find out clearly.

So, he was dissatisfied with losing Li Si.

Speaking of which, Li Si's achievements are clearly written in the history books, so he can completely replace him.

Fusu looked calm.

At critical moments, we still have to rest on our laurels.

In contrast, Wang Ben looked terrified.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, it is the minister who has failed His Majesty's expectations. It is the minister who is incompetent and failed to solve the troubles of Jingchu as soon as possible, which made the Emperor worry. Please punish the Emperor."

The man in front of Wang Ben had a terrifyingly cold face.

"Although the three counties are small, I have given you a hundred thousand troops to garrison in the border areas. I heard that it is not just the head of Jingchu and Guizhou who is uneasy. Something happens to these one hundred thousand troops from time to time."

Wang Ben felt nervous after hearing this.

"Our Qin army is very hierarchical and has been promoted based on military merit. Now it has been without troops for three years and the world is stable. Lieutenants in the army are not allowed to be promoted and the morale of the army is unstable. Now the army of [-] is in a foreign land. They miss their hometown more than ever and are also susceptible to diseases. There was also a plague in the army, which killed and injured many generals. I ask your Majesty to take precautions and deal with this matter as soon as possible."

Hearing Wang Ben say this himself, Ying Zheng knew that it was time for his Qin State to have its flesh cut off.
