Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 423 The ministers asked for advice, the old King Qin’s decision!

Just when Gai Nie had just returned to Xianyang, Ying Jun ordered the recruitment of Zhao people to build canals. The news spread quickly. Even the King of Qin who received the news was surprised when he heard about it.

After Zhao was destroyed, other countries became even more afraid of Qin, and they didn't know when war would break out again.

But why did Qilin'er suddenly start building canals at this time?
Still in the Kingdom of Zhao!
Why build water conservancy projects at this time?
The ministers standing below the main hall were also puzzled.

In their eyes, although the Zhao Kingdom was destroyed, there were still many Zhao people in the territory.

Even if they are all common people, there is still a hidden danger of rebellion. After all, most of the family members of these Zhao people died at the hands of their Qin soldiers. Who can guarantee that they have no hatred for the Qin people in their hearts.

Who can be sure that these Zhao people will not rebel?

The most direct way to prevent these hidden dangers is to execute all the people of Zhao State.

Only in this way can the land of Zhao State completely belong to Qin State.

But now Yingjun not only did not order the execution of these people, he even had to work hard to build water conservancy projects for these Zhao people. For the Qin State, it was tantamount to raising tigers.

"Your Majesty, I think that there is something wrong with His Highness the Crown Prince's actions!"

Below the main hall, Fan Sui stood up from the civil and military ranks of the Manchu Dynasty to object. When other ministers saw Prime Minister Fan standing up to object, they immediately followed suit and came out to object.

"Your Majesty, the water conservancy projects in Qin State have not been completed yet, but His Royal Highness is now starting to build water conservancy works in Zhao State. Such waste of people and money may cause trouble in Qin State!"

"I also feel that this matter is inappropriate. Your Majesty, our Qin State has just destroyed the Zhao State, and the morale of the soldiers has been greatly boosted. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince helps the Zhao people build water conservancy in the Zhao State, some of the soldiers in the army will definitely be displeased. It will chill people and even affect the morale of the army. If this same thing reaches the ears of the people of Qin, some troubles may arise."

"Yes, Your Majesty! The army has just destroyed the State of Zhao, and it is the time when we need to cultivate and reward ourselves. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince causes a civil uprising in the State of Zhao due to this matter, I am afraid that the State of Zhao will fall into chaos again. By then, the countries will certainly not Indifferent."

"This matter is serious. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

In the main hall, many officials stood up one after another.

In their eyes, the war between Qin and Zhao that lasted for hundreds of years had just ended, and the Qin State needed to recuperate. Prince Yingjun's actions were undoubtedly disrupting the overall situation. If this caused a civil uprising in Zhao State again, At that time, other countries will definitely take advantage of this to send troops to compete for Zhao's territory.

And those Zhao people will definitely unite with other countries to resist Qin and fight to the death with the Qin people.

"I would like to ask your Majesty to order the prince to be transferred back to Qin!"

"I would like to ask your Majesty to order the prince to be transferred back to Qin!"

"I would like to ask your Majesty to give an order..."

"..."

Throughout the hall, many civil servants asked for orders.

And Ying Ji, who was sitting in the main hall, looked at the ministers asking for orders below, but the expression on his face did not fluctuate at all. Even the ministers standing below could not tell that King Qin's views on this matter could only be continued. Keep begging.

"Hong Gong, what do you think this matter should be?"

King Qin was not in a hurry to answer the ministers headed by Fan Sui below. Instead, he looked at the old general Hegong standing at the front of the generals' queue and asked with a calm expression.

Duke Heng frowned slightly, and after thinking with a complex expression, he slowly walked out of the crowd, raised his hands and said, "Reporting to your Majesty, even though I am a warrior, I can't explain anything."

"But I feel that what the Crown Prince did is indeed inappropriate and he should be recalled to Xianyang!"

Just when everyone thought that Guild He was making excuses for Ying Jun, Duke He's answer immediately dumbfounded the ministers below.

What's the situation?
Fan Sui, who was standing just below, also looked surprised.

As far as he knew, Duke He had always been very optimistic about Yingjun, and even spoke for Yingjun many times in the court before.

But now he suddenly said that he wanted to recall Yingjun.

For a moment, Fan Sui couldn't help but glance at Mr. Hao standing next to him with his peripheral vision, his face full of confusion.The ministers below were also full of surprise, but King Qin sitting above him suddenly became gloomy.

Naturally, he heard other meanings from Mr. He's words.

Duke Heng fought for the Qin State for decades, and also trained many brave and capable generals for the Qin State, which can be said to be his due diligence.

But that's exactly what happened, no one knew Mr. He better than him.

This time, Lu Gongming asked him to recall Yingjun to Xianyang, but in fact he wanted to use this to preserve Yingjun.

There was a feud between Qin and Zhao that lasted for hundreds of years. The old Qin people had long hated these Zhao people to the core. Now Yingjun not only did not execute all those Zhao people, he even wanted to build water conservancy projects in Zhao State at the expense of people and money. , once the water conservancy construction is successful, the national power of Zhao will be greatly improved.

By then, who can know that these Zhao people will not take advantage of the situation to rebel against Qin?
At that time, Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an, in order to protect the overall situation of Qin State, did not hesitate to kill 20 prisoners of Zhao State, and even became famous for this battle. However, in the end, he felt guilty because of this and stopped leading troops.

Now, Yingjun has undoubtedly reached this point.

If those Zhao people were not put to death, it would definitely affect his prestige among the Qin army. It would even be related to whether he could control the overall situation of Qin in the future and succeed to the throne of Qin.

As the saying goes, kindness does not control soldiers!

But with Yingjun's character, he would not execute these Zhao people anyway.

Therefore, Duke He came forward to advise him to recall Yingjun to Xianyang. As long as he did not help Zhao Guo build water conservancy, Yingjun's various military exploits for Qin State and his high prestige in the army, even if he did not help Zhao Guo build water conservancy. Killing those people would not have much impact on Yingjun's future.

Thinking of this, King Qin glared at Mr. He who was standing below and couldn't help but cursed him as an old fox.

Now Duke Heng will undoubtedly let him decide whether to recall Yingjun to Xianyang!
After all, he was the one who agreed with Yingjun to lead the army to attack Zhao State, so naturally he should be the one to recall him now.

If Yingjun can come back, then he, as a father, will naturally feel relieved about Yingjun's future.

After thinking about this, King Qin finally made up his mind.

Now that Zhao State has been destroyed, the management of Zhao State can be left to other ministers, and Yingjun naturally does not need to stay in Zhao State.

But now his physical condition is getting worse and worse, and there is not much time left, so he will definitely not be able to protect Yingjun like this all the time.

What's more, Yingjun has now become the crown prince of Qin, and will be the one to inherit his throne and become the king of the country in the future.

We all have to face these things after all.

Besides, according to his understanding of Yingjun.

Yingjun is not the kind of person who does things without planning or thinking about the consequences.

This time, he must have his own ideas for making such a commotion in Zhao State.

It's just a ditch.

no big deal.

However, the faint smile accompanying King Qin gave the civil and military officials an illusion.

It seems that the King of Qin was very satisfied with what Duke Lu said and was determined to recall Yingjun to Xianyang.

Then everyone saw King Qin sigh again, as if he was disappointed with Ying Jun.

Even Duke Heng, who was standing below, couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart when he saw King Qin sighing.

And the many ministers who had handed over their hands to ask for orders seemed to be impatiently waiting for the King of Qin's order, and then they immediately said something about the king's wisdom.

"Pass this king's decree..."
