Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 304 Wei Liao's Continuous Layout ([-]rd update)

In Xianyang, the capital of the empire, there were crowds of people in front of every business and shop, and there were high-spirited discussions in every restaurant and restaurant. The entire Xianyang people fell into an unprecedented carnival.

In Xianyang under the night, a night market was also set up in the dim lights, and social fires were launched, and even the peasants who were ordered to work gathered to drink and enjoy themselves.

This is the most elated moment for the old Qin people in the past few years. The simple and industrious old Qin people naturally want to have a good time.

In the past two days, Xianyang, the capital of the emperor, has suddenly become more prosperous, full of people, more popular than usual, and much more comfortable.

This is a hearty battle, bringing changes that no one can ignore.

……

"Prime Minister, there are three elders outside the mansion asking for orders—" The officials of the Prime Minister's Mansion came in a hurry and told Ziying about the situation outside the door.

"Third Elder, ask for orders?"

Ziying, who was lying on the long case, stood up suddenly, glanced at the official, waved his hand, and said, "Wang Xie, do you know what's going on?"

"Prime Minister, I didn't ask any more questions." At this point, Wang Xie changed the subject and said, "However, I think that the presence of the three elders will definitely win your Majesty's victory."

"Ah."

Nodding slightly, Ziying knew that this was the most likely explanation.After pondering for a moment, he said: "Please come in the three elders, I will meet you!"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, Wang Xie strode away.

"Old man, I have seen the Prime Minister!" Three gray-haired old men walked into the hall and saluted Ziying.

Ziying returned a salute to the third elder: "I don't know why the third elder has come?"

The three elders looked at each other, and the old man in the middle took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve and handed it to Ziying, saying: "Prime Minister, Your Majesty has won a big victory over Long Qi, washing away the decadence of the Great Qin Empire."

"Because of emotion and reason, we should hold a "big feast" to comfort the hearts of the Chinese people to celebrate."

"Holding a banquet?"

After muttering something, Ziying pondered for a moment, and read the handwriting on the bamboo slips one by one.On this bamboo slip, more than three hundred people in their 70s wrote to the Prime Minister's Mansion, requesting to hold a "big feast" to comfort the hearts of the Chinese people to celebrate.

"Okay!" Nodding his head, Ziying said, "Your Majesty has won a big victory, congratulations, the old man agreed—!"

Ziying knew that at this point in the matter, it was no longer a question of whether he would agree or not.The enthusiasm of the Chinese people is like fire, even if he doesn't add fuel to the flames, he can't hold back.

This must be agreed.

Because holding the big banquet can better mobilize the emotions of the old Qin people, and restore the vitality and indomitable progress in the Great Qin Empire.

"Farewell—"

The goal was achieved, and the three elders did not linger too much, and bid farewell to Ziying one after another.For this, Ziying did not retain.

He knew that the so-called Dajiu meant that the state treasury or private households paid for it, and the whole country feasted and celebrated.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was the largest grand event celebration in a country, and few countries could hold it.Now that the Great Qin Empire is fragmented, it shouldn't be like this.

It's just that the hearts of the soldiers and the people of the Great Qin Empire were a little depressed. This time, Emperor Hu Hai of the Qin Dynasty came out smoothly, and when he encountered such a great event that pleased the people of the country, people naturally thought of celebrating it.

Thoughts flickered in his mind, Ziying pondered for a moment, and said, "Dian Ke, do you think we should drink?"

"This matter is unavoidable." He smiled weakly and said, "Your Majesty won a big victory, the dragon died in battle, and half of Hedong County fell into the hands of Daqin. No matter from which aspect, we should be ashamed."

"The bad thing is that the Great Qin Empire is now in a corner, and its strength is low..."

"What do you mean by everything? Obviously it is impossible. Although His Majesty won the battle, don't you all know the current situation of the Great Qin Empire?"

Wei Liao's expression was very serious: "It's okay to be happy, such a slight victory and the whole country is overwhelmed? The old Qin people must be vigilant and introspective, otherwise they will suffer a big loss."

What Wei Liao said is not wrong, although Dajiu can improve the morale of the people of the country and the army.But to a certain extent, it is detrimental to the country if it wastes money and people.

It's just that Ziying has already agreed, and the court must never fail to keep its word.Therefore, from Wei Liao's point of view, Dajiu must continue and must not hurt the hearts of the people.

After being silent for a long time, Wei Liao said in a low voice, "Let's make a big drink first, and then the Prime Minister's Office will issue an order afterwards, and we must warn you one or two."

"The people's spirit is the foundation of the country. When the people's spirit is right, the country is strong and prosperous, and if the people's spirit is weak, the country is weak. The defeat of Western Chu is due to the power of your majesty. It is certainly gratifying and congratulatory, but why should it be a shame?"

"Our land in Shandong has not yet been restored, and the shame of the country has not yet been revealed. All Chinese people must be vigilant and self-examine before they can avenge their shame and strive for strength. The second year of Qin II was in June of the fifth year."

Ziying didn't object to Wei Liao's words.He also knew that the Great Qin Empire at this time was too fragile to stand up to extravagance and waste.

If the Great Qin Empire wanted to be great in the world, it had to be diligent and thrifty in managing its family.Because they all know that the Great Qin Empire needs continuous wars to regain its lost land.

This means that the Great Qin Empire needs countless food and resources.But today's Great Qin Empire has nothing, just an empty shell.

"I will explain this matter as soon as possible!" Ziying nodded, and he had no doubts about Wei Liao's words.

Compared with others, Wei Liao has experienced the whole process of the first emperor's unification of the world.For the current Great Qin Empire, it must be more experienced.

In order for the Great Qin Empire to prosper in the world, Ziying did everything possible.

It's just that Wei Liao didn't care about these at all, he looked at the map in the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and put forward an astonishing opinion.

"Everyone, with the new defeat of Western Chu, the most difficult time for the Great Qin Empire is coming. If it is not properly prepared, the future of the Great Qin Empire will be extremely difficult."

Wei Liao's eyes flickered, looked at everyone present, paused every word, and said: "The dragon will die in battle, Xichu will never let it go."

"With the temper of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, the army of Western Chu will come to the city after the affairs of Qi are over."

"This is also the reason why the old man agreed to go ahead with the big wine. If you can't unite the hearts of the old Qin people, the Great Qin Empire will be in danger this time."

……

Following Wei Liao's words, the atmosphere in the Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly became solidified.Because the deeds of Qin Emperor Hu Haidong were too horrifying, they were joyful and lacked vigilance.

Forgot that Xichu is not a small country, but the overlord of the Central Plains.Long Qi and Xiang Yu are siblings, and it has become a foregone conclusion that Xichu will send troops to Guanzhong.

"Prime Minister, grab the grain and grass immediately. This year, all the new wheat will be shipped to Hangu Pass and Hedong County. We must make adequate preparations before Xichu reacts."

Wei Liao pondered for a moment, then turned to the others, and said, "During the massacre, the city guards must ensure that there is no civil strife anywhere!"
