"Since all of you have requested it, it is enough to explain the fake filial piety of the Marquis of Shu. I agree with you!”
Listening to the righteous and supportive voices, Ying Rui clearly said two words at the end.
If he just wanted to teach that cheap third uncle a lesson, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. Taking care of him was equivalent to taking everything from him. He had to do it once and for all.
The most important factor was to avoid internal friction and gather the strength of the country to focus on leaving Hangu Pass.
"Your Majesty is wise. We will obey."
With the support of Wang He and a few others, the current situation was one-sided. The other civil and military officials could only stand on the spot and shout," Yes!"
"Everyone, retreat…"
After setting up the prerequisite to deal with the Marquis of Shu, Ying Rui gently waved his sleeves and took the lead to walk through a side path in the hall.
"We respectfully send you off, Your Majesty."
Then, the civil and military officials bowed and bowed respectfully.
"This Shu Hou, I'm afraid I've misjudged him. His Majesty is not a ruler that is easily fooled.”
Prime Minister Cai Ze thought that the Marquis of Shu's obvious intention to fight against Xianyang was very stupid. To be honest, he was just trying to create an excuse for the King.
"Next, how will the king deal with the Marquis of Shu?”
It was easy to teach a lesson, but difficult to deal with. Xiong Gu really wanted to know what kind of method the King, who had just officially ascended the throne, would use in the end.
Dealing with a direct descendant of the royal family, and one who was the king's elder, had yet to happen. One could imagine how difficult it would be.
"His Majesty probably wants to use the Marquis of Shu to establish his authority as a ruler. Moreover, he can also get rid of the hidden dangers within Great Qin.”
Even though he had yet to reach his later years, the current Wang Jian had the initial thoughts of the future and guessed the most likely one to appear.
After all, if the King wanted to make a grand plan, he had to stabilize Great Qin's internal structure and consolidate the factions in the Imperial Court.
That way, he would not have to worry about anything and continue to dominate the east.
"This year is really an eventful autumn…"
For a moment, the civil and military officials after the court session couldn't help but guess, secretly sighing that this year wasn't peaceful.
“………”
As the news of the Marquis of Shu spread, Wei Liao, who was carrying the golden dragon-shaped commander's seal, came to the main camp of the palace guards and found Meng Wu, who held an important position.
"Lord Wei, what's the matter?”
Seeing that it was an old official of the king, Meng Wu said very politely.
"General Meng, who should you be loyal to when you hold an important position in the palace guards?”
Wei Liao didn't take out his commander's seal, he was extremely calm as he asked.
"Naturally, it's the king alone."
He didn't understand why Wei Liao would ask this question, but Meng Wu's reaction wasn't slow either. The moment he answered, it was as fast as the day in the throne room.
When he returned to the mansion a few days ago, he had already communicated with his father, Meng Ao. No matter what choice he made, he could only pledge his loyalty to the king.
"Since that's the case, Meng Wu, come forward and receive the order. Pass on the king's order…"
Wei Liao finally spoke up after hearing the answer without hesitation.
The Hetao region was extremely important, as it was the main source of high-quality warhorses for Great Qin, so they naturally had to be careful.
"Meng Wu, listen up."
Upon hearing this, Meng Wu raised his hands in the direction of the palace and waited for the imperial order to continue.
"From today onwards, lead all 30,000 palace guards to secretly head to the border of the Hetao region and announce to the outside world that they are conducting military training.”
As he spoke, Wei Liao took out the commander's seal and explained the command that the king had once mentioned.
"Meng Wu will obey the king's orders!"
The king's order represented everything. As a soldier, Meng Wu did not ask anything and obeyed unconditionally.
The mobilization of thirty thousand palace guards was not a small matter. When they reached the border of the Hetao region, he believed that the king would personally send a new imperial order.
"Swoosh!"
After saying that, Meng Wu put his hands together and solemnly took the commander's seal from the palace guards.
The palace guards belonged to the king's direct line of command and were also one of the few elite troops in the world. Being able to command them was the honor of a soldier and also the invisible new appointment of the king.
"Then I'll leave it to General Meng. Go to the Hetao area and wait for orders. Don't reveal your true intentions.”
Wei Liao knew that he couldn't alert the grass plains forces that might come south, such as the Xiongnu. He didn't want to scare them away.
Since they wanted to invade Great Qin's borders, how could they not collect some interest?
Great Qin had never been a place where one could come and go as one pleased. The Xiongnu and the other Grassland factions could not choose for themselves.
"This is the duty of a subject. Lord Wei, please rest assured that the 30,000 palace guards have all arrived at the Hetao area. No one will find out the true situation.”
Feeling the cold touch from the commander's seal, which was actually the king's great trust, Meng Wu nodded heavily and promised without hesitation.
"I still have to report to the king later. Farewell, General Meng.”
"Lord Wei, please…"
Meng Wu didn't put on airs. On the contrary, he sent Wei Liao all the way to the entrance of the encampment.
"Pass on this general's order. All the palace guards are to gather urgently!”
Meng Wu, who had returned to the encampment after watching the King's representative Wei Liao leave, did not show any signs of sloppiness and immediately gave the order to assemble.
"General, General Meng!"
With that word, the 30,000 palace guards began to gather in an orderly manner.
Under the leadership of Meng Wu, they rushed to the border of the Hetao region day and night with the excuse of military training.
"Pass down the king's imperial order. The original wife has accompanied you for many years and has worked hard. She is usually virtuous and virtuous. Today, she is hereby conferred the title of the main princess.”
As it was deep in the palace, there were many strict rules for external officials. The person in charge of reading it was a female official.
"ChenQie thanks Your Majesty for the title."
After hearing the contents of the title, Zhao Ji's eyebrows moved, and her phoenix eyes were filled with unconcealable gratitude.
Even though her husband had become Great Qin's ruler and held great power, his status was above everyone else, but he still did not forget about her, who had a low background.
No matter how ordinary her husband's identity was, he was still a member of the Ying family's royal family, and she was just one of the tens of millions of people.
"Where is the king now?"
When she was outside, Lady Zhao had always addressed her husband as King. She smiled and asked.
"Replying to the queen, the king has just left court and is now going to the Redbud Palace where the young master lives.”
The other party was the queen of the main palace. The female official did not hide anything and answered truthfully.
" Let's go to the Redbud Palace…"
Upon hearing that her husband was going to visit Zheng 'er in the Perpetual Joy Palace Hall, Concubine Zhao gently tapped her tender neck and said with relief.
If her husband was dealing with court affairs, she would not disturb him.
If there was, it would only be when her husband was too busy to eat.
"Yes, Queen."
Accompanied by a few palace maids, Zhao Ji, who was filled with gratitude and joy, went straight to the Redbud Palace where her husband and eldest son were.
