Dressed in a green robe, Su Ying walked on the streets of Xianyang with a tall and straight posture, heading straight for Xianyang Palace. His waterfall-like tough and soft black hair was tied up with a green belt. His handsome and indifferent face and ethereal temperament attracted the shy gazes of many women, including many beautiful and noble women.
A little girl who looked to be in her teens and wore an exquisite silk dress stood on the street, staring at Su Ying. Her hair was so fine that it reached her waist.
When Su Ying left her line of sight, she came back to her senses. Behind her, there were guards who were sweating profusely.
"Miss, you snuck out again…"(Can you guess who she is?))
When they arrived outside Xianyang Palace, Su Ying took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant in front of the guards. This was given to him by Ying Zheng, and he could enter the palace at any time as long as he took out the jade pendant without any notice.
"Sir, please." The guards naturally recognized this jade pendant and hurriedly let it pass.
Su Ying put away the jade pendant and walked straight into the palace. When he arrived outside the palace, he saw Ge Nia standing outside with a sword. Ge Nia also saw him and nodded at him.
Su Ying walked to his side and looked into the hall."The king is inside?"
"Yes." Ge Nia nodded, then said nothing more. He was a man of few words.
Su Ying nodded and shouted inside,"Su Ying requests an audience."
"Come in." Ying Zheng's majestic voice came from the hall.
Su Ying pushed open the door and entered. What entered his eyes was the spacious hall and Ying Zheng, who was standing on a high platform with a pool of clear water between them. He was wearing a black dragon robe, sitting at a desk and reading the bamboo slips that were presented to him from all over the world.
"Your Majesty, the 723 Shadow Secret Guards have completed the mission to destroy Korea and have returned to Xianyang to await Your Majesty's orders.”Su Ying said to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slips and looked down at Su Ying, his eyes filled with admiration and satisfaction,""Good, Zi Ge, you've really given me a surprise this time. In just three months, you've trained so many elites, and with more than seven hundred people, you've captured all the Han people alive. In this war to destroy Han, you didn't waste a single soldier.”Ying Zheng stood up and walked down from the high platform." Tell me, how should I reward you?”
Hearing this, Su Ying's heart skipped a beat. He cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng and said,""Does Your Majesty really want to reward me?"
"That's right. Merits are rewarded, and wrongs are punished. You naturally have to be rewarded for your great contributions. Tell me." Ying Zheng walked to Su Ying's side with his hands behind his back, looked at him and said with a smile.
"I don't have anything I want. I just have a request."
"Oh? What request? Tell me." Ying Zheng looked at Su Ying and said.
"I like to read ancient books. Please allow me to read the Qin Country's library.”Su Ying looked at Ying Zheng and said.
"Just this request?" Ying Zheng looked at Su Ying in surprise.
"This one." Su Ying smiled at him.
Ying Zheng gave Su Ying a deep look, then nodded and said," Alright, I agree.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Ying cupped his fists and bowed to him.
"There's no need to be so polite." Ying Zheng turned around and said with his back facing Su Ying,""Zige, how do you think the Shadow Secret Guard should develop? And who should be the most secure to control it?”
"When I proposed to establish the Shadow Secret Guard, I had already told the king that this secret organization that gathers assassination, protection, reconnaissance, and intelligence gathering can only be controlled by the king himself. It will only serve the king and listen to the king's orders. The king can choose a suitable and loyal general to lead.”Su Ying looked at Ying Zheng and said," As for the members of the Shadow Secret Guards, every year, the best batch of people will be selected from the various military branches and trained by the commander. When necessary, I will also assist them from the side.”Su Ying looked at Ying Zheng, who had his back facing him, and said with a serious look on his handsome and indifferent face.
Ying Zheng's eyes, which were facing away from Su Ying, showed a hint of satisfaction.
"I'm very satisfied with Zige's consideration.”Ying Zheng turned around and looked at Su Ying as he spoke. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes.
He could tell from Su Ying's words that he did not have the ambition to control the Shadow Secret Guards, which was exactly what Ying Zheng wanted to see.
"Right now, the Shadow Secret Guard is like a sapling, still very young and inexperienced. There are no suitable candidates in the army, so it's safer for you to be in charge.”Ying Zheng looked at Su Ying and said.
"If you want to take over temporarily, that's fine." Su Ying thought for a moment, then nodded to Ying Zheng. "I have something to discuss with the king when I enter the palace this time.”
"Oh? What's the matter?" Ying Zheng asked.
Su Ying took out a scroll from his bosom and handed it to Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng opened the scroll and looked at the horseshoe-shaped picture drawn on the scroll with a suspicious expression.
"What is this?" Ying Zheng looked at Su Ying and asked.
Su Ying smiled." This item is called a horseshoe. It can be nailed to the hooves of a warhorse and can greatly increase the durability of the hooves.”
Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with surprise as he asked Su Ying anxiously,""Do you have any real items?"
"Not yet, but if it's handed over to the Armament Department, it will be completed in half a day.”Su Ying laughed.
"Come, follow me to the Armament Department."
After that, the Armament Department made four horseshoes according to the blueprint provided by Su Ying. After nailing them to a warhorse, although they could not see the changes for the time being, everyone present was far-sighted and could see the huge value that these small iron pieces could bring.
The durability of a horse's hooves represented the durability of a warhorse, and the Qin Country had a strong cavalry. If they had enough warhorses, they would definitely have a huge advantage in the upcoming battle with the other five countries.
"This item is very useful to my Qin country. Li You, I order you to immediately gather the skilled craftsmen of the Armament Department to secretly manufacture and store a large number of this item.”Ying Zheng placed his hands behind his back and looked at Li You, the general of the Armament Department, as he said solemnly.
"If you complete it, it will be a great merit. If you can't complete it, you will be demoted and removed from your post.”
Hearing this, Li You's face turned cold. He cupped his fists at Ying Zheng and replied,""I will not disgrace the king's orders."
Su Ying nodded his head. The state of Qin's concentration of power was beneficial to Ying Zheng. In addition to the perfect and strict laws, the people of Qin were hardworking and hardworking, which made the state of Qin extremely efficient and had a low rate of mistakes.
"The Left Protector has also made a contribution by proposing to invent this object.”Ying Zheng looked at Su Ying and said.
Su Ying was startled, then cupped his fists at Ying Zheng and thanked him,""Thank you for your reward, Your Majesty."
