"Li Qing, immediately draft an edict and order the First Prince Fusu to return to Xianyang to attend the funeral of the First Emperor.”
On the way back to Guanzhong Pass from the Sand Dune Palace, Ying Che sat in the carriage and slowly walked.
Under the current situation, regardless of whether his big brother, Fu Su, had any other intentions, the threat he posed was too great.
It was no exaggeration to say that it was like a potential time bomb that could not be ignored even if one wanted to.
"Here, Your Highness."
Li Si glanced at the crown prince from the corner of his eye and realized that he could not see anything. He could only suppress his doubts and reply.
"The Crown Prince's thoughts are really hard to fathom. Does he want to kill the First Prince or put him under house arrest in Xianyang?”
"At least for now, the Nineteenth Prince Huhai can't escape. Why do you want to go against the Crown Prince?”
While writing the edict, Li Si's heart skipped a beat as he guessed the two most likely scenarios.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, I have finished writing the edict to summon the First Prince back to Xianyang.”
Li Si put down the brush in his hand and placed the brocade cloth beside the wooden table.
“………”
There was still an important part of the imperial edict that was not added. Ying Che opened the exquisite brocade box on the side and took out the Imperial Seal that symbolized power.
The Imperial Jade Seal was four inches in circumference and had five dragons on it. It had a transcendent and mighty aura.
On the front, there were eight seal characters personally carved by Li Si, which meant that he was ordered by the heavens to live forever as an orthodox token of imperial power.
"The second emperor of Great Qin. Speaking of which, this old man can be considered an elder of two dynasties.”
Li Si's thoughts became even more active when he saw the distinct seal on the edict, which represented actual administrative power.
"Minister Li, immediately convey this message to Shangjun (now Suide, Shaanxi) and make sure it reaches the First Prince.”
Ying Che said calmly as he sensed Li Si's thoughts.
"Yes, I will definitely do a good job."
This was the first important administrative matter he received after he pledged his loyalty to the new emperor. It was related to the degree of appointment in the future.
Thus, Li Si, who understood the importance of this, responded firmly.
"Let me remind you that the real-time side mission has been completed halfway. You have achieved a complete victory in the change of sand dunes and killed the first historical figure.”
"I'm just one step away from stepping onto the path of an Emperor and becoming the second Emperor of Great Qin.”
It should be because they were close to Xianyang in Guanzhong, so the system deliberately let out an upgrade sound.
"The jade talisman that controls the entire Black Ice Platform and the chance to summon a peerless general. The combination of the two is enough to open up the early stages.”
Ying Che was naturally determined to get the generous reward for the first mission. It was also a crucial step that he had to take.
Then, he checked his personal interface and found that there were obvious changes in some places.

"Your Highness, General Zhang requests an audience.”
Outside the carriage, Chen Qingzhi, who was guarding the surroundings, asked for instructions.
"Xuan…"
Zhang Han was a pure soldier, and he didn't care about anything other than his duty as a guard. Ying Che wanted to hear about it.
"Here!"
"This subject greets Your Highness the Crown Prince."
After a short greeting, Zhang Han stepped into the carriage and bowed to Ying Che.
"Minister Zhang, please take a seat…"
"Thank you, Your Highness."
With special permission, Zhang Han sat down.
"Your Highness, the First Emperor passed away while he was on patrol. It's hard to guarantee that there are some people with ulterior motives…"
"I believe that we can send an army to control Hangu Pass and grasp the path to enter the pass.”
After considering the appropriate words, Zhang Han cupped his hands and explained clearly.
"It's rare for a military talent to have such vigilance.”
Hearing this, Ying Che lightly nodded his head. It was already not bad that he could think of so many things.
Zhang Han's military talent wasn't bad. If it wasn't for the Battle of Julu, he would have swept through the uprising armies and regained his power.
"The civil and military officials guarding Xianyang and the generals guarding Hangu Pass wouldn't dare to do this.”
As if everything was under his control, Ying Che wasn't surprised at all. Instead, he spoke casually.
"But, Your Highness the Crown Prince, you must be on guard!”
Zhang Han thought that the Crown Prince was being careless, so he hesitated for a moment before advising him.
This was a special period, so he didn't have to worry about anything else for now. Only by ascending to the throne would the change in the sand dune end.
"Anyone who dares to mess with the First Emperor's body is committing treason.”
It could be seen that Zhang Han was loyal, so Ying Che had no reason to be angry.
If any of the officials had gone mad, he would like to see who was so bold as to not mind uprooting them.
"I see…"
Hearing this, Zhang Han suddenly understood.
With the First Emperor's prestige, burial was the most important thing. No official would take the risk.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is far-sighted, this subject's suggestion is embarrassing.”
After understanding the cause of the whole incident, Zhang Han felt ashamed of his inferiority and felt like he was showing off in front of an expert.
It turned out that the Crown Prince had already come up with a plan to see through all the officials 'thoughts.
"Civil and military advice does not distinguish the level of the suggestion, only the military and political affairs.”
Ying Che merely waved his hand and said.
"Your Highness…"
Hearing that the Crown Prince was so open-minded, Zhang Han's feelings were even more different. He had the thought of supporting him to the death.
The Crown Prince was not cruel. He accepted the advice of his officials like the First Emperor.
"All troops, speed up the advance towards the pass and protect the First Emperor's body.”
Ying Che didn't feel proud of Zhang Han's change and ordered.
Everything had just begun…
"Here, Your Highness!"
And at this moment…
Just as Ying Che brought the First Emperor's body back to Xianyang for the funeral and made all the necessary arrangements, the Qin army in Lingnan received the news.
