On the other side, the land of Wei's strategy of naturalization had already taken effect.
On this day, Prime Minister Wang Wan, who was in charge of this matter, entered the palace and reported this matter to Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, there has been progress in the plan to assimilate Wei.”
Wang Wan was dressed in the official clothes of the Qin Dynasty and stood below to report.
"Tell me in detail."
Ying Zheng sat on the throne, his eyes fixed on Wang Wan.
"Your Majesty, ever since the last meeting of the officials, many plans for naturalization have been discussed. After that day, the Qin country has fully implemented them.”
"We have also sent county governors and county captains to the four counties of the Wei Kingdom. Under the governance of these county governors and county captains, the Wei Kingdom has now been divided into dozens of counties.”
" After the officials of the Qin State took office, every time they went to a place, they would read out the 'Peace Strategy' written by the Imperial Censor, Li Si, to let the people of Wei know that from now on, Wei State has been destroyed and they are all Qin citizens.”
"Because the Qin army has strict military discipline and did not commit any offenses. Although the Wei people are still very resistant to our Qin country, they are still in peace.”
"As for obeying the laws of my Qin country and paying taxes to the Qin country, I have also slowly accepted it.”
Wang Wan stood below and told him everything that the Qin Country had done in the Wei Country.
"These are all due to your contributions to the plan. When discussing the matter of the Wei Kingdom, all officials who contributed to the plan will be rewarded with a promotion. In the future, if my Qin Kingdom destroys other countries, they will be dealt with according to the precedent of the Wei Kingdom.”
Ying Zheng thought for a moment, then directly rewarded him.
Officials should be rewarded for their contributions, not to mention that this was the only chance for them to offer advice.
"I thank Your Majesty on behalf of the officials."
Hearing this, Wang Wan was delighted and thanked Ying Zheng on behalf of all the officials.
"Get up."
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. From now on, the Wei Country belongs to our Qin Country.”
After Wang Wan got up, he congratulated Ying Zheng.
"This is nothing. We just destroyed a mere Wei Kingdom. It's not even the beginning.”
Sitting on the throne, Ying Zheng waved his hand lazily, seemingly not caring at all.
When Prime Minister Wang Wan saw this scene, his face could not help but be filled with helplessness.
If the previous kings of Qin destroyed a country, it would be a glory that could be publicized for their entire lives.
But looking at his Majesty Qin Wang, he didn't care at all.
"His Majesty's revenge is unfathomable.”
Wang Wan sighed in her heart.
"Perhaps this chaotic world that has been in chaos for hundreds of years can really end in Your Majesty's hands.”
Then, an unlikely thought flashed across Wang Wan's mind.
"Oh right, how's the construction of the galloping path going?”
After that, Ying Zheng asked Prime Minister Wang Wan.
Since Ying Zheng was a transmigrator, it was very likely that he would not build the Great Wall, which had consumed the country's strength and trapped the Qin State in the east, and was regarded as one of the Seven Wonders of the World by later generations.
However, he had to build both the galloping path and the spiritual canal.
The roads connected all parts of the Qin country.
Whether it was during a war, using it to transport troops, transport supplies, or to develop the Qin country's economy, it was an excellent project that benefited the country.
The six dynasties had yet to be swept away, and the world had yet to be unified.
Therefore, Ying Zheng had ordered the captives of the Wei Kingdom to build a galloping road.
It was the Eastern Avenue that started from Xianyang, went out of Hangu Pass, followed the Yellow River, passed through Dingtao, reached Linzi, and reached Chengshanjiao.
Of course, the places that this galloping path passed by were not the Qin country's territory.
Therefore, only the first half was built.
It connected the Qin and Wei countries.
Even so, once the construction was successful, it would completely connect the Wei and Qin countries together.
In the future, no matter which country the Qin country used to attack, they could use this road.
"Those Wei Country captives have already begun to build the road according to His Majesty's request. However, the construction of the road is a huge project.”
Soon after, Prime Minister Wang Wan reported.
"Looks like we won't need this road to attack the Yan, Han, and Zhao Kingdoms.”
Ying Zheng sighed.
"Oh right, Prime Minister, is the standard for building a galloping path twenty steps wide as I said?”
Then, Ying Zheng asked.
Twenty steps wide!
In the Qin Dynasty, one step was equivalent to 1.4 meters in the future.
Twenty steps wide, about thirty meters wide.
Before Ying Zheng crossed the road, even the widest two-way eight-lane road was only about thirty meters wide.
Therefore, the width of twenty steps was exactly the same as the width of the two-way eight-lane road in the future.
But according to what Ying Zheng knew, the roads built by the Qin Dynasty were wider than he had imagined.
This was recorded in the Biography of Jia Shan: "The Qin Dynasty traveled the world, reaching Yan and Qi in the east and Wu and Chu in the south. The road was fifty paces wide, and trees were planted thirty feet high. The outside of the road was heavily built, hidden with gold cones and planted with pine trees.”
In order to prevent the road from being too wide and wasting the national power, Ying Zheng had already instructed Prime Minister Wang Wan.
The width of the path was about twenty steps.
"Your Majesty, as you said, the road is indeed twenty steps wide.”
Prime Minister Wang Wan nodded.
"Alright, I understand. You can leave now.”
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
Seeing His Majesty drive him away, Wang Wan tactfully took his leave.
But what Ying Zheng did not expect was…
Wang Wan had just left when the Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate, Zhao Gao, hurriedly ran into the hall.
"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager Hua Yang and Empress Dowager Xia want you to see them.”
Zhao Gao reported to Ying Zheng.
"Grandmother Wang?"
Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng could not help but recall.
These two were naturally not his mother, but his grandmother.
One of them was his father, Qin Yiren, who was also the biological mother of King Zhuang Xiang of Qin. The other was his father's foster mother, the queen of his grandfather, King Xiaowen of Qin. She was doted on by King Xiaowen of Qin at that time.
Later on, he was persuaded by Lu Buwei to adopt his father, Qin Yiren, as his adopted son.
It was because of this that his father was able to become the King of Qin.
That was why he was the founding emperor of the Great Qin Empire. He called himself the emperor and was known as the ancient emperor of Huaxia.
The two Empress Dowager were his backers in the palace before he took over the government.
