Four Seas Return Palace.
In the royal court, the abolition of the enfeoffment and the establishment of prefectures and counties were already a foregone conclusion. No matter how unwilling Ying Lin and the others were, they were unable to change the outcome. But now, even if he couldn't enfeoffment, he had to get more rewards!!
Following this, Ying Lin said," Your Majesty, enfeoffment is not beneficial to Your Majesty's management of Great Qin. If Your Majesty wants to abolish enfeoffment and establish prefectures and counties, I have no objections.”How could there be no objections? However, he knew that the situation was already hopeless. Even if he had objections, there was nothing he could do. Therefore, he could only express some other thoughts in a roundabout manner.
"However, Great Qin has always been fair in its rewards and punishments. Now that Great Qin has swept through the six countries and unified the world, it wants to reward people according to their achievements. If we give up on the enfeoffment, how will Your Majesty reward those who have contributed? If he didn't reward them, wouldn't it disappoint the meritorious officials?! If that was the case, wouldn't he go back on his words and burn the bridge after crossing the river?!”
Ying Lin's words were sincere, and every word he said was for Great Qin's meritorious service. In fact, it was just to fight for greater benefits for himself! At the same time, it was also a method to win people's hearts.
It was true that Great Qin had been able to unify the six countries because of those meritorious officials, so they needed to be rewarded according to their contributions. As for how to reward him, Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng had yet to make up his mind. Firstly, enfeoffment was absolutely impossible! Secondly, it was impossible not to reward him! After all, the reason why Great Qin was where it was today was largely due to its clear system of rewards and punishments!!
Therefore, he had to reward them. However, how to reward them was a difficult problem. They could not disappoint the meritorious officials, nor could they disperse the imperial power and threaten his authority!!
However, even if he had not made up his mind, he had already made up his mind to abolish the enfeoffment and establish a county. As for the reward, he would think about it later.
However, he couldn't let those people know. Then, Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng said,""Don't worry, Uncle Wang. It's Great Qin's tradition to reward those who have done well and punish those who have done wrong. I naturally won't go back on my words and disappoint Great Qin's meritorious officials.”Then, he stared coldly at the officials below and continued,"However, it's impossible for him to be conferred the title of Marquis!”
"As for how to reward meritorious officials, I naturally know what I should think about at that time. There's no need for Uncle Wang to worry.”
Since he had already said this, what else could he say?! There was no need to say anything. This was the general trend.
After saying something else, there was nothing important and they left.
After the court session ended, Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, returned to the Qilin Palace. After the court session, the ministers began to walk out of the hall.
Meng Yi put an arm around his brother Meng Tian and asked,""Big brother, what were you talking about with Old General Wang and the others?!”
Meng Tian also knew that before His Majesty came, the four of them had some strange behavior that had aroused everyone's suspicion. After all, everyone in Great Qin knew that he and Li Si did not get along! They had suddenly hooked up with each other, including Old General Wang and the state lieutenant. Anyone would be curious, let alone his own brother.!
Meng Tian and her younger brother Meng Yi had always had a good relationship. They talked about everything. The two of them knew each other very well. Meng Yi must have noticed that something was wrong with him after he woke up today. In addition to the secret conversation he had with Old General Wang, the state lieutenant, Li Si, and the others, his younger brother would definitely ask about it. However, she couldn't say it and didn't want to lie to her younger brother. This was really…
Tsk, irritated!
Looking at Meng Yi, whose face was filled with curiosity and thirst for knowledge, Meng Tian said hesitantly,""Second brother, I'll talk to Old General Wang and the others about the dream I had last night.”Just saying that it was a dream and not revealing the space, the system, and the answer to the question was not considered revealing, and he did not lie to his brother. Perfect!
What?
Four men talking about their dreams?!
What was going on? Is there something wrong with that?
No, I say, big brother, it's fine if you don't want to say it. You don't have to make up such an excuse and tell such a blind lie to brush him off, right?!
In short, Meng Yi, who had heard Meng Tian's explanation, looked at his elder brother with a strange gaze. That gaze made Meng Tian's heart tremble!!
Just as Meng Yi was about to say something, a chamberlain walked over and said to Meng Tian and his brother,""Greetings, Milords. Lady Meng Tian, His Majesty is looking for you."
"I understand. I'll go over now."”After saying that, he looked at his younger brother and said,"Second brother, you can go back first."
Meng Yi nodded and did not ask about the dream that Meng Tian had mentioned.
Other than Meng Tian, Wei Liaozi, Wang Jian, and Li Si also encountered the same situation.
Qilin Palace.
By the time Meng Tian entered, Wang Jian and the other two had already arrived. He was the last one. After entering, Meng Tian looked at Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, who was sitting high up in the seat of honor. She bowed and said,""Greetings, Your Majesty."
Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, said,"Stand up and sit."”
"Here."
After Meng Tian sat down, Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, waved his hand and ordered everyone in the hall to leave except for them, including those from the Black Ice Platform who were hiding in the dark.
When only the five of them were left in the hall, Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng said,""Did all of you have a good dream yesterday?!”Just in case, Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, did not say any key words. For example, the space, the system, and so on. It was just a vague description that only they knew.
Old General Wang Jian was the first to speak."Your Majesty, this old minister did have a mysterious dream yesterday.”
Li Si, Wei Liaozi, and Meng Tian said,"I am the same.”
Immediately after, Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, took out something from the box on the desk and showed it to everyone present.
"Potato!"
When they saw the item in Ying Zheng's hand, Wang Jian and the others exclaimed in unison.
Immediately after, Wang Jian opened his mouth and asked,"Your Majesty, this potato…"
Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, touched the outer skin of the potato with his thumb and said,""This item appeared on my bed when I woke up today.”
Fortunately, they all knew that this thing was produced by the system. Otherwise, if something had appeared on the bed of Emperor Qin, then all the servants in the palace and outside the palace last night could die!!
After all, to be able to quietly place the item on the bed of Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, without being discovered, meant that he could also kill Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, without anyone noticing!! This kind of situation was what those in power feared the most!!
However, the system was different. After all, that thing had completely surpassed their understanding. Moreover, Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, did not think that the creature had any intention of harming them. After all, with its ability, it should be easy for it to kill them, right?!
Of course not!
The system could bring them into the space silently, but it could not kill them silently. This was because they were all people with great luck. They had a very high weight in this world. If they were killed, it would cause a huge mess. Even the system itself would be destroyed by the world! So... Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng, and the others were wrong. The system was not that powerful!!
However, the system could not let them know. If that happened, it would lose its deterrence!!
