"Zhao Gao!"
"This servant is here!"
"If there are any more reports, pile them all up here. At the same time, check the officials. There have been Naxi people moving around these days.”
"Here!"
Hearing this, Zhao Gao's heart was greatly shocked. He knew that the State of Qin was about to be shaken, but he still obediently retreated without any hesitation.
"I wonder if the Ying lineage will participate. If they do, then don't blame me.”
Ying Zheng muttered to himself. In the past, he had actually planned to take it slow, but the lucky draw yesterday and those people from the Muke Pavilion had made him decide to act now.
They would first clear out these nobles. When Li Si entered the court, there would still be seats for them.
At that time, the Qin Country could unify the war earlier.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Just as Ying Zheng was deep in thought, Concubine Yan walked in, escorted by a group of palace maids. She looked exceptionally dignified as she walked in. She was wearing a black phoenix robe with gold inlaid on it.
Just like she said, she was very strict in terms of temperament.
"Okay, get up!"
"Concubine Yan, come here."
As Concubine Yan's name had not been given yet, Ying Zheng did not address her as his beloved concubine, but calling her by her name was more intimate.
"Here!"
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Concubine Yan was overjoyed. Then, under the watchful eyes of the people around her, she stood up, walked to Ying Zheng's side, and sat down.
"Your Majesty, I heard them say that you were waiting for this concubine's breakfast?”
Concubine Yan, who had just become a wife, was leaning against Ying Zheng, so she was naturally very dependent on him. As soon as she sat down, she fell into his arms.
"Haha, this king wants to eat with you!”
"Someone, bring the food up!”
He pinched Concubine Yan's cheeks, which were bouncy and smooth. Then, Ying Zheng asked the palace maids to bring breakfast up.
Ying Zheng's breakfast was not as luxurious as he had imagined. Instead, it was plain and simple, with only rice and a few plates of side dishes.
[PS: It's a dish from the predecessor of Sichuan Cuisine. I'll baa.]
"Your Majesty, eat!"
She snuggled in Ying Zheng's arms, and even when she was eating, she didn't get up. Instead, she picked up the food and brought it to Ying Zheng's mouth.
"Alright, you eat too!"
"Yes!"
Because he had accepted Consort Yan as a person, Ying Zheng naturally did not reject her disgusting actions. Instead, he cooperated with her very well, which made him very different from before.
However, this change made Lady Yan extremely happy. After spending so much time with Ying Zheng, she knew that Ying Zheng disliked such things. Now that he was willing to cooperate with her, it was already a huge improvement.
After that, the two of them began to eat breakfast happily, and this silence was so peaceful that no one came to break it. After a while, Ying Zheng was bored to death as he read the memorials of the officials. Concubine Yan was beside him, watching him quietly as she served him tea.
Sometimes, life was just that simple. It wasn't exciting, but it was peaceful and ordinary.
However, this silence was finally broken by someone. Zhao Gao quickly walked into the front hall of the Palace of Lanchi, and then bowed to Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, General Wang Jian and General Meng Ao are requesting an audience outside the palace, saying that they have something important to see Your Majesty.”
"Hmm? Why are the two of them here?"
At this moment, Ying Zheng, who was admiring those officials who were talking about how bad the imperial examination was, could not help but ask after hearing Zhao Gao's words.
"Don't tell me you're also here to persuade this king to abolish the imperial examinations?”
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng frowned, as if he was thinking about something.
Meanwhile, Concubine Yan had been sitting obediently at the side, not saying a word or expressing her opinion.
She had placed herself in a very proper position. Ying Zheng was the sky, and Ying Zheng was the earth. Whatever she did or said, she had to think for her own man.
"Let them in."
In the end, Ying Zheng still agreed to their request for an audience. It was not because of their great power, but because of their loyalty to the Qin State, which made Ying Zheng feel at ease.
"Here!"
After hearing Ying Zheng's order, Zhao Gao immediately walked out to inform Wang Jian and Meng Ao.
"Generals, please!"
"Yes! Thank you, Eunuch Zhao."
"General Wang, there is no need to thank me. This is my duty. I hope that the two generals can help the king share his worries.”
Although Zhao Gao's words sounded very normal, he was secretly reminding the two of them that Ying Zheng was in a very troublesome situation now, and that they shouldn't get caught in the crossfire.
Zhao Gao, who often stayed by Ying Zheng's side, knew how much the King valued generals, so he naturally did not want to make things difficult for Ying Zheng.
"Naturally! I understand!"
Wang Jian and Meng Ao, who were both shrewd people, knew that they had received many letters from people today, asking them to submit a memorial together. However, both of them had rejected them.
You are short-sighted, this general is the one who rarely plays with you!
After that, the three of them walked into the Imperial Court. Ying Zheng's eyes were also fixed on the two of them. One of them was dressed in a light blue luxurious robe. He had a slightly muscular body, and his majestic steps were full of heroic spirit.
This person was Wang Jian, who had the reputation of being the bulldozer of the six dynasties in history.
The other person had a solemn expression. He was wearing a pale-white long robe. Although he also had a heroic aura, his actions were much more refined than Wang Jian's. He had a white beard and beard. He was Meng Ao.
According to history, Meng Ao should have died in the seventh year of his reign, but he had not died until this year. Ying Zheng had guessed that he was the reason why he had come here.
A few years ago, Meng Ao retreated bravely and the position of the head general was given to Wang Jian.
Ying Zheng was a little surprised that he had come here with Wang Jian today.
The two of them walked in one on the left and the other on the right. When they saw Concubine Yan who was standing beside Ying Zheng, they were first shocked, then joy flashed across their eyes.
The king had finally grown up!
Then, he walked forward and bowed to Ying Zheng and Concubine Yan respectively,""Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Empress!"
"Rise!"
"Generals, there's no need to be so polite!"
It had to be said that the two of them were very smart. They bowed to see how Consort Yan would answer. Now, she didn't refute her words.
They knew that the matter of the king's future children was in the bag!
After all, as the rulers of a country, they were very concerned about whether they had any children. To put it bluntly, if Ying Zheng died one day, they would still know who to assist.
Otherwise, it would be chaotic again.
"Alright, you guys have done with this bow. Why are you meeting this king? Could it be about the imperial examinations?" Looking at Wang Jian and Meng Ao, Ying Zheng asked Zhao Gao to show them a seat, then took the initiative to ask.
"Your Majesty is wise. Old Meng and I came here for the imperial examinations.”
“....”
Unlike Meng Ao, Wang Jian was usually frank and frank. In addition, he had been in contact with Ying Zheng for many years. Therefore, he was quite open in this kind of private occasion, and directly told him his purpose.
"Oh? General Wang Jian also felt that this king's actions were inappropriate?”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Wang Jian did not seem to mind and continued to speak to himself,"Of course, Your Majesty. If this old minister were to say it, you really didn't do a good thing this time. The imperial examinations actually tested the theory of governing the country.”
"How do you expect us generals to take the test? Our hands are all used to holding weapons, and we don't have the custom of playing with words and ink.”
“....”
Wang Jian's words had struck Ying Zheng with a great deal of thunder. If he had not thought that he was the king and could not afford to lose his manners, he really wanted to go over and pull Wang Jian's collar and spit at him.'Can you not speak in such a weird way?'
Because, Ying Zheng could tell from Wang Jian's words that he seemed to be saying,'Your Majesty, are you looking down on my generals?'
The heavens had pitied him, and Ying Zheng had never looked down on anyone.
No, he looked down on those who were against Great Qin.
He valued generals very much.
Especially the Qin country's culture, which advocated martial arts.
