Kuaiji County.
"Brother Xiang, I came here today to tell you something important!”
Kuaiji County Governor Yin Tong is currently sitting in a thatched hut, exchanging information with Xiang Liang.
"I wonder if Brother Xiang saw that golden light and the dragon shadow phenomenon in the sky a few days ago?”
Xiang Liang nodded.
"Naturally. Even if you didn't see it, it has already spread through the streets and alleys. Could it be that Brother Yin's visit today is related to this matter?”
"That's right!"
Yin Tong stood up and cautiously glanced outside the room.
Seeing that Xiangyu was standing outside with his sword in hand, he sat back down and said in a low voice,"
"Brother Xiang, now that His Majesty has abdicated and is no longer as sharp as before, the people in power in the second generation are not stable. I'm afraid that Great Qin will be toppled in a matter of days!”
"I've heard that to the west of the Great River, there are already people from the six countries who claim that they were the ones who issued this phenomenon and gathered a lot of troops.”
"The heavens want to destroy Great Qin!”
"Hmph…Ridiculous!"
Xiang Liang snorted coldly and said," Such shamelessness. I'm afraid it's someone from the Qi Kingdom. I've received a tip that the phenomenon was caused by the second emperor's Mount Li worship ceremony!"”
Yin Tong was startled when he heard these words. He immediately smiled indifferently.
"Now that Great Qin is like this, so what if someone caused this phenomenon?”
"I think this is a good opportunity to attack Qin!”
Xiang Liang nodded.
Indeed, in the current situation, there would definitely be many people raising their troops.
If he continued to hide like this, he might not even be able to show his face even if he fell under the blanket.
On the contrary, they might be able to gain some benefits by taking advantage of this chaos.
Thinking of this, Xiang Liang suddenly asked in a deep voice,""In that case, I wonder how Brother Yin's preparations are going?”
Yin Tong chuckled.
"Of course, everything has been arranged. If we start an army, Xianyang probably won't find out for a while.”
"Where's the official seal?"
"I have it with me."
"Very good!" Yin Tong's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"Brother Yin, why don't we call Yu 'er in and discuss this matter together?”
"Of course."
Yin Tong opened the door with a smile and waved at Xiangyu.
"Uncle?"
Seeing Xiang Yu looking at him, Xiang Liang nodded at him.
"You can make your move now."
"Brother Xiang, what do you mean by attack? How did I…"
"Swoosh!"
Before Yin Tong could finish his sentence, Xiangyu waved his hand and a cold light swept across his neck.
Then, the things in front of him began to turn upside down…
"Clang…"
"Plop!"
Xiang Liang expressionlessly looked at Yin Tong, whose head was already separated from his body, and sighed softly.
"Brother Yin, thank you."
"Yu 'er, take his head and official seal, let's go!”
"Yes, uncle!"
……
It was not just Kuaiji.
Within Great Qin's territory, countless factions of all sizes revealed their fangs and ambitions as they sharpened their weapons.
However, their power was still strong and not worth paying attention to.
However, given time, it would develop in a day.
When these forces gathered together, they would become a huge malignant tumor sooner or later.
However, they didn't expect that.
Above them, there was a pair of eyes that transcended everything, spying on their past and future.
And on their path, they had already dug a fatal trap.
……
"My lord! Hanoi, Yingchuan, and Sishui came to report!”
Seeing Lu Bu walk into the bedroom, Zhao Tuo hurriedly put down his pen.
"Speak."
"The three counties are raining heavily. Although the rain has decreased slightly after the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon on the day of the Pilgrimage, it still doesn't show any signs of stopping. If this continues…I'm afraid a disaster will occur.”
"In addition, Hanoi County has also observed that the water level of the river has begun to rise. If the heavy rain continues like this, the Lower Reaches East County will also be in trouble.”
Zhao Tuo took a deep breath, and his expression gradually turned solemn.
It seemed that this was indeed the place.
Thinking of this, he directly ordered,"Pass on my decree. The disaster relief food will be loaded into the truck immediately. Prepare to prevent rain and wait for my order."”
"Also, order the chief of water under the Shao Fu to immediately set off for the two counties of the Great River to prepare to deal with the flood.”
"Understood!"
Lu Bu left.
The next day, Qilin Hall held morning court.
"His Majesty's orders yesterday have been arranged.”
"A portion of the rations have already been loaded onto the wagons. In addition, the two Water Captains under the Shao Mansion have already brought their craftsmen to the two counties of the Great River.”
Hearing Feng Quji's report, Zhao Tuo nodded in satisfaction.
"Thank you for your hard work, Prime Minister Feng. Other than that, how are the preparations for the cement production and the reduction of corvee?“
" Your Majesty, the idle workshops in the palace have begun to produce cement in large quantities. The reduction and dismissal of the corvee have also been prepared, but..."
Seeing Feng Quji's hesitation, Zhao Tuo waved his hand.
"What do you think, Minister Feng?”
Feng Quji nodded and said in a deep voice,"Your Majesty, the hundreds of thousands of slaves are all young and strong, and they have been working for a long time.”
"However, the remnants of the six countries of the Great Qin Dynasty and those with ulterior motives are emerging one after another. If these corvee return home…"
"If they return home, they might become the swords of those rebels, right?”
Zhao Tuo continued with a smile.
"This is the result I want!”
"Ah?"
Feng Quji was stunned.
The officials who were thinking about how to persuade Zhao Tuo to withdraw his order were also stunned.
Clearly, Zhao Tuo's words made them truly unable to understand.
What? Could it be that this second emperor was sick of it after just a few days of ascending the throne?
Zhao Tuo smiled mysteriously and did not explain further.
"This is a poisonous feast. If they dare to eat it, they have to be prepared to die from the poison.”
"Minister Feng, just go ahead and do it. When the time comes, you will understand some things.”
"Here!"
……
After the morning court session, Zhao Tuo hummed a little tune and returned to his bedroom.
Along with him were a few selected craftsmen, as well as a large bag of materials such as tree bark, fallen leaves, mulberry, and hemp.
"Your…Your Majesty, you're back?”
Seeing that there was someone behind Zhao Tuo, Little Peach hurriedly changed her words.
Looking at the blush on her face, Zhao Tuo smiled and stroked Little Peach's hair.
"Go and rest first. I have some things to do these two days.”
"Oh, are you trying to figure out something new?”
Zhao Tuo nodded, but a bitter smile appeared on his face.
" I'm just trying. I don't know if it'll work…"
