The next day.
On the way to the Qilin Palace.
Congratulations to the host for subduing Han Xin. Great Qin's Fate has increased. Rewarding Zhuge Repeating Crossbow Design.
Congratulations to the host for subduing Zhang Er and Zhang Ao. The fate of the Great Qin Empire has increased. The reward is the mineral salt refining record.
Congratulations to the host for allowing Xiang Yu to stay in Xianyang. The fate of the Great Qin Empire has improved. The host is rewarded with 1,000 Tiger Leopard Cavalry.
He listened to the notification sound in his ear.
Ying Zimo couldn't help but smile. He was in a pretty good mood.
Xiangyu's notification was different from the others.
Obviously, this West Chu Overlord was only temporarily kept in Xianyang by his provocation.
But so what?
It was better than wandering outside and walking on the path of anti-Qin, right?
Thinking of this, even his short legs that were walking towards the Qilin Palace became much lighter.
From afar, one could already hear the heated debate in the Imperial Court.
"Did you guys know that the people Little Lord invited arrived yesterday? Xianyang City has been turned upside down."
"These people are not well-known, and there are even beggars and anti-Qin people. Do we have to let them enter the court?”
"Hmph, do these people know what is called a military matter? It was simply absurd to let them participate in the discussion of state affairs!”
"Today, the court is going to be lively again. Sigh, it's better for us not to say much. When His Majesty returns with the Immortal Medicine, everything will be decided.”
........
The officials discussed endlessly.
Especially behind Feng Quji, even if he closed his eyes slightly, the officials from the aristocratic families behind him all had indignant expressions.
Some of the neutral officials also had solemn expressions.
On the other hand, Li Si and Wang Jian, who rarely came to court, appeared very calm.
Stomp--
Stomp--
Only when they saw Ying Zimo walk into the hall did the discussions quieten down a little.
Their eyes were all looking up.
Ying Zimo walked to the small table and jumped on it.
Yu Huatian, who was holding his saber, stood behind him.
His cold gaze swept across the entire court. No one dared to look him in the eye and turned their heads away.
Yu Huatian's reputation as an eagle hound was known by everyone in Xianyang.
He was ruthless and obedient.
"Everyone is in good spirits today.”
"I wonder if you have anything to report today?"
Being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes, Ying Zimo didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
He took out the jade pen that Gongshu Youlan had given him and started drawing on the paper.
Sometimes, he even poked his chin with the tip of his pen and leisurely wrote down the method of purifying mineral salt.
Something to report?
Of course there was something!
The ministers were now full of advice.
And it was a huge matter!
However, no one had taken the lead yet.
After all, that Chief Rain was standing behind Ying Zimo with his saber.
If he made this little ancestor unhappy and ended up like Zhao Gao, he would die in vain.
Thus, in the quiet hall.
Only the sound of writing and drawing on the small table could be heard.
Half an hour later, the steps for refining mineral salt were almost finished.
Satisfied, Ying Zimo dried the ink and looked up at the ministers.
"General Meng, how is the situation in the Northern Frontier? What about the commoners?"
The Huns were the top priority.
Only Meng Tian, who had been fighting with him for a long time, understood this.
Meng Tian stepped forward and cupped her hands." Reporting to Little Lord, the military rations are almost ready. It's just that the rations for the people are far from enough.”
Meng Yi was still helping to plant potatoes in the suburbs. He did not have the time to come back and tell him that the first batch of potatoes had matured and that they were being sown on a large scale.
In fact, other than Meng Yi, only the Wang Clan knew about this matter.
"Yes, when General Meng goes to the Northern Frontier, please help me bring two people with me. They are both very good generals.”
"Oh? Who is it?"
"Men, bring Han Xin and the others in.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The atmosphere in the entire court became heavier.
Everyone looked at the Qilin Palace's entrance.
From the door, a few figures walked in. They were the so-called " virtuous officials and good generals " who were rumored to have been summoned by the young master from all over Xianyang yesterday.
Even though Han Xin had changed his clothes, he still couldn't hide his sallow complexion.
It even made people feel like his clothes were stolen.
The officials 'expressions turned ugly.
Now, more than half of the people in the royal court were from prestigious families and lived like royalty.
Little Lord found a few people, all of whom were nameless and came from poor backgrounds.
County magistrate?
They usually wouldn't even look at such a small official when they passed by.
And that Han Xin, he was like a sparrow wearing the clothes of a phoenix. It was difficult to hide his shabbiness.
These people wanted to stand in the Great Qin Imperial Court and be officials with them?
"The two people I mentioned just now are Xiang Yu and Han Xin. They are both excellent generals. When they fight against the Xiongnu, they will be like a tiger with wings for the Qin army.”
"Little Lord, this isn't quite in line with the rules. Great Qin has a military merit system, so even if these two people are really as you say, they can't just take up important positions in the military for no reason.”
Meng Tian frowned.
He was extremely loyal to the First Emperor and a man of principle.
Regardless of their talents.
The military merit system was very strict.
"Zimo will definitely follow the rules of military merits.”
Ying Zimo nodded his little head and said," How about this? I just recruited a group of private soldiers a few days ago. There are not many of them, only 1,000. Xiang Yu and Han Xin will each take 500.”
"I will pay for these 1,000 soldiers out of my own pocket, so it won't be considered a violation of the rules. After Xiang Yu and Han Xin have rendered meritorious service, General Meng will promote their ranks and let them bring more soldiers.”
This was in line with the rules.
There were many descendants of noble families who joined the army and would also bring their own soldiers to participate in the battle, which would allow them to accumulate military merits faster.
But it seemed like the Little Lord did not have any private soldiers.
Great Qin's elite soldiers were all elites who had been through countless battles, and they could not just casually recruit 1,000 people to make up the numbers.
Instantly, the ministers 'expressions became strange.
Now, apart from causing trouble in the Imperial Court, the Little Lord also wanted to interfere in the war in the Northern Frontier?
But the battlefield was not a game.
The ministers had never been afraid of Ying Zimo, but because this was the authority bestowed by the First Emperor.
But the Xiongnu didn't care who you were, they would kill you.
At least Han Xin and Xiang Yu didn't occupy any positions in the court. If they died on the battlefield, it wouldn't have anything to do with them.
They looked at Han Xin and Xiangyu with pity.
These two brats brought a thousand mobs that the Little Lord had recruited from god knows where to fight against the Xiongnu?
It was probably a one-way trip.
