The ministers went up the steps and poured into the Qilin Hall.
Ying Zimo brought Han Xin and Xiang Yu along and stood among the officials.
Ying Zheng sat on the throne and read the memorial. Hearing the ministers come in, he rubbed his eyebrows and raised his head.
Great Qin did not have three provinces and six armies, but it was a country with a high degree of authority.
As the emperor, Ying Zheng had to handle everything personally, so he was naturally exhausted.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
.......
Their voices echoed throughout the hall.
All the officials bowed, and at the same time, they observed Shi Huang's expression, and they could actually sense a hint of fatigue.
It was obvious that there had been many major events recently, and His Majesty had not slept last night.
"I read the memorial yesterday. This letter was written by you, Little Nineteen, right?”
Ying Zheng took out a piece of paper from the pile of memorials.
Immediately, the official standing in front saw the crooked handwriting on it.
"Yes, Imperial Father."
Ying Zimo didn't feel that his handwriting was ugly at all. Instead, he proudly raised his little head.
It was as if he was praising Qin Shi Huang.
"Next time, write your words more neatly. It's almost making me dizzy.”
Ying Zheng threw him a glance, feeling an urge to knock his little head.
However, after reading the contents of the memorial.
" It's a good thing that you can think of expanding the official salt store and not having enough manpower," he said seriously." The official salt store is a business that affects the world. It does need the participation of others."”
"Beloved ministers, do you have any recommendations?”
Official salt line?
When the officials heard this, they all revealed a thoughtful expression, but no one spoke first.
Not only did he have a portion of the financial power, but he also had a lifeline for Great Qin in his hands.
"Me? I have a candidate to recommend!”
However, just as the officials were thinking, a familiar voice sounded.
Hearing this voice, everyone's faces twitched. They turned around and looked at Ying Zimo, who raised his hand and jumped twice.
Don't tell me you found a few talents from somewhere and are preparing to stuff them into the imperial court?
His Majesty would not allow such a thing to happen.
The official salt store is too big. You can't control it. Let me wait.
"Little Lord, you don't have anyone else under you who can be assigned to various places to preside over the salt business, right?”
Li Si wasn't trying to ostracize Ying Zimo.
Instead, he knew that if one person monopolized such a huge cake, the ministers would be dissatisfied, and the First Emperor would not agree.
"Of course not.”
"I want to recommend Elder Brother Fusu and Old General Wang.”
Ying Zimo shook his head like a rattle-drum.
Jian pointed in the direction of the voice and sighed softly before taking two steps forward.
Meanwhile, Fu Su, who was inexplicably caught in the crossfire, widened his eyes in disbelief and pointed at himself, not knowing what to do.
"Me?"
"That's right. It's you, eldest brother. Back then, when we bought Bai Kunshan, we used your little treasury. Of course, we have to return the favor.”
"Believe in yourself, you can do it!"
Ying Zimo said sincerely.
Then, she jumped up and patted Fu Su's shoulder.
After smelling the ginseng fruit, his body seemed to have become much lighter. Now, he could jump up and hit Fusu's shoulder.
Feng Quji narrowed his eyes when he heard those words.
Wouldn't it be a slap to his face if he mentioned this?
However, he could not flare up. He could only cupped his hands and said,
"Little Lord, this is a national matter, not a business of borrowing money and returning money. If you use this as a reason to choose a candidate, this humble subject cannot agree.”
What he meant was that if the contribution was based on the popularity of the salt industry.
The two salt merchants from the aristocratic families also contributed.
Was it appropriate to kick them out now?
"Oh? What do you think, Minister Feng?"
Ying Zheng also asked from above.
The sound of exploration carried a thick aura.
Feng Quji immediately understood the Emperor's attitude.
The Little Lord seemed to be fooling around, but there was nothing wrong with the two people he recommended.
One was Wang Jian, who was isolated from the world and had no conflict of interest with any party. His prestige was also ridiculously high.
There was also the eldest son of the First Emperor, Fusu, who might inherit the throne in the future.
Shi Huang was quite satisfied with these two candidates.
Feng Quji made up his mind, turned around, and cupped his hands.
"Your Majesty, I think that Fusu and Old General Wang are indeed very suitable candidates. However, this salt trade is a serious matter. Old General Wang is already old, and it is inevitable that he will not be able to lead this matter. However, the implementation of the official salt trade indeed requires his prestige.”
"How about this, let Young Master Huhai participate in the affairs of the official salt store. He can also share His Majesty's worries and help Old General Wang reduce some pressure.”
Feng Quji's expression was sincere, as if he was thinking about Great Qin.
However, these words were beautifully said. Anyone who heard them would feel that it was reasonable.
Huhai?
Ying Zimo rolled his eyes.
Huhai was ignorant and incompetent. He didn't know how to run an official salt store.
At that time, the aristocratic families would still be the ones making plans, and Huhai would only be a puppet.
"It's possible to let Huhai share some of the pressure. Is there a problem?”
Seeing Ying Zimo's speechless expression, Su helped him scratch his head.
As the eldest son, he had no intention of fighting for power. Instead, he felt that he should be respectful to his brother and even wanted to help Huhai.
Ying Zimo clenched his teeth as he looked at her dazed expression. He was a little disappointed that she had failed to live up to his expectations.
"Brother Fusu, although you are a little honest and stubborn, at least you have the ability. What else does Huhai know besides eating, drinking, and having fun? Letting him deal with these things would ruin the country!”
Fu Su was speechless.
If you don't agree, then don't agree. Why did you bring me along?
Why did he get shot again?
These words were not only directed at Huhai, but also reprimanded him.
The ministers were all speechless.
This is court. Little Lord, how dare you reprimand your elder brother, Fu Su, in front of all the civil and military officials and His Majesty?
It seemed that even in front of His Majesty, the Little Lord would not restrain himself.
"Huhai?"
Ignoring the noise below, Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes when he heard this name.
In the past, besides Ying Zimo, Huhai was his favorite son.
However, all the prophecies in the letter had come true!
Now that he heard this name again, he only felt disappointed and heartbroken.
"With Huhai's personality, he's not suitable for handling matters of the country. Let him go to the Imperial Academy to cultivate his character.”
His voice was like the might of heaven.
The officials who heard a trace of anger looked at each other in confusion.
Why did His Majesty dislike Huhai so much?
Young Master Huhai didn't seem to have done anything wrong recently. The reason he barged into Black Tooth Prison was also on the side of the First Emperor.
Feng Quji couldn't guess, but he sensed the displeasure of the First Emperor and tactfully shut his mouth.
"Do you have any opinions on the war in the Northern Frontier?”
Ying Zheng's voice was calm, and he did not seem to dwell on this issue, as if he did not want to mention Huhai anymore.
The Xiongnu in the north was the most important thing today.
"Your Majesty, the scouts have reported that the Xiongnu's Left and Right Virtuous Kings have already mobilized their armies and crossed a thousand miles.”
"I'm afraid this time it's not as simple as plundering.”
.....
Meng Tian naturally stepped forward and reported the military situation in the Northern Frontier.
Great Qin wasn't the only one who was worried about that disaster; the Xiongnu were also in a bad state.
In the past, when they raided the border, they would split up into small groups, mainly to harass and snatch food and resources.
This was the first time they had launched a large-scale attack. Even Prince Xian of the Left and Prince Xian of the Right had been mobilized. Their goal was probably not to snatch some food.
"Your Majesty, I believe that we should pay attention to this battle. We should mobilize our troops and be on guard.”
"Yes, you will still be the commander this time. As for the deployment of troops, which general is willing to fight?”
Ying Zheng's gaze swept across the group of generals standing in the court.
"Imperial Father, I! I have someone to recommend!"
The tender voice sounded again.
The ministers were helpless.
Little Lord, why is it you again! Why are you everywhere!
He had to manage financial matters, but he also had to interfere in military affairs?
Those who don't know would think that you're still in charge of the country!
However, Ying Zimo seemed to be in school, waving his little hands as if he was fighting to answer the question.
"Hmph, I knew you were thinking about this. You want to recommend Han Xin and Xiang Yu, right?”
Ying Zheng's gloomy face turned a little better, and he scolded with a smile.
Of course, he knew what had happened in the court.
At that time, Ying Zimo was in charge of the country. He said that he wanted Han Xin and Xiang Yu to lead 1,000 troops to pacify the Xiongnu. At that time, he boasted very loudly.
"Eh? Father, so you knew. Why didn't you say so earlier?”
"Both of them are very outstanding generals. They will definitely shine in this battle.”
Ying Zimo said seriously.
"Little Lord, this war is not as simple as you think. It is an extremely dangerous matter. If you are not careful, you will be consigned to eternal damnation.”
Hearing this, Meng Tian frowned. She had no choice but to step forward.
This was because the First Emperor had a thoughtful look on his face. He was actually seriously considering this matter.
"This general does not look down on the two people that Little Lord recommended, but even Lord Wu 'an, Baiqi, and Old General Wang Jian have accumulated their experience bit by bit from the army, while these two have never fought a single battle.”
"I'm afraid that he will repeat Zhao Kuo's mistakes.”
As a subordinate of the Little Lord.
If he was recruited into the army, he would definitely not be an ordinary soldier. Moreover, he was not easy to control.
Han Xin was fine, but Xiang Yu was a thorn in his side.
At that time, if he did not respect the order and acted rashly, would he be punished by military law?
If the two of them were to delay the opportunity because of their lack of experience, should he punish them?
It was all a headache.
After hearing this, Xiangyu straightened his back.
"General Meng, are you treating me as a short-sighted coward? I unanimously believe that General Meng's strategy of resisting the Xiongnu is reasonable in the past, but if he still refuses to go out this time, it will be the worst policy!”
His powerful voice made the gazes of the officials turn strange.
Had he stayed with the Little Lord for too long? He was actually so arrogant.
In Great Qin, other than Wang Jian, who else dared to deny Meng Tian's use of troops and use such an aggressive tone?
"Oh? What do you think?"
Meng Tian did not get angry. Instead, she looked at Xiangyu with interest.
This time, he did not intend to resist. On the contrary, he was prepared to report to the First Emperor to use troops against the Xiongnu.
Xiangyu actually thought so?
"If we resist for a long time, although we can wait for fatigue, it will cause morale to fall and the army to lose its prestige. In the long run, the soldiers will even feel fear when facing the Xiongnu.”
"I think that we should march straight in and give the Xiongnu a head-on attack when they pass by Yanzhi Mountain. This mountain is located in the west of the river corridor and is an important place that connects the west of the river and the east of the river. Taking this place is equivalent to cutting off the connection between the Xiongnu and the grasslands.”
Facing the gazes of all the civil and military officials.
Xiangyu did not show any signs of fear or nervousness. Instead, he looked straight into Meng Tian's eyes and explained his strategy word by word.
Although it sounded like a boorish act at first glance, there was actually a fine line in the rough.
The civil officials did not understand, but many of the generals were lost in thought.
"While the Xiongnu's information is blocked, we can cross Mount Wu Li and pass through the five Xiongnu tribes at lightning speed. Finally, we can attack King Zhelan and King Lu Hu.”
He looked at Xiangyu, who was speaking with confidence and showing off his brilliance.
Han Xin did not say a word.
From a general perspective, although Xiang Yu's fighting style was different from his, the direction of his troops was similar.
He even had an even more sinister idea, but it was more difficult to implement, but if it became a Xiongnu, it would only exist in name on the spot.
"Isn't this fighting style a little too desperate? If you don't succeed, you'll die.”
The generals looked at each other.
With lightning speed, he penetrated through five tribes of the Xiongnu?
They even wanted to capture their two kings alive?
You really dare to boast
Even Meng Tian was shocked by his determination and bold idea.
Could it be that he had never seen the Xiongnu before and did not know how difficult the Xiongnu people were to deal with, so he dared to say such words?
Where did Xiangyu get his courage from?
This courage was either arrogant or confident.
"Is this young general's words feasible?”
There was no doubt that Xiang Yu's method was to Ying Zheng's liking, which was why he asked about the feasibility of this matter.
"In theory, it's possible.”
Meng Tian nodded with difficulty and told the truth.
"How did you come up with such a battle technique?”
Ying Zheng's tone was filled with a sense of examination.
"I came up with it myself, but Little Lord said that this is called some kind of blitzkrieg?”
"Lightning battle? This name is quite appropriate."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng gave Ying Zimo a meaningful look.
"Little Nineteen, it seems that you have been preparing for this battle for a long time. I heard that you even have a private army of a thousand people?”
Nothing in Xianyang could escape the eyes of the Black Ice Platform.
Not to mention, a troop of 1,000 soldiers suddenly appeared, and it was cavalry!
"No, I'm just casually studying it. Of course, I have to pay attention to protecting the country.”
Ying Zimo chuckled. The smile on his face was extremely bright.
It was as if saving the world was his responsibility.
"Since you have such resolve, I cannot be stingy.”
"Send out a cavalry of ten thousand men and try out the method this general mentioned. Your thousand men will stay by your side to protect yourself.”
