Ji City.
Fei Xue Pavilion.
"Reporting to Your Highness, General Meng Tian successfully arrived at the Great Wall three days ago to take over the defense. The 50 cities in Yan have all been taken over by Great Qin!”
"However, before my army arrived, most of the treasuries in the cities had already been plundered by the local wealthy clans. Many wealthy families even fled to Qi Land with their money. The remaining money was far from enough for the army, let alone to reward the three armies!”
Deputy General Wang Li said angrily.
One had to know that Yan was thousands of miles away from Guanzhong. The grain supplies were supplied from Guanzhong, and the losses along the way would exceed the final amount.
When Ying Che had taken down Ji City quickly, they had thought that they would be able to get enough supplies in Yan Land. But now, they had been stabbed by the greed of the nobles in Yan Land!
"It's fine. These nobles are people who are blinded by profit. It's not surprising for them to do this!”
"Pass on my order. Have all the places check the accounts of the treasury. After the inventory is done, order the local wealthy families to return the plundered treasury property within ten days!”
Ying Che waved his hand indifferently.
"Your Highness!"
Wang Li's eyes widened.
Since you know that these wealthy families are extremely greedy, you actually expect an order to return the money they embezzled. Isn't this too unrealistic?
Wang Li subconsciously thought that after this prince finally turned over a new leaf, he was once again blown away by the huge victory.
"Just do as you're told. Ten days later, this Young Master will have a plan!”
Ying Che said expressionlessly.
"This subordinate will obey!"
Wang Li quickly nodded.
Even the slowest person could see that after destroying the Yan Kingdom, the Third Young Master Ying Che was the best candidate to become the future ruler of Great Qin. It was not something that a mere Deputy General like Wang Li could doubt.
"What a pity, a general is not handsome!"
"He didn't inherit Wang Jian and Wang Ben's strategies!”
Ying Che sighed as he watched Wang Li leave.
"Not everyone is as cunning and scheming as you!”
A snow maiden wearing a deep blue silk dress walked in with a plate of pastries and snorted coldly.
"Tell me, how am I sinister?”
Ying Che laughed.
"Isn't that simple?"
" You've always been scheming behind the scenes," the snow maiden said coldly." This time, you're definitely going to use a soft tactic to numb the nobles of the Land of Yan. Then, you'll take advantage of the moment when they're least prepared to capture them all in one fell swoop. You'll get back all the money they took with interest!"”
"Not bad!"
"It's only been a few days, and you've already grasped my thoughts so accurately!”
"Can I assume that Miss Snow Maiden is actually very interested in me?" Ying Che asked with a smile.”
"Who's following you!"
"If it wasn't for the fact that I'm afraid you'll harm Fei Xue Ge's sisters, I wouldn't care about you!”
The snow maiden stomped her feet lightly, put down the pastries, and was about to turn around and leave when Ying Che suddenly pulled her into his embrace.
After struggling for a while, the snow maiden saw that Ying Che had no intention of letting go. She immediately gave up on resisting and turned her head away in a 'cold' manner to protest silently.
Ying Che couldn't help but laugh.
Perhaps it was because of her age, but the snow maidens who were still young were much more arrogant than the cold and frosty image in his mind. However, they were also much cuter.
At the very least, it would give Ying Che a greater sense of accomplishment to bully him.
No one would like a person beside them. Was he really an ice cube?
"Is that really the case?"
The smile on Ying Che's face grew wider as he looked at the snow maidens who were pretending to be expressionless, but were actually blushing.
"Forget it if you don't believe me!"
The snow maiden felt very uncomfortable under Ying Che's gaze and quickly changed the topic,""No matter what, you are still a young master of the State of Qin. Aren't you afraid of damaging your image and future by staying in Fei Xue Pavilion all day?”
"Xue 'er really cares about this young master!”
"But you don't know this.”
"According to the impression outsiders have of this Young Master, I should be living in Fei Xue Pavilion, leaning on the red and green, burying myself in dossiers all day. That is not my style!”
"Moreover, you've already said that I plan to numb the nobles of the Yan Country. If I behave conscientiously, do you think they will still fall for it?”
Ying Che laughed lightly.
"Aren't you afraid of forcing the nobles of Yan to rebel? These people are not as simple as you think!”
The snow maiden lowered her head slightly to avoid Ying Che's gaze.
"It's because I understand them too well that I know that these people have no respect for the ruler and have no sense of shame!”
"Even if they appear respectful on the surface, once they encounter a situation that goes against their personal interests, they will mercilessly abandon them!”
"Although the King of Yan was muddle-headed in the past, he was still kind to these nobles in the country. However, when the Yan Country was destroyed, did you see any trace of affection from these people?”
"They either sold out the Yan Country in exchange for a future in Great Qin, or they directly turned around and plundered the city's treasury to fill their own pockets. There were even many despotic and evil gentry who took the opportunity to plunder the wealth of the commoners and forcefully snatch their women.”
"How can such a person have true loyalty?”
"Since no matter what we do, they won't really submit to Great Qin, why not do what's most beneficial to Great Qin?”
"This group of people may not have any other abilities, but they are top-notch experts at plundering. They will definitely exceed your imagination!”
"Instead of letting them continue to cause trouble, it's better to end it once and for all!”
"Replenish the national treasury and end this chaotic world early. Let the people recover a little sooner!”
Ying Che sneered.
The history of the later generations had already fully explained the deep-rooted bad habits of aristocratic families and clans. There was no need to pay attention to benevolence, righteousness, and morality when dealing with this group of people.
The snow maiden couldn't help but shiver.
Laughing and laughing for a few days, he actually almost treated this Qin country young master as a silkpants, but forgot that this guy was a merciless killer.
Even though he did not personally witness it, the thousands of heads hung on the city gates the day after the fall of the city was enough to show how ruthless Ying Che was.
Moreover, the snow maiden clearly remembered that before Ying Che had taken action, he had mercilessly knocked her out without showing any mercy.
This time, the nobles of Yan would probably bleed like a river.
The snow maiden couldn't help but glance at Ying Che again.
What kind of person was this Qin Young Master that he was destined to never leave?
