"I also think that this is disrespectful to Your Majesty.”Zhao Gao echoed. With Li Si leading the way, he was not afraid anymore.
Sigh, what's the use of fussing over these red tape? How could the ancients not understand that those who achieved great things did not care about trifles!
Initially, the First Emperor wanted to criticize him, but when he heard that those who achieved great things did not care about trifles, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Yes, that makes sense. However, Lan 'er is a person who will achieve great things. There's no need to use these rules to restrict him.”Qin Shi Huang waved his hand.
Wow, as expected of Lord Zheng, the emperor of the ages. He was really righteous!
Qin Shi Huang was very pleased with himself. Usually, Ying Lan would scold him and rarely praise him like this.
"Become a big deal?" The ministers looked at each other. Did the First Emperor misspeak? He should be sleeping, right?
These ministers were obviously full of complaints. After all, even the First Emperor was no exception in the morning court. Ying Lan, as a newcomer to the court, was undisciplined and casual.
"Since it's Lan 'er's first offense, I won't hold it against you. Do you have any objections?" Qin Shi Huang looked around, but no one dared to make a sound.
Qin Shi Huang nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Ying Lan.
"Imperial Father, I have an opinion. The morning court session is too difficult for me.”
"Huh?"
All the ministers were dumbfounded. Many princes fought for the title of nobility, and some even fought openly and secretly.
They knew that this was an important step in becoming Great Qin's Crown Prince. Ying Lan had inexplicably picked up a cheap title, but she had actually given it up because she could not sleep.
Ying Zheng's face darkened, a little displeased. He had already shown mercy, but this kid was pushing his luck.
If not for the miraculous effect of the detoxification prescription yesterday, Ying Zheng would definitely have turned hostile on the spot.
"Do you think that the title of the fifth doctor is too low? Looking at your performance in the future, I can give you a title until you are satisfied!”Ying Zheng did not beat around the bush.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Ying Lan was his savior. However, it was not convenient to mention this in the Imperial Court, and Great Qin mainly rewarded him with military merits, so he could not raise his status too high.
The tone of discussion once again refreshed the knowledge of the ministers. In their eyes, the First Emperor was decisive and unsmiling. Even his beloved eldest son, Fusu, was exiled to build the Great Wall to resist the Xiongnu.
At this moment, Qin Shi Huang's attitude was more like he was coaxing Ying Lan. He was really favored!
"No, Father, I'm not interested in the title of nobility. I just want to sleep well. This concerns the country's prosperity and the people's peace.”Ying Lan said sincerely.
Ying Zheng understood what he meant. The Sixth Prince loved to sleep and lie down, not for himself, but for the sake of forming a better immortal destiny.
"Good, good, good. It's the world's great fortune that Lan 'er has such a realization. Whether you come to the morning court or not depends on your mood. Someone, bring a chair for the sixth prince. I allow you to sleep in the court.”Ying Zheng could not help but give him a thumbs up.
The civil and military officials were like twelve feet tall monks, confused. Not only did they not punish him, they even affirmed him?!
Just like that, Ying Lan sat comfortably on the chair and leaned back.
"Your Majesty, the two ploughing tools have been put into use. A farmer only needs two hours to do a day's work! It was like something that came from the heavens. In time, it would cover everything, and Great Qin's residents would be blessed!”The Minister praised sincerely.
"Oh, is that so? Everything is within my expectations." Qin Shi Huang smiled in satisfaction.
These ministers still did not know about the Qu Yuan Li and the Wind Water Wheel blueprints. After hearing the explanation of the Minister of Works, each of them seemed to have been injected with chicken blood.
" Your Majesty is so mighty that everyone can see it. Even the craftsman Lu Ban from the Spring and Autumn Period did not have such an achievement…" Zhao Gao praised without thinking. But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Ying Zheng.
"This blueprint was drawn by Lan 'er. I only asked the Minister of Works to forge it.”
Zhao Gao was stunned and embarrassed. He didn't expect to flatter the wrong person.
"Lan 'er, Ying Lan? Sixth Prince!" Everyone was shocked speechless for a long time.
No wonder Qin Shi Huang was inexplicably rewarded. It turned out that Ying Lan had made a great contribution.
However, they would rather believe the blueprint that Ying Lan picked up than believe that he could draw it.
This kid was really lucky. They still didn't understand. Even so, Ying Lan wouldn't set a precedent in the imperial court.
"Your Majesty, I also have something to report." Wang Ben said respectfully.
"Speak."
"The Da Yue Clan is located in the northwest. According to the topographic map provided by the scouts, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now, the sky is dyed with yellow sand and the weather is very bad. Fortunately, we did not attack rashly. Otherwise, even if we attacked, we would have suffered heavy losses.”Wang Ben said sincerely.
"We said that we shouldn't be too hasty. Even if Great Qin is the strongest, we can't ignore the threats of other enemies. Now is the era of all countries, so we have to be calm. If we're not careful, we might cause a huge stir.”The First Emperor looked around, exuding a strong sense of majesty.
Following that, Ying Zheng took over the topographic map that Wang Ben had given him. It was a map that had been compiled based on the clues provided by a few peddlers. It was clear that Great Qin was surrounded by the Great Yue Clan, the Peacock Dynasty, and other empires.
The Peacock Dynasty was really in the southwest. Ying Lan was right!
Was this kid a prophet?
The reason why Great Qin did not know much about the Peacock Dynasty was because they were separated by a narrow and steep mountain range, which prevented the two countries from directly fighting. However, as long as the Great Yue family moved westward, they would be able to reach the Peacock Dynasty in a few days. If they moved eastward, they could collude with the Xiongnu, and if they joined forces, it would be a disaster for Great Qin!
Fortunately, they were not in a hurry to attack the Great Yue Clan. The Great Yue Clan could attack or defend at any time, and they could find allies at any time. They were not like Great Qin, who had destroyed six countries and offended almost everyone.
The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. Ying Lan had such an outstanding vision and accurate judgment of the situation. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him Imperial Preceptor!
Lord Zheng was quite smart. He actually knew how to get a map. In fact, it was easy to disintegrate the Dayue Clan. The Heavenly Dao Golden Rankings had brought generous rewards to the Dayue Clan. The balance of the grassland had quietly changed. Now, the Xiongnu were panicking.
As long as Great Qin generously gave the Xiongnu a batch of high-quality armor and weapons, the Great Yue Clan would definitely think that the Xiongnu would surrender to Great Qin. When the Great Yue Clan attacked the Xiongnu, they would announce to the outside world that the Great Yue Clan would surrender and the Peacock Dynasty would definitely not sit idly by. At that time, the Great Yue Clan would be attacked from all sides and obediently surrender. Perhaps they would be able to take down the Xiongnu and the Great Yue Clan without spending a single soldier.
"Wonderful!" Ying Zheng stood up abruptly and patted the armrest of the throne with one hand, unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes.
"What is it, Your Majesty?"
"Could it be that your dragon body is not good enough?" The officials muttered to themselves,
Xu Fu's recent death had filled everyone with doubts. However, according to the information they had gathered, there was something wrong with the pills that Xu Fu had offered over the years. Many of the officials were secretly glad. Fortunately, the First Emperor was selfish, especially when it came to pills. He never shared them with others. Otherwise, they would have been in trouble as well.
