In fact, this was a serious misunderstanding of the First Emperor. There were many things involved in this. For the first time in the world, the First Emperor had to go to various places to climb the divine mountain and carry out sacrifices.
This had something to do with the pre-Qin theology of destiny and the divine right to rule. The search for the secret recipe of immortality was just a side effect.
This was like when we came to a city on a business trip. There were many places of interest in the city, and we would take the time to go and take a look.
This was the same logic.
This time, the Emperor's eastern tour was going around the borders of the Central Plains. He wanted to show Great Qin's strength to the people at the borders and make them sincerely submit.
This time, the scale of the eastern expedition was very large. The First Emperor had brought a hundred thousand soldiers.
There were also Li Xin, Zhang Han, and the others.
However, Ying Ziyu was still worried before they set off, so he transferred Yang Zaixing and Li Cunxiao to the side of Emperor Shi. With Yang Zaixing and Li Cunxiao around, even if Xiangyu came personally, he could still take them down.
Outside Xianyang City, Ying Ziyu led the civil and military officials as they watched the eastern patrol team gradually leave.
"Alright, everyone, please return. The court session will continue tomorrow. I hope that everyone can support me during this period of time.”
Ying Ziyu looked at the Qin Emperor's convoy that had already disappeared from his sight. He turned around and gave the officials a smile that he thought was very friendly.
Ying Ziyu was holding the Sword of the Emperor Qin with a golden medallion hanging from his waist. He looked at the officials with a smile.
This smile made the scalps of many officials present go numb.
"It's over. Not long ago, I asked His Majesty to punish Young Master. Now that Young Master is in charge of the country, he won't find trouble with me, right?”
"Hehe, you still don't know what kind of person the Ninth Young Lord is.”
All the officials had different thoughts. Some were worried and afraid, some were disdainful, and some were just letting nature take its course. However, no matter what they thought, they could no longer do anything to Ying Ziyu.
In the entire Xianyang, Ying Ziyu was the most powerful.
After the officials left, Ying Ziyu returned to Young Master Pavilion.
As soon as Ying Ziyu entered the house, Shen Wansan rushed over. Old Shen's purpose for looking for Ying Ziyu was very simple. He wanted her back.
Now that the cement had been successfully developed, the Cemetery of Martyrs could be built.
"Old Shen, take my Black Dragon Token and go to the General's Mansion to get the people. First, get the general scale of the cemetery.”
Shen Wansan took the Black Dragon Token and did not stay any longer. He went straight to the General's Mansion.
The next morning! Ying Ziyu arrived at the Town Hall early in the morning.
At this moment, all the officials had arrived. Ying Ziyu sat at the head of the table and looked at everyone.
"Is everyone here?"
The officials looked at each other. For a moment, no one spoke.
At this moment, Meng Yi stood out." Young Master, the Head of the Bureau of Governmental Affairs is Wang Qian, the Chief of Staff is Pei Ji, and the Young Master is Guo Kai…" They haven't arrived yet."
Ying Ziyu nodded. It was his first day as the head of the country, and these people didn't come to court. This was not giving him face.
"Since you don't want to come, then don't come in the future."”
As soon as Ying Ziyu finished speaking, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared. His cold eyes swept across everyone as if he was looking at prey.
"Milords, what do you think?"
The officials looked at each other when they heard this. Suddenly, someone stood up and said loudly,"Young Master is right. It's your first day supervising the country, and these people don't come to court. They clearly don't put you in their eyes. In my opinion, these people all have disloyal intentions and should be punished.”
Ying Ziyu nodded his head in satisfaction. It seemed like there were smart people around.
"What's your name?"
"Young Master, I am Xiao Shang, the remonstrant.”
After nodding his head, Ying Ziyu waved his hand to signal for the person to leave." Alright, sirs, the court session will continue now. Remove your official positions and drag them to build the Great Wall.”
"Does anyone have anything to report?"
Seeing Ying Ziyu's cold gaze, the officials didn't dare to waste any more time. They quickly took out a bamboo scroll from their sleeves and passed it to Ying Ziyu.
This Young Master Ying Ziyu was supervising the country on his first day, yet someone didn't come to court. This was in itself disrespectful to him. If he didn't act quickly, he might be the next one to suffer.
All the officials reported, and Ying Ziyu smiled again.
And his following performance did not disappoint the officials.
As long as it was something that could be brought up for discussion, Ying Ziyu would take the initiative to ask and discuss it with the officials before making a decision.
Ying Ziyu's attitude was very serious. He was not as stubborn as everyone thought. Even if there were officials who disagreed with him, he would just laugh it off.
Such an attitude made many people heave a sigh of relief. After a court meeting, the mood of the officials was quite good. At least they did not have to worry anymore.
After the court session ended, Ying Ziyu came to Zhangtai Palace because there was still a small mountain of memorials waiting for him to read.
Along with him were Feng Quji, Meng Yi, Wang Ben, and the others. After the court session ended, Ying Ziyu asked them to stay behind. When they arrived at Zhangtai Palace, Ying Ziyu waved his hand and asked the servants to bring over a writing table and brush.
"Everyone, come and sit. Don't just stand there.”
Looking at the memorial and ink prepared on the table, they immediately had a bad feeling.
This was clearly premeditated!
Was the Ninth Young Master planning to ask them to review the memorial together?
Looking at the memorial that Ying Ziyu handed over, Feng Quji and the others shook their heads helplessly.
"Cough cough…Young Master, I am a general, and you want me to approve the memorial. Isn't this a little too much? Besides, I don't know how to do it."
Wang Ben looked at the bamboo slips Ying Ziyu handed over, and his entire face darkened.
Good heavens, you didn't even let me, a general, go. Is this politeness?
"Yes... It's fine. I didn't expect General Wang to help. I just wanted to make up the numbers.”
Wang Ben's face darkened even more when he heard that. It seemed that he was just there to make up the numbers!
Ying Ziyu had no other choice. The memorials sent over from all over the world could be piled up into a small mountain. He didn't have the time to read them one by one.
Thinking about his cheap father, Ying Ziyu felt that it was terrifying to see a hundred pounds of documents in a day. However, he had to look at it, so after the court meeting, Ying Ziyu directly grabbed the able-bodied men.
Due to Ying Ziyu's authority, the few of them had no choice but to accept their fate.
"Then, Prime Minister Feng, Senior Minister Meng Yi, I'll have to trouble you with General Wang's memorials. If you can't make up your mind, then stay here for now. I still have some matters to attend to here, so I'll be leaving first.”
Ying Ziyu said as if it was a matter of course. Then, under the shocked gazes of the others, he swaggered away.
In Zhangtai Palace, in the royal study, Feng Quji and the others 'faces turned green.
This Young Master Ying Ziyu was really too irresponsible. The dignified Young Master Supervisor actually became a hands-off manager.
Everyone looked at each other, then sighed helplessly and began to examine and approve the memorial. Ying Ziyu, who had just left the royal study, met his second brother, Young Master Ying Gao.
The result was obvious. Under Ying Ziyu's persuasion, Gongzi Gao also joined the ranks of the approval of the memorial.
The next day, early in the morning, all the officials in the discussion hall had arrived. Ying Ziyu sat at the head of the table.
"Milords, do you have anything to report today?”
As Ying Ziyu's voice fell, Feng Quji immediately stood up."
"Young Master, I have something to report."
"Please speak, Minister Feng!" Ying nodded.
Feng Quji cleared his throat and straightened his expression."Young Master, Zhao Gao and Li Si's faction has been eliminated for a long time, but they have many followers. There are many vacancies in the various departments and positions that need to be filled!”
"Young Master, this is the name list for the vacancy.”
Ying Ziyu sat on a small step below Brother Zheng's throne. After hearing Feng Quji's words, he nodded slightly,"Hand it over!"
Feng Quji immediately took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve and handed it to the inner servant to pass to Ying Ziyu. Ying Ziyu roughly glanced at it and put this so-called name list to the side. Then, he calmly said,"The lack of officials in various places indeed needs to be replenished in time. Otherwise, there will definitely be chaos over time.”
Hearing Ying Ziyu agree, the eyes of the officials below immediately became heated. Zhao Gao and Li Si's rebellion had implicated many people. If not a thousand, at least eight hundred people had been convicted because of them. Many of the great clans had contributed, and now that it was finally time to split the cake, how could they not be envious?
The name list that Feng Quji gave Ying Ziyu was recommended by the officials. Ying Ziyu was well aware of this, so he didn't even look at the name list.
The officials in the palace looked at Ying Ziyu with anticipation. Ying Ziyu smiled and said indifferently,"Xuan, Xiao He, Cao Can, Han Xin, and the others enter the hall.”
"Yes!"
Following the announcement of the attendant beside him, figures walked in from outside the main hall one by one. The person in the lead was Xiao He.
At this moment, the officials were a little confused. They did not understand what was going on!
They didn't know any of the people who came in. The officials didn't understand why Young Master called them in.
Ying Ziyu didn't care about the reactions of the officials. He said calmly,""Although Zhao Gao and Li Si's faction has been eliminated, just as Prime Minister Feng said, there are many vacancies in the court.”
"Since there is a vacancy, we need talents to fill it. As such, this Young Master spared no effort and personally went to the people to recruit some capable people in order to fill the vacancy of our Great Qin's official position.”
