Zhao Tuo took the silk brush.
After a quick brush, the Imperial Jade Seal was sealed.
"Was this letter handed over by someone from the Black Ice Platform?”Zhao Tuo asked casually.
The eunuch nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"The people from the Black Ice Platform?"
Ying Zheng, Meng Yi, and the others were a little confused when they heard this answer.
Normally, even if it was urgent, a letter from the Northern Borderline would be delivered by a special messenger from the palace.
The Black Ice Platform's main function was to take care of Great Qin's hidden activities and special missions.
Why did he send a letter?
Zhao Tuo didn't say much. He handed the letter to the eunuch and said,"
"Hand this letter to the person who sent it back. He will know what to do.”
"Here!"
The eunuch left with the letter.
Seeing that Zhao Tuo had no intention of explaining the situation, the crowd naturally did not dare to ask further.
Instead, he revealed the main purpose of his visit today.
"Your Majesty, Sanchuan, Nanyang, Yingchuan, Sishui, Hedong, Dongjun and other counties have sent back news.”
Meng Yi stood up and handed the memorial in his hand to Zhao Tuo. He continued,
"Now that the rain has stopped, the relief food has arrived one after another. Not many people have died from famine.”
"The flood in Hedong County and East County didn't pose a threat to the people downstream of the river because they evacuated in time.”
"These few counties with the largest population in Great Qin have already stopped causing chaos and returned to stability.”
"Hmm…tell me about the situation with the scholarly faction.”
Feng Quji stood up and replied,"Your Majesty, after the incident of blocking the road and the secret post, the reputation of the Confucians in the surrounding counties of Xianyang has taken a sharp turn."”
"In fact, there have even been cases of scholarly disciples switching to other schools.”
"If nothing unexpected happens, the scholarly faction will decline in less than a year and a half.”
Zhao Tuo nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad, let's continue to wait for a while according to this situation.”
"It'll be easier to use them when the arrogance of these Confucian scholars is worn away.”
"Other than these, how are the movements of the other counties that zhen has instructed?”
Feng Quji and Wang Ben looked at each other and said,
"Your Majesty, General Wang and I have gathered information from the other counties according to your instructions.“
"The chaos in half of the counties has already subsided, but there are a few counties that are fine.”
"Nothing strange, huh…"
Zhao Tuo grinned.
Under the current situation, nothing was out of the ordinary.
Even the Xianyang City under his feet had almost exploded some time ago. It was only because of the Zen position and the subsequent set of combination fists that it had settled down.
The other counties were stable?
That was impossible.
"General Wang, after you go back, immediately mobilize your troops to keep an eye on those 'stable' counties.”
"If zhen guessed correctly, these places should have already fallen.”
"What?!"
Ying Zheng stood up with a swoosh, releasing a powerful aura that was mixed with anger.
"These remnants of the Six Nations have eaten the guts of a bear or a leopard! I'm not old enough to walk, and this bunch of rascals actually dare to jump out!”
"Wang Ben, prepare my horse! This time, I will personally lead the army and completely wipe out these six countries!”
Seeing that Ying Zheng was about to start a fight, Zhao Tuo hurriedly stood up to appease him.
"Imperial Father, there's no need to be angry. All of this is within expectations.”
"As expected?"
"That's right." Zhao Tuo nodded and explained," If these people don't come out, it's like a poison that's been suppressed in their bodies. It'll be a disaster sooner or later."”
"Thus, I took advantage of the unstable foundation of this ascension and the opportunity of the natural disaster to change food to disturb the hearts of the people to force out these poisons.”
"Imperial Father, don't worry. For these people, Zhen has already prepared their coffins.”
"Now that they have jumped in, all that's left is to cover the lid for them!”
"Oh?"
Looking at Zhao Tuo's subtle smile, the anger in Ying Zheng's heart instantly dissipated.
"Since Tuo 'er has already made plans, then Imperial Father will not worry anymore.”
"Hahaha, Imperial Father will just wait to watch the show.”
After pacifying Ying Zheng, Zhao Tuo asked again,""Prime Minister Feng, I told you before that I was anxious about the Xianyang craftsmen. How is it?”
"Your Majesty, there are a total of 120 craftsmen waiting in the palace.”
"Not bad, not bad." Zhao Tuo nodded in satisfaction.
"Tuo 'er, why are you in such a hurry?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Tuo in confusion.”
Zhao Tuo smiled mysteriously.
"It's just some small things. Father will know when the time comes.”
……
After the official business was settled, everyone left.
Looking at the backs of Feng Quji and Li Si, Ying Zheng could not help but sigh,""During this period of time, Minister Feng and Minister Meng have been very busy.”
Zhao Tuo nodded in agreement.
All this while, Great Qin had been working together with the Left and Right, and they had also been balancing each other.
Apart from Zhao Gao's matter, Li Si was still in prison.
In the court, Feng Quji handled all the affairs.
However, during this period of time, there had been a lot of policies.
"No, now that Prime Minister Feng is old, it would be difficult if something bad happens to him…"
Zhao Tuo rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.
"Looks like after the return of the corvee, I have to deal with Li Si's matter.”
……
Northern Borderline, Shangjun.
The sunset glow illuminated the sky, and a few wild geese floated across the sky.
The scene looked extremely pleasant.
However, if one looked further down, they would see countless Qin soldiers guarding the northern border of Great Qin.
Fu Su stood on the top of the Great Wall and looked at the southern sky.
That was…the direction of Xianyang.
"Young Master, reply from Xianyang!"
"Xianyang…reply?"
Looking at the letter handed over by the messenger, Fu Su was a little confused.
If he remembered correctly, he had only sent a letter to Xianyang yesterday.
Although Shangjun and Xianyang were not far away, it would still take one and a half days to reach them.
Where did the reply come from?
