Ying Zheng returned to Xianyang this time and only brought back 5,000 cavalry, all of whom took off the saddles and stirrups of Takahashi and put them away, and the horses' hooves were also wrapped with cotton.

It's all about secrecy.

Although the secret of the three treasures in Mazhong has been leaked in Dog Rong, Dog Rong has been controlled by Yingzheng, and then General Bai Qi is in charge, and there is basically no leakage.

In addition, the cavalry and infantry who followed King Qin back parted ways with Yingzheng halfway and headed for Tianlu Peak.

Many of those horses were not equipped with the three treasures and heavy armor of the horses, and the cavalry were not equipped with heavy armor and Cossack cavalry swords.

Moreover, many cavalry were not formally militarized.

Therefore, it is the best choice to let them be in Tianlu Peak for the time being, and to polish them well.

After a while, all the horses were equipped with the Three Treasures and Heavy Armor, and all the cavalry were equipped with armor and Cossack swords, and they were rigorously trained.

A terrible army of heavy cavalry, which will soon turn out.

Ying Zheng also brought the girl in the cage back to Xianyang.

He deliberately arranged this woman in an independent palace and handed it over to the brocade guards to guard.

Dongfang Undefeated rushed back to the Sun Moon Divine Sect's main altar very early.

Her relationship with King Qin is a secret and should not be known to outsiders.

In addition, Dongfang Undefeated has left the Sun and Moon God Sect for so long, and she doesn't know if the main altar will be in turmoil, so she must rush back as soon as possible.

......

Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Zheng sat on the throne, glanced at the ministers with excitement on their faces, and said, "What major events have happened in the days when the widow has been absent from the court?"

"Your Majesty!"

Prime Minister Sima Yi first stood up and arched his hands: "There are two main events:

First, the Three Jin Dynasty coalition forces came to invade our Yucheng County, and General Xue Rengui shot and killed the generals of Zhao, Wei and Han with three arrows at Yucheng Pass, which collapsed the morale of the enemy army, and led the Qin army to defeat the enemy army;

Second, the state-level monopoly of paper in Daqin Paper Mill has been auctioned off, and 20 major businessmen participated in the auction, with a total of 14 million taels of silver. ”

The prime minister's words fell, and the Manchu ministers were shocked.

What they were shocked was not that Xue Rengui had defeated the Three Jin Alliance, they already knew that.

The ministers were shocked that a paper monopoly sold 14 million taels of silver, which was almost equivalent to the financial and tax revenue of Daqin for a year!

When King Qin learned the second point, his face also showed surprise.

He didn't expect to be able to auction so many silver taels.

According to Ying Zheng's estimate, it would be good to shoot eight or nine million taels.

When he came back to his senses, he laughed and said, "Okay, Prime Minister, you did a very good job!"

Then, Ying Zheng said majestically: "Spread the edict of the widow: General Xue Rengui fixed the jade city with three arrows, defeated the three Jin coalition forces, and made outstanding achievements, and the widow specially named him the general of the three grades of Shenwei, and gave him a set of silver armor!

"No!" Lang Zhongling said respectfully, and wrote it down for a while to draft the edict.

Ying Zheng glanced at the ministers and continued: "In addition, an edict has been issued to all the powerful countries in the east: Great Qin has no intention of going east to fight for hegemony in the Central Plains, please rest assured! Otherwise, Great Qin will definitely start a war with it at all costs!"

Qin's annexation of the dog Rong seemed to be incomparable for a while, but the king of Qin did not swell, and he clearly knew that there were still many problems within Qin that had not been solved, and he was not ready to be the enemy of the world.

The dog has just been extinguished, and for this piece of fat, it is still necessary to digest it slowly for a period of time;

The thirty-six wealthy clans within Great Qin have not yet been resolved;

A large number of cavalry had not yet been trained;

Finally, there is the issue of food.

This year's drought in Longxi has sounded the alarm for Yingzheng, and if Qin's large-scale drought occurs in Qin's country at the moment of its large-scale foreign war, it will be fatal.

If there is no food to feed the people, there will be chaos in the country.

He plans to spend a year or two to deal with internal problems, build Dujiangyan, and popularize sweet potatoes in a large area, and then show the fangs of Daqin to Shandong Zhuqiang.

Either the King of Qin will not fight, or he will win the battle!

"No!" Lang Zhongling quickly jotted down again.

When the prime minister heard His Majesty's two edicts, he arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty is Shengming!"

King Qin's second edict was particularly good.

This edict showed the eastern states that Qin only wanted to develop on its own western territory and had no intention of competing for hegemony in the Central Plains.

In this way, it can avoid the Shandong states, because of Qin's annexation of the dog Rong's national strength, and become uneasy, and finally join forces to resist Qin.

This is tantamount to giving Shandong countries a reassurance.

In addition, the king of Qin also warned the kingdoms that Qin doesn't want to mess with you, so don't come to provoke Qin, otherwise, you won't die.

With such a combination of grace and power, as long as you want to come to Shandong, as long as you have a normal brain, you will not come to fight against Qin.

The other ministers also bowed their hands to His Majesty: "Your Majesty Shengming!"

Ying Zheng said: "If you have a morning play, you will retreat without a book!"

The ministers have nothing important, and His Majesty has just returned, so he will no longer play.

The ministers withdrew from the court one after another.

Ying Zheng said: "The prime minister stays and follows the widow to the imperial study." ”

"No!" Sima Yi said respectfully.

When he came to the imperial study, Ying Zheng stood at the window with his hands behind his back, and said without replying: "Zhongda, how is the internal fighting of the thirty-six wealthy clans going?"

This matter is inconvenient to ask in the court, and there are officials from the proud clan in the court.

"Your Majesty, after the thirty-six wealthy clans heard that His Majesty had won a great victory over the dog Rong, the battle became less intense.

They should be afraid that the Qin royal family will clean up the dog and increase their strength greatly, so they will come back to clean them up. So it's better to choose to conserve your strength for the time being and postpone the battle later!" replied Sima Yi respectfully.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth: "A group of old foxes! How many troops do they have?"

"During this time, the Hao clans fought each other, and more than 40,000 people were killed and wounded, and now there should be 120,000 troops. Sima Yi said.

Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "120,000 people!"

If this force is against the royal family in the Qin State, it is still extremely terrifying.

"It would be great if this power could be used by the widows!" Ying Zheng muttered to himself.

These private armies kept by the Hao clan are also well-trained and well-equipped, but they are less tempered on the battlefield, and even then they are elite.

It would be a pity if they were all allowed to die in internal strife.

Ying Zheng thought for a while, looked at Sima Yi and said, "Zhongda, you and Ji Gang's people closely monitor the thirty-six wealthy clans, and if there is any situation, report to the widow at any time." ”

"No!" Sima Yi said and left.

Ying Zheng looked out the window at the sky and clouds, and his thoughts flowed.

He wanted to wait for the cavalry of Tianlu Peak to be trained and Daqin had a strong enough deterrent power, and then he would use the momentum of ploughing the court to sweep the caves and solve the thirty-six wealthy clans.

It is naturally best to be able to return those private troops to the royal family.

If you can't, you can only kill them all ruthlessly!

"Ding Dong! Congratulations to the host, you have wiped out the dog Rong, which has increased the love and support of the people of Qin by 10%. ”

Soon, the sound of the system sounded in King Qin's mind.

When he heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Increase the popularity by 10%, and the national fortune value will increase a lot!

......

After dinner, Ying Zheng stretched his waist and prepared to continue reading "Heavenly Creations".

"Your Majesty, the eunuch from the respectful room has come to deliver the sign!" Lang Zhongling reminded softly.

Ying Zheng said: "Let him in!"

"No!" Lang Zhong ordered to withdraw.

Soon, the father-in-law of the respectful room took the jade tray and the exquisite wooden plaque and sent it to the King of Qin, and said respectfully: "Please turn over the plaque to Your Majesty!"

"Don't turn it over, let the teacher and beauty sleep. Ying Zheng's eyes rolled and said: "By the way, let her bring Fuxi, the widow wants to listen to the piano!"

"No!" "Father-in-law said loudly: "Tonight, the beauty of the Tianyin Pavilion will sleep!"
