It was already dark, and the masked woman and others who had run into the forest also disappeared into the woods, and the people who chased them out from behind still chased in.

Late at night, Wei Feng, the chief guard of Daliang City, thought of the people who went out of the city at noon, and always felt that something was wrong, and muttered: "Qi merchants? Country... No, I'm guarding the West City Gate, and if the merchants of Qi Kingdom want to return to Qi Kingdom, they should also leave from the North City Gate or the East City Gate, how can they face the West City Gate?"

Thinking of this, he hurriedly got up and got dressed, this matter is too abnormal and the stakes are very important, and he also heard that Fan Tong, the doctor in charge of the classics in Daliang City, is missing, maybe it is related to this matter, so he must report to Daliang Ling overnight.

As soon as Wei Feng opened the door, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, his eyes widened, and he fell unwillingly, without even screaming.

After the fifth watch, the rooster crowed sound, dispelling the darkness, and the sky gradually brightened, and soon Daliang City was already bright.

At the west gate, the guards guarding the city gate guarded the passage of the city gate under the leadership of Wei Feng and checked all pedestrians entering the city.

At this time, a car came from the west, followed by four or five cavalry, and came to the gate of the city, Wei Feng personally checked the car, and then let his subordinates let him go.

The four horsemen who were driven and escorted went straight to the 'Heaven and Earth' inn, entered it, and never went out again.

At noon, the entire Daliang City dispatched many soldiers, heading to the west, south, and north, with some but fewer in the east, and the west being the focus.

The edict of the king of Wei also reached all cities and checkpoints, and all suspicious people were arrested.

The first day of Daliang City passed in this shocking atmosphere, and the next day, Wei Feng, the guard general in the west of the city, disappeared, causing the alarm of the people above, and dug up his body in the backyard of Wei Feng's house, sealed his throat with a sword, and died.

Da Liang Ling was in charge of the security and some defense of Da Liang City, and because of Fan Tong's disappearance, he was also scolded by King Wei in the palace. Wei Feng was killed again, he suspected that it might be related to Fan Tong's disappearance, summoned the guards in the west of the city, and asked if there was any abnormality in the people who entered and exited the city gate in the past few days, and the guards all said no, the day before Wei Feng died, Wei Feng had abnormalities, and the guards also said no, these answers made Liang Ling unhappy for a while, and finally it was gone.

Although Xinlingjun didn't know everything about King Wei, he also knew some, and the matter of King Wei's sending troops and issuing edicts naturally couldn't hide it from him, and about the West City Gate, Daliang Ling was afraid of King Wei's punishment, so he told Xinlingjun.

After hearing this, Xin Lingjun also felt strange, so he told some of his doormen that there were only two possibilities for the doormen to analyze the matter. First, Fan Tong is missing, what does Wei Feng know, he was killed and killed. Second, this incident happened two days after Fan Tong's disappearance, it may be that a suspect entered the city from the west of the city, Wei Feng noticed that something was wrong, and was killed.

As soon as Wei Wuji heard that it was reasonable, he sent someone to investigate some pedestrians and merchants who entered the city on the day of the accident, and there was no problem, only the car that entered the 'Heaven and Earth' inn could not be found.

Although heaven and earth are just an inn, there are too many involved, even if he is the son of Wei, the innkeeper does not give face.

Wei Wuji had no choice but to report his speculation to King Wei, who felt that Wei Wuji was mocking him with this matter, and replied that he knew that he actually hated it to death in his heart.

After Wei Wuji left the palace, King Wei said to the left and right, "Do you think what Xinling Jun said is true?"

Left and right said: "Your Majesty, the 20 million stone grain delivered to the Qin State this time, the heavens and the earth have not made a small contribution, if the king has no evidence because of Xinlingjun, he will send someone to search the inn in the heavens and on earth, I am afraid that it will damage the prestige of the king." ”

King Wei thought about it, the person who rescued Sun Wu would be so stupid, he was not busy running for his life, but returned to Daliang City to die.

At this time, he said: "The boss of heaven and earth knows that my king likes jewelry and jade, so he specially dedicates the small one to my king." ”

As soon as he heard that there were jewels and jade, King Wei was overjoyed and forgot everything.

Wei Wuji, who left the palace of King Wei, sighed, although King Wei said in front of him that he knew that he would send someone to investigate, how could he not see that King Wei was perfunctory to him.

Thinking about it, Wei Wuji, as the Xinling Jun of Wei Guo, since he can't move an inn, he feels aggrieved and terrifying at the same time when he thinks about it.

Although heaven and earth are just inns, it is centered on itself, weaving an invulnerable network of power linked by interests. The annual income of heaven and earth is an astronomical amount, and the beneficiaries of these benefits are not only heaven and earth, but also up to the king of Wei and down to the common people. You can imagine what a terrifying net.

It can be said that moving the heavens and the earth is moving the interests of countless people in the entire Wei State, and no matter how powerful he believes in Lingjun, he will hit the stone with an egg.

He remembered another rumor, saying that the person behind the scenes in heaven and earth was Ying Zheng, thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing at himself, how big Ying Zheng is, and besides, businessmen and commerce are just cheap industries in the eyes of these people, and they won't even touch it, let alone run it. He thought to himself that this kind of news must have come from the people of the Six Kingdoms, in order to slander Yingzheng, such means were too unbearable in his opinion.

King Wei searched for more than 20 days, found nothing, and was furious, but finally failed.

Five days later, an ordinary car left heaven and earth, and left the north gate of the city to the north.

At this time, in Weijiazhuang, in a boudoir, there was a person lying unconscious, still scarred on his body, and under the couch where he was lying, the black and white two swords hidden hidden by the sharp sword light.

Time is the most worthless, but it is something that money can't buy, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Xianyang City, Xianyang Palace, in the study.

Ying Zheng sat behind the desk, holding the book, and a black gas condensed into a figure in front of his bookcase, the figure knelt on one knee, clasped his hands into fists and said: "The black guard is the lord." ”

Hearing the words of the black shadow, Ying Zheng's eyes still fell on the book, and after the tea time, he put down the book and said, "The alliance of the six countries is still so close?"

The man in black bowed his head and said, "Your Lord, a year has passed, and the kings of the six kingdoms have gradually let go of their vigilance against Great Qin, and the contact with the countries is no longer so close. ”

Ying Zheng smiled disdainfully: "The tiger no longer comes out of the mountain, and the sheep think that the tiger is asleep, and gradually forget its threat, and only care about competing for the fat grass." ”

"In that case, why didn't Lone even fulfill them, and spread a message from within the Six Kingdoms, saying: 'If you want to contend with the Qin State, the best way is not to unite the Six Kingdoms, but to appear a powerful country as powerful as the Qin State. Didn't they all lack a reason to fight against each other, so they gave them Lonely. ”

The man in black bowed again: "No." ”

Then he said: "On the lord, Xuan Jian has become Wei Yong's minions, killing several powerful people in Wei for him, and also combining with Wei Yong's daughter Wei Qianqian, Wei Qianqian is now pregnant. ”

Ying Zheng frowned, and said coldly: "Lone's sword doesn't need feelings, let alone a wife and children. ”

"No. ”

The man in black turned into a cloud of black qi and dissipated out of thin air.

In a year's time, the development of Qin is very fast, Zheng Guoqu is about to be completed, Zheng Guoqu is repaired, Qin's Guanzhong Plain is not rich, and Qin has Shu County and Guanzhong, the two countries of abundance, and the people of Qin have no worries.

Moreover, with Xianyang City as the center, led by the Ministry of Industry, the official road to Hanguguan in the north, Longxi County in the west, and Shu County in the southwest has been widened a lot, and some roads have been built.

Ying Zheng built another legion in addition to the Killing God Legion, called the 'Xuanwu Legion', with Sima Cuo as the commander of the legion, and Wang Jian and Meng Mingshi as the deputy commanders, with a total of 100,000 people.

Hanoi County has a large camp of River County, which is garrisoned by 100,000 soldiers led by Sima Cuo.

The deputy commander of the God Killing Legion is the original Wang Qi and the new Huo Quzhi, and the God Killing Legion is also stationed in the camp of Taiyuan County with 100,000 soldiers.

The border between Qin and Chu was Changsha County of the Qin State, with a large camp in Changsha, which was garrisoned by 100,000 troops led by Zhang Tang and Wang Ling.

The land of Bashu also took away 50,000 soldiers, leaving 50,000 guards, and 50,000 soldiers were transferred to the Lantian camp, plus the newly recruited 100,000, a total of 150,000 troops, which were presided over by the old general Huan Qi.

The Qin State recruited 100,000 Qin people this year, plus the young and strong slaves exchanged for the Six Kingdoms, a total of 200,000 people. Together with the 100,000 cavalry of Xichuan and the two southwestern counties, the Qin State had a total of 600,000 troops.

In addition to exchanging iron tools with the Six Kingdoms, the Qin State also purchased iron ore from the Six Kingdoms, and these things were transported back to the Qin State and were used by the Ministry of Industry to make iron.

In accordance with Yingzheng's intentions, the Ministry of Industry has made all iron tools into armor, long swords, long ges and other sharp weapons of war, and after completion, they will be checked by the Ministry of War, and then transported to the three large battalions outside the customs for the soldiers to change.

There is no need for Ying Zheng to worry about internal affairs, although Shang Ying has not returned, but a year ago he will Guan Zhong 'invited' into the cabinet, starting from a small official, and allowed him to have the right to approve the recital, a year, although he is still a small official, but his ability is also recognized by Cai Ze and others, and in two or three years, Ying Zheng can promote him to the cabinet elder.

The biggest change is still the Ministry of Officials, Li Si and Wang Juan set up four divisions, each of which is very important, and the implementation of the merit system, although it will not make the Ministry of Officials busy, but it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes, I never thought that the two of them not only did a beautiful job, but also let the Ministry of Officials in the court out of the limelight.

Let Yingzheng secretly be proud, it is a wise decision for him to choose two people to be in charge of the ministry.

The people of the court have their own duties, and what he, the king of Qin, has to do is to control the overall situation and the general direction of the development of the Qin state.

At this moment, Zhao Gao came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Lord of the Imperial Palace, and the Lord of Zhuge Mansion are already waiting for the King in the Military Aircraft Pavilion. ”

Yingzheng got up and said, "Let's go." ”

"No" Zhao Gao followed behind.

Out of the study, Ying Zheng said lightly: "It's time for the black and white Xuanjian to return to his position." ”

Zhao Gao bowed down again and said, "The slaves obey orders." ”。

Then Ying Zheng stopped talking and took Zhao Gao to the Military Aircraft Pavilion.

Over the past year, the Military Aircraft Pavilion has been deploying the battle plan for the destruction of the Six Nations every day, and now it only has a framework.
