Chapter 671: Spur
Even though he was very excited in his heart, and even had a feeling of pride, Yinggao naturally couldn't let the officials and generals under his command feel that they could take a vacation, and he didn't want to let Daqin's court become a breeding ground for hedonism when he hadn't enjoyed it for long.
So, when he saw that the officials below were already a little drunk under the cups and lamps, Ying stood up with his wine bottle in his hand, obviously having something to say.
In fact, on such an occasion, Yinggao's words have not been much, he just likes to say an opening sentence, and then it's time for other people to drink and have fun, so whenever Yinggao stands up, there must be something big to say, at that time there was a quiet down, and people were waiting for Yinggao.
"Now that I'm Great Qin, all the stronger ones among the foreign enemies have been wiped out, this is indeed a fact, but the princes must not slack off on political affairs because of this!"
Yinggao said this, looked up and looked around, and found that the officials below were indeed all listening with serious expressions, so he nodded slightly, of course, it is not the time for these officials to get carried away, so Yinggao also knows that it must be the most useful to remind them to beat them at this time.
"The ability of my Great Qin army is indeed unrivaled in this world, but in internal affairs, it is still very far behind, which is naturally related to the division that the Central Plains has experienced for a long time, even today, there are still many people who do not think that they are Great Qin people, but think that they are Chu people, Zhao people, Yan people, these are not something that can be changed overnight, but let all the people in the Central Plains recognize the rule of Great Qin, and praise the rule of Great Qin, but it is a burden that must be completed on the princes, I have almost no important wars outside, I have time, I haven't been to a few places in the great rivers and mountains of Great Qin, so I will start patrolling after a little rest, if the people on any territory are not satisfied with my rule, or which county guard, the county commander is showing off his might on his own territory, then don't blame me for being unkind, I will give myself a better salary, but you must also speak with your own achievements and the satisfaction of the people, otherwise, After the imperial examination every year, there are a lot of talents waiting for the position under the buttocks! ”
These spilling words, coupled with the fact that they came out of the mouth of the emperor Yinggao of Great Qin, did sound the alarm for these officials of Great Qin, of course Yinggao knew that people were inert, and now that there was no pressure from the outside world, Yinggao could only give them a little pressure by himself.
For those magistrates, the most important thing is the emperor's patrol, and they have all heard of what Yinggao's patrol is like, and people will not tell you how long in advance as the first emperor did, and then let you do those hospitality work that costs people and money.
The characteristic of the patrol is that I don't know when I will appear at the door of a boss's surname, and then when the people don't understand what is going on, they have already made a series of questions such as what kind of place this place is, and whether the people are doing well in this place.
If this place is not much different from Yinggao's previous expectations, maybe the officials of this place will receive some praise, but once the people of this place are living in dire straits, and the officials are still blindly enjoying themselves, then he is not far from building the Great Wall.
In addition to being willing to go on patrol, Yinggao is also very willing to introduce a new policy, I have to say that the new policy for the people's life is indeed huge, but every time a new policy is implemented, local officials will have to suffer for a period of time.
In this era, everyone is basically used to working the same, once there is something new, it must be in a hurry for a while, after all, it needs a process of adaptation, right?
And Yinggao's routine is to see that all parts of this new deal are almost adapting to it, so well, let's have another one.
Although many officials of Daqin did not dare to say it, they were extremely puzzled in their hearts, what they wanted to know was how many things were in Yinggao's head, so that he could come up with so many new policies.
Naturally, they don't know that Yinggao's head contains the history of the next two thousand years, although it can't be said to be exhaustive, but of course, most of the ones that have been passed down are also the dross and the essence of it.
This banquet, on the whole, was carried out in a happy situation, and most of the time Yinggao also looked kind, but he knocked the officials under his command at the right time, saving them from misunderstanding the current form after returning home, and making a choice that made them hold a grudge for life.
The day after the end of this banquet, Ying Gao directly announced the appointment of Captain Han Xin in the court, and at the same time, Meng Yi, who took the initiative to give up the position of Captain, retained all the benefits of the same specifications as the Captain according to Ying Gao, and even if Meng Yi wanted to come to the court, as long as he reported it a day in advance, he could do it at any time.
It's like taking a back seat in many units in the future generations of Yinggao, you can participate when you are happy, if you want to enjoy Qingfu at home, then there is no problem at all.
There is also the appointment of Xiang Yu, which was also officially issued in the court, according to Yinggao, Xiang Yu can rest in Xianyang City for a period of time, and he will assign a mansion to Xiang Yu in Xianyang City, so that as long as Xiang Yu wants to come to Xianyang City, it can be done at any time.
Yinggao's purpose in doing this Xiang Yu naturally understood, it was nothing more than to give Xiang Yu a relatively relaxed environment, so that Xiang Yu could be the county guard in Huiji County, but it was just to make Xiang Yu more comfortable when he was active in Jiangdong, and he didn't dare to go to him for trouble.
As for whether Xiang Yu will really take care of the affairs of Huiji County, Yinggao doesn't care very much, even if Xiang Yu doesn't want to stay in Huiji County for a day, but always wants to stay in Xianyang City, Yinggao will definitely meet his condition.
In addition, this time, whether it is the generals who followed Han Xin and Yinggao to go out on the expedition, or the officials who stayed in Xianyang City, basically all of them were rewarded by Yinggao, which meant that the rain and dew were evenly wet, which made everyone very happy, after all, they all knew that Yinggao was a person with clear rewards and punishments, and if you did something wrong, he would definitely punish you, but if you did a good job, the reward would definitely be indispensable.
On the night after the end of the court, Yinggao invited Xiang Yu and Yu Ji to Xianyang Palace alone, and there was no one else who participated in this banquet, only Yinggao and his two wives, a son, and Han Xin and Yangzi.
Xiang Yu and Yu Ji looked at this posture, and some of the worries in their hearts disappeared at that time, Xiang Yu had always thought that Yinggao would treat him the same as Philip V and Antiochus III, anyway, they were all given a mansion in Xianyang City, you just stay here honestly.
But being able to bring his wife to dine with Yinggao and his wives is enough to show that he and Yinggao, the Great Qin Emperor, have a slightly different status in their hearts.
Xiang Yu didn't believe that Ying Gao would be able to invite Philip V or Antiochus III to his own hall in Xianyang Palace for dinner.
During the banquet, Yinggao also did not mention the unhappiness between them before a certain point, but he was very respectful of Xiang Yu and Han Xin's very skillful cooperation and strategy since they attacked the Peacock Dynasty, and half-jokingly said to Xiang Yu that although he could live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes after arriving in Jiangdong, he could not let himself waste his martial arts and forget his own military books and war strategies.
These hints made Xiang Yu understand some of Yinggao's intentions, that is, if there is really a day when there is a foreign war in many years, Yinggao should still let himself go into battle, after all, they are currently less than thirty years old, and no one can say what will happen in ten years, and they all know that the war will come.
For Yinggao's hints, Xiang Yu of course accepted all the orders, he has never been a person who looks ahead and backwards, let alone a person who twists and turns, since he has absolutely given up the position of Shan Yu of the Huns, returned to the territory of Daqin, and accepted the position of the county guard of Yinggao's Huiji County, it shows that he really still regards himself as a person from the Central Plains, and furthermore, he still regards himself as a person from Daqin.
After making a promise to Yinggao that once Daqin had difficulties, he would definitely go into battle for Daqin, Xiang Yu still explained to Yinggao that what he hoped was to return to the boundary of Jiangdong as soon as possible, and he could take the position of county guard, but he really didn't want to take care of it, he explained to Yinggao that the position of the county guard still had to be done by Yinggao's own people, and he was just hanging a false name.
In fact, this kind of rhetoric, such a result is just a tacit understanding of the two, Xiang Yu knows that if he really does a tiger in the position of the county guard of Huiji County, there will definitely be nothing to do in a short time, but if the time is long, there are followers around him again, even if he has no other ideas, but if the people around him are just like that, it will be enough to choke, isn't it?
Rather than this, of course, it is better to follow his original plan, and Yu Ji and the two of them live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes in Jiangdong, of course, the money and food and clothing used in this life need to be paid by Yinggao, Xiang Yu also knows, Yinggao will be short of that money, of course he won't.
After a banquet of honor and guest of honor, Xiang Yu directly said goodbye to Yinggao, saying that he was going to leave for Huiji County the next day, and specially asked Yinggao to get some carriages and guards, of course, all of which were deliberately by Xiang Yu, which means that you can send more people to me at will, anyway, I just enjoy life, as for whether they will spy on me, I don't bother to care.
In the early morning of the next day, Xiang Yu took Yu Ji and Yu Ziqi to their destination Jiangdong, looking at Xiang Yu's chic back, Yinggao suddenly had an envious thought, and said that you don't have to worry about those chores, but you can take a beautiful woman to the place you want to go and live the life you want, but I always have things to deal with.
Of course, this is just the emotion of Ying Gao, of course he knows that if he is not an emperor like himself, Xiang Yu wants to live the life he is about to live now, but it is just a dream of eating people.
Everything you want, you have to rely on your own struggle to feel at ease, this is Yinggao has long understood the truth, and relying on other people's words, after all, will not be truly free, just like Xiang Yu, no matter what he says, or live in a place where Yinggao has the final say, all the freedom he gets, that is also based on his obedience to Yinggao's command.
After Xiang Yu left, Yinggao used a short period of time to learn about the implementation of the previous new policies on the territory of Daqin, and now the news he got let him know that it may not be the time to implement the new policies, and Daqin still needs to stabilize for a while.
And now that Great Qin has just captured a series of new places, it is foreseeable that after a year and a half, there will be a lot of people from places like the Mauryan Dynasty and Seleucus and Macedonia who have entered the territory of Great Qin.
On this day, the bored Yinggao was dining with his two wives, and suddenly he looked at his two ladies, and then whispered: "It's the height of summer now, and this Xianyang city is really suffocating, I wonder if the two ladies have any summer retreat they want to go?" ”
When Feng Qing and Tian Yan heard this, almost all of them laughed, but they didn't make a sound, and Ying Gao had to ask again when he saw this posture.
"Since you have a place you want to go in your heart, why do you ask each other like this, where do you want to go, just go and prepare, if you want me to follow, we just follow."
In terms of understanding Yinggao, it must be Feng Qing, who has been with him almost all these years, Yinggao saw that the little Jiujiu in his heart was seen through by Feng Qing, and hurriedly smiled, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence that what Feng Qing said before was right.
