Chapter 393: Ying Zheng returns to Great Qin
After more than two months of hurrying, Yingzheng's side finally arrived in the territory of Daqin.
Looking at the prosperous Lingnan, Ying Zheng sighed for a while.
Although he had never been to Lingnan, he knew that when he first knocked this side down, it was very poor and backward, and now it can catch up with Xianyang when he left.
"Emperor Taishang, Mengyang and the king have left." The guards ran in to report.
"Let them in." Zhao Qingrui asked the soldiers to be stationed in Lingnan, and Yingzheng was also clear, but the specific situation was not understood, so he just asked Wang Li about them.
Wang Jian is also very happy, in a few years, I don't know how far my grandson has grown, it's really exciting.
As the king walked in from them, Yingzheng's eyes lit up, these two boys looked stronger, and they haven't slacked off in the past few years.
"Meet the Emperor."
"No need to be polite, get up quickly, the widow has a lot of things to ask you." Ying Zheng said with a smile.
The two were also very happy to see Yingzheng and them come back, and ran over to greet them as soon as possible.
Ying Zheng asked about the changes in Daqin in the past few years and what are the major events.
The two of them knew everything, and directly said everything they knew.
With the understanding, several people are very shocked in their hearts, the development of Daqin is too fast, all parts of Daqin have been paved with cement roads, whether it is trade, or what to do, it is very convenient, which greatly promotes the development of the economy.
In recent years, there have been many factories all over Daqin, and a lot of technology has emerged, and a large number of jobs have been provided, making the life of Qianshou better.
In recent years, the agricultural tax has also been reduced a lot, and the leaders of the Qianqian have become more supportive of Daqin.
If you want to say that the best development, it is undoubtedly these cities near the sea.
Many docks were built in these cities to facilitate the passage of ships, and although the seas were risky, the benefits were considerable, attracting many merchants.
Of course, what Ying Zheng is most concerned about is what Zhao Qingrui has done during his reign in recent years, and whether he has done it well.
As the two of them spoke, Ying Zheng couldn't help nodding, worthy of being his daughter, he was completely relieved now.
"There are already people in the sect who are ready to come to Lingnan?" Ying Zheng said unexpectedly.
"Yes, it's the son of Yingyuan, does the emperor want to see him?" Wang Li said respectfully.
"No need, Qingrui can let him come over, I think I already know it in my heart." Ying Zheng shook his head, not ready to care about these things.
Where these people are divided and what they want to do, he knows in his heart, Zhao Qingrui has already told him.
This time, five princes and kings were selected, and they could try it first, if they did it well, they would definitely be able to inspire a lot of people in the future, which would also give those capable clans a little more choice.
Ying Zheng came back, and came back with a swagger, Ying Yuan was in the yard he bought, and when he heard the news, the whole person was stunned, but he didn't expect Ying Zheng to come back from Lingnan.
"Big brother, are we going to visit?" Yingshu hesitated.
"Go, let people get ready, and it'll be over early tomorrow morning." Ying Yuan pondered for a while, and felt that it was still necessary to go and meet Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng is different from Zhao Qingrui, his prestige is extremely high in the clan.
If Yingzheng is still in power, they will never dare to make a mistake.
And Zhao Qingrui, her succession, in their opinion, is not in line with the patriarchal inheritance, but she does not have much psychological burden, and there are suitable reasons.
Yingzheng is the eldest son of King Zhuang Xiang, and King Zhuang Xiang even recognized the Empress Dowager Huayang as his mother, which also represents the legal system of Yingzheng.
Zhao Qingrui is a woman, and there are so many brothers and sisters above her, and she is not incapable, just because of Yingzheng's selfishness, she became the emperor of Great Qin, and these people are naturally unwilling.
Yingyuan and their clans, in fact, have not much contact with Yingzheng, you must know that most of the clans supported Cheng Gongzi at the beginning, if it wasn't for King Zhuang Xiang's insistence on recognizing the position of his eldest son, Yingzheng would not be able to sit in that position.
Ying Zheng led Daqin to unify the world and make Daqin stronger, and they were also convinced in their hearts.
On the second day, Ying Zheng was going to rest here for two days before leaving, and by the way, he ate Daqin's food, but he didn't expect to hear the news that Ying Yuan and them were coming.
There is no palace built here, but they live in a courtyard here, and the three of them sit together, eating hot pot, not to mention how much fun it is to come back.
"What are they doing here? Let them in. Ying Zheng felt a little disappointed, but let them in.
Soon, Ying Yuan and the three of them came in, and after seeing Ying Zheng, several people couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts, Ying Zheng's face had not changed at all compared with a few years ago.
There have been many people who have rumored it before, saying that Yingzheng has found a way to live forever.
Now his appearance seems to prove his original guess.
Thinking of this, Ying Yuan couldn't help but shrink back, if this was true, as long as Ying Zheng was there, they really didn't dare to make trouble.
Is there really a god in this world? Or when the vassal states are almost stable, he will also send people to look for it?
"Meet the Emperor." The three of them hurriedly saluted respectfully.
Ying Yuan's heart was hot, and he didn't know if he could know some news of the gods from Ying Zheng.
"Flatten, have you had lunch? Would you like to eat a little together? Ying Zheng asked lightly.
It's still not like the emperor is living comfortably, no one is always watching, and there is no endless government affairs to deal with, you can do whatever you want, and you don't have to deliberately maintain all kinds of etiquette.
Ying Zheng has a casual attitude, and he has been accustomed to this kind of free and casual life in recent years, and he also likes this kind of life.
"I've already used it, thank you for the kindness of the Emperor." Several people hurriedly thanked them.
After arriving in Lingnan, the weather here was hotter than Xianyang, and they were a little unaccustomed to it.
"Okay, why do you want to come to the widow? Doesn't that mean you're preparing to attack your own territory? Ying Zheng asked lightly.
Ying Zheng really knew about it, and most of it was Mengyang who said it.
Isn't he the one who hates separations the most? Wang Juan, the prime minister who previously agreed to the separation, was also dismissed, and Chun Yuyue was even more marginalized.
His reaction was not right, Ying Zheng even took the initiative to mention the vassal states, which was too abnormal.
"Emperor Hui, I have almost prepared, and now I am in the run-in with General Wang Li, just waiting for the attack on the Mauryan Dynasty after the beginning of the next year." Ying Yuan said seriously.
"That's fine, that's fine." Ying Zheng nodded, Ying Zheng also knew the restrictions on the number of troops given by the imperial court to the princes and kings, and he also wanted those soldiers to volunteer, and he didn't know how these people were arranged on this side of the army?
"By the way, you're almost ready here, how are they preparing for Fusu? DID YOU KNOW? Ying Zheng inquired about the news of Fusu.
Fusu was actually willing to be a prince king, and Yingzheng was quite surprised.
Originally, he and Zhao Qingrui had similar ideas, thinking that Fusu would develop in Dali Temple in the future, and gradually move to the position of important ministers in the court, and they all had high hopes for him.
"The situation on the side of Prince Fusu should be soon, but Princess Heyue still has a lot to prepare." Ying Yuan took the tea brought by the maid and talked about what he knew.
"Heyue, when the widow goes back, help her." Ying Zheng thought about Heyue's situation for a while, this daughter's sense of existence is too low, but this time he has the courage to make such a decision, and he appreciates her a little more in his heart.
Heyue is his daughter, and it just so happens that there are a lot of things in his private vault, except for most of them left for Zhao Qingrui, the rest are good for Heyue.
As for the other sons, forget it, they have hands and feet, even if these people were not cultivated as heirs before, he also valued them, and hoped that they would be able to assist Fusu in the future.
It's a pity that these people can't compete with two women now, it's really useless.
Thinking of these sons who have not done much, Yingzheng is disgusted for a while.
"I heard that Your Majesty has invested some money and technology in Princess Heyue and Li." Ying Yuan told Ying Zheng what he knew.
"Qingrui still cares about family affection so much." Ying Zheng said with emotion.
Ying Yuan couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, she cared about her family affection, she had never been soft when she cleaned up the clan.
It is estimated that Zhao Qingrui also knew about the things he had done before, and his business had been greatly affected during this time, and he had shrunk a lot of suppression.
After thinking about it, he still felt that it was Zhao Qingrui's hand.
You must know that there are not many industries on Zhao Qingrui's face now, only those few Zhuangzi and bookstores, in fact, she has done a lot of business with Wang Xian Mengyu and them with money, and she has made a lot of money over the years.
Since the rise of various factories, many businessmen have built some factories, especially some large factories, which are particularly profitable.
"Your Majesty is benevolent." Yingyuan praised it against his will.
"You also think that Qingrui is too kind, and the widow also thinks that this child has grown up outside, and the widow has protected her too well, so that she has not studied well with the widow." Yingzheng's mood is up, this kid is good.
Ying Zheng knew that Zhao Qingrui was doing very well, otherwise how could Daqin have the prosperity it has now, these are things that he could not do in the past.
However, he just wanted to show off.
Yingyuan only felt that coming to the small courtyard here today was a wrong decision.
Ying Zheng is ordering him, right? Do you want him to be honest, or you'll clean him up in advance?
Thinking of this, Yingyuan's heart sank.
Leaving this small courtyard, Yingyuan was a little top-heavy, and a bunch of Zhao Qingrui's exploits and her words of benevolence echoed in his mind.
It's all Yingzheng boasting, so he doesn't know what to say.
And in the small courtyard, Wang Jian saw that people were leaving, so he laughed, "Young son Yingyuan, your heart is not small." ”
"What if the heart is big, it's easy for Qingrui to clean him up." Ying Zheng wiped his mouth calmly, Daqin's food was delicious.
"The Emperor Taishang knocked him a little, thinking that he would be honest in the fief in the future." Gan Luo also saw Yingyuan's purpose.
Didn't they just want to find out the attitude of the First Emperor, they already knew about it, and they were also very clear about the pros and cons of it.
Zhao Qingrui's sealing is not done casually, just look at Yingyuan's separation, you can see that this kid's future has been limited to that piece of land.
If he is not honest, the princes and kings around him will be able to attack him.
At present, looking at His Majesty's investment in Princess Heyue and Li, what kind of cooperation she has reached between the princes and kings of the two women, Your Majesty will definitely not suffer.
And Heyue and Li, they have received the favor of His Majesty, and they must be closer to His Majesty, in addition to them, there is also Fusu Gongzi, even if Yingyuan is close to another prince and king, it will not change anything.
"It's hard to say, this kid is ambitious, and when he returns to Xianyang, the widow has to carefully advise Fusu." Ying Zheng said calmly.
"The old minister thinks that there is nothing to worry about, Your Majesty will not give them bird guns and cannons, even if they have the heart, they are powerless." Wang Jian said with a smile.
"It's still going to be guarded, if they get it, take it to study, study something, it's hard to guarantee that they won't be ambitious again." Ying Zheng is still quite wary of Ying Yuan, and when the time comes, let the Fusu faction keep an eye on him a little more.
"What the Emperor said is that you must not be guarded against."
The fleet rested in Lingnan for a few days, then re-embarked on the return journey and returned to Xianyang on a large ship.
In recent years, the strong rise of water transportation has widened the rivers in Daqin a lot, allowing more large ships to pass and the waterways to be smoother.
Ying Zheng looked at the changes in Daqin, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
On the way, you can also see some places building dikes, some places digging reservoirs, and construction everywhere, but there is no numbness on the face of the head of Qian, who was in charge of it at the beginning.
Looking at these people again, they are all full of energy, and they don't have the skinny appearance of Qianshou he saw before, and it can be seen that they have lived a good life in the past few years.
"Great Qin has changed so much." Ying Zheng said with emotion.
"Your Majesty, she is eloquent." Gan Luo said with a smile, he also taught Zhao Qingrui for a period of time, even if he didn't have the name of the emperor, he was recorded by Taishi, thousands of years later, there should be many people who still remember him, right?
"Emperor Taishang, I have inquired clearly, the person who manages the reservoir digging here is Li Yu, the head of the water conservancy construction department in the Ministry of Industry, and he is currently sent by His Majesty to summon the head of the Qianshou to dig the reservoir to store water, if there is a drought, the water will be released from the reservoir, and if it is waterlogged, the water will be diverted to the reservoir for storage." Wang Jian came over and told Ying Zheng the news that he had asked people to check.
After hearing the role of the reservoir, Wang Jian was amazed, why didn't they think of it at the beginning, so that they didn't have to worry about drought and flooding.
"It's still Qingrui who has ideas, this reservoir is of great use to my Daqin." Ying Zheng's eyes also lit up.
"Not only that, if you have a lot of water stored here, you can also raise fish here, and I believe there are many fishermen who are willing." Ganro looked at the endless reservoir in front of him.
"Fish farming, that's really good." Ying Zheng approvingly, if such a large area is used for fish farming, it will definitely make a lot of money.
