The Huns were defeated and retreated, and the leader did not know whether he was alive or dead!

In the quiet study, with Yingzheng's words, Li Si, Wei Yi, Wang Juan and others were all in a daze, and they never expected to hear such news.

Who could have imagined that the Hun army went south and ended up like this.

"Your Majesty! Can you be sure that this message was sent by Yanmen?"

Li Si groaned and bowed to Yingzheng.

Ying Zheng heard Li Si's inquiry, and ordered Han Yu to come over with a bamboo slip and hand it over to Li Si and the others to watch.

A moment later.

After reading the bamboo slips sent by Yanmen, Li Si, Wei Yi and others glanced at each other, and they could still see the surprise in each other's eyes, except for the chaos of the Yue Clan, they didn't expect that in this battle, Yanmen rode on the side, so brave in the hands of Bai Yan.

At this time, when they came back to their senses, the ministers inadvertently saw Zhan Lu placed on the sword seat not far from the study, and it was not clear why it was.

Obviously, the king is going to reward Bai Yan!

"Now that the Xiongnu and the Yue clan have suffered a great loss of vitality, they will definitely not be able to go south again in three or five years!"

Kui Zhuang looked at the huge map spread on the ground in front of him at this moment, turned his head to look at Ying Zheng, and raised his hand to salute.

"Your Majesty, the destruction of Wei is just around the corner!"

In Kui's short words, he directly said the idea of destroying Wei in the future.

Ying Zheng nodded when he heard Kui's words and looked at the map.

"Today, the widow summoned you to the temple to talk about it!"

Ying Zheng didn't hide it from Li Si, Kui Xiang and others, and directly said his ambitions and destroyed Wei!

Ying Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed to the map of Handan County north of Wei, Yingchuan County west of Wei, and then the Xiongnu territory north of Yanmen.

"The most important thing now is to find out the situation between the Yueshi and the Xiongnu, and when the time is ripe, the widow can order Yingchuan and Yanmen to send troops to attack and destroy Wei from the west and north."

Ying Zheng said.

When mentioning the destruction of Wei, Ying Zheng's eyes showed excitement and excitement.

In less than three years, first Han and then Zhao, and now Yan is destroyed, if Wei can be destroyed as soon as possible, only Chu and Qi will be left in the world in front of Qin.

The State of Qi does not stop fighting on the city wall, and the State of Chu is now fighting for power!

Qin ruled the world, and the lifelong wish of the Qin kings of the past dynasties was about to be realized in the hands of his Yingzheng.

"Your Majesty!"

After Li Si, Wang Juan and the others came back to their senses, looking at Yingzheng's appearance, Li Si thought about it and bowed his hand.

In Ying Zheng's gaze, Li Si thought about it and shook his head.

"Your Majesty, now that the officials of my Qin State are no longer enough, even if you kill Yan, it may be difficult to fill the official vacancies!"

Lees said.

With Li Si's words, Wei Yu and Wang Juan showed worries on their faces, and now in the Qin State, what is most lacking is not brave soldiers, generals who attack cities and seize land, but officials on one side.

The Qin State has no longer been able to transfer officials to the places that have just been captured, and those who can serve as officials in the Qin State must not only have the ability to manage a city (county) in an orderly manner, but also have the most important point, which is to know the Qin laws well.

Qin law is required for investigation and conviction, and Qin law is also required for logging and leaf harvesting.

As a legalist, Li Si knows very well that a place without Qin officials and Qin laws is unstable.

And Li Si, who is a court lieutenant, also knows better that the officials that Qin State can call now are far from enough, and in the past two years, the speed at which Qin State has annexed the world is too fast, so fast that even Li Si, who participated in the formulation of the plan to destroy the Six Kingdoms, did not expect it.

"If the original officials continue to be appointed, I am afraid that the matter of Peng Yi and Guo Yi will definitely appear in other places in the future."

Li Si said this, looking at the huge map beside him, looking at the diagram text drawn on it.

"What's more, if Qin destroys Yan and Wei, and there are no officials stationed there, as far as Qi and Chu are concerned, they will be at their fingertips!"

Li Si looked at the State of Qi and the State of Chu, and after two breaths, he looked at Ying Zheng.

In the study, because of Li Si's words, it was quiet again.

Ying Zheng's originally excited expression,

It no longer exists at this moment, and it is rare to show joy on his face, and he frowns again at this time.

The vacancy of officials has always been Yingzheng's heart disease.

Ying Zheng looked at the map in front of him, and when he looked at the territory of Qi State, a warm anger appeared in his eyes, there are so many corporal people in the world, but no one is willing to serve Qin State, and their long land, most of them, are in Qi State.

Recall that Mao Jiao mentioned the number of Qi Guoshi before......

"Can the widow destroy Qi first?"

Ying Zheng looked at the territory of Qi and asked softly.

"No, Your Majesty! Although Qi has no war, no soldiers are not repaired, and cities are not replenished, but for decades, the population of Qi has risen and fallen, and the national strength is rich, and if Qin attacks strongly, the gains outweigh the losses, and it will only make the originally neutral Qi State fall to the Chu State."

When Wei Yi heard Ying Zheng's thoughts, he was taken aback, and hurriedly gave up his hand to persuade him.

Wei Yi also knew that Ying Zheng was first annoyed by those thieves in Yingchuan, and now the practices of those scholars in the Qi State made it difficult for the Qin State to move an inch, and Ying Zheng had little patience.

For this, Wei Yi knew but was helpless, the world's scholars, mostly from Qi, although the Qi State and the Qin State were friendly, but those scholars and scholars in Qi had privately united, and more of them were to fight against the Qin State.

"Your Majesty! You can't attack them all!"

"Your Majesty, it's not a good choice to attack Qi!"

Inside the study.

With the current worries of the Qin State exposed, and even blocked Yingzheng's desire to destroy the Wei State, in the face of this problem that is difficult to solve at the moment, Li Si, Wang Juan and others also shook their heads, but they all knew that it was not a wise move to attack Qi.

After discussing for a long time to no avail, Ying Zheng asked Kui Zhuang to send someone to inquire about the effectiveness, and then asked Wang Juan, Kui Xiang and others to leave, leaving Li Si alone.

Listening to the news of the footsteps of Kui Zheng and the others leaving, everything was quiet again.

"Li Si, how are things going in Yingchuan now?"

Ying Zheng looked at Li Si who stayed behind and sighed deeply.

Maybe only in front of people who are convinced, Ying Zheng will show such a tired appearance, since the start of the war to destroy the country, all the pressure is on Ying Zheng, whether it is soldiers or grain, grass, government storage, these are visible expenses, not to mention, it is the continuous rebellion in the captured places, which makes Ying Zheng tired to deal with.

One thing is piled up, even Ying Zheng is a little exhausted.

"Your Majesty! We're all ready, just waiting for a chance!"

Li Si heard Ying Zheng's inquiry and said to Ying Zheng.

Yingchuan is a bureau set up by Yingzheng to Changping Jun, let Changping Jun leave the Qin court, Li Si understands that the destruction of Chu is imminent, and the Chu officials in the Qin court should not be too many.

Qin is respected by the right, Changping Jun is the right prime minister of Qin, and he is the head of the Chu officials of Qin, and Chang Wenjun, not to mention in other counties, is also quite prestigious, Lian Weiyi, Wang Juan and others, as well as the generals Meng Wu, Li Yao, Wang Qian, for Chang Wenjun, all admire Youjia, Longxi Li Xin, is Chang Wenjun's beloved disciple.

In fact, such a situation is difficult to ignore for the king of any country, let alone Yingzheng who is determined to destroy Chu.

Although he Li Si is a Chu official, his position is different, during the reign of Lü Buwei, he served with Yingzheng, and then his children all married with the royal family or sons, it can be said that he has always stood by Yingzheng's side.

Moreover, for the matter of Changping Jun, Li Si is not without selfishness, he is already in his fifties, more than half a hundred years old, unwilling to stop at Tingwei, as early as after getting the glory and wealth, Li Si thought that there will be a day in the future, such as the former Shang Ying, Zhang Zi and other famous appearances, passed down through the ages.

"Good!"

Ying Zheng heard Li Si's words, nodded, and put his mind at ease.

Looking at the vast map in front of him, Ying Zheng is full of complexity.

The most torturous thing is never that you can't get it, but that you can only wait helplessly when you see it getting closer.

If the world has been away for a long time, the few days when he finally has to return home, thinking of his relatives at home is the most difficult, but at this time, in front of his winning government, it is the long-cherished wish of the Qin kings of the past dynasties, but it is the first in the world

The great cause of unification, the four seas are one, and the world is returned to Qin.

Just by looking at it, you can go one step further.

"Your Majesty, Si took the liberty to ask the king, but he was ready to give Zhan Lu to General Bai, who had a great victory in Yanmen."

Li Si's words came suddenly, and when Ying Zheng heard this, his eyes turned from the map to the Zhan Lu in the distance, and nodded.

"The widow does mean so."

Ying Zheng said, and did not hide it from Li Si.

"Zhan Lu is the sword of benevolence, known as the good name of the king and good minister, the eldest son of the former famous minister once wore it, and the king gave it to Zhan Lu, the meaning of the instrument is fully displayed, and he has the courage to say it."

Li Si stood beside Ying Zheng and asked Ying Zheng.

When Ying Zheng heard this, he looked at Li Si in some surprise, not knowing what Li Si wanted to say.

"General Bai Yan is a disciple of the Bai Clan!"

Li Si said to Ying Zheng, his eyes looked at Ying Zheng, frank and open, without the slightest emptiness.

"Although rumors in the past are rumors, the king must not be on guard! Pingyang Bai Clan, after all, after Bai Qi, General Bai Yan is a member of the Bai Clan after all!"

Li Si looked at Ying Zheng and said what was in his heart.

In Li Si's eyes, his position has always been to stand on Ying Zheng, so now that he is standing on Ying Zheng's position, he must persuade Ying Zheng and must not favor Bai Yan too much.

Seeing Ying Zheng looking at him, Li Si's eyes did not dodge.

"The king is open-minded, Si knows that General Bai's actions before are also fortunate, but the death of Bai Qi in the past is known to the whole world, and the ministers are worried......

Li Si said this, as if he had unloaded the burden in his heart, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you worried about the Bai clan and Bai Yan?"

Ying Zheng heard Li Si's words, and asked softly without waiting for Li Si to finish speaking.

Lees shook his head.

"Your Majesty, what worries you is that this world is the world!"

Li Si explained, looking at Ying Zheng and bowing to Ying Zheng.

"Now that the Qin State has conquered all the countries, there are thieves everywhere, and there are countless thieves in secret, General Bai is not a sage! Rumors from the past may be inevitable in the future."

After saying this, Li Si didn't say much, for Li Si, there are so few sages in the world, and he Li Si is not counted, he Li Si went to Qin to seek glory and wealth, not to mention, the Bai clan is far from Bai Yan alone, and there are so many people in the Bai clan.

In the past, there have been people with hearts who spread the news in Xianyang.

This time, Ying Zheng doesn't mind, the Bai family has no dissent, so what about next time, what about next time, not to mention who can guarantee that no one secretly mentioned this matter in Bai Yan's ear in private, how could they know about those secret things.

What if Bai Yan has a different heart......

Li Si's purpose in saying these words right now is to hope that Ying Zheng can make some precautions against Bai Yan in his heart when he favors and values Bai Yan, and don't favor him too much, otherwise he may cause a big disaster in the future.

However, after finishing speaking, to Li Si's surprise, Ying Zheng didn't seem to care and smiled.

"Don't worry about that!"

Ying Zheng said casually, then turned his head and looked at the location of Yingchuan County on the map.

Li Si frowned slightly, looking at Ying Zheng's side face, a little puzzled, and his heart was full of doubts, but Li Si also knew that looking at Ying Zheng's attitude, Bai's matter, it was not a good opportunity to discuss it now, so it was better to wait for the opportunity in the future to advise Ying Zheng.

It's a pity that the sword of Zhang Xiang in the past!

Thinking of this, Li Si inadvertently looked at the sword with a dark body in the distance.

In the past, the eldest son, Zhang Yi, wore this sword.

.........

Day 2.

In Xianyang City, as the sky gradually brightened, hundreds of civil and military officials came to the Xianyang Palace in the dim sky.

The carriages of Qin officials stopped outside the palace, and one by one officials wearing Qin official uniforms stepped out of the carriage and saluted and chatted with their acquaintances.

And among the many officials, one of them was surrounded by many officials, and this official won by surprise

Straightforward.

As another carriage arrived, Bai Yu's figure stepped down from the carriage.

Seeing Bai Yu, many officials glanced at each other, their eyes full of mocking smiles.

"General White!"

Ying Kan saluted to the many officials around him, and then left, came to Bai Yu, and raised his hand to salute.

"Win your lord!"

When Bai Yu saw Ying Kan, he hurriedly returned the salute.

"Ying Kan has heard about the matter of Yanmen, General Bai Yu should not worry, General Bai Yan will be safe."

Ying Kan said to Bai Yu, comforting him softly.

"Thank you! Borrow and win the good words of the adults!"

Bai Yu said to Ying Kan with a grateful salute, looking at Ying Kan, Bai Yu already knew where something happened in Liyang, and he had the intention to let Ying Kan mourn, but he was worried about the pain point of Ying Kan.

After the ceremony.

When Bai Yu saw the other officials, when he saw the smiles in the eyes of some officials, a wave of warmth and anger appeared in Bai Yu's heart, fortunately, Bai Yu was not Bai Yan, and this was the capital Xianyang, otherwise those officials, Bai Yu might not dare to move.

Ying Kan naturally noticed Bai Yu's anger, thought of something, and glanced at the officials around him vigilantly.

"I have investigated Luoyin's fate, on the way to Xianyang before, it is said that in addition to Hu Yi, there are two other men accompanying Qu Yi, those two men are pseudonyms, if there is no accident, it should be Qu Yi killed by those two men."

Ying Kan looked at the officials around him and whispered to Bai Yu.

After experiencing the matter of Handan City's investigation of Zhujiaxiang, the doorman under the command of Ying Kan was also promoted, because where something happened in Liyang, Luoyin where Ying Kan was handed over to Xi to do, and Xi did not live up to Ying Kan, and finally found out some things.

And the reason why other officials should be jealous is that Ying Kan still doesn't know whether Xianyang's officials were involved in Qu Yi's death, and his purpose is to frame Bai Yan.

After escorting Wang to Handan and Liyang before, Ying Kan deeply understood a truth, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and it is right to be careful.

"If you can follow Qu Yi, you should be familiar with Qu Yi, why do you want to kill Qu Yi?"

When Bai Yu heard Ying Kan's story, his brows tightened, analyzing things in his heart, but he never understood why someone wanted to kill Qu Yi in Luoyin.

"Old Hu!"

Ying Kan didn't reply to Bai Yu at this time, noticed that Hu Lao of the Hu family was coming, and hurriedly raised his hand to Hu Lao.

The Hu family is the old family of the Qin State, although the people are not prosperous, but they are all in important positions, not to mention that Hu Lao is the secretary of the Qin State, the eldest son Hu Jinshang is the county lieutenant, that is, the second son Hu Mujing, and now after being transferred to Xianyang, he has also been reused, I heard that he is now writing and changing the Qin character with Li Si, and if you think about it, you will know that the status will definitely not be low in the future.

[In view of the general environment,

"Win your lord!"

Hu Lao saw Ying Kan and Bai Yu saluting him, and returned the salute.

With the conversation.

A moment later, with the arrival of Wang Juan, Wei Yu and others one after another, I thought it was the same as before, but to the surprise of all the officials, after Wang Juan and Wei Yu arrived, they went straight to Bai Yu.

This surprised all the officials who saw it, and even Hu Lao and Hu Jin were quite puzzled.

After all, Wang Juan and Wei Yu rarely took the initiative to talk to them except for something.

Then, in the eyes of everyone, Wang Juan and Wei Yu first saluted each other with Hu Lao, and then bowed their hands to Bai Yu with a smile on their faces.

"General Bai Yu, congratulations!"

Wang Juan said with a smile.

Hearing Wang Juan's words, Bai Yu was stunned, Ying Kan and Hu Lao glanced at each other, full of doubts, and all the officials around him were also confused, not understanding what Wang Juan meant.

Where does the joy come from?

Just under Bai Yu's puzzled gaze, Wei Yu smiled.

"Yesterday, there was a great victory in Yanmen, General Bai Yan led the side cavalry, killed more than 26,000 Xiongnu heads, and the Xiongnu fled north. . .

....」

Wei Yu explained to Bai Yu that he would inform Bai Yu of the news of Yanmen yesterday, and if Wei Yu guessed correctly, Yingzheng would be promoted to a knighthood and rewarded in front of hundreds of civil and military officials today.

As a national lieutenant, when he sees Bai Yu now, he might as well inform Bai Yu in advance.

"What?"

When Bai Yu heard Wei Yu's words, he stared directly at Wei Yi and looked at Wei Yi in disbelief.

"This ......"

When Ying Kan and Hu Lao heard this, they were dumbfounded.

Recalling the news sent by Yanmen before......

How could it be that Bai Yan actually led the border cavalry and killed more than 26,000 Huns, forcing the Huns to flee north directly.

Bai Yan!

So fierce???

"We have seen it with our own eyes, and the king must have already planned to reward General Bai Yan!"

Wang Juan said with a smile, looking at the appearance of the three people in front of him, when he and Wei Yu learned the news from the king, they couldn't believe it.

Outside the royal palace.

With Wang Juan and Wei Yu's words, all the officials who had been noticing Bai Yu's side looked confused, and they all froze in place, looking at each other in disbelief, looking at each other in disbelief.

What's going on? Didn't it say that Yanmen was in danger, Bai Yan had already been tricked, and his life was worried? Why did he say in front of them in a blink of an eye, only a few days later, that Bai Yan, who was originally worried about his life, not only did not die, but also led the side cavalry to kill more than 20,000 Huns, and Yanmen won a great victory!

Stunned, at this moment, all the officials were stunned in place, unable to believe their ears.

If it weren't for what Wang Juan and Wei Yu said in person, they would definitely not believe it.

But on the contrary, it was Wang Juan and Wei Yu who said it themselves.

After coming back to his senses.

The officials who were good friends with the Bai clan mentioned that those neutral officials were okay, and they couldn't help but sigh that after the Bai clan was a famous general, they really led the troops in a good way, which could turn the crisis into safety, and even defeat the Huns in turn.

And those officials who were hostile to Bai Yan or the Bai family, at this moment, their faces kept changing.

"Did you hear that? The Xiongnu were defeated and killed by Bai Yan over 26,000 people!"

"It's not that the only border cavalry in Yanmen has already divided its troops to the south, why did the Xiongnu army be defeated and die so many people?"

"I don't know how Bai Yan did it, but after this battle, Bai Yan has made such a great achievement, I'm afraid he can be promoted again!"

There were other officials' voices in their ears, and those officials who had gloated and wished that Bai Yan would die early were all silent at this moment.

How happy they were laughing two days ago, how ugly their faces were.
