Ying Zheng's voice just fell.

I saw Mo Jun wearing a court dress for the internal history of Su Su, slowly walked out of the front of the civil officials, and saluted respectfully towards Yingzheng above: "Your Majesty, the matter of spring planting has been prepared, and now the "new grain seed" has been sent to various counties and counties. Just ······"

Ying Zheng asked, "Just what?" ”

Mo Jun clasped his hands and said, "It's just that a few teams transporting 'new grain seeds' were stolen by thieves and lost more than ten stones of 'new grain seeds'. ”

"Who is so bold? He actually stole my Great Qin's things. ”

"I don't know, but when I was chasing those thieves, one of them once dropped a longbow from the 'Falling Star Gate' of Zhao State."

"Zhao Guo?"

Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Is Mo Qing's words true?" ”

Mo Jun said with a serious face: "The minister does not dare to deceive the king. ”

Boom!

Ying Zheng took the case and said angrily: "How can this be true, the people of Zhao State dare to openly come to my Qin State to do this thief." Where is the obscure? ”

"The old minister is here!"

As Ying Zheng spoke, he saw an old man with a gray beard, a burly body, and bright eyes stepping out of the ranks of military generals.

This person is impressively unscrupulous.

"The widow immediately ordered you to lead 200,000 troops, with Huan Qi as the deputy general, to the border of Zhaodi. If Zhao Guo can't give an explanation for this matter, I, Daqin, will never give up. ”

"The old minister takes the order!"

Meng Fu immediately responded.

The rest of the people above the court looked at the clumsy scene performed by the three people in front of them, and their expressions suddenly became strange.

Asking for an explanation?

Do you believe this?

Whose family directly commanded 200,000 troops and pushed them to the border of other people's land to ask for an explanation?

If you look at other people's territory and resources, you can say directly, after all, this kind of thing has not been done in our Qin State, so what are you doing with all those vain things.

As if seeing the expressions on the faces of the other ministers, Ying Zheng suddenly let out a soft 'um' in his nose, and then said slowly.

"Do you have any opinions?"

"The king is wise!"

The many ministers above the court did not hesitate for even a second, and spoke decisively in unison.

"In this case, the mobilization of the army's logistics grain and grass will be handled by Mo Qing, so let's retreat!"

"The ministers are leaving."

······

The court meeting was dispersed.

Mo Jun and Meng Fu did not have any communication in the Xianyang Palace.

After leaving Xianyang Palace, Mo Jun first took a carriage around Xianyang at will, and then entered the Mongolian Mansion.

Now that Mo Jun's status is not what it used to be, some things naturally cannot be as casual as before, just like when he and Meng Fu met, one of the two is now at the top of the civil service and the other is at the top of the military general.

If the two of them still meet and talk casually as before, maybe Ying Zheng won't care about it once or twice, but there are too many times, and it's hard to guarantee that Ying Zheng won't think about it.

After all, if the ministers of civil and military officials really unite, it is possible to empty the royal power.

Therefore, Mo Jun wants to meet with Meng Fu now, neither too openly nor too secretively.

Mo Jun had to put himself in a situation where he pretended to be hidden, but he could just be seen by Ying Zheng's eyes, and it was the most appropriate thing to enter the Meng Mansion.

"Here we go!"

Seeing Mo Jun walking into the courtyard, Meng Fu suddenly smiled and said, "How is it?" Sometimes the feeling of being in a high position may not be good! Sit! ”

Mo Jun shook his head helplessly, and then came to sit down in front of Meng Fu, and said, "I really don't feel as good as being at ease when I was in Nanjun." ”

"Hahaha~~ I really didn't expect that you could do this point just after not seeing each other for a few years."

Looking at the young man in front of him who was gradually maturing and his face was becoming more and more handsome, Meng Fu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although when he first met Mo Jun, he already felt that this son was not a thing in the pool, but now Mo Jun's achievements, even when he first got the news, he felt dumbfounded.

"It's a pity that you have now been married by the king, otherwise the old man would have to marry you no matter what he says." Meng Fu held his beard, quite regretfully.

"Senior Meng laughed."

Mo Jun smiled, not taking Meng Fu's words seriously.

The Qin State currently practiced a monogamous and polygamous system.

Mo Jun, who was given marriage by Yingzheng, is not unable to continue to marry other women, but the position of the main wife can only be the princess of Qin who gave marriage.

Dynasties and dynasties.

It is not uncommon for kings to win over great men through marriages.

It's more fitting to say that this is not so much a marriage as a transaction.

Although Mo Jun doesn't like this kind of marriage full of utilitarianism, in this era, there are some things that even he can't avoid.

And the concubines of the Mengshi clan naturally can't give them to others as concubines, and the concubines are not worthy of Mojun.

Not to mention.

Even if the Mengshi clan really had a concubine who was willing to be a concubine for Mo Jun, it would be impossible for the two families to form an in-law.

Again, that's the same sentence.

Because the power of both sides is too great, once the two families get married, it will inevitably attract the jealousy and suspicion of the king.

However, for now, the marriage on Ying Zheng's side is just a name, and it can be regarded as setting a wedding for both parties first, but I don't know how long it will take to really complete the ceremony process.

After all, in this era, it is not a trivial matter for a princess to get married, and it may take two or three years just to prepare in advance.

And the princess who set up a wedding with Mo Jun is not yet the age to be married.

No way.

The main reason is that Yingzheng himself is still young now.

In his twenties, his eldest son Fusu was only a few years old, and he gave Mo Jun a marriage this time, purely to win over Mo Jun.

"What do senior Meng think about the king's dispatch of troops to attack Zhao this time?"

As the rest of the ministers in the court had speculated before, this time Yingzheng sent troops to attack Zhao, of course, it could not be as simple as a dozen stones of 'new grain' being robbed.

Above the court, the dialogue between Mo Jun and Ying Zheng had already passed the gas long before the last dynasty.

As for Meng Fu, it is completely the on-the-spot play of the old drama bones.

Of course.

It is also a fact that more than a dozen stones of the 'new grain' distributed by Mojun have been stolen and robbed.

After all, with the death of Lü Buwei, Mo Jun was named 'Shengping Jun', and after such a big thing happened, it was impossible for the other six countries not to send people to Qin State to find out the inside story.

Once the news of the "new rice seeds" is known, it is even more unlikely that the other six countries will not react to it at all.

In fact.

Not only the other six countries, but also all the sects that wanted to save the common people had already heard the news of the "new grain seeds" at this time.

However, these people are not only drawing dozens of stones of 'new rice seeds', they are more of Mo Jun, the person who has improved the 'new rice seeds'.

"The outcome of the war against Zhao is not important, what matters is the operation itself." Meng Fu took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Mo Jun nodded, in fact, he also guessed part of Yingzheng's intention to send troops to attack Zhao this time.

Now in the Qin State, Chang Yu, Lü Buwei, and Chu foreign relatives have fallen one after another, and the internal worries have been eliminated, and the next problem that should have been solved should be external troubles.

But the opposite is true.

Now that the internal worries have been removed, the next problem that needs to be solved is still 'internal worries'.

It's just another internal worry.

The reason is simple.

Because of the purge this winter, although it cleared the hidden dangers within the Qin State, it also caused the entire Qin State court to fall into another state of 'panic'.

Therefore, the first thing Yingzheng needs to do next is to stabilize the court.

For this reason, the method chosen by Ying Zheng was similar to the previous method used by Mo Jun to appease the victims of the disaster in Nanjun, and it was all another thing to divert the attention of the officials of the Qin State.

However, now that there is no suitable 'target' within the Qin State, then Ying Zheng can naturally only transfer the target outside the Qin State.

Zhao Guo happened to be a suitable target.

After all, in recent years, there has been friction between Qin and Zhao from time to time, and even a few years ago, Qin also sent three generals at the same time, Huan Qi, Wang Qian, and Yang Duan, to join forces and attack Zhao Guoye.

Although it did not succeed in the end, it took nine cities of Zhao in a row.

After that, the state of Zhao clashed with the state of Yan.

During Zhao's attack on Yan, Qin unilaterally sent Wang Jian and other generals again in the name of saving Yan, and then took Zhao Guoyan, Yiyang, Hejian, Anyang and other provinces.

Even the Zhangshui Valley was occupied by the Qin army.

Wait until the second year.

The Qin army attacked Zhao again and captured Pingyang.

As a result, it didn't take long for Zhao Jun to fight back under the leadership of Li Mu.

This beam came to an end all at once.

Therefore, it is completely reasonable for Yingzheng to send 200,000 troops to attack Zhao again this year.

"That's right!"

Mo Jun and Meng Fu chatted for a while, and suddenly, Meng Fu seemed to remember something, and said: "Since you are now the ruler of Su Neishi, the old man's 200,000 army of grain and grass ······"

"Oops~ It's not too late, Meng senior, I'll leave first, I don't have to send it far."

Before Meng Fu could finish speaking, Mo Jun stood up suddenly, turned around and walked out the door.

Looking at its back, it feels quite a bit like he has fled.

And actually.

Mo Jun is indeed running away in the wilderness, there is no way, he really can't escape if he doesn't escape!

Only after he really became the ruler of Su Neishi did Mo Jun understand how rotten Qin's taxes and finances were.

If the current Zhisu Inner History Mansion is described in one word.

That's – poor!

If you could describe it in two words.

That is - poor + rotten.

To know.

More than a year ago, Mo Jun had just brought 200,000 gold coins and 600,000 stone grain to Ying Zheng from Nanjun.

This amount may not seem like much, but don't forget, these are all additional revenues from the Qin treasury. And last year's year was not bad, and the taxes collected were okay.

It stands to reason.

The current treasury should be quite abundant.

However, not long ago, after Mo Jun checked the treasury, he found that there were only 50,000 gold coins left in the treasury today.

That's right.

There are only 50,000 gold coins.

If Meng Fu leads an army of 200,000 to fight next, it is estimated that these 50,000 gold coins can barely support a battle.

And this battle can't be too long.

Mo Jun looked at the ledger, and then for the first time, he realized how much money was burned after Shang Ying's reform and turned the Qin State into the current war machine.

The simplest example.

Now the army raised by the Qin State, if you count the conscription, the annual ration alone is enough to eat the entire grain tax of the Qin State for a year.

And although the cost of the grain tax book is large, at least the amount is clear.

But the other accounts, it's really a complete bad debt.

When he saw those accounts at that time, Mo Jun even had the idea of picking on his own and not doing it.

After that, just to settle this bad debt, Mo Jun spent almost a month in Mo Mansion before he finally sorted it out.

So next.

The first thing he, the newly appointed governor of the country, had to do was not to collect taxes, but to collect debts.
