As soon as Yingzheng's carriage returned to Xianyang Palace, he saw that many ministers were already standing outside the palace, and many of them had anxious looks on their faces.

Obviously, as Ying Zheng had predicted, after the snow melted, the aftermath of the heavy snowstorm began to erupt.

Seeing Ying Zheng's carriage coming from outside the palace, although many ministers were stunned for a moment, they still gathered towards the carriage one after another, bowing respectfully.

"Ministers, see the king."

The carriage came to a slow stop, and then the curtain opened, and the first to get out of the carriage was Gai Nie.

Seeing Gai Nie walking down from the king's car, many ministers were not surprised, although there are not many people in this world who can share a car with King Qin, but Gai Nie, who is the chief guard of King Qin, is obviously among them.

It's just that what makes everyone feel a little strange is that compared to the last time they met, Gai Nie seems to be ······ Gained a little bit of weight.

"Maybe it's a delusion!"

Some people shook their heads slightly, not thinking much about it.

In these days, not so many people will pay too much attention to the matter of 'gaining weight', not to mention that in this era of war and chaos, it is already a blessing to be able to gain weight······

Let's go!

Not long after Gai Nie got out of the car, Ying Zheng followed and stepped out of the carriage.

And when the ministers saw Yingzheng at this time, everyone's brains were like being hit with a hammer at the same time, and they fell into a downtime on the spot.

"Who is this man?"

In fact, the current Yingzheng has not changed so much, but his face is a little blessed, with an extra layer of chin, and a little bit of a small belly.

Overall.

As long as you identify it carefully, you can still easily recognize Yingzheng.

So the ministers were only stunned for a moment, and soon regained their composure, and they all lowered their heads, pretending not to see anything.

"All the Qing gathered in Xianyang Palace today, but what's the matter?"

"Back to the king, since the arrival of early spring, all counties and counties have survived last year's heavy snowfall, and now the damage has been reported in various places."

"Oh? Zhu Qing entered the palace to discuss in detail. ”

Ying Zheng's eyes froze, and then he strode towards Xianyang Palace.

······

A quarter of an hour later.

On the throne, Ying Zheng looked at the concerts presented by the counties and counties, and his face gradually became gloomy.

Although Ying Zheng had already guessed that last year's heavy snow would bring extraordinary losses to the Qin State when he was in Hanzhong before, this report was still greatly unexpected by him.

A heavy snowfall, the number of people who froze to death in the Qin State alone has exceeded 18,000.

As a result, families have been ruined and people have been displaced.

As for the material losses, it is also unimaginable.

"The resettlement of the victims in various places is funded by the imperial court, and it is important to stabilize the situation in the counties and counties before the arrival of spring planting."

After a while, Ying Zheng calmed down and began to calmly issue the edict.

As Mo Jun said before.

Although the damage caused by this heavy snow to the Qin State is not small, with the current background of the Qin State, it is completely enough to calmly deal with all disasters.

"In addition, this year's spring seeds in all areas of Xianyang are sown using the [first generation of improved wheat seeds] created by Sheng Pingjun." At this moment, Ying Zheng added another sentence.

"The first generation of improved wheat seeds?" When the ministers heard this, their faces immediately showed surprise.

"Yes, this is Shengpingjun's latest research and development achievement, and the effect is the same as the previous [first-generation improved rice seeds], which can double the yield of wheat on the original basis."

"In addition, before the winter last year, Sheng Pingjun also offered a kind of [winter wheat] to the widow, according to him, this kind of [winter wheat] can grow even in the cold winter wax moon. The widow had already sent someone to plant the seeds in Nanjun and Bashu respectively, and it would probably not take long to see if it was true or false. ”

Referring to the [Winter Wheat] and [First Generation Improved Wheat Seeds] offered by Mo Jun, Ying Zheng's face also looked much better.

However, after listening to what Yingzheng said, the ministers below instantly gasped.

"Hiss~~~"

"Winter wheat?"

"There are such wonderful kinds of food in the world, which can be called 'divine things'."

"God bless my Great Qin, with these two new grains, my Great Qin will never be short of food in the future."

"Not only is there no shortage of grain, with [the first generation of improved wheat seeds] and [winter wheat], all the land in the north and south of my Great Qin will be able to be completely utilized, and at that time, the grain output of the Qin State will probably double on the existing basis. In the future, the Qin State will not be short of food again, but will have a surplus. ”

"Shengping Jun is really a god and a man."

The ministers' faces turned red and looked excited, grabbing Ying Zheng and Mo Jun's sycophants was a wild shot.

Looking at their appearance, it was as if the person who jointly sued Mo Jun before was not them.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have a play."

Just when everyone was excited, I saw Li Si suddenly walk out of the crowd and respectfully salute Yingzheng.

"What is Li Qing's play?"

"Your Majesty, there was heavy snow last winter, although my Qin Kingdom suffered serious losses due to natural disasters. However, the five kingdoms of Yan, Qi, Zhao, Wei, and Han in the northern part of the Central Plains also suffered the same disaster as our Great Qin. ”

Li Si said: "And these five countries do not have the help of Shengping Jun, nor do they have the background of my Great Qin, so the losses they suffer will inevitably be more severe than those of the Qin State." ”

Ying Zheng's eyes flashed, and he said, "Li Qing means ······"

Li Si bowed his hand and said firmly: "Back to the king, the minister thinks that now is the best time." ”

"Since ancient times, those who achieve great things will have the help of heaven. Since 700 years ago, the Zhou royal family declined, and the vassal states fought endlessly, and Mu Gong seized the opportunity to make the Qin state strong, but only because of the lack of time, it finally failed to achieve great results. ”

"Now the soldiers and horses of the Qin State are strong, the grain and grass are sufficient, the king is virtuous, and the Shengping Jun has the help of the king, which can be described as the right time, the right place, and the people gather."

"Today's Six Kingdoms are just dust on the stove for the Qin State, so now is the best time for the king to complete the unfinished cause of the previous king, sweep Liuhe, dominate the world, and end the seven hundred years of turmoil."

Li Si's sudden remarks instantly made the entire court quiet.

After listening to Li Si's advice, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed a few times, but he did not rush to express his position, but turned to look at the rest of the ministers and said, "What do you think of what Li Qing said?" ”

"This ······"

The ministers looked at each other a few times.

At first, the ministers were indeed shocked by Li Si's words, but when they calmed down, they found that Li Si's words were not completely unreasonable.

Now the strength of the Qin State is almost visible to the naked eye.

Even if the 'Five Kingdoms Attack Qin' more than 20 years ago came again, the Qin State did not necessarily need to use any tactics to disperse the other party this time, even if it met the enemy from the front, it may not be without the strength to fight.

Not to mention the heavy snow last winter, because of the advice of Sheng Pingjun, the Qin State responded in time, and only lost more than 18,000 people.

The other five countries were not so lucky, as far as they knew privately, a heavy snowfall last winter killed at least more than 22,000 people, even South Korea, which suffered the smallest loss among the five northern countries.

To know.

South Korea's territory is the smallest of the Seven Kingdoms.

The total population of the entire South Korea is only more than one million, but this heavy snowfall directly caused more than 20,000 direct deaths in South Korea, so you can imagine how much damage it has done to South Korea.

Moreover, the remaining five countries today do not have the foundation of post-disaster reconstruction of Qin.

In this case.

If the Qin State suddenly launched an attack on the Five Kingdoms, how could the Five Northern States resist the Great Qin Army?

That's it.

The eyes of the ministers of the Qin State lit up one after another.

Although these courtiers had also fought against Yingzheng several times in the court in the past, it was only a dispute that had to arise when the interests of the clan and the interests of the royal power conflicted.

If it is a foreign war, then in today's court, except for a very few people, most people are in power······ In other words, the interests of the Qin state are all the same.

After all, as Qin ministers, the strength of the Qin State is only good for them, not harmful.

Especially now this great cause of unifying the world.

Once the government is successful.

So don't these courtiers who have long been loyal to Yingzheng have 'the merit of following the dragon'?

"I think what Li Tingwei said is very true, at the moment, my Great Qin soldiers are strong and strong, and there is time to help, it is the best time for the king to show his ambition and cast immortal achievements."

"The minister also seconded the proposal, and now the six countries are in front of the soldiers of my Qin State, but they are just chickens and dogs."

"The minister also seconded the proposal."

"The minister also seconded the proposal."

······

After the first person spoke, the rest of the ministers began to express their attitudes.

Seeing that the ministers below all agreed with Li Si's advice, Ying Zheng finally stopped hiding his ambition and said loudly: "Since all the ministers think that what Li Qing said is extremely true, then pass on the edict of the widow and immediately order Wang Qian, Meng Wei, Wang Ben, Meng Wu, Yang Duanhe, and Huan Qi······ Wait for the generals to return to Xianyang from the border as soon as possible to discuss major matters. ”

Hearing the edict issued by Yingzheng, the ministers were stunned.

Ah······h

Although it is said that the opportunity cannot be missed, it is not a bit too rushed.

Is the edict issued by Yingzheng in a hurry?

Not at all.

The reason is simple.

Because although today's advice was put forward by Li Si, in fact, this idea had been planned in Yingzheng's heart a long time ago.

Even if Li Si suddenly played today, it was just that he figured out Ying Zheng's inner thoughts, so he took the initiative to stand up and gave Ying Zheng a reason to give an edict.

In fact.

Even if there is no Li Si's advice today, it won't be long before Yingzheng will find someone to raise this matter.

So when everyone else was surprised by Yingzheng's hasty edict, only Li Si was not surprised at all, and even on the contrary, he took the initiative to stand up and admonish again: "Your Majesty, the minister still has a word." In this battle of reunification, the minister thought that it was most appropriate to start with Korea. ”
