Chapter 24 Your Majesty is furious
Longxi County was destroyed by the Western Rong since Qin and established by Yiqu.
The right resisted the Western Qiang and the left protected Xianyang. Longxi County has always been an important frontier town in the Great Qin Empire, with no less than 100,000 troops stationed all year round.
As the center of the empire, Xianyang is named after the 800-mile hinterland of Qinchuan, the Wei River runs south, the mountains reach north, and the mountains and rivers all have sunny.
The water of Jingwei nourishes generations of tenacious, brave and iron-blooded old Qin people.
"Your Majesty for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty for ten thousand years."
"Father, Emperor, and Emperor Qin for ten thousand years."
Outside the Xianyang Palace, all the civil and military officials and the princes of the court also knelt on the ground to welcome the First Emperor's Holy Lord.
"No gift."
Ying Zheng drove him out of the car and waved to everyone.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The civil and military officials and the young masters stood up, and then bowed to Wang Jian behind Ying Zheng and Princess Ying Yuanman of Huayang behind, saying, "I have met the eldest princess, the elder general Wang."
"The imperial edict was issued to set up a banquet palace to welcome the old general Wang and the eldest princess."
Ying Zheng was not sitting in the imperial carriage. He had been sitting for too long, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. If he walked around properly, it would be more comfortable.
"My minister, obey the order."
The CRRC Mansion ordered Bai Zhuo to accept the order immediately.
Ying Zheng glanced slightly and did not find Li Si.
Feng Quji saw that His Majesty seemed to be looking for someone, and immediately understood the gods: "Your Majesty, Li Xiang is ill and resting in the house."
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Li Si has dedicated his youth to the Qin Dynasty. Bai Zhuo, you go to the treasury to select a thousand-year-old ginseng and send it to you."
"I, go now!"
Bai Zhuo took the order again and then trotted away.
Ying Zheng led all civil and military officials to the Palace of Xin and sat down.
Looking at the officials who were all in the table, Ying Zheng said, "I have prepared a feast today to entertain you all my dear friends."
"Thank you, your Majesty."
Everyone, full of anticipation, bowed to Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne high.
Soon a group of eunuchs walked in with copper plates one by one. In a moment, a copper plate was placed on the table in front of everyone.
Everyone looked around and looked shocked.
Looking at the dazed people, Ying Zheng said blankly: "What are you all doing? Have a meal!"
"Your Majesty, this thing in the plate is bark, how can you put your belly down?"
The censor Mao Jiao looked embarrassed and said to Ying Zheng.
A word caused a lot of trouble, and some people took the lead, and those who were hesitant began to speak out one after another.
"Your Majesty, how do you eat this root of the valley?"
"Your Majesty, this is clearly a leaf, I can't eat it!"
"Your Majesty, isn't this grass under the belly a beast?
Suddenly, when you say something, I say something, all the civil and military ministers in the court expressed their opinions.
In short, it's basically the same thing. I can't do it if I want to eat these things!
At this moment, Ying Zheng glanced at the rice bran in front of him, then picked up the silver spoon and started eating.
As soon as the mouth was in, the crude taste made Ying Zheng feel like a thorn in his throat and it was difficult to swallow.
This is still the rice bran after refined processing, and it is difficult to swallow even so.
But even so, Ying Zheng still had no expression on his face, and spoonful after spoonful began to eat the rice bran on his plate in deaf ears.
The ministers who were sitting closer looked at this scene, their eyelids shook.
Although the ministers who were sitting far away could not see clearly what His Majesty was eating, they could see that they might not be much better than what they had on their plates when they looked at the expressions of the adults in front of them.
Every time Ying Zheng swallowed a mouthful of thick bran, the hearts of everyone below felt a little heavier.
Until Ying Zheng finished eating, he showed a look of satisfaction. As for the truth or falsehood, he probably only knew it himself.
Looking at the people who were still in a daze, Ying Zheng glared at him and shouted sternly: "Do you all think you are more noble than me?"
this……
As soon as this statement is spoken, who dares to wait and see what changes are going on?
No matter how reluctant I am, I will admit defeat even if I pinch my nose.
Everyone immediately started to move, cried and forced themselves to swallow the ghost things they had never eaten in their lifetime!
It was fine at the beginning, but soon someone couldn't hold on and sprayed it out.
Some people cried and muttered to death while eating.
After waiting for everyone to finish their meal, Ying Zheng raised his eyelids and asked, "Dear friends, what do you think of this feast? Are it delicious?"
"tasty."
Although everyone's stomachs were full of scents, they could only speak against their conscience.
Wang Jian and the eldest princess Ying Yuanman were extremely embarrassed. What about the promised greetings?
Which is the trouble?
Fortunately, Your Majesty did not let them have a meal. It is precisely because of this that they feel like they are sitting on the tip of a needle, but instead become a bystander.
"Delicious? I have never eaten such a difficult thing to swallow in my lifetime... Well! Food!"
Ying Zheng was a little disappointed when he looked at a group of civil and military officials in the court who only knew how to flatter him.
"Your Majesty, this is not what food is. It is clearly the bark, rice husk, grass... not among the grains."
Seeing the look that His Majesty cast, Wang Jian thought about it slightly and then spoke up to cooperate.
"The old general said it well, this is indeed not food, because these things are not for people to eat, and only animals will eat them."
Ying Zheng said a pun, and he didn't even have a dirty word for scolding others.
The civil and military officials sitting below all looked embarrassed and ugly, but none of them dared to refute.
"Why did Your Majesty say that?"
Wang Jian understood the truth that he had finished it, but did not understand the truth.
"Hello question! Why do I do this? My dear friends think I am humiliating you? Are you scolding you? No..."
"I am not so vulgar. Huang, the two sides of Huai River have rained heavily for several months, the two rivers have burst into dams and flooded, and southern Xinjiang has become a veritable land of vast oceans."
"I heard that many local people have no harvest, and hungry people are everywhere."
"I also heard that Guanzhong, Longxi, Shangdang, and seven counties in the northern region have been suffering from droughts and disasters, and refugees are everywhere, and complaints are everywhere."
"I also heard that there has been a rare locust plague in the four counties of Ludong for a hundred years, and no grass grows wherever they pass."
"And these people in the world eat this, even worse than these."
"Have you all heard of it?"
Every word Ying Zheng was like a sharp blade, poking everyone's heart.
Every sentence was as heavy as a tremendous pound, making everyone look ugly.
"Your Majesty is guilty, please calm down your anger."
Everyone stood up immediately, walked to the middle avenue, knelt down and shouted in unison.
"You are guilty? You are indeed guilty, and your crimes should be punished. The sacred county of Xiangping was first in a county, but because the emperor of Xiangping County was afraid of affecting political achievements, he did not report it, causing a great disaster and spreading disasters. If he did not die, he would not be able to calm the anger of the public."
"The embankment on both sides of the Huanghuai River has just been repaired, and it costs 20 million guan. How long has it been broken? Where has my money been repaired?"
"The land of Guanlong, Fen River, Luo River, Jing River, Wei River, Mian River... tributaries intersect and all rivers converge. Why is the drought so far? Who gave them the right to make profits based on the water? Who is supporting them?"
After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he slapped the wooden table in front of him and made a heavy roar.
Many of the things on the table were shaken to the ground, making bumpy sounds.
