Chapter 439 Ying Zheng's Royal Expedition(1/2)
Ying Zheng sat high above, his eyes drooping slightly, and did not comment on the quarrels below.
The situation in Daqin is very complicated, and the reasons for the quarrel below are even more complicated.
On the surface, they were arguing over whether the empire should be scrambling to fight against the mountains and seas, but in fact it was not the case.
First of all, the quarrels can be roughly divided into two factions.
One is the old ministers of the Qin Dynasty who came from the mountains and seas, as well as their descendants, who were also called diehards and conservatives. The other is the newcomers who joined the Qin Dynasty from various forces during the rapid expansion of the Qin Dynasty. They are called radicals and also called new factions.
Their quarrel was nothing more than a distributor of imperial rights and a confrontation between old and new forces.
In addition, it can be regarded as two systems.
The eldest son Fusu and the youngest son Hu Hai were among them.
The reason for their quarrel is relatively simple, because each of them wants to compete for the opportunity to command the prince.
The news of the beacon in the mountains and seas was brought back by the eldest son Fusu, so he had a great advantage. The young master Hu Hai was far away from the border of the Qin Dynasty at this time and even if he received the news, he might not be able to arrive in time.
Therefore, in order to create a chance for Hu Hai to compete, Hu Hai and his team naturally spared no effort to delay time.
It is precisely because all forces have plotted against each other that the civil and military officials in the court quarreled hard.
Of course, the most important thing is that Ying Zheng never made a decision, which is also the reason for the quarrel between the ministers. If Ying Zheng had made plans early, even if all forces were willing to oppose it, they would never dare to be so blatant.
After all, the empire was always Ying Zheng's empire, and there was only one absolute ruler here.
Whether it is the young master Fusu or the young master Hu Hai.
After all, they are just princes, not emperors.
"What do you think about Li Xiang?" Ying Zheng suddenly spoke.
Below, a thin middle-aged man stood up. He was Li You, the great-great-grandson of Li Si. However, although he was only a descendant of the Li family, his cultivation level and achievements were far superior to those of his predecessors.
Li You, one of the few giants in Daqin’s transformation!
Li You said respectfully: "I think that things in the mountains and seas must be done, but they must also be cautious. As you said, the Qin Dynasty has been away from the mountains and seas for thousands of years, and no one knows what the mountains and seas are like now.
However, I think it is quite inappropriate to attack the mountain and sea areas, but I can also send a pioneer to the mountain and sea areas to investigate the situation."
Ying Zheng's eyes drooped slightly, without saying anything.
Some of the other civil and military officials agreed, and some frowned.
But everyone understands that Li You's meaning represents Ying Zheng's intention most of the time. Now that Li You said that, Ying Zheng obviously has plans.
Just as the ministers fell silent and began to think about their respective interests, a hurry shouted outside the palace gate: "Baidixing's emergency military information, one hundred thousand urgent!"
"Baidixing's emergency military information, one hundred thousand urgent!"
The noisy sound resounded throughout the palace and came into the palace.
For a moment, everyone was shocked.
An urgent military situation!
Something happened!
Since the Qin Dynasty began to recuperate, they have almost forgotten that there has been no urgent military information for many years.
But, White Emperor Star!?
This time, the matter is a bit subtle.
When everyone thought of the beacons in the mountains and seas, most people couldn't help but change their expressions, and they felt a little more unknown. Could it be that the mountain and seas incident, or did other changes occur in the Baidi Star?
Amid the nervousness of people, Bai Qi's personal guard came to the palace.
His face was pale and slightly embarrassed.
Obviously, the two-day and night's rush was far from as simple as it seemed.
The visitor knelt on one knee and said, "I am here to deliver a message according to the order of King Wu'an."
"speak!"
Ying Zheng looked solemn and had a brief look.
His voice was calm and he was not emotional.
The visitor took out the seal from his arms and said, "The King of Wu'an did not explain too much, but asked me to hand this thing over to the Lord. The Lord once said that Your Majesty will understand after seeing this thing."
Ying Zheng stared at the seal in the hands of the visitor and fell into deep thought.
The ministers were stunned and confused.
They looked at the seal in the hands of the person who came, but couldn't see any tricks. In their opinion, this seal was ordinary, and even the patterns and carvings clearly stated on it were different from the specifications set by the official Qin Dynasty today.
After a brief observation, in most people's eyes, this seal is a fake.
Does anyone want to rebel if the official seal of the imperial seal is privately sealed?
Most civil and military officials were guessing, but they breathed a sigh of relief.
The empire was never afraid of rebellion, because the empire's army would teach them how to be human and what the majesty of the empire was not to be trampled on.
Zhao Gao walked forward and walked towards Ying Zheng with his seal in his hands.
Few people noticed Zhao Gao's trembling hands and slightly twitching face.
Others cannot recognize this seal, but as a close minister who served Ying Zheng for the longest time, how could Zhao Gao not recognize this unique seal of the Qin Dynasty?
This seal was carved by Ying Zheng himself!
"The Lord."
Zhao Gao walked to Ying Zheng, placed the seal on the table with great care, and bowed his body and whispered.
Ying Zheng did not say anything, and played with the seemingly ordinary seal and fell into a loss of consciousness.
Father Zhong, are you back?
For a moment, the hall was silent.
Even the person who guessed that it might be the rebellion of Baidixing was still confused at this time.
Ying Zheng’s attitude is so strange.
Things seem to be not simply someone rebelling, no, it should be that this seal seems to be hiding something extraordinary.
Among them, there should be other hidden information!?
Everyone was curious, but no one dared to disturb Ying Zheng when he was lost.
They have even forgotten what was the reason for Ying Zheng's last time and why.
"Where did this seal come from?" Ying Zheng said in silence for a moment.
Bai Qi's personal soldiers hurriedly told the matter.
The ancestor of Jiejiao, mountains and seas?
When everyone heard this, they frowned, feeling that things seemed a little subtle.
Ying Zheng's eyes flashed and he fell into deep thought.
In the mountains and seas, the disciples of Jie Sect took the initiative to come to the door.
With Zhongfu's personality, it seems that he was in big trouble in the mountains and seas.
Ying Zheng said: "Transfer my order and ask Prince Fusu to lead the Xuanniao Legion to the mountains and seas immediately, and ask King Wu'an Bai Qi to find out the situation in the mountains and seas as soon as possible."
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically.
Qin State used Xuanniao as the totem, so it named the strongest army of the empire after the Xuanniao Legion, which also expressed the meaning of this being the strongest shield and sharp blade of the empire.
The Xuanniao Legion has countless legends in the Great Qin Dynasty.
Even except Ying Zheng, no one knows how many troops the Xuanniao Legion has.
This is the most powerful and special force of the empire. He only obeys Ying Zheng's orders and only appears when it should appear.
There are so many legends about the Xuanniao Legion, so many that it is impossible to distinguish the authenticity of it. But there is one thing that everyone knows and is also a fact recognized by the world.
In the Xuanniao Legion, every soldier has the cultivation level of the Dharma Realm, and everyone is a soldier who has emerged from the sea of corpses and blood.
This is a group of terrifying killing machines, killing machines that only obey one person's orders.
At this time, Ying Zheng asked Fusu to lead the Xuanniao Legion to the expedition, so how could the civil and military officials not be shocked?
At the same time, they were also extremely confused.
What exactly is that seal?
Before, Ying Zheng obviously had no intention of going directly to the war, otherwise Li You would not have stood up and said something to wait and see for the time being. But since he saw the seal, Ying Zheng suddenly changed his mind.
Obviously, the only thing that could make Ying Zheng suddenly change his mind was that seal, or the person holding that seal.
Just as everyone was still thinking about the seal, Ying Zheng spoke again: "Tell me my will and let Prince Hu Hai return to Beijing and carry out the affairs of supervising the country."
Supervisor!
The civil and military officials twitched their faces and looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief.
