Chapter 871 Stabilize first

Another day passed.

The Qin Palace, the main hall.

Emperor Shang Rui was dressed in golden clothes and was located directly above the dragon throne.

Xiao Yuan was wearing a black and red royal garment, with a Qin King's Sword hanging on his waist. He was the only one in the hall.

Shang Rui's expression was very unnatural, so he could only squeeze and laugh, and said tentatively: "Qin, is there anything important to King Qin?"

"Your Majesty." Xiao Yuan bowed his hand slightly, and he didn't even bend his waist, and said:

"For more than two hundred years, wars have continued to end in the Central Plains, and the nations have quarreled and dominated the land to break up the mountains and rivers and make the people live in poverty."

"Now, I led my army to attack Huan, and for the empire to recover lost territory, and have pacified the north. I will report to Your Majesty."

The emperor once issued an edict. The King of Qin went to the palace with his sword and shoes. He did not bow to him when he saw the edict, and did not submit to him for his retribution, so he could call him the king.

When Shang Rui heard this, his eyes were obviously filled with shock, and he also widened his eyes and said, "Qin... King Qin has pacified Huan land?"

"Yes." Xiao Yuandao.

"Ah!?" After his confirmation, Shang Rui couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and then laughed again, and his voice trembled slightly: "The King of Qin used his kingly army to attack the rebels several times to quell the war for the empire. King Huan dominated the country and did not obey the imperial court's orders. He should have been attacked long ago. Now he was destroyed by the King of Qin. This achievement has covered the world. I, I am very happy."

"Your Majesty is very important. The Central Plains should be unified. I am just fulfilling my responsibilities." Xiao Yuan was so proud.

"Ah, yes, yes, what the King of Qin said." Shang Rui echoed repeatedly, his smile becoming more and more ugly, because in his heart, he did not want Xiao Yuan to defeat the Liguo.

But he did not expect that Qin not only blocked the alliance of nations, but also destroyed Huan Kingdom.

At this time, his fear of Xiao Yuan was deeper than before.

The scene paused for a moment, and Shang Rui didn't know what to say for a while.

And this meeting was just a formality Xiao Yuan walked through. After saying this, he also bowed a little, "Since you have reported to Your Majesty, don't disturb me."

Hearing this, Shang Rui subconsciously stood up and said, "Ah, King Qin walked slowly..."

Xiao Yuan gave a bow again and left.

Looking at his back, Shang Rui felt like a deflated ball, his whole body softened and fell back to the dragon throne.

A moment later, he left the court hall. After walking a few steps, the love concubine also found him and snuggled beside him and said, "Your Majesty, I have been in the palace for so long, I want to go out for a walk."

"This..." Shang Rui looked around in embarrassment.

There are imperial guards everywhere in the palace, which can be said to be a post in three steps and a whistle in five steps.

After a casual glance, he also said in a tangled tone: "But the beloved concubine, the King of Qin will not allow it."

"What!" The Love Concubine began to act coquettishly: "Your Majesty is the emperor, and the King of Qin is just a title. Let's just leave the palace and see what these Qin soldiers dare to do to us!"

After saying that, she pulled Shang Rui away, who could not persuade her. At first, no one went to stop her, but when she approached the palace gate, the two imperial guards crossed their long halberds and said coldly: "Please go back to the palace."

Before Shang Rui could speak, the concubine of Love was already angry and embarrassed and said, "Bold! The little guard dared to be so rude! She didn't let go!"

But the imperial guards didn't even take her tricks. These people were all the elite of the Qin army. They followed Xiao Yuan all the way to fight, and they would only obey one person's orders.

"Your Majesty forgive me." One of the imperial guards still spoke coldly, without any hesitation or arbitrage.

"You!" The love concubine was extremely angry, with beautiful eyes, but there was no way.

Shang Rui smiled bitterly, glanced at the two imperial guards, then pulled up the love concubine and said, "Let's go and beloved concubine."

"Your Majesty!" The Love Concubine became even more anxious.

Shang Rui shook his head slightly and pulled her back.

When he returned to the bedroom, his face also showed a bitter expression and said quietly: "My beloved concubine, do you know that the King of Qin has conquered Huan Kingdom, and now the entire north has all returned to Qin."

"What!?" The Love Concubine was also surprised when she heard this.

Shang Rui continued: "The countries in the world have fought against each other for so long, and later the nine countries competed for hegemony, and now the four powerful countries are destroyed. Does the beloved concubine know what this means?"

"This means that the world is already moving towards a trend of unification." The Love Concubine received.

Hearing this, Shang Rui suddenly became nervous again, and couldn't help but grab the little hand of the Love Concubine and said anxiously: "The beloved concubine is right, but once the world is pacified and the mountains and rivers are unified, can I still survive? Will the King of Qin still tolerate my existence? He will definitely be the emperor!"

His voice trembled, fearing to death, but when the Concubine Love heard this, her eyes were burning. Xiao Yuan's figure flashed through her mind, but she comforted her face: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there are five countries in the world. It is not that easy for the King of Qin to unify the world. A powerful spiritual country is not so easy to deal with."

"Yes, yes." Shang Rui seemed to have seized some hope again and said repeatedly: "There are also King Ling, King Xuan, and Wu Chu, they will definitely defeat King Qin..."

Qin Wang Mansion, study room.

Xiao Yuan had just returned for only two days, so naturally he had countless government affairs to deal with. He kept writing, and on the table, there were also a bunch of bamboo slips that Liu Yuzhi had just given.

After talking about some major events, the latter said: "Although the king unified the north, the political situation in many places is still unstable, with business depressed and traffic congested. We must first improve these things, completely stabilize the situation in the north, and completely integrate the northern territory, so that other areas can be viewed."

"Therefore, I suggest that within three to five years, no more troops will be used by the entire northern empire and the Central Plains. Now, the entire northern part of the empire and the Central Plains will belong to the king. Whether it is population, trade, or geography, it will be far beyond the rest of the country. The longer the time, the more beneficial it will be to our Qin State."

"When the local area is stable and the time is ripe, and the king's troops are strong and the food is enough, he can lead his troops south and fight to the south of the Yangtze River."

You should know that in that era, the most developed place in the population and economy was not on the coast, but in the center.

Judging from the current territory of Qin, both politics, culture and economy have an absolute advantage.

After hearing what Liu Yuzhi said, Xiao Yuan frowned slightly, then put down his brush and said quietly: "Three or five years..."

Seeing this, Liu Yuzhi immediately said: "The king is very talented and has a great strategy. Within three or five years, he will definitely complete the northern strategy, so that the people in the country have a sense of belonging to the people, the local stability, the population is prosperous, and the money and food are inexhaustible. With these, we can be invincible."

He suggested that internal affairs be carried out first and not to move troops. Xiao Yuan took a deep breath and said slowly: "I have recorded the Prime Minister's proposal."

This was ambiguous, and Liu Yuzhi was not satisfied, and said on the spot: "Did the king agree?"

This Prime Minister! Xiao Yuan couldn't help but look at him strangely and said helplessly: "As far as the Prime Minister said."
