On a scroll of bamboo slips, Bai Yan was writing names one after another. According to Ying Zheng's instructions, Bai Yan presented all the people who had contributed in the battle against Chu.
According to the usual rules for this kind of thing, all the bamboo slips in the Qin army's camp have to be submitted to Xianyang. After that, they will be registered by the prime minister under the command of the state captain and the subordinate officers under the left and right prime ministers. Then they will be personally verified by the state captain and the left and right prime ministers.
Finally, it was submitted to Ying Zheng.
As for Ying Zheng's current order, he obviously skipped many steps and asked Bai Yan to record it in advance.
Beside the wooden window.
Bai Yan rubbed his eyebrows and turned to look out the window.
Regarding Ying Zheng's actions, Bai Yan knew that he was asking him to write down some people who had made great contributions and whose identities were sensitive and sent them to the palace.
What happened to Lord Changping and Lord Changwen was a wake-up call to Ying Zheng. Especially since there are countless nobles in the Chu State who are still in the Qi State, once the nobles in the Chu State want to take revenge, they will definitely be hard to guard against.
"Wu Liejun!"
Hearing the footsteps, Bai Yan turned his head and watched Bai Junzhu come in with tea.
"Why not let Yingxue stay in the house?"
Bai Yan said softly.
Five days have passed since I took Bai Junzhu back to the mansion.
During these five days, Bai Yingxue would come to the mansion every day. Whenever Bai Yan returned to the mansion from court, he would see Bai Yingxue accompanying Bai Junzhu. Sometimes Bai Ming and Bai Guo would also follow.
If Bai Yan remembered correctly, Bai Yingxue seemed to be the only one who came here alone today.
"Grandpa, uncle, they won't let Yingxue stay overnight!"
Bai Junzhu replied softly.
Under the silk clothes of Qin, Bai Junzhu knelt down next to Bai Yan. After pouring tea for Bai Yan, he looked at the wooden table and saw the bamboo slips that Bai Yan had reviewed. Bai Junzhu stretched out his delicate hands to pick up the bamboo slips, as he had done these days.
Get up and take it to the wooden stand and place it properly.
Bai Yan fell silent after listening to Bai Junzhu's words. He looked at Bai Junzhu's long-haired back and said nothing.
Bai Yingxue is not allowed to stay overnight!
Bai Yan knew clearly that it was not the Bai family who were wary of him having evil intentions towards Bai Yingxue. They probably didn't want Bai Yingxue to disturb him and Bai Junzhu.
"Fortunately, Bai Junzhu didn't talk to Bai Yingxue and didn't have sex."
Bai Yan sighed and thought to himself.
Just when Bai Yan picked up the pen and ink and was about to continue writing on the bamboo slips, he suddenly saw a servant hurriedly approaching outside the study door.
"Jun Wu Lie! Someone is coming from the palace!"
The servant said to Bai Yan.
When Bai Yan heard this, he looked at Bai Junzhu who was not far away. He was a little surprised. It was almost dark, and someone actually came to the palace.
Although he didn't know what happened, Bai Yan still got up and walked out of the study.
In the courtyard.
A eunuch saw Bai Yan and hurriedly stepped forward. After exchanging greetings with Bai Yan, he hurriedly informed Bai Yan that the king summoned Bai Yan to enter the palace immediately. The king had already ordered people to inform Wei Liao, Feng Quji, and Li Si.
et al.
When Bai Yan heard this, he nodded and quickly followed the eunuch out of the mansion.
…………………………
"Little sister, we're finally here! Why don't you give me this bone~!"
At dusk, on the streets of Xianyang City, Tian Xian's painful moans could be heard from a carriage.
In the carriage, Tian Xian looked at his little sister helplessly. He walked all the way, half a month's journey, and it took ten days. God only knows the shadow in Tian Xian's heart during these days.
"Brother and Lord Wu Lie are acquainted. I heard that Yingzheng rewarded Lord Wu Lie with many beautiful attendants. When we meet later, my elder brother can ask Lord Wu Lie to arrange for more than ten beautiful attendants to hold my brother's feet and shoulders!"
Tian Feiyan's beautiful eyes looked at his brother Tian Xian with a smile.
Tian Xian looked at his little sister's expression and quickly waved his hands and shook his head with a wry smile.
"I don't dare to think that the beautiful servant is my brother. When my little sister sees the person she likes, don't forget to be her brother in the future... ah!!!"
As Tian Xian was talking, he suddenly felt his thigh meat being stepped on a little bit. The sharp sting made Tian Xian cry out in pain. When he saw Tian Feiyan's concerned look, he was ready to come over.
"No, no, no, no!"
Tian Xian quickly smiled wryly and waved his hands, with only one thought in his mind.
Bai Yan came over quickly, took the little girl away, and let him live in peace and quiet for a few days!!!
Xianyang Palace.
In the study room full of candle lights, Bai Yan, who followed the eunuch to the study room, saw that Wei Liao, Feng Quji, Xin Sheng, Li Si and others were already in the study room.
"My lord, pay homage to the king!"
Bai Yan saluted Ying Zheng among the many ministers.
"Bai Yan, there is no need to be polite! Generals Wang Jian and Meng Wu have already sent news that the Qin army has conquered Shouchun, the capital of Chu, and occupied the palace of the King of Chu!"
Ying Zheng looked happy when he saw Bai Yan arriving.
When the Qin State destroyed Chu, Bai Yan was undoubtedly the first to do so. Although it was not Bai Yan who led the troops to conquer Shouchun, the capital of the Chu State, nor the palace of the King of Chu, everyone knows that all of this was inseparable from Bai Yan's contribution.
Now seeing how Chu land, which once covered thousands of miles, was all transferred to Qin, how could Ying Zheng not be excited and happy.
"My congratulations, Your Majesty! The land of Chu has returned to Qin, and in the whole world, apart from the surviving Dai land and the Yan state that fled to the north, only the state of Qi is left!"
Bai Yan quickly saluted again.
Hearing this news, Bai Yan was not very surprised. After all, on the way here, Bai Yan had already analyzed what would happen if Ying Zheng summoned him in such a hurry.
Some of them had speculated that the news of the destruction of Chu had come.
Seeing Ying Zheng set his sights on the easternmost place on the map, Qi State, Bai Yan still didn't know what Ying Zheng was thinking.
"Yes! Only Qi is left!"
Ying Zheng looked at the map with emotion on his face, his expression full of urgency and longing.
The common ruler of the world!
This word is now so close, as if it is right in front of you, and you can get it easily, so that Ying Zheng's thoughts, which had finally calmed down, became anxious again, and he couldn't wait to immediately order his troops to be ready to attack Qi at any time.
In the study room.
Bai Yan took two steps forward, looked at Feng Quji, then looked at Li Si, Ying Kan and others, and nodded to each other. When he saw Meng Yi, Bai Yan also nodded to Meng Yi.
Looking at Meng Yi, who is now a regular attendant, he nodded slightly in return. Bai Yan looked at him kindly, then turned his head and looked at the map.
The map at this time was different from the one Bai Yan saw two days ago.
In the huge map, the characters on the territory of the former Han, Zhao, Wei, and Chu states have all disappeared, replaced by the names of cities and towns.
Except for the state of Qi and the place where there is written "Dai" on one side and "Yan" on the other side in the corner, a large word "Qin" is particularly eye-catching.
"Your Majesty, since General Wang Ben and General Yang Yan have asked for orders, they want to pacify the Chu State and lead troops to the border of Qi State! The minister advised that the king may ask Wu Liejun to lead the troops to Gaotang! In Gaotang!
The Tang Dynasty blocked Qi State and completely cut off Qi State's idea of going north. At the same time, he sent envoys to Qi State to force the King of Qi to surrender to Qin!"
Wei Liao looked at the map and knew that Ying Zheng could not wait to annex Qi, so after thinking about it, he turned his head and raised his hand to Ying Zheng and suggested.
Bai Yan was a little surprised when he heard Wei Liao's words.
Gaotang!
Thinking of this place, the first thought that came to Bai Yan's mind was that when he was a child, his grandmother and the villagers in the village had said that the fifty-seven cities in Gaotang were originally a prosperous place for Qi State, with fertile land and a large population.
The back part was occupied by the State of Zhao.
Looking at the map now, Bai Yan knew that Gaotang was not far from Linzi of Qi State.
If he goes to Gaotang, when Qi surrenders to Qin in the future, Bai Yan can immediately follow Yucheng and Yancheng, and then take a boat from Zhuohe River to the east, and follow his husband back to Linzi.
All the journey along the way does not take ten days at all!
Thinking of this, Bai Yan's breathing became a little disordered.
"Gaotang..."
After hearing Wei Liao's words, Li Si, Feng Quji, Ying Kan and others all looked at the map.
No one in the study had any objection to Wei Liao's suggestion that Bai Yan lead the troops to Gaotang.
Ying Zheng has handed over all the military power in Northern Xinjiang to Bai Yan, not to mention the side cavalry and the iron cavalry. They are all the generals who followed Bai Yan in the north and south in the past. Bai Yan will command the northern Xinjiang army, and his momentum, prestige, and giving to Qi
The country's sense of oppression is unmatched by any other Qin general.
As for Bai Yan's identity as Qi Ren...
After the rebellion of Lord Changping and Lord Changwen, let alone them, even the civil and military officials of Qin who had always been at odds with Bai Yan in the court would not take this matter against Bai Yan.
In addition, Ying Zheng had vaguely mentioned in the past few days that Bai Yan and Tian Ding would be married. Perhaps it would be easier for Qi to let down its guard by letting Bai Yan go to Gaotang instead of staying in Xianyang.
"Your Majesty! I second the proposal. Since there is news from Shangjun, the Yuezhi seems to be preparing to fight with the Xiongnu. I fear that all the places in the north will inevitably be affected. I think that letting Lord Wu Lie lead troops to Gaotang to garrison will not only deter Qi, but also
It can also cope with the war in the north! Beware of changes in the north!"
Feng Quji remembered the news sent by Hu Jin's order. At this time, he also looked at Ying Zheng, raised his hands and agreed.
soon.
Following Wei Liao and Feng Quji's words, not only Li Si, Ying Kan and others, but also Ying Zheng also turned to look at Bai Yan.
When mentioning the north, people think of Yuezhi, Xiongnu, and Donghu.
Among the three northern forces that pose the greatest threat to Qin, the Yuezhi and the Xiongnu have already lost tens of thousands of their people to Bai Yan's hands. I heard that in the northern grasslands, Bai Yan's name is no longer inferior to that of Li Mu.
There is one more update, I will make it up during the day!!
