Chapter 87 Qin Wangzheng: Unifying the world is just around the corner!
Standing on the cloud chariot, the north wind blew, making Wang Jian's excitement cool down, and his whole person became calmer.
The city of Handan was broken, and he needed to start planning for the decisive battle at Jingxingguan after Zhao Shu and others arrived.
The battle at Jingxingguan will be the last battle for Qin to destroy Zhao.
The moon and stars were sparse, and the middle-aged General Wang Jian of the Qin Dynasty saw the future. Under the banner of the Qin Dynasty, the warriors of the Qin Dynasty were invincible.
........
Xianyang.
In order to send the news of the destruction of Handan City to Xianyang and the hands of Qin Wangzheng as soon as possible, Yang Duanhe used the Golden Order Arrow.
Use the fastest Jin Lingjian special envoy to deliver the news that Handan City has been destroyed.
On the third day after the city of Handan was broken, Jin Lingjian's envoys rode into Xianyang and headed towards Xianyang Palace. Along the way, they all gave way to the merchants and pedestrians they met.
The news that Jin Lingjian's envoys had entered the city spread like wildfire, and the Qin court officials who were the first to hear about it waited in their mansions to wait for the edict from the King of Qin.
At this time, the Jin Ling Arrow envoy went straight into Xianyang Palace and arrived at Zhangtai Palace without any obstruction.
"Your Majesty, the Jinling Arrow envoy has entered the city and is heading towards Zhangtai Palace at this moment." Zhao Gao saluted Ying Zheng and reported the news.
"Prepare salt water and food. When the envoy arrives, let him eat first." Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slips in his hand and gave instructions to Zhao Gao.
"promise."
"Hush!"
In the Great Qin Dynasty, apart from the King of Qin, only the envoys of the Golden Order Arrow were qualified to gallop on horseback in the Xianyang Palace.
When the war horse arrived in front of Zhangtai Palace, the special envoy reined the horse, dismounted, and handed the reins to the chamberlain on the side.
He didn't bother to rest at all. He took two breaths and ran towards the steps of Zhangtai Palace. As a member of the Great Qin Ruins, he naturally understood the importance of this piece of news.
"The envoy of the Golden Order Arrow, Xin, has met the king for thousands of years and the Qin Dynasty for thousands of years——!" After Zhao Gao's identity verification and inspection, the special envoy Xin finally walked into Zhangtai Palace.
"I love you, you don't need to be polite, please stay calm." Ying Zheng looked at the letter and turned towards Zhao Gao, saying: "Give him the quasi-salted water and let him take a breath before talking."
"promise."
Taking the water bag, Xin took a few sips, and then handed the water bag to Zhao Gao. At this time, his breath became evener.
"Your Majesty, Handan has been victorious. Our army has defeated Handan. This is the military report from General Yang Duanhe!" As he said this, he raised the copper pipe high.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was overjoyed. Even the character he had cultivated over the years was greatly shaken at this moment.
Zhao Gao took the copper pipe from Xin's hand, inspected it, and handed it to Ying Zheng respectfully.
Taking it from Zhao Gao, Ying Zheng glanced at the intact mud seal and said to Zhao Gao: "Take the special envoy down to eat."
"promise."
After Zhao Gao and Xin left, a smile appeared on Ying Zheng's calm face for the first time. He took a deep breath, then unscrewed the copper tube and took out the silk book inside.
After translating the secret text, Ying Zheng burst out laughing in Zhangtai Palace.
The promise he made when he was young finally came true. He was a warrior in the Qin Dynasty, his horse trampled Handan, and the Zhao family's ancestral temple and state were destroyed in one fell swoop.
When Zhao Gao arrived again, Ying Zheng had already calmed down his emotions and regained his composure: "Zhao Gao, please order Li Si, Wang Wan, Wei Liao, Zheng Guo and others to enter Zhangtai Palace."
"promise."
The battle to destroy Zhao was coming to an end. Ying Zheng knew clearly that with the combined power of Wang Jian and Zhao Shu, plus four to five million Qin warriors, Li Mu could not stop him.
Ying Zheng, who couldn't control his excitement, walked to the huge map in Zhangtai Palace and looked at the map that divided the general trend of the world. His naked ambition was clearly revealed.
The State of Zhao was the biggest stumbling block for the Qin Dynasty to move eastward. The destruction of Handan City this time meant that the Qin Dynasty had eliminated the biggest obstacle to annexing the six countries.
Unification of the world is just around the corner!
As time passed, the excitement in Ying Zheng's heart was forcibly suppressed, and he began to think about the questions raised by Yang Duanhe in the silk book.
Issues related to King Zhao's lineage, Handan's treasury, Zhao's palace collection, Zhao's palace collection, etc. are all waiting for him to solve.
There are also rewards.
The battle to destroy Zhao is over, and rewards must be given. The reward cannot be delayed any longer, as any further delay will affect morale.
While Ying Zheng was thinking, all the ministers came together, walked into Zhangtai Palace, saluted Ying Zheng, and said: "I will pay my respects to the king. The king will last for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty will last for ten thousand years -!"
The voices of the ministers brought Ying Zheng back to his senses. Seeing that Li Si and others had arrived, Ying Zheng showed a smile on his face and said.
"Just now, the Jinling Arrow envoy came from Xianyang and brought good news. Handan has been conquered. Except for Daijun and Li Mu, all the other places in the Zhao Kingdom have been occupied by our great Qin."
"I have summoned you all here because of some matters related to Handan."
"For example, what happens to the Handan treasury, the Zhao royal family, and everyone in the Zhao court, as well as the collection of books in the Zhao court, and where will the Zhao ancestral temple and the country go..."
Ying Zheng looked at the ministers: "My dear friends, take your seats. In addition to these issues, the reward issue has also been moved up the agenda."
"I congratulate my king, my king will live for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty will live for ten thousand years——!" At this time, the ministers shouted loudly.
They were extremely excited when they received the news that the city of Handan had been destroyed. The city of Handan was destroyed and the Zhao Kingdom was destroyed. This meant that the shame that had been inflicted on Qin Wangzheng was washed away with blood.
Everyone sat down, and the servants brought tea one after another. They were each thinking about the problems in the Qin Dynasty. They all knew that when Handan was conquered, these were the urgent matters that needed to be solved.
About half an hour later, Zheng Guo was the first to speak, saying: "Your Majesty, I think the Handan Treasury is the treasury of the State of Zhao, which contains a lot of grain, grass, weapons, etc."
"Both the craftsmen of Zhao State and the grain of Zhao State will be transported to Xianyang."
"Your Majesty, I think we should take the lead in preparing the population register and the territory map of Zhao State, and appointing officials from various places in Zhao State."
At this moment, Feng Quji also turned towards Ying Zheng and said: "We still need to abolish Zhao's law, promote Qin's law, and encourage people to farm to restore production."
"Your Majesty, I think that the ancestral temple of the Zhao State should be abolished, and all the people of the Zhao State and the Zhao State's court, except the Zhao State Sheji, will move to Xianyang."
Wang Wan looked solemn and suggested to Ying Zheng, saying: "The lineage of King Zhao has been in Handan for hundreds of years and has accumulated great prestige. If they stay in Handan, they will be a huge trouble and the source of chaos."
"At the same time, transport all the Zhao royal family's books back to Xianyang..."
All the ministers were speaking, but Wei Liao and Li Si were silent.
Especially Li Si, who was in charge of the Tingwei Mansion, and Feng Quji had nothing to say about promoting Qin's laws. Naturally, he had nothing to say.
Ying Zheng drank tea, listened to the suggestions of the ministers, and couldn't help but nodded slightly, and finally his eyes fell on Li Si and Wei Liao.
"Since the beginning, the two dear friends have been silent. Do you have anything to say?"
