I Want To Be Qin II

As Ying Gao said, it doesn't matter whether he is in Xianyang or not. Although he is famous, his main influence is still in the military.

As for Li Si and others, they only respected his status as the crown prince. As for the royal family, Queen Mother Huayang passed away at the wrong time. Neither he nor King Qin had time to mourn.

The current situation must be that Weiyang Jun Yingxi came to mourn and handle the funeral of the Queen Mother Huayang on behalf of the clan and Qin Wangzheng.

The situation in the Central Plains is complicated. The Qin Dynasty even destroyed Korea and earthquakes and droughts occurred continuously. Public opinion swept the entire Central Plains. At this time, the Qin Dynasty must be based in Xianyang.

In a country and a royal family, state affairs are always more important than family affairs, let alone an emperor like Qin Wangzheng.

The heir issue that once worried Qin Wangzheng has been perfectly resolved. At this time, Qin Wangzheng is even less likely to focus on family affairs instead of state affairs.

"After passing the order, we will rest in Shu County and then continue south to Xiazhou. Now, all the roads from Xianyang to Bashu have been connected, and only Xiazhou is left..."

At this time, Ying Gao frowned slightly. He knew very well that the state pastor of Xiazhou was Meng Yi. Logically speaking, Meng Yi had good methods, he was also a general, and his behavior was clean and tidy, so this would not happen. situation.

However, Bashu and other places are surrounded by mountains, which is the most difficult place to dig a Chi Road. This is why later generations have lamented that the road to Shu is difficult and difficult to reach the sky.

Now the Chi Road between Bashu and Bashu has been connected, but Xiazhou has not. Instead, it has been delaying. This makes Ying Gao a little puzzled. It is precisely because of this that Ying Gao brought a heavy army into Xiazhou this time.

He naturally trusts Meng Yi, but this trust cannot replace his worries about the situation. Liangzhou and Xiazhou are of great importance to Great Qin.

Especially related to Ying Gao's idea of ​​​​running Chidao through Xiazhou, Liangzhou and Xianyang, nourishing the two states with the Silk Road, and then prospering the entire Qin homeland.

Moreover, the Chidao in Xiazhou has been postponed, which will affect the construction of Chidao in Liangzhou and Xianyang. The construction of Chidao is related to Great Qin's control of Liangzhou and Xiazhou.

After resting for a night in Shu County, Ying Gao and Wang Ben led the army south. This time the matter was urgent. The only purpose of Ying Gao's trip was to inspect Chidao and Shennong Valley.

As for other government affairs and what happens at the county level, there are dedicated personnel to count and monitor, so there is no need for Ying Gao to intervene too much.

"rumble........"

Riding on their horses, the Great Qin warriors marched extremely fast. Five days later, Ying Gao and others arrived at the Prefectural Mufu of Xiazhou and met with Xiazhou Prefectural Mu Mengyi.

"Your Majesty Meng Yi, Wang Li pays homage to the Crown Prince!" The officials of the Prefecture and Mufu Mansion, headed by Meng Yi, saluted Ying Gao one after another.

Looking at Meng Yi and Wang Li, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Ying Gao chuckled, then stretched out his hand to support them, and said: "Mengzhou Mu, Wang Zhouwei and all your dear friends don't need to be polite, get up."

"promise."

Everyone stood up, and Meng Yi nodded towards Wang Ben and said, "Tongwuhou, it's been a long time."

At the same time, Wang Li's eyes were reddish, and he saluted Wang Ben and said, "I've met my father!"

Wang Ben nodded towards Meng Yi, then helped Wang Li up, patted Wang Li on the shoulder and chuckled, saying: "Not bad, he has grown stronger and darker."

After some pleasantries, Meng Yi turned to Ying Gao and said, "Your Majesty, this is not the place to talk. I have already prepared a banquet. Please—!"

"good."

After taking the soldiers into the Prefecture Mufu, Meng Yi brought Ying Gao and others into the study, and asked the attendants to fill the cups with tea. After the attendants left, Meng Yi raised his hands towards Ying Gao and said.

"Congratulations to the Crown Prince, for destroying Han in one battle and shocking the Central Plains!"

After taking a sip of tea, Ying Gao smiled and said: "South Korea is too weak. As long as my father wants to send troops, anyone can destroy South Korea. It is not Gu's meritorious service, but the death of the great Qin warriors."

At this point, Ying Gao changed the subject and turned to Wang Li, saying, "Wang Zhouwei, has Xiazhou's military strength been integrated over the past few years? How is its combat effectiveness?"

In this era, Ying Gao has always felt that the army is the most important. As long as the 100,000 troops in Xiazhou have combat power and are absolutely loyal, even if there is a problem in Xiazhou, he can completely sweep it away.

Hearing this, Wang Li suppressed his excitement and said to Ying Gao: "Prince, the army of 100,000 has been trained and has absolute combat power. Although it is not as good as the warriors of the Qin Dynasty, it can be compared with the armies of the Shandong countries." .”

"The speech problem in the military has been resolved..."

"Um."

Nodding slightly, Ying Gao took a sip of tea, then turned his gaze on Meng Yi and said, "Mengzhou Mu, how is the situation in Xiazhou? Has the issue of returning home been completely resolved?"

"Prince, the academy in Yuecheng has been established, and the change of customs for the local people has basically ended. Today, in Xiazhou, there is only one kind of writing being circulated."

Meng Yi had a thoughtful look in his eyes. He knew in his heart that Ying Gao would have absolutely nothing to do when he arrived at this time. He naturally got news about some things that happened in Da Qin.

At such a critical moment, Ying Gao came to Xiazhou, so there must be a big problem.

After thinking about this, Meng Yi continued towards Ying Gao and said: "At the same time, due to the cooperation with the Great Qin Soldiers Pension Fund, the construction of Xiazhou is gradually underway."

"..."

Ying Gao's fingers were undoubtedly twitching. He was thinking that some things really needed to be improved, but Meng Yi and others still had some credit for their efforts, but the progress was far behind his requirements.

After thinking about this, Ying Gao turned to Meng Yi and said, "Gu naturally sees the contribution of Meng Zhou Mu and Wang Zhou Wei, but these are not enough."

"According to the news I got, the Chi Road in Xiazhou has not yet been penetrated, and there has been no movement in the research and development of grain seeds in Shennong Valley. Shouldn't you two give me an explanation for this?"

As soon as these words came out, the entire Prefecture Mufu fell into deathly silence. Wang Ben opened his mouth, but stopped when he wanted to speak. He fell silent. He knew in his heart that it was not suitable for him to speak at this moment.

Wang Li and Meng Yi looked at each other, and both of them saw heaviness in each other's eyes. He knew in his heart that Ying Gao had rarely questioned them so harshly.

After a while, Meng Yi spoke first, raised his hand towards Ying Gaoyi, and said: "Your Majesty, there are many mountains and dense forests in Xiazhou, and the construction of Chidao is too slow."

"Moreover, Xiazhou has heavy rainfall and more rainy weather, which seriously affects the construction schedule. The minister and the state captain went to the Chidao project more than once to supervise, but the effect is still not satisfactory, so that the project has been delayed."
