Ying Zheng's decision to take the Zen position was actually not too sudden.

He had had this idea before, but he had not thought of the specific time!

It was during this trip to Yanmen Pass that I truly felt the rapid and stable development of the Qin Dynasty.

In addition, Feng Quji started planning to travel after retirement, which moved him even more. He felt that he should take a rest after working hard for half his life!

The most important thing is that Ying Feiyu has the strength to ascend to the throne!

If it were in the past, let alone giving up the throne, even if he was to establish a prince, he would not know who to choose.

Among all the princes, no one is worthy of a big responsibility!

Otherwise, he would not have been seeking immortality.

There is no suitable candidate to take over the world that he worked so hard to conquer. If he doesn't live forever, won't he fall into the hands of others?

Fortunately, the sky has eyes and allowed Feiyu to come to him and inherit their Qin Kingdom's hundreds of years of foundation!

The train sped along and arrived at the station outside Xianyang around the time we entered the city.

The old guys went back to their respective homes. Before leaving, they were informed that they would attend the morning court the next day as usual, except for the prince.

This kid is very lazy, so he can't be pushed too hard, otherwise he will be even more unwilling to take the throne!

After receiving the order, everyone flattened their mouths and looked tired, but they did not dare to say a word.

"Your Majesty is really determined to do it! It's too late, and before we get home and take a nap, Yinshi has to go to court again. We're going to be tortured to death!"

After parting ways, Kang Anping dragged his tired body and couldn't help complaining.

Since Ying Zheng proposed that he would pass the throne to the crown prince after his retirement, he gradually brought the topic to the past, pulling them to reminisce about the past.

From the beginning of the Qin Kingdom, to his ascension to the throne, to dealing with Lu Buwei and Lao Ai, and gradually to the unification of the six countries, every step was so difficult!

The old guys chatted with me seriously at first, but in the end, they were all so sleepy that they just kept their eyes open.

As a result, I have to be told that I will go to court tomorrow morning!

Wouldn't this cost them their lives?

"Alas! Be content. We are officials in Da Qin. If we change to another country, we will either be destroyed or become slaves and not even have enough to eat!"

"Yes! Didn't you hear what His Majesty said? Next year we will deal with the Xiqiang!"

"Xiqiang...?"

When this matter was mentioned, the old guys' eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had thought of something.

"Well...it's so late, I'll go back to sleep first!"

"Yes, yes, yes, we have to go to court early tomorrow, and I'm leaving too!"

"I have to go back and take a nap for a while, otherwise I won't be energetic tomorrow morning!"

The old guys made excuses one by one and hurried towards the mansion.

His state also changed from listless before to very excited, with a strange light shining in his eyes.

The Qiang people have a vast territory and, like the Xiongnu, are nomadic people.

Since His Majesty is determined to exterminate the Qiang people, that means there will be military merit to be earned!

Just thinking of this, all the old guys hurried home one by one!

Then he called all his children and grandchildren and told them the good news!

The great Qin son, as long as he has military exploits, can be granted the title of wife and son.

"I'm telling you, from now on, you all should behave well for me, strive to have a good relationship with His Highness, and strive to seize this opportunity to go to the battlefield!"

"Going to the battlefield today is no different than before. It's almost a flat push with very few casualties. As long as we get this opportunity, military merit will definitely be indispensable!"

"Da Qin is getting stronger and stronger, and there will definitely be fewer and fewer opportunities to go to the battlefield in the future, which means fewer and fewer military achievements. If we don't seize this time, there's no telling when it will happen next time!"

"You brats are not good at studying. If you don't seize this opportunity, you will become nothing after I die...!"

These old guys said these words over and over in front of their children and grandchildren, and almost every family heard the same thing.

Although Wang Bi, Zhang Han and others are now six ministers, everyone respects them, but none of their sons are outstanding!

After they die, their children and grandchildren will no longer be valued, and if they are not saved, they will be kicked out of the court!

If we don't make some military exploits now, what will we do in the future?

After being scolded in the middle of the night, the old guys went to court the next day, and the younger ones went to Ying Feiyu to complain, saying that they were scolded for nothing.

Kang Anping even raised the sole of his shoe to slap his son. Fortunately, he was stopped, otherwise he would have been bruised and swollen today!

"Your Highness, you must save us! When His Majesty selects the vanguard of the Qiang expedition, you must recommend a few of us to His Majesty. Otherwise, you also know my temper!"

"That's right! We don't want to be generals, let alone commander-in-chief. We can just be vanguards!"

"Oh! If it doesn't work out, you can just be a leading soldier. All you have to do is go there!"

"Yes, yes! If my father and I see everyone else going and we are the only ones who don't go, we will have to take our skin off...!"

Meng Yi's sons Meng Yun and Meng Yu, Zhang Han's son Zhang Tiancheng and others spoke one after another.

There is only one purpose, begging Ying Feiyu to let them go to the battlefield!

Before this, no family wanted their children to go to war, because that would be equivalent to throwing half of their sons' lives into hell.

On the battlefield, swords have no eyes, and injuries are commonplace. Being able to come back alive is already considered good!

But it's different now. With a few groups of bombardments, the enemy is already stunned, and it's much easier to attack again.

Coupled with the appearance of the hair-colored gun, the battle became even more one-sided.

Therefore, after the old guys got the news, they pushed their sons out immediately, and they were bound to let them do more military exploits!

"That's what my father said about the conquest of Qiang. I don't know whether or when we will send troops!"

Ying Feiyu laughed helplessly.

Who knows if the old guy said that just to get himself to agree to inherit the throne, or if he really wants to conquer the Qiang?

But then again, the Qiang people are aware of current affairs. After discovering that Da Qin became more and more powerful, they honestly never invaded Da Qin's border or harassed the people on the border.

If not, he would have already suggested sending troops to exterminate the Qiang.

Can we let them wait until today?

"It doesn't matter, as long as His Royal Highness remembers this!"

"Yes, yes, don't worry about where the expedition is, just let us go. Even if we are a fire-headed army, you must get us into the military camp!"

Several young masters begged hard.

This shows how strict their father is to them.

"Okay! Don't worry, if my father really intends to conquer the Qiang, I will definitely let you go together!"

Seeing several guys who were a head taller than him begging here, Ying Feiyu really couldn't bear to refuse.

"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness! Thank you, Your Highness!"

Several people thanked him profusely.

"Don't be too hasty to thank me. From today on, all of you will practice hard with the Flying Eagles. When you get to the battlefield, you will strive to take the lead!"

"It's done! Your Highness, Prince, you can rest assured!"

A few people agreed immediately without even thinking about it.
