The court meeting is coming.
The courtiers arrived at the gate of the palace in carriages.
After entering the door, they all took out their wheelchairs and rushed to the Yizheng Hall leisurely.
I have to say, this wheelchair is a good thing.
The courtiers are older, and the palace is so big. When walking from the palace gate to the government hall, they are often too tired to breathe.
During the court meeting, the first half of the period is usually smooth.
Now that we have a wheelchair, it is much better. It can save worry and effort and take good care of the body.
After the courtiers started using wheelchairs, the wealthy people in Xianyang City also began to follow suit.
So Li Xin's wheelchair business is very good.
Li Shui regretted selling the wheelchair patent to Li Xin so cheaply.
Who would have thought that Xianyang people are so perverted? I like sitting on this thing.
The courtiers arrived at the door of the Council Hall comfortably, and then they stood together and started chatting.
The people who talked about the most were naturally the barbarians who appeared recently.
This incident has spread throughout Xianyang City, and most people are filled with indignation.
Just when they were talking about the excitement, they suddenly saw Feng Quli walking over with striding steps.
Feng Quili did not use a wheelchair because he stayed up all night last night. He wrote an impassioned text and memorized it carefully.
This text made Feng Quli feel a blazing fire in his heart.
He was impatient to wait for something as slow as a wheelchair.
Feng Renji smiled and said to Feng Quli, "Brother, you have good legs and feet."
Feng Quli chuckled and did not answer.
Ever since Feng Renji took refuge in the Exalted Immortal, he had become a different person and became very confident.
This kind of self-confidence made Feng Quli feel very uncomfortable. So he gradually alienated Feng Renji.
But Feng Renji didn't care. When he worked with Feng Quli, all he did was dirty, tiring and smelly work.
Like a tool man, he goes around impeaching others without guaranteeing personal safety if something goes wrong.
How can it be better to banish an immortal?
Banishing the Immortal is really kind to his own people.
In the past, everyone would slander the banished immortal when they had nothing to do. After truly taking refuge in the banished immortal, Feng Quli discovered that it was really delicious.
Chunyu Yue looked at the crowd around him, then shook his head slightly, thinking with some dissatisfaction: Huai Guzi and Li Xin are always the last.
Li Shui and Li Xin had actually just entered the palace gate.
The two men were discussing the matter of the barbarian envoys.
Li Shui said to Li Xin: "Brother Li, this barbarian envoy should not be underestimated. The barbarians this time are also different from the past."
"This country has a vast area, a large population, strong fighting power, and a strong desire to expand. They are very different from the Maurya Kingdom. We must not be reckless. We should first send people to find out clearly, and then formulate a plan, and then attack in one fell swoop. If you want to destroy me, you must not act rashly or let me, Da Qin Erlang, die in a foreign land in vain."
Li Xin nodded: "Of course I know this. Know yourself and your enemy, and you won't be in danger in a hundred battles."
When the two of them walked to the door of the government hall, a young eunuch walked in and invited all the courtiers to enter the court.
Li Shui said with a smile: "It's better to come early than to come by chance."
The courtiers looked at each other: What kind of nonsense is this?
However, the court meeting was about to begin, and no one was in the mood to argue with Li Shui about this.
After everyone entered the court and sat down, Ying Zheng arrived.
At the beginning of the court meeting, the matter of the barbarian envoys was discussed.
To Li Shui's surprise, the courtiers were furious, as if they wanted to cut the so-called Augustus into pieces.
Ying Zheng was somewhat satisfied with the performance of these people.
At this time, Feng Quli stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead one hundred thousand troops to conquer the barbarian country within three months."
Feng Quili felt that what he said was justified.
Didn't Li Shui and Li Xin destroy the Huns within a few months? Didn’t they destroy the Peacock Kingdom without spending a single soldier?
In this case, if he destroyed the so-called barbarian country in three months, it was the normal performance of the Qin army.
Ying Zheng looked at him with satisfaction: "Okay, okay."
Feng Quili is indeed capable of commanding troops, but...does he understand the enemy?
Li Shui was skeptical.
He cleared his throat, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think... it is not appropriate to act rashly."
As soon as these words came out, the courtiers were stunned, and Ying Zheng was also stunned.
This...this is different from what was discussed last time.
Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui strangely: "What? Do you think it's inappropriate to send troops?"
Li Shui said: "I believe that this country is ambitious. If it were not blocked by mountains and deserts, they would have become a border trouble for our Great Qin."
"Now that our Great Qin has expanded its territory and is bordering this country, they are definitely willing to give up. Therefore, we must send troops. But we should take a long-term view, understand the characteristics of this country's soldiers, and understand..."
Before he finished speaking, Feng Quili patted his chest and said, "What? Are you afraid of being banished to an immortal?"
Li Shui: "..."
Is this guy crazy? Did you get chicken blood?
Feng Quli was a little excited.
Exiled Immortal, that person has always been fearless and daring.
Is he actually afraid today? Doesn’t that highlight my bravery even more?
Afterwards, Feng Quili began to recite the manuscript he had written last night impassionedly.
Feng Quili's voice became hoarse as he carried it to the point of excitement.
All the civil and military officials in the dynasty were moved by it.
Even a mature and steady person like Chun Yuyue was a little excited.
After all, the Great Qin campaign went so smoothly, first destroying the Six Kingdoms, then the Xiongnu, South Vietnam, and the Peacock Kingdom.
If you really fight, you will win, and if you attack, you will win.
In the Qin people's understanding, this land is favored by the gods. All places in the world were given to the Qin people by God, and they were just waiting for the Qin people to take them.
Therefore, they have no idea what a barbarian country and that weird name are like mules and horses. Didn't care at all.
Some courtiers even whispered and said in a low voice: "I heard that a person who is reckless when he is young will calm down after marrying a wife and having children."
"I didn't believe this in the past, but now looking at the banished immortal, I suddenly believe it."
Li Shui: "What the hell..."
Someone else said: "In the past, the banished immortals did not get married. If one person was full and the whole family was not hungry, naturally he would dare to say anything."
"Now that I have a wife and a little banished immortal, I can't help but be cautious. In fact, it's human nature, so don't laugh at me."
Li Shui: "..."
He looked at Li Xin: "Brother Li, is my character going to collapse?"
Li Xin hummed: "Almost. But what is a personality?"
Li Shui: "..."
He said to Li Xin: "Your Majesty seems determined to send troops, and he wants Feng Quli, who screamed the loudest, to send troops. Why don't you stop them?"
Li Xin sighed and said faintly: "I suddenly remembered that in the past when I led troops to attack Chu, I was so confident, so proud and arrogant. In the end, I was defeated, abandoned my armor, and became a laughing stock."
"When I see Mr. Feng today, I feel like I have seen myself in the past. I feel really sad."
Li Xin's voice was loud, and Feng Quili obviously heard it.
But after he heard it, he completely regarded these words as a way to provoke the general, so he screamed louder.
He patted his chest and said loudly: "If the barbarian country cannot be destroyed within three months, I am willing to raise my head to see you."
Li Shui: "..."
Li Xin said with a smile: "Brother Huai, he seems to be imitating you in gambling."
Li Shui sighed: "I'm betting on my life, so I'm sure of it. If he's betting on his life... then he's really risking his life."
After Feng Quli heard this, his teeth itched with hatred.
He sneered in his heart: "Hmph, you dare to look down on me? Now you can laugh at me as much as you like. When I make my triumphant return in three months, haha..."
In an instant, Feng Quli imagined the scene of flags waving and hundreds of officials coming out to welcome him.
So, he couldn't help but grin.
Ying Zheng thought for a while and said calmly: "I will give you six months. Although the barbarian country has nothing to worry about, it cannot be arrogant and underestimate the enemy."
Feng Quli happily agreed.
He was already happy: Haha, six months? I think one and a half months is enough.
After the court meeting ended, Feng Quli quickly made arrangements to send troops.
He felt that he was now the most popular person in the court.
Li Shui looked at the high-spirited courtiers and said to Li Xin: "Brother Li, this is not okay. Everyone is already arrogant."
Li Xin hummed: "They look more and more like you."
Li Shui scratched his head: "Really?"
Li Shui thought for a while and said: "Actually, our Qin Dynasty is prosperous, so it's okay to be arrogant. But I have heard about this barbarian country, and it is not easy to deal with. Let's send out some spies to find out about the other side. situation, and then leave it to Feng Quli and ask him to be careful."
Li Xin hummed, and then looked at Li Shui in confusion: "It's strange, someone wants to die on his own, why are you holding him back to prevent him from dying? This doesn't look like you."
Li Shui sighed: "I pity those innocent soldiers."
Li Shui's people were quickly sent out.
These people are not Central Plains people, but Huns.
Sometimes the Huns would follow the caravans to the barbarian country, so they knew a lot about it. It would be most suitable for them to go and inquire about the situation. At least there would be no language barrier.
These Huns first took a train to the western border of Da Qin, then transferred to fast horses and quickly entered the barbarian country.
Although they traveled thousands of miles, it actually only took them two or three days.
A week later, a steady stream of information began to spread back to Xianyang City.
Li Shui trained these Huns very well. They were not only able to skillfully disguise their identities and collect intelligence, but also established an intelligence network.
Therefore, the barbarian country would soon become transparent to Da Qin.
After this information was sorted out at Shangjun Courtyard, it was quickly sent to Feng Quili's house.
As a result... Feng Quli didn't even look at it.
Feng Quli had a good reason not to watch: What can't a shameless person like Ban Xian do? Maybe he deliberately gave me wrong information in order to help me lose the battle...
I have to say that Feng Quli is quite imaginative.
However, Feng Quili was not someone who just led troops and went to work. He also planned to learn a little about the barbarian country.
So he ordered people to bring the barbarian envoys.
At this time, more than ten days had passed since the barbarian envoy was imprisoned in the post house.
The barbarian envoy was already skin and bones from hunger.
These days, he never dares to eat.
Sometimes I was really hungry and couldn't bear it anymore, so I would steal something to eat, and even eat some grass roots and bark.
Moreover, he didn't dare to sleep much. Occasionally he would feel terribly sleepy, so he would take a nap against the wall.
If there is any disturbance outside, the barbarian messenger will wake up immediately and look around vigilantly.
As for drinking water, just wait for the rain or morning dew.
Sometimes there is no water to drink, and the messenger will recycle the water...
Therefore, these days, he couldn't eat well or sleep well, he was sleepy and hungry, and he almost looked like a human.
After Feng Quli saw this person, he asked his subordinates in confusion: "Have you abused this person?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Feng Quili said in surprise: "Since there was no abuse, how did this person become like this?"
He asked the barbarian envoy in a pleasant manner: "Tell me, what is the area of the barbarian country? What is its population? Is it bordering the original land of the Huns? Is there a dry road to the Peacock Kingdom?"
The messenger didn't answer. He stared straight at the food and wine in Feng Quili's camp.
Feng Quli smiled and said, "Come here, give him some food."
The food was quickly served, but the messenger did not dare to eat it.
Feng Quili shook his head: "This person is actually a little reserved. In the past, I heard people say that barbarian envoys are extremely arrogant. When I saw him today, it seems that this is not the case."
Just as he was talking, he heard a thump and the messenger fell to the ground.
Feng Quili was taken aback, and quickly ordered someone to help the envoy up, and then asked, "What's wrong with him?"
The people around him checked the messenger's breathing, scratched their heads, and said: "He is still alive, and there seems to be nothing serious. From a small person's perspective, he seems to be... fainted from hunger..."
Feng Quili said with emotion: "He is really a loyal and righteous man. Although I want to destroy the barbarian country, there is no need to kill such righteous men. It is not bad to keep them."
Just when Feng Quli was sighing randomly, Liu Ji had already embarked on a journey in the New World thousands of miles away.
All the natives under him disappeared and were dispersed into different teams by Xu Fu.
Liu Ji now nominally leads an army and becomes the county guard of New Hanzhong.
But this unit seems to be a bit immobile.
They all heard that Xu Fu arranged for a sailor to come here. This sailor's name was Wang Shishi.
The name is vulgar and the person is vulgar.
This guy didn't seem to know what it meant to be superior to the younger. He obviously had a lower official position than Liu Ji, but he was arrogant, domineering and arrogant. He trained Liu Ji like a grandson several times.
Liu Ji felt aggrieved in his heart.
If he was Wang Shishi's subordinate, then that would be fine. If you get scolded, just get scolded. If you are a senior official, it is nothing to crush someone to death.
But he happened to be Wang Shishi's superior, such a psychological gap.
Sigh...that's embarrassing.
But there was no one around Liu Ji who could talk.
Fan Kuai and Lu Wan have already gone to work elsewhere.
Liu Ji suddenly regretted surrendering. He felt like he was going crazy.
