Under Chen Huai's gaze, Qin Feng slowly stood up and walked around the lobby with his hands behind his back, analyzing the pros and cons to himself.
"I have put a lot of effort into opening up the trade routes between Daliang and Beidi, as well as Gaoshan and Yuezhao Kingdoms."
"Although it is said to be four directions, there are actually at least a dozen foreign countries and countries that trade through Beixi County."
"The improvement of life in the north is naturally due to Beixi County, and Beixi County relies on trade routes."
"Once the king hands over power and the northern territory changes ownership, there will be a big question mark as to whether the trade routes can be maintained."
"As long as the trade routes are lost, the background will deteriorate faster than you can imagine."
"And this is just about people's livelihood."
Having said this, Qin Feng turned to look at Chen Huai and found that Chen Huai was completely silent and no longer spoke.
Qin Feng had no intention of stopping and continued: "How can Daliang maintain peace with Beidi?"
"It's not because there is the North in the middle."
"If there were no stumbling block like me, it would only be a matter of time before Beidi makes a comeback."
"Beidi is poor in supplies, so going south to plunder is inevitable."
"By then, Daliang and Beidi will once again be locked in an endless war."
"Moreover, the border pattern has been broken. The political positions of neighboring countries such as Gaoshan Country and Yuezhao Country have changed. Will they join forces with Daliang and share the same hatred to block Beidi, or will they join forces with Beidi and take advantage of the situation?"
"Have you considered all of this?"
"No! You didn't. You were just holding on to some bullshit loyalty plaque. You don't know what it means!"
"Everything I do is for the people in the north, but everything you do is only for yourself."
"The reason why you are upright and not afraid of the slanting shadow, and why you are willing to be unyielding, in the final analysis, it is not because you can't let go of your poor self-esteem, and for the sake of the so-called aboveboard, you will not hesitate to drag the entire northern people to be buried with you."
"Chen Huai, I want to ask you, who is the treacherous minister and who is the loyal minister among us?"
Facing Qin Feng's questioning, Chen Huai was speechless and even more ashamed.
At this moment, he finally understood how naive and even ridiculous his thoughts were.
The Northern Territory cannot do without Qin Feng. Everyone knows this. Once Qin Feng is lost, all the prosperity of the Northern Territory will be wiped out in an instant.
In this case, what reason does Chen Huai have to oppose Qin Feng?
If you are stubborn, wouldn't you really become what Qin Feng calls a foolish minister?
But now that we understand this, what’s the use? He has sent the impeachment letter, even if nothing can be changed, but in the north, he has become Qin Feng's enemy.
Stubbornness and pedantry, in the end, only the whole family will be retaliated by Qin Feng. Other than that, it has no meaning.
Chen Huai held the impeachment letter, lowered his head, and said dejectedly: "The King of Qin taught you the right lesson. I really simplified the problem."
"Since King Qin came to the north, although Xiaguan has not made any great achievements, he has been working hard, working hard and never making any mistakes."
"Please King Qin, for the sake of the official, who has no merit but hard work, only punish the official, so that the official's family can survive."
Chen Huai knows Qin Feng's behavior. Anyone who dares to stand against Qin Feng will be struck by thunder.
But just when Chen Huai was desperate, Qin Feng reached out and patted Chen Huai on the shoulder.
"Why are you panicking?"
"When did I say that I would punish you?"
Hearing this, Chen Huai couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly turned to look at Qin Feng, his eyes wide open.
"Does the King of Qin not intend to punish the official? The official has sent several letters of impeachment to the court."
Qin Feng immediately raised his head and laughed: "Hahaha, when is it? I have already fought against His Majesty, so what's the point of just a few letters of impeachment?"
"You old guy, although you are a bit pedantic, you are a good official."
"No matter how violent I am, I will never attack a good official in the eyes of the people."
"You can just continue to be your Anyuan County Magistrate with peace of mind."
Chen Huai couldn't believe his ears. Qin Feng, who had always been decisive in killing, was betrayed by Chen Huai, not to mention revenge, not even a curse.
Before Chen Huai could recover from his surprise, Mrs. Chen, who had been hiding behind the door, ran in and knelt down in front of Qin Feng with a thud, bursting into tears.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Mrs. Chen's mood at this time can simply be described as ups and downs.
She originally thought that the whole family would be dragged to death by Chen Huai, but she didn't expect Qin Feng to be so generous. This made her feel almost desperate and suddenly regained her life.
Seeing Chen Huai standing there in a daze, Mrs. Chen couldn't help it anymore and urged loudly: "Why are you still standing there in a daze? Quickly thank the prince for not killing him."
"Let me tell you what's good about you? If it weren't for the prince, how could the Northern Territory be what it is today? What's better for you is that you impeached the prince behind his back."
"If the prince hadn't been so broad-minded, the whole family would have been killed by you."
Chen Huai just woke up from a dream. His old face turned red and he immediately knelt down towards Qin Feng: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
As a result, before Chen Huai's knees touched the ground, Qin Feng had already stretched his feet in.
Chen Huai's knee was just padded by Qin Feng's right foot.
Chen Huai was stunned again: "Why is this happening, Your Majesty?"
Qin Feng was not in a hurry to answer. He reached out and grabbed Chen Huai's shoulders and pulled him up from the ground.
"Although I and Your Majesty are on separate sides, they have never thought of betraying Daliang. I am still the prince of Daliang."
"And you, of course, are also an official in Daliang."
"From now on, all officials in the northern border will not have to kneel."
Hearing this, Chen Huai was first impressed, and then secretly felt ashamed.
He must have been kicked in the head by a donkey, otherwise how could he have tried every means to impeach Qin Feng? Wouldn't it be a sin to impeach such a prince who cares about the world?
Chen Huai took a deep breath and nodded heavily: "I understand!"
"From now on, Xiaguan only has Daliang in his heart."
In Qin Feng's heart, he had already distinguished Daliang and Emperor Liang. Qin Feng was loyal to Daliang, but no longer loyal to Emperor Liang.
Moreover, the reason why he did not punish Chen Huai was because of Chen Huai's stubborn character.
For people like this, once they recognize a truth, even nine oxen cannot pull them back.
Let Chen Huai guard Anyuan County, which is the most suitable candidate.
After all, it won't be long before Anyuan County will become the most important battlefield between the North and Daliang, and also the most anxious battlefield.
If it were a person with a "smooth" personality who guarded Anyuan County, Qin Feng would really be worried.
