When they were about to leave, Ying Zheng, Zhao Gao and Gai Nie appeared in front of the crowd and looked at them with a smile.
"Your Majesty." Ziyou and others saluted.
"No need to be polite, teacher, where are you going?" Ying Zheng asked.
"We are going to the military camp." Ziyou said.
Wang Jian and Meng Wu felt a little embarrassed. Ying Zheng held a banquet to celebrate them. After they finished eating, they went to the second game. Isn't it obvious that they disliked Ying Zheng's poor preparation? But Ying Zheng didn’t feel this embarrassment and said
"I'm being careless. I forgot that you are all from the army. You don't like this kind of drinking. How about I go with you? I also want to see what it's like in the military camp."
Wang Jian, Meng Wu and others are looking at me. I don’t think you dare to talk to anyone.
Ying Zheng saw what they were thinking and continued.
"There is no king today, just a Qin man who wants to take a look at our Da Qin soldiers and experience the life in the Da Qin military camp."
"If that's the case, your Majesty can go with us." Ziyou said, it would be impossible not to let Ying Zheng go, so Ying Zheng went as he said.
"Okay, don't call me the king. Call me Zhao Tong or Zhao Xiaowei." Ying Zheng said.
Hearing that Ying Zheng began to call himself me, these generals breathed a sigh of relief and followed Ziyou and Ying Zheng to the military camp outside Xianyang City. At this time, there was a lot of noise in the military camp, and the noise could be heard at the gate of Xianyang City. , the bonfire lit up the entire military camp, and the patrol and guard tasks of the military camp were taken over by the Xianyang Imperial Guard and the Yulin Army, allowing these people to relax.
After Ziyou and others arrived at the military camp, the soldiers did not notice that they were grouped around a bonfire, joking loudly and fighting for wine. There were also competitions such as drinking and arm wrestling between one group and the other. , several school lieutenants sat together talking and drinking together, but after seeing Ziyou Yingzheng and others arriving, their original drunkenness disappeared immediately. Just as they were about to salute Yingzheng, Yingzheng stopped them.
"There is no king today. Please feel free to call me Colonel Zhao." Ying Zheng said.
The few captains looked at me. In the end, they could only nod and then took out mats and desks for them. There were no wine glasses on the desks, but bowls. One of the captains said in Yongcheng dialect.
"Forgive me, Lieutenant Zhao, but the wine glass is not suitable for rough people like us."
The captain next to him kicked his calf to signal him to stop talking.
"It's okay. I wasn't raised in a pampered way. When I was a kid, I would be happy to have a complete bowl of good food." Ying Zheng picked up the bowl in his hand and drank all the wine in one gulp. His childhood in HD could be described as It was a purgatory on earth. The Zhao people transferred the hatred of the Changping War to him. People came to his and Zhao Ji's residence every day to cause trouble. The guards who looked after them didn't care about those people at all, as long as he and his mother's lives were not safe. It's dangerous, these guards won't even look at it.
Everyone also picked up their wine glasses and started drinking. Ziyou, Ying Zheng, Meng Wu and Wang Jian sat together and drank and talked. Li Xin, Yang Duanhe, Feng Wuze and Bai Yifei who were around were also talking. As he spoke, the other captains secretly ran to another bonfire to join in.
"Sure enough, the lively atmosphere here is much better than the banquet." Ying Zheng said, listening to the noise and laughter around him, Ying Zheng felt particularly comfortable.
"The people in the army are all rough people. They don't have so much etiquette. They are surrounded by people who live and die together. They will show their truest side." Meng Wu said, compared to the people at the banquet He also likes the atmosphere here.
"Have the teacher told you about the Hidden Soldier Valley and the Military Soul Temple?" Ying Zheng asked.
Meng Wu and Wang Jian nodded, and Ziyou said
"Is it finished?"
"Yes, it has been completed. The Hidden Soldiers Valley has been built. As for the Military Soul Temple, I discussed it with the ministers and felt that the name of the Military Soul Temple was not good. After renegotiation, it was decided to be the National Protector Temple. A stone stele ten feet high and three feet wide was built by the workshop. It has a black base and vermilion as its name. It lists the kings of the past dynasties, the ministers and generals who contributed to the Qin State, and the soldiers who died fighting for the Qin State. Their names may no longer be found, but their serial numbers are still recorded in the book, and their serial numbers can be engraved in their place.
Not only in the army, anyone who contributed to Qin or died for state affairs will be recorded and sacrificed with the country. "Ying Zheng said.
This consideration is not only to improve the cohesion of the entire Qin State. The ministers value this more than the military officers and soldiers. What civil servants seek is a name, a name left in history. If they board this, why worry about not leaving a name in history? The same In order to balance the court, there must be a balance between civil servants and military generals. Once one party is too strong, it will lead to militarization or insufficient national combat power.
"It's better this way." Meng Wu and Wang Jian said in unison.
If the previously replaced serial numbers are engraved, allowing the soldiers who died in the previous battles to enjoy sacrifices and blood food will further demonstrate the importance Qin attaches to the soldiers. As for engraving the names of civil servants, they have no objection. Everyone has contributed. Of course.
"There are 3,287 soldiers who died in this battle, and they have all been recorded." Ziyou said.
"Well, that's good. When the time comes, I, the teacher, and the generals will carve the sacrifices of the soldiers with their own hands. This matter will be raised at the court meeting after the ancestor worship is completed the day after tomorrow, and it will be confirmed as a policy." Ying Zheng said, He had already thought about passing this thing on as a tradition, which would not only allow the king to remember these soldiers who sacrificed for the great cause of Qin, but also give the soldiers the greatest encouragement and glory.
"The pensions for these people are being arranged. We also ask Captain Zhao to send someone to supervise them to prevent anyone from committing fraud on the pensions and chilling the hearts of the families of the soldiers who died in the war." Ziyou said.
When it came to pensions, Wang Jian and Meng Wu also became serious. They were also worried about this matter. It was not unprecedented for them to falsify military pay and pensions. They all hated this matter extremely. The soldiers were fighting to the death outside. To have your family suffer after you die is to be embezzled and compensated by others. This is something that no soldier can tolerate.
"I know, I will have people strictly supervise this matter. Zhao Gao, this matter will be handed over to Luo Sheng. Anyone who dares to do something about the pension will be taken down on the spot and punished by the clan. I want them to know that I, Da Qin Soldiers must not be humiliated," Ying Zheng said.
"No!" Zhao Gao said with his hand, this is a good job, and he deserves a lot of credit. If he does this well, it is equivalent to establishing a good relationship with the military. Zhao Gao was very energetic. Regarding this matter, if anyone dared to reach out, Zhao Gao would not mind skinning him alive.
"As for their orphans, or children who intend to join the army, they have been registered by the Yulin Guards. The orphans are directly adopted by the Yulin Guards. If they intend to join the army, the Yulin Guards will give their families a quota, and they can join directly when they are old enough. The Yulin Guards are training," Ying Zheng said.
The Yulin Guards are his personal soldiers, and it has been determined that they will be selected from the descendants of the soldiers who died in the war. These people are the descendants of Guanglu's meritorious service. Their loyalty to the Qin State is unquestionable, and they also have families behind them. Support and resources are also available that others don’t have.
"This matter can be discussed with the Guowei to see the final number of people." Ziyou said.
The others nodded. As the discussion ended one by one, everyone drank a lot of wine. Ying Zheng also had a trace of drunkenness on his face. He looked a little dizzy. Zhao Gao and Gai Nie saw that Zhuang stopped drinking with the remaining people and helped Ying Zheng up. Ying Zheng said something to everyone and left.
Everyone wanted to salute when they saw this, but Ying Zheng stopped them.
Ying Zheng woke up instantly after walking out of the camp. Looking at the bustling military camp behind him, he couldn't help but feel a trace of envy in his eyes. Ying Zheng knew that staying there would only make others unable to let go. After experiencing it for a while, he could leave. He is the king of Qin and the future king of the world. He is destined to be lonely, so this noise is destined not to belong to him.
After Ying Zheng left, everyone who was still a little restrained immediately let go. Although Ying Zheng said there was no need to be restrained, none of them dared to really be restrained. Ying Zheng is always the king, and they are ministers. If the king really If his words were taken 100% seriously, they would have died that day.
Dun Rui even took off his armor, revealing his strong upper body, and began to arm-wrestle with Li Xin. Bai Yifei and Feng Wuze were competing for wine. The competition between the four attracted many soldiers to watch. Cheering loudly from the sidelines.
When Ying Zheng returned to Qin Palace, the eunuch next to Zhao Ji stopped them.
"What's the matter with the Queen Mother?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has hosted a family banquet in Ganquan Palace. The Queen, the Crown Prince and all the princes and concubines are all present," the eunuch said.
"Then let's go to Ganquan Palace." Ying Zheng said.
When Ying Zheng came to the door of Ganquan Palace, the noise inside could be heard. Although Ying Zheng now has some children, they are not many. Three sons and two daughters, two of whom were born to his queen. That is, Fusu's mother, a son and two daughters were born to two concubines. The queen and the concubines are all brothers and sisters, and they get along very harmoniously. The three of them are also working together on matters in Yingzheng's harem. .
After Ying Zheng opened the door and entered, the noise of everyone stopped. Zhao Ji, who was smiling, waved to Ying Zheng and said
"Zheng'er, come quickly, it's just you."
Hearing Zhao Ji call him Zheng'er instead of King, Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then walked to his seat with a smile and sat down, and said to Zhao Ji with a smile
"I kept my mother waiting for a long time. I just went to the military camp with the teacher."
"It's not too late now. Just now Fusu was telling the Ai family stories about the countryside, and this child was so frightened by the goose that he cried." Zhao Ji said with a smile.
The children and women around him laughed as well. Fusu lowered his head in embarrassment. Ying Zheng looked at Fusu and also laughed and said
"It's interesting. Wasn't I also chased and bitten by the neighbor's yellow dog?"
Hearing Ying Zheng say this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were also afraid that Ying Zheng would not be able to let go of the king's airs, so there was no one else in the hall except them, but now it seems that everything is gone. There was no waste, and Ying Zheng also put down his arrogance.
Everyone was also talking and laughing, talking about recent interesting things and the studies of Fusu's children. It was so lively that it didn't look like an imperial home, but an ordinary family. The cold wind outside the hall was blocked by the warm candlelight. outside.
At this time, in Master Wang's Mansion, Xue Nu, Concubine Yan, Jing Salamander and Yan Lingji looked at Young Siming.
"Shao Siming, why are you here?" Concubine Yan said. When she returned to the Yin Yang family, Shao Siming had not yet succeeded him, and he was still the Five Spirit Xuantong. She also taught Shao Siming the Yin and Yang technique.
Shao Si Destiny used his inner strength to form a line of characters on the ground with leaves and explained what happened. Only then did everyone understand that Shao Si Ming was arrested by Zi You.
"Xiaoyi can't speak because of her skills." Concubine Yan explained.
Everyone looked at Shao Siming with a softer look in their eyes. Xue Nu poured a pot of tea for Shao Siming and started asking questions. Shao Siming could only answer them with leaves. Everyone also cleaned up for Shao Siming. Room, let her stay here first, and wait until tomorrow to make other arrangements.
