This war, starting from the time when the Qin army left the border, lasted about half a year and finally pacified Western Xinjiang.
Not only did it completely eliminate foreign aggression in the Central Plains, but it also established the future territory of China.
One can imagine Xiao Yuan's prestige among the people in the world.
After returning to the palace, he also plunged into the study.
Next, there was another familiar scene. Liu Yuzhi began to pull out roll after roll of bamboo slips from the sleeves of his official uniform.
During the time when Xiao Yuan was on the expedition, some ordinary government affairs were handled by the prime minister, but some particularly important matters required the king's nod.
Facing him, Xiao Yuan was somewhat helpless. He could only calm down, unfold a roll of bamboo slips, listen to his report, and negotiate with him.
The official document presented to the king by the prime minister of a country can be said to be no small matter. Xiao Yuan did not dare to talk about it in detail, and this conversation lasted a whole afternoon.
By the time I finally finished dealing with it, it was almost evening.
Xiao Yuan stood up, stretched out, and said casually: "Xiangguo, let me go for a walk with you."
"Yes." Liu Yuzhi lowered his body respectfully.
Afterwards, the monarch and his ministers began to take a walk casually in the palace.
The majestic Qin Palace has spectacular scenery.
The palace guards on both sides of the avenue stood straight.
During the walk, Xiao Yuan first sighed softly, and then said: "Although Xirong has been pacified, the next thing is actually more troublesome than the war. After all, there are ethnic minorities living in Western Xinjiang, and their customs and cultures are all unique. The difference."
"What the king said is true. It is easy to kill, but difficult to stabilize. The policy of tolerance towards ethnic minorities is also a strategy that our country must adhere to. Only when people's hearts surrender, can the territory be completely stable." Liu Yuzhi said.
"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded: "Based on the integrity of the country's territory, the issue of counties and counties in Western Xinjiang should be the top priority at the moment. I have thought about it over and over again and decided to establish Xining, Qingyuan, and Wuwei counties. What do you think, Prime Minister? ."
Liu Yuzhi thought for a while and said: "From the perspective of the population and urban base of Western Xinjiang, it is best to temporarily establish three counties."
The entire territory of Western Xinjiang is as big as five or six counties. Due to its vast territory, it is sparsely populated. This is why three counties are temporarily established.
Seeing that he had no objection, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and said: "Okay, let's leave this matter to the prime minister. The specific division of counties and townships should be based on actual conditions as much as possible."
"In the next two days, I will see the official document."
"In addition, the horse-producing land in Western Xinjiang should be dealt with as a priority. The policies that our country will implement next are also top priority. How to govern Western Xinjiang and how to govern it will also require a detailed official document."
"Also, regarding the adjustment of national granary reserves, the official document will be sent to the king as soon as possible for my review."
He talked a lot in succession, and Liu Yuzhi looked embarrassed after listening to it.
But before he could speak, Xiao Yuan reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Prime Minister, you know everything about the people's livelihood, taxes, soldiers and horses' money and food in our Great Qin. I don't know these things." You can’t do that.”
After that, he added: "Of course, work is work, but don't be too tired, and be sure to pay attention to your health."
After saying this, Liu Yuzhi could only smile bitterly, bowed his hands and said, "Wei Chen accepts the order."
What is this called? This is called treating others the way they treat themselves. Why do you let this guy always do this?
After talking about the business, Xiao Yuan looked at the sky and said casually: "It's getting late, Prime Minister, why don't you stay and have a drink with me."
"No, no, no, the king has just returned to the capital. How dare you disturb me?" Liu Yuzhi said quickly.
You also know that when you just returned to the capital, your buttocks were not even allowed to sit down because it was so hot.
Xiao Yuan was happy: "In that case, I won't force you and won't give it to you."
"Your Majesty, I have betrayed my humble ministers, and I have to retire." Liu Yuzhi bowed deeply.
"Yes." Xiao Yuan responded, watched him leave, and turned around to leave.
That night, he stayed at Mu Lianying's place.
Before the expedition, Mu Lianying was already pregnant, and now her belly was swollen.
After helping her sit down, Xiao Yuan gently put his ear against her body, listened carefully to the movement, and said sillyly: "The little guy seems to be moving."
Seeing the man she loved looking like this, the child was gradually growing up, and the iceberg beauty's heart was about to melt.
"He's always naughty." She said softly.
"This brat doesn't even know how much he cares for his mother." Xiao Yuan continued to be silly and sat beside her, hugging her and letting her lean gently on his shoulder.
"Did Lianying miss me?"
He began to speak love words.
Although she was full of happiness, Mu Lianying's character did not respond at all.
As a result, Xiao Yuan was unhappy and turned sideways so that she was facing him, with warm eyes.
I had to let her say it today.
Under such circumstances, Mu Lianying's beautiful eyes dodge for a moment, she lowered her head slightly and said softly, 'Hmm'.
"Hehe." Xiao Yuan laughed mischievously, and immediately lost his integrity and leaned over to kiss her lips.
It's a pity that before he could taste the wonderful taste, he was pushed away. Mu Lianying's face turned red and she said, "You're doing this again!"
"This!" Xiao Yuan was speechless for a while, just a kiss and nothing else, really!
He put his arms around her.
She leaned lightly on his shoulder.
The two looked at the bright moon outside the window and whispered love words.
Early the next morning.
Although she was pregnant, Mu Lianying still stood in front of Xiao Yuan, carefully arranging the lapels of his royal clothes for him.
"Okay madam, I'll do it myself." Xiao Yuan held her little hand.
"You are my husband." She said softly, extremely seriously.
Xiao Yuan felt warm in his heart and gently stroked her hair. His women were not only beautiful in appearance, but also had different personalities. They were all well-educated and sensible. What more could a husband ask for.
After they were all dressed, not long after, the palace maid also brought in toiletries and other items.
Xiao Yuan wiped the water stains on his hands with a towel and asked casually: "How is the princess's diet recently? Are you taking good care of her?"
"Back to your Majesty, the imperial hospital has ginseng soup for recuperation. Your Majesty has always been in good health." The palace maid responded respectfully, bowed slightly and lowered her head, placing her hands on her waist and abdomen, which was quite polite.
"Well, you must take good care of the princess." Xiao Yuan nodded.
"yes."
In the early morning, hundreds of civil and military officials, all wearing official uniforms, went to the court meeting hall in twos and threes.
Not long after, Xiao Yuan stepped in.
Wearing black royal robes, a royal crown on his head, nine strings of jade beads on his forehead, and the King of Qin's sword hanging on his waist, he has spent years conquering the world and establishing a kingdom, which naturally gave him the power of a king.
Seeing him, all the ministers knelt down on the ground and shouted in unison: "I will see you, Your Majesty, I will be king for ten thousand years -"
"Everyone is safe."
"Thank you, Your Majesty——"
People shouted in unison again. After getting up, they stood on the left and right of the train.
Then, Ding Rong was the first to stand up.
