"Father (Grandpa)."

Cai E's son and grandson are all here.

Yesterday, when the people sent by Dongfang Yu found this large family, they said that King Qin invited several people to meet someone in the dungeon.

result! The whole family looked shocked and extremely panicked. The Cai family has become much more honest since that incident. Not to mention offending the King of Qin.

But today! They finally understood King Qin’s intention, it turned out! Let them see that person, that is their (father) grandfather!

"oops!"

At this moment! Cai E's tears finally couldn't help but started to flow down.

"Why are you here?"

It feels so good to be able to see my family again.

"Quick, open the cell!" Dongfang Yu motioned to the jailer to open the cell.

"promise!"

If someone else saw such a touching thing through a prison door, the style of the painting would definitely change.

The four of them hugged each other, and Cai E patted the backs of the three of them, feeling deeply moved.

Dongfang Yu has also experienced this feeling of parting.

"It's the king...it's the king who found our Cai family. However, the rest of the Cai family have died, and only ours is still alive." Cai Deng said, his tone revealing that he was looking towards Dongfang Yu's gratitude.

"Your Majesty is so kind and kind. You have helped me find my family. I can't repay you even if I die?" Cai E also knelt down and worshiped.

Although Cai E is almost fifty years old, his legs and feet are still very nimble. Dongfang Yu was not interested and went to pull Cai E to stand up.

"In this case, you are not even afraid of death, why not assist Yu Gu! To manage the affairs of Qin for Gu, our Qin State needs talents like Mr. Cai." If you praise, it doesn't cost money anyway, Dongfang Yu only needs to general Cai E praised him to heaven, so naturally he was willing to stay with him.

"Cai E is willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses!"

Not only for himself, but also for the Cai family to return to the peak of the family.

"In this case, I will temporarily make you a farmer. What do you think?" Dongfang Yu said.

He is also known as Da Si Nong when he is in charge of Qian Valley. The equivalent of today's Finance Minister. Da Sinong was an official in the Han Dynasty who managed the country's finances.

Under the jurisdiction of Da Sinong were the five ministers of Taicang, Junshu, Pingzhun, Dunei, and Jitian, who were respectively in charge of grain storage, material supply, price adjustment, treasury cashier, and the emperor's personal plowing of the fields. In addition, the salt and iron monopoly business is also under the supervision of Da Sinong. Similar official positions include Fengchang, in charge of ancestral temple rituals, high status, etc.

after all! Although Cai E is talented, he is old after all.

"Your Majesty, thank you for the reward." Si Nong was one of the Nine Qings. For Cai E, the official position of Si Nong in the Qin Dynasty was already a kind of grace to him.

"Okay, in that case! I will send someone to send your family to Beiliang and temporarily resettle the family business." Dongfang Yu said.

"Cai Deng, your talent is no worse than your father's. Now! Gu will give you a chance to be Gu's navy instructor and navy general, and train the Jingzhou Navy according to the Qin Navy's military system. Can you?"

ah!

Cai Deng was slightly startled, but he quickly reacted and bowed and said, "Cai Deng is willing to go through fire and water for the king, and I will do so without hesitation."

"Um!"

Dongfang Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Then! He also took Cai Wen and Cai Wu under his command. Let Cai Wen worship Xu Meng as his teacher and learn the art of war. After returning to Beiliang, let him go to Tianping to learn how to govern the country.

This boy is very talented, and while he is still young, he can cultivate talents for the next generation of princes.

For the sake of this little guy Dongfang Jun, and for the eternal survival of the Qin Kingdom, Dongfang Yu has worked very hard, right?

At this time, the state of Chu.

But in the Qin State, an army of 230,000 soldiers marched across the state border, and people in the court were panicked.

All the Jiangdong civil servants seemed to be frightened out of their wits. after all! The Qin State, which has no defeat, has sufficient deterrence. Everyone knew that the next step for King Qin, who had captured Chen State, would definitely be to point his troops at Chu State.

The Grand Governor Xiao Huangqi also returned to Jinling. He actually rushed eight hundred miles from the front line and returned to Jinling together.

He originally wanted to return to Jinling as soon as possible, but on the way, he hoarded all the soldiers and horses from Yuezhou to the border of Yuezhou.

A total of two hundred thousand, including the navy, were dismantled.

The main hall of the King of Chu.

Generals Xiao Shan, Fang Shouke, Luo Qian, Zheng Yu, Cong Yuan, Wen Xiang and other ministers all gathered in the imperial hall under the order of the King of Chu.

Xiao Huangqi, who had just returned to Jinling, had no time to rest, so he asked Dongfang Yin to recall him directly to the court.

Outside the main hall, Xiao Huangqi was at the front. Chen Xing, Deng Zhong, Zhou Xi, Lu Jie and other generals walked into the main hall step by step with Xiao Huangqi as the center.

Everyone's eyes were gradually attracted when Grand Governor Xiao Huangqi entered.

"The Grand Governor is here! The Grand Governor is finally here!"

As soon as Xiao Huangqi arrived in the main hall, everyone seemed to have found a backbone immediately.

"Greetings to my king, who may live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!"

All the ministers bowed and paid their respects.

Dongfang Chang's eyes have long been on Xiao Huangqi, but! This time, there was no smile on Xiao Huangqi's face, but a straight face.

"The Governor is finally back!"

"I don't know! Where has the Grand Governor been in the past few days? King Qin's army has been deployed to the border of Yue State. How can the Grand Governor still be leisurely and elegant, taking a walk in Yuezhou?" Dongfang Yin said sharply.

The reason why the Qin State was so quick to cross the border was because Xiao Huangqi killed Qin Wang's general Lan Tian. Jingzhou was in the hands of the King of Qin, and only a few days after it was pacified, the King of Qin's army crossed the border.

Xiao Huang said curiously: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

"The King of Qin's army has already arrived at the border, and I already know it. I have mobilized all the soldiers from Yuezhou to the border, and led them by Zhou Zhaojian to prevent the Qin army from launching a large-scale attack."

"Therefore! I returned to Jinling a day or two late and reported the situation to the king."

Dongfang Yin calmed down a little and said loudly: "I want to ask you, why did you kill Lan Tian, ​​the Qin army? If you didn't kill him, why did the Qin army come so fast?"

Xiao Huangqi continued: "Your Majesty, the State of Qin has defeated the State of Chen and captured King Chen. It will be a matter of time before we go south in large numbers to fight the State of Chu. It is better to fight early than to fight late."

"Killing him Lan Tian will cut off the shoulders and arms of the King of Qin. Why not? Moreover! I have already thought of a strategy to defend against the enemy. Why should I be afraid of the Qin army?"

Xiao Huangqi's words instantly made Dongfang Yin feel relieved.

"In that case! The Governor and all the generals, please forgive me without paying any courtesy!" Dongfang Yin said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Then! The generals just stood to one side.
