Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 444: Ying Zheng's decision! The morning court is filled with a depressing atmosphere!
"kill!"

When Ying Zheng heard Zhang Han's words, he said the word "kill".

Zhang Han was stunned when he heard the Qin Shi Huang's cold words. He had not heard His Majesty speak in such a tone for some time.

Zhang Han knew that the officials who did bad things in these cities had made His Majesty very angry.

"I want to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. Killing these people will let other officials know what to do and what not to do."

Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han and continued to express his thoughts.

Zhang Han agreed with the Emperor's words and said in deep thought: "Your Majesty!"

"How should we deal with the ministers in the court who support these officials who do bad things?"

Zhang Han looked at the First Emperor and asked the ministers who supported him in the court.

"Humph!"

When Ying Zheng heard Zhang Han's words, a hint of coldness appeared on his face, and he said, "Since I want to severely punish these officials."

"Are you not afraid of further punishment for these ministers who support officials who do bad things?"

"Which minister supports this will be severely punished."

"And by the way, let the ministers in the court know what they should and shouldn't do."

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, his expression became calm.

Zhang Han, who was standing aside, had a cold sweat on the back of his neck ever since His Majesty had read the memorial sent by the guards of the Black Ice Terrace.

Zhang Han sensed a murderous intent from His Majesty.

Such murderous intent made Zhang Han feel a little scared.

Tomorrow's morning court will definitely be a morning court where big things will happen.

The next day!

Outside the Qilin Palace in Xianyang City!
The ministers stood outside the hall, waiting to enter the Qilin Hall.

Fusu stood in front of the ministers with a calm expression.

Behind Fusu were important ministers such as Li Si, Meng Yi, and Wang Ben. The old general Wang Jian was allowed by His Majesty not to attend court.

Some ministers gathered together and chatted with each other in low voices.

Some were discussing state affairs, and some were discussing books.

Some ministers were discussing some trivial matters in the government.

"Hundred officials enter the palace!"

The eunuch summoned everyone to walk out of the Qilin Hall and shouted loudly at everyone.

Fusu took the lead and walked into the Qilin Hall. Meng Yi Wang Ben Li Si and others followed Fusu's steps and entered the Qilin Hall.

The other ministers took steps and walked into the Qilin Hall.

Everyone entered the Qilin Hall and knelt down in their respective positions.

"Your Majesty is here!"

As soon as the ministers sat down, they heard the voice of the eunuch summoning them.

The First Emperor was seen wearing a black dragon robe with the Emperor's Sword on his waist. He walked into the Qilin Hall with a serious expression and a domineering step.

Ying Zheng walked to the dragon throne and sat down, looking at everyone in the Qilin Hall.

"See Your Majesty!"

"Everyone loves you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

When everyone heard what the First Emperor said, they stood up and sat back in their seats.

Ying Zheng had a calm expression and glanced at everyone in the Qilin Hall. When he saw Fusu, he paused slightly.

Li Si, who was standing behind Fusu, looked at the First Emperor's expression and frowned slightly.

Today, the First Emperor entered the Qilin Hall. Although his expression was calm, Li Si could still see a hint of dissatisfaction beneath his calm expression.

Li Si had assisted the First Emperor for many years, and he knew that His Majesty might be in a bad mood today.

Some experienced ministers frowned like Li Si, and they also felt that His Majesty was in a bad mood today.

The entire Qilin Hall was very quiet, but there was a depressing atmosphere in this quiet environment.

"My dear ministers, what do you want to report today?"

Ying Zheng had a calm expression as he looked at everyone in Qilin Hall and asked questions.

The Qilin Hall was still very quiet, and no minister stepped forward to make a request.

In such a depressing atmosphere, it would be troublesome to come forward and ask for permission now. Naturally, no minister would come forward at this time.

Ying Zheng looked at the quiet Qilin Hall and spoke again: "Since my dear ministers have nothing to report."

"Today, I have something to discuss with you, my dear ministers."

The ministers in Qilin Palace were shocked when they heard what the First Emperor said. Every time His Majesty took the initiative to mention something, it was not a trivial matter.

Some ministers with sharp eyes even had a bad premonition in their hearts.

Sure enough, my guess just now was correct, His Majesty's face did not look good.

What I am going to talk about next will not be a trivial matter.

Ying Zheng looked at the people in Qilin Hall and continued, "Daqin has developed very well in recent times."

"The enemies outside of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu and the Baiyue people, were all driven out of the plains by the armies led by several generals."

"There will be no more crises on the border of Daqin, and no enemies will break through the border."

"As for the enemies within the Great Qin, they have also been eliminated."

"The problems encountered by Daqin were solved one by one under Fusu's proposal."

"I was thinking a few days ago that there are no more threats inside or outside the Qin Dynasty."

"What we need to do next is to make Daqin develop better."

"If we want to develop, it depends on whether the officials of each city are dedicated and working hard."

"A few days ago, I sent guards from the Black Ice Platform to investigate various cities to see if the officials in these cities are doing their best."

"Yesterday, the guards of the Black Ice Terrace gave me the results of the investigation. I looked at the report on the investigation."

"I am still very satisfied. Most officials have done a good job."

"It's just that a few officials did not do what they were supposed to do in their own cities, but instead did a lot of bad things."

"Such actions will make the people hate the Qin Dynasty. I will definitely not let such officials go."

Ying Zheng looked at everyone in the Qilin Palace and mentioned the Black Ice Platform's investigation of various cities.

Everyone in the Qilin Hall was stunned when they heard what the First Emperor said. They did not expect that His Majesty would actually send people to investigate every city.

The most important thing is to conduct a secret investigation; these ministers are completely unaware of the news.

Several ministers had cold sweat on the back of their necks and were very nervous.

Your Majesty just mentioned that most of the investigation results were good, but there were also a few officials who did bad things.

Those ministers do support a few officials. If the officials found out by Your Majesty’s investigation are related to them,

There is a high possibility that they will be implicated.

Ying Zheng looked at everyone in the Qilin Hall, and he remembered the looks of these people in his heart.

Apart from Fusu, the ministers with the calmest expressions were Meng Yi, Wang Ben and Li Si.

There were different changes on the faces of other ministers.

Some ministers looked calm, some looked pale, and some looked angry.

"Zhang Han!"

"promise!"

Zhang Han, who was standing next to the First Emperor, heard the First Emperor calling his name and took a step forward.

He took out the memorial from his sleeve, flipped to the back and looked at the people in Qilin Hall before speaking:

"Tianhe County Magistrate, privately occupied good farmland and embezzled taxes!"

"Fengping County Magistrate."

"."

Zhang Han read out the names of five city officials in one breath, and also listed all the bad things they had done.

Qilin Hall became quiet again, and everyone had different expressions on their faces.

Li Si looked at everyone in the Qilin Hall, and then at the First Emperor.

He now completely understood why His Majesty was dissatisfied when he entered the Qilin Palace today.

It turned out that His Majesty sent people to investigate the city and found out the officials who did bad things.

Your Majesty has mentioned this matter at the morning court today, and this matter will not end so hastily.

Meng Yi and Wang Ben looked at each other and shook their heads slightly. Both of them were members of a military family.

After hearing Zhang Han's words, he felt very dissatisfied with these officials who did bad things.
