I open a restaurant in Daqin

Chapter 199 Sharpening Stone

In Wuling County, Qin Yong and others set off.

And not long after they set off, a superstition flew out of Wuling County through a specially trained falcon and sent to Xianyang.

At the same time, in Pingyuan County, a carrier pigeon flew out and headed straight for Xianyang.

"My lord, Xuan Wenjun set off from Wuling County with the caravan!"

In the Zhangtai Palace, at noon, just as Ying Zheng had finished his lunch, Zhao Gao came back in a hurry and handed over his hands to report.

Ying Zheng sat behind the table, reviewing the memorial in his hand.

Today, Daqin's memorials are no longer written on bamboo slips as they used to be, but are written in special folds made of rice paper.

Ying Zheng opened the booklet and was watching the review. Hearing this, he said without raising his head, "Mr. Pingyuan, did you not go to see Mr. Xuanwen after all?"

Zhao Gao cupped his hands and replied, "Yes, Mr. Pingyuan didn't intend to see Mr. Xuanwen at all. Mr. Xuanwen seemed to have noticed it too, so he didn't wait any longer and left on his own!"

"Hmph, it seems that the widow's uncle has quite a temper!"

Ying Zheng sneered, put down the notebook, picked up a pen to write a few words on it, folded it up and put it aside, picked up another notebook from the side, and continued to read.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Lord Xuanwen is not feeling well about this matter. Now, the business tax of my Daqin has been decided, and the Chamber of Commerce of Lord Xuanwen has also been established. Let's not talk about other countries for the time being. However, within the territory of Daqin, there are still The gangsters are rampant, which is unjustifiable in itself!"

"Of course, that's all. Now Mr. Xuan Wen knows that these so-called gangsters are all behind-the-scenes forces of the lords, and these lords are obviously unwilling to cooperate. King, tell me, they don't understand This will add trouble to Xuan Wenjun!"

Zhao Gao shook his head and smiled wryly.

"you are wrong!"

Ying Zheng said coldly without looking up.

Zhao Gao was taken aback for a moment, puzzled and asked, "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Ying Zheng said: "They are not making trouble for Xuan Wenjun, they are making trouble for the widow!"

As he said that, Yingzheng threw the pocketbook on the table and said coldly, "It's been a hundred years, when has there been a real gangster in my Great Qin?"

"The Qin kings of all dynasties knew that although the feudal lords of these places have thousands of miles of land, they have no lucrative water. If they want to fish it, let them fish it. Anyway, sooner or later they have to return it to the national treasury. But the widow is different. The widow has already clearly stopped this matter. , who will take the widow's words to heart?"

"Now, my Great Qin has even made a big plan. Such an action is a matter of undermining my Great Qin's national policy. These people don't know how to restrain themselves, and they seize the opportunity of the gathering of businessmen from various countries to amass money wantonly. It's simply too deceitful!"

"Since everyone feels that they don't have enough oil and water, well, in another day, the widow will take back their fiefs piece by piece, and then all will be distributed to the widow to bring them to Xianyang, so that the widow can take care of them!"

While speaking, Ying Zheng's eyes were sharp, as if there were swords and swords flickering in them.

Zhao Gao's whole body trembled, and his expression suddenly changed. It could be seen that at this moment, the king had already aroused extreme anger.

Others don't know, but he does.

On the night Xuan Wenjun was robbed, Iron Eagle Swordsman reported the matter as quickly as possible.

When Zhao Gao received the secret letter, it was early morning Choushi. Although Ying Zheng worked day and night on state affairs, Choushi had already rested. Zhao Gao couldn't bear to be disturbed, so he didn't report it at that time.

Early the next morning, Zhao Gao reported it immediately, but was scolded by Ying Zheng.

At that time, this incident made Ying Zheng sweat a lot.

Here Xuan Wenjun deliberately went out for him, and even worked for him, but on the way, he was robbed by his uncle's men and almost killed.

This is a good luck, if something happened, how would Ying Zheng explain to Mr. Gongsun?And how can he stand up to Qin Yong's good intentions?
For Qin Yong, in the eyes of Ying Zheng, he is not only the descendant of Mr. Gongsun, but also his half brother.But because he was still too young, almost ten years younger than himself.Although he is very resourceful, in Ying Zheng's eyes, he is too naive. Most of the time, he is treated like a child.

The reason why Yingzheng was angry at that time was that Zhao Gao did not inform him of such a major event at the time.

At the same time, he was also angry with Mr. Pingyuan for what he did.

Since then, he immediately sent people to monitor all the actions of Mr. Pingyuan and Qin Yong.

Without anyone noticing, the battle between Qin Yong and Mr. Yuan was already under Ying Zheng's control.

At this moment, facing Ying Zheng's anger again, Zhao Gao knew that perhaps life for the clan would be difficult again.

Although Ying Zheng seems to be speaking out of anger now, but one day, he really dares to take back everyone's fiefdom.

"Your Majesty, do you want your servants to beat and beat Lord Pingyuan?"

Suddenly, Zhao Gao hesitated.

"No need!"

Ying Zheng raised his hand to stop him, and said, "It's good to let Xuan Wenjun take some anger. This Xuan Wenjun is very resourceful, but he is too young and has too little experience. If things go on like this, even if the widows promote him in the future, he will be promoted in the world. You have to run into a wall in front of you. If you don't let him go, if you can, it's best to give him the full power to handle this matter!"

"If he can really deal with those lords, then there will be no one in the court who can do anything to him. At that time, the widows will cultivate more!"

Zhao Gao was startled when he heard this.

Good guy, the king is really generous.With this thought, he actually planned to use the feudal lords from all over Qin as a whetstone to hone Lord Xuan Wen.

At this moment, Zhao Gao didn't know whether to congratulate Xuan Wenjun or feel sad for Xuan Wenjun.

The feudal lords of these places, the Qin kings of all dynasties have nothing to do with them, including Yingzheng.

I remember that when Zheng Guo opened the canal, he passed by one of the lord's fiefdoms. When the lord heard that he was going to use his fiefdom, he stopped doing it immediately.

In the end, it was useless even for Ying Zheng to step in. Tell him that the opening of the river and canal would surely bring about two days of dredging to his fief.

But if this bypasses his fiefdom, the canal project will have to be deepened for two or three months.

In the end, there was really no other way, and Ying Zheng could only set aside a piece of fertile land from his own fief and give it to the fief owner to settle the matter.

To put it bluntly, Yingzheng is the king of the entire Qin State, but he is often useless in the fiefdoms of feudal lords everywhere.In the territories of those lords, the lord is the real king, and no one can deal with it.

Now, this difficult bone has been handed over to Xuan Wenjun. This is a kind of value and a kind of cruel polishing.

Qin Yong himself didn't know about this. After leaving Wuling County, he traveled day and night, but the journey of the caravan was slow. Originally, he went from Xianyang to Liyang, and he was rushing, but after two days, he walked for another three days. Just arrived outside the city of Liyang.
