Chapter 197
"My dear friends, what do you think we should do now?" Qin Shi Huang looked at Xiao Hong and others and asked.

"Your Majesty, I believe that since the demise of the Jizi Dynasty is a certainty, the most important thing now is to withdraw the Qin army sent there, and at the same time let the Anbei Governor's Mansion negotiate with the Chu State to see what their next move is. Why?" Meng Yi bowed and said.

"Your Majesty, I have a doubt." Xiao Hong bowed and said.

"Mr. Wu An, if you have any doubts, it's okay to say it."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, before Mao Huo went to sea, I told him that he would bring the bad prince back. Now that Chu State and Chen State are attacking the Jizi Dynasty at the same time, and Mao Huo only has five hundred Qin troops in his hands, I am worried that if he Try to protect the prince, Chu and Chen may attack them." In fact, Xiao Hong did not expect that Chu and Chen would send troops to attack the Jizi Dynasty so soon.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, I'm afraid that Mao Huo and the others will be in danger. According to our current information, this new Chu State must be related to the remnants of Chu State, and our two countries are now feuding, even now The land of Wuzhong is also the most unstable place. Once Mao Huo and the others try their best to ensure Zizhun, Chen Kingdom will not dare to take action because of our Great Qin's strength, but Chu Kingdom will not be sure," Li Si said with a bow.

Qin Shihuang pondered for a while, and said: "How high do you think the possibility is that Chu State will attack our Great Qin army?"

"I think the possibility is extremely high, and once the two sides fight, the Chu State will definitely attack and kill with all their strength, trying to kill them with one blow." Meng Yi expressed his opinion.

"The ministers and others seconded the proposal." The others also agreed with Meng Yi's view.

"come"

"His Majesty"

A servant bowed and walked over.

"Pass down the decree, order Anbei Duhu Mansion, Fuyu State Chen Bing to the border of Chu State, order Yichang Hou Renxiao to lead [-] troops to Liaodong County to wait for my order, and then order the Great Qin Navy to make full preparations in case of accidents." Qin Shihuang He issued three orders in a row, ready to attack Chu State at any time.

"Follow the order" the servant wrote the imperial decree, and after presenting it to Qin Shihuang for a review, it was stamped with a jade seal and sent to various places.

"It's been a long time since I went to the academy. Everything in Wu'anjun Academy is still normal." After finishing the business, everyone began to chat.

"Everything in the academy is normal. I plan to hold a sports meeting in the academy in 30 days. At that time, the students will invite their families to visit. I wonder if His Majesty will give you a speech at the opening ceremony of the sports meeting."

Xiao Hong originally didn't intend to ask Qin Shihuang to give a speech, but since Qin Shihuang asked, he pushed the matter forward.

"That's fine with the speech." Qin Shihuang shook his head and said, "But I'm very interested in this sports meeting. I'll come and see it when the time comes. I'll leave the speech to Mr. Wu'an."

Qin Shihuang was not interested in giving speeches, and found it very troublesome.

"In that case, I will deliver the speech on behalf of His Majesty. Before the opening ceremony, I will come to invite His Majesty." Xiao Hong cupped his hands.

"Then I will wait for Lord Wu An's invitation," Qin Shihuang said with a smile.

Everyone chatted with Qin Shihuang for a while before leaving, and the navy led by Xu Fu also returned, and General Zhong Lichang returned with him. They escorted gold, silver and various seeds to Xianyang.

"Your Majesty" Wang Chen stood at the entrance of the palace. When he saw Xiao Hong coming out, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Wang Chen? Why did you come here?" Xiao Hong looked at Wang Chen suspiciously.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Xu Fu and General Zhong have already returned to Xianyang, and we will send someone to inform you," Wang Chen said with a bow.

"Oh, where are they now?" Xiao Hong asked happily.

"Reporting to your Majesty, they are waiting in a pavilion ten miles away from Xianyang City," Wang Chen said with a bow.

After all, Xu Fu and the others were escorting a large amount of gold and silver, so they transferred some navy soldiers to accompany them. Now that they come to Xianyang, they must first inform His Majesty.

If you dare to lead troops close to Xianyang without notification, no matter how good your reasons are, you will be sentenced to death, and all soldiers who go forward will be killed.

"Okay, everyone, you go to the academy first. I have other things to go out of the city. By the way, according to Shen Kuo's report, there are still many officials and some powerful people in Xianyang who have not deposited their money in the bank. Who are they? It’s not clear, but you should all know that the bank was established by His Majesty’s decree, I don’t want it to be too ugly, so you can just help me.” Xiao Hong took out the Xuanyan Frost Sword and looked at it. Li Si and others said.

"Mr. Wu An, what are you talking about here? We all know the importance of the Great Qin Central Bank. Those dignitaries and officials who don't want to deposit money in the bank don't need Mr. Wu An to bother." Li Si bowed and said.

They also know that these powerful and officials who are unwilling to deposit money in the bank are members of their faction, the main reason is that they did not deposit the money in the bank.

His Majesty also said before that for dignitaries and officials, saving money is not a matter of reluctance, so they intend to take advantage of this loophole and not deposit money in the bank. Everyone knows that after depositing money in the bank, their lifeblood will be taken by Mr. Wu An. No one likes the feeling of being in control.

But now Mr. Wu An has made it clear that if they don't deposit the money in the bank, they will not give Mr. Wu An any face. Once Mr. Wu An is angered, the consequences will be very serious.

"Okay, since everyone has said so, I will give them a few more days to say goodbye." Xiao Hong took off with his sword and flew out of Xianyang City.

"Let's go, let's go save money." Li Si and others got on their carriages dejectedly, and returned home to inform people in their faction to go to the bank to deposit money.

It only took Xiao Hong 10 minutes to see Xu Fu and Zhong Lizhang in the pavilion.

"See you, Your Majesty." Xu Fu and Zhong Li saw Xiao Hong coming from the sky and hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"General Zhong, long time no see. How is life in the Beihai Colony?" Xiao Hong walked into the pavilion and sat down.

"Your Majesty, don't tell me. In fact, the life in Beihai Colony is not bad, but the food is not delicious. The food cooked by the army cooks is too unpalatable." Zhong Lizhang is quite satisfied with the life in Beihai Colony, but eating is a headache. .

Although the Kingdom of Lordaeron had royal chefs, they had invaded the other country's territory after all, and they did not dare to use these royal chefs, Zhong Lizhang.

"Are the original people of the Kingdom of Lordaeron safe?" After Zhong Lichang was replaced this time, Da Qin only had 5 troops stationed in the Beihai Colony.

5 people is a lot, but for the four islands of Beihai, 5 people are not enough. At present, the headquarters of Beihai Colony has 5000 people stationed on Beihai Island, and the remaining [-] people are divided into other branches. on the three islands.

"They were still very stable, except for the rebellion that broke out in some areas at the beginning. After they were suppressed forcefully, they became completely stable," Zhong Lichang recalled.

"Okay, as long as it's safe," Xiao Hong nodded and said, "How much gold and silver did you bring back this time?"

"Report to Your Majesty, this time I brought back 5 taels of gold and 50 taels of silver, and a lot of seeds." Xu Fu brought Xiao Hong to the carriage and said.

"Good job." Xiao Hong patted Xu Fu on the shoulder, and said, "These gold and silver are sent directly to the Central Bank of Daqin, and as for the seeds, they can all be handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs."

"Daqin Central Bank?" Xu Fu and Zhong Lichang looked at each other, not knowing why.

"You guys will know this when you enter the city. I have other things to do, so let's go first." Xiao Hong stood up with his sword.

"Farewell to Mr. Wu'an" Xu Fu and Zhong Lizhang hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Seeing Mr. Wu An going away, Zhong Lichang got up and sighed: "Mr. Wu An is still doing things like this vigorously and resolutely."
