Chapter 87 What evil plan is Ye Chi going to offer again? !
For a moment, the atmosphere became extremely depressing.
Although the clans were unwilling, they could only swallow their anger and dared not say anything more.
Afterwards, the First Emperor majestically glanced at the clan representatives present and immediately issued an order: "From today on, all clan sons can join the army and serve the court to show the bravery of our Great Qin sons!"
"At the same time, in order to allow the clans to support their children in their training and growth, I require each clan to contribute money, people, and strength, and jointly contribute to the Qin Empire!"
The voice of the First Emperor was sonorous and powerful, echoing in the court and shocking the clans!
Although they were extremely reluctant, they had to agree under the majesty of the First Emperor!
"We obey your order." The clan representatives answered sparsely, and their voices were not uniform at all. It was obvious that they were not convinced.
However, the First Emperor disagreed.
He smiled slightly and looked at the clan representatives with deep eyes, as if he had seen through their thoughts.
He knew that this time he had truly subdued the clans and forced them to submit to the situation.
"Good!" The First Emperor nodded with satisfaction. "I believe that under the sharp edge of the Qin cavalry, the mob of Baiyue will be pacified in one fell swoop! And the children of your clan will also grow into pillars of the country through experience!"
"I am looking forward to your performance!!"
After saying this, the First Emperor turned and left, leaving the clan representatives with stunned looks on their faces.
They looked at each other in silence, their hearts filled with helplessness and unwillingness.
But they also knew that the First Emperor was determined and any opposition or obstruction would be futile.
From now on, they must fully support their children in their military training, no, no mistake!!!
After returning to the Xianyang Palace, Emperor Qin Shihuang dismissed his ministers and returned to the Zhangtai Palace alone.
He was overjoyed and particularly happy about what happened today!
He paced back and forth excitedly in the palace, his face filled with joy, as if the whole world was in his hands.
"I'm a little hungry!" Emperor Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng called out, and the eunuchs immediately got busy, carefully presenting the imperial meal.
Delicious dishes were served one after another, dazzling to the eyes and filling with fragrance.
The exquisite porcelain plates are filled with delicious dishes that are mouth-watering!
Ying Zheng sat upright on the imperial couch. He stretched out his chopsticks, gently picked up a piece of tender venison, and put it into his mouth to savor it carefully.
It melts in your mouth and leaves you with an endless aftertaste!
This made him nod with satisfaction, a look of joy on his face!
As he tasted each dish, Ying Zheng felt more and more happy!
The eunuchs stood aside, serving with bated breath and concentration, not daring to be negligent or neglectful in the slightest!
Seeing His Majesty eating with gusto, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief!
Your Majesty, today... I don't know why, but after returning from the Lishan camp, you seem to be in a very good mood?
During the meal break, Ying Zheng also began to think about his future plans!
He wanted to use the power of the clan to pacify the Baiyue and capture those unruly tribal leaders to Xianyang to demonstrate the majesty of the Qin Dynasty.
Moreover, with cannons, muskets and other magical tools, he believed that he could not only conquer the Baiyue and the Xiongnu, but also expand the territory and let the flag of the Qin fly over a wider land.
What are the Baiyue and the Xiongnu?
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel excited and full of passion! !
He suddenly remembered the countries in the world map that Ye Chi had mentioned before, as well as the idea of overseas colonization! !
These ideas coincided with his ambitions, making him more determined to achieve great unification!
Ying Zheng tilted his head slightly and said solemnly to the eunuch beside him: "Convey my order immediately and summon Ye Chi to the palace as soon as possible. I have something important to discuss with him! This matter is urgent and there must be no mistakes!"
Upon hearing this, the eunuch hurriedly bowed and accepted the order, and walked out quickly, not daring to slack off in the slightest. Ying Zheng smiled, he believed that with Ye Chi's assistance, the Great Qin would be able to create a brand new era, allowing all people in the world to bathe in the moonlight of the Great Qin!
……
Soon, Ye Chi stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, I greet you!"
Ying Zheng's eyes were bright, with a bit of satisfaction and pride, he nodded slightly and said: "Ye Qing, you are here, please stand up without formalities."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the eunuchs immediately brought out the fragrant wine and meat!
Ying Zheng pointed at the table full of delicacies and said proudly: "Ye Qing, you gave me a big surprise today! This is the wine and meat I prepared especially for you, please have a taste!"
Ye Chi was confused and puzzled, but when he saw that it was a gift from Ying Zheng, he bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the wine and meat."
He took the wine and meat carefully, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
After tasting it, I felt that the wine was mellow and had a long aftertaste, and the meat was tender and juicy, and extremely delicious.
He could not help but bow again and praised: "Your Majesty, the wine and meat you gave me are truly delicious. I am grateful to you!"
Seeing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
He pointed at the wine and meat and said to Ye Chi: "Ye Qing, I am in a very good mood today. This wine is a fine wine that I have treasured for many years, and this meat is also a carefully selected delicacy! Please enjoy it to your heart's content, no need to be polite!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chi felt even more grateful. After thanking the master again, he began to savor the wine and meat carefully.
Seeing that Ye Chi was satisfied with his meal, Ying Zheng asked, "Mr. Ye, I intend to conquer the Baiyue people and realize the great cause of overseas colonization. What do you think?"
There was a hint of expectation and confidence in his tone.
Upon hearing this, Ye Chi put down his chopsticks, stood up and saluted, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, it may be possible to try to deal with Baiyue, but if you want to colonize other regions, I am afraid that the current strength of our Great Qin is far from enough!"
Ying Zheng frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Oh? I have cannons, muskets and other magical weapons in my hands, why is it not enough?!"
Ye Chi pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the evils of the wealthy families are a major concern for our Great Qin. They monopolize wealth, land and population, causing our Great Qin's finances to be empty and people's livelihood to wither."
"If we don't eradicate it first, it will be difficult for the country to fully expand abroad!"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng remained silent. Ye Chi continued, "Besides, our Great Qin currently lacks the large ships and corresponding technology required for navigation."
"If you want to build a strong navy and large ships that can sail the ocean, the money, manpower, and material resources required are by no means something that can be accumulated overnight!"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng fell into deep thought.
He knew that what Ye Chi said was true. These problems were indeed the difficulties that Daqin was currently facing.
Just as he was lost in deep thought, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Ye Chi's burning gaze, with a smart light flashing in his eyes.
Ying Zheng's heart was moved, and he thought to himself: "What evil plan is Ye Chi going to offer again?!"
However, for the future of the Qin Dynasty, Ying Zheng would not hesitate even if it was a vicious plan! !
He immediately asked, "Ye Qing, do you have any good ideas to offer me?"
There was a hint of anticipation in his voice.
