Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

The next day, early morning.

After many days, the Qin State held another great dynasty meeting.

Today's meeting was attended by many officials. In addition to the generals guarding the borders and local officials from various counties, all the remaining officials responsible for the central agencies arrived early. Even the Ying clan sent nobles.

Mo Jun was wearing a formal suit and was sitting alone in a carriage outside Xianyang Palace. He picked up a fried dough stick with chopsticks in one hand and a porcelain bowl filled with soy milk in the other hand, enjoying breakfast.

Today's court meeting will be held at almost nine o'clock, and Mo Jun has not gotten up so early for a long time.

This happened suddenly.

Inexplicably, Mo Jun felt like he had traveled back to modern times to attend morning classes.

Da, da~~

A carriage stopped next to Lord Mo. After the curtains were opened, the face revealed in the carriage was none other than Changping Lord Xiong Qi.

As soon as Changping Jun opened the curtain, he saw Mo Jun, and his expression suddenly froze. Apparently, he didn't expect that he would be so 'unlucky' today and see this disgusting face so early in the morning.

But then Mr. Changping seemed to think of something again, and his face regained its spring-like look.

"Shengping-kun, I haven't seen you for a few days. How are you doing?"

Mr. Mo didn't expect that Mr. Changping would take the initiative to say hello. After all, in Mr. Mo's impression, although Xiong Qi was a bit ambitious, he was definitely not big.

Based on their current positions, the superficial etiquette in public situations may still need to be maintained, but in private meetings like this, if the other party does not spit directly into his soy milk bowl, it can be regarded as good quality.

So this greeting caught Mo Jun off guard. In a hurry, he didn't pay attention and almost spit out everything he just drank in his mouth.

"Uh-huh~~ It's okay! It tastes delicious and your body feels better."

Mo Jun responded vaguely.

As soon as Mo Jun finished speaking, Xiong Qi, who was opposite him, looked at the few extra bits of white liquid on his sleeves, and his face suddenly darkened.

But aristocrats are aristocrats after all, and their qualities are far beyond what ordinary people like Mo Jun can compare with. They are very good at etiquette, and even if they are sprayed all over, they still maintain a polite 'smile'.

"Haha, being young is indeed good! I hope Shengping-kun can maintain this good mood."

After leaving these words, Xiong Qi didn't seem to want to continue to maintain this kind of hypocritical communication, and directly pulled down the car curtain. But a second before the car curtain closed, Mo Jun clearly saw the smile on the other person's face, and with an astonishing expression The speed disappears.

Mo Jun still maintained a smile on his face.

Xiong Qi was obviously in a good mood today, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the initiative to greet Mo Jun just now, but he just didn't know how long this 'good mood' could last.

······

A quarter of an hour later.

The gate of Xianyang Palace opened, and many Qin ministers got off their carriages one after another and entered Xianyang Palace on foot.

"I will see you, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, please excuse me."

In Xianyang Palace, officials from the civil and military factions stood on both sides, with slightly fewer people on the military general side, because most of the generals with military power in the entire Qin State have now been sent to the border by Ying Zheng.

On the civil servant side, Chang Pingjun still ranks first, but the position in the front row, representing the 'Three Lords', is still vacant.

But soon, the entire vacancy will be filled.

At the beginning of the Great Court Meeting, everything went on very calmly. It was not much different from when some ministers of Qin State reported to Ying Zheng in Zhangtai Palace in the past.

After some of the early procedures were completed, Ying Zheng got down to business.

"...A month ago, General Wang Jian of the Great Qin State led his troops to conquer South Korea. Now one of the seven countries, South Korea, has been returned to the Great Qin Dynasty. Now our Qin State has strong soldiers and horses, and the army is unstoppable. It is a great opportunity for me to show my grand ambitions. opportunity."

"Therefore, I intend to take charge of the army and declare war on Zhao and Wei at the same time. Do you have any advice?"

As soon as Ying Zheng said these words, all the ministers below were immediately 'shocked' and started talking one after another.

"Your Majesty, you can't do that!"

"Our country, the Qin Dynasty, is now in a state of peace and prosperity, and it is soaring to the sky. Even if the king wants to express his ambition at this time, he should do it slowly and must not get himself into danger."

"What Mr. Sun said is reasonable. Your Majesty, please think twice."

······

As expected, as soon as Ying Zheng expressed his idea of ​​‘conquering the emperor personally’, all the ministers stood up and spoke to dissuade him.

Are these ministers really trying to stop this?

No.

They are just showing their attitude.

Ying Zheng had already raised the issue of the 'imperial conquest' many days ago, and in that 'small court meeting', the matter had been finalized.

Now Na was brought up again in the court meeting. The real purpose was to declare, not to actually discuss with the ministers.

Everyone present knew this.

But they still have to stand up, because this is government affairs. If they don't stand up today, what if something unexpected happens when Ying Zheng is really on his way to "conquer personally".

Then what happens today can easily be used by others and become an 'excuse' in the future.

Who can survive in the court is not a human spirit? In the time when he just traveled through time, if it weren't for Mo Jun's plug-in and relying on the advantage of time traveling, he would have invested in Ying Zheng before he knew it.

Just relying on his so-called IQ and scheming, even if he was given twenty years, he might not be able to occupy a place in this court.

Of course.

Things are different now.

People will learn and grow. After fighting these old foxes for so long, coupled with the talent brought by Mo Jun's [Adventurer's Soul] every day, now in the big dye vat of the court, he is definitely worthy of being... The yellowest among them... ah no, it should be the blackest dye among them.

"...I have decided to leave."

Xianyang Palace was in a commotion, and the ministers below were noisy. But in the end, with Ying Zheng's words, the originally noisy palace immediately became silent.

Obviously, even the noise just now was all a show performed by these ministers.

Just talking about acting skills.

The so-called ‘Oscar statuettes’ of later generations are not worth mentioning in front of these old foxes.

Small meetings are held for big things.

Hold a meeting on trivial matters.

For the imperial court, the really important matters had been decided long before the meeting. The so-called meeting was not really for people to discuss, but just for people to bear witness.

The fact that things have developed to this point means that the process of the early stage of the meeting has officially ended, and it is time to enter the second half of the process.

No need for anyone to remind you.

I saw Chang Wenjun, who was not far behind Mr. Mo, stepped forward and came to the middle of the court hall. He bowed and saluted and said: "Since the king has made up his mind, I don't know what matters in the court will be when the king is 'conquering in person'." Who should I leave it to?"
