The white clouds are lingering, and outside the main hall of the Qin Palace, there is a towering white jade platform. Emperor Qin Yingzheng stood with his sword behind his back, and beside him was Prime Minister Li Si, the current leader of Legalism.

Li Si's trust in Emperor Qin was unparalleled by other ministers. After going to court today, Ying Zheng left Li Si alone. Such treatment is something few Qin Chen can enjoy. But Li Si had this happen every three days.

There were few personal relationships between Emperor Qin and his ministers, even Li Si was no exception. Li Si was a little surprised. In the past, Emperor Qin always stayed in the main hall to discuss state affairs when he stayed. But this time, I really don’t know why Emperor Qin suddenly became interested and insisted on walking out of the palace?

Under the white jade platform, tigers and tigers line up on both sides, standing tall and motionless for decades. These people are all descendants of good families in Guanzhong, and their origins can be traced back to more than ten generations. They are die-hard supporters of the empire and are loyal. With their existence and effectiveness, the empire has the strength and capital to conquer the world. The guards in the Qin Palace were only loyal to Emperor Qin, and even Ying Ziyi could not interfere.

Ying Zheng withdrew his gaze, looked at Li Si beside him, and asked, "How is the situation with the Mo family?"

"Reporting to your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince's 50,000 troops have arrived near the government city." Li Si reported his hand and said honestly.

Ying Ziyi's 50,000 troops can be said to be his private soldiers in a sense, because he recruited both generals and soldiers himself, and even the salaries of these soldiers were paid by Ying Ziyi himself. You know, maintaining an army of about 50,000 people consumes an astronomical amount of wealth. What's more, the soldiers under Ying Ziyi are different from ordinary imperial soldiers. They will not return to the fields during spring planting and autumn harvest, and have been completely separated from agricultural production. As a result, the cost will be even greater. Since the establishment of Ying Ziyi's Yulin Army, many people and forces inside and outside the empire have turned their attention to the Yulin Army Camp in Guanzhong. This group of Yulin troops only train on weekdays. Otherwise, they occasionally go north to the Hu land and start operations with some small tribes of Hu people. To maintain such a huge army, it can be seen how much wealth the Prince of Qin gained after destroying the Yueshi, dominating the Western Regions, and opening the Silk Road.

This is a coveted wealth, and many people within the empire want to get a piece of it. However, the vast land west of Wuchecheng is the territory of Prince Qin. No one is allowed to interfere without Ying Ziyi's nod.

Within the empire, military families such as Wang, Li, Meng, and Xin were more or less involved. The strange thing is that Emperor Qin has always adopted a tacit attitude towards this. This makes Li Si particularly strange.

"Your Majesty, the rebellious Mo family has been surrounded by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's Yu Lin Legion, and they may not be able to escape even if they have wings."

"I recently heard a rumor that a giant from the Mo family has been secretly working for Fusu. Do you know about this?" Emperor Qin's eyes were not on Li Si, but those seemingly understated words had already made Li Si sweat on his back. Again and again.

Everyone knows that Li Si was deeply trusted and honored by Emperor Qin. But who knows the danger behind this honor?

Li Si lowered his head and said calmly: "I have never heard of it. However, His Royal Highness the eldest son is kind, but sometimes his heart is too soft. If he is not careful, it is possible to be deceived by those Jianghu forces with ulterior motives."

Although Li Si did not form a political alliance with Fusu, there was a hint of spying on Emperor Qin in his words.

Li Si must know how important this eldest son is to Emperor Qin's heart.

"Weren't you aware of it for a while?" Emperor Qin said slowly: "If Fusu can tame these Jianghu forces, it might not be a bad thing."

Li Si was shocked. There were too many meanings in these ordinary words. Li Si's heart was agitated by Emperor Qin's words.

"Where is Ying Ziyi now?" Emperor Qin did not continue, but asked about Ying Ziyi's whereabouts.

"I can't find out the whereabouts of His Highness the Crown Prince. Since Anyi, the whole court has lost traces of His Highness the Crown Prince. However, the 50,000 Yulin Army marched to the gate of the city in accordance with the wishes of His Highness the Crown Prince. I want to come. His Royal Highness should also be nearby." As the prince of a country, it doesn't matter if he is not in the imperial capital all year round, and he disappears from time to time. Based on this alone, if Brother Zheng wants to depose the prince, the whole court will not be able to say anything.

"Really?" Brother Zheng said lightly. Not only the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, but also Brother Zheng himself didn't know where Ying Ziyi was?

Li Si raised his head slightly and glanced at Brother Zheng. Looking from the side, Brother Zheng seems to be smiling.

The whole court was deeply dissatisfied with the prince's unethical behavior, and Brother Zheng was also aware of it. Whether they were really for the sake of the empire or had ulterior motives, none of these people dared to intervene in this matter. Because on the surface, Ying Ziyi went to the East China Sea to seek the elixir of immortality for Emperor Qin.

Who can say no? Although everyone is doing such a treasonous thing, using the position of a minister to monitor the emperor, no one can talk about it. Once the unspoken rules are revealed, it will cause an uproar.

"Ignoring the situation in Guandong, how is the situation in Beihu?" Brother Zheng asked.

"Reports from the border, as well as intelligence analysis from my subordinates buried in Beihu. The Xiongnu have gone through the turmoil since the death of the enemy chieftain, and gradually formed a certain stable situation. Although After Touman's death, the power of the Xiongnu gradually shrunk, and the Huns from the East moved westward and conquered many small tribes that were originally loyal to the Xiongnu. However, the Xiongnu themselves did not divide and decline. The three noble surnames within the Xiongnu gradually reached an agreement, maintaining the Xiongnu's power. Stablize."

"The Huyan family, the Lan family, and the Xubu family." Emperor Qin said the noble surnames of these three Xiongnu indifferently, but Li Si lowered his head even lower.

Li Si understood that Emperor Qin had one or even several intelligence systems. Mastering the information from all over the world is the foundation of the king's governance. However, in this world, there are many unruly rivers and lakes forces, as well as barbarians who often invade and harass. In these places, official forces are not free to intervene, nor can they interfere. Therefore, various intelligence forces under Emperor Qin came into being.

"As the world often says, in troubled times, heroes emerge in large numbers. It seems that there is nothing wrong with applying this to these barbarians. Ying Ziyi captured and killed Touman outside Wuchecheng. The Xiongnu did not decline because of this, but these three noble surnames did. It is because of this that they have risen. To a certain extent, the Huns have become more united towards the outside world."

"But it's also temporary," Li Si said. Nanyi and Beihu, now the land of Baiyue has been conquered by the empire, and the Holy Emperor has always been very unhappy with the Beihu who is entrenched near the Great Wall. Emperor Qin's words made Li Si have to be careful. Is this talented and sagacity emperor going to take action against Beihu? "The Xiongnu were originally a tribal alliance. In the hands of Touman, although their internal system has changed to a great extent, without a strong ruler, they will split sooner or later. At present, the three noble surnames within the Xiongnu can The reason for unity is just because there is Donghu in the east, and we, the Qin Dynasty, are in the west and south."

Qin Huang nodded, he understood what Li Si meant. It is nothing more than to slow down strategically, observe the changes within the Xiongnu, and then decide how to take action.

"Li Si, there is something I want to tell you."

"I respectfully listen to your instructions." Li Si said respectfully.

The blue sky and white clouds, with a gentle breeze blowing, make people very comfortable. But what Emperor Qin said next made Li Siru fall into the coldest winter for the longest time.

"I want to tour the east. I have been in Xianyang City for a long time, and I also want to see what my country of Qin is like outside of Guandong?" Emperor Qin said leisurely. That look is like the leisurely feeling of a white-collar worker who has been working for a long time and quits a boring job and wants to go on a trip.

But can white-collar workers compare with emperors? In other words, can a generation of emperors, like ordinary white-collar workers in modern times, stop working if they don't want to do it, or change jobs if they are unhappy at work?

Li Si was shocked. The emperor's body is tied to the country, the country and the country. This is not just a flattery thought up by ancient civil servants. Although the emperor at this moment has not yet become as deified as in later generations, his status is related to countless people, large and small, who serve this empire. What's more, although the land of Kanto is peaceful now, there is an undercurrent inside. Li Si knew that Fusu had gathered many forces from the remaining tribes of the six countries and hundreds of schools of thought that were enemies of Qin in the past because of his relationship with the peasant family. However, this is only on the surface after all. Secretly, I don’t know how many people hate Qin and Ying Zheng. In the past, before Emperor Qin even left the palace, assassins who wanted to kill him had already dyed the palace gate with blood. What's more, Emperor Qin wants to patrol eastward. The journey along the way is unpredictable and dangerous, and there are many opportunities for these remnants to strike.

"Your Majesty, you can't. There are unpredictable dangers along the way. What's more, His Majesty the Crown Prince is not in the imperial capital at the moment. If His Majesty is on an eastward tour, who will supervise the country?" Li Si was in a hurry, and there were inevitably omissions in his words.

However, Brother Zheng didn't mind at all and said slowly: "After Yingzi Yi destroyed the Mo family, we recruited him back. If he refuses, there is no problem. Feng Quji and others are in Xianyang. There shouldn’t be any mistakes in this level.”

"Your Majesty, although Guandong is calm at the moment, there are turbulent undercurrents inside. It is really not the time to patrol east." Li Si persuaded him earnestly, almost kneeling down.

Li Si lowered his head, but didn't notice that Brother Zheng had a naughty smile on his face. He took a step forward gently and said to a group of tigers and patrolling soldiers under the imperial steps: "I want to patrol eastward to see the splendid mountains and rivers of the Qin Dynasty. However, the prime minister said that in my country, thieves and bandits are everywhere, and he advised me not to do it. Eastern patrol. What do you think?"

Brother Zheng's voice was so loud that thousands of soldiers in the square in front of the palace could probably hear it.

"I would like to accompany His Majesty the First Emperor on his eastern tour, but if Xiao Xiao comes here, I will cut off his head with one sword." The nearby doctor knelt down and shouted loudly.

"I would like to accompany His Majesty the First Emperor on his eastward tour, but if Xiaoxiao comes, I will cut off his head with one sword." Hundreds of tigers on the square knelt down in an instant, and the shouts came like a tsunami.

"Hahahaha!" Emperor Qin laughed: "Everyone, get up!"

"I would like to express my gratitude to His Majesty the First Emperor, and I am willing to serve the Qin Dynasty and His Majesty the Emperor until death." A group of tiger warriors stood up and struck the ground with long swords in their hands, and the momentum was overwhelming.

Emperor Qin turned back with a smile on his face: "How is it? Li Si, what else do you want to say?"

Li Si felt a little pain in his head at this moment, but he knew that this matter could not be stopped after all, so he said: "Your Majesty wants to tour the east, and the matter is serious. The relevant matters along the way. Can I discuss it with all the ministers? , and report to Your Majesty again."

"Go ahead!" Emperor Qin nodded. He also knew that when the emperor went on tour, the related matters were very complicated and could not be prepared in a month or two.

….

In the northern desert, green grass dominates the frost. This is an extremely desolate land with almost no human habitation. Stopping here and looking into the distance between heaven and earth, the mountains and rivers are desolate, and the boundaries between heaven and earth become blurred.

This is a desperate place, with very little water and very little food, allowing only a handful of people to survive.

Not far from the only large lake in the area, on a hill, a strong-boned young man was half-kneeling on the ground. There was also a huge gray-furred wild wolf in front of him.

If you were a hunter who had lived in this desolate land for a long time, you would probably be able to recognize this gray-furred wild wolf as the feared Gray Feathered Wolf King nearby.

In the dark night, he controlled the wolves to attack all kinds of prey, whether they were tribesmen or animals on the grassland. No life has ever been able to survive the hateful eyes of the Wolf King.

Those groups of wolves roared in a frightening way. Even the most ferocious beasts could only run away in despair when the wolves passed by. Many people want to hunt this wolf king. Because without the guidance of the Wolf King, the power of the wolves will inevitably weaken. However, this wolf king is very cunning. He always stays among the wolves and no one can do anything to him. No one who wanted to be a hero survived, and they all became the prey of the wolf king.

But now, this arrogant wolf king had its limbs tied and was thrown in front of the young man.

There are many shocking scars on the young man's body, some of which were caused when he fought with the wolf king and have just formed scars. Among the barbarians in the north, the scars on the body are not ugly. On the contrary, they represent how powerful the man is. Women among the Hu people are often willing to marry such brave men.

In the middle of the day, the young man picked up the dagger beside him and cut the artery of the wolf king with one blow. Then, blood sprayed out, and the young man lifted the wolf king and raised it above his head, letting the blood scatter on his body.

Until the blood drained from the wolf king's body, the boy turned into a bloody man.

"Very good, Maodun, you should have completed the first step and become the strongest warrior of my Great Huns."

The vicissitudes of life sounded, and a white-haired old man appeared in front of the young man.
