The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun narrowed his eyes: "If she is not in the Central Plains, where else can she go?"

Mr. Feng said bluntly: "The Nanzhao in the south, the Xiongnu in the north, the Persian in the west, etc., are all possible!"

Qin Yun held his forehead in annoyance. The world was so big that people could not cross it at their current level. If that was the case, they would never be able to find this person in their lifetime.

"Forget it, I won't look for it anymore!"

"It's really haunting!" he cursed in frustration.

Old Feng and Xuan Yunzi beside him looked at each other, both of them were startled, and then Old Feng hoarsely suggested: "Your Majesty, this old servant has a way, you can try it."

"What method?" Qin Yun raised his eyebrows with a hint of expectation in his eyes. What he said just now was just an angry remark. Deep down in his heart, he really wanted to find Wang Min and ask him about the child.

If it were any other man, he would never let it go without asking for the truth!

"Announce it to the world! Ask her to show up!" Old Feng blurted out.

Suddenly, Xuan Yunzi's mouth was crooked with fear, and his eyes widened: "This...this is inappropriate, right? If everyone in the world knew that Wang Min is not dead, this matter would become a big deal."

"And once the whole story comes to light, I will be the first one to be held accountable by Empress Murong!" he said bitterly, his face turning pale with fear.

Elder Feng looked at Qin Yun and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I don't want to mention Wang Min's name, I just want to wait for an old friend to settle the grudge."

"Given Wang Min's personality, he will definitely keep the appointment after hearing the news!"

"Even if she doesn't show up in person, she'll definitely be exposed! This way we can have the best of both worlds without causing a huge impact."

Hearing this, Qin Yun's eyes suddenly lit up. There's hope, there's hope!

Indeed, with Wang Min's personality, it is impossible for her to hide in a corner and keep to herself. She likes grandeur and clamor, and she will definitely not miss such an occasion!

"Okay, let's do it!"

"Wang Min wants to use the child to drive me crazy and make me sleep deprived, but I won't do what she wants! From today on, all the troops sealing off the Central Plains will be withdrawn, and the Jinyiwei will no longer need to investigate!"

"Order the imperial capital, the grasslands, and all the states in the Central Plains to issue a notice together and announce it to the world! Two months later, I will wait alone in Xianzhen Valley for an old friend to settle the grudge. If you keep the appointment, everything will be easy to discuss. If you don't keep the appointment, this will be the end!"

Mr. Feng was startled and said in unison, "Yes!"

In fact, in other words, this notice is an ultimatum: if you come, we will talk; if not, we will go our separate ways.

Based on Wang Min's previous personality, she would definitely come, and once she came, Qin Yun would never let her go.

"Hmph, I just don't believe I can't defeat you!" Qin Yun was very unhappy. Wang Min appeared on purpose and disappeared without a trace. It showed that he had no good intentions!

Xuan Yunzi on the side had a complicated expression. He had always been by Qin Yun's side. He knew everything in his heart over the past six months. His Majesty had been anxious several times, as if the affairs of the Jurchens were not as important as the affairs of Wang Min and her son.

He couldn't help but wonder whether this plan would succeed. Who would win the battle between His Majesty and Wang Min? In the past, His Majesty would definitely win.

But now, after all, Wang Min has the initiative and is naturally restless. Will he give His Majesty another show of power?

Xuan Yunzi has been an insider since the beginning. If the matter is exposed, he will definitely be in trouble. He is sweating and groaning in his heart. How will this matter end? If it continues like this, I will have to run away to Nanzhao and hide!

Soon, the order was carried by many Jinyiwei and rushed out of the country to the vast territory of Daxia. It was expected that the news would be completely spread within half a month.

There is more than a month left, which is enough time for Wang Min to get the news and rush to Xianzhen Valley, as if everything has entered a countdown.

After Mr. Feng returned, he was ready to get busy again, but Qin Yun stopped him and told him to take a good rest for a while and delegate all the work to others.

It was around noon and the sun was shining brightly.

Qin Yun brought a group of close ministers to inspect the Great Wall of Xianzhen Valley. In half a year, the Great Wall has taken shape, stretching for dozens of miles, across the mountains, and almost starting from the extreme point of the northern border.

Clang!

Bang bang bang!

There are many laborers around the Great Wall, sweating profusely, constantly smashing boulders, moving carts, but they are definitely not doing hard labor. They have clean water, clean meals, meat for one meal every day, and even built sheds to sleep in. It seems like a good job, just a little tiring.

"Your Majesty, are you satisfied?" The ministers of the Ministry of Works who were in charge of the casting of the Great Wall asked nervously, their faces dark and covered in dirt.

As far as Qin Yun could see, the Great Wall had no end in sight. It stood tall and majestic like an unyielding beast, protecting the Central Plains behind it.

At least 100,000 civilian workers and prisoners are working on the project. The speed is not very fast, but it is not slow either.

But this was still just a small part of his plan, not the end: "Well, yes, it will be very useful in the future to resist cavalry, but I wonder if it can stop the elephant army?"

Zhu Rong, who was standing by, heard this and a trace of solemnity flashed across her beautiful eyes: "If the Great Wall is equipped with red cannons, no matter how many elephant troops there are, they will all be reduced to ashes."

Everyone nodded in agreement. As everyone knew, every section of the Great Wall had space reserved for cannons and was equipped with beacon towers. When the signal smoke sounded, countless red cannons would thunder!

Qin Yun frowned: "But it is too troublesome to transport the red cannon in. It can only be used to fire at a fixed point and is not mobile enough. I have asked Jin Zhu in the imperial capital to start researching throwing shells."

"That way, each soldier can carry his own shells and throw them out to explode, without the need for a gun body."

Zhu Rong was shocked: "There are such weapons?"

"Then why not just conquer the north and put an end to it once and for all." Beneath her beautiful face, besides being wild, she was also a bit impatient.

Qin Yun smiled and said, "It's not that easy. To destroy a country, we can only suppress them for a hundred years at most. After a few hundred years, the nomadic peoples in the north will still cause chaos. Building the Great Wall and casting bombs are a century-long plan."

"Are you asking me to kill all the people in the north?"

Zhu Rong's beautiful eyes flickered, as if she understood but not quite.

At this moment, Qin Yun's eyes suddenly caught sight of people in the distance, two or three, sneaking across the ditch in ragged clothes, and rushing towards the Great Wall.

"The Jurchens? What are they doing?"

Everyone looked at him, and Yan Zhong explained in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, these are people from the Jurchens, they must have fled here. Half of the people who are building the Great Wall are people who have fled from the Jurchens."

A minister of the Ministry of Works frowned: "There is fighting in the Jurchen territory, nine out of ten houses are empty, the war for power has reached its climax, and in the end it is these Jurchen people who suffer."

"It just so happens that the Great Wall still needs a large number of manpower, so we have the audacity to take these people in, give them food, and let them work. I hope Your Majesty will not blame us."

It was obvious to the naked eye that most people showed a hint of sympathy. Most of those fleeing were women, carrying babies on their backs, traveling through mountains and rivers. They could no longer survive in the chaotic war situation among the Jurchens.
