Daqin: My weak and virtuous minister
Chapter 82 Loyal Ministers and Wise Rulers
When Zhang Yuanqing came over, Lu Sheng was leading people to weed the wheat in the fields.
"Why is the Marquis here?"
"gentlemen."
Fusu also came out from the ground.
In the past few days, Zhang Yuanqing asked Fusu to come to Lu Sheng to learn and help.
In just a few days, Fusu's originally fair face had turned wheat-colored due to the sun.
However, Fusu didn't care about these.
He lived a fulfilling life these days and learned a lot from Lu Sheng.
He recorded all of this and waited to show it to his brothers when he returned to Xianyang so that they could learn from him.
"Wipe the sweat."
Zhang Yuanqing took out a handkerchief and handed it to Fusu.
"After finishing my official duties today, I came to see how Mai is doing."
Speaking of this, Lu Sheng grinned happily.
"This year's wheat production is estimated to be double that of last year."
"Yes, sir. Look at these two plots of land. One is planted with improved methods, and the other is planted with the old method. Now the seedling emergence rate on this plot is obviously much higher, and the growth is better."
"Young Master now understands the germination rate."
Zhang Yuanqing patted Fusu's head. The seven-year-old boy had grown above his waist and was no longer the little kid from last year.
After receiving the pat on the head and praise from the gentleman, Fusu puffed out his chest with pride.
"Of course. Fusu has learned a lot from following Lu Sheng now."
Lu Sheng smiled at the studious Fusu.
Looking at the six kingdoms, there was probably only one prince like Fusu who was willing to farm in the fields.
Looking at Zhang Yuanqing, all this was thanks to this person.
"Are they growing beans over there? Are farmers starting to research methods for extracting oil?"
"Exactly. Thanks to the agricultural book given by the Marquis, Master said that we can start researching oil extraction methods this year. If successful, it will definitely benefit all people."
"well."
"Years of war have brought suffering to the people. All we can do is find a way to provide them with food."
Zhang Yuanqing looked at Lu Sheng and the farmers who were working, and felt admiration in his heart.
No matter what era, there are always some simple people who are dedicated to the people and have no selfish motives.
After walking around the fields, Zhang Yuanqing left.
On the way back, the road was bumpy. Zhang Yuanqing wanted to repair the road countless times, but he suppressed the idea.
It’s not the right time yet. Let’s wait until there is enough food after this year’s autumn harvest.
The Qin State was thriving, but the Zhao State Palace was shrouded in gloom.
Just because King Zhao Yan's life has come to an end.
In the dormitory
King Yan of Zhao dismissed everyone and left only Crown Prince Qian by his side.
"Prince, after I leave, you must govern Zhao well. I am incompetent and have lost the territory conquered by our ancestors. You must take it back."
King Yan of Zhao held Prince Qian's hand and spoke anxiously.
"Father, I will do my best to handle state affairs. As for Qin, I will make them return the land they have seized from my Zhao State."
King Yan of Zhao seemed to be comforted and let go of his hand with relief.
"If you are unsure about state affairs, you can ask Guo Kai. Guo Kai has followed me since he was young and is loyal to my State of Zhao. You can trust him."
"promise."
"Okay, okay, my son, let the others in."
In 236 BC, King Yan of Zhao died and Crown Prince Qian succeeded him as King of Zhao.
When the old king took over from the new one, General Pang Nuan stopped attacking the State of Yan and stationed troops at the border to prevent the State of Yan from raiding the State of Zhao.
秦国
After Yang Qiu and Wang Wu brought people to Yecheng, they began to take over the governance.
When the situation here was basically stable, Wang Jian left behind some troops to defend the city and led the army back to Xianyang.
"Thank you all, generals, for your hard work in this attack on Zhao."
In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng met his generals.
"I will never complain about the hard work of expanding the king's territory."
Nothing can make a general prouder than receiving the king's approval.
At this moment, all the generals swept away the fatigue from the battlefield, and even the wounds on their bodies no longer hurt.
"Well, my king and I are of one mind, so why worry about not accomplishing our great cause?"
"The soldiers who went on this expedition will be rewarded according to their merits, and the compensation for the injured soldiers will be the responsibility of Wang Wan."
"promise."
"Your Majesty, thanks to the military doctors you sent, many of the soldiers' wounds have been well treated. Before I came, the soldiers asked me to thank you for your care. Once their wounds have healed, they will continue to fight for you."
Wang Jian stepped forward with a bow and told Ying Zheng about the changes in the army.
"Hahaha"
Ying Zheng laughed out loud.
"General Wang Jian, when you return, tell your soldiers that I await their return to continue expanding my territory."
"promise."
"All the military doctors have worked hard this time, and they will all be rewarded."
"The king is wise."
"Your Majesty, our Qin State has triumphed mightily in this attack on Zhao. Wei will undoubtedly be wary of our state. I propose that we station troops on the Zhao-Wei border to guard against Wei and Chu."
Li Si made the suggestion. These days, Li Si had been so busy that he had eaten less, and in just two months, he had lost a lot of weight.
This made Ying Zheng ask about it specifically, and he almost thought that his talented person was sick from overwork.
At that time, Feng Quji envied Li Si for several days.
He has also become thinner, why doesn’t the king care about him separately?
"Your Majesty, I second the motion."
Feng Quji also followed up on Li Si's suggestion.
Qin destroyed Han too quickly, and then attacked Zhao, Wei, and Chu in succession, which must have made them wary and had to be on guard.
"Yes, send an order. General Meng Ao will be stationed in the Qin and Wei territories and command the troops of the four counties."
A few days later, Ying Zheng received a letter from Yao Jia.
Yao Jia confirmed that Li Mu was indeed a rare general and had his own way of using troops against the Huns.
Ying Zheng felt regretful.
Why aren't these talented people from our Qin State?
Afterwards, Ying Zheng sent another letter to Yao Jia, asking him to try to persuade Li Mu to surrender to Qin.
If the Qin State unifies the world in the future, the Xiongnu's land must be eliminated, and Li Mu will be of great use.
After the letter was sent out, Ying Zheng lamented that there were so many talents in the six countries, but it was a pity that Qin could not have all of them.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng felt that the construction of Daqin Academy was a bit slow, and planned to go and take a look after finishing his government affairs tomorrow. If there was a shortage of manpower, he could ask Feng Quji and Li Si to recruit migrant workers.
In Xinzheng, Meng Ao quickly received the summons from Ying Zheng and set off with his men.
Fortunately, the old Han land is now well governed, and there is no possibility of rebellion after he leaves, so Meng Ao is relieved.
Zhang Yuanqing specially took Fusu to see off General Meng Ao and others.
After this farewell, I don’t know how long it will take before we meet again.
Fusu was a little reluctant to leave. Looking at the white hair on General Meng Ao's temples, he felt a little depressed. He was still unhappy even when he went back.
"Prince Fusu, are you reluctant to part with General Meng Ao?"
In the carriage, Zhang Yuanqing asked.
"Fusu was not reluctant to leave, but he was a little touched when he saw the white hair on General Meng Ao's temples."
Zhang Yuanqing patted Fusu on the shoulder and said, "General Meng Ao is devoted to the Qin State. The Meng family is loyal to the king, and the king also has great trust in the Meng family. This is the greatest reward for General Meng Ao."
Since ancient times, loyal ministers must be matched with wise rulers. Obviously, this is the case with Ying Zheng and the Meng family.
