Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 547 Introducing Xianyang
Chapter 565 Introducing Xianyang
When Dale knew that the person in front of him was actually a member of the Qin Emperor's family, he put on a more respectful attitude, but felt a little relieved in his heart.His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor, who ruled this vast land that stretches for thousands of miles or even hundreds of millions of miles, sent his clan to receive him and others. Could it be seen as a respect for him and others?

The emperor who ruled such a huge empire, ruled more than billions of people, maybe he wouldn't care about the small countries in the Western Regions, would he?

When all the people had finished paying their respects, Dale stepped forward and respectfully raised a roll of white cloth before Ying An and bowed, "This is a gift from the countries of the Western Regions to His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor. Please, Mr. Minister, Submitted on behalf of."

These words were naturally relayed to Ying An by the translator next to them.

Hearing this, Ying An smiled and said: "You don't need to be too polite. I will come to contact you at the order of His Majesty. Three days later, His Majesty the Emperor will summon all princes in my court hall. These tributes to His Majesty, all princes At that time, it can be presented directly to my Majesty, the Emperor of Qin."

Naturally, it is impossible for the Ministry of Rites to accept the gifts presented to Ying Zheng by the people from the Western Regions at this time, not to mention that the people from the Western Regions came to see His Majesty the Emperor of Great Qin. As early as three days ago, the Ministry of Rites had quietly spread it throughout Xianyang through the Ministry of Rites.

Nowadays, people in Xianyang basically know that in the past few days, many small countries thousands of miles away from Great Qin have sent envoys to meet His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor.

Wanbang's coming to court seems to be the first clue!

Wouldn't it be better for these nobles from the Western Regions to present it to the emperor in the main hall of Xianyang Palace?
After saying this, Ying An turned sideways and asked: "The Ministry of Rites has arranged a residence for you in Xianyang City. I will hold a banquet to welcome you tonight. Please!"

Hearing the translation, Dale and the others thought it was Daqin's rule, so they stopped insisting, boarded the carriage of the Ministry of Rites, and walked along the main road to Xianyang City, thirty miles away.

As for the soldiers of the Longxi Army who escorted Dale and others into Xianyang, they followed the officials of the Ministry of War to the camp outside Xianyang City.

Whether they leave or stay depends on how the Ministry of War arranges.

Thirty miles was not too far away, but after more than an hour, on the edge of dusk, under the leadership of Ying An, Dale and his party finally saw Xianyang, the capital of the Great Qin Empire that had been envisioned countless times in their hearts.

However, no matter what they had imagined, they never expected that the Xianyang City that they and others saw with their own eyes would look like this.

This is a huge city without walls.

Without the towering city walls they imagined in their hearts, without the thick and strong city gates, and without the countless black-armored Qin troops patrolling back and forth, it is just a giant city without walls at dusk.

As dusk approaches, thousands of lights in Xianyang City are lit up, and the row upon row of lights turn Xianyang City in the snowstorm into a city of light that cannot be seen at a glance.

It has no towering city walls, no countless soldiers patrolling back and forth; because of the shroud of the setting sun, it restrained its domineering arrogance, leaving behind the endless vicissitudes of the simple black, heavy, and rushing to the face. Come.

You can see the crowds of people moving like ants in the dreamlike giant city, but all you can hear is the rustling of people in the sky and the earth.

It seems to be telling the past of this ancient and great city.

While Dell and the others were shocked by Xianyang, there was a different scene in the emperor's study room in Xianyang Palace.

And the object of the banquet tonight is none other than Meng Tian who just came back from Liaodong.

Having controlled the Jiuyuan Army for more than 20 years, Meng Tian's influence on the Jiuyuan Army far exceeds the evaluation of the court officials and Ying Zheng on the Jiuyuan Army.Strictly speaking, Meng Tian's orders are much more useful than the emperor's orders in the Jiuyuan Army through the generals at all levels who were born in the Meng family or were promoted by Meng Tian.

It is impossible to say that Ying Zheng has no fear.

But Ying Zheng couldn't blame this brother who grew up with him too much.

Meng Tian knew very well that the emperor gave him the position of the first duke of the Great Qin Dynasty, and now he is a minister of the province, and gave Meng Yi the position of minister of the Ministry of officials. What is the reason for all this.

After all, the emperor still felt ashamed of the Meng family, or it was just a disguised exchange.

If he didn't know the current affairs and continued to let the generals of the Jiuyuan Army write to the emperor to keep himself in the Jiuyuan Army, then in the end it would only be a disaster for the Meng family or the generals of the Jiuyuan Army.

Daqin is the Daqin of the Ying clan, and all people have only one object of allegiance, and that is the Emperor of Daqin.

Perhaps the emperor will give in temporarily for the sake of the stability of the Great Qin, but when the emperor is ready or the time comes, it is inevitable to do the matter of reckoning after autumn.Meng Tian knew this, and so did the entire Meng clan.

Therefore, Meng Tian obediently obeyed the arrangement, received the rewards with peace of mind, and was not dissatisfied with being deprived of military power.Of course, Meng Tian himself had no other thoughts in mind.

Because he knew that as long as he turned himself into an outsider and quietly watched Ying Zheng's actions, the last bit of disappointment and dissatisfaction in Meng Tian's heart would gradually fade away.

Delegating power to the cabinet, reforming the official system, reforming the administration of officials, and exempting light Yao from punishment, all these actions show that the emperor did not just to ensure his own throne, but more for the entire Qin Dynasty and the people of the world.

Meng Tian felt much more comfortable in his heart.

The only thing that makes Meng Tian a little dissatisfied is that the emperor seems to be too interested in expanding the territory.It's okay to drive the Huns to the north. After all, the Huns have invaded Daqin for hundreds of years, so they should take some action.

So what is the purpose of secretly mobilizing the army to go north to the wild land in the northeast and setting up the two counties of Heilongjiang and Koryo?
After the Battle of Bijia City, one hundred thousand Longxi troops were even dispatched to the west. Obviously, after the autumn harvest, another big battle was about to happen.

What is the use of those wild lands?Daqin is old enough now, isn't it?

If you are short of money, just grab it directly, why bother.

After all, building a city is really not a good deal.

A little carelessness may lead to all previous efforts in vain.

But it was impossible for him to bluntly say that the emperor who wrote the letter was not good, so he had to go back to Xianyang and plan to have a good talk with the emperor in private.

This was the main purpose of his coming to meet Ying Zheng today.

Ying Zheng looked at this young friend with gray temples and felt a little bit sorry.

By my own calculation, they are all 50 years old, but because of Ying Gang, his body has returned to the state of his youth.

But Meng Tian worked hard for the empire, but now he looks much bigger than himself.

"Brother Meng, you have worked hard."
