The Jagged Empire of Daqin

"Huh!" Ying Chang snorted coldly, threw the balled emergency report on the imperial case, and said in a cold tone: "I don't care who he is rushing at. Anyone who violates my Qin realm is an invasion, and I will fight against Daqin." For the enemy, where is the Minister of Rites!"

"The minister is here!" Kong, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, immediately stepped out of the queue and responded.

Ying Chang's eyes stayed on Kong, and his tone was still cold: "Immediately send an envoy to Yan and tell Emperor Yan that if we don't retreat, we will unite with the Zhao Empire to destroy Yan and let him taste the taste of the north and south. If he doesn't want to be The next Jin Empire, let him go back to the Great Wall!"

"Abiding by the order!" Kong bowed down in response with a solemn expression, and then retreated to his stand.

Ying Chang took a deep breath to relieve the anger in his heart. After a while, Ying Chang's face softened, "Du Ai Qing, is there enough food for the Yanbei and Yanxibei battalions?"

Dressed in the court uniform of Qilin Buzi, Marquis of Wu Jin, Du Changjing, walked out of the queue, bowed down with a solemn expression and reported: "Return to Your Majesty, I can last for two years!"

Ying Chang nodded to show his understanding, Du Changjing immediately retreated to his station upon seeing this.

Chapter 418: Emperor Qi's Shock!

"Where is the Minister of War!" Ying Chang called out expressionlessly.

"The minister is here!" Yang Ze, Minister of the Ministry of War, hurriedly stepped out of the queue and responded.

"After the dynasty is over, immediately dispatch millions of arrows from the Hyogo and send them to the Yanbei and Yanxibei camps!" Ying Chang ordered decisively.

If Daqin had not just finished the Northern Expedition and there were a lot of things waiting to be dealt with, then it would not be as simple as sending arrows!

"Follow the order!" Yang Ze responded without saying a word, and then retreated to his stand.

Ying Chang waved his big sleeves and said with a displeased face, "I'm in such a good mood, it's all ruined by the Yan Empire!"

Originally, he was in a beautiful mood, but now, he was almost furious!

"He is courting death!"

Bai Qi, who had been silent for a long time, uttered four words. Both his expression and tone were as cold as before, and this point has not changed until now.

"I, Great Qin, have formed a relationship with the Yan Empire!"

"Yeah yeah!"

"This is the disadvantage brought about by expansion. The trouble in the northwest has been eliminated, and now there is a trouble in Yan. Fortunately, the Jin Empire has not recovered, and Qi Yue is relatively gentle. Otherwise, my Great Qin would have to face four empires at the same time." threat!"

"In the future, there will probably be more incidents like this!"

The ministers talked a lot, and the things they discussed were all useless things. Ying Chang was even more upset when he heard it, and quickly waved his hands and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about the Yan Empire, the more you talk about it, the more annoying it gets. Hurry up and play, there are still a lot of memorials waiting to be reviewed in Zhenyu's study!"

All the officials fell silent one after another, making the hall in a quiet stage. Now, except for the Ministry of Punishment, the five departments are still busy, and there is nothing to report for the time being!

Seeing that no one came out, Ying slowly got up from the dragon chair, and softly shouted expressionlessly: "Retire!"

As soon as the words fell, the officials knelt down one after another, and the military officers knelt on one knee and shouted in unison: "I wait to send you off to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Ying Chang walked down the high platform and left the Kylin Palace from the back hall. After Ying Chang's figure disappeared from the eyes of all the officials, all the officials got up from the ground one after another, and then left the solemn and sacred Kylin Palace one after another.

Not long after the dynasty was dispersed, news of the Yan Empire's invasion of the North Desert quickly spread throughout Xianyang City!

"Damn black turtle, dare to invade our Great Qin!"

"Damn it, do we really think our Daqin is the Daqin five years ago?"

"The Yan Empire is despicable and shameless. They actually went to war without declaring it. This is a provocation to our Great Qin!"

"My Great Qin conquered the Northwest Desert, but failed to deter the Yan Empire? How courageous is the Yan Empire!"

"Emperor Yan is incompetent and cruel, and harms Zhongliang. Zhang Xiang is right to leave Yan. Emperor Yan is taking revenge!"

"The majestic emperor of a country has such a narrow mind. I really feel sad for the people of Yan!"

The people of Xianyang City were furious about this. For a while, the people of Xianyang City and some refined scholars crazily condemned the Yan Empire with thousands of poems, all of which were insulting. Hearing these verses, it is estimated that I will be pissed off.

At the same time, the Great Qi Empire, Chancheng Imperial Capital, Imperial Palace, and Zangshu Pavilion!

"In the 48th year of Rende, Daqi's fiscal revenue reached 600 million taels of silver, and the treasury was full!"

In Zangshu Pavilion, Qi Didong, who is over 70 years old, is wearing a thin red inner robe and sitting on the dragon chair. In front of him, the old eunuch Li Min is reading a memorial, and Qi Didong is also listening carefully. .

The sun and the moon fly like an arrow, and time flies like an arrow. Even the emperor of a country can’t change the time. Qi Didong, who is over 70 years old, can’t see very clearly. He can only know the content of the memorial through the old eunuch Li Min. .

"Thirty-six million taels, haha, among the nations of Kyushu, only Daqi can do it!" A proud smile appeared on Qi Didong's old face.

With a fiscal revenue of 600 million taels a year, no empire can compare with it.

Qi Didong was so happy, and the old eunuch Li Min was also happy.

Like a kind old man, Qi Didong pointed to a pile of memorials on the royal case and said with a smile: "Keep reading!"

"Yes!" Li Min bent down and complied with a smile on his face, and then put away the financial income memorial in his hand, put it back in the imperial case, and took another memorial from the imperial case. Min unfolded the memorial, and a look of shock appeared on his face involuntarily!

Although Qi Didong's eyes were not very clear, he was still able to observe people's expressions, and when he noticed the change in Li Min's face, Qi Didong couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, could it be that the Moon Empire invaded?"

"Uh... no, what the prime minister submitted was a memorial about the Qin Empire. The memorial stated that after the Qin Empire conquered the Northern Desert, it took only three months to conquer the Great Wolf Empire that had just been established. Expelled from Jieshan, conquered the western desert, now the Xiguan of the Qin Empire has become the Neiguan, the Qin army increased its troops to Nanguan by [-] soldiers and horses, and set up a large camp at my Daqitankou Pass, with [-] Qin army cavalry stationed, and According to the Moon Empire, there are also Qin troops in Yanshui Pass of the Moon Empire, and it is estimated that the Qin Empire has also set up a camp at Yanshui Pass!" Li Min read this memorial with a face full of shock.

"what?"

The smile on Qi Didong's face froze in an instant, and turned serious, his brows were wrinkled, his eyes were narrowed, and a turbulent sea arose in his heart!

The strength of the Qin Empire is against the sky?

Conquering the Northern Desert for two years is fine, it is acceptable, but what is the situation of consecutively conquering the Western Desert within three months? Could it be that the Qin Empire has gods to help?

"What else is happening in the Qin Empire?" Qi Didong asked calmly.

"Oh, by the way, the memorial also stated that the Qin Empire is going to hold a canonization ceremony tomorrow, and a wedding ceremony next month. What kind of Kyushu celebration banquet will be held in April next year, and invite the nations of Kyushu to the banquet to celebrate the Great Qin Empire's conquest of the Northwest. Damo!" Li Min said with a shocked expression.

"Did you invite Da Qi?" Qi Didong asked immediately.

"Invitation, Lord Prime Minister has agreed, since His Majesty is recuperating these days, it is not appropriate to disturb, so the slaves did not inform this matter, the Qin envoy has already left the imperial capital yesterday!" Li Min lowered his head slightly, a little worried about Qi Emperor Dong scold him.

Qi Didong was silent for a while, he didn't blame Li Min for not notifying him, he also knew that Li Min was doing it for his own good, after all he knew his body well, and he wouldn't live long.

"Did the Qin Empire invite Da Qi to attend the wedding ceremony, or the Kyushu celebration banquet?" Qi Didong asked calmly.

"All invited!" Li Min bowed respectfully and replied.

PS: Ying Chang looked at the map of Kyushu for a long time, and lamented, "It's a pity, if I still have a monthly pass, I can completely unify the great cause in this life. If I don't have a monthly pass, I can only hand over the great cause of unification to the prince!"

Chapter 419 The Overjoyed King and Minister of Jin!

"Ugh!"

Emperor Qidong sighed softly, and couldn't help sighing: "Who would have thought that the weak Qin, which was still suffering from internal and external troubles five years ago, has become a behemoth that shocks the northwest countries. I don't know whether it is good or bad for Da Qi to form an alliance with it. But for now, being friendly with Qin is good for me!"

"How about this, pick some good things from the treasury, and let the envoys to the wedding ceremony bring them over, and treat them as Da Qi's wedding gift to Emperor Qin!"

"As ordered!"

.......

Great Jin Empire, Jinling Imperial Capital, Imperial Palace, Taihe Palace!

In the Taihe Palace, the pale Jin Emperor Min Ziying was lying on the dragon couch exhausted, and an imperial physician was kneeling beside the dragon couch to check his pulse. After a while, the imperial doctor withdrew his hand to feel the pulse. , breathed a sigh of relief:

"Your Majesty's pulse is normal, you only need to rest for a few days, but your Majesty can't overwork, you need a proper rest!"

Ever since the Great Qin Empire conquered the Northwest Desert, Jin Emperor Min Ziying was under a lot of pressure, as if there was a mountain on his shoulders, and he couldn't breathe under the pressure. In order to narrow the gap in strength between Qin and Jin, Jin Emperor Min Ziying became a model worker.

Wake up earlier than chickens and sleep later than dogs.

Jin Emperor Min Ziying, who had no martial arts background, couldn't bear the physical exhaustion and psychological pressure at all, so he fell ill directly.

Jin Emperor Min Ziyan also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the imperial physician's words, he waved his hand lightly and said, "Go on... by the way...don't spread the news about my illness, otherwise...otherwise you don't want to use your head. wanted..."

Jinzi Min Ziying, who was exhausted all over, spoke in a much lower voice.

"I understand!"

The imperial physician shuddered all over, and immediately got up from the ground, bent down respectfully to bid farewell, and then turned and left the bedroom. As soon as the imperial physician left, Jin Emperor Min Ziying got off the dragon couch, walked staggeringly to On the high platform of the main hall, sit on the dragon chair and pick up a memorial to read.

He couldn't afford to be ill, and every time he wasted, the Qin Empire would become stronger, and the Great Jin would become more and more dangerous.

As an aspiring king, the most intolerable thing is that the empire perishes in his own hands.

"Your Majesty! Good news!"

"Good news, good news, my Dajin is saved!"

At this time, Qiu Yixiao laughed loudly from outside the hall, and then saw Qiu Yixiao ecstatically running into the Taihe Palace, seeing Qiu Yixiao so excited, the exhausted Jin Emperor Min Ziying also forced a smile, put down The memorial in his hand said with a smile: "What kind of happy event did Qiu Aiqing meet?"

Qiu Yixiao ran not far from the high platform and stopped. Just as he was about to tell the good news, he found that Jin Emperor Min Ziying's face was not right, and he couldn't help asking with a worried tone: "Your Majesty, what is this?" What's the matter? Why is your face so pale?"

Jin Emperor Min Ziyan was slightly taken aback, then smiled disapprovingly and said, "It's okay, it's just that I didn't drink any water!"

"Ah..." Qiu Yixiao sighed inwardly, he knew, what was it that he didn't drink water, he was obviously tired, it's a pity, the destiny doesn't favor Jin, otherwise, with His Majesty's wise and powerful martial arts, Da Jin would have long ago become the overlord of Kyushu , how can there be anything about the Qin Empire.

"Your Majesty, good news is coming. The Yan Empire has taken action against the Qin Empire!" Qiu Yixiao reported with a rather excited expression.

"what!"

Jin Emperor Min Ziyan was taken aback for a moment, couldn't help being surprised, and immediately asked impatiently, "Why did the Yan Empire attack the Qin Empire? And how?"

Qiu Yixiao took a deep breath, and talked with a blushing face, "Your Majesty, you don't know, now the Qin Empire has an extra prime minister, and this prime minister is Zhang Feizi, the prime minister of Yan. Zhang Feizi rebelled against Yan and went to Qin, which angered Yan Emperor, Emperor Yan was furious, and directly ordered the two Great Wall battalions to attack the desert in the north!"

"Your Majesty, once the Yan Empire makes such a move, the Qin Empire will not attack us for the time being, and with the restraint of the Yan Empire, our Great Jin has a lot of time to restore our national strength. Your Majesty, our Great Jin Empire has a chance!"

"Okay! Okay! Someone has finally taken care of this damned Qin Empire!"

Jin Emperor Min Ziyan jumped up excitedly from the dragon chair, so excited, this news is so exciting, no wonder Qiu Yixiao was ecstatic, if it were him, he would be happy too, no, the originally pale and bloodless face has turned rosy stand up.

"How much food is left in the treasury?" Jin Emperor Min Ziying asked with a blushing face.

"Ah?" Qiu Yixiao didn't regain his composure for a while, and said in astonishment: "Your Majesty, why are you asking this?" After asking this, Qiu Yixiao found Jin Emperor Min Ziying staring at him, and immediately replied; "The treasury There are still 3000 million taels of silver and 500 million shi of grain!"

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even though the Jin Dynasty is not as good as one day, but the foundation is rich, and it is beaten into this ghost. The treasury still has 3000 million taels of silver and 500 million shi of grain. This is worse than money for some princes. For example, relative to the ten-year fiscal revenue.

Jin Emperor Min Ziyan shook his big sleeves, sat on the dragon chair in high spirits and said: "In the past, Qi supported the Qin Empire with money and food, so that the Qin Empire had the confidence to fight against our great Jin, thus making Qin and Qi form an alliance. Today, I also want to learn from the Qi Empire. , to support the Yan Empire's money and food. After the Yan Empire defeats the Qin Empire, it will definitely be very grateful to my Dajin, and will form an alliance with my Dajin. As long as our Dajin and the Yan Empire form an alliance, Qin will not dare to move my Dajin !"

After listening to these words, Qiu Yixiao fell into deep thought, what he said was good, but...

"Your Majesty, things are not so simple. In the past, the Qin Empire was poor and weak, with internal and external troubles, and the treasury was empty. The Qi Empire's support for money and food was a timely help, while the Yan Empire's national power was prosperous, and its fiscal revenue in one year has already covered our Dajin treasury. We support The Yan Empire belongs to the icing on the cake, and it also has the meaning of flattery, fearing that the nations will laugh at it!"

Sending charcoal in the snow can make people very grateful, but icing on the cake can only make people feel disdainful, and it is not taken seriously at all. If this money and food are used to support the Yan Empire, it will definitely be a waste of money and food. No way, what kind of morals will this kind of emperor tell you?

Qiu Yixiao's words were like a basin of cold water pouring on Jin Emperor Min Ziying's head, which made Jin Emperor Min Ziying who was eager to try feel disappointed.

"Then what should we do? Don't we have to do anything?" Jin Emperor Min Ziying said eagerly. In his eyes, this was a great opportunity to suppress the Qin Empire. If he missed it, it might be gone.

Qiu Yixiao couldn't help shaking his head and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, I really don't have to do anything in Dajin, just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman. In fact, speaking from a neutral point of view, the Yan Empire betrayed Yan because of Zhang Feizi. Going to Qin, and fighting against Qin without declaring it is really narrow-minded, this is an unjust war, and will be criticized by all countries!"

Chapter 420 Qin envoy Lan Jin!

"If my Dajin participates in it, I'm afraid I will end up being infamous for flattering Yan and Meiyan. Regardless of victory or defeat, the people of Qin will resent my Dajin even more. The loss outweighs the gain. I hope Your Majesty will think twice before acting!"

"So that's how it is!" Jin Zimin Min Ziying suddenly realized, and finally understood.

"His Majesty!"

At this time, there was a call in vain from outside the hall, Jin Emperor Min Ziying subconsciously looked up, Qiu Yixiao also turned his head to look outside the hall, and saw the old eunuch Fu Sheng standing respectfully at the entrance of the hall.

Fu Sheng is 70 years old. According to common sense, he should be sent out of the palace and find a good place to spend the rest of his life. However, Jin Emperor Min Ziying was reluctant to let him go. After all, he was used to it, and Fu Sheng also Reluctant to leave, Fu Sheng still followed Jin Emperor Min Ziying.

"It's Fu Sheng, come in!"

Jin Emperor Min Ziying was in a good mood and waved to Fu Sheng with a smile on his face.

Fu Sheng has been with Jin Emperor Min Ziying, and he is very aware of the latter's physical condition. Seeing the latter's ruddy complexion and full of energy, Fu Sheng couldn't help being surprised, but Fu Sheng didn't think too much, and soon walked into the Taihe Palace with Buddha dust.

"Fu Sheng, what's the matter?"

Jin Emperor Min Ziying, who was in a happy mood, spoke much softer.

Fu Sheng walked behind Qiu Yixiao, bent down respectfully and reported: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Qin is waiting outside the palace!"

"What?" Qiu Yixiao was slightly taken aback, "The Qin envoy is here? When did this happen?"

As the prime minister, why didn't he know that the envoy of Qin had entered Jin Dynasty?

"Yes, why did the envoy of Qin come here suddenly?" Jin Emperor Min Ziying was also puzzled.

Fu Sheng couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and carefully gave Jin Emperor Min Ziying a look. Seeing this look, Jin Emperor Min Ziying was even more confused. What does it mean?

"Oh! I suddenly remembered!"

Jin Emperor Min Ziyi seemed to hear something, his face suddenly realized, and he said quickly: "A few days ago, there was a memorial in the Ministry of Rites, and this memorial was the news of Qin envoy's entry into the customs, but I forgot about it in a hurry! "

Hearing this explanation, Qiu Yixiao was relieved, it turned out that the Ministry of Rites did not submit the memorial to the prime minister's mansion, no wonder he didn't know about it.
