Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention

  Chapter 68 This time the mock king favors you

  In the palace, Ying Yiren convened the ministers to discuss how to deal with the disturbance of Yiqu.

Bai Jiayi said: "Your Majesty, the Yiqu country is trying to find out the reality of our Qin country. Once it is determined that we are unable to defend, their army will march into the Qin country! In my opinion, it is necessary to send soldiers to the border defense as soon as possible !"

   In the face of foreign enemies, the old clans are still unanimously foreign.

  Grand Master Meng Yuan still closed his eyes in the hall to meditate. He is now in a state of pretending to be dead and rarely speaks. He even claimed to be sick and asked for leave so he could not go to court. If he hadn't simulated it several times, Ying Yiren might have been deceived by him, thinking that his health was really failing.

   "That's right." Jing Ping said, "Where do we have so many troops to defend Yiqu now? Unless we recruit again!"

   "Then conscription!" Bai Jiayi said.

  "Can't be conscripted!" Zhang Beichen directly objected, saying: "We have issued a decree to rest the people. If we conscript now, not only will the farming be abandoned, but also the people's trust will be lost! The loss outweighs the gain!"

   "What does the prime minister mean, just let the people from Yiqu break in?" Bai Jiayi sneered.

"Of course not." Zhang Beichen looked at him and said, "I know that there are many private soldiers and slaves in your family! In the new "Qin Law", there are strict requirements on the number of private soldiers, and require To abolish slaves, the number of private soldiers and slaves is probably not in compliance with the law, right?"

   "Prime Minister Zhang, what do you mean?" Xi Qiming asked, "The enemy is now, and you still want to argue with us about reform?"

"No!" Zhang Beichen shook his head and said, "As for the private soldiers and slaves of each family, I don't want to investigate strictly for the time being. Now that foreign enemies are invading, everyone wants to make contributions. For the sake of Qin, I hope that each family can separate themselves. private soldiers and slaves to support the frontier. If they can make meritorious service, they can have a legal status in Qin, and they will no longer be wanted by the government and liquidated."

  Hearing Zhang Beichen's words, the old clansmen sneered in their hearts. Where Zhang Beichen didn't want to investigate, he was obviously incapable of doing so!

   It has been nearly two months since the national policy was formulated, and the new law has not been fully popularized in Qin State. How can Zhang Beichen have the power to check the population inside his old clan?

  He clearly took this opportunity to wear down the power of the old clan!

   "What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true!" Before Bai Jiayi and others could refute Zhang Beichen, Ying Yiren made a decision directly, saying: "The Qin Kingdom goes to war every year, and there is no one in ten of the people who are young and middle-aged! Within two years, it is not appropriate to conscript again!"

   "If it is a conscription, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the people. If the old, weak, sick and disabled go to the battlefield, it will only make the Yiqu people think that the strength of our Qin State is declining, and increase their ambitions!"

   "I see, according to the prime minister's words, each family sent private soldiers and slaves to the border to support. The widow gave them the status of Qin nationals, and all their military exploits belonged to each family."

   "The widow will set an example, and the office will send out 2,000 people."

  Ying Yiren's words directly blocked everyone. What she meant was nothing more than saying that the widows are not ignorant of your private secrets, but are turning a blind eye.

   Now that foreign enemies are invading, you havetened to say that I will let you go! If you don't express it, I can't deal with you now, and I will settle it slowly in the future!

  The old clansmen could only sigh inwardly, this Ying Yiren was completely led by Zhang Beichen! I really miss that innocent Ying Yiren back then!

   "Your Majesty is wise!" said Meng Yuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed all the time. "The old minister is old and cannot use so many servants at home. The old minister is willing to send thousands of servants to go to the border to guard Qin!"

   Seeing that Meng Yuan had expressed his opinion, Bai Jiayi had no choice but to say: "I have eight hundred servants, and I am willing to defend the border for the country."

   "I have eight hundred servants." Xi Qiming also followed.

   "The minister has five hundred servants."

   "The minister is willing to send four hundred servants!"

  …

  The courtiers expressed their opinions one after another, and soon gathered nearly ten thousand people to form a reinforcement army to support the border.

  Zhang Beichen laughed secretly in his heart. He knew that the hidden population of the old clans must be more than that. But this wave made them bleed at least once!

  Ying Yiren ordered: "Che Yang, I ordered you to form reinforcements immediately to support the border and resist the invasion of the Yiqu people. Remember, we must strengthen our momentum, and don't let the Yiqu people think that we have no soldiers in Qin!"

   "The general will obey!" Che Yang set off immediately.

  …

  A reinforcement army of 10,000 people soon drove to the border between Qin State and Yiqu State.

  This time, the Yiqu Kingdom is just a trial, so the two sides are only fighting on a small scale at the border, and there have been no major problems for the time being.

  As for the Qin State, it currently does not have the strength to suppress the Yiqu State. What Qin needs is time, the reform has already begun, and in three years, Qin can recover. In five years, Qin State can grow stronger. In ten years, Qin State can be strong and train a strong army!

  Three months passed quickly.

  Yiqu seems to be uncertain about the strength of Qin State, so it has not sent a large army to attack. After Ying Meng quelled the rebellion in some Longxi areas, he also sent 10,000 troops to support Che Yang, who stabilized the border situation.

  Ying Yiren was still busy with official business. After going out for horseback riding with Zhang Beichen last time, the two of them hardly got along with each other because of their busy schedules.

  As for Zhang Beichen, he is still busy implementing the new law. He has already begun to divide counties in Qin State, recovering the land of the old clans as much as possible, and setting up counties. In this way, the management power of the place will return to the hands of the monarch, instead of letting the old clans be the local emperors.

  …

  Night, in the mansion.

  Zhang Beichen was resting on the bed after finishing his official duties.

   "Zhang Beichen, are you asleep?" No need to guess, this is a message from Wei Yao.

  Since the last time he discovered that the emulator could still chat, Wei Yao would send him messages from time to time.

   During the day, Zhang Beichen was busy with work and had no time to reply, so she chose to "harass" at night.

  Zhang Beichen: "Just about to sleep, there are too many things to do."

  Wei Yao: "Is it about Yiqu?"

  Yiqu State and Qin State are on the border of Wei State, so she naturally knows about the friction.

   "King Yiqu's attitude is not clear, I'm afraid he wants to attack Qin." Zhang Beichen said helplessly.

  Wei Yao: "Then why don't you hurry up and come to Wei State! That guy, King Yiqu, doesn't look good enough in front of this king! He often pays tribute to me!"

  She is a little proud that the Yiqu country used to be a vassal state of Qin. But now that Qin State is weak, Yiqu wants to annex it instead.

   As for the mighty state of Wei, King Yiqu did not dare to provoke him at all. Instead, he expressed his submission and offered tribute and gifts.

  Zhang Beichen: "Wei Wang, don't say such things that provoke my relationship with Qin Wangjun and his ministers!"

   Wei Yao didn't care at all, and sent a picture backhand: picture, JPG

  In the picture, Wei Yao is wearing a cook's clothes and making tofu. I don't know who made this cook's dress for her. The neckline is very loose. From the perspective of the picture, you can see many scenes that need to be mosaic.

  Wei Yao: "I finally made tofu according to the method you said! How about my tofu?"

  Zhang Beichen replied immediately: "Big, white and round!"

  Wei Yao: "?? This tofu is all cubes!"

  After she replied to the message, she realized something was wrong, and her face turned red: "Zhang Beichen, fortunately, you are facing this king. If you dare to say this to Ying Yiren, she will definitely kill you in anger!"

  Zhang Beichen laughed secretly in his heart, Ying Yi was not so stingy.

  Wei Yao continued to seduce him: "Hurry up and come to Wei State, I have tofu for you to eat here! I heard that poor people in Qin State eat duckweed and weeds, it's too miserable!"

   I have to say that this proposal is very attractive. Looking at the picture, Zhang Beichen was moved for a few seconds, but still declined.

  The two were about to continue chatting when a prompt appeared suddenly.

  【The cooling of the simulator has ended and can be turned on. 】

   "The simulator is about to start!" Wei Yao sat up abruptly, and quickly sent a message to Zhang Beichen: "Zhang Beichen, this simulation must come to me, I dote on you!"

   After finishing speaking, she couldn't wait to start the simulation.

   Thank you Cao Mengde for your tip. Ask for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, collections!
