Xiong Qi led the Mi surname to retreat against the clan, and the Qin State officially entered the period when the Ying clan was in charge. As the king, Ying Zheng, in addition to holding the military position in his hands, always watched the clan rule with a cold shoulder.
Custodes Camp
Captain Zhang Tang, who was guarding the army, was furious in the tent, "You bastard, today we are training at Mao. You, Ying Yan, are a thousand-year-old man, but you actually mistakenly command Mao. There are 2,500 subordinates under you. Their formations are scattered and weak. You said, according to military regulations,
What to do!"
Although Ying Yan stood at the lower end, his neck was raised, his eyes drifted upward, and he did not speak.
Looking at him, Zhang Tang stopped talking nonsense and directly convicted him: "The crime of slowing down the army will be beheaded. Remember that you are a member of the great king's clan, so you can avoid the death penalty, but you cannot escape the living crime. Come on, drag me down and beat him three times."
Hundreds of army sticks.”
"You are a cowardless old man. Even the Yan Kingdom does not dare to go to the sun. You can only show off your power here! There are only three hundred military sticks. If I, Ying Yan, give me a shout, I will take your surname!"
When Ying Yan was dragged down, he suddenly shouted, causing Zhang Tang's face to turn red. Ying Jue looked at Ying Yan a little differently.
If the three hundred military sticks can really hit someone, it is really easy to kill a person. Zhang Tang is indeed old and not a confidant of Ying Zheng. He dare not directly attack the clan members. Ying Yan
He was beaten so hard that he couldn't get out of bed, but his life was not in danger.
In the military tent, Ying Meng applied some wound medicine to him, "Ying Yan, are you okay?"
"Which of your eyes can see that I look like nothing is wrong... Hey, Zhang Tang, this old man, sooner or later I will come back with revenge."
Seeing that he still wanted to cause trouble, Ying Meng advised: "After all, we are in the army here. If the news reaches the king, we will definitely not be able to get any favors."
"What are you afraid of?! My father is now a Tingwei, and he is supervising all the officials in Xianyang City. With him here, who dares to bring matters to the king?"
Ying Jue happened to walk outside the tent at this time, still holding a jade bottle in his hand. Hearing Ying Yan's unscrupulous words, he stopped, his eyes seemed to penetrate the tent, and finally chose to leave.
He walked back to his tent with strange thoughts in his heart, but heard countless complaints along the way.
"Oh, people in this clan are just different. The crime of beheading cannot be cured even if it is not cured. Huh~"
"Old General Zhang Tang is no longer the fierce general he was during the Zhao Dynasty. Everyone gets old sometimes."
"Come on, training these days isn't much easier than before, what's there to complain about?"
"My mother still expects me to serve in the military, but I don't see any hope of staying here."
"For the Forbidden Army, what chance do you have to make meritorious deeds? This is the place where the nobles come to gain seniority."
"For people like us, unless we have Nori-Chienaga's ability, we just want to get ahead and dream."
"I really hope Norianchang will come back and beat those clan members again."
"Shh~ you're crazy."

Tingwei Mansion
Mr. Chongquan was sitting at the main seat, and there were a bunch of people kneeling in the hall.
"What grievances do you have?"
The man kneeling first among them said: "Sir, I bought a hairpin for my mother-in-law that day. On my way home, I encountered a thief stealing in the street. I chased him along the street, but finally I ended up in a dead end alley.
At that time, there were only three of them present, and the villain couldn't tell the difference, so he reported it to the official and asked the adults to identify the murderer."
Mr. Chongquan stared at the four people below and shouted: "The thief in Qin Fa will have his arm cut off. Which one of you three is the thief, please call him immediately."
The three of them knelt down and spoke one after another:
"Sir, I'm not a thief. It's right near the back door of my house. I was returning from collecting firewood. The back door is the woodshed. If I were a thief and I was chased after stealing something, I couldn't run home."
"Sir, I just parked the cart in the alley and took a nap for a while. When I woke up, something happened. It was not a thief."
"Sir, I am not a thief. I just arrived in Xianyang for the first time and took the wrong road when I was looking for an inn. I didn't want to happen to this."
Mr. Chongquan immediately became interested when he heard this and stared at the last person, "Aren't you from Qin?"
"The villain is originally from Handan."
He immediately took action and said, "What a Zhao man, how dare you steal in our Daqin! Come on, drag him down and execute him."
"My lord, it's unjust! My lord, it's unjust!"
Mr. Chongquan shook his official uniform and shouted: "The next batch."
Seeing his subordinates bringing in two more men and an old woman, both dressed as ordinary civilians, he was a little impatient and said, "Why is it that such a small and humble man is solving the case again! What is the government doing? I am the Grand Qin Tingwei Mansion.
Are you just dealing with these trivial matters?"
The old woman knelt down and begged him, "Sir, if you can't make decisions for us, the people of Qin, how can we live our lives?!"
Mr. Chongquan waved his hand and said, "Such small cases are handled by the government itself. I, Tingwei Mansion, still have important responsibilities."
The old woman fell to the ground and cried: "Now that all the foreigners have left, no one in the government office is taking care of them, and thieves are everywhere in Xianyang City. You can't ignore it~"
Lord Chongquan was furious, "I want to spread rumors and disrupt our Qin Dynasty. I will drag them all down."
"promise."

Lieutenant's Mansion
The arsenal commander knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the lieutenant, "Sir Lieutenant, according to the law, these military crossbows can no longer be supplied to the army. Sir, if they are sent to the treasury like this, if they are found out later, all of us will
You have to lose your head, sir."
The lieutenant slammed the presented crossbow to the ground and pointed at the arsenal order, "Then what do you think we should do? We clearly followed Gongshu Qiu's drawings, so why are the errors too large?"
"Sir, all the skilled craftsmen among the foreign guests have left, especially the Gongshu family. The level of our Qin people's craftsmen is not enough to support the manufacture of machine-operated crossbows."
The words of the arsenal order made the lieutenant even more angry, "Foreigners, foreigners, without the foreigners, would our Great Qin be finished?! Let me investigate and find out which link is the problem. I will directly reduce him to a slave!"
"
"Sir, in two days, General Neishi Mengwu will send someone to pick up Lian Nu. How should we respond?"
The lieutenant suddenly panicked, his eyes trembled twice, and he grabbed the coat of the arsenal order, "Hide it from him! If he knows, the king will know. Give me priority to supply all the repeating crossbows in the treasury to Meng Wu."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The arsenal commander closed his eyes tightly and trembled all over, "What about the other military camps?"
"Forget it, deal with it first, find out the crux of the problem quickly, and make sure the production quality is restored."
"This...No."

Large canal construction site
Due to the existence of the machine beasts, the Qin State did not recruit too many civilians at once, but after only a few days of construction of the canal, various problems appeared among these machine beasts.
In the camp of the clan members responsible for the construction of the canal, a group of people had already started a quarrel.
"What's going on? Why isn't this mechanism beast easy to use?"
"That old guy Gongshuqiu really has no good intentions. This machine beast is useless!"
"It was fine a few days ago, why is it broken today?"
"Ying Yue, you are responsible for the maintenance of these machine beasts, and you have to bear the main responsibility."
"Why should I be responsible? Today there was a problem in the section of the project you supervised. It is you who are responsible."
"Fart, the person on duty today is not mine, what does it have to do with me?!"
"It's your turn to supervise the construction, but your people are not here. Isn't this a dereliction of duty on your part?"
"From the moment you handed it over to me, something went wrong, and the responsibility starts with you."
"Stop the quarrel, stop the quarrel! Now tens of thousands of people are on hold and the project is at a standstill. If the king blames it, no one among us can afford it."
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"Send a letter to the king, requesting to recruit more civilians. Could it be that our Qin Dynasty won't be able to repair this big canal if we don't have the machine beasts?"
"Okay, let's go see the king together tomorrow."
"That's it."
…
In the palace, Ying Zheng grasped the intelligence coming from everywhere, and the fire in his heart made his whole body hot. "If you fail to succeed, you will fail..."
He looked at the intelligence officers kneeling below him, held his forehead in thought for a while, and asked: "How is the public sentiment in Xianyang now?"
The following people reported: "Both the lieutenant's office responsible for public security and the government office dedicated to solving crimes are not led by wise people. There are already thieves breeding in Xianyang City, and the people are already feeling uneasy."
Ying Zheng threw up his sleeves and stood up, "Since Lord Shang's reform, our country, Qin, has strict laws and the security of the capital is the best in the world. As soon as the clan took charge, the people's hearts were shaken in just a few days..."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"How about over there at Hangu Pass?"
"The Imperial Master has famous sayings passed down through the ages, and foreigners are willing to stay in the Qin State. Even scholars from the six kingdoms are willing to go west to Han Valley."
Ying Zheng was overjoyed and asked curiously, "Sir, what other famous sayings do you have?"
"The villain has ordered someone to copy it."
"Send it up."
After Ying Zheng read it, he cheered excitedly, "Okay! With you here, sir, why should I, the Qin Dynasty, not be able to attract the world's top scholars!"
