Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention

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 !"

When facing 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 recruited!" Zhang Beichen directly objected, saying: "We have just issued a decree to rest the people. If we recruit soldiers now, we will not only waste farming, but also break the trust of the people! The gains outweigh the losses!"

"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 by this?" 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 established, and the new law has not yet been fully popularized in the Qin State. How can Zhang Beichen have the strength to check the population within his old clan?

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

"The Prime Minister's words are very true!" Before Bai Jiayi and others could refute Zhang Beichen, Ying Yiren made a decision directly, saying: "The Qin Kingdom fights 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!"

"Conscription will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the people. If the old, weak, sick and disabled go to the battlefield, it will only make the people of Yiqu 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 the military exploits they made 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. She meant nothing more than to say that the widows are not ignorant of the fact that you are hiding your secrets, but you 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 off 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 the country of 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."

"I would like to send four hundred servants!"

...

The courtiers expressed their opinions one after another, and soon gathered nearly 10,000 people to form a reinforcement army to support the border.

Zhang Beichen secretly laughed 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 then ordered: "Che Yang, I ordered you to immediately form a reinforcement army 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 last general obeys orders!" Che Yang set off immediately.

...

A reinforcement army of ten thousand people soon drove to the border between Qin State and Yiqu State.

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

As for Qin, there is currently no strength to suppress Yiqu. 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.

On Yiqu's side, it seemed that Qin's strength was uncertain, so no large army was sent 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.

And 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.

...

At 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, it was a message from Wei Yao.

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

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

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

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 unclear. I'm afraid he wants to attack Qin." Zhang Beichen said helplessly.

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

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

As for the powerful Wei State, King Yiqu did not dare to provoke him at all, but instead expressed his submission and offered tribute and gifts.

Zhang Beichen: "Wei Wang, don't say such things that provoke me and 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: "It's big, white and round!"

Wei Yao: "?? This tofu is made of cubes!"

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

Zhang Beichen smiled secretly, Ying Yi was not so stingy.

Wei Yao continued to seduce him: "Come to Wei State quickly, 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 tempting. 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 time the simulation must come to me, I dote on you!"

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