Chapter 693: Chapter 282: Ying Zheng: When the World Is Unified, You’ll Understand!

Hearing Ying Zheng’s words,

Zhao Feng couldn’t help but feel a bit wistful: ”Your Majesty has indeed arranged everything properly for me.”

”However, ”

”Now, I am at a high position, above one person and below ten thousand.”

”The road ahead is not easy to tread.”

Zhao Feng said with emotion.

”What?”

”Do you think I will discard you after use?”

Ying Zheng’s expression slightly changed.

”That’s not it.”

Zhao Feng shook his head.

The abilities of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and his grace towards his ministers, have been documented in history.

After he unified the world, he never killed any meritorious minister.

Each one was treated with heavy grace, no matter how high their position.

”Now, there is only Qi left in Shenzhou.”

”After destroying Qi, the force of martial virtue will be temporarily eased, and then it will be the time for the civil officials to shine.”

”At this moment, ”

”There will likely be many in the court who cannot stand me.” Zhao Feng said with a slight smile.

”With me here, what can they do to you?” Ying Zheng said protectively.

”While Your Majesty is here, that’s true.”

”But what about the future?” Zhao Feng smiled.

At this moment,

he decided to directly make things clear to Ying Zheng.

Hearing this,

Ying Zheng understood and smiled instantly: ”Do you think my successor will be someone incompetent and without virtue?”

”Your Majesty’s sons, I do not know them well.”

”Therefore, ”

”Today, I ask for one thing from Your Majesty.” Zhao Feng said with a serious expression.

”Speak.” Ying Zheng gestured, wanting to see what Zhao Feng intended to do.

”After destroying Qi, I wish to lead troops to Baiyue, to subdue it.” Zhao Feng immediately said.

Garrisoning Baiyue.

Zhao Feng had naturally thought about this for a long time.

”Garrisoning Baiyue?” Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng rather oddly.

”To let the Grand Commandant of Qin guard the barbaric lands of Baiyue, do you want the world to think that I cannot tolerate capable people?” Ying Zheng smiled faintly.

”Your Majesty, ”

”This is my voluntary request.”

”It has nothing to do with Your Majesty.”

”Strictly speaking, Baiyue is also a part of the Land of the Divine Continent.”

”Moreover, the millions of people in Baiyue are not foreign tribes but are the same lineage of Chiyou, sharing the same roots with the Huaxia people. Conquering Baiyue and incorporating the Baiyue people into Qin, allowing them to have civilization, is a great undertaking, benefiting all future generations.” Zhao Feng said solemnly.

”This matter, let’s discuss it later.”

Ying Zheng gestured, decisively refusing Zhao Feng’s request.

As a joke,

sending Zhao Feng to garrison a place, especially a barbaric land like Baiyue, how could Ying Zheng bear it.

Even if Zhao Feng were not his son, Ying Zheng would never do such a thing.

”Your Majesty, ”

”With Qi destroyed, there will be no wars in Shenzhou, and I cannot stay idle in Xianyang.”

”I can continue to expand territories for Qin.” Zhao Feng spoke again.

At this point, he was a bit anxious.

Garrisoning Baiyue was crucial for his later plans to wait for the end of Qin and achieve his ambition of kingly dominion.

As long as he controlled Baiyue, Zhao Feng was confident in turning it into his stronghold, just waiting for the end of Qin. With his direct control over the camp, within a few years, he could sweep the world.

Zhao Feng was very confident.

”The matter of territorial expansion, let’s talk about it later.”

”For now, you stay put for me.”

”And when the world is truly unified, perhaps things will change.”

”Maybe a big surprise awaits you.” Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng with a meaningful smile.

”What big surprise could there be, could it be you would name me Crown Prince and give the throne to me?” Zhao Feng glanced, silently mocking in his heart.

”You prefer to garrison Baiyue rather than ask me for a throne.”

”Do you think that with your military achievements you still can’t obtain a throne?” Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

”Your Majesty has no intention to implement the feudal system, so what use would that be to me?” Zhao Feng replied calmly.

The drawbacks of the feudal system are thoroughly understood by Ying Zheng.

And naturally, Zhao Feng also had thoughts about it.

If the feudal system were truly implemented, the situation at the end of Qin would not be right, and Zhao Feng feared it would take a longer time to sweep away obstacles.

Since it can’t be changed, let nature take its course.

”You see through it quite clearly.” Ying Zheng smiled.

He was naturally very satisfied with Zhao Feng’s attitude.

In short,

the feudal system!

Ying Zheng would definitely not implement it again; the future of Qin is based on the county system.

All power would be in his hands.

Ying Zheng did not want his Qin to end up like the former Zhou Dynasty, dispersing power and eventually leading to the downfall of the state.

Therefore,

Zhao Feng never expected to be enfeoffed as a king, as Ying Zheng’s decision was set, and nothing would change it.

”Therefore, Your Majesty.”

”You should still allow me to go to Baiyue to garrison, if not, the Northern Frontier would do.”

”Leading troops to attack is more suitable for me.” Zhao Feng’s eyes flickered as he spoke again.

Therefore,

he still hadn’t given up.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng amused: ”You are so eager to lead troops?”

”I come from the military; leading soldiers to fight is naturally my duty.” Zhao Feng said righteously.

”Alright, since you are so willing, ”

”After the world is unified, see the situation first, then decide whether to go to Baiyue.” Ying Zheng smiled.

”Don’t worry, Your Majesty.”

”My intentions will not change.”

Zhao Feng immediately replied.

”Wonderful.”

”The King of Qin has finally relented.”

”Once the world is unified, I will go to Baiyue to develop and grow.”

”When the chaos of the Qin’s end comes, the forces I have accumulated can sweep the world.”

Zhao Feng thought happily in his heart.

”This young man.”

”To garrison Baiyue, he can really think of it.”

”When the world is unified, I’ll bring your mother, and you’ll know who you are.”
