At this moment, Ying Su spoke in a cold voice!
Hearing these words, all the alchemists and sorcerers were terrified. Everyone trembled and shivered!
Even Yu Hua Tian had to admire Ying Su's skill in managing people!
What is this?
This is a classic example of giving someone a slap and then a sweet date, and then giving them a blow to the head!
A combination of rewards and punishments!
Forcing them to do their jobs well.
Yu Hua Tian was still admiring him in his heart!
As Ying Su watched the backs of everyone leaving, he looked at the 500 points he had just obtained and smiled!
Yes!
His points have increased again!
And this is just the beginning!
Once he finds the saltpeter mine and can mass produce black powder, the rate at which points increase will be unimaginable!
In addition, there is also Zheng He's voyage!
This is a major event, and once this major event is accomplished, the rate at which points increase will be even faster!
You know, this is a great feat for the country and the people that can greatly increase food production!
Zheng He's voyage is also imminent. Now the large ships are ready, the relevant routes are also ready, and only a small amount of preparation work remains.
It is estimated that they can set sail within five days!
And besides that, there are also the points of the Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty!
Ying Su was delighted at the thought of the points he was about to receive.
But at the same time, he was also curious, where did Wang Bin's son Wang Li and Li Xin's son Li Chen go?
Logically speaking, they should have arrived in Pei County by now!
Ying Su guessed in his heart.
And in the distant Pei County.
Wang Li had indeed arrived here.
However, he had just arrived, and before he could even rest, he went directly to the Pei County government office!
Yes, his father Wang Bin had instructed him that this matter was ordered by the new emperor and must be handled properly!
So, he didn't delay at all along the way, he rode his horse day and night, and in just a few days, he arrived in Pei County!
Li Chen, who was with him, acted separately, going to Wei Nan to find the man named Han Xin, and by the way, also to quickly notify the whole country about the 100,000 gold reward for the capture of Zhang Liang!
Ying Su was almost determined to get these three heroes of the early Han Dynasty!
After entering the county government office, Wang Li didn't hesitate at all, he immediately called for the Pei County magistrate!
The Pei County magistrate knew Wang Li's identity, how dare he be the slightest bit negligent?
He provided all kinds of hospitality, and also invited Xiao He over!
"Your Excellency, I am Xiao He. May I ask what you want of me?"
Xiao He was full of confusion!
Wang Li didn't stand on ceremony either, he directly shouted, "I am here by order of the new emperor, to invite you, Fan Kui, Cao Can, Lu Wan, and the others to Xianyang!"
"Me? Fan Kui, Cao Can? Lu Wan?"
As soon as he spoke, Xiao He was shocked. He didn't understand why they were being summoned to Xianyang City at all!
But soon, he was shocked by another piece of news, "Wait...the new emperor?"
"Who is this...new emperor?"
He was deeply shocked, and the county magistrate was equally shocked!
Yes!
Ying Su's rebellion and ascension to the throne had not yet reached Pei County, they were completely unaware of this so-called new emperor.
For a moment, they even thought that Ying Zheng had died.
Just as the county magistrate was about to follow the traditional rites and cry out in mourning, he was interrupted by Wang Li's wave of his hand:
"Hold your horses, Emperor Shi Huang is in good health, but...Emperor Shi Huang has abdicated, and the new emperor is now the Sixth Prince, Ying Su!"
As he spoke, he was very cautious about Ying Su's rebellion, and he didn't mention it at all!
Because, old Wang Jian had warned him before. The people in Xianyang City know about the rebellion, but if Wang Li dares to spread a single word outside, he will definitely break Wang Li's legs!
So, Wang Li didn't dare to say a word!
Even if he spoke, it was Emperor Shi Huang who had passed the throne to the Sixth Prince!
"This..."
"So that's how it is!"
The county magistrate nodded. At this moment, he finally understood everything.
However...Xiao He felt a strange feeling.
Pass the throne to the Sixth Prince?
Why not pass it to the Eldest Prince, Fu Su?
Could it be...because of the Eldest Prince Fu Su's insistence on the system of enfeoffment?
Perhaps!
Emperor Shi Huang unified the country, his ambition was to create a unified empire. Anyone who mentioned the system of enfeoffment in front of him was seeking death.
Even the Eldest Prince Fu Su was no exception!
Xiao He sighed in his heart. He still felt sorry for the Eldest Prince!
Because...the Eldest Prince was kind and benevolent. If he had ascended the throne, he would have implemented benevolent rule.
And once benevolent rule was implemented, the people of the world would no longer suffer.
Can this Sixth Prince implement benevolent rule?
Xiao He was hesitant in his heart, but since the new emperor had ordered him to go to Xianyang, he didn't dare to delay. He immediately called everyone according to Wang Li's list and prepared to go to Xianyang City.
"No...you're all going to Xianyang City, what about me?"
At Si Shui Pavilion, Liu Bang panicked and became very anxious when he saw his good brothers leaving.
At the same time, he chased after Wang Li and shouted, "Your Excellency, may I ask if the new emperor has summoned me? I am Liu Ji, the pavilion master of Si Shui Pavilion! I am also a friend of Mr. Xiao, why don't you take me with you?"
"What do you think? Mr. Xiao?"
Liu Bang kept calling out. He could see that Xiao He was about to be promoted, and at this moment, he also wanted to go with him.
Xiao He frowned. It wasn't that he didn't want to take Liu Ji with him!
Although he was a commoner, he was a man of great righteousness. He was also a famous figure in the surrounding villages, and he had gathered many good brothers by relying on righteousness. Lu Wan, Fan Kui, and Cao Can were his ironclad brothers!
Moreover, he had secretly helped him a lot!
But...although the new emperor had summoned them, they didn't know the new emperor's character yet. If they suddenly brought an extra person with them, would the new emperor be unhappy?
He was still pondering over the matter, considering whether it was appropriate.
Lu Wan and Fan Kui joked:
"Your Excellency, you see, one sheep is herded, and a flock of sheep is also herded. There's no difference with one more of us, or one less of us. Just bring my big brother with you. It'll be good to have someone to look after each other along the way, right?"
They pleaded together, Wang Li's face turned cold, "The new emperor summoned those who he summoned, one more or one less is not allowed!"
"Get ready, say goodbye to your families and wives tonight, and tomorrow you will go to Xianyang with me!"
Wang Li finished speaking and turned to leave.
When Liu Ji heard these words, he immediately wilted.
And Xiao He took a long sigh of relief at the same time, and also persuaded him:
"Liu Ji, it's a good thing you're not going with us. The new emperor's character is unknown. What if you anger the emperor because of this? What will you do then?"
"But don't worry, if it really is a path to wealth and glory, we will not forget you. If I, Xiao He, can gain the favor of the new emperor, I will definitely recommend you, Liu Ji, to him!"
Liu Ji bowed, "If that's the case, I will thank you, Mr. Xiao. May you have a bright future!"
"And you, Fan Kui, Lu Wan, Xianyang is not like our Pei County, don't be reckless. When you enter Xianyang City, you must listen to Mr. Xiao!"
"Don't worry, big brother, we will listen to Mr. Xiao!"
Fan Kui and Lu Wan bowed.
Then they dispersed.
The next day, Liu Ji saw off Xiao He and the others. Although he said flattering words, his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
He had been thinking about it all night, even if he was not as good as Xiao He, what was he worse than Cao Can, Fan Kui, and Lu Wan?
Why did the new emperor summon even Cao Can, Lu Wan, but not him, Liu Ji?
