Zhao Xin glanced at the old man and said: You are absolutely right.

If it is just one or two disasters, then that is normal. After all, who hasn't experienced a disaster?

But now that so many major events have occurred in our Great Qin Empire at once, it is definitely not normal.

Something big must be happening.

After Zhao Xin said this, the faces of many ministers in the court changed drastically.

If Zhao Xin admitted this, it would mean that he, the emperor, was really wrong, which is something unimaginable.

You should know that there has been a very classic saying since ancient times, that is, the emperor will never make mistakes, and the ones who make mistakes are the ministers below and others.

If the emperor admitted his mistake, it would be a huge event that would turn the world upside down.

Could it be that their Emperor, an outlier in the world of emperors, this powerful monarch who doesn't care about titles like tyrant and foolish ruler, is really going to admit his mistake at this time?

After Zhao Xin pondered for a while, he thought: It is definitely not normal for so many disasters to occur at once. Someone must be causing trouble.

I will send people to search immediately. There must be a traitor in our Great Qin Empire.

There must be someone who wants to stir up trouble in our Great Qin Empire!

If we don't catch these guys, the disaster of our Great Qin Empire will never stop.

After Zhao Xin said this, all the ministers were shocked. They all thought that Zhao Xin was about to admit his mistake, but they didn't expect that Zhao Xin actually thought of a traitor.

But what kind of traitor could cause such a disaster?

Apart from droughts, whether it is plague, locusts, or rat plagues, are these things that can only be done by a few people?

Of course, if it was the previous Zhao Xin, he would not believe such a thing, but after coming into contact with Mengwei, he felt that it was not impossible.

Because the country that Mengwei belongs to is indeed a very powerful country and they have endless means.

If they want to defeat others, they don't necessarily have to rely on the army but can also rely on other methods.

When Zhao Xin called these ministers together, he actually didn't discuss this matter with them at all, but just wanted to announce something to them.

Then a large number of Jinyiwei quietly traveled to every corner of the Qin Empire, and soon they captured a lot of people.

A few days later, there were crowds of people again, and as many as five or six hundred people were brought before Zhao Xin.

These guys were all unkempt and dressed very strangely, and each of them even had a terrifying aura.

These guys are the ones sent by Mengwei!

They are able to create things like locusts and rats because they have special methods.

Zhao Xin glanced at the guys present and said coldly, "Who on earth is that guy who can create locusts?

"As a result, when he said this, everyone's attention was focused on a few people, and Zhao Xin basically understood who they were.

So he pointed at these people and said, "Except for these guys, take the rest out and chop them up!

Regarding this matter, Zhao Xin had no room for hesitation at all.

Because these guys who could cause direct disasters to their Great Qin Empire didn't need to be kept alive and wasted food, they could just be chopped down directly.

As for these guys who can create locusts, Zhao Xin felt that they were still a little useful, so he kept them.

These guys were wearing very strange clothes, and the strips of straw looked like big locusts.

But these guys didn’t seem to intend to surrender to Zhao Xin: You dog emperor of the Qin Empire, we are mighty warriors, we will not surrender to you, it will be useless even if you kill us!

It will be of no use even if you torture us severely.

Zhao Xin looked at these guys with an evil smile: Don't worry, I won't beat you or do anything to you, you will naturally work hard for me in the future.

He waved his hand and asked the Jinyiwei to take these guys away.

The Jinyiwei people can be said to have endless ways to make anyone surrender. Some of these methods were developed by the Jinyiwei people themselves, and some were taught by Zhao Xin.

There is no need to worry at all!

Zhao Xin said to Jinyiwei No. 8 next to him: These guys cannot die. Since they are so good at producing locusts, let them keep producing locusts. Our farms will rely on them in the future.

Of course, Zhao Xin actually didn't believe that these guys could really keep producing locusts through their own means.

But maybe there are always some strange people and things in this world, so Zhao Xin will have to see the real effect of these guys later. If they really have that ability, then these guys are special talents. If he doesn't squeeze out their abilities, Zhao Xin feels that he will never give up.

By using the locusts made by these guys to raise chickens and ducks, they can provide their people with more nutritious meat and eggs.

These things are not particularly serious to him!

Then Zhao Xin issued another order, which was to order the garrison in the far north to retreat.

The northernmost land is now the North Sea, which is the border area for the Qin Empire.

If the army retreats, it would mean handing over such important territory to others.

Because those guys from Mengwei are not good people. As long as they see a good place with no one stationed there, they will definitely occupy it.

In the North Sea, the second prince was sitting on a warship, still investigating the situation at sea.

This guy is the younger brother of the current emperor Mengwei. Although he is still called the second prince, he is actually of the same generation as the emperor.

This guy, despite his noble status, still personally investigated on the sea. Looking at his appearance, those who didn't know him would think he was just an ordinary general.

This guy always pays attention to the situation on the sea!

In the past few months, the Qin Empire and Mengwei have basically occupied half of the North Sea.

But now they suddenly discovered that the soldiers of the Qin Empire, who had been active in the North Sea for a long time, had actually retreated at this time.

Moreover, the sea was empty and nothing could be seen.

The second prince was a very cautious person. He even secretly sent people to the border area of ​​the Qin Empire to see what was going on.

But he soon discovered that apart from some smuggling ships, there were no warships of the Qin Empire on the sea.
