At the court meeting a few days later, Ying Yuan announced it publicly.
He is going to inspect the south of the Yangtze River.
Many ministers did not quite understand this.
Now that the war has just ended, everything needs to be rebuilt. There are many matters in the court that still need Your Majesty's attention.
If he were to go on an inspection tour to the south of the Yangtze River, wouldn't he neglect the affairs of state?
Your Majesty is such a wise ruler, how could you do such a foolish thing?
So they all felt that this matter was not that simple.
Start to imagine like crazy.
Finally, a way to arrange a travel at public expense for Ying Yuan was found.
Since the invasion of Great Chu, all the northern towns have been devastated by war.
It will be difficult to ease the situation without a few years of hard work.
The south, on the other hand, was hardly affected.
The Jiangnan area is even known as the granary of the Qin Dynasty.
Your Majesty is touring Jiangnan. Could it be that you want to take advantage of Jiangnan to quickly rebuild some important cities in the north?
Furthermore.
During the war, people in the South were in unrest, and riots of varying degrees broke out in many places.
After all, at that time, everyone felt that the country was about to perish.
Those wealthy businessmen took the opportunity to interfere.
This deepens public resentment.
To this day, public grievances in some places in Jiangnan have not been completely eliminated.
Your Majesty, when you tour Jiangnan, I'm afraid you also want to go for this, right?
In this way, inspecting Jiangnan at this critical juncture is not a foolish act.
On the contrary, it is very wise.
Cai Jing was the first to bow and clasp his fists, saying, "Your Majesty's decision to inspect Jiangnan is truly well-intentioned. However, now that Your Majesty is gone, I wonder who should be sent to govern the country?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Yuan came up with a plan and slowly said, "Prime Minister Cai will temporarily oversee state affairs, with Minister of War Cao Cao assisting him, and the Empress will govern from behind the curtain."
Letting Cai Jing govern the country was to allow him to bring out his greatest attributes as a treacherous minister.
It is also easier to understand why Cao Cao assisted the regent.
As long as the two of them unite, it will be entirely possible for them to undermine his power when he returns from his inspection tour of Jiangnan.
As for letting Daji rule the country from behind the scenes, it was mainly to add some achievements of being incompetent and ruining the country to himself.
Why not let Empress Dowager Lu Zhi rule the country from behind the scenes?
I have said it many times, but unfortunately the other party is unwilling.
Since you don't want to, then I won't force you.
When the ministers heard Ying Yuan’s arrangement, they felt it was reasonable.
First of all, Cai Jing was already a loyal supporter of the emperor.
And Cao Cao was the emperor's man.
As for Queen Daji, there is no need to mention her.
With these three people around, when Your Majesty returns to Xianyang, power will not fall into the hands of others.
What's more, Cai Jing has a high reputation among civil officials.
Cao Cao enjoyed great prestige among the military generals.
With the civil and military officials joining forces, who would dare to cause chaos while Your Majesty is away from Xianyang?
The key is that no one is tired of living!
Plus there is a queen who can balance the two.
This regent team is as perfect as it can be.
Your Majesty is wise!
...
When Daji knew that she was arranged to rule the country from behind the scenes.
It was both surprising and joyful.
She was very grateful for Ying Yuan's trust.
Since Your Majesty has placed this heavy burden on me.
Then, I must ensure that His Majesty has no worries at all.
Thinking of this, Daji called Wei Zhongxian to her palace.
He was instructed to keep a close eye on the movements of the ministers while His Majesty was away from the capital.
Three days later.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard Office was established.
At present, the total number of staff in all the garrisons is less than 300.
They are all good fighters selected from the military.
In addition, there are some people in the martial arts world who have special skills.
During this tour, Ying Yuan took all the Jinyiwei with him.
There are also 50,000 elite soldiers and generals.
Ying Yuan also called Pan Feng, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Guo Jia, Jing Ke and others.
Logically speaking, the emperor's tour was a great opportunity for assassination.
But the purpose of his tour this time was not to be assassinated by others.
But to find something to do.
As we all know, Jiangnan is home to many wealthy business families.
The Qin Dynasty was founded on the basis of aristocratic families.
If the Qin Dynasty wants to cause chaos, the aristocratic families must be in chaos first.
Therefore, this time, Ying Yuan brought his army to find trouble with the major families.
He just wanted them to collectively hold a grudge against the imperial court.
...
On the day of leaving Xianyang, all civil and military officials came to see him off.
The news that Ying Yuan was going to inspect Jiangnan was spreading to every corner of the Qin territory at an extremely fast speed.
Almost no one said that he went there for pleasure.
On the contrary, many people said that his move was intended to appease the people of the world and bring peace to the world.
Let the plans of those with ulterior motives fail.
After all, it's just a folk rumor.
Nature is as outrageous as it can be.
Their first stop was Dengzhou.
Along the way, Ying Yuan listened to Jing Ke talk about many things about the martial arts world.
It is said that in the present Qin Dynasty, there are five major martial arts holy places.
They are Shaolin Temple in Songshan, Zhenwu Temple in Wudang, Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain, Shushan Sword School, and Mo Men in Jiangnan.
In addition to these five martial arts holy places, there are also some first-class sects.
In the city of Dengzhou, there is a first-class sect called the Thunderbolt Sect.
It is said that the Thunderbolt Sect has some connection with the Mo Sect.
The Mohist School has a close relationship with Mohism, one of the most famous schools of thought in the world.
The Thunderbolt Sect specializes in making hidden weapons and selling them to fellow gangsters to make money.
Ying Yuan was quite curious about the happenings in the martial arts world, so he asked Jing Ke, "Are there any levels of martial artists in this world?"
