“…”
Hearing the noisy voices of his ministers, Ying Yuan knew very well that the best time for him to lead the army in person had arrived.
"I don't know how to stabilize the State of Jin."
He asked.
Qin Hui responded, "Your Majesty, I think it is advisable to send envoys to negotiate peace with the State of Jin.
"We only need to pay a small amount of silver to temporarily stabilize the Jin army's edge, and then we can buy time for our army to win over the Chu State."
He believed that the emperor's current focus was on the State of Chu.
However, he had no idea that Ying Yuan didn't care which country was attacking; what he cared about was that someone was attacking.
As long as someone attacks, the Qin Dynasty will have the chance to perish.
"Give silver, women, and land, and make the Qin Dynasty bow down to you. Do you think the Jin State will withdraw its troops?
Even if they really do withdraw, then...
Prime Minister Qin, I wonder if this silver, this woman, was given by you or by me?
As soon as the words fell.
Qin Hui was frightened and immediately kowtowed and knelt, saying, "Your Majesty...Your Majesty knows I am wrong!"
In fact, from a political point of view, Qin Hui's method is a good one.
After all, if Qin were to challenge two countries at the same time, the price it would pay in the end would be far heavier than paying some silver.
Because he also guessed that the reason why Jin State, which had no interest in Qin State in the past, wanted to invade Qin State was only because of some conflicts within their country.
If we give them some money to ease their internal conflicts and divert public attention, we can avoid a war. Why not do it?
Ying Yuan slowly stood up and ate another green plum. After chewing it, he said frankly: "The fact that the Great Qin has been able to survive to this day is definitely not based on kowtow to other countries.
I have silver, but this silver is the hard work of the people of Qin. I cannot just hand over the people's silver to the State of Jin.
I have women, too, but women from the Great Qin must never be married to foreign countries and be bullied by them. Women from the Great Qin can only be paired with men from the Great Qin.
I have more land, but that land is where the people of Great Qin rely on for survival. If I give that land to Jin, where will the people of Great Qin live in the future?"
At this point, all the ministers fell into deep thought.
Seeing this, Ying Yuan continued, "I have said this many years ago: as long as I live, I will never marry into foreign countries, pay indemnities, or tribute, and I will never cede the land left by our ancestors.
"Whether it's Chu or Jin, if they want to come, let them come. I won't give Qin's land, women, or silver to them. If they want it, let them come and rob it."
"Old Qin, let us face the national crisis together."
Negotiate peace? Pay compensation?
This must not be done.
He hopes to take advantage of this wave to destroy his country.
Therefore, the words must be spoken with sufficient force.
Only then can we dispel their idea of negotiating peace with the State of Jin.
However, what Ying Yuan did not expect was that his words completely aroused the enthusiasm of all civil and military officials.
Everyone began to say those eight words in unison: "Let's bravely fight the national crisis together, old Qin."
These eight words not only echoed in every corner of the palace.
Even in Xianyang City, one seemed to be able to hear the "echo".
I believe that it won’t be long before what Ying Yuan said will spread all over the country.
To unite the military and civilians and share the same hatred for the enemy.
On the Fengtai Pavilion.
Daji looked at Ying Yuan with eyes full of pride and pride, and she couldn't help but murmured:
"Chuan'er, Ying'er, do you see this? This is the Emperor of the Great Qin, your mother's husband, your father.
He is also the most resolute person in our Great Qin. With your father here, our Great Qin will surely turn danger into safety.
Perhaps, only a Majesty like this could make so many outstanding people willingly submit to him."
