He was so scared that he knelt down immediately, and the others also knelt down quickly. If they really dared to make comments about the position of crown prince, the First Emperor would definitely be the first to kill them.
They all watched Ying Zheng ascend to the throne and conquer the six kingdoms to unify the world. How could they dare to point fingers at the First Emperor?
"Your Highness, I dare not. The matter of the crown prince is a state affair and should be decided by Your Majesty." Ying Lian trembled slightly. This prince was too scary.
"Haha, now that you know, you still dare to threaten me?" Zhao Qingrui sneered.
"Your Highness, please forgive me." Several people said hurriedly. At this time, they also knew that they had spoken out of turn.
Zhao Qingrui is not Fusu. She will not be kind to everyone. She is as decisive as Your Majesty.
If it were Fusu, they could still use moral blackmail.
It’s a pity that she is not Fusu.
"Okay, I'm too lazy to bother with you. You can solve your own problems in the future. Go back. The Zong Zhengling is left here. There are many hidden dangers in the royal family, and my father also wants to make changes." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.
Zhao Qingrui's words immediately made everyone's eyes widen.
However, at this time they did not dare to act rudely in front of Zhao Qingrui and could only retreat obediently.
Zong Zhengling stayed, feeling extremely uneasy.
After Gongzi Yuan and the others left, Zong Zhengling looked at Zhao Qingrui cautiously.
"I wonder how Your Highness intends to reform the royal family?"
"What do you think the royal family means to our Great Qin?" Zhao Qingrui looked at the Chief of the Zongzhengling.
"The royal family is the royal family's relatives and the loyal supporters of Your Majesty." After thinking for a while, Zong Zhengling said seriously.
"What the Minister of the Imperial Clan said makes sense. They are the emperor's followers. But now, the Minister of the Imperial Clan has also seen that all the members of the Imperial Clan are blood-sucking termites lying on the Qin Empire." Zhao Qingrui said with a serious expression.
Zong Zhengling widened his eyes and looked at Zhao Qingrui in disbelief. He didn't expect her to say such a thing.
If these words were heard by the royal family members, they would probably be outraged and would try every means to pull her down from the position of crown prince.
"You have also seen the royal family members today. They are all supported by the national treasury and have been turned into good-for-nothings. After several assessments of officials, has any one of them passed?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Zong Zhengling. Among these royal family members, only Zong Zhengling had some ability, otherwise he would have been eliminated after repeated assessments.
Zhao Qingrui's words successfully silenced Zong Zhengling. This was indeed the truth.
"Our Great Qin has been striving for the legacy of six generations, and a genius like my father has emerged, allowing the Great Qin to further expand and become stronger. Although these members of the royal family have contributed to this, most of them have relied on my father to reach this point."
"These people are now supported by the entire Qin Dynasty, but they indulge in pleasure and have no desire to make progress. What's the difference between them and pigs in a pen?" Zhao Qingrui said in a cold voice.
Zong Zhengling looked at Zhao Qingrui in horror. He didn't expect that she would compare the royal family to pigs.
However, Zhao Qingrui's words made him think more. It was indeed the case that these royal family members had been spoiled. They did not need to make progress, and the country could provide them with food and drink for the rest of their lives.
Your Majesty is so powerful, and the Crown Prince Zhao Qingrui is not bad either. Everyone in the court is supported by her. People from the royal family have no chance of taking the throne. There is no need for them to fight, and they all just give in and enjoy themselves.
This series of reasons has created the current corrupt royal family.
There was a flash of bitterness in Zong Zhengling's eyes. He knew that what Zhao Qingrui said was right.
"I wonder how Your Highness would like to rectify this?" Zong Zhengling sighed, his voice dejected.
"I have to think about everything. What's the point of having you officials? You should come up with a plan for this matter and let me see it when you're done." Zhao Qingrui didn't have any good ideas for the time being, but that didn't stop her from making trouble.
As the Minister of the Imperial Clan, Ying Lian had the obligation to persuade these members of the imperial clan to make progress, but unfortunately he failed to do so.
Let him worry about these things. If he doesn't come up with a complete plan for her, someone else will be appointed as the Chief of the Imperial Clan.
Zong Zhengling didn't know what Zhao Qingrui was planning. When he heard Zhao Qingrui's order, he felt bitter. If he did this, he would definitely offend everyone in the clan.
If he doesn't do this, the leader should be replaced.
Thinking of this, Zong Zhengling shuddered. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to throw him into the abyss.
"Your Majesty, I obey your command." In the end, he agreed honestly.
Those members of the royal family were unreliable. What could he do? For the sake of his own future, he had to bite the bullet and do it.
"Of course I have confidence in Zong Zhengling's abilities. I will ask Zong Zhengling to pay more attention to this matter when the time comes." Zhao Qingrui looked at Zong Zhengling with satisfaction.
After sending Zong Zhengling away, Zhao Qingrui stretched herself and decided to let Zong Zhengling deal with those members of the royal family. She didn't have time to fight with them.
In the evening, Zhao Qingrui was in a good mood after learning the news of the victory of the battle from his father.
It happened that the next day was a day off, so Zhao Qingrui took Lu Zhi and Wang Jian out.
In just a few days, Xianyang City was almost demolished.
Looking at the Xianyang City where the ruins were being cleared, Zhao Qingrui felt emotional.
But she was still very happy. With hundreds of thousands of prisoners working together to build Xianyang, how long would it take to build the new city of Xianyang? It certainly wouldn't take much time.
With her strong support, the treatment of those prisoners can be said to be quite good. They have enough food and drink, and can save some wages. Once the construction of the new city of Xianyang is completed, they will be able to get rid of their status as prisoners and obtain household registration as commoners.
With this carrot dangling in front of them, they were extremely diligent and couldn't wait to finish building the city.
