Chapter 1173: Eternal Foundation, Once and for All

Ying Ying Zi Ye pondered for a while and looked up at Ying Zheng.

"Then has Father Emperor considered how large a city to build?"

Ying Zheng smiled.

He had asked the right question.

"Of course I have considered it; the new city to be built certainly cannot be smaller than Xianyang City."

"Otherwise, if the population surges again in the future, would we have to build a new capital again?"

"This project is prepared to start in the near future; once the craftsmen return, construction can begin."

"The craftsmen building the Great Wall will return soon."

Ying Zheng had long wanted to build a new city, but unfortunately, most of the craftsmen had gone to the northern border.

The construction of this new city could only be delayed.

Building a new city at the foot of Lishan could echo Xianyang City from afar.

Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled.

He didn't expect Brother Zheng to have already planned all this.

But building a new city would take a considerable amount of time.

Unless many people participated together.

Otherwise, this project was destined to be long-term.

However—if the million laborers building the Great Wall came to help,

then it should be completed very quickly.

Brother Zheng's idea was to build a new city.

But he had another better method.

If it could be implemented, it should be better than building a new city.

Thinking of this, Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at General Zhang Han.

"General Zhang, please help me get some paper and a brush."

Although General Zhang Han didn't quite understand, he quickly brought some paper and a brush.

Under the confused gaze of Ying Zheng and the other two,

Ying Ying Zi Ye began to write and draw on the rice paper.

In a moment, he had drawn many things on the rice paper.

The few of them looked closely.

It turned out that two places were drawn on the rice paper.

One was Lishan, and the other was Xianyang City.

There was an open space of several dozen miles in between.

"Father Emperor, you want to build a new city here to echo Xianyang City from afar, right?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye drew a circle at the foot of Lishan to represent the city.

And to the east was Xianyang City.

This city was considered to be sandwiched between Xianyang City and Lishan.

It was just a bit far from Xianyang City. ===== CHAPTER 1175 =====
