Chapter 1569

"Let's have a few drinks together when we have time later; I have some fine wine."

Han Xin revealed a look that everyone understood.

Meng Tian responded with a smile, not paying much mind to the matter.

A small drink or whatever was of no importance.

The main thing was to handle everything the Prince had spoken of well.

"Then this matter is left to you."

"I will give you two hundred thousand soldiers."

"The matter of organizing the merchants shall be left to the Imperial Clan to handle."

"Once you are prepared, this Prince will send you on your way."

"As for the merchant caravans of the Peacock Dynasty, they shall be organized from the common folk and allowed to proceed on their own."

"The people of the Peacock Dynasty will welcome them very much and will not dare to make things difficult for them."

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at Han Xin and some of the leaders of the Imperial Clan.

He saw them all nodding vigorously, their faces full of joy.

For the Great Qin of today, two hundred thousand soldiers was not a large number.

It was more than enough to protect the merchants, and perhaps even a bit of a waste.

However, this could also be considered a two-pronged approach.

With so many soldiers following, the journey to the Western Regions was destined to be smooth sailing.

By letting the merchants go to the Western Regions, these soldiers would also be their powerful guardians.

It would be fine if Modu and the others were not there, but if they were in the Western Regions, a battle was destined to be fought.

Ying Ying Zi Ye did not hold the tiny Western Regions in his eyes.

Taking them down was only a matter of time.

"Then let this matter be decided as such."

"Do you all have any other matters?"

Qin Shi Huang sat on the dragon throne.

Seeing that matters were mostly discussed and a plan had been given, he considered this settled.

This matter could be considered to have come to an end.

The officials were silent for a while.

They had come here wanting to see if the housing issue could cost a little less money.

Now it seemed there was no hope for the time being; if Your Majesty did not loosen his stance, they had no chance.

Aside from this matter, there was nothing else for now.

Recently, the various commanderies and counties of Great Qin had not reported anything difficult to handle.

The natural disasters in the various commanderies and counties they were told to keep an eye on simply did not exist.

Nowadays, every commandery and county enjoyed favorable weather and a peaceful, prosperous nation.

It did not look at all like any natural disaster was about to descend.

"Since you have no other matters, then withdraw first."

"Complete the matters the Crown Prince just entrusted to you quickly as well."

"Ying Zi Ye, stay behind; everyone else, withdraw."

Qin Shi Huang issued an order to dismiss the guests.

Seeing this, the officials bowed one after another and withdrew.

Ying Ying Zi Ye was somewhat puzzled.

He did not know what Brother Zheng wanted to do by keeping him behind at this time.

Very quickly—

The officials left the Son of Heaven's Hall one after another.

Only Qin Shi Huang and General Zhang Han remained.

"Father Emperor, I wonder what other matter there is?"

Seeing that everyone had left, Ying Ying Zi Ye asked in confusion.

Could there be some other important matter?

In any case, he could not think of any matter.

"Ying Zi Ye, would it be alright to copy a complete version of that formation map of yours?"

Qin Shi Huang did not stand on ceremony and asked for it directly.

However, he did not ask for the original, only wanting to copy a map.

He also knew the original was incomparably important and could not be handed over casually.

"Copying a complete map is, of course, no problem."

"I wonder what Father Emperor wants to do with this map?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye could not quite understand.

Now that they had just taken the Peacock Dynasty, could it be that Brother Zheng wanted to strike at other places again?

"I want to study it first, and then take them all down in one fell swoop."

"I remember there aren't many countries left."

"I hope that in my lifetime, I can plant the banners of Great Qin across all powers."

"Let every place in the world where there are people be incorporated into the territory of Great Qin!"

Qin Shi Huang's voice was resonant and powerful, vaguely containing excitement.

It was as if this scene had already appeared before his eyes.

"So that is how it is."

Ying Ying Zi Ye understood.

Brother Zheng's determination to unify the world remained.

Before, he was always thinking about unifying the six states.

Now that he had unified the six states.

He discovered that outside of Great Qin, there were even more countries and powers.

The world was also far larger than he had seen.

Brother Zheng then gave birth to the determination to unify the world.

Now this ambition could be considered completely exposed.

"Father Emperor, please take it."

"These are all small matters."

Ying Ying Zi Ye took out the folded map.

When Qin Shi Huang saw the formation map, a golden light flashed in his eyes.

This map was extraordinary.

Qin Shi Huang took the map, spread it out on the table, and examined it carefully.

Within it, the territory of Great Qin came into view.

He had seen the original appearance of this map.

The borders were distinct in color, and each region was clear.

The regions shown were all separated by color.

But now, everything on this formation map had changed.

Regions like the Great Xiongnu, Dayuezhi, Donghu, and Fuyu had all been incorporated into the territory of Great Qin.

They had perfectly merged into the map plate of Great Qin.

The colors had become consistent with the map of Great Qin.

The Great Qin plate had expanded countless times because of this.

Even the map of the Peacock Dynasty had been incorporated into the Great Qin plate.

On the current formation map, the Great Qin map occupied a large portion.

There were still a few maps of other colors remaining.

Such as Bactria, Parthia, the Seleucid Empire, the Ptolemaic Kingdom, Carthage, and Rome.
