Chapter 593
Ying Ying Zi Ye boarded the imperial carriage and waved at Wang Ben and the others.
"Once this batch of auspicious crops is mature and harvested, I will permit you to go to war!"
"Let's go, we are returning to Xianyang City."
Ying Ying Zi Ye lowered the curtains, and the carriage began to set off in the direction of Xianyang City.
He left behind generals like Wang Ben and Li Xin in a daze.
"What did His Highness just say?"
Li Xin looked at Wang Ben beside him with a bewildered expression.
"His Highness seemed to say he would let us go to the battlefield to fight?"
Wang Ben was also somewhat uncertain, truly doubting if there was something wrong with his ears.
They had not fought on the battlefield for a long time, and their bodies were starting to rust.
With Great Qin stable now, what wars were left to fight?
As generals, they loved charging at the enemy and establishing merit.
But ever since the Great Qin unification, there had been no wars in any region.
Where else could they fight?
They did not know.
"I heard it clearly; His Highness said he would let us go to war!"
Zhang Jiao's tone was firm, his voice somewhat excited.
He, too, had not fought in a long time and had almost forgotten what that feeling was like.
Staying in the Lantian Military Camp all day, he felt as if he were in retirement.
Now that he heard they still had a chance to go to war, how could he not be excited?
"War! As long as this batch of rice matures and is harvested, we can go to war!"
Li You also became excited.
This time they were stirred up, vowing to protect the rice well.
They looked forward to the rice maturing and being harvested.
By that time, the sweet potatoes and potatoes would also be ready for a harvest.
If there were a war, they could fight for as long as they wanted; logistics and grain would simply not be a problem.
This news was truly heart-stirring for these generals.
They did not know where they would be fighting, but since His Highness had spoken,
there must be a place to fight, whether it be the Xiongnu or someone else.
"Go, go, go, let's hurry back and weed the barnyard grass."
"I hope this batch of rice can grow quickly."
Wang Ben turned and ran toward the back of the military camp in excitement.
The others followed suit upon seeing this.
Xianyang City.
Ying Ying Zi Ye and the others had just returned to the city.
Xiao He became somewhat anxious and hurried.
He had brought back a large amount of data this time.
"Your Highness, I will return to the Great Qin Daily first to organize the data."
"I will not accompany Your Highness into the palace; please grant me permission."
Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled silently in the carriage.
"Mm, you all go ahead."
"It has been quite a few days since we returned."
"Everyone go home and find your families to gather."
"Having soldiers escort me back to the palace is enough."
After all, everyone had not been back for some time.
Whether they missed their homes or wanted to get things done, they were all eager to see their friends and family.
"Thank you for your permission, Your Highness."
Xiao He headed rapidly toward the Great Qin Daily office.
"Your Highness, this general will still escort you to the Xianyanggong before going home."
Protecting Ying Ying Zi Ye was Wang Li's responsibility; he could not just leave halfway.
"No need, you go home first."
"This is Xianyang City; are you worried there is danger?"
Ying Ying Zi Ye shook his head and chuckled; he was truly dutiful.
But this was Xianyang City; what danger could there be?
Wang Li and Shangqing Meng Yi exchanged a glance and also smiled bitterly; even if there were danger,
given His Highness's strength, it was likely His Highness would be protecting them,
rather than them protecting His Highness.
The time spent away was not short, and they were also missing home.
"Your Highness, then we shall take our leave first."
Wang Li and Shangqing Meng Yi bowed and also went home separately.
A few soldiers remained here.
"Return to the Xianyanggong."
Ying Ying Zi Ye said, then closed his eyes. ===== CHAPTER 595 =====
