Chapter 689: Zhang Liang

Hearing Li Si's words, Ying Zheng also nodded slightly.

"Since that is the case, then I shall recall Meng Tian and send him to Shangjun to defend against the Great Han!"

"However, once Meng Tian leaves, there will be no one to deal with the Liuguo Remnants!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's concern, Li Si immediately said to Ying Zheng:

"Your Majesty, have you perhaps forgotten about Wei Zhuang of Liu Sha? In the battle at Mo Family Mechanism City, Wei Zhuang gravely wounded Gai Nie."

"He also killed quite a few of the Mo Family people. If not for Dao Family's Ren Sect's Xiao Yao Zi lending a hand last time, several of the Mo Family leaders would have been captured long ago!"

After hearing Li Si's words, Ying Zheng nodded and said to Li Si:

"Since that is the case, then continue to have Wei Zhuang go pursue and kill the Mo Family people. Also, send the Yin Yang Family's Xing Hun out as well. Since I have given him the position of National Master, it is time he contributed something to Great Qin!"

Mentioning the Yin Yang Family, a flash of cold intent passed through Ying Zheng's eyes.

Hearing this, Li Si also nodded. Then, he proposed to Ying Zheng:

"Your Majesty, this humble official believes that, to be absolutely sure, the Luo Wang assassins in Commander Zhao's hands should also be dispatched."

"After all, the place the Mo Family people have fled to this time is the Ru Family's Little Sage Village."

"However, we cannot strike directly at Little Sage Village. We must force the Mo Family people out of Little Sage Village first."

"And this humble official was, in earlier years, also a student of the Ru Family's Xun Zi, so this time this humble official is willing to go to Little Sage Village!"

Hearing Li Si's words, Ying Zheng also nodded. Having Li Si go was the best possible arrangement.

"I approve. Moreover, this time take Fu Su with you as well. Let him see for himself how the Ru Family he speaks of shelters criminals of the Imperial Empire!"

Thinking of his eldest son Fu Su, Ying Zheng could not help but feel a headache coming on — his head was filled with nothing but the Ru Family's talk of benevolence and morality.

If Fu Su were not the Eldest Prince of Great Qin, then there would be no problem with him studying the Ru Family's ideas of governance.

However, Ying Zheng had been cultivating Fu Su as Great Qin's successor.

This destined that Fu Su could not rely solely on the Ru Family's ways. The Ru Family's ideas of governance were meant for times of peace and prosperity.

But the present Great Qin had, internally, the Liuguo Remnants causing trouble, seeking to overthrow Great Qin.

And externally, there had appeared a Great Han capable of annihilating the Xiongnu. It was obvious that relying on the Ru Family's ways simply would not work.

Li Si, upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, immediately understood Ying Zheng's meaning and respectfully replied to Ying Zheng:

"This humble official obeys the decree!"

Seeing this, Ying Zheng also nodded in satisfaction. Li Si and Feng Quji, seeing that Ying Zheng had no further matters, immediately took their leave.

Soon, Ying Zheng recalled Meng Tian, who had been sent to annihilate the Mo Family, and ordered him to lead the Golden Fire Cavalry to Shangjun.

The matter of capturing the Mo Family people was left to Li Si, the Yin Yang Family, Wei Zhuang, and others.

Meanwhile, Liu Bian, who was at Little Sage Village, also received the news that the Great Han had annihilated the Xiongnu.

"I didn't expect Wenyuan and the others to move so quickly. In just over ten days, they've annihilated the Xiongnu!"

"Moreover, after devouring the Xiongnu's National Fortune Power, the Great Han's National Fortune Golden Dragon has grown another ten zhang in size. It is now two hundred and twelve zhang, one step closer to a Middle Grade Imperial Dynasty!"

"However, there are quite a few capable people in this world. If all of them could be brought into the Great Han, the Great Han's pool of talent would increase further."

This was also the reason Liu Bian had secretly left the Army — he wanted to see if he could first gather some talented people for the Great Han.

One must know that in this world there were people like Sword Saint Gai Nie, Wei Zhuang, Xiang Yu, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and others.

As for Han Xin, because he had already been revived by him, according to the system's settings, this world would erase all traces related to Han Xin.

As long as a historical figure had not yet appeared in the Great Han Main Realm, they would remain unchanged in other worlds.

But if a person had already appeared in the Great Han Main Realm, then in other worlds, if it was a period before the Great Han, people with the same name would still appear.

However, if it was a period after the Great Han, or if the person had not yet become famous, all traces would be erased by the system.

The system's explanation was that a person could not appear in the same period twice.

And since the Han Empire already had Han Xin, in the Da Qin World, Han Xin could no longer appear.

"Presumably, Ying Zheng has also received this news by now. It seems Meng Tian will be dispatched to the Northern Border. After all, now that my Han Empire has emerged into the world, Great Qin must also make preparations!"

"And it is time for me to go to Little Sage Village as well. I can also take the opportunity to meet the great Ru scholar, Xun Zi!"

In Liu Bian's plan, as long as these people of the Various Schools of Thought were not truly evil, he would bring them all under his command.

With these people joining, the Han Empire's overall national strength would receive a great boost.

As an Imperial Majesty, one cannot rely on the ideas of a single school. The Various Schools of Thought each had their own strengths — one must select and employ their strengths.

For example, the Yin Yang Family, whose Yin Yang Art was unrivaled under heaven; the Ru Family, needless to say, was a great aid in governing the country. If they were also made to cultivate Literary Dao Power, their strength would become even greater.

There was also the Mo Family, whose Mechanism Art was unmatched in the world, and likewise the Nong Family, Bing Family, Fa Family, and so on.

Then, Liu Bian's figure swiftly headed toward Little Sage Village.

Meanwhile, the people of Great Qin also learned the news that the Xiongnu had been annihilated by the Great Han.

"Big news! Big news!"

"According to news from the Northern Border, the Xiongnu, who have plagued our Great Qin for so long on the Grassland, have been wiped out!"

"What? Someone actually managed to wipe out the Xiongnu? Who did it? I haven't heard of His Majesty sending troops against the Xiongnu!"

"You've all guessed wrong this time. This time it wasn't our Great Qin that wiped them out — it was a country called the Han Empire that did it!"

"Han Empire? What kind of country is that? I've never even heard of it!"

"I don't know. They say the people of this Han Empire are Yan Huang Descendants just like us. The question is, after wiping out the Xiongnu, they wouldn't be thinking of attacking our Great Qin too, would they?"

"Hard to say. Sigh! Tian Xia had only just settled down, and now such a huge change has appeared!"

Meanwhile, at Little Sage Village, Zhang Liang also received the news of the Xiongnu's annihilation.

"Senior brother, the Xiongnu have been wiped out by an empire called the Great Han. Ying Zheng has already urgently recalled Meng Tian to Xianyang. It is said he plans to dispatch Meng Tian's Golden Fire Cavalry to defend against the Han Empire!"

"Although Ying Zheng has transferred Meng Tian away, he has also sent out the Yin Yang Family's Protector Xing Hun, the Luo Wang Six Sword Slaves, and Liu Sha to come pursue and kill the Mo Family people."

"Senior brother, the Mo Family is the main anti-Qin force. Are we really not going to help them?"

Zhang Liang looked at the Little Sage Village's head Fu Nian standing before him and said with some unwillingness.
