Chapter 544 Qin Huang's Calculation

Ying Ji originated from later generations, especially from the era of information explosion, and has unique views and opinions on various things.

Ying Ji knew well that the existence of sects should not appear within the framework of the empire at all.

Even within the current empire, no sectarian form exists.

Hundreds of schools of thought are only academic schools. Although they have their own armed forces, they are all willing to be loyal to the empire and controlled by the empire, which is fundamentally different from the natives of these other worlds.

No matter which world it is, or even the heavens and the world.

There are too many disadvantages of the sect, and Ying Ji doesn't want to talk about it, because it's impossible to finish.

But one thing is certain, that is, Ying Ji has made up his mind to imitate that guy Zhao Kuangyin's wine to release military power in today's banquet.

They want to use this feast to cut off the cancerous hidden danger of Zongmen in one fell swoop, making it completely extinct in the future imperial framework.

"You still have one last stick of incense."

Seeing a shadow guard beside him insert the last one carrying the three ambergris, Ying Ji closed his eyes and quietly waited for the decision of these people.

As if time suddenly paused, the silence was eerie and terrifying, so quiet that one could even hear the heartbeat of the people beside him, one could imagine the depressing atmosphere.

Looking at the ambergris burning shorter and shorter, more than twenty people from the southern region were struggling and weighing painfully in their hearts.

But they also know that if they still can't give Qin Huang a satisfactory answer after the incense burns out.

Then this ambergris, which burns shorter and shorter, is very likely to be their life reminder.

But as the saying goes, the power of example is infinite.

Looking at the ambergris that had burned to the half, and then looking at the scene of the strong men in the entire tent, thinking about the elites of the empire who were waiting for the moment outside the tent, finally someone took the lead in compromising.

"Su Quan, the Supreme Elder of Xuanyang Sect, from now on, is willing to give up his identity as Supreme Elder of Xuanyang Sect and draw a clear line with Xuanyang Sect. From now on, the two have nothing to do with each other, and serve the empire wholeheartedly."

"And I am willing to take the cloud boat to return to Xuanyang Sect tonight, and persuade the sect master and the elders to disband the sect, hand over all the resources of the sect's treasure house, practice the exercises, withdraw and destroy the mountain gate, hand over all the land and Cooperate with the Empire to receive."

"All the branches of the sect were also dismissed on the spot, except for the disciples and elders of the Xuanyang sect who joined the imperial army a few months ago."

"All the remaining sect disciples and elders will also take the flying cloud boat to the front line within three days, join the two major battalions, and participate in the next imperial war."

"Five days, my minister assures His Majesty that there will be no Xuanyang Sect in the world after five days."

"If there is something that violates the yang and yin, the minister is willing to suffer the death penalty of the empire."

At this time, it has been more than a month since the surrender of Daqin, and Su Quan, the elder of the Xianyang Sect, who is now the commander of the forward battalion of the two major battalions of the Tenth Army, stepped forward and said.

And directly expressed his attitude, willing to cooperate with the empire to dissolve the sect.

"Oh, Elder Su Quan is really bold, but Elder Su is also really a smart person."

Seeing that someone finally made a statement, and also gave the answer he hoped for.

Ying Ji opened her eyes, and said praise constantly in her mouth.

When many imperial civil and military powerhouses saw this situation, a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

They know that as long as the situation is opened up, the next thing will be much easier.

"But what if everyone in the Xuanyang Sect is unwilling to cooperate with Elder Su?"

At this moment, Ying Ji also threw a fatal question after finishing speaking.

Yes, although Su Quan is a high-ranking elder in the Xuanyang Sect, he is not the suzerain after all, and naturally he does not have the right to decide a matter.

At most it can only suggest, not decide.

Hearing the emperor's words, Su Quan lowered his head and fell silent.

But then, determined to be tied to the imperial chariot to seek his own substantial interests, Su Quan's eyes flashed a crazy color: "Report to Your Majesty, if the Sect Master and the elders refuse, Su Quan is willing to kill the Sect Master to replace him."

As soon as this statement came out, it can be said that one stone stirred up a thousand waves!

Many civil and military powerhouses in the empire looked at Su Quan with a pair of astonished eyes at this time.

In my heart, I was extremely surprised. I didn't expect that Su Quan was willing to kill the people of this sect to make contributions in order to save his life and climb up the high branch of the empire.

"I didn't expect that Su Quan was really a ruthless person."

That's right, the imperial civil and military powerhouse's opinion of Su Quan is appreciation, but the rest of the twenty-odd people from the southern region only have fear in their hearts.

But this has nothing to do with Ying Ji. At this time, Ying Ji looked at Su Quan with more satisfaction, and laughed loudly.

"Haha, well, since ancient times, the person who knows the current affairs is Junjie, and Elder Su should be Junjie."

"However, Elder Su actually said so, so I naturally have to make a statement."

"I hereby promise that only within five days for Elder Su to complete this matter, then I promise to give Elder Su the post of state shepherd in the empire."

Yes, Ying Ji is motivating everyone with interests, so that they can see that the benefits they get from following the empire are definitely much more than what they once got.

Whether it is former status, fame, or actual interests, it is not worth mentioning compared with the empire.

Only in this way will they be willing to let go of the past and become loyal dogs of the Empire wholeheartedly, the kind that bites whoever they call.

Anyway, according to Ying Ji's estimation, the empire will at least set up more than 200 states after the complete occupation of the southern regions for administrative and military management.

Among the two hundred or so states in the future, the majority of the people serving as state shepherds from the empire will occupy the majority.

But in order to truly occupy and assimilate, it is impossible for the positions of these two hundred state shepherds to be entirely held by people from the empire.

According to Ying Ji's conception, after the complete capture of the Southern Regions, at least 30 or so state shepherds should be assigned to these outstanding and outstanding people from the Southern Regions.

Therefore, Ying Ji's current practice of awarding officials is actually pushing the boat along the way, and by the way, completes the plan to cut off the sect.

"The minister dares to ask Your Majesty, what is the position of the state shepherd?"

Hearing Ying Ji's words, Su Quan said.

After Su Quan spoke, the other twenty or so people from the Southern Region also showed a curious look.

After all, in the Xuantian Continent, there is no such position as a state shepherd.

Looking at the gazes of these people from the southern region, Ying Ji smiled inwardly, and said, "The position of state shepherd is probably equivalent to a commander of the Qin army."

Hearing Ying Ji's words, the remaining twenty or so people from the Southern Region were instantly stunned.

"What... what... the status of the state shepherd is actually equivalent to the commander of the Qin army?"

"Su Quan is really an old fox, and he has good luck."

"Damn, why wasn't it just me, why wasn't it me?"

At this time, the hearts of more than twenty people from the Southern Region were full of remorse, regretting why they didn't speak first.

In fact, they were already prepared to compromise, but they were worried about leaving an ungrateful negative image in front of the emperor and many imperial ministers, so they wanted to hold on for a while longer.

As a result, this insistence has insisted on the status of the state shepherd, and they regret it.

What is the status of the Qin army commander?

It has been a while since they surrendered to Daqin, and they now understand a little bit.

The commander of the Qin army was an existence that was infinitely close to the power center of the empire.

In the past, Lao Shizi's sect elders, clan elders, and honorary elders had extremely high positions of power and honor, and they were nothing in front of the Qin army commander.

Is your sect cattle, your family cattle?

How does it compare to Qin Jun?

You will be leveled before a brigade's strength.

At this moment, such a high-ranking position was missed because of his own thought, and many people in the southern region regretted it.

Not to mention the remorse of the others, even Su Quan was stunned at the moment.

But after reacting, Su Quan, an old fox who had lived for hundreds of years, couldn't hold back his excitement.

He immediately got up and knelt down before Ying Ji, and said excitedly, "Your Majesty has thanked His Majesty for his grace, and will not disappoint His Majesty's respect."

Seeing Su Quan, the old fox, showed another wave of loyalty, how could the other twenty or so people from the Southern Region still be able to sit still?

If you don't act again, I'm afraid you won't get soup, and you may lose your life later.

So they all got up, knelt down to Ying Ji, cupped their hands and said, "The ministers and others are willing to fully support Your Majesty. If the people of the sect refuse to obey, then the ministers will all kill them and replace them, so that the sect will disappear from the world."

Twenty people said in unison.

And Ying Ji and many imperial civil and military powerhouses also smiled in their hearts.

They know that with the cooperation of these newly recruited Imperial Eagle Dogs, most of the plan to cut off the sect has been successful.

Success, everyone is happy.

Failure is limited to internal friction between sects.

At that time, the empire will directly send troops to destroy it in the name of disobedience to its jurisdiction, and the pressure and losses it will suffer will be minimized. Why not do it?

This is Ying Ji's calculation.

A calculation centered on the temptation of profit.

As long as it is not the kind of incomparably aloof born sages, almost all of them will be recruited. Even if they know that it is a conspiracy, they will jump in without hesitation, almost without a solution.
