Chapter 578: Chen Ping's Choice

When Xiao He and Chen Ping saw that they were not doing their job properly, they came here with kindness and intentional advice, but they were educated. Why did they come?

"Your Majesty, I am both worried too much."

After a long time of depression, Xiao He said something he was worried about was too much, which was considered to admit his mistake to Ying Gao. Chen Ping was embarrassed to nod his head.

"It's okay, no one is perfect. Even if I have all kinds of ideas in my heart, I will eventually rely on you to realize it. If I really slacken one day, I naturally need you to wake me up like this. So I am very grateful to you when I come this time. Don't blame yourself."

After a few words, even if this matter came, Xiao He was about to turn around and leave, but Chen Ping obviously had something to say, so Ying Gao signaled Xiao He not to leave for the time being, and at the same time signaled Chen Ping that he had something to say but it would be okay.

"Your Majesty, since you have now governed the territory of Daqin very regularly, both the people and the officials of Daqin are very grateful to you. In addition, the Zuo Prime Minister, Taiwei and others are in charge here. Chen Ping thinks that Chen Ping is no longer needed in Xianyang City."

As soon as Chen Ping said this, Ying Gao understood what he meant, but he still pretended to be a little surprised and asked, "Oh? It's the time for employment in Xianyang City. I have to carry out the second imperial examination after the New Year. Why do you say this?"

"What the emperor said is the time when people are used, and refers to the entire Great Qin. What Chen Ping said before was that there was no Chen Ping in Xianyang City. The Great Qin land contained very broadly, which naturally includes the Mauryan Dynasty that had just been occupied by the Great Qin. According to my previous observation, with the occupation of the Mauryan Dynasty by the officials and soldiers of our Great Qin Dynasty, the energy of Lu Jia and General Meng Tian may be difficult to take care of the entire Mauryan Dynasty, so Chen Ping is willing to go to the Mauryan Dynasty to assist Lu Jia!"

Chen Ping did not hide anything with Ying Gao anymore. He directly expressed his purpose, which was to go to the Mauryan Dynasty. In order to show his determination, he also specifically said that he wanted to assist his good friend Lu Jia, rather than to compete for power with Lu Jia. This was nothing more than to reassure Ying Gao.

"I wonder what your plans are for entering the Mauryan Dynasty?"

The previous time Ying Gao took many officials to the Mauryan Dynasty and did not take Chen Ping. Chen Ping's understanding of the Mauryan Dynasty was naturally not that profound, so Ying Gao asked this question. The meaning in this question was quite obvious. That is, since you want to go to the Mauryan Dynasty, then you must have a plan after you arrive. You can't just want to go, but don't know what you can do if you go, right?

"Before, I and the left prime minister thought that the king had enough to attack the Mauryan Dynasty, but I didn't know that the king still had many great talents and strategies in his heart. If this was true, Chen Ping was willing to take my new policies and some practices to the city on the beach of the Mauryan Dynasty, and echoed Lu Jia in the city of Hua. If the people of the Mauryan Dynasty could catch up with the pace of our Great Qin as soon as possible, if the people of the Mauryan Dynasty could catch up with the pace of our Great Qin in time, the king could not only recruit soldiers from the land of the Great Qin, but also obtain a lot of troops from the land of the Mauryan Dynasty!"

This idea coincides with Ying Gao's own ideas before, but Ying Gao never told others about his ideas. Chen Ping naturally didn't know that. He was able to put forward these things enough to show that in Chen Ping's mind, the Mauryan Dynasty had become a part of the Great Qin, and the people of the Mauryan Dynasty had also become the same people as the people of the Great Qin.

Since Chen Ping had this idea, Ying Gao could naturally feel a little relieved. He knew that there was indeed a problem of few talents with outstanding talents on the land of the Mauryan Dynasty. In addition to Lu Jia, Ying Gao had selected either some old and scrupulous people or some young but inexperienced people. Obviously, he regarded the Mauryan Dynasty as a touchstone.

But it is obvious that these people will find it difficult to have any great talents in the short term, and most people will find it difficult to achieve Chen Ping's ability even in their entire lives.

Chen Ping was not sent before. One reason was that Ying Gao knew in his heart that most of the officials of the Qin Dynasty would not ask to go to the Mauryan Dynasty like Lu Jia. The other reason was that Xiao He was getting older and Ying Gao had taken Lu Jia away from him. Now his assistant was only Chen Ping. Of course, Ying Gao didn't want to get him away. The internal affairs of the Qin Dynasty were still very laborious. If all of them were pressed on Xiao He, the impact on his body would be very great.

Now that Chen Ping takes it seriously, he has told him about this matter, which is enough to show that this matter has been discussed by Xiao He and Chen Ping before. Moreover, Ying Gao looked at Xiao He's calm expression and knew that Xiao He must have known about this matter before, and most of them agreed with Chen Ping's plan.

"What does the left prime minister think Chen Ping's words?"

Ying Gao has been practicing as an emperor for so long, and he has already gained some experience in controlling the art. In this case, even if he and Chen Ping are willing to fight and the other are willing to be beaten, they cannot throw their first confidant, Xiao He, who is also half of Chen Ping's master, aside. If this is true, it will make Xiao Hehan feel sad.

"Your Majesty, Chen Ping's ability is not inferior to Lu Jia, but the things they are good at are different. In addition, Chen Ping and Lu Jia have completed many things together before, and there is still a big tacit understanding between them. So I think that transferring Chen Ping to the Maurya Dynasty to cooperate with Lu Jia is a benefit but no harm. With Chen Ping and Lu Jia in the Maurya Dynasty, it is believed that the ambition in the heart of the Lord will be fulfilled faster."

As Xiao He said this, it would be even more confirmed that Chen Ping must have consulted Xiao He before. Moreover, Xiao He did not continue to leave Chen Ping to assist him, and then waited until he stepped down and took over.

"But if Chen Ping went to the Mauryan Dynasty, the burden on Zuo Xiang would be much heavier. I don't know Zuo Xiang's body..."

In fact, this sentence is what Ying Gao said sincerely. Whether Xiao He's health is good has a lot to do with whether the Qin Dynasty's internal affairs can be done well. Especially after Chen Ping left, even if Ying Gao arranges a few successors for Xiao He, it must be Xiao He's health allows it, right?

But at this time, before Xiao He could speak, Chen Ping opened his mouth first.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about this matter. Not to mention that the Zuo Prime Minister has always been very healthy. The reason why the Zuo Prime Minister was able to let me go willingly was because after this period of searching, the Zuo Prime Minister had selected three officials under the age of thirty in the territory of the Great Qin Dynasty with the potential for governing the country. As long as I leave, the Zuo Prime Minister will immediately ask the Zuo Prime Minister to transfer him into the court of the Great Qin Dynasty, and that will be the new student behind the Zuo Prime in the future."

Ying Gao thought it was okay when he heard this. How big a condom was made for the master and apprentice for him to drill into it? It turns out that everyone had already thought of Chen Ping's proposal. Ying Gao would definitely agree with it, otherwise he would not have been able to find Xiao He's useful assistant in the entire Qin Dynasty.

"Since you both have said that, I naturally have to be close to humanity. I will give you half a month to prepare. If your family wants to bring them to the Mauryan Dynasty, I will also support them fully. But after you arrive at the Mauryan Dynasty, you will vigorously implement the new policy of the Great Qin in remote areas of the coast, and strive to make the grand occasion I wanted in the territory of the Great Qin that also appeared in the Mauryan Dynasty. In addition, there is another thing that you must put on an equally important position. Only after you agree to this matter can I let you go."

"Oh? Just say it, Chen Ping will never refuse!"

Chen Ping did not expect that Ying Gao would have other things to him. It turned out that according to his plan, it would have been a huge challenge to implement the internal affairs of the Qin Dynasty in the remote parts of the Mauryan Dynasty. Now Ying Gao has to have new requirements, which has suddenly made Chen Ping feel unsure.

"You arrived at the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty, first bring people and soldiers who were proficient in the Mauryan Dynasty from Fahrenheit City, then go straight to the southwest coast of the Mauryan Dynasty, and set your position in the largest city from the seaside, echoing Lu Jiayao, and then you will develop a navy with it centered there!"

"Develop a navy?"

Obviously, Chen Ping was quite surprised by Ying Gao's request. Except for the time when Daqin attacked the Mauryan Dynasty, he had trained the navy in two places for a period of time, he almost never paid attention to the navy at the other time.

Moreover, judging from the process and results of the war against the Mauryan Dynasty, the cavalry led by Xiang Yu and Han Xin who had passed by shortcuts had a greater effect.

Even without the naval army, the coalition forces of the Qin and the Huns might be able to win. Not only that, when they rushed from the Qin Dynasty to the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty, the two naval armies had different degrees of non-combat reductions. This situation was definitely not something that an emperor would like to see.

So since the beginning of the capture of the Mauryan Dynasty, people in the Qin Dynasty have speculated that the navy army might not appear any more in the territory of the Qin Dynasty, because they were really a bit useless after this actual combat test.

Of course, Chen Ping was among the people who were guessing this, so he was so surprised by Ying Gao's mission. He spent a long time in the Western Regions and knew how convenient it was to get from the Western Regions to the Mauryan Dynasty. So the water passage and dozens of warships were really useless in his heart.

"Yes, I know what you think in your heart, but I'll ask you, has anyone successfully sailed on the sea such a long distance from the Great Qin to the Mauryan Dynasty?"

"This has never happened."

"I ask you again, can't Lu Jia lead people to find the entrance to the Mauryan Dynasty in the Western Regions? Let's not attack the Mauryan Dynasty?"

"This... the place you want to attack will naturally definitely attack!"

"I can tell you that this time Lu Jia found the entrance to the Mauryan Dynasty between the mountains in the Western Regions. Under normal circumstances, what I have to rely on is the two naval armies."

Hearing this, Chen Ping had nothing to refute, because like other court officials, he had no idea whether the navy could reach the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty, and he had no idea how confident Ying Gao had to send Lu Jia to the Western Regions to find the entrance.

Seeing Chen Ping standing there silently, but obviously still had a lot of questions about the development of the navy in his heart, Ying Gao continued to explain.

"If there was a large area of ​​land, they were not very far from my Great Qin or the Mauryan Dynasty, but there was no road on land that could lead there and only from the sea could pass through you?"

"If that is the case, naturally only powerful navy and warships can reach it, but does the territory like the king said really exist?"

“Not only exists, but there are many…”

After Ying Gao said this to Chen Ping very surprised, he began to close his eyes and rest. He had his purpose in doing this, so he naturally didn't want Chen Ping to keep asking questions here.

He couldn't let Chen Ping learn world geography with him. In short, just click until he could make Chen Ping realize the importance of the navy. Otherwise, if someone doesn't recognize this in his heart, even if he gets your order, he won't be able to do it very well.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Chen Ping will do his best in the affairs of the navy!"

"Okay, when you arrive in Fahrenheit City, I will write a letter in person, asking Peng Yue to take the navy army with you to station in the city that is ten thousand from the seaside. If you live in the internal affairs, he will be responsible for training the navy under your command. How about it?"

"Chen Ping thanked you!"

Chen Ping is a smart person. He has seen a lot of things from some details. Although he said he was going to be a deputy to Lu Jia when he applied, in fact, since Ying Gao gave Peng Yue to his command, he naturally would not be Lu Jia's deputy, and his status should be equal to Lu Jia and Meng Tian.

This was a surprise for Chen Ping, but Ying Gao’s official appointment has not yet come down, so of course he cannot thank Ying Gao for his sophistication here. Chen Ping knew that it would be enough to keep some words in his heart.
