The sun gradually rose, and Xianyang City ushered in a new day.

But for Ying Yuan, the sunlight on this day seemed particularly dazzling.

The storm has subsided, but the struggle for power has never truly ended.

Ying Yuan stood on the high platform of the East Palace, looking towards the palace city in the distance with a deep gaze.

"Feng Quji is a thing of the past, but the undercurrent in the Qin court still exists."

Chen Ping walked forward slowly, with a solemn look on his face.

"Sir, last night's cleansing operation has ended."

"Feng Quji's followers were arrested one by one by the Jinyiwei, and all entrances and exits of the capital have been completely blocked."

"The chances of escape are slim."

Ying Yuan nodded slightly, his eyes as cold as usual.

"very good."

"These people think they can threaten me with the power of the aristocratic families."

"Now, they should know that aristocratic families are a thing of the past."

Chen Ping nodded and said, "I have already seized all their property."

"These properties will be returned to the national treasury and redistributed to forces loyal to the Qin Dynasty."

After hearing this, Ying Yuan's eyes flashed with satisfaction.

"These financial resources are enough to rebuild the foundation of Daqin."

"Those loyal officials and soldiers will be duly rewarded."

"I will make everyone understand that only by being loyal to the Qin Empire can one survive."

Chen Ping smiled slightly, feeling deep admiration for Ying Yuan's foresight.

"What the young master said is absolutely true."

"Now that Feng Quji has fallen, the power of the aristocratic families has been severely damaged."

"It's a good time to rebuild the Qin Dynasty."

Ying Yuan said coldly: "But we can't take it lightly."

"The power of the aristocratic families is deeply rooted. Their roots are not only in the court, but also among the people."

"We have to continue to clean up their local presence."

"Only by completely cutting off their power can the future of Daqin be truly stable."

Chen Ping nodded and said, "Sir, I have already arranged for people to gradually investigate the power of the aristocratic families in various places."

"If there is any unusual movement, report it immediately."

"The power of these aristocratic families in the local areas must be disintegrated one by one."

Ying Yuan smiled coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"very good."

“These people think that their foundation is solid and they can continue to cause chaos.”

"But they don't know that I have seen through their every move."

"We must completely eradicate these hidden dangers before they can react."

Chen Ping admired Ying Yuan's decision even more. He knew that Ying Yuan was not only purging the opposition forces in the court, but also paving the way for the future of the Qin Dynasty.

"My lord, you are wise. I will fully cooperate with you and carry out this cleansing to the end."

Ying Yuan nodded slightly, and then said: "Although the local noble families are not as powerful as Feng Quji, their influence should not be underestimated."

"Especially in some remote areas, the power of the aristocratic families is deeply rooted."

"We must send reliable officials to take over the power in these areas and ensure that Daqin's rule is not affected."

Chen Ping agreed with this and nodded, saying, "Sir, you are absolutely right."

"We must eradicate the influence of these aristocratic families at the root, in order to truly consolidate the rule of the Qin Dynasty."

"I suggest that we select some loyal young officials and send them to various places to take over local government affairs."

"They are both capable and not corrupted by the power of the aristocratic families. They can create a new situation for the Qin Dynasty."

Ying Yuan nodded, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

“Young officials are indeed worth training.”

"But we must ensure their loyalty to Daqin."

"This time, we must not allow the corruption and selfishness of the aristocratic families to erode the court."

"Chen Ping, you are responsible for selecting a group of suitable candidates from among the officials."

"I need them to be capable, courageous and loyal."

After hearing this, Chen Ping immediately accepted the order.

"I understand. I will definitely select the most suitable talents from officials from all over the country and will never let you down." Ying Yuan nodded slightly and then said, "In addition, those neutral ministers who are wavering in the court must also be controlled."

“Although they haven’t rebelled yet, this attitude itself is a hidden danger.”

"We can't allow them to become a new threat."

Chen Ping thought for a moment, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

"Sir, these neutrals are indeed a hidden danger."

“Although they did not explicitly stand on Feng Quji’s side, they did not support us either.”

"They are always waiting for the wind to change so they can choose their side at any time."

Ying Yuan said coldly: "These people are the most cunning."

"We must understand their weaknesses and control them using both hard and soft tactics."

"If necessary, you can also take this opportunity to clean some of it."

"They cannot become a force that hinders the progress of the Qin Dynasty."

Chen Ping nodded and said, "My lord, what you said is absolutely right."

"If I can win over these neutral parties and use them for my own benefit, that would be a good thing."

"If they still waver, then we must deal with it decisively."

Ying Yuan's gaze remained calm and firm.

"Send a message to the Royal Guards to continue monitoring the movements of these neutral factions."

"I will give them some chances, but if they continue to hesitate, there will be no mercy."

After hearing this, Chen Ping admired Ying Yuan's skills even more.

Not only is he ruthless and decisive, he can also seize every tiny opportunity and turn it into his own strength.

"I understand. I will make these people understand that you are their only way out."

Ying Yuan nodded slightly and looked into the distance again.

Feng Quji’s fall is now a thing of the past, but more challenges await him.

The future of Daqin is at a critical moment of reshuffle.

"Now, the opposition in the court has weakened."

"Next, we must focus our efforts on restoring the foundation of Daqin."

"The remaining power of these aristocratic families is not only in the court and the local areas, but they also control many economic resources."

“We cannot allow these resources to continue to be in their hands.”

Chen Ping's eyes flashed with a shrewd light, and then he said: "My lord, what you said is very true."

"I have already arranged a group of officials to take over the seized properties of the noble families."

"This wealth will be used to rebuild the country and expand the military."

Ying Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

"very good."

"This wealth is enough for us to accomplish many great plans."

"I will use these resources to strengthen Daqin's armaments and ensure the stability of the border."

Chen Ping nodded and said, "Sir, the situation on the border does need attention."

"Although Feng Quji's rebellion did not shake the foundation of the Qin Empire, the Xiongnu and other external forces on the border may take the opportunity to test it."

Ying Yuan said coldly: "If they dare to take advantage of the chaos, they will destroy themselves."

"After the purge of the court is completed, I will concentrate my efforts to completely resolve the hidden dangers on the border."

"Let them never dare to offend Daqin again."

After hearing this, Chen Ping was deeply shocked by Ying Yuan's determination and ambition.

He knew that Ying Yuan was not only handling the affairs of the court, but also planning for the future of the entire Qin Dynasty.

"My lord is wise, I will fully cooperate with you."

"After this cleansing, Daqin will surely be renewed."

Ying Yuan nodded slightly, his eyes calm and firm.

"The storm has passed."

"Next, it's time to rebuild."

"I, Ying Yuan, will make Daqin glorious again!"

As Ying Yuan's voice fell, the entire hall was filled with his endless determination and domineering aura.

After the storm, the future of Daqin is gradually unfolding under his control. (End of this chapter)
