"I knew they would unite sooner or later."
“But that’s what I was hoping for.”
"Only by exposing them completely can we catch them all in one fell swoop."
"If they continue to hide, it will only make the situation in Daqin more unstable."
Chen Ping immediately understood Ying Yuan’s plan. Every step he took was to solve the most difficult problem in the shortest time.
"Sir, I understand what you mean."
"I will step up monitoring of the movements of these court officials. Once they reveal any flaws, we will take immediate action."
Ying Yuan nodded slightly, and then said: "Many of these court officials have benefited from the noble families."
"They think they can continue to have it both ways as long as they don't take a stand."
“But they don’t know that those who waver are the first to be blown down when the storm comes.”
"I want them to know that this choice is not a trade-off between life and death, but a choice between absolute loyalty and betrayal."
Chen Ping's heart sank, knowing that Ying Yuan had made up his mind. This time, he would not give these wavering forces any chance.
"My lord is wise. I will fully cooperate with this operation."
"However, my lord, do you want to appease the loyal officials to prevent them from being affected by the turbulent situation?"
Ying Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded.
"Those who are loyal to me must be comforted."
"Pass the order down and secretly give those loyal officials and generals some practical benefits."
"I want them to know that by standing on my side, they can not only protect themselves, but also gain more."
Chen Ping responded, "I understand. I will arrange it as soon as possible."
Ying Yuan said coldly: "The situation in the court has become increasingly complicated."
"Neutralists, remnants of the aristocratic families, and the Huns, these are all challenges I must deal with one by one."
"But in the end, they will all be doomed to fail."
Chen Ping agreed with this and said, "Sir, the Xiongnu's attack may be our biggest crisis now."
"If we can win the battle on the border, we can not only deter foreign enemies, but also establish a more stable authority in the court."
Ying Yuan nodded, and then said: "The battle on the border is indeed crucial."
"Order the Central Army to mobilize another 10,000 elite troops to the border."
"I won't allow any mistakes."
"At the same time, have the Royal Guards secretly investigate the Xiongnu's accomplices in the court. Once confirmed, eliminate them immediately."
Chen Ping nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will do my best."
Ying Yuan stood in front of the desk, looking down at the map on the table with a calm and deep gaze.
"This battle is not just a confrontation between the Qin and the Xiongnu."
"It is a game between the court and the local governments, loyalty and betrayal, survival and death."
"I, Ying Yuan, am destined to win this game."
Chen Ping looked at Ying Yuan calmly. He knew that Ying Yuan's strategy was far beyond that of ordinary people. He not only had to solve the current crisis, but also pave the way for the future of Daqin.
"Sir, I believe that under your leadership, the Qin Empire will be able to overcome the danger and usher in new glory."
Ying Yuan smiled slightly, with endless determination in his eyes.
"The future of the Qin Empire will rebuild its order under my control."
“Those forces that attempt to subvert the imperial power, whether they are the Xiongnu or the aristocratic families, will be completely destroyed in this storm.”
Chen Ping responded in a low voice: "Young Master is wise."
Ying Yuan stood in front of the window, looking into the distance.
He knew that the moment of decisive battle was approaching.
And he has already prepared for all these challenges.
The king in the storm is destined to be fearless of wind and rain. He Yingyuan will eventually lead Daqin to a stronger future.
In the study, the flickering candlelight illuminated Ying Yuan's cold and determined face.
In the East Palace study, the candlelight was still flickering, illuminating Ying Yuan's thoughtful figure.
As the night deepens, the surroundings become quieter.
But in this tranquility, Ying Yuan had already been calculating various possible changes in the situation in his mind.
Every step he takes must be faster than the enemy.
"The neutral faction in the court has not yet expressed its stance, and the remaining factions of the aristocratic families are still operating in secret."
"The battle situation on the border hangs on a thread again."
Ying Yuan whispered to himself, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
He knew very well that this chess game was not just a showdown between the Huns and the Qin Dynasty.
What is involved behind the scenes is the secret game between the entire Qin court and local forces.
Chen Ping stood aside, holding the latest secret report in his hand, with a serious look in his eyes.
"Sir, the latest intelligence shows that the Xiongnu are not only gathering troops on the border, but also seem to have made contact with the remnants of the aristocratic families in certain places."
"I am worried that this will be their strategy to attack from both inside and outside."
Ying Yuan sneered, a hint of contempt flashing in his eyes.
"Do the Xiongnu really think they can rely on the power of the noble families for this attack? They underestimated the power of the Qin Dynasty."
"The remnants of the noble families are just a bunch of profit-seeking villains."
"They thought they were still in control of the place, but in fact, their foundations had already been shaken by me."
Chen Ping nodded slightly, and then said: "Young Master is wise."
"I have secretly arranged for officials from various places to begin to further suppress the power of the aristocratic families in the local areas."
"But these aristocratic families are extremely hidden and have complex connections with the local power structure. It is difficult to completely eradicate them in a short period of time."
Ying Yuan smiled lightly, his eyes revealing an unfathomable calmness.
"No matter how hard the aristocratic families try to hide their power, they cannot escape the control of the imperial court."
"They thought they could regain their footing with the help of the Xiongnu's attack, but this time, they are destined to be completely destroyed."
Chen Ping frowned slightly, and then said: "Sir, although the remnants of the aristocratic families are secretly active, they have a foundation of hundreds of years after all."
"If we act rashly, it could lead to a bigger backlash."
"I suggest that we continue to focus on stability and gradually eliminate these forces to avoid causing unrest in the local area."
Ying Yuan nodded and said calmly: "You are right, now is not the best time to completely eliminate them."
“But I wouldn’t give them too much time.”
"Let them continue to hide. When the time is right, we will eradicate them all at once."
Chen Ping responded in a low voice: "I understand. I will continue to monitor their movements and make sure they have nowhere to escape."
Ying Yuan slowly stood up, walked to the window, and looked into the distant night sky, his eyes full of planning and arrangements for the future.
"I have long been aware of the movements of the remnants of the noble families in the past few years."
"They thought that local forces could compete with the imperial court, but they were wrong."
"I have gradually weakened their economic and military power."
"If they dare to collude with the Xiongnu this time, they will be digging their own graves."
Chen Ping listened to Ying Yuan's analysis and felt sincere admiration for his ability to control the situation.
Ying Yuan not only sees the current situation, but also sees the future changes and possibilities through the situation.
"Sir, I have also received news that the generals on the border have begun to counterattack the Xiongnu's actions, but they need more support."
"If we don't mobilize troops quickly, I'm afraid the situation on the border will become even more tense."
Ying Yuan frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of calm analysis. (End of this chapter)
