The cities that had received Qin's help many times couldn't help but cry out for Qin. This proved that Qin had always been friendly to them and had never forced them by force. Those city lords who joined Qin all did so voluntarily.
Now, natural disasters are frequent, and the resources of the cities are consumed too much. Qin has always been helping us. Qin is absolutely righteous and kind. Those who say that Qin is cruel, bloodthirsty, evil, and barbaric definitely don't know Qin's true character.
At this moment, it is like a fairyland. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are frequent outside, but Qin is surrounded by birds and flowers. The people are living a healthy and prosperous life, and there are no man-made disasters. It is peaceful, which proves that Qin is not a violent person. Otherwise, how could the people be so happy?
Such a good force should be slandered like this. As ordinary people, we can't stand it. Are those who slander Qin blind? How dare they say such ridiculous words? I will prove Qin's innocence.
Among those who proved Qin's innocence, the cities that shouted the loudest and reacted the most fiercely had secretly decided to join Qin. It was Qin's idea to say such words.
After all, the other cities had also received help from Qin, and Qin didn't hurt them. So, they all stood up to echo him.
Even though it was just a simple response, the reaction was massive, and it created an image of Great Qin as a kind, friendly, and peaceful nation. It was a stark contrast to those who said that Great Qin was cruel, bloodthirsty, evil, and barbaric.
Originally, Qin's unscrupulous and barbaric expansion had made countless cities feel threatened. They almost wanted to unite to destroy Qin. It seemed that Qin had reached the point where everyone wanted to kill him. But at this moment, the situation was reversed in an instant.
Some people said that Qin was cruel and bloodthirsty, while others said that Qin was peaceful and friendly. The two views collided, and no one wanted to kill Qin.
At this time, the City Lords of the cities that had been captured by Qin stood up and announced in a high-profile manner that they had secretly planned to kill Qin. Now they had been subdued by Qin and were willing to serve Qin.
Qin didn't blame us at all. He treated us well in all aspects and treated us as his family. You said all kinds of bad things about Qin. We also felt wronged for Qin. Justice should be upheld. It was us who were wrong.
As soon as these words were spoken, many factions were shaken. Now, the City Lords of the conquered regions had personally come to prove that Qin was innocent. Moreover, even though others wanted to harm him, he still chose to be friendly to those who harmed him. He chose to use virtue to convince the masses and treat people peacefully. What a noble character!
Immediately!
The public opinion in the north of the mainland was on Qin's side. They thought that Qin was kind and peaceful. Qin hadn't launched a war against a foreign country for a long time. Now he suddenly went to such a faraway place to attack others. There must be something hidden.
Moreover, he hadn't even cleared out the nearby cities. Why would he attack other places? This was really unnecessary, and they couldn't understand why.
Most of the City Lords in the east didn't know the truth. They only knew that Qin was attacking, so they immediately joined forces and chose to resist Qin together.
However, they didn't expect things to change like this. One side said that Qin was evil, while the other side said that Qin was kind. Now, it was obvious that Qin was kind because there was all kinds of evidence to prove it.
If it was really those City Lords who conspired to harm Qin first, then they deserved to be destroyed by Qin. As long as Qin didn't continue to attack, they didn't need to risk their lives to fight against Qin. As such, the City Lords who had been fighting against Qin collapsed in a short while, and the City Lords left one after another.
The City Lords who came out to prove that Qin was kind had already submitted to Qin, so they naturally listened to Qin's orders. It wasn't a problem for them to make false testimonies for Qin.
Moreover, Zhao Fu didn't show up at all. Everything was handled by Li Si. Even if he was found out, he could push all the blame to Li Si. This was just a small trick of the regime.
It was obvious that Qin Sheng was an evil, violent, and barbaric guy, but he dared to say that he was kind and friendly so openly and shamelessly. This made many City Lords who knew the truth so angry that they wanted to die.
For example, some City Lords who escaped from the areas that Qin attacked and conquered stood out to prove that they didn't have the intention to plot against Qin, and that everything was framed by Qin. It was clear that Qin had deliberately invaded. This kind of method was really shameless, and they didn't dare to admit it.
In response, Qin harshly retorted that Qin definitely didn't have any intention of attacking these Cities. If Qin had come, it would have been because they were afraid that they would run away and cause countless residents to lose their support. They were cowardly and irresponsible people.
Both sides started to argue, but neither side sent out troops. In actuality, Zhao Fu had long since made preparations and had sent a large number of soldiers to defend the Great Wall, waiting for them to attack. However, they didn't dare to come.
This was because they didn't have enough people – they only had 400 City Lords and 40 million soldiers. They understood that they weren't a match for Qin, so they naturally wouldn't attack.
Now, they couldn't stand on the side of justice and cause even more City Lords to join forces against them. Qin's actions made them feel incredibly furious. He had turned black into white, and the dead into alive; he was simply too shameless. They were furious, but they couldn't do anything about it.
The player factions all knew that this was just Qin's strategy. They knew Qin's true nature, as from the very beginning, Qin was a synonym for ruthlessness and evil.
However, even though they knew this, they didn't dare to do anything. After all, with Qin's strength, it would already be good if he didn't make trouble for them. If they dared to make trouble for him, they would be destroyed by Qin at any moment.
Everyone knew what was going on, but they could only pretend that they didn't know. This was how powerful Qin was.
Qin's gains this time were simply shocking. He had obtained 240 Cities, 22 million Stage 1 soldiers, and 110 million residents. His Level 4 Capital City only lacked a bit of EXP to level up into a Level 5 Capital City.
His strength had once again increased by a monstrous amount. Since there were no battles, Qin once again kept a low profile and properly digested this power. As for the other two factions, he could only delay them for a bit.
Now that he had some free time, Zhao Fu once again returned to the real world to take care of some matters. He found out that the Great Ming Dynasty and Great Song Dynasty had allied together to destroy the White Lotus Society.
However, because the White Lotus Society was incredibly widespread and had deep roots, they could only heavily injure them each time and were unable to uproot them.
