Chapter 172 Queen Deshan
Zhao Hao knew that what his father said this time was also meant for him.
Because he had to use his own mouth to pass these words back to Xiang Dalong and others.
Because what can be seen is that this war without weapons will be a protracted war!
It is also a war between China and other civilizations.
He has this now. Manpower must play a corresponding role. Dad will never waste any available resources.
On the other hand, as the prince who is now the most likely to inherit that position, he naturally needs to know Great Qin's foreign policy in the future.
Of course, the matter of the heir is not finalized. According to Dad, whoever is most beneficial to Da Qin will be in that position.
He also had some doubts in his heart,
Following his father these years, he noticed that he seemed to have thought that someone could take the emperor's place for a long time, and he didn't pay much attention to it.
Who in the world wouldn’t want that position?
But it seems that his father doesn't want to do it for a long time. He just wants to find someone to train a qualified successor and then give up his position.
Is that location really so bad?
Zhao Hao couldn't figure it out, and of course he didn't think much about it. Anyway, few people in the world could follow his father's ideas.
Just now, these ministers who have been with Dad for more than ten years are now so frightened that they dare not even raise their heads.
Uncle Fusu, who is famous for his kindness, wisdom, and teaching, escaped the first time, but in the end, he was arranged properly by his father.
So he stopped thinking too much and just followed the direction set by his father.
The banquet continued until it got dark
Later that night, Zhao Hao followed his father and prepared to put Fusu and Han Xin on the leaving carriage.
This is of course an extremely polite and virtuous behavior of a corporal. Some even say that they look down upon themselves.
After all, as an emperor, you don't need to go to this point. Just stepping out and wanting to give something away is already a matter of great importance.
What's more, he was sent to the carriage. Of course, no one with any brain would dare to look down upon his Majesty.
However, I only feel more admiration and even fear.
With such means and such authority, he can still maintain such a character and not care about his own airs at all.
How dare they have the slightest contempt for such people?
How many people feel that they are superior to others even after they have achieved a little bit of success and power.
At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hooves suddenly sounded in the distance,
Then Hu Hai's voice came from far away,
"Brother Lang, Brother Lang, I'm back. Is the banquet still waiting for me?"
Zhao Lang looked up and saw an excited and satisfied Hu Hai running over on horseback.
Arriving directly in front of him, looking at the crowd that seemed to be dispersing, he couldn't help but said with a bit of anxiety,
"Brother Lang, is this banquet about to break up?"
"I haven't started yet."
He led the people to liven up the whole afternoon today, and he dispersed them just before dark.
Then he rushed here in a hurry, only to find that the banquet seemed to be over soon. How could this be done?
He is not yet powerful in front of these courtiers!
…
At this time, Zhao Lang couldn't help but look at the slave beside him.
The slave could only show a wry smile. Of course he had arranged for someone to hold him back. Unexpectedly, this King Fu also acted unconventionally.
Yes, how could you throw away all the honor guards and ride over here on your own?
It’s just that it’s hard to refuse now. After all, all the courtiers are there, and Fusu and Han Xin are also around.
I could only rack my brains and think of a passable reason, and I was about to speak.
At this time, Zhao Lang seemed to have thought of something and spoke in advance. Hu Hai said,
"You were delayed for so long just now, and I heard that you forced people to shower you with flower petals twice,"
"Now that the banquet is over, don't you want to do it again? How much will it cost?"
Hearing Zhao Lang's words, Hu Hai suddenly felt a little embarrassed. For the sake of prestige, he did let people, many, rain petals twice, and muttered,
"Brother Lang, such an opportunity is not common. It is natural to make the people happy."
Zhao Lang said angrily at this time,
"Do the people want to have fun, or do you want to show off your authority?"
"Do you know that the expenditure this time is enough to allow the people of a medium-sized county to live comfortably for a year!"
Hu Hai curled his lips indifferently,
"Isn't it just a little money? I..."
As soon as Hu Hai finished speaking, he suddenly realized something. He opened his eyes and quickly waved his hands, wanting to say something.
He was deceived and became alert.
But it was already too late, Zhao Lang said loudly at this time,
"The King of Fortune is the King of Fortune. It's really grand. You're right. It's just a little money."
"Yes, I heard that you got a lot of benefits from coming back from the south this time."
"In that case, the cost this time will be left to you!"
"Slave, remember to go to His Royal Highness Prince Fu's house to get the money when the time comes."
The slave on the side immediately responded with a smile,
"Yes, Master."
Then he said to Hu Hai on the side,
"His Royal Highness Prince Fu is indeed generous!"
"What a role model for everyone!"
Hu Hai was so anxious that his face turned red.
"No...I didn't..."
But how could Zhao Lang give him a chance? He laughed loudly and said,
"Since His Royal Highness Prince Fu is treating us, you might as well stay a little longer."
"Fusu, you haven't seen Hu Hai for a long time. It's just a good time to have a good chat."
"Han Xin, you have to work harder. In the future, we will have to rely on King Fu for military expenses."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions suddenly became strange.
The expenses this time have been taken into account. What does it mean to rely on King Fu to spend money on a large army?
You know, normally, no matter how much money the family has, if anyone dares to participate in military expenses, etc., it will be a death penalty for overstepping!
This means that His Royal Highness Prince Fu will not arouse any suspicion.
But the cost is just...
Your Majesty, you are really not treating Prince Fu as an outsider!
Dig into death!
At this time, Fusu and Han Xin, who were about to leave, also came back with strange expressions.
Then he continued,
"His Royal Highness Prince Fu is indeed generous! I and other kings all admire him as much as possible."
…
Hearing this, Hu Hai, who was already a little anxious, immediately got a little excited.
After all, there are other kings now, and it is rare for him to have such an opportunity to compliment him like this.
Just the thought of losing so much money made me heartbroken.
He was happy and worried for a moment, and didn't know whether he should accept it or not.
At this moment, a man with the last name hurriedly arrived in front of everyone and directly reported loudly,
"High sentence
Urgent report! The King of Goguryeo fell ill and died! "
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly looked solemn, and then looked at Zhao Lang.
Then everyone saw Zhao Lang almost turned pale and said,
"What! How could this happen!"
"He's been sending me messages the past few days!"
"Why did you suddenly become ill?"
Seeing this scene, everyone was slightly emotional,
Look, although His Majesty was a little cruel to Goguryeo, he was still kind to the King of Goguryeo.
At least I still have some friendship with the other person, too,
After all, the other party calculated that he was related to his Majesty.
Only the slave on the side was dumbfounded, and the conscience of heaven and earth,
When his master ordered the other party to be killed, he didn't even frown.
It's like squeezing an ant to death.
I never cared about it at all,
But now, everyone, seeing their master's behavior, thought that the relationship was very close.
"The master is still the master after all!"
The slave couldn't help but sigh sincerely in his heart, he still had a lot to learn.
Even in terms of face, if you imitate your master, it will be of no use to you throughout your life.
At this time, Zhao Lang seemed to have finished grieving, and asked with a concerned look,
"How are the people of Goguryeo now? Are they suffering?"
Hearing this question, the messenger couldn't help but feel a little confused. How did he know this?
But at this time, I can only bite the bullet and go back.
"The common people are all fine, but everyone is extremely supportive of Princess Oksoo of the Goguryeo royal family."
"Please make Princess Yushu the Queen!"
Zhao Lang seemed extremely surprised at this time and said,
"How can this be done! Xiaoyu is my concubine
How could I bear to let him suffer? "
The messenger became more and more confused. When he came here, no one told him to face such a situation.
Fortunately, at this time, Chen Ping, who had been beside him, stood up and said calmly,
"Your Majesty, although Goguryeo was disobedient to the king before, it has improved a lot over the years."
"Everyone admires me, Da Qin, and I, Da Qin, should also have compassion."
"Now for the sake of the people of Goguryeo, I would like to ask your majesty to allow the imperial concubine to serve as the queen of Goguryeo and save the people from the fire and water."
Seeing Chen Ping answer, Zhao Lang gave him an appreciative look, but his face still looked hesitant and heartbroken.
"But...but..."
Chen Ping was direct at this time, bending down to salute and said,
"I know His Majesty can't bear it, but the Princess is kind-hearted and has the responsibility to save the people of her country."
"Please, Your Majesty, bear the pain and let the imperial concubine become the Queen of Goguryeo."
At this time, other courtiers also responded, saluted and said,
…
"Your Majesty, please bear with me and give up my love!"
Only then did Zhao Lang let out a long sigh.
"Oh, that's all, that's all."
At this time, other ministers said one after another,
"Your Majesty has mercy!"
At this time, the messenger continued to ask himself another task,
"Please also ask your Majesty to give me a royal title."
Zhao Lang pretended to think for a moment and said,
"I am a royal concubine with a kind and pure character. My royal title is Queen Deshan."
The messenger immediately took the order!
So the matter was settled without any Goguryeo people present.
After the messenger left, Zhao Lang couldn't help but glance at the historian responsible for recording.
The other party faced
Expressionless, with no intention of giving the other party any face.
The responsibility of the historian is to record everything truthfully without interference from the emperor.
Even if the other party kills him by force, other historians will naturally take over.
Zhao Lang didn't force it at this time. Anyway, he just knew what he had done. Don't want a good reputation.
At this time, he glanced at each minister and said loudly,
"What are you still doing? Your Royal Highness, Prince Fu, is treating you to a treat today. I, Da Qin, have a new queen."
"Of course it's worth celebrating! Come on, let's play music and let's dance!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, grabbing Hu Hai who was still hesitant.
Hu Hai couldn't struggle and could only keep up with pain and pleasure.
The pain is because he feels sorry for money. The money he earned from the south is probably all gone.
He could only comfort himself that his father-in-law was right, being cheated by Brother Lang was also a kind of face loss, and others had not had such an opportunity.
This is a sign of intimacy. Look at those aristocratic businessmen. They don't even have such a chance to be cheated.
The happy thing is that he will definitely be able to show off today, and Brother Lang and others will have to support him!
Thinking of this, Hu Hai suddenly became cruel and said loudly,
"Come on, come on! I will pay for everything today!"
After roaring, he took the lead and walked towards the palace.
No one saw it, the historian wrote expressionlessly,
"In the spring of the sixteenth year of the reign of His Majesty Ying Lang, the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty, the King of Goguryeo passed away."
"The emperor is very sad."
"The people of Goguryeo asked Princess Xiaoyu to be their king, but the emperor couldn't bear it. He asked again and again, but reluctantly agreed."
"Called: Queen of Good Deeds! The Emperor congratulated her with songs and dances."
"Fu Wang Hu Hai is uninhibited!"
After finishing writing, the historian
Suddenly a smile appeared on his face,
There is nothing wrong with what he recorded. As for saving a little bit of face for His Majesty, there is no problem.
Of course, such behavior is definitely not good and someone must take responsibility for it.
In his view, Hu Hai, the blessed king, who had always been dissolute and unruly, which undermined the king's authority, was a very good example. If he wrote it down like this, future generations would not be able to find fault with him even if they studied it.
I also fulfilled my duty,
Is there a problem?
no problem!
After finishing writing, the historian followed him in generously. Of course he wanted to eat the banquet.
Anyway, the money spent was not from the treasury, so he could eat with peace of mind.
As a result, singing and dancing flourished inside and outside Xianyang.
The banquet lasted until late at night, and King Fuhai only dispersed after he became very drunk.
Everyone said goodbye in a very formal manner.
late at night,
Zhao Lang hadn't rested yet. Da Qin's wine had no effect on him.
What's more, it's been a busy day today, and he still doesn't have a very important person to talk to.
So after returning to the palace, I changed into normal clothes.
Zhao Lang slowly walked outside the palace of his son Zhao Hao.
At this time, in Zhao Hao's palace, several young people who had just retired from the banquet were chatting excitedly.
After experiencing so many things today, how can they calm down and rest now?
Xiang Dalong was even slightly drunk and said carelessly,
"Brother Zhao, your father is so majestic!"
"When I grow up, I want to be like him. If I say a word, no one will dare to say a word!"
He just saw something in the other party today,
His majesty was different from that of his father, and he was extremely envious.
Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and was thinking about what to say, but found that Lu Yuan next to him was in a daze and couldn't help but ask,
"Lu Yuan, are you okay?"
Lu Yuan came to his senses slightly and couldn't help but said,
"It turns out that a woman can really be a king!"
