Chapter 178 My Son Is Kind, I Am Very Relieved

After deciding on the general policy for dealing with Rome in the future, Zhao Lang no longer struggled too much.

It may take twenty to thirty years or even longer for his plan to really take effect!

This will be a long-term, subtle plan!

He was going to take a look at Zhao Hao's situation now. He got up and walked while asking the slave next to him,

"Haoer, has there been any movement since yesterday?"

Yesterday, he did not deny Zhao Shang's achievements in the court.

Moreover, the actions taken against merchants are relatively secretive.

Therefore, in the eyes of Zhao Hao and other ordinary courtiers, it was Zhao Shang who temporarily took the lead in this competition.

This is a big blow to Zhao Hao, who has always been relatively smooth.

He just wanted to take the opportunity to see how Zhao Hao behaved in the face of blows and failures.

A person who can truly take responsibility should know how to face setbacks and failures.

Because this will be the most common thing a person faces in his life.

This is the reason why nine out of ten people are unhappy in life.

You know, even if he himself had the help of the dog system, he was not fooled around by his father.

I also encountered a lot of setbacks.

Not to mention, he was almost killed by the Huns when he was on the grassland.

Therefore, if the other party really wants to do it in the future and his position rises, then he still needs to have this mentality.

After listening to their words, Nu thought for a moment, then smiled and said,

"Master, His Highness Zhao Hao has not come out since he returned to the palace yesterday."

"But from the reports, there were faint sounds of quarreling."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lang immediately smiled and said,

"It seems that this kid still needs to practice his mental state."

"Let's go and take a look with me."

After saying that, he led the people towards Zhao Hao's palace.

Not long ago, in Zhao Hao's palace,

Xiang Dalong, Lu Yuan, Chao Cuo, Zhou Yafu and other young people were gathering together. They have been basically inseparable in the past few years, and no one stopped them when they entered the palace.

Zhao Hao looked indifferent, but everyone else looked slightly dissatisfied.

Xiang Dalong quickly said with a bit of atmosphere,

"Brother Zhao, when are you going to tell the teacher that Zhao Shang is cheating? How could he turn that small village into a town in five years!"

"It's not just about relying on the merchants! If you do this, I can also ask other people to help!"

In the past few years in Da Qin, he studied in Xianyang for the first two years. He followed Zhao Lang whenever he had nothing to do, so he also called him teacher.

In the next few years, he came to Zhao Hao's village and helped out together. According to Heming Academy, this is called an internship.

He is also conscientious, and he has a share of credit for the development of this village.

I originally thought that I would be praised well in the court, but who knew that I would steal the limelight from Zhao Shang!

How could he bear this?

Last night I wanted Zhao Hao to go find trouble for the other party, but Zhao Hao refused.

So early this morning, he urged the other party to find the teacher.

After hearing Xiang Dalong's words, Zhao Hao returned with a smile,

"It's just temporary success or failure, there's no need to fight like this."

Xiang Dalong became even more unconvinced.

"I'm not afraid of losing. My father has long said that victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs! The teacher said the same!"

"What makes me angry is that this person didn't follow the rules at all! He used other means to win!"

"I'm not convinced!"

His stay in Da Qin for so long was not in vain! Don't get angry just because of winning or losing.

Hearing this, the others nodded slightly. They actually had the same idea, but they didn't express it so fiercely.

If Zhao Hao doesn't speak, they won't say much.

Zhao Hao still showed a smile at this time and said,

"This just reminds us that although someone has made the rules, it doesn't mean we have to follow them."

"You know, no one dares to violate Father's orders now, but in the future, apart from the laws of heaven and earth, there will be no rules that cannot be violated!"

"As long as you can do good to your own people, what does it matter if you use means other than the rules?"

"So, this short-term failure has nothing to do with it. I will win it back next time."

He always remembered his father's words, all this is for growth.

Success in competition, of course, is growth.

But failure, so what?

And in his opinion, the lesson he learned this time was much more profound than before.

Hearing this, other people on the side. His eyes lit up slightly. It was extremely difficult for the other party to have such an opinion!

But Xiang Dalong was still extremely unconvinced and was about to say something.

A cheerful voice came from outside the palace, and then Zhao Lang led someone in and said,

"Okay, Hao'er, you have really grown a lot in the past few years."

Seeing Zhao Lang, several young people stood up and saluted.

Zhao Lang waved his hand and sat directly among them without any airs.

"Father, why are you here?"

Zhao Hao said with some embarrassment at this time, his father must have heard what he just said.

Zhao Lang returned with a smile,

"Your brother used some tricks to win this competition. Naturally, dad will come and take a look to prevent you from feeling resentful."

"But now it seems that there is no need to worry."

"I'm here to tell you that this matter has been dealt with. According to the rules, you are the final winner."

He had just come over and indeed waited outside for a while without letting the guards inform him.

After hearing Zhao Hao's words, he felt somewhat comforted.

He has always taught his children not to pay too much attention to temporary wins and losses.

But there are not many that can really be taken to heart.

Faced with temporary wins and losses, most people will still be a little impatient.

Hearing Zhao Lang's words, several young people around Zhao Hao smiled.

Sure enough, they still won!

Xiang Dalong even said carelessly,

"I just said that teacher, you are the most fair!"

"Brother Zhao, you won this time, why don't you hurry up and get the reward!"

Xiang Dalong quickly urged Zhao Hao next to him. Since there are winners and losers in competition, there will naturally be rewards!

This time, Zhao Hao is very likely to skip the management of a single city and go directly to manage a county!

This improvement is huge!

It can also save a lot of time, and in the process of approaching that position, one step ahead of other princes and princesses!

Zhao Lang smiled, pretending that he didn't hear the other party's murmuring words outside just now.

Turning to look at Zhao Hao, he wanted to see what the other party would do.

Facing this good news, Zhao Hao didn't show much joy on his face, but quickly returned,

"Father, is my brother okay?? He is still young, and there are many business people around him. It is inevitable that he will be deceived sometimes."

"Father, please be patient and don't punish me too much!"

Seeing this scene, the others were stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Zhao Hao did not take the opportunity to ask for a reward at this time, but defended Zhao Shang.

Zhao Lang also narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a complicated expression,

"There are rewards for winning, and there are penalties for cheating."

"You can plead for him, but your reward will be gone."

"Originally, I wanted to hand over Yunzhong County directly to you, so you have to think clearly."

Hearing this, the slaves on the side couldn't help but look at their master in surprise.

You must know that Yunzhong County was the base on the grassland before the owner knew his identity. The significance of it is much greater than the management of the county itself.

To exaggerate, if you get the management rights of this county, you will not be far from that position!

It is impossible for ordinary people to resist such temptation!

At this moment, Zhao Hao said without any hesitation,

"My child, I am willing to use my reward to avoid punishment for my brother!"

Xiang Dalong next to him came back to his senses and said quickly,

"Brother Zhao, what are you talking about!"

He was a little confused by the other party's words just now. It was such a good opportunity to suppress the other party.

But when Zhao Hao made such a move at this time, all his previous efforts were wasted!

Zhao Lang also kept looking at each other, and Zhao Hao continued,

"Father, I am the eldest brother, and I also have the responsibility to set an example for my younger brothers and sisters. This time he did not do it well, and the children are also at fault."

"So, I beg your father to agree."

Seeing Zhao Hao's sincere expression, Zhao Lang took a deep look at him, and then said with a smile,

"Okay! You finally look like a big brother!"

"In that case, I agree that you will be assigned to a small city near the seaside! Stay for another five years!"

Others felt numb after hearing this. From managing a county relatively close to Xianyang to a small city by the sea, it was a world of difference!

But Zhao Hao still said without any hesitation,

"Thank you, Father!"

Xiang Dalong angrily sat down next to him. He was too lazy to pay attention to the other party. This business was such a loss.

At this moment, Zhao Hao spoke again,

"Father, I have one more request, and I hope you can agree to it."

Only then did Xiang Dalong cheer up a little. No matter what, after making such a big sacrifice,

Of course there are some requirements!

Zhao Lang raised his eyebrows slightly and said,

"you say."

Zhao Hao said very sincerely at this time,

"Please also ask my father not to tell my brother about this matter, lest he feel burdened."

Xiang Dalong closed his eyes this time. This business was a huge loss!

Even Zhao Lang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said with a complicated expression,

"My son is kind, and I feel very relieved."

Of course Zhao Lang had doubts about whether the other party used this method on purpose.

Come and pretend to be a responsible elder brother who cares about his younger siblings.

After all, he has used this method of retreating in order to advance.

And based on his understanding of his son, the other party is not this kind of person.

But even if the other party is pretending, as long as the other party can keep pretending, he doesn't think there is any problem.

On the contrary, he will be even happier. Anyway, from the beginning, he never thought about cultivating a harmless "good person".

Such people will only harm Da Qin!

With one sentence, this matter was settled. Then Zhao Lang looked at the young people in the palace, quickly smiled and said,

"Are you still used to it after all these years?"

Xiang Dalong was no longer in the mood to talk at this time, and was sulking aside.

Zigma, who has the most lively personality, said first,

"Your Majesty, everything is fine. There are more delicious and fun things to do in Daqin than in the grassland."

"I just want to know, when can I marry Ahao?"

Zhao Lang laughed and said,

"You are old enough. You can do it at any time. I will send you a letter tomorrow to complete the ceremony. Once the reply comes, you can get married."

Zigma immediately wanted to put on a bright smile and salute to say thank you.

It actually made Zhao Hao blush.

Zhao Lang was watching and turned to Lu Yuan,

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said,

"Your Majesty, I want to go back."

It has been five years now. She heard from businessmen from the Han Dynasty that the fight between her two brothers has reached the final stage and is extremely fierce!

She wanted to go back and see if there was anything she could do.

Zhao Lang's eyes changed slightly and he quickly said,

"You have been away from home for five years, it would be nice to go back for a while."

"I'll have someone escort you."

In the past few years, the other party has been by Zhao Hao's side. When he met Zhao Hao, he never avoided him and received corresponding training.

She is no longer the innocent little girl she was back then.

Of course there are some of his ideas, such as the fact that the other party may become the queen of the big man.

He didn't expect the other party to be able to reach that position after returning to Dahan this time.

Again, winning or losing in life does not happen in a moment.

The example of Goguryeo is there, it's just subtle.

After getting Zhao Lang's agreement, Lu Yuan suddenly showed a smile and said,

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Hao on the side wanted to say something, but in the end he remained silent.

After Zhao Lang praised Zhou Yafu and Chao Cuo, he stood up and left.

After Zhao Lang left, Xiang Dalong said angrily,

"Now that's good. I've been working hard for you for several years, but in the end I only got a small town by the sea."

"You didn't even sell favors to your brother, you're in trouble!"

In his opinion, this transaction was a huge loss.

Zhao Hao just smiled and said,

"Disadvantage is a blessing."

Then he said to Lu Yuan on the side,

"I'll go back with you."

Lu Yuan shook his head and replied,

"It's a long journey, and your status no longer allows you to do this. Don't worry, I'll come back as soon as I go back."

Seeing the other party's firm look, Zhao Hao could only agree.

Zigma on the side said with a smile,

"Then you have to hurry up, otherwise you can only use what I have used!"

These words directly made Lu Yuan blush.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Soon the two started fighting.

This made Xiang Dalong on the side feel a little depressed and muttered,

"These men and women are not ashamed either."

But then he remembered something and chased outside.

At this time, Zhao Lang led people outside the palace, and there was a burst of shouting from behind,

"Teacher, teacher, please wait for me."

Zhao Lang turned around and saw Xiang Dalong running all the way in front of him, and then asked coyly,

"Teacher, why didn't you see An An when you came back this time?"

Hearing this, Zhao Lang's expression suddenly became slightly strange.

(An An)
