Chapter 560: Never Be Able to Stand up Again!
After hearing the summons, Fusu wanted to go in, but was blocked by Hu Hai. After Zhao Lang left first, he got stuck in front of him.
He entered the palace proudly.
At the gate of the palace, I met Gao.
He consciously went behind Fusu.
Several people were led outside the palace by their attendants.
After a very formal announcement, a few people entered the palace, and everything was very orderly.
Even Hu Hai kept staring at Zhao Lang's feet, watching which one of the other's feet went in first, and then he followed suit.
At this time, Qin Shihuang was sitting at the top, with Zhao Gao standing aside.
"My son has met my father!"
Several people saluted at the same time, and Zhao Lang did not make any special move.
After some etiquette, Qin Shihuang said slowly,
"You just came back. How are you doing?"
Naturally, he knew most of the princes' conditions, he was just looking for an excuse.
Zhao Lang didn't speak when he heard the question. He had already talked about the previous situation.
Hu Hai wanted to speak excitedly, but Fusu who was ready at the side got the better of him.
"Father, I am extremely worried about you when I heard the news at the border. I hope you are fine."
Qin Shihuang nodded, looked at Fusu who had some wind and frost on his face, nodded and said,
"Yes, Meng Tian also told me that you did a pretty good job on the border."
Fusu did not maintain his own identity on the frontier and bullied ordinary sergeants.
On the contrary, being kind to others will make you popular.
Although sometimes I have minor conflicts with others because I adhere to my principles, it is normal.
How could there be harmony in the army?
Meng Tian himself said that even if Fusu did not have the status of a prince, he could still be a general with a thousand men.
This is not an easy task.
Therefore, he was quite satisfied with Fusu's performance this time.
It can be said that he has not followed Zhao Lang for so long.
Hearing Qin Shihuang's praise, a hint of joy appeared on Fusu's face!
Ever since he could remember, his father never seemed to treat him well and was always extremely strict.
Even if he is better than other children of the same age, he can only get a cold sentence to continue to strengthen, and then it is gone.
And now, his father actually praised him!
He quickly suppressed his pride. He had more important things to do today!
Fusu looked slightly solemn and said,
"Thank you, Father, but I have one more thing I want to report!"
Qin Shihuang was in a good mood at this time and said,
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Fusu came out directly at this time and said in an admonishing way,
"My son, I come here to remonstrate with you. Prince Ying Lang is cruel!"
"Although they defeated the Goguryeo army in Liaodong, they actually united with the Hu people and sold the entire army into slaves!"
"And now he is holding the leader of Goguryeo hostage and causing trouble in Goguryeo!"
Fusu told one by one what he saw on the border and the news he heard.
Finally, he said with a bit of sadness and anger,
"Father, my Great Qin's bad reputation is spreading throughout all the countries in the North!"
"If everyone regards Da Qin as the enemy, Da Qin will be in danger!"
After listening to Fusu's words, Qin Shihuang's face turned livid. Seeing this scene, Hu Hai hid directly behind Zhao Lang.
Because he knew very well that this was the prelude for Qin Shi Huang to beat someone up.
Fortunately, Qin Shihuang did not take action this time. After a while, Qin Shihuang said with a cold face,
"Lang'er, is this true at this time?"
After hearing the question, Gao Xiao looked at Zhao Lang with gloating.
Da Qin's reputation is still very important.
It's no different from some small countries that go back on their word or do some bad things, and they just do it.
If a big country has no reputation, it will be difficult to live on its borders.
Otherwise, other countries are not stupid. Sometimes they have to pay some price for a good reputation.
Zhao Lang directly sold a country's defeated army as hard work. This behavior was too bad.
Then next time, other small countries will fight to the death against Da Qin!
Because if you lose, you will be sold into slavery!
As a result, Da Qin will actually increase its consumption a lot.
Facing the question, Zhao Lang said extremely calmly,
"Father, this is indeed the case."
When Qin Shihuang heard Zhao Lang calling him father, he was still a little uncomfortable, so he still called him father. He felt comfortable.
"Why do you do this?"
Because from an overall and long-term perspective, Fusu's concerns are not completely unfounded.
Zhao Lang replied at this time,
"Father, do you still remember what you said when my son led people to help Liaodong?"
Qin Shihuang glanced at Fusu and said,
"I say, now that the Qin Dynasty has neither soldiers nor food, it has to rely on yourself."
Zhao Lang nodded and replied,
"When I arrived in Liaodong, my troops were only 20,000, while Goguryeo's army was over 100,000!"
"And all 2,000 people guarding the Great Wall were destroyed!"
"The people of Liaodong are in dire straits!"
"My son, I would like to ask Fusu, the people of Goguryeo are pitiful, aren't the people of Da Qin pitiful?"
These words made Fusu blush, not because of shame, but because of anger!
When did he say that he didn't care about the people of Qin! ?
What he said was that Zhao Lang was too cruel!
But how could Zhao Lang give Fusu a chance to speak at this time?
Then he said,
"Father, my sons and I have worked hard and defeated Goguryeo with heavy losses, but the rebellion in Chu has started again!"
"My son can only lead the army to help."
"But in Liaodong, the total number of troops is less than 20,000. My subordinates still want to take away 10,000, leaving 10,000 to guard nearly 60,000 prisoners? How is this possible?"
"Besides, there is no food in Liaodong, and my sons and ministers cannot be detained."
"If we put it back, what if the other party comes back? Do the people of Liaodong deserve to suffer?"
"So I could only hand these people over to the barbarians, and there was no money transaction."
"I just took some cattle and sheep from the barbarians."
"The total price is only 40,000 to 50,000 gold, and my ministers have used it to settle the people."
Listening to Zhao Lang's words, Qin Shihuang's expression slowly softened, and when he finally heard about 40,000 to 50,000 gold, his eyes lit up even more.
Is this battle so profitable?
Fusu's face turned pale when he heard this, and then asked,
"Then what's the point of sending people to Goguryeo?"
"Do you know that the entire Goguryeo is now in ruins! Even if it means destroying the country, it shouldn't be so cruel!"
Zhao Langli ignored him and said directly to Qin Shihuang,
"Father, there was a rebellion in Goguryeo. It was the leader of Goguryeo who took the initiative to invite his ministers to put down the rebellion."
"Look, the credentials are all here."
After saying that, Zhao Lang took out the cloth that had been signed by the leader of Goguryeo from his arms and gave it to Qin Shihuang.
After taking a brief look, Qin Shihuang couldn't help but blush.
Even if he is made a tyrant, the most he can do is destroy the country.
But what Zhao Lang did, as long as the Qin Dynasty is still there, will prevent Goguryeo from ever being able to stand up again!
