Chapter 629: The Huns Are a Disaster After All

After hearing Zhao Lang's stern order, although Nu didn't know the reason, he replied without hesitation,

"Yes, Master!"

Of course, he doesn't care about right or wrong. Making the master so unhappy is the biggest sin of these people!

Zhao Lang's standards are his standards!

The people on this island should be prepared to mine for their master until they die!

After the slave took the order and left, Zhao Lang let out a deep breath.

Because of the problem of time, we cannot punish those real beasts, so we should completely kill these seeds!

But speaking of this, Zhao Lang felt that killing more disgusting seeds would not be a bad thing.

Lying in bed, thinking about some small plans.

Zhao Lang slowly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, as soon as I woke up naturally, I was already waiting outside.

It's time to go to court.

It has to be said that the lives of these noble ministers in the court are not so easy.

At the very least, you must get up early and go to court.

Nu came in with several maids and began to help Zhao Lang wash up.

Zhao Lang quickly said,

"Slave, I will tell the palace later that you go and bring Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu in."

He was still used to being by himself. Besides, he still missed Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu after not seeing them for a long time.

After washing up, he formally put on the official uniform of the Crown Prince of Qin for the first time.

"Master, this dress really fits you."

The slave gently flattered him.

Zhao Lang smiled and said,

"Let's go."

After saying that, he headed towards the court in front of the palace.

Just when I was passing by the palace gate, I vaguely heard a slightly familiar voice coming from outside the palace gate. I was about to take a look, but I saw Zhao Gao approaching from a distance, so I shouted,

"Uncle Zhao."

When Zhao Gao heard the shouting, he felt that his bones were two points lighter, and he quickly said with a smile,

"His Royal Highness, Your Majesty asked the old slave to pick you up."

With that said, he came to Zhao Lang's side, and the slave on the side stepped back very wisely.

The master and apprentice cooperated extremely smoothly.

Zhao Lang didn't feel the slightest bit inappropriate.

"Your Highness, there is no need to be nervous. When the time comes..."

Zhao Gao told Zhao Lang some precautions and led Zhao Lang towards the court.

Although both of them vaguely felt that they had forgotten something, thinking about it, it was of course more important to go to court now.

Soon, the two of them left.

At this time, outside the palace gate, Hu Hai was trembling and said to the guards,

"When can I send the message to my father?"

The guard looked at Hu Hai, who was staring at the dark circles under his eyes and shivering from the cold, and said with a strange expression,

"Master Hu Hai, it was too late last night, and now it's time to go to court again, so just wait a little longer."

"But why don't you go to the inn in the city?"

Yesterday, they watched Hu Hai stay up all night at the gate of the palace.

It's freezing.

Hu Hai said sadly and angrily at this time,

"I don't believe it. For such a big living person, don't these people remember this prince?"

Looking at the stubborn Hu Hai, the guard could only snap his lips and said,

"Then just wait."

At this time, all the courtiers had already arrived in the court.

Today is the prince's first day in charge of the country, so everyone naturally has to arrive early.

Didn’t you see that even Wuchenghou Wang Jian is here today?

Normally, the First Emperor might not be able to see the other party when he goes to court, so isn't this just for showing off?

If Li Si hadn't been demoted to his home, he would probably be here.

And they were also a little worried about Zhao Lang's temperament.

Judging from the progress of the opponent's battle, we can tell that he is as fierce as fire!

The chaos of the Six Kingdoms was put down in less than two years.

Not to mention Goguryeo, there are still Qin troops there helping to maintain public order.

But government affairs are different, nothing can be rushed.

Let me tell you something that cannot be said. Look at how the First Emperor has been so anxious about everything in recent years.

Everyone has seen the result.

It almost touched the foundation of Great Qin!

Therefore, no matter what, I must send a signal to Zhao Lang today. Da Qin cannot afford to be hurt now.

Everyone has a lot of bad news in their hands, just wait for today.

Not long after, following Zhao Gao's announcement, Zhao Lang walked in. The officials immediately saluted and said,

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

Zhao Lang also wanted to return the favor. This was the Qin Dynasty, and the relationship between monarch and ministers was not that of master and slave.

After the emperor and his ministers greeted each other, Zhao Lang sat on the side of the throne.

He cannot sit on the throne yet.

Although Zhao Lang behaved extremely calmly, he looked at the group of ministers below, whom he was not very familiar with except for his teacher Wang Jian.

I felt a little guilty in my heart.

Fortunately, Zhao Gao was there to help, so I didn’t panic.

"Ministers, do you have anything to report?"

The entire court became slightly quiet. The ministers looked at each other, and a slightly fat middle-aged minister said,

"Your Highness, I have something to report."

"There are urgent messages from all the counties in Chu these days. It is already autumn, but there is not enough food and clothing to survive the winter."

"It needs to be dealt with early."

Even though they had already known the news, the faces of the ministers became ugly.

It is not surprising that the Chu region is short of food.

After all, the battle has been fought for so long, but once it is not handled well.

I'm afraid many people will die this winter.

There may even be rebellions.

However, this is a good way to embarrass Zhao Lang. Just throw a difficult thing first and make it difficult for the other party.

The other party is the head of the farm family, and they know it.

In this case, the southern part of Great Qin can no longer even guarantee the most basic food, so you can't make any big moves, right?

Sure enough, they saw Zhao Lang frowning.

Because there is really nothing we can do now.

The counties within Daqin Pass actually still have some food, and after all, they have not been affected by the war.

Don't forget, there are hundreds of thousands of troops in northern Xinjiang.

We can only rely on these people to resist.

Zhao Gao also looked at Zhao Lang. His mission today was also very clear. No matter what the situation was, he would not help.

I will only tell His Majesty the truth about today's situation.

Because this will also be Zhao Lang's battlefield in the future.

Under everyone's gaze, Zhao Lang pondered for a while, and then said,

"I already knew about this."

"Counties in the north will allocate some grain and send it to the south, and then distribute it according to the amount to ensure that no one will starve to death in the winter."

"It'll be fine until the first batch of grain comes out next year."

Winter in the south is relatively short, which is a good thing.

Just listen to Zhao Lang's instructions in a few words.

The ministers were stunned, and then looked at Zhao Lang as if they were a fool.

If there was still so much food in Da Qin's warehouse, would they still be so entangled?

This is a typical general's fighting style. Do you really think that everything can be achieved with just one order?

They want to tell Zhao Lang today that governing the world is not about marching and fighting, and cannot use brute force.

The minister who had just reported quickly said,

"Your Highness, there is not so much food in the treasury anymore."

"The food for the counties in the North must also be guaranteed by General Meng's military rations in Northern Xinjiang."

"Otherwise, once the border is compromised, it will be a big disaster."

After the minister finished speaking, other ministers also expressed their support,

"Yes! Yes!"

Even the Confucian and Legalist officials who wanted to help Zhao Lang could not object.

Because it's true.

No one's food is missing, and the army's food cannot be missing.

Zhao Lang also nodded and said,

"That makes sense."

After hearing this, the ministers were slightly relieved. It seemed that Zhao Lang was not a master of brute force.

Just as he was about to praise him, he heard Zhao Lang continue,

"But it doesn't matter, I will arrange the food myself."

"You are responsible for the execution."

"For the convenience of execution, Chen Ping and Xiao He will help you."

After Zhao Lang finished speaking, the ministers' eyes were confused at first.

What does it mean, 'I will arrange these grains myself'.

Do you have so much food?

That’s the entire Chu land!

Even if it is supplied according to quantity, it is still an extremely huge number!

After confusion, comes doubt,

Who are Chen Ping and Xiao He?

But Zhao Lang didn't give them a chance to investigate further, and said directly,

"Since all ministers have no other options, let's carry it out."

"Is there anything else?"

It would be a pity if talents like Chen Ping and Xiao He were only placed in Liaodong.

Of course, there is no way to directly transfer the two of them to a high position. They just need to give them a chance to show their faces first.

As for the lack of food in Chu Land, he had already made arrangements.

Otherwise, Xiao Bailian would not be allowed to stay there.

Farmers will play a role in organizing distribution.

Liaodong, Qidi, Yunmengze, these places will also provide full support.

The people of Chu will suffer some hardships this winter, but they will not have to worry about their lives.

Seeing that Zhao Lang ended the crisis in Chu Land with just a few words, the ministers were suddenly dumbfounded.

It stands to reason that such a big thing is enough to discuss for an entire morning!

Is this gone?

Just when the other ministers wanted to say more, an urgent message suddenly sounded outside the palace.

"Letter from Northern Xinjiang! The Huns are moving! It seems they intend to go south."

Upon hearing the news, the ministers' expressions suddenly changed slightly.

Zhao Lang's expression was extremely calm at this time.

He doesn't think the Huns will move south on a large scale now because it's too late. This is just a deterrent.

Besides, if something really happened, Meng Tian would have already spent 100,000 yuan urgently.

Sure enough, after the courier delivered the urgent report, Zhao Lang saw Meng Tian's report, which was exactly what he had guessed.

The Huns will not move this autumn, only deterrence and small-scale entry.

But that won’t be the case next spring.

The opponent now claims to have 300,000 cavalry, and I'm afraid they won't give Great Qin two years to recuperate.

Moreover, the Huns are a scourge after all, and getting rid of them earlier would not be a bad thing.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Lang quickly said,

"Tell General Meng that guarding the Great Wall is a great achievement."

He was still very relieved about Meng Tian.

"In addition, tell Han Xin to prepare his troops and horses in the winter and be on standby at any time next spring!"

Hearing that Zhao Lang had arranged military and state affairs in this way, and Han Xin popped up, another unfamiliar name, the minister became a little nervous.

It doesn't seem to be a big problem whether or not we are involved in the relationship, right?

Still wanting to say something, I heard Zhao Lang say,

"Ministers, these two matters are top priorities. Please do your best to cooperate!"

"If there are no other urgent matters, then go ahead and get busy."

The ministers looked at each other for a while, although they wanted to resist a little and express their attitude at least.

But Zhao Lang's military expenses, food and salary, and soldiers did not have to go through them.

There is no room for resistance!

This is more powerful than the First Emperor!

But he could only salute and say,

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Zhao Lang nodded and said goodbye to Wang Jian, who had been at the front and seemed to be dozing the whole time.

After Zhao Lang left, Wang Jian happily left as if nothing had happened.

Although he didn't speak during the whole process, he had an attitude just standing here.

Returned to the palace.

Under the leadership of Zhao Gao, Zhao Lang is preparing to meet his father.

By the way, I would like to report on the situation at court today.

Then I got ready to meet the others.

Let's go to Mei's place first. After all, we have a physical relationship with each other. Of course, when we come back, we need to meet others.

Just after leaving the court, the slave came over and said with a slightly strange expression,

"Master, a message came from the caravan outside. Miss Shang Yan'er wants to see you."

Zhao Lang was slightly startled when he heard Shang Yan'er's name. The other party had been bringing a caravan to serve him.

Why do you want to see him suddenly?

Soon, Zhao Lang's heart began to stir, and he already had a guess.

It should be for the business.

Because of their own reasons, almost everyone in the Hundreds of Families gave him their leader's money.

Even Taoism is no exception.

The merchants probably can’t sit still.

He wanted Shang Yan'er to deal with him.

But the business people made a wrong calculation.

Although Shang Yan'er is indeed good-looking, he has never cared about women's looks.

He is not such a superficial person!

What's more, Da Qin's current productivity is not suitable for large-scale commerce for the time being.

It will take at least four or five years.

At that time, we will look at opportunities and use merchants.

It's a good idea to dry him out now.

Just as he was about to refuse, Zhao Lang's eyes suddenly lit up and two options appeared.

"One, meet Shang Yan'er and be alone in a room, and reward all kinds of fruit and vegetable seeds."

"Two, no, I'll reward you with a strong general."

Seeing these two options, Zhao Lang was slightly stunned.

Various types of vegetable and fruit seeds?

It's rare for a dog system to be so generous.

People can't just eat, all kinds of fruits and vegetables are also extremely important.

It was this request that seemed a bit strange. Why did he have to be alone in a room with Shang Yan'er to get these seeds.

As for the fierce generals, there is a saying that with gunpowder, Da Qin actually does not need individual brave generals!

Besides, he could also try to see if he could get both.

But before he could make a detailed analysis, Zhao Gao on the side reminded him with some caution,

"Your Highness the Crown Prince? Your Majesty is still waiting for you."

Zhao Lang thought for a while. If he went to see his father at this time, he would probably have another detailed chat and it would take a lot of time.

Those seeds are still more important.

So he said,

"Uncle Zhao, please tell my father that I have to go out in a hurry."

“Will be back soon!”

After saying that, he ran outside.

Zhao Gao didn't even have time to stop him, Zhao Lang was already gone.

Zhao Gao could only go back and report first. At this time, a guard came over and reported,

"Prince Hu Hai is outside asking for an audience."

Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment and said doubtfully,

"Where can I ask for an audience?"

Upon hearing this, the guard's expression suddenly became strange.

Zhao Gao was such a keen person. He immediately realized something, slapped his forehead and said,

"Take me to see Prince Hu Hai quickly!"

This time it was his fault!

With Hu Hai's temperament, he's probably going to make a scene.

Zhao Gao hurried to the entrance of the palace and saw Hu Hai hugging Zhao Lang with a wry smile on his face, crying and saying,

"Brother Lang, promise, you won't forget me like this in the future."

"Okay, okay."

"No, you swear!"

"Get out! Get up! I'm in a hurry!"

"Oh! Then you promise me that if I have the opportunity to pretend to beep in the future, you will give it to me."

"OK!"

Then Zhao Gao saw Hu Hai following Zhao Lang obediently.

"Is this one thing destroying another thing?"

Zhao Gao smiled bitterly and then headed towards Qin Shihuang's palace.
