Chapter 639: Isn’t There Even an Hour Today?

Zhao Lang had almost always been suppressing him before, but now he had successfully won for a while, and the ministers naturally felt relieved.

Everyone is discussing to implement this matter as soon as possible.

Some ministers and nobles also frowned slightly after the initial excitement.

An older minister, a nobleman, even felt that something was wrong from the beginning.

Zhao Lang didn't give them any time to discuss!

And they were clearly talking about whether to conquer the people, but in the end they paid for it and sent all the slaves out?

Naturally, I have doubts in my heart, and I want other ministers to calm down and talk about this matter.

But I heard Li Si suddenly said leisurely,

"Humph, don't be too happy, this matter has not been finalized yet! I must persuade His Highness the Crown Prince!"

But immediately someone said,

"Prime Minister! This is the result of the court meeting! The attendants also have records!!"

"Attendant! You haven't sent the record in for His Royal Highness to seal it!"

As he spoke, the attendant sent the records in.

The older minister and nobleman was about to stop him, but as soon as he moved, he noticed that Wang Jian suddenly stepped in front of him.

Although Wang Jian was old, his battlefield power accumulated over the years directly interrupted his actions.

Wang Jian opened his eyes slightly, radiating cold light, and whispered to him,

"The treasury is empty and the Northland is in crisis. Do you have a better idea?"

The older minister was suddenly startled and looked at

If he still doesn't understand what's going on, then all these years of his life will be in vain!

The elder minister's beard trembled, but he still insisted on replying in a low voice,

"Even so, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should speak out! We and other ministers are not..."

But before he could finish speaking, Wang Jian laughed sarcastically and said,

"His Royal Highness, please speak carefully, will you listen?"

"Are you still asking for it!? The empire is in danger! Now I just want you to provide some money and manpower, but you are reluctant to give up?"

"Didn't you tell me a few days ago that this Great Qin is also the Great Qin we are waiting for?"

Upon hearing this, the elder minister fell silent.

He knew that Wang Jian was telling the truth.

In terms of government affairs, the First Emperor had suppressed all ministers for decades. They would not let Zhao Lang reach the top so easily!

This is not just a simple fight for power.

An overly powerful emperor is not a good thing for Da Qin.

But now, the country is in a difficult situation, and their behavior is indeed inappropriate.

Exhaling slowly, the elder minister said to Wang Jian,

"Okay! I will suppress my colleagues on this matter! But after this incident! I won't let go easily again!"

After hearing this, Wang Jian returned to his original state again. He only smiled after all the courtiers left.

This group of people can't beat Zhao Lang now. In the future, when Lang'er becomes more powerful and has full wings, they won't even think about competing with him!

Wouldn't it be better to abdicate honestly?

Looking at Li Si who was also lagging behind, Wang Jian said calmly,

"Has His Highness the Crown Prince told you?"

What the other party just mentioned was obviously to settle this matter.

It would be weird to say there is no ghost.

Hearing the question, Li Si smiled bitterly and replied,

"I said hello in advance, but I didn't go into details. At first, I didn't even react."

He has reacted now!

He also understood that Zhao Lang wanted his true reaction.

Otherwise, these veterans would not take the bait so easily.

Wang Jian nodded and said quickly,

"Then get things implemented as soon as possible. You won't be able to train very good soldiers in a winter."

"There is no other way to let these slaves consume it."

Li Si also nodded affirmatively.

Soon, the two also left the court.

At this time, behind the court.

Zhao Lang has already led people to the resting place.

Zhao Lang looked around with a straight face and asked Zhao Gao,

"Uncle Zhao, the noise here can't be heard outside, right?"

Zhao Gao nodded and returned,

"Your Highness, I can't hear you anymore, it's just..."

Before Zhao Gao could finish his words, Zhao Lang burst out laughing. Of course he was a professional at suppressing laughter, unless he couldn't help it.

"Hahahaha~uh..."

Naturally, he felt happy. Now, in terms of soldiers and money, he was finally much more relaxed.

How could you not be happy?

Halfway through his laughter, he choked back his laughter because a majestic middle-aged man came in front of him.

"Dad, why are you here?"

Zhao Lang said a little embarrassed.

It was a bit bad for him to fall to the ground when someone saw his crazy look.

Qin Shihuang said angrily at this time,

"If I don't come, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble."

Zhao Lang showed a smile and said,

"Dad, the child is fine. Now the big gap in soldiers and money has been solved."

Looking at Zhao Lang in front of him.

In fact, Qin Shihuang was extremely shocked. He had just watched all the ministers fall into Zhao Lang's trap step by step.

Zhao Lang first proposed an impossible condition to irritate all the ministers, and then lost his ability to distinguish in the mess.

Mention the word slave again and again, and let the ministers take the initiative to mention it.

Just what if no one mentioned it?

Qin Shi Huang's heart moved and he asked directly,

"Lang'er, what if no one mentioned this suggestion of using slaves to serve in the army just now?"

Hearing this sudden question, Zhao Lang was slightly startled and then reacted.

Tsk, dad is indeed dad, and his plan was actually seen through.

He replied with a smile,

"If no one really mentions it, I'll still arrange my own manpower."

"Of course, it's best if ministers and nobles mention it. Our own people will always believe in our own people."

Qin Shihuang showed an expression that was indeed the case, but he soon said with a slightly solemn expression,

"Lang'er, you can keep this matter a secret for a while. I'm afraid the ministers will find out later."

"Afterwards, I'm afraid the ministers won't let it go easily. When the time comes, they will compete with each other for power, so you must be prepared."

These people followed him to conquer the Six Kingdoms. Even if Zhao Lang controlled their minds for a while, they would eventually understand.

Zhao Lang was not worried at all and replied with a smile,

"Dad, Uncle Li and my teacher are pressing down this time. Even if they come to their senses, they will have to get things done as soon as possible."

"And this time, the boy will issue a call-up order, and all people can join the army voluntarily. In this way, there will be no disadvantages of forced recruitment."

"As for other things, we will discuss them later. Solving the current crisis is the most important thing."

As for the ministers' struggle for power, there is no problem.

He originally planned to decentralize power!

Who is willing to deal with political affairs until late at night every day? ! !

Doesn’t it feel good to him to be happy holding a soft girl?

Of course, it’s not easy to say this to dad now.

Qin Shihuang stopped asking any more questions at this time and just said,

"As long as you know what's going on, okay, hurry up and give the order. This must be done as soon as possible."

Zhao Lang nodded and quickly left with the people.

Qin Shihuang looked at Zhao Lang's leaving figure and couldn't help but reveal a hint of relief.

At this moment, an attendant hurriedly came over and said,

"Your Majesty, this court meeting record requires the seal of His Highness the Crown Prince."

At this time, Qin Shi Huang directly took out his seal, stamped it, and then said to Zhao Gao in a cold voice,

"Tell those old people that this is what I want!"

"If the northern border is in danger, whoever dares to spare his own life will not be spared by his entire family!"

Some things are not as easy as Zhao Lang thought, so he should be more careful.

Hearing this, Zhao Gao couldn't help but tremble, sighed slightly in his heart, and then took the order and left.

One day later, a political order was sent from Xianyang to various places, causing shock in the world!

The northern border is in danger, so all people in the Qin Dynasty are allowed to join the army voluntarily, regardless of their status or status!

Those who join the army will have their entire families treated like the common people of Great Qin!

No one can stop it!

Next spring, go north to fight against the Huns!

Soon, the entire Da Qin army camp became lively.

Especially in the north.

A few days later, Zhao Lang was handling government affairs in the palace. While taking a break, he asked his slave,

"Has there been any trouble among ministers recently?"

Nu Wei thought for a while and replied,

"Master, no, recruitment is going extremely smoothly everywhere."

After hearing this answer, Zhao Lang frowned and said,

"That's not right. How come there isn't anyone making trouble?"

He had already been prepared to deal with it. After all, these ministers should have reacted by now.

How come they are all so obedient?

Could it be that he is really the son of destiny?

As soon as the emperor's anger was revealed, all these ministers were submissive?

Even Uncle Li and Wang Jian cannot convince everyone unless...

Zhao Lang quickly thought of something and smiled bitterly.

He got it.

Just as he was thinking about whether to find his father, an attendant hurriedly walked in and gave the slave a bamboo tube for delivering messages.

The slave quickly said,

"Master, it's Miss Mei who has sent a message, inviting you to meet outside the city."

Zhao Lang was not surprised when he heard the news.

Now the recruitment order has been issued. Although the order does not specify that slaves can also join the army.

However, slaves are also in Da Qin.

Of course, you can also join the army.

And those benefits are almost unexplained.

Therefore, Mei must have received the news that the other party was looking for her because of this matter.

I just don’t know what the other person will think.

You must know that what he promised Mei at the beginning was that after taking office, he would order the removal of all slaves.

Now, due to the situation, these slaves have to pay their own lives in exchange.

Because it is foreseeable that no matter which army it is, these slaves will definitely be used as cannon fodder by the generals.

This was an undeniable fact for him.

To put it crudely and directly, it is to exchange the life of a young slave for the freedom of the whole family!

It's so cruel!

But this is different from the promise he made to Mei.

Mei should have objections and want to see him,

We can't escape this matter, we can only try to make it clear to the other party, but why do we have to make an appointment outside the city?

It doesn't matter, you will know when you meet, so he stood up and said,

"Walk."

The slave quickly arranged the manpower, and the group headed out of the city.

At this time, outside Xianyang City, beside a maple forest, a motorcade was parked here.

On the carriage in the middle, a beautiful woman looked around from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone.

At this time, the maid next to the beautiful woman pouted and said,

"Miss Mei, since you don't want to let the young master wander, why do you have to leave?"

"What if Young Master Lang doesn't come today?"

After hearing this, Mei just smiled without explaining, and still looked into the distance wholeheartedly.

Soon, a group of fast horses came into Mei's sight. When she saw the extremely handsome young man at the head, Mei suddenly smiled.

Then he stood on tiptoe and shouted,

"Alang! Here!"

Soon, the team was heading towards the convoy.

Looking at the convoy in front of him that was obviously going to travel far, Zhao Lang couldn't help frowning and walked directly in front of Mei.

"Alang, you're here!"

Mei directly hugged Zhao Lang's arm and said happily.

Zhao Lang frowned slightly and said,

"You want to leave? Is it because of that edict?"

Mei didn't hide it and nodded directly.

Zhao Lang frowned deeper, sighed slightly, and said,

"Mei, I'm sorry, but I also have my own reasons."

"Now the North is in danger, the South has been initially determined, and is not stable. Da Qin indeed has no one available. This is also..."

Zhao Lang was about to give the other party a good explanation, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mei.

"Alang, I know, you are not to blame for this matter."

"I remember you said that true independence must be achieved by oneself!"

"This edict gives us lowly people a chance to truly and completely get rid of our lowly status."

Hearing this, Zhao Lang was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Mei would say this, and then asked,

"Then why do you want to leave?"

He thought Mei was angry, but now it seemed that Mei understood so thoroughly that there was no way she could blame him for this.

Mei said with a firm expression at this time,

"Alang, this is an opportunity for all of us lowly people, but not everyone can understand it!"

"I'm going to the counties in the North to tell everyone!"

"You must seize the opportunity!"

Zhao Lang was silent for a moment. The previous deadline was for those ministers, and ordinary slaves did not have to worry about the deadline.

But, just like this...

"Mei, it will be very hard for you."

Zhao Lang said.

Mei showed a bright smile and replied,

"A Lang, you said that people must have ideals, otherwise what's the difference between them and salted fish?"

Hearing this, Zhao Lang just wanted to slap himself twice.

Let you pretend to be a good boyfriend of an artistic young man!

Damn it, retribution is coming!

But now, I can only swallow this bitter pill in my stomach, and said dryly,

"Mei, you don't have to work so hard on yourself."

Mei smiled and said,

"I don't have to work hard! This time I will make all the humble young men join the army!!"

Seeing that Mei had made up his mind, Zhao Lang had nothing to say but could only say,

"Fine."

"Tianyi, you take Dumb and follow Mei."

When Tiantian protects Mei, he will feel more at ease.

Every time he travels now, he is surrounded by black ice guards, so there is no problem with his safety.

Mei did not refuse, but was extremely obedient and held Zhao Lang's arm.

The two talked again, and Zhao Lang said with a bit of reluctance,

"Okay, be careful along the way. If anything happens, ask Dumb and the others to send me a message."

After saying that, he turned around and left. It was almost evening.

But Mei had no intention of letting go, and Zhao Lang looked at the other party with some confusion.

But he saw the other party's charming eyes saying,

"Alang, don't you have an hour today?"

Zhao Lang's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said,

"have!"

Soon, the slave on the side waved his hand, and everyone dispersed one by one.

With the carriage as the center, a place is isolated!

Ever since, there is a poem saying,

Stop and sit in the maple forest at night, the maple leaves are as red as the flowers in February.
