Chapter 774 True Loyalty
Listening to Hu Hai's cries outside the camp, Zhao Lang felt a little sorry. Of course, it would be good to beat the opponent's arrogance.
Otherwise, now that I have the throne, I don’t know how arrogant I will be in the future.
"Dad, it's already dark at night. You can rest in the army tonight. I will send someone to take you back to the city early tomorrow morning."
Zhao Lang said at this time.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shihuang raised his eyebrows slightly and said,
"What, you won't go back to the palace tomorrow?"
Zhao Lang nodded and replied with a smile,
"Dad, I also want to send my brothers to Lishan."
Zhao Lang also took the opportunity to tell him about his sworn sworn relationship, and Qin Shihuang's brows furrowed even deeper. Of course, he had heard the report from the Black Ice Guard.
However, he didn't take it seriously at the time.
Of course he understands this method of winning people's hearts. .
But now, Zhao Lang actually personally surrendered to these people and sent them to Lishan. To be honest, this is not in line with etiquette.
To put it simply, these people don’t deserve it.
Seemingly reading Qin Shihuang's thoughts, Zhao Lang quickly said,
"Dad, when I became sworn brothers, it was indeed to inspire military morale. But now that we have become sworn brothers, we have to do something as brothers."
Seeing Zhao Lang's sincere look, Qin Shihuang asked,
"Aren't you afraid of being criticized by the nobles? Losing the royal family's face?"
If it only concerns Zhao Lang alone, he won't ask more questions. After all, has this kid done enough weird things?
But now, Zhao Lang uses the identity of the Prince of Qin to represent the royal family. This identity is white for the new military uniform of a former slave, which is indeed detrimental to the face of the entire royal family.
Zhao Lang was startled for a moment. To be honest, after two lifetimes of experience with things like face, he was very open-minded.
Can you eat face?
But now it seems that Dad still has a bit of idol baggage.
So he smiled and said,
"Dad, those people like to say, just let them say it. If our faces could be exchanged for food, our children would be willing to exchange them for the common people to fill their bellies."
Hearing this, even if Qin Shihuang thought he had a broad mind, he couldn't help but choked. What does it mean to exchange the royal face for food?
Where do all these weird ideas of Lang'er come from?
He suddenly said angrily,
"The dignity of the Qin Dynasty since the founding of the People's Republic of China is so unworthy in your eyes?"
Seeing Qin Shihuang's expression change, Zhao Lang still smiled and replied,
"Dad, my son is doing this just to make the Qin Dynasty last longer, and to make the face of our royal family no longer so narrow-minded."
"Who said it's good if the nobles say yes, but if the common people say yes, isn't it good?"
"If you want the Great Qin Dynasty to last for ten thousand years, you cannot rely on these nobles. After all, they have to take care of their own families. Only by relying on the people of the world can you make the Great Qin Dynasty ten thousand years even possible!"
After Qin Shihuang heard this, he still said with some reluctance,
"But these new troops are not ordinary people either."
A slave will be a slave.
Zhao Lang smiled even brighter at this time and said,
"Dad, we treat these new troops like this, how can we treat the common people badly?"
Qin Shihuang was suddenly stunned. He felt that what Lang'er said made sense.
In the end I could only say,
"Hmph, Lang'er, stretch your hand over here!"
Zhao Lang was stunned for a moment, not knowing what his father was going to do, but he still stretched out his hand honestly.
Snapped!
There was a crisp sound and a burst of pain came from the palm of my hand.
"Dad! Why did you hit me?"
Zhao Lang took a hit, covered his hands and said.
Qin Shihuang said seriously at this time,
"This is to tell you not to think you are smart and get carried away when doing things! Always remember that you must be cautious in important affairs of the country!"
"Do you understand?" Gu Lao
When Zhao Lang heard his father say something completely unrelated to what he just said, he estimated that the other party was more likely to become angry, but he still said,
"Yes, Dad."
Qin Shihuang nodded at this time and said,
"Okay, I'm going to rest first."
After saying that, he walked outside with satisfaction. He just said, I can't control my son anymore?
It doesn't make sense.
When he got outside, he saw Hu Hai sitting on the ground crying. He didn't want to pay attention to him, and Qin Shihuang walked directly past him.
When they arrived at the gate of the camp, they saw Meng Tian who also had a white cloth tied on his arm.
"I have met your Majesty."
Meng Tian smiled and saluted.
Qin Shihuang pointed to the other party's arm and said with a smile,
"You've always been steady, why are you messing around with Lang'er this time?"
Meng Tian looked solemn and replied,
"Why did your Majesty say this? In my entire life, I have never seen anyone with more profound thoughts than His Royal Highness."
After hearing this, Qin Shi Huang had nothing to say, waved his hands and said,
"Okay, those nobles will not let go of this opportunity to attack Lang'er. You should think carefully about how to help Lang'er deal with it."
"Don't make the royal family look too ugly."
"Otherwise, your Meng family will also be embarrassed."
Meng Tian replied with a smile,
"It is an honor for me to be able to embarrass myself with His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Qin Shihuang suddenly couldn't stand it anymore. How come these people all changed so quickly after getting along with Lang'er?
He said angrily,
"You are now a Marquis of Zhongxin. If you like to embarrass yourself, I can't stop you. Zhao Gao, go back to camp!"
The reward that Meng Tian received when he came back this time was naturally the top Chehou, named Zhongxinhou.
After Qin Shihuang finished speaking, he took Zhao Gao and left here.
After Qin Shihuang left, Meng Tian stood up and looked at Zhao Lang's tent with some emotion. He actually did not expect that in some places, their Crown Prince could actually see further than His Majesty.
Because he has been marching all the way these days, but he knows how loyal the soldiers in the army are to the royal family!
Yes, some of the elite border troops of Great Qin looked down on the new slave army, but watching Zhao Lang carrying the coffin along the way, the soldiers' attitude towards the royal family was already fanatical!
If His Highness the Crown Prince is like this to the new slave army, will His Highness the Crown Prince still be worse to them?
As long as the royal family doesn't do something stupid to destroy the city wall, the army's absolute loyalty to the royal family can last for at least two generations from now on!
This is true ‘loyalty’!
A few days later, Xianyang City gradually returned to calm, but a rumor slowly spread,
"The royal family actually serves slaves in white. It is simply a shame."
"Who says it's not the case? How can the royal family mix with slaves?"
"This is simply a stain on the royal bloodline!"
The rumors among the nobles also slowly spread to the people, but the rumors among the people have undergone some small changes.
The beginnings are similar, but the conclusions are different.
"This time that one actually gave it to the slave army..."
"Snapped!"
"Hey! Why are you hitting people!"
"Hmph, let's not talk about the one you are arrogantly talking about. Nowadays, there are no sergeants in our Daqin who are slaves!"
"The bones of those new soldiers are in the imperial mausoleum! My brother is also there. If you keep talking, I will take you to see the official!"
Soon, the rumors disappeared without a trace among the people.
After Zhao Lang saw off the soldiers, he also returned to Xianyang, but he went directly to Heming Academy because some special guests came there.
"Brother Xiang, is this the craftsman who traded with Xiang Yu?"
Zhao Lang looked at an old man in front of him and asked Uncle Xiang who was sending someone over.
