Chapter 950: Which Foot Came in First?

9

At this time, inside the palace.

Zhao Lang was smiling as he looked at the received news in his hand, couldn't help but shook his head and said,

"Hu Hai's temper has not changed. He actually sent a small note asking the people of Xianyang City to pick him up. Fortunately, he could see it."

Regarding the other party's operation, his eyes were opened.

Of course, it doesn't matter, others just like the excitement.

"Then let him make trouble, just pay attention to safety."

Zhao Lang said calmly.

The slave on the side smiled and said,

"Prince Hu Hai is lucky to have an elder brother like you, Master."

He was telling the truth. Generally speaking, everyone in the royal family has a hostile and competitive relationship with their brothers.

In order to compete for the highest position, it is normal for brothers to kill each other whenever there is an opportunity.

How could he be like his master?

Zhao Lang just smiled indifferently, although there was a lot of blood on his hands.

But now he is more and more able to understand what his teacher Wang Jian said, killing is indeed the worst way.

I no longer care about this matter and quickly asked,

“What’s going on with the officials who are latest to deal with businessmen?”

Now that the world is stable, all he has to do is watch and prevent too much turmoil in Great Qin.

And now Daqin's business is developing extremely rapidly.

The taxes he received were extremely substantial, but he also had to keep a close eye on the officials responsible for dealing with merchants.

Otherwise, problems will easily occur.

The slave will return soon,

"Everyone under the master is watching. There is no big problem right now. The most we can do is treat guests to dinner. This is human nature."

Zhao Lang's expression turned cold after hearing this.

"We must take precautions against this matter and write out detailed rules as soon as possible. Officials and businessmen are not allowed to have any private contacts. Once discovered, they will be removed from their posts."

Thanks to the blessing of his previous life, he knows the methods of these businessmen very well.

Don't think it's just a dinner treat, but if those officials find that they have worked hard for a year, it is not enough for these businessmen to have a meal.

The mentality will change.

The fall began at this time.

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Nu's face and he said,

"Master, is this too harsh? If this continues, no one will be willing to serve the government."

Now that everyone is an official in Da Qin, don't they just want to live a better life?

If the restrictions are too strict, then the official position will be meaningless.

Zhao Lang said calmly,

"Remember my words, when no one in Da Qin wants to be an official, that will be a good time."

"The official salary is enough for them to live a much better life than ordinary people. If you want more, just resign from the official position and go into business to make money."

He just wants to select those who are willing to devote themselves to building a better Daqin, regardless of personal interests.

Only when these people become officials can they truly serve the Qin Dynasty and benefit the people.

A trace of confusion flashed in the slave's eyes, and he couldn't quite understand what his master meant.

But I came back soon,

"It's the master."

Just as the slave was about to take the order and leave, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside, and a black ice guard quickly appeared in front of Zhao Lang and reported,

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have an urgent message. Your Majesty, Princess Ying Yinman, died suddenly of illness."

Hearing this, Zhao Lang was stunned for a moment, and then asked,

"What did you say?"

Of course he heard what the other party said, but there was something he couldn't understand.

Black Ice Guard soon said again,

"The princess Ying Yinman died suddenly of illness."

This time, there was a hint of confusion in Zhao Lang's eyes.

What is death due to illness?

He obviously saw the other party doing well not long ago, went out energetically to meet his father, and even talked to him.

Why did he suddenly die of illness?

How can such a big person say that he is gone?

He really hoped it was a fake, but the letter in Hei Bingwei's hand had his father's seal on it.

There's no way dad would joke with him about something like this.

Zhao Lang remained silent for a long time without speaking.

He still has feelings for Ying Yinman,

When we first met, the other party was a unruly woman from a wealthy family, but she was not bad-hearted.

Later they served as soldiers together in Liaodong. Although they were usually noisy, when the other party couldn't help at critical moments, they never held them back.

Later, he met his father, and he even helped him out a few times, and he was generally caring.

I thought life would go on like this forever.

But I didn't expect to hear the news suddenly.

"Owner?"

At this time, the slave shouted with some concern.

Zhao Lang came back to his senses and asked with a complicated expression,

"Did my father tell me how to handle the funeral arrangements for the emperor's sister?"

Black Ice Guard returns,

"Before I come down, Your Majesty has ordered that the princess Ying Yinman be cremated."

"Everything in the funeral should be kept simple."

Hearing this, Zhao Lang opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

It was also his order to keep all royal ceremonies simple.

But he didn't expect that Ying Yinman would be the first to use it.

I guess my father also wanted to set an example for other royal members.

After all, Ying Yinman is his favorite daughter.

Zhao Lang waved his hand tiredly, and the Black Ice Guard immediately retreated.

He suddenly understood why it seemed so sad to say goodbye to friends nowadays.

Because in the current environment, every separation may be a separation of life and death.

Ying Yinman is a member of the royal family, so he does this, let alone others.

As for other aspects, he didn't think much about it.

Even if someone has the intention to murder, it is impossible to hide it from dad's eyes.

It's just that it's impossible for him to see each other for the last time.

I don’t know how long the silence lasted, but suddenly there was a burst of noise outside the palace, and the sound gradually came towards the palace,

Soon Hu Hai's voice came in,

"Brother Lang, Brother Lang, where are you?"

"Why didn't you pick me up when I came back today? I told you that the people in Xianyang City were very enthusiastic just now, and I received a lot of gifts."

"I also brought you some good things from the south!"

"Hey? Why are you guards stopping me? Don't you know me? Get out of my way!"

As he spoke, Hu Hai walked in.

When he saw Zhao Lang sitting in his seat, he moved closer, completely unaware that the atmosphere in the room was a bit gloomy.

The slave next to him quickly winked at the other party, and Hu Hai said inexplicably,

"Slave, I haven't seen you for so long. Is there something wrong with your eyes? If something goes wrong, go and see Mr. Qin."

"Brother Lang, come and see what I have brought for you!"

Hu Hai was so excited that he wanted to show off.

Zhao Lang finally raised his head at this time, looked at Hu Hai and asked,

"Which foot did you come in first just now?"

Hu Hai was confused for a moment and felt that this question was a bit familiar, but he returned honestly.

"Left foot."

Zhao Lang nodded and said to the slave beside him,

"Prince Hu Hai has violated etiquette. Look at how much money he has now. He should be fined."

Upon hearing this, Hu Hai stood stunned on the spot.
