Chapter 424 This scene explains that weak countries have no diplomacy.
Prince Dan of Yan entered the Qin Dynasty and did not receive any respect. He was just like a minister of the Qin State, or an insignificant existence.
When he went to see the King of Qin, he only let Qin Wangzheng take a look and was taken away. This is the reality.
This scene seems familiar.
Weak countries have no diplomacy. This has been the case since ancient times. Today's Great Qin naturally does not need to send protons.
Living in this world, everything is empty, only your own strength is the most important.
The occurrence of this scene shocked Ying Gao greatly. At this moment, he almost understood why Qin Wangzheng allowed all the young masters to be in the same court.
Those who are weak will be helpless, and those who fall behind will be beaten. This is a truth that has existed since ancient times.
"As Young Master of Da Qin, how do you feel about this scene?" As expected, Ying Zheng's voice rang out at this time.
"Father, our Great Qin is now as powerful as a rainbow. The Yan State sent a hostage to establish good relations with our Great Qin. This is a symbol of our Great Qin's national strength!"
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Fusu, the eldest son, spoke first and said.
"Where are you, Jianglu?"
Regarding Fusu's words, Ying Zheng just nodded and did not make any judgment at this time. After all, there were still several young masters in the hall.
At this time, Ying Gao also looked at Fu Su and Jiang Lu. From Fu Su's words, Ying Gao could tell that Fu Su was by no means an ordinary person.
This is an extremely smart man. If he had not been deceived by Confucianism, perhaps the heir to the Qin Empire would be Fusu.
After all, apart from having different opinions and a somewhat weak personality, Fusu was an impeccable talent in other respects.
At this moment, Ying Gao had a clear understanding in his heart, that is, both he and history had underestimated Fusu and others.
The ancestral dragon has eighteen sons, but none of them will become talented.
But it depends on who is the standard. If all standards are based on Ying Zheng, let alone the present, no one can match him even if he has been in China for 5,000 years.
"Father, the Yan State's sending of hostages is in line with our Great Qin's policy of establishing close ties and attacking far away. This is a good thing for my father's great cause of unifying the world."
While Ying Gao was thinking, Jiang Lu also spoke, directly facing Ying Zheng and said: "Father, although Yan is a small country, it is still a country. I think this is a good thing, but we must not let Prince Yan go."
Return home.”
"If this person can become the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom, he must be the most outstanding person in the generation of the Yan Kingdom. Sooner or later, our Great Qin and the Yan Kingdom will become enemies!"
…
After listening to Jiang Lu's words, Ying Gao nodded, but he did not speak, but picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
These members of the royal family are usually inconspicuous, as if they are ordinary people, but at this critical moment, they immediately stand out.
It is true that members of the royal family are precocious and no one should be underestimated.
"Master Gao, what do you think?" At this time, Ying Zheng still did not comment, but looked at Ying Gao.
Because of Ying Gao's specialness, at this moment all the civil and military officials in the dynasty focused their attention on Ying Gao. They were searching in their eyes, hoping that Ying Gao would have a different opinion.
Aware of all this, in full view of everyone, Ying Gao slowly put down the tea cup, then raised his hand towards Ying Zheng and said.
"Father, my sons and ministers looked at Prince Dan and his entourage, and they only realized a few figures!"
"Weak countries have no diplomacy!"
"What is diplomacy?" Ying Zheng's eyes widened and he asked Ying Gao.
"Diplomat, the way of verticality and horizontality!"
…
"Um."
Ying Zheng nodded, his sharp gaze fell on Ying Gao and the other three, and said: "What a weak country without diplomacy. This scene can be clearly expressed in one sentence."
"You must always remember that if the Qin Dynasty is not strong today, you will be standing in the court of other countries, just like Prince Dan of Yan."
"promise."
…
This is how the court meeting ended.
"General Wang Jian, General Meng Tian, the state captain Wei Liao, the pedestrian department Dun Rui, the court captain Li Si, the state captain Wang Wan, and the young master Gao stay."
After Ying Zheng left and all officials retreated from the court, Zhao Gao sent a royal edict.
"promise."
No matter what others think, Ying Gao is satisfied in his heart. After all, even if Ying Zheng is not left, he plans to find Qin Wangzheng.
There were some things that he had to report to Ying Zheng, not to mention that at this time, he was going south, so necessary handovers were still needed.
…
"I'll wait to see the king!"
Walking to the study room of Xianyang Palace again, Ying Gao, also behind the officials, quickly bowed solemnly to Ying Zheng and said.
"My son, I pay my respects to my father. My father will be king for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty will be for ten thousand years——!"
"Everybody sit down!"
Ying Zheng gave an order and said to Zhao Gao: "Serve tea!"
"promise."
…
After Zhao Gao left, Ying Zheng glanced at the ministers and said in a deep tone: "Master Gao Cheng, he got news that in the extreme south, there is a kind of rice that can produce polished rice."
"The yield per mu is roughly the same as that of local crops, but as long as there is sufficient light and water, it can be harvested twice a year. From planting to harvest, it only takes about 50 days."
"So, Young Master Gao plans to lead his army south to destroy the Yelang, Gouting and other tribes, all the way to the extreme south, to seize this kind of rice for our great Qin."
Having said this, Ying Zheng looked at the surprised ministers and said, "I have called you all in the study today to discuss this matter."
"Who will lead the army going south, how many troops are going south, and everything else. I have prepared a meal today, so you can speak freely. If you are wrong, you will not be guilty!"
"promise."
"Your Majesty, are there really two crops of rice a year?" As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Wang Wan spoke immediately. Even at this moment, there was still shock in his tone.
This is incredible!
After all, they all know what having two crops of rice a year means to Da Qin.
This means that the people of Great Qin will not starve to death, and it also means that Great Qin's war potential increases.
"have!"
Nodding, Ying Zheng faced the ministers and said word by word: "I believe that Young Master Gao will not joke about such a thing."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead my army south to seize this rice for our great Qin!" At this moment, Wang Jian stood up, his eyes full of excitement.
He knew very well that wherever Young Master Gao wanted to go, there must be good things. The previous time Young Master Gao led his army to attack Xihai County and other places, he gained countless salt lakes.
This completely eliminated the shortage of salt in the Qin Dynasty. This time, Ying Gao was going south again. Wang Jian believed that nine out of ten places in the extreme south actually had this kind of rice.
For the sake of Da Qin, he wanted to go south in person!
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to go. For the sake of the Qin Dynasty, I think we must go south, and we can even postpone the war to destroy the country!"
At this moment, Meng Tian also spoke, and his tone was so firm that Ying Zheng was surprised.
