Xinzheng, Han Palace
Originally, Han Fei and Li Si made an agreement to solve the case within ten days, and all the civil and military officials in South Korea breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, that is the current Sikou, Ninth Young Master Han Fei. After returning from Xiaoshengxian Village, he solved the case of the Yin soldiers robbing the salary, and directed the operation to rescue the former prince. He fought back and forth against the Baiyue rebels with extraordinary methods. Fan Xiang must have been confident before he made a bet with Qin envoy Li Si.
Of course, even if Han Fei fails, so what?
It's nothing more than a cession of land. Anyway, the reason for this cessation of land is not their fault. If someone takes the blame, they naturally don't care.
As for the land that was taken away...what does that have to do with them? South Korea has ceded a lot of territory to Qin over the years. Today it will cede five cities and tomorrow it will cede ten cities. This is not bragging.
Besides, you can get peace by paying some land, so why not?
However, news came yesterday that the Qin envoy suddenly changed his mind, which made Han Wangan and all the civil and military officials worried.
In the Korean court, King Han was sitting on the throne. Looking at Li Si's empty hands, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Why didn't this Qin envoy bring a banner?
You know, the Jingjie is a symbol of a country, and it is also the safety guarantee of the Qin envoy. Is this Qin envoy so careless that he forgot to take the Jingjie with him?
"Lang Guan Li Si, pay homage to the King of Han."
Li Si bowed and saluted, completely losing the arrogance he had when he met Han Wangan last time.
But Li Si's actions shocked everyone in the Korean court.
Li Si just did not call himself "Qin Envoy", but called himself "Lang Guan", and his behavior of saluting and not holding the banner of Qin inevitably led to a suspicion.
"What do you mean, sir?"
Han Wangan was a little puzzled. Why was Li Si suddenly no longer an envoy?
I originally thought that if Han Fei really failed to solve the case in time, he might be able to negotiate with Li Si, an acquaintance, to cut off a few cities.
"A few days ago, I made a bet with your country's military commander without permission. When the king and the prime minister learned about it, they were furious and dismissed me as the envoy of Qin. I replaced you with another person as the envoy of Qin to visit South Korea."
Li Si lowered his head in shame, with a gloomy look on his face. He seemed to be afraid that Han Wangan would not believe it, so he took the initiative to pass on the edict stamped with King Qin's gold seal to Han Wangan and a group of Korean ministers, such as the Fourth Young Master Han Yu and the Ninth Young Master. Han Fei, General Ji Wuye, Xiang Guo Kaifangdi and Blood-clothed Hou Bai are also the five pillars of the Korean court today.
The King of Qin's golden seal was probably not forged, and as an envoy of Qin, there was no need to make up such lies. However, after reading the edict, Han Fei glanced at Li Si slightly, his eyes full of bitterness and helplessness.
He knew that Ying Zheng was in Xinzheng, so it was definitely not difficult to affix the golden seal of King Qin. And the words on this edict... are strong and smooth, with rounded lines, well-proportioned structure, even thickness of stipples, and strong but light strokes. This is clearly the handwriting of my junior brother.
"Li Qing was dismissed because he cared about peace between Qin and Han, and it was also due to me. Someone came and took out the set of "Shen Zi" written by Shen Zi from the royal library a few days ago. Come and give it to Li Qing."
It has to be said that although Han Wangan has no talent in governing the country, he is indeed good at intrigues.
Knowing that although Li Si came from Confucianism, he admired Legalist ideas as much as Han Fei, so he gave him a set of "Shen Zi" written by Shen Buhai himself.
As for whether this thing can be regarded as a generous gift, Han Fei's eyes were full of envy and jealousy. The set of "Shen Zi" written by Shen Buhai himself was a treasure that he had been asking for for many years but had not received. .
Li Si had also heard about this in his chats with Han Fei in the past few days, so Li Si's excited eyes became a little more excited after seeing this set of "Shenzi".
Because, the thing that his senior brother loves but cannot be held in his hands, played with and kneaded all day long, and accompanied day and night. This feeling is really...pleasant.
And Han Wangan gave this generous gift not just for Li Si alone.
After all, Li Si, who no longer has the status of Qin's envoy, is still just an official with a low official position. Although he is regarded as an attendant of King Qin Yingzheng, given the current situation in Qin, the attendant of King Qin Yingzheng is not as effective as a servant in Lu Buwei's house.
By doing this, he could be considered as buying horse bones with a lot of money.
It's like telling the next Qin envoy, what are you doing with a salary of only a few hundred dan a year?
You see, your predecessor has already given generous gifts to South Korea before he even started taking care of him. If you relax a little during the negotiations, I, South Korea, will definitely give generous gifts to you.
Naturally, Han Fei could see Han Wangan's plan. He took a deep breath, suppressed the envy in his heart, and resisted looking at the scrolls of bamboo slips. His beautiful peach blossom eyes were slightly narrowed.
He always felt that his father's plan was going to fail.
Ying Zheng and Li Si were both involved in this matter. Could the identity of the new Qin envoy be...
"Envoy Qin, come to the palace!"
"Envoy Qin, come to the palace!"
"Envoy Qin, come to the palace!"
As a famous chamberlain shouted, bursts of dull sounds came from outside the hall. It was the sound of hard wooden flags hitting the stone steps.
A slender figure wearing the black court uniform of the Qin Dynasty held a banner and slowly walked up the steps. The autumn breeze came slowly, and the white grate hanging on the banner moved with the wind.
The Chao Banshee standing next to Han Wangan saw the blurry figure coming from outside the palace, her moist red lips slightly raised, revealing a dazed smile, like a good wife watching her husband return home.
The smile flashed.
But Bai Yifei looked at the Chao Banshee next to Han Wang An as if he was feeling something. The cousins looked at each other. Although the Chao Banshee's face did not show any other expression, Bai Yifei's bloody eyes did. Still staring closely at the fair and pretty cheeks of the trendy succubus, as if she had discovered something.
It wasn't until Ji Wuye gently pushed Bai Yifei and told him that it was rude to stare at the trendy banshee like this at the court meeting that Bai Yifei slowly withdrew his gaze as if reluctant to let go.
After Bai Yifei withdrew her gaze, Chao Banshee's plump snowy body swayed slightly with her breath.
She was a little careless and showed such an expression during the court meeting.
However, this was all because his charm was indeed making her unable to extricate herself more and more.
Although he had fascinated her in the past, Zhang Ji had a different kind of charm after changing into Qin's black court uniform.
And there is only one person who can fascinate the trendy banshee.
He stared at the approaching figure with an open face in disbelief, rubbed his eyes, and wondered if he was dazzled.
That slender figure wearing the black court uniform of the Qin Kingdom, the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, the straightened spine and confident steps...
Kaifeng suddenly remembered the clan uncle he had met when he was seventeen years old, who was known as "when he is angry, the princes are afraid, and when he lives in peace, the world is destroyed".
That year, he also entered the Korean court. From the King of Korea to the ministers of cultural relics, they were all trembling and fearful when facing the clan uncle.
A name also came out of Zhang Kai's mouth, with a look of shock and astonishment on his old, wrinkled face.
"Qin Prime Minister Zhang Zi?!"
