"Report to your Majesty, the young master is back!"
Because they were running too fast, the soldiers were still breathing heavily when they spoke, so that they spoke intermittently.
"No one can make loud noises outside the court when they come back...!"
Ying Zheng held back his patience and waited for the soldiers to finish speaking. He was about to ask Heibingtai to pull him out for punishment, but he seemed to suddenly think of something and stood up suddenly, "Wait... who did you just say is back?"
"Young Master! It is the Young Master who has led the navy officers back. The general is in a hurry to report, so he has lost his etiquette. I hope your Majesty will punish you!"
Seeing Ying Zheng's old face before, the soldiers realized and quickly admitted their mistake.
"I'll punish you six times! Take me with you quickly to see where the young master has gone?"
Unconsciously, Ying Zheng came up with a catchphrase from Xiao Zhengtai, and quickly ran down the steps and walked out of the hall.
"The young master is back?"
"Great, now that the young master can calm down the atmosphere in the court, we don't have to worry about His Majesty losing his temper for no reason!"
"You old man, aren't you afraid of His Majesty's punishment for saying this?"
"Haha! Your Majesty is in a hurry to greet the young master and has no time to talk to us!"
"Well, that's right. The young master has made such a great contribution this time, so he must be firmly established as the crown prince!"
…
The ministers followed behind Ying Zheng and discussed quietly.
Everyone is also happy for the return of Little Shota!
"My son, please see your father!"
"I will finally see your Majesty...!"
Not far after Ying Zheng left the Qilin Hall, he met Xiao Zhengtai and others.
"No gifts, no gifts, please get up quickly!"
Ying Zheng waved his hand and motioned for everyone to get up.
"After three months, my son has grown a lot taller, haha!"
Seeing his son come back after performing meritorious service, Ying Zheng's old face smiled as brightly as a chrysanthemum.
"That's of course. What I ate at sea were crabs the size of an adult's hand, drank Shiquandabu sea turtle soup, and grilled fresh eight-clawed squid. I wonder if I didn't grow taller!"
Xiao Zhengtai deliberately used delicious food to seduce him.
According to what I learned during this period, this old guy has three major hobbies!
One is power!
The second is longevity!
The third is delicious food!
After his popular science, immortality is definitely impossible!
Power is also expanding!
Only delicious food can achieve its goal by relying on Xiaoshota!
Looking at the entire Da Qin, he is the only one who can create unique delicacies!
"Crabs the size of your palm? What other fish?"
Sure enough, Ying Zheng's attention was attracted and he asked with bright eyes.
"I will report this to my father slowly later!"
"Um...that's fine!"
Ying Zheng felt very unhappy when his curiosity was aroused but was turned back again.
But there was nothing he could do. Bai Lai was staring at him with his eyes behind him. He couldn't keep asking about those delicacies in front of all the ministers!
"Ahem..."
So after coughing twice, he stood up and asked, "Has Xu Fook been found?"
"Of course, not only did we find Xu Fu and bring him back to Da Qin, we also brought Ji Zhun and Wei Man back with us!"
Little Shota looked up with an innocent little face and said with a smile.
If you don't know better, you will definitely think that he is just an ordinary child, and there is no way you would know that he is the commander-in-chief of this navy!
"Have Ji Zhun and Wei Man also been brought back?"
Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yo! We really destroyed three kingdoms in a row!"
"That's for sure. Wang Li will definitely not lie in front of His Majesty!"
"In this way, that sea area will belong to our Great Qin...!"
The ministers started discussing again, and they were all very excited.
Although Wang Li had brought the news back in advance, they were still very excited when they heard Xiao Zhengtai tell it personally!
"Father, I have left some of the ships in Jizi Kingdom and Wodao. The remaining ships are full of loot. The soldiers are still guarding the ships. Father, it is better to send the Ministry of Revenue to take inventory quickly, so as to make it easier for them to do so. Soldiers, go home early!"
After briefly explaining the situation, Mr. Shota handed over his hand and asked to play.
"Loot? How much is it?"
Hearing this word, not only Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, but Zhang Han's interest became even higher.
It was a good choice to make him the Minister of Household Affairs.
Only in but not out!
When he heard that he was going to make money, his eyes brightened brighter than anyone else's.
But when it comes to asking for money, he can find 10,000 reasons to cry about poverty, and even say that the treasury has no money!
"I didn't get much food, but as for gold and silver...if the dozens of carriages from the user department came to pull it, they would have to pull it from morning to night!"
Xiao Zhengtai tilted his head, thought for a long time, and made a metaphor.
"What……?"
Zhang Han's jaw suddenly dropped.
Dozens of carriages have to be pulled from morning till night?
How much loot was captured?
"Do you really mean what you said?"
Ying Zheng's body also trembled slightly with excitement.
"My son, can I still lie to you?"
Little Shota couldn't help rolling her eyes.
That is the wealth of three countries, and Wo Island is also rich in jewelry and gold. Isn’t it easy to fill the cabins of several ships?
"Zhang Han?"
"I'm here!"
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring someone with you to count the loot for me!"
Ying Zheng couldn't wait to issue the order.
"yes!"
Zhang Han was waiting for these words, and ran towards the household department as fast as he could.
"Wang Ben, go and bring Xu Fu and others over to me!"
"yes!"
After handing over the spoils of war to Zhang Han, Ying Zheng thought of that old liar Xu Fu again.
This guy had tricked him back then. If it weren't for this son, he probably wouldn't have been able to return to the palace and would have died on the way eastward!
While Wang Ben went to take the people, Ying Zheng led the ministers back to Qilin Hall.
In just half an hour, Wang Ben and several soldiers came in escorting the three of them.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... you...?"
Xu Fu raised his head and was surprised to find Ying Zheng's face glowing red.
He clearly remembered that when he left, Ying Zheng had a gloomy complexion, often fell ill, and even his mind was a little unclear!
But now it seems that I am full of energy, my eyes are bright, my back is straight, and I am very healthy!
What happened in the years he left?
Why did Ying Zheng change so much?
"What? Are you surprised that I'm still alive?"
Through his eyes, Ying Zheng seemed to see through his thoughts and mocked in a deep voice.
"No, no, no!"
Xu Fu's head shook like a rattle.
Even if that's what he was thinking, he didn't dare to admit that his life was in Ying Zheng's hands!
"Hmph! You don't have to deny that those poison pills you led people to refine almost killed me. If it weren't for Fei Yu, I would have died!"
Ying Zhengqi slapped the dragon case with a slap, and the sharp shout made Xu Fu tremble all over.
"Young Master?"
After being on the ship for so long, Xu Fu already knew the names of these young masters in Da Qin, and couldn't help but set his sights on him.
