Seeing Young Master Gao being slapped by his sister, he almost cried.

Young Master Ronglu and Young Master Jianglu on the side burst into laughter.

The young master couldn't stand it anymore and rushed over to get into trouble with the two brothers.

Zhao Tuo saw this and his heart moved slightly.

Among the three children, the son is taller and is nine years old this year.

Ronglu was eight years old and Jianglu was only six years old.

Because they are young, the three of them can play together.

In addition, Fusu, who was still standing in the room with a slight smile, and Ying Yinman, whose blush had not dissipated from his face, were standing next to him.

There is quite an atmosphere of harmony and joy among the five brothers and sisters.

only.

Zhao Tuo felt his heart tremble, because the scene in front of him made him involuntarily think of the tragic ending of these Qin Shihuang's children in history.

There were five brothers and sisters in the house. Fusu, the young master Jianglu committed suicide, the young master Gao was buried in Lishan, the situation of Ying Yinman and the young master Ronglu was not clear to him. They were probably dismembered and killed.

Zhao Tuo's eyes couldn't help but fall on Fusu. He needed to observe this eldest son of Qin Wangzheng again.

At this time, Fusu also acted like an eldest brother and reprimanded the three younger brothers who were fighting: "Master Zhao is here, why can't you mess around? Why don't you come over and see me?"

Although Ying Yinman did not speak, she slightly raised her eyebrows and stared.

The three young masters were immediately startled. Under the pressure of their eldest brother and sister, they hurriedly came over and saluted Zhao Tuo solemnly and said hello.

"I've met Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Tuo also hurriedly greeted them with greetings. Seeing these young masters, he thought to himself that he might be able to find an opportunity to get the brown sugar out in the future.

That thing is not only a weapon to deal with these children and increase their favorability. On the battlefield, it can also replenish blood sugar and provide a large amount of energy to the soldiers, which may be useful in some important combat missions.

Several people greeted each other and sat down.

Fusu cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Fusu took the liberty of inviting Mr. Zhao to come because we want to hear about Mr. Zhao following the Marquis of Wucheng to conquer the Chu land. We want to expand our knowledge and gain knowledge. Today we are asking Mr. Zhao to give us advice."

"Yes, yes, my brother and sister both said that Mr. Zhao told stories well. My father also asked me to come and listen to understand how our Qin State conquered the world."

The young master Jiang Lu also shouted.

Zhao Tuo's heart moved.

The three young masters came to Fusu Palace to listen to his stories, and there was actually something behind the story of the King of Qin.

Zhao Tuo smiled and said: "In this case, Zhao Tuo should tell you everything he knows, so that the merits of our soldiers from Qin in serving their lives on the battlefield can be heard by all the gentlemen."

As he said that, Zhao Tuo's eyes fell on the face of the princess who was facing the case, and saw that her eyes were also bright and full of curiosity.

Zhao Tuo cheered up and began to formally tell the story of the battle to destroy Chu.

He first talked about the gathering of 600,000 troops of the Qin State, which were stationed on both sides of Huaiyang and Shangcai under the command of Wang Jian, hoping to compete with the Chu army to consume the country's strength. The State of Qi was persuaded by the remnants of the Four Kingdoms and sent 100,000 troops to garrison Zhencheng to threaten Qin's borders. He, Zhao Tuo, was ordered to face the danger and led his troops to Dongjun to confront the Qi army. Facing 100,000 Qi troops, Zhao Tuo pretended to fall from his horse and deceived Qi State Commander Tian Chong, and finally won a shocking victory.

Fusu sighed: "This great Sima of Qi State is quite like a gentleman of ancient times."

Ying Yinman hummed: "There is no gentleman on the battlefield. He acted like a fool."

"Yes, yes, that Qi State Chief Sima is a fool. Zhao Jun obviously pretended to fall from his horse, but he really believed it, and sent someone to greet him, and even gave Zhao Jun the art of war. When he was escaping, this man actually Wearing a handsome flag, isn’t this intentional to attract pursuers? Hahaha, that’s so stupid.”

The three young men burst into laughter.

Fusu shook his head and said: "What you are saying is that times have changed, and practicing a gentleman's way on the battlefield is just bringing humiliation to oneself. This great Sima of Qi State is just like what Xianggong of Song Dynasty did in the past. When fighting with troops, we should still use the same methods. The art of war is the foundation.”

Zhao Tuo nodded secretly in his heart, Fu Su admired the actions of Qi State's Great Sima, but he was not pedantic and knew how to use military skills on the battlefield.

He continued to talk, talking about Xiang Qu's Suishui battle, the Chu army's cauldron and boat sinking, and the Qin army's hanging sheep and drums. Then he talked about Zhao Tuo's withdrawal from Pengcheng to the north, using the seven bases of the defile to consume the Chu army, and finally using the fire ox. He defeated Xiang Qu and won the victory in one fell swoop.

Before the cheers of the crowd died down, Zhao Tuo then said that Xiang Yan had led his troops east again, intending to trap the Qin army and kill him.

When hearing this, although everyone already knew the result, they couldn't help but sweat for Zhao Tuo.

It was not until they heard that Zhao Tuo did not attack recklessly, but sent cavalry to investigate and discover Xiang Yan's trick, that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Tuo then talked about how after learning about the victory in Huaiyang, he immediately went south and attacked the capital of Chu. However, in this section, he omitted the King of Chu's surrender to him and the method of sharing the merits among the generals. This matter is related to the merits of the generals and cannot be disclosed.

When it was said that the King of Chu surrendered naked with his face covered with cud, Zhao Tuo specifically looked at Fusu.

Fusu looked calm.

Zhao Tuo secretly nodded. This time Fusu invited him to tell a story, so it was an opportunity for him to test Fusu.

Looking at it now, after his last awakening, Fusu finally found his own position in Qin Chu's confusion, and his attitude towards Chu, which had always influenced him, changed.

But this is just the beginning, the highlight is yet to come. While paying attention to Fusu's expression, Zhao Tuo continued to talk about Xiang Yan supporting Xiong Qi as the false king, and then he was ordered to lead a surprise attack on Huaiyin, defeating Xiong Qijun with embarrassment on all sides, and then Xiang Yan was defeated on the banks of the Huai River, and finally led his troops all the way south, crossing the river to pursue Xiong Qi.

When I heard that Xiong Qi was resisted by the nobles of Wu in Jiangdong and fled south to Yue, he was captured by Yue King Wuyou and wanted to sell him to Zhao Tuo.

The three young gentlemen laughed.

"Okay! The traitor betrayed my father and our country, Qin. He deserves to be captured by the Yue people!"

Ying Yinman looked at Fusu worriedly.

Zhao Tuo also looked at Fusu.

There was no anger or sadness as expected.

Even after hearing Zhao Tuo's story about Xiong Qi seeking a sword and committing suicide, Fusu's expression remained calm. I just asked one last question: "Zhao Jun, before the traitor committed suicide, did he personally tell the reason why he betrayed our Qin country?"

Zhao Tuo replied: "He is the Xiong family of Mi, a descendant of the King of Chu. The incident in Huaiyang was just to save the country of Chu."

Fusu was silent.

After a long time, Fusu stood up and looked at Zhao Tuo.

"If it weren't for Zhao Jun's advice in the past, Fusu would still not know his identity and position. Zhao Tuo's kindness will be remembered in Fusu's heart for the rest of his life."

With that said, Fusu bowed and saluted Zhao Tuo with a very solemn expression on his face.

"Young Master's words are serious. It is Zhao Tuo's honor that a few small words can benefit the Young Master."

Zhao Tuo returned the courtesy.

Judging from today's performance, Young Master Fusu has completely emerged from the shadow brought to him by Xiong Qi and Chu State, and has also made clear his position as the Young Master of Qin State.

"The king used to scold Fusu because his son was not like his father and had a rough skin. Now Fusu can clarify his identity and maintain the same stance as the king. Then the king will change his view of him. He is the eldest son. As long as I don’t bore the king, I have a high chance of succeeding to the throne.”

"If the king can decide and declare his successor as soon as possible, there will be no chance of the Dune Change, and the bad history will be completely changed."

Zhao Tuo breathed a sigh of relief.

When he was in Shouchun, the capital of Chu, and accompanied Wang Jian to accept the surrender of King Chu, he had thought about the successor of the Qin Empire.

After much thought, he still felt that Fusu's succession was the most likely and the best choice.

Hu Hai was the first to rule it out.

As for the prince Gao, the prince Jianglu, the prince Ronglu and others, they are young and the middle son, so they are not favored. The possibility of succeeding to the throne is small, and it is not beneficial to Zhao Tuo.

In addition to Fusu's benevolent personality, there is another important reason why Zhao Tuo likes him the most.

He and Ying Yinman are siblings.

If Zhao Tuo is Princess Shang, then Fusu is his uncle and brother-in-law who is very close to him.

In this case, as long as Fusu was not completely stupid, it would be impossible for Zhao Tuo to ignore this close relationship and choose someone else.

At this time, the story of the war to destroy Chu had been finished, and the room became quiet.

Ying Yinman suddenly stood up and said to Fusu, "Brother, I remembered that my mother and concubine still have matters, so I left first."

Seeing his expression, Fusu understood in his heart and said with a smile: "In that case, you can say goodbye to Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Tuo was stunned. We were having a good conversation, but why did he suddenly leave the show? Could it be that he was really invited to tell a story today?

You are obviously very relaxed when writing letters, but why is it different when you actually meet?

The doubt lasted only for a moment, when Ying Yinman turned sideways and faced Zhao Tuo.

Seeing her blushing face and watery eyes, Zhao Tuo understood something.

"Zhao Jun, go slow."

Ying Yinman blushed, bowed, turned around and walked out of the house in small steps.

Soon, Zhao Tuo also stood up and said goodbye to Fusu: "Young Master is busy with business, so Zhao Tuo won't disturb you."

The two looked at each other, understanding each other.

Fusu smiled and returned the greeting: "In that case, please go slowly, Mr. Zhao, and Fusu will see you off not far away."

Zhao Tuo saluted the three young masters again, and then strode out.

"Ah? Why is it that when my sister left, Jun Zhao also left?"

"Brother, isn't it rude if you don't go out to see Jun Zhao off?"

"I want to go out too."

The voices of three young gentlemen came from behind, but then Fusu was heard scolding: "You three, just sit down and let me talk to you some truth to increase your knowledge."

Zhao Tuo smiled slightly.

After walking out of the house, Zhao Tuo turned his head and saw a slim and graceful girl standing in the quiet corridor in the distance. The aqua blue skirt paired with the luxurious white fox fur made the girl look even more pretty.

Zhao Tuo smiled slightly and strode over.

"Princess is here, who is waiting for you?"

"Waiting for a slick-talking scoundrel."

Ying Yinman snorted.

Her eyes were curved into crescent shapes, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing her cute dimples. The tall figure and plump chest made the girl look even more graceful at this moment.

Zhao Tuo was startled and laughed.

"Is the princess talking about the disciple whose wife gave birth to five sons?"
