Ying Zheng's voice was filled with emotion and excitement, as if he was stating Chen Ke's contribution.
But Di Lun immediately understood the meaning of Ying Zheng's words, and immediately echoed: "Long before coming to Da Qin, the little king heard that there was a wise man in Da Qin."
"I heard that this wise man is almighty and can do anything. He not only improved the life of the head of Guizhou in the Qin Dynasty, but also made the Qin Dynasty prosperous."
He looked at Chen Ke as if he were seeing Chen Ke for the first time.
"I just don't know if that worthy person has arrived today?"
Ying Zheng, Li Si, and Wang Jian looked at Chen Ke who was standing aside at the same time. Ying Zheng even laughed and said, "How can it be such an important matter to meet the King of Shang without Chen Ke accompanying him?"
He pointed at Chen Ke and was quite proud: "The King of Shang must not have known that Xu Fu was able to go to the Yin Shang Continent and find you all because of Chen Ke."
"Back then, Xu Fu was just an alchemist in the countryside. Chen Ke saw Xu Fu's potential abilities with a pair of discerning eyes, so he asked Xu Fu to explore Baiyue, then to the Wonu Kingdom, and finally to the Yin Shang Continent. .”
"certainly."
Speaking of this, Ying Zheng looked at Xu Fu with a little admiration in his eyes: "Xu Fu also has a share of credit for this."
"If it weren't for Xu Fu, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see King Shang, and King Shang wouldn't be able to return to his homeland."
After saying some polite words, the two people's eyes were full of excitement, just like a pair of close friends who met each other late.
Chen Ke stood aside. No matter how many times he watched it or how many times he did it, he felt that he could not adapt to the life of this kind of drama queen.
In the courtyard, everyone was already sitting there.
Nowadays, although the chair invented by Chen Ke has become popular throughout Xianyang City, people are still used to "kneeling down" to express their seriousness on some important occasions.
For example, meetings above the court, such as meetings with important people.
The posture is still the most important sitting posture at this time. The straight and serious waist symbolizes two people taking out all the Akagi.
Ying Zheng was sitting in the room. In fact, he was still a little uncomfortable with it.
After all, there are not many occasions where he can sit upright and stay there for a long time. Even in court meetings, he sits upright while others sit down.
He looked at Di Lun opposite and said softly: "I think Xu Fu has told you what Great Qin meant before."
"I just don't know what King Shang thinks?"
Di Lun was also sitting upright at this time. Although he rarely sat in this posture when he was in his own country in the Yin Shang Continent, after coming to Da Qin, the first thing he learned was etiquette.
The etiquette cannot be discarded.
"Reporting to Emperor Qin, Xu Shiling has already told Xiao Wang about Da Qin's request. After careful consideration, Xiao Wang decided to agree to Da Qin's conditions."
His expression was serious and silent.
At this time, he was not a so-called Yin merchant who had been wandering for a long time, but a Shang king.
And Ying Zheng was not the one who met "a family that had been wandering for a long time", but Emperor Qin.
Di Lun spoke softly, but with a hint of helplessness and exhaustion in his tone: "Actually, the little king should express his gratitude to Emperor Qin on behalf of the Shang Kingdom for his great kindness."
His voice was soft, like a small boat floating on the sea.
"Before Great Qin came, the Shang Kingdom was already unable to hold on."
"Although the Shang Kingdom took away a lot of technology from the Central Plains when they left, the process of migrating to the Yin Shang Continent was too difficult."
"On the road, many ancestors and seniors died, and a lot of technology and data records were also lost."
"After we came to the Yin Shang Continent, although we have not dared to forget our inheritance and bloodline for thousands of years, our skills and abilities have been almost lost."
He said with emotion: "Even when Xu Shiling came, we were almost in danger of destruction."
"Fortunately, Xu Shiling did not dislike us at this time and extended a helping hand. This prevented the Shang Kingdom from being destroyed."
"Therefore, in fact, Xiao Wang's initial idea was to completely surrender to Da Qin, and even wanted to join Da Qin."
Di Lun's voice was filled with sincerity and determination, which was indeed what they had originally thought.
Why?
Because Da Qin was so powerful, they could clearly feel that Xu Fu was not a high-ranking person, and the people he brought out could not be considered elites who had experienced hundreds of battles in Da Qin.
Even the number of people he brought with him should not be large according to "Xu Fu's own understanding."
But even so, they can still catch up with half of the Shang Kingdom.
If they could join such a powerful country, would they still be afraid of those barbarians?
Yes.
Even though they have lived on the same continent for more than a thousand years, the people of the Shang Kingdom still call some of the tribes living near them "barbarians."
This point is similar to that of the Central Plains countries such as Qin and Zhou.
He looked at Ying Zheng, his eyes full of longing: "It's just that Emperor Qin can be so tolerant and allow our country to continue to exist without even needing our vassals or our submission."
"It's just asking for something that has no effect on us and is even harmful."
"How can Xiao Wang not agree, how can he not be grateful?"
Ying Zheng sighed, looked at Di Lun and said, "I can understand your mood, but Qin is not a barbaric country like Zhou. "
"Since you and I are from the same source, and both have the blood of the Central Plains flowing through them, I cannot watch you perish."
He smiled, but said very straightforward words: "What's more, Da Qin is so far away from Yin Shang, even if Yin Shang is a vassal to Da Qin, it will have no effect."
Ying Zheng smiled and looked at Di Lun, with a hint of sincerity in his voice, as if he wanted to have a heart-to-heart relationship with Di Lun.
"What's more, that thing that has no effect on you is a resource, just like currency."
"You didn't get our support and Da Qin's help in vain, but you exchanged materials and resources for Da Qin's help."
Ying Zheng's voice was very calm: "Everyone gets what they need. This is what we should do."
"Da Qin will do this now and will do the same in the future."
He looked at Di Lun, with a hint of warning in his voice: "Da Qin will never help others for no reason and be constantly asked for by others."
"Great Qin will also never launch some unjust war."
"This will always be Da Qin's perseverance."
Ying Zheng's words were sonorous and powerful, making people feel convinced after hearing them.
Chen Ke also said at this time: "Your Majesty is right."
There was something meaningful in his tone: "Everything in the world has to be given."
"Although the teachings of Confucius were widely spread in the Central Plains in the past, and your majesty, we and other officials all felt that Confucianism might have merit, this does not mean that Da Qin will become a country where some people can take whatever they want."
Chen Ke's voice was cold: "It's not the case now, and it won't be the case in the future."
"So anyone who tries to get something from Da Qin for nothing without giving anything will definitely be judged by the Qin Law Office."
"Whether this person is a moth inside Da Qin, a friend from outside Da Qin, or an enemy from outside Da Qin."
When Wang Jian spoke at this time, there was murderous intent in his voice. He had crawled out from the dead on the battlefield, and when he spoke at this time, he had a real smell of blood on his body.
"Da Qin's sword and Da Qin's spear will always protect the people of Da Qin and protect Da Qin."
"If there are any foreign enemies, kill them all."
"If there is internal trouble..."
Li Si then continued: "If there is internal trouble, then Qin Law will be used to judge. No one can escape the judgment of Qin Law."
In order to confirm the authenticity of this matter, Li Si even said: "At that time, King Huiwen's teacher made a mistake, and King Shang used the Qin law to punish King Huiwen's teacher."
Wang Jian said again: "Of course, according to Qin's strength, it is not impossible to make everyone in the world abide by Qin's laws."
The three of them said something to each other, their attitudes were very firm and unquestionably domineering.
To be honest, before Chen Ke and others showed Da Qin's tyranny, he was actually very worried, even afraid, and fearful in his heart.
He even wanted to give away all the benefits obtained by Shang State, so that he could feel at ease.
Otherwise, a very powerful country, so powerful that it can even cross many oceans and come to another continent, sit on a million troops, wipe out six extremely powerful countries, and even wipe out the barbarians in the north and the countries in the Western Region that are so shocked that they cannot move. , suddenly shows kindness to you.
Not only to help you expand your territory, but also to help you control the country so that no one bullies you.
What they need is only some resources on your country's territory, and some resources that do not belong to your country's territory. They can even help you conquer the world...
I'm just asking you, are you panicking?
Even if they show that they need those resources and that those resources are precious, you will still be confused.
Because you know that apart from those resources, you have no role.
Even for those resources, they can destroy you, develop them themselves, and then transport them back after development...
You can't help but wonder, why did this country choose a long detour?
Could he have any plans against you?
You will start to get scared.
But now, that good man who was very friendly to you suddenly showed some ferocious claws. These claws did not hurt you, but you suddenly felt at ease.
There will be a feeling of, oh, so this is their plan.
Just like the current King of Shang, combined with what Xu Fu told him some time ago, he finally understood what the current Great Qin wanted to do.
】
Dang even smiled, said sincerely and wholeheartedly: "Xiao Wang also believes that all injustices in the world can be dealt with using Qin Law."
He even said with emotion: "Now the Western Region has surrendered to Da Qin, and the Xiongnu has vassalized Da Qin, becoming the "King of Zhanxi" of Da Qin. All the land that can be seen is covered with the footprints of Da Qin. "
"Naturally, Qin's laws can judge every piece of land under the sun."
Ying Zheng immediately put his hands on his hands and laughed: "Hahahahahahaha, I just said that King Shang must be a smart man and will never let me down."
He smiled, kindly, even amiably and said: "The Yin Shang Continent is too far away from the Qin Dynasty. People in the Central Plains are settling down and relocating, and are easily unwilling to move away from this land and go to other places."
"I was still worried about what to do with such a large piece of land."
"But now that King Shang is found there, Great Qin doesn't have to worry."
"They are all of Central Plains blood, and they are all civilized and polite people. They must be able to educate the barbarians in that land well and make them feel the etiquette of our Chinese Central Plains civilization."
"Really, King Shang?"
Di Lun immediately stopped his posture and said with a firm look on his face: "Please don't worry, Emperor Qin."
His expression was also full of emotion and determination: "Shang was also born in etiquette China, how could he let those barbarians be so rampant?"
"We will definitely spread the civilization of the Central Plains of China to those barbarian tribes."
After saying that, everyone looked at each other and smiled.
After Ying Zheng left, Di Lun's body instantly went limp, and sweat was pouring down his back.
"call--"
He exhaled heavily, and the fear in his heart slowly dissipated.
The meaning of what Ying Zheng said just now was too obvious. It reassured Di Lun but also worried him, fearing that he might have said something wrong if he didn't pay attention...
If you say the wrong thing at this time, I'm afraid it will be a disaster for the country...
He touched his forehead. After the extreme fear and fear, he felt extremely excited and happy, because he had completed his purpose and exceeded it.
From then on, the Shang Kingdom no longer feared other countries, or tribes, on that land.
With the Qin Dynasty here, the Shang Kingdom will always have peace of mind.
.............
Outside the courtyard
Just after leaving the courtyard, Ying Zheng pointed at Li Si, Chen Ke, and Wang Jian with a smile: "You three guys, I thought I would be the best, but I didn't expect that you would be the best."
Li Si chuckled: "We all learned this from Chen Fengchang. If Chen Fengchang hadn't taught us a lot before coming here, how could we have performed so well?"
Wang Jian also felt a little emotional. He was a war-minded man and would not play with these conspiracies. At most, he could only use some war tactics.
Now that I have seen the methods of these conspiracy people, I really can't help but sigh.
"Young man Chen Ke is worthy of being someone who can play tricks on the Six Kingdoms, Zhang Liang, and even the Huns to death. Those who play conspiracy have really dirty hearts."
Chen Ke curled his lips: "Isn't this also for the good of King Shang?"
"Didn't you see how King Shang suddenly relaxed after we finished the play?"
"It means that he is just waiting for us to ask for something, waiting for us to push our limits, and waiting for us to be overbearing."
Chen Ke clasped his hands behind his back like a little old man: "Sometimes, if you are not overbearing, they will be afraid."
