Fang Tai was very cooperative.
After learning that Yingluo had been subdued by Zhao Hao, he decisively sent someone to ask Kun Tu to take charge of the crime.
When Kun Tu learned that Fang Tai and Ying Luo had secretly colluded to plot against Zhao Hao, everyone was shocked.
He never expected that Mrs. Fang would be so stupid.
Actually, because of a woman, all their plans for this mission to Da Qin were ruined.
However, the matter has been exposed, and it is useless for him to be angry. He can only reach the shogunate as quickly as possible.
Looking at Fang Tai, whose hands were tied but still alive, Kun Tu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, Fang Tai is the son of the King of Nanyue after all, and he cannot ignore it.
"Sir, my Nanyue mission to Daqin this time comes with sincerity!"
Kuntu said with a bitter look on his face: "The prince of our country fell into your hands today because of his lustful mind. Please forgive us, remote barbarians, uneducated and ill-mannered!"
What he said was a bit of a moral kidnapping, with the meaning of 'I am uneducated, and you will lose if you try to be more serious with me'.
However, he underestimated Zhao Hao's immunity to moral kidnapping.
But I heard Zhao Hao smile noncommittally and say: "When a child makes a mistake, an adult will bear it, but when an adult makes a mistake, who should bear it? Although Daqin is a country of etiquette, we also pay attention to rewards for merit and mistakes." You must be punished, do you know what the consequences are for assassinating a prince according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty?"
"this"
Kuntu looked hesitant, not knowing how to answer.
Zhao Hao suddenly stopped smiling and said in a cold voice: "Assassinate the prince and kill the nine Yi tribes!"
"ah?"
Kuntu was startled and quickly knelt down and begged for mercy: "Young Master, please forgive me, this matter has nothing to do with us!"
"Hey, the ground is cold, get up quickly."
Zhao Hao smiled, gave Kun Tu a weak hand, and then said in a serious tone: "As long as you cooperate well, I don't need to offend you."
"I called you here this time to negotiate some terms with you."
When Kun Tu heard the words, he nodded suddenly, stood up slowly and saluted: "Sir, please speak! As long as we can do it, we will do our best!"
"good."
Zhao Hao nodded slightly, and then said calmly: "First thing, although there is no direct conflict between South Vietnam and Great Qin, you sent a spy to assassinate my father, which is a heinous crime. In line with the tolerance and kindness of the heaven, my father I won’t hold you accountable, you just need to pay for it!”
"no problem!"
Kuntu readily agreed.
He feels that as long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem.
After all, they brought a lot of gifts this time.
However, things were not as simple as he imagined.
But I heard Zhao Hao continue:
"I know you have brought a lot of gifts this time, but this is not enough. I hope you will express your sincerity again. Don't send gold, silver, and jade articles. It is best to bring hundreds of thousands of stones of food!"
"Hundreds of thousands of stones."
Kun Tu looked stunned and stared at Zhao Hao, speechless for a long time.
Zhao Hao frowned: "Is there a problem?"
Kuntu said quickly: "No!"
"Well, that's fine if you don't!"
Zhao Hao nodded with a smile and continued: "The second thing, I just heard Mrs. Fang say that his brother Quan Ang is a very talented person. You know, I like to communicate with talented people the most. I don't know. Can you ask him to come over and have an in-depth discussion with me?"
Sure enough, not only did he want to keep the second prince Fangtai as a hostage, but he also wanted to keep the eldest prince Quan Ang as a hostage. Kuntu sighed slightly in his heart, then bowed and said: "I will report it to my king."
"There is no shortage of food in South Vietnam, and he will agree to this."
"As for the eldest prince Quan Ang, who is highly respected by my king, I'm afraid it will be difficult to handle."
Zhao Hao sneered and waved his hand: "Which is more important, the country or the son, I believe your king will know what to do. If these two things cannot be handled well, I will regard you, Nanyue, and our country, Da Qin, as officially declaring war."
Fang Tai, the second prince, was of no importance to the King of Nanyue.
And the great prince Quan Ang was of great significance to the King of Nanyue.
In addition to the relationship between father and son, the most important thing is that having an heir can make the country more stable.
However, it is absolutely impossible for the King of Nanyue to abandon the country because of his son.
He would rather find a few more concubines in the future and work harder.
Kun Tu did not dare to delay, so he immediately rushed back to the post house and asked people to move the gifts to the shogunate. At the same time, he took several guards and returned to South Vietnam without stopping.
As for Minyue, Zhao Hao also summoned Mu Kui to his study.
"Sir, I'm sorry about Princess Yingluo. I hope you can calm down."
Although Mu Kui passed a small warning note to Zhao Hao through Mu Lin's relationship, he still wasn't sure how Zhao Hao would deal with him, so he acted cautiously.
Zhao Hao smiled faintly and raised his hand towards him: "Doctor Mu, please sit down. I'm calling you here not to accuse you, but to share my feelings with you!"
"Exchange feelings?"
Mu Kui was stunned and didn't seem to react.
But Zhao Hao laughed again and said, "I have heard from Yi Xusong and Mu Lin about the things you did. I never thought that you and I have never met, but you helped me so much. I am so grateful!"
After saying that, he comforted softly: "Don't worry, Yingluo's matter will not involve you!"
"Young master is wise!"
Mu Kui was overjoyed and hurriedly expressed his loyalty to Zhao Hao: "Although I have never met the young master before, your famous name is like thunder. I admire you very much and I am willing to obey you!"
"hehe."
Zhao Hao chuckled lightly and joked: "You are Wu Zhu's minister. If you tell me this, aren't you afraid that Wu Zhu will accuse you?"
"this"
Mu Kui was speechless and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
But I heard Zhao Hao say again:
"The war between Da Qin and Min Yue will not cease. The war will continue. It is only because of your mission to Da Qin that the two sides can sit down calmly and have a good talk. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
Mu Kui asked subconsciously.
He never thought that Da Qin's willingness to negotiate with Min Yue actually had something to do with him.
Zhao Hao looked at Mu Kui with a half-smile but said, "Because you dare to come to me to discuss becoming the King of Minyue, you won my heart!"
"Um"
Mu Kui nodded in sudden realization, but suddenly felt something was wrong. He suddenly stood up from his seat, waved his hand and said:
"Don't dare. I'm just a minister of Minyue. How dare I be the king of Minyue? If the prince doesn't want Wu Zhu to continue to be the king of Minyue, I can help the prince find a way to get rid of Wu Zhu and establish Wu Zhu's son. Be the king!"
Although he refused very simply, a trace of greed flashed in his eyes.
No one understands human nature better than Zhao Hao.
In particular, how could a treacherous official like Mu Kui, who was good at calculating and calculating, stay depressed for a long time?
There was a hint of joking in his eyes, and then he pretended to be regretful and said: "Well, it turns out that Doctor Mu doesn't want to be the king of Fujian and Yue."
"But."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and continued: "I didn't know what Doctor Mu was thinking before, so I asked my father to send an imperial edict to canonize Doctor Mu as the new king of the Minyue Kingdom."
"ah?!"
Mu Kui's heart was so shaken that even his voice trembled as he spoke: "Can you take back the imperial edict?"
"No."
Zhao Hao shook his head without any doubt and said seriously: "You have no joke."
"this"
Mukui was speechless again, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.
But he still couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "If Wu Zhu is removed and a new king is established, I have some ideas;
Moreover, Wu Zhu's prestige in Min Yue was not as good as before. As long as he incited the fear of war among the Min Yue soldiers and civilians, it would be difficult for Wu Zhu to secure his throne. "
Hearing this, Zhao Hao stood up with a smile, poured a glass of hot wine for Mu Kui, and asked curiously: "Oh? Since Doctor Mu is confident that he can dethrone Wu Zhu from the throne, why not take his place on the throne?"
"Young Master is laughing at this. Although I have little talent and little knowledge, I also know that there is a saying in the Central Plains that a name cannot be justified and words cannot be spoken properly. I am just a minister, how can I be qualified to sit on the throne!"
Mu Kui said with a bitter look on his face: "Even if I force myself to sit on the throne, the soldiers and people of Fujian and Vietnam will not agree."
"hehe."
Zhao Hao smiled noncommittally and said unexpectedly: "Doctor Mu just mentioned my Central Plains culture, and I also remembered a Central Plains proverb: He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"
"He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world?"
Mu Kui was stunned.
But Zhao Hao continued: "After you went to Qin alone to mediate with Qin and prevent the war between Qin and Minyue, the people of Minyue should be with you, right?"
"this"
Mu Kui was stunned and looked at Zhao Hao with disbelief.
He never expected that Zhao Hao would actually help him like this.
However, the next moment he was shocked, Zhao Hao turned around and picked up the yellow silk on his table and said: "This is my father's imperial edict. As long as you can seize the throne of Minyue, you will be recognized by our Great Qin as the King of Minyue." , you will kill anyone who dares to resist you, I, Da Qin, will make the decision for you!"
"Son."
Mu Kui looked at the imperial edict in Zhao Hao's hand, and his breathing gradually became rapid. After a long silence, the veins on his forehead suddenly bulged, and he shook his head with pain on his face: "If you do this, many people will die!"
Zhao Hao smiled and said with a chill: "If you don't do this, more people will die."
"ah?"
Mu Kui's body immediately trembled and he stood there blankly.
After a long time, he regained his composure, nodded heavily, took the imperial edict from Zhao Hao's hand, and turned around to leave.
Seeing Mu Kui walk away, Zhao Hao walked up to the screen with a smile, and said calmly to the figure behind the screen: "Yingluo, did you hear everything?"
"Asshole! Asshole!"
Who would have thought that Mu Kui, whom he regarded as a loyal minister of the Minyue Kingdom, would have such a dirty soul.
Who would have thought that his ambition would be as vast as the South China Sea.
Who would have thought that his cruelty would be as vicious as a poisonous insect in the forest.
Brother Wang! Yingluo wrongly blamed you, you shouldn't have listened to his slander!
He is not doing it for the soldiers and people of the Minyue Kingdom at all, he is doing it for his own ambition! We were all deceived by him!
At this time, Yingluo's face was pale.
Although she was still tied by the rope, compared to the discomfort of being tied by the rope, the damage Mukui had caused to her could be said to be several times greater, so much so that she broke down in tears at the moment.
"I know you are sad, but this is the reality. The country you want to save is not necessarily the country that others want to save. Mu Kui is just one of them. In the face of interests, I dare to assure you that there are many people like Mu Kui. People like Kui!”
"You sacrifice yourself for your country and have a sincere heart. I appreciate it very much. If you are willing, I can send someone to kill Mu Kui right away!"
"However, you only have this chance to beg me!"
"If you still choose to go against me, I will not hesitate to kill you, including your family and all the people of Fujian and Yue!"
With that said, Zhao Hao glanced at the figure behind the screen with a complicated expression, and slowly walked towards the door.
Just when he was about to open the door and leave, Yingluo's voice suddenly came: "After the fall of Minyue, will you be kind to the soldiers and civilians of Minyue, as well as my family?"
"meeting!"
Zhao Hao paused and said in a sincere tone: "As long as there are no people in Minyue who resist my Da Qin, I can guarantee you that Da Qin will definitely treat them well, including your family!"
"Young Master said this, do you think you can deceive Yingluo? My brother Wang will not give in so easily!"
"Since you know that your brother Wang will not give in so easily, why do you say such nonsense?"
"So, by supporting Mu Kui, you want to dismantle our Minyue from within?"
"You, Minyue, are not the only ones I want to destroy. I have many imperial edicts like the one just now. Do you understand?"
Zhao Hao smiled faintly, then opened the door and walked out.
at the same time.
Mu Kui, who had just come out of Zhao Hao's study, immediately found his son Mu Lin and said ecstatically: "Hahaha, our bet was right. Young Master Hao actually wants to support me as the king of Minyue!"
"Our good days are coming!"
"Father! Can you calm down?!"
Facing Mu Kui's almost crazy joy, Mu Lin acted very coldly, even a little unhappy.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Kui suppressed his laughter and said with some confusion: "In the future, I will become the king of Minyue, and you will be the prince of Minyue. Aren't you happy?"
"What am I happy about?"
Mu Lin smiled coldly and said, "Do you think the young master will support you for no reason? He just wants to use you!"
"I know he wants to use me, but I am willing to be used by him! Because my hatred with the Minyue royal family is irreconcilable, I want to kill all the Minyue royal family!"
"Father, when has it been time to retaliate? Why do you need to do this?"
"snort!"
Mu Kui snorted coldly: "Now that you have a place here, you have forgotten our great enmity. When you and Yinhua were in love, who separated you? And who caused Yinhua to become like this? ?Have you forgotten all about it?"
"I"
Mu Lin was speechless and looked embarrassed.
But I heard Mu Kui say in a deep voice:
"No matter how you choose, I will help Princess Yinhua remove her poison. But what I want to tell you is that there are not only the poisons I planted in Princess Yinhua's body, but also an extremely rare poison. This kind of poison is Princess Poison Silver Flower has one, and Princess Sakuraluo seems to have one too!"
"ah?"
Mu Lin's face was full of surprise: "Aren't they Wu Zhu's most beloved sisters? Who planted the poison for them!"
"who?"
Mu Kui sneered and said disdainfully: "How do you think Wu Zhu got on the throne? He is more cruel and ruthless than we thought!"
"This beast!"
Mu Lin was furious.
