As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions became solemn.
They all knew that if Zhao Shu invited them to a banquet this time, the visitor must be unkind.
Zhao Shu is here for them!
.......
"Master, please make it clear, I will consider it carefully later!"
At this moment, King Wolou opened his mouth to break the silence in the study. He knew in his heart that this topic could not be interrupted.
Instead of letting Gongzi Shu speak stiffly, it would be better for him to give Zhao Shu a step up.
"As for you, I have come up with two arrangements to ensure your interests!"
Zhao Shu took a sip of wine and said with fiery eyes: "First, according to the agreement between you and me, you will be kings forever, and your heirs will each act according to their own abilities!"
"The second thing is that you personally write to the king, take the title of king, and become the ministers of King Qin!"
"When the time comes, I will report to the king and grant you the title of king!"
"After becoming a king, your heirs can directly enter the top academies in the Qin Dynasty without taking any exams."
"Your legitimate sons can inherit the title!"
"Of course, like the ministers of Great Qin, your legitimate sons can also inherit the title, but the second generation must iteratively inherit."
"Until the fifth generation, they are ordinary Qin people."
"In Da Qin, there is a saying that a gentleman's zeal will last for five generations!"
"Of course, in this process, if your heirs, whether they are in the army or in literature, have made achievements and made military exploits for the Qin Dynasty, they will naturally be promoted to noble titles again."
"The title can only be inherited by legitimate sons, and concubines are not eligible to inherit!"
"You can think about it, think it over carefully, and give me an answer!"
Zhao Shu looked at the crowd and said seriously, "I'm just giving you a choice, you can choose any one!"
"Everyone just needs to remember one thing. I, Da Qin, will never do anything that goes against our word!"
At this point, Zhao Shu changed the topic and said: "Actually, you all know that according to the original agreement, it is best for the Qin court!"
"There is no need for me to do this!"
"It's just that this time in the south, you and your tribes have been of great help to me. Therefore, after thinking about it over and over again, I decided to fight for you!"
"Thank you sir!"
At this moment, all the kings spoke one after another and said: "In three days, we will definitely give you an answer!"
"Um!"
........
Left Zhao Shu's house.
On the way.
King Juding looked at the King of Minyue. Since both of them had left their hometowns, their relationship sublimated within a short time.
We have become much closer.
They knew that in Da Qin and Xianyang, the few of them could only join a group to keep warm.
"King of Minyue, what do you think of Gongzi Shu's remarks?"
After hearing this, the King of Minyue pondered for a moment and said: "If we analyze it from a long-term perspective, Gongzi Shu is indeed thinking about us and fighting for our interests!"
"The beauty of a gentleman will be killed in five lifetimes!"
"Even if all of our descendants are trash, they will still be passed down for five generations!"
"Fifth life, at least a hundred years, is enough for me to establish a foothold in Xianyang and take root in the Qin Dynasty!"
"And Gongzi Shu is not wrong, and so are the officials of Great Qin!"
"In addition to the first generation inheriting it unchanged, the second generation will inherit it iteratively!"
"The so-called king's title has no use at all in Great Qin. How is it different from becoming a king!"
"Anyway, if we should have it, we will have it as a king, and we will have it as a lord. If we shouldn't have it, even if it is a title, we won't have it!"
"Besides, the one in Zhangtai Palace is the king, and we are also kings..."
"After all, it's not good!"
At this moment, King Kunming also nodded: "The King of Minyue is right. For us, the king's title is just a souvenir of our motherland!"
"However, our motherland is gone, and we should not continue to commemorate it!"
"Being obsessed with the motherland will be a disaster for us!"
.......
"Sir, are you too kind to these barbarians?"
Chen Ping was a little confused and couldn't help but said to Zhao Shu: "For the court, it is more beneficial to follow the previous agreement!"
"Ha ha......"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu couldn't help but laugh. This is the mentality of the Central Plains people in this era.
Except for the Central Plains, all are barbarians.
They inherently believe that these barbarians are inferior!
"Chen Ping, everything has pros and cons!"
Zhao Shu motioned for Chen Ping to take a seat, and said in a relaxed tone: "The Qin court will not grant the title of king!"
"The existence of these people will give some people a breakthrough!"
"However, if these people are willing to give up their title of king, some problems will be much easier at that time!"
"The Central Plains has been conquered for hundreds of years, it's enough!"
"Your Majesty is a king of eternity. He has a far-sighted vision and will never make the same mistakes again!"
"The situation in the Zhou family is right in front of us. As the saying goes, lessons learned from past mistakes are the guide for future events!"
"Da Qin, this is the king, how can we not learn a lesson!"
"Besides, in Great Qin, apart from General Wang Jian, which general's military exploits can rival mine?"
"The general is already old, and I am younger than the eldest son!"
Having said this, Zhao Shu looked at Chen Ping and said meaningfully: "As a human being, you must leave a way out for yourself!"
"I am like this, and so are you!"
"These kings are related to the stability of Nanzhou and Minzhong County, and even the stability of Baiyue County. We have to consider it carefully!"
"Let them dethrone themselves as kings, and naturally they will be given sufficient benefits!"
"Essentially, this is an exchange in itself!"
"The beauty of a gentleman will be killed in five lifetimes!"
"But they are in Xianyang. Within two generations, they will be assimilated and become Qin people. After three generations, they will be proud of Qin people!"
"It's just a title of king, not a title of Chehou!"
"Just an honor!"
"Today's title has been perfected, and it is no longer the time of Lord Wu An!"
.......
"Young master is a great talent, I would like to learn from you!"
At this moment, Chen Ping had a look of surprise on his face, and then he cupped his hands towards Zhao Shu and thanked him.
"You are talented, smart, and born at the bottom of the class. You have seen the life of a real commoner!"
Zhao Shu took a sip of hangover soup and said, "Study hard and watch well, I will give you high hopes!"
"As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely have a place in the Great Qin court!"
Having said this, Zhao Shu pointed to the bamboo slips on the wall: "There are many books in the house. If you have time, you can read them!"
"Reading makes one wise!"
"Reading can change one's destiny!"
"The era of war has come to an end. In addition to small-scale wars, the next Great Qin will enter the era of civil rule!"
"Da Qin will promote the development of civilization, and reading will be the mainstream in the future!"
