Chapter 5 The Young Prime Minister (1)

"Political hooligan!" Zhou Chong commented on the actions of the King of Qin in his heart.

If a Korean princess cannot enter the palace, Han will inevitably be uneasy and will be afraid, and will pay tribute to Qin. The King of Qin can take the opportunity to blackmail. Once an excuse is found, the Qin army will overwhelm the enemy and destroy South Korea in one fell swoop. This is indeed not an open and gangster method, but the King of Qin calculated it very accurately, and he has to admire his meticulous mind and extraordinary reaction ability.

Wei Liao couldn't stop nodding. It seemed that he admired the Qin King's methods very much.

"For Han Fei!" The King of Qin replied without thinking, "Han Fei, the young master of South Korea, has the talent of Wang Zuo. If I want to get him earlier, the sooner Korea will be destroyed, the better."

Zhou Chong could see clearly, and Li Si raised his eyebrows, obviously he was very upset.

"King Wen is respectful to the wise and the nobles, and praises him for all ages. The king's actions are even better than that. The king loves talents so much, and the Qin Dynasty is very lucky! The world is very lucky! The king's great cause will be accomplished!" Wei Liao had to convince himself and praised the King of Qin in a few ways.

The King of Qin waved his hand and said, "Mr. Liaozi doesn't have to choose all the good words. I ask Mr. Liaozi to correct my mistakes. I think that if I accept a concubine, I have to send an envoy to give a betrothal gift. This gift must be the focus. I don't care about that little money. As long as I can satisfy the heart of the five countries, I will be willing to give it any more money."

This statement exposed the unique characteristics of the King of Qin. He did not love money, but only loved the country and power.

The King of Qin continued: "Besides Chu, there is also Qi, which is also a great country. I have been in good faith with our Qin for decades. I want to continue this friendship before I can free up my efforts to destroy Qi. Is Mr. Wang Ao willing to go on a mission to Qi for me?"

Qi State is the farthest away from Qin State, and is a "friendly" country chosen by Fan Sui's strategy of "family and close attacks". The diplomatic relations with Qin State are very important and must be paid attention to.

Wang Ao happily accepted the order and said, "If the king does not abandon him, Wang Ao is willing to go!"

"Okay!" The King of Qin was very relieved and said, "Qi State is very important to our Qin Dynasty, so I will work harder. Wei State was once the strongest country, but although it is not as good as before, it should not be underestimated. It is necessary to send a minister to you. Li Si, how about you go?"

The State of Wei was once prosperous because of the reform of the powerful leader Wei Wenhou. Later, he suffered consecutive defeats and his country's power declined day by day, but his strength was still not weak. Before the King of Qin vacated his hands to destroy Wei, it was better to stabilize the State of Wei. This was a heavy burden and also a trust in Li Si. Li Si stood up and said with confidence: "Please rest assured, I will definitely not humiliate the king's order."

The King of Qin nodded and praised, "Chu State is the biggest. Only by relying on Chu can you win the world. Chu State must send a capable and capable person to go. Zhou Chong, how are you going?"

Even in his dream, Zhou Chong never expected that the King of Qin would actually lick him. He was shocked and almost jumped up. He said in surprise: "Your Majesty, this..."

The King of Qin asked, "What's wrong? Are you unwilling to go? Chu State hated Qin because of what King Huai of Chu bullied Zhang Yi. You are the envoy of my great Qin and represent me. I don't know that they don't have the courage to do anything to you. If Chu State dares to make things difficult for you, I will never let them go."

Zhou Chong hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, I don't mean this. What I mean is that I have not served such a major state affairs, and I am afraid I will not do it well."

"I haven't done it, I have to learn it. I haven't been a king, I'm not that good." The King of Qin encouraged and said, "The most important part of Chu is, I think it's Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Chong accidentally saw Li Si's eyes full of jealousy. It was obvious that he was very unhappy about the King of Qin defeating such an important mission to Zhou Chong. Zhou Chong thought to himself that you can do it, why can't I do it? He straightened his chest and said, "Your Majesty, Zhou Chong is willing to go."

The State of Chu was so important that it was actually sent to Zhou Chong, which shows that the King of Qin was increasingly trusting Zhou Chong. Zhou Chong's position in the King of Qin was different day by day, and he had already surpassed Li Si. How could Li Si not be jealous?

"That's right!" The King of Qin was very satisfied with Zhou Chong's performance and reminded him: "You must all remember that I sent you there not only to welcome the princess, but also to find out the situation of various countries. Which ministers can be bought and who cannot be bought. When I come back, I must submit a list to me."

He wanted Zhou Chong and others to be spies. In fact, this is not difficult to understand. "Sun Tzu" says, "Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles." If you don't understand the situation in various countries, your chances of victory will be reduced.

Just as Zhou Chong was surprised and suspicious, the King of Qin pointed his name and said, "Zhou Chong, in addition to these, you have to bring back the iron recipes and good crafts of Chu to me. The iron tools of Chu have always been better than my Great Qin. If I could get the iron recipes of Chu, my Great Qin army would be stronger. You are a clever person, and it would be best to send you to do this."

"Although I have never refined steel, I still know a few things used in modern steel, such as coking coal. In addition, the Pixiang used for blowing during the Warring States Period was too rare, so it should be replaced by a bellows." The King of Qin reminded Zhou Chong, and he kept changing his mind and said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely not humiliate the king's order."

The King of Qin thought, "The State of Yan will not need to send anyone there. Danzi and I were friends from the past. I wrote a letter to him and asked him to send a princess over and say yes. We haven't met for many years, and I miss him very much."

Wang Ao, Li Si and Wei Liao sing together to praise the King of Qin's affection. Zhou Chong found a smirk that was hard to detect at the corner of the King of Qin's mouth, and thought that if Yan Dan came, it would definitely be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and there would be no return.

"There is only Zhao State left, and Zhao State will be destroyed. This is inevitable. However, before destroying Han, it is better to keep it steady, and a serious official should be sent." The King of Qin walked to the window, looked at Zhao Gao, who was covering his mouth and laughing outside, and said, "Zhao Gao, what are you laughing at?"

Zhao Gao was shocked and his smile disappeared all at once. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I'm just laughing secretly by myself."

"You don't even look at the place when you lie. Do you want me to chop your head before you can say it?" King Qin shouted with a calm face.

Zhao Gao suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "The king is not a slave who doesn't want to say it. It's really because this matter is too small. The slave dares not use such a small matter to alarm the king."

"Tell me!" King Qin said a simple word.

Zhao Gao dared not to say anything, and said, "The king, there is a boy outside the palace who shouted to see the king, saying that he wanted to send an envoy to the king and the six kingdoms."

It was really unbelievable that a boy actually asked to go to the Six Kingdoms. It could be said that he was fantastic and anyone found it incredible. Li Si pursed his lips and was amused.

The Qin King's view was very different from others, and he said happily: "That's right, even a boy knows that I, the Qin Dynasty, will win the world. What's the name?"

Zhao Gao thought for a while before saying, "It seems that his surname is Gan, and his name is Ganluo."
