Daqin: My weak and virtuous minister

Zhangtai Palace

"Ha ha ha ha"

Ying Zheng sat on the throne and laughed happily. The ministers below looked at each other, and finally turned their eyes to Li Si.

What did this fellow give to the king that made him so happy?

Li Si puffed out his chest proudly and said, "Your Majesty, the Marquis asked yesterday to grant you his calligraphy. I will find the best craftsman to carve these four words on a stone tablet. It will be placed at the gate of Daqin Academy to encourage students all over the world."

"Colorful Color"

How could Ying Zheng not know Zhang Yuanqing's intention? First, he asked him to be the dean of Daqin Academy, and then he asked him to write these four sentences and stand at the entrance of the academy: "Zhang Qing, treat me with sincerity."

"Having Mr. Zhang is like a blessing from heaven."

!!!

All the ministers were numb with shock!

Your Majesty, your words are too harsh!

"Shi Yi, please prepare the pen and ink."

"promise."

The handwriting is vigorous, powerful and majestic.

After the ink dried, Shi Yi respectfully handed the paper to Li Si.

"I know you are curious, so please take a look."

As the ministers left Zhangtai Palace trembling and in a daze, today's morning court ended and Ying Zheng's rewards arrived at Zhang's house.

"What's going on here?"

Mao Jiao looked at Li Ke and Fu Shengwen who walked in like zombies.

They are all doctors, but Mao Jiao did not attend the morning court today because he caught a cold and took sick leave.

It would have been better if Mao Jiao hadn't asked, but when he did, Li Ke and Fu Sheng both felt distressed.

This scared Mao Jiao silly.

The servants in the mansion were so frightened that they knelt outside the door.

"Fu Sheng, what's going on?"

Mao Jiao pulled Fu Sheng's sleeve, thinking that something big had happened, and asked anxiously.

"Wow~ We studied so hard for decades, but we're still not as good as a young boy."

……

Can you please speak properly!

But Mao Jiao was not in a hurry anymore. He thought that his knowledge was surpassed by that little kid.

"You, ah, why did you come to this, why did you come to this."

"When three people walk together, there must be one who can teach me something. There are always people who are better than you. It doesn't matter if I am outdone."

Mao Jiao looked at the two people with snot and tears in his eyes with amusement, and sat leisurely on the chair.

"Go, get a basin of water."

"promise."

Fu Sheng and Li Ke felt embarrassed to be laughed at by their friends and slowly stopped crying.

After the two washed their faces and tidied their clothes, the three of them sat down.

"Do you know what happened in the court today?"

……

How would I know? I didn’t go to court.

After asking, Fu Sheng realized that his question was in vain. "Today, Li Si..."

"Establish a mind for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living people, carry forward the unique teachings of the past saints, and create peace for all generations."

"Ha ha ha ha"

"Hahahaha"

Looking at Mao Jiao who was in a state of madness, Fu Sheng and Li Ke both understood his current state very well. After all, if they were not in Zhangtai Palace at that time, they would have behaved like this.

Whenever these four sentences are heard, do the court officials lose the energy to discuss state affairs?

"Okay, okay, okay"

"A saint has come to the world, a saint has come to the world."

Mao Jiao took a few steps forward, pressed down on Li Ke's shoulders and shook him a few times. Li Ke frowned in pain, but did not push Mao Jiao away.

"You are right. These words are indeed holy."

"How fortunate we are to be able to live in the same era and serve in the same court as such a saint!"

"Tell me quickly, who figured it out?"

"Zhang Yuanqing."

"Him? He, it's him, hahahaha."

"It can only be him, only him!"

Mao Jiao took a long time to vent his emotions, then hurried to the study, leaving behind a sentence: "I want to pass this on to Master!"

Li Ke and Fu Sheng looked at each other, then stood up and ran out.

"Village Chief, let's take a break. Not only the children, but even the adults can't walk any more."

We had been walking all night and it was almost noon, and everyone's feet were sore.

The village chief Gen couldn't stand the walk any longer. He looked at the tired villagers and nodded, "Rest for a while, eat something and then continue on."

"it is good."

When they heard that it was time to rest, both adults and children squatted on the ground and never wanted to get up again.

In the afternoon, the village chief's third son, Sanmu, woke everyone up.

A group of people were busy eating, and then they continued on their journey with their families.

In this way, they walked for four days, and it was not until the fifth day that the village chief let everyone have a good sleep.

Barracks

"General, I just received news that many villagers have fled."

"The king hasn't summoned me yet. I'm afraid he won't do anything about it."

The deputy general's face was dark and full of anger, and his already dark face looked even more ferocious.

Heimian got his name because of his dark face. Like Ning Teng, he has no family background. Although he is brave, he has no opportunities and is not valued.

A few years ago, he made military achievements, but they were robbed by someone. Heimian was so angry that he went to find the commander-in-chief at that time to argue, but was beaten. In the end, Ning Teng saved him, and he has been under Ning Teng's command ever since.

"Blackface, do you think we can resist the Qin army?"

Ning Teng was not as angry as Heimian, and asked Heimian to sit down.

"General, for some reason the Qin army hasn't launched a fierce attack yet. A few attempts have proven their bravery. Our soldiers are no match for them."

First of all, the Qin army had 50,000 fewer people than the enemy. The saying "a ferocious army" was not just talk, but was created through battle after battle by the Qin people.

However, this time the Qin army did not behead anyone they saw, which made him a little confused.

"No fierce attack?"

Ning Teng sneered, "Of course it's because they're not in a hurry."

They wanted to take Nanyang without bloodshed.

"How's the situation in the army?"

"General, due to the massive grain tax collection, there is already much resentment within the army, and everyone is worried about their families. Especially the soldiers in Nanyang, some have even deserted."

"Hehehe"

Ning Teng didn't get angry but laughed instead, which made Heimian confused.

"If anyone wants to escape in the future, you don't have to worry about it, just let them go."

"General?"

"It doesn't matter. What's the harm in keeping people here?"

The army's morale has been broken and the Korean army has no strength to fight.

"promise."

Qin military camp

"Master Yao Jia, should we contact Ning Teng?"

Meng Ao and other generals sat together with Yao Jia to discuss the war.

Hearing this, Yao Jia smiled and said, "There's no rush. I just received news that many people in Nanyang have already fled. Let's make preparations to receive them first."

"General Meng, has the food that the Marquis had the caravan deliver arrived?"

"Hahaha," Meng Ao and others laughed when they heard this. The marquis was very generous and actually sent so much food this time.

"Of course it has arrived. It was shipped back yesterday."

"I have sent people to patrol the key points and bring back any Korean citizens they find."

"Let's temporarily settle these people. The Marquis said that after Nanyang returns to Qin, those who want to return can still go back."

"This has been arranged. We've already informed the nearby villages and cleaned up a few houses. We're just waiting for people to arrive."
