Daqin: My weak and virtuous minister

Li Xin led the way, and the carriage swayed all the way to Nanyang.

General Meng Ao had indeed arranged accommodation long ago, and Zhang Yuanqing and Fusu moved in directly.

After the bumpy journey, Zhang Yuanqing had a good rest for a few days. Chang Qiong also prescribed some nourishing medicine for Zhang Yuanqing, to be taken every morning and evening.

The next day, Fusu went to see Shangqing Yao Jia in high spirits.

Ever since Fusu heard about how Shangqing Yao Jia made the King of Han and the two prime ministers of the Zhang family so angry that they vomited blood, he was deeply impressed and inexplicably felt that he had to learn this skill himself.

Yao Jia did not keep any of the eldest son's questions to himself, but answered them patiently and also shared a lot of his own thoughts.

"If you are interested, you can ask him more questions after you meet Lord Dunruo."

"Shangqing Dunruo is a man of quick wit, eloquent speech, and eloquent speech. I admire him."

Yao Jia looked at Master Fusu and spoke with a smile, and Fusu felt so much that he wished he could ask for advice from the Prime Minister right away.

"However, I think Mr. Zhang is also a prodigy. His manipulation of public opinion is so masterful that I admire him."

"gentlemen?"

Fusu didn't quite understand, and Yao Jia was happy to see Prince Fusu like this.

"Of course. Take the case of Han, for example. Before I was sent there, Lord Zhang used the art of public opinion among the six kingdoms. Think about it: paper, food, and those four sagely-speaking words—which one wasn't designed to attract the talents of the six kingdoms and, at the same time, change the people's opinion of Qin?"

"And the Nanyang incident, that's what really turned the tide."

"You think, Nanyang..."

Zhang Yuanqing rested for a few days, and when Chang Xin said he could stop taking the medicine, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and started working.

The first thing is to ask General Ning Teng to escort King Han An’s descendants back to Xianyang.

Han Fei is still a teenager now. He has not been liked by King Han An since childhood. When he saw Zhang Yuanqing, he did not show strong hatred. Zhang Yuanqing nodded. If this guy grows up in the future, he may be able to be used by the king.

Zhang Yuanqing did not make things difficult for the Korean nobles in Xinzheng and truly ignored them.

Next, Zhang Yuanqing did not take any other action. He just asked Li Yu, who was well versed in law, to take people to publicize Qin law so that the people would understand Qin law.

Time flies by.

The people sent by Ying Zheng also arrived in Xinzheng, bringing with them the items needed by Xinzheng.

As soon as the supplies arrived, Zhang Yuanqing asked Ying Huo to be responsible for the exchange of Qin currency, and Zhou Shen, Wei Xu and others to be responsible for the sale of fine salt.

Lu Sheng also arrived, and Zhang Yuanqing had put him in charge of the spring plowing in Han. Now that the weather was starting to warm up, everything needed to be prepared.

Because of the precedent in Nanyang, most of the people in Han were very cooperative at this time. They took the initiative to take out the remaining money from their homes to exchange for Qin coins. At the same time, they would also spend three Qin half-liang to buy some fine salt, which could be used by a family to eat for more than a month if they were frugal.

Another month passed like this, and Lu Sheng led his men to start arranging the planting.

Nanyang guy also started to get busy with his people.

When it comes to increasing grain production, the people are most concerned. The people in Han had long heard that the Qin immortals had made the land produce more grain. When they heard that the Qin people were willing to teach them, they all knelt in the direction of Xianyang to thank the King of Qin for his great kindness.

"Where does this stench come from?" Han Xi had been worried for a long time since the fall of the Kingdom of Han. Later, seeing that the Qin people hadn't troubled the Han nobles, he gradually felt relieved and scoffed at the Qin people. During this time, Han Xi continued to live a life of wealth and luxury. Today, a servant came to report that the Qin people had sent people to teach the people how to increase grain production. Han Xi planned to come and see. If it worked, he would naturally apply this method to his own fertile fields.

"Master, that's the people fertilizing the land with human or animal feces, as well as other grass, hence the unpleasant smell." As he spoke, the servant carefully looked at Han Xi's face.

Sure enough, Han Xi's face was full of anger at this time.

"The Qin people are so crude and despicable that they actually use excrement to irrigate the fields. Isn't that making everyone in the world eat excrement?"

Thinking of this, Han Xi couldn't help but feel his stomach churning and he lay on the side of the road retching.

"How can this be! How dare the Qin people humiliate us Han people in this way!"

"This is insulting us Koreans!"

"Go and call the leader over. I want to question them."

"promise."

Not long after, Lu Sheng came over and said, "I'm Lu Sheng from the Farmhouse. May I know who this is?"

"Han Xi."

As Lu Sheng approached, a foul odor hit Han Xi's forehead, and Han Xi couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Let me ask you, why do you humiliate me, the Korean people, by making us eat that excrement?"

???

Lu Sheng had a face full of question marks. When did he let the Korean eat that? Ugh, he couldn’t think about it, he couldn’t think about it, stop, stop.

"I don't quite understand what you mean."

Lu Sheng asked in a good-tempered manner, "Why did I let the Koreans eat that excrement?"

"Also, let me remind you that now that Han has been destroyed, you should call yourself a Qin person."

Han Xi was furious: "You, you idiot!"

"You pollute the fields with your excrement, and then use it to grow food. Isn't that just asking us to eat excrement?"

"Come here, teach this thief a lesson."

The servant dared not disobey and attacked Lu Sheng with his weapon.

As a farmer's son, Lu Sheng grew up in the mountains. He not only has good martial arts skills, but also has amazing strength.

Seeing that the other side had more people and more power, Lu Sheng kicked Han Xi, kicking him more than ten feet away, then turned and ran.

Han Xi had never suffered such pain before. He lay on the ground wailing. The servant did not bother to chase Lu Sheng and hurried over to help Han Xi up.

"Quick, catch up with that guy and beat him to death."

"Go quickly."

The servants did not dare to delay and followed Lu Sheng one by one.

The soldiers led by Lu Sheng saw Lu Sheng running over in a hurry and quickly stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

"Hurry, those people want to kill me. They intend to interfere with the spring plowing."

When the soldier heard this, he drew his sword and rushed forward.

In an instant, the two groups started fighting.

However, even though Han Xi's servants knew some martial arts, they were no match for the Qin people. In just a moment, they were killed by the sword.

At the same time, Han Xi was also brought over.

"It was this man who had me called over and then accused me of humiliating the Han people by forcing them to eat excrement. He also claimed he wasn't from Qin. I argued with him, and he actually wanted to kill me."

Upon hearing this, the Qin army was filled with murderous intent and looked at Han Xi as if he were a dead man.

However, Qin law now stipulates that they cannot kill this person privately, so they take this person back to Xinzheng City and let Zhang Yuanqing make a decision.

At this time, Zhang Yuanqing was listening to Fusu talking about how the King of Han's Palace was not as magnificent as the Xianyang Palace. A'er came in to report that a thief was obstructing the spring plowing, intending to kill Lu Sheng, and also had anti-Qin intentions.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanqing had tables and chairs set up outside, and asked A'er to notify the officials and people of Xinzheng to come.

"What are you going to do, sir?"

Fusu was puzzled.

Zhang Yuanqing rubbed Fusu's cute head and said, "Of course, this person will be tried publicly."

After waiting for so long, it finally happened.
