Chapter 385: A true hero will also get drunk in the land of beauties
The Qin emperor came to Wu State not in a diplomatic manner.
At the very least, in the official propaganda of the Qin State, it was only said that Ying Yuan was passing through the Wu State.
But no matter what, he has already arrived in Wu State.
In the imperial palace hall in Jingzhao Prefecture.
A grand banquet has begun.
Ying Yuan naturally sat in the first seat.
As for the Emperor of Wu, he was only fit to sit on the side seat.
Wu Meiniang sat a little below Ying Yuan.
And Yingdang simply stayed close to Yingyuan.
The father and son talked about everything and told many interesting stories.
It seems that he treats everyone as air.
After three rounds of drinks.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Wu Shiqi stood up and toasted Ying Yuan.
Everyone only heard him say: "Emperor Qin, this cup of wine is a toast to you and the Qin State!"
"In the battle to destroy Jin, your country defeated Yan and became the new overlord among the nations. This is truly a blessing for all mankind!"
Hearing this.
Ying Yuan's good mood immediately disappeared, and he said in a cold voice: "The Emperor of Wu State is too serious. If it weren't for the help of your Wu State."
"It is impossible for our Qin State to defeat the Yan State so easily in Mingtaifu."
This is not gratitude at all, it is clearly a complaint.
To this day, he is still angry about the battle in Mingtai Mansion.
I often feel sleepless at night because of this.
At the beginning, he couldn't understand why An Lushan could win?
Until the end, he knew that the Wu State had sent the white-robed ghost general Chen Qingzhi and Xue Rengui, who conquered Tianshan with three arrows.
In addition, there is also Zhuge Liang, an external think tank.
With this lineup, it would be strange if we don’t win.
He originally wanted to take the opportunity to punish An Lushan. After all, he had secretly allowed a minister of the Ministry of Revenue to accompany the army and serve as a military advisor.
It's really against the rules.
It makes sense to punish him for this reason.
But after thinking about it carefully, he decided that he could not punish him but should reward him.
After all, the incident has already happened. If there is only punishment but no reward, how will the money in the national treasury be wasted?
As long as the treasury is not empty, the Qin Dynasty will prosper!
So, Ying Yuan rewarded An Lushan and Zhuge Liang with 10,000 taels of gold each and a luxurious mansion in the capital.
When this reward was announced, many people were surprised.
Among them were An Lushan and Zhuge Liang.
There are also ministers who have expressed their own understanding of this matter:
"An Lushan and Zhuge Liang won the battle, but Your Majesty did not reward them with official positions or titles, but only with money. This is not in line with the previous reward system."
"Ultimately, there is only one explanation: Your Majesty wanted to use this method to warn An Lushan and his ministers."
"From now on, no one can arbitrarily embezzle the power of a minister without the Emperor's approval."
"After all, rules are rules. If anyone breaks these rules without authorization, His Majesty will not even reward them with money in the future."
"Since there is no reward, there is only punishment."
After this series of his imagination.
Ying Yuan's attempt to ruin the national treasury's financial resources became a manifestation of the emperor's mentality.
An Lushan and Zhuge Liang were even more grateful to him.
I wish I could set up a longevity tablet for him and worship it day and night.
at this time.
Everyone felt a little embarrassed after hearing Ying Yuan's voice.
Because they all heard a hint of sarcasm in the words.
In the Battle of Mingtaifu, even if Qin did not rely on the help of Wu, it would not lose to Yan.
At worst, it will be a lose-lose outcome.
Wu Shiqi said with a forced smile, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. My Wu State has always relied on Qin State to gain a foothold here."
"Over the years, if we hadn't been able to rely on Qin, I'm afraid our Wu State would have been swallowed up by other nations long ago."
Facing Ying Yuan, he really couldn't muster up the aura of an emperor.
I can only keep complimenting him.
He was really afraid of Ying Yuan.
I started to be afraid of it many years ago.
Ying Yuan frowned slightly and said, "Since you know that my Qin State has done you Wu State a favor, then why did you do that during the Cold War a few years ago?"
"Your Wu Kingdom's stance is wavering?"
Judging from the result he wanted, which was a state of incompetence and ruin, the indecision of the State of Wu was actually a good thing.
But from the perspective of the world, Wu Guo's behavior was to betray his friends.
Ying Yuan hoped that they would be hostile to the Qin State, but he was not ashamed of the Wu State's behavior.
Wu Shiqi looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Wu Meiniang appeared to rescue him and said, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, and Dang'er is sleepy..."
She is very smart and speaks in Yingdang.
This banquet was destined to end in a bad mood from the moment Wu Shiqi took the initiative to propose a toast.
Wu Meiniang also wanted to avoid making the atmosphere more awkward and causing any bad things to happen.
That's why I wanted to use Yingdang's name to persuade Ying Yuan to go and rest early.
The latter no longer wanted to stay here.
He carried Yingdang on his back and, under the guidance of Wu Meiniang, came to the most luxurious hall in the entire palace.
Everything in this temple was newly installed and no one had ever used it.
Ying Yuan placed Ying Dang on a small bed in the hall and said with a smile:
"Dad and your mother have something to say. Be good, go to sleep first."
"Tomorrow, Dad will play with you."
Yingdang nodded without saying anything and without closing his eyes to rest.
