Fusu felt very uncomfortable being stared at by the two of them, so he lowered his head slightly to cover his face while picking up the food.
At this time, the King of Zhao ignored Fusu and was immersed in Ying Zheng's smile.
Ying Zheng actually laughed just now?!
And it’s not just a smirk, it’s a smile!
For him, smiling is basically the same as an ordinary person laughing heartily.
This is really rare.
Is this the deep love he has for his son Fusu?
Going off track...
Zhao Jun's mind was full of wild thoughts, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Ying Zheng sat upright and glanced at the two of them.
"Ahem, I have good news to announce today."
At this moment, there was still a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
The two people who had lowered their heads and run away quickly came to their senses.
"Good news?"
No wonder he seems to be in a good mood today. Did something good happen?
They both looked at him expectantly.
Ying Zheng felt quite pleased with himself.
He sat upright and stroked his sleeves.
"Ahem, I received a letter from General Wang Jian this morning. The Chu general Xiang Yan has been killed, and the remaining soldiers have almost no power to resist."
"Conquering the State of Chu is just around the corner."
Ying Zheng said this with great confidence.
You must know that the State of Chu was originally a major threat to his unification of the world. Now that the State of Chu was defeated, Yan and Qi, who were barely surviving, had no power to resist.
Now he can say it out loud.
There is no one in the world who is invincible!
Not only Ying Zheng, but Fusu also felt very excited after hearing it.
More than two years have passed since General Wang Jian set out on his expedition, but no good news has come.
He had seen his father worried about this several times.
It is really exciting that the good news has finally come at the beginning of the new year.
The Lady of Zhao was also excited, but she had already prepared herself mentally, knowing that the demise of the State of Chu was inevitable.
So hearing this news just gave me a sense of finality.
Compared with the defeat of the State of Chu, the name Xiang Yan is more eye-catching.
After all, his grandson was later known as Xiang Yu, the King of Western Chu.
However, the current Qin State should not repeat the path of history.
Even Liu Bang was in her hands at this moment, and she had no time to care about the remaining Xiang Yu.
"Father, this is really great news."
Fusu was so excited that he immediately began to congratulate.
Zhao Jun's calmness aroused Ying Zheng's dissatisfaction, and he raised his eyebrows in response.
Zhao Jun remained calm, but his face was full of smiles.
"The defeat of Chu is inevitable. Don't get too excited, or you'll be so excited when our king conquers the six kingdoms and unifies the world."
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Jun said this, Ying Zheng’s dissatisfaction disappeared instantly.
That’s right, it’s not worth getting so excited about just destroying a small State of Chu.
"Fusu, be more steady."
Ying Zheng lowered his lips again and nodded at Fusu who was excited beside him.
He secretly suppressed his joy.
Yes, it won’t be too late to get excited when he unifies the world.
"Yes, yes, it's me who is overly excited."
Fusu curled his lips. It was obviously his father who was the most excited just now.
Zhao Jun watched the confrontation between father and son silently and laughed helplessly.
"By the way, you actually contributed to this."
Ying Zheng seemed to remember something and glanced at Zhao Jun.
And my business?
Ying Zheng quickly explained the reason.
"General Wang Jian's letter said that thanks to the cotton-padded clothes provided by the Shumian Workshop, the winter temperatures in Chu are even colder than in Xianyang. If it weren't for your cotton-padded clothes, the army might not have adapted to the weather so quickly."
Wang Jian specifically mentioned this point in his letter, which shows that it indeed played a very important role.
"That's not what I should do. It's all thanks to the workers at the Shumian Workshop."
In an instant, she felt that it was worth getting excited, after all, she had the help of so many women from the Youshu Cotton Workshop.
After lunch, Ying Zheng was busy replying to the news from Wang Jian, Fusu left the palace to prepare for the wedding, and Zhao Jun slowly walked back to the palace.
When she collapsed on the warm kang again, she couldn't help but start to think about what happened afterwards.
It is now 223 BC. The State of Chu has basically perished, and Prince Dan of Yan has died and is no longer a force to be reckoned with.
As for the last remaining Qi, it was a pig waiting to be slaughtered and had no power. In history, it seemed that Qi surrendered very quickly.
Although there are still two years before true unification, these two years are actually just to complete some finishing work.
So now can she put her previous plan on the agenda?
Zhao Jun thought about it over and over all night.
Alas, she really worries about Daqin.
The next few days were still the New Year holidays, and the whole city of Xianyang was particularly lively.
Many workers who have been busy all year have also made a good offer.
The King of Zhao did not bother Xiao He and Liu Bang. After all, they had been traveling together for a year and he didn't want to see their faces again during this period.
Also, Ying Zheng mentioned the Shumian Workshop before, and she then remembered Qingliu in the north.
Because Zhao Jun had been staying in Bashu before, communication between the north and these two places was not very convenient.
Besides, she was not in the prefecture and often stayed in the mountains, so it was even more inconvenient for her to receive and reply to letters.
Qingliu did send a letter to Xianyang, and asked General Meng Tian to bring it back directly.
When she remembered Qingliu, she asked someone to bring the letter, which should have been sent by Qingliu years ago.
Basically, I was talking about some family matters and the situation at the Shumian Workshop.
