Because the assassination attempt had been widely publicized in the official newspaper, and because of the great strength of the Qin Dynasty, all the assassins who came here died, but none of Zhao Qingrui's guards were lost.
This incident also served as a great warning to the remnants of the six kingdoms, preventing them from acting rashly.
Zhao Qingrui only brought a small number of people with him, and the assassins they sent out were all elite, but they did not hurt Zhao Qingrui at all.
Although they still didn't know the strength of the Qin Dynasty, they retreated again and didn't dare to show up easily.
Therefore, Zhao Qingrui's journey afterwards was much calmer.
"Your Majesty, have you gained a little weight recently?"
More than a month passed. After Zhao Qingrui had exhausted himself from dealing with local officials, he returned to the inn and drank a cup of milk tea brought by Shang Lian.
"I'm not fat. This is the future heir of the Qin Dynasty." She and Shang Lian were the only ones in the room, and she wasn't going to hide it from Shang Lian anymore.
Her belly had just bulged a little when Shang Lian noticed it.
"Heir?" Shang Lian was stunned. She was completely stunned by the news.
"That's right, don't tell anyone about this for now." Zhao Qingrui nodded.
Let’s talk about it after a few days, when we set out on our return journey.
If this gets out now, there will be no peace along the way.
"I understand and I won't say anything nonsense." Shang Lian said seriously.
The future heir of the Qin Dynasty must not make any mistakes.
Zhao Qingrui was relatively calm, but Ying Zheng's actions were even faster.
The army of the Maurya Dynasty was like paper in front of the Qin Dynasty. Even without using bird guns, those troops could be easily defeated.
As the war against the Qin Dynasty continued to suffer, Sharishuka was furious.
However, the Qin Dynasty's offensive continued unabated. Every time a place was conquered, someone would quickly take over the city.
Sharishuka was also frightened when he saw how fast the Qin army moved. At their current speed, it would not take much time to reach the capital of the Maurya Empire.
Once the capital was broken, he, as the king, had only one way to go, and that was death.
Ever since the Qin army set foot on the territory of the Maurya Empire, he had lost interest in beauties, fine wine and delicious food, and his mouth was so restless that several blisters appeared at the corners.
And those ministers even secretly contacted people in the Qin Dynasty, wanting to surrender, so that even if the dynasty changed, they could continue to be nobles.
These people's actions made Sharishuka angry and helpless. These people abandoned the country too quickly.
"King, what should we do next?" the Minister of Finance asked worriedly.
"You ask me, but who should I ask? Why is the Qin Dynasty so powerful? Isn't it said that our elephant soldiers are the best in the world?" Sarisuka was furious.
Sharishuka broke many things, especially a set of porcelain from the Qin Dynasty. He spent gold to have the patterns on the porcelain made according to his requirements.
At this time, he no longer cared about these things. If the Qin Dynasty attacked, he would be finished.
He still has so much treasure and so many concubines, he doesn't want to die.
"Your Majesty, how about we negotiate with the people of the Qin Empire and cede some land?" The Minister of Finance thought for a moment and said seriously.
He is a high-ranking official. Even if he surrenders, he will never be able to get such a high position in the future. He just wants to keep his current position.
The Minister of Finance's words made Sharishuka scold him. As long as the Qin Dynasty did not attack, he would still be the king of the Maurya Empire.
As long as he gives up some territory and does not lose his status, it is worth it.
"You are right. Who do you think we should send to negotiate?" Sharishuka looked at the Minister of Finance expectantly, like a drowning man grabbing the only piece of driftwood. He was indeed the talent he promoted.
-----------------
Ying Zheng had no idea about the two's plans in the palace. He was currently showing off to his daughter his achievements since he set foot on this land.
Zhao Qingrui was also very supportive, "Wow, you are indeed my father."
"My father's power overwhelms the world. Those who hear his name will probably be paralyzed with fear."
"Father is truly formidable. It's a shame I can't see him on the battlefield."
Ying Zheng was very pleased with Zhao Qingrui's admiring eyes and words of support. It turned out that daughters were the most caring.
"Hehe, it's not that serious. By the way, did you encounter any danger during your tour?" Ying Zheng asked with concern. He already knew about the assassination attempt on Zhao Qingrui's life before.
If he was not on the side of the Maurya Empire, he would have rushed over and killed all those bandits.
"What can happen to me? Your army is so powerful. Who would dare to confront my Great Qin head-on now?" Zhao Qingrui chuckled with great confidence on his face.
"It would be good if it could deter those with ulterior motives." Ying Zheng nodded.
"Wait, put your phone down a little." Suddenly, Zhao Qingrui's phone shook, and Ying Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
"What, what happened?" Zhao Qingrui's heart tightened. Well, it turned out that she couldn't hide it.
"You've gained weight." Ying Zheng pursed his lips and looked straight at Zhao Qingrui.
He has so many children, and he has seen many women when they are pregnant. His daughter looks very similar to them.
When Zhao Qingrui saw that she could no longer hide it, she simply told him directly.
After hearing this, Ying Zheng was silent for a long time, then said murderously, "Whose child is this? I will go there and kill that person."
