Wang Clan? Which Wang Clan? Of course, they were the clansmen of Great Qin's number one Great General, Wang Jian.
"Strange, strange. What ability does that Ying Tianyu have to be able to persuade the Wang Jian clan to help him?”Zhao Gao finished the wine in the wine cup in one gulp, but his face was full of doubt.
One had to know that the Wang Jian Clan had outstanding contributions and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that they were the number one general in the State of Qin. Even the Meng Wu Clan was slightly inferior when compared to them.
With Qin King Ying Zheng's heroic talent, he was naturally able to accommodate a person like Wang Jian. However, it was impossible for Ying Zheng to not fear him at all. After all, there was the example of Baiqi, the Lord of Wu 'an. Wang Jian was strict in managing his family and had never openly interfered with the government. He also maintained a neutral position among the young masters.
Although the Huai Pacifying Magistrate of Xianyang had the surname Wang, Wang Jian usually strictly controlled him, making him enforce the law fairly to prevent others from accusing him. This time, he actually interfered openly. If it wasn't for Wang Jian's approval, he, Zhao Gao, wouldn't believe it. This had already gone against Wang Jian's principles.
"What about the transportation process?”Zhao Gao's meaning was very clear. If he couldn't do it in Xianyang City, he would do it while they were escorting the goods.
"No, this subordinate has already sent two groups of people to rob and kill their merchant group, but they have not succeeded.”
"Why?"
"Their caravans often follow the army. When they go to remote places, they will be escorted. We've checked, these escorts are all Meng family and Li family's private soldiers.”
"Are these boors crazy? He was openly siding with Ying Tianyu?”After Zhao Gao said that, he was delighted. He understood that if the net could find out, Ying Zheng could also find out. Since that was the case, Ying Zheng's reaction was worth discussing. As a king, he was very afraid of communicating with the outside world. He didn't know why these old men in charge of weapons had gone crazy, but this matter might be useful to him.
Zhao Gao was a person who was good at scheming. He understood that if he wanted to destroy an intact artifact, he had to start from the cracks bit by bit. Even if it was between flesh and blood, it was the same. Moreover, it was not rare for father and son to kill each other in the imperial family.
"Zhongche Prefecture Order, His Majesty wants you to go to the palace.”
His subordinate reported. Zhao Gao was also shocked. Was there an urgent matter? The Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate was in charge of the seals and letters. All documents had to be stamped by his subordinates before they could be issued. His position was low but he had great power.
When Zhao Gao arrived at the palace, there were already people waiting for him. He was considered late.
Li Si, Feng Quji, and other civil ministers, Wang Jian, Meng Wu and other generals, Fu Su, Changping Jun and other imperial clan ministers are all standing around.
In the middle of the hall, there was a black horse with a slender head and a tall neck, as well as two people leading the horse.
Zhao Gao walked to his seat and bowed to apologize. Ying Zheng waved his hand, indicating that he was fine. Soon, he placed his attention on the black horse in front of him.
"So this horse was tamed by Ying Tianyu near Five Carriage City?”Ying Zheng asked a young man with red lips and white teeth beside the black horse.
The young man was Zhao Yun. He was ordered by Ying Tianyu to present the horse that Fatty Jin had brought back from Dawan to the King of Qin. Ying Tianyu had obtained this horse three months ago. However, Fatty Weiyin wanted to hide it from the public during the transportation process, so he made the horse look thin and long. Naturally, he could not give it to the King of Qin. Fortunately, there was no lack of horse raising experts among the eight hundred Hu. After three months, the Ferghana Horse had recovered its original vigor.
"Young Master obtained this horse near Five Carriage City. It can travel thousands of miles a day and eight hundred miles a night. Moreover, when the horse runs, it sweats like blood, which is very strange. The prince was surprised and ordered the villain to present it to the king.”Zhao Yun was eloquent.
The hall was silent.
"A thousand miles in the day, eight hundred in the night." Zhao Gao bowed to the side and muttered these words softly, trying to figure out the meaning behind them.
"What do you think of this matter?”? Ying Zheng wanted his subordinates to discuss this matter. What they were discussing was naturally Ying Tianyu's reward.
"This subject believes that Young Master's gift of a precious horse is truly worthy of praise and should be heavily rewarded.”The first to walk out was the usually low-key Wang Jian. After that, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, Li Xin, and the other generals walked out one by one to express their agreement.
Li Si, Feng Quji, and the other civil officials stood to the side and did not express their opinions. Young Master Fu Su had just left the queue when he was pulled back by Lord Chang Ping beside him.
"I heard that Ying Tianyu ordered a total of eight horses to be brought into the capital this time. The remaining seven were given to you.”Brother Zheng said softly, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.
The so-called 'you' were obviously referring to the famous generals of Qin who were kneeling on the ground to ask for credit for Ying Tianyu.
Zhao Gao finally understood why the Wang Family, Meng Family, Li Family, and more than half of the military families in the State of Qin were helping Ying Tianyu. Because of the seven horses. Zhao Gao felt disdain in his heart. For the sake of seven horses, this group of uncouth people would do such a taboo thing to Ying Zheng?
Zhao Gao was not a soldier, so he naturally did not understand the value of a good horse to a general. Generals like Wang Jian and Meng Wu didn't lack gold, silver, wealth, beauties, and fame. If he wanted to bribe them, he had to target their preferences. In the era of cold weapons, what was the most important thing for a martial artist? Warhorses. Loving horses was a common characteristic of the current Qin country's generals.
Ying Tianyu's other Wusun horses can travel five or six hundred miles a day. Although it couldn't be compared to the Ferghana Horse in the palace, it was still a rare horse that was hard to come by.
"Seventh Young Master is fair, so King should reward him.”Seeing that the generals below were all silent, Zhao Yun said at this moment. In reality, no matter what the generals said, it would all be wrong. Only Zhao Yun, who was a bystander, could help them out. This was also the reason why Ying Tianyu sent him here.
"Oh?" Ying Zheng was interested that a small horsekeeper dared to help these generals out of their predicament in this hall.
"This lowly one followed Seventh Young Master to build Five Carriage City. Young Master had gotten those eight good horses by chance and wanted to sell them all to relieve his financial shortage. However, Young Master thought that if Great Qin wanted to destroy the six countries and invade the Central Plains, how could they do it without good horses? Therefore, he offered these eight horses to the king and the generals in the palace. The young master once said that all the generals in the palace are the pillars of the Great Qin Dynasty, and the king is an unprecedented king. A wise king and a famous general with a BMW is like a hero with a beauty. It is a pleasure in the world.”
Silence, a pin-drop silence. After Zhao Yun finished speaking, the ministers of His Highness were waiting for the King of Qin's opinion. To be honest, this flattery…They didn't know if it was good or not.
"Good!" " What a happy thing to do!" Ying Zheng's expression was joyful as he smiled and said,"”
