Zhao Sheng had suffered a great loss this time, and his face was not very good. If he had not cultivated shrewdness for many years, he would have pulled out his sword and slashed at people.
"Then I'll wait for Lord Pingyuan's gold. Lord Pingyuan wouldn't lie to an eight-year-old like me, right?”Ying Zheng reminded Zhao Sheng again, which made the latter feel a sharp pain in his heart. Eighty thousand taels of gold was gone just like that.
"Please rest assured, Young Master Zheng! I'm willing to admit defeat. I definitely won't go back on my word.”Zhao Sheng bowed. Eight years old? Other than being a little young, this fellow was much more terrifying than many adults.
Even if a few adults joined forces, they might not be a match for Ying Zheng.
Zhao Sheng immediately arranged for people to send the gold to the hostage's residence in the State of Qin. Many people's eyes were burning as they saw this. This was 80,000 taels of gold. As long as they gave half of it, even if it was only one-tenth, it was enough for many people to live a peaceful life.
However, they did not dare to act recklessly. Even if they had those crooked thoughts, they did not dare to make a move.
The people present were all nobles with extraordinary strength. If they really discovered that the gold had been stolen, they would die without a burial place with just a flick of their fingers. Although Yan Dan and Ying Zheng were hostages, they both had noble titles, and were not something they could compare with.
Not to mention, they would still have the opportunity to return to China in the future. It was also common for them to turn into divine dragons in the rain.
After a feast,
Everyone recovered from the incident and started discussing other things.
Zhao Sheng raised his wine cup and said to Lianpo,""In this war between the Zhao Country and the Yan Country, Lord Xin 'an should be the first to win.”
"I don't dare, I don't dare. This old man only spoke a little. The real credit should be the soldiers of Zhao. If not for them, how could I have defeated the Yan Country's army so easily?”Lianpo nodded slightly.
Crown Prince Dan and Gao Jianli's expressions did not look too good. These few people had mentioned this matter in front of them. It was obvious that they wanted to humiliate them in front of them.
"Lord Xin 'an is too humble. Without you, it would be like a good horse without a rider, and a good carriage without a driver. Lord Xin 'an should be the first to receive the credit." Zhao Sheng praised Lianpo.
"Indeed, Lord Xin 'an is famous in Han Country. After the Battle of Changping, he was able to lead the defeated Zhao army and defeat the Yan army. How could such bravery not be admired by others?”Han Jie had always been good at changing the situation.
"The Yan Country's army is scattered and disorderly. I was prepared for a tough battle back then, but I didn't expect that the Yan Country's army would be defeated so quickly.”Lianpo laughed out loud.
"The Yan Army is just a paper tiger. It's not worth mentioning at all. When they encountered a famous general like the old general, they could only bow their heads and obey.”Zhao Sheng sneered and continued to praise the Zhao Country and belittle the Yan Country.
"Even if a real tiger comes, it can only be submissive.”Han Jie said.
"You flatter me, you flatter me." Lianpo laughed loudly, his voice filled with pride,""However, even if I have to do it a few hundred times, I can still defeat the Yan Country. The Yan Country's army was still a little inferior!”
Yan Dan and Gao Jianli's faces turned pale when they were mocked like this.
"Another toast to Xin Anjun!" Zhao Sheng raised his wine cup again and said with a smile,""This time, Lord Xin 'an defeated the Yan army and gave Zhao a chance to breathe. He also let the other countries know that even if Zhao is a remnant army, we cannot be easily bullied.”
"It's just serving the country.”Lianpo said.
"Not only that, the Yan Country has paid countless tributes this time and given us countless money and food, greatly increasing the strength of our Zhao Country. Not only that, guess what's the most interesting thing?”Zhao Sheng laughed and looked at Yan Dan, whose face was ashen. His eyes were filled with the pleasure of revenge.
"What's wrong?" Han Jie was interested.
Han, Zhao, and Wei were one family. Their relationship was not good, but to other countries, it was good.
"The King of Yan ceded five cities to us, and the envoy of the Yan Country cried bitterly. He looked like a coward and begged our Zhao army not to attack Ji City.”Zhao Sheng smiled.
"This King of Yan is really cowardly." Han Jie said.
"Yeah, he even gave me a lot of gifts. Did you see that pair of beautiful girls? It was given to me by the King of Yan." Zhao Sheng used his right hand to point at a pair of pretty maids not far away.
"What happened after that?" Han Jie said.
"I, Zhao Sheng, am dedicated to the country. How can I be swayed by the beauty of the Yan Country?”Zhao Sheng snorted coldly, and his image instantly became lofty.
Yan Dan clenched his fists and shivered in the hot weather of June. He cursed in a low voice,""You're going too far.”
"Crown Prince, calm down. You must calm down. Otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain.”Gao Jianli advised softly.
"I know." Yan Dan stared at the people at the banquet.
"Kid, let me give you a piece of advice. Don't act rashly without strength.”Li Cunxiao looked at Yan Dan casually. Ying Zheng's gaze swept across Yan Dan's body.'He's treating Yan Dan as Ying Zheng. If he can't humiliate Ying Zheng, then why can't he humiliate you, Yan Dan?'
Ying Zheng had guessed Zhao Sheng's thoughts, and a contemptuous smile could not help but appear on the corner of his lips, but he did not say anything. Zhao Sheng and Lianpo did not bully the Yan Kingdom just to humiliate them. Sooner or later, they would turn around and aim at the Qin Kingdom.
"Thank you so much!"
Yan Dan thanked him and lowered his head without saying a word. If only my performance was as good as Ying Zheng's, but unfortunately..."
Yan Dan gritted his teeth and ate. He knew very well that it was impossible. Compared to Ying Zheng, it was like comparing a firefly to the bright moon. They were not on the same level at all. Besides, the Yan Kingdom and the Qin Kingdom were not on the same level at all.
If Ying Zheng becomes the King of Qin!"
At the thought of this, Yan Dan's eyes emitted a trace of killing intent that he himself did not notice.
"General Lianpo is so brave, it's a blessing for Zhao. Wen has Pingyuan Jun, Wu has Xin 'an Jun, Zhao has no worries.”Han Jie flattered him. Lord Pingyuan had countless followers, and if he befriended him, he would be useful in the future.
"It should be like this!" Zhao Sheng was thick-skinned and did not feel embarrassed at all. He continued,"If General Lianpo was in the Battle of Changping, who knows who would win?”
Ying Zheng laughed coldly.'I didn't find trouble with these guys, but they came knocking on my door again.'
"Although the Qin army has the reputation of tigers and wolves, our Zhao army is not weak either. Ever since Zhao Wuling wore Hu clothes, rode horses, and shot arrows, the country's strength has grown day by day. The so-called tiger and wolf army is just a joke to our Zhao country.”Seeing that Ying Zheng did not move, Zhao Sheng added fuel to the fire.
"As long as I take over the Battle of Changping, even if I can't defeat the Qin army, I won't let them gain any advantage.”Although Lianpo was happy, his heart was clear as a mirror and he said something that he thought was more appropriate.
"Forgive me for being blunt, but be it Lianpo or Zhao Kuo, they will definitely lose the Battle of Changping.”Ying Zheng laughed loudly and stood up immediately. His eyes looked down at the world as if he was looking down on all living beings, just like the Son of Heaven, born noble.
Other than Lianpo, Xiao, and Wei Mou, who had strong willpower, the others all felt a desire to submit.
"Forgive me for being blunt, but you're dreaming!”
