Qin Palace, Conference Hall.
"Fusu greets father."
After Fu Su entered the hall, he bowed to Ying Zheng and said respectfully,"
Looking down at Fu Su, who had lost a lot of weight, Ying Zheng sighed with emotion.
This time, Fu Su had gone to the Great Tang for four months, and more than half of it had been a long and bumpy journey.
Amongst his many children, only Fu Su could endure such hardship. The others were all greedy for pleasure and could not be cultivated.
Compared to them, Fu Su was simply too outstanding.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng looked at Fu Su with a gentler gaze and said with a faint smile,""Stand up. You are now a hero of Great Qin, so there's no need to be so polite.”
Fu Su's diplomatic mission to the Great Tang had not only succeeded in forging an alliance between the two countries, but it had also opened up trade barriers between the two countries.
From now on, Great Qin no longer had to worry about equipment, and it could trade or buy military supplies from the Great Tang.
What an amazing thing!
Therefore, even Ying Zheng, who rarely praised others, rarely praised him.
Facing Ying Zheng's praise, Fu Su remained humble.
"The success of the alliance is the result of the joint efforts of everyone in the diplomatic mission. How could Fu Su dare to take credit for it alone?”
"Furthermore, the Prime Minister was in charge of all the negotiations. I was unable to help at all.”
Fu Su shook his head and said.
In the end, Zhang Yi was in charge of negotiating the trade with the Tang Empire. He didn't know anything about the price of the warhorses and the trade of weapons and equipment.
But this was the most important part.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi shook his head and said,""Young Master, you're being too serious. I'm afraid."
"If it weren't for your magnanimity, Young Master, which won the favor of the Tang Empire's civil and military officials, the negotiation would have been very difficult.”
"It's us who have benefited from Young Master's glory.”
Seeing that the two of them were giving way to each other, Ying Zheng could not help but smile and say,"There's no need to continue pushing. All of you have contributed.”
"Alright, tell me what you've gained from your trip to Tang.”
At the mention of this matter, everyone became spirited.
This time, the diplomatic mission had brought a total of 7,000 fine horses to the Tang Empire. The Tang Empire's response to the alliance also represented their sincerity to the alliance.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this time, we obtained 50,000 saddles and stirrels, and 30,000 sabers, spears, and armor.”
"When we passed by Wu An City where Lord Wu An was, young master left behind saddles and stirrers, as well as 10,000 each for weapons and equipment.”
Zhang Yi answered truthfully.
After hearing Zhang Yi's number, many of the officials in the hall were delighted.
"There are actually so many?"
"With so much equipment, we can definitely build an elite army!”
"If we trade with the Great Tang, we can exchange even more equipment in the future. This will double the strength of our Great Qin army!”
"If that's the case, why should we fear the Xiongnu?"
........
The ministers in the hall were all very happy.
Even Wei Yang, Su Qin, and the others nodded in satisfaction.
Seven thousand warhorses in exchange for so much equipment was not a loss to the Qin country at all. It could even be said to be a profit!
After all, Great Qin did not lack warhorses!
"Not bad, very good!"
Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction. This number was more than he had expected. He could continue to follow up and carry out more transactions.
After all, this bit of equipment was far from enough to satisfy Great Qin's army.
At this moment, Fu Su shook his head and said,""This number is not accurate. Minister Zhang, you have calculated wrongly. Did you forget that there are still 3,000 sets of armor?”
Everyone was stunned.
There were still 3,000 sets of armor that hadn't been counted? The Tang court was too generous.
"But that's…"
Zhang Yi's expression stiffened slightly. He looked at Fu Su and hesitated to speak.
Fusu gave him a gentle smile, then raised his head and cupped his hands at Ying Zheng, saying in a clear voice,""Father, Minister Zhang made a mistake.”
"In addition to those pieces of equipment, the Tang Emperor also gave me three thousand sets of Mingguang Armor and the Great Mo Saber.”
The moment he said this, everyone in the hall was shocked!
Mingguang Armor?
The Great Mo Saber?
And it was a total of 3,000!
After hearing these two words and numbers, everyone felt their breathing stagnate. They even suspected that they were hallucinating!
The Mingguang Armor and the Damo Saber were the most elite weapons of the Great Tang, so how could they give away three thousand of them at once?!
Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly burst with a bright light. He stared at Fu Su and asked,""Is what you said true?"
Even though he knew that Fu Su would not lie, he still found it hard to believe!
Fu Su stood tall and slender in the hall. His moon-white robe made him look even more handsome.
Facing all the questioning gazes, he replied calmly,"There's no falsehood at all."
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard that!
"How is this possible? How could the Tang Empire give him 3,000 sets of top-tier equipment?”
"These three thousand pieces of equipment are not even worth ten thousand A grade warhorses!”
"Young Master Fusu said it himself, how can it be false?”
"What is the Tang Empire plotting?”
"This is unbelievable. It's like a dream!”
........
All the ministers were shocked.
No one expected the Tang Empire to be so generous as to give them 3,000 sets of Mingguang Armor.
This was a strategic grade equipment!
After recovering from his shock, Su Qin was the first to react. He asked Fu Su with a serious expression,""May I ask, Young Master, why did the Tang Emperor gift so many pieces of equipment?”
His question was also the question in everyone's hearts.
Nothing was so easy to take. Li Shiming was so generous that it made people suspicious.
"This is a gift from the Tang Emperor as a dowry for Princess Changle.”
Fu Su looked at Zhang Yi and smiled faintly.
"Zhang Xiang missed out on these equipment just now. You can't be so careless next time.”
Zhang Yi laughed bitterly, his eyes filled with helplessness.
Everyone else looked at them strangely.
How could Zhang Yi miss out on something like the Radiant Armor and the Great Mo Saber?
It was only because the Tang Emperor had given it to Fu Su in private that he had helped to conceal it!
However, the most inconceivable thing was that Fu Su actually took the initiative to tell them about this matter. This was simply an operation that no one could understand.
If Zhang Yi didn't say anything, who would know?
If that was the case, then Fu Su could completely take all the equipment for himself. Even if someone asked later, they could only say that this was Princess Chang Le's dowry. What could others say?
However, if he were to openly pick them in the imperial court, these pieces of equipment would never belong to Fu Su again.
