The middle-aged man called Brother Chun Yu sighed helplessly and said,"It won't be easy, it won't be easy, it won't be easy. If it wasn't for what General Li Xin did before, I would have been 70% confident. However, after what General Li Xin did a few days ago, the Ten Thousand Year City has probably become very wary of Great Qin and won't treat us nicely.”
"If all these bad things can't be turned into friendship, then wouldn't it be a fool's dream to want Wannian City to submit?”
These two people were the envoys sent by Brother Zheng to Wannian City this time.
They were the famous Han Fei and Chunyu Yue.
Chunyu Yue was originally from Qi and was now a doctor of Great Qin. He was famous for supporting the enfeoffment system and was highly valued by Prime Minister Wang Wan and Brother Zheng. Thus, this diplomatic mission was a form of training for Chunyu Yue.
Han Fei, the famous Han Feizi, was killed by his senior brother Li Si in history. At that time, Li Si was already the Prime Minister because Han Fei was too talented. In addition, Han Fei was well versed in Legalism and put forward many ideas and methods to strengthen the monarch's power. The power of the country should be concentrated in the monarch, which completely caught Brother Zheng's appetite and was very favored by Brother Zheng.
However, Li Si was afraid that he would not be able to keep his position as prime minister, so he framed Han Fei. In the end, Han Fei was wronged and died in prison.
But this time, Li Si was only the Chief Justice and the Prime Minister was Wang Wan. Li Si couldn't even win Han Fei over, yet he still dared to harm him! Besides, they were fellow disciples after all, and because Han Fei was a noble of the six dynasties, he didn't hold any position in the imperial court and posed no threat.
However, Han Fei was the study companion of his great-grandson. Now, his great-grandson attached great importance to him and often studied with him and discussed Legalism. If his great-grandson ascended the throne in the future, Legalism would definitely be very promising in Great Qin.
Because of this, Han Fei also hoped that he could do something for Great Qin sincerely so that he could serve in Great Qin's royal court in the future.
As for the Han Country, it had fallen, and the King of Han could not be helped. On the other hand, the Great Sun had great potential. He had the benevolence and righteousness of the former Crown Prince Fusu and the current Emperor's emphasis on the law. He was a wise ruler who could be assisted.
This time, he came as Brother Zheng's eyes and ears. He wanted to see who this Ten Thousand Year City was and how strong it was.
Chunyu Yue had wanted to convince Ten Thousand Year City to submit to Great Qin, but he felt that with his preparations, it would be enough. Moreover, the people of Ten Thousand Year City were originally from Great Qin, so it would not be too troublesome. However, they still put in the effort to do all of this.
However, they did not expect that they would hear bad news before they were halfway there.
It was said that Li Xin had brought a hundred thousand troops and had a conflict with the people of Ten Thousand Year City. Both sides were at daggers drawn and were about to fight.
Even though there were no casualties on either side.
However, this matter had undoubtedly increased the difficulty of their diplomatic mission. Therefore, Chunyu Yue did not have any expectations for this diplomatic mission.
That was why he said that.
Hearing this, Han Fei also sighed, but he still comforted her.""Brother Chun Yu, you don't have to think that way. Although General Li Xin did do such a bad thing, it doesn't mean that it's impossible for us.”
"You know General Li Xin's personality. He's a boorish general, and even though he's been defeated twice by Ten Thousand Year City, the foundation of Ten Thousand Year City is still there, and he's still very afraid of Great Qin.”
"Otherwise, why didn't anyone die in the conflict ten days ago? Moreover, from this, it can be seen that Ten Thousand Year City doesn't want to become enemies with Great Qin. Adding on General Li Xin's personality, no one would be able to stand his temper.”
"Now that we are here, we definitely can't talk to them like Li Xin. We are here to persuade them, so we definitely can't treat them with a condescending attitude.”
"In my opinion, we still need to move them with emotion and reason.”
Hearing Han Fei's words, Chunyu Yue also felt that it made sense. He said,""I almost forgot about that. Thank you for your reminder, Brother Han Fei.”
Han Fei laughed and said, There's no need to be polite between us.”
As they were talking, Chunyu Yue seemed to be attracted by something. He looked in the direction of Wannian City and couldn't help but exclaim," There must be ten thousand mu of fertile land here, right?”
Han Fei also looked at Chunyu Yue's eyes, and his eyes were full of shock.
"There are so many fertile fields here?"
In front of them were square fields. The boundaries of these fields could not be seen at a glance. In the past two days, countless people had been busy working in them.
There were also ox carts parked around the fertile fields.
The people in the fertile fields dug out baskets of things from the fertile fields and loaded them into the ox cart.
When the oxcart was full, someone would pull these things away and head in the direction of Wannian City.
Han Fei and Chunyu Yue looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
"The population of this Ten Thousand Year City is really large.”Han Fei said in shock.
This was because the fertile fields in front of them were filled with people, and there were definitely tens of thousands of them.
Chunyu Yue was also shocked. However, he wasn't shocked by the number of people here. Instead, he was shocked by the endless fertile fields outside the city and the things grown in the fertile fields.
"What did they plant in this field? They even planted so much. Just the ones we saw must be 10,000 mu.”
"And look at what they grow from the fields. Can they be eaten? Why did you plant so many?"
Han Fei shook his head and said, I don't know what it is, but it should be edible.”
Han Fei wasn't sure about this, but he guessed that it should be edible. Otherwise, these people wouldn't have dug so hard.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves could be heard.
Before Han Fei and Chunyu Yue could react, they saw a thousand cavalrymen galloping over.
After a while, Han Fei, Chunyu Yue, and the entire delegation were surrounded.
"Who are you people? What is your purpose for coming to our Ten Thousand Year City?”After saying that, the sharp blades pointed at everyone in the envoy group.
Han Fei and Chunyu Yue were stunned when they were suddenly surrounded.
However, both of them reacted quickly and calmed down.
After all, they represented Great Qin.
Of course, they could not lose Great Qin's prestige and face.
