……
How could this puny Xiongnu envoy be able to withstand the aura of an ancient emperor?
Facing such an imposing Ying Zheng…
As the messenger of the Xiongnu, the eyes of Chief Te Zhagu flickered, and he did not dare to look at him.
However, the strange thing was that even so, Te Zhagu did not relent.
He agreed readily.
It was as if he was certain that no one in the State of Qin could tame this horse.
As if he was afraid that Ying Zheng would go back on his word, he hurriedly confirmed.
"Deal."
"My words are naturally worth thousands of gold.”
There is no need to fear when there is reliance.
Ying Xia's calm eyes flashed with a faint light.
It seemed that this matter was more complicated than he had thought.
After Ying Zheng ordered the Xiongnu envoys to rest in the posthouse.
The morning court session in Zhangtai Palace had yet to end.
The first to break the silence was actually his big brother, Fu Su, who had remained silent just like Ying Xia.
Fu Su frowned and slowly stepped forward to advise.
"Father, your son thinks that this matter is inappropriate.”
"The Xiongnu emissary must have come with some schemes. In that case, why would he agree to this agreement?”
"If we fail, wouldn't we be giving the Xiongnu a chance to talk?”
Ying Xia, who was following behind Fu Su, couldn't help but shake his head in his heart.
This big brother of his was not bad, but he was a little stupid.
Their EQ was too far apart.
No wonder Ying Zheng would dislike him in the future.
Do I need you to say that?
Anyone with a brain could tell.
However, even if he knew that the other party had something to rely on, he could not give in.
When it comes to diplomatic affairs, we retreat and they advance.
As such, he lost 30% in terms of momentum.
How could Ying Zheng, who had always been unyielding, agree?
How could the generals in the court be willing to swallow this?
Fu Su's simple answer immediately silenced Ying Zheng.
Perhaps from his perspective, Fu Su was too short-sighted and weak.
Ying Zheng was not someone who could not listen to harsh advice.
Moreover, he knew that the Xiongnu emissary's trip to train the horses was definitely a trap.
However, as the King of Qin, he could not back down on this matter.
Now, although the six states had not been wiped out, unifying the world was only a matter of time.
The next enemy would be the foreign barbarians.
If today we first fear danger, fear fraud and give in, what will we do in the future?
When the generals in the imperial court heard Fu Su's words, they felt indignant.
Could it be that in the eyes of the Eldest Young Master of the Great Qin Empire, they were so useless that they couldn't even tame a horse?
Therefore, after Fu Su expressed his opinion.
Wang Ben, who was standing beside the generals, stepped out as well, and his tone was also very hostile.
"Young Master Fusu is wrong!"
"Your Majesty, this is indeed a scheme for the Xiongnu, but our Great Qin soldiers are brave and have many elite soldiers. What is there to fear?”
The arrogant and despotic attitude of the Xiongnu emissary just now had already made him hold back his anger.
Wang Ben couldn't accept the fact that she was showing weakness now.
This was the difference in personality!
It was needless to say which side Ying Zheng, who had always been tough and iron-blooded, would choose.
"Well said!"
"Great Qin needs such elites to help me clear the Six Directions!”
"Pass down my order. Within the Great Qin, anyone who can train this horse will be rewarded with a thousand gold and be named Great Qin's elite.”
As soon as he said that, the generals rubbed their fists.
An An couldn't help but think.
Although it was rare to have a thousand gold coins, the elite warriors of Great Qin personally conferred by Ying Zheng were even rarer!
With this name, it would not be difficult for him to rise to the top in the future!
Right at this moment, Ying Xia, who had been silent from the beginning, received a side mission from the system.
[Side Mission: Train a horse.]
[Mission objective: Tame the fierce horses offered by the Xiongnu.]
[Mission Progress: Taming the Wild Horse 0/1]
……
In a flash, several days had passed.
During the recent court meetings, Ying Xia had clearly observed the change in the atmosphere in Xianyang Palace.
It was getting worse.
It was getting worse.
Today was already the tenth day.
The atmosphere in the court was so stifling that it was about to freeze.
Ying Zheng was still sitting high above, his face calm and expressionless.
However, among the officials, they could all guess that Shangshang was definitely not in a good mood.
There was no other reason.
After ten days, the bounty notices had been posted in all of Great Qin's Cities.
However, none of them, including Meng Tian, Wang Ben, and the other generals, had been able to tame the horse brought by the Xiongnu envoy.
All kinds of talents came, and most of them left helplessly.
Taming a horse was not like killing a horse. It was not related to strength or intelligence.
On the premise of not killing the horse.
Horse training skills were the most important.
Taming was taming, but not taming could only be done.
And the fierce horse that the Xiongnu messenger brought was really not right!
Not only did he not fall for any of the techniques of the various horse training experts.
All day long, they would either hit the manger violently or neigh non-stop.
It sounded quite tragic.
He looked like he was begging for death.
Taming my ass!
He asked the Xiongnu people what was going on with the horse.
The explanation given by the other party was that the horse was not used to the environment. This horse did not behave like this when it was in their grassland.
Who was he trying to fool?
But even if he knew it was a lie.
Since he couldn't find any flaws, he could only give up.
Based on the current situation, the only person in the imperial court who could possibly be happy was Fu Su.
After all, a few days ago, he was the only one who advised Ying Zheng not to agree to this matter.
Perhaps in the end, it would become his good name for being honest and outspoken.
Of course, it was just a possibility.
As for Ying Xia, she was still playing the role of a bystander.
He had no intention of training a horse.
It wasn't that he didn't want to complete the side quest.
As the saying goes, every profession has its own specialization.
Training horses had nothing to do with him.
He didn't know any horse training techniques. Was he going to rely on his own feelings?
It was all about feelings and no technique at all?
Wouldn't that be causing trouble?
"Your Majesty, it's already time for morning court.”
Zhao Gao, who was standing beside Ying Zheng, reminded him with a gentle voice.
Although Ying Zheng's mood could not be seen, as an inner servant who had served this man for many years, he was still very happy.
He could still feel that Ying Zheng was not happy at the moment.
He naturally wouldn't touch this bad luck.
Moreover, he had also told Huhai to play dead in the morning court to avoid any unnecessary disaster.。
Just as Ying Zheng was about to announce the next court session, a piece of good news came from outside the palace.
"Report!"
"Your Majesty, the divine steed from beyond the Great Wall that the Xiongnu brought has been tamed!”
In the royal court, a travel-worn eunuch who was in charge of delivering messages was also kowtowing to the ground, his voice trembling as he recounted the good news.
"Tamed?"
