Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 225 Is this special meow a meal for people?
Assassinating Pasadei's mother and daughter can indeed solve once and for all the threat they brought to the Western countries by recruiting followers in Great Qin.

As soon as the envoys of Great Xia uttered these meaningful words, the eyes of the envoys from the western countries could not help but brighten up, and they couldn't help exchanging glances with each other.

As long as the Qin people are not left behind, this method is very feasible, at least as high as the third or fourth floor!
shhh-

As if to confirm this method, the feasibility of a three- or four-story building, and the unique sound of two feathered arrows piercing the sky, suddenly reached the ears of the envoys.

Then, the envoys saw that two feathered arrows had been shot at the bodies of Queen Pasode and her little girl, Anniewe.

ding ding-

After the two faint sounds, the feathered arrows were pulled together and hung on the loose plain robes of the mother and daughter, but failed to shoot in.

This is obviously lined with armor inside the robe!
However, it was really scary enough. There was a moment of stillness in the scene, and then the scene became chaotic.

The golden-masked female knights pulled out their bronze sabers in unison, and surrounded Pasadem and her daughter.

The Hu merchant believers who were a little closer, some rushed forward to protect Pasadei's mother and daughter, and some rushed towards the place where the feather arrow came, and those who wanted to catch the assassin were even more filled with righteous indignation, and rushed directly to the distance to watch Envoys of Western countries.

No one is running away!

The believers of the Hu merchants themselves were holding their breath, and now they caught those idiots repeating their tricks, and they gritted their teeth, rushing forward to turn over one by one.

The envoys from the western countries were all dumbfounded, and they all turned to look at the equally dumbfounded Daxia envoy: "You sent an assassin?"

Daxia's envoy came back to his senses, and immediately said: "No, it's not me, don't talk nonsense..."

Seeing those masked Hu merchant believers charging fiercely, he didn't bother to explain, and after three consecutive denials, he fled in the opposite direction.

Envoys from Western countries: "..."

The envoys were stunned for a moment, and then they ran away for their lives while scolding him for his lack of loyalty.

Seeing them fleeing for their lives, the followers of the Hu merchants believed that they were the ones who did it, and roared angrily to speed up the pursuit.

To borrow a sentence from a certain justice, you didn't hit it, so why did you help it?

It wasn't your assassin, why did you run?
If you run away, you have a guilty conscience, and you are the assassin you sent!

"Bold Hu Nu, mess with my law and order in Xianyang, I will stand up for this general, whoever dares to mess around will be killed~!!!"

Murderous shouts sounded, and the scene suddenly fell silent.

Only this morning was the massacre of followers of the Hu merchants. In order to prevent frequent murders and affect the public security in Xianyang, the Neishi Mansion sent a group of patrolmen to be responsible for the affairs of the Hu merchants.

At this moment, the commotion broke out again, so we must stand up and make peace!
A group of fully armed patrols, either drew their swords, or drew their bows and arrows, just waiting for the commander of the village to give an order, they will kill the barbarians who dare not obey the order!
However, all the barbarians are very obedient to orders...

The followers of the Hu merchants who protected Pasadei's mother and daughter, the followers of the Hu merchants who were looking for assassins, and the followers of the Hu merchants who chased down the envoys of the western countries all stood still and did not dare to move.

Including those envoys from the western countries who fled in embarrassment, also stopped in horror.

"Humph~!"

The patrol chief snorted coldly, his expression softened a little, and he ordered ten patrols to go after the assassin.

Then, he pushed away the Hu merchant believers surrounding Pasade's mother and daughter, and pushed away the golden-masked female knights inside to check on Pasade's mother and daughter. Seeing that they were all safe, they took away the murder weapon.

That is, two feathered arrows of cork clusters!

Then, he replaced them with two flat-leaf-shaped arrows with clusters of feathers, which are very Western-style. He walked out of the encirclement with a serious expression, walked towards the envoys of the Western countries, and asked, "Are you the assassins sent by you?"

"not me……"

"I do not have……"

"It's definitely not me waiting~!"

All the envoys desperately shook their heads in denial, and turned to Qi Qi to look at the Daxia envoys.

It seemed that he wanted to remind the patrol chief that the envoy of Daxia was the most suspicious, but it was not easy to speak directly.

Great Xia Envoy: "..."

I will hold your mother for eighteen generations!

Do you want to pin the blame on me!
Following the gazes of the envoys, the patrol chief looked at the envoys of Daxia coldly and asked, "But you sent an assassin?"

The Great Xia envoy hurriedly shook his head, and said again: "I didn't, it wasn't me, please don't make random guesses~!"

The patrol chief frowned, and was about to say something more, but Queen Pasade and her little girl, Annewei, led the golden-masked female guards and the followers of the Hu merchants, and said loudly, neither humble nor overbearing: "Respected General Qin, Western merchants Not far away, I have worked hard to do business in Daqin, and I have never been short of the business tax I should pay."

"Even, they have to serve Daqin every year to obtain the qualification to do business in Daqin."

"Western merchants have fulfilled taxes and corvee, and should be protected by the Daqin government!"

The little girl, Anniewei, also said immediately: "Western merchants in the territory of Daqin don't expect anything else, only the reasonable treatment they deserve~!"

The believers of the Hu merchants almost burst into tears when they heard this. The two saintesses have said what we want to say but dare not say.

Daqin really should give us the treatment we deserve, at least...should not treat us harshly!

The inspector chief gave Pasadei mother and daughter a cold look, but said in his mouth: "This statement is in line with the law, and the Neishi government will certainly give the Hu merchants justice."

After speaking, he turned to look at Da Xia's envoy again, and said coldly: "It doesn't matter who among you is the mastermind behind the scenes, or whether you are all the mastermind and are the accomplices... At this moment, you all have Suspect!"

Daxia's envoy immediately refused to accept it: "Why? Why do you say we are suspected?"

The patrol chief immediately said: "Because you threatened the Hu merchants yesterday, you have a motive for committing the crime."

The Great Xia envoy lost his temper in an instant.

The patrol chief continued: "Nian Er and others are envoys from foreign countries, so we will not make things difficult."

"However, before our Internal History Office finds out the real culprit, if there is an unnamed vendetta and assassination, you will be deported and return home after eating sand and drinking west wind~!"

The envoys of the western countries were embarrassed, they felt that they were suffering, and they all looked at the envoy of Da Xia, as if they were blaming him for messing around.

Daxia envoy's face was gloomy, and he was so angry that he said it was not me, a group of damned guys, why didn't they believe it?
And the disciples of the Hu merchants, seeing that General Daqin started to speak for himself after being PCUed by two saintesses, restrained these unscrupulous envoys, couldn't help being excited in their hearts, and couldn't help clenching their fists.

This is the first time Hu merchants have been treated fairly in Daqin. This is a great victory for the Hu merchants, and it is also a great victory for the Zoroastrians.

And all these victories came from the mother and daughter of Pasade!

After a while, the envoys of the western countries were driven away by the patrols, telling them not to pester Hu merchants if they had nothing to do, otherwise they would all be judged as murderers.

In the end, the inspector chief left a sentence and left with the inspector: "From tomorrow onwards, when the inspector sees Hu merchants gathering in the downtown area, he will be punished as picking quarrels and provoking trouble!"

After everyone left, the Hu merchants immediately prostrated themselves at the feet of Pasade's mother and daughter, praising in unison piously: "The great Ahura will surely shine on the two saintesses with light forever~! "

Pasade's mother and daughter listened to their praises, but there was nothing but sadness in their hearts.

Your beliefs are nothing but a tool for the Qin people to seize the Western world. The ignorant religion is really harmful...

Queen Pasade suppressed the sadness in her heart, raised her hand to support her whether she was happy or not, and said: "Get up, there are only a dozen or so houses left, and try to redeem all the church members before sunset today."

"Follow the order of the saint~!"

The Hu merchants cheered up again, continued to form a team, followed Pasadem and her daughter, and went to redeem the slaves.

……

At the same time, the envoys from the western countries who were driven away by the patrols were all blaming the envoys of Great Xia.

"You are too sloppy. You only arranged for two archers to assassinate those two witches..."

"Now that the opportunity to assassinate is wasted, it will be difficult to get rid of them in the future."

"It's not just difficult, there is no chance, just wait for them to counterattack!"

……

The envoys' chattering complaints made Daxia's envoy gloomy, and said impatiently: "I said, the assassin was not sent by me, why do you push me hard? Is my suspicion really that big? ?”

All the envoys nodded together: "Yes~!"

"Who told you to say about the assassination earlier, and just as you finished speaking, the assassin launched an assassination on Pasade's mother and daughter. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?"

"Who would believe it if you said it wasn't arranged by you?"

Daxia's envoy was speechless, and he really admired these guys. He took a deep breath and said calmly: "If I planned to assassinate, those two demon girls would have no chance of surviving, but...why did I rush to do that?" ?”

"Have you ever thought about who is most beneficial to get rid of those two demon girls?"

"In other words, if those two witches get the support of countless Fire Worshipers and launch a western expedition to the western world starting from Daqin, who will be the first to be unlucky?"

"No matter who is the first to be unlucky, it is definitely not our Great Xia Kingdom... The Great Qin Empire is thousands of miles away from Great Xia Kingdom, and when they lead the disciples, conquer your country, and reach Great Xia Kingdom, I don't know how many years have passed. , what am I in a hurry for?"

"Unless I am crazy, I will risk being punished by the Great Qin Shihuang and arrange for assassins to assassinate them. What I said earlier was purely to induce you to assassinate, understand?"

This time, the envoys from the western countries were speechless, and they looked at each other for a while without saying a word.

The words are rough and the rationale is not rough, although the Great Xia envoys are always looking for trouble, and everyone is involved.

But looking at their starting point, they are all what an envoy of a big country should do, and he can be said to be brave and resourceful.

It's just that in the Great Qin Empire, Tai Temiao's BUG made his courage and conspiracy repeatedly deflated, harming others and himself, so he seemed inexplicably incompetent!
And their analysis is also reasonable. Comparatively speaking, they should be more anxious. Their country is sandwiched between Daqin and Daxia. If they are unlucky, their country will be the first to be unlucky.

Get rid of those two witches, the one who will benefit the most is not the Great Xia Kingdom, but their country...

Therefore, the real mastermind behind the dispatch of the assassins is actually more likely to be one of them, especially those whose country is closer to Daqin, the suspicion is not ordinary!
The envoys of Dawan Kangju and other countries in the far west could not help but move quietly when they thought of this, and stood together with the envoys of Daxia, and at the same time looked suspiciously at the envoys of Loulan, Wusun, Jingjue, and Che Shi .

Their country borders on the Hexi feudal kingdom of the Great Qin Prime Minister, so the suspicion is undoubtedly the greatest!

"Hmph, it really is an ignorant idiot..."

The envoy of Great Xia looked at the envoys of the Far West Kingdom standing beside him, but he didn't give them a good face, and said coldly: "I only know what others say, don't you know how to use your own brains?"

The faces of the envoys from the Extreme West Kingdom turned black, and they frowned and said angrily, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

The envoys of Loulan Wusun and other countries explained at this time: "You imply that we are the most suspicious. Don't you know that we are just like you, and it is too late to be afraid of Daqin, so how dare we take the initiative to commit murder in the territory of Daqin and give Daqin the excuse to send troops to crusade? ?”

Daxia's envoy was noncommittal: "So I said, they don't know how to use their own brains."

"Your suspicions are indeed great, but the ones with the greatest suspicions are actually the Lord and Minister of Qin."

"I don't know what kind of deal those two witches and Daqin made, and they were able to speak in front of the first emperor of Qin. It's hard to guarantee that everything they planned with Daqin was used to blame us and win the hearts of believers..."

This guy's brain hole is big enough, and he actually deduced the truth.

However, it was precisely because his brain was too big and the taste of guessing out of thin air was too strong, he himself didn't seem to believe it very much. After he finished speaking, he stopped talking to everyone and strode back to his residence.

Now, what is the truth is no longer important, what is important is how to get enough travel expenses to return home as soon as possible, and bring the matter of Pasade's mother and daughter back to the west, so that the nobles in the country can work together to deal with it!
……

At dusk, Pasade's mother and daughter finally led the team of believers to complete the redemption of all Hu merchant slaves in front of a slave owner's house in Xianyang City, and planned to lead the team out of the city.

"Leave a way, then there are many people in strange clothes Xiaoju? Don't block the way of the princes~!"

Several horse-drawn carriages came from the direction of the inner city, all of which were large four-wheelers or even five-wheelers. The retainers accompanying the vehicles had to yell loudly at the huge team of believers occupying the road.

Hu merchant believers wearing masks hurriedly moved out of the way, including Queen Pasade and the little girl Annie Wei.

The people in the car are all high-ranking ministers, rushing to take a rest tomorrow, come to the outer city to find food and drinks, and relax their body and mind.

"Well, isn't this Queen Pasade, and her daughter An Weiwei? Why are there so many followers of Hu merchants?"

Through the glass car window, Meng Tian saw Pasade, mother and daughter surrounded by golden-masked female guards, and couldn't help saying in amazement.

He already recognized the so-called strangely dressed people on both sides of the road as barbarians. Masks could cover their faces, but they couldn't cover their flaxen curly hair.

Hearing Meng Tian's suspicious voice, the retainers accompanying the car explained with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't know, this morning, in front of the Zoroastrian Temple outside the city, someone found a Hu merchant believer dead and was disturbed by others. He was slashed to death with a knife, and his death was extremely tragic."

"It is said that the envoys of the western countries sent people to do it, in order to deter those Hu merchants who still believe in religion."

"However, such domineering behavior has aroused the anger of the Hu merchants. Ninety-nine percent of the Hu merchants in Xianyang have devoted themselves to the two so-called saints..."

"Those envoys from the western countries are indeed too domineering. Those two saintesses rescued the bankrupt Hu merchants. The Hu merchants are grateful for their faith. It is human nature. Even if they want to prevent their own people from believing, they should gradually advance. , how can there be any reason to intimidate and then kill people?"

"It's simply forcing people to rebel!"

The vassals took the matter of dogs biting dogs among the barbarians as an anecdote to Meng Tian, ​​and expressed their own opinions by the way.

Meng Tian was stunned when he heard it, and nodded his head and said: "So... No, I'm afraid it's not that simple!"

He nodded his head halfway, but suddenly froze, his eyes full of suspicion.

After a while, the suspicion gradually turned into a strange smile: "Miaozai, what a smooth sailing... Well, it's not right... This is probably a serial scheme, everything is within the scheme~!"

The retainers were at a loss, not knowing what Meng Tian's inexplicable words meant, but seeing that he was interested, they continued to narrate: "In the afternoon, the envoys of the Western countries jumped over the wall and sent archers to openly assassinate the two Zoroastrians. Saintess."

"However, these two saintesses were also very alert. They actually wore an iron armor lining under their large robes, so the assassination failed."

"As for the thousands of Hu merchants who believed in them, there was a turmoil at that time, chasing and killing the envoys of Western countries who were pretending to watch the fun. Fortunately, a patrol came forward to stop them and promised to catch the real culprit, otherwise... Hmph, none of those envoys can escape, most likely they will be trampled to pieces!"

Meng Tian listened and licked, couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement, and finally said: "This is another wonderful move by Prime Minister Qin, which promotes the unity of the army, and its momentum is great~!"

……

……

In the backyard of the villa next to the Houfu Academy, Qin Mo, who is good at playing chess, is still playing chess with Hu Hai.

However, the gameplay has changed from backgammon to tiger eating children.

Hu Hai was not familiar with the new way of playing for a while, Qin Mo finally regained his sense of superiority, manipulated two black tigers, and kept eating up one unlucky white baby after another, killing all directions was very enjoyable.

Fu Su and old Fan Zeng didn't bother to watch the chess anymore, the game was too naive and eye-catching.

They were on the shore, and Ying Bu, who had reported the news, asked about the situation of Pasade's mother and daughter. They were all acquaintances, but they were not cautious.

"...I saw the opportunity and quickly fired two arrows. Regardless of whether I hit or missed, I jumped into the prepared house next to me and changed into ordinary clothes. Assassin, then went to hunt down and kill the envoys of various countries present."

"Queen Pasade and Princess Anneway led the followers of the Hu merchants to confront the envoys of various countries. The head of the patrol followed the steps and made a gesture of fairness to them... After this incident, the followers of the Hu merchants became even more Praise them."

"Now that they have redeemed all the Hu merchant slaves, what to do next depends on the master's arrangement."

When Ying Bo said this, he looked at Qin Mo who was still playing chess with Hu Hai.

Fu Su and old Fan Zeng also looked at Qin Mo following his gaze.

Qin Mo seemed to have sensed their gazes and knew that it was time to get down to business, so he raised his hand and lifted the chessboard, went ashore and said, "The next step is to see when the Ministry of Finance can create new coins..."

Hu Hai jumped angrily from behind: "You are being stupid, I finally won~!"

Fusu: "..."

Old Fan Zeng: "..."

The new gameplay has not been played for a few rounds, and Hu Hai is going to win again?

Qin Mo ignored the maddened Hu Hai, took a cotton bath towel to wipe off the water on his body, and while changing into dry underpants and clothes, he said: "Young masters and princesses should be back from shopping for ingredients, today we will eat a western region delicacy , Yingbu, you can also stay and have a taste."

Yingbu was overwhelmed by flattery, and hurriedly bowed his hands: "Then... Bu will be disrespectful."

When Hu Hai heard that there was delicious food to eat, he didn't get mad immediately, and followed Qin Mo to climb ashore, put on dry clothes, and followed Qin Mo out of the backyard.

Fusu and old Fan Zeng smiled, put on their clothes, and went out of the backyard with Yingbu to drink tea in the front hall.

……

The princes and princesses have indeed returned, and they are in the front yard with Lu Xiaomei, yelling and killing chickens.

Those chickens didn't know what evil they had done in their previous lives, and they were tortured by a group of untouchable guys.

There was even a chicken whose head was directly chopped off, and the headless body was running wildly in the yard, spilling blood all the way, and all the princes and princesses screamed in fright, the scene was simply horrible!
Concubine Yu and Lu Zhi didn't even say to help, they just watched the excitement from the sidelines, tears of joy came out.

Qin Mo reached out and grabbed the chicken that hit Xingtian, turned around to control the blood: "The little vitality is quite tenacious..."

Lu Xiaomei and the princes and princesses breathed a sigh of relief, and each of them praised: "Brother-in-law is still amazing, we... let's wait and eat."

Qin Mo didn't talk nonsense, and quickly slaughtered the remaining chickens to control the blood, and her husband Sun brought hot water for him to pluck and wash.

Seeing this, Yu Ji and Lu Zhi stopped watching the fun and put on their aprons to join.

Yuan Man also wanted to step forward to help, but thinking of the tragic scene just now, he had no choice but to give up the idea, and led Lu Xiaomei and a group of younger brothers and sisters to clean up the blood on their bodies.

However, Hu Hai didn't open any pot and carried which pot. He laughed and joked behind him: "The eldest sister is not at all like Qin Xiang's bride, and she doesn't know how to cook. Look at the two sisters, Yu Ji and E Yan... ah~!!!"

Yuan Man suddenly turned around and kicked his ass, Hu Hai took off in an instant, landed and slid another ten feet away.

After getting up, he didn't dare to provoke Yuan Man anymore, instead he followed Qin Mo into the kitchen with great interest to watch him make chicken...

But after a while, he screamed and rushed out of the kitchen, with tears in his eyes, and screamed: "Che, choke, choke, choke!"

Even Concubine Yu, Lu Zhi, and her husband and grandson couldn't stand it anymore, and rushed out of the kitchen one after another, coughing heart-piercingly.

This scene is somewhat scary.

And as they came out of the stove, a choking spicy smell also wafted out of the stove, and everyone who smelled it coughed.

"Gudu~!"

Yingbo swallowed hard, and suddenly regretted staying for dinner.

Is this special meow a meal for people?
It smells so spicy, if you eat it in your mouth, you don't want to die?
……

About half an hour later, Qin Mo finally came out of the stove, carrying a large bowl of brightly red chicken nuggets, and sent them into the hall where the bowls and chopsticks had been prepared earlier: "Come on, let's taste it first. Authentic big plate chicken from the Western Regions, so spicy and ecstasy, you can still eat half of the pot if you let it go.”

Everyone looked at the bright red soup in the big pot, and the amount of chili, pepper, and pepper that was almost equal to the amount of chicken, and they all felt their scalps tingling.

Is this really something for people to eat?

Yingbu grinned with a smile that was uglier than crying, and said, "My lord is used to joking, how can there be such a way to eat chicken in the Western Regions..."

In the past two years, he has often traveled overseas business routes, and he has a great say in this.

"It has been available since today, and I will make the Western Regions fall in love with this way of eating in the future."

Qin Mo hesitantly explained, and picked up a pair of bowls and chopsticks himself and said, "Don't just look at it, eat it~!"

Yingbo looked at Fusu: "The prince is here, so there is no reason for Bu to move his chopsticks first."

Fusu's face turned green, and he immediately picked up a piece of chicken, put it into the old Fan Zeng's bowl next to him, and said respectfully, "Elders eat first."

Everyone nodded in unison: "The elders eat first~!"

Old Fan Zeng: "..."

Old Fan Zeng looked around, as if he had brought his husband Sun here to do the experiment first, but he didn't see anyone after watching for a long time, so he just closed his eyes and stuffed chicken nuggets into his mouth, smacking and chewing.

Leaning slightly, the resistance on Lao Fan Zeng's face gradually disappeared, replaced by surprise, he nodded and praised while chewing: "Well, delicious, very delicious~!"

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw him like this, so they all picked up chicken nuggets to taste, and then...

"Ah, I'm so hot~!!!"

"Old Fan, how can you do this???"

"Being old and disrespectful, the world is going down..."
