Chapter 1197
Cheng Yaojin walked in at this time, Wang Mang quickly wiped his lips and palms with a silk scarf on one side, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's done." Cheng Yaojin nodded and said, "You two adults should be more careful when visiting this time."

After hearing this, He Sheng asked curiously, "I wonder if the general has any news?"

"There is no news. The general has already dispatched general Qiu Lin Mingqi to follow you to the Kingdom of Shu." Cheng Yaojin glanced at He Sheng who still had betel nuts in his mouth, and frowned involuntarily.

He Sheng also realized that he had lost his composure, so he spit out the betel nut from his mouth, and slightly cupped his hands towards Cheng Yaojin.

"Since this is the case, let's go on the road." Wang Mang didn't care about the darkening sky.

"No rush, wait until tomorrow morning to set off." Cheng Yaojin clasped his hands and said, "I will set up a banquet for the two envoys later, and wish them success.

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders!" Wang Mang got up and said, He Sheng also got up.

In the early morning of the second day, when it was gray in Siye, Wang Mang and Zheng He had already arrived on the battleship, and they could see groups of fishermen not far away, paddling their fishing boats ashore. A variety of sea fish.

"Since ancient times, soldiers have suffered from night blindness, so the army seldom moves at night. Only by eating cod liver oil can this strange disease be cured." Wang Mang booed endlessly: "This is also from the mouth of the emperor. The sea, the overseas lands, are all under the control of my Great Qin, and your majesty is the sage and enlightened lord."

He Sheng was not stingy with his praise at this time: "Even if it is the ancient soup of Yao, Shun and Yu, it is nothing more than that."

Qiu Lin Mingqi was gnawing beef jerky in his hand, and when he heard the two say something praising the emperor, he couldn't help but walked over, and tore off two pieces of beef jerky in his hand to share with the two of them.

Neither of them refused. Since the Great Qin was rich in the grasslands, there was no shortage of beef, sheep, and horse meat in Qin.

"The lower official is overseas, and I don't know what's going on in the court. I dare to ask the two adults, how is King Qin doing now?" Qiu Lin Mingqi is from the Huns, and like most Huns, they all hope that Ying Wushuang will inherit the Great Qin Dynasty. country's foundation.

"This..." Wang Mang suddenly realized that the beef jerky wasn't very tasty, and he said vaguely, "His Royal Highness Qin Wang is now going to Gaotang County. This year, there was a plague of locusts there, so he went to inspect it."

After hearing this, Qiu Lin Mingqi frowned: "I heard that the emperor is mobilizing a large army to attack the state of Jin. Didn't the king of Qin go with the emperor?"

"The emperor hopes that the king of Qin will manage the politics well, and this time the emperor will personally lead the expedition. Do you think there is anyone more suitable to lead the army than the emperor?" Hearing Qiu Lin Mingqi's tone, Wang Mang was a little displeased, and his voice was displeased. I became stricter.

"Of course I don't dare." Qiu Lin Mingqi also realized his gaffe: "I heard that His Royal Highness King Qin made a mistake before, and I hope that he can get back together. There is no other meaning."

"It's better not!" At this time, a warrior suddenly came out from the team following Wang Mang's south, and raised a badge in his hand with a cold face, "Jinyiwei Baihu Menghu is here, if you just said something If you are disrespectful to the emperor, you will be sorry to the general."

Qiu Lin Mingqi's face twitched, and he laughed dryly: "The sun and the moon can learn from the general's loyalty to the emperor!"

"This is the best!" Jin Yiwei Baihu Meng Hu looked at Qiu Lin Mingqi with a half-smile.

Even if Qiu Lin Mingqi is overseas, who on the Qin side doesn't know about the important things that Jin Yiwei did in the imperial court?At the moment, he just cupped his hands and pushed it aside.

Wang Mang and He Sheng couldn't help but looked at each other, neither of them knew about this Jinyiwei hundred households!

Meng Hu, however, acted as if nothing had happened, put away his badge, and went to another place again.

"Is that a whale?" He Sheng asked aloud, pointing to a giant fish floating on the water in the distance.

Wang Mang nodded and said, "That's right, that's a whale; people here in Yizhou often go out to sea and shoot them with powerful crossbows. After this huge whale dies, it often attracts another kind of fierce whale. Our army's Soldiers are on the battleship, and they continue to shoot them with powerful crossbows, often reaping a lot of rewards. A few years ago, General Cheng even sent a huge spice to the capital, which was obtained by shooting whales in the sea."

"Tsk tsk, now I know why Neptune was crowned king." He Sheng praised: "On the sea, all kinds of materials can be said to be inexhaustible. Every year, my production in the sea is also very amazing."

Wang Mang nodded and suddenly narrowed his eyes, looked at the vast and boundless ocean, and said in a low voice: "Aside from the need to unify the world as our primary goal, what does Master He think is lacking now?"

"What's missing?" He Sheng looked at Wang Mang with some puzzlement.

Wang Mang suddenly laughed and said: "But all kinds of minerals! According to my officials in the court these years, there will be no shortage of silver for the time being."

He Sheng suddenly asked: "Master Wang is talking about the silver mine discovered in Wo County?"

"That's right, there are countless silver mines mined in Wo County, which can be used by my Great Qin, but over the years, the supply of iron ore, copper ore, and coal has been in short supply in my Great Qin, and I secretly thought that I wanted to occupy it in the emperor's heart." It’s better to break through from this side if you have a seat. Today, you and I are going to the Kingdom of Shu as envoys, and we don’t know what life or death will be like. Why don’t you say what I think in your heart? If you can come back alive, you and I will do this together how?"

"If it succeeds at this time, it will definitely be famous through the ages!" He Sheng's breathing also became rapid.

Wang Mang's eyes exuded arrogance: "That's right! And according to the records of the ancient Yan Kingdom these years, I found that near the Changbai Mountains between Liaodong Kingdom and Tang County, besides ginseng, there are countless iron ore, coal, and even There will be a lot of copper mines, originally I planned to write a letter to the emperor in the spring of next year, but now I am on an envoy to Shu, life and death are unpredictable, so I couldn't help but tell you."

He Sheng felt his heart beating violently: "If the two of us succeed in going to Shu Kingdom this time, I will definitely help each other with all my strength!"

"This is the best way!" Wang Mang glanced at He Sheng meaningfully, and then said, "After we meet the Emperor of Shu, please ask Mr. He to follow me in everything, how about it?"

"Brother Wang is the envoy personally appointed by the emperor, and it is only natural to obey your orders."

Wang Mang nodded slightly, and his face changed slightly: "I don't know why, when I was on the Yizhou Island this time, I still felt confident, but the closer I got to the Kingdom of Shu, the more I felt that there would be something in my heart. Something is going to happen."

He Sheng's complexion changed suddenly upon hearing Wang Mang's words: "Someone also feels this way."
