Chapter 54
Walking out of the palace gate, Ba Xiulie repeatedly looked at the Xianyang Palace behind him. In the main hall just now, he had already revealed his last hole card.

That piece of pasture is the most fertile and lush pasture among the many pastures owned by Touman Chanyu. Every year, the output of that pasture makes all the tribes jealous, but no one can do anything about it.

Because at that time, no one dared to covet the territory of the Huns Shanyu.The Huns have always admired the strong, and Touman, as the Shanyu of the Huns, is naturally the strongest person in the entire Huns in name.

But this time, before Ba Xiulie set off, Touman secretly told Ba Xiulie that if the marriage proposal was feasible, then this pasture could be given to Daqin as a betrothal gift.

It is naturally impossible to announce such words in the court of the Huns, and Touman also knows that this approach is not advisable.

To be honest, if it was not helpless, Ba Xiulie would not want to give such a fertile pasture to Daqin, but as Touman Chanyu's confidant, Ba Xiulie had to follow Touman Chanyu's orders.

"Touman is really too weak!" Baxiulie murmured to himself.

"The Xiongnu tribe is in the hands of Touman, and sooner or later it will perish. It seems that I have to make some preparations when I go back this time."

While thinking, Ba Xiulie saw Yan Le walking towards the palace gate from a distance, the two did not communicate, they just looked at each other.However, this glance contains too much information.

"Xianyang Order, if this matter can be accomplished, Ba Xiulie will give you a thousand pieces of gold afterwards." Ba Xiulie whispered in Chinese at the moment he passed Yan Le.

daughter?

Yan Le couldn't help turning to look at Ba Xiulie, and it happened that Ba Xiulie also looked back, seeing the smile in the corner of Ba Xiulie's eyes, Yan Le knew that just now Ba Xiulie made a new promise to himself.

Prior to this, Ba Xiulie had secretly given Yan Le [-] gold, and promised to give another [-] gold afterwards.But in front of the gate of Xianyang Palace, Ba Xiulie doubled the amount.

This sentence really irritated Yan Le greatly, he never expected that the Xiongnu would be so willing to spend so much money just to marry a princess of Great Qin.

Yan Le couldn't help feeling secretly proud that the one thousand gold that Fusu threatened to lose before in the court hall, now, it was all recovered here.

Moreover, it not only removed the stumbling block of Yangzi, but also made Fusu extremely uncomfortable.

This feeling was indescribable to Yan Le!At this moment, Yan Le was so happy that he could hardly contain himself.However, on the surface, Yan Le still maintained his normal state, because he was about to meet Emperor Shihuang soon!
Seeing Yan Le step into the palace gate, Ba Xiulie couldn't help but sneered inwardly.

If Daqin is such a fool who loves money, then Daqin will become a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, and let the Huns take whatever they want.Rather than the current situation, the Qin army is in full swing, but the Xiongnu is in danger.

For the money given to Yan Le, Ba Xiulie didn't feel any distress, anyway, it was all taken out of Touman's pocket, so let's think of it as the last thing to do for him loyally!
"Chen Xianyang Ling Le pays homage to His Majesty."

"Stay flat!" Ying Zheng said impatiently.

After Baxiulie left, Ying Zheng was in a bad mood.In front of his beloved daughter and so much property, Ying Zheng felt extremely entangled.

If the matter is directly rejected, Ying Zheng will feel extremely uncomfortable when he thinks that so many horses, cattle and sheep, and a large pasture will be turned away by him.But if he agrees, it means that his Yangzi will marry far away to the Huns...

Ying Zheng clearly understands that if he is a king, he should agree to this marriage, but as a father, Commissar Ying is really unwilling.

"Your Majesty, what's bothering you?" Seeing Ying Zheng's expression, Yan Le asked knowingly.

Ying Zheng waved his hand slightly, and immediately an eunuch told Yan Le the whole story.

Yan Le pretended to be listening carefully, but in fact, his eyes kept peeking at Zhao Gao who was beside Ying Zheng.Seeing the look in his father-in-law Zhao Gao's beckoning to him, Yan Le just suppressed his thoughts.

After the eunuch finished his narration, Yan Le pretended to think for a while, then bowed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that since the envoys of the Huns have asked me, Princess Shangyi of the Great Qin, to give them their lord, and the dowry is so generous, I, the Great Qin, have absolutely no reason to refuse." .”

"Besides, the Xiongnu harassed the border several times in the past. Although General Meng Tian guarded the northern part of the country, he was still very annoying. Marrying a princess to the Huns will ensure that the border between the two countries will enjoy peace forever, and the people of the two countries will not suffer from swords and soldiers. This is a thousand years. merit."

Ying Zheng put his hands in his sleeves and remained motionless. Seeing that the first emperor didn't respond, Yan Le continued: "In the past, Queen Mother Xuan also committed herself to marrying King Yiqu to protect our Daqin country and the country, so that our borders of Daqin would not be disturbed by military disasters." , was able to accumulate national power. Later, King Zhaoxiang succeeded to the throne, and our Great Qin was able to dominate the world and compete with the six kingdoms of Shandong."

"Mencius once said: fish, what I want, and bear's paw, also what I want. You can't have both, and those who give up the fish will take the bear's paw. Your Majesty, please put the world's common people first."

In one word, Yan Le spoke impassionedly, which is why Zhao Gao valued him at the beginning.If there are no advantages, how can it be Zhao Gao's eyes?

It should be noted that Zhao Gao himself is also an outstanding talent, and he is very familiar with the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Otherwise, why did it get the attention of the first emperor?Why has the favor not diminished for 20 years?Why was Meng Yi reduced to a death penalty, but still got the pardon of the first emperor, and the favor remained the same?
The First Emperor always attached great importance to the education of the prince. If Zhao Gao did not show his full talents and abilities, how could it be Zhao Gao's turn to educate the prince?
Putting aside his position, Zhao Gao is also an extremely outstanding talent.If it weren't for this, in the original time and space, Meng Tian, ​​Meng Yi, Li Si, Feng Quji, Feng Jie and a series of senior officials of the Great Qin Dynasty would not have fallen into Zhao Gao's hands.

Only from these people who were defeated by Zhao Gao, it can be seen that Zhao Gao is not someone who is easy to deal with, and his tactics are not inferior to any old fox standing on the court.

"Xianyang Ling, you can step back first, if there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow!" Ying Zheng responded calmly.

Ying Zheng looked at the scenery outside the window, thought for a long time, and asked to the side: "Zhao Gao, what do you think about this matter?"

Zhao Gao cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, General Meng Tian has been in northern Xinjiang for three years, should he be called back to Beijing to report on his duties or should he be given a supervisor?"

Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Gao suddenly, but what he saw was a gentle smile on Zhao Gao's face.

After a long time, Ying Zheng murmured to himself: "Yes! Meng Tian has been in Northern Xinjiang for three years, and it has indeed been a long time."
