However, Ying Zheng ignored him and turned around to ask about Meng Ao and others' encounter with the army. Everyone knew what he was thinking, and they all focused on this matter. He only said that everything was ready, and he would wait for Li Mu.

It can be started at any time. When Ou Yeqing saw everyone discussing in full swing, he couldn't help but scratch his head and head anxiously, but no one paid attention to him. Until finally when Ying Zheng ordered everyone to retreat, before he could find a chance to speak, he saw that the king had turned around and walked down to the high platform.

When the inner palace was gone, Ou Yeqing suddenly felt like an eggplant beaten by frost, and could only retreat with Yu Liao and others.

But this time Ying Zheng did not mean to play with Ou Yeqing, but he saw that this person's temperament still needs to be polished. He used to have a weird temperament. If he doesn't have to turn it back now, the Ou Ye family can still serve him.

He is loyal at all times, but if there is a separation, the Qin Kingdom will definitely not be able to keep him. Such a person is the most disgusting. When he does things for you, he does his best, but his heart is not here. If he wants to leave, pat his butt and leave.

There would be no nostalgia. If Ou Yeqing, like Yu Liao and others, only came here because of his talent, and if he didn't want to do it anymore, he could leave when the affairs of the Qin State were over.

The core technology of future generations, if such a thing cannot be used by him, it cannot be in the hands of Ou Yeqing! ""The fastest updated hand type

It's a pity that at this time, it seems that the Ouye family has promised to be loyal, and the stubbornness in his bones has broken out. I am afraid that when the Ouye family is cut off, as long as the Qin royal family is still there, he will definitely follow the descendants of the Qin royal family.

, Because of this, Ying Zheng wanted to polish his temperament so that he would be willing to stay in the Qin State and let his descendants serve the Qin State. He was not just greedy for temporary pleasure, but for the sake of future generations, so that there would be people available. ""

Read the latest chapter

I am afraid that only Yu Liao and Wei Zhe, who have matured in age, have some understanding of this intention. Although Ou Yeqing is smart, his intelligence is not above favors and accidents. He now owes more and more debts to Ying Zheng.

Whether it is tin mines or secret techniques, Ying Zheng has already owed debts of gold, silk, knives and coins without asking for anything in return, and debts of gratitude are the most difficult to repay. Even if it is offset by life, it is not necessarily

It's worth it, after all, if you work for Ying Zheng, it's only for a while, but if you really learn countless secrets from Ying Zheng, the benefits of the Ouye family will be passed down from generation to generation!

Ying Zheng believed that Ou Yeqing would make a statement sooner or later, and stopped dwelling on this issue. Instead, he suddenly thought about the news Meng Tian had sent back this time. Another matter was the whereabouts of Zhao Ji's mother clan. Meng Tian had already inquired about it during this trip.

came out, and now he and King Zhao are settling in Daliang, Wei. Zhao Zong is not dead now, but he is taking this opportunity to make waves in King Zhao's army! He does know how to sneak into the camp, but it is not beyond Ying Zheng's expectation. Back then, Zhao Zong

In order to climb up, he did whatever it took to get Zhao Ji to be used by him and serve the powerful people for him. He also gave himself away to please Lin Qing of the Zhao family. It was a pity that he met him.

There was a bloodthirsty look in his eyes, and Ying Zheng smiled silently with a gloomy face. If the new weapon of the Qin State is made, it will definitely wipe out the blood of Zhao Ji's mother clan to avenge the humiliation! Ying Zheng's face showed a ferocious smile,

His hands were placed on the choke, his eyes were sinister, and his whole body was full of murderous intent.

In the end, the Ouye family lived up to Ying Zheng's expectations. As expected, Ou Yeqing went to the palace to ask for an audience, and agreed to a treaty that even the slaves thought was a bit harsh at this time, in exchange for the opportunity to study steel. He knew full well that his move would almost

The descendants of later generations were sold to the Qin royal family. If they were slaves, they would only be slaves for a while. In the future, they would have no chance to escape from slavery and return to freedom without payment. However, the agreement he agreed to was that as long as there was still one person in the Ouye family alive, he would be a slave.

Working for Ying Zheng, no matter what big things happen, the Ou Ye family will never leave the Qin royal family with the surname Zhao. When Yu Liao heard the news, he was a little surprised, but there was no surprise. Ou Yeqing devoted his whole life to making bananas.

On top of the equipment, now seeing the emergence of new stone mines, it is strange that he is not in a hurry. It is not an exaggeration to do such a thing, but now the Ouye family is equivalent to being tied to the Qin Kingdom for life and death, and he also has some feelings in his heart.

I regret it, I don’t know whether I was right or wrong in rashly dragging the Ouye family into this quagmire!

Li Mu returned to Xianyang in the early summer. Ying Zheng, Meng Ao and others went to greet him in person at the gate of Xianyang City. Many years later, Li Mu led his guards into Xianyang City and saw Ying Zheng leading everyone standing in a chariot in the distance.

On the car, the scene was exactly the same as when he returned to Xianyang. At that time, he was just a defeated general who surrendered to Qin, but he was welcomed with unprecedented grandeur. At that time, Yingzheng was held hostage by Lu Buwei, and the king's power was not strong, so he wanted to pull him back.

It was enough to make him feel grateful. Now that he had the power, he still went to the city gate to greet him in person as before. Li Mu's heart was full of mixed feelings. Although he had returned to Qin now, he still couldn't help but take Zhao.

Compared with the current Ying Zheng, King Mou Xiang is not only headstrong but also arbitrary and rude. It is impossible to reach such a point. Even King Zhao Hui, who had the kindness to meet him at the beginning, also treated him badly.

Never was there such respect

The more he thought about it, the more excited Li Mu became. He patted his horse from a distance and galloped forward. When the horse was about to approach the layers of soldiers blocking it in front of Ying Zheng, he suddenly reined in the horse.

, when the horse's front hooves were raised high, with a neighing sound, Li Mu flew off the horse, leaned forward and bowed down, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Li Mu, pay homage to your Majesty!" There was a hint of respect in his excited voice.

With the strength, everyone around could hear clearly. The former Zhao soldiers who came behind Li Mu were filled with emotion when they heard what Li Mu said.

They were defeated soldiers back then, and they never expected to have the glory they have now. The King of Qin personally came to greet them. It was not only the glory of Li Mu, but also their glory. Everyone felt the same for this favor. If they still wanted to surrender to Qin

Those who were unwilling to give up in the country were welcomed by the people of Qin State. The unwillingness and nostalgia for Zhao State in their hearts had disappeared. King Zhao Daoxiang was ruthless and unjust.

The commoner's life was disregarded. In comparison, although the Qin State had a feud with them in the past, the King of Qin did not despise them compared to King Mouxiang. He also employed people without suspicion. He was not afraid that Li Mushan was high and the king was far away, and he would not listen to orders.

Handan City gave him a fiefdom, and now that he knew Li Mu was coming back, he went to greet him in person. Even the wisest king would not be able to do this at this time.

Ying Zheng could feel the changes in Li Mu's heart, and he couldn't help but smile. If a person like Li Mu exchanged his sincerity for his loyalty, he would do his best to repay it. Ying Zheng stood on the edge of the chariot and shouted loudly

He called out: "Your Majesty, please get up! It has been many years since Zheng and Junhou. Your style is still the same. Come forward and ride with Zheng. A banquet has been set up in the palace to welcome you and wash away the dust!"

Li Mu agreed, and the soldiers who were originally blocking Ying Zheng moved to both sides to make way for him. Li Mu straightened his back and strode towards the chariot! It had been two years, but there was something about Li Mu.

He did not appear old, but showed a different spirit from back then. Perhaps he had been traveling all the way, and his face was weathered, but this did not damage Li Mu's heroic spirit at all, but added a bit more to his elegance.

The strong meaning of a man

"This is Mr. Yu. Although you two have never met, Mr. Yu has his own opinions on the art of war. If you are free, you may wish to ask him for advice!" Ying Zheng introduced the two of them, although Yu Liao and

Li Mu had never met each other before, but they had admired each other for a long time. General Li Mu's reputation was not inferior to that of Lian Po. There were few people in the world who didn't know his name. Yu Liao served as a captain after he came to Qin.

Li Mu had already known about his position. Now after hearing what Ying Zheng said, he was not afraid that his close contacts with his subordinates would make him suspicious. Both Li Mu and Yu Liao couldn't help but feel grateful. They bowed their hands and bowed to each other.

, I have a feeling in my heart that this person is well-deserved.

Meng Ao and others were all acquaintances with Li Mu. Ying Zheng introduced Han Fei to Li Mu again, and everyone greeted them separately. Ou Yeqing, who had recently been focusing on steel, did not come this time. He only sent his son Ou Yesheng over. Although Ou Yesheng's temperament

Cheerful, but not talkative. After getting to know each other with Li Mu, the chariot moved to the palace under the guard of soldiers. The soldiers who returned with Li Mu were warmly welcomed by the people on both sides of the street.

The ministers had already been waiting outside the palace gate. Li Mu first entered the palace with Ying Zheng and reported to him the changes in Handan City over the years. Although these things had been reported to Ying Zheng in letters before, they were nothing compared to telling him in person.

It became clear that the city of Handan had long been turned into a dead city due to Lao Ai's actions, and the items inside had long been burned by fire. The corpses were lined up and turned into a huge grave. When King Xiangxiang abandoned the city and fled, the common people inside did not know.

A few years have passed, and those who were lucky enough not to be burned into ashes have turned into white bones, and a layer of death has enveloped them. When Li Mu and others first entered the city, they were shocked by the tragic situation for a long time.

But God comes

The instigator, Lao Ai, has been personally executed by Li Mu, but the one who hurt the Zhao soldiers the most was the King of Zhao who abandoned his own people at the beginning! Even those who were still a little uncomfortable with Li Mu's surrender to the King of Qin saw that

In such a scene that is like a hell on earth, the last trace of grudge has disappeared! The Qin State and the Zhao State are feuding. It is not surprising that Lao Ai did such an inhumane thing in order to get promoted and make a fortune, but Zhao Yan is the king of the Zhao people.

, in the hearts of the people of Zhao State, he is no different than the existence of the sky above their heads, but in the end, in order to escape, he did not let the people catch up, and his behavior of making people lock the door made Zhao Bing resentful.

If not, it would have been impossible for the people to get out after Lao Ai set the fire. If not, it would have been impossible for all the abandoned people in the city to die! Li Mu hated it in his heart. Among these people there were also people who respected and loved him in the past, but

However, they were burned down in the fire. The Zhao soldiers forcibly collected the bodies of these people. There seemed to be a wave of resentment in Handan City. It was probably because the fire changed the geology that it could not recover for the first one or two years.

Later, Li Mu became famous, and people gradually defected to him, and Zhao Bing settled there again. Now he is gradually gaining popularity.

Speaking of the past, Li Mu's eyes filled with tears and he choked with sobs. Everyone present felt that they couldn't bear to hear this. After a long time, Ying Zheng suddenly spoke, interrupting the desolation in the whole hall: "In this case, if Handan lacks some items,

, Junhou, just say so.”

"Your Majesty, I'm so grateful." Perhaps he was infected by Ying Zheng's calm attitude. After all, Li Mu was not a sad person. He just felt sad for a while, then quickly adjusted his mood, cheered up again, and his eyes were bright.

He said: "To be fair to the king, I heard this time that the Ouye family wanted to make swords for the king. I was so shameless that I wanted to ask for some." Ying Zheng valued and admired him today. He saw it in his eyes, and Li Mu was not unaware of it.

Grateful, he spoke directly when he had something to say, and did not hold it back. He just spoke out what was in his heart. His frankness and calmness actually made people feel better about him. Ying Zheng heard this.

, smiled slightly: "Zheng also has this intention! Now that the matter of Handan City has come to an end, once the weapons are completed, Zheng wants to use troops against Zhao to cut off Wei's arm. Then one of the six countries will be missing, and after Qin

To remove an obstacle to the world, we need your help!"

Hearing this, Li Mu was stunned for a moment, with a look of hesitation on his face: "Your Majesty has great ambitions. I am honored to be able to work for Your Majesty." He paused and gritted his teeth, then suddenly

He stood up from the futon, walked to the palace and knelt down: "I'm just brave, please take back this fate!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a deathly silence in the hall. Ying Zheng's expression was playful and unpredictable, his eyes were as cold as water. He held the wine cup in his hand, but he did not speak. He just held it in his hand and played with it. His nose was high.

A shadow cast on the side of his face, making his eyes a little dark and inexplicable. A nervous pressure suddenly rose, making everyone feel heavy and breathless! Li Mu's forehead quickly became sweaty, but he knelt down.

His tall figure was as motionless as a rock. Kneeling there, even his hair seemed to be frozen.

Yu Liao sighed inwardly, knowing that Li Mu's words had violated Ying Zheng's taboo. In the past, Li Mu was an old minister of the Zhao State, and now Ying Zheng intends to use him to attack the Zhao State. It seems to have two meanings. One is to prove his trust in Li Mu's loyalty.

, so he is not afraid that Li Mu will lead his troops to rebel against Qin and surrender to Zhao; secondly, it is also possible that he does not trust Li Mu and intends to use this matter to make Li Mu prove his loyalty! The same sentence is just a thought, and the result is

The world is so different. Now it just depends on how Li Mu explains it. If one of them is not good, I am afraid that Lord Wu An will be greatly honored. But it is also possible that he will end up being sentenced to death just like Bai Qi did before. Two generations of Lord Wu An are now in the same situation.

Similarly, Yu Liao's mind turned around, but in the end he admired a talent like Li Mu, so he stepped out and handed it over:

"Your Majesty, why don't you allow me to report back to you? You are an upright person, so this move must have its purpose!"

When Yu Liao came forward to intercede, his heart felt like a bow. The nervous Meng Ao immediately wiped his sweat and followed suit to plead: "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Once these two people start begging for mercy, Li Siweizhe and others will not be able to make any money. Li Mu has been a revolutionary friend with them for many years, and there is no big grudge between them on weekdays. Naturally, it is impossible to see him suffer because of a disagreement with Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng looked coldly at the group of people kneeling in front of him, and suddenly laughed, "When did Zheng ever say that he wanted to blame Junhou? It's just that

There were difficulties among colleagues, but you did not sit idly by, and Zheng was very happy. In this case, why did the monarch not want to lead troops to attack Zhao? Let me tell you the details. Zheng believed that the monarch was a human being, and he would not be worried about Zhao being the emperor's homeland.

"kindness"

At this time, people did not attach much importance to the concept of the country, but what Ying Zheng said at this time obviously had a profound meaning. Li Mu felt a chill in his heart, but he breathed a sigh of relief. He only felt that Ying Zheng had not seen him for two years, and his aura was restrained and once it breaks out.

, even more so than before. Even at that moment when he felt his displeasure, he couldn't help but stiffen. Seeing that he was willing to listen to his explanation, Li Mu felt grateful to Yu Liao and others.

, but he kowtowed respectfully, put his forehead to the ground, and said loudly: "To be honest with you, since I returned to the Qin Kingdom, I have been so kind to the king, but I have nothing to repay, and I definitely don't bother to do such things. It's just among my old subordinates.

, many of them were from Zhao in the past, and although the King of Zhao was incompetent, his subordinates Lian Po and Sima Shang were very talented, and there were many eloquent people under his command. Although I abandoned Zhao and surrendered to Qin, it was a wise move for me to meet the Ming Lord.

But the people of Zhao will definitely hate me to the core. If I lead the troops to attack, the people of Zhao will fight to the death. He is honest and talented, and I am no better than him. If the generals are very different, the one with the higher morale will win."

When he said this, everyone present except Ou Yesheng did not understand military affairs. Even Li Si, who had been ravaged by Wei Zhe for a period of time, had gradually gained some skills in military affairs. He was not as blind as before.

Wan Wan already understood in his heart and couldn't help but nod secretly. If the two generals are about the same strength, they are fighting for strength and morale. Under such circumstances, the Qin soldiers only killed the enemy for meritorious service, while the Zhao people did not care about death due to the blood feud.

Fighting, whether you win or lose, the outcome is also obvious

Ying Zheng also knew this truth. After listening to what he said, he said calmly: "If Zheng says that an army of 200,000 people is at your command, what do you think?"

"With a large number of enemies, it is natural to take advantage of all the people, but Lian Po is quite talented. In the past, King Xianzhao ordered General Wang Ling and others to attack Handan. I wonder if your Majesty has any impression?" Li Mu did not stand up, but said instead
