Chapter 197 Help sober up
"Young Master, Huang Yuan went to the Guanghua Palace to find you. He said that he had something very important to report, so I took it upon myself to take him to the gate of the Imperial Garden. Young Master, would you like to go take a look?"
Not long after the banquet started, the young eunuch Mingde leaned into the young lady's ear and whispered a report.
"Oh? Something very important?"
The young lady was preparing to pick up the dishes. When she heard that Huang Yuan was looking for him, she was startled for a moment. Then she seemed to think of something. She put down her chopsticks and jumped down from the carved chair. While no one was paying attention to him, she threw her calves towards the emperor.
Run to the garden gate.
He had a lot of things to do for Huang Yuan during this period, but the title of today's banquet was his birthday, so it must be a big deal for Huang Yuan to interrupt his birthday banquet to report!
"Good news...good news...young master!"
Huang Yuan, who had been wandering restlessly at the entrance of the Imperial Garden, started shouting and waving to him from all the way after seeing the figure of Little Shota.
"What good news?"
Seeing him like this, Xiaozheng really wanted to pretend not to know him.
But there is nothing I can do, there are so many things to do, I can’t even pretend not to know them!
What's more, they came with good news this time!
"It's an artillery...the artillery test was successful, it's very powerful!"
Huang Yuan, who had always been calm, suddenly became stammering, which showed how excited he was.
"Oh? The artillery has been tested?"
Xiao Zhengtai's eyes suddenly lit up.
When Ying Zheng deceived several envoys before, he heard a thunderous sound. Seeing that no one else had any reaction, he thought he heard it wrong.
Now think about it, it was not thunder at all, but the sound produced when artillery was fired!
It's just that everyone's attention was focused on the envoy at that time, and no one noticed at all!
"That's right, the artillery test was in a deep mountain outside the city. With just one shot, it flattened the hilltop on the opposite side. The power is much greater than that of a mine!"
Thinking of the shocking scene at that time, Huang Yuan started dancing with joy to describe it.
"Of course, otherwise, why would I bother studying him?"
The arsenal was originally renovated by the elixir supervisor in the palace for the purpose of studying earth buds.
After Di Lei showed its power, it was changed to mass production outside the city.
And now the artillery!
From cost to labor, the arsenal is all made by Xiaoshota!
If mines and artillery weren't powerful weapons, why would he bother?
"Hahaha, if we attack the city in the future, we can save a lot of troops. With two cannons, the city gate will be almost completely destroyed!"
"Well, that's right...!"
Xiao Zhengtai nodded and continued: "You go down first, the banquet is not over yet, I still have to deal with it!"
If it weren't for those people inside, he would really want to go and see the power of that artillery right now!
"yes!"
Huang Yuan bowed his hands and said goodbye, and the young lady also turned around and went to the imperial garden for the banquet.
"Your Majesty, I, the Huns, have countless cattle and sheep, and even more horses, and they are all well-equipped cavalry!"
"The men on my grassland feed on meat and are very strong, unlike you people from the Central Plains, who are all weak!"
"My Xiongnu soldiers are so brave that they can easily defeat ten of them one by one, haha!"
"But don't worry, Your Majesty, I, the Xiongnu, are neighbors to the Qin Dynasty, and we will definitely be on good terms with them, and we will never go to war with them!"
…
Before the young lady returned to the banquet, she heard the arrogant voice of the Huns envoy Ges from a distance.
This guy drank a bowl of strong wine. He must have been so drunk that he couldn't hold his tongue straight when he spoke!
And at this time, he stopped pretending and expressed all his contempt for Da Qin in his heart. Even if Harry kept tugging on his clothes, he didn't notice it and still had an arrogant attitude!
Although Ying Zheng was angry, his purpose today was to keep them here and not let them send news back.
For this reason, he could only endure it!
Ying Zheng didn't say anything. Although several generals glared at him, they didn't dare to take action without permission, so they had to grit their teeth and endure!
"Your Majesty, don't blame me. General Gus just drank a bowl of strong wine and is already drunk. What he says is drunken talk. Your Majesty, don't take it to heart!"
Seeing that Gus still kept talking and ignored him, Harry had no choice but to stand up and apologize.
Although what he said was an apology, his attitude was obviously arrogant!
Because what Gus told the truth, the strength of the Huns has skyrocketed year by year, especially after the young Chanyu took office, his methods are even more powerful than the old Chanyu before. The Huns will surely prosper in the future!
"Is the general really drunk?"
Just when Ying Zheng was thinking about how to speak, Xiao Zhengtai walked in and asked with a playful look on his face.
"No, the young master doesn't know. This boy is good at everything, but he will go crazy after drinking too much. I hope you can forgive me!"
Harry smiled and smoothed things over.
"Then I have to help him sober up, lest he say something he shouldn't and anger my father. Then the gain will outweigh the loss!"
Little Shota walked towards Gus with her calves.
"Sober up? How to wake up...?"
"Papa..."
Harry wanted to ask with a smile, but in the next second he already knew what the boy meant by sobering up.
I saw Little Shota standing on tiptoe, and with lightning speed, she went up and slapped Gus twice, causing Gus, a tall and strong man, to spin around in circles.
The ministers who were slapped with these few slaps were relieved!
This bullshit general just drank some wine and started talking nonsense, saying how powerful the Huns were and how one could fight ten. Obviously, he meant that the two countries were at war and they had a sure chance of victory!
Seeing this scene, even Ying Zheng, who had been sitting behind the Long Case, felt much better!
"You...you actually hit me?"
Gus was stunned for a while by Shota. After he reacted, he covered his cheeks that had begun to swell and scolded him angrily.
"How can I call you a beating? I am helping you...!"
Faced with the questioning, Xiao Zhengtai remained calm and composed, pretending to be very innocent, "You were drunk just now and said a lot of the following offensive words. Even your companions said that you were drunk, so you might say it again.
If you say anything inappropriate, you will lose your head, so I will help you sober up!"
"you……"
"Ah! You weren't just pretending to be drunk, were you? Then you and your companions are deceiving the emperor. In Daqin, deceiving the emperor will lose your head!"
Gus pointed at the young lady angrily, trying to figure out something.
The young lady suddenly covered her mouth, pretended to be shocked, and threatened Gus.
"This this……?"
Gus can't be beaten to death with just one sentence.
If they admit that they deliberately threatened the King of Qin through Jiu Jin, they will definitely anger the King of Qin, and their heads will be lost now.
But if you don't admit it, the slaps this guy just slapped you will be in vain!
He was puzzled. He was obviously just a baby, but why did his hands feel stronger than his?
