Chapter 84: Hostages of the Eight Nations, Preparing for War
Hearing this, the faces of the princes and princesses of the Eight Kingdoms suddenly changed.
However, they soon calmed down, and after glancing at each other, they immediately spoke, "With the majesty of His Majesty King Qin, how could he do such a thing!"
"And I still have an insurance to stay in the Qin State, isn't it? In case the Qin State fails, then there is still a possibility for us to continue talking. ”
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials in the hall immediately frowned.
The people who were still shouting and shouting to kill were also quiet.
Even though Qin Fusu had declared war with the Eight Kingdoms, they were still quite worried in their hearts.
If the princes and princesses of the Eight Kingdoms were to be hostages here, it didn't seem to be a bad thing, or even ......
"Interesting!"
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and Qin Fusu also glanced at a few people in surprise.
It is undeniable that these people are not people who are waiting for death, and they clearly want to stay for a purpose, but the words they say are for the consideration of the Qin State.
"I want to see what your purpose is!"
Muttering in his heart, Qin Fusu opened his mouth and said, "In this case, then you can stay!"
After speaking, Qin Fusu waved his hand and motioned for Zhang Han to send the Eight Kingdoms envoys away.
Under such circumstances, the envoys of the eight kingdoms did not insist on anything, and left Xianyang Palace one by one with a pale face.
At this point, the entire Xianyang Palace fell silent.
When Qin Fusu sat down, the eyes of the ministers were also focused on the princes and princesses of the eight kingdoms, and their brows were tightly locked, as if they were thinking about something.
"Your Majesty!"
At this time, Zhuge Liang stepped forward in the ranks of civil officials, bowed down and said, "Since the princes and princesses of the Eight Kingdoms want to stay, they also need a place to settle!"
"Hmm!"
Nodding, Qin Fusu looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "What advice does Kong Ming have?"
Hearing this, Zhuge Liang smiled indifferently and said, "It's better to be in the palace!"
"After all, the prince and princess of the Eight Kingdoms are also noble people, and it is better to be in the palace than to let it be dangerous to live in Xianyang City. ”
"After all, the palace is protected by the Praetorian Guard, and there will definitely be no thieves who dare to attack and assassinate. ”
Placed in the royal palace!
What is this Zhuge Liang's thoughts!
With a raised brow, Qin Fusu's eyes showed a trace of astonishment and surprise.
Although he promised to let the princes and princesses of the Eight Kingdoms stay, he had no intention of letting this group stay in the palace.
"Your Majesty!"
Without waiting for Qin Fusu to speak, Zhang Liang also stepped forward and agreed: "The minister agrees with Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's proposal!"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the palace reacted, and they saluted one after another: "The ministers agree with Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's words!"
The ministers agreed with Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's words. ”
“......”
Obviously, with the words of Zhuge Liang and Zhang Liang, although they didn't understand what was going on, they didn't dare to look for trouble.
After all, everyone knows very well that Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang are very loyal to Qin Fusu, and it is impossible to make a foolish betrayal.
"Good!"
Nodding, Qin Fusu endured the doubts in his heart, and then spoke: "In this way, then arrange all the eight kingdoms in the palace!"
"Zhang Han, when the princes and princesses of the Eight Kingdoms go to live in the courtyard of Nangong, remember to send the Praetorian Guards to protect them, and don't let the thieves hurt them!"
"Yes!"
With a promise, Zhang Han clasped his fists at Qin Fusu, and then looked at the prince and princess of the eight kingdoms and said, "Everyone, please follow me!"
With that, he walked towards the outside of the court.
Seeing this, the princes and princesses of the Eight Kingdoms also came back to their senses, and after glancing at each other, they saluted Qin Fusu and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty King Qin!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty King Qin!"
“......”
After speaking, they didn't linger either, turned around and followed Zhang Han and left Xianyang Palace.
After he left, Qin Fusu looked at Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang and said, "Why do you let them live in the palace?"
Hearing this, Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang glanced at each other, and did not answer immediately, but looked at the officials around them.
Seeing this, Qin Fusu frowned, but he didn't suspect anything, waved his hand and said, "Retreat!"
"Prime Minister Zhang, Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, Guan Neihou and General Meng Tian stay!"
"Yes!"
agreed, and the hundred officials also knew that Qin Fusu and the others were going to discuss things, so they didn't hesitate immediately, bowed down and saluted: "The ministers are leaving!"
"Wait for the resignation!"
“......”
In the blink of an eye, the ministers left Xianyang Palace.
After he left, Qin Fusu then spoke: "Ovary, Kong Ming, can you talk now?"
"Yes!"
With a promise, Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang glanced at each other, and Zhuge Liang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the advantages of leaving them in the palace outweigh the disadvantages." ”
"With the strength of the eight of them, it is impossible to do anything to endanger my Qin State under the supervision of the Shadow Secret Guard, the Net, and the Black Ice Platform. ”
"If they make any moves, the means of the Shadow Guard, the Net, and the Black Ice Platform can completely stop them in advance, and even figure out the real purpose of their move. ”
After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Zhang Liang on the side also stepped up, bowed and saluted: "And leaving them will be of greater benefit to my Great Qin, if you can understand the current situation and situation of the Eight Kingdoms through them!"
"For example, the Great War of the Hundred Kingdoms, since it was announced by the Great Yin Dynasty, then my Qin State cannot be an exception, just take this opportunity to figure out what the situation is. ”
Also, the minister observed the men for a while, and they said that when they stayed, the representatives of the mission looked extremely ugly, but they did not dare to stop them, which showed that this was their own request. ”
"Being able to let them give up the preferential treatment of the prince and princess after returning to the country but stay as a dangerous hostage, it can be seen that their situation in their own country is not good, this is an opportunity for us!"
I see!
There was a hint of abruptness in his eyes, and Qin Fusu suddenly realized.
Immediately afterwards, the corners of his mouth also rose slightly, "In this way, the stay of those eight people is indeed more beneficial than disadvantageous for my Qin State. ”
"Ovary, Kong Ming, you guys did a great job, I didn't think about it so much before. ”
"Your Majesty is wonderful!"
With a fist salute, Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and they did not mean to take credit.
In this regard, Qin Fusu was very satisfied, and looked at Bai Qi and Meng Tian on the side and said: "Bai Qi, I have declared war on the Eight Great Kings, if nothing else, the war will break out soon!"
"But now that the domestic imperial examination, road construction and other things are entangled in things, it is not good for me to go to defend the border again, and from now on, you will lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to Tianyu Pass!"
"After a while, I will once again send a message to the Ministry of War to increase the intensity of recruitment, and strive to gather a large army to rush to Tianyu Pass to help in a short time. ”
