Chapter 162: To kneel or not to kneel

Zhou Yang's words directly made Zhao Huan dumbfounded.

He naturally knew what it meant to go to the capital, whether it was to marry a woman over there or send a child there, in addition to improving relations with the imperial court, it also meant that these people would become hostages.

If there is any change in the feudal state that sent the hostages, then the imperial court will not hesitate to directly deal with these hostages.

Therefore, it can be understood that Concubine Xian has been in the capital for so many years, but she actually exists as a hostage.

Although she is a concubine, she is actually not treated as well as others think.

"Why don't you speak?"

"If you are willing to go to the capital, then I will take out 500,000 silver now."

Zhou Yang looked at Zhao Huan coldly.

At this moment, Zhao Huan was completely wilted, and he couldn't say a word.

Although the Qin State is several grades worse than the capital, he is not willing to give up the position of the prince of the Qin State and go to the prosperous place of the capital.

After all, being a hostage to others is not so pleasant, and if you are not careful, you may even lose your life.

"I... I ......"

Summoned in front of so many people, I didn't want to let my momentum weaken, and I stiffened my neck and shouted twice, and then there was no sound.

He is not so stupid, he got himself to the capital, although 500,000 is not a small amount, but if he can ascend to the position of King Qin, it is not a big problem.

Put a good Qin throne and go to the capital, unless you say that your brain is funny.

"I can't speak!"

Zhou Yang's eyes showed a look of disdain.

At the same time, he also turned to look at the other people present, all with the same expressions.

When all the people came into contact with Zhou Yang's gaze, they all subconsciously wanted to avoid the gaze, and felt a trace of cold chill, as if they were falling in an ice cellar on a hot summer day.

"You all thought that my mother was going to enjoy happiness when she married into the capital, but you never thought about how she went to the capital alone and without the company of her relatives, how she spent so many years in the capital."

"Over the years, she has been helpless in the capital, and in the palace in the deep palace compound, no one can be trusted."

"And everywhere is full of crises, and you can lose your life at any time."

"I think she had the opportunity to refuse to marry into the capital back then, but for the sake of the Qin State and for the sake of you people, she resolutely gave up her status as a princess and went to the capital to be a concubine who seemed to be beautiful but painful."

"Now you people are so ungrateful, we have suffered in the capital for so many years, it is really in vain!"

Zhou Yang said with a long sigh.

When I was a child, I didn't understand why my mother had a sad face every day.

Now he understands!

Leaving her hometown alone to be a concubine in the capital, who seems to be beautiful but is actually painful, and it is also for the people of her homeland.

But these people may not understand her, maybe the mother concubine was questioned when she got married, so she was so negative in the capital.

Now that the mother concubine is gone, these guys still have to come to ask for the 500,000 taels of silver when the mother concubine went to the capital.

The anger on Zhou Yang's body could not be concealed, and his eyes scanned the courtiers and people present with cold eyes.

If these people who do not know the truth can be forgiven, then these courtiers are unforgivable.

Don't they know what it means for their mother to go to the capital?

In their opinion, they are not ignorant, nor are they pure or stupid, but they are simply bad.

The expressions on the faces of several old ministers who were present at the time were also very ugly, and the situation back then could not be clearer to them.

Thinking about it now, they all blushed.

Because there were still many hidden secrets in the events of the year, Zhou Yang actually didn't know it, but these old guys were like mirrors in their hearts.

"Your Highness the Seventh, thank you here!"

Some old courtiers, led by the prime minister and Zhongshu Ling, fell to their knees with a hula la.

Others can talk nonsense with their eyes open, but they can't.

As soon as these two old ministers knelt like this, the ministers under them naturally did not dare to stand.

As more and more people knelt down, in the end, even the eldest prince Zhao Qi knelt on the ground with a conscious lift of his robe.

Now you have to kneel on the ground whether you want to or not, otherwise you will be against these people.

Seeing that the people around him knelt down one by one, Zhao Huan, who was very arrogant just now, was stunned all of a sudden.

Today, he obviously made a plan and was going to ask Zhou Yang for silver, but now the silver did not come down, but he still had to kneel down to him.

Although it was his aunt who knelt this time, he didn't have any impression of that aunt at all.

And today's spearhead is also pointed at that aunt, if you really kneel down like this, isn't this just slapping yourself in the face in front of everyone?

Zhao Huan gritted his teeth and stood there!

Behind him there are a few die-hard friends, who are also standing hard.

These people, in this scene, seem unusually abrupt.

Zhou Yang looked coldly at the people led by Zhao Huan.

It seems that these people want to give themselves a disadvantage today, so they will move out of the things they just said.

If they just say something else, even if they say that they are incompetent, they can still bear the embarrassing things of being bullied in the capital.

After all, he is a newcomer, and he will have to develop slowly in this Qin country in the future, and he will swallow that breath for the time being.

But these guys actually directly targeted their mother's concubine, and they wouldn't swallow this breath anyway.

Zhou Yang's gaze fell on Zhao Huan's and the others, making them feel very uncomfortable.

Even the summoner didn't dare to look at each other with Zhou Yang, and his eyes couldn't help but dodge, trying to find a way to alleviate the current embarrassing situation.

At that moment, there was another noise behind them.

It was the sound of the frame moving, and some of the guards followed.

Hearing this movement, Zhao Huan knew that it was his grandfather, King Qin, who was here.

In an instant, he seemed to have found a savior, and his face showed a happy color, as long as his grandfather came, then the next thing would be easy to say.

You can fight back against Zhou Yang in front of you.
