The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 375: The long-awaited reunion of the brothers (last month's monthly ticket plus update, please vote~)

Honglian smiled and watched Han Fei leave.

Until he could no longer see Han Fei, he sat down weakly on the chair, looking into the distance at the sky, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness about the future.

Leaving home and going to a strange country, which is far stronger than Korea, and my father and brother will no longer be able to protect me.

I really don’t know what the future will be like.

When Han Fei came back to report to Han Wangan, Han Wangan sighed lightly, waved his hand and asked him to leave.

After Han Fei left the hall, he looked up at the sky.

Now that things have come to this, we should find a way to make Honglian live more comfortably in King Qin’s harem.

For a married woman, dowry is the most important thing. If she is not favored, the dowry is the capital for her to make a living.

The King of Qin gave the Suihou Pearl to the Han State, but the Han State did not give a gift of equal value in return, which was a great disrespect.

You can't give too many cities, but you can't give too few treasures, gold, silver, silk and brocade.

It would be better to give it to my sister than to leave it to these insects to squander.

Han Fei made up his mind, took a jar of good wine, and went to the residence where Li Si was in the evening.

It’s best to talk about things at night.

When Li Si heard that Han Fei was coming to visit, he hurried out to greet him warmly.

After the two of them greeted each other, Han Fei laughed and said, "Junior brother, it's been a long time since we last met. I brought a jar of good wine with me. I won't leave until I'm drunk today."

Li Si smiled and said, "Brother, please come in. It's been a long time since we last met. I miss you so much."

The two of them entered the courtyard and sat down. Li Si smiled and sighed, "Senior Brother finally returned to Korea."

Han Fei sighed and shook his head: "My grandfather passed away. As a prince, I must return to my country to observe mourning."

Li Si bowed his hands and apologized: "I'm sorry, Senior Brother, I was inconsiderate."

Han Fei smiled and shook his head: "The dead are gone."

He exclaimed: "Junior brother is really like a fish in water in Qin State now. I heard that he has already become the confidant of the King of Qin. He serves the King of Qin every day, listens to the government affairs, and advises on the affairs. His future is limitless!"

Li Si smiled modestly: "Brother, you are too kind. Thanks to the teacher's recommendation, I have this opportunity. I am where I am today because of the king's appreciation."

"Junior brother, you are too modest. With your ability, you can make a career wherever you go."

Li Si was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Senior brother's talent is ten times better than mine, but if he were in South Korea, he would be like a dragon trapped in shallow water, and it would be difficult for him to achieve anything."

"Brother, if you are interested in joining Qin, you can ask the teacher for a letter. I am also willing to recommend you. With your talents, Qin is the place where you can truly display them."

Han Fei laughed and said, "I am a prince of Han. Can the King of Qin trust me?"

Li Si smiled slightly and said proudly: "My king has the whole world in his heart, encompassing the four seas. How come? Isn't Han State within the Nine Provinces and the Four Seas?"

Han Fei really couldn't laugh in his heart. A powerful country had a powerful king. This was the worst news for its enemy country.

Especially since his enemy country is a stumbling block right in front of him.

Han Fei raised his head and laughed: "The King of Qin's demeanor is so impressive that it makes people yearn for him just by hearing about it."

"It's a pity that my book is not yet finished. I'll talk about it later."

"Let me talk about another matter first, my junior brother's trip to Korea."

Han Fei patted his head and said, "Look at me. I was so happy to see my junior brother that I didn't even open the wine."

Han Fei was about to open the wine.

Li Si stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, Senior Brother. I have already given up drinking."

Han Fei was surprised and asked, "Oh? When did this happen?"

"The only thing in the world that should not be wasted is wine. Junior brother, how can you give up drinking? If I can't drink, I really don't know what the taste of life is." Li Si smiled and said, "Senior brother loves wine, junior brother naturally knows that senior brother can't live without wine every day."

Li Si smiled and sighed, "My junior brother has entered Qin and has been greatly loved by the king. He has been able to serve the king and listen to his teachings every day. He has learned a lot from seeing the wise and wanting to emulate them."

"The king once said that alcohol is a poison that penetrates the intestines and is also a promiscuous thing. Being drunk is the easiest way to do promiscuous things. As a monarch, you have unlimited power. If you are promiscuous, you will harm the country and the people."

"A monarch must always stay sober. If he does something he will regret after getting drunk, it will be too late to regret."

"Your Majesty also said that even when people are sober, they can make mistakes, let alone when they are drunk."

"We are high up in the court, holding high positions and great power. If we are a little bit impatient or confused, it will be a disaster for the people. We must be careful."

"Your Majesty has not forced all of your subjects to stop drinking, as long as they do not drink while doing things."

"But Junior Brother thinks that in order to nip it in the bud, we should just give it up completely."

Han Fei praised him: "As a ruler, you can be so self-disciplined and restrained. You are truly a wise ruler."

Li Si smiled and said, "No, my king is not only a wise ruler, but also a sage ruler."

Han Fei smiled and nodded.

But he opened the wine anyway.

"Junior brother, I haven't seen you for many years, and I don't have anything important to do right now. Can you break your vow for me?"

"Drink less today?"

Li Si looked embarrassed.

Han Fei shook his head, poured himself a glass and drank it all.

"Forget it, Senior Brother won't make it difficult for you. Breaking the precepts is not good. You drink tea and I'll drink wine."

Li Si smiled and shook his head: "If you want to drink, drink. If you don't want to drink, don't drink. This is true self-control."

"I haven't seen you for several years. How can I ruin your fun?"

"Brother, please fill up my cup as well."

Han Fei laughed and said, "Thank you very much, Junior Brother!"

Li Si asked someone to bring some more food, and the two of them chatted, and before they knew it, they were both a little tipsy.

Han Fei suddenly sighed and said, "Junior brother, I have something to ask you, I wonder if you can help me."

Li Si smiled and said, "It can be done easily. Junior brother will definitely try his best. Senior brother, please tell me first."

Han Fei's face was filled with bitterness, and he sighed, "Junior brother, you should know that Han is a small country with few people, and it cannot be compared with the great Qin. The Qin is rich and prosperous, while Han is a country with poor people and a poor king."

"The King of Qin offered a hundred carts of precious jewels and the Suihou Pearl as a betrothal gift. This is really difficult for Han."

Li Si asked knowingly: "Oh? What's the problem? This is because my king has taken a fancy to Korea and also values ​​your princess. Isn't this a good thing?"

Han Fei smiled bitterly and said, "That's a good thing, but Han's ability is really limited. How should we return the dowry?"

"Even if it's the lowest, double it."

"Two hundred carts of treasures, even if we take all the treasures from the Korean treasury, we can still barely get the money together."

"But this Suihou Pearl is a priceless treasure. How can a small country like Han have such a treasure?"

"And it's double, which is really difficult for South Korea."

Li Si put down his wine glass, put away his smile, and asked, "What does your country mean?"
