Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 124 New Deal

"Come to Handan and learn how to walk, raise your feet high, wave your hands lightly, until you learn 99, you still can't walk in Handan!" Gan Luo sang a nursery rhyme, jumping up and down, looking at Zhao Gao who wanted to stop him, and put his hand The little wooden stick in the house shook intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhao Gao originally wanted to stop Gan Luo, but when he thought of the board he suffered because of him, he was afraid for a while. If he didn't stop, King Qin was discussing important matters with Wei Liao and the others. If Gan Luo broke in, King Qin would get angry and beat him. Stunning the board is a small matter, but beheading him is a major matter.After weighing it, Zhao Gao stepped in front of Gan Luo and said, "Master Gan, please stay."

Gan Luo blinked and said, "Zhao Gao, get out of the way, I'm going to see the king."

"Your Majesty Gan doesn't know something. Wang Shang is discussing important matters with Mr. Liaozi. No one is allowed to enter without the king's summons." Zhao Gao moved Qin Wang out of Ganluo.

If it was someone else, this trick would definitely be useful, but for Gan Luo, it would have no effect at all. Gan Luo rolled his eyes, and made a move at Zhao Gao with his right hand, and said mysteriously: "Master Zhao, do you know why I want to see the king at this time?" superior?"

How did Zhao Gao know this question, and asked, "If Mr. Gan has something important to see the king, please wait a moment and let me report it to you."

Zhao Gao couldn't be fooled, Gan Luo blinked his eyes and had another idea, said: "Master Zhao, the Queen Mother has a word to bring to you, put your ears closer, come closer, and I'll tell you."

Gan Luo is very much loved by the queen mother, and it is not impossible to bring a message to Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao put his ear closer in fear, and suddenly his right ear hurts, and it has fallen into Gan Luo's little hands. Twist, Zhao Gao opened his mouth and was about to scream, but it was a pity that Gan Luo covered it with his left hand.Gan Luo whispered in Zhao Gao's ear, let go of Zhao Gao, and strode into the house, only Zhao Gao was left in a daze outside.

Zhao Gao can be regarded as a smart person, but he always tied his hands and feet when he met Gan Luo, and he inevitably suffered a little loss.With Zhao Gao's heart, although he would not take revenge on Gan Luo immediately, he would also hold grudges in his heart, but he had no idea of ​​revenge on Gan Luo at all, because he thought Gan Luo was really cute, and teasing Gan Luo was like a game. have fun.

In the room were King Qin, Wei Liao, Li Si, and Wang Ao, all important ministers, who were discussing important matters. As soon as Gan Luo came in, he stopped immediately and looked at Gan Luo.The King of Qin asked, "Gan Luo, what are you doing here if you don't learn nursery rhymes from the Queen Mother?" It is a serious crime to break in without being summoned by the King of Qin.

Gan Luo hopped to King Qin's side and said, "Your Majesty, the queen mother said that I have almost learned today's nursery rhymes, so I don't need to learn any more."

Since returning to Xianyang, the Empress Dowager's health has become worse and worse.A court lady inadvertently told her about Gan Luo's mission to Zhao Guo when he was young, and took back the five cities in Hejian without a single soldier. Gan Luo went to the Queen Mother.

How could you know that the Queen Mother fell in love with Gan Luo very much when she saw Gan Luo, and kept Gan Luo by her side all day to tell jokes and stories. The Queen Mother who didn't always have a smile for ten days now smiled from ear to ear every day.King Qin is a dutiful son, and he ordered Gan Luo to accompany the queen mother, who treated Gan Luo like her own son.

"Then you go find a place to play by yourself." King Qin ordered.

Although Ganluo is small, he is smarter than others. It is reasonable for him to leave immediately. He has no intention of leaving. He said: "Your Majesty, there is no place for fun. I want to hear what you say about Mr. Zhou." Politics, my lord, is it okay?"

The King of Qin looked at Gan Luo in amazement, and asked, "Mr. Zhou wrote a letter, but very few people knew about it, and the widow didn't tell you. How did you know?"

Gan Luo turned his head slightly, and said: "It's not easy. Mr. Liaozi and the others are all here, so they must be discussing important issues. The biggest issue right now is nothing more than the affairs of the Han land. The affairs of the Han land are governed by Mr. Zhou." , Counting the time, Mr. Zhou's memorial should be here, so you are naturally discussing Mr. Zhou's actions."

"You little devil!" King Qin pointed at Gan Luo's nose and said with a smile, "I didn't realize that you little devil has such a delicate mind."

Gan Luo looked up at King Qin and said, "Your Majesty, you don't tell him because you think he is too young. Maybe he can give you some advice."

"All right, all right, let's play first, I have something to ask for your advice." King Qin patted Gan Luo's cheek lightly, and said, "Zhao Gao, bring some food for the little devil. Bring more, don't starve to death A witty little genius." Speaking of the latter, he was already joking.

Zhao Gao responded and went to get food.Gan Luo said: "Your Majesty, I'll sing nursery rhymes then." Without waiting for King Qin to speak, he jumped aside and hummed nursery rhymes softly.

King Qin said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Zhou mentioned the establishment of prefectures and counties in Han. I think it is feasible, so there is no need to discuss this. Mr. Zhou also said that a road will be built to connect Hangu Pass in the west and pass through Xinzheng. It is also possible to connect Zhao to the east. If you want to take over the world, you must first take Han. Now that Han is dead, the next one should be Zhao. Zhao Guo, the country of the legacy of King Wuling, is still strong despite the defeat of Changping. Qiang, if we want to destroy Zhao, our Daqin must do its best to succeed. Millions of troops are sweeping eastward, and the logistics are too heavy. There is no usable road to meet the needs of the army. This is a far-sighted move."

"Master Zhou plans things very deeply and far, I admire you." Li Si couldn't help admiring.

His words were exactly what Wei Liao and the others wanted to say, and they nodded in praise.

The King of Qin changed the subject and said, "However, the road construction method mentioned by Mr. Zhou is too inconceivable. Instead of sending corvees, it is necessary to collect money from the people and use the power of the people to build this road. I think it is inappropriate."

Li Si followed the words of the King of Qin and said, "Lord Zhou is using Sibaozhai as an example to propose this strategy. If Sibaozhai is profitable, businessmen are naturally willing to pay, but how can there be money for road construction?" It’s profitable, businessmen won’t spend money to build this road.”

He wasn't flattering, Zhou Chong's suggestion was too bold and novel, it was really difficult for them to accept it, even King Qin, who is known for appreciating new things, was a little uncertain, which shows the difficulty.

Wei Liao thought for a while, and said: "If Mr. Zhou's proposal can be used, it will be a good thing to have a high-quality road available without Daqin paying a penny or effort. However, it may be difficult to realize. "

Even if Wei Liao didn't support it, the King of Qin didn't have any worries, and said: "Then this proposal is not necessary, it's better to ask the people to build it."

As soon as his words fell, Gan Luo, who was singing nursery rhymes, jumped over and said, "Your Majesty, no, you are wrong."

Apart from Gan Luo, there is no other person who dares to accuse the King of Qin of his fault face to face, and is so direct.Even if Zhou Chong was appreciated by the King of Qin and could accept his suggestion, it was because Zhou Chong's words were very skillful.

"Oh, what's wrong?" King Qin asked curiously.

Gan Luo tilted his head and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou's proposal is beneficial but harmless. If Your Majesty misses this proposal, it will definitely add an infinite burden to the people."

King Qin stood up, stared at Gan Luo, and said eagerly: "How do you say this? Say it quickly and let the widow listen."
