Through Time Chapter 217

Three days later.

Early in the morning, a fast horse entered the palace of Xianyang.

A letter was delivered to Qin Shi Huang, the

“Hmm? An epistle from Long’er?”

Qin Shi Huang looked at the epistle in his hand and was a little surprised, the previous epistles that Zhao Lang had sent him were all sent by Uncle Fu.

Zhao Gao thought about it slightly and smiled, saying

“Your Majesty, this came from the way you left the caravan in Yunzhong County, and I am afraid that Gongzi Long, has already suspected the servants in the Zhuang.”

After reading the epistle, Qin Shi Huang could not help but reveal a smile that

“It really makes me must be cautious…”

Who would have thought that Zhao Lang had actually seen the army’s stirrups in advance himself and then became suspicious.

“Well, is there any news coming from the Black Ice Guard?”

Zhao Gao returned, at once

“The Black Ice Guard is pleased to report that Gongzi Lang has broken a medium Xiongnu tribe, capturing many cattle and sheep herders and distributing them to a few thousand generals under his command, and the army is firmly established.”

“There is also the county magistrate Shusun Tong running for him, so he has a good relationship with the magistrates everywhere.”

“Farmers and merchants from the Zhuang are also starting to move into Yunzhong.”

Zhao Gao explained the information one by one, and at the end, with a few moments of emotion to

“Your Majesty, in this way, in less than two years, I am afraid that the county of Yunzhong will be under the control of Gongzi Lang.”

When Qin Shi Huang heard these words, his face showed a hint of joy.

“Hahahaha, to be able to conquer a territory in two years is really a good tactic.”

When Zhao Gao heard this, his face became a little odd, it was the first time he had seen that he was so happy to be pried out of a corner.

Yet, he could not help but remind to

“Your Majesty, you must not forget that Gongzi Lang’s main power is in Liaodong County.”

“Black Ice Guard Xiao Liu reports that nowadays, there is also a tribe of Gong Zi Lang in the land of the Hu people.”

Qin Shi Huang was stunned for a moment, but in the next instant, the smile on his face grew broader and broader.

“This boy, very much to my liking! ”

“But his guts are still too small.”

Hearing this, Zhao Gao instead froze, puzzled, and said

“Why did Your Majesty say that?”

“At first, as a mere commoner, Gongzi Lang dared to secretly plan a rebellion, and now he has even swallowed the elephant as a snake, intending to take the two counties.”

“How dare you!”

Zhao Gao could still always remember the first time he saw Zhao Lang being scared and unable to sit still.

He had never seen anyone with more guts than Zhao Lang!

Qin Shi Huang shook his head at this time, however

“Although Long’s son dares to plot, he always fears one person.”

“Who?”

Zhao Gao asked subconsciously.

“That is the First Emperor of this Great Qin!”

Qin Shi Huang said indifferently.

Zhao Gao instantly gulped and his face turned slightly white, as he somewhat guessed what his majesty was going to say.

Sure enough, Qin Shi Huang went on to say that

“The heart of an emperor is supposed to be fearless! It should have the will to swept away everything! Otherwise, when you encounter something seemingly irresistible in the future, will you not dare to resist?”

“How can this be done?”

“If Long’er wants to achieve the empire, he must attack while the First Emperor is on the throne!”

“Even if he fails! He must do so too.”

Zhao Gao’s legs were trembling a little at this point, and he knelt down directly on the ground, advising

“Your Majesty, this matter must not be allowed!”

Just as Qin Shi Huang was thinking of how to get his son, to launch an attack on himself.

Deep in the grassland, the Xiongnu royal court.

By now there was a great deal of rejoicing.

Countless herding warriors, all mounted on their beloved war horses, took out their bows and arrows.

Ready to show themselves.

Today is the last hunt before winter.

Countless warriors of the Huns will be hunting at this time of year to build up their food for the long winter.

It is also a time to boast of one’s bravery.

The head monk, served by his own servants, dresses himself in his gear.

At this moment, the Xiongnu, his wife, said with a little sorrow on her face that

“Shan Yu, I have heard that since his return, Boldon has been running around and has already brought in many tribes.”

“You should not let him take part in the hunt this time, I am afraid…”

At this point, Shan Yu, the headman, grunted and said that

“What are you afraid of?”

“All the Hun nobles are here, would he dare to make a move against me?”

The Xiongnu still spoke with some concern that

“Shan Yu, of course he wouldn’t dare to make a move on you.”

“But I am your later Xiongnu, and I am not close to Boldon.”

“And our children are still young, and it is he who I fear will do harm to you and my son’s words.”

It was then that Headman Shan Yu frowned slightly and

“Boldon has been away since he was a boy, and the bond with his brother is a little thinner.”

“No matter, our son is also an eagle in the sky, only his wings have not yet grown.”

“With me watching, it’s just as well to let Boldon, the wolf cub, watch the outside for him first, otherwise the Hu and also the Yue think that the glory of the Xiongnu has fallen.”

Hearing this, the Xiongnu nodded with a little relief.

The two of them dressed and came outside when they heard a roar of cheers.

With the help of a few servants, the head monk, gasping for breath, had finally mounted his horse.

The Left Sage King was on his left, the Right Sage King on his right, and behind him was a crowd of other Hun nobles walking in the direction of the hunting grounds.

When they arrived at the hunting ground, they saw a teenage boy, riding a pony and teasing some sheep.

That was his young son.

Although they were sheep, the ram was actually extremely aggressive.

One had long since been aroused to ferocity and charged towards the pony.

The youngster on the horse did not panic at all and dodged with great dexterity.

Then they killed him.

It didn’t take long for these fierce rams to fall to the ground.

The field erupted in cheers.

The young man also saw the headman monk at this time, and shouted gleefully at the other side that

“Father, my son is brave!”

Headman Shan Yu exclaimed.

“Brave and fierce!”

At once, the cheers around them grew louder and louder.

No one noticed that in the crowd, a little to the side, Boldon was watching the two men with cold eyes.

He then gave a look to his men, who quickly left.

Seeing this scene, the head of the army smiled and said in a loud voice.

“Back then, when we came here, we were only half as many as we were old and weak.”

“And after so many winters, the gods of heaven have blessed us! Our tribe has grown again!”

Cheers rang out around them once again.

“But! Now we have to keep on breeding! When our wolf cubs are all grown up, when the Qin are weakened!”

“That will be our chance!”

“My son, come here!”

Headman Shan Yu beckoned to the teenager in the field at this point, it was time for the Huns to know who their next king would be.

The teenager was about to go over towards Headman.

But just then, out of nowhere, some hungry wolves came out.

Their eyes glowed green and they rushed towards the teenager!

Hungry wolves are no match for a ram!

The young man’s face went white!

The others were too late to rescue him.

And just then, a long-ready Boldon rushed out from the side.

And then with the utmost crispness, he killed the hungry wolf!

After killing it, Boldon held up the bloodied weapon in his hand and roared at the headman.

“Father! My son’s sword is sharp!”
