Through Time Chapter 272

At this time, inside the palace.

Today is the last great debate of the Confucians.

There will be many great Confucian scholars there, and he will have to be there earlier than these great scholars if he wants to draw them in.

For this was also an aspect of showing his courtesy.

Soon he led the way out of his palace.

Inside the palace he also met Gao, who had also risen early, and who had been pulling in the disciples of the Fa family these days.

The two didn’t talk much, the rivalry had been laid out in the open and there was no point in talking more.

Soon, the two teams left the palace in unison.

Hu Hai was also awakened by the commotion outside and got up with a few moments of dissatisfaction, looking at the two men leaving outside, and could not help but grimace.

“Humph, arguing back and forth, it’s not too annoying.”

Then it was time to start the training that Zhao Lang had taught him, and he didn’t dare to slacken off and go back without meeting the standard by then.

Zhao Lang wouldn’t let him off the hook.

When it was fully light, and his training was just about finished, he noticed a squire hurrying past and couldn’t help but ask

“What is the matter in such a hurry?”

Hu Hai asked.

The squire froze for a moment and returned that

“Prince Hu Hai, there is a Grand Prince of the Goguryeo Mission outside the palace, asking to see Prince Fusu.”

“The Grand Prince of Goguryeo?”

Hu Hai’s eyes lit up faintly.

He was all a bit bored lately, and there wasn’t much fun in the palace in the first place.

He had wanted to go to Zhao Lang, but for some reason, his father did not allow them to leave Xianyang privately.

And he didn’t dare to do anything wrong like he did before. If Zhao Lang found out, he would be considered clean if he didn’t beat the sh*t out of him.

These were Zhao Lang’s exact words.

But this Grand Prince of Goguryeo seems like a good opportunity to play the bleep!

After all, Zhao Lang didn’t say he wasn’t allowed to bully anyone outside!

Thinking of this, Hu Hai suddenly said aloud that

“Fusu is already out, so you can let him meet me, just the same.”

The attendant hesitated for a moment and

“But…”

Hu Hai’s eyes glared, and he said angrily that

“Am I not a prince anymore?”

The attendant had heard of Hu Hai’s unreasonableness and could only bow his head in agreement.

“Yes.”

Then he hurried to the side door of the palace.

Addressing the Grand Prince, who was waiting outside, he said

“Duke Fusu is not in the palace, but Duke Hu Hai has an invitation.”

The Grand Prince froze for a moment and spoke to

“It is Duke Fusu whom the young king requests to see, how…”

Suddenly the Grand Prince’s heart fluttered; Duke Fusu was not there, and according to Mr. Su’s plan, he was left to wait.

Might as well take this time to make the acquaintance of one more prince!

If he pleaded for mercy at the wrong time, he could have an extra helping hand.

The Grand Prince said at once, without moving a muscle.

“It is well, and please lead the way.”

Then he took a present and followed the attendant all the way to the palace of Hu Hai.

“Son of the Lord of Goguryeo, meet the Emperor.”

As Mr. Su had instructed, the Grand Prince put himself in a very low posture.

As soon as they met, they made a great salute and then offered their gifts.

Hu Hai, who had been somewhat bored, immediately revealed a smile when he saw this scene.

How long has it been?

How long had it been since anyone had treated him so politely?

Hu Hai was also trained in professional etiquette and helped the other man to his feet with the utmost propriety.

“I am equal to the royal family, the Grand Prince need not be so polite.”

Hearing these words, the Grand Prince was almost moved to tears.

Compared to yesterday, this was truly royalty!

The Grand Prince no longer hesitated at this point, and with a few moments of true intent, cried out that

“Duke Hu Hai, you are indeed merciful, if only my third brother had met you at that time, how good it would have been.”

“Your third brother?”

Hu Hai could not help but ask.

“Exactly, my poor third brother…”

The Grand Prince, with teary eyes, told the story, and then said that

“I dare not ask the Great Qin to punish that Qin army, it’s just that we really can’t afford to pay that much compensation.”

Hearing these words, even though Hu Hai’s cheek had been practiced to be much thicker following Zhao Lang.

He could not help but redden a few points.

To kill someone else’s prince and ask them to pay so much compensation was really a bit too much.

Seeing this scene, the Grand Prince was secretly happy.

This time, it was finally the same as what Mr. Su had said, these princes were not as black-hearted as tyrants and tyrannical ministers!

So with increased vigour, he leaned down again and said.

“If your Majesty can speak well of this small and feeble country of mine, in the future, if I succeed the throne, I will serve you with the same courtesy as I served my father!”

With these words, he lowered himself to the dust!

Even Hu Hai, who was a keen bleeper, could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.

“I can only speak more beautifully for you when the time comes for such military matters, but you can tell me the name of that Qin army.”

Hu Hai touched the gift presented by the other party, then lifted the Grand Prince up and said that

“I can punish something on your behalf; the dignity of the royal family is not to be insulted by ordinary people!”

The Grand Prince was faintly pleased, and with a little indignation to

“Back to the prince, this person is called Zhao Lang!”

Bang.

As soon as the words of the Grand Prince fell, a sound of a heavy object hitting the ground was heard.

Looking up, he saw that the gift in the other man’s hand had somehow fallen to the ground and that the man was frozen in place.

It seemed to be stunned by the sound.

The Grand Prince was extremely attentive and picked up the gift, smiling and saying

“Your Majesty, this is my Goguryeo’s unique ginseng, worth a thousand pieces of gold!”

“Even the wooden box in which it is kept is a very special ebony wood, extremely hard, this small drop will not matter, you need not worry.”

It was only then that Hu Hai came back to his senses and gritted his teeth as he said

“What did you say the man’s name was?”

The Grand Prince sent the wooden box forward with the utmost certainty and said that

“Zhao Lang! I have also heard that he is from Xianyang! ”

Hu Hai took the wooden box as soon as he could at this point, then stood up and slapped it on his hand.

Well, it was indeed very hard.

Looking again at the great prince in front of him, Hu Hai spoke to

“Grand Prince, come closer.”

The Grand Prince leaned over in a hurry and

“What do you want, Your Majesty…”

Bang!

“Ah! Why did you do it, Your Majesty! Imperial son! Imperial Son!”

Soon the Great Prince’s screams were heard throughout the palace, interspersed with Hu Hai’s roar of rage, the

“You want to die yourself, how dare you drag me along!”

“See if I don’t beat you to death! ”

By now, it was dawn, and people had long gathered outside the Xianyang Academy.

Apart from the Confucian students, there were also many spectators.

At this moment, on the periphery, Han Cheng was speaking with some regret to Zhang Liang, who was beside him, about

“I haven’t met Gongzi Lang in the past few days, and I don’t know if he will come today.”

“Alas, it would be a pity if we can’t recruit Gong Zi Lang this time.”

Zhang Liang reassured to that

“Your Excellency, there is no need to worry, there are many Confucian students here, and there must be virtuous talents.”

Han Cheng bristled a little in disbelief, who could be better than Gongzi Lang, who was most to his liking?

Just as the two were looking around, suddenly a masked figure crashed towards them.

Zhang Liang’s face twitched slightly and his hand was already groping towards the weapon behind him, when he heard the other man whisper.

“King Han!”

Zhang Liang’s eyes snapped open and he looked at the person who had come.
