Luckily, it didn’t take long for Hu Hai to be aggravated before Zhao Lang walked out, and he hurriedly followed him.
He couldn’t count on his father’s side, but he couldn’t lose Long’s side.
“Aren’t you going into the palace?”
Zhao Lang asked as he glanced at Hu Hai.
Hu Hai beamed and said.
“The emperor has returned from outside, and the father did not issue an edict, so I cannot enter.”
Zhao Lang turned to the black ice guards at one side and said that
“I also beg you to pass on the message again.”
The Black Ice Guard was about to receive his orders and leave when Hu Hai said with a grimace.
“No, I’m fine following you, Brother Long.”
He actually didn’t really want to go now, lest he have to agonise over which foot to lift first again, and then asked
“Brother Wave, where are we going now?”
Zhao Lang said, without looking back.
“First, we’ll go back to the manor in Xianyang City, and then we’ll meet Old Qin and the others.”
This time, he came back just in time to explain some things clearly.
Hu Hai nodded in response and casually said that
“Good, but Brother Long, your manor is quite big, when did you buy it, I remember before you only had the one outside the city.”
Zhao Lang said indifferently.
“From old dad.”
Hearing this, Hu Hai froze for a moment, then blinked his eyes and let out an oh.
Hanging his head in defeat, he followed.
All the way back to his old dad’s farmhouse from before.
Only when they reached the stately home, Han Wangcheng, Wei Wangguo, and Tian Du, who had been demoted to the rank of marquis, greeted them nervously.
Their fate was now in the hands of Zhao Lang.
“I have already spoken to father, and when we recover the Chu land, we will officially reward you all.”
“My previous promise will not change.”
Zhao Lang said without blushing, his heart not jumping, he certainly did not mention a few people in front of his old father.
It was not yet time for this matter.
“It’s just that I need you all to return to your respective places and help me collect the hearts of the nobles.”
The next big battle was basically using Han Qi Wei as a base, and he had to have the support of everyone.
Those of the noble landowners were no exception.
There is one thing to say, even if Zhao Lang cares about the peasants, but when it comes to strength, the economic strength of a thousand peasants is not as strong as that of one landlord.
So as long as these landlords did not do evil and were honest, Zhao Long would not do anything to them.
Hearing this, a surprised look appeared on several people’s faces, and it was Wei Wang Gui who said, rather subtly
“The Crown Prince is willing to let us return to our respective homelands?”
They had been following Zhao Lang, not without reason.
Even if Zhao Lang trusted them again, but this directly releasing them back, the meaning of this was different.
The other side wasn’t afraid that they would revive their flag again?
Zhao Lang, however, said extremely blandly at this time.
“I believe you guys.”
The few people of King Wei were slightly tensed up and were directly moved to close their eyes, lest they be seen in tears.
Tian Du at the side even revealed an unbelievable gaze, which was even more shocking than when he knew that Zhao Lang was really the Crown Prince of Great Qin.
Hesitating for a moment, he said.
“Zhao… Your Highness the Crown Prince, may I also?”
Zhao Lang nodded his head.
Tian Du’s boldness grew twice as much at this point and asked that
“Your Royal Highness, then can my throne be restored?”
Zhao Lang raised his eyebrows and said that
“If you really want to be restored, it is not impossible.”
“As long as you make enough merit.”
When Tian Du heard this, he immediately wilted; if he wanted to be crowned king, he could only achieve the feat of destroying the kingdom.
How was that possible?
But the king of Wei, Gui, said, with a twinkle in his eye
“Does Your Highness mean that if our descendants achieve such a feat, they can also be crowned kings?”
Zhao Lang glanced at his opponent, and then said.
“That’s right, as long as there are enough military achievements, they can be crowned kings!”
These royals staying within the Great Qin would have to listen to him honestly.
If there were ambitions to go outside, he wouldn’t mind giving some support.
His focus afterwards will be on the Great Qin first, and now he lacks the talent to expand outwards.
Having received an unexpected answer, several of Wei Wang Gui’s men then retreated to the side with excited expressions.
Only then did Zhao Lang see Liu Bang behind several people.
The reason why Zhao Lang had to bring Liu Bang with him was because he was afraid that something would go wrong.
Even if the other party looked, now, not the least bit threatening, he did not dare to let his guard down.
Because those who dared to take the other side lightly were basically sent away by the other side in the end.
“Brother Liu, did you have a good rest at the manor?”
Zhao Lang asked with concern.
Before Liu Bang could say anything, Fan Kuai on the side said with a big grin.
“Your Highness, there is wine and meat on the farm, excellent, excellent!”
Liu Bang could only show a smile at this time and said.
“It’s good, I just don’t know what I can go and do with the Crown Prince’s Hall!”
Zhao Lang smiled back, and
“Well, there is no need to rush Brother Liu, rest well first, after that I will arrange a position with less work and more money, once the family comes, life will be good!”
Hearing this, Fan Kuai at the side said, evenly.
“Very good, very good! Big brother, why don’t you thank His Highness the Crown Prince?”
“Hehehe, Your Highness the Crown Prince, I also want to…”
Zhao Lang laughed and
“No problem, in that case, the matter is settled.”
“Nu, have someone take care of Brother Liu.”
Hearing these words, Liu Bang could only smile and respond.
Having made the initial arrangements for Liu Bang, Zhao Lang was then relieved, before separating from the others and heading towards his own room.
“Brother Long, why bring them back to Xianyang when you want them to go to their own territory?”
“Isn’t it a waste of time?”
Hu Hai asked suspiciously at this point.
Let’s say Tian Du, who was in Qi at the time, ended up coming to Xianyang, and Zhao Lang wanted to send him back.
“Because I want to see his attitude.”
Zhao Lang said blandly.
Hu Hai let out an oh, but still didn’t quite understand.
But he quickly said that
“Brother Long, I’ve heard that Fusu is coming back! I reckon that boy is back to cause trouble! And Gao, he was up to no good last time!”
Zhao Lang said, with a slightly raised eyebrow
“How do you know that?”
Hu Hai gave a proud expression and said that
“Brother Long, you also underestimate me too much, I still have this information channel.”
Of course, he did not need to talk to Brother Lang about such trivial matters as seeing the messenger when he was in front of the palace.
Zhao Lang pondered for a moment and quickly said that
“I’ll leave this matter to you, just don’t let them bother me.”
How could he have the time and the heart to play court battles with these two people now?
Hu Hai’s eyes lit up and he patted his chest and said.
“Brother Long, just don’t worry!”
He was under orders to play the bleep!
After sending Hu Hai away, Zhao Lang let out a breath, he hadn’t relaxed much these days and was about to take Nu to find Old Qin and the others.
At this time, Nu reported with a little nervousness that
“Master, just now the Xianyang Spider Web came to report that Old Qin and the others are no longer in Xianyang City, they have all gone to the Crane Academy.”
“And it’s not just Elder Qin, the Confucian head, Ghost Valley has also returned, as well as Prime Minister Li Si and General Wang Jian are all over there.”
Zhao Lang narrowed his eyes slightly, what were these sons and daughters doing gathered together?
Without too much hesitation, Zhao Lang quickly said that
“Let’s go, back to the Crane School!”
