Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me for corruption

Chapter 100 Does your butt still hurt?

It was clear that Yuan Man was seeking personal revenge. Since Qin Mo disappeared, she and Yu Ji were worried, and in recent days they were even closer to despair.

But what about Qin Mo?

I actually found a young...no, an old, mature woman outside!

Moreover, they didn’t go back even after they got out of trouble. Instead, they pretended to be a carefree couple in this wild and wild land.

If she didn't give her a few strong whips and take the opportunity to vent her anger, she wouldn't be the eldest princess who dared to kick Hu Hai's butt behind Ying Zheng's back!

Ying Zheng had already noticed the abnormality, but looking at Qin Mo with distorted facial features, he nodded and smoothed his beard, seeming very satisfied.

The coward deserves a beating!

Fusu, one of the executioners, was even more unkind. He pretended to be weak and said: "I am very weak and weak after running around for days for my brother. My sister can execute the remaining five lashes on my behalf."

Qin Mo stared: "Huh?"

Snap——

Qin Mo stared again: "Huh?!!"

Bang bang bang——

Hitting his buttocks with whip after whip, Qin Mo seemed to be reliving the fear of being dominated by his old mother's fried bamboo shoots and meat as a child in his previous life.

Snap——

After Yuan Man finished the last whipping, his pretty face turned slightly red, his cheeks were sweating, and he felt refreshed.

Ying Zheng was also satisfied and asked Qin Mo, who was still saluting: "Do you know why I punish Yu Qing?"

Qin Mo said solemnly: "I know!"

Ying Zheng asked again: "Will you dare to be reckless next time?"

Qin Mo blurted out: "Definitely next time!"

Ying Zheng Danfeng's eyes suddenly widened: "Huh???"

Qin Mo immediately changed his words: "I will definitely...not do it next time!"

Ying Zheng shook his head secretly and sighed. He knew Qin Mo's character very well. Needless to say, Qin Mo would correct and encourage some things.

But there are some things that, if you say them a hundred times a thousand times, most of the time you will still do it willfully!

"Stop pouting, no courtesy."

Ying Zheng waved his hand for Qin Mo to accept the courtesy, then looked him up and down, and asked: "I heard that Aiqing fought with the prince of the ancient Kingdom of Panyu, what was the outcome?"

"I made some thunderbolts for use, and set up an ambush in a narrow valley. I stoned the Panyu prince to death and captured most of the Panyu army alive. No one escaped." Qin Mo said concisely and comprehensively.

Ying Zheng nodded appreciatively, stroking his beard and smiling at the officials accompanying him: "As expected, if we don't find him, Qin Qing may really want to take over the land of Baiyue!"

All the officials were slandering in their hearts, it turned out to be a hammer.

I didn't know who it was before, but when I heard that Prime Minister Qin led more than a thousand Yue people to fight against an enemy five times as strong as the Crown Prince of Panyu, he was so shocked and angry that he wanted to lift the table and shouted that he would personally lead his army to support...

But when they saw Ying Zheng smiling, all the officials were filled with slander, but they also felt at ease: "The person who can comfort the First Emperor must be Prime Minister Qin!"

"Prime Minister Qin deserves to be the best warrior in China. He is invincible in every battle and takes every attack!"

All the officials cooperated very cooperatively to send rainbow farts to Qin Mo, but Qin Mo was too humble to accept it.

Ying Zheng was in a good mood, and after being ashore for a long time, his body gradually adapted to it, so he said: "We will set up a sumptuous banquet on the shore to welcome your love and wash away the dust, and also give food and wine to reward the whole army!"

"Here."

Zhao Gaoxing rushed to accept the order and hurried to organize the arrangements.

…

Ying Zheng has been seasick in recent days. He vomited after eating one mouthful. Now it is rare to have an appetite. Huotoujun was so happy that he sent someone to ask Qin Mo for advice on how to cook seafood.

Then, he kneaded the noodles and chopped the stuffing, made shrimp dumplings as the staple food, boiled them with mutton bone soup, and served the banquet to keep everyone full!

"In the presence of the First Emperor, elders should pay attention to their appearance."

Qin Mo looked at the nine shaman chiefs beside him who were devouring their food, and lowered his voice to remind him.

The nine chief wizards nodded solemnly: "I will obey the decrees of the gods."

After saying that, I was eating shrimp dumplings at a pace that refused to slow down at all.

Qin Mo shook his head speechlessly. During these days, he had also trained some young Yue soldiers to cook meals for the nine tribes under military control.

But after all, it lacks seasonings and meticulousness, and it is definitely not as delicious as the food cooked by the Imperial Guards Firehead Army!

"Ai Qing is really too dazzling when dressed up like this. It's no wonder that all tribes of Yue people respect Ai Qing as a god."

Ying Zheng seemed to have heard what the nine witch chiefs called Qin Mo, and sighed while eating the appetizing shrimp dumplings in sour soup.

Qin Mo clasped his hands in disbelief: "I will make a pair of black bird golden dragon armor for your majesty later. When I become a god, your majesty will be the emperor of heaven, and all the people of Yue will worship you!"

Ying Zheng blinked his red phoenix eyes in astonishment, looked at Qin Mo's handsome silver armor and asked hesitantly: "Is it suitable?"

"suitable!"

Qin Mo nodded solemnly: "This will help the Qin Dynasty conquer the land of Baiyue, rule the millions of ancient Yue people, and then deify them in the future."

"That being the case...the Black Bird Golden Dragon Armor should be more ornately made."

Ying Zheng raised the topic with some shame, then changed the topic and said: "I guess your beloved has a plan to destroy the ancient country of Panyu. Do you need my 20,000 troops to join the battle?"

“It’s not necessary and cannot be used!”

Qin Mo shook his head firmly and refused.

Ying Zheng was dumbfounded. It was understandable that he didn't need to use it. Qin Mo was confident of winning, but it was confusing if he couldn't use it: "How do you interpret Aiqing's words?"

Qin Mo clasped his hands and said: "In the name of the gods, I led the Yue tribes to resist the harsh rule of the King of Panyu. In the final analysis, it was a civil war in the ancient country of Panyu."

"If foreign troops are invited to join the war, even the troops from the neighboring Fu Lou ancient country will arouse the common hatred among the Panyu tribes!"

Ying Zheng suddenly nodded: "Well, that makes sense... Then how should I behave in the future?"

Qin Mo organized his words for a moment and then replied: "With the power of victory, we will surrender the 5,000 Panyu tribe troops, let their tribes work together, build armor and train them to be young and strong."

"Then...then, improve water conservancy and open up wasteland for farming!"

Ying Zheng and Fu Su Yuanman, as well as the officials who were listening attentively, were confused by this amazing turn of events: "???"

Even Old Wang Ben was astonished and asked: "Isn't it possible to go straight to the royal city of Panyu and take advantage of the victory to destroy the Sheji Ancestral Temple?"

Fu Su, Tu Sui Renxiao and other generals also followed suit: "If we don't take advantage of the victory and destroy it, when the King of Panyu reconvenes his army and sends troops to attack, it will be another fierce battle!"

All the civil servants nodded and agreed with the generals' words.

Only Ying Zheng nodded first, then shook his head, as if he had some understanding.

Looking at Qin Mo's past achievements, except for the previous expedition against the barbarians outside the Great Wall, he killed and injured countless herdsmen with his violent advance.

During the period of the rest's attacks on the Six Kingdoms, since he was promoted to captain and led an army alone, he combined attack and control to the maximum extent, in order to capture the land, restore production as quickly as possible, and make the people obey Qin's rule.

This is also the biggest reason why Ying Zheng frequently promotes and re-appoints Qin Mo!

The land of Baiyue is also part of the unification war. It is reasonable for Qin Mo to choose to fight slowly and steadily!

"My lords, the people of Baiyue are no better than the foreigners outside the Great Wall. Sooner or later they will become the people of Qin."

"If we continue to fight blindly and eat up the meager wealth of the Yiyue people who have no future today, even if we can overthrow the rule of King Panyu, most of them will starve to death after the war. I don't want to do that!"

Qin Mo's answer was exactly the same as Ying Zheng's guess.

"Furthermore, what you gentlemen do not know is that the old tribes of the Six Kingdoms have been restored in the land of Baiyue, and the kings of the Yue people have frequently fought with them, but they have lost more than they win."

"The kings of the Yue people lost their troops and destroyed their generals, and frantically squeezed the tribes under their control. Not only did they take a large number of young tribesmen and send them to the battlefield to die in vain, they also ignored the lives of women, children, the elderly and the weak, and collected taxes as if they were plundering."

"Therefore, the tribes have long been dissatisfied with the rule of the kings."

"The Qin Dynasty only needs to send officials to act as a savior to govern the existing tribes well, so that they can have enough food and clothing, and those who have a permanent output will have perseverance. The remaining tribes do not need to call in threats, but must be willing to do so."

"If the King of Panyu dares to recruit the tribe's young men to suppress the rebellion, he will be throwing himself into a trap. He will definitely experience the consequences of having his tribes turn against him in front of the enemy!"

Qin Mo told everything in his heart.

This was a path that Ying Zheng had never imagined. Danfeng's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened, and he said happily: "In this way, we, the Great Qin Dynasty, can push the boat along with the current and incorporate the territory of the ancient country of Panyu into our territory!"

Fusu and a group of generals also said: "We should follow the same method to defeat the neighboring ancient Fulou country!"

The civil servants were even more excited, especially those who believed in Confucianism. They all high-fived and praised him.

"The strategy adopted by Prime Minister Qin is really in line with nature and responding to the people!"

"Using the right to defeat the unjust is actually a great act of kindness and benevolence!"

"The Yue people respect Prime Minister Qin as their god, which is not a loss..."

Qin Mo was so happy by the rainbow fart that the food and wine arrived at the table, so he picked up the wine bottle and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, gentlemen, drink to the victory!"

“Drink to win!!!”

Ying Zheng, Fu Su and all the officials all picked up wine bottles and drank.

"If we, the Yue people, can have enough food and clothing, we are willing to return to the rule of the Qin Dynasty forever. We only ask for good treatment."

The nine shaman chiefs imitated the same example, then raised their heads and drank from the wine bottles, and then their facial features instantly shrank into a ball.

Qin Mo said quietly: "If you want to vomit, just vomit."

Puff puff puff——

As if they had been granted amnesty, the nine chief shamans all squirted out the distilled wine they had drunk into their mouths, grabbed the dishes in front of them and stuffed them into their mouths to calm down the spicy taste that was scratching their hearts and livers.

They are accustomed to drinking fermented rice wine, but they really can't stand the abuse of distilled wine, even the soft sake that has been stored in the cellar!

"Hahaha……"

Everyone at the banquet burst out laughing when they saw this. Even the fire-headed soldiers who were busy serving the dishes were laughing so hard that they couldn't hold their plates steadily.

When the joyful atmosphere subsided a little, Ying Zheng suddenly said to Qin Mo again: "My dear, if the Yue tribe that has surrendered is attacked by the Restoration Army of the Six Kingdoms, what should we do? I heard that the uncles and nephews of the Xiang family are very difficult to deal with.

Very good!"

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, but then he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't be too pretentious. If the old tribes of the Six Kingdoms dare to provoke the surrendered tribes, Great Qin can send heavenly soldiers and generals to help in the war. No one in Yue will be averse to the reinforcements."

"Furthermore, it can deepen the dependence of the Yue people on our rule of the Qin Dynasty, and also allow our Qin army to smoothly enter the land of Baiyue."

Ying Zheng raised his head and took a sip of wine: "Very good!"

Then he looked at Fusu and Baiguan and said: "The ministers have also put their minds together to fill in the gaps for Qin Qing. You can write to me at any time. If you have something to say, I will reward you."

He was well aware of Qin Mo's habits and took the initiative to let the ministers share their burdens.

"Here!"

Fusu and the officials bowed hands.

…

…

The banquet ended late at night. The army had already set up camp on the shore, and Ying Zheng could finally have a peaceful sleep.

Qin Mo drank a lot, checked the five thousand tribal prisoners who were escorted back, and then went to find his tent to rest.

"Your Majesty, are we going back to Baozhu Village to camp?" Zhang Liang grabbed the drunken Qin Mo and asked in a low voice.

Qin Mo smiled and patted his shoulder, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? Just stay here with peace of mind tonight and don't walk around randomly."

"but……"

"No but, Your Majesty already knows that you are serving under my command, but you have never asked about it. This is an acquiescence. We will talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to do."

Qin Mo waved his hand and staggered away, leaving Zhang Liang with a helpless face.

Obviously, Qin Mo does not intend to let Zhang Liang, the traitor, leave, and he will never leave again in this life!

…

The prime minister's tent was next to the emperor's imperial tent, and it was very easy to find. Yu Ji and Lu Pheasant, who had been waiting in the tent for a long time, saw Qin Mo coming back drunk and hurriedly helped him take off his armor.

There were not only Yu Ji and Lu Pheasant in the tent, but also Gongsun Ye and his grandchildren, including the little rhinoceros.

"The Lord's kindness will never be repaid by Gongsun!"

Gongsun Ye led his grandchildren to pay homage to Qin Mo, crying.

Qin Mo stretched out his hand to support him: "It's obvious that these two children have experienced changes one after another, so they are not scared, right?"

Gongsunye wiped the tears from his muddy old eyes and replied: "I'm still ignorant. I don't know much, but I turn around and play carelessly again."

Qin Mo rubbed the heads of the two children: "This is very good. It will save you heartache at a young age."

"It's getting late. We'll talk about something tomorrow. Let's get some rest early."

"Here!"

Gongsunye clasped his hands and led the two children out of the big tent and went to the small tent next to them to rest.

Qin Mo felt dizzy and allowed the two women to take off his clothes. After being stripped naked, he got into bed and was about to go to sleep.

Yu Ji and Lu Pheasant looked at each other in confusion, and the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.

From the way the two women took off Qin Mo's clothes, they could tell that they had a close relationship with each other.

After all, as long as the relationship is shallow, it is impossible to be calm and take off Qin Mo's pants!

However, as deep as the relationship is, there are still essential differences between the two women.

Yu Ji and Qin Mo are truly inseparable from each other. Although they are not husband and wife, they are better than husband and wife, and they are even relatives who depend on each other for life.

But Lu Zhi was different. When she took care of Qin Mo who had a concussion, she was used to everything, so she could be calm and composed.

Ever since Qin Mo's health got better, she and Qin Mo have never had any insurmountable differences.

As for why I took the initiative to overstep today, it was probably to show Yu Ji!

"Go and fetch you some hot water to wash yourself before going to bed."

"I'll make you a pot of hot tea to relieve your thirst."

The two women were embarrassed for a while, and then they actually spoke at the same time.

Then, it got even more embarrassing!

Qin Mo had already entered a semi-asleep state and did not notice the embarrassment of the two women. He waved his hand and said: "Go back quickly, I am very sleepy."

The two women looked at each other and left the tent to work together.

As they left, the tent fell into silence, but after a while, there was the sound of light footsteps of a woman again.

Qin Mo thought one of them was back. He was confused and was about to speak when a jade hand reached into the bed: "Does your butt still hurt?"

Qin Mo trembled, and suddenly turned over and sat up: "Why are you here? Don't mess around, they will be back soon!"
