Chapter 1114: Invitation alone
This tribute from envoys from various countries ended with Lin Xiangru's offering of the Heshi Bi and overwhelming the countries.
Their respective missions were completed, and the envoys also said goodbye to Liu Xie, of course, they did not leave the Han Kingdom directly.
Under Liu Xie's "kind invitation", many envoys expressed their willingness to stay here for a few days. They were also very curious about why the people's hearts of this original capital of the Great Yan Kingdom changed so quickly.
...
With the farewell of many envoys, Lin Xiangru also planned to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Liu Xie.
"Lin Shangqing, let's stay."
Regarding Lin Xiangru, Liu Xie's name is polite enough.
"King of Han, what else can I ask for the foreign ministers?"
Lin Xiangru was stunned, and immediately thought that Liu Xie had something to ask him to tell King Zhao.
"Haha, I wonder if Lin Shangqing is willing to accompany me to walk in the capital of Yan State?"
Liu Xie laughed and walked off the dragon throne. Unlike before, he seemed very approachable at this time.
"This... the foreign minister is so honored that he is willing to accompany the King of Han to walk."
Lin Xiangru didn't expect that Liu Xie would make such a request. He was stunned at first, and then immediately agreed. He took this opportunity to consolidate the relationship between the two countries.
"Meng Zhi."
Liu Xie looked at Meng Zhi standing behind him.
"Subordinate is here."
Meng Zhi immediately bowed and responded.
"I and Lin Shangqing are walking in the city, you don't have to follow me... Oh, by the way, you bring the red lotus and let the palace maids arrange something."
Liu Xie waved his hand and said.
After hearing this, Meng Zhi did not follow him, but turned around and led the Korean Princess Honglian away.
"This woman is as beautiful as a fairy, and she is very few in the world."
Lin Xiangru looked at the girl who was taken away by Meng Zhi and sighed inexplicably.
"Oh? Is Lin Shangqing interested in her?"
Liu Xie strode out of the palace and looked at Lin Xiangru with interest.
"If you dare not, how dare the foreign ministers covet the Han King's woman, just..."
Lin Xiangru also followed Liu Xie's pace and said in great fear.
"Just what?"
Liu Xie strode forward, and a palace servant saluted him. He nodded slightly, but instead became more interested in Lin Xiangru behind him.
"It's just that a woman is so beautiful, and a Korean princess, but the Han King is so calm... Is Han King not planning to make friends with South Korea?"
Lin Xiangru gritted his teeth and asked.
In fact, Lin Xiangru didn't care much about the so-called female sex. What he cared about the most was the identity of the girl.
"Is this what King Zhao asked you to ask me?"
Hearing Lin Xiangru's words, Liu Xie said lightly.
"Foreign ministers deserve to die, offend the King of Han!"
After hearing this, Lin Xiangru's scalp exploded instantly. King Zhao asked him to make friends with the hero king, so that the relationship between the two countries must be further improved. If he ruined the relationship between the two countries because of his temporary slander, he would be dying!
"Okay, let's go, accompany me to walk around the city."
Liu Xie seemed not angry, but his tone was a little indifferent, which made Lin Xiangru unable to touch it.
...
Although Yan State was destroyed by the Han State, there was no way to see the streets of this capital that had just suffered war.
On the street paved with bluestone, there are many pedestrians and traffic.
There are all kinds of foot vendors selling goods.
Some are hawking fresh fish that have just been caught, while others are peddling their own handicrafts.
The wine flags on both sides of the street are waving in the wind, and the lively sounds are endless.
Lin Xiangru and Liu Xie walked on the streets of this capital. Whether it was the common people in linen clothes or the wealthy families dressed in beautiful clothes, everyone's faces were filled with happy and satisfied smiles.
"Lin Shangqing, what do you think of these people?"
Liu Xie asked Lin Xiangru beside him.
The two of them did not bring any guards, and they also changed into clothes for ordinary people. However, they could not hide their noble intentions while walking and looking around. There was no one who was not open to provoke them.
"These people... are very happy and satisfied."
Lin Xiangru looked at the people coming and going, thought for a while, and said so.
"How about the original Yan State?"
Liu Xie asked again.
"The Han Kingdom is hundreds of times better than the Yan Kingdom!"
Lin Xiangru thought about it and gave such an answer.
"Haha, it's hundreds of times better, so what... what about Zhao State?"
Liu Xie smiled and asked again.
"This... is far better than our Zhao State."
Lin Xiangru's face stagnated, but after thinking for a long time, he could only say so.
Indeed, the national strength of the seven heroes in the Warring States Period may be strong and weak, and they are different.
However, most of the lives of the people under their respective rule were just like that. The people under the Han Dynasty were completely overwhelmed by Yan State, so naturally they were completely overwhelmed by Zhao State. Lin Xiangru himself had to admit this.
"Can Lin Shangqing know why the people are so happy and satisfied?"
Liu Xie asked again.
"This... the Han King has a good governance, so naturally the country is prosperous and the people are safe!"
Lin Xiangru lowered his hands slightly.
“Incomplete.”
Liu Xie shook his head, thought for a while, and said again: "In Han Dynasty, officials will not bully peddlers, wealth will not bully poor. Those peddlers will not be bullied by wealthy merchants and officials. Those shops will not be harassed by gangsters, those honest and honest farmers will not be bullied by wealthy gentry. No matter what their background is, in our Han Dynasty, as long as they make military achievements, they will have the opportunity to make a name for themselves!"
And this is the key to the people of our Han Dynasty's living in peace and the desire of the people. People's lives are stable, and they can see hope for success, with goals and hope. This is what people want! Lin Shangqing, what I say is right?"
Lin Xiangru was also stunned by what Liu Xie said. These words exploded like an atomic bomb in his head and could not do so for a long time.
Indeed... If Lin Xiangru is also a commoner, and his country is destroyed by another country.
However, under the rule of this king who destroyed other countries, there is no injustice or oppression in the country, and everyone can see the opportunity to become one. So, will he be willing to devote himself to this king with all his heart?
There is no doubt that it will be possible. Even if one day the so-called royal family of Yan wanted to restore the country, the first one who refused to agree was afraid that these people who lived and worked in peace and contentment would be the first people who did not agree.
They are absolutely willing to take up weapons for such a country and a king, and defend until the last drop of blood is dry!!
"call!…"
After a while, Lin Xiangru took a deep breath and looked at Liu Xie with some complexity.
The world has been falling apart for hundreds of years. It can be said that people are determined, and the Qin State was the one who had the most chance to win the world.
However, the emergence of the Han Kingdom shocked everyone. The extremely powerful force wiped out the two vassal states in a row.
