Daqin: White porridge and pickled mustard tuber, I became the national teacher

Chapter 114 Ying Zheng: Are you being arrogant because of your favor?

Ying Zheng said, "Don't dare? I think you dare very much!"

Thinking back to what Qi Pan had said about Zhao Gao recorded in history.

After his death, he joined forces with Li Si and forged his will.

Killed Fusu and Meng Tian.

Later, he instigated Hu Hai to kill his children.

There are also many ministers in the court.

Ying Zheng's face became even darker than water.

Originally, he had not yet figured out how to deal with Zhao Gao.

But when Zhao Gao was still alive, he actually dared to steal and hide things from his private warehouse.

He even stole the things his master gave him.

This was something he couldn't tolerate.

only........

He doesn't want Zhao Gao's life at the moment.

But he has committed such a serious crime, how should he be dealt with?

It would be such a waste to just put him in jail like this.

After all, he is a prime laborer and should not be wasted.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng suddenly remembered.

The mine managed by Feng Quji seems to be short of manpower.

Just then, a young eunuch walked in from outside the hall.

Xia Lin walked over quickly and whispered to the young eunuch.

He quickly walked back to Ying Zheng and said.

"Your Majesty, Lord Feng Quji requests to see you."

Oh?

Feng Qing is here?

Just in time.

Ying Zheng said, "Announce."

"promise."

Xia Lin walked out of the hall quickly, and returned after a moment.

Behind him, there followed Feng Quji.

As soon as Feng Quji came in, he saw Zhao Gao kneeling on the ground.

After a moment of slight surprise, he saluted Ying Zheng without looking away.

"His Majesty."

"Ah."

Ying Zheng asked, "Is there something wrong, Mr. Feng?"

"Your Majesty, I want to ask you if you have any spare manpower?"

Feng Quji said, "Last night, my men reported that another mine had been discovered."

"Your Majesty, you also know that I am short of people."

"The original mines are endless, and there is also the smelting of steel and weapons."

“Manpower is needed everywhere.”

"I really...I really am short of people."

As he spoke, Feng Quji raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng expectantly.

"Your Majesty, are you looking to allocate some manpower to me?"

"You don't need too many, a hundred or eighty will be enough."

what?

One hundred and eighty? ?

"Mr. Feng, do you think I have a hundred or eighty people available?"

Ying Zheng said, "One hundred or eighty, no."

"There are still 17 or 18 left."

what?

Seventeen or eighteen?

Is this too little?

Feng Quji said, "Your Majesty, this discount you gave is too big..."

"Give me at least fifty or sixty. Seventeen or eighteen is not enough for mining."

"Then do you want it?"

Ying Zheng said, "If you don't want them, I will arrange for these seventeen or eighteen people to go somewhere else."

what?

Arrange somewhere else?

Feng Quji was anxious!

"Hey, hey, hey! Stop it! Your Majesty!"

"I want it! I want it, isn't that enough?"

"Seventeen or eighteen is fine, it's better than nothing..."

After saying that, Feng Quji asked again.

"By the way, Your Majesty, are these seventeen or eighteen men all in their prime?"

“Can we take them directly to mine?”

this.......

Just take them to mine?

Ying Zheng's gaze fell on Zhao Gao who was sitting below him.

Seeing his condition, just take him to mine.

It seems a bit difficult.

At least give it a few days to adapt.

Feeling Ying Zheng's gaze on him, Zhao Gao suddenly shuddered all over.

Your Majesty, you won't let him go mining, will you?

Ying Zheng said to Feng Quji, "It's not a good idea to just take him to mine."

"The workload is so intense that I'm afraid I'll collapse in the mine."

"but......."

"Feng Qing can also make appropriate arrangements based on the situation, and slowly increase the intensity once they have adapted."

Ok?

Make appropriate arrangements according to the situation?

Once you get used to it, then slowly increase the intensity of your work?

Feng Quji said, "Okay, I think your Majesty's method is feasible."

He can first arrange people to go to the foot of the mine to carry stones and pull ore.

Let them dry for a while.

After their bodies have adapted, let them mine.

After figuring it out, Feng Quji asked.

"Your Majesty, where are these seventeen or eighteen people?"

"I will just take it with me, so I don't have to make another trip next time."

Ying Zheng said, "Here is one, you take it first."

"For the rest, I'll let Xia Lin take you there."

what?

Is there one here?

Feng Quji looked around in shock.

The eldest son Fusu?

impossible.

Lord Wang Wan?

impossible.

Xia Lin.......

Well.

His Majesty just said that he should let the remaining person take me there.

That wouldn't be him either.

After eliminating the candidates one by one.

Feng Quji's gaze finally fell on Zhao Gao, who was kneeling beside him.

He asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty, the person you are talking about is Lord Zhao Gao?"

"Exactly."

Ying Zheng said, "Take him to mine."

what?

Your Majesty really wants to send him to mine?

Zhao Gao looked up in disbelief, "Your Majesty?"

"You...you want to let the slaves go mining???"

"how?"

Ying Zheng said, "Why not?"

“No…..No….”

Zhao Gao explained, "Your Majesty, I have followed you since I was a child."

"From Zhao to Qin, I have always been by your side, serving you."

"You can't do this to me!"

Ying Zheng said, "Are you being arrogant because of your favor?"

"From Zhao to Qin, have I ever treated you unfairly?"

"How dare you steal things from my private storehouse?"

"Do you think I dare not punish you?"

"Slave...slave dare not..."

Zhao Gao's face turned pale.

"Humph!"

Ying Zheng said, "I think you are very brave!"

After saying that, he turned and looked at Feng Quji.

"Feng Qing, just take him away."

"Don't be polite to him. He is just like the other miners."

Feng Quji nodded quickly and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Feng Quji had been thinking about it since he came back from the inn.

Will Your Majesty punish Zhao Gao?

How will it be handled?

Your Majesty was very quiet yesterday and did not show any intention of punishing Zhao Gao.

I didn't expect that when I entered the palace today, Zhao Gao was already kneeling here.

Listen to what your majesty means.

This Zhao Gao was so ignorant that he stole things from His Majesty's private storehouse?

OK, OK!

This is such a bold thing!

How dare you reach out to Your Majesty?

Stealing His Majesty's things!

When he gets to the mine, he will definitely teach him a lesson!

Assign him the hardest, most tiring and worst job!

Let him be the first one to go mining!

Feng Quji said to Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty, please lend me two soldiers first."

"I will bring it back to you when you are done using it."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "Okay, go ahead."

"okay!"

Feng Quji hurriedly called out to two burly and strong soldiers.

He said to Zhao Gao, "Hold him down for me!"

"Take him with me and leave the palace to the mines, then you can come back."

The two soldiers responded in a deep voice, "Yes!"

Then he strode towards Zhao Gao.

One on the left and one on the right, they grabbed Zhao Gao's arms and lifted him up.

Zhao Gao struggled in panic and kicked his legs!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please don't do that!"

"I know I was wrong! I won't do it again!"

"Please spare me!"

"I am willing to stay with you forever! I don't want to go mining!"

"I am willing to serve you like a slave for the rest of my life! Please, Your Majesty, please keep me!"
