Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 421
Just when everything in the Lingnan area was moving forward, Ou Luo's envoys came to the city of Panyu, which had already taken shape.

Being able to serve as Ouluo's envoy, Du Fu is naturally a well-informed person in Ouluo Kingdom. Not only did he go to various tribes in South Vietnam many times before the war, but even the neighboring Dian Kingdom and Yelang were not defeated in the two countries. Before the Qin army broke through, it had also been sent as an envoy.

However, in this southwestern land, there has never been a city as magnificent as Panyu City.

My Ouluo's Ancient Luo City was originally considered a first-class city in this area, but compared with the Panyu City that has not yet been fully completed, it is completely insignificant.

"With this city, Qin should firmly occupy Nanyue!" Du Fu exclaimed.

……

Ou Luo came as an envoy, and Ziying naturally attached great importance to it. Now only Ou Luo is left alone among the hundreds of tribes in South Vietnam. Both the Qin Army and Ou Luo know that the next target of the Qin Army will naturally be the Ou Luo Kingdom.

From the perspective of Ziying's psychology, although Du Pan, the old king of the Ouluo Kingdom, had sent people to hunt down and kill his mother and aunt, fortunately, the two elders were not harmed.

It would be the best if Ou Luo could surrender to Qin directly without fighting.

Therefore, the standard for receiving Ou Luo's envoy was naturally extremely high. Not only the big and small generals of the Ziying Qin army, but even the chiefs of some of the original Nanyue tribes were invited to participate in this reception.

"Du Fu, the envoy of the Ouluo Kingdom, has seen His Royal Highness King Qin." Du Fu bowed to Ziying from afar.

Seeing the behavior of the Du Mansion, Ziying had an idea in his mind that Ou Luo might not be so easy to submit.

This Du Mansion is clearly meeting Ziying according to the relative etiquette of the two countries, and those who give such a simple gift are usually big countries with similar status.

This envoy from the Ouluo Kingdom seems to have a lot of backbone.

"Bold, you are so disrespectful to His Royal Highness King Qin, don't tell me you, Ouluo, want to invite disaster for the country!" Naturally, the officers and soldiers of the Qin army were very dissatisfied with the actions of the Du Mansion.

However, to Ziying's surprise, Zhao Tuo was the first one to come out and reprimand Du Fu.

Speaking of Zhao Tuo, we have to say that he was a character in history, who integrated the military forces left by Qin State in South Vietnam, and took the opportunity to establish the South Vietnam Empire when Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony.

From Ziying's point of view, naturally he wished to get rid of this hidden danger early, and even deprived him of most of his military power as soon as he came, and let Ren Xiao take over.

However, Zhao Tuo honestly handed over his military power, and didn't complain about Ziying's obvious arrangements against him.

Moreover, after Tu Sui's death, it was he who gathered the remnants of the Qin army, so it can be said that he made a great contribution.

Ziying couldn't find a good reason to find him awkward, and if he punished meritorious ministers without any reason, it would easily chill the hearts of the soldiers, so he could only be left alone.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Tuo, who had been silent all this time, was the first to jump out to defend him.

"Could it be that I blamed Zhao Tuo wrongly?" Ziying's thought disappeared in an instant.

Combined with his later generations' understanding of this Emperor Wu of Nanyue, Ziying would rather believe that this was one of Zhao Tuo's forbearance methods.

"My Ouluo Kingdom inherited the old Shu Kingdom. Both Shu and Qin were princes of Zhou, and Shu was crowned king far away from Qin. There is no distinction between the two countries." However, in the face of Zhao Tuo's accusation, Du Fu just replied lightly.

In terms of history, the history of the Kingdom of Shu is far longer than that of the Qin Dynasty, and it has already become king in the last years of the Shang Dynasty.

After the establishment of Xizhou, the Kingdom of Shu was regarded as Huangfu, and its king title was also recognized by the Zhou royal family in the early Zhou Dynasty.

According to Du Fu's words, the status of Ouluo State is far higher than that of Qin State.

After listening to Du Fu's remarks, Ziying also understood that this Du Fu should be a first-class figure from the ancient Shu Kingdom, and he still can't forget the previous glory of the Shu Kingdom.

Even in the face of the mighty himself, he doesn't want to lose the dignity of the Kingdom of Shu!

For such diehards, if you only look at it from Qin's point of view, you should hate it so much.

The generals of the Qin army in the hall did the same, their eyes gush with anger, wishing to burn down the Du Mansion.

However, after Ziying knew that he was the most orthodox direct descendant of the Shu Kingdom, he couldn't bear much anger towards such Du Mansion.

Ziying still has some gratitude for Du Pan's ability to create such a living space for the survivors of the Shu Kingdom in the poor mountains and rough waters. After all, those survivors are strictly counted as his own people.

"Your envoy is right, my Great Qin ancestor was a horse breeder, which is naturally not as good as the Shu Kingdom that has been passed down for thousands of years.

Not only the Kingdom of Shu, none of the eight hundred princes of the Zhou Dynasty had a longer history than our Qin Kingdom, and their titles are superior, but where are those princes at the beginning?
The only one who can stand to the end is me, Daqin!

At the beginning, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao Wei couldn't stop my Great Qin's soldiers. Back then, the Shu Kingdom easily destroyed the country for my Great Qin. Today's Ouluo is even more impossible to stop my Great Qin's soldiers.

I believe your envoy can also see this clearly. In order to prevent Ou Luo from bleeding into rivers, I hope that your envoy can go back and persuade Du Pan. "Ziying said to Du Fu.

"I have heard for a long time that King Qin's martial arts are brilliant, but I never expected that he is even more eloquent!" Du Fu said indifferently, "However, I, Ou Luo, have my own king's opinion on how to deal with myself. I came here just to deliver a message for my king."

"Speaking!"

"A few days ago, the King of Qin married the Queen of Xiou as his wife, is there such a thing?" Du Fu asked Ziying lightly.

"That's true!" Ziying replied.

But as soon as the words came out, Ziying's face changed suddenly.

Not only Ziying, but everyone present who knew the news that Lu Ning had left was a bit ugly.

Lu Ning's departure was originally a secret matter. The Du Mansion specially called on Lu Ning at this time, obviously not just to confirm, the following must be related to Lu Ning.

And if Ou Luo can have a relationship with Lu Ning, the only thing is that Lu Ning is now in Ou Luo!

Sure enough, Du Fu's next sentence confirmed Ziying's idea.

"A few days ago, the female monarch suddenly came to our Ouluo country, and now she is a guest in the palace. My king was worried about King Qin's worries, so she sent me to report to King Qin." Du Fu said to Ziying again, cupping his hands.

Hearing Du Fu's words, Ziying frowned, and the good impression he had towards Du Fu immediately disappeared with his words.

At the same time, those generals of the Qin army and the head of the Nanyue clan who didn't know the truth before also began to discuss in the crowd.

The news that King Qin's newlywed wife actually went to Ouluo was really explosive.

There was a "bang", and everyone looked in Lu Jia's direction following the sound.

At this time, Lu Jia had been officially appointed as the magistrate of Nanhai County, and he was still enjoying himself in the land of Nanyue.

"My daughter has not come back from traveling for many days, so she was taken captive by you, Ou Luo!" Lu Jia said through gritted teeth.
