The Prodigal Son of the Empire

"How can you give the wealth of your own country to another country, but you can't do it if you don't give it. The Yue country is now strong. If not, war will start..."

"Your Majesty has the courage to fight, but there are very few civil and military leaders in the Manchu Dynasty, and you will not get a response!"

"This is one of them,"

Wang Kang looked at Zhao Huang and continued: "Secondly, there is an indemnity treaty between us and the Yue Kingdom. Although it is a piece of waste paper, it cannot be violated at will."

"It will damage the image of the country, and it will also make others say that you have turned your back on your promises, and you have no name for your success!"

"So what you need most now is an excuse!"

"This is also the reason why His Majesty transferred me to Kyoto, and why he asked me to be the doctor of the host and guest!"

Wang Kang paused every word: "Because you know my character... I will definitely not be the kind of person who compromises!"

"You want me to make the first cut, let me lead the way, let me propose the main battle,"

"In this case, I will bear the final result, and it has nothing to do with you... Am I right?"

After hearing this, Zhao Huang looked deeply at Wang Kang. It was the first time he met Wang Kang. After a while, he opened his mouth.

"I really can't imagine that you were a notorious prodigal before..."

"You are right, and that is indeed my true intention,"

Jiang Chengli looked into the distance, and said in a deep voice: "Three years ago, in desperation, I signed a treaty of indemnity and land cession, paying tribute for five years, and three years have passed!"

"Not only pay compensation, but also kiss the two princesses!"

"It's so unbearable, but none of the officials in the court dared to propose a war. It's ridiculous..."

As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Wang Kang with deep eyes, "Since you know, if you push this matter, you will become a target of public criticism, and even bear a bad name... you still come?"

Wang Kang asked back: "Do I have any other choice?"

After a long time, Zhao Huang said, "The outside world criticizes you a lot, but I know your talent. Now I have one last question to ask you!"

Jiang Chengli stared at Wang Kang, and said every word, "Are you ambitious..."

[Author's digression]: The first update!

4 Forty chapters of the Ministry of Rites, take office!

"Wang Kang... do you have ambition?"

Zhao Huang's young face had deep eyes, staring at him closely, as if he wanted to see through all his thoughts!

Sure enough, this is the problem,

I talked to my father before, and he also asked himself this question,

Emperor Zhao supports the upstarts as swords to fight against the old nobles. Since it is a sword with its own handle, it must be held in his hands!

At this moment, Wang Kang didn't dare to underestimate this young Emperor Zhao. To be able to walk out of so many princes must have something extraordinary...

Thoughts flashed by, Wang Kang said directly: "I didn't!"

He didn't, that's a fact.

"I believe in you,"

Zhao Huang also spoke directly,

"Forehead……"

Wang Kang was a little stunned. Is this the truth or a lie?He can't understand it either.

"By the way, there is something, I'm curious, how did you let 500 people beat 5000 people?"

Zhao Huang asked casually.

"Forehead,"

Wang Kang froze for a moment. It was still the day of his wedding. Yongdingbo Hanyu sent people to attack him.

Now Zhao Huang asked, what does it mean?

"You have your little secret, I don't ask, but can you sell some of the steel you smelted to the court?"

"sure,"

"What about the price?"

"The price will not be high, and I will only sell it to the imperial court," Wang Kang said again.

"Okay, for specific matters, I will ask Zhou Er to contact you,"

In a few words, a deal was concluded, but Wang Kang's back was covered with cold sweat.

I don't need to ask for a while, how can you fight five thousand with five hundred, but you must give me some benefits,

For the imperial court, stainless steel is naturally the most needed, to create weapons, to protect...

Wang Kang can only cooperate, which is a potential hint.

"Okay, that's all for today's conversation, I still have some memorials to review,"

At this time Zhao Huang interrupted his thoughts, "Wang Kang, I don't care what the outside world thinks of you, but I know your talent."

"As long as you help me with all your heart and no second thoughts, as long as my Zhao family is in charge of the country, then your banner of Fuyang will last forever!"

"This is my promise to you!"

Wang Kang's body trembled, he looked up and saw a sincere face,

He could see that Zhao Huang's words should come from the bottom of his heart!

For the king of a country, this is considered a great grace...

Wang Kang left, the first time we met, the conversation was not long, but it was enough for him to understand,

I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to have such a monarch on the stall,

All I can do now is look at what's in front of me.

After Wang Kang left, Emperor Zhao asked, "Wei Xian, what do you think of this Wang Kang?"

What he asked was an old eunuch beside him. This old eunuch was very old, with wrinkles and ravines on his face, his waist was bent, and he was trembling...
