The Prodigal Son of the Empire

"In addition, this inn is too luxurious, find an ordinary inn for them to stay in,"

"I don't want to wait for the food, I want them to spend their own money!"

"This...this...isn't appropriate," Li Qi said with difficulty, it's not enough to be served with good food and drink, if so, wouldn't it be worse?

"What's wrong?"

Wang Kang said coldly: "You were too used to them before, you should change now,"

"This is my rule! Whatever happens, I will stand up to it!"

Li Qi's heart trembled, but thinking that in the Ministry of Rites, this new official, even Mr. Cao, could hold his head down.

Zhao Huang personally appointed him again, so he must have a great background!

He gritted his teeth, "Okay, just do as you say, my lord, whoever dies or not, I've had enough of this!"

"Listen to the arrangement of the adults!"

Zhu Xuemei also said bitterly: "What's the matter, let's fight together as host and customer, at worst, we don't want to be this official!"

All this was provoked by Wang Kang, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation...

[Author's Digression]: The second update,

4Chapter 17 This is too efficient

While walking and talking, Wang Kang and the others went back to the Ministry of Rites. He felt that it was necessary for him to make some arrangements. From now on, he would change his attitude towards the envoys of the Yue Kingdom...

On the way back, he happened to meet another Yuanwailang who was chasing after him. Knowing what Wang Kang had done, he was naturally shocked.

Qin Guoan is the old man of the host and guest department. He has worked here for nearly ten years. He has been replaced by the host and guest secretary for one term. He is still here, so he naturally understands the pros and cons of this...

But at this moment, there is no other way to think about it all the way...

After Wang Kang left, in the pavilion, the fourth prince Xia Yanchun went crazy...

"Damn, damn!"

All the long cases were overturned, drinks, melons and fruits were spilled all over the floor, and it was a mess...

"Dare to beat this prince, dare to beat this prince,"

"What kind of host and guest doctor is this, it's too arrogant,"

"Fourth prince, are you okay?"

The accompanying officials from the surrounding Yue Kingdom all surrounded them,

"Wang Kang, Wang Kang, the Emperor wants him to die," Xia Yanchun's expression was contorted, and now his face still felt hot and raw,

He is the prince of a country, aloof, he has never been ear-slapped by others!

"Bai Tong, now I am writing a secret letter to my father and sending troops to send troops. I not only want Wang Kang to die, but also Zhao Guo to pay the price!"

"You go out first," said Lan Yulin, the middle-aged official who questioned Wang Kang earlier.

This person seems to have a lot of power in the mission. With his words, the rest of the people will all withdraw.

"Fourth prince calm down," Lan Yulin stepped forward,

"Calm down, how can I calm down? It's not you who was beaten!" Xia Yanchun said angrily.

"It's okay if you want that Wang Kang to die, but it would be unwise to send a message to His Majesty," Lan Yulin shook his head.

"Fourth prince, don't forget that our purpose in coming to Zhao is to get compensation and marry Princess Yulian for you!"

He then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's main target now is the nomadic tribes in the north, and he will not use troops against Zhao Guo for the time being, so I'm sorry to say it bluntly..."

"Even if you send the secret letter, His Majesty will ignore you, and His Majesty will despise you..."

"Why is this?" the fourth prince asked subconsciously.

Lan Yulin said in a deep voice: "It's normal for a child to go to find his father when he is wronged outside, but you are an adult prince, if you are like this, isn't it immature?"

Xia Yanchun was stunned by these words, and immediately understood that Lan Yulin was an official trusted by his father, so he had to take his words seriously.

Before he came, his father had confessed that he was the leader of the mission on the surface, but Lan Yulin was in charge in the dark.

Thinking of this, Xia Yanchun said angrily: "So, my slap is for nothing?"

"of course not,"

Lan Yulin's eyes shone with wisdom, "In my opinion, this is still a good thing!"

"A good thing? You, Lan Qing?" Xia Yanchun couldn't believe it.

"The main strategy of our Yue State today is to use troops against the nomads in the north. As long as it succeeds, our Yue State will not only gain ten thousand hectares of grassland, but also countless cattle, sheep, and horses!"

Lan Yulin said in a deep voice: "At this time, our country's national power will increase greatly, but what about Zhao country? Now it is the old man Mushui..."

"The new Emperor Zhao is carrying out a new policy, the conflict between the old and the new aristocrats inside is sharp, and the external powers are surrounded!"

"But there is one thing you need to understand. After all, Zhao State was a powerful country before, and a lean camel is bigger than a horse. What we have to do is to squeeze him dry, squeeze his last blood, and finally become ours!"

"Then what does it have to do with me being beaten?" Xia Yanchun asked.

"Of course it matters,"

"indemnity,"

Lan Yulin said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is still waiting for this indemnity as military expenses. Before we get it, we must have nothing else..."

"Then according to what you say, I've suffered in vain?"

"You are a prince, how can you suffer in vain, but we have to find a way, for example, to use this to make some articles and seek greater benefits!"

Lan Yulin said in a deep voice, "That's why I said this slap is well received!"

"Fourth Prince, Your Majesty has not established a crown prince yet, so I'm sorry to say that you don't have the slightest competitiveness in the competition for the reserve position!"

"Being able to go to Zhao country this time is a good time to perform!"

"If a slap in the face can bring great benefits to our country, His Majesty will definitely remember it!"

Hearing this, Xia Yanchun's eyes became brighter and brighter, because these words were spoken from his heart.

"The first emperor used to lead horses and endure humiliation... and finally established the Yue Kingdom. Now that you are slapped, what is it?"
