Chapter 594: Chapter 245: Ying Zheng: Did Zhao Feng Kill the King of Donghu? The Court is Shaken!
At once!
Everyone became solemn.
Xiao He also snapped back to reality, tidying his attire, with officials around him following suit.
This visit was from Zhao Feng.
A hero of Qin.
They did not want to lose respect in front of a hero.
“The Senior General is coming.”
“Rumor has it that the Senior General is very young and exceptionally brave; being able to meet him today is our honor.”
“Indeed, a hero of Qin, a hero of our Huaxia people, and the Senior General is also a native of Shaqiu, making it our pride.”
“Seeing the Senior General today is a blessing for three lifetimes.”
“Everyone, quiet down.”
“The Senior General is coming.”
…
Watching the approaching Black Armor Cavalry, everyone outside Shaqiu City eagerly awaited, as if waiting for their idol to arrive.
Finally!
After waiting for a moment.
Under the protection of over a thousand trusted aides.
Zhao Feng’s carriage had arrived at the front of Shaqiu City.
As the carriage just stopped.
“Inferior official, Shaoqiu Governor Xiao He, leads Shaqiu officials to welcome the Senior General.”
Xiao He walked to the front of the carriage.
Bowed respectfully.
“Welcome, Senior General.”
Numerous Shaqiu officials also bowed in salute.
Upon hearing.
Zhang Ming immediately dismounted and walked to the carriage, drawing back the curtain.
Zhao Feng stepped out slowly.
“Gentlemen, thank you for the warm welcome.”
“I am grateful.”
Zhao Feng said with a smile.
His gaze fell directly upon Xiao He.
“The Senior General is a hero of Qin, and more so of our Huaxia Ethnic Group.”
“Being able to welcome the Senior General back home is our honor as officials,” Xiao He said sincerely.
It’s not just him.
All the officials and Prefecture Soldiers behind him were the same.
Upon seeing Zhao Feng, everyone’s expression became excited.
As if witnessing the true War God returning.
Now, with Ying Zheng’s decree, Zhao Feng’s prestige had reached an unimaginable level for ordinary people.
And at this moment!
Upon seeing Zhao Feng disembark.
The tens of thousands of Shaqiu citizens waiting outside the city also became extremely excited.
“Shaqiu citizens welcome the Senior General back home.”
Countless citizens shouted excitedly as if seeing their idol.
Zhao Feng raised his head, seeing so many citizens gathered outside the city, and was momentarily stunned.
But then.
Zhao Feng immediately stepped forward, cupped hands and said: “Folks, for troubling you to personally welcome me, Zhao Feng feels ashamed.”
“Senior General.”
“For Qin, for Huaxia, you have achieved unparalleled feats.”
“Today, we came especially to admire the Senior General’s charisma, and indeed it lives up to the name.”
“That’s right.”
“Seeing the Senior General today is our honor.”
“The Senior General is indeed extraordinarily brave, deserving of being Qin’s foremost War General.”
“The Senior General is a true hero.”
“We greatly admire this.”
“The Senior General struck down the foreign tribes, avenging clansmen, and is truly a hero.”
“We admire this.”
…
Praises echoed from the mouths of countless citizens.
In a political setting, this flattery might seem exaggerated, but here each citizen was filled with sincerity and great excitement.
They came out of the city to welcome their hero completely of their own accord.
Though they hadn’t witnessed Zhao Feng’s prowess in battle firsthand.
From the decrees of the Imperial Court they could imagine how thrilling and dangerous it was for Zhao Feng to forge into the foreign tribes.
Leading a solitary force into the Northern Frontier!
At any moment, he could be surrounded and killed by foreign tribes.
Yet Zhao Feng forced his way back, unharmed, and destroyed the Royal Court of Donghu.
“Folks.”
“Protecting the country is a soldier’s duty.”
“Though Zhao Feng holds the title of Protector-General, he is still a soldier of Qin.”
“This time leading the army into foreign lands.”
“One reason was to avenge the tens of thousands slaughtered under the foreign tribes in the Land of Yan, the other was to ensure peace at Qin’s borders.”
“It’s fortunate.”
“Zhao Feng succeeded.”
“And now.”
“Zhao Feng will share some good news with all of you.”
“The King of Donghu was slain by Zhao Feng days ago.”
“For the next decade, Donghu will not encroach upon Qin’s national power.”
Seeing so many citizens welcoming spontaneously, Zhao Feng was very excited, and again announced this yet unspread good news to the people.
Upon hearing.
Numerous citizens were thrilled.
“Bravo, Senior General!”
“Hahaha, Donghu’s King was slain by the Senior General.”
“Well done.”
“This time, those damned foreign scoundrels have no chance to invade Qin, invade Huaxia.”
“The damned foreign tribes, all deserve their fate.”
“Bravo, Senior General!”
“The foreign king is dead, no wonder the Senior General…”
Numerous citizens began to excitedly discuss.
“The King of Donghu is dead.”
“General Zhao Feng truly deserves the title of War God.”
Xiao He also looked with a face of astonishment.
Seemingly surprised by the news.
“Folks.”
“It’s been a long time since I last saw my mother.”
“This time venturing into the lands of foreign tribes, certainly her heart was deeply worried, I cannot stay long in Shaqiu City, I ask for your understanding.”
Zhao Feng smiled, and addressed the Shaqiu citizens.
“Senior General, please journey home.”
“We ordinary people will see the Senior General off.”
“The Senior General honors filial piety, how can we hinder?”
“Please return home, Senior General.”
…
All the citizens spoke.
In an era where filial piety was paramount, naturally everyone supported.
Zhao Feng turned his gaze to Xiao He.
“Governor Xiao.”
“Would you be willing to accompany me to Sha Village for a chat?” Zhao Feng smiled slightly, inviting Xiao He.
