"No problem, what do you want from me?"

Li Mo asked straight to the point after he sat down.

He stretched out his hand and motioned for Zhao Gao to sit down.

But Zhao Gao bowed again and thanked him:"Thank you, Imperial Master. I won't sit down. I'll talk to you here. After that, you have to rush back to the palace."

Li Mo didn't force it.

Zhao Gao is very busy now.

He used to be responsible for running errands for Ying Zheng, but now he still needs to handle some government affairs.

Zhao Gao didn't dare to betray Li Mo.

He smiled brightly and said:"Your Majesty, please I came here to tell you that in the Battle of Chu State, General Wang Xiaojie captured eleven cities including Chen Ying, the old capital of Chu State. Your Majesty would like to ask the advice of the Imperial Counselor. Is it better to continue attacking Chu State in one go, or to rest for a while?"

Ying Zheng asked this question more tactfully.

To put it bluntly, he just wanted Zhao Gao to ask how the gunpowder production was going and whether it was enough for large-scale operations later.

This small victory of the Qin army did not surprise Li Mo. - Expected.

The batch of explosives shipped half a month ago was not large, but there is no problem in attacking a few cities. Besides, not only Wang Jian and his son and Li Xin were present in this battle, but also Wang Ben was there to support them. celebration.

Li Mo calculated it secretly, then shook his head and said:"Wait a minute, it won't be so fast."

The cost of making explosives is frighteningly high.

Although I have only made a small profit, Qin's financial resources are still beginning to be somewhat stretched.

Otherwise, Ying Zheng would not let Zhao Gao come over and ask such questions.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.

Once A full-scale war breaks out with the Chu State. If the follow-up explosive support is insufficient, it is very likely that the Chu State will fight back.

In this way, the gains outweigh the losses.

"Well, you understand, I will go back and inform the king right away."

Zhao Gao raised his hand and bowed, ready to leave.

But Li Mo suddenly stood up and said:"Wait a moment, I will enter the palace with you, I will go and talk to the king in person."

Li Mo waved his hand, and immediately a maid came over holding his fur coat.

Zhao Gao responded repeatedly:"That would be great, please invite the Imperial Master."

It's already the cold winter season.

Heavy snow is falling outside the house.

The snow started falling last night. Although it was only in the middle of the night, it has already decorated the world with silver makeup.

Li Mo fastened the collar of his fur coat and scraped his bones. The cold wind like a knife and the snowflakes as cold as blades blocked the outside.

As he walked, he reached out and picked up a handful of snow from the lampstand outside. He turned the snow left and right in his hand a few times, and then squeezed the snow into made a snowball

"The master's craftsmanship is so good."

Zhao Gao, who is following behind, is a first-rate flatterer.

Li Mo just made a snowball and he could praise him.

I admire him!

Li Mo really admires his smooth words.

No wonder he can turn a deer into a horse..

There are two kinds of people in this world that should never be underestimated.

One is a person like Li Si who is flexible and flexible.

The other is a person like Zhao Gao who knows how to follow the trend.

The former is a person, and the latter is a villain.

The ancients said: Only women and villains are difficult to raise.

It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain.

Because once a villain gains power, he will intensify his revenge on you.

"I heard that Mr. Zhao has been very close to Li Si recently?"

Li Mo didn't answer Zhao Gao's words, but asked suddenly.

Zhao Gao didn't think much, nodded and bowed and said:"Yes, yes, cabinet member Li is very close to the younger one."

He knows how Li Si, a member of the cabinet, came to be.

To put it bluntly, Li Si is Li Mo's man.

Zhao Gao cannot reach the top of Li Mo, so he can only settle down and establish a good relationship with Li Si.

Once Li Si is in the future Being supported to become the first assistant is also a strong ally for him.

Li Mo nodded calmly and said with a smile:"Li Si is a good person. He is not only motivated but also willing to endure hardships. I appreciate such talents.""

"If you want to be a master, you must have some real skills."

"Just flattering people is definitely not enough. If you hear this flattery too much, it will make people disgusted. What do you think, Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Gao's face suddenly changed. The soles of his feet seemed to be frozen with the ground, making it difficult to move at all.

He instantly felt that the biting cold wind seemed to penetrate directly through his clothes and penetrated into his body.

Let him It's like falling into an ice cellar, my body and mind are freezing!

On this cold day, there are dense beads of sweat on my head

"I’m not talking about you, Mr. Zhao, don’t worry too much."

Li Mo clearly sensed Zhao Gao's state at the moment, and stopped, turned around and said. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"yes......Yes, the little one knows, the little one knows."

Zhao Gao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said solemnly.

He couldn't tell that Li Mo was talking about him.

This was a warning to him not to use the same tricks on others that he used on others.

He would not accept this trick.!

"Well, it's good to know. Let's go quickly. Don't keep the king waiting."

Li Mo casually threw the snowball in his hand to the ground.

The snowball did not stop after it landed, but continued to roll forward.

A snowball that was originally only the size of a fist seemed to have suction. As long as it was Wherever it rolled, the snow on the ground was adsorbed together.

The snowball rolled farther and farther and bigger.

A clean road was soon cleared on the ground.

Zhao Gao was astonished to see it..

Just about to say flattery, he suddenly remembered Li Mo's warning just now. He immediately swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Li Mo actually didn't mean to embarrass Zhao Gao.

He just wanted to remind him not to be too distracted.

Unexpectedly But he was so frightened.

Two carriages came down the mountain one after another.

After entering the city, Li Mo found that the city had begun to be decorated with lights.

After doing some calculation in his mind, he realized that today is the Lantern Festival.

It was also the day when he and Feiyan first met..

Li Mo shook his head and smiled. He would have known that he had brought Feiyan out and took her to guess lantern riddles after leaving the palace.

When Li Mo arrived at Ying Zheng's side, Ying Zheng suddenly asked in surprise:"Why are you here, sir?" Already? Please take a seat."

Li Mo generally rarely enters the palace, except to see the Queen Mother.

He also does not attend the morning court.

If there is anything in the palace, Ying Zheng will send someone to convey it to him, and he will have someone bring the message back.

After Li Mo sat down, he said directly:"First of all Take some time off."

This proposal is exactly what Ying Zheng wants.

Although the Qin State has won successive victories, the treasury has been almost exhausted. It is just a good time to take advantage of this period of rest to stabilize the Wei State.

Li Mo then reminded:" There are also several cities in Chen Ying that need to appease the people."

The people of Chu are fierce, and the trend is still early.

The people in those cities are very likely to be dissatisfied with the management, and even cause turmoil.

Li Mo came here mainly for this matter.

Ying Zheng agreed:"Of course, I We are preparing to send someone to take over the government affairs there.

Li Mo asked:"Does the king have anyone to choose?"

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment:"Still in the process of screening."

Li Mo chuckled and said,"I do have a suitable candidate."

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up:"Who is it?" Li Mo's smile did not change and he said slowly:"

Changping Junxi"
