Sure enough, after hearing Li Jian's words, the second prince's body trembled violently.

Such a powerful Qin Empire was destroyed in less than a year?

This is also terrible.

The second prince sighed and said, "I suddenly understood why our Seleucid Empire would have lost to your Han emperor so quickly before."

Yes, the second prince figured it out.

Assuming that the Qin Dynasty and the Seleucid Empire are both countries with 100 points, the Han Dynasty that destroyed the Qin Dynasty will have at least 200 points, or even 400,500 points.

In such a comparison of strength, the second prince was just a mere eastern governor of the Seleucid Empire at that time. The power he controlled was pitifully small, so what could he use to fight against His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Kingdom?

It is normal to lose! Li Jian looked at the second prince in surprise, and after a while, he said, "I didn't expect that you, a guy, can be quite flexible."

The second prince shook his head helplessly and said to Li Jian: "Li Baijiang, you may not know. I have a little regret now. Is it the right thing to come here?"

Li Jian said curiously: "What do you mean by this sentence?"

The second prince breathed a sigh and said, "I mean, whenever I understand your Han Kingdom better, I find that your Han Kingdom is so terrible! This really hurts my self-confidence. I don't know how our Seleucid Empire will be able to win if we really meet your Han Kingdom on the battlefield in the future!"

After hearing the second prince's words, Li Jian also muttered in his heart, beloved, this second prince is quite easy to be fooled if he can't tell.

However, there was a second prince saying that Li Jian agreed very much, so he smiled and patted the second prince on the shoulder and said, "To be honest, it's not just you who don't know. Even if I am a citizen of a great Han country, I myself don't know what kind of magical weapon and general should be able to defeat the great Han country's troops led by our Emperor!"

In fact, in the past so many years, as a nightingale, Li Jian spent most of his time working underground. This Western Expedition was the first time he went to fight with Zhao Kuo.

But this did not prevent Li Jian from being almost blindly confident about Zhao Kuo's military talent. In the eyes of Li Jian and most of the people of the Han Dynasty, His Majesty, his own emperor is the embodiment of victory! If it were before, the second prince who heard Li Jian's words would definitely not be optimistic, but today, the second prince agreed with Li Jian's words and nodded slowly.

"Yes, I also think that your Emperor is really a terrible opponent!"

This conversation ended like this.

The next day, the delegation continued to set off.

According to common sense, we should go directly to the Huhan Pass through Hangu Pass, then pass through Luoyang, Daliang and other cities, and finally arrive at the imperial capital.

However, in order to cooperate with the intelligence strategy, Li Jian had already notified the Han general who was escorting the delegation with the order of the Minister of Intelligence Mao Sui and changed the route.

So after leaving Xianyang, the delegation first passed several major cities in Guanzhong, then crossed the Yellow River to the northeast, and entered Hedong County.

On the side of Hedong County, the delegations saw the legendary Hedong salt fields. The mountains of salt were amazement by the members of the Seleucid mission.

Then, they met the former capital of Anyi, the overlord of Wei in the early Warring States Period, the former capital of Pingyang, the former capital of Han, and the capital of Jiangdu, the overlord of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Of course, these three cities are not as good as Xianyang City, but their scale still makes the mission eye-opener.

Then, the delegation continued to go south and crossed the Yellow River again to Luoyi, the Emperor of Zhou. Next, it continued eastward through Xinzheng, the last capital of South Korea, Daliang, the last capital of Wei, and Chencheng, the former capital of Chu.

As the cities came down, everyone in the Seleucid delegation's awe of the Han Kingdom increased dramatically.

The highest leader in the nominal mission and the court minister Doros couldn't help but quietly find the second prince.

Doros said very seriously: "Your Highness, it seems that we have made very serious mistakes in our previous judgment of the Han Kingdom.

This is an extremely rich and powerful country, a powerful country that is comparable to the empire established by Alexander the Great back then!”

The second prince's expression moved slightly, and after a while, he said lightly: "Uncle Doros, your words can actually be more rigorous.

At that time, Alexander the Great actually just conquered and ruled briefly, but the Han Kingdom... This country not only could destroy other countries, but also effectively and long-term rule over the original people of these countries.

With this alone, the emperor of the Han Kingdom has far surpassed Alexander the Great."

Doros was speechless.

The second prince said nothing wrong with this.

Is Alexander the Great strong?

Strong, very strong. Anyone who knows a little history in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad will not deny the power of this emperor.

But Alexander the Great also has a fatal flaw, that is, he died too early.

As soon as Emperor Alexander died, the entire empire fell apart in an instant. The generals of various tribes have established different kingdoms and empires and have been fighting civil wars with each other.

And what about the Han Kingdom?

The Han Kingdom was also unparalleledly powerful, but the rule of the Han Kingdom was also extremely stable. At least for now, it is impossible for anyone to think that the Han Kingdom would fall apart like the former Alexander Empire.

Therefore, the Han Kingdom is indeed stronger than the Alexander Empire, or the founding emperor Zhao Kuo of the Han Kingdom is stronger than the Alexander Emperor! Doros was silent for a while and sighed: "I am really looking forward to seeing that Emperor, Your Majesty, Your Highness, do you want to go with me then?"

The second prince was silent for a while and shook his head gently: "No, I still won't go."

After hearing Doros' inquiry, the second prince's first heart was not expectation, but fear! Yes, before even seeing Zhao Kuo, the second prince was already scared by the scene of the Han Dynasty that had been passing by and by the victory of Zhao Kuo that Li Jian mentioned.

The second prince even had a feeling that if he really stood in front of the emperor, his identity might be revealed in one second.

By that time, how could this second prince handle himself?

So, I'd better not go.

Doros looked at the second prince in confusion. The mature and polite court minister could detect that the second prince's mentality had obviously changed a lot compared to before.

But Doros didn't say anything after all. For Doros, he was about to meet the Emperor of the Han Kingdom. How to deal with this Emperor of the Han Kingdom respectfully was the top priority of all work. Compared with this work, the little troubles of the second prince, the young man, seemed completely unworthy of it.

Finally, the Imperial Capital has arrived.

On this day, Li Jian looked at the majestic outline that appeared far away on the horizon, smiled and stretched out the whip in his hand, and said to the second prince: "Did you see it?"

There is the Imperial Capital you have always wanted to see.”

When the second prince heard this, he could hardly wait to look towards the east.

There, countless buildings appeared in the eyes of the second prince. Even though it was still far away, the second prince could still feel the unparalleled majesty and grandeur from these buildings! The second prince subconsciously swallowed a saliva and suddenly discovered a very amazing question: "This imperial capital... does not have a city wall?"

The second prince's words were spoken in Seleucid, so he immediately reminded all members of the Seleucid mission.

They looked at the Imperial Capital in the distance in amazement, and confirmed again and again - yes, the Imperial Capital did not have a wall.

Li Jian laughed out loud, and also replied in the increasingly skillful Seleuthian language: "City wall?

Our Emperor Majesty once said that the imperial capital does not need a wall, because in this world, it is absolutely impossible for any enemy to come here!"

Li Jian's answer immediately made all the Seleucids present silent.

Unbelievable.

It's really unimaginable.

In this era, people have long been accustomed to the protection of city walls and have long been used to resisting the enemy with city walls.

What kind of courage does it take to completely remove the city wall like the emperor of the Han Dynasty?

The second prince's body couldn't help but tremble. At this moment, when he looked at the Imperial Capital City in front of him, he actually had the urge to kneel down on his feet.

There is nothing else, it is the confidence of a hero that is so great that the second prince is shocked.

The second prince has always felt that the Emperor Alexander the Great, who founded the empire, was the most outstanding hero in the world ever, and never before, but at this moment, the second prince's idea was shaken.

Perhaps Alexander the Great is indeed unprecedented, but there is no one to come?

Perhaps, this founding emperor of the Han Kingdom from the East had reached, or even surpassed Emperor Alexander! In this shock, Seleucid's mission entered the imperial capital.

This city without a wall undoubtedly shocked the Seleucids, so that when they entered the Imperial Capital and felt the gaze of the people from the Imperial Capital, they unconsciously felt shy, just like a rusty bun entering the city.

However, the people in the Imperial Capital only glanced at the Seleu people for a few more times and then turned their eyes and went to do their own things.

When the second prince looked at this scene, he suddenly became a little strange again, and said to Li Jian: "Li Baijiang, our skin color and appearance are obviously different from your Han people, why do you Han people seem to care about us very much?"

Li Jian laughed a little and said to the second prince: "When it's late, I'll take you to the market and you'll understand."

The second prince was confused, but when he saw Li Jian looking like he didn't say anything, he could only helpless.

More than an hour later, Li Jian and the second prince appeared in the southern city of the imperial capital.

The second prince of the curious baby asked another question: "South City, is there still Bei City?"

Li Jian smiled and said, "Yes, there are also East City and West City, a total of four major markets.

By scale, this Nanshi is actually the smallest one.”

The second prince looked at the huge area in front of him and couldn't see the end. The market was full of crowds. It was almost impossible to see clearly the stalls a few steps away: "..." The smallest market?

Li Jian smiled and patted the second prince on the shoulder: "Come with me!"

Li Jian didn't say anything. Nanshi is indeed the smallest market, but Nanshi also has functions that the other three markets do not have.

"Slave, the best slave! The Seleucus prisoners have been trained, they can work and endure hardships. If you buy a land that can plant three people when you go back, you will definitely not lose money!"

"The female slave of the woman, the female slave of the woman who just arrived! The best person to accompany the bed, the southwest style is not to be missed!"

"The Hu slave is good at raising horses and shooting archery. He buys a child who goes back to teach his family and lets the child win at the starting line!"

Various hawking sounds came one after another, lingering in the second prince's ears.

The second prince finally understood why Li Jian would say that he could give him an answer here.

The second prince looked around and murmured: "So many slaves..." The second prince really understood.

People from the Imperial Capital have basically been to Nanshi.

In Nan City, there are many slaves of all skin colors, appearances and figures, which are dazzling.

Since they were used to seeing these prisoners, the Seleucid missions were of course just that in the eyes of the people in the Imperial Capital.
To be continued...
