251 Marriage of Qin and Zhao
"Take the two strong men to the side hall to rest first!"
Pang Xuan on the front foot just escorted the grain and grass out of Handan, and two Qin soldiers on the back foot found Zhao Wangqian with the handwritten letter of Qin Wang Yingzheng, after a brief reading of Yingzheng's letter, Zhao Wangqian did not let the two Qin cavalry who sent the letter leave the Zhao Palace, but rested directly in the side hall, and he immediately convened the ministers to discuss the matter.
"What does Guo Xiang think?"
"This matter is a little strange, has the king ordered someone to find out the identities of those two?"
"Guo Xiang doesn't have to worry about this, he has already found out, it is indeed the cavalry of the Qin army, and the letter he brought is indeed the seal of the king of Qin, so it can't be faked, and when he entered my Zhao realm, he was also escorted by a large group of Qin troops."
"This is strange, it stands to reason that for such a major matter, then the King of Qin should at least send a courtier of sufficient weight to be the envoy, right? How could it be possible to send only two Qin soldiers to deliver the letter? ”
Guo Kai stroked his beard, he really couldn't figure out why Qin Guo would do this.
According to the letter, the king of Qin, in line with the national righteousness, was willing to send troops to help the Zhao army repel the Huns, and did not ask for anything, but for the sake of friendship between the two countries, he hoped to marry a princess of Zhao.
It's weird, it's weird everywhere.
"Is it possible that the situation is urgent, and the people of Qin knew about the crisis at Yanmen Pass, so in order to send the letter to the widow as soon as possible, they sent two cavalrymen?"
Zhao Wangqian could only guess Yingzheng's intentions, and he couldn't be sure.
"It's just that the widow is very puzzled, what is this King Qin thinking, why does he suddenly want to help our Zhao State? And also to marry the two countries? Could it be that the marriage of King Qin is addicted? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Seeing that Guo Kai and Zhao Wang Qiandu frowned, a not very famous official suddenly stood up.
"Speak!"
"Your Majesty, according to the ministers, this matter is due to the Qin State's other intentions, and the king cannot easily agree."
"You make it clear to the widow!"
Hearing Qin Guoju's suspicions, Zhao Wangqian immediately asked.
"Your Majesty, please look!"
The minister walked directly to the map hanging next to the main hall of King Zhao's palace and began to point it, and Zhao Wangqian hurriedly stepped off the throne and ran over to check it carefully.
"Although the Qin army has been transferred back to the vicinity of Yucheng, there are only 60,000 soldiers and horses outside Hangu Pass, and half of these 60,000 soldiers and horses must be Chen Bing who cannot move on the Qin-Chu border, if the Qin army really wants to help our country, then it can only use the 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Yecheng!"
"You're saying that Qin Jun can't help much?"
Looking at the distance on the map, the troops were transferred from Hangu Pass, and when the army ran to Yanmen Pass, it was estimated that Yanmen Pass had already been lost, and only 30,000 horses could be used, but what could 30,000 horses do even if they helped Zhao Guo?
The number of people is simply too small.
"No, the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Qin army may not be for our country at all!"
As soon as the man's words came out, there was immediately a lot of discussion in the hall, but his next words made the entire hall chaotic.
"King Qin may just want to find an opportunity for these 30,000 soldiers and horses to enter the hinterland of my Zhao Kingdom! When the time comes, when General Pang Xuan defeats the Huns, we will definitely be greatly injured, and at this time, there are 30,000 Qin troops in the hinterland of my Zhao State, and at the same time, if from now on, the Qin army in the Hangu Pass begins to transfer troops, and by that time it has almost reached the border of Qin and Zhao. ”
"Hmph, I know that this King Qin is not well-intentioned!"
The man's explanation was immediately supported by many.
"But there's no reason for him to let Qin and Zhao marry, right?"
"For a reason, of course! Only in this way will we completely let down our guard, he is just to paralyze us and paralyze the king! At that time, the world will know that Qin and Zhao are married, and Qin will take the initiative to send troops to help my Great Zhao defeat the Huns, but if he finds a reason to start a war after the war is over, then my Zhao State will become an ungrateful and treacherous party, and the whole world will not tolerate my Zhao State at that time! ”
"Qin State villain, Qin King villain!"
"Your Majesty, things should not be so pessimistic, as far as the minister knows, the King of Qin has to obey Li Fuzi many times, and Li Fuzi will definitely not do such a dirty thing, not to mention that the Yanhuang theory was originally put forward by Li Fuzi, and the minister thinks that maybe Qin Guo really just wants to help us get through the difficulties, or just just make a show, but it may not really be a black hand behind my Zhao State."
Just when public opinion was slipping more and more in a direction unfavorable to the Qin State, Guo Kai stood up.
"Guo Xiang is stumped to have other opinions? To pin on that Master Li's decision to influence the King of Qin? ”
"Guys, have you ever thought about something?"
"What's the matter? Guo Xiang might as well say it directly. ”
"A while ago, the State of Chu sent a secret envoy to join forces with my Zhao State to attack Qin! If the Qin State learned of this news, what would the King of Qin do? ”
Guo Kai suddenly mentioned the Zhao-Chu Alliance, which did not make the trip a while ago, and everyone was a little puzzled, this matter was extremely secretive in what the Chu State did, and the Qin people should not know about it, and at the same time, even if they knew, it had nothing to do with the Qin State sending troops to help the Zhao State, right?
"What does Guo Xiang mean is that the King of Qin is jealous of the Zhao-Chu Alliance, so he wants to take this opportunity to conclude an alliance with the widow and completely sever the connection between the widow and the Chu State?"
According to Guo Kai's reminder, Zhao Wangqian thought of a possibility.
"Nope! Look, Your Majesty! ”
Directly rejecting Zhao Wangqian's idea, Guo Kai walked in front of another larger map!
"The State of Qin has now formed a marriage with Han and Wei, if it forms an in-marriage with my Zhao State again, then the only threat that the State of Qin will face is the State of Chu! In other words, when the time comes, the Qin State can completely free up its hands to start a decisive battle with the Chu State without any worries! ”
"Chu State?"
Guo Kai's words directly opened everyone's minds, and now it seems that Guo Kai's opinion is more accurate and reliable, thinking that the Chu State still wanted to fight the Qin State before, and it is reasonable for the Qin State to want to clean up the Chu State now.
In order to prevent the Qin army from being cut off from behind by the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei when the Qin army attacked Chu, marriage obviously became the safest way!
This Qin State has married the princesses of the two countries one after another, and wants to marry the princess of Zhao State, and everything seems to be taken for granted.
"Then according to Guo Xiang's meaning, the widow really wants to find a princess to marry him? But the widow's eldest daughter has not yet been added, how do you ask the widow to find a princess to marry him? ”
Zhao Wangqian is obviously a little confused, if it is really a marriage, he doesn't have a suitable person to marry, he is the king of Qin, he can't find a minister's daughter or pull a people's daughter from the street, in that case, the king of Qin is still angry and directly sent troops to attack Zhao?
"Your Majesty, who said that this princess must be your daughter, don't you have a sister?"
