Chapter 159: Zhao Kuo and the Assassin

Looking at the doorman in front of him who was pressed to the ground, Zhao Kuo frowned.

Di breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and kicked the man's back, the assassin screamed in pain, Di wanted to fight again, Zhao Kuo stopped him, Zhao Kuo looked at the assassin in front of him, and asked, "Why do you want to kill me?" The assassin raised his head and looked at Zhao Kuo viciously, at this moment, he had already changed into a Qin accent, and said: "I am ordered by the king to kill you, this is my mission." ”

And hearing his words, the few Qin students who held him down immediately became anxious, and shouted angrily: "Don't talk nonsense here, the king will never send someone to kill the teacher!" A Qin man directly grabbed his hair, punched him in the face, and asked angrily: "Who are you?!" The assassin stared at them and angrily cursed, "Traitor! ”

"Heh, Qin can't speak well, and dare to say that he is an assassin of the Qin State?" The students angrily aimed their daggers at his neck, and the assassin was not afraid, he stared at them angrily.

Zhao Kuo looked at him, sighed, and said: "You take the corpses of these two people, go back and tell King Yan, I heard that in the winter of this year, many people in Yan Kingdom froze to death, I know a way, use adobe to make a couch, set up a stove in the house, and the smoke produced by the stove can be discharged to the outside of the house through the connected hollow column, and set a hole under the couch to communicate with the hollow pillar... Even if it is not connected, the stove and the house can also make the house much warmer... Later you go to a craftsman, who is called Du, and where you can see the half-finished product..."

"The reason why we don't set the stove in the house is because of the smoke, as long as there is a way to exhaust the smoke outside the house, it can keep out the cold, but we must remember not to leak smoke, otherwise this will lead to poisoning and death of the people...", Zhao Kuo said seriously, but the assassin was stunned, he looked at Zhao Kuo in front of him who was telling him in detail about the way to protect against the cold, opened his mouth wide, and couldn't speak for a long time.

"Di, please take him to Du, he's doing what I said... If it can succeed, it will be able to save a lot of people...", Zhao Kuo instructed Di, Di looked at him helplessly, so he had to bend down, grab the assassin tightly, pull him up, and take him away, during this time, the assassin was confused, numb by Dila, and after he left, Zhao Kuo looked at his students.

The students were all looking at Zhao Kuo dumbfounded at the moment, and they were speechless one by one.

"What's wrong with you?" , Zhao Kuo asked suspiciously.

"Teacher... He's here to kill you... You also concluded that this was the order of King Yan... How can you tell him about this... Let him take it back to Yan Kingdom? It was Uncle Le who spoke, Uncle Le recognized the identity of this person early on, because he was a Yan person, and the assassin was not good at hiding, and he spoke Qin with a little Liaodong accent, Uncle Le had lived in Yan for twenty years, how could he not hear it?

It's just that he can't understand Zhao Kuo's behavior.

Zhao Kuo shook his head and said: "If he hurts the second and third sons, I will definitely execute him, but he didn't, the king of Yan wants to kill me and send assassins to take my life, I regard him as an enemy, but I don't regard the people of Yan as an enemy, the winter of Yan is very cold, and the people are seriously injured and injured, this is what I don't want to see, I just said to the second and third sons, all the countries are one, I treat everyone as relatives, then I help my relatives, is this not right?" ”

The students were speechless, and their expressions were slightly sluggish.

Di escorted the assassin to Du's residence, Du, who couldn't see clearly, smiled and invited them to dinner, Di still refused, after telling him Zhao Kuo's words, Du happily pulled the assassin, took him into the room, and showed him the clay kang he made, which was the name given by Ma Fujun, sure enough, the inner room was much warmer, sitting on the bed, even more so, Du explained the method of making it to the assassin...

The assassin stared at the stove in front of him, then suddenly collapsed on the ground, slapped his face with both hands, and began to cry.

Du watched the assassin cry in surprise, hurriedly stepped forward, groped according to the cry, and finally found his position, grabbed his shoulder with his hand, and said, "Don't be sad, do you also have relatives who have been frozen to death?" I used to adopt a lot of children, and two of them just didn't survive the winter, and I put all my clothes on them... But don't be sad anymore, I think this method can save a lot of people, and no one will suffer such a disaster again, we should be happy..."

The assassin looked up, looked at Di, and said, "I want to see Ma Fujun." ”

Knowing that the assassin was coming to see him, Zhao Kuo asked Di to bring him to him, and Di, along with a few other guests, gathered around the assassin and escorted him here again, and the assassin just saw Zhao Kuo, so he knelt down in front of him, and he said, "I was sent by the king of Yan to assassinate you... Please forgive me for my sins, I...", he was so speechless that he didn't dare to raise his head again.

So, he told Zhao Kuo all the news that King Yan had summoned them, how to arrange them, and how many people had been arranged.

Zhao Kuo didn't say a word, was silent for a long time, and then said: "I don't blame you, you can't fail to obey King Yan's orders, but, I hope, if King Yan orders you to kill innocent people again, please don't go to execution... Take the remains of your comrades with you and go back to your life. Di was very angry, and he felt that for such a person, he should be hung up and placed at the door of the horse suit, so that the other assassins would not dare to have the idea of murdering the horse suit.

And Zhao Kuo is also leaving, this time he is going to South Korea, the students are not willing to stay, they want to follow Ma Fujun's side, even if Ma Fujun tells them that he has no time to teach them, they are not willing to stay, because they find that it doesn't matter if Zhao Kuo says it or not, what matters is how he does it, one of his behaviors, can make them understand the truth that they haven't understood for decades.

Zhao Kuo once told them that if you treat others with benevolence and righteousness, others will repay your kindness with benevolence and righteousness, but everyone did not think so, until they saw Zhao Kuo's act of forgiving the assassin with their own eyes. Zhao Kuo had no choice but to take them with him, and his disciples were even more reluctant to stay, especially Li Yu, Zhao Kuo thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to leave Wang Fan and Ming and let them take charge of things here.

Wang Fan didn't complain, he knew that someone had to leave the horse clothes, and he asked to stay here, he knew that he couldn't help Zhao Kuo on the battlefield, and if he stayed in the horse clothes, he could do more, he wanted to help Zhao Kuo, sell the method of making clay kang to the nobles, and teach the people.

Zhao Kuo arranged these, and went to accompany his mother, for Zhao's mother, he felt a little guilty, these days, he really can't spare time to accompany his mother, but, Zhao's mother doesn't care, on the contrary, he is very happy about Zhao Kuo's behavior, after hearing the story of Zhao Kuo and the assassin, Zhao's mother told him seriously, just by virtue of this matter, you will definitely be praised by future generations.

Zhao Kuo held the little guy in his arms and coiled him, but the little guy now has long hair, coiled up without the feeling he once had, by Zhao's mother's side, the little guy slept when he was full, and the whole person had begun to get blessed, which made Zhao Kuo a little worried, however, he should have grown up like this, and he didn't get fat when he grew up, so this emperor through the ages... Probably not, right?

When the elderly take care of their children, they will probably always feel that the children are not full, and they always feed the children in vain.

Zhao Kuo still left the horse service, when he left, the doormen followed the front and back, and the students followed around, which can be described as a mighty and mighty, Zhao Kuo sat in the carriage, still thinking about Han Fei's words, Han Fei has three ways to save the world, but these three, Zhao Kuo can only use the villain's method, whether it is to join Qin, or to be the king of Zhao himself, it seems that it is not a good choice, King Zhao is also good to him, he is unwilling to do things that hurt King Zhao.

What if it is to assist Zhao Guo? Will it cause a strong confrontation between the two and seriously delay the time for reunification? Will more soldiers be killed or wounded, and will cause more harm? Zhao Kuo always felt very confused, he saved hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Zhao Guo who were about to be killed, but will his actions cause millions of people to be killed in the future? The only one with the strongest national strength, who can completely unify and stop the war, seems to be the Qin State... However, could he really let the Qin State slaughter the people of other countries because of the idea of stopping the war?

If you want to change the system of the Qin State, what kind of system can replace the military merit system? Why did he change the Qin State? Can I make the world a better place?

Zhao Kuo finally experienced the pain of Xunzi, the pain of an unattainable dream, when the carriage stopped and everyone rested, Zhao Kuo silently took out the bamboo slip, which was the letter given to him by the King of Qin, picked up the pen and ink, Zhao Kuo wrote, "I heard that Bai Qi and Korea killed people, Qin Fa calculated military merits by head, encouraged soldiers to kill enemies, rewarded the people of other countries, and rewarded meritorious soldiers as retainers..."

"Can we take the captives as a military merit and stop slaughtering the captives, can we treat the people of the Seven Kingdoms as their own people, the king wants to be the king of the world, how can he use the Qin State to enslave the six countries? If the people live better under your rule, there will be no more people to resist your army, otherwise, even if the world is pacified, rebellions will inevitably arise, and the world will not be long in the world..."

"The law of the Qin State is very cruel, the role of the law should not only facilitate your rule, but also protect the lives of the people, restrain power, whether it is your minister, or yourself, should also be restricted by the law, I say this, it is not to be unfavorable to you, if you do not restrict the king's misdeeds, if there are mediocre and cruel people among your heirs, won't it ruin the accumulation of the Qin State for many years?"

Xunzi said: The king is the boat, and the Shuren is the water. Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat... Please don't blindly collect taxes, keep the people busy with servitude, the people are the foundation of the country, only the people's lives are stable, your rule can be stable... You are a king, and all your people are your people, and you should treat them equally..."

Zhao Kuo's answer is written very casually, it can be said that there is almost no thought, what comes to mind, what is written, he writes faster and faster, probably his thoughts and feelings in these days are written on this dialogue, as if he is talking to a friend, there is no respect for a king, there is no hostility to the enemy, only hard persuasion, Zhao Kuo quickly finished writing this dialogue.

Putting down the pen, Zhao Kuo didn't know what the use of these things he had written, but it was better than doing nothing.

He called Han Fei over and handed him the bamboo slip in his hand, Han Fei was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Old.. Old.. Teacher, do you need me to help you revise it? It's not that Han Fei looks down on Zhao Kuo, it's just that the answer written by Zhao Kuo has no format, no honorifics, the sentences are not smooth, and there are even typos, but Zhao Kuo shook his head, he said: "That's it, I'll go to the school later, please give this answer to Lou Shu in Handan..."

Han Fei agreed to him.

In the school yard outside Handan, the elites guarding Handan have already gathered here, and Zhao Kuo does not need to reorganize it. Among them, there are many acquaintances, all of whom were those young nobles who accompanied Zhao Kuo when they fought against Yan State, at this time, they were all officers in this elite army, when Zhao Kuo came, these soldiers were very excited, and the kind of fanaticism in their eyes was a little frightened by the disciples who followed Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo asked them to rest for a day and set off tomorrow, and summoned the generals to discuss the road to send troops.

Wait until Zhao Kuo has done this, then the disciple stepped forward to visit, this disciple is from the Qin State, called Yang Duanhe, it is him, he killed two assassins, showing his bravery, it is Di, and he also likes his skills, and he tried it, and Yang Duanhe was pounced on without difficulty, however, Di still praised him, Di said that he was only slightly stronger than him at his age.

His figure is the tallest, and the age is the youngest, he doesn't like words on weekdays, and the rest of the Qin students faintly take him as the head, it is said that he is not low, the original Yang State was destroyed by the Jin State, and the Yang nobles fled to the northwest, this Yang Duanhe's ancestor seems to be the great nobleman of the Yang State at the beginning, and the ancestors have served in the Qin Palace for several generations, but these people are relatively mediocre and not too famous sages.

He asked: "The soldiers of the Qin State are very happy to hear the news of the war, this is because they know that they can get military merits to improve their titles, but why are the soldiers of the Zhao State so excited after learning the news of the war?" ”

ps: It's so tiring to write!! There are wooden tickets and tickets?!
