Mafu Township has now undergone a detailed administrative division, and within Mafu Township, it is divided into six li, which are named after the local landmarks, Dasangli (there is a big mulberry tree), Xiaoquli (there is a small stream), Shili (there is a boulder), Taoli, Xueli, and Mafu Junli. And Zhao Kuo lived in the newly born Mafu Jun, and he sat in the middle of the courtyard, surrounded by his guests and disciples.

The news of Wei Wuji's rebellion soon spread throughout the Zhao Kingdom, and Di was the first to bring the news back to Mafu Township.

Zhao Kuo had to temporarily take a break from the busy wedding and gather everyone to discuss. The guests and disciples, with different expressions, as the number one think tank under Zhao Kuo, Di was the first to express his opinion, he said loudly: I heard that the officials in various places did not kill the people, nor did they plunder the property, they want to follow Xinling Jun and elect you as the king of Zhao, you can take advantage of the fact that the king of Zhao is defenseless, gather the people of Mafu villagers to attack Handan, I can be the first to climb the city of Handan for you!

As soon as Di opened his mouth like this, he frightened everyone a lot, and Li Yu hurriedly reprimanded: "Please don't talk nonsense here." Di Leng snorted, just looked at Zhao Kuo, and he continued: "I heard you often tell your disciples that no one can go against the will of the people, and the wish of the people today is for you to be the king, how can you go against it?" ”

Zhao Kuo shook his head and said seriously: "This is not the people's wish, this is the trick of the thief, please don't say such things again." ”

Di didn't continue, Li Yu stood up and said seriously: "This is definitely not something that Xinlingjun can do, Xinlingjun is an upright person, and Shangjun treats him very well, he will definitely not be able to behave worthy of King Zhao... Since the implementation of the law, the new officials have suffered a lot of humiliation, I think? Today's rebellion has nothing to do with Xinlingjun, it must be a rebellion formed spontaneously by these unwilling new officials..."

"Could you please meet with him immediately and tell him the reason for these things? lest the lord be angry with the king of Xinling, and you. ”

Zhao Kuo looked at him? Didn't speak, he was even Wei Wuji? If it is said that Wei Wuji rebelled, or wanted to support himself as king, Zhao Kuo didn't believe it? The army led by Wei Wuji's henchmen on the front line is heading towards Handan? There are officials personally selected by Wei Wuji in various parts of Zhao State who are causing chaos.... Suddenly? Han Fei, who was sitting in Zhao Kuo, stood up, and he said seriously; "No.. Wrong.. Not so. ”

Li Yu was stunned? Look at him in amazement.

Han Fei continued: "I.. I went to look through the lieutenant's records, and I found out... The leader of the rebellion, the leader of the army. And those people on the ground? Almost all of them participated in the assessment at the same time, and actively supported the change of the law, most of them couldn't find out where they came from, and they didn't have any friends, or even family members... They.. It's as if they've been stuffed in? Participating in the assessment with a special mission..."

"Shinling-kun's character? It's just that I trust my friends too much... These people approached Xinlingjun with bad intentions, because Xinlingjun's changes were rubbed, so after getting the support of these people, Xinlingjun... Jun didn't hesitate, so he reused them, maybe Xinlingjun hoped to attract more people by paying attention to them. However, these people are spies, and they are all spies. ”

Han Fei said seriously: "The rebellion seems to be huge, but in fact, the only thing that really threatens is the army of less than six or seven thousand people in front, and there are more than 20,000 elite garrisons in Handan... There is no need to worry, as for the locality, they are just making a huge noise and preaching everywhere, in fact, the total number of these troublemakers is less than 10,000, and many more of them are people who do not know the truth of the matter and are coerced in. ”

"With these people, can you attack Handan? Can you kill Pingyang-kun and these people? ”

"Therefore, the purpose of their rebellion is not to bring about a change of law, but to... Framed Xin Lingjun. Han Fei looked at the people around him and said: "On the bright side, these people are all Xinlingjun's henchmen, otherwise they were recommended by Xinlingjun, they are making trouble, how can Xinlingjun not be implicated?" The rebellion will definitely fail, and Xinlingjun will definitely be held accountable. ”

"The only people in the world who hate Xinling Jun the most are the nobles in the country and the Qin State."

"But those nobles in the country, like Pingyang Jun, Chang'an Jun and others, I don't think they have such a strategy and such strength, this must be arranged by the Qin people, that is, to drive Xinlingjun out of Zhao State, and not let him have the opportunity to help Zhao State resist the Qin people."

Han Fei analyzed this, everyone nodded, and their eyes at Han Fei gradually became a little different, I thought that this guy was just a person who could read, but I didn't expect it... After Han Fei finished saying this, he looked at Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo frowned, the thoughts in his heart were similar to Han Fei's, he also felt that someone was deliberately framing Xin Lingjun, Xin Lingjun had offended too many people in order to implement the law change, and accepted many people of unknown origin to serve as officials.

Because of the promotion criteria for changing the law, meritocracy, as long as there is a talented person, no matter where he comes from, he can come to serve as an official without being recommended... Zhao Kuo didn't expect that this would actually become a breakthrough point, causing many thieves with malicious intentions to get in, and even openly rebelled under the banner of Xinling Jun. Zhao Kuo's face became even more unkind, he looked at Han Fei and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”

Han Fei said with a smile: "The best way is for you to take Pingyangjun, go out of the city to defeat these thieves, quell the rebellion, find out the instigator behind the scenes, and let Pingyangjun prove it for Xinlingjun, in this way, knowing the reason for the matter, and then you will be the guarantor, and Shangjun will not punish Xinlingjun again." ”

Everyone agreed with Han Fei's suggestion, only Li Yu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he still smiled at Han Fei and said, "Yes." Zhao Kuo stood up and said seriously: "Okay, just do what you say." ”

......

And at this moment, in Pingyang Jun's mansion, Chang Anjun was kneeling in front of Zhao Bao.

Zhao Bao wandered back and forth angrily, his face was red, his eyes were wide, he was about to breathe fire, he took a few steps, looked at Chang Anjun suddenly, and shouted, "What did I say? I wouldn't have allowed you to do this in the first place, so it's better for you to frame Wei Wuji while he was at war with the Qin people?! Are you trying to bring the Kingdom of Zhao to its perdition?! He roared, and grabbed Chang Anjun's neck again.

Chang Anjun was a little out of breath when he was pinched, and hurriedly defended: "Uncle, I heard that Wei Wuji has defeated the Qin people, and soon, he will return to Handan, if he defeats Bai Qi and returns to Handan with such merits, what chance do we have?" Now that he is not in Zhao State, it is difficult to justify, it is the best opportunity! Zhao Bao gritted his teeth, clenched his fists several times, and put it down several times in front of Chang Anjun's face.

"Where did you hear that Wei Wuji defeated Bai Qi? Yes? If you force Wei Wuji to rebel, he will directly surrender to the Qin people with his army... You.. You're going to destroy the Zhao Kingdom! ”

Zhao Bao jumped up, and the whole person was a little speechless.

"How could Zhao's army follow him and surrender to the Qin people? It's impossible. Chang'anjun said stubbornly, he stood up and said, "Anyway, I have already done it, if you are angry, kill me." ”

"You think I wouldn't dare?" , Zhao Bao pulled out his short sword, Chang Anjun was frightened and took a few steps back, only then he straightened his neck and shouted: "Then you cut!" Cut me! Zhao Bao dropped the short sword, sat on the ground, held his head in both hands, closed his eyes, gasped for breath, looked at Zhao Bao who was trembling with anger, Chang Anjun looked at him cautiously, and took a few steps closer, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

"No... I want to explain this matter to Shang Jun and ask him to pardon Wei Wuji's crimes, at least, not to hurt Wei Wuji's family guests, and not to force him to rebel. Zhao Bao suddenly spoke, Chang'an Jun was a little anxious, he said: "That uncle might as well kill me directly here, not to mention that Wei Wuji has been against you all the time, and he won't pay attention to your kindness at all, even if Shangjun knows that I did all this, he won't forgive me!" ”

"It's all you...", Zhao Bao reacted suddenly, he raised his head, looked at Chang Anjun in surprise, he suddenly got up, and quickly came to Chang Anjun's face, his face was hideous, his nose was almost on Chang Anjun's forehead, he was taller than Chang Anjun, he asked: "I didn't agree to this matter, and my doorman won't let you drive it, how did you do it alone?" ”

Chang Anjun took a step back, he didn't like the feeling of being looked down on, he said proudly: "The rewards you and the Shangjun gave me, I used to make friends with heroes, and now I have more than thirty guests around me, some of them came to serve you, and some were expelled by you, I gathered them together for my own use, and my current strength may not be weaker than yours." ”

"You? Hehe...", Zhao Bao sneered, he shook his head, thought seriously for a moment, and then asked, "You just said that you heard that Wei Wuji defeated Bai Qi, where did you know this news?" ”

"It was my doorman who told me that he was very good at raising horses..."

Zhao Bao's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said, "Go and call that bundle to me." ”

The young man who called the bundle knelt tremblingly in front of Zhao Bao, Zhao Leopard's face was gloomy, staring at him deadly, as if he wanted to see something from his face, although Chang Anjun didn't understand why his uncle wanted to see his guest, but he still didn't want his uncle to be embarrassed, Shu was the best at raising horses, and he could always give him good proposals on weekdays, for example, before, he persuaded himself that he couldn't let go of those people who dared to ask him for compensation.

also said that he wanted to solve those people for himself, because those people insulted him, and after some time, sure enough, all those people disappeared, Dong Chengzi's fat dolphin didn't find evidence, things were done so beautifully, of course Chang Anjun liked this loyal doorman very much. Shu was very frightened at the moment, kneeling in front of them, waiting for their orders.

"Where did you hear that Wei Wuji was going to defeat the Qin people?"

"Before, I had a quarrel with Wei Wuji's disciple who was called Lu Su, because of the change of the law, it was he who said that Wei Wuji was about to defeat Bai Qi and return to Zhao and kill us all, many people heard it...", Shu said nervously, Zhao Bao squinted his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Where are you from?" ”

"I'm from Wusui..."

"Bastard!! I sent someone to Wusui to check, and there is no one like you at all!! Zhao Bao suddenly stood up, pulled out the short sword, stepped forward and kicked the bundle over, stepped on the chest of the bundle, the short sword was aimed at his neck, Chang'an Jun was stunned, he looked at his uncle in surprise, and then looked at the bundle, his face became ugly, the bundle looked at Zhao Leopard in horror, and cried and said: "How is this possible?" The person you sent must not have found out, I am from Wusui, and the second house on the left side of the east gate of Wusui is my home..."

Shu hurriedly explained, and cried again: "You can send someone to investigate..."

Seeing Shu's appearance, Zhao Bao took away his feet and said to Shu unhappily: "Go back!" ”

Shu Cheng got up in fear, bowed to the two, and then walked towards the door.

"Archery!" , Zhao Bao suddenly shouted in Qin.

Shu was stunned for a moment, turned around, and asked blankly, "What did you say?" ”

"It's nothing, you go."

Shu walked out of Pingyang Jun's mansion at this time, and Chang'an Jun walked to Zhao Bao's side with some curiosity, and asked, "When will you send someone to Wusui to inquire about his situation?" Zhao Bao looked at him, sighed, and said, "I'm just testing him." Chang'an Jun suddenly realized, and then said with a smile: "I know that he is reliable, you see, my guests, all are reliable." ”

Zhao Bao shook his head and said to him: "I don't know if he is loyal or traitorous, so kill him after you go back, don't keep him anymore." ”

"Why?!" , Chang Anjun jumped up, this is a great sage who raises horses.

"Huh?" , Zhao Bao stared at him unhappily, under this stern gaze, Chang Anjun still gave in, he lowered his head, and said, "I know." ”

Chang Anjun walked out of his uncle's mansion a little lonely, his face was full of sorrow, got into the carriage, and soon, he returned to his house, in the courtyard outside his city, Shu was brushing the horse, the horse was a little uneasy, lowered his head, ate the tender grass, and let the beam brush himself clean, seeing Chang'an Jun who came back, Shu was about to put down the things in his hand to meet him, Chang Anjun waved his hand casually, let him continue to work.

Shu continued to brush, and Chang Anjun stood behind him.

Chang Anjun looked at him, then at the sky, and even stepped forward to pat the horse's back.

"Flutter~~"

The short sword suddenly pierced Shu's back, stabbing directly from the back all the way to the chest, and the tip of the sword even peeked out of the chest.

Shu widened his eyes, looked at the horse in front of him blankly, wanted to turn back, but couldn't turn back, the corners of his mouth overflowed blood, when the short sword was pulled back, he fell down weakly, Chang Anjun put away the short sword, no longer looked at him, continued to look at the horse in front of him, the horse was stained with some blood, which made him a little unhappy, and quickly brushed up.
