Zheng Zhu was scared.

He was ready to die halfway through.

Zhao sent five people, Zheng Zhu went to Qin, Zhao Yu went to Wei, Zhao Bao's doorman Pingyang did not go to Chu, the door bus did not harm to Yan, and the doorman Chen said to go to Qi. Lou Chang persuaded King Zhao to negotiate peace with Qin, but Yu Qing persuaded King Zhao to ask for help from other countries, and as a result, King Zhao adopted the strategy of two people at the same time, however, Zheng Zhu felt that Shangjun should be more concerned about his entry into Qin.

His situation was the most dangerous of all the envoys. Not only because of the bad relationship between Qin and Zhao, but more importantly, most of his journey is in the area where Qin and Zhao are at war, and after passing here, it is obvious that he will suffer from the impact of war, not to mention that he also swore with his life that he would complete the major event of peace between Qin and Zhao, so when he went out, Zheng Zhu solemnly said goodbye to his parents, kissed the toddler, and told his wife at home before he got into the carriage and put life and death aside.

The carriage left Handan slowly, such a speed is obviously not good, Zheng Zhu promised Shangjun, he must complete his mission, thinking of this, he hurriedly asked the driver to speed up, he wants to rush desperately, he must arrive at Qin as soon as possible, persuade the king of Qin, let him end this war.

Starting from Handan, you have to pass through Mafu Mountain, pass through Wu'an, go through She, and go to Shangdang County, which is now in the hands of the Qin people, of course, it is also the most dangerous area now.

The rider also knew Zheng Zhu's eager mood, so he kept waving the long whip in his hand, the horse was in pain, and he ran faster and faster, Zheng Zhu held the wooden edge tightly with both hands, and as the horse galloped, the carriage also shook more and more, and the wheels were constantly moaning, Zheng Zhu never opened his mouth to persuade the driver to slow down, so he galloped all the way, even if he was thrown away, he didn't speak.

When the driver was about to rest, he found that Zheng Zhu was not in the carriage. The driver was very scared, and hurriedly drove the carriage back, and finally, in the grass beside the road, he found Zheng Zhu who was thrown out at some point, Zheng Zhu was rubbing his forehead, and the driver was about to get out of the car and ask him to plead guilty, but Zheng Zhu laughed loudly, and when he heard Zheng Zhu's laughter, the driver couldn't help laughing.

It took a short time for the two to come to Mafu.

Zheng Zhu was reluctant to stay, but the horse really couldn't run, so Zheng Zhu had to rest here for one night. Zhao Qu, the supervisor of Mafu Township, is a conscientious and capable official, he warmly entertained Zheng Zhu, heard his mission, and admired Chen Zan, Zheng Zhu was very happy, after a full meal, he remembered something, and said: "I heard that there is a young talent in Zhao State, that is, the son of Ma Fujun, I don't know if you can take me to visit him?" ”

The prison gate led Zheng Zhu to the outside of Zhao Kuo's courtyard.

At this time, Zhao Kuo was about to rest, and after Di came in to say goodbye, Zhao Kuo reluctantly opened the door and personally greeted the envoy from Handan. Zheng Zhu looked at the young man in front of him, his eyes lit up, this young man was tall and handsome, with a good demeanor, and indeed a virtuous and virtuous person, Zheng Zhu didn't dare to be rude, and after the two met, they sat down in the courtyard.

"When I was in Handan, I heard about Ma Fuzi's good name, and this time I want to go to Qin State to negotiate peace, I don't know if Ma Fuzi has any suggestions?" , Zheng Zhu asked bluntly.

When Zhao Kuo heard this, he was also a little strange in his heart, he didn't remember that Zhao Guo and Qin State negotiated peace? Could it be that his arrival has had any impact on history? Zhao Kuo thought carefully for a long time before he said: "Qin and Zhao are both big countries with vast territory and many household registrations, but the countries in the world are not only Qin and Zhao, Qin and Zhao are fighting each other, it will definitely be a lose-lose outcome, and it will not be these two countries that will benefit in the end, I hope you can go to Qin this time and tell King Qin these truths." ”

When Zheng Zhu heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and said: "Ma Fuzi is both civil and military, he is a rare talent, if this matter goes well, I will definitely recommend you to King Zhao." ”

Zhao Kuo didn't say much this time, if Qin Guo could negotiate peace with Zhao Guo and no longer fight, it didn't matter if Zheng Zhuju didn't recommend himself.

The two talked all night, and they didn't rest, Zhao Kuo really didn't understand, Zheng Zhu was not young, why wasn't he sleepy all night? Out of respect for the guests, Zhao Kuo also didn't close his eyes all night, on this page, Zheng Zhu was chatting with him about the war between Zhao and Qin, from his mouth, Zhao Kuo also knew a lot of things, he originally thought that before King Zhao did not replace himself, Lian Po and Bai Qi were tied.

But he didn't expect that the current general of the Qin State was not Bai Qi at all, but a man named Wang Ji, Zhao Kuo had never heard of this person in his previous life, could this person have anything to do with Wang Qian? What surprised Zhao Kuo even more was that Lian Po failed to beat this "nobody", Lian Po lost again and again, constantly losing ground and losing generals, and Zhao Guo was forced to retreat dozens of miles.

That's not right, isn't General Lian Po very capable of fighting?

Zhao Kuo frowned, and also had the same idea as King Zhao, why couldn't Lian Po beat Wang Di?

The old man Zheng Zhu left the horse suit in a hurry, and before leaving, he glanced in the direction of Handan, and said to Zhao Kuo: "If things don't go well, I will crash and die in Hangu Pass, and at that time, please be the general of Zhao State, take Zhao State's car, crusade against Qin State, please dig up a tile stone on Hangu Pass for me, and bury me with me." ”

Zhao Kuo was silent for a long time, until the old man's car disappeared without a trace, and then turned around and entered the room.

After more than ten days of rushing like this, when Zheng Zhu came to Shangdang County, he heard an amazing news from the mouths of the local officials, Qin stopped attacking Zhao State, and even retreated a lot, giving up some captured Zhao areas, Zheng Zhu was overjoyed, this old man danced happily, laughed out of shape, he sensed that the Qin people had a tendency to negotiate peace, and he did not stop to rest, but rushed directly to the Tunliu occupied by the Qin people.

When the driver drove the carriage and came to the city of Tunliu, Zheng Zhu's face was also a little moved, outside the city, there were a lot of soldiers of the Qin State, these soldiers had solemn faces, straight as spears, and looked at Zheng Zhu one by one, their eyes were blazing, and they were all staring at their heads.

Zheng Zhu was scared.

He is not afraid of death, he is afraid of these elites of the Qin State, on the way to the arrival, he also saw a lot of soldiers of the Zhao State, those soldiers stopped him and asked when he could go home, most of them were lonely and sad, and on the Qin people on the opposite side, they couldn't see these at all, they seemed to be more eager for war than their generals, I heard that when Wang Yi asked the soldiers to retreat, the Qin people were very reluctant.

Zheng Zhu looked at these soldiers, and felt that negotiating peace was a good suggestion, and he felt that even if reinforcements were invited from various countries, they might not be able to defeat the Qin people. Maybe these Qin people will be even happier when they see those reinforcements, great, and tens of thousands of more military merits!

General Qin is a young man, his skin is a little dark, and his smile is very gentle, but Zheng Zhu does not dare to underestimate him, this young man's title is not low, he knows that the nobles of Qin State all started by military merits, this young man who looks kind, the short sword on his waist does not know how many people's heads have been taken, the young man said respectfully: "Mengwu to meet Zhao Envoy, the king has an order, if we can't be rude to Zhao Envoy, please follow me to rest in the city." ”

Zheng Zhu was stunned for a moment and agreed to him.

Meng Wu took him into the city, and the Qin people who were practicing could be seen everywhere in the city, and the shouting of killing was deafening, Zheng Zhu's face was ordinary, and he turned a blind eye, Meng Wu took him to a courtyard and said: "Our general is not in good health, so he specially ordered me to entertain you, please rest for a day, and then set off for Xianyang, the king has sent a marquis to meet you, and he is on the way." ”

"How can the old man let Ying Hou come and greet him personally?" , Zheng Zhu is finally no longer as calm as before.

Meng Wu didn't say anything, arranged Zheng Zhu, and left here.

Zheng Zhu stayed here for one night, and no one came to embarrass him, of course, Wang Ji did not come to see him, and the next day, Qin people escorted him towards Xianyang. He didn't know that at this moment, Wang Di was in the courtyard not far away, jumping like thunder, Wang Di was not tall, but his temper was very big, he shouted: "What does Ying Hou want to do?" It was he who said that he could conquer Zhao State, but now he wants us to retreat, and he has to treat the old man of Zhao State like this! ”

"General, Ying Hou must also have his reasons, and it is also to break the Zhao State." , Meng Wu on the side persuaded in a low voice.

"It is enough for him to advise the king, so why should he participate in the war? How difficult is it to defeat Zhao Guoneng? Let Wu Anjun help me, I can break Handan in four months! Wang Ju said angrily, but he was helpless against Fan Ju, King Qin was very fond of Fan Ju, Wu Anjun still wanted to avoid Fan Ju's edge, what could he do?

"Hmph, if it doesn't work out, I will definitely find Wu Anjun and meet the king with him, so that Ying Hou can no longer point fingers at us in the war."

Meng Wu smiled bitterly and hurriedly said: "Don't say such things general, you should wait for him.... Even if he encounters a greeting on the road, he will not forget it, and he will take revenge for a small grudge like a glare, he is really not a person who can be easily angered. ”
