Chapter 82: The Oldest Proton of Zhao Kingdom

Pang Xuan and Zhao Sheng stayed in Wei for a long time, the King of Wei was very respectful to them, and often set up banquets to entertain them, but for the war in Zhao State, he never opened his mouth to ask, Zhao Sheng became more and more impatient, he did not come to Wei to eat and drink, he had more important things, but, Pang Xuan repeatedly told him, no need to say more, eat and drink well, as soon as I opened my mouth, you shook your head and sighed.

Zhao Sheng listened to Pang Xuan's words, shook his head and sighed, Zhao Guo is going to die.

Pang Xuan did not have any impatience, his life was quite good, enjoying the hospitality of the King of Wei, occasionally touring around with Longyangjun to enjoy the scenery of Wei, and even he invited Longyangjun to Chu many times, he said: After the fall of Zhao, there is only Korea left bordering Qin, Yan and Wei, Yan is an ally of Qin, South Korea is a small country without strength, Qin will definitely conquer Wei, it is very dangerous for you to stay, it is better to follow me to Chu and share the wealth, how about it?

Long Yangjun just smiled awkwardly at this and did not answer.

King Wei was still observing, but he still couldn't put his mind at ease.

Of course, this can't be blamed on King Wei, in this era of cunning of the princes, if you don't pay more attention, you will inevitably fall to the point of Zhao State. Mencius once said that there was no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period, because the righteous war was a crusade between the superiors against the subordinates, not a crusade between the princes of the same level.

In the past, the most honest and honest princes were the Qin State.

After the founding of the Qin State, he rushed to the northwest wholeheartedly, constantly conquering and assimilating one Hu tribe after another, the Qin State lacked land and manpower, and most of the old Qin people today were the mixed blood of the conquerors and the vanquished, because they absorbed the blood and culture of the barbarians, so they were noble pure-blood wizards in the Central Plains... No, the pure-blooded princes despised and recognized the identity of the "mudblood" of the Qin State.

At that time, the Qin State may have dealt too much with the barbarians, so he was simple-minded, just like a simple old farmer who came out of the northwest, they would even let go of the slaves on the battlefield, and would give grain and grass to rescue when the neighboring country encountered a disaster.

When a disaster occurred in Qin, the neighboring countries that had received his aid not only did not think about helping him, but were thinking about whether they should take this opportunity to attack Qin and ask him to send him a few cities?

So, the honest old peasant became angry, his actions became more and more treacherous, unscrupulous, interests first, when he became the new Qin State that is now untrustworthy and vicious, the princes angrily asked him: How did you become like this?

Old Qin turned his head sideways and put on a hideous face, "Isn't this what you taught?" Teacher? ”

The princes muttered to the barbarians and dispersed.

Pang Xuan finally asked to see the King of Wei, and the King of Wei immediately set up a banquet in the palace to entertain Pang Xuan and Zhao Sheng again, after the two were seated, the King of Wei said with a smile: "In today's banquet, please don't talk about national affairs, the widow drinks with you, and you have a good time!" After speaking, he observed the behavior of the two, Pang Xuan nodded with a smile, and said: "Just listen to your orders, after the banquet, I will say goodbye to you and go to Chu State." ”

Zhao Sheng shook his head and let out a long sigh.

King Wei's face was pale, and he asked with some annoyance: "How have the widows treated you these days?" ”

"The king treats his ministers as if they were his brothers."

"Then are you still happy in Wei Kingdom?"

"The minister is treated every day in the Wei Kingdom, and he is very happy."

"Then why do you still want to go to the Chu State? What do you think of staying in Wei to assist the widows? ”

Pang Xuan squinted his eyes and smiled, and said, "Your Excellency, you said, today's banquet does not talk about national affairs, come, drink!" ”

King Wei was so angry that he almost threw the wine cup in his hand on the old man's head, he looked at Long Yangjun on the side, Long Yangjun covered his mouth and smiled, instantly hooked away the soul of King Wei, King Wei hurriedly drank some wine to calm himself down. Long Yangjun smiled and said to Pang Xuan: "Shangjun loves you so much, and you have also received the favor of Shangjun, why don't you want to stay in Wei?" ”

Pang Xuan hesitated for a long time, and then said helplessly: "Shangjun, the minister is old, he just wants to spend his old age in peace, and he doesn't want to die under the sword of the Qin people. ”

"If the minister goes to the Wei State, when the Qin State invades the Wei State, the Wei State does not have as many soldiers as the Zhao State, and the famous generals are only Jin, and there are only three or four virtuous people, only the Qi State is close to the Qin State and hates the Wei State's neighbors, how long can the Wei State last? The minister still went to the Chu State, at least until the old minister died, he would not become a prisoner of the Qin State. ”

"That's why I'm going to Chu State, please don't stay any longer." , Pang Xuan said.

Zhao Sheng shook his head and let out a long sigh.

King Wei's face suddenly became gloomy, and throughout the banquet, he no longer spoke to Pang Xuan, and so did Pang Xuan, after the banquet, Pang Xuan said goodbye to King Wei, regardless of whether King Wei had words or not, he took Zhao Sheng into the carriage and left in the direction of Chu State, Zhao Sheng still complained on the side: "How can you do this?" At the banquet, King Wei was already tempted, why didn't you continue to persuade him? ”

Pang Xuan just smiled and didn't say anything, when the carriage just drove out of the girder, Long Yangjun rode a horse and led a group of knights to block in front of the carriage.

"Long Yang-kun? Do you finally want to go to Chu with me? ”

"Uh... The Emperor sent me to invite you back to discuss the matter of sending troops to the Qin State. ”

"Alas, how could Wei be an opponent of Qin? Don't stop me, I'm going to Chu as soon as possible. ”

"Please come back with me!" , Long Yangjun put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and a trace of anger appeared on his handsome face. Pang Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Alas, okay, I'll go back with you... However, I really don't want to participate in any Wei Qin war..."

Zhao Sheng sat in the carriage, looked at Pang Xuan's extremely reluctant look, shook his head, and sighed.

When they returned to the palace again, the face of the King of Wei was full of smiles, and he personally came out of the palace to greet him, Pang Xuan and Zhao Sheng hurriedly visited, and the King of Wei led them into the palace again, and when the two sat down, the King of Wei put on a humble posture and said in a consultative tone: "The widow is ready to form an alliance with the Zhao State and crusade against the Qin State, what do you think?" ”

Pang Xuan pondered for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "No." ”

"Huh??" , King Wei's eyes widened, and so did Zhao Sheng, looking at Pang Xuan in surprise.

Pang Xuan said: "The reason why Zhao is at war with Qin is to get Shangdang County to increase his strength, if you help Zhao defeat Qin, Zhao can get great benefits, but what can Wei get?" The war was not beneficial to the Wei state. When King Wei heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Then what do you have to teach the widow?" ”

"Shangdang was originally the land of Korea, South Korea's strength is weak, and they dare not compete with Qin, the people of South Korea are very sad about this, and they are even more disappointed in Han Jun, if you crusade against Qin in the name of helping Korea."

"First, this is a righteous war to help neighboring countries resist aggression, and everyone in the world can feel the benevolence and righteousness of Wei, second, the Korean people will be grateful for your kindness, maybe Korea can also submit to Wei and accept the protection of Wei, and third, you can call on the princes of the world to crusade against the unrighteous actions of Qin and increase the prestige of Wei." , Pang Xuan stroked his beard and said indifferently.

King Wei was overjoyed, hurriedly walked down, came to Pang Xuan's side, took his hand, and said seriously: "Thank you for your teachings." ”

Then he asked: "But the widow is worried that Zhao Guo will not thank Wei for his kindness, and after defeating Qin State, he will attack Wei State, what do you think, sir?" The King of Wei frowned, it seems that this is the truth, among the princes today, there is no such thing as a thankful retribution, he sent an army to help Zhao today, and Zhao took advantage of the situation to leave Wei's army behind after repelling Qin, which is not impossible.

Pang Xuan laughed and said, "What you said makes a lot of sense... Look! Pang Xuan pointed at Zhao Sheng, King Wei also turned his head and looked at Zhao Sheng, Pang Xuan said: "Pingyuan Jun is the clan of Zhao State, and he is very prestigious in Zhao State, you can leave him as a proton, in this way, if Zhao State makes a move, you will kill Pingyuan Jun, and King Zhao will not dare to attack Wei State on the charge of killing Pingyuan Jun." ”

"Okay!" , King Wei clapped his hands and shouted.

Zhao Sheng was about to subconsciously shake his head, but suddenly reacted, looking at Pang Xuan with a blank expression, his expression sluggish.

What???

The old man is almost in the ground!! What's proton??
