Chapter 9 Where to Send
"It hurts you again! It hurts you again! ”
As soon as Zhao Kuo walked out of the door, he saw Di frantically banging his head against the mulberry tree, every time he hit, it made the mulberry leaves fly, and a lot of them had accumulated on the ground, Zhao Kuo was frightened, what is the situation, he was about to step forward, fortunately stopped him, fortunately said helplessly: "Shaojun, don't panic, Di is such a person, he drank with his friends yesterday, and today he has an unbearable headache, and in a fit of anger, he will hit the tree with his head." ”
Zhao Kuo's eyes widened and asked, "Is he like this on weekdays?" ”
Xing nodded, "He is irritable, and once because he felt that his nose was always itchy, he would beat his nose to bleed with one punch.... Shaojun didn't know, when he first came to Zhao Kingdom, many people asked him to be a guest, but he talked too much, and he talked endlessly, and those people didn't want to, so let him go to herd sheep and horses, he was good at these things, but if those sheep didn't listen to him, or ran around..."
"What will happen to him?"
"He punched and kicked those sheep, I saw him wrestling with a donkey, pressing and beating the old donkey, even horses and cows, he would not let go, annoyed him, he would definitely fight, and he didn't care if his fists bleed, and later, whether it was sheep, cows, or horses, they were also afraid of him, and the screaming sheep didn't dare to say anything when they saw Di coming, but dared to lower their heads and eat grass."
Zhao Kuo grew his mouth, what kind of people are these doormen.
"Later, not only those beasts, but also people were afraid of him, and no one dared to use him anymore."
Good guy, Zhao Kuo has heard that Zhang Liao's prestige can make crying children dare not speak out, but he didn't expect that there is a fierce man under his command whose prestige can make cattle and sheep silent, isn't this a madman? Zhao Kuo was a little scared at the moment, and no longer paid attention to Di who was shouting and banging his head against the tree in the distance, and left the courtyard with Ge and another doorman. He has been in horse clothes all this time, although the days are comfortable, but still a little boring, he wants to go to Handan to have a look.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Ge tightening the reins, and saw Zhao Kuo coming out, Ge bowed, and said: "Shaojun, it seems that you have found a way to get up earlier, it turns out that you stayed up late to study, so you got up very late, and now in order to get up earlier, you don't even read books, so it seems that Shaojun is still smart." Zhao Kuo's head suddenly became big, and he didn't want to take this guy with him, but he needed a car to travel, and Ge was absolutely unwilling to change someone to drive.
Zhao Kuo was about to speak, but Di Ye, who had a scarf tied on his forehead, walked out, stood behind Zhao Kuo, looked at Ge angrily, and scolded: "If you dare to insult Shaojun again, I will definitely cut off your head." ”
"You're just an alien, when will it be your turn to rebuke me?" , Ge originally didn't deal with Di, and when he heard Di's abuse, he naturally wanted to scold back.
"You are just a mediocre person who is not qualified to go to the Pingyuan Jun's mansion, Pingyuanjun accepted all the guests of Ma Fujun, but did not ask you, what kind of face do you have to drive for Ma Fuzi?"
"I'm here to repay Ma Fujun! I didn't go to Pingyuan-kun's mansion! Stay and take care of Mafuko! When Ge heard this, he immediately jumped up angrily, his long hair trembled, this incident made him angry the most, on weekdays, Di always used this incident to anger him, seeing that the two were about to fight, he was fortunate to come forward and let the two not fight in front of Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo ignored the fight between the two guys, looked aside, his neighbor walked out of the door, his neighbor was a kind old man, the old man was on crutches, very old, always smiling on weekdays, Zhao Kuo stepped forward to meet him, the old man smiled and hit Zhao Kuo's back with a mulberry stick. Of course, this is not an attack, Zhao Ren feels that Sangmu can exorcise ghosts, and the old man's behavior can be regarded as blessing Zhao Kuo and expelling evil for him.
"Where is Pinggong going?" , Zhao Kuo asked.
"The old man went to ask, is there a letter from my two children, I don't know where Ma Fuzi is going?"
"I'm going to Handan."
"Okay, then I hope Ma Fuzi has a safe journey." , The old man said, smiled and gently hit the carriage with a mulberry wooden cane, and then left.
got into the carriage, Ge waved the long whip in his hand, the carriage drove away quickly, Di, Xing and a few others followed behind the carriage, running, looking at their appearance, Zhao Kuo felt that maybe he should buy a few horses for them, but when he saw Di running, he was still talking to Xing, seeing Xing's desperate expression, Zhao Kuo felt that it was good now, or don't buy them horses, lest Di always follow him.
The city wall of Handan is very tall, and Zhao Kuo needs to raise his head to see the soldiers guarding the city wall. When the carriage came to the city gate, the city gate seemed a little empty, there were not many people, only seven or eight old people were standing aside, being checked by the soldiers, Ge drove the car directly to the city gate, and the soldiers stopped them and stood in front of them.
"This is Mafuko's car!" , Ge said proudly.
"Mafuzi?!" , The soldiers shouted, and suddenly, the pot exploded at the city gate, and the soldiers patrolling in the distance also ran over, and the Qianshou at the city gate also poked their heads out, one by one, eagerly, reverent, and almost fanatical eyes stared at Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo was very uncomfortable, "Ma Fuzi is here!" Someone shouted, the more crowded people around, countless people called Zhao Kuo's name, and some people knelt on the side of the road and kowtowed to Zhao Kuo.
The soldier guarding the city gate walked to Zhao Kuo's side excitedly, Zhao Kuo saw his face, this soldier is very young, no, he is very young, his face has just grown a slag, his eyes are very bright, he asked cautiously: "Is Ma Fuzi here to fight with Shangjun?" ”
Zhao Kuo was silent and shook his head.
The little soldier was a little disappointed, he raised his head again, "I have two elder brothers in Changping, if you are a general, I am willing to follow you to the battlefield." ”
Zhao Kuo was speechless for a while, and the little soldier hurriedly cleared the road for him, and the carriage entered Handan City.
Handan City is not as prosperous as he remembers, there are few people on the road, even in some restaurants, you can only see one or two men eating meat, Handan looks very depressed, empty, Zhao Kuo's expression is a little trance, until he left Handan, he didn't say a word, he didn't even remember the situation in Handan City.
.........
In the palace, King Zhao and the four ministers of Zhao sat facing each other, among these people, there was no Tiandan and Lin Xiangru, the reason why he was not called Tiandan was because he was not interested in the war, and the reason why he was not called Lin Xiangru was because he was seriously ill at home, and King Zhao really didn't want to bother this old man anymore. King Zhao looked at the four ministers in front of him, and he asked indignantly: "The first battle was unfavorable, the captain died in battle, and the widow wanted to personally roll up his armor to go to the enemy to fight the Qin army, what do you think?" ”
Minister Lou Chang said: "Zhao and Qin use all their national strength to fight a decisive battle, which is not a good thing for both countries, two tigers are fighting, isn't this a thing that makes the surrounding jackals happy?" I think the Emperor should send someone to negotiate peace with the Qin State. After speaking, he bowed to him. King Zhao did not answer, and looked at Yu Qing again, Yu Qing looked a little angry, he stood up and said:
"The Qin State has done its best and will no longer keep it, he wants to destroy my Zhao State, how can he negotiate peace at this time?"
"So what do you think you should do?"
"Shangjun should send people to Wei and Chu to seek their help, in this way, Qin must suspect that the princes of the world will unite against Qin, and they must panic, even if Shangjun wants to negotiate peace with Qin, he should also send people to Wei and Chu first, which is also helpful for peace." , Yu Qing said seriously.
King Zhao nodded, and then looked at his middle father Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao, Zhao Bao looked a little angry at the moment, he said unceremoniously: "In the past, the Qin State crusaded against Korea, and the Korean Shangdang Taishou Feng Ting was unwilling to surrender to the Qin people, and when he offered seventeen cities, the minister told the Shangjun that the interests of the unprovoked are the biggest evil, and such a move will definitely anger the Qin people, it is better to give these places to the Qin people, you have to say that you can get so many cities without spending troops, this is a good thing, how about now?" ”
King Zhao asked angrily: "Could it be that if the widows don't want this Shangdang County, the Qin people won't attack the Zhao State?" Qin is a country like a tiger, shouldn't it accept the land to become stronger to deal with the tiger, and feed the meat to the tiger, waiting for the tiger to eat people? What's the use of talking about that now? ”
Zhao Bao was speechless for a while, and then said: "Since this is the case, then I ask Shangjun to send Zheng Zhu to Qin to negotiate peace, in the past, when the Qin people attacked Yanhe, it was he who went to Qin as an envoy, and I think he is the most suitable." Of course, the fourth minister sitting next to Zhao Bao, that is, Zheng Zhu, got up and bowed to King Zhao and said, "The minister is willing to go to the Qin State to negotiate peace." ”
After pondering for a long time, King Zhao still nodded and said, "This matter is related to the survival of Zhao Kingdom, please don't slack off." ”
Zheng Zhu immediately made an oath, and King Zhao's face softened a little, but Yu Qing, who was sitting on the side, stood up with a miserable smile and shouted, "I'm going to become a slave of the Qin people!" ”
