At this time, Zhao Kuo should not have left, because his child was about to be born, which made Zhao Kuo hesitate, when Yi was about to give birth, as a husband, as the father of an unborn child, of course he should be by her side, Zhao's mother also felt the same, but Yi didn't want him to delay his important business, she said to Zhao Kuo: "Since Dong Chengzi sent someone to you, he must have encountered something that cannot be solved, please help him." ”

"I'll wait for you to come back."

With Yi's entrustment, Zhao Kuo thought about it again and again, and finally took Li Yu, Xing, Di, Han Fei and others and rushed to Handan. Now it was Xinglai who drove for him, and Di also wanted to drive, but he was too fast and talked a lot, so Zhao Kuo asked Xinglai to drive, and Di followed behind, which was bitter Li Yu and Han Fei. Han Fei doesn't care, he still likes to tell stories, after all, Han Fei has been looking for all kinds of stories and recording them.

The warriors sent by Dong Chengzi also followed them, and the warriors told about what happened in Handan, the assassination of the envoy of the Yan State, and the assassination of a Yan warrior, the impact of this incident is still huge, after all, it involves two countries, and in order to improve the relationship between the two countries, during this period of time, but there are many visits to the ministers, and most of the ministers of the Zhao State also feel that they should live in harmony with the Yan State.

After all, the Qin State is eyeing the tiger, at such a time? One more ally? It's just a little more power to fight against the Qin State, the relationship between the Yan State and the Qin State has always been ambiguous, this is a good opportunity to pull the Yan State from the arms of the Qin State to his side? At a time like this? Suddenly, the assassination of the envoy of the Yan State occurred, or it was assassinated outside the palace, which naturally had a great impact, and the ministers were also very concerned about this matter.

And King Zhao only gave Dong Chengzi ten days to solve this matter, and Dong Chengzi had already used up six days? There are only four days left.

When Zhao Kuo first heard about this, he was also a little suspicious of Xinlingjun, but? He quickly dismissed his idea? It's impossible. If Xinlingjun wants to kill Jiangqu? It wasn't a difficult thing to do, and he couldn't commit assassination before the palace? The number of Wei Wuji's doormen is unmatched by no one in Zhao China? Can he even make an army? After leaving Handan, the canal was completely destroyed.

What's more, Xin Lingjun doesn't look like a villain who will use this method.

Zhao Kuo believed in Wei Wuji, but the first person he suspected was Zhao Bao... Zhao Kuo is not stupid, he can see what King Zhao thinks of himself, he has begun to be jealous of himself, but there is no way to do it, he previously summoned Zhao Bao to Handan City, this matter, Di has already told him, King Zhao called Pingyuan Jun, a big reason is Chang'an Jun's matter. Could this be that Pingyang Jun wants to frame Xin Lingjun and take down Xin Lingjun's phase?

After all, with this prime minister, no one can deal with him...

King Zhao is partial to Xinling Jun, and King Zhao is partial to all famous sages.... Does King Zhao know about this? The last thing King Zhao wants to see is that Xinling Jun leaves Zhao Kingdom, if Pingyang Jun does such a thing, can King Zhao tolerate him?

Zhao Kuo sat in the carriage, thinking about these things seriously, and he thought about how to face King Zhao, Zhao Kuo did not have the idea of seeking a dynasty to usurp the throne, of course, he did not have the idea of swearing allegiance to the feudal king in his heart.

What's more, in this era, there is no saying that the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die. At the beginning, even Shang Ying, after receiving the result of King Qin's punishment of himself, returned to the fiefdom to raise troops to resist.

Zhao Kuo didn't want to die in the hands of King Zhao, and he didn't want to kill King Zhao, King Zhao was really good to him, even if he had any thoughts in his heart, he didn't say that he wanted to deal with himself, not to mention, if he killed King Zhao, there would definitely be civil strife in Zhao...

Zhao Kuo sighed, sometimes, he was really envious of those villagers in the horse suit, he just wanted to be by his family, friends, but fate seemed to be a sharp blade, aimed at his back.

He can only move forward with his head down, but he can't stop and watch.

That sense of powerlessness in the face of fate made him extremely bored, and then there was a kind of confusion about the future, he didn't know how to get along with King Zhao, and he didn't know where his future was. If you can, stay in Mafu like this, discuss doctrines with the sages of the world, and cultivate more useful people, such a life is really happy, there is a mother, art, politics, and Ge's complaints, Di's verbosity, Han Fei's thoughts...

Zhao Kuo suddenly laughed again, and suddenly, he heard a cry in the distance. Zhao Kuo hurriedly stopped Xing and looked into the distance, beside the road, there was a young man, holding a corpse and crying bitterly. Zhao Kuo hurriedly got out of the carriage, surrounded by everyone, walked to the man's side, looking at the corpse in his arms, Zhao Kuo sighed again, leaned over and asked, "He is..."

"My father fell ill and died... I don't have the money to bury him. ”

The young man cried.

Zhao Kuo rummaged for a moment, then took out some money, handed it to him, and said, "Please take these to bury your father." ”

The young man raised his head, this is a very clean young man, his eyes are so clear, he looked at Zhao Kuo, and cried again, Zhao Kuo walked to his side, and was about to help him up, when something happened, the young man suddenly took out a dagger from under the corpse and stabbed at Zhao Kuo, Di's eyes widened, and he reacted first, like a gust of wind, rushing towards him, but at that moment, Zhao Kuo quickly stretched out his hand, held the young man's arm, twisted it in reverse, and the young man screamed in pain.

Zhao Kuo grabbed his arm and threw him to the ground neatly, Di Hexing pounced on him and held him down.

"Why do you want to kill me?"

"I have heard that anyone who betrays his monarch can be killed!" The young man's eyes widened and he said angrily. Zhao Kuo didn't say anything more, shook his head, and said, "Take him away, and, bury this corpse...", the young man was fierce, directly bit off his tongue, blood spurted out of his mouth, and roared in pain, Zhao Kuo looked at him in surprise.

Betrayed his own monarch?

This shouldn't be someone sent by King Zhao, otherwise, he wouldn't have said so much, obviously, someone wants to separate himself from King Zhao.

Because of an attack, Di and the others were very careful, they surrounded Zhao Kuo, vigilantly looking at the surrounding situation, just like that, when everyone walked into Handan, Dong Chengzi was already waiting at the city gate, and he rushed to his mansion with Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo told Dong Chengzi about the assassination he encountered on the road, and Dong Chengzi's eyes widened and he almost cried.

The assassination of an envoy of the Yan Kingdom was about to drive him crazy, which...

Fortunately, Zhao Kuo didn't care about this assassination, he said: "Please tell me everything you know in detail." ”

At this time, Zhao Bao sat in the palace, lowered his head, and looked at King Zhao in front of him. King Zhao said with some anger: "How can you shoot the envoy of the Yan Kingdom outside the palace? If the envoy of the Yan State dies, the Zhao State will be at war with the Yan State!! Pingyang Jun shook his head and said seriously: "Yan State is not to be afraid, they have no generals, lack of food, and they can't gather soldiers, as long as they send Li Mu, Le Jian, or Lian Po, Yan Guo will definitely fail." ”

"Xinlingjun is still here, so there is no way to deal with Zhao Kuo..."

"Then you can't force the widow Xinlingjun away, if Xinlingjun wants to leave, what should the widow do?" , King Zhao said angrily, Pingyang Jun said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not trying to force Xin Lingjun away, although I don't like him, but if you want him to stay, he has to stay, all I want to do is to let Xin Lingjun have no way to get out for the time being, let everyone focus on Handan, and my plan can be achieved." ”

"What exactly are your plans?"

Only then did Pingyang Jun raise his head, look at King Zhao in front of him, and said, "If the thieves kidnap Ma Fujun's son and ask Ma Fujun to redeem it in person, do you say, will Ma Fujun go?" ”

"You're going to kidnap Mafuko??" , King Zhao jumped up, he shook his head, and said: "No, this is absolutely not good, the widow will not allow you to use such a means, Ma Fujun is credited to the Zhao State, he once repelled the Yan State for the widow, defeated Bai Qi for the widow, you can kill him, but you can't treat his family like this..", Zhao Bao said angrily: "Please take Zhao Guo as the priority!" ”

"I originally thought that when Dong Chengzi was not doing well, I would invite Ma Fujun to Handan and secretly kidnap his son, Ma Fu people come and go, scholars of all factions are there, and strangers will not be interrogated at all, I sent someone to inquire about several places where Ma Fuzi often goes... I prepared something in advance, this thing can make Ma Fujun completely lose all his guards..."

"No, the widow doesn't agree." , King Zhao shook his head and rejected Zhao Bao.

"So what do you want? Don't you want to get rid of Ma Fukun? ”

"Get rid of Ma Fujun?" , King Zhao looked at Zhao Bao, his eyes were full of pain, and he shouted: "The widow doesn't want to get rid of him!" He's a horse suit! It's the Mafu Jun admired by the Seven Kingdoms! The widow has a horse to serve the king, but he wants to get rid of him? How can the widow get rid of him?! He's the best man in the widow's command... The widow doesn't want to hurt him, the widow can't hurt him..."

"Then you are ready to continue to be a puppet king, or simply, give up the throne to Ma Fujun." , Zhao Bao said coldly.

"Ahh , King Zhao roared, pulled out his sword, and waved it indiscriminately, until he lost all his strength, then he fell into the palace, fell to the ground, and lay on the ground panting, King Zhao stared up, his face was full of tears, Zhao Bao just looked at him, let him vent, after a long time, King Zhao said a little hoarsely: "He is cultivating talents for the widow, in the Handan Academy, he has cultivated a lot of capable people, and there are already a number of his disciples who serve as officials in Zhao State..."

"Don't look for any more excuses! The more his disciples are growing, the more dangerous he becomes, you can't even deal with him now, the ministers, the generals, even the soldiers, the people, and even you, are not willing to hurt him... The system he came up with made the Qin state stronger, and he and the king of Qin often communicated through letters, and his disciples went to more countries, and now you don't even have the power to dispose of anyone. ”

"Outside the palace, they are all under the orders of Ma Fujun, not your orders."

"A dignified feudal king, your brother, was killed by him like that, but the people of the country applauded!"

"If you don't get rid of him, those who follow him will kill you sooner or later, so that he can become the king of Zhao!"

King Zhao looked up blankly and asked, "Do you really need this?" ”

"That's... The widow's horse is a king. ”

.......

When Zhao Kuo saw King Zhao, he found that King Zhao's expression was still not very good, he looked a little tired, but when facing Zhao Kuo, he was still very enthusiastic and kindly let Zhao Kuo sit beside him. Zhao Kuo asked with some concern: "Are you okay?" King Zhao shook his head, and he said seriously: "The matter of the envoy of the Yan State is very important, if the envoy of the Yan State dies in the Zhao State, no country will dare to send an envoy to Zhao in the future..."

Zhao Kuo nodded and said seriously: "You are right, the death of a person is already a very serious matter." Zhao Kuo paused, and then said: "I doubt it, this is what Pingyang Jun did, because Dong Chengzi found out that the assassin may be mixed among the warriors of the palace...", Zhao Wang's face stiffened slightly, smiled, and said: "How is this possible?" ”

"Pingyangjun is seriously ill and is still on the bed now, unable to get up."

"Your Excellency... There are some things I want to tell you. I know that there must be villains telling you that I want to betray Zhao Guo, but my family and my friends are all in Zhao Guo, and I will not want to leave here. I just want to teach more disciples in the Handan School with peace of mind, so that they can change the world in the future..."

"One king of the world? The widow knows... You say, can Zhao Guo complete a king of the world? ”

"Maybe, if you can support the reform of the law, improve people's livelihood, reuse talents, and stay away from villains, Zhao Guo will definitely be revitalized... However, it is probably going to kill a lot of people. Zhao Kuo said, smiling bitterly again, he continued: "Shangjun, probably I am not suitable for this era, and the person who came here should not be me... If only I could have been more decisive and ruthless..."

"I'm sorry... I can't do it for you, I can't do it for anyone, I go to the battlefield to save people, not to kill. ”

"I can only hide in the horse clothes cowardly, and strive to teach more disciples who can play a role in the era of the king... I have already told my disciples what I know, and even if I am gone, there will be people who will fulfill my faith... That way, I feel less guilty. ”

King Zhao didn't speak, he was silent for a long time before he spoke: "You're right... You are not suitable to be a general, you are more suitable to be the minister of state, if the widow can rule the world, the widow will definitely appoint you as the minister of state, so that you can help the widow govern the world. ”

"Okay... If you can really fulfill your ideals, I am willing to serve as the Minister of State and govern the world for you. ”
