He is the king of Zhongshan Kingdom, Zhuang Zhen, he is fifty-nine years old this year, and in a few months, it will be his sixtieth birthday banquet, but he does not have the joy of the upcoming birthday banquet at all.

Zhuangzhen's road to the king was very rugged, he ascended the throne at the age of thirty-five, but at that time there were traitorous ministers in charge, in charge of military and political power, he was forced to boil this traitor to death, before he regained the royal power and mastered the military and political power of Zhongshan State.

And this boil is twenty years, until the age of fifty-five, to become a veritable king of Zhongshan Kingdom!

As an intent to strengthen the country and restore the glory of his ancestors, since he grasped the royal power, he began to try to get rid of the control of the Moon Dynasty repeatedly, and the Moon Dynasty sent officials, but nine times out of ten he was overlooked, but he still failed to get rid of the status of a vassal state of the Moon Dynasty as he wished.

In addition to this matter giving him a headache, the stronger the Qin Dynasty above his head, which also made him panic and unable to sleep at night, especially when he heard that the Qin Dynasty played the banner of unifying the world, he knew that it would not be long before the Qin Dynasty would attack the weak Zhongshan Kingdom.

He doesn't want to sit still, he wants to change the law to strengthen the country, but everything is just his wishful thinking, and it is difficult to implement the change at all, after all, although he has been on the throne for twenty-four years, he has been a puppet emperor for twenty years.

In the remaining four years, the throne has not been completely secured, and the hearts of the courtiers and the people are only half of each.

"Bastard!"

Suddenly, Zhuang Zhen angrily threw the fold that was being reviewed in his hand to the ground, and many eunuchs and palace maids next to him immediately lowered their heads in fear, Zhuang Zhen's chest rose and fell violently, his nostrils were panting, and his face was red.

And the reason for his anger was the song he had just fallen to the ground, which said that more than 200 people in a village had disappeared without a trace overnight, and they didn't know where to go.

Although it is said that they don't know the way to go, everyone understands that more than 200 people in this village have definitely secretly run into the Qin Dynasty and go to enjoy the policies of the Qin Dynasty.

Angry, in addition to being angry or angry!

It is a shame to think that the overlord of the northwest back then fell to the point where his people absconded to other countries, a great shame, if the ancestors who created the prosperous situation saw this scene, they were afraid that they would jump out of the coffin in anger.

Trample. Trample.

At this time, an old eunuch holding Buddha dust walked into the hall, this old eunuch is named Si Li, the official worships the eunuch's order, and is one of the few cronies in Zhuang Town.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Envoy asks to see you!" The celebrant bowed down respectfully and said.

"Zhao Envoy? What Zhao envoy? Zhuang Zhen didn't come back to his senses for a while.

"Zhao envoy said that Emperor Zhao sent him to attack the Zhongshan country overnight to discuss major matters with the king, and he has been running for fifteen consecutive days so far, and he is exhausted, but he still has to see the king first and talk about things!" The celebrant replied respectfully.

Zhuang Zhen frowned, and thought in his heart, Zhongshan Wangcheng is two thousand miles away from the capital of the Handan Emperor, and it will be two thousand miles in fifteen days, how urgent is this, and we will discuss major matters, what does this major event refer to, could it be?

Zhuang Zhen quickly thought of the news that the Qin Dynasty had declared war on the Zhao Dynasty a few days ago, and when he thought of this, he could be sure that the Zhao Dynasty sent envoys to himself to resist Qin.

"Did anything happen to him?" Zhuang Zhen also wants to be sure.

"Back to the king, Zhao envoy didn't say it!" The celebrant bowed his head and replied.

"Stupid, don't you know if he doesn't say it?" Zhuang Zhen said angrily, and then shook his hand again and again: "Hurry up, bring Zhao Envoy over!" ”

"Yes!" Si Li quickly retreated, and soon disappeared from Zhuang Zhen's sight.

After the priest left, Zhuang Zhen sat on the king's chair and waited quietly, this is the time of two incense sticks, although the Zhongshan Palace is a palace, but the scale is made according to the standard palace, it is very large, there is no time for two incense sticks, it is impossible to walk from the palace gate to the imperial study, unless you run.

After the time of two incense sticks, Si Li took a middle-aged man dressed in a silver cloud goose complement court dress into the imperial study, this middle-aged man was the envoy to Zhongshan Zhao, named Wang He, and the official was appointed as the city defense Langzhong of the fourth military department.

There were not enough people in the Ministry of Rites, so the ministers of the four grades who were relatively idle in the Ministry of War were sent as envoys.

Wang He bent down and saluted with a calm demeanor: "Foreign minister Wang He, on the orders of His Majesty Emperor Zhao, came to envoy Zhongshan Kingdom, and at the same time greeted the King of Zhongshan for my emperor's health!" ”

"Haha!" Zhuang Zhenpi laughed a few times without smiling, and deliberately showed a smile of relief: "This king is in good health, thank you Emperor Zhao for greetings, oh yes, when the time comes, your envoy will also greet Emperor Zhao for this king!" ”

"I will bring it by all means!" Wang He smiled lightly.

"What is the matter with Zhao Envoy this time?"

After some politeness, Zhuang Zhen went straight to the topic and asked about the purpose of Zhao's envoy to Zhongshan.

"Zhongshan Kingdom is located under the Qin Dynasty, not far from Xianyang, presumably the king has learned that the Qin Dynasty has declared war on my Great Zhao, and he came down for this matter!" Wang He didn't ink, he went straight to the point.

"Please send troops from Zhongshan to aid Zhao?" Zhuang Zhen asked tentatively.

"No!"

Wang He shook his head, "It's to raise troops to attack Qin!" ”

Zhuang Zhen was weak, and the whole person almost fell off the king's chair, and was frightened by Wang He's indifferent five words.

Zhuang Zhen knew that he was embarrassed, and hurriedly straightened his clothes, and then looked at Wang He with an incredible face: "Your envoy is joking, you actually want this king's Zhongshan Kingdom to raise troops to attack Qin, your envoy is not joking, or he looks at this king too much!" ”

The Zhongshan Kingdom has 30,000 armor, the Qin Dynasty has 1 million armor, and the combat strength is one heaven and one earth, what to attack Qin, 40 million Qin people can drown Zhongshan with a mouthful of spit, and the two are not at the same level at all!

Wang He said unhurriedly: "The king is calm and impatient, and listen to the next word!" ”

Zhuang Zhen already has the urge to drive people away, so don't be impatient, if you change to you, don't be bored.

"Okay, your envoy continues!" Zhuang Zhen waved helplessly.

"The ambition of the wolf son of the Qin Dynasty is obvious, and he intends to unify the world, and the concept of dominating the world, presumably the king is clearer than the bottom, it is nothing more than to sweep away the kingdom under the sky, and the world will be one, and everyone in the world will punish such ambitious people!"

"This time, my emperor has sent envoys to the eight dynasties including the Xia Dynasty, the Chu Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, the Qi Dynasty, the Shu Dynasty, the Lu Dynasty, the Shen Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty, as well as the twenty-seven vassal states including the Zhongshan Kingdom!"

"Prepare to come to a world-wide attack on Qin and completely eliminate this threat from Kyushu, so it is not to aid Zhao, but to attack Qin, and it is not a matter of Zhongshan and Great Zhao, it is a matter of the countries of Kyushu!" Wang and Zhenzhen talked eloquently.
