Chapter 181: The Princess

The monarchs and ministers in the court of the Great Qin Dynasty secretly discussed, and what kind of conquest strategy was formulated, naturally it would not be known to outsiders. But from that day on, the Great Qin army stepped up its preparations. Among them, the movements of several major generals still attracted the attention of the spies of the vassal states.

Wang Feng and the children of the family, who were bent on revenge, were not able to do so. I don't know for what reason, this veteran was sent by King Qin to the southeast of Hangu Pass to guard it. At the same time, Meng Wu, a famous general from the Mengshi family, was transferred to the northern fortress to defend against the threat from the northwestern barbarians. All the troops around Feng'an were all handed over to Shang Yunbai, who was known as the first general of Great Qin. And Mu Xueqing, the general who originally held this duty, disappeared inexplicably, and no one knows where he went.

Almost at the same time, envoys from the Southern Han, Yan and Wei also entered Feng'an City one after another. After receiving stern orders from the King of Qin, they finally could not withstand the tremendous pressure and were forced to bring gold to the Qin people.

In this regard, the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State fully reflected their nature of being called the country of tigers and wolves. After weighing the pros and cons, these three countries chose to give in, and the right should be to break the wealth and avoid disaster! If for the sake of 100,000 taels of gold, if the Qin State turns its face, the swords and soldiers will face each other, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Subsequently, the state of Qin again sent an envoy to the state of Zhao. They didn't give any more gold to the people of Zhao, and all the envoys brought to King Zhao Chu Jiangmian was a word from King Qin.

"The two countries will strike their troops and live in peace, and the Qin State will not shoot another arrow at the Zhao State within three years!"

This is the price of 400,000 taels of gold, and it is also a promise to Chu Jiangmian to let the Qin State delegation bring back the message last time. The three-year period of peace, whether it was for Qin or Zhao, was what they needed most.

Although Nie Feng, the king of Qin, has listed Chu Jiangmian as a thorn in his side that must be eradicated in his heart. But in reality, he admired the young man very much for what he did.

"If you give birth to a child like this, the lone king is not as good as Chu Lie!"

This is what he sighed to his queen in private. Whether he wants to admit it or not, he understands it very well in his heart. Even the young son Nie Wushuang, whom he valued the most, was far inferior if compared to Chu Jiangmian. However, in this case, it will naturally not be spread.

That is, from now on, the Qin State has truly listed the Zhao State as the most powerful enemy. In these three years, they must achieve all the strategic goals they have set, and they may be able to defeat their opponents and destroy them in one fell swoop.

"The king just relax! As long as the two-step strategy of aligning the country and Los Angeles is successfully realized, then the great cause of the Qin state will be half completed! No matter how powerful Zhao Guo is, when he is surrounded on all sides, what can he do? Hehe! ”

"Wu Pingjun, just let it go! The Lone King has absolute confidence in you...... It's all over! ”

Standing on the head of Feng'an City, watching the Great Qin cavalry quietly go away, Nie Feng, the king of Qin, held his hand to comfort Wuzi, his eyes were full of encouragement. This person made a move, and no one in the world would ever think where he would fall! By the time the thunder suddenly sounded, perhaps, the overall situation had already been decided!

"With General Mu Xueqing personally commanding, who in the world can block his thunderous blow? Wait for the news of victory, my lord! The indecisive King Qi, I hope he won't be so scared that he pees his pants when the time comes...... Hehe! The monarchs and ministers laughed at each other, and they all felt secretly proud of their clever move like a "flying sword from the sky". Since the king of Qi and his ministers did not know how to raise their troops and withdrew their troops without authorization, they should be severely punished. Qi is known as the richest country among the princes in the world, so the harvest of the Qin army will inevitably be extremely rich.

"The king of Qi is mediocre, and there is a lack of good generals under his command. I'm afraid that when the army comes to Canghai City, he won't think that this is Daqin's soldiers and horses, right? ”

"Huh! Qin and Qi are thousands of miles apart, and there are several vassal states in between, not only the king of Qi can't think of it, but how many of the ministers of the Qi country who only value interests can think of it? The king just waits for good news. ”

The storm is scattered, and time flies. In the blink of an eye, before I knew it, summer was coming to an end. Since the end of the war, which shook all sides, the world has been relatively stable in the past few months.

During this period of time, envoys came and went, whether it was Zhao or Qin, Wei and other vassal states, through continuous negotiations and negotiations, finally resolved the remaining problems of the war.

All the captured soldiers of the Qin State finally left the Zhao State and returned to the land of the Qin State. During these months, they were not humiliated and tortured by the Zhao people. On the contrary, not only did they have a good meal, but the King of Zhao had also arranged some other things for them to do. Of course, this was not to do the same labor as the prisoners had done in the past, but to send some clerks in the army and the like to give them regular explanations.

Later, some of them even enjoyed participating in this kind of activity, which Zhao Jun called "class". Those clerks of Zhao Jun obviously seemed very jerky, and some of the reasoning was not so clear. But even so, they learned a lot about things they hadn't heard of before.

"King, the old minister is very puzzled, what is the use of you bothering to write so many words?"

"Don't worry, it may not be useful now, but it will definitely be useful in the future!"

With a meaningful expression on his face, Chu Jiangmian answered the old minister's question. The other party said with a helpless expression and a wry smile.

"The old minister is getting more and more unable to keep up with the king's footsteps. Now remind myself every day to watch more and learn more, and ask if you don't understand...... Just like the king said, there is no end to learning, and things are done by man! However, I still feel puzzled by the many new things that appeared in the hands of the king! It is no exaggeration to say that Lao Chen's horizons have been expanded in the past few months more than he has known and heard in the past many years! ”

Fei Yi's tone was full of mixed emotions. This is not his feeling alone, but the deep sigh of everyone in the royal court. The young King Zhao is so different, and what kind of miracle he will create, no one can say.

"Actually, each of us needs to keep learning. The so-called live to be old, learn to be old! Why should the Prime Minister be humble? You've done a great job. Without your help, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do anything. ”

"Your Majesty, you are too modest. According to what Lao Chen knows and hears, these things you have done are not just something that can be obtained through learning, right? The so-called genius from heaven and born to know such words, Lao Chen didn't believe it too much before. But now, I am convinced! There are already rumors in the outside world that the king is a man of heaven, and he is here to shoulder the well-being of the people in the world...... If this is the case, the old minister is really lucky to be able to do things for the king! ”

Looking at Fei Yi's serious expression, Chu Jiangmian reached out and rubbed his forehead, feeling a lot of helplessness and a little ashamed in his heart. I have not done much for the people of Zhao State, and in such a short period of time, many of the measures that have been implemented have not yet achieved any results. But even so, whether it is the people or inside and outside the royal court, there is already a voice of praise from Thanksgiving. At the time of the advent of this chaotic era of relative poverty, people can get food and clothing, and people can have a place to live, and they will not suffer from displacement. It is already the greatest wish of ordinary people...... Thinking of the sad scenes he witnessed when he quietly went out to check the lives of the people, he felt that he had not done enough.

"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy! …… Prime Minister, Ladies and Gentlemen! I hope you will work with me to achieve this goal one day! ”

"The king's mind is beyond the reach of others! The ministers dare not do their best to follow the work of dogs and horses! ”

Headed by Minister of State Fei Yi, all the people present fell to the ground and wept with gratitude. They had never heard of a king who had ever lamented such a heartfelt sigh for the toiling beings. From now on, even if you die for such a person, it will be worth it!

"The king, Lanling Jun has been invited several times, asking the king to go to his mansion for a banquet! I don't know if I'm free tonight? …… Hehe! ”

Doctor Zizhong quietly approached his side, and the smile on his face seemed to be a little mysterious. Only he and a very small number of people know that recently, King Zhao Chu Jiangmian is having some troubles that are inconvenient to talk about this matter.

"Alas! Doctor, these days are really busy with government affairs, that ...... Why don't you go and tell him in a few days? ”

Chu Jiangmian rubbed his forehead vigorously again, feeling the excuse he had made, even he felt a little funny. But he really couldn't find any other reason to shirk it. Zizhong blinked and whispered again.

"King, I've been making excuses not to go, this is a bit unspeakable, right? Anyway, the minister was really embarrassed to tell him...... Speaking of which, for the sake of the cooperation between Zhao and Qi, Lan Lingjun did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to buy a mansion in Longcheng, the purpose of which was to get the king's guidance at any time. However, the king has always refused to come, and he has been complaining in my ear over and over again, which has hindered the minister's economic dealings with the Qi state. Alas! The king must not delay any longer. ”

Zizhong tried his best to make a serious expression, so as not to accidentally reveal the snickering in his heart. In any case, the majesty of King Zhao must be maintained. Although in this matter, King Zhao's performance did not conform to their impression of "decisive decision" at all.

Chu Jiangmian didn't need to look at it, and he knew what the expression of the doctor who knew the whole thing was about. Do you have to go there? He felt his head grow a little bigger.

Going to Lanling Jun's mansion as a guest, of course, there is nothing terrible. And the reason why the young King Zhao can feel the headache is that he is alone.

A woman, to be exact.

PS: Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's New Year's Eve, I wish you all a happy 2020 in advance!
