Chapter 301: The hero is sad to pass the beauty level

Although what Gongzi said was brief, in fact, there have been many major events in the past five years. The last powerful force in Zimmer's hands, that is, those "Blood Shadow" dead soldiers, was also able to gather some information. However, since their heavy losses in the Battle of Zhongzhou, they have not been able to replenish them. In addition to faithfully protecting the royal family, its influence has been greatly diminished in other ways. Not to mention that compared with the two most famous forces in the world, the Qin State's "Hook Annihilation Office" and the Zhao State's "Thousand Machine Pavilion", it is also much inferior to the spy system of several other great princes.

There's no way around it. It is not easy to raise a spy who is both capable and loyal. Every time one dies, it is a loss for the dynasty. It is precisely for this reason that Zimmer's understanding of the evolution of the world pattern is not as profound as that of the prince who returned from King Zhao.

After listening to Gongzi's detailed explanation, Ji Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling both surprised and many other complicated emotions in his heart. There is no need to say much about Wei and Yan. Those two vast territories have been connected to the Zhao State from two directions. After nearly five years of digestion and governance, they have all been truly in the hands of King Zhao. This complete land alone made the actual control of Zhao more than three times larger than before. If you add these "enclaves" near Zhongzhou, Zhao's influence can be described as unprecedented.

In addition to the Qin and Zhao states, the power of the Southern Han State should not be underestimated. Since the defeat of the last attack on Zhao, Lu Qi, the king of the Southern Han Dynasty, has kept this hatred in his heart. He used the strong financial resources he had accumulated to begin to vigorously develop the water army. The large rivers of Lingnan and the lakes that can be seen everywhere are their natural advantages. The power of the Southern Han naval army became more and more powerful. In the past few years, they have not been idle, and they have attacked several times, with absolute deterrence, so that several princes in Wu, Yue and other places are obediently obedient under the banner of the Southern Han. Lu Qi once swore that once the time was ripe, he would personally lead his army down the river to come to Zhao to avenge his revenge.

As for the Qi State on the coast of the East China Sea, its strength has also developed very strongly. But this strength is limited to the abundance of wealth. If you want to say that the richest princes in the world, they should be the first to promote the king of Qi. As for its military and political influence, it is quite inferior.

In this way, the general situation of the princes of the world is already very obvious. Qin and Zhao can be said to be two heroes side by side, and their strength far exceeds that of other princes!

And the thing that made Zimmer feel both apprehensive and a little looking forward to it was undoubtedly that this time King Zhao Chu Jiangmian was coming to Los Angeles. His trip was clearly not that simple. You don't have to think much to know that it will definitely attract the attention of all the eyes in the world. So what will happen is anyone's guess.

"I heard that after the fall of Shu, the loyal old minister Xin Gong, protecting the bloodline left by the king of Shu, desperately escaped from Stone City, and finally fled to Zhao after bloody battles all the way...... What happened to this? ”

After the banquet was about to end, and everything was clear, Zimmer suddenly remembered this incident. As an old minister of Shu, Duke Xin also came to Los Angeles as a special envoy. He was very impressed with him. Childe replied with a sigh.

"The Kingdom of Shu was destroyed by Western Qin, and the experience from top to bottom was very miserable. In order to establish their authority, the people of Qin issued a stern order, and asked not to let go of any of the monarchs and ministers of Shu who had secretly helped Zhao State. On the day of the stone city breaking, the flames soared into the sky and continued for several days. The misery of the people is innumerable. The king of Shu refused to flee and committed suicide with a sword in the palace. The prime minister Xin Gong used the power at hand to protect one of the sons of the king of Shu and kill him. Thanks to the help of the spies of the Thousand Machine Pavilion of the Zhao Kingdom, they were able to escape to the Zhao Kingdom. However, after the Duke of Xin entrusted the prince of Shu to Chu Jiangmian, the king of Zhao, he died soon after. And King Zhao has promised him in person that he will definitely take care of the remnants of this King of Shu, and will seek justice for the Shu people who were poisoned by the Qin army. ”

"Alas! What a pity...... When the war started, it was always the people who suffered! I don't know when it will end. ”

Zimmer felt sad in his heart, but he had no choice but to sigh secretly. Even if you don't have to see it with your own eyes, just from these words relayed by Gongzi Jiao, you can imagine the disaster suffered by the people of Shu. He then remembered that if it weren't for Zhao Guo's strong support, I'm afraid that Zhongzhou and Los Angeles would have already fallen into such a fate, right?

"Uncle Wang, the land of the princes near Zhongzhou should have calmed down now, right?"

Before getting up to say goodbye, Childe asked again. A strange smile appeared on Zimmer's face, and he stroked his beard with his hand, as if wondering what to say.

"The situation here, you are by King Zhao's side, haven't you really heard him mention it?"

"Uncle Wang, I really don't know. I feel strange in my heart, too! King Zhao did not hide anything about other major events, but he rarely mentioned the situation in Zhongzhou...... But I don't know why? ”

Childe's face was full of doubts, and his heart was puzzled. But when he heard Ji Mo laughing, the actual presiding officer of the Great Zhou Dynasty seemed to have finally glimpsed the embarrassment that was rarely seen by Chu Jiangmian, the king of Zhao.

"Childe, there's nothing strange about that. Several princes' lands around Zhongzhou were given to King Zhao by the Son of Heaven after the Battle of Zhongzhou was over. This one...... Childe should know, right? ”

Childe nodded, of course he knew about this important matter. What he didn't understand was that since these places were already owned by the Zhao State, their status was extremely important. But why did King Zhao seem to be unconcerned? Zimmer then asked.

"So, does Childe know who has been governing this region far away from Zhao in the past few years?"

"Uncle Wang, isn't it the general of Zhao State who is stationed here?"

"Huh! Of course not. Everyone in the world should think like you that it is King Zhao's henchmen, generals and the most elite army that can deter this newly annexed land, right? If you think so, you're wrong!"

"Uncle Wang...... Little nephew is ignorant, please make it clear!"

"It looks like you really don't know. Then I want to tell you, in the past few years, there has not been a single soldier and a general of the Zhao people here, but it is the army of the Qi State that is governing for him, you will be surprised, right? ”

Childe was really taken aback. How is this possible? Zhongzhou is an important place, and the princes of the world are eyeing it. And in the surrounding small princes' lands, various forces are intricate, and it is even more difficult to subdue them. In such a situation, if you want to hold these places and gain a firm foothold, the famous general Zhao Guo, who is not extremely capable, is not competent. Even he had always believed that it was the army of his henchmen secretly sent by King Zhao to guard him here. But I didn't expect it to be a Qi person! If it comes out of someone else's mouth, he will naturally not believe it. But now that Uncle Wang Ji Mo said these words with emotion, he would never lie to him.

"So who's so powerful? He was so trusted by King Zhao!"

"That woman's name is Wuwu, and she is the princess of Qi Kingdom! She led the army of Qi and took full authority over the scope of this land of thousands of miles for King Zhao. After a few years, the chaotic situation was quickly pacified, not only in an orderly manner, but also greatly ensured the safety of Zhongzhou and Los Angeles...... Alas! I don't know what kind of ability King Zhao relied on to make this princess of Qi so desperate to do things for him! It would be nice if the Great Zhou royal family also had such a princess...... Hehe! ”

In the end, Zimmer sighed with emotion, and there was obviously some regret in his tone. With his old spicy eyes, how could he not see the relationship between King Zhao and the princess of Qi Kingdom? It's a pity that their Zhou royal family doesn't have such a capable princess, otherwise wouldn't it be beautiful to use it to entrap King Zhao?!

Gongzi will naturally not ridicule Uncle Wang's thoughts. He understood that no matter what the other party did, it was to maintain the last dignity of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which made him feel a little heartbroken. And when he suddenly realized, he remembered that when Zhongzhou was in danger and he went to ask King Zhao for help, he seemed to have seen the princess of Qi in the army. At that time, he didn't have the heart to think about it, but now he seemed to understand why King Zhao trusted her so much.

"I see! No wonder King Zhao rarely mentions it...... Ha ha! Uncle Wang didn't know that since last year, the Queen Mother Jiang Xin has repeatedly signaled openly and secretly to let King Zhao clarify the candidate for Queen Zhao, but King Zhao has avoided perfunctory every time, and has not yet decided. Presumably there is a reason for this carefree princess, right? ”

"And such a thing? Hahaha! The old man understood. Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass! It seems that Chu Jiangmian is no exception. ”

Ji Mo, who heard Gongzi Jie inadvertently tell the secrets of the Zhao royal family, couldn't even get rid of the gossip. So, what kind of choice will King Zhao, who seems to be able to control everything in a breezy breeze, choose between two extremely outstanding women? This is actually a secret that is no longer a secret, not only makes Gongzi and Zimmer who talk about these very concerned, but there are many people who discuss it passionately everywhere in the world.

And Chu Jiangmian, the king of Zhao who was unconscious, didn't seem to realize the seriousness of this matter. In other words, he knew it, but he deliberately pretended to be confused. There's really no way! Even he had a difficult time making a choice in this matter.

He can look down on all opponents on the battlefield, can talk and laugh freely between life and death, can see through the mystery of the cycle of rise and fall, and can do whatever he wants...... But only among the two women who loved him deeply, like thousands of mortals in the world, he was trapped in love and fell into trouble.

"What the hell should I do? Otherwise...... White Night, let's leave Dragon City as soon as possible tonight! ”

King Zhao, who had not dared to enter Jinxiang Palace for three days, whispered to his henchmen that he was sneaky and cowardly.
