The Qin State rose strongly in the First World War thirteen years ago, and the Qin general Zhao Lie attacked the imperial city of the Southern Underworld in one fell swoop, which could have destroyed the Southern Underworld in one fell swoop, but at the most critical moment, Zhao Lie suddenly received the news of the violent death of the old King of Qin, withdrew his troops overnight, and returned to the Qin State to participate in the funeral of the King of Qin.

Now the new King of Qin has been on the throne for thirteen years, every time the change of dynasties must have a bloody storm, the violent death of the old King Qin gave a fatal blow to the strong rise of the Qin State, and once again fell into danger, fortunately, the new monarch is not a mediocre generation, he has a big reform of the Qin State, the court situation has changed blood, the court situation has stabilized, the courtiers all admire the heroic courage of this king, wise and decisive, this is a king who holds the power of life and death, he is ambitious, He wanted the six countries of Shandong to bow down to the Qin State, and he overlooked the six countries.

Zhao Lie was dressed in black armor, the handsome face thirteen years ago, and now he has grown stubble, he has been marching in the army all the year round, he is burly, with strong muscles, and he is in the prime of life.

He strode on the steps of Xianyang Palace, and the King of Qin summoned him, and he was going to see the King of Qin at this time.

A person walked down from above, passing by, Zhao Lie recognized that person, it was Qin Zheng, the fourth highness of the Qin State, the most unfavored prince of the Qin State. It is said that he has been staying in his dormitory and has not been summoned, why did he come out today? Did King Qin summon him?

Qin Zheng had a sickly pale face, and when he passed by Zhao Lie, he bowed down, with a calm attitude, neither humble nor arrogant. Which prince of the Qin State is not arrogant and arrogant to others. Zhao Lie suddenly had a slight impression of Qin Zheng, he also returned the salute with his fists, and shouted respectfully: "Fourth Highness!" ”

The young man smiled slightly and said, "General, you have to enter the palace so late to meet King Qin, the general has worked hard!" ”

He's talking about the King of Qin, not the Father!

"It's not hard, it's the duty of a minister."

"Then the general go quickly, don't let King Qin wait for a long time!"

"Then Zhao Lie will leave first, take care of Your Highness!" Zhao Lie clasped his hands into fists and saluted, turned around and strode away.

The mother concubine of these four highnesses is a palace maid, she was extremely beautiful when she was young, and the king of Qin used to be quite fond of her, but what if the king favored her, she was just a weak woman in this harem, lonely and helpless. There are many women in the harem, and it has always been a place of right and wrong, so the fourth highness Qin Zheng was born early before he had a full moon in his mother's belly, and the four highnesses Qin Zheng was a premature baby, and he has always been weak and sickly.

No matter how beautiful this beauty is, it can't withstand the passage of time, and the beauty is twilight, and there will always be someone who is old and yellow.

When Qin Zheng was very young, his mother was no longer loved by King Qin, and was framed by other women, his mother was a palace maid, and felt that her identity was inferior to others, she was honest, she had not learned anything, and she was not good at words, King Qin asked her what she was worried about, whether someone was harming you, and she couldn't say why, King Qin was angry and beat him into the cold palace, a few years have passed, this beauty does not think about tea and dinner, and washes her face with tears all day long.

This Qin Zheng was born prematurely, he has been frail and sickly since he was a child, and he is a low-eyebrow and pleasing to people on weekdays, and he is submissive to people, and he is the most undesirable prince of King Qin, no matter what happens in the royal family, King Qin will never summon him, what is going on tonight?

Why did the King of Qin summon him?

When Zhao Lie saw Qin Zheng today, he felt that these four highnesses were not as cowardly and incompetent as people rumored, and when he saw them in a hurry, he only felt that these four highnesses were neither humble nor arrogant, and they were even more calm and unhurried, and they had a great demeanor in their gestures. In particular, those eyes, like the silence of a deep pool, with reason and wisdom, look silent and cold on the surface, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging in the depths, and the silent black eyes have a sharp edge, as if they can penetrate the hearts of the world.

Is such a person really as everyone says he is? So cowardly and incompetent?

Zhao Lie couldn't help but stop, looking back at the figure that was getting farther and farther away, the lonely back looked sad in the moonlight, Zhao Lie suddenly had a picture in his mind, he still remembered that he fought with Wei in the past, with heavy casualties, in the battlefield where the corpses were all over the field, and the blood stains were mottled and tragic, there was a wild wolf, the wild wolf walked between the broken finger wreckage under the cold moonlight, it held a piece of flesh and blood in its mouth, it was the internal organs of the dead body, and it also had such silent and sharp eyes.

The outdated and lonely wolf king will one day find his wolf pack, and he will be menacing and occupy the mountain in one fell swoop.

Qin Hao, the king of Qin, was wearing an ink-colored robe embroidered with a black Xuanniao, which was the totem of the Qin State and a symbol of royal power. At this time, Qin Hao, the king of Qin, sat in the hall with deep eyes, and there was also the prime minister of Qin on the side.

Zhao Lie strode into the main hall, he was the only minister in the court who could enter the palace with a sword, which showed the importance that King Qin relied on him.

"Minister, Zhao Lie. See King Qin, long live my king! Zhao Lie knelt on his knees, bowed his head and bowed, and his voice was deep.

"Excuse me, give me a seat!"

"Thank you, my king!"

Zhao Lie got up and sat on the right side of the throne of King Qin, opposite the prime minister of Qin, an old man over fifty years old who was still in good spirits. The prime minister of Qin was dressed in a dark blue robe with gray hair, and he bowed to Zhao Lie, and Zhao Lie returned the salute with a fist.

"My king summoned Zhao Lie to the palace overnight, but there are important military ministers to do?"

"The fiftieth birthday of the King of Qi of the Kingdom of Qi." King Qin's hand was on the table and tapped gently.

This is the way to be a king, if you can't make up your mind, just keep your mouth shut, throw the problem directly to the courtiers, and after the courtiers discuss, weigh their countermeasures, and then take the idea, as long as you say what Aiqing said at the end, it is exactly what the king thinks, and there will be a group of ministers below who will shout, my king is wise and powerful!

Hearing King Qin say this, Zhao Lie's heart was relieved.

The king of Qi sent an invitation to the six countries, inviting the royal families and nobles of each country to attend his birthday banquet, on the surface it was said that he was reconciled with the six countries, but in fact, he wanted each country to send its own prince as a hostage.

In the future, if the two countries do not reconcile and there is a contradiction between them, the monarchs and ministers of the Qi country can say that when my king was at the 50th birthday banquet, he sent an invitation to your country, and your country did not give me the face of the king, and it was obvious that he did not look at my king and the country of Qi in his eyes. At that time, all it takes is a casual reason and excuse to start a war.

Qi was able to unite with other countries and start wars.

Now that the Wei State has been in turmoil, only the Qi State is dominant, and the current strength of the Qin State is far inferior to the Qin State, so the matter of sending the prince of the Qin State to congratulate the King of Qi on his birthday has to be done.

Then the matter of the Fourth Highness being summoned makes sense. King Qin wanted the most unfavored prince, Qin Zheng, the fourth highness of the Qin State, to take Qi as a hostage. This is equivalent to the king of Qin having abandoned this son.

"After so many years, I thought he should be able to grow, but I didn't expect that he was still like his mother and couldn't get on the stage."

King Qin was obviously very dissatisfied with this son.

Zhao Lie's action of drinking was stunned, could it be that he was wrong? What I just saw was all an illusion? Maybe it's really the wrong person, the moonlight tonight is too hazy.

"What does my king mean?" The prime minister of the Qin State spoke, he has always been scheming, he knows how to figure out the meaning of the king, when to say it and when not to say it, he knows it well and knows it well.

The current King of Qin already has countermeasures and candidates in mind, and he doesn't need them as courtiers to give advice, he just needs to ask at the right time and echo King Qin's opinion.

"I thought that the general would escort him to the Qin State, but I think it will be exempted, so the general will randomly pick a general to escort him to the Qi State."

"What my king said is the Fourth Highness Qin Zheng?" Zhao Lie asked.

"Yes!" King Qin nodded.

"What does the general have to discuss with this king?" Seeing that Zhao Lie seemed to have some intention of wanting to speak and stopping, King Qin opened his mouth to ask him.

"The minister doesn't, the minister just thinks that this person can think about it slowly." Zhao Lie pondered his words.

"Why did the general say that? Could it be that you have a better candidate? ”

"I think these four highnesses may be different, but today is different."

King Qin snorted coldly, and the wine bottle made of fine iron was heavily placed on the table, and he said, "It's no different!" ”

"Did General Zhao drink too much? Talking so upside down, is this a dizzy? ”

King Qin had a cold face, he had a little hope for this son, but what Qin Zheng did in the hall just now made him completely dead, just as this son was abolished, Ben was still thinking about her mother's affection, and he felt guilty, and now he was very disappointed.

"General Zhao has always been very smart, why is he so clumsy at this time, I think you are tired, you want to go home and live well." King Qin coldly left a sentence, flicked his sleeves and got up to leave.

Leaving Zhao Lie with a blank face and a dry smile on the prime minister, the two looked at each other silently.
