Chapter 3 Zhao Dan calculates the princes
In the first year of King Zhao Xiaocheng, in 266 BC, the surrounding states of Qi, Tian Jian and other vassal states all sent envoys to Zhao State. At this time, King Zhao was inspecting the people's livelihood at this time.
Zhao Dan's determination to change his mind was also carried out quietly, after all, the princes were almost there, and they began to achieve remarkable results! Not only military, but also economic and civilian power, are they all completely new in their original lives?
At this time, Zhao Dan began to work in the field non-stop, and kept working? After all, only if you work can you gain the support of the people.
At this time, Zhao Dan's subordinate Zhao Sheng and them came to see him, and at this time Zhao Dan was curious about what they would suddenly appear.
Their group also fell to the ground on their knees, saluted Zhao Dan, and said, "I've seen the king." ”
Zhao Dan stopped his work, and then said to them with a smile: "Excuse me, you came to see the widow at this time, is there anything wrong?" ”
At this time, they opened their mouths and said: "King Qi, the envoys of the Qin State and the envoys of the princes and countries have all arrived?" Mr. Lin and General Li Mu, let's ask the king to discuss what to do next? ”
Zhao Dan secretly thought in his heart that it was really time, if he didn't come sooner or later, he would come at this time, he would really come!.
Zhao Dan also smiled and said, "That's okay!" Lead the way! ”
These soldiers, protecting him Zhao Dan, came to the palace. Zhao Dan also smiled when he saw them.
At this time, they also saw Zhao Dan, dressed as a peasant, and full of peasant breath!
At this time, Zhao Dan looked at them and found a place to sit down.
At this time, they saluted, and suddenly said to Zhao Dan, "See the king, the king Wan'an." ”
Zhao Dan also said with a smile: "Don't be polite, you said that the envoys have arrived, and the widow thinks that it is really time for them to come." That's right! Who are the people sent by the princely states this time! ”
At this time, Lin Xiangru and they also smiled and said to Zhao Wangdan: "The ministers only know that this time the Qin State sent Fan Ju, the Chu State sent Qu Yuan, the Qi State sent Tian Qi, the Wei State sent Long Yangjun, and the Yan State sent Su Qin. ”
At this time, Zhao Dan was too, thinking about it for a long time, he also felt that his own enemy was not just the Qin State. And the surrounding countries, it seems that they don't have much kindness? Suddenly I feel like there are so many opponents!
At this time, Zhao Dan also thought of a way, a way to show weakness, only by showing weakness to the other party can he take it lightly, and he will have the opportunity to calculate them, and now he wants to compete with Qin and other vassal states in the world, first of all, he has to make them unable to understand their own layout. I can't see my own personality clearly. to win.
At this moment, Zhao Dan also smiled and said to them: "The princes and countries have all sent people, if I ignore them, everyone in the world will feel outnumbered." If I don't know how to respect the envoys, it will definitely make people talk about it when the time comes, and everyone in the world will have different opinions about me? Moreover, Confucius has clouds, and friends come from afar, and he is very happy! Therefore, the widow decided to hand over the matter of this reception to Uncle Wang, hoping that Uncle Wang could fulfill his mission and complete this task. ”
Zhao Dan's words also made them admire, but it was impossible for the envoys not to meet all the time, and they would meet sooner or later, so how to meet next, but they were already stumped!
At this moment, Lin Xiangru also smiled and said to Zhao Dan: "The king is wise, but if the king doesn't see the princes, the envoys of the princes will say that the king, you look down on them, and the subordinates think that the king still has to meet them this time, after all, they are all representatives, the countries of the envoys, the king suggests that you take the initiative to meet with them?" ”
At this time, Zhao Sheng also nodded, and said with a smile: "I think that what Doctor Lin said is extremely true, the minister believes that the minister cannot represent the Zhao State, and the king represents the attitude of my Zhao State and the surrounding countries, which will affect the survival of the people of my Great Zhao, and the minister supports the opinion of Doctor Lin Xiangru." ”
At this time, Zhao Dan also smiled and said, "Okay! Then the widow will see it! After all, it's like you guys said before? They themselves have always represented their own country, and if they don't see it, they don't make sense of it! Uncle Wang, go down and make arrangements! By the way, I told them, when I rest for a while, the widow will invite them to dinner and taste my Dazhao food. ”
Zhao Sheng took Zhao Dan's royal decree, said a promise, and then chose to leave this place, and then entertained the envoys.
At this moment, Lin Xiangru also said with a smile: "King Shengming." However, the king, this time Weichen felt that their own goal was not simple. ”
Zhao Dan also said with a smile: "Why don't you understand that the widow may not be groundless, not to mention that their goal is not like this?" But there is no way for others to come to the widow, they are here to participate in the widow's enthronement ceremony, which is a good intention on the surface, so the widow can not refuse, the widow must go this time, after all, they are all envoys of various countries, although they have their own ghosts, but what should be done, we still have to do it. ”
Lin Xiangru and they finally understood, why did the king of their own family choose to meet the people of all the princes at this time, and now they understand? The sooner you meet the envoys, the more you can show Zhao Dan's respect for them, which is also the cleverness of this Zhao Dan.
They also said a word about the king's wisdom at this moment.
At this moment, Zhao Dan also said with a smile: "A person, especially a king, if he can be truly wise, would it be good?" It's a pity that people are not saints and sages, and I am also a human being, so you go down first, prepare more food for the widows, and take out the best food of our Da Zhao, I believe they can feel the sincerity of my Da Zhao, you can go and prepare if you have nothing to do, right? ”
Zhao Dan watched them leave, so he wanted to confuse the surrounding princes, so he himself prepared a drama later, a scene of greed for money and lust.
A wise place for a monarch is to learn to hide his thoughts and show his character, and this time this group of princes came here, it gave Zhao Dan a chance, and he couldn't let go of such an opportunity, so he decided to show them on purpose.
If a person underestimates the enemy, the surrounding countries will become stupid and become like this, and Zhao Dan's wit is to make them vague now, and at the same time let them not be able to figure out their own pulse. When the time comes, it will be much easier to dominate the world.
Fighting for world domination is a long road, especially in troubled times, and it is a world of great contention like the Warring States, any fault. It is easy to bring disaster to their own country, and when the monarch of the country ascends the throne, there will naturally be enemies, and this is the troubled times.
And Zhao Dan has a lot of enemies, so he has to hide his personality, and when the enemy can't understand him, when he wants something, it's much easier for him.
At this time, Zhao Dan put on his own clothes, took off his work clothes, and came to the palace next to Longtai. Preparing for your first show?
At this moment, Zhao Dan understood that it was not easy to meet, and the people around the princes would soon appear, and a real secret competition had just begun.
