A moment later, all the important ministers of the Yan Kingdom were already seated in the hall.

If Pang Xuan, the envoy of Zhao State, appeared here at this moment, then he would definitely be surprised to find that Changguo Junlejian, who had just walked out of the martial balcony side by side with him, actually appeared here.

This is actually not too surprising, because in today's Chinese land, people's hearts for their home country of identity is not so strong, whether the scholars are loyal to a country is often to see whether the country's monarch attaches importance to themselves, that is, the so-called "the king treats me as a countryman, I will repay it with a countryman." ”

To put it bluntly, the scholars are all wage earners, the country is a company, and the two sides belong more to a spirit of contract, and patriots are not absent in this era, but they are not the mainstream, and it can be said that it is a unique phenomenon in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Therefore, although Changguo Junlejian should be from Zhao Guo, but now he is a courtier of Yan State, and he will do his best when he gives advice to Yan State.

When all the ministers gathered, King Yan, who was sitting at the top, was ready to speak.

This King Yan is now over forty years old, wearing a crown of the same style as Zhou Tianzi, wearing a blue-black robe, his face is extremely narrow, his eyes are thin and small, he looks quite old, his eye sockets are deep and the eye circles are black, obviously because he is obsessed with women.

But even so, his gaze was still very sharp, and his frowning brow and thin lips showed that he was not a very patient man.

I saw King Yan cough and said, "Summoning Zhuqing today, it's really a matter of killing Zhao." Do you think this is possible? ”

Several ministers present glanced at each other, and the expressions on their faces were a little strange.

This has just ended the court meeting, King Yan can't wait to call the ministers back, if it comes to this point that the ministers don't know why King Yan is so anxious, then these ministers are really in vain.

After a while, the eyes of all the ministers fell on the current Yan State Xiangbang, Cheng Anjun Gongsun Cao.

Gongsun Cao is now over seventy years old, he looks full of gray hair, his face is also full of wrinkles, and he looks like he may die at any time in his last years.

But everyone present, including King Yan, didn't dare to snub this old man. The reason is also very simple, twelve years ago, it was this Gongsun Cao who killed King Yan Hui, the then monarch of Yan State, and established the current King of Yan on the throne!

Gongsun Cao's murder of the monarch was the second vicious incident in Yan in just a few decades after the incident of "Yan Wang Xuchan gave up to Yu Zizhi", which made Yan's diplomatic reputation fall to the bottom in an instant, led to the rupture of the alliance between Yan and Zhao for decades, and attracted the conquest of the combined forces of Qi and Zhao.

Fortunately, Gongsun Cao formed an alliance with Qin in time, and Qin also sent troops from the rear to contain Zhao, which led to the later Yan-Zhao peace talks, and the princess of Zhao entered Yan for the future.

It is precisely because of this that Gongsun Cao has not lost his phase, but has been firmly holding the power of Yan State to this day, comparable to Zhao Guoquan's minister Fengyangjun Li Dui in the early days of King Zhao Huiwen's reign.

But I don't know if it was because of the fact that the killing of the monarch attracted the Qi and Zhao coalition forces that made Gongsun Cao feel afraid, or maybe he already knew that his time was running out and he no longer loved power, in short, over the years, Gongsun Cao has gradually begun to return power to King Yan, and has become more hidden behind the scenes, rarely expressing any opinions on national affairs, but only acting as a Dinghai Shenpin.

So Gongsun Cao quickly spoke tremblingly: "The king has an order, and the old ministers are all obeyed." ”

With such a sentence, the ministers of the Yan Kingdom in the main hall understood that Lord Xiangbang really didn't plan to get involved in this matter as usual, just let it be as if you like to fight or not, just make a decision for King Yan.

Since this is the case, then whether you want to kill Zhao or not, you only need to convince King Yan.

So Yan Guoyaqing was the first to speak: "In the opinion of the ministers, all the young and strong of the Zhao State are gathered in Changping, and the northern counties are only a few old, weak, sick and disabled. ”

Another important minister of the Yan State, Gao Yangjun Rong Rong, also said: "At this moment, the emptiness in the country of Zhao is a good opportunity to defeat Zhao. If the king raises troops to Zhao, he can destroy Zhao with Qin, so that the five northern counties of Zhao and the hometown of Zhongshan are all in the hands of my Yan country, and the hegemony of King Zhao can be revived! ”

Chestnut belly and Rong Worm have the same opinion on this matter, that is, they should take the opportunity to attack Zhao and seize the northern land of Zhao, so that Yan can regain the glory of King Yan Zhao during his reign twenty or thirty years ago.

However, among the important ministers of the Yan State present, not all of them agreed to attack Zhao, for example, the youngest Changguo Junle among the people present did not agree.

Don't look at the young age of Le Jian, but after all, there is a father like Le Yi, and under the family history and words and deeds, Le Jian is actually quite a father.

The reason why Chestnut and Rong Yi supported Zhao was very clear in Le Jian's heart, it was nothing more than wanting to gain more credit by attacking Zhao and then be promoted to the rank of lord.

But the premise of being promoted to the rank of lord is that Yan Guo will definitely be able to win, what if Yan Guo can't win?

At that time, Yan Guo will be in big trouble!

Le Jian has not forgotten what his father Le Yi told him before he died.

"Yan and Zhao are two countries, peace is beneficial to both countries, and Qin and Qi benefit from separation, I must remember this matter, but if Qin and Qi are not destroyed, then Yan Zhao must not be allowed to start a war lightly!"

The young Chang Guojun was convinced of his father's words, so he felt that he had to do something.

He must stop this war that will not benefit either Yan or Zhao in any way!

So after Rong Yan, the third person in the music room spoke: "Yaqing and Gao Yangjun's words are fallacious!" Zhao is a powerful country in the world. Since the Wuling King Hu Fu cavalry shooting, the Zhao army has destroyed Zhongshan, collected the building trouble, chased Lin Hu, attacked Qi Wei, and won the victory in all directions, and its strength was not worthy of the Qin State. And with the strength of the Qin State, there was still a defeat with Zhao first, and now it is impossible to defeat Zhao Yu Changping. How does the king think my Yan army compares to the Qin army? In the opinion of the ministers, it is absolutely impossible to kill Zhao! ”

This passage from Lejian simply means that Zhao Guo has been fighting the Quartet for so many years, and even the people of Qin can only fight with Zhao Guo, and the combat effectiveness of our Yan State is far worse than that of Qin State, so it is better to pull down the matter of killing Zhao.

As soon as Le Jian said this, Li Bei was a little unconvinced, and immediately retorted: "Although the Zhao army is strong, but at this moment, the Zhao country has no soldiers, so why should my Yan country be afraid of it?" ”

Le Jian snorted, and also retorted not to be outdone: "There are still 50,000 soldiers in the five northern counties of Zhao today, but it is for the king of Zhao to prevent my Yan country and the northern Xiongnu, how can Yaqing say that Zhao has no soldiers?" ”

Rong Yan frowned, and also jumped out to help: "Zhao Guo is only 50,000 soldiers, and my Yan country's army is several times this, why be afraid?" I want to break the Zhao army, but it's not a matter of time. ”

Lejian also raised his eyebrows, and it seemed that he obviously planned to carry out the verbal battle to the end: "Sun Tzu once said in the Art of War, 'There are not many soldiers, but the value is fine,' how can Gao Yangjun determine the victory or defeat of the two countries by the number of soldiers?" This is the way to self-defeat. ”

Rong Yan was furious and shouted, "Le Jian! You are just a yellow-mouthed child, and you dare to blow so nonsense in front of me! ”

Lejian sneered and said, "Rong Oyster! But Zhao Guodu Pingjun is a defeated general, and he dares to point out the country like this in front of the king? ”

······

The young Changguo Jun Lejian is worthy of being the son of General Le Yi, and he has the upper hand in the battle between the two heroes with one enemy and two tongues.

There was an awkward silence in the hall.

In desperation, the two important ministers of the Yan Kingdom had no choice but to turn their attention to the head of the Yan King for help.

You must know that whether it is a chestnut belly or a glorious worm, these two ministers are very loyal to King Yan, and they can be said to be King Yan's henchmen.

The reason why the two of them jumped out so quickly to support Fa Zhao this time was also because they had received a hint from the Yan King before.

But what I never expected was that Chestnut and Rong Worm combined could only say that they were a happy room with full mouth cannon skills, which was a little embarrassing.

So the two of them looked at King Yan with this expression in desperation, which meant "King, we really can't do it, or - you can go on it yourself?" ”
