On the second day after the good news of the Chu people's capture of Wancheng was transmitted back to Handan, Zhao Dan met with Pang Xuan, who had returned from Yan State, in the main hall of Longtai.

Pang Xuan's face was a little tired, and it was obvious that this journey was quite an easy journey for this old man who was over sixty years old.

In fact, after Pang Yuan left Wuyang City, the capital of Yan Kingdom, he rushed back to Handan almost non-stop.

As soon as he saw Zhao Dan, Pang Xuan immediately couldn't wait to say to Zhao Dan: "King, the king of Yan has no intention of living in peace with my Zhao country, or he will send troops to attack my Zhao country in a few days, and the king must be wary of the Yan people!" ”

Zhao Dan didn't have much fluctuation after listening to Pang Xuan's report, just smiled and said, "At this time, no one knows it, Pang Qing doesn't need to be anxious. By the way, this is—" Zhao Dan looked behind Pang Xuan.

And Pang Xuan didn't come back by himself, and Pang Xuan was followed by an old man who was also quite generous and looked different in age from Pang Xuan.

After seeing Zhao Dan, the old man saluted respectfully: "Ju Xin has seen the king. ”

Although he was already mentally prepared when he saw Ju Xin enter the hall, when Ju Xin signed up for his own number, a smile still involuntarily appeared from the corner of Zhao Dan's mouth, and at the same time, information about Ju Xin also began to appear in Zhao Dan's mind.

Ju Xin, a native of Zhao Guoren, a soldier scholar among the hundreds of schools, is the author of the book "Drama", Zhao Wuling King was an official in Zhao during the period, and later ran out of Yan State because of the Dune Palace, and was reused by a generation of Ming Jun Yan Zhao Wang, and Changguo Jun Le Yi and others assisted Yan Zhao Wang, creating a prosperous Yan State more than 20 years ago.

After King Yan Hui, the son of King Yan Zhao, ascended the throne, Le Yi's military power was seized, and Ju Xin was also suspicious because he spoke for Le Yi, so he had to resign and live in seclusion in Yan Kingdom.

Such a talent, now he has finally returned to Zhao State!

Although Zhao Dan gave Pang Xuan this task, in fact, Zhao Dan had no idea in his heart whether Pang Xuan could persuade Ji Xin to come out of the mountain again to help Zhao Guo.

After all, judging from this resume, after Ju Xin resigned, he would rather live in seclusion in Yan Guo than return to his motherland Zhao Guo, which shows that Ju Xin has a lot of feelings for Yan Guo.

In Zhao Dan's memory, this drama Xin had to be hung by the monarchs of Yan for several years, and then when he was in his seventies, he went out of the mountain to help Yan Wangxi, led the Yan army to conquer Zhao State, and then was defeated by Pang Xuan, who was in danger, and led the Zhao army, and the drama Xin himself died at the hands of his old friend Pang Xuan...

Of course, since Ju Xin has appeared in Zhao Guo's Longtai, there should be no possibility of old friends killing each other between him and Pang Xuan.

After all, Zhao Dan sent Pang Xuan to summon Ju Xin back to Zhao Guo to be an official, if Ju Xin was unwilling, then he would not appear in front of Zhao Dan.

So Zhao Dan smiled and said: "The drama doesn't have to be polite, the widow gets the help of the drama, it is the blessing of the widow, and the blessing of the Zhao country!" ”

Although judging from the historical record, this drama Xin is obviously worse than Pang Xuanlai, but this does not prevent the fact that drama Xin is indeed a great talent, so drama Xin is willing to return to Zhao State as an official, and Zhao Dan is still very happy.

Anyway, there is no shortage of people who can fight in Zhao Guo now, Lian Po, Lecheng, and Pang Xuan can basically take charge of each of these three on their own, plus Li Mu, who doesn't know where he is now, and Zhao Kuo, who may be able to practice after honing and honing, don't worry about this problem in twenty or thirty years.

The reason why Zhao Dan recruited Ju Xin back was mainly because he valued the other two identities of Ju Xin - a soldier and scholar, and the former important minister of Zhao State!

What does a scholar represent? Of course, it means knowledge!

Knowledge is a good thing, and it is also the aspect that Zhao Dan values most about drama Xin.

Some of Zhao Dan's plans are about to fall on this drama Xin.

So Zhao Dan immediately opened his mouth with a smile: "The widow has heard that the drama has been living in seclusion in Yan Country for many years and concentrating on books, I don't know if it can make the widow take a look?" ”

Zhao Dan just wants to see the "Play" written by Ju Xin.

The book "Drama" has been lost in later generations, only exists in legends, in fact, books like "Drama" that have long been lost are not uncommon in later generations of China.

This is mainly because these ancient authors regarded their theoretical works as peerless secret books, and would rather take them to the grave than pass them on to outsiders, resulting in the gradual dispersion of these theories and works over time, and finally disappeared.

This is definitely a loss of Chinese culture.

But although the authors attach great importance to their theories and knowledge, they will not hide their secrets in front of a king like Zhao Dan.

During the Warring States Period, a hundred schools of thought bloomed, in essence, everyone put forward their own ideas of governing the country and hoped to be adopted by the kings, and on the one hand, they wrote books to spread their ideas, and on the other hand, they were also to be able to dedicate books to the king when they were appreciated by the king.

After all, there is a saying that goes like this - "learn to become a literary and martial artist, and the goods are with the emperor's family", if you don't show your talent and knowledge in front of the monarch, who knows if you are a real cow or a braggart?

For example, the famous "Soldier Saint" Sun Wu was recommended by Wu Zixu, an important minister of Wu State, to present the thirteen articles of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" to Wu Wang Lu, and thus got the reuse of He Lu and became the commander of the Wu army.

So as soon as Zhao Dan's request was raised, Ju Xin bowed down and said: "The king has an order, and the ministers are all obedient." ”

After a while, several guards carried a large pile of bamboo slips from outside the hall to Zhao Dan and put them in front of Zhao Dan.

Although there was already a silk book at this time, the silk book was a very precious and expensive writing material, even a Zhao monarch like Zhao Dan would only use it when writing secret letters and confidential information.

Even Zhao Dan's identity can't afford to consume, and it is even more impossible for an opposition person like Ju Xin to use silk books as writing materials.

Ju Xin pointed to the hundreds of catties of bamboo slips and said to Zhao Dan: "King, this is the book written by the minister when he was in seclusion in recent years. ”

Zhao Dan nodded, picked up a bamboo slip from the top, and began to read the "Drama".

After watching it for a while, Zhao Dan found that Ju Xin's "Drama" is not just about military affairs, but also contains a lot of internal affairs, governing the country and even life.

But this is not surprising, after all, many things can be touched, such as "shopping malls are like battlefields", and "governing a big country is like cooking small fresh", and "The Art of War" is a must-have reading for many big businessmen in later generations.

In general, after Zhao Dan watched it for a while, he thought of four words - unclear.

But Zhao Dan didn't read this "drama" for too long, after all, these dozens or hundreds of catties of bamboo slips have to see when they went, and they can't keep hanging people here.

Zhao Dan quickly closed the bamboo slip in his hand, and said to the drama with a smile: "What the drama says, if the words are really beautiful, thought-provoking, it makes the widow like seeing the sun through the clouds, and there is a feeling of opening up!" ”

This is to put a high hat on the drama, why can you understand what this writing is after reading the beginning? Unscientific!

But... Anyway, you don't need money to wear a top hat, and you can win people's hearts when you open your mouth.

When Ju Xin heard this, he also showed an excited look, and hurriedly saluted again, and said respectfully: "How can Ju Xin be virtuous, and the king is also praised." ”

As a person who used to be a guide in the political arena of Yan State, like Zhao Dan's high-hat words just now, Ji Xin has actually heard a lot a lot.

But the same words, coming out of Zhao Dan's mouth, are really different from saying them from someone else's mouth!

Who is Zhao Dan? That is the monarch who is the second most powerful country today, and the only king in the whole world who can wrestle with Qin Wangji, and may even pull Qin Wangji down from the damn first throne in the world!

When it comes to Zhao Dan's status, there are too many things that are represented.

Any scholar, as long as he can get a "good" word from Zhao Dan, then this scholar will definitely become famous all over the world in an instant.

Therefore, when Zhao Dan's words came out, even for people like Ji Xin, who had seen strong winds and waves, they were all overjoyed, and they instantly felt fluttering.

Don't blame other people's dramas for not being angry, even if it is put in the future generations, if anyone gets a high hat praised by Xi Da or ***, it is not a fluttering thing, it is really floating directly to the sky!

Zhao Dan looked at Ji Xin's reaction, and knew in his heart that it was almost time.

The atmosphere is almost set off, and it's time to discuss what official position to give to Ji Xin.

Just as Zhao Dan was about to speak, the eunuch of Zhao State, Ling Mixian, suddenly appeared in the Longtai Hall in a hurry, and whispered to Zhao Dan a bad news.

Yan Guo, send troops!
