Just when Zhao Kuo and Wang Ji were in charge of this major event that was destined to shake the whole world in Hedong County, Zhao Dan, the monarch of Zhao State, who was hundreds of miles away, was not idle.

At this moment, Zhao Dan was listening to Mi Xian's report.

"Great King, according to the intelligence of the Yan Kingdom, the King of Yan is still seriously ill at the moment, but Rong Yi has been appointed as the new prime minister, and he is trying to win people's hearts."

Zhao Dan's brows began to wrinkle when he heard this.

This Rong Worm is the commander of the Yan Army when Yan attacked Zhao last time.

After a long while, Zhao Dan spoke: "Miqing, in your opinion, can this Rong Worm be used by Empress Yan?" ”

Mi Xian replied: "The king, Rong Yan has always hated Zhao, and he is good friends with Gongzi An, in the opinion of the minister, it should be difficult to be used by the Empress Yan." ”

Zhao Dan nodded.

In fact, Zhao Dan also asked like this, after all, Zhao Dan also knew that the real pro-Zhao faction in Yan Kingdom was actually Le Yi's son Changguo Jun Lejian.

Le Yi was originally from Zhao State, and half of the Le clan people are now following Le Jian in Yan Kingdom, and half of them are following Le Yi's clan brother Le Cheng in Zhao State, and Le Cheng is also a general of Zhao State, so the Le clan is naturally closer to Zhao State.

Zhao Dan knocked on the table and said to Mi Xian: "In this way, the later King Yan dies, the more disadvantageous it will be to the widow and the Zhao State." ”

Now it is obvious that it is impossible for King Yan to let Empress Yan's son Gongzi Ke succeed to the throne, and the eldest son Gongzi An is the best choice in King Yan's heart.

Gongzi An is also the backing of Rong Yan, with the support of Yan Wang and Gongzi An, Rong Yan should soon be able to defeat the Yan State pro-Zhao faction led by Le Jian.

If it weren't for these pro-Zhao ministers, Zhao Dan would inevitably have many twists and turns and accidents if he wanted to implement his plan for Yan Guo.

Mixian nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Zhao Dan thought about it for a while and didn't come up with any good way.

After all, being seriously ill in bed does not mean that he will die immediately, although Zhao Dan knows that this Yan King is about to hang up, but the problem is that the history books do not say when this Yan King will die.

After a long while, Zhao Dan said: "You will send someone to inform Lejian that if the situation is critical, you will first bring Yanhou's mother and son to Zhao Guo, and if Lejian is in danger of life, he can also come together." ”

In Zhao Dan's opinion, it was not a matter for Jin Wen Gongji Chong'er to be able to live in exile abroad for so many years, and let Empress Yan's mother and son live in exile in Zhao for a year and a half.

Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood. As long as King Yan dies, with the current strength of Zhao State, it is not a matter of minutes to support Gongzi Ke, the son of Empress Yan?

Mixian bowed and said, "Oh." ”

After a while, the two young men walked into the main hall and bowed to Zhao Dan, who was sitting on the throne, "I've seen the king." "See, see the great, the king."

Zhao Dan raised his head and showed a hint of a smile: "It turns out that you and the two are here, let's sit down." ”

It was none other than Xun Qian's two proud disciples, Li Si and Han Fei.

The two sat down very stiffly.

Zhao Dan looked at the two young people in front of him with great interest, who were not too different in age from himself.

These are two treasures.

Needless to say, Li Si is the future prime minister of the Qin State and a first-class talent.

Han Feizi, the master of the Legalist family, although his official position in history is not as good as Li Si, his influence has killed Li Si dozens of streets.

Until thousands of years later, in modern society, we can still see the application of Han Feizi's thought of governing the country in all aspects, and many people believe that Han Fei is the ultimate winner in the great debate of a hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Since Zhao Dan had seen these two guys, he didn't plan to let them go.

To put it mildly, even if such a talent is locked up, it can't be cheapened by other countries, especially the Qin State.

At first, Zhao Dan originally planned to let these two guys follow their master Xun Qian to run this Huaxia Academy, and then consider giving them some suitable official positions to exercise.

But to Zhao Dan's surprise, Zhao Dan himself was not in a hurry, but Li Si and Han Fei were very anxious.

It's only been a few months, and Li Si and Han Fei have already sent a letter to Zhao Dan through their master Xun Quan, hoping to get an official and a half position.

That's why Zhao Dan summoned them today.

Zhao Dan looked at Li Si and Han Fei's restrained appearance, and he was also a little funny in his heart, and at the same time a little complacent.

Even if these two famous cattle people in history, don't they have to be respectful and salute when they see the widow?

With this dark mood, Zhao Dan asked with a smile: "How is the progress of the Huaxia Academy now?" ”

For the construction of this Huaxia School Palace, Zhao Dan has invested a lot of resources.

After all, in Zhao Dan's view, this is the cultural holy land of China in the future, which can be called a totem-like existence, and such a school palace must of course be managed well.

Therefore, Zhao Dan did not simply carve out a piece of land and build a few simple buildings, but to strive for perfection and a scale comparable to that of a university in later generations.

Zhao Dan asked, Li Si and Han Fei naturally didn't dare to slack off, and Li Si hurriedly replied: "Back to the king, it is still under construction." ”

According to prior estimates, it will take at least two years for the Huaxia School Palace to be officially opened, and it will take five to six years for all the buildings and supporting facilities to be fully completed.

Of course Zhao Dan knows this, and the reason why he talked about this matter is just to find some opening topics.

Sure enough, after a few words, Li Si and Han Fei's expressions gradually relaxed.

Zhao Dan began to get to the point: "I heard that the widow and the two of you want to be officials in Zhao State?" ”

As soon as Li Si heard this, he hurriedly pulled Han Feizi, and the two stood up at the same time, saluted Zhao Dan, and then Li Si said: "Exactly, please also ask Wang Yusi and Han Fei a chance." ”

Zhao Dan nodded slightly, and said, "In this case, do you and the two of you have any own thoughts about official positions?" ”

Li Si and Han Fei seemed to have obviously discussed this question, and almost immediately replied: "Since Si and Han Fei are courtiers, they are naturally sent by the king. ”

Zhao Dan thought for a while, and then said with a smile: "Li Si, since this is the case, then the widow ordered you to go to Tunliu County, Shangdang County, as the county order, are you willing?" ”

Li Si was overjoyed when he heard this, and saluted Zhao Dan again: "Thank you, King!" ”

Although the county magistrate is not a big official, Li Si is only twenty-five years old this year, and he was only a small official before, and the position of county magistrate has already made Li Si overjoyed.

Zhao Dan glanced at Han Fei again, and then said with a smile: "Han Fei, I heard that you have a lot of knowledge about the strategy of governing the country, so it is better to stay with the widow and serve any of them." ”

The official position of the servant was actually only started in the Qin Dynasty, simply put, it was a personal staff who followed the emperor, although there was no actual authority, but because of the emperor's left and right, in and out of the court and Wen Dynasty politics, it was equivalent to the prime minister in history with the evolution of time and even for a long time after the Jin Dynasty, which can be described as a high power.

Originally, Zhao Guo also had a similar position, that is, Yushi, that is, the position of the original Lou Chang.

After Lou Chang's death, the imperial history is still vacant, but Zhao Dan no longer intends to appoint a new imperial history, but plans to replace it with a new servant.

Of course, after such a change, it is impossible for Shizhong to be one of the six ministers of Zhao State, and it is impossible for Han Feizi to be the only one in Shizhong, but to a certain extent, it also disperses the power of Yushi and concentrates it in the hands of Zhao Dan.

When Han Fei heard this, he was naturally very excited, bowed to Zhao Dan, and stammered for a long time before he could finish saying a word of thanks.

No way, who made Han Fei stutter naturally.

After the two of them retreated, Zhao Dan also felt some emotion in his heart.

This time, the future Xiangbang of the Qin State and the ideological guide of the Qin State have fallen into the hands of the widows, and this time, the widows want to see how the Qin State turns the tables!
