Everyone in the entire hall was waiting for Zhao Dan's decision.

Zhao Dan was silent for a while, and then said to the two important ministers of Zhao State in front of him: "What do the two Qing families think?" ”

The reason why Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin were specially called was of course due to Zhao Dan's own reasons.

In Lian Po's absence, these two people are the two most powerful ministers in Zhao State, and they are also the two ministers who are most trusted by Zhao Dan.

Now that the war has reached this point, it is very likely that the unified operation against the Qin State will begin in the next two or three years, and at this time, it is very necessary to inform these two people of the matter of Lü Buwei first, and give them two a ventilation, so as not to have any inexplicable accidents when dealing with the Qin State in the future because the two of them do not understand the situation.

Zhao Sheng was of course the first to speak, only to see this Plains King ponder for a moment, then glanced at Zhao Dan, and then said carefully: "King, in the opinion of the minister, this matter is indeed feasible. ”

Zhao Sheng could see that in fact, his own king intended to agree to this matter, so he naturally pushed the boat down.

After a pause, Zhao Sheng continued: "However, Lao Chen feels that this matter still needs to be discussed in detail, and a complete charter can be taken out before it can be implemented." ”

Zhao Dan's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, and he glanced at Zhao Sheng meaningfully.

"Yes, yes, yes." Yu Xin also spoke on the side: "The king, the minister thinks that it is a great thing for the king and the Zhao country to do a good job in this matter, but the minister also agrees with the opinion of Pingyuan Jun and thinks that this matter should be done cautiously. ”

Zhao Dan glanced at Yu Xin again, and began to understand in his heart what kind of medicine these two guys were selling in the gourd, and couldn't help but secretly curse a slippery head.

To put it bluntly, these two guys put on such an attitude, aren't they worried that they will not take responsibility in the future if things go back and forth?

After all, this matter is not big or small, although it is impossible for Zhao Guo to fall into any big crisis if it fails, but if something really happens, this mistake is enough to avoid the position of a Xiangbang or Sikou.

Judging from the current situation of Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin, they naturally don't want to take on this kind of responsibility.

However, although Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin didn't want to take responsibility, their attitude of agreement was actually still here, so Zhao Dan no longer hesitated, and said directly to the three people in front of him: "The widow thinks that Wu Chengjun's plan is very good, so let's do it." ”

As soon as Zhao Dan's decision was made, the other three bowed down at the same time.

After all, the three of them actually knew very well in their hearts that this matter was indeed a low-risk and high-reward matter, and if anyone present came, I am afraid they would make the same decision as Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan looked at Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin again, and said, "As soon as this matter of peace is said, the widow thinks that there will definitely be some ministers who are dissatisfied with this, so these people will be handed over to Pingyuanjun and Yu Qing to explain." Remember, Wu Chengjun's identity is still a secret and must not be revealed. ”

This is also another reason why Zhao Dan brought Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin in.

As far as this peace negotiation is concerned, Zhao Guo's opportunity to exchange Xihe County for Beidi County and suppress Cai Ze in this matter is actually not a loss.

But the problem is that due to the secrecy of Lü Buwei's identity, in the eyes of those ministers of Zhao State, it became Xihe County for Beidi County, which is a bit of a loss.

After all, Zhao Guo doesn't seem to have the motive to say that he must negotiate peace with Qin State now, so when the news is released, some people will definitely not understand.

As the monarch, Zhao Dan must not be able to explain to the ministers one by one, who has ever seen the boss of the company explain his company's strategy to his subordinates in detail? It's just a matter of giving you an order to do it.

In such a situation, Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin, who are the leaders of the Gong clan faction and the cloth Yi faction, and are also the two leaders of the Zhao State political arena, are the best explanations.

Zhao Sheng replied and said to Zhao Dan: "In order to reduce the number of deaths and injuries among the soldiers of my Zhao Kingdom, the king did not hesitate to bear the stigma, which is really admirable to the ministers. ”

Listening to Zhao Sheng's praise, Zhao Dan couldn't help but laugh.

In fact, Zhao Dan is really not so selfless, mainly because he looks at the problem from a different angle.

As a person of this era, in the eyes of Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin, only Zhao is "his own person", like other Qin countries, Qi countries, and Chu countries, they are all "foreigners".

Foreigners, it doesn't matter how many or how few they die.

But Zhao Dan is different as a traverser, in Zhao Dan's view, whether it is Zhao or Qin, in the final analysis, these countries are all countries of the Chinese nation, and the population of all the Seven Heroes of the Warring States is all Chinese, and they are "their own people".

For Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin, what Zhao is now engaged in is a war of conquest.

For Zhao Dan, the current Zhao State is engaged in a war of unification.

Conquest and unification are obviously not the same concept at all.

One is a foreign war, the other is a civil war.

Therefore, Zhao Dan is willing to make some forbearance for the sake of this reunification, after all, it is the people of China who fight and die, so it will definitely be able to die a few less.

In the future, it will be a pity that these guys will have to rely on these guys to expand externally and conquer those real alien races, and they all died in the civil war.

However, the premise of Zhao Dan's decision is, of course, that Zhao State is now strong enough to make this kind of forbearance, if it is said that it was the time of the Battle of Changping seven years ago, then Zhao Dan must have hoped that as many people as the Qin State would die.

Now that Zhao Dandu has made a decision, this meeting is basically coming to an end, and it is not too early, so Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin will leave first.

As for Lü Buwei, he was left behind by Zhao Dan, which made Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin surprised, and they couldn't help but have a new understanding of Lü Buwei's status in Zhao Dan's heart.

So only Zhao Dan and Lu Buwei were left in the hall.

Zhao Dan asked people to bring sobering soup, and smiled at Lu Buwei: "Wu Chengjun has rarely returned to Handan over the years, but it makes the widow miss it a lot." ”

Lu Buwei arched his hand towards Zhao Dan and said, "The minister is afraid, it has been more than eight years since he received the order, but he still hasn't been able to complete the task given by the king, it's really ......."

Zhao Dan laughed and interrupted Lu Buwei's words: "Wu Chengjun doesn't have to be humble, you have also provided a lot of information to the widow over the years, especially the last time the throne of the Qin State was changed, and there were two attacks on Xianyang, your credit is very great, and the widow has always kept it in mind." ”

As soon as Lu Buwei heard this, his heart suddenly settled down a lot.

To be honest, although Lü Buwei has been working hard for Zhao Dan's promise over the years, Lü Buwei is actually quite worried sometimes, what if Zhao Dan doesn't talk and doesn't give himself the position of Xiangbang?

After all, the promise back then was just a simple verbal promise, even if Zhao Dan was really unwilling to fulfill this promise at that time, Lu Buwei would have no choice.

As if seeing Lu Buwei's worries, Zhao Dan smiled slightly, and said to Lu Buwei: "Wu Chengjun, don't worry, what the widow said will never change, and the promise made back then is still valid." As long as Wu Chengjun can help the widow destroy the Qin State, the position of the Prime Minister of the Zhao State will be Wu Chengjun's. ”

There is no one in this world who understands the horror of the Qin State better than Zhao Dan, although the current Qin State seems to be very weak and weak, but for such a country, Zhao Dan still does not dare to take it lightly.

Even though he had already been mentally prepared, Lu Buwei was still excited after hearing these words, and the whole person immediately knelt down towards Zhao Dan and made an out-and-out salute: "Minister Lu Buwei, thank you for the king's grace!" ”

Zhao Dan helped Lu Buwei up with a smile, and said in an accentuated tone: "Wu Chengjun, don't forget, you and the widow are in-laws. ”

……

The next morning, Lü Buwei and Zhao Dan visited the Imperial Garden of Zhao State together, and there were several princes of Zhao State, and of course, the crown prince and princess of Zhao State were indispensable.

After seeing the back garden of Zhao Guo's palace in front of him, Lu Buwei couldn't help but admire again and again, after all, Zhao Dan's so-called garden looks like there are fields, trees and horses, and there are not many flowers, which can also be said to be quite alternative.

After visiting for a long time, a gazebo appeared in front of everyone, Zhao Heng took his wife and younger brothers to the side to play very interestingly, and only Zhao Dan and Lu Buwei were seated in the pavilion.

Zhao Dan sat down in the pavilion and said with a smile: "Wu Chengjun, after you return to Xianyang this time, how are you going to deal with Cai Ze?" ”

The reason why he didn't ask last night was because Zhao Dan felt that Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin didn't need to know so much, or they didn't need to know so much.

Lu Buwei looked obviously confident, and when he heard this, he said to Zhao Dan: "Back to the king, the minister plans to use the strategy of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf this time. ”

"Driving tigers and devouring wolves?" Zhao Dan was visibly stunned.

Isn't there only Lü Buwei and Cai Ze in the current Qin State politics, if Cai Ze is a wolf, then where did the tiger come from to "drive" Lü Buwei?

Lu Buwei said: "The king must have heard of the name Hou. ”

Zhao Dan perked up and said with a smile: "The widow understands, so you want Hou and Cai Ze to fight first?" ”

Lu Buwei smiled: "That's right. As he spoke, he turned his plan to Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan nodded again and again when he heard this, obviously quite satisfied with Lu Buwei's plan, and finally said such a sentence to Lu Buwei.

"Do a good job, the widow and Zhao Guo are your strong backing!"
