Chapter 256: Jia died, and Zhao was not afraid
Time has passed, and ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Since Zhao Jia was aggressive in the Yan Palace, the Yan King never summoned Zhao Jia again, even if Zhao Jia took the initiative to ask to see him, the Yan King refused on the grounds that he was unwell.
In this way, Zhao Jia and others were placed in the post house, and people who were friendly to Zhao came to visit every day, hoping to move Zhao Jia to help Yan Guo recapture the land of Dukang.
It's a pity that although Zhao Jia is very friendly to these people, as long as it involves the issue of the ownership of the land of the governor, he will never let go.
As a result, Jiang Qu and others did not make the slightest progress within ten days.
King Yan gradually distanced himself from Jiangqu and others, and began to rely on Cai Ze and the people who were friendly to Qin in the court.
Yanwang Palace.
"King, the envoy to Zhao has returned, and is waiting outside to see you."
King Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, and shouted: "Let him come and see the widow quickly." ”
It didn't take long for Cai Niao, the envoy of Zhao State, to come in and salute King Yan: "The minister greets the king!" ”
King Yan hurriedly stepped forward to support Cai Niao, and asked with an expectant face: "Qing has gained anything from envoying Zhao Guo this time?" ”
Cai Niao turned his head to look at the eunuchs standing on the left and right, but he didn't speak, and King Yan saw this, and immediately waved his hand and ordered everyone to leave.
Cai Niao saw that there was no one else in the house, so he said a little excitedly: "As expected, King Zhao did have a discord with Zhao Jia, King Zhao wanted Yan to recapture the land of Du Kang to balance Yan and Qi, but Zhao Jia wanted to let Qi get the land of Du Kang to stabilize the position of Zhou Zi. ”
Immediately, Cai Niao informed King Yan of everything that happened in King Zhao's palace.
"King Zhao's intention is to prepare to get rid of Zhao Jia?"
"Zhao Jiake is the only son of King Zhao, if Zhao Jia dies, who will inherit the unification of Zhao in the future!"
Hearing this news suddenly, even the knowledgeable King Yan felt a little chill down his spine, and there were still some doubts in his heart.
Cai Niao said with a smile: "The minister separated his father and son with the matter of King Zhao Wuling, and King Zhao had long been afraid of Zhao Jia, and when he heard the words of the minister, he suddenly started to kill, as for the unification of Zhao State, he has Zhao Jia's son Zhao Zheng inherited. ”
"Compared to his own net worth and life and the entire Zhao Kingdom, what is a mere heir, isn't it common for fathers and sons and brothers to turn against each other for the throne?"
When King Yan heard this, he dispelled the doubts in his heart.
But soon, King Yan said with a worried face: "Now that Zhao Jia has an outstanding reputation, if he suddenly dies in Yan State, don't say that the whole Zhao Kingdom will definitely refuse to give up, and Chu and Qi will inevitably raise troops to attack." ”
"At that time, Yan Guo not only lost the hope of the world, but also had the disaster of destroying the country. For the sake of supervising the land and bringing such a disaster to the Yan Kingdom, I am afraid that some of the gains outweigh the losses. ”
Cai Niao hurriedly said: "The king can blame the Qin State for Zhao Jia's death." ”
King Yan shook his head and said: "No matter how strict it is, as long as it is done, it may leak the news, and neither the widow nor the Yan Kingdom can afford the consequences of leaking the news." ”
"And even if the people of the world believe that Zhao Jia died at the hands of the Qin State, after all, there is still an accident in the Yan Kingdom, and it will still give the rest of the countries a handle to attack the Yan Kingdom!"
Cai Niao frowned, and then said: "What the king is worried about is that after killing Zhao Jia, the matter may be revealed, if Zhao Jia is really killed by the assassins of the Qin State, the Zongyan Kingdom will have a little trouble, and it must be within the scope of the king's bearing." ”
King Yan stared at Cai Niao and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Cai Niao said with a smile: "Have you forgotten that the elder brother of the minister was an official in the Qin State, and even if he worked hard for the king after returning to the Yan Kingdom, he must still have been unable to completely cut off contact with the Qin State." ”
"The Qin State hates Zhao Jia to the bone, and has long wanted to get rid of it at any cost, if the king sends his ministers and brothers to secretly communicate with the Qin State, he only needs to relax the protection of Zhao Jia and others, and his own Qin people will help the king get rid of this person."
"King Zhao wants to use the hand of the king to get rid of Zhao Jia, but the king can borrow the hand of the Qin people to remove himself from it."
"In this way, even if the incident happened to the Qin State, my Yan Kingdom is at most just improperly guarded!"
King Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "This plan is very wonderful, and few people are happy with it!" ”
"King, Xiangguo will ask to see you!"
At this moment, the voice of the eunuch came from outside the door, and King Yan couldn't help frowning slightly, signaling Cai Niao to avoid it first.
After a while, King Yan summoned Jiang Qu and asked, "Xiangguo is here, why is it here?" ”
Jiang Qu bowed down and said: "The city guards inspected various places and found that many Qin caravans have entered the city recently, and most of these Qin people are powerful and powerful, and they are not like serious merchants. ”
"Now there are more and more Qin people in the city, in order to ensure the safety of Pingqi Jun, I hope that the king will order the temporary expulsion of Qin people!"
Qin Guo hated Zhao Jia to the bone, and everyone in the world knew it.
coincided with the time when Zhao Jia sent an envoy to Yan State, a large number of Qin State caravans came to Yan State one after another, how could it not arouse the suspicion of Jiang Qu.
In Jiang Qu's view, even if Zhao Jia did not agree with Yan Guo to recapture the land of Du Kang, he must ensure the personal safety of the other party, so as not to bring trouble to Yan Guo.
When King Yan heard this, he was furious, pointed at Jiangqu and scolded: "Zhao Jia'er bullied the widow too much, you didn't share the worries of the widow for Yan Xiang, but thought about Zhao Jia'er's safety. ”
"The widow wants to ask, whether you are Yan Xiang or Zhao Xiang!"
Facing the angry King Yan, Jiang Qu felt panicked in his heart, hurriedly knelt down, and said: "Although the minister is kind to Zhao Guo, it is also for the sake of Yan Guosheji, not for his own selfish interests. ”
King Yan sneered: "If it weren't for the support of Zhao Guo, you thought you would be able to hold the position of Yan Xiang?" ”
"Since Zhao Guo did not keep his promise first, there is no need for the widow to keep his promise, from now on, you don't have to ask about the city guards, if the widow wants to raise troops to recapture the land of Dukang, you only need to prepare grain and grass."
Jiang Qu was shocked, and hurriedly advised: "Zhao has not yet agreed, if you send troops to recapture the land of Du Kang at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that Zhao and Qi will not jointly attack Yan, and please think twice!" ”
King Yan said angrily: "The widow's mind has been decided, if you dare to persuade again, you will leave the seal ribbon home to farm, and you will have the rest of the talents to take up the position of Yan Xiang to share the worries of the widow!" ”
Jiang Qu didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to retreat.
It wasn't until he moved away from the canal that Cai Niao came out from behind the screen and asked, "Does the king really want to raise troops to recapture the land of Dukang?" ”
King Yan nodded heavily and said, "Since King Zhao hopes that Yan and Qi will be balanced, and the widows will send troops to seize the land of the governor, Zhao State will only verbally reprimand at most, and will never send troops to help Qi State." ”
"And as soon as Zhao Jia dies, Zhao will inevitably go to war with Qin, and at that time, he will not have time to take care of the war between Yan and Qi."
"This is a godsend, and the widow should go all out!"
Cai Niao listened to the blood boiling, and said in a deep voice: "The king has the ambition to recover the lost land, how dare the ministers not serve the death force? ”
King Yan whispered: "You just need to let the assassins of the Qin State kill Zhao Jia, and let the Yan Kingdom take it out of this matter, if Zhao Jia dies, the Zhao State will not be afraid!" ”
