Zhao Jia's Mansion Study.

"Can Gongzi be sure that the Qin State will send troops to help the Yan Kingdom?"

Li Si frowned slightly.

He is not a traverser after all, and it is impossible for him to be like a god, so naturally he will not be as anxious as Zhao Jia.

The ideas of King Zhao and Zhao Yan are not unreasonable.

Over the years, due to the Prince Chu of Qin, coupled with the deliberate goodwill of Zhao, the relationship between Qin and Zhao can be regarded as glue-like.

In this case, if Zhao only captured a few Yan cities, Qin might not send troops to attack Zhao.

Zhao Jia was silent.

After a long time, he said: "Qin is the country of tigers and wolves, and after many years of recuperation, how can it always be dormant? ”

"Now that the King of Qin has stabilized the situation in the court, the Qin State has long sharpened its knives, what is lacking is just an opportunity, I can't help but take precautions."

Li Si and Fan Zeng looked at each other, and finally shook their heads helplessly.

Now Zhao Jia's situation is not good, although he has a good relationship with Lian Po and Li Mu, and he also has some prestige in the army, his foundation is still too thin after all.

Mo said that it was Zhao Dan, who had been in charge of Zhao State for many years, even if it was the crown prince Zhao Yan, his deep foundation was far beyond Zhao Jia's.

Zhao Jia didn't think about seizing power as soon as possible to take charge of Zhao State, but unfortunately Zhao Jia today doesn't have that ability at all.

Mo said that Zhao Dan and Zhao Yan would not agree, and most of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were towards Zhao Yan, so it was impossible to give Zhao Jia a chance.

Even if it is Lian Po and Li Mu, who have an irreversible relationship, it is impossible to help Zhao Jia seize power at this time.

The former is highly valued by King Zhao and is already a very popular minister; The latter is a feudal official, and his status is extremely respectful.

Even if they have a good sense of Zhao Jia, it is absolutely impossible for them to risk rebellion and gamble their lives on Zhao Jia.

Because the benefits and risks are not proportional to the risks at all.

During the Warring States Period, the idea of being loyal to the monarchy was not strong, but everyone was vying for fame and fortune.

Lian Po and Li Mu may be biased towards Zhao Jia in their hearts, but they are just investments in disguise, and they can't talk about loyalty at all, let alone being willing to go to the road of no return for Zhao Jia at this time.

Since he couldn't take power, and he couldn't persuade King Zhao and Zhao Yan to change their minds, Zhao Jia had only one way left, and that was to prevent Qin from sending troops to attack Zhao.

"What exactly do you have to do to keep the Qin State from sending troops?"

Zhao Jia frowned and thought hard, and suddenly thought of Ganluo's deeds in history, and couldn't help but light up his eyes.

"Pass my order, pay close attention to the movements of Yan and Qin, and if there is an envoy from Yan to Qin, report it quickly!"

For the next month or so, Zhao Jia visited King Zhao almost every three or five days, and almost every time he mentioned that the Qin State might send troops to help the Yan State.

After many times, King Zhao was also a little impatient, and even forbade Zhao Jia to enter the palace.

"Since the prince knows that the king will not take the suggestion, why does he still go to advise every once in a while, isn't he worried about angering the king?"

Bian Cheng looked at Zhao Jia, who was forbidden to enter the palace, and finally asked the doubts in his heart.

When Li Si heard this, there was a thoughtful look on his face, but Fan Zeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth smiled.

Zhao Jia turned his head to look at the border city, and said to his personal guard: "The more the royal father is tired of me today, the more important he will be with me when the Qin State sends troops." ”

Bian Cheng's face showed a thoughtful expression.

Time passes.

Zhao and Wei raised troops to attack Yan, but due to the delay in the alliance, Yan had already prepared, and the armies of the two countries encountered stubborn resistance, and it was difficult to pull out the city.

Rao was like this, and Yan Guo also felt a huge crisis, and hurriedly sent envoys to Qin State to ask for help.

"Childe, the envoy of the Yan State has entered the Zhao Kingdom."

"Stay tuned!"

"Childe, the envoy of the Yan Kingdom was captured and dedicated to the king."

Zhao Jia shook his head and sighed: "After all, I will still be let go and continue to listen to the news." ”

Fan Zeng asked, "Since Gongzi is worried that the Qin State promised to send troops to help the Yan State, why didn't he send someone to kill the Yan State envoy?" ”

Zhao Jia didn't answer, Li Si shook his head and said: "Even if this envoy is killed, the Yan State will send other envoys, and whether the Qin State will send troops or not will not change because of the attitude of the Yan State envoy, but will adjust it according to its own interests." ”

"Childe sitting and waiting for the situation to develop seems passive, but in fact, it is not a helpless move."

"If Gongzi sends someone to kill the envoy of Yan at this time, not to mention that it will not be of the slightest benefit to the overall situation, he will also be blamed by the king, but it is not beautiful."

The two can also see the difference between the two.

Fan Zeng is obviously not as good as Li Si in terms of power schemes, intrigue and speculation.

Sure enough, just like in history, the envoy of Yan State was clever and clever, and finally bluffed King Zhao let him go.

Until this time, the king of Zhao and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty did not believe that the Qin State would send troops to help the Yan State.

Time passed, and soon another month passed.

"Childe, the secret agent of Tianxianglou has sent news, the envoy of Yan State said to move the King of Qin, and the King of Qin ordered the general Meng Fu to levy and transfer 200,000 troops to prepare to attack Zhao State!"

"Prepare the horse, I want to enter the palace!"

After Zhao Jia got the news, he hurried towards the palace without the slightest hesitation.

Zhao Jia was very fast, but after coming to the front of King Zhao's residence, he was still stopped.

"Childe, the king has been in poor health recently, and he doesn't want to be disturbed."

Zhao Jia stopped and said in a deep voice: "You tell the royal father, just say that the general of the Qin State is recruiting troops and preparing to command 200,000 troops to attack Taiyuan!" ”

The eunuch who stopped Zhao Jia trembled with fright when he heard the words, and he didn't care about stopping Zhao Jia, so he hurriedly entered the house.

"The widow hasn't gotten any news yet, where did you know that the Qin State is preparing to send troops?"

King Zhao was also shocked by this news, and walked to the door with the help of the eunuch, and asked in disbelief.

Zhao Jia took a deep breath and said, "Does the royal father know that his grandson's Tianxiang Mansion has spread all over the country at this time?" ”

"Tianxianglou is not only a restaurant to make money, but also an agency to spy on the intelligence of other countries, and the news of my grandson is transmitted by Tianxianglou."

"I believe that it won't be long before the royal father will learn the news."

King Zhao glanced at Zhao Jia with a complicated face, remembering Zhao Jia's repeated exhortations some time ago, and finally felt that he seemed to have misunderstood this eldest grandson.

"However, my Zhao State is friendly with Qin State, how can he send troops to attack Zhao at this time?"

Even if it has become an established fact, King Zhao still can't figure it out.

Zhao Jia said in a deep voice: "Father Wang, this is not the time to discuss this matter, but to think about countermeasures, how to block the attack of the Qin State. ”

King Zhao came back to his senses, remembered Zhao Jia's uncertain prophet, and hurriedly asked, "What is Jia'er's countermeasure, come quickly." ”

Zhao Jia helped King Zhao into the house and began to talk eloquently: "The strength of the Qin army, presumably the royal father knows very well, even when Zhao is in his heyday, he can't compete with it, let alone now?" ”

"According to Sun Er's opinion, an envoy should be sent to Qin at this time to persuade Qin to withdraw its troops."

King Zhao frowned and said, "Since the Qin State has decided to send troops, how can it easily stop the army?" ”

Zhao Jia lowered his voice and leaned into King Zhao's ear, and after saying a paragraph, King Zhao's face changed several times, and finally nodded heavily.
