Zhao Kuo originally thought that acting as prime minister was his main position, and Zuo Guowei was just a fictitious position given by King Zhao Xiaocheng, and he never thought that he would participate in Zhao Guo's meeting when he returned to Handan.

Who would have thought that on the second day after he came back from the Proton Mansion, he was dragged into the palace by King Zhao Xiaocheng's chamberlain.

Seeing Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao, Lou Chang, and Yu Qing all kneeling in the hall, Zhao Kuo knew that today's matter might not be so simple.

King Zhao Xiaocheng has a problem, and it has not changed until now. That is, although there is a normal court system, he always likes to call these close ministers together for discussion.

In the long run, court discussions often became a kind of decoration, and they were all decisions prepared by King Zhao Xiaocheng and these close ministers.

I think that when Feng Tingjin presented himself to the party, King Zhao Xiaocheng did not even take this matter to the court to discuss it with the ministers, but asked Zhao Sheng, the king of Pingyuan, and Zhao Bao, the king of Pingyang, in private, and made the decision to accept the county of Shangdang.

Zhao Kuo looked at this meeting, and it was probably the meeting that decided whether he would go to Daidi.

Zhao Kuo sat on top of the collapse, and after a while, Zhao Xiaocheng walked in with a dragon on his back.

It can be seen that Changping won the battle, and how much nourishment it had for King Zhao Xiaocheng. The tension and decadence of the past are swept away, replaced by an immense sense of self-confidence.

After all, the biggest enemy, the Qin State, was killed and wounded in the Battle of Changping, and as long as the Zhao State rested for a year, he could conquer the city and look at it wherever he wanted!

King Zhao Xiaocheng's eyes were focused on Zhao Kuo, and he was quite proud of himself. If it weren't for his own insight and talent, the little family wealth that his grandfather had accumulated with great difficulty would have been Lian Po Huoguang!

Thinking of this, he hated Lian Po more and more, if he hadn't been able to clean up even a little Wang Di, how could Changping have been fighting for so long.

As a result, the treasury is now empty, and he even has to force the Guo family to find a way.

Seeing that King Zhao Xiaocheng's face turned from sunny to cloudy, the ministers below looked at each other, not knowing what this king was thinking in his heart.

King Zhao Xiaocheng sat on his own slump, thinking about other things, which made Lou Chang a little unbearable, and he coughed lightly: "King, king?" ”

Lou Chang's voice pulled King Zhao Xiaocheng from his thoughts to reality, he looked at several important ministers who were sitting in danger, and said: "Everyone, now that Ma Fujun Zhao Kuo has returned, can you send Zhao Kuo to Daidi?" ”

Zhao Kuo secretly glanced at Yu Qing, and saw that his old god was sitting there, so he opened his mouth and asked, "King, I don't know why you want to send Kuo to Daidi?" ”

King Zhao Xiaocheng remembered that Zhao Kuo had just turned around Handan, and he didn't know these things, so he pointed at Zhao Sheng and said, "Since you don't know, let Zhao Sheng solve your doubts." ”

Zhao Sheng cleared his throat and told Zhao Kuo about the Huns and Lou Fu.

Zhao Kuo actually had a question in his heart, so he simply asked today: "King Qiqi, could this be the strategy of the Qin people?" After all, our army confronted him in Changping before, and if the northern border is unstable at this time, it is inevitable to transfer troops to guard against it. Maybe the Qin people are in collusion with the Lou Fu and the Xiongnu in the north of our country, this is also possible. ”

Zhao Kuo This is a heart-wrenching argument, to say that among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, the most disdainful are these foreign barbarians.

Originally, the Qin people were basically equated with these barbarians in the eyes of the six countries of Shandong, and once the Qin people and the Xiongnu barbarians were firmly connected, the six countries of Shandong would definitely rise up and attack!

"Ma Fujun's words are wrong, the Qin people are also building the Great Wall in the north to defend against the barbarians, and they will definitely not hook up with the Xiongnu."

"Lieutenant Lou Chang's remarks are incomprehensible, the lieutenant is in the territory of Zhao State, how can he know the situation of Xianyang in Qin State, could it be that Lieutenant and Xianyang are also implicated?" Zhao Kuo looked at Lou Chang with a smile, and he was about to kill Lou Chang.

Zhao Kuo didn't like Lou Chang quickly, this person has always regarded himself as a filial piety king and a minister, and it was all bad ideas.

And Lou Chang's speech just now was not brainless, it was full of loopholes, Zhao Kuo didn't take the opportunity to be disgusting and disgusting, he was simply sorry for himself, if he could persuade King Xiaocheng to drive Lou Chang away, it would be better.

"Why is Ma Fujun so aggressive? I am only expressing my own opinions, what does it have to do with you? Lou Chang was also anxious, if the charge of colluding with the enemy country really fell on his head, then he would definitely die.

Looking at the panicked Lou Chang, and then at the disdainful Zhao Kuo, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng shook his head and interrupted what Zhao Kuo was about to say: "Okay, don't say a word." Ma Fujun, the king named you as the prime minister, just to let you be less restrained in the daidi. You can also give a correct sentence, can you send the Huns back? ”

Zhao Kuo thought about it, although the Hun cavalry came and went like the wind, but the cavalry of Zhao was not vegetarian.

However, seeing that late autumn is approaching and winter is not far away, it is very unwise to start a war with the Xiongnu at this time.

Thinking of this, he looked at King Xiaocheng and his two uncles and said: "At this time, it is only two months before the beginning of winter, and the bitter cold of the northern land, the Xiongnu will never invade our territory in the south in winter." And our country has just experienced the Changping War, and it is at a time when national strength is in difficulty. It is better to hold on to the border fortress, and in the winter, the Huns will naturally retreat without a fight. ”

In fact, Zhao Kuo didn't want to go to Daidi, seeing that the weather was getting colder day by day, and there was no heating at this time, wouldn't he freeze to death when he went to the north?

King Zhao Xiaocheng hadn't spoken yet, and Lou Chang, who had been scolded by Zhao Kuo for a while just now, jumped out again: "I didn't expect Ma Fujun to be such a person, the king crowned you as the acting minister, just to want you to share your worries for the king." As for you, you are just disgusted with the bitter cold of the north, and you are afraid of it like a tiger, are you worthy of the king's trust in you? ”

Zhao Kuo snorted disdainfully, and squinted at Lou Chang: "Shut up, a person who can't even conquer a few towns in the Wei Kingdom, what kind of face does he have to make a big statement in front of this monarch?" ”

As the saying goes, you don't slap people in the face, and you don't expose your shortcomings when you scold people, Lou Chang was originally a military general, but he forced himself to be a courtier. The matter of a few yi was the last thing he wanted to mention, and at this time, Zhao Kuo brought it up in the hall without any scruples, and Lou Chang was almost about to fight with Zhao Kuo.

Seeing Lou Chang standing there with a red face, Zhao Kuo didn't care about it at all. He just quietly looked at King Xiaocheng who was thinking about it, waiting for his final decision.

After a long time, King Xiaocheng finally thought about it clearly, and he immediately said: "Zhao Xian often complained to the widows, saying that he was old and frail, and it was difficult to serve as a garrison for the Xiongnu. Although there is no problem with Ma Fujun's strategy, considering Zhao Xian, the widow thinks that it is better for you to go on your behalf. ”

In fact, King Zhao Xiaocheng still had a sentence that he didn't say, and at this time, Zhao Guo was left with several generals such as Pang Xuan, Hu Xu, and Lian Po.

He finally relieved Lian Po of his military position, and he didn't plan to use it. Pang Xuan happened to be sick at this time, and he was a cheap hardcore, so after thinking about it, Zhao Kuo could be used.

Zhao Kuo looked at King Zhao Xiaocheng's serious eyes, and said without thinking: "Since the king trusts Kuo, then Kuo must return a comfortable northern border!" ”
