Chapter 88: The Palace Feast (2)

"Fat ......"

In the silent hall, a trace of disappointment flashed in the eyes of Master Zhao Xiangfeiyi as he looked at him.

Once upon a time, Fei Yi was a strong supporter of his ministers.

I think that when Zhao's father first succeeded to the throne, Zhao faced the crisis of the partition of Qin, Wei, Qi, Chu, and Yan.

When the "Hufu Riding and Shooting" reform was implemented, Zhao Cheng, the uncle of Zhao's father, as well as Zhao Zao, Zhao Jun and other children of the Zhao royal family, in order to retain the power in their hands, all opposed the Hufu reform advocated by Zhao's father, and Feiyi supported him and persuaded him.

The "......" minister heard that if he hesitated to do something, he would not succeed, and if he acted soon but had many concerns, he would not become famous. Now that the king has made up his mind to turn his back on worldly prejudices, let us not worry about the criticism of the world. ……」

These words, Master Zhao's father still remembers to this day.

It is no exaggeration to say that Fei Yi is Zhao Yong's most trusted courtier so far.

However, such a courtier who he trusted the most was the first to stand up against him today, which made Master Zhao feel inexplicably disappointed and sad.

At this time, Fei Yi didn't guess the mood of Master Zhao's father, his face was excited, and he said righteously: "Minister, there are no two days in the sky, there are no two lords in the country, how can there be 'one country and two kings' in the world?" Please Lord Father must take back his life, this is the words of my Zhao Kingdom! ”

Immediately, Zhao Cheng, the uncle of Zhao's father and An Pingjun, also spoke: "What the Minister of State said is extremely true. ”

Subsequently, several people, including Fengyangjun Li Dui and others, stood up and responded to Feiyi and Zhao Cheng.

"Who's that?"

During this period, Meng Zhong pointed to an old man of the same age as An Pingjun Zhao Cheng, and asked Tian Buyu in a low voice.

Tian Buyu glanced at it, lowered his voice and explained: "It is 'Yang Wenjun Zhao Leopard', and he is also the uncle of Lord Zhao's father. ”

[Note: There were two Zhao Leopards in Zhao during this period, one was Zhao Yong's uncle Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao, and the other was Zhao Yong's son, Zhao Wang He's younger brother of the same father and mother, and the future Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao. 】

Shaking his head, Tian Buyu whispered to Meng Zhong: "Anpingjun Zhao Cheng, Yangwenjun Zhao Bao, Fengyangjun Li Dui, and Feiyi, these four people were all important ministers of Zhao Suhou during his lifetime, and they all served as the minister of Zhao, and Zhao's father ......."

Speaking of this, his words came to an abrupt end, because he didn't know how to evaluate Lord Zhao's father's behavior.

Although he also hoped that his son Zhao Zhang could really become the acting king, he really didn't dare to hope for it, because he knew that there would definitely be people in the court who would oppose it, and it was an important minister of Zhao who even he could not afford to offend.

"What is Master Zhao thinking? Could it be that he deliberately wanted to see who would oppose him?'

Tian Buyu stroked his mustache and secretly speculated about Master Zhao's thoughts.

"Enough!"

Facing the opposition of Feiyi, Zhao Cheng, Li Dui, Zhao Bao and others, Master Zhao's father angrily slapped the case in front of him.

I have to say that there is still a great deterrent in front of the ministers in the palace of Lord Zhao's father, no, after he angrily slapped the case, the palace was suddenly silent.

"Mess with my words of Zhao Guo?"

Master Zhao coldly glanced at Fei Yi, Zhao Cheng, Li Dui, and Zhao Bao, and shouted in a deep voice: "Wait for this, are you talking about me Zhao Yong?!" I Zhao Yong reigned for nearly 30 years, the west of the Qin State, the east of the Qi State, the promotion of "Zhao Qin", "Zhao Song", "Zhao Yan" alliances, Wei Gang also bowed to me Zhao Yong, after the defeat of Lin Hu, defeat of the Xiongnu, defeat of Lou Fu, attack of the Zhongshan Kingdom, my Zhao Yong's great merits, comparable to any ancestor! …… Today, you wait and say, I, Zhao Yong, are in turmoil? Not?! ”

Facing the fierce eyes of Master Zhao's father, Zhao Cheng, Li Dui, Zhao Bao and others invariably shifted their gaze, not daring to contact the male lord of Zhao State in front of them.

They were realizing at this moment that the Zhao Yong in front of them was not the Zhao Yong who succeeded to the throne at the beginning of fifteen, but the male lord who made him so powerful that he could intervene in the affairs of the heir of the Qin State - under the whole world, who could force the powerful Qin State to change the canonization of the crown prince and prince?

Only he, Zhao Yong, the monarch of the Zhao Kingdom!

With just one word, the Qin State abandoned Gongzi Fu and welcomed the succession of Gongzi Ji, who was a proton in the Yan State, so that the two countries of Zhao and Qin formed a solid alliance from then on, so that the Zhao State has not had a war since then.

"You made the Kingdom of Zhao as strong as it is today?" Master Zhao pointed at An Pingjun Zhao Cheng and asked.

Zhao Cheng bowed his head and was silent.

"Or did you make Zhao as strong as it is today?" Master Zhao once again pointed his finger at Fengyangjun Li Dui.

Li Dui was silent.

Including them, everyone present must admit that Lord Zhao is definitely the most wise and martial among the Zhao monarchs in the past dynasties, and it is he who has developed the Zhao State, which has become weakened after the fact of Zhao Suhou, to the point where it is enough to affect the situation in the world today.

At this time, I saw Master Zhao's father turn his head to look at Zhao Wanghe and asked, "What do I think?" ”

Zhao Wanghe opened his mouth, a little overwhelmed under his father's almost persecutive gaze, and subconsciously looked at Feiyi, but saw that the latter kept shaking his head, so he swallowed his saliva and plucked up the courage to say: "What does my son think...... What did the Prime Minister say...... Not without reason......"

"Can you bear to grovel before you with your brother, who is ten years older than you?" Master Zhao said disappointedly.

"I ......," King Zhao didn't know how to answer.

Seeing this, Fei Yi was afraid that Zhao Wang He's loss of words would make it impossible to return to this matter, so he said loudly: "Although the king and Gongzi Zhang are siblings, but the monarch and the minister are different, and the brotherhood must not mess with the ancestral legal system, otherwise there will be disaster in the future!" ”

At this time, in the hall, only Zhao Xiangfeiyi still stared directly at Lord Zhao's father intently.

Because he has no shame in his heart.

Different from Anpingjun Zhao Cheng, Fengyangjun Li Dui, Yangwenjun Zhao Bao, Feiyi was born in Baidi, and became an important minister of Zhao by Zhao Yong's father, Zhao Suhou, and he did not have a huge family burden behind him, and he has never done anything that harms the public and private interests.

That's all!

Taking a deep breath, he looked at Master Father Zhao and said in a deep voice: "Master Father, when you instructed your subordinates to assist the new monarch, you told me not to change your purpose, not to change your mind, and to stick to your will until this crippled body is buried in the ground. This exhortation and admonition, Fei Yi never dared to forget, so today's ministers raised objections. ”

"......" Master Zhao's eyes flashed with a hint of color.

He was slightly moved, because he didn't expect that the words he had instructed Fei Yi would be firmly remembered by the latter.

At this time, Fei Yi continued.

“…… Gongzi Zhang has contributed to the country, you want to reward him, his subordinates have no objections, and the meritorious ministers deserve to be rewarded. However, if you want to canonize Gongzi Zhang as king, you must not do so. The ministers heard that all the beasts in the world have only one head, so they can advance and retreat. And rumored, there is a strange snake with two heads, but in the end, it can't advance, retreat and retreat, and finally collapses and dies. One country, one king, governing subjects, has been the case throughout the ages, if one country has two masters, it will inevitably confuse the subjects, which is not conducive to the unity of the whole country......"

I have to say that Feiyi's words are very reasonable, but unfortunately, they do not conform to the mind of Master Zhao's father.

What is new to him?

Naturally, it is the intention of abolishing Zhao He and setting up another Zhao Zhang!

At the same time, it is also his intention to take the opportunity to regain power!

As Meng Zhong guessed, it was because of the beloved Wu Wa's dying plea that Lord Zhao's father passed the throne to Zhao He, and now, Wu Wa has passed away for more than three years, and the sadness of the past has gradually faded, so that Lord Zhao's father deeply regrets this matter.

Of course, the main reason is that at this time he is still in the prime of life, but he is gradually losing power, which is unbearable for a king with a strong desire to control.

Therefore, he intended to canonize Gongzi Zhang as the acting king, and sat side by side with Zhao Wang He, so that he could regain power in his hands through the differences and contradictions between the brothers, and truly become the "master father" above the king.

But he didn't expect that Feiyi, the courtier who was once the most trusted, would oppose this matter so resolutely.

"It seems that this is the only way to do it today......

After pretending to ponder for a while, Lord Zhao's father was also relieved, and said to Fei Yi in contemplation: "That's it, since this is the case, I will canonize Gongzi Zhang as "Anyang Jun", and order him to guard Dai County and be the northern barrier of my Zhao country. …… In this way, there is no objection, right? ”

Fei Yi frowned slightly.

The Anyang referred to by Zhao's father, that is, the "East Anyang" in the territory of Daijun, rewarded this city as a fiefdom to Gongzizhang, in fact, it is not a big deal, the key is that Zhao's father intends to let Gongzizhang guard the "Daijun", which is a whole Daijun, although the local area is poor and backward, but it is one of the sources of soldiers of Zhao, and most of the Daijun area is a foreign race after being annexed by Zhao, so the soldiers of Daijun are generally stronger than Handan and other places, so Gongzizhang is in charge of this land, Feiyi is very worried that it will cause trouble.

So, he said cautiously: "Daijun borders Yanqi and Qi countries, and the matter is big, Gongzi Zhang is still young, I'm afraid he can't govern ......"

"Then who do you think in the country can do it?"

Master Zhao glanced at several important ministers in the hall.

As he expected, the important ministers in the palace who were swept by his gaze all looked away silently.

This time they are not afraid of Zhao's father, but no one is willing to go to Daijun, after all, compared to the prosperity of Handan, Daijun in the north is simply a poor and remote country, and what is worse is that there are often foreign races in turmoil, try to ask Zhao Cheng, Li Dui, Zhao Bao and others who are qualified to sit in Daijun, who would be willing to guard Daijun and stay away from the power center of Handan?

Seeing that Anpingjun Zhao Cheng, Fengyangjun Li Dui, Yangwenjun and Zhao Bao did not speak out to support him, Feiyi sighed secretly.

Seeing this, Master Zhao smiled faintly and said: "Since no one has any objections, then it is so decided, canonize Gongzi Zhang as Anyang Jun, Wei Rong Dai County." ”

"Thank you, Father, thank you."

Gongzi Zhang bowed his hand excitedly.

Seeing Gongzizhang's face full of excitement, Feiyi, Zhao Cheng, Li Dui, and Zhao Bao glanced at each other.

During this period, Meng Zhong also paid attention to the looks of these four people.

He could have a hunch that after today, King Zhao He and Gongzi Zhang ...... No, with Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang, they will regard each other as enemies and start a struggle for power and profit.

And the father of Zhao, who caused this matter......

"Do you really want to support Gongzizhang to regain the throne, or do you want the snipe to compete with each other and the fisherman to benefit?"

Glancing at Master Zhao's father, Meng Zhong thought secretly in his heart.
