Chapter Twenty-Three: The Second Entrance to the Palace
Zhao Kuo's mood is very depressed, or aggrieved, which is somewhat influenced by the original Zhao Kuo, the fear of his father in his bones will not disappear completely because of the transformation of his soul, just like a child who wants to attract the attention of adults all the time, no matter how much he tosses and fails to achieve his due goal, imagine how boring it should be!
"Don't let me step out of the house? I'd rather go out for a walk. Zhao Kuo unconsciously gave birth to a rebellious mentality, anyway, he had an extremely powerful excuse, that is, to enter the palace to go to duty, no matter how wide Zhao Hao was, he couldn't control King Zhao's head, and he could only stare dryly when the time came.
"Second son, what's wrong?" Mao Sui saw Zhao Kuo come out and asked in a low voice, "What did the king say?" Mao Sui trembled when he saw Zhao Hao for the first time, judging from his experience, Zhao Hao is a domineering and introverted person, and once he gets angry, he can burn a mountain bald.
Zhao Kuo sighed and said, "What else can I do, I can still screw Lao Tzu as a son!" No matter what you say, just listen to it, so as not to add fuel to the fire, sir come with me, there is something to please sir! Zhao Kuo's previous idea was to recommend Li Mu to Zhao Hao, but now he can only ask Mao Sui to help, so as not to backfire.
Li Mu saw Zhao Kuo walk in with a serious face, got up and said: "Second son, I heard that Ma Fujun is back, as a Zhao person, I really want to see what Ma Fujun looks like, Ma Fujun should be a model for my generation...... Li Mu can be said to be a "fan" of Zhao Hao, and he can't see Zhao Hao when he lives in Zhao's mansion, which makes him feel very regretful.
"The old man just reprimanded me, aren't you saying that to block me!" Zhao Kuo interrupted Li Mu's words with a smile and said: "Originally, I wanted to recommend you to the old man to be his personal soldier, but the old man seemed to think that I was insulting to the family, I don't want to be reprimanded by him anymore, so I can only let Mr. Mao Sui be the introducer, Mr. Find an opportunity to let the old man see Li Mu's archery skills, I believe that with the old man's vision, he will definitely be able to accept Li Mu." "Because of the grievances, my father's title has also been demoted to that of an old man.
When Li Mu heard this, he said excitedly: "The second son thinks about Li Mu so much, Li Mu really doesn't know what to say." "Being able to be Zhao Hao's personal soldier is very attractive to Li Mu.
Mao Sui nodded and said: "Second son, don't worry, this matter is very easy, but what I want to say is that Li Mu's stay in Handan should not be too long, the Mo family and Pingyuan Jun are not easy to mess with, as the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves, and Li Mu had better leave Handan." β
Zhao Kuo nodded and said: "I have already thought about it, Li Mu will mix into the army first, and then transfer him out of Handan when the time is ripe, the time will not exceed two months, during this time Li Mu will stay by the old man's side as a personal soldier, and no one will be able to hurt him." β
Li Mu saw that Zhao Kuo had arranged so carefully, his eyes were a little moist and said: "Li Mu can't repay the kindness of the second son in this life, from now on, Li Mu is the servant of the second son, no matter in the water or fire, as long as the second son says a word, Li Mu will never frown." β
Zhao Kuo patted Li Mu's shoulder and said, "What are you talking about!" I have always regarded you as a good brother, don't mention any slaves in the future, what I want is brotherhood, understand? (Exclusive work, please indicate if it is illegally reprinted)
Seeing this, Mao Sui said on the side: "A man's affection is too numb to say, as long as it is in his heart, tomorrow the king will enter the palace to participate in the celebration banquet, the day after tomorrow, I will find an opportunity to let the king go to the backyard, at that time, you Li Mu can not be embarrassed, then you are worthy of the second son." β
Li Mu assured: "Second son, don't worry, don't dare to say anything else, I am absolutely confident in archery, even if I raise Youji to regenerate, I, Li Mu, dare to compare with him." β
Zhao Kuo said: "That's right, people just have to be confident, if you don't believe in yourself, how can you make others believe in yourself!" In the past two days, I have to take care of my spirit, and when I am not there, everything must be arranged by Mr. Mao Sui, and Mr. is also your brother, so if you have any ideas, just mention them to Mr. β
Coming out of Li Mu's room, Mao Sui said: "The second son seems to value Li Mu very much!" But this kid is a little off the road, he should have taken out the secrets of the so-called ink family a long time ago, and now it seems that it's a bit of a dog lifting the curtain - it's all about his mouth! β
Zhao Kuo spoke in his heart, if you know that at the end of the Warring States Period, Zhao Guo relied on Li Mu to survive, you will also value Li Mu, "Li Mu is not good at verbal expression, and it is absolutely heartfelt to be able to say such things, as for the secrets of the Ink Family, as long as Li Mu gets it, he will definitely show it to me as soon as possible, if you don't believe it, I will make a bet with Mr., dare?" β
Mao Sui smiled: "It's better for me not to play this bet, so as not to lose it." β
Zhao Kuo said: "The old man came back to see me unpleasantly, I entrusted Li Mu's affairs to Mr., Mr. tried his best to arrange for Li Mu to go to Northern Xinjiang, if Li Mu can go to Northern Xinjiang, then we don't have to worry about his safety." β
Mao Sui nodded and said: "It's better to handle this matter through the king, as long as the king appreciates Li Mu, this matter will be much easier, I will try my best to arrange it, does the second son really want to enter the palace?" The second son is not here, what should I do about the paper mill? β
Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "The old man gave me a grounding order, if I don't go to the palace to work, how can I have the opportunity to sneak out to run a paper mill!" I'll go and meet with the prince first, arrange the affairs of my duties, I may have to attend tomorrow's celebration banquet, and after the celebration banquet, I will find LΓΌ Buwei and Guo Zong, and I will arrange everyone's division of labor in detail. β
As soon as it was dark, the gate of the palace was closed, and only one of the five or six doors next to it was open, and there were two groups of soldiers standing inside, and the walls of the palace were full of colorful lanterns, which reflected the palace in all colors, and pleasant music floated out of the palace, which enduring the air enduring and enduring, and the graceful shadows of the dancing girls flashed from time to time on the wide windows.
When the drum sounded, Zhao Kuo came to the outside of the palace, entered the palace from the side door under the leadership of the eunuch on duty at night, and came to a side hall to wait for the summons of the crown prince Zhao Dan. The side hall is very deserted, and the dancing flames of the palace lamp make the light in the hall flicker and darken, making people feel gloomy.
Zhao Kuo sat in the side hall and waited for a long time and no one came to call him, it was very easy to get sleepy when he stayed alone in the quiet side hall, and the upper and lower eyelids always wanted to make intimate contact, but this place was not a place to sleep, in order to drive away the tiredness, Zhao Kuo began to walk in the side hall.
When it was almost midnight, the little eunuch from before came back and asked Zhao Kuo to see the crown prince Zhao Dan. Zhao Kuo asked, "Why are you here now?" Isn't the crown prince in the palace? β
The little eunuch replied: "During dinner, the king suddenly came to be interested, and asked the prince to accompany him to inspect the Qin war horse equipment seized by Ma Fujun, and now he has only returned, and the prince learned that the prince asked to see him, and immediately asked me to invite the prince." β
Zhao Kuo was relieved, it seems that the victory really made King Zhao refreshed, and he was too excited to inspect the spoils of war at this time! Zhao Kuo shook his head and walked out of the side hall, but as soon as he came out, he encountered something that caught him off guard.
