Chapter 10 The Wind and Snow Girders

The beacon fire at the border has not yet blown to Handan, let alone to the land of Wei, even so, the winter of Daliang is extremely cold.

The funeral of King Wei Hui was finally held on a winter day, and the wind and snow in the sky seemed to represent the inner sorrow of the Wei people for this great king. On the same day, the heir of the king of Wei asked Hui Shi, Gongsun Yan and other ministers, and the first king died, and he should be called a minister. The ministers were unanimous. Because at the beginning of the succession to the throne, the first king was also ambitious, and indeed he also expanded the territory, so that the Wei State, which was in the land of the four wars, continued the glory of the overlord, and was also the first person in the Wei State to arrogantly claim the king.

However, it is an indisputable fact that in the later period, King Wei Hui fell into a relatively embarrassing situation because of his narrow vision and improper strategy, so that the overlord posture of Wei faded completely, and he was humiliated by Qin and Chu successively, which was criticized by the world. Not to mention, he let go of many talents one after another, and as a result, he shot himself in the foot.

This is the reason why the ministers dare not decide on the name casually, because this name is equivalent to covering the coffin and determining the life of the first king and lord in the twilight years, which is often the most difficult to determine.

At this time, Gongsun Yan came out of the ranks and suggested loudly: "The first king was a generous man, not only moved the capital to Daliang, so that the people of Hanoi had their own land, but also built water conservancy, led the big river, and dug a chasm, so that the water network of Daliang was dense, the people had fertile land to cultivate, and the merchants had developed transportation and commerce. Practicing benevolent government and treating his subordinates leniently, there are kings who have lost their positions, all the people are weeping, and the sky is snowing, all of which are sad that my Great Wei has lost a king who loves the people like a son! ”

Wei Si listened to Gongsun Yan's emotion, and his tears couldn't help but fall, and he ignored the suspicions on weekdays. In his opinion, what Gongsun Yan said was indeed good.

"So what kind of nickname does Mr. Gongsun think?" Speaking of this, they all call themselves sir.

Gongsun Yan said that he didn't dare, and he was a little happy in his heart, and finally found an opportunity to ease the tension between the two, "The minister thinks that he should give the first king a 'favor'?" ”

"Megumi?" The ministers pondered in their hearts, the so-called "Hui", soft and benevolent to the people, love the people and Hui. It not only avoids the evaluation of the miscalculation of the military and state affairs of the King of Wei, but also praises the King of Wei's internal affairs, especially the love of the people like a son. So they all agreed with this nickname, so the heir of the king of Wei ordered, the first king called Hui, called him King Wei Hui.

Today's funeral is about to end, Wei Hei, or the king of Wei, looked at the envoys of the countries who came to mourn, and said with a little sadness: "The king and others are from the surrounding countries, and now it is the matter of the first king. The widow was deeply grateful. "King Wei hasn't gotten used to changing his words.

"The first generation of the King of Wei is a hero, and he is virtuous and convincing, but it is a pity that the sky does not take a holiday. A certain came from Xinzheng, and the king told His Royal Highness the King of Wei. The three Jin Dynasty originated from a series, although there was already a discord, but watching and helping each other is the reason for the cold lips and teeth. Therefore, South Korea is naturally difficult to help Wei State. ”

Su Qin pursed his lips, although he sat at the bottom, it stands to reason that he is not qualified to go to the palace, but the hall of the Wei State itself is relatively spacious, compared to it, Handan Longtai is slightly miserable. He is also qualified to go to the temple to observe.

King Wei sat on the top and also smirked twice. Not to mention that after the separation of the Three Kingdoms, they attacked each other for many years, when Wei was strong, they broke through Handan, and almost broke through Xinzheng, and earlier, Zhao and South Korea also interfered in Wei's internal affairs, and Zhang Kai made a conclusion about these things with a sentence that he had already made a decision, which was too avoidable.

What's more, you open your mouth to represent South Korea's position at most, what position does Zhao Guo have, why did you let you represent it?

He just wanted to reply, but saw Gongsun Yan glaring at him, although he didn't like him, but there was no need to say much about his talent, since he wanted to speak, he naturally had ideas.

"What Mr. said just now, King Wei also knows it. The three Jin are really one, and they naturally have to advance and retreat together. Gongsun Yan said, "Now that the Qin State is sitting big, looking at the Central Plains, and has the heart of sending a letter to the valley and annexing the Six Kingdoms, such a trend, we can't sit idly by, otherwise, let him come and go freely, it will definitely poison the people of the Six Kingdoms." ”

Everyone here is familiar with allusions, and seeing Gongsun Yan's righteous words, they suddenly feel quite funny. Because in fact, the Qin State is powerful, in addition to Qin Mugong and the current Qin Wang's great talent, Shang Ying and his Gongsun Yan's promotion is the key to it, if there is no Shang Ying's change, the Qin State will not be strong, without Gongsun Yan's revenge, there will be no Hexi War. Therefore, Gongsun Yan can still have such a sense of justice, which is indeed a little disgraceful.

But then again, Zhang Yi of Qin and Gongsun Yan of Wei, and even Shang Ying, are all Wei people, and Wei people can't be reused in Wei State, but they are in other countries and turn around against themselves, I have to say how ironic.

Seeing Gongsun Yan looking at him, Fu Ding knew that it was time for him to show his attitude, he sorted out his clothes and said, "Zhao Guo is one of the three Jin Dynasty, so naturally there is no reason to lag behind. A certain person came from Handan, and the king had already said that if South Korea was threatened by Qin, he should help him. And the integration of the three Jin is the long-cherished wish of my family for many years, if the three Jin can be integrated, he will definitely be able to defeat Qiang Qin. ”

Fu Ding's words made Chen Zhen, who was sitting on the side, raise his eyebrows and raise some doubts. Even Gongsun Yan was a little overjoyed, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated Zhao Yong's open-mindedness.

"It can be seen that King Zhao is open-minded and extraordinary." He said happily.

"However, the king also said it." Fu Ding continued, "Since it is an appointment, there must be a unified and coordinated person, the so-called snake cannot be without a head, and a bird cannot fly without a head. If there is no unified person, there is no reason for several countries to succeed. ”

When everyone here heard this, they immediately understood what Fu Ding meant, but this matter was raised by Zhao Guo, which was quite unbelievable, could it be that he King Zhao wanted to be the chief of the conspiracy matter? So, the envoy of Qi couldn't sit still, and was about to question Fu Ding, but saw him and said: "The meaning of the king of my family is to recommend the rhino to be born as the chief of the longitudinal covenant. ”

Chen Zhen's brows jumped again.

Lu Maoshou actually doesn't have a big idea, Yan Guo has been excluded by several other countries, and there must be no capital to rob this longitudinal contract, and even King Yan is not very enthusiastic about the matter of cooperation. It's just that if the Qi State sends troops... He turned around and glanced at the envoy of the Qi State next to him, who obviously did not intend to come forward.

No matter what others thought, Wei Wangsi felt a little embarrassed. If Zhao Guo proposed King Zhao or King Chu to be the chief of the longitudinal covenant, he would have no opinion, after all, everyone is a king, but I, Wei Si, have just become the king of Wei, and I don't have enough qualifications, so I don't dare to have extravagant hopes. But you propose one of my ministers, where to leave me, the king?

Gongsun Yan is also a general idea, there was originally a bit of estrangement between him and the heir of the King of Wei, especially Hui Shi and his disagreement with him, which caused the King of Wei to be unkind to him. If it is really as Zhao Guo said, he became the chief of the longitudinal covenant, then the identity of the king of Wei would be too embarrassing. He glanced at Fu Ding, but thought in his heart: This King Zhao, what do you want to do this time?

"Although Gongsun Yan has a thin name, he does not have enough prestige and qualifications, and besides... This Qin State is like a tiger out of the cage, and Gongsun also has some responsibilities, and over the years, every time he thinks about it, he can't help but blame himself. The only way to do what he wants in his life is to resist the Qin State with his half-old body and meager strength. If you can fulfill this wish, this life is enough. How dare you talk about commanding the Six Nations? ”

Fu Ding wanted to say more, and Gongsun Yan immediately received: "In this way, a certain recommendation of the king of Chu should be the chief of the longitudinal appointment." Other countries should obey the orders of the king of Chu and join forces to resist Qin. ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Chen Zhen, who had been silent, and he calmed down and said slowly: "The strength of the Qin State is also dangerous for the Chu State. It is because of the trouble of the State of Chu for the State of Qin, and the State of Chu can also empathize. Although the state of Chu is willing to work with you to resist Western Qin, this longitudinal matter must be decided after consultation with the king. ”

"However, as for the matter of rejecting Qin, as long as the Chu State is within its reach, it is natural that he will not shirk."

Everyone tasted it and felt that although Chen Zhen's words were reasonable, they always felt that they were unreliable. However, Chen Zhen is indeed not the core person of the Chu State, and it is indeed very difficult for him to agree immediately, so he can only say that he complimented him and dispersed.

"King Zhao's heart, I can guess about a thing or two."

Under the city gate of Daliang, the carriage of the envoy of Zhao State had already left far away, gradually disappearing into the wind and snow, Gongsun Yan and Chen Zhen stood there, watching the shadows become more and more blurred, Chen Zhen couldn't help but say.

"Hmm." Gongsun Yan nodded, "Maybe for the Zhao State, they not only hope to see a joint alliance against the Qin State be formed to reduce the threat from the Qin State, but also hope that the Wei State will not be strong, like the King of Wei back then." ”

When the Marquis of Wei Wu died, King Wei Hui and Gong Zhongshou competed for the throne, so Han and Zhao used troops against Wei and besieged King Wei Hui in Xunze, and they were about to annihilate King Wei Hui. But at this time, there was a disagreement between Han and Zhao on the way to dispose of King Wei Hui. Korea advocated dividing Wei into two and dividing and conquering it; And the state of Zhao hoped to establish Gong Zhongshou as the king of Wei. In fact, the two countries have their own calculations: South Korea divided Wei into two, and could seek to seize Wei's land for its own use, and the internal fighting between the two Wei countries could also form a containment for Zhao. And the reason why Zhao Guo established the Gongzhong Ribbon is nothing more than to make him grateful for his kindness, so as to contain South Korea and enjoy the land of Hanoi in peace.

The differences between the two countries directly led to the withdrawal of Korean troops, the siege of Xunze was lifted, and King Wei Hui was safe and sound, and finally made great efforts to defeat the Han army and the Zhao army at Maling and Huaibian successively. It's also a shame for snow.

Now, Zhao proposed that Gongsun Yan should be the chief of the longitudinal covenant, and never mentioned the heir of the king of Wei, which was nothing more than to continue to provoke the internal strife of the Wei state, so that the already unharmonious relationship between the king of Wei and Gongsun Yan would fill in some suspicions. It is just to ensure that Wei State will not be able to concentrate in a short time. It's just that his attitude towards the matter of co-indulgence was also beyond the expectations of the two of them.

"Although I don't know what Zhao Guo's intentions are, if Zhao Guo is really willing to send troops to join forces, then he will lose a lot of help. It's just that the relationship between you and King Wei will probably be repaired for a while. ”

Gongsun Yan nodded, in fact, just now, a small contradiction broke out between King Wei and Gongsun Yan. The reason was that the ministers persuaded the ministers to delay the burial of King Wei Hui and wait until the wind and snow had passed. However, the heir of the king of Wei insisted that he be buried at this moment without delay. The two sides were at a stalemate, and the ministers looked at Gongsun Yan, and between Gongsun Yan advancing and retreating, he still chose to side with the ministers, which made King Wei angry.

Later, I don't know who said it first, Gongsun Yan delayed the burial of King Wei, just hoping that the heir of King Wei could not be in power as soon as possible, and wanted to establish his own authority, etc., which made the heir of King Wei even more angry, and his persistence became more serious. Gongsun Yan had no choice but to personally come forward to ask Hui Shi to persuade the heir of the king of Wei, and finally let the heir of the king of Wei be buried with a delay.

Although this is a trivial matter, it makes Gongsun Yan more and more cautious in the heir of the King of Wei, and he does not dare to make a mistake at all.

"Compared with this, it is by no means easy for Jun to return to the state of Chu and persuade the king of Chu to participate in the longitudinal and become the chief of the longitudinal covenant."

Although the king of Chu is a man of great talent, the family power of Chu is heavier than that of other countries, and several families and clans restrain and marry each other, controlling the power of Chu in their own hands, so that even if the king of Chu has a heart, he is often forced to change his policy. Therefore, it is definitely not a simple matter for Chen Zhen to persuade the king of Chu to be the chief of this longitudinal covenant with a foreign person.

"There are things that can be done, and there are things that cannot be done. If you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't do it, you can do it as well. Those who can do it, a certain one, and those who can't do it, you also. Chen Zhen said, raised his hand, and saluted Gongsun Yan, "Just in this way, you and I will encourage each other and say goodbye." With that, he also stepped on the carriage and horse, led the envoys of the Chu State, and left one after another.

Gongsun Yan stopped in the snowstorm and didn't know what to think.

"Su Zi's strategy is really wonderful, I didn't expect that a casual sentence could cause a dispute between King Wei and Gongsun Yan." Li Zhuo and everyone crowded into the carriage and said happily.

Yes, the sentence that provoked King Wei and Gongsun Yan was said by Su Qin in the crowd seemingly unintentionally at the funeral of King Wei. It's just that when he said that, he was surrounded by servants of the Wei State, and it spread so quickly that everyone was surprised. However, this also shows that Su Qin's ability to grasp people's hearts is indeed longer than that of others.

"In this way, this envoy to Wei has basically met the requirements of the king, and we can return to our lives safely."

"However, the kid still doesn't know, why is the king not keen on the connivance, but he wants to promote the success of the connivance?"

"Stupid!" Su Qin said, "Only when the six countries join forces to attack the Qin State, can the Qin State not be distracted in the north, and the monarch can attack the Hu people safely!" ”

Li Zhuo suddenly realized, it turned out to be like this, the heart of the king is really unfathomable.

However, is this all that Zhao Yong is thinking in his heart?
