Chapter Seventy-Six: Shangdang County

At the end of the competition, it was already dark, and it was raining heavily in Handan. In this competition, the beauties of Qi, Chu and Wei performed excellently and outstandingly, and the three of them ranked first regardless of victory or defeat.

The states of Qi, Chu and Wei were all states of ten thousand times. No matter which country Zhao marries with, there are benefits. Zhao Bao, pulling Feiyi, went to the palace, and conveyed the news to the king as soon as possible. Along the way, they all heard the laughter of the two.

Zhao Bao said with a smile: "Da Sima, the beauty in the Three Kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Wei, who are you most optimistic about." ”

Fei Yi said, "Qi country." ”

Zhao Bao asked, "Why is it the beauty of Qi State?" ”

Fei Yi replied with a smile: "The beauty of Qi is twenty-eight years old, and the king is also eighteen. The two are together, it is a match made in heaven. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhao Bao said busily: "I also think that the beauties of Qi are more suitable for you." What you say, that's what I think. Da Sima, do you think Your Majesty will agree? ”

While speaking, the two of them had already arrived at the inner sanctum. Zhao Bao saw that the lights in the inner hall had been extinguished. He summoned a waiter and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to bed?" ”

The waiter replied: "Back to Xiangbang, the king has already slept." ”

Zhao Bao's face was suspicious, and he looked at the hall and said, "Today is a major event of Zhao Kingdom. Junshang, he wasn't excited at all, and he slept so early. Strange, this is not like the style of the king! Da Sima, I always feel that something is wrong. ”

Fei Yi pondered for a while, and smiled heartily, "I guess you have a good time playing today." I'm tired! ”

Zhao Bao saw that Jun Shang was indeed not energetic today, nodded and said, "Jun Shang is asleep, we will come back tomorrow." ”

On the second day, Zhao Bao entered the palace again, came to the inner hall, summoned the waiter, and asked, "Your Majesty, are you awake?" ”

The waiter, holding a document in both hands, "Xiangbang, this is the document left by the king, please take a look." ”

Zhao Bao's face suddenly became suspicious, and he took the letter and read it. I saw that the letter read: Xiangbang, when you saw this document, the widow was already far away from Handan. If the widow is tired of playing outside, he will definitely return to Zhao Palace and be punished by you. You have worked day and night for the great events of the widow's life, and it is really hard for your old man. But the widow, still young, wants to play for a few more years. When you're tired of playing, you'll follow your wishes. During the time when the widow is not in the palace, you are responsible for everything, no matter how big or small. Xiangbang, hard work.

After reading the paperwork, Zhao Bao looked up to the sky and sighed, wanting to cry without tears! Junshang, once again willful, once again gone.

Fei Yi was dealing with official business, and when he looked up, he saw Zhao Bao walking in with a displeased expression, and asked, "Xiangbang, what's wrong with you!" Who, messed with you again. ”

Zhao Bao, his hands clapped loudly, and said with a look of hatred: "Who else can there be besides the king." ”

Fei Yi smiled bitterly in his heart, the king is a little uncomfortable. Fei Yi put down the matter in his hand and asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong this time." ”

Zhao Bao, shaking his head, unwilling to elaborate, took out the letter left by the king from his big sleeve, "Look at it!" ”

Fei Yi humbly took the paperwork, read it, and concluded: "Xiangbang, congratulations." Zhao's national affairs want you to worry about it again. ”

"I said Da Sima! When is it? You're still in the mood to say these things. Zhao Bao sighed: "Tell me, we work day and night for the king, and we are very busy inside and out. What about the king? Without saying anything, Da Sleeve turned around and left Handan. The gentleman's temperament is too nonsense! Tell me, the king is gone, how should we explain to the princes and envoys. ”

"You and I originally intended to find a beauty for you. When you get married, your temperament will naturally be more restrained. Moreover, if there is a woman in charge of him, the king will not be too willful. Xiangbang, you and I have underestimated you. There was a smile on the corner of Feiyi's lips, there was a bit of bitterness in the smile, and it was more of the helplessness of taking the king's path, "The news of the king's wedding should be slowed down." Xiangbang, you are the best way to deal with the envoys. Your Majesty trusts your talents, and all the affairs of the country are entrusted to you. You, for your hard work. ”

When Zhao Bao heard this, he hurriedly said: "Da Sima, the disaster is what we broke together. You can't stay out of it! ”

Fei Yi arched his hand and said: "Xiangbang, we didn't get into trouble. The beauties brought by the princes and envoys are all stunning, but our king's vision is too high. ”

Zhao Bao instantly comprehended the meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "That's right! The beauties of the princes are too secondary, and we can't look down on them. ”

Zhao Bao and Feiyi were miserable in the palace, but Zhao Jun was outside, but they were happy. Out of the Zhao Palace, away from Handan, I fell in love with the mountains and rivers of the Zhao Kingdom. Zhao Yong didn't feel the slightest annoyance. Perhaps, the charm of nature is to make people feel in it and forget their troubles. But some people are willing to forget their troubles, while others are never able to forget.

Mu Jian asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, let's leave like this." Is it really good? ”

Zhao Yong bit his lip, "You feel guilty, and the widow allows you to go back." ”

Mu Jian, panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I won't go back." ”

Tian Buli smiled pleasantly: "Your Excellency, your non-farewell has disrupted Xiangbang's plan." What should Xiangbang's head hurt? ”

When Zhao Yong heard this, he didn't answer, he raised his head and smiled. It's rare to go crazy once, and he doesn't care if Xiangbang's head hurts. Who let Zhao Bao make the decision privately and arrange the marriage for him. Zhao Yong didn't want to discuss this matter too much, so he changed the topic in time, "Look at how beautiful the mountains and rivers of Zhao are. ”

When everyone heard this, they also laughed. Looking at the landscape in front of him, no one mentioned the worries in the palace.

Handan is not far from Shangdang County, and it is not close to it. Zhao Yong and his entourage, who loved mountains and rivers, inspected the people's feelings, and took 20 days to arrive in Shangdang County. Shangdang County was located in the southern part of the state of Zhao, bordering the Han and Wei states. On this day, Zhao Xie, the county guard of Shangdang, saw that the weather was very good, and led his family to go out hunting. He held a six-stone bow, and with a whoosh, shot a stag.

When the general Zhao Yu saw it, he cheered: "County guard, good archery." ”

When Zhao Xie saw it, he threw the big bow in his hand to the waiter on the side, and moved his shoulder, "I haven't moved my muscles and bones for many days, and my archery skills have regressed." ”

Zhao Yu knew that the county guard was humble, and pointed to the dense woods over there, "The county guard, let's go over there and have a look." ”

Zhao Xie nodded, jumped the horse's head, and headed in the direction of Maolin.

Suddenly, a rider from afar, with a black flag behind him, came in the dust. Zhao Xie naturally understood that this was a signal from the army, and he was shocked. So, he took Zhao Yu and walked in the direction of the scout. The scout turned over and dismounted, knelt down and said, "The county guard, the king has come up." ”

Zhao Xie heard this and remained silent.

Zhao Yu on the side heard it, thought it was a mistake, and asked, "What did you say?" ”

The scout said again, "Your Majesty, here we are." ”

Zhao Yu saw that he had heard correctly, and wondered: "Your Majesty, how could you come to Shangdang County if you don't live in Handan." ”

Zhao Xie shook his head and said with a wry smile: "When the king acts, he will always be surprised, and it is even more unpredictable. You! It would be strange to be able to guess the intention of the king to come to the party county. ”

Zhao Yu said in a low voice: "County guard, king, you have seen it." His temperament, you should know best. Your Majesty, you are here to vigorously rectify the party! ”

Zhao Xie glared at him and stopped: "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Zhao Yu saw that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said, "The fault of his subordinates." ”

Zhao Xie looked at such a good weather, looked at the dense forest close at hand, and shouted to everyone: "Hunting!" Return. ”

When everyone heard this, they were very puzzled. With such good weather, it's a waste of time to go back to the city without hunting! However, Zhao Xie couldn't tell them the news that Zhao Jun had come to the party. He was also thinking about the king's intention for coming this time.

The soldiers on the city gate saw that the county guard had just gone out hunting, and suddenly turned back, and hurriedly said: "The county guard is back to the city, get out of the way, get out of the way." ”

When the people saw this, they automatically stepped aside and made a way.

When the soldiers saw Zhao Xie's men and horses coming, they saluted and said, "Welcome the county guard back to the city." ”

Zhao Xie stopped and nodded kindly to everyone, which was regarded as a greeting. Then, leading the crowd, the wind and dust rushed to the direction of the palace. The soldier guarding the gate wondered: "What's the matter with the county guard, I just went out hunting and came back." ”

One person walked over and said in a low voice, "Haven't you heard?" In the city, several big people came. ”

When the person heard this, he was stunned for a while, and said disdainfully: "What a big person, I still want the county guard to personally return to the city to entertain you." ”

The man, with a look of contempt at him, said, "You! The frog at the bottom of the well. In your eyes, it is the greatest. ”

"My status is low, and the biggest person I've ever seen is the county guard." After the previous person finished speaking, his eyes looked towards the highest, largest and most magnificent place, and there were words in his mouth, "There is a big man in the party?" ”

In the first battle of Yan and Zhao, Zhao Jun personally conquered, and Zhao Xie was the commander of the whole army. Back in Handan, Zhao Yong rewarded meritorious people and so on. Zhao Xie is the commander in chief and deserves the highest reward. However, Zhao Xie refused to accept it and asked to return to the party. Handan officials are afraid that Zhao Xie's credit will be too great and threaten his own status. also made suggestions to Zhao Jun one after another, asking Zhao Xie to return to Shangdang County and continue to be his county guard.

Zhao Jun saw that Zhao Xie insisted on returning to the party. Under his governance, the party has also made considerable political achievements. Now, all the officials say so. So, Zhao Yong agreed to Zhao Xie's proposal.

Zhao Xie ran all the way, walked to the palace, and knelt down to the person at the head and said: "I don't know that the king is coming, I have missed the welcome, please forgive me." ”

"Hurry up." Zhao Yong walked over and said cordially: "Zhao Xie, we meet again." ”

Zhao Xie, with an easy-going expression, arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, you don't say hello in advance when you come to Shangdang County." Look at me here, it's a mess, and it's not cleaned up. I immediately sent someone to sort out the palace for the king's use. ”

"It's clean, it's simple." Zhao Yong, looking around, nodded with satisfaction, "Well, I think it's very good!" The palace doesn't have to be cleaned up for the time being. Tonight, I'm staying at your house. ”

Zhao Jun's words were too sudden. When Zhao Xie heard this, his mind was blank, and he didn't know how to respond.

Seeing his expression, Zhao Yong was obviously unwilling, and asked, "The widow can't live in your house." ”

Zhao Xie beckoned and said with a smile: "I didn't mean that." The gentleman lives in my house, so wronged. ”

Zhao Yong said with a smile: "Not aggrieved, not aggrieved at all." ”

Zhao Xie eased his mind and asked, "Your Majesty, why did you suddenly come to Shangdang." ”

Zhao Yong, with a quiet expression, said: "The widow is worried about the wine produced in your Shangdang County. Smelling the wine, I came. ”

Zhao Xie was dumbfounded. Handan is hundreds of miles away from Shangdang. The smell of the party's wine can actually float to Handan, and no one believes it. Zhao Xie thought about it in his heart, Zhao Jun didn't come to Shangdang to drink, but because of the alliance with South Korea. However, this idea was quickly rejected by him. Not to mention, there are still more than ten days before the time of the alliance. The few people around Zhao Jun don't seem to have come to participate in the alliance. There are also no mountains and rivers in Shangdang County for Zhao Jun to enjoy. Then there is one possibility left, Zhao Jun came to Shangdang to escape the marriage of the princes' envoys. Zhao Xie figured out the reason, and said with a wry smile in his heart: "The king has grown up, but his temperament has not changed!" Poor Xiangbang, I'm going to have a headache again. ”
