Seeing that the monarch's father fell to the ground, the prince Zhang ran up quickly and shouted, "Monarch's father." ”

The crowd also gathered around and shouted, "Your Majesty." ”

"The affairs of the three counties in Saibei are entrusted to Zhao Gu." Zhao Yong, with the support of the crown prince, climbed up from the ground with difficulty, with a sympathetic expression, "The widow wants to go back to see her for the last time." ”

After Zhao Yong finished speaking, he didn't give everyone a chance to speak, braved the rain and rushed back to Handan.

Zhao Gu saw that Admiral Jun handed over the affairs of the three counties of Saibei to him in charge, and asked, "Zhao Xiang, Junshang..."

Fei Yi looked at the end of the curtain and the sad back of the king, with a sad expression, "Heaven's will! ”

Zhao Gu couldn't understand it, and asked, "What else is Zhao Xiang talking about?" ”

Fei Yi let the heavy rain slap on his cheeks, and sighed: "Hitting Sanhu and expanding Hujiang, the eternal achievements established by the monarch will also be in vain." What a pity! Pity. The king's ambition will also disappear with the departure of Mrs. Jun. ”

Zhao Gu exclaimed: "Mrs. Jun's death will give you ... It can't be..."

Zhao Xie said: "You! I don't know enough about the temperament of the king. ”

Fei Yi said miserably: "The king is a person of temperament, and he is deeply affectionate. Ten years ago, the queen died, and a few years later, the king came out of the shadows. Mrs. Jun, leave suddenly. This time, I don't know when you will be able to get out of this relationship. ”

When Zhao Gu heard this, he looked at Zhao Jun's lonely and lonely figure, and sighed: "It is all said that the ruthless king's family." The king, like the ancestors, is a person with deep affection. The first monarch left because of the queen, and no longer established the queen. Kimijo also... Zhao Xiang, how can we help Jun Shang tide over the crisis. ”

Fei Yi sighed: "This is the king's calamity, and only he can bear it." ”

Feiyi's words are true, this is the king's calamity, and he can only bear it himself.

If the king is unbearable, he will not be able to get out of this calamity. The grand hegemony established by Zhao Guogang will also be ruined. Zhao will also be unable to govern Hu Jiang. The situation in Hu Jiang is not well controlled. The Hu people would also defect from Zhao.

Zhao Gu kept swallowing his saliva and asked, "Zhao Xiang, what should we do." ”

"Hu Jiang is in charge of the prime minister. Jun Shang and Handan, leave it to me. Fei Yi said helplessly: "Right now, you can only take one step at a time." ”

"So far, that's the only way to go." Zhao Gu bowed and said: "Whether Zhao Guo can survive the crisis, whether the king can return as a king, everything depends on Zhao Xiang." ”

Meng Yao's death, for others, is just a woman's, an ordinary death. However, her death was a fatal blow to Zhao Yong. Meng Yao is the most important woman in Zhao Yong's life, and she is also the most precious and indispensable part of his life.

With her, his whole world will become brighter.

What would his world be like if she wasn't there?

They are in the prime of their youth, and death is so far away for them. However, the news of Meng Yao's death came so unexpectedly that people were not prepared at all.

At this time, Zhao Yong understood. Death, which seems far away, is actually very close to them.

Zhao Yong couldn't understand why God was so cruel to him. Twenty years ago, Heaven sent Han Jiyao, the daughter of King Han Xuan, to him. Let them spend a happy time. Ten years later, Han Jiyao left him.

He still remembers that when Han Jiyao left him, he told him: Forget her, live well, and take care of their son.

His tears have flowed, his heart has broken, and his liver and intestines have been broken, but he still has to sing "Guan Ju" to send her away safely.

Zhao Yong originally thought that his heart, with Han Jiyao's death, would no longer be flustered and would not cause ripples again. However, Meng Yao's appearance caught him off guard. Meng Yao's appearance made him once again believe in what a beautiful thing 'love' is. He thought it was a gift from heaven. He and she can hold the hand of their son, grow old with him, and spend the rest of their lives in peace. However, this time, God played a joke on him again, which once again made him heartbroken and heartbroken.

Zhao Yong vaguely remembered that before going to Beihu, she said, you are my hero of the world.

He said, you promise me a long life, and I promise you a prosperous life.

She looked at him with a smile and tender eyes. Although she didn't say anything, she expressed a wife's expectation and reverence for her husband.

He added: When I return from the northern frontier, it is good for me to accompany you to read the country.

He didn't expect that he would settle in the north and establish a meritorious career for all generations. And she, Xiang Xiaoyu, abandoned him and left.

……

Zhao defeated Sanhu, opened up Hujiang, and established three new counties. The happiest is none other than Zhao Guojun's ministers. However, there is no one who is most afraid of the monarchs and ministers of the Zhongshan Kingdom.

Gongzi Shang originally wanted to use the power of Sanhu to attack Zhao and gain buffer time for Zhongshan to revitalize its national strength. Gongzi Shang never thought that Zhao Guo would be able to defeat Sanhu. After Zhao defeated Sanhu and opened up Hu Jiang. The next target that Zhao Guo wanted to attack was Zhongshan State.

The news of Zhao's defeat of Sanhu reached Lingshou. Childe can't sleep at night, and the food is tasteless.

Gongzi Shang saw that the minister was afraid of Zhao and did not have the courage to fight against Zhao. Gongzi Shang scolded his courtiers for being incompetent on the one hand, and looked for a way to rejuvenate the country on the other. Gongzi Shang thought to himself that the princes of the Central Plains would not support Zhongshan. Sanhu, the last straw of Zhongshan State, was also broken by Zhao State. Could it be that God is really going to die in the Zhongshan Kingdom.

Suddenly, a person appeared in the depths of Gongzishang's mind. This person is Sima Xi, the minister of Zhongshan. Although Sima Xi is good at playing with power, his ability is incomparable to anyone. If Sima Xi can't save Zhongshan from danger, then Zhongshan has really come to the end of the road.

Gongzi Shang came to Sima Xi's mansion and asked people to go to the court.

When Sima Ziqi heard this, he exclaimed, "Father, what is he doing here?" ”

Although Sima Xi lived in the mansion, he did not go out. But he still knows the major events between Zhongshan and Zhao. This time, Gongzi Shang came, it must be for the affairs of Zhao State. Sima Xi was in his heart, but he also understood. Zhao destroyed Zhongshan, not only did he have nothing, but he also became a man who died in the country.

People who have no country and no home are the most pitiful people in the world.

Seeing that his father didn't speak, Sima Ziqi asked, "Father, see, or not." ”

Sima Xi pondered for a moment and sighed: "The one who comes is a guest. This bit of etiquette still needs to be had. Invite him in. ”

After a short time, Gongzi Shang stepped over and saluted: "Sima Xiang, please save Zhongshan Kingdom." ”

Sima Xi saw that Gongzi was still quick to talk, and his character was a hundred times better than that of Zhongshan Wang Zi, and asked: "How do you know, I have a strategy to break the Zhao State." ”

When Gongzi Shang heard this, he pondered the meaning of his words, and his eyes were bright, "Because you are the queen of the Blue Prince." ”

When Sima Xi heard this, his mood was shocked. These words really made him feel useful.

Oh, yes! He is not only the minister of Zhongshan, but also the minister of Zhongshan and the virtuous minister of Sima Chou. His father was the minister of Tuogu, assisting the ancestors, competing for the princes, and attacking the Yan Kingdom. Because of his military exploits, he was named the Blue Prince. Sima Chou's exploits are unmatched in Zhongshan Kingdom.

The descendants of Sima also received the merits of Sima Chou and became a prominent family in the Zhongshan Kingdom. King Zhongshan once said: Sima descendants, if there is no treason. The hereditary title of the Blue Prince, sharing the glory with the Zhongshan Kingdom.

Sima Xi looked at the young man in front of him, these words came from his heart, not deliberately complimenting him. Sima Xi smiled bitterly and asked, "Childe, people outside say that Sima and his son betrayed the country for their own selfishness. In that case, why should I help you? ”

Gongzi Shang's eyes were not shocked, and he replied calmly: "The revitalization of Zhongshan is the responsibility of every Zhongshan boy. Sima Xiang will never let the territory that our ancestors have worked so hard to build die at the hands of our generation. Moreover, Sima Xiang's policy of governing the country with Confucianism is not wrong. ”

Sima Xi sneered: "I advocate Confucianism to govern the country, which has made Zhongshan weak. Isn't that enough to show that my approach to statecraft is wrong? ”

"Sima Xiang's original intention of governing the country with Confucianism was to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and also to let the Zhongshan Kingdom rely on the princes of the Central Plains." Gongzi Shang saw that the other party's eyebrows moved slightly, and said: "My country respects Confucianism, and it is the first person to respect Confucianism in the world of great controversy. It is also the first alien race to learn from the Central Plains. Confucianists from all over the world are vying to vote. Confucianism can not only govern the country, but also govern the country. ”

Sima Xi didn't expect that his original intention of advocating Confucianism would be recognized by the people in front of him, and asked lightly: "Confucianism can govern the country, why is Zhongshan weak." ”

Gongzishang took a breath and said heavily: "My country respects Confucianism and the country is weak, and it can't be done without Confucianism." If it weren't for the father and brother, they were eager for quick success and ignored the fundamentals. We wouldn't have gotten to where we are today. ”

Sima Xi asked: "Childe exonerates me, and I am not afraid of the anger of heaven and people." ”

"Zhongshan has come to this day, and it is not Sima Xiang's fault." Gongzi Shang said bluntly: "If it weren't for my father's great joy, he would say that the king offended the Qi country first, and Po Yan offended the Yan country later." How can our diplomacy be in shambles, and how can we be without friends? ”

"The first king saw the king's way, broke the swallow, and established the merit of eternity. But I didn't see that behind the work of eternity, there are huge hidden dangers. Sima Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "We attacked Qi and broke Yan, but we ignored that Zhao Guo was our biggest enemy. ”

"It's a pity that my father is silent in the midst of great achievements and can't extricate himself. Otherwise, how could we be defeated? Gongzishang's eyes were sad and indignant, "Zhongshan is sandwiched between the three great powers of Qi, Yan, and Zhao. If we can maneuver between the big powers and make correct use of the contradictions between the three countries. Why can't we open up our territory and conquer Yan and Zhao. ”

It is said that among the sons of the king of Zhongshan, the son is still virtuous and intelligent. Sima Xi listened to what he said today, and it was true.

Sima Xi looked at the young man in front of him and sighed: "If the prince is the king, why would Zhongshan Kingdom end up in such a predicament." What a pity! Childe is not the king of Zhongshan Kingdom. ”

Gongzi Shang said sharply: "Although I am not the king of Zhongshan Kingdom, I am willing to fight for Zhongshan Kingdom." ”

Sima Xi sneered: "Zhao is a strong country, and Zhao Jun is an immortal king. We are fighting against Zhao Guo with an egg. Our war against the Zhao State will only exacerbate the demise of the Zhongshan State. Childe is a smart person, why should he fight against Zhao State. ”

Childe still doesn't know the current situation of Zhongshan Kingdom. Fighting against the Zhao State would only exacerbate the demise of the Zhongshan Kingdom. But with the blood of his ancestors flowing in his body, how could he watch the Zhongshan Kingdom be destroyed by the Zhao State and do nothing. Heaven is going to die in Zhongshan, and he has to fight against God.

Gongzi is not afraid to say: "Although the Zhongshan country is weak, how can the Zhongshan man be afraid of death." Even if he dies in battle, in this life, he has no regrets. Please Sima help me. ”

Sima Xi also yearns for his father's great achievements. He also wanted to put on armor and go into battle to defeat the enemy and protect his home. He also wanted to establish his merits for all eternity, so that future generations would remember his merits. As the son of Sima Chou, he should defend and inherit his father's wisdom and keep his father's battle-hardened country.

Scolding Fang Xuan and being fierce is the life he yearns for.

However, the king of Zhongshan and the king of Zhongshan did not know anyone, were suspicious, and arrogant. On the one hand, the Sima clan is reused, and on the other hand, the Sima clan is wary. In order to avoid the dominance of the Sima clan and threaten the royal power. The king of Zhongshan gave Sima the title of Lan Chujun in name only, and deprived him of all the rest. Over time, Sima Xi's fiery heart gradually became cold. Since Zhongshan was not the country he wanted, he would rather exacerbate its demise.

Suddenly, Gongzi Shang's words. Sima Xi seemed to have found himself again, "The ambition of the prince is undiminished, and he is not afraid of the prestige of Zhao Guo." I'll give you a plan. If this strategy is successful, Zhongshan will not die out within a few years. Failure, it will exacerbate the demise of the Zhongshan Kingdom. This policy is a blessing or a curse, it depends on the creation of the son. ”

Gongzi Shang was overjoyed when he heard this: "Please teach Sima Xiang." ”

Sima Xi softened his tone, "Zhao Jun defeated Sanhu, and the next step will be to attack Zhongshan." Gongzi wanted to save the Zhongshan Kingdom and perish, but the vassal states intervened. The second is that Zhao Jun quit the war. ”

Gongzi Shang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "We have been at odds with the princes, and we have long been isolated. The princes will not interfere in the internal affairs of the mountain. Zhao Jun's defeat of Sanhu inspired his ambitions. If you want Zhao Jun to stop, it's impossible. ”

"Disturb the mind of the enemy, in other ways than by force." Sima Xi said solemnly: "Zhao Jun's biggest weakness is affection. If Childe wants to save the country, he can start from here. ”

Gongzishang asked, "Sima Xiang, I don't understand. ”

Sima Xi said in a calm tone: "Who is the person who can disturb Zhao Jun's mind?" ”

Gongzi Shang Nian had words and exclaimed: "Mrs. Jun Meng Yao." ”

"Meng Yao is Zhao Jun's beloved. If she died suddenly. Sima Xi paused, and then said, "What will happen to Zhao Jun." ”

"Meng Yao is dead. Zhao Jun will be in turmoil. Gongzi Shangxi said: "Zhao Jun will also be depressed, so he will not attack our country." ”

Sima Ziqi interjected: "Father, how do you know that Zhao Jun will be depressed because of a woman's death. ”

"Because he is Zhao Jun, the affectionate and righteous Zhao Jun. The word love and righteousness is Zhao Jun's fatal weakness. Sima Xi's eyes were sharp, and his tone was firm, "The most ruthless monarch is the family." It's a pity that Zhao Jun is a loving and righteous king. This kind of character is fatal to Zhao Jun. ”

A hint of loss flashed in the corner of Gongzi Shang's eyes, and he asked, "Meng Yao, deep in Zhao Palace. Zhao Gong has five steps and one post, and ten steps and one sentry. Heavily defended and impermeable. How can we enter the Zhao Palace to assassinate Mrs. Jun and deal a fatal blow to Zhao Jun?"

"Zhao Guojun was silent in the victory of attacking Sanhu and expanding Hujiang. Zhao Palace's defense will also show flaws. The corners of Sima Xi's eyes showed a strange murderous aura, "Zhao Jun is an immortal monarch, and his ability to employ and recognize people is beyond the reach of the princes." Whether it is Zhongshan people or Hu people. Zhao Jun is not suspicious, but he is not suspicious. There are Zhongshan people and Hu people in Zhao Palace, which also gives us an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

Gongzi Shang was overjoyed and said: "Sima Xiang's words are very much in line with my heart. ”

Sima Xi smiled wryly, "We not only want to kill Mrs. Jun, but also give Zhao Jun's life a blow." We also want to provoke disputes among the sons of Zhao and plunge Zhao into civil strife. When the Zhao Kingdom was in turmoil, it was the day when we made a comeback. ”

"Sima Xiang, please teach me."

"We assassinate Meng Yao. Zhao Junding would not have guessed that it was us. However, the traces of the assassination point to the crown prince. How would that be. ”

"Brilliant plan, brilliant plan." Gongzi Shang high-fived and said: "We assassinate Meng Yao with the Hu people under the command of Prince Zhang." The success of this plan will lead to a gap between Zhao Jun's father and son, discord between the sons, and even provoke contradictions between the Zhao and Hu people. We have a chance to make a comeback. ”
