Gongsun Yan's departure from Wei marked the failure of the Five Kingdoms. For the sake of their own interests, Han and Zhao sent envoys to each other and formed an alliance with each other. Xinzheng, South Korea, was busy all of a sudden. Han Wangkang forgot to sleep and eat, and was busy for a few days, and finally finished taking care of the state affairs, so he led more than 20 well-known ministers such as Prince Cang and Han Xianggongzhong to the north, to the location of the Huimeng, the district rat.

The district rat is the territory of South Korea. Zhao chose to conclude an alliance between the two countries here. Naturally, South Korea will not object.

Han Kang, with a special focus on allied with Zhao Guo. In order to avoid being destroyed by other countries during the alliance. Han Kang personally ordered the selection of 20,000 elite soldiers to go to the district rat to maintain order. Gongsun Yan shoulders the important mission of ensuring the safety of the monarchs of the two countries, which can be said to be the top priority.

Han Kang was in the palace discussing state affairs with several left-behind ministers. After everything was explained, Han Kang asked the minister to retreat, leaving Gongsun Yan and Han Xiang to continue to discuss the details of the alliance with Zhao Guo. At this time, South Korea's Prince Cang walked in. Han Wangkang saw it and asked, "Wu'er, tomorrow I will leave for the north to go to the district rat." Why don't you go back and prepare? ”

Prince Han arched his hand and said, "Father, the son has prepared a gift for you. ”

"Look, I still have gifts for the widow." Han Wangkang smiled at Gongsun Yan and Han Xiang, "Wu'er, present your gift!" ”

"No." Prince Han got his father's will and clapped his hands high-five. The three palace maids moved the lotus steps and greeted them. Han Cang pointed to the things that the palace maid was holding in both hands, "In order to ensure the safety of my father's travel." I deliberately found a group of skilled craftsmen to create a pair of soft armor for my father. The child implored his father to try it to see if this soft armor fit so that the child could modify it. ”

Seeing that he had the filial piety of his son, Han Wangkang got up and walked a few steps, and said with a smile: "If you are widowed, try it." ”

Several palace maids stepped forward to put on soft armor for Han Kang.

Han Kang turned around, looked around, and raised his head and asked, "Rhino Head, Han Xiang, what do you think of this soft armor?" ”

The rhinoceros looked at it for a moment, and replied, "This soft armor is too suitable for the king. ”

"The king wears this soft armor and shows the breath of a king." Han Xiang turned his words to Han Cang again, "The prince has put a lot of effort into this soft armor. ”

"Good, good, good." Seeing the appreciative glances from the two Aiqing, Han Kang once again buried his head in examining this set of soft armor, and said happily: "This set of soft armor is worn on the body, and it fits very well." The widow was also deeply satisfied. You've suffered, my son. ”

Han Cang saw that his father was happy, and he didn't dare to take credit, so he arched his hand and said: "As long as the father is happy, it's okay for the child to suffer a little." ”

Seeing that the child was humble, Han Kang nodded in appreciation, "Wu'er, you can speak." ”

There was a lot of laughter in the hall. Han Kang encouraged the prince a few words, and then said: "Wu'er, tomorrow you will go north to the district rats, you hurry back and clean up." The widow still has something to discuss with Han Xiang and the rhino head. ”

"No." Han Cang bowed and bowed out.

Han Kang moved, summoned a few palace maids, twisted his neck, and said, "Take off this set of soft armor for the widow." Han Kang took off his soft armor, saw that Gongsun Yan and Han Xiang were still standing, waved his hand, and said busily: "Two, what are you doing standing." Please take a seat. ”

Gongsun Yan and Han Xiang thanked each other.

Gongsun Yan sat down, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Wang, this time you will make an alliance with Zhao Jun, do you plan to wear this soft armor?" ”

Before Han Kang could answer, Han Xiang immediately took over the conversation, "This set of soft armor was carefully built by the crown prince for the king. Of course, the king will wear it for this alliance. If the king doesn't wear it, won't he let down the prince's heart. Rhinoceros, isn't your question an extra move? ”

Han Kang thought for a moment, and then heard the hidden meaning of Gongsun Yan's words. Gongsun Yan's voice outside the words was against him wearing this soft armor to go to the alliance with Zhao Jun. Han Kang thought of this and asked, "Rhino Head, this set of soft armor is Wu'er's intention. Widow, can't you wear it? ”

"Your Majesty, this soft armor can be worn." Gongsun Yancha looked at the king's expression and continued, "This time, I went to the district rat to meet with Zhao Jun. The minister suggested, "Your Majesty, it's more appropriate for you not to wear it." ”

Han Xiang shushed and frowned, "Rhino Head, I don't understand." This time, why can't the king wear this set of soft armor. ”

Han Kang nodded, and also said: "Rhino head, the widow also wants to hear how he can't wear this soft armor." ”

Gongsun Yan sorted out the wording a little, and arched his hand: "The king is in his own land, wearing soft armor, and goes to the alliance. Zhao Guo, will you believe in our sincerity? ”

Han Xiang leaned back and retorted: "Whether the king wears soft armor or not, what does it have to do with Zhao Guo." ”

Gongsun Yan shook his head and said, "I won't say much about the use of soft armor. Wang Shang and Han Xiang naturally understood. This time, Han Zhao will meet the alliance, if Wang Shangru wears soft armor to go to the meeting, Zhao Guo will see it, what will they think? ”

Han Xiang straightened out his thoughts, nodded, and said, "Hmm! Rhinoceros, what you say is not unreasonable. The king wears soft armor to meet the alliance, which will indeed cause unnecessary misunderstandings. ”

Gongsun Yan saw that King Han had a cold face, and couldn't guess what he meant in his heart, so he pleaded guilty and said, "Your Majesty, this is the words of my family." If it is my idea, it will offend the king. Please, the king, punish the sin. ”

"Rhino head, you think about the country and the widow, what is the crime?" Han Kang's face gradually softened, "This set of soft armor is the prince's heart. If you don't wear it, won't it hurt my son's heart? But there is no truth in what the rhino said. This time, if the widow wears soft armor, don't talk about what Zhao Guoguo thinks. Tell me, The widow trusts in a suit of soft armor in his land. Does it not mean that you are incompetent? Even if Zhao Guo doesn't mind, the widow will. ”

When Han Xiang heard this, he understood why the king supported the prince's deep meaning.

Gongsun Yan saw that the king was a little clear, and bowed, "Minister, thank you for the king's trust." ”

Han Kang stepped forward, stared at Gongsun Yan, there was no mustard in his eyes, and laughed loudly: "You are a distinguished guest invited by the widow." The widow does not trust you, so why should he use you? ”

Gongsun Yan saw that Han Kang was bright and upright, and treated each other sincerely, so he bowed deeply.

Although Han Xiang understood what the king meant, he took into account the prince's emotions and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, if you don't wear this set of soft armor, I'm afraid it will hurt the prince's heart." ”

Han Kang waved his hand, but he didn't care, "Wu'er sacrificed soft armor for the safety of the widow." This painstaking effort is understandable to few people. Han Xiang! If the widow is in his own land, he is guarded by many soldiers. If the widow wears it, won't it chill the hearts of all the soldiers? My son is too young to understand the meaning. You've been following me for many years, don't you understand this? ”

Han Xiang smiled and said: "What the king said is very true, but I was confused for a while. ”

"You!" Han Kang pointed at him and said, "It's not a fool. Your thoughts, the widow does not understand. ”

Han Xiang said guiltily: "I can't hide anything from the king." ”

Zhao Yong also attaches great importance to this alliance. There were still more than ten days before the alliance, so Zhao Yong sent Mu Jian back to Handan and invited Da Sima Feiyi and others to the details of the alliance of the businessmen. Although Feiyi was in Handan, he saw that the date of the alliance was approaching. I had already expected in my heart that the king would send someone back to Handan to ask for help. Therefore, this meeting, Feiyi also planned and arranged in advance.

Fei Yi came to Shangdang and met Zhao Jun.

Zhao Yong thought that it would take a few days for Feiyi and others to come to Shangdang. He saw that Feiyi was quick and decisive, and in front of everyone, he praised him. Fei Yi does not ask for merit and reward, but only says that as a courtier, it should be so. Zhao Yong saw that he was loyal to his master, and he was not greedy for merit, and the most important thing was that Feiyi was very temperamental to him.

For several days in a row, the people gathered to discuss the matter of sending an envoy to Korea to join the alliance. After repeated corrections by everyone, a perfect plan was finally formulated. Zhao Yong saw that the plan was impeccable and finalized the date of the envoy.

The night before leaving, Mu Jian came to the palace and said, "Your Majesty, this is what I asked me to send when I returned to Handan. ”

Zhao Yong looked at the thing sent, saw that it was an armor, and asked, "Who sent it?" ”

Mu Jian said, "Zuo Si Kou Li Dui." ”

Zhao Yong asked, "Where are the others?" ”

Mu Jian said, "It's still in Handan." ”

Zhao Yong asked, "Did Zuo Sikou say anything?" ”

Mu Jian said: "Zuo Sikou said that the road to South Korea is dangerous, please wear armor to defend yourself." Your Majesty, I have tried this armor, it is made of the best materials, and the sword cannot hurt it in the slightest. ”

Zhao Yong said, "Put it away." ”

Mu Jian, standing still, said, "Your Majesty, for safety." It's better for you to wear him. ”

Zhao Yong said: "The widow is going to Korea to join the alliance, not to fight, what to do in armor." ”

The people present also advised the king to wear armor to avoid accidents in Korea. Zhao Yong's expression did not approve of everyone's remarks, and his eyes swept over the people present, "You know what King Han's character is." We are on an envoy to South Korea, and King Han really wants to disadvantage us. How can a mere armor protect me? Although the armor is small, the meaning conveyed by the widow wears it on the body. We chose to join the alliance with South Korea with 100 percent sincerity. If King Han does not have faithfulness, then who else in the princes of the world has faithfulness. ”

When everyone heard this, they felt ashamed, and after reading the books of sages for many years, they were not as good as a child.

Fei Yi asked, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to go to see King Han." ”

Zhao Yong said: "The widow uses this body." ”

Fei Yi's face was ugly, and he said, "Your Majesty, this dress is not very decent. The minister suggested that the king should dress up and wear beautiful clothes. ”

Zhao Yong said: "The widow is going to see King Han, not to see his future father-in-law." This outfit is enough! ”

When everyone heard Zhao Jun's words, they all made cheerful sounds.

Fei Yi is funny in his heart, but he doesn't break it either. Zhao Jun's trip is not only to meet the alliance, but also to meet your father-in-law. Zhao Jun is not afraid of embarrassment, what does Feiyi have to worry about. Fei Yi thinks? It's not a bad thing to let his future father-in-law discipline him well.

On the second day, Zhao Yong left Shangdang City for the Korean border. In order to ensure that he was thorough, Fei Yi made some arrangements in private, and he nominally asked Zhao Xie to lead the party general to send Zhao Jun off. After Zhao Jun and the others left, they appeared on the border between Han and Zhao in the name of hunting. If South Korea wants to do something unkind to Zhao Jun, they are the force behind Zhao Jun.

"Report." A scout came to Zhao Yong and said, "Your Majesty, Korea has increased its strength in the district rat by a lot. ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were worried. How can South Korea increase its troops in the district rats. For the sake of Zhao Yong's safety, everyone suggested that he cancel the trip.

"The district rat is the place of South Korea, and there is nothing wrong with South Korea increasing its troops. You guys! Why make a fuss, listening to the wind is the rain. Zhao Yong's fearless gaze swept over the others, "If the widow follows you and cancels the trip, won't he be made fun of by the vassal states." Ladies and gentlemen, personal honor and disgrace are small things, but humiliation of the country is a big matter. ”

Everyone couldn't understand how the king could be obsessed with South Korea and go there regardless of his own safety.

"Let's go! King Han sent someone to pick us up. ”

Fei Yi said: "Your Majesty, this matter is very high. Even if we are going to enter South Korea, please let the ministers carry weapons. If you have an accident, you can deal with it. ”

Zhao Yong shook his head and said, "Great Sima, if other countries also carry weapons and enter our territory, what will you do?" ”

"This..."Fei Yi didn't expect Zhao Yong to ask like this, and he couldn't answer for a while.

"Report." A scout ran to Han Wangkang and said, "King Zhao is leading a group of people to wait." ”

Han Xiang asked, "How many people have come from Zhao State?" ”

The scout said, "Thirty people from the Zhao Kingdom came. ”

"Thirty?" Han Xiang hesitated and said, "Did they bring weapons?" On the border of Zhao State, there is no army stationed. ”

The scout said, "The thirty people are all lightly armed, and they have no weapons. Our scattered people in Zhao Realm came to report, and we did not find a large number of traces of Zhao Jun stationed. ”

Han Xiang wanted to say something.

Han Kang said, "Han Xiang, make a fool of yourself!" There are 5,000 of us, and we are with us. Thirty people came from Zhao State, all of whom came lightly. Ah, us! Shame on you! You! Don't be suspicious. Zhao Guomeng was sincere. ”

Han Xiang, he didn't expect that King Zhao not only didn't bring guards, but also didn't even bring weapons, which was simply too incredible, "Your Majesty, I am the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." But the minister felt that it was right to be careful. ”

Han Kang pointed to the soldiers behind him and said, "This is what you said about being careful." The courage and bearing of the widow are not as good as Zhao Guo's little doll. It's a shame if this matter gets out! ”

Prince Han said, "Father, King Zhao and others are almost here." We're going to greet us, so we don't lose our manners. ”

Gongsun Yan also said: "Your Majesty, what the prince said is very true. ”

Han Kang saw King Zhao and the others, and said with a smile: "King Zhao, we meet again." ”

Zhao Yong replied: "Yes! The widow remembers that the first time we met was a few years ago. ”

"yes!" Han Kang also sighed a lot, and said with a smile: "At that time, I led Wu'er to Zhao State to congratulate you on your succession. King Zhao worked tirelessly and personally went out of Handan fifty miles to meet us. ”

"This time, there is King Lao Han, who came to greet the younger generation."

"Courtesy is still exchanged, human nature. The widow sent an envoy to the state of Zhao, and the king of Zhao personally greeted him. King Zhao came to South Korea, how could the widow not welcome him! King Han pointed to the people behind King Zhao and said with a smile: "There are such people behind King Zhao, aren't you afraid of being outnumbered, and Xue Manchu will detain you in South Korea?" ”

"The widow believes in the benevolence of King Han. If the widow is afraid, he will not come. Zhao Yong's laughter stopped appropriately, looked into King Han's eyes, and asked seriously: "King Han, will you learn from Barbarian Chu to detain me?" ”
