After drinking the medicine, Zhao Yong, after sleeping for a few hours, was awakened by a thunderclap. In the dead of night, Zhao Yong remembered a lot of the past. On that day, Zhao Yong stood in the Longtai High Pavilion, looked at Handan City under his feet, and said in high spirits: "Wang family, the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the widow, is it beautiful?" ”

Sima Wangzu breathed hard in the fresh air and enjoyed: "Your Majesty, it's so beautiful. ”

Zhao Yong turned around, looked into his eyes, and said, "You are willing to work with the widow to protect these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers." ”

"Wang, swear allegiance to the king, and never regret it."

Zhao Yong, pinched his shoulder with his hand, his heart was full of pride, and said: "Widow, not only to protect thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, but also to create a thousand miles of mountains and rivers, no, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers." ”

"Your Majesty, you have such great ambitions. The Wang clan naturally did not dare to lag behind, and must follow in the footsteps of the king, become a general who threatens the princes, and expand the territory for the king. ”

"Together we will establish fame, be uninhibited together, and be proud of the princes together." Zhao Yong clenched his fist with one hand and faced him. Sima Wangzu was stunned for a moment, and also stretched out his fist. Two immature little fists collided together.

In this life, he wants to be a virtuous monarch who expands his territory, and he chooses to be a general to protect thousands of miles of mountains and rivers for the king. This is the agreement between them.

......

"Your Majesty, you are hiding in the harem, and you have been ignoring the government for more than a month. Do you know what the ministers outside the palace and inside the palace say about you? When the nobles heard this, they were all ashamed of you. ”

"What they say about the widow, the widow doesn't care." Zhao Yong said indifferently: "What the widow cares about is what you think in your heart." ”

"Your Majesty, have you ever forgotten the oath you made that day in the Longtai High Pavilion?"

"The ambition in the chest has never been forgotten for a moment."

......

"Your Majesty, I'll go and lead the enemy away."

"No, if you go, you will be sent to death."

"If I don't lead the enemy away, everyone will only die."

"No, you can't."

"You are the king of a country, and your safety is related to the fate of Zhao State. We can all die, but you can't die. ”

"I can't die, you can't die. You are all promising, and you are half an inch of fame for the tree, how can you die? ”

"I can't save your lives. What qualifications do I have to be your king? ”

"Your Majesty, you don't have a choice. For the sake of the Zhao country, for the sake of the Zhao family's foundation, let me lead the enemy away. ”

.....

With a sudden change, those young and frivolous words turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated with the wind. Back then, those pride words, those lingering memories. It evolved into one sharp wound after another, slashing his heart one by one. It turns out that when a person is hurt, his heart hurts, and tears fall.

Mu Jian, listening to the waiter who was sleeping and said that the king woke up, he didn't tidy up his clothes, and ordered someone to prepare delicious food and walked in, "Your Majesty, you are hungry!" Get up and grab a bite to eat. ”

Zhao Yong, looking at him, was silent for a long time, and said, "Wang, is there any news?" ”

Mu Jian bit the corner of his lip and tried his best to restrain his emotions, "The people sent by Tu Duwei are looking for them." I'll be the first to let you know if there's news. ”

Zhao Yong's eyes were full of sadness, "Wang, whether it is life or death, you must find him." ”

"Your Majesty, we will find the Sima Wang clan."

"You go, call Feiyi, Li Dui, Gongsun Pu and others to the widow."

"Your Majesty, it's too late, the ministers are asleep. If there's anything going on, let's talk about it tomorrow! ”

"Nope." Zhao Yong's eyes were complicated, and he said, "Go immediately." ”

"No." Mu Jian saluted, bowed and retreated. walked out of the account, summoned more than a dozen guards, and ordered the things explained by the king. The guards took the order and braved the rain to march.

Fei Yi learned that Jun Shang had been assassinated, and slept on the couch, tossing and turning. Suddenly, an outsider from the account said, "Da Sima, the king has summoned you." ”

Feiyi, change your clothes and follow the messenger. Li Dui, Pang Wu, Gongsun Pu and others also came to Zhao Jun's account, and everyone didn't know what was going on when Jun Shang summoned him late at night, and they discussed it in private.

Zhao Jun walked out from behind the account with his sick body.

Everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Zhao Yong waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down.

Everyone saw that the king's body was hard during the day, and he hadn't seen him for several hours, and the whole person looked like he had a serious illness. Mu Jian stood up and completely recounted the assassination in the forest.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and someone would assassinate the king.

Fei Yi arched his hand and said: "The king summoned us late at night, presumably for the purpose of assassination. ”

"Exactly."

Li Dui, pondering for a long time, said: "The assassination of the king is a great matter. In order to avoid being used by people harboring evil intentions and causing accidents. It's better not to make a statement. The minister suggested that it is better to calm things down. ”

"Settle the matter." Mu Jian looked excited and said, "The chief guard died in battle, and most of the guards were injured. There are also wang clans, whose whereabouts are unknown. How can we let the Assassins go unpunished? ”

"This matter must be investigated." Gongsun Pu was indignant and said, "Who is so bold as to dare to assassinate the king." ”

"It's just... It is. Tu Duwei, looking excited, said: "If you don't find out, wouldn't those loyal and courageous guards die in vain?" ”

Li Dui said bitterly: "Your Majesty, hatred will blind people's eyes, please think twice." ”

"Look at those loyal and brave soldiers, with their own flesh and blood, sworn to protect the widow. One after another, the guards fell in front of the widow. Their eyes, their looks. The widow will never forget it for a moment. Zhao Yong, looking extremely painful, said: "The life of the widow is what they exchanged for their lives. When the widow lives, he must do something for those soldiers who are loyal and courageous. Widows, taking into account the overall situation, choose to calm things. In the future, what will the widow face, face those dead soldiers, and their widows? ”

"Your Majesty..."Li Dui, just opened his mouth to speak.

Fei Yi said loudly: "The assassination of the king cannot be hidden. The enemy has shown his blade. Your Majesty, if you don't do anything, not only will you not be able to calm things down, but you will also fuel their arrogance. ”

Li Dui retorted: "If this matter is used by others and then magnified, it will definitely make people panic." A slight carelessness will cause a big change and shake the country's foundation. Didn't you lose the child, and you didn't trap the wolf? ”

Fei Yi thought hard: "Don't investigate this matter clearly." Your Majesty, not only can you not give an account to the dead soldiers, but it will also be difficult to win the trust of the world in the future. These loyal and courageous people protected the king with their lives. Your Majesty, if you don't do something for them, will there be loyal and courageous people in the future? ”

"Da Sima is right, that's what I meant." Tu Yi, who has been in the army all the year round, understands the feelings of robes, and he is really afraid that the king will follow Li Dui's advice. When he heard Fei Yi's incisive remarks, he tried his best to calm his disordered breathing, "We can't let the blood of the soldiers be shed in vain. We can't let them die blindly. ”

"Ahem... cough" Zhao Yong coughed heavily. When the cough was better, he said in a sad tone: "If the widow lives, he will not let them die in vain." Even if the truth will shake the foundation of the country this time, the widow will never back down. ”

"Your Majesty, I have good news for you." Tu Yi pursed his lips and said, "The few assassins captured, they have all recruited. ”

"All confessed." Gongsun Pu stroked his chin and said, "Tu Duwei, what useful news can I get from them." ”

Tu Yi, with a sad and indignant expression, said: "They admit that they are Zhao Yin's old capital, and this time, the plot to assassinate the monarch was jointly planned by a copper-faced man and a man in black. Sadly, none of them saw their faces. ”

Zhao Yong heard the word Zhao Yin, and his heart was full of anger. Unexpectedly, they were given a chance to reform themselves. Today, too many people have lost their lives. Sima Wang's family will not be missing. Thinking of this, Zhao Yong's fingertips pinched into the flesh, and blood flowed out.

"Captain Tu, you have been talking for a long time, and there is no value at all." Gongsun Pu sighed.

Pang Wu said indifferently: "Tu Duwei's news is still useful. At least, we know that the person who planned the assassination was jointly planned by the Bronze Mask and the Man in Black. Also, they claim to be Zhao Yin's old capital. ”

Tu Yi, seeing that someone was helping him, he should be and said, "That's it, I'll just say it?" After tossing for two hours, how can there be no clue of any value. ”

Fei Yi shook his head and said, "Everyone, if you are asked to send someone to assassinate the king." What will you do if the assassin is caught by mistake. ”

Everyone was shocked and said: "Da Sima, what nonsense are you talking about, we can learn from the sun and the moon in our hearts for the king." ”

"Da Sima, how can you say this. You doubt our loyalty to the King. ”

Everyone talked about it, and they all said that Fei Yi was not.

"Everyone, please listen to me." Fei Yi, with a soft face in response to everyone's accusations, "If I were the initiator of this assassination." Those whom I recruit will be dead. Before the assassination, I would give the Assassin a handsome reward. Then, promise them that after success in paying the other half. I will detain the most important people in their lives. If the operation fails, they miss and are captured. You think, they're going to choose what to do. ”

"Threaten the most important person in life. If the operation fails, the hand will be captured. They have only one option... Die. Tu Yi suddenly understood, and said: "Da Sima, after what you said, I think there are a lot of strange things about this matter. It didn't take much effort for us to arrest these people. It was useless to punish them, and they were all recruited. The weapons they used, and... It's just too much. I was so angry that I almost ignored all these things. ”

Gongsun Pu's eyes were bright, and he said: "I understand, they were deliberately left by their opponents to give us, and their purpose was to point to Zhao Yin's old department. In turn, it will cause infighting between us and consume national strength. The other party is so calculating, and his intentions are so vicious that we almost all walked into the trap set by the other party. ”

Mu Jian said suspiciously: "People are afraid of death." In order to save their lives, they choose to tell the truth? ”

Tu Yi, Gongsun Pu, Pang Wu and others said in unison: "It is absolutely impossible. ”

Zhao Yong, staring into their eyes, asked, "Ants are still greedy, not to mention my generation." ”

Gongsun Pu and Pang Wu looked at Tu Yi and nodded.

Tu Yi said: "Your Excellency doesn't know, these assassins live a life on the edge of a knife. They have long been concerned about life and death. These people, once they miss, will only choose to commit suicide and then maintain their last dignity. For them, there is no shame in dying at the hands of the enemy. It's a shame to be alive. ”

Zhao Yong nodded. For those who are not afraid of death, how can they commit betrayal.

"From all kinds of traces, it is clear that these people were arrested because the other party deliberately stayed." Fei Yi paused and said, "Its purpose is to lead us in the wrong direction. Then, we make wrong judgments, trigger infighting, and deplete our national strength. Minister, with his life as a guarantee, the assassin will never be Zhao Yin's old department. ”
