The next day's court meeting should have been a happy scene of harmony and harmony in the eyes of everyone.

However, when the courtiers of Zhao State arrived at the gate of the palace, they found that the palace guards, who were rarely in charge of affairs on weekdays, had begun an extremely strict investigation.

This puzzled many people, but most people thought it was to show respect for the king of Zhou and the great commander of the Chu state.

However, some people thought of the arrogant appearance of the Shenwu Army yesterday, and they couldn't help but have a hint of ominous premonition in their hearts. originally planned to wait for Xia Huan to come, and was going to set up a close mind, but it was suddenly a lot weaker.

Generally speaking, before the early dynasty, most of the ministers waited at the palace gate to be summoned.

However, when the time of the previous dynasty was about to expire, neither Xia Huan nor Zhang Yi had ever arrived.

Such a strange situation made people who had some fantasies before also lift their hearts at this moment.

"Lord Sangkook...... Chu people, why haven't you arrived? Finally, someone couldn't bear the irritability in his heart, and asked Xiangguo Zhao Shu.

However, Zhao Shu closed his eyes and refused to answer.

A few people who were close to each other suddenly understood a trace of Zhao Shu, and they couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts.

Now the Shenwu army of the Chu people is in the city, if something happens, what should it be.

"Entering the ...... Dynasty"

In the distance, the slender voice of the eunuch came, and the courtiers could only temporarily suppress the restlessness in their hearts and prepare to enter the palace.

At this time, Zhao Shu, who had been closing his eyes, finally opened his eyes.

It's just that his eyes are full of regret at this time.

"Is it aware of it? Still, it's been arrogant to this point......" Zhao Shu guessed in his heart why Xia Huan didn't come.

However, at this moment, there was a slight vibration on the ground. At the same time, accompanied by the sound of vibration, there was a thunderous roar not far away.

Many courtiers suddenly stopped, looked in the direction of the palace gate with surprised eyes.

I saw a black and oppressive figure, slowly appearing on the street corner.

A tall Shenwu army, armed with a spear, is riding a horse.

"Not good! Close the palace gate! Xiangguo Zhao Shu hurriedly shouted loudly.

Under Zhao Shu's shouting and scolding, the palace guards of Zhao Guo, who had come back to their senses, hurriedly closed the palace door.

However, before the bolt of the palace gate fell, the sound of running outside the palace gate was suddenly heard.

"Boom!"

The bolt of the palace gate fell, and the courtiers looked at each other in shock.

All of a sudden, the entire palace gate, inside and out, was extremely quiet, and the needles could be heard.

The panicked courtiers, after a short brain circuit, suddenly exploded again.

"Sangkoku-sama, what's going on?"

"How could King Zhou come with soldiers and horses!"

"Repentance! Repentance! ”

In short, all kinds of voices, people from all walks of life have surrounded Xiangguo Zhao Shu, for no other reason, but this Xiangguo Lord advocated inviting Chu into Zhao.

Moreover, these days, the person who has been in contact with Xia Huan has always been this Xiangguo Lord, and they have never been in contact with it.

"Silence!"

Zhao Shu snorted coldly, and with angry eyes, he looked around at the ministers.

I have to say that Zhao Shu has been the prime minister for 20 years, and the majesty he should have is still there. The ministers were glared at by him like this, and they suddenly didn't dare to speak.

"You, hurry up and report to the king!" Zhao Shu pointed to a little eunuch not far away who was also trembling with fright, and ordered.

"Oh, ......"

The little eunuch answered in a panic, then picked up the lengthy clothes and ran towards the palace where King Zhao was.

"Phase, Phase...... Country"

Not long after the little eunuch left, on the palace wall, a palace guard cowered and stretched out his neck and shouted below.

"What's the matter!"

"Outside the palace gate, Zhou, King Zhou wants to talk to you."

When Zhao Shu heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed. In his heart, he thought that it was not Xia Huan who wanted to persuade him.

Zhao Shu, who had already been fooled once, was suddenly angry in his heart.

"Don't you really think I'm a fool!" Zhao Shu, who was full of anger in his heart, was not afraid of Xia Huan's tricks at all.

Anyway, when he got to this step, he also knew that with this little power in the palace, it was impossible to resist the Chu army in the city.

However, after all, they occupied the righteousness of the Zhao State, and even if they really died, he believed that the Chu State would not be benefited.

With a little bit of faith that the fish was dead and the net was broken, Zhao Shu stepped on the city wall.

However, as soon as he stepped on the city wall, he found that except for a few of the Xuanjia Shenwu Army, except for a few facing the palace gate, the others were actually facing away from the palace gate.

It doesn't look like it's going to attack, it's like it's protecting the palace.

"Sanguni-sama!" Under the city wall, Xia Huan stepped forward alone and shouted at Zhao Shu on the city wall: "Didn't you say that today's court meeting?" What does it mean that the palace door is closed? ”

"The foreign minister also wants to ask His Royal Highness King Zhou, it's just a court meeting, why did he bring so many armor soldiers!"

"Can't you see it? These people are just concerned about the safety of the king. ”

"Forgive the foreign ministers, please ask His Royal Highness King Zhou to remove these armor soldiers, and I, Zhao Guo, will maintain the safety of His Royal Highness!"

"Really?"

"No jokes!"

"General Zhang." Xia Huan turned his head and said to Zhang Yi behind him: "Look, I said that Lord Xiangguo will maintain our safety." ”

"Whoa!" Zhang Yi arched his hand, then waved his hand and ordered: "Exit Sanli!" ”

"Whoa!"

Watching the dense Xuanjia knights leave, Zhao Shu's heart also relaxed a little. At least, it doesn't seem like you have to die today.

However, watching the withdrawal of the Shenwu Army, Zhao Shu had another question in his heart at the same time.

"What does it mean to go to such lengths?"

"Sanguni-sama!" At this time, Xia Huan shouted loudly again: "Why don't you open the palace gate yet." ”

At this time, Zhao Shu hesitated. Although Xia Huan let the Shenwu Army evacuate, if it was really so easy to speak, what did Xia Huan mean by bringing the Shenwu Army before.

Zhao Shu didn't believe it, what Xia Huan said was just to protect him.

"Sangkoku-sama ......"

At this time, the little eunuch who had run over to report to King Zhao also ran back.

Panting, he said to Zhao Shu: "Lord Xiangguo, the king has an order to make you fully responsible for this matter." ”

"Got it." Zhao Shu nodded, looking at Xia Huan's gentle and harmless appearance, he couldn't help but feel a trace of anger in his heart.

"In that case, it's better to strike first!" Zhao Shu made up his mind, and at the same time waved his hand, ordering the palace guards guarding the city gate to open the city gate.
