"Notes of Duke Yu" (Yu Bu, who was the former Zhao Xiang, in his autobiography in his later years) contains: The first phase depends on the king of Zhao, and the second is the prince...... For the sake of the phase, he became more and more trembling, and when the letter of the king of Qin came, he became more and more chaotic.

Under Zhao Jie's strong suggestion, Zhao Dan came to Lin Mansion in person after the court meeting and expressed his condolences to Lin Xiangru. For a while, the public opinion of Zhao State was in an uproar, and some capable hermits saw that King Zhao was so virtuous and capable, and they changed their impression of Zhao State and had the idea of going out to serve in the mountains.

At the same time, the presence of King Zhao also contributed to the alliance of the royal faction and the remnant faction. In the near future, the two factions of the alliance gathered around Zhao Jie and developed into a staunch supporter of Zhao Jie, known as **.

As far as the current situation is concerned, its most significant effect is that the union of the two factions made Zhao Dan's voice in the court instantly expand, and for a time Zhao Dan obtained absolute control of Zhao and became a real king, no longer worrying about the obstacles of his courtiers.

So, soon, a news spread in Zhao Kingdom. The content of the news pointed directly at Xiangguo Zhao Bao, believing that he was the mastermind behind the assassination of the predecessor Xiangguo. The power of public opinion is sometimes powerful, and the assassination case became known to everyone for a while. For the sake of the face of the imperial court, Zhao Bao had to take the blame and resign.

Just as the clan faction was preparing for the battle of the next prime minister, Zhao Dan directly announced the candidate for succession-Yu Bu. At the court meeting, the people of the clan faction still talked about Yu Bu's qualifications, fought according to reason, and wanted to help their own people to take the position, Zhao Dan responded with the words of "I am the master of my country", and the ministers of the clan faction were dumbfounded when they heard this.

After the court meeting, after some investigation, the clan faction learned about the union of the two factions, and couldn't help but feel a chill down their spine, and they were afraid for a while, so the clan faction had to start the road of finding the way. Soon after, the clan faction also chose to unite with the later faction, and the Zhao court ushered in the final decisive battle. The matter is not mentioned.

In this way, according to Zhao Dan's wishes, Yu Bu became the prime minister of Zhao State. During the three months of Yu Bu's reign, the court of Zhao was rarely much calmer, and people gradually began to forget the factional disputes of the past.

However, there is a contradiction that will be triggered one day. The longer it continues, the more explosive it becomes. More than a month after Yu Bu became the prime minister, a letter from the Qin State once again stirred up a pool of spring water in the court of the Zhao State.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In Zhao Dan's study, Yu Bu was sitting precariously.

"King, what did King Qin say?" Yu Ren asked a little anxiously.

Zhao Dan slowly got up from his seat, walked to Yu Bu's side, and handed a roll of bamboo slips in his hand to this minister who was close to him. "See for yourself!" Zhao Dan said in an elusive tone.

Yu Bu slowly opened the letter from King Qin and read it solemnly. The letter says:

"The head of the Ying family Ying sent a letter to Zhao Dan, the head of the Zhao family:

Brother Zhao Dan, I accidentally learned that Wei Qi, the biggest enemy of my Qin State, is in your Zhao State, so I specially wrote this letter, hoping that you can send someone to help capture Wei Qi and send his head to Qin State, and there will be heavy thanks at that time.

When you receive this letter, I think you will be advised not to say yes. Here, I would like to remind you of one sentence: Your uncle Pingyuanjun is now in my Qin State, and I and the army of the Qin State can set off again at any time.

Qin and Zhao are originally in the same vein, and after they are both fathers, for an outsider Wei Qi, Qin and Zhao are in the same vein, I feel deeply worthless, and I also hope that Brother Zhao will consider it carefully.

I believe that Brother Zhao will definitely make the most correct answer, thank you in advance here. ”

"This is a private letter, a private letter that intimidates my Zhao Guo." When Yu Bu handed the bamboo slip back to Zhao Dan, Zhao Dan said angrily: "This is a naked provocation, does he really think that he is invincible in the world of Qin?" ”

"King, Qin is a state of tigers and wolves, and it is the most unreasonable, the king must not be angry and let the world laugh at it." Yu Bu looked at Zhao Dan, who was almost out of control, and really admonished.

Zhao Dan calmed down a little when he heard this, and he asked, "What good can you do?" ”

"Qin is strong and Zhao is weak, for today's plan, it can only be delayed for one day!" Yu Bu sighed and said helplessly.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

As the saying goes, there is no impermeable wall in the world, let alone the royal palace, which is ventilated everywhere. Soon, the news reached the ears of the ministers who were always paying attention to the court. Two or three days later, the contents of the letter began to circulate in the streets and alleys of Handan City. At the same time, rumors of a great war between Qin and Zhao began to spread, and the entire city of Handan became panicked.

"Say, who can't control his mouth and spread the news?" In the prison of the inner house, Zhao Dan was furious and was harshly interrogating the maids and servants who were present that day.

More than a dozen maids and attendants were silent, and no one recognized it. Seeing this situation, Zhao Dan looked displeased.

"Are you still loyal to the master behind you? No one admits it! Zhao Dan said angrily: "Then don't blame me for being cruel, drag me out and behead me!" ”

More than a dozen burly guards walked into the prison from outside the door in an instant. "Wronged!" A group of maids and servants have reported their grievances. But still no one came forward to admit it.

The guards lifted the maids and chamberlains out of the prison one by one, and greeted the merciless swords of the zombies of these maids and chamberlains.

"King, are they really all beheaded?" The eunuch beside Zhao Dan asked with a look on his face.

"Hmm!" Zhao Dan nodded resolutely, let out a hmm, and then continued: "There is too much water in the palace, you go and straighten out the inner servants and eliminate those with suspicious identities for me." ”

"No!" Mu Ren said yes, then said goodbye, and slowly left the Inner Prison.

After Miao Ren left, Zhao Dan looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he relaxed his spirit. Zhao Dan sat on the ground with a tired and helpless face.

"When is it a head! I really want to live the life of leisurely travel in the forest, husband and wife, father and son, filial piety! Zhao Dan thought.

However, dreams are always just dreams, and one day they will wake up, and the cruel reality is still waiting for people to face it, and no one can change this fact.

"Your Royal Highness, Your Highness the Crown Prince asks to see you." Zhao Jiansheng suddenly walked into the inner prison and reported.

Zhao Dan woke up from his fantasy and slowly got up. "Sword life! Makes you laugh! Zhao Dan laughed at himself.

"Don't dare!" Zhao Jiansheng hurriedly said: "How many people can understand His Highness's hard work?" There are only a bunch of fools in the world! ”

"I'm glad to have you, otherwise I would really be alone!" Zhao Dan said sincerely: "Let's go!" Go and meet my wise son. ”
