"Zhao Shu * Xiaocheng Wang Zhuan" contains: In the 33rd year of King Zhao Huiwen, Han envoy to Handan made an alliance, Zhao State agreed, and Zhao Han made a secret alliance.

At the time, Zhao Dan announced the end of the court meeting, and the ministers stepped out of the Qinzheng Palace, and Zhao Jie slowly walked out of the court. When Zhao Jie was about to walk out of Handan Palace, Zhao Dan's chamberlain came to Zhao Jie and stopped him. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please stay, the king summons you." The chamberlain said.

Following the footsteps of the chamberlain, Zhao Jie walked into the dining hall in the palace. Father Zhao Dan and mother Zhao Li seemed to be sitting at the table and waiting for Zhao Jie quietly.

"Sit down!" Zhao Jinren said: "Count it, I haven't eaten with you for a long time." Hearing Zhao Dan's words, the palace maid served Zhao Jiexia and sat down at the table.

"Don't be restrained, today's meal is a family banquet, and there are only fathers and sons at the table, and there are no monarchs and ministers." Zhao Dan continued to explain. At this moment, the servants began to serve the food one after another.

After listening to Zhao Dan's words, Zhao Jie gradually let go. After a while, the dining table was filled with laughter, and Zhao Jie's family was happy.

Night fell quietly inadvertently, the palace gate slowly closed in the moonlight, and the dripping sound made the sound of the time, and it was already time.

"Jie'er, follow me to the study." Zhao Dan said flatly: "You can sleep in the study with me tonight." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Handan Palace, study, under a huge map of the Six Kingdoms, Zhao Jie and Zhao Dan, father and son, were talking at night.

"Father, this is the whole map of Kyushu, and the current borders of all countries in the world have been roughly marked, what do you see when you look at this map?" Zhao Jie asked, pointing to the map and selling Guanzi.

Zhao Dan stared at the map, pondered for a while, then shook his head and said with a blank face: "Lone didn't see anything. ”

Zhao Jie was depressed in his heart, and then pointed to the border between Chu and Qin: "The white rise of the Qin State broke the Chu capital in a battle, and the Chu State lost thousands of miles, and the army of the Qin State suddenly broke into the heart of the Chu State like a sharp arrow. The army of Wu Qian, supported by the Yingdu of Chu, and the central army, supported by Chendu, are like two interconnected sharpening knives (sharpening knife: the predecessor of scissors, commonly used in the Warring States Period. Resisting the invasion of the Qin army. The junction of the two sharpening knives is the strategic place of the Chu State - the Great River. The people of Chu clearly understood that if the Qin State continued to advance, once it attacked the Great River, the connection between Wuqian and the imperial court would be blocked, and the Chu State would lose nearly half of its land, so they had to hold on, and for the Qin State, the annexation of vast territories was their demand, so they had to attack. Summing up the reasons for these two points, the child thinks that the confrontation between Qin and Chu in recent years will continue to occur on this long border, according to the current national strength of Qin and Chu, the father thinks that this confrontation, who will win? ”

Zhao Dan said without thinking: "The Qin State will win!" The state of Chu will be hit hard! Maybe it will be a slump! ”

Zhao Jie continued to popularize the situation of various countries for Zhao Dan, he pointed to Korea, Wei, and the Three Kingdoms of Eastern Zhou and continued: "The Eastern Zhou Dynasty has long been completely declining, and it is not worth talking about, and now it still exists because there is still a little nostalgia and shame in everyone's hearts. The territory of Korea has almost been divided into two halves under the arrow-like advance of the Qin State, leaving only the city of Yewang alone connecting the north and the south. According to South Korea's national strength, it is estimated that it is impossible to do both, and I think King Han will give up Shangdang and Pingyang for his own safety. This will be my Zhao Guo's chance. The Wei state had completely lost Hedong and was now hiding behind Korea. The king of Wei was timid and did not dare to be an enemy of Qin at all. As for Qi and Yan, after being co-opted by the Qin State, it is estimated that they will make up their minds and develop silently and not participate in the confrontation with the Qin State. The self-care of the Chu State, the cowardice of the Han and Wei States, and the stay of the Qi State and the Yan State will lead to the inescapable carrying of the banner of resistance against Qin, which is the mission given by the times, and we cannot shirk it. ”

Zhao Dan nodded and agreed: "I, Zhao Guo, also have the ambition to dominate the world, and this duel is inevitable. ”

Zhao Jie nodded yes, his face grim, and finally pointed to the border between Zhao and Qin and said: "The border between Zhao and Qin is also quite long, although Qin has invaded Zhao many times, the results of the invasion are not significant. In the battle of Que and He, the Qin army went deep into the depths of Shangdang and attempted to assault Handan, but was defeated by my Zhao State, which should be regarded as the failure of the successful assault strategy in the Chu State, and I think the Qin State will definitely adjust its strategy in the future. The reason why the child tried his best to recommend to his father the strategy of running the party was that he was afraid that the party would be gained by Qin. ”

Zhao Jie paused, sorted out his words, and continued to explain: "Father, you see, if the Qin State gets the Shangdang, the attacking army of the Shangdang will form two connected sharpening knives with the garrison of the Shangjun of the Qin State, and the north and south will flank nearly half of the territory of our Zhao State. The connection point of the sharpening knife is the important town of Anyi, which has been operated by the Qin State for many years. Fortunately, now that my Zhao State has begun to decide to run the Shangdang, once the Shangdang enters my Zhao State, the momentum of the Qin State will come to naught. At the same time, if our Zhao State goes north to seize the grassland land along the Great River, takes it as the foundation of the grassland army, and then takes advantage of the victory to make friends with the Xiongnu, so that it can be used by our Zhao State, and completely solve the northern border troubles, then Shangjun and even Anyi will be caught between the grassland army, the border army and the Shangdang army of our Zhao State, and the situation of Qin and Zhao will be completely reversed. ”

"Good plan!" After listening to Zhao Jie's narration, Zhao Dan couldn't help but admire. Even the most stupid person can see the subtlety of this plan.

"I came up with this plan, so I'm most familiar with it. I hope my father will let me go to the north to expand the territory and fight. Zhao Jie suddenly knelt down on one knee and bowed.

"You told me so much tonight, it turns out that you want to go to Northern Xinjiang!" Zhao Dan suddenly realized.

Zhao Jie smiled and was noncommittal. Zhao Dan then said solemnly: "I decided to hand it over to Li Mu to expand the soil, you are still young now, go back in a few years!" ”

Zhao Jie still wanted to ask for coquettishness, but Zhao Dan took a step ahead of Zhao Jie, glared at Zhao Jie, and then said more sternly: "You don't have to ask anymore, I will never let you leave Handan." It's late at night, go to bed! ”

Zhao Jie saw that his begging was fruitless, and his face was sad, but Zhao Dan was still indifferent, so he had no choice but to go into the inner room to sleep under the leadership of the palace maid.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Time keeps flowing, and life goes on. The next morning, Zhao Jie was awakened by a burst of baby laughter. When I opened my eyes, it turned out to be my sister crawling around on her spacious bed, looking so unpleasant.

"My good sister, come and let my brother hug me." Zhao Jie said with open arms. For some reason, Zhao Jie found himself particularly close to his sister Zhao Huan.

Zhao Huan raised his head when he heard Shengyin and looked at Zhao Jie. Zhao Fan seemed to understand the meaning of Zhao Jie's open hands, and suddenly plunged into Zhao Jie's arms.

"My good sister, you slow down." Zhao Jie was able to withstand Zhao Huan's momentum and hugged him into his arms.

"Pot-pot-!" Zhao Huanjiao said coquettishly. Zhao Jie couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and his heart blossomed.

At this moment, my mother walked into the room with a bowl of hot rice porridge. "Jie'er, my mother made you a bowl of porridge, you should get up and drink it while it's hot!" Zhao Jie's mother, Zhao Li, said kindly.

"Yes!" Zhao Jie answered, and then got out of bed with the skinny Zhao Huan in his arms. When he saw Zhao Jie hugging Zhao Huan, Zhao Li said to Zhao Jie with concern: "Huan'er is not light now, it's very tiring to hold him!" ”

"Mother, have you forgotten that I am a martial artist? Phantom's weight right now isn't too heavy for me, I'm not tired at all. Zhao Jie easily lifted his sister up, and then argued: "Look, you should believe it now!" ”

Zhao Fan didn't understand anything, and when he saw Zhao Jie lifting her up, he thought that Zhao Jie was playing with him, so the laughter became louder and louder.

"Eat porridge quickly, it's getting cold! Give it to me first, and I'll let you hold it when you're ready! Zhao Jie's mother, Zhao Lishi, opened her arms and continued to say to Zhao Jie.

After all, it was a little difficult to eat with one hand, so Zhao Jie had to hand Zhao Fan to his mother, but the thin Zhao Fan began to be uncooperative. Zhao Huan turned his head not to look at his mother, his head hung on Zhao Jie's shoulders, his hands hugged Zhao Jie's neck tightly, and he kept calling in his mouth: 'Pot-pot-', it seems that he doesn't want to return to his mother's arms.

"You have no conscience, if you have a brother, you don't want a mother, right?" Mother Zhao Li scolded with a smile, and then did not insist. In this way, Zhao Jie hugged Zhao Huan and slowly drank the porridge.

The porridge made the mother cook by herself, which is the barley and red date porridge that she loves, which contains a strong maternal love. Zhao Jie tasted the porridge one by one, tasting the taste of home, and was very satisfied.

Zhao Fan looked at Zhao Jie's aftertaste, and couldn't help but be attracted by the porridge in front of her, she vigorously evoked "pot-pot-", waking up Zhao Jie who was in the aftertaste.

Looking at his sister who was drooling in his arms, Zhao Jie couldn't help but smile dumbly, pointed to the little clear porridge left in front of him and asked, "Do you want to drink this too?" ”

Zhao Fan looked at Zhao Jie's movements, as if he understood what Zhao Jie meant, nodded lightly, and blinked his eyes, as if admitting it.
