Countless materials were transported from Xindu to Handan, and groups of Wei troops left like a tide after receiving them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoA soldier of the forbidden army and the defenders of Handan, led by the generals, walked into Handan. The banner of Wei has long since disappeared, and the banner of Zhao has been replanted on the city wall.

At the end of the north gate of Handan, tens of thousands of soldiers of the princes were waiting for them, and Zhao Chong led hundreds of civil and military officials to see off Xingpingjun and other princes.

A bottle of wine was distributed by the waiter, and Zhao Chong took the wine bottle and saluted them: "Last year, the country was in danger, but fortunately, all the feudal monarchs rushed to the national crisis, which protected my Zhao State from being bullied by the Wei State." Now that the crisis has been resolved, you are about to return to the fiefdom, and I don't know when you will meet again. The widow can't bear it in his heart, but a bottle of wine to see you off."

"King Xie gave wine, wishing me the prosperity of Zhao and the country, and the prosperity of Wu. The king's body is safe". All the princes raised the wine bottles in their hands and bowed to bless.

Zhao Chong looked around at the dozen or so princes in front of him, and drank all the wine in the wine bottle. Seeing this, the feudal lords also drank all the wine in the bottle.

"Nephew Zhao Wei hereby wishes all uncles and uncles a smooth journey." Without waiting for Zhao Yu to speak, Zhao Yu spoke first.

Xingpingjun and other feudal monarchs frowned slightly: "Thank you for the second son's auspicious words."

"Nephew Zhao Yu also wishes all uncles and elders a smooth journey again." Zhao Yu saw that Zhao Yan was the first to speak, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he still endured it.

All the feudal lords saluted Zhao Yu: "Thank you for the words of the prince."

"The king has four sons, and in addition to the third son, there should be another son. But why didn't the old minister see it?" An old prince of the clan looked around and asked Zhao Chong.

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of all the feudal monarchs looked at Zhao Chong in unison, and the atmosphere was a little strange for a while.

Zhao Chong didn't seem to notice the change in the atmosphere at all, and showed a smile to the feudal monarchs: "You have to work for everyone, and you are worried about the young son of the widow." Today, the widow ordered the young son to come, but he was not feeling well, so he was unable to see him off here, and asked you to seal Haihan."

"It turned out that he was sick, I wonder if the king asked the imperial doctor to diagnose it?" Hearing that Zhao Wuming was sick, the feudal lords discussed it as if they were nothing.

"This is Anyangjun's last relative in this world in the past, and we can't let him die just yet."

"I thought I would be able to see the fourth son, but the fourth son left."

"Now that he is not in good health, I didn't expect to see him at this time."

"With this departure, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to see that child again in this life."

"If under Jiuquan, Anyang Jun asks about this, how should we answer."

Listening to these discussions, Zhao Chong's face gradually turned pale. After all, he has been a king for many years, and he knows that he can't show such a face at this time, and then his complexion gradually turns flat. This son really can't stay anymore, and he can cut through the mess quickly to prevent future troubles.

Although Zhao Chong's complexion changed quickly, he was still keenly captured by Xingping Jun, and his eyes looked around at all the feudal monarchs. The voice of discussion was silent for a moment: "Everyone, it's time to go back."

"Xingpingjun, but we didn't see the fourth prince this time, so it's ...... to go back like this." An old feudal monarch was unwilling to ask Xingpingjun.

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the feudal lords all wanted to speak. Xing Pingjun looked up at the sky and said a pun to them: "Go back early and rest assured, the fourth prince is the son of the king." As long as he lives, what if he doesn't see it? “。

"What Xingping Jun said is reasonable, it is our persistence." All the feudal monarchs reacted one after another, and then nodded. As long as that child lives, the rest doesn't matter.

Seeing that they had come back to their senses, Xingping Jun saluted Zhao Chong: "Let's go, with the age we are waiting, it will be difficult to see each other again, and I hope the king will take care."

"Take care of the king". All the feudal monarchs bowed and bowed to Zhao Chong.

Zhao Chong bowed down with hundreds of civil and military officials, and everyone finished saluting.

Xingping Jun turned around with all the feudal monarchs, and then the army turned and walked slowly forward.

Watching them go farther and farther, Zhao Chong breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of Zhao Wuming, he immediately turned to look at the civil and military officials: "During this time, I was busy redeeming Handan, and the defenders of Handan were the most tired. Where is the national captain".

"The old minister is here". Captain Xue Li stepped forward and bowed to Zhao Chong.

Zhao Chong instructed the lieutenant: "The widow should reward the soldiers of the Handan garrison and spread the widow's will." Ordered the captain to organize a banquet outside the city of Handan, and the generals of the defending army of Handan must participate. At the same time, the non-commissioned officers of the Handan garrison can go back to the barracks for a day off."

"The Great King's ......". Xue Li felt that there was something wrong with this, and spoke to Zhao Chong.

Zhao Chong immediately interrupted Xue Li's words: "The widow is not the unreasonable person, redeem Handan, transport materials, hand over defense, and the Handan defenders contribute the most. On the other hand, the forbidden army was cheating and cheating, so the widow decided to let the Handan defenders repair for a day, and the soldiers of the forbidden army took over the defense for the Handan defenders, and they would be handed over after tomorrow. The widow hopes that the captain will not shirk."

"Obey". Seeing Zhao Chong's firm tone, Xue Li thought that during this time, the soldiers of the Handan garrison were indeed tired. There is no objection.

Seeing that Xue Li was not opposed, Zhao Chong was relieved, and looked at Zhao Yu: "The widow is unwell, so let you reward the soldiers of the Handan garrison for the widow."

"Father? ……“。 Zhao Yu sensed that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it. The king is here, even if the forbidden army takes over the defense of the Handan garrison, it shouldn't be able to make much waves.

Zhao Chong looked at Zhao Yu with displeasure: "Could it be that the prince has any objections?"

"The father's rewards and punishments are clear, and the sons obey the order." Zhao Yu bowed and hurriedly accepted the order.

Seeing that the two of them had complied with the order, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes looked around the ministers and finally fell on Zhao Yan's body: "Yan'er will return to the city immediately and send an order to the forbidden army to take over the defense." and the widows of today shall be severely punished."

"The sons obey the order". Zhao Wei took the order and walked to a carriage not far away, and the coachman threw his horsewhip and galloped towards Handan City.

Zhao Chong saw Zhao Yan go away, and a feeling of happiness suddenly rose in his heart: "Go back to the palace."

"Obey". Hundreds of civil and military officials received orders one after another, and walked towards the city with Zhao Chong in their arms.

Zhao Yu watched Zhao Chong leave with his ministers, and couldn't help frowning, no matter how he thought about it, he always felt strange at this time. I couldn't help but ask myself in a subconscious whisper: "Why did my father let 150,000 Handan defenders take a vacation?" Let Lone reward them here? Is it really for the sake of rewards and punishments?"

"What is the prince thinking? I don't know if I can tell the old minister." Xue Li heard Zhao Yu talking to himself and asked him.

Xue Qian heard his father's words, and his eyes also looked at Zhao Yu: "The prince has something in his heart?"

"Mr. Gu feels that this matter is strange, why do you want to set up a banquet outside the city to reward the generals of the Handan garrison? Why did you still order 150,000 Handan defenders to return to the camp for repairs? In this way, isn't this Handan all forbidden army." Zhao Yu did not hide from Xue Qian and Xue Li's father and son, and asked them a series of questions.

Xue Li thought of the time when Zhao Chong had just bid farewell to the prince of the princess, and suddenly understood the reason in his heart, and looked at Zhao Yu: "Dare to ask the prince and the king if they dare to do something rebellious."

"I would never dare to do this". Zhao Yu shook his head and vetoed without thinking.

Xue Li then asked: "Since the forbidden army does not dare to do great rebellion, what does the rest of the matter have to do with us."

"The rest of the things? Could it be that Captain Guo thought of something? “。 Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, and asked Xue Li the reason.

Xue Li deliberately shook his head slightly: "The old minister doesn't know, but since these are the king's intentions, being a courtier is to do it."

"Father, the king is not deliberately transferring us and the Handan defenders?" Xue Qian asked Xue Li.

Xue Li looked at Xue Qian and showed a hint of a smile: "How can I turn it off, and what if I don't turn it off?" What the king wants to do, how can we stop it."

"What will my father do with such painstaking consideration?" Zhao Yu heard what Xue Li meant, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

Xue Li's lips moved, he looked at Zhao Yu, and after a while, he still decided to say: "The fourth prince has not arrived today."

"Fourth, fourth brother". In an instant, Zhao Yu suddenly realized, and his arrangement for Zhao Chong was suddenly clear, and he was in a hurry.

Xue Li saw that Zhao Yu was anxious to think for a while, and persuaded him: "The old minister suggests that the prince should not ask about this matter."

"Why?". Zhao Yu looked at Xue Li and didn't understand what he meant.

Xue Qian's gaze also looked over, Xue Li pondered for a moment, and weighed and analyzed Zhao Yu in his heart: "The king killing the fourth prince is beneficial and harmless to the prince."

"If the national lieutenant is only for this reason, I am afraid that the national lieutenant will not be able to convince Lone." Zhao Yu shook his head slightly, and was about to walk towards Handan City.

Seeing this, Xue Li hurriedly spoke to stop him: "The prince is slow, even if the prince wants to save the fourth prince, he can't rashly enter Handan and the palace."

"If you don't enter Handan, how can you save the fourth brother if you don't go to the palace?" Zhao Yu stopped and looked at Xue Li, his eyes full of suspicion.

Xue Li did not rush to answer, but explained to Zhao Yu: "After the old minister finished speaking, why did he suggest that the prince ignore it, it would be beneficial and harmless to the prince, and he was leaving the prince's decision."

"Captain, please." Zhao Yu saw that Xue Li said so solemnly, and immediately asked him. At this time, the defense in Handan City was changing, and even if the father wanted to kill the fourth brother, it would take time.

Xue Li saw that Zhao Yu was not moving forward, and immediately explained the reason to him: "The prince can know about Anyangjun in the past."

"Lonely nature knows".

"Since the crown prince still remembers, then you can understand why the king has been dismembering the forces of the clan for more than ten years."

"In the past ten years, I have been alone in this matter."

"I don't know if the prince knows why the king insists on dismembering the power of the princes."

"That's because the clan is huge."

"That's the superficial reason, I don't know if the prince knows the real reason."

"I don't know".

"In the past, the king ascended to the throne, and Zhao Sheng, with the support of King Wu of Wei, rebelled. It was the king who said that he moved Anyang Jun at that time, and gave up the ancestral training of the prince and did not participate in the prince's struggle for the throne and sent troops to quell the rebellion. So far, the king's heart has left a knot in his heart. Wei and Zhao fought each other, and Lou Fu and Lin Hu joined forces to go south. I, Zhao Guogang, had already suffered a great loss of vitality after experiencing a rebellion, and I had to go to the north to form an army to stop the Hu people, so the Gong clan became bigger. The king gradually began to be jealous of Anyang Jun, but the prince had become a big tree in the sky and could only wait for the opportunity. King Wu of Wei died, and the king and the king of Han joined forces and sent troops to the state of Wei. An Yangjun did not approve of sending troops at first, but the king insisted on attacking Wei instead. The Wei State was caught off guard by a sneak attack by the two countries and almost lost the country, but for some reason the talks between the king and the king of Han collapsed, and the two countries withdrew their respective troops. Just when he returned to China, An Yangjun died suddenly. There are rumors that An Yangjun was actually killed by the king. On that day, the army of 600,000 princes almost mutinied, but it was the Xingping army that rescued the king and appeased those princes. So over the years, the king has been weakening the power of the clan."

"What does this have to do with the fourth brother who rescued the orphan?"

"Dare to ask the prince, the fourth prince has a foundation."

"Nope".

"I dare to ask the prince, but the prince is determined to follow the fourth prince."

"It is rumored that those princes are all people who fought side by side with Anyangjun in the past, and the reason why they protect the fourth brother is only because of Anyangjun and their life-and-death friendship. But their next generation will not support the fourth brother."

"Since it is a friendship of life and death, is it possible for them to mutiny and save the life of the fourth son."

"Mutiny?".

"If the mutiny is successful, will the fourth prince be able to control the situation when he ascends to the throne?"

"Without a foundation, they can only become puppets, but will they mutiny?".

"With the old minister's understanding of their temperament, if the king kills the fourth son. They will mutinied, but not if the king does not kill the four princes."

"Since the national lieutenant knows that the fourth brother was killed by his father, it will cause a big chaos, so why didn't the national lieutenant stop it."

"Because the king and those feudal lords are old, if the king is fast enough, once the fourth prince is killed. When the wood is ready, there is no reason for the clan to mutiny. If the prince wants to protect the fourth prince, he only needs to send someone to send a letter to those feudal lords. But the old minister had to remind the prince that keeping the fourth prince alive might be used by the ambitious people in the clan. Once the king died, the ambitious people in the clan joined forces with each other to support the four princes to launch a mutiny. Then the royal power will be lost, and there will be no return."

"If Xingpingjun and others are alive, the ambitious people in the clan will not be able to make waves."

"So it seems that the prince wants to gamble once? Gambling Xingpingjun has lived long enough."

"Not bad".

Xue Li thought for a moment, and Zhao Yu nodded slowly after a resolute attitude: "Since the prince has made a decision, then give Xingpingjun a favor." If he lives long enough, then these princes will be the help of the crown prince."

"Thank you for your success." Zhao Yu saw Xue Li's approval and saluted him.

Xue Li looked in the direction of Handan: "In this case, the old minister helped the prince to hold a banquet here, and occupied the north gate." When Xingpingjun and others arrived, they were escorted by the Handan garrison to see who dared to stop them."

"Qian'er, you still have some friendship with Xingpingjun's two grandsons, so it's better for you to send the letter." Without waiting for Zhao Yu to speak, Xue Li commanded Xue Qian.

Xue Qian saluted: "Obey my father's orders."

"The prince, we and others will hold a banquet here, and at the same time wait for Xingpingjun and others to arrive. Once the situation in the city is critical, immediately escort the feudal monarchs into the palace, and the fourth prince can be safe." Xue Li proposed to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu saw that Xue Li had arranged it so thoroughly, and immediately nodded: "Just according to the words of the national captain."

Seeing that Xue Li and Zhao Yu had reached a deal, Xue Qian thought of the situation he was about to face, and hurriedly found a war horse. Then he turned over and got on the horse, slapped the horse's back heavily, and galloped away in the direction where Xingpingjun and the others left.
