In the Xindu Palace, Zhao Yu took Zhao Wuming all the way to gallop, through the palace doors, and walked up the steps. The eunuch of the www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion made Zhang Gao wait for a long time, and when he saw the two of them coming, he sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he showed a kind smile: "The old slave has seen the prince and the fourth son."

"Father can be in there?". Zhao Yu was not polite to him, and asked him directly.

Zhang Gao seemed to know that the prince did not treat him well, and although he was disgusted in his heart, the smile on the surface became a little thicker: "If you go back to the prince, the king is inside."

"Fourth brother, I'll go in together." Zhao Yu got the answer, and he didn't want to talk to Zhang Gao too much, so he immediately took Zhao Wuming and walked inside.

Footsteps sounded in the hall, Zhao Yu and Zhao Wuming looked at Zhao Chong sitting on the throne, and bowed to him: "See Father, King."

"The king? Are you called the Widow King? “。 Zhao Chong looked at Zhao Wuming, his eyes full of surprise. My hard-mouthed son, why did he change his mouth after not seeing him for more than a year? The revenge of killing his mother has been miserable for ten years. The hatred of seizing the fiefdom of Anyang and the military power, did he really see it? .

Zhao Wuming looked at Zhao Chong, and at this time he found that his face was slightly pale, and he was indeed much weaker than more than a year ago: "Zhao Wuming see the king."

"You see that the widow has little time, so he changed his mouth." Zhao Chong seemed to have thought of the reason, and the surprise just now turned into a chill in an instant.

Zhao Wuming's lips moved, and seeing that Zhao Chong's body was weak, he suppressed his anger and kept silent.

Zhao Chong snorted coldly, and there seemed to be a chill in the hall: "Sure enough, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." The widow is very strong, and he can't die for three or five years."

"The father is also your son, why do you treat the fourth brother like this." Zhao Yu saw Zhao Chong's words, and couldn't help but ask Zhao Chong the words that had been hidden in his heart for many years.

Zhao Chong was furious, and suddenly there was a violent coughing sound, Zhang Gao ran in from outside in a panic, took a piece of silk and handed it to Zhao Chong.

"Ahem, ahem, ......". Zhao Chong covered his mouth with a silk and coughed, and a trace of blood spread on it.

Zhang Gao wanted to help, but was pushed away by Zhao Chong, and scolded Zhao Yu angrily: "It's not all for you that the rebel son and the widow do this."

"All the mistakes are the child's fault, and I ask my father to calm his anger and ensure that his body is important." Zhao Yu didn't dare to stiffen up when he saw the blood stains on the silk, so he hurriedly persuaded him.

Zhang Gao supported Zhao Chong and smoothed him out.

Zhao Chong sat down firmly under the support, looked directly at Zhao Yu, and after a while, his gaze gradually softened: "The widow knows that his time is short."

"Why did my father say this?" Zhao Yu hurriedly interrupted Zhao Chong's words and relieved him again.

Zhao Chong was unmoved, and continued to say: "Life and death are not something that can be changed by manpower, once the widow dies. Inside, your second brother Zhao Wei assists in handling government affairs, and outside there is your third brother holding an army of 400,000 to guard Dai County. In addition to Shen Tuxiu commanding the forbidden army, the national lieutenant looks at the Handan defenders for you. Even if the widow dies suddenly, I can safely hand over my Zhao Kingdom into your hands. In this way, killing can also be avoided, and it is enough for the widow to wish."

"The father has good intentions, and the child is grateful." Zhao Yu listened to Zhao Chong's arrangement, and sighed silently in his heart. Where is this arrangement, what is the stability and excessive, it is clearly forcing them to meet each other.

Zhao Chong's gaze looked at Zhao Wuming, and his lips moved. Thinking that he was his son after all, he immediately spoke: "Wuming, you hate your father, and you know it for your father." But you and Yu'er are brothers after all, if you are good for him, after the widow dies, you will leave Xindu and Zhao Kingdom. I, Zhao Guo, have lost Handan, and my vitality has been greatly damaged, and I can no longer bear any twists and turns. Father's hope, you will understand".

"Why is the king so sure, I am in Zhao State, I am in Xindu. can make Zhao Guo fall into twists and turns again." Zhao Wuming finally couldn't help asking, he thought that Zhao Chong at this time could say words of repentance, but he thought that he was thinking too much.

Zhao Chong seemed to think of something, and his hand trembled slightly. Obviously, his heart was extremely uneasy, and he looked at Zhao Wuming again for a while: "Why do you need to tell the reason for this matter, you just need to know that once the widow dies, if you stay in my Zhao Kingdom, there will be waves." Otherwise, why would you be able to borrow the soldiers of the prince so easily. Ten years later, I thought it was all over. I didn't expect them to borrow troops from you so easily, it seems that the widow underestimated their determination."

"But". Zhao Wuming listened to Zhao Chong's words and hurriedly asked.

Zhao Chong suddenly became furious, like an enraged lion: "Rebel, do you want to be in the hands of the widow when he dies." Secretly united with the soldiers and horses of nearly 300,000 princes from all over the country who were fighting against Wei in the front, and immediately mutinied and became king while the bones of the widows were cold? “。

"King Mingjian, Wuming has no such intention." Zhao Wuming was stunned for a moment, completely unaware of the relationship between himself and the 300,000 princes and feudal soldiers.

Zhao Chong didn't believe it, and his mind flowed quickly: "You must promise to leave Xindu and Zhao Kingdom immediately on the day of the widow's death."

"Father, this? ……“。 Zhao Yu saw Zhao Chong's anxious appearance, and he didn't understand what he was worried about at all.

Hearing Zhao Yu's voice, Zhao Chong was shocked, and suddenly his expression was a little flustered: "No, the widow should immediately negotiate peace with the Wei State, and while the widow is still alive, let all the soldiers and horses of those princes go back." At this time, since the rebels have returned, they are outside this capital of faith. If they don't act quickly, I'm afraid they won't be able to wait for the day when the widow dies."

"Father, what are you worried about, Wu Ming has been outside Handan City before, except for leaving Xindu last year. The princes of the various clans have almost no contact with him, so I don't know what you are worried about." Zhao Yu was a little stunned, and for some reason he actually saw a trace of fear in Zhao Chong's gaze. Perhaps it was these fears that made Zhao Chong make various arrangements after his death.

Listening to Zhao Yu's words, Zhao Chong suddenly woke up and looked directly at Zhao Wuming: "Where have you been for more than a year?"

"After sending the 3,000 soldiers and horses, he immediately went to the north and traveled in the country of Lou Fu." Listening to Zhao Chong's tone, although Zhao Wuming was a little uncomfortable, he still answered him.

Zhao Chong didn't dare to relax and asked Zhao Wuming again: "This is true, you really don't have any contact with those princes."

"If it is really as the king said, why did I come back this time without the army of the princes to protect me." Zhao Wuming asked Zhao Chong, although he didn't know what kind of worry Zhao Chong was in. But it does not affect my judgment on this matter. Suspicion is a king's instinct to protect himself, and it is also destined to be sad for his life.

When Zhao Chong heard Zhao Wuming's question, his heart gradually calmed down, maybe this matter was not as bad as he thought: "The widow will believe you once." The envoys of Wei are coming, and the widow has summoned you to discuss the return of Handan by Wei."

"Didn't Wei return Handan as a sincerity to form a new alliance with our country?" Zhao Yu was afraid that Zhao Wuming's opening would make King Zhao angry, so he preemptively asked along this topic.

Zhao Chong shook his head, thinking of the letter of state from Wei State, he smiled bitterly: "Wei Ying, this person resents the widow, how can he easily return it to the widow when he holds the capital of our country Handan at this time." Today, I received a letter of state from him, saying that the two countries would negotiate peace and form an alliance. If the widow agrees, he will go to the city of Handan and sit down to talk in detail."

"What does that father mean?" Zhao Yu continued to ask Zhao Chong.

Zhao Chong thought about it and showed a look of embarrassment: "If we agree to negotiate peace and form an alliance, Wei Ying will definitely put forward a series of conditions that are difficult for our country to accept." But after all, Handan is in his hands, and it is the capital of our country, so no matter what you consider, you have to take it back."

"In that case, can we wait for the Qi State to send troops to defeat the Wei State, and then take advantage of the situation to recapture Handan." Zhao Yu thought about it and blurted out subconsciously.

Zhao Chong vetoed this proposal without thinking: "Although the Qi State has gradually become stronger and stronger over the years, the Wei State has a profound foundation after all, even if this battle is defeated. With the strength of our country, it is difficult to forcibly recapture Handan, not to mention that the Qi State sent troops with the mentality of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, if our country and the Wei State have been opposed, the Qi State will definitely look forward to it. Once our country and Wei negotiate peace, Qi will have to make a choice."

"What about my father? Could it be that he went to Xindu to negotiate peace?" Zhao Yu cautiously asked Zhao Chong.

Zhao Chong nodded slowly, and then fell into deep thought: "The widow will propose to the Wei State that if the widow wants to go outside Handan, then the Wei army in Handan must be transferred back on a large scale." At the same time, in order to show sincerity, the widow will also order the return of the soldiers of the feudal lords of various regions. Otherwise, the matter of peace shall be abandoned."

"The father is thoughtful, but the child is not as thoughtful." Zhao Yu took advantage of the compliment, but sighed in his heart. It seems that the father is very relieved about the soldiers of these princes. Otherwise, why did they force Wei to withdraw its troops.

Zhao Wuming couldn't interject at all, his lips moved, and he still didn't speak. More than ten years have passed, and even if it is a big friendship, it is estimated that it has long since turned into flowing water. At this time, why should King Zhao be so cautious.

Zhao Chong's eyes looked at Zhang Gao, who was standing respectfully on the side: "Chuan Shen Tu Xiu came in."

"Yes". Zhang Gao bowed, turned around and walked outside.

After a while, the sound of footsteps came, and Shen Tuxiu's gaze glanced at Zhao Wuming and Zhao Yu, revealing a look of disgust. Then he quickly covered up and bowed to Zhao Chong: "The last general will see the king."

"I called you here to ask you, now the envoys of Wei can settle down." Zhao Chong asked Shen Tuxiu.

Shen Tuxiu thought of the envoy of Wei, and bowed to Zhao Chong and replied: "It's all settled, but the envoy of Wei said that the king of Wei attaches great importance to this matter, and hopes that the king can discuss the matter of peace earlier."

"Earlier? Maybe Wei Ying is still an anxious son, and the widow will meet his request." After Zhao Chong finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Gao: "Immediately send the palace attendants to the mansion of the hundred officials, summon them to the palace to discuss, and the widow wants to open a court to discuss."

"Yes". Zhang Gao bowed, turned around and walked outside.

Watching Zhang Gao walk away, Zhao Chong looked at Shen Tuxiu: "Go immediately and inform the envoys of Wei that tonight is the great court."

"Yes". When Shen Tuxiu heard the command, he also turned around and walked out.
