In the palace of Jicheng in Yan Kingdom, an old man was watching the bamboo slips, and his eyes were not angry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Footsteps sounded, and a eunuch with a face similar to the old man's age walked in with bamboo slips in both hands, and with a smile on his face, people couldn't help but feel close: "King."

"What makes you so happy?" Ji Zheng heard the voice and put down the bamboo slip in his hand and asked the eunuch Ling Zuozhi.

Zuo Zhi handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Ji Zheng and explained to him: "I just received the letter of state from Zhao Guo, so the old slave is very happy."

"Zhao's national letter?". Ji Zheng took the bamboo slip handed by Zuo Zhi and did not open it immediately, but lowered his head and pondered: "The kingdom of the world is in chaos, first the battle of Qi and Wei. Immediately after the death of King Zhao Cheng, 200,000 Anyang soldiers besieged Handan, and Zhao Yu ascended the throne as King Zhao. The Qin State raided Hexi, and the Wei State suffered a heavy defeat. Now there is even more news that Zhao Guo raised an army of 400,000 troops on behalf of Yunjun to the south, but was defeated by the surprise attack of the Han State. The Qin State raised 600,000 troops and joined the Zhongshan State to pour out the country's strength, intending to carve up the Zhao State. At this time, what joy do you have when you receive Zhao Guo and the national letter? “。

"The king should add two major wars, the battle of Chu Yue and the destruction of Zheng in Korea." Zuo Zhi added to Ji Zheng's words.

Ji Zheng was not annoyed, but looked at Zuo Zhi suspiciously: "Since you know, then why are you happy?"

"Didn't the king say that? The Han State raided, and the Zhao State was defeated on behalf of Yunjun". Zuo Zhi prompted Ji Zheng.

Ji Zheng's puzzled expression became a little thicker: "The widow did say this."

"Han Kingdom". Zuo Zhi saw that Ji Zheng hadn't reacted yet, and prompted him again.

Ji Zheng seemed to understand something: "I heard that this country lives in the north of Zhao and west of Donghu, and some time ago, according to the eyeliner sent to Zhao by our country, it is said that the King of Han is Zhao Wuming, the fourth son of Zhao Chong."

"Then I don't know how much the king knows about the strength of the Han Kingdom?" Zuo Zhi asked Ji Zheng again.

Ji Zheng thought for a while: "I don't know the specific strength, but it is rumored that this country conquered Lou Fu, and there are nearly 400,000 or 500,000 troops in the south this time. Widows speculate that the strength of the Han Kingdom should be no less than that of any country today, but it has not been confirmed."

"Zhao Guo and the national book say that the person who sent the envoy to our country this time is Zhao Chengwang's fourth son and Han King Zhao Wuming." Zuo Zhi explained to Ji Zheng.

Ji Zheng was stunned for a moment, immediately shook his head again, and then sighed.

Zuo Zhi was a little puzzled by Ji Zheng's reaction: "Why is the king like this?"

"If it is the King of Han, the specific strength of the Han Kingdom has also been confirmed. The widow can lead hundreds of officials to meet the suburbs for thirty miles to discuss state affairs, but it is not only the king of Han who comes, I am afraid that it is a little difficult." Ji Zheng showed a sad face and explained to Zuo Zhi.

Zuo Zhi asked Ji Zheng puzzled: "I don't know what difficulties the king has."

"The world has become a quagmire, and my Yan country is in a corner and it is not easy to calm down the sword soldiers, so why bother to get involved in those troubles." Ji was explaining to Zuo Zhi, but there was another layer of hidden worry in his heart that he didn't say.

Zuo Zhi looked at Ji Zheng clearly about his worries, and asked cautiously: "But it's the King of Han who came."

"What is the strength of the Han Kingdom? What is their attitude towards Donghu? How much control did the Han King have over the Han Kingdom? “。 Ji was facing Zuo Zhi with a series of questions.

Zuo Zhi shook his head slightly: "My country is too far away from the Han Kingdom, and I don't know its specific news. However, it is said that when the Han soldiers met the Han king in Xindu, the Han king was asked to wear a crown, but the Han king refused to wear it on the grounds that Donghu had not been destroyed. If we only analyze this matter, the position of the Han King on Donghu should be the same as that of China."

"If you fail to understand those questions, you will not dare to regard him as the real king of Han for a day." Ji Zheng hesitated a little when he said this.

Zuo Zhi seemed to think of something, and replied to Ji Zheng: "Calculate the time, the manpower sent by my country to the Han Kingdom to investigate." It is estimated that they have arrived in their national capital, Seoul, and there should be news in January at the most."

"January?". Ji Zheng repeated in a low voice, gradually falling into deep thought.

Zuo Zhi asked Ji Zheng: "If the envoy of Zhao State comes, how should we greet him?"

"I don't know what kind of etiquette do you think the widow uses to greet this Han king, which is not rude." Ji Zheng asked rhetorically at Zuo Zhi.

Zuo Zhi thought for a while, and replied to Ji Zheng: "Please forgive the old slave for trespassing, the old slave thinks that no matter what kind of etiquette is used to greet him, it is rude."

"Zhao's letter of state has created a big problem for the widow." Ji Zheng looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and was at a loss for a while.

Zuo Zhi thought about it again and said to Ji Zheng: "The old slave has a way that is not a way, I don't know if the king is willing to listen to it."

"Not the way to do it?". Ji Zheng looked at Zuo Zhi and asked him.

Zuo Zhi looked at the letter of state in Ji Zheng's hand: "Before these questions are understood, why don't the king put this letter on the shelf."

"Blind? Pretend not to know? “。 Ji Zheng reacted immediately and asked Zuo Zhi.

Zuo Zhi continued to say to Ji Zheng: "The king can also secretly observe this person's popularity, and after everything is clear, it is not too late to make arrangements."

"If he is a genuine King of Han, the strength of the Han Kingdom is also the same as few people guess. This person asked my Yan Kingdom to send troops to Zhongshan Kingdom, what should I do if I am widowed? “。 Ji Zheng nodded slowly, and asked Zuo Zhi the second question he was most concerned about.

Zuo Zhi thought for a moment: "By that time, does the king want to send troops, or will he not send troops?"

"Zhao is a quagmire, and the widow naturally doesn't want to send troops." Ji Zheng replied to Zuo Zhi without thinking.

Zuo Zhi replied without thinking: "The king doesn't want to send troops, so he politely refuses."

"I'm afraid that those who come will not be good." Ji Zheng showed a wry smile, if he was really the Han King rumored in the north, I am afraid it would be difficult to deal with, after all, which one of the founding kings was easy to deal with.

Zuo Zhi saw that Ji was smiling bitterly, as if he had thought of something, his lips moved, and he finally endured it.

Ji Zheng happened to see Zuo Zhi's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and glanced at him unhappily: "If you have something to say, just say it."

"It is said that this person has a relationship with the daughter of the Yun family." Zuo Zhi saw Ji Zheng's displeased appearance, and immediately expressed his worries with his heart.

Ji Zheng instantly understood the meaning of Zuo Zhi's words: "Are you afraid of the prince?"

"The old slave deserves death, and the king is asked to surrender." Zuo Zhi hurriedly saluted Ji Zheng and hurriedly pleaded guilty.

Ji Zheng thought for a while and asked Zuo Zhi: "Zhao Guolai made the envoy Zhao Wuming, how many people know?" And how long will it take for him to get to Jicheng."

"Those who know that Zhao Guolai is Zhao Wuming, only the king and the old slave. As for the others, they only know that the envoys of Zhao have arrived, but they don't know who they are." Zuo Zhi replied respectfully to Ji Zheng.

When Ji Zheng heard these words, he looked at Zuo Zhi approvingly, and showed a satisfied smile: "The widow hasn't seen the prince for a long time, you let him come to the palace to talk to the widow." After that, don't rush back to the palace, just wander around the city slowly, and don't reveal your identity."

"Obey". Zuo Zhixin comprehended that he would bow to Ji Zheng, and then turned around and walked out.

Ji Zheng looked at Zuo Zhi in the distance, a mixed look appeared on his face, and then he fell into deep thought.
