Chapter 82: Li Mu appears
King Zhao sent an order for the envoys of Qin to meet him. Under the leadership www.biquge.info of the guide, Ying Ping walked through the layers of the hall and walked towards the high platform where King Zhao was.
Ying Ping walked all the way and kept an eye out for these local officials. I saw that most of the officials were sitting upright, with expressionless faces, looking at their noses, noses, mouths, and hearts, looking at their mouths and hearts, looking at their peace and stability. A small number of other officials gathered together in twos and threes, talking to each other and whispering, obviously caring about the next work report. There are also a small number of officials, especially the border army faction led by Li Mu, who give people a unique feeling, all of them are heroic, their waists are straight, and they are righteous and awe-inspiring. A general stood in the middle of the generals of the border army, with gray hair, long beard, and a thin face, giving people a feeling of light and breeze. Ying Ping knew that this was the famous Zhao Guo Li Mu, and he admired it in his heart, but he knew that this was the real "Great Wall of Zhao State", and if this person was not removed, Zhao Guo would be difficult to destroy.
Looking at the past all the way, he has come to the high platform where King Zhao is. The reason why this martial spirit congtai is named "congtai" is because there are many pavilions in the park, and they are not one. The place where the magistrates temporarily stayed just now belonged to the small platform. The place where King Zhao is located belongs to the highest platform in the park. These platforms face each other from afar, but they are connected by a road, like the beacon tower of the Great Wall. It has both beautiful and practical effects.
On the throne of the high platform, a middle-aged man was reclining, slightly fat, with fair skin and a splendid body. Next to him stood a full of armor guards, ministers of civil and military affairs. Prime Minister Guo Kai is at the forefront of ministers. Ying Ping knew that the fat man on the throne was Zhao Wangqian.
"The foreign minister wins, meet King Zhao!" Ying Ping bowed his hand slightly, and his body bent slightly, which was regarded as a salute.
A large number of people from the Qin State up and down King Zhao were obviously very curious. People say that the Qin people are tigers and wolves, and they are ferocious, but look at this Qin people, they are elegant and heroic, and they have the demeanor of a countryman. It seems that most of what people say is false.
"Why did you come?" King Zhao spoke, his voice not very loud. As soon as Ying Ping heard it, he knew that this was caused by a long-term delay in wine, which hollowed out his body, resulting in a lack of middle qi.
"Come for Qin Zhao to get married!" Ying Ping's mouth burst out of these seven words, and he didn't say more. He needs to listen first, watch first, and after clarifying his position, observe the reaction of Zhao Guojun's ministers, and then find words to deal with it. If you start with a long speech, regardless of the feelings of the audience, if it touches the mold, it will be difficult.
A smile appeared on King Zhao's fat face, and his small eyes began to glow. He wasn't an aggressive person, and he didn't like to fight and kill. There is the largest warring state in the world to take the initiative to form an alliance, so why not. There is both face and lining. contributed to this, then he also did a great good thing for Zhao Guosheji.
"Good, good!" King Zhao clapped his fat hands and said three good things in a row. "Since King Qin has this heart, it is a blessing for the people of the two countries. Please rest assured, I will do my best to promote friendship between the two countries. Come, come, give a seat. The debriefing meeting is about to begin, and Childe can attend as observers. After the debriefing was over, Gongzi told my courtiers the detailed plan to listen to it, and everyone worked together to seek the well-being of Zhao and Qin! ”
Looking at Ying Ping, although this King Zhao is not helpful, he will not be completely mediocre. Military affairs are also known and discussed with the courtiers. He is not in a hurry to make a decision now, and he will let himself show his face in front of the Minister of Zhao State later. I just want to hear everyone's opinions. After all, Qin Zhao feuded and now suddenly proposed to form an alliance and reconcile, which is a bit strange for anyone. When you encounter something you can't see through, you might as well let it go, or listen to the opinions of others, which is also a responsible approach.
As the saying goes, the Taoist is as he pleases, and Ying Ping listened to King Zhao's arrangement, and it was inconvenient to say anything, so he stepped aside and watched the monarchs and ministers of Zhao with cold eyes. There will also be a meeting of the magistrates' debriefings later, and it is also a good choice to observe their reports.
After a while, the debriefing meeting began. The first to come in was Handan Ling Zhao Gong, Handan is the national capital, and Handan Orders are generally held by Zhao relatives. This Zhao Gong is also the patriarch of the Zhao family. Ren Handan Ling has been in charge for more than ten years, and there is nothing major wrong. Ying Ping listened to his report, which was also mediocre and unremarkable. Knowing that this kind of person represents the majority of the ministers of the Zhao State, they have no merit and no obvious political leanings. It belongs to the ordinary people who do what the master does.
Listening to such reports, listening to the first one is very fresh, and then listening to it, the more and more I want to fall asleep, especially the reports they make, most of them are high-sounding official articles, and every sentence is pragmatic and not pragmatic. It's even more tireless to listen to.
Ying Ping went to see King Zhao, only to see that King Zhao was already drowsy, and his eyelids were constantly fighting. It's just that he was forced by the identity of King Zhao and didn't dare to sleep blatantly. Ministers, what I reported last night, is in this high platform, according to the grade, find a seat and sit down, and listen to King Zhao's comments later, in addition to some national affairs, which need to be discussed together.
When I was drowsy, I saw the sound of footsteps outside sounding, like a war drum, urging people to forge ahead, and the silent atmosphere in the entire hall was broken. And all the people opened their sleepy eyes and looked at the door. Win Pingxin said, this person walks with great momentum, and he must be a general.
Sure enough, with a flicker of the door, a tall figure walked in. The whole body is dressed in military uniform, majestic, and at first glance, it is Li Mu. When I saw him just now, he was wearing civilian clothes, but now he is wearing armor, and his temperament is obviously different. The feeling of light clouds and light wind disappeared, and the aura of majesty and slaughter came out from the armor, which made many officials in the hall who had never been on the battlefield also frightened.
"Minister Li Mu, meet the king!" Li Mu bent down and bowed, and his voice was like a bell.
"Li Aiqing, good, good, hahaha. You ran from Yanmen County in the north, it's really hard, hurry up, give me a seat! "King Zhao obviously values Li Mu very much, and before he started to report on his work, he directly gave him a seat. The officials in front of me didn't have that kind of treatment. It's no wonder that no matter how brainless a leader is, at least he knows who is really working for him and who can be relied on. Li Mulian was invincible in the Qin army twice, and he was exactly the object that the monarch needed to rely on.
Li Mu arched his hands and said, "Thank you for the throne!" He sat down without humility or arrogance and began to report on his work. Starting from the establishment, training, combat achievements, and logistics of the northern border army, one by one, one by one, it is really like a number of treasures. It can be seen that his familiarity with the border army of Zhao State and his understanding of military affairs have reached the point of irreplaceability. Even Yingping was on the side, not at all familiar with Zhao's national situation, and he listened to it with relish.
In the end, Li Mu talked about the general trend of the world, and it was still from a high position, which no one had ever seen. As he spoke, he turned his words around and said in a loud voice: "The husband is so big today, the biggest threat to Zhao is not in the Xiongnu, not in the Shandong countries, but in the Qin country!" If the Qin State is not removed, the Zhao State will be difficult to be safe! May my king make plans sooner! ”
As soon as these words came out, not only King Zhao was surprised, but Yingping, who had been listening, was also shocked, and secretly said that Li Mu was going to be a bad thing now.
