When Xinlingjun's letter arrived in Pingyuanjun's hand, the convoy of the Korean mission also slowly drove into Handan City with the last touch of the sunset.

Every move of Zhang Ping and his entourage is under Zhao Sheng's control.

After reading Xin Lingjun's flying pigeon biography, Zhao Sheng naturally knew why South Korea would send such a grand mission, and also knew that the alliance between Wei and South Korea was imminent, and now the two sides only had a disagreement on the matter of compensation. It seems that God really helps Zhao Guoye! In this way, the alliance of the three Jin has become a general trend.

Even though Zhao Sheng was ecstatic about the arrival of the South Korean mission, he still reserved and did not make an appointment to meet Zhang Ping and his party. Even if Zhao Shengming knew that Zhao was more eager for an alliance than South Korea.

This is a diplomatic strategy that could not be more obvious, and the side that takes the initiative unconsciously falls below. Zhao Sheng couldn't be more familiar with such a trick.

The Korean mission packed their bags unhurriedly, and after some eating, they checked into the inn. Then Zhang Ping drove lightly to the Pingyuan Jun's Mansion.

Although Zhao Sheng's fief is in Dongwu, as the prime minister of Zhao State, Zhao Sheng naturally has a special mansion in Handan.

In the Warring States Period, where a prince and minister had a fief, where he was often reflected whether he was subject to **. It is obvious that a person who is relied on by the king will not have much free time to spend in his fiefdom.

Handing over the token to prove his identity, Zhang Ping took the guards and waited for Si Yan (the gatekeeper) to reply.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have a famous assassin, if it weren't for the fact that he was trying his best to meet the real power figure of Zhao State, Pingyuanjun, Zhang Ping would not have taken the liberty of visiting without an appointment.

After only half a cup of tea, the main entrance of Pingyuanjun slowly opened. Si Yan respectfully led Zhang Ping to the middle gate, and at the middle gate, Zhao Sheng smiled with a spring breeze on his face: "I don't want Prime Minister Zhang Cheng to come to the cold house, it really makes the cold house shine!" ”

Although he had never seen Pingyuanjun, Zhang Ping still knew from his graceful and luxurious tone that this was the famous Pingyuanjun.

At the moment, Zhang Ping also said politely: "Today, when I see the world-famous Pingyuan Jun, it really deserves its name." It's rude, disturbing Pingyuanjun late at night, and please atone for your sins! ”

"Where is it, why did Prime Minister Zhang Cheng say this. Tonight is the fifteenth, the moon is high, and Shengzheng wants to have a drink. The prime minister came just in time! Wouldn't it be beautiful for you and me to cook wine and admire the moon together? ”

"I don't dare to ask for ears."

After speaking, the two laughed tacitly and walked into the Plains Monarch's Mansion hand in hand. The passers-by looked at the gradually closing gate of the Pingyuan Jun's Mansion in surprise, thinking to themselves which powerful person deserved to be greeted by the Pingyuan Jun himself!

The two chatted about the ups and downs, Zhao Shengping retired the maidservant, and said: "Prime Minister Zhang Cheng came from thousands of miles away, I don't know what to do?" ”

Zhang Ping was overjoyed, and the other party finally couldn't bear it anymore. It was also Zhengse who replied: "Ping came from Xinzheng, and he came for the safety of Zhao Guo." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Sheng smiled and asked, "I don't know why the prime minister said this?" ”

"South Korea is very respectful to Zhao Guo, and all countries know it. Now your country's division is unknown, and he unites Wei to commit my Huayang. Such a treacherous act not only chilled South Korea, but also made all countries deeply warn them. Zhang Ping immediately preemptively struck with the intention of seizing the moral high ground.

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng immediately retorted: "The prime minister's words are wrong. Zhao, Wei, and Han are all three Jin Dynasty, and the reason for the death of lips and cold teeth is known to everyone in Zhao State. The State of Qin repeatedly crossed your country and invaded the State of Wei, causing the lives of the State of Wei to be devastated. Our king was merciful and did not want the people of Wei to suffer from the scourge of swords, so at the repeated request of the king of Wei, he sent troops to assist Wei in garrisoning the border. ”

After briefly explaining the reason why the 20,000 cavalry of the Zhao army went south, Zhao Sheng changed his words and retorted: "Recently, there was a secret report that the Qin State wanted to attack Daliang on the occasion of the New Year. Considering that your country has repeatedly allowed the Qin army to pass through the border, we have no choice but to garrison the territory of Korea to prevent the Qin army from attacking. However, the first war of your country caused my Great Zhao to lose 20,000 elites, and my king was very angry! ”

Anyway, the Zhao and Wei coalition forces were defeated before they could start fighting Huayang, and Zhao Sheng simply argued that this was an undeserved accident.

The blame was on South Korea's nervous overtension, which led to this tragedy. At the same time, Zhao Sheng's words insinuated that South Korea's position was problematic and allowed Qin to invade Wei. Even if Zhao and Wei are wrong, they are just treating others in their own way.

Hearing Zhao Sheng's almost unreasonable remarks, Zhang Ping was not angry, smiled slightly, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said: "Even if you block the Qin army, your country does not notify our country, I am afraid that it is inappropriate to act like this!" The 150,000 troops of your country and the Wei country are so vigorous that it will inevitably make everyone in Korea frightened. ”

"Before Ping's departure, there was a constant debate between the DPRK and China. Some people say that Zhao is powerful, and now it is united with Wei to invade Korea, and Korea can only survive by relying on Qin; Some people say that Qin is a wolf with ambitions, and this battle of Huayang is an accident, and only Zhao can be trusted. But as Pingyuanjun said, is this battle of Huayang a misunderstanding? If it is a misunderstanding, I think I can build my king close to Zhao and alienate Qin. ”

Zhao Sheng looked overjoyed, and was just about to make a promise. Zhang Ping didn't give Pingyuanjun a chance to speak, and continued his remarks: "But Pingyuanjun, you also know that our Korea has been weak for a long time, especially the year before last, when Qin attacked Wei, South Korea sent troops to rescue and lost 40,000 soldiers, but Zhao ignored it. Some ministers said that Zhao did not dare to compete with Qin, and South Korea could not benefit from relying on Zhao. Ping is very embarrassed! ”

Zhao Sheng's embarrassed look flashed, and everyone knew that if it weren't for the defeat of the Chu State, the Zhao State would still continue its low-key plan for peaceful development. Now in order to protect himself, he has to resist Qin.

The prime minister laughed. Two years ago, the Huns invaded our border, and our army marched north. The prime minister is not in northern Xinjiang, I am afraid that he does not know the strength of the Huns, and the Huns live in the grass, coming and going like the wind. and all men are good at riding and shooting, and are as cruel as wolves. It's really the enemy of the north of my Zhao country! Because the Northern Expedition could not draw troops for a while, it was impossible to rescue Wei in time. For the threat from the Qin State, we in the Zhao State are very vigilant. ”

Zhang Ping didn't expose Pingyuanjun's lies, but just asked: "Now that the Qin State has become a great trend, the national strength is strong. Qi and Wei have declined, and the Chu State has been newly defeated, I don't know what the Zhao State has planned? ”

"Without him, I can only swear to fight Qin to the death. Now that I am Da Zhao, I am united, the monarch and the minister serve to death, it is good that Qin does not offend me, if Qin offends me, I will face the blow. Pingyuanjun said righteously.

Zhang Ping smiled and asked, "I don't know how the national strength of the Zhao State is compared to the Qin State?" ”

"It's better to do more." Zhao Sheng was a little discouraged.

"Then Qin and Zhao are at war, and Pingyuan Jun thinks Zhao has a chance of winning?"

"It's only forty percent." Zhao Sheng was even more disappointed.

"If you add Han and Wei, the three kingdoms work together, I don't know how many chances there are?" Zhang Ping finally said the meaning of the union of the three Jins.

"If the three kingdoms work together and there is no discord, the odds of winning will be as little as 70% and as much as 80%. Enough to be invincible. Zhao Sheng looked surprised.

"Now that the Wei State has agreed to form an alliance with our country, if the Zhao State is willing to join, the Three Jin Dynasty will be rebuilt. Internally, it deters the young, and externally makes the countries dare not underestimate. "Zhang Ping is building yì at the moment.

"The name of the plain gentleman is spread all over the country, and it is natural to know that the Zhao country is now famous in the Kanto region, which seems to be beautiful, but in fact it is like walking on thin ice. The momentum of the Qin State sweeping the world has been achieved, and Han and Wei will bear the brunt. If Han and Wei die, Zhao will follow in the footsteps of Han and Wei, and this is the death of the lips and the cold teeth. In today's autumn of survival, the Sanjin non-alliance has no way to survive, and cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and division is harmful to both sides. ”

"Sheng also looks at it this way, but if it is really an alliance to resist Qin, and the countries pass the buck to each other, how can you explain it?" Hirahara-kun raised his own question.

"It's not the same time as it used to be. In the past, the ambition of the Six Nations to conquer Qin was not rewarded, all because the Six Nations were stagnant and their hearts were not aligned. The State of Qi is bent on seeking the State of Song, and the State of Yan intends to weaken the State of Qi. Su Qin's argument of tongue, the so-called conspiracy, but to make the Qi State isolate itself from other countries, not to destroy Qin. ”

"Today, the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Han originate from one country. is also the first line of resistance to Qin, the border is uneasy, and the alliance is formed to protect itself. In today's situation, who would not dare to do their best? Plains Jun's worries can be dispelled. In the past, Han Xianzi helped Zhao Wenzi in the fire and water, and rejuvenated the Zhao family (the matter of Zhao's orphans), and now there are Han and Zhao to advance and retreat together, and work together to resist Qin. Isn't it beautiful! ”

"Good. Mr.'s heartfelt words are really the voice of victory. Tomorrow, Shengbi will make every effort to promote the alliance between Zhao and Han. Zhao Sheng finally stopped being pretentious and showed his attitude.

"In order to go to the court tomorrow and win the day, why don't we go to visit Lin Shangqing overnight, how about Prime Minister Li Cheng?"

"It couldn't be better." Zhang Ping was originally worried about not touching Li Dui, after all, Li Dui basically ignored the affairs of the DPRK and China. Now that Plains Jun Ken is personally on the horse, it is excellent.

The two of them rode in the same carriage to Lin Xiangru's mansion first.

How smart Lin Xiang is, a glance cast by Pingyuan Jun made the celebrity in front of King Zhao instantly understand that the matter of the alliance between Zhao and Han has been decided. didn't shirk it at the moment, and the three of them went to the prime minister's mansion overnight.

Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Dui is about to rest.

After all, the age is there, and Li Dui, who is already in his prime, is far less than before.

Think about this life, a teenager in the army, and a middle-aged career. The wisest choice was the Dune Change, which saved the life of King Zhao.

This gamble made a lot of money on its own. It's like Feiyi, who is foolish and loyal to the master's father, but he doesn't stand on either side, and finally ends up pitiful.

King Zhao is a person who misses his old feelings and promotes himself to be prime minister. Even if he is old and can't share his worries for King Zhao, King Zhao also treats himself preferentially.

At this time, the housekeeper Lao Li hurriedly approached.

The people who came outside were all big shots, even though it was getting late. However, the other party's choice of this time to visit obviously has a major matter to discuss. Therefore, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion must not delay for a moment to come to report the news.

"Master, Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, Lin Xiangru of Shangqing, and Zhang Ping, the prime minister of South Korea, are asking to see you outside."

"Hurry up, please." Li Dui put down his memories and hurriedly trimmed his appearance and went to the study. The three of them came together, thinking of the results of the Battle of Huayang, and the purpose of their trip was about to come out.

"Old Prime Minister, it's presumptuous to visit late at night. disturbed the prime minister's dream, and Sheng confessed first. As soon as Zhao Sheng entered the door, he was sorry at first.

Li Dui waved his hand and said with a smile: "Why did Pingyuanjun say this, the old man can't wait for Pingyuanjun to bother every day!" Pingyuanjun, you still owe the old man a jar of wine! ”

Zhao Sheng was embarrassed, the last time he came, he just gave the old prime minister a jar of wine, and he was talked about so far. Li Dui has been the prime minister for so many years, and the money he has earned is close to rivaling the country.

"This is Prime Minister Zhang Cheng of South Korea, the old man has lost his sins." Li Dui made an innocuous joke, but looked at Zhang Ping.

"The old prime minister is serious, it is the younger generation who is not thoughtful, this is Zhang Ping's fault."

In the face of this officialdom tumbler who is more than 30 years older than himself, Zhang Pingbiao showed enough respect.

As he spoke, the guests and hosts sat down. Li Dui was the first to speak: "Pingyuanjun and Lin Shangqing came to visit late at night, and Prime Minister Zhang Cheng was by his side, I'm afraid they came for the alliance of Zhao and Han, right?" ”

Zhang Ping looked surprised and praised: "The old prime minister is like a god, and the younger generation is convinced. ”

"I can probably guess what you're trying to do. As soon as the state of Chu fell, the threat to the south of the state of Qin ceased to exist. It is bound to double the conquest of the Three Jins, and the Three Jin Dynasty will not be able to protect themselves if they do not align with each other. Tomorrow, when the court is in court, I will build an alliance with the king. ”
