Zhao Guo, Bai Renyi.

The Bai people are bordered by Zhongshan in the north, Zhangshui in the east, and Handan, the capital of Zhao State, less than 200 miles to the south. At the beginning, Zhao Guo was a great waste of hard work in order to eliminate Zhongshan State, after all, Zhongshan State is located in the heart of Zhao State, and it has been repeatedly destroyed but revived, like a time bomb. It was at this time that Bairenyi was greatly developed, and now it is the great city of Zhao State second only to Handan.

South Korea's Huang Bo and his entourage have been staying in Bairen for ten days. In the past ten days, they have gone out early and returned late, looking for a person, but every day their search has been in vain. As the crown prince Zhan Shi, Huang Bo put a lot of important things to do, and traveled thousands of miles to Bairen to find someone he had never heard of, just because of a dream of the crown prince.

When the prince had not yet returned to Xinzheng, he sent people to hurry back to the prince's mansion for 800 li, and instructed Huang Bo to immediately take people to Bairenyi to find a man named Li Mu. In the letter, the prince said that this person was given to him by the gods and was of great use in Korea.

In this way, Huang Bo inexplicably began to sleep in the open air, wearing stars and moons. Who Li Mu is, how old he is, whether his home is in the city or the countryside, he doesn't know anything about these Huang Bo. Searching for such a well-known person in Bairenyi, which has a population of 150,000, is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. But the prince has a life, and Huang Bo can only do his best.

The prince knew the difficulty of finding Li Mu, but at least as long as he looked for it, there was still hope of finding it; If you don't look for it, there's no hope at all. When he captured Yiyang, the prince began to calculate what other virtuous ministers could be recovered, and the name Li Mu jumped out in this way.

But the crown prince was not sure whether Li Mu was already loyal to the Zhao state, so when he was separated from Lian Po, the prince pretended to ask inadvertently if there was a young general surnamed Yingshi Li in the Zhao state. Lian Po didn't know why, and replied honestly, "I haven't heard that there is a newly rising young talent surnamed Li in the army."

The prince was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was impassive, and he cleverly diverted the topic. After sending away Lian Po's army, the prince's heart was opened, and historical records record that in 244 BC, Li Mu led the army to defeat the Xiongnu. More than ten years ago, Li Mu was appointed as a high-ranking official guarding Yanmen and Yunzhong counties, according to common sense, he can hold such an important position, he must be a confidant of King Zhao, no matter what, he should be thirty or forty years old, or even older or less. Now, you may have joined the army as an adult, or you may have just been born. For this famous general who is even strong Qin, the prince likes it from the bottom of his heart. Talent! It's no wonder you don't like it!

The crown prince had already made up his mind, if he had already joined the army at this time, he would let his Zhan Shi Huang Bo resort to a divisive plan, let him live in all kinds of discomfort, and finally throw an olive branch when he quit the army in frustration.

If he happens to have just been born, then establish a good relationship first. As for bringing it back to South Korea for development, the prince will not consider it for the time being. Famous generals also need a growth environment, who knows if they will be unknown after coming to South Korea, and the prince doesn't want to take this risk. Of course, what Prince Ran hopes most is that Li Mu is about to become an adult in the army at this time, which is the most trouble-free. But as for what will happen, only God can decide.

After the blood alliance, the kings of Han, Zhao, and Wei stayed in Chaoge for another five days, and then returned to China. At the time of parting, Zhao Guoshangqing Lian Po pulled the prince to babble non-stop, and tried his best to invite the prince to go to Handan when he was free. This was originally a touching side, but it made uninformed people think that the two were full of affection.

The reason why Lian Po was so moved was because he was crowned the king of Zhao and was called Xinpingjun. You must know that Lian Po is a border general. In the state of Zhao, a border general could be promoted and held important positions through his military exploits, but it was difficult for him to become a nobleman.

With this great defeat of the Qin army and the expansion of the territory of 500 miles, Lian Po finally got his wish and won the title of feudal king. Lian Po knew better than anyone that if it weren't for Prince Ran's series of tricks, although he would have won, it would be difficult for him to become the king. You must know that before this, he had also made a great contribution to breaking Donghu and recovering Daijun, but he was only rewarded with some money.

In fact, the prince knew very well that if it weren't for the wings instigated by his "butterfly", Lian Po would indeed have been in an embarrassing position that was not expensive. It was not until the defeat of Zhao in the Battle of Changping that the Yan State took advantage of the situation to invade, and Lian Po relied on the immortal merit of breaking the 600,000 Yan army that he reluctantly became the king.

At the same time, Zhao Hao, who has the distant blood of the Zhao royal family, was named Ma Fujun by virtue of the first battle of the Zhao Dynasty, and the Korean Shangdang Taishou Feng Ting and the Qin general Zheng Anshi won the titles of Huayang Jun and Wuyang Jun respectively in Zhao Tou. It can be seen that the nobles of the Zhao State discriminated against the ministers of commoner origin.

The so-called never forget, there will be an echo. Just when the crown prince followed King Han back to Xinzheng, a messenger from thousands of miles away also brought back news of Fan Sui.

"What? Is there any news of Fan Sui? Bring the messenger in. As soon as the prince heard that there was an envoy outside asking to see him, he immediately ordered the concubine to bring the envoy in.

"Quick! Sue me! How's the gentleman? As soon as he saw Fan Sui's envoy, the prince couldn't wait to ask.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please rest assured, Mr. Zhang is fine. This is a letter from Mr. Zhang to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The messenger took the letter from his bosom and presented it with both hands. (Note: At this time, Fan Sui was a pseudonym in South Korea under the pseudonym Zhang Lu)

The prince couldn't wait to unfold the bamboo slips, and in the bamboo slips, Fan Sui told the prince the ins and outs of his defeat, and said that now there are only 30,000 soldiers in Yiqu, and the remaining 300,000 are all old and weak women and children, who are unbearable to fight.

In order to avoid the attack of the Qin state at any time, Fan Sui had persuaded the king of Yiqu to move north from the Great Wall. It is now inhabited by the Linhu and Loufu tribes that were driven west by the Zhao State, and belonged to the Xiongnu Youxian King. By virtue of blood relations, Yiqu should be able to be incorporated into the Xiongnu and become one of the tribes.

In the letter, Fan Sui also established that South Korea could continue to support Yiqu, strengthen its momentum, and maintain a good friendship. When South Korea expands its territory to the north, it may have a miraculous effect. After settling Yiqu, Fan Sui would make a detour to Zhao to return to Xinzheng Yunyun.

After reading the letter, it was not enough, so Wang Ziran pondered carefully again for a while, and then raised his head and asked with concern: "How many guards are there around Mr. Zhang now?" ”

Fan Sui's letter did not tell him about other recent situations, but only mentioned how after the defeat of the Yiqu army, he caused trouble to the west and provoked discord between the Qin State and the Yue Clan, so as to get rid of the pursuing soldiers. But the prince knows the danger of this, and if he is a little careless, he is playing with fire**. The guards he handed over to Fan Sui at the beginning were not much left after saving Yiqu Hong, although he later added some to Fan Sui, but after this defeat, there should not be many guards.

"Returning to the crown prince, counting the humble position, there are only ten of Mr. Zhang's guards left."

"That's too little!" The prince sighed, calculated in his heart again, and said: "It's not good to sneak across the border if there are too many people, in this way, I will arrange another hundred people, and you will take them to protect Mr. Zhang." In any case, you will all have to escort Mr. Zhang back safely, you know? ”

"Whoa!" The messenger answered.

"Uncle Zhong." The prince said to the housekeeper beside him.

"The old slave is here!"

"Take him down! Remember to go to the bookkeeper and give him a reward of ten gold. Let the guards choose a hundred clever guards, and set off for Saiwai this afternoon. ”

"Whoa!"

Thousands of miles away, in Bairenyi, Huang Bo and his entourage have also made a major breakthrough in their search for people. After going through several twists and turns, Huang Bo finally found the person Tai Ziran liked, ahh Huang Bo immediately sent someone to inquire about the other party's situation. The boy had just turned eighteen, and he seemed to be a little stronger than his peers, and his spirit was nothing special at all. But the huge Bai Renyi has almost been rummaged by them, and there should be nothing wrong with only such a person surnamed Ying's Li Mingmu in front of him.

In order to prevent mistakes, Huang Bo still sent a subordinate who knew the accent of Zhao Guo to pretend to be fleeing people passing by Li's house, and took advantage of the door to beg for water to get an opportunity to communicate and test. As soon as he became familiar with it, Huang Bo's subordinates began to tell their tragic experiences, and they talked about the world. Then he commented on the general trend of the world and the battle of the wild kings that ended not long ago, and deliberately revealed many flaws in his words, and there were more words to slander the employment system of Zhao State. The young and vigorous Li Mu was really fooled, and immediately refuted them one by one, saying that what he said was well-founded and very insightful.

Only then did Huang Bo believe that the other party should be the Li Mu he was looking for. immediately identified himself, saying that he was the prince Zhan Shi of Han Ran, the prince of South Korea, and now he came to Bairen thousands of miles away to find Li Mu. Li Mu is the destined virtuous minister of Prince Ran, otherwise the gods would not have entrusted his dream to Prince Ran, so that he would know that there is such a person in Bairen.

People in this era still have a lot of reverence for ghosts and gods. Li Mu's family background is not prominent, just a flat-headed commoner, and the other party is the Korean prince Zhan Shi, it is indeed impossible to be bored enough to travel thousands of miles to play himself. Moreover, Zhao Guo is indeed as the "fugitive" just said, Zonggui rejects people from civilian background. If Li Mu stays in Zhao State, if there is no good opportunity, it will be difficult to get ahead. Now that there is such a good opportunity, Li Mu is indeed a little eager to try.

Huang Bo immediately took out 100 gold, saying that he knew that Li Mu's father was now sick in bed and had difficulty moving. This 100 gold rights should be the cost of Li Mu's father's treatment. After recuperating for a period of time, Taiziran will solicit famous doctors from all over the world for Li Mu's father. Then he took out 100 gold and said that the 100 gold was for Li Mu's family to settle down. He also told Li Mu that the prince was very hopeful that Li Mu would be loyal to South Korea, and had purchased a house and servants for Li Mu's family in the prosperous land of Xinzheng, and they could move in at any time.

Seeing that Huang Bo was so sincere, Li Mu's mother and son were already very moved, but they still asked Li Mu's father who was sick. After obtaining consent, Li Mu finally made up his mind to return south to Korea.
