Chapter 372: Sensitive
In the palace of King Zhao, King Zhao was furious.
Under His Majesty's platform, a group of people were nervous, not daring to make a sound, for fear that the wrath of the lord of a country would come upon him.
"How can this be true? The money will go to the widow. β
There was a crying sound in his ears, and King Zhao felt a little upset.
The queen of today's Zhao State, Gongzi Qian's biological mother, is beside King Zhao, wiping tears from time to time.
"Your Majesty, you must save Qian'er!"
"What the hell is going on!"
King Zhao looked at the people below, they were all Gongzi Qian's servants.
"My lord, a few days ago, my son was hunting at the border, and when he was sheltering from the rain, he met a few women and wanted to marry as concubines. But I didn't expect that when the son went with the dowry, he was tied up by that family and has not been traced to this day. β
"Ridiculous!" King Zhao looked at the people below and waved his hand, "Pull down all of them and kill them!" β
Below was a crowd of voices begging for mercy, King Zhao ignored it, and his anger did not subside, and he looked at Queen Zhao.
"Look at the good son you taught!"
For a while, Queen Zhao's crying voice was much quieter.
"Your Majesty, although Qian'er has been messing around since he was a child, he also has dozens of guards around him, what can ordinary gangsters do to kidnap him?"
"What do you mean?"
After listening to Queen Zhao's words, King Zhao's accumulated anger eased a little.
"How can there be such a coincidence in the world, when Qian'er was hunting, I happened to meet a few beautiful women? What's more, after Li Mu's border army went south to Imperial Qin, there were Xiongnu invasions from time to time. Most of the Zhao people in that area went south, where did these people come from? β
The more King Zhao thought about it, the more suspicious he felt, but there was no suspicious target in his heart.
But Queen Zhao is different, she already has a goal in her heart
"Your Majesty, if this is the work of an enemy country, it will definitely not be as simple as gold and silver. What worries me is the internal troubles of the Zhao State. At this time, Gongzijia was very close to the Yan people and the Wei people, and even had close contacts with the ministers of the DPRK and China. King, don't be careful! β
Hearing this, King Zhao waved his hand.
"Jia'er probably not. What's more, sending him to deal with the affairs of Yedi was agreed to by the widow. β
It's just that if Qin wants to attack Zhao, there are only two directions.
One is that Yue Tai is dangerous, from north to south, attacking Zhao Di; One is to enter Hanoi through Sanchuan and cross the Zhangshui to besiege Handan.
The ultimate goal of Qin's battle against Zhao was to capture Handan and destroy Zhao.
It's just that for Zhao State, there is no need to worry about Qin's previous march route, because there are many dangers and obstacles along the way, there are several important military towns of Zhao State, and the Qin army left Hangu to join the party and crossed the Taihang to Handan It is a big circle, and the situation is favorable to Zhao State.
What Zhao really needs to worry about is the Qin army's last route of march. Because on this road, the Qin army could directly penetrate the capital of Zhao and deal a devastating blow to Zhao.
The southern part of Handan is flat and there is no danger to defend. This latter route is also the route used by the enemy in the south of Zhao to attack Zhao for more than a hundred years.
To this end, the state of Zhao built the Great Wall along the Zhangshui River to protect the southern part of Handan. After the Qin state became powerful, it strengthened the Zhangshui defense line, built fortifications, and added military towns to defend against the Qin army.
After Yedi was returned to Zhao, Huanshui was also included in the territory of Zhao. The Zhao army relied on the water system, and the defense system in the south of Handan became more complete. Yedi is already rich, coupled with its military value, it is always valued by King Zhao.
"Your Majesty, Gongzi Jia has long complained about the king. Now that Qian'er has been captured by gangsters, his biggest obstacle is gone, and the next one is the king! β
Queen Zhao saw that King Zhao was deep in thought, and added another fire.
"What's more, who sent this villain, let's talk about it!"
Bang!
King Zhao slapped one hand on the table, a little uneasy.
"Pass on the widow's king's order, let Gongzi Jia find Qian'er. If Qian'er can't come back unscathed, he will give me a horse on my behalf! β
....................
"What the hell is going on?"
Queen Zhao returned to the harem and secretly met with Zhao Xiang Guo Kai. At this time, Empress Zhao did not have the weakness and obedience at all with King Zhao, her eyebrows were gloomy, and she was ruthless.
"None of the people sent by the minister to protect the prince have come back, it seems that they have encountered a ruthless character. It's just, is it really Gongzi Jia's doing? β
Guo Kai was a little suspicious, but he couldn't be sure.
"Him?" Empress Zhao smiled coldly, very disdainful, "If he had the courage and ability, he would have been the king of Zhao a long time ago." Is there a place for our mother and son? β
"Who could that be?"
Guo Kai glanced at Zhao Hou, but saw the other party's cold gaze.
"The princesses of the Zhao State are hostile to our mother and son, saying that I am from a humble background and am not worthy of being the wife of King Zhao. What's the matter, is Lord Guo Kai going to change his court now? β
When Guo Kai heard this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately knelt down.
"Even if the minister has 10,000 guts, he doesn't dare to kidnap the son and blackmail the king!"
"If you know! Zhao Xiang should remember that we are in the same boat. Now that the king's health is getting worse and worse, if Gongzi Jia is allowed to gain power, you and I will not have a good life. β
"The minister understands!"
Empress Zhao waved his sleeves, took a few steps back, sat back in his place, and looked at Guo Kai.
"Don't you have a lot of contact with the Qin State? Find out, whose hand is it? β
"Obey orders!"

Wei Di.
Zhao Gao sat alone and was playing alone on the chessboard.
A carriage came galloping in, disturbing Zhao Gao's purity. He frowned, and before the carriage approached, he saw more than a dozen assassins rushing out, and in the pure bamboo forest, there was a murderous aura in an instant.
"It's me!"
The person driving the horse was cut off from the water, but he saw that he drove the carriage to the small courtyard and hurried to Zhao Gao.
"What?"
"When my subordinates returned from Yedi not long ago, they found him in the stronghold of Luowang."
A group of people carried the man in the carriage out, but they saw him unconscious.
"Who is he?"
At this time, Zhao Gao still had the leisure to make a move, but when the broken water muttered a few times in his ear, the chess pieces in his hand snapped and fell on the chessboard.
"Have you been interrogated?"
Broken Water nodded.
"He doesn't seem to know who kidnapped him, but he remembers the name of the net, and seems to have put the account on us." Zhao Gao's brows were furrowed, and he didn't know what to do for a while? He was afraid that this was a trap set by the enemy for Luo Wang, and the first thing that came to mind was Zhao Shuang's name.
"Guo Kaiben has a gap with us because of the matter of 800 dead soldiers. But not long ago, he took the initiative to contact us for his whereabouts. What should we do, are we going to sell a favor to Guo Kai? β
Zhao Gao shook his head and rejected this opinion.
"I am afraid that as soon as this man is handed over, the net will be destroyed. At this time, it was a sensitive time, and the matter on LΓΌ Buwei's side had not been resolved, so he could not give the truth. β
"So what to do?"
"Prince Yan and Gongzi Jia are planning the peace talks between Yan and Zhao, this person is a sharp weapon, used properly, and can destroy the relationship between Yan and Zhao by surprise."
"My subordinates understood."
After the water was cut off, Zhao Gao's eyes were angry, and his hands were clenched.
"Zhao Shuang, let the you pull let the net wipe it. You're so good. β
