After getting the news of Zhao Ji's banquet, Zhao Ying was heartbroken for a while, and hurriedly invited Zhao's ministers Yin Duo, Fu Ben, Mail Wuxian, Shi Di, and Dou Li to their own tents and sat down.

The faces of the people present were very solemn.

Obviously, they are all aware of the seriousness of the problem.

"Father! Oh no! ”

Zhao Ying's eldest son, Zhao Bolu, hurriedly entered the big tent and told Zhao Ying: "Wu Jun...... There is also the army of the Handan clan, which surrounds our camp. ”

"What?"

Hearing this, Zhao Ying, Yin Duo, Fu Ben, You Wuxian and others couldn't help but change color.

They all know exactly what that means.

"Hateful!"

Postal Wuxian, who has always been strong-tempered, couldn't help but slam his fist on the table, and said angrily: "Why are Wu Manzi and Handan Ji surrounding my Zhao family's camp?" ”

"Could it be that they dare to risk the condemnation of the world and openly attack the Zhao family?"

Zhao Ying quickly calmed down, looked at Zhao Bolu and asked, "Bolu, why is this happening?" ”

"Father, the child doesn't know what's going on. However, according to Gou Jian, Lang Zhongling of Wu State, they were ordered to protect their father. It is said that someone wants to be bad for his father......"

"Ridiculous!"

Zhao Ying's face sank, and he said, "Qingji is obviously trying to force me to death!" ”

"Not good for me? Hmph, apart from Qingji and Handan Ji, who else can be unfavorable to me! ”

For Qingji's actions, Zhao Ying was very indignant.

However, the situation is stronger than people!

What can Zhao Yingru do?

"Father, why don't we break through and fight with Wu Manzi! Fight a fish and die in the net! ”

Zhao Bolu gritted his teeth with hatred, and said to his father Zhao Ying: "With my Zhao clan's army, I will definitely be able to escort my father to break through and return to Jinyang safely!" ”

"As long as I return to Jinyang, rely on the solidity of Jinyang City, and have the dissatisfaction of the princes with the Wu State, my Zhao clan may not be able to turn defeat into victory and crush Qingji's ambitions!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ying lowered his head, thought for a long time, and finally waved his hand and said, "It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate." ”

"Boru, what you can think of is also what Qingji can think of."

Zhao Ying couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "It seems that Qingji wants me to die." ”

"My Zhao Zhi's father is dead if he goes to the banquet, and if he doesn't go to the banquet, he will die, so what can I do?"

“……”

Everyone present couldn't help but fall silent.

It is the so-called food of the king, and the worry of the king.

Yin Duo, Fu Ben, Yu Wuxian, Shi Di, and Dou Li, all of the Zhao family's retainers, were racking their brains for Zhao Ying at this time, thinking about ways to break the situation.

However, this is ultimately in vain.

If Qingji wants Zhao Ying to die, what can he do?

Do you have to fight with Qingji to break the net?

No, I'm afraid the fish will die, and the net won't break!

With the strength of the Zhao family, how could they compete with the powerful state apparatus of the overlord Wu State?

"That's it!"

A relieved smile appeared on Zhao Ying's face, patted his thigh, and said, "Since Qingji wants my life, if the Zhao family can be saved, why is my Zhao Zhifu afraid of death?" ”

"Father!"

"Lord!"

Yin Duo, Fu Ben, Yu Wuxian and other retainers, as well as Zhao Bolu, couldn't help but scream, looking at Zhao Ying with tears in their eyes.

Could it be that Zhao Ying is going to give up resistance and wait to be killed?

"Yes."

Zhao Ying's words changed, and he said with a cold face: "Until the last moment, I will never give up." ”

"Shi Dark."

"The minister is here!"

Shi Dian hurriedly stood up.

"You went to Linzi on my behalf, met with the Marquis of Qi, and persuaded the Marquis of Qi to send troops to attack Wu. Tell him that as soon as the Jin State falls and the six families are divided into Jin, the next target of the Wu State will be the Qi State......"

Zhao Ying said in a deep voice: "At this time, the princes are all dissatisfied with the hegemony of the Wu State, the main force of the Wu State is in the Central Plains, the capital of the Wu State, Jinling, and its eastern vassal states, and the defense is empty, which is an opportunity for the Qi army to take advantage of!" ”

"I, the Zhao family, together with Han, Wei, Zhi, Fan, and Bank of China, the six families are united in the same spirit, so that the main army of Wu is trapped in the Central Plains, and I can't return to the country to help."

"Take advantage of this opportunity, the State of Qi should be the army of the country, go south to destroy Wu, or you can smash the capital of Wu Jinling in a battle, and force the State of Wu to be defeated!"

"No!"

Shi Di immediately agreed.

Hearing this, Zhao Bolu was very confused and said, "Father, Qi Hou...... Is it really possible to send troops to attack Wu? ”

"It's profitable, Qi Hou should do it."

Zhao Ying said meaningfully: "Jinling is the capital of Wu State, the place of the world's baggage, and all the belongings of Wu State are gathered in Jinling. ”

"Qingji reigned for nearly 20 years, swept away Yue, Chu, Han and other countries, and obtained its treasury, and Wu Zixu waved his army into Xinzheng in the past, emptying the treasury of Zheng State......"

Therefore, Jinling is a place of great baggage in the world, and there are countless rare treasures. How could Qi Hou not be tempted? ”

"Furthermore, the emptiness of Wu's internal defense is a fact. How could Qi Hou not know? ”

Zhao Bolu bowed his head slightly and agreed.

Will the Qi people really wave their troops to defeat Wu?

Actually, Zhao Ying wasn't sure, he was just gambling.

Take the rise and fall of the Zhao family and take a big gamble!

If he wins, the Zhao clan, which is dominated by Zhao Ying, will be able to successfully rank among the princes, and may lead the Six Jin Dynasty to begin to rise.

If he loses, Zhao Ying will be wiped out, and everyone will be lost.

In this matter, Zhao Ying did not lie.

At this time, the internal defense of Wu was relatively weak.

It's just that Jinling is a rich place, how can Qi Hou not be greedy?

Moreover, the momentum of Wu replacing Jin and becoming the hegemon of the world has become unstoppable.

If the Marquis of Qi had the ambition to become the overlord, he would inevitably go south to attack Wu, and take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Wu army was still in the Central Plains and Qingji was still in the Central Plains, and smashed the Wu capital in one fell swoop......

If the Qi army succeeds.

Wu's hegemony will inevitably decline.

Of course, after this, the state of Wu and the state of Qi formed a grudge and never died!

Zhao Ying believes that Qi Hou's thoughts should be the same as his own, and it is worth taking this risk!

After all, Qi Hou is already dying of old age, and he may not live for a few years.

Qi Hou is also a self-serving, ambitious and talented person, and there is no honest courtier around him to advise, so it is inevitable that he will make mistakes......

"Shi Dark."

Zhao Ying came to Shi Di's face with a sad look again, held his shoulder, and said: "Now the Qing clan in power in Qi State is the Tian clan, the Gao clan, and the Guo clan, after you arrive in Linzi, you can personally lobby them and bribe them with heavy gifts." ”

"Tell the Marquis of Qi again that on the day of the success of the Qi State's attack on Wu, the Zhao State of Zhao is willing to pay tribute to the State of Qi, and is willing to cede the three cities of Linyi, Mashou and Yangcheng to the State of Qi."

"In addition, let Qi Hou know that the Zhao family and Wu Manzi will not be at odds!"

"I will also immediately write a handwritten letter and go to Jinyang, so that they can send all their assets to Linzi and hand them over to you."
