"Shi Di, the future of the Zhao family, please!"

"Minister, you must live up to your mission!"

Shi Dian couldn't help but burst into tears, knelt down towards Zhao Ying, kowtowed, and said, "Lord, if the minister can't succeed this time, he will die in Linzi!" ”

"Shi Dark!"

"Lord!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Ying and Shi Dian couldn't help but hug their heads and cry, and gave each other a hug.

A gloomy and miserable aura permeated the hearts of every Zhao monarch and minister.

Everyone knows what this means to Zhao.

To resist is to die, and not to resist is to die.

How can the Zhao family, who was driven to a dead end, not rise up to resist?

However, with the strength of the Zhao family, it is difficult to support it alone after all.

Zhao Ying and Shi Dian have known each other for more than 20 years, and between the monarch and the minister, the relationship is very strong, as if they are good teachers and friends.

At the critical juncture of the Zhao family's survival, how could Shi Dian not ask for help from the Qi State for the survival of the Zhao family, just like Shen Baoxu in the past, crying for Qin Ting?

Of course, it is not to ask for reinforcements and let the Qi State send troops to fight against the Wu army, but to let the Qi army go south to attack Wu, if the first battle is successful, things are promising.

Even if the state of Wu does not perish, it will be greatly damaged and will fall to the altar from then on......

Hard!

With Wu's current strong national strength and Qingji's majestic strategy, even if Jinling City falls, Wu can still move the capital to take refuge and ensure that his hegemony is not lost.

"Dou Li."

"The minister is here!"

After Zhao Ying pondered for a moment, he said, "You are responsible for sending an envoy to Han Buxin and Wei Hao on my behalf." Han, Zhao, and Wei have been friends for generations, and they are in the same spirit, Han does not believe in Wei luxury, how can they forget each other? ”

"If war breaks out, please be sure to stand on the side of the Zhao family, even if it is to remain neutral."

"No!"

Dou Li immediately agreed.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Ying set his eyes on his eldest son, Zhao Bolu, and sighed: "Bolu, you are my eldest son, the son of the Zhao family. ”

"It's a big responsibility. Now, I want to buy time for Dou Li and Shi Yan, this trip, I have to go for my father. ”

"Father!"

Zhao Bolu couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, and knelt down towards Zhao Ying: "Father! You are the backbone of my Zhao family, if there is no you, how can the child gain a foothold, how can he shoulder the responsibility? ”

"Please ask the father to allow the child to go to the banquet for the father, whether it is killing or scraping, the child will never complain!"

"The child is willing to die for his father!"

Seeing this, Zhao Ying couldn't help but sigh, patted Zhao Bolu's shoulder, and said, "Idiot! ”

"Let you go to the feast, my father will only die faster! Qingji can execute me at any time under the pretext that my Zhao Zhi's father has no respect for his elders. Why are you doing this? ”

Looking at Zhao Bolu with a simple face in front of him and willing to sacrifice for himself, Zhao Ying's heart was also very moved.

Seriously, in Zhao Ying's opinion, Zhao Bolu is not a qualified heir.

Zhao Bolu's personality is honest, although he is capable, he is not enough to take on the big responsibility.

Especially in this chaotic situation, Zhao Bolu couldn't pick up the head of the Zhao family at all.

Zhao Bolu can only be a master of success, more than enough, and not enough progress.

"I wonder what my father is planning?"

Zhao Bolu asked suspiciously.

"I'm going to call sick."

Zhao Ying said vigorously: "Now, the Wu army and the army of the Handan clan have surrounded the camp where I am, and they are not allowed to enter but not leave. For today's plan, only if I take care of my illness, can I let Dou Li and Shi Dian go out and buy enough time. ”

"This ...... Why did my father go to the feast? ”

Zhao Bolu hasn't reacted yet.

Zhao Ying just smiled bitterly and said: "What Qingji and Handan Ji want is the life of my Zhao Zhifu, what do you have to do with others?" As long as I'm still in Chengzhou, they don't dare to move. ”

"Still, I'm going to have to do everything I can to get out......"

Saying that, Zhao Ying discussed with his retainers how to "get out of the shell of the golden cicada", so that he could escape unharmed and return to Jinyang.

……

Night falls.

At this time, in the Xingyuan of King Wu and Qingji's study house in Chengzhou City, Qingji, who had nothing to do, was still playing chess and chess with his national lieutenant Sun Wu.

Qingji knows his chess skills, and his Go skills are not very exquisite, at least against Sun Wu, Fan Li and others.

However, I can't stand Qingji's chess skills.

Qingji would occasionally play chess with his humeral ministers as a pastime as a form of entertainment.

"The King."

As Lang Zhongling's Gou Jian, he slowly entered the book house and bowed to Qingji.

"What?"

"King, not long ago, Zhao Bolu, the son of the Zhao family, came over and said that Zhao Ying suddenly contracted a cold and couldn't afford to be sick."

"Suddenly feeling cold?"

After Qingji ate one of Sun Wu's "cannons", he was stunned for a moment, and then frowned and said: "This is so good, why did Zhao Ying get sick at this time?" It's just a pretext. ”

"Is there anything abnormal over there in the Zhao camp?"

"Returning to the king, there is nothing abnormal. But ......"

Gou Jian looked embarrassed and said, "Several retainers of the Zhao family planned to seek medical advice for Zhao Ying, but they were stopped by the ministers. It's just that Zhao Guo's middle doctor Bule seems to have been bribed by the Zhao family and opened the door for them. ”

“……”

Qingji's order to Gou Jian was to lead the army to surround Zhao's camp, and he was allowed to enter but not to leave.

It is to prevent such incidents from happening.

I didn't think about it, but something went wrong!

However, Gou Jian is not to blame.

Because this time it was Wu Jun who acted with Zhao Jun.

"Who's out?"

"It is said that there are several people. This black light is blinding, but according to Bu Le, the Zhao family's retainers Dou Li and Shi Dian are all inside......"

Gou Jian replied.

"Send someone to keep an eye on them. If they find any signs of misdeeds or signs of escape, they will be arrested immediately, whether they live or die! ”

"No!"

Gou Jian immediately received the order to retreat.

Sun Wu, who was sitting opposite and playing chess with Qingji, couldn't help but smile slightly and asked, "The king is worried that Zhao Ying has a way to break the game?" ”

"This person has been immersed in the sea for many years, is scheming, and has the courage of a strong man to break his wrist, so he can't be careless and cautious."

Qingji shook his head and said, "Changqing, if you are Zhao Zhi's father, is there a way to break the situation?" Or rather, how should you do it? ”

“……”

Sun Wu lowered his head, thought for a long time, and finally said thoughtfully: "King, if the minister is Zhao Zhi's father, he will not be killed. ”

"If the Zhao family rises up to resist, where is the foreign aid? It is nothing more than the State of Qi, the State of Zhao, the State of Wei, and even the State of Zhi. ”

Hearing this, Qingji chuckled and said, "Do they have the courage to challenge the hegemony of my Wu State?" ”

Qingji's words are really quite self-serving.

When people are proud, they will inevitably flutter.

For example, during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao, who unified Hebei, drifted away, and there was the defeat of Guandu.

Cao Cao, who unified the north, floated away, and there was the defeat of Chibi.

Liu Bei, who established Shu Han and occupied Jingzhou and Yizhou, drifted away, and there was a defeat of Yiling.

Divided Jiangdong, Sun Quan, who won a great victory over Shu Han, floated away, and there was a defeat in Hefei......
