Along the way, every time Yingzheng passed through a city in Zhao State, he would send a document of the Zhao State, so the news of King Qin's visit to Zhao State had already been transmitted back to Handan.

King Zhao was outside the West City Gate, and set up a posture to welcome Ying Zheng, and also to welcome his beloved daughter back to her parents' home.

The road was unusually smooth, and there was not even a pebble.

The entire 100,000 troops were arrayed on both sides of the official road, Jin Ge was dazzling, the iron horse was neighing, and the sharp eyes were even more murderous.

Ying Zheng suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and a sense of oppression in his heart was born in his heart.

Hu Yu's feeling was just the opposite, seeing that the soldiers of Zhao Guo were so mighty, she had an indescribable sense of pride in her heart.

King Zhao led the civil and military ministers to stand proudly on the high platform outside the West City Gate, looking at Yingzheng's car.

Finally approaching the high platform, Ying Zheng's car stopped.

King Zhao also led his ministers down the high platform.

Ying Zheng jumped out of the car, and then helped Hu Yu to walk down.

"Father!" When he saw King Zhao's Hu Yu, he shouted loudly and rushed over.

"Hahaha! The widow's feather is back! King Zhao was also very happy.

Father and daughter hugged each other.

However, in an instant, King Zhao held Hu Yu up, looked at Hu Yu's stomach, and said, "Hu Yu, you ......"

Hu Yu said with a smile: "Father, people have ...... It's already there. ”

King Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then said in ecstasy: "Really? Hahaha, the widow is going to be a grandfather again, hahaha......"

Although it is not the first time to be a grandfather, King Zhao's joy is indeed from the bottom of his heart.

Ying Zheng stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Little son-in-law Ying Zheng, please see your father-in-law." ”

Although it is a meeting of the two kings, it is particularly affectionate.

King Zhao seemed to be quite appreciative of Ying Zheng's respect, laughed loudly, and said: "After many years, the virtuous son-in-law is unharmed." ”

Ying Zheng did see King Zhao a few times when he was a child, and at that time, King Zhao in front of him was still the crown prince.

In my impression, the crown prince of Zhao at that time was tall and straight, handsome and mighty, and now the king of Zhao not only has a few more wrinkles on his forehead, but his complexion is also quite decadent.

"It's true that I haven't seen him for many years, and my father-in-law is still the same, not less than he was back then." Ying Zheng said something against his will.

"Hahaha, you have also grown up, and now you are still the King of Qin!" King Zhao said with a smile.

With that, King Zhao glanced to the side.

On the side of King Zhao, there was the crown prince Zhao Qian, and I saw that he was neatly dressed and looked good, but his expression was a little more playful.

"Zhao Qian has seen King Qin." Zhao Qian bowed his hand and said.

Ying Zheng also saluted: "I have heard for a long time that the prince moved to a big name, and when I saw it today, I really looked dignified." ”

At this time, another person stood on the other side of King Zhao, and he saw him Shi Li and said, "Zhao Jia has seen King Qin." ”

"This is the eldest son of the widow." Zhao Wang introduced.

Ying Zheng returned the salute, but his eyes stayed on Zhao Jia's body for a while longer.

This is Zhao Jia, who was deposed as the crown prince?

It doesn't look like a person with any bad deeds.

Then, King Zhao introduced Guo Kai, Li Mu and other military generals in turn.

Then, King Zhao took his son-in-law of King Qin into the palace gate according to the highest standard of etiquette.

In the side hall, there was already a banquet of wine, and the aroma was overflowing.

King Zhao sat in the north and faced south, sitting in the middle position, and Ying Zheng and Hu Yu sat in the second seat.

Although they are all the masters of a country, they must also have a distinction between subject and object, and there are differences in generations.

Singing and dancing are naturally indispensable.

And today's Zhao State, even the song and dance are integrated with the song and dance of the Hu people, which is quite fierce and shows the beauty of bravery.

I don't know if this has anything to do with Hu Yu.

After being polite to each other, King Zhao shifted the topic to political affairs: "The virtuous son-in-law took Hu Yu back to Zhao to visit the widow this time, presumably there is another political matter to discuss, right?" ”

Ask while knowing the answer.

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Yes, the twenty barrels of black fire oil that my father-in-law sent not long ago have been sent to the Qin State, and my son-in-law has come to thank you before. ”

"Hahaha." Zhao

Wang smiled, "It's all a family, so you don't have to be polite." ”

"I don't know ......" Ying Zheng was still smiling, "The gift that the son-in-law gave to his father-in-law, has the father-in-law ever received." ”

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

It was obviously an exchange between the two countries, but the two said that it was a gift that they wanted to give.

"What the virtuous son-in-law said, but a few days ago, the porcelain sent by the envoy named Bai Ping?" Zhao Wang asked nonchalantly.

"Exactly." Ying Zheng replied, "That's the widow who spent a lot of money, hired the best craftsmen in the world, and selected the best blanks, which were made by ancient secret methods, which is unique in the world." ”

Ying Zheng deliberately highlighted his own value and the preciousness of porcelain.

"Oh?" King Zhao suddenly said with a look on his face, "If that's the case, the widow should take a closer look, after the thing was sent to the palace, the widow hasn't seen it much." ”

King Zhao didn't see it much, because after those porcelains were sent to the palace, they were divided by the harem and hidden privately, and it was indeed not easy for him to take a closer look.

Both of them said something unreasonable, but they smiled comfortably.

It seems that this is the difficulty of being an emperor, to be able to act.

"If the father-in-law is not satisfied, the son-in-law will also bring some other gifts this time." Ying Zheng said sincerely.

"Oh? What is it, it is better to present it to the temple? King Zhao's face was calm, but his eyes were radiant.

"Such singing and dancing scenes should not be sacrificed." Ying Zheng said calmly, "It's better to wait until the banquet is over, and then dedicate it to your father-in-law." ”

Ying Zheng sold a pass, but it aroused King Zhao's curiosity, but of course King Zhao was embarrassed to ask more.

"In that case, the widow will wait and see." King Zhao said, "Come, drink." ”

Ying Zheng raised the wine lord and drank with King Zhao.

Li Mu saw Yingzheng's boldness in drinking, and couldn't help but praise, and raised his glass to the King of Qin again.

Ying Zheng also drank it all and said: "I have heard that General Li Mu is brave and strategic, and he is a rare general. ”

"Huh." Li Mu smiled and said slowly, "King Qin has won the award. ”

Sure enough, he is not arrogant or impatient, and he is calm and relaxed.

Guo Kai next to him also raised the wine lord and said: "In the past, it was like yesterday, and now the King of Qin has married a wife and had children, Guo Kai is here to congratulate the King of Qin." ”

"Guo Xiang, please." Ying Zheng also picked up the wine jue, and did it again.

In the afterglow, Ying Zheng noticed Guo Kai's eyes, which were quite meaningful.

Ying Zheng put down the wine, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said leisurely: "It's ridiculous to think about it, I married a wife but was underage, and I didn't do the crown ceremony when I had a child." What's even more sad is that he finally became the king of Qin, but some people say that the widow is not the blood of the surname Ying. ”

Ying Zheng shook his head as he spoke, and finally sighed.

It seems to be self-deprecating, but it is actually difficult.

King Zhao seemed to have expected Ying Zhenghui to mention this matter, and he also had a helpless expression, sighed and said: "I'm ashamed to say that your father and king did live a hard life in the years when he was in Zhao State, and when he married a wife and had children, he didn't do it wantonly, causing people with ulterior motives to spread rumors everywhere, hateful, hateful!" ”

King Zhao deliberately bit the last two words very hard.

"The people of the market are insignificant." Ying Zheng waved his hand very generously and said, "What the widow is interested in is whether an official eunuch of Great Qin has come to Zhao State. ”

King Zhao said suspiciously: "What is the virtuous son-in-law referring to, but Fan Yuzhi? ”

I asked knowingly again.

Ying Zheng stiffened his face: "Exactly." ”

In fact, Ying Zheng is not in a hurry to find Fan Yuzhi, it is purely a temptation.

"He did come to Zhao Kingdom, but the widow coaxed him away directly." King Zhao sighed, "Until now, the widow still regrets his kindness as a woman and did not tie him up and send him back to Qin. ”

Guo Kai helped on the side and said: "At that time, my king didn't want to bear the name of falling into the well, and I hoped that the king of Qin would not blame, so why don't Zhao send troops to arrest Fan Yuzhi immediately?" ”

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Since it is a family matter of Great Qin, I don't bother with the monarchs and ministers of Zhao State, and the widow will solve it." ”

"The virtuous son-in-law is generous, and the widow admires him." King Zhao raised the wine jue again and said, "The widow will give King Qin another glass." ”

Ying Zheng toasted in return

Said: "Uncle Yue, please." ”

The two kings drank it all again.

"Haha, happy." King Zhao said, "The two royal families of Qin and Zhao are of the same ancestry, they are all descendants of the Ying surname Zhao, they should respect and love each other, and now they are tied the knot, and they should be close to each other. ”

Of course, King Zhao knew that Ying Zheng's most urgent thing now was to get back his own royal power, and he would naturally be cost-effective with this nihilistic caliber as a bargaining chip.

"If Uncle Yue can think like this, it will be the blessing of the son-in-law and the blessing of the Great Qin." Ying Zheng looked extremely happy, "The son-in-law respects his father-in-law for a cup." ”

King Zhao raised the wine lord, but he was already a little reluctant.

Zhao Jia, Li Mu and others on Zhao Guo's side saw that Yingzheng began to pay tribute in return, and they all paid tribute to Yingzheng.

As time went by, this political game gradually turned into a drinking competition.

Because of his age, King Zhao was a little overwhelmed by alcohol, so he went back to rest in advance.

Not to be outdone, Li Mu and the others planned to get drunk with King Qin.

However, Li Mu, who claims to have a large number of people, has now met an opponent, and he is still an opponent with one enemy.

For those who practice martial arts, what they are most afraid of is not an opponent who is stronger than themselves, but a confidant at the wine table.

Seeing Yingzheng so much with his own eyes, Li Mu couldn't help but admire from the bottom of his heart.

However, admiration is admiration, and my alcohol consumption is indeed a little insufficient.

Seeing this situation, Ying Zheng knew that it was time to end there, so he burped and said: "The widow really can't drink it, this fight, the widow admits defeat." ”

When the people of Zhao heard this, they were like an amnesty, so they boasted about the amount of wine that King Qin had.

Hu Yu was also afraid that the two sides would lose the competition, so she came out to the round, saying that she and the King of Qin had a tiring journey and needed to rest, so she dismissed the banquet.

Hu Yu's former dormitory has long been cleaned up and has become the temporary dormitory of Yingzheng and Hu Yu.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Hu Yu hugged Ying Zheng and asked.

Ying Zheng said with a smile: "You look at the widow, do you look like there is something?" ”

Hu Yu looked at Yingzheng's wine-red face, and said weakly: "Like ......"

Ying Zheng scratched Hu Yu's nose again and said, "I'll let you see if the widow is okay." ”

Hu Yu: "......"

The next day, it was not until it was close to noon that King Zhao sent a message and asked Hu Yu to take Yingzheng to greet him.

It seems that this King Zhao is really old, but when he was drunk, he slept until three poles in the morning.

Ying Zheng whispered a sentence in his heart, and then followed Hu Yu to King Zhao's bedroom.

"The widow was a little sluggish yesterday, and I hope that the virtuous son-in-law will not be blamed." King Zhao's voice was slightly weak.

Ying Zheng looked at King Zhao's face carefully, and vaguely felt that this was not because he was not strong enough to drink, but he didn't think much about it, and said: "Where is Uncle Yue, Ying Zheng is also too drunk and offensive, please also ask Haihan." ”

The two of them exchanged a few more polite words, and Zhao Wangcai said: "Yesterday, didn't the virtuous son-in-law say that there was a gift to give to the widow, I wonder if I can see it today?" ”

That's what you're waiting for.

Ying Zheng arched his hand and said: "Then I have to bother to let the widow's personal guards bring gifts into the palace for the father-in-law to see." ”

"What's so hard about that?" After that, King Zhao gestured next to him.

Ying Zheng also whispered a few words in the ear of a personal maid, and the maid walked out of the door of the dormitory.

After a while, I saw two strong men dressed in the palace guards of the Qin State enter King Zhao's bedroom, and one of them was carrying a large wooden box.

These two people are the second and third brothers.

The second watch put the wooden box on the ground, then opened it and took out an object from it.

I saw that this object, similar to the shape of a shield, had spear thorns in front, a curved hook underneath, and sharp shield blades on the left and right, and the silver-white color was shining with a dazzling cold light.

"Lord Yue, this is the gift brought by the younger son-in-law," Ying Zheng stood up, walked to the side of the second watchman and said, "This thing is a god-given divine weapon, and the name is 'my weapon'." ”

Hearing this, King Zhao's already somewhat weak body trembled.
