Chapter 331: Top Ten Famous Swords

What Hu Yu said to Zhao Qian is indeed extraordinary, and it may directly affect the future direction of Zhao and the attribution of King Zhao's throne, which makes Zhao Qian unable to re-attach importance to the sister in front of him who married far away to Qin.

"Hehe, how can you not find someone to negotiate." Zhao Qian smiled and said, "Didn't you find me, and I also stood in front of you?" ”

Hu Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, "But I'm not sure if it's useful to talk to you." ”

"I am the only prince of Zhao today, it will naturally work to find me, do you still want to find ......" Zhao Qian was about to say the word "Zhao Jia", but swallowed it back raw.

Who stipulates that Qin Guo can't go to Zhao Jia?

If people didn't mean that, you reminded it, wouldn't it be worth the loss?

Hu Yu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's talk, I've finished what I meant just now, tell me what you think." ”

Zhao Qian said with a straight face: "My idea is that it is not feasible to borrow the Tao, and if you want to recover the lost city, Zhao Jun is not without that ability." ”

Li Mu has already led the men and horses to kill him, this is Zhao Qian's confidence.

"Maybe my father will make that choice." Hu Yu said, "But I think not everyone thinks so, even if you are right. ”

Anyone can see clearly, Zhao Jia is now targeting Zhao Qian everywhere, and he is still worried about the position of the crown prince. Even if he can't be the crown prince, who says he won't use other means to fight for the throne?

The prince of a certain country uses the power of another country to compete for the throne, which has not happened once or twice in history.

And now once Zhao Qian refuses the request of the Qin State, it is very likely that the King of Qin will fall to Zhao Jia's side, and it is really difficult to say who will kill the deer at that time.

Zhao Qian squinted, looked at Hu Yu and asked, "Are you facing our Zhao State, or are you standing on the side of Qin State?" ”

Hu Yu pouted and said: "Of course, I am considering the safety of Zhao State, and speaking from the perspective of Zhao State, if the war continues, it will be the people who will suffer." What's more, even if General Li Mu temporarily repelled the Qin army, what if the Qin State would turn hands to us after the Xiongnu had cleaned up the Xiongnu? ”

"After the Battle of Changping, our vitality has not fully recovered, and when the soldiers hear the word 'Qin Army', they are instinctively afraid, if the Qin State attacks with all its strength at this time, how long do you think we can hold out?"

"And myself? Why was he married to the distant Qin State by his father? Have you considered any of these? ”

"If not, then you really don't deserve to be the king!"

Hu Yu's words are not emotional, nor are they personal prejudices, and they are purely from the perspective of national affairs.

How could Zhao Qian not understand these truths, as the crown prince, how could he not think about it, even if he didn't think about it, then many guests around him also took it into account for him.

Looking at Hu Yu, who married Qin because of a political marriage, he couldn't argue for a while.

If it weren't for their father wanting to use this relationship to tie up with the Qin State, Hu Yu would not have married so far.

At the time of the Cheng Huan mutiny, Zhao Guo rumored about Yingzheng's life experience, and wanted to sneak attack Qin, and Yingzheng is still keeping accounts.

Hu Yu calmed down his emotions for a while, and then said: "The King of Qin said that the conditions for the Qin and Zhao families to reconcile are very simple, that is, the Zhao State will send a large army to encircle the rear of the Xiongnu, so that the Qin army can take advantage of the victory to pursue, so as to give the Xiongnu the most fatal blow." ”

In this way, Zhao used his forces against a common enemy, rather than at the expense of Great Qin. Then the Qin State can not only return the cities that have been captured, but also help the Zhao State stabilize the government, and at the same time deter other countries and no longer intervene. ”

Zhao Qian's eyebrows moved: "Is this true?" ”

If it's really like Hu Yu said, this deal is too cost-effective.

It's a lot of money.

First of all, with the same forces to engage the Qin army, and to fight with the Xiongnu, the proportion of casualties is simply incomparable.

If you just intercept the Xiongnu in the rear, it will be much easier than attacking the fortifications, and even if you can't beat them, you can quickly retreat.

But if he chooses to compete with the Qin army for the city, even Li Mu is not completely sure.

Moreover, as long as the spearhead is turned to the sworn enemy Xiongnu, then he can get back the lost city without effort, not only does not have to lose national strength, but it is also a great achievement for him to succeed to the throne in the future, so Zhao Jia will have no chance.

In the end, as long as he agreed to King Qin's conditions, he would be able to deter several other countries from helping Zhao Jia, and the throne of Zhao would be even stronger.

But if he didn't agree to King Qin, it was obvious that he would go to Zhao Jia to cooperate, let Zhao Jia establish meritorious deeds, and help Zhao Jia ascend to the throne.

Hu Yu pursed his lips and said, "What I said doesn't count, it has to be said by King Qin." ”

With that, she took out a secret letter from her arms and handed it directly to Zhao Qian.

After Zhao Qian opened it, he saw that it was a national letter written by Yingzheng himself, and it was also covered with the seal of King Qin.

The content of what is said in it is basically the same as what Hu Yu said.

Zhao Qian read it carefully twice, then put away the national letter, carefully put it into his arms, and said: "This matter is very important, I have to discuss it with the ministers, and get the approval of my father, so that I can give the King of Qin accurate information." ”

Hu Yu nodded: "Then when you finish the discussion, let's go while my father is sober." ”

"Okay." Zhao Qian agreed, and then said, "Oh, also, don't tell Zhao Jia in advance, I will definitely give you an answer." ”

Hu Yu answered, and then left the study.

When Hu Yu walked away, Zhao Qian called the head of internal affairs over and asked him to invite Guo Kai and other henchmen to come here to discuss matters.

Hu Yu returned to his original dormitory and reminisced with his mother, but he always thought about King Zhao, so he went to King Zhao's bedroom again.

When I came to King Zhao's bed, I seemed to hear him muttering something, and it seemed that he was talking in a dream.

Hu Yufu leaned closer to listen, but heard King Zhao repeatedly say the word "Lian Po".

Hu Yu was taken aback, and listened carefully, but he couldn't hear anything else, and after a while, he couldn't even hear these two words.

Hu Yu panicked and hurriedly went to probe King Zhao's snort, but accidentally touched King Zhao's lips.

Zhao Wang woke up leisurely.

Hu Yu hurriedly accompanied him and said, "Father forgive your sins, the child accidentally woke you up." ”

King Zhao's gaze looked at Hu Yu extremely softly: "Do you think that the widow has already gone?" ”

"The child doesn't dare." Hu Yu lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake.

"Silly boy, it's too late for my father to thank you, how can I blame you." King Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that you are the only one who still cares about the life or death of your father." ”

"Why, everyone cares." Hu Yu's eyes were full of tears and said, "I just heard my father talking in his sleep, and I want to hear it clearly." ”

When King Zhao heard this, he became interested, and asked with some spirit: "The widow is talking in a dream?" What was said? ”

Hu Yu said: "I didn't hear anything else, I just heard my father repeatedly saying the word 'Lian Po'." ”

King Zhao frowned and said, "It turns out that what happened just now is really just a dream. ”

Hu Yu asked curiously: "What my father said about Lian Po, but the once dominant General Lian Po?" ”

King Zhao nodded slightly, sighed and said, "Do you know what caused my father's illness?" ”

"Because of what?" Hu Yu asked.

"It's because of Lian Po." King Zhao said slowly

said, "After Lian Po's death, the widow was annoyed, so he had a heart disease, which intensified. ”

Hu Yu looked at King Zhao's rather remorseful expression, and didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

I only heard King Zhao ask: "Do you want to know the reason for this?" ”

"Yes."

"Hehe, the widow wanted to rot this thing in his stomach and bring it into the coffin." King Zhao laughed at himself and said, "There is not much time left, so I'll tell you." ”

Hu Yu leaned in again and softly held her father's hand, which felt as if she had returned to when she was a child.

King Zhao opened his mouth and said: "Lian Po is the most outstanding general of our Zhao State since the founding of the country, without him, it is unpredictable whether our Zhao State still exists or not." ”

"When the widow was the crown prince, he admired General Lian Po very much, just like you did to Li Mu. Later, when the Battle of Changping broke out, Lian Po fought against the powerful Qin army on his own, but your grandfather listened to the rumors and replaced the commander with Zhao Kuo, alas!! ”

Speaking of this, King Zhao seemed to have touched the sore spot in his heart.

Hu Yu said: "Well, I know, that Zhao Kuo can only talk on paper, and he has lost the lives of more than 400,000 soldiers in vain. ”

King Zhao nodded slightly and said, "After that, the court hated Great Qin very much, and they all suggested that the prince of Qin, who was a proton in us at that time, be executed. ”

"But Lian Po resolutely opposed this, saying that such an act was not done by the eldest husband, and this could only vent his anger for a while, but would lead to more violent retaliation from the Qin State, and the Zhao State would definitely destroy the country."

"The best way is to let Ying Yiren go back and let him persuade King Qin to quit his troops, so as to give our Zhao Kingdom a chance to breathe."

"At that time, your grandfather weighed the pros and cons, adopted Lian Po's opinion, and let Yingyi return to Daqin. But because of this, Lian Po offended almost everyone in the court. ”

Hu Yu sighed secretly in his heart: I couldn't imagine that my husband was actually saved by Lian Po, if it weren't for Lian Po, her father-in-law Yingyiren, mother-in-law Zhao Ji and husband Yingzheng would have lost their lives long ago.

King Zhao continued: "At that time, my father also wanted to be quick for a while, so my impression of Lian Po changed greatly. ”

"Until the widow succeeded to the throne, Lian Po, who had made many military exploits, failed to be promoted to an official position, but Lian Po had no complaints, and the widow finally figured out Lian Po's good intentions."

"Have you ever wondered why your father wanted to abolish Zhao Jia's crown prince and set up Zhao Qian instead?"

Hu Yu blinked his eyes and wondered, "Isn't it because of ......?" ”

Almost everyone knows that King Zhao was renamed Zhao Qian as the crown prince because of Zhao Qian's mother's concubine.

Although he didn't say it, of course King Zhao understood what Hu Yu meant, and he shook his head slowly: "Of course not." At that time, Zhao Jia had a prince named Zhao Yi, who was Zhao Kuo's cousin, and he wanted to get rid of Lian Po, so he united the ministers to frame Lian Po and forced the widow to remove him from all his positions. ”

At that time, the widow had just succeeded to the throne, and he was afraid that the court would be unstable, so he dismissed Lian Po. At that time, he was in his eighties, and it was time for him to retire. ”

However, Zhao Yi refused to give up and wanted to put Lian to death. The widow couldn't bear it, so he secretly sent him to Wei. ”

"In the end, Lian Poke died in a foreign country and never returned to his hometown, and my Zhao State also lost a virtuous minister."

"At that time, the crown prince Zhao Jia, was bewitched by the prince Fu, and in a fit of anger, he abolished his crown prince, set up Zhao Qian, and successively eliminated many people who framed the loyalty, which was exchanged for the stability of the court in the past few years."

Hu Yu was stunned to imagine the scene of that year, the unwilling mood of Lian Po back then, and the helplessness of King Zhao.

It turned out that over the years, almost everyone had misunderstood her father.
