All he said was the truth, Zhao did not have so much cash and grain in the treasury, because most of the grain was sent to various places, and Handan only had emergency grain and grass left, and all the money was spent.

Zhao Kuo knows very well that money is only money when it is circulated, and it is just a pile of copper in the treasury.

The reward for the Battle of Changping was indeed only issued a few days ago, and Zhao Guo did melt the bronze weapon to mint money, but it was only a damaged weapon, but it was impossible for King Wei to check so accurately, he could only find out that Zhao Guo did it.

The monopoly of salt and iron is the same reason, Zhao Guo did it, and there were also people who resisted, and Zhao Guo also sold salt and iron to merchants, and the merchants resold it.

No matter how Wei investigates, the result is the same.

King Wei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he also thought that Zhao Guo had surpassed Wei in just half a year, it turned out to be all fake, just a superficial phenomenon.

Even the weapons were melted, and it was impossible to do such a thing without being forced to a certain extent.

"It seems that Zhao State cannot pose a threat to Wei State in the short term, and it is still necessary to unite Zhao State against Qin State." King Wei thought in his heart.

As for whether Zhao Kuo deceived himself, King Wei did not doubt it. In addition to how much grain there is in the treasury, it is difficult to inquire, other things can be known as soon as you inquire about them, and there is no point in deceiving.

"This king is willing to give Zhao 100,000 stone grain and grass to solve the difficulties of Zhao State." King Wei arched his hand and said.

"Thank you, King Wei." Zhao Kuo was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that there would be additional gains from complaining.

"Zhao Wei is a country of brothers, and they should help each other." King Wei said magnificently.

Wei Wuji glanced at his brother and sighed deeply.

"Everyone with this king to the king of Wei a cup." Zhao Kuo raised his glass and said.

After the banquet, Zhao Kuo sent the King of Wei out of the palace, did not deal with government affairs, but turned around and walked towards the harem, anyway, the government affairs were handed over, there is no him the same, as a monarch, we must grasp the general direction, not do everything personally, otherwise sooner or later we will be tired to death.

Besides, he is about to get married, and it is time for him to rest.

The ministers are also very conscious, and they try to handle everything by themselves in the past few days, so as not to trouble Zhao Kuo.

An Ning has moved out of the palace and will not see each other until the two get married. An Ning's family also rushed to Handan from Lingshou to Zhang Luo's daughter's wedding.

An Ning's teacher Dai Tuo also came, and after Pang Xuan's introduction, Zhao Kuo learned that Dai Tuo was actually a famous general of Zhao during the period of King Wuling, alongside Ni Liang of Wei and Wang Liao of South Korea.

The three of them are all famous generals in the same era as Sima Coo of the Qin State, but they are not super-ordinary powerhouses, and now at the age of eighty or ninety, they are no longer able to lead troops to fight, so Zhao Kuo can only give him an idle position and let him stay in Handan Academy to teach.

News came from Qi State, Wang Nu is also on the way, and it will arrive in the next two days, Zhao Sheng and Zhao Mu personally went to Qi State to pick up their relatives.

"Father." As soon as Zhao Kuo returned to the palace, Bin ran over with Xiao Zhao Zheng in his arms and threw himself into Zhao Kuo's arms.

When An Zong returned to Handan, he brought Bin with him, the little guy was very timid at first, and he had to follow Zhao Kuo every day, and after getting acquainted, he became naughty and ran around in the palace.

When Yan learned of Bin's situation, he was very distressed and treated him as if he were his own grandson.

Zhao Kuo took Zhao Zheng and put it on his left hand, and then picked up Bin with his right hand.

Xiao Zhao Zheng's big round eyes stared at Zhao Kuo curiously, and his chubby little hands kept waving, wanting to scratch Zhao Kuo.

"You can't run around like this in the future, do you hear, what if you fall?" Zhao Kuoyang said angrily.

"The child won't, even if the child falls by himself, he won't let his brother fall." Bin assured.

"Good brother, responsible." Zhao Kuo said with a smile.

"A child must not only protect his brother, but also his father." Bin tilted his face and said loudly.

"If you want to protect your father, you have to study hard, you know, how many words did you learn today?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"Father, the child learned a word today." Bin raised his right hand and raised an index finger and said loudly.

"Which word?"

"Bin!"

"Yes, I can write my name." Zhao Kuo said with a smile.

Bin was praised and immediately smiled.

"The King." Zhao Ji walked over, leaned over and saluted, inadvertently revealing a touch of snow white.

Zhao Ji is well recuperated, her face is ruddy, her figure is much plumper compared to before, and her rough hands have become as white and tender as green onions. Dressed in a vermilion dress, with a slender waist, fat where it should be fat, thin where it should be thin, the whole person is like a delicate peony, every move, every smile has endless temptation.

"Damn, she really deserves to be a woman who can't be controlled by Lu Buwei and Yiren." Zhao Kuo thought to himself and said, "You are really, you dare to hand over the child to such a small doll." ”

"Although Gongzibin is young, he still cares for his younger brother." Zhao Ji walked up to Zhao Kuo, I don't know whether he touched Zhao Kuo lightly with a certain part intentionally or unintentionally, and whispered: "The king is tired, let's hug the concubine." ”

"It's fine." Zhao Kuo put Xiao Zhao Zheng into Zhao Ji's arms.

The two were very close, and Zhao Kuo could see Zhao Ji's tall chest when he looked down, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

"The concubine has just got some good tea, I wonder if the king is interested in tasting it?" Zhao Ji said softly, and the soft voice accompanied by the surging fragrance entered Zhao Kuo's ears and nose.

Zhao Kuoming knew that Zhao Guo couldn't have a better tea than himself, but he couldn't say anything to refuse.

"Okay." Zhao Kuo nodded subconsciously.

"Come with me, my lord." Zhao Ji smiled charmingly at Zhao Kuo, twisted her dress, and walked towards the attic.

Early the next morning, a guard suddenly came to the outside of the attic: "King, Qin envoy Lu Buwei asks to see you." ”

Zhao Ji's face was a little panicked, and she grabbed Zhao Kuo's arm tightly with both hands.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Zhao Kuo kissed Zhao Ji lightly on the forehead and said softly.

He received the news the moment Lü Buwei entered Handan, and he was not surprised by Lü Buwei's request to see him.

Since Qin Guo sent someone over, he would definitely find a way to take Zhao Ji's mother and son back.

If Zhao Zheng is just an ordinary descendant of the Qin family, Zhao Kuo doesn't care, if he gives it to the Qin State, it will give it to the Qin State, and it will not have any impact on the Zhao State anyway.

But Zhao Zheng is the first emperor who unified the six countries in history, how could Zhao Kuo give it to Qin. Doesn't that make you feel uncomfortable?

"Hmm." Zhao Ji nodded.

"Tell the Qin envoy that this king will come soon." Zhao Kuo said outside the door.

After Lü Buwei settled the crown prince, he sent someone to inquire about the news of the famous doctor, and at the same time he personally went to find Zhao Ji, and after many inquiries, he finally heard the news that Zhao Ji was admitted to the palace by Zhao Kuo, so he immediately entered the palace to ask to see Zhao Kuo.

"Foreign Minister Lü Buwei has seen King Zhao." Lü Buwei bowed.

"I don't know what the Qin envoy is looking for this king?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"In the past, my Qin king Sun Yiren was a hostage in Zhao State, and he had a concubine Zhao Ji, because when he returned to Qin, Zhao Ji was already pregnant with Liujia and could not run, so he stayed in Handan for the time being, and returned to Qin in the future. The minister just got the news that Zhao Ji's mother and son seem to have been admitted to the palace by King Zhao, I don't know if there is such a thing? Lü Buwei asked.

"Not bad." Zhao Kuo nodded and did not deny it.

"Thank you King Zhao for taking care of you, and ask King Zhao to hand over Zhao Ji's mother and son to the ministers, so that the ministers can take them back to China." Lu Buwei said.

"This king did bring their mother and son into the palace, but not to take care of them for the stranger." Zhao Kuo said calmly.

"What does King Zhao mean?" Lu Buwei said coldly.

"Go back and tell the stranger: Your wife, I will raise her."
