Chapter 225: The Arrival of the State of Chu
"By the way, if you trade with raw materials such as copper and iron, grain, silk cloth, and fur, you can get a ninety-fifty discount." Zhao Kuo said.
Anyway, the money has to be spent when it comes to hand, so it is better to exchange it for some iron ore and grain.
"Okay." King Wei was afraid that Zhao Kuo would regret it, so he immediately nodded in agreement. "But I, the Wei Kingdom, still need to build a road from Daliang to Anyi. We can put it back in time and build it after the roads of the three kingdoms are completed."
The road from Anyi to Daliang was of great importance to the Wei state and was to be built anyway.
"Yes." Zhao Kuo nodded.
King Han didn't speak, South Korea's territory is not like Wei State, after losing the party, it has been connected, although he still wants to build another road from Yangzhai to Xinzheng, but the distance between the two places is not far, it is enough to buy more cement at that time, Zhao Guo can't be so stuck.
After sending King Wei and King Han away, Cai Ze followed and bowed, "The king is not worried about Han and Wei sitting big? They are now led by Zhao Guo in everything, but it doesn't mean that they will be so obedient in the future."
"Sir, are you worried about the old story of the Martial Spirit King?" Zhao Kuo said.
After the death of Marquis Su of Zhao, King Wuling of Zhao had just succeeded to the throne and had not yet had time to ascend the throne, King Hui of Wei immediately united with the four kingdoms of Chu, Qin, Yan and Qi in the name of funeral, sent elite soldiers, and took advantage of the young age of King Wuling of Zhao to plot against Zhao.
If it weren't for King Zhao Wuling's extraordinary talent and extraordinary means, the Zhao Kingdom would have suffered heavy losses even if it was not destroyed.
"No country's monarch would be willing to be inferior, especially Wei, who has been the overlord of the Central Plains for more than a hundred years. Fu Fanzuo, the Taifu of Wei, was almost killed by the King of Wei because of Yu Qing's schemes, and has been idle at home since then. After the King of Wei obtained the two places in Hedong and Hanoi, he began to use the Fan Seat, which was the heart of hegemony. If it weren't for Du Pingjun's defeat of the Han and Wei coalition forces under Yecheng and the awakening of the King of Wei, the Wei State would inevitably go north to compete with our Zhao State." Cai Ze said.
Zhao Kuo stopped, although he didn't know what King Wei thought, he felt that what Cai Ze said was very likely to be right.
"What do you mean, sir?" Zhao Kuo looked at Cai Ze.
"The King of Wei is timid, as long as he reveals to him the strength of my Zhao Kingdom, he will definitely not dare to attack my Zhao Kingdom. Then guide the Wei state to fight for the homeland of Hexi, so that the Qin and Wei countries will fight." Cai Ze said slowly.
"Wei is not an opponent of Qin." Zhao Kuo shook his head.
Wei State now seems to be very majestic, but in fact it lacks good generals, even Jin Contempt is only a quasi-first-class famous general, Qin State does not have to get out of vain, Wang Di can hold down Jin Contempt with weak troops.
Of course, Zhao Kuo didn't know that Jin Wei already had talent, and Mang Mao had also been reactivated, otherwise he would definitely re-evaluate the strength of Wei State.
"Wei plus Korea is enough to compete with Qin, and ...... Isn't there still me Zhao Guo behind it? As long as there is our Zhao State, even if the two countries are defeated, they will be able to stabilize the form." Cai Ze said.
"How do you guide Wei and Qin to fight for Hexi?" Zhao Kuo asked.
"The King of Wei is scheming and unwise, and is easily influenced by others, so the king only needs to invite the King of Wei to the palace when he is about to leave Zhao, and then use the ancestral inheritance to encourage him, and then ...... The King of Wei will surely be happy." Cai Ze said slowly.
The day before the wedding, a scene occurred in Handan that shocked everyone: the king of Chu actually came in person, accompanied by Chun Shenjun. ….
A small wedding, three monarchs in person!
Everyone had to sigh at Zhao Kuo's big face, and the people of Zhao also had a confident smile on their faces!
This is a symbol of the strength of the Zhao State!
This is the first time Zhao Kuo has seen the King of Chu, he is younger than he imagined, about the age of standing, with thick eyebrows and a lazy expression, after seeing Zhao Kuo, he immediately smiled, happy as a fat man of more than 300 catties.
So far, except for King Yan, Zhao Kuo, the monarchs of other countries have seen it.
The king of Chu was dressed in the robe of the phoenix bird king and wore twelve crowns on his head, and walked towards Zhao Kuo.
Although at this time, all countries have been called kings, and the Zhou Dynasty is virtually useless, but the kings of various countries still rarely wear twelve crowns, and only wear them on important occasions such as enthronement and sacrifices.
Only the state of Chu has no generals from beginning to end
The Zhou Dynasty put it in its eyes, as early as hundreds of years ago, he called himself a barbarian, wearing twelve crowns on his head, wearing royal robes, and the king of Zhou on an equal footing.
Chun Shenjun and the King of Chu are parallel, and their bodies are slightly behind the King of Chu, but they are more advanced than others, highlighting the special relationship between the two.
Chun Shenjun is slightly older than the King of Chu, a beautiful man, eight feet long, with a face like a peach blossom, red phoenix eyes, a small sexy beard at the corner of his mouth, and a smile like the King of Chu.
"Finally arrived in Handan, exhausted and widowed along the way, a bunch of waste, can't row a boat, and have to be pulled on the shore." Without waiting for Zhao Kuo to speak, the King of Chu said breathlessly, not at all.
"With the size of the King of Chu, it's good not to sink the boat, and I think others are rowing slowly." Zhao Mu stood at the back of the crowd and whispered.
"Shut up." Zhao Sheng slapped Zhao Mu on the head, "Don't say anything if you're rude."
"Hey, where's my sister?" Zhao Mu looked back and suddenly found that Zhao Tong, who had been following him, was gone.
"I saw Li Mu looking for her just now, there may be something." Zhao Sheng said casually.
"I've seen the King of Chu, I've seen the Chun Shenjun." Zhao Kuo held back a smile and leaned over to salute.
In the past few days, he doesn't know how many times he has given salutes and how many times he has arched his hands, even if he only needs to receive some important guests, and the others are handed over to the minister of Zhao Guo to deal with, he is still tired and has a sore back every day.
"King Zhao is really young and promising." King Chu said with emotion.
Seeing Zhao Kuo, he couldn't help but think that he was still hostage in Qin State at this age, and there was only one Huang Xie by his side, and he had to look at Qin Guo's face in everything, even if his father was seriously ill, he couldn't return to China.
And Zhao Kuo has defeated the state of Qin and established himself as the king of Zhao.
"The King of Chu has won the prize, please." Zhao Kuo stretched out his hand and said.
"By the way, these are the wedding gifts given by the widow to King Zhao." King Chu pointed to the three frames behind him and said.
On the other side, Zhao Bao was taken aback when he took the gift list, he was almost numb after receiving so many gifts, but he was still shocked when he saw the gift from Chu State.
"1,000 catties of gold, nine five-foot ivory, a piece of Jingshan jade, and five pairs of rhino horns......
Zhao Kuo didn't expect the Chu State to send so many valuable gifts, and said, "The King of Chu is polite."
"These are all as they should be, King Zhao got married, and as an ally, isn't it normal to send some gifts to congratulate. It's just ......" Speaking of this, King Chu paused.
"King Chu, please speak." Zhao Kuo said.
"When the king came, the horses that pulled the carts were tired. My Chu country is located in the south, and there are no good horses, can King Zhao give a few horses to the widow?" King Chu said.
"Damn, if you can be a monarch, there is no easy person, it turned out to be for the horse of my Zhao country." Zhao Kuo felt a lot of slander in his heart, but he couldn't refuse at all.
In front of the public, everyone saw that the King of Chu had pulled three carts of gifts, and now he was just asking Zhao Kuo for a few horses.
And the horse of the king of Chu is still tired because of pulling gifts, if Zhao Kuo refuses, what will the world think of him? There will inevitably be cracks in Zhao Chu's relationship.
"Well, if the king of Chu is interested, he can stay in Zhao for a while longer, and then this king will invite the king of Chu to catch wild horses on the northern grasslands." Zhao Kuo said with a smile.
"Haha, just catch the mustang. With the size of a widow, even if he has a few more legs, he can't catch up with a wild horse."
The two of them smiled and walked towards the palace.
