The soldiers of the Zhao army were homesick and did not stay in Hedong for a long time, and after the wounded soldiers had almost recovered, Zhao Kuo set up his troops and returned to Handan.

Seeing Zhao Jun leaving, Wei breathed a sigh of relief, although the two countries were allies, but the other party's hundreds of thousands of troops were placed next to him, and he was still inevitably worried.

If Zhao directly turns his face, the Wei army has no ability to resist, and Wei will lose at least the two counties of Hedong and Hanoi, and even the entire Wei State will be in danger of overturning.

But fortunately, Zhao Guo did not do this.

The King of Wei led the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to personally send Zhao Kuo to the long pavilion ten miles away, and before leaving, he bowed to Zhao Kuo and said sincerely: "After King Zhao goes back, he must tell the widow's middle brother that when he is fine, he will go back to Wei to see the widow." ”

King Wei's eyes were a little red, and there were some sentences on his back, when he said this, King Wei was not King Wei, just a brother who missed his younger brother.

"King Wei, rest assured, this king will definitely bring your words to Xinling Jun." Zhao Kuo assured, and there was a wave of scorn in his heart: If you can keep it like this, it is impossible for Xinlingjun to be forced to stay in Zhao State.

"King Wei is really contradictory." After the army set off, Xunzi shook his head and sighed.

"How?" Lu Zhonglian asked.

"Wei Gongzi is by his side, worried about threatening his position. Wei Gongzi is not around, but he misses it. I like talents, corporal Lixian, but I don't cherish talents. At that time, he was bound with gold and hired Kong Bin as the prime minister. After Kong Bin arrived, he personally went to the suburbs to greet him. It's like the wind of a bright king. However, he did not adopt any of Kong Bin's opinions, and Kong Bin resigned after nine months as the prime minister of Wei. ”

"Whether it was the king who led the troops to attack Qin, or General Lecheng who helped Wei train cavalry, the king of Wei gave enough respect, and even directly gave General Lecheng a fief. Such a monarch, but for the sake of a few cities, promised Zhao to execute a national important minister like Fan Zuo, and cut off his arm, as if he was a faint monarch. ”

"This kind of thing is concentrated in one person, so I said that King Wei is contradictory." Xunzi said.

When everyone has a lake, many Ming monarchs have all kinds of strange things after they get old, and they are more faint than faint monarchs, but King Wei obviously did not reach this age, and he started many years ago, and he was still very young at that time.

Qi Guo sold Tian Dan to Zhao Guo, Xun Zi can barely understand this matter, after all, Tian Dan is really a master of high merit, and he is a clan, and it is normal for King Qi to worry.

But Fan Zuo has no merit to cover the master, and he is not a clan, and the King of Wei is going to kill Fan Zuo because of the exchange of a hundred miles of land from Zhao State, Xunzi really can't understand it.

That is, he was not killed, and was saved by Xinling Jun, otherwise there would be no scholars in the world in the future.

"When ability is not worthy of ambition, he will be like King Wei, sometimes full of ambition and wisdom. But this state can't last long, and he will be defeated by the bad reality, and because his vulnerable ability can't change all this, he can only choose to give up. Then after a while, I regained my confidence, was full of ambition, and vowed to start changing. After a while, give up again, and so on. ”

"If King Wei's ability can change the situation of Wei, he won't worry about Wei Wuji threatening him. At that time, he will be a good brother that everyone envies, and in the same way, he will not do anything to sell his minister for the sake of a few cities. Since he was a child, the Wei state has been constantly weakened, constantly losing land, and he is too obsessed with expanding his territory. But then again, if this is the case, it will be impossible for Wei Wuji to go to the Zhao Kingdom. At the end, Zhao Kuo had a smile on his face.

Wei Wuji is too capable, military, governing the country, hundreds of schools, strategy and politics are all-encompassing, and Zhao Kuo did not make any mistakes after handing over Zhao Guo to him.

Zhao Guo can also be regarded as a lot of talents, but he can't find one more powerful than Wei Wuji. Now that Wei Wuji is still in the prime of life, and he has been reused in the Zhao State, he will definitely not end up depressed like in history, and it will be no problem to shine for a few more decades.

The only pity is that Wei Wuji is the son of Wei after all, and his heart is still in Wei.

"Ability is not worth ambition." Xunzi chanted twice, and suddenly found that this sentence was very suitable to describe most faint monarchs and mediocre monarchs.

Few monarchs want to be faint kings, especially in troubled times, who do not want to govern the country extremely strong and accept the reverence of the people of the whole country and even future generations.

But the vast majority of people do not have this ability, and when they find that they can't change anything, they will give up completely and choose to lie down.

Being a bright monarch is far more difficult than being a faint monarch.

"King Wei is also a poor man." Han Fei sighed.

"Who is not a pitiful person in troubled times?" Xunzi said.

"That's what the gentleman said." Han Fei was stunned for a moment and said bitterly.

King Wei is a pitiful person, how can Wei Wuji and him, the two guys who can only leave the motherland, not poor people?

"That's fine, at least there is no threat to my Zhao Kingdom." Huang Shigong said with a smile.

For example, today, the greatest threat to Zhao is Qin and Chu, and the other four countries are not strong, and the monarchs are average.

Only the Qin and Chu states were strong and their monarchs were wise. Qin Wangji doesn't need to say much, as for Chu Wangwan, except for being a little courageless in the face of Qin, he behaved very well in other aspects, and he was quite wise.

"After I go back this time, I, Zhao Guo, am going to start some things." Gongsun Long looked at Zhao Kuo.

"It's time to start, but this matter is not urgent, and everyone needs to improve it together, and there can be no mistakes." Zhao Kuo looked at the mountains in the distance, his face calm.

"This time should be the last big turmoil in my Zhao country, and the rest of the country is to develop with peace of mind." Xunzi said with a smile.

"Not bad." Zhao Kuo nodded.

Zhao Jun traveled all the way east, and stopped for a few days when he passed by Shangdang.

General Feng Ting has governed the party very well, although it has not reached the level of leaving no stone unturned, but Zhao Kuo has not seen civilians with dishes on their faces, which shows that everyone can still eat enough, which is very good.

Zhao Kuo did not suspect that Feng Ting specially found some civilians from relatively wealthy families to come to the lake to make himself.

On the one hand, the scholars of the Warring States period disdained this, and if they felt that they were not capable enough, or that the monarch was not good enough to realize their ambitions, they would take the initiative to resign.

On the other hand, there are patches of corn and rice fields along the way, and as long as it does not rain heavily during the autumn harvest, there is no doubt that this year's harvest will be bumper.

It's just that the population of Shangdang is a bit small, which seriously restricts the development of Shangdang.

Shangdang is located in the Taihang Mountains, most of them are in the mountains, the population is not very large, most of the people in the Battle of Changping moved into the Zhao State, although later they moved back to a part but far less than before.

Because of the early development, Shangdang's agriculture is not bad, but there is still a big gap compared with the Central Plains, but the strategic position of Shangdang is very important, guarding the gate on the west side of Zhao State.

If there is not enough population to support it, it will be difficult to form a perfect defense, and half of the 40,000 households of the Wei State will be filled in the Shangdang this time.
