Wei Wuji hurriedly picked up the letter on the table, glanced at it quickly, and then handed it to Zhao Sheng.

"Wang, this matter is not to blame Liu Ping, with the environment before my Zhao Kingdom, there is no way to deal with it, even now, it is a little tricky." Wei Wuji arched his hand and said.

This is no longer a matter of one country, but of four countries, and unless the strength of one country can overwhelm the other three and deal with it as a hegemon, it will be difficult to have a result, because all sovereign countries will not allow other countries to arrest people at will within their own borders, even if they are criminals.

Although the Zhao State is strong now, it is still a little short if it wants to subdue the Wei State and the Qi State.

"Although Liu Ping's move is inappropriate, his original intention is not wrong." After Zhao Sheng finished reading it, he also opened his mouth to persuade.

It's not that they are ruthless and don't take those women to heart, but that's how they are in this era. To put it mildly, for the nobles, these commoners are no different from leeks in the field, and if they die, they will die, and there will be another stubble anyway.

Of course, it is undeniable that since ancient times, there have been people who have asked for their lives for the people, but this kind is a minority after all.

Most people always stand in their own class.

If Zhao Kuo is not from later generations, with the values of later generations, there will not be much difference from them.

"Cut the knight to the third level, fine for one year, and wait for yourself to receive the punishment." After a long time, Zhao Kuo said slowly.

He was not persuaded by Wei Wuji and Zhao Sheng, but because this matter had existed for an unknown amount of time, it was impossible for Liu Ping to get involved, otherwise even if Wei Wuji interceded with Zhao Sheng, the punishment would definitely be more than that.

Although this punishment is already very heavy in the eyes of others.

After all, Liu Ping has only been a sixth-level knighthood until now, and now he has suddenly fallen to a third-level title, not even a doctor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Ping leaned over and bowed.

"Everybody talk about how to deal with this." Zhao Kuo said.

"I thought I should send someone to arrest the criminals immediately." Zhao Sheng said with his fists clenched.

"What if the criminals fled to other countries?" Kong Bin asked.

"My Zhao State can only manage the affairs of my Zhao Kingdom, and cannot manage the affairs of other countries, since I have fled to other countries, it will naturally be handed over to other countries to be responsible." Zhao Sheng said as a matter of course.

"What is the difference between doing this and those mediocre officials in the past? Or do you Zhao Sheng don't care about the lives of those women at all? Kong Bin asked in a deep voice.

If you do what Zhao Sheng said, you can only catch some criminals who can't escape in the end, and the real mastermind must have fled to other countries, and may even have escaped now.

At that time, Zhao Guo can use the least effort to gain the greatest popular support, because Zhao Guo will not let the people at the bottom know that most of the traffickers are still at large, and Zhao Guo will only let them know how many traffickers the court has arrested, how much merit has been made, and how many people have been rescued.

As for the women who died in the bullying, the women who are still being bullied, no one cares, and it is impossible not to expect the high nobles to be able to empathize with the mud legs who are digging in the soil.

If the knife is not cut on one's body, it will never feel pain, as long as the abducted and trafficked are not the children of the nobles, the nobles will always think about the overall situation. ’

But Kong Bin will never agree to this, although the Kong family is a family heirloom, but not wealthy, Kong Bin has tasted the suffering of the world since he was a child, and has a deep understanding and sympathy for the people at the bottom.

In addition, the Confucian 'benevolence' is definitely not only for the aristocracy, but an equal benevolence that can tolerate all people.

Just like Confucius said at the beginning, Hu Bu said, 'If a person leaves a bow, a person gets it'? Why bother?

"But...... After all, it is the defenders who are abducted and trafficked. Zhao Sheng sighed, he didn't know that this method was just making peace with the mud, but he was a member of the Zhao clan, and he had to consider the reputation of the Zhao State.

If this matter is revealed, the Zhao State, and even the monarchs of the Wei, Qi, and Wei Kingdoms, will be condemned, and this matter may even be recorded in the history books.

Of course, the most severely scolded must be Wei Jun, who made him, as the king of a country, unable to shelter his own people!

"Guards aren't human?" Kong Bin reluctantly walked in front of Zhao Sheng, his face was pale, his robe was held high under the encouragement of his inner qi, and he had the intention of doing it if he didn't agree.

"Wei people are people, but not Zhao people." Zhao Sheng smiled bitterly, "I, Zhao State, have the obligation to protect the people, but I have no obligation to protect the people. Those human traffickers are hateful, but why can't they be hated? If it weren't for the fact that the defense of the country was too weak and the inaction of the defense government, how could human traffickers be rampant to such an extent? ”

】

"Since you know that traffickers are hateful, then they should be punished accordingly. In addition, you Zhao Sheng dare to guarantee that none of the people who are abducted and trafficked are Zhao people? Kong Bin asked in a deep voice.

"Don't dare. Therefore, I, Zhao Guo, cannot do nothing. Zhao Sheng shook his head.

"The king, the minister suggested that an envoy be sent to the three kingdoms of Qi and Wei immediately to explain the situation, and then with my Zhao State as the main body, supplemented by the three kingdoms, send envoys from the four countries to jointly supervise this matter, and be sure to arrest all the criminals." Kong Bin no longer argued with Zhao Sheng, but looked at Zhao Kuo.

He understands that even if he and Zhao Sheng keep arguing, there will be no result, because the positions of the two sides are different.

And the person who really made the decision was Zhao Kuo.

"It's too slow, it will take at least ten days for the messenger to come and go, and the fast ones will already receive the news and escape." Zhao Kuo shook his head, walked up to Wei Wuji and bowed, "The widow wants to ask Xinlingjun to personally envoy Wei, and then ask Du Pingjun to envoy Qi to persuade the Empress Dowager Qi." ”

Zhao Kuo knows very well that the biggest obstacle to this matter has never been the human traffickers, but the four countries.

On the one hand, for the sake of face, Shikoku is reluctant to reveal the matter, and as for the death of the people, no one cares, for them, the common people are just consumables.

On the other hand, it is indeed difficult for the four countries to truly unite, especially when they are close in strength, and none of them is willing to take a step back.

And this kind of skin only needs to be pulled for a few days, the heat has passed, and it will naturally fall away with the mud.

Therefore, Zhao Kuo decided to send Wei Wuji as an envoy to Wei to persuade his brother King Wei to let Tian Dan, who had the highest prestige in Qi State, send an envoy to Qi State.

Forcing both countries to make a quick decision.

As for the defense of the country, there is not much choice, just send someone to inform you at will.

"Whoa." Wei Wuji did not refuse.

By this time, everyone understood Zhao Kuo's attitude.

"Gai Nie, it's up to you to defend the country, I'll write a letter, and you bring it to Weijun." Zhao Kuo called Gai Nie over and commanded.

"No." Gagne said loudly.

"Ben, you go to Wuyang immediately, hand over this letter to Tian Dan, and let Tian Dan go directly to Qi State." Zhao Kuo quickly wrote a letter, dried it and handed it to Ben.

During this time, Tiandan has been building granaries, and each place is personally selected by him and supervised the construction. The granary is related to the overall situation of Zhao State, and there is no room for mistakes.

"No." Ben took the letter and strode out of the hall.
