Chapter 529: Envoys from various countries gather in Handan

The intention of Zhao Guo's side is very clear, Wuyang City is both the basis and the purpose of the negotiation, or in other words, the only thing that Zhao Guo can discuss with Yan Guo is only the issue of compensation.

However, in Yan Guo's view, Wuyang City must not be lost.

Of course, at the beginning, the envoy of Yan Guo was still a little trembling, and he didn't dare to have a showdown with Zhao Guoming, but he repeatedly emphasized the importance of Wuyang, which was quite dead-faced.

But. The arrival of the Qin State has fiercely boosted the arrogance of the envoys of the Yan State, and of course, it is also the latest royal order of the King of Yan.

King Yan's meaning is also very clear, ten cities, this is already the limit that Yan Guo can give.

Obviously, among these ten cities, Wuyang is not included, and even the city that goes deepest into the Yan Realm is still far away from Wuyang.

If Zhao Guo wants Wuyang, he is trying to rob Yan Guo's henchmen and make Yan Guo unacceptable.

Then, the ten cities that King Yan wants to cede can only be regarded as hurting the skin of the Yan Kingdom. Because half of these ten cities are just small towns, they are not cities at all.

I'm afraid that there are more than a few cities occupied by Li Mu now, do you want Zhao's army to withdraw from the cities that have been occupied? How could it be! This is obviously not something that Zhao Guo can accept.

It is impossible to negotiate no matter who is changed, let alone agree, even if it is reported to King Zhao. Today's King Zhao is Zhao Kuo, a real military man, who dares to report such conditions, is simply joking about his political future.

As a result, under the huge differences, the negotiations between the two sides naturally reached an impasse.

In the face of the deadlock in the negotiations, Zhao Kuo was not in a hurry, and he didn't even want the envoys of the Yan Kingdom, and he had no intention of going on a pilgrimage to meet him, the new king.

The reason is very simple, Zhao Kuo is not in a hurry at all, not only because it is useless to be in a hurry, but more importantly, he is waiting, waiting for a good news from the north, a news that is enough to make the envoys of Yan and Qin helpless.

What's more, Zhao Kuo is busy moving......

That's right, moving, from the mansion of the horse service king, to the huge Longtai Palace.

Fortunately, Zhao Kuo's family members are also simple, except for himself, he is just an old mother.

Faced with the fact that her son suddenly became the king, Zhao's mother was naturally shocked, obviously a few months ago she was still worried about her son's survival on the battlefield. In the blink of an eye, his son not only knocked down the invincible Qin State, but also became the ruler of Zhao State.

It's just that it's different from the surprises of others. After Zhao's mother was shocked, she was more worried.

The court of Zhao State, as well as the attack of Qin State and the attack of the Yan army, Zhao's mother saw everything in her eyes. Zhao Wangdan's death made her know that this King Zhao is not so easy to do.

It's just that the wood is already in the boat, even if you worry about it. Instead of distracting his son, it is better to accept the arrangement of fate generously, just like sending Zhao Kuo to the Changping battlefield back then.

The only thing he can do is to let his son not have to worry about family affairs.

Yes! Family affairs. Mother Zhao suddenly remembered that his son, the current King Zhao, has no queen.

Of course, Zhao Kuo's new ascension to the throne and his foothold is not stable, so naturally he can't immediately look for the queen's choice, but Zhao Kuo can't, it doesn't mean that her old man can't! It is only natural for a mother to choose a daughter-in-law for her son!

At the moment, after moving into Longtai Palace, the first thing Empress Dowager Zhao did was to secretly visit the queen.

Zhao Kuo naturally knew about this very quickly, but he didn't stop it, he also needed one thing to share the heat of the impasse in the negotiations a little.

So, in such a situation, not only Zhao Kuo calmed down, but even many officials in the DPRK and China did not put too much energy into negotiations.

Important ministers such as Pingyuan Jun and Yu Qing, Zhao Kuo naturally passed through each other's anger, and he would not have any doubts.

Immediately, Zhao Kuo's enthusiasm for negotiations dropped suddenly. And the collective coldness of Zhao State made the envoys of Yan State panic, for fear that King Zhao was engaged in some conspiracy, especially after the bad news that the Zhao army was still marching in China, it can be said that the envoys of Yan State had completely panicked.

Almost every day, he ran at both ends of the Longtai Palace and the Qin Embassy.

Obviously, the envoys of the Yan State had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, and still pinned their hopes for mediation on the Qin State.

However, the envoy of the Qin State gradually sensed it - the only person who could really have the final say in this negotiation was the King of Zhao, who had just ascended the throne, and the rest of the so-called Plains King and Yu Qing were just decorations. And this King Zhao's attitude, in fact, doesn't want to talk about it at all.

All he wanted to do was to drag Yan Guo and then use his army to speak.

This is also in line with the idea that the newly enthroned King Zhao should have established a firm foothold in meritorious service.

It's just that the question now is, where is the bottom line of this young King Zhao.

Is it Wuyang City as mentioned in the negotiation conditions? Or, Jicheng?!

If it is Wuyang, it is not impossible, even if it is a congratulatory gift from the Qin State to this King of Zhao. But if you want Jicheng, then you can't say that the Qin State will really intervene.

Thinking of this, the Qin envoy finally made up his mind, on the one hand, he began to contact Xianyang to remind him to prepare for another war, and on the other hand, Qin also began to ask for a meeting with the king of Yan, asking Zhao to stop the war immediately and return to the track of peace.

For this reason, the envoys of the Qin State even did not hesitate to threaten to start a war against Zhao.

If it was the words of the envoy of the Qin State, it didn't matter. But the problem is that the envoy of Qin came here, not only himself, but also the envoys of Wei and Han were also pulled over by the envoys of Qin.

Han and Wei were really scared by the Qin State, although they were unwilling, but they did not dare not come, and in the face of the Qin envoy's behavior of sending a message to the Zhao State without consent, the two envoys also hated it in their hearts.

There's no way, a weak country has no diplomacy!.

Although he knew that these words could not be the true intentions of the envoys of Han and Wei and even the two kings, what if? If Han Zhiguo doesn't talk about him, Wei may not covet the land of Hanoi.

In any case, the envoys of the Three Kingdoms who were bound together, even those as strong as Zhao Kuo had to be taken seriously.

The change in the attitude of the envoy of the Qin State quickly reached Zhao Kuo's ears, but Zhao Kuo did not wait for the news he wanted, and could only temporarily persuade the envoys of various countries to retreat on the grounds of physical discomfort.

This reason, although powerful, no one can force a king to work with a sick person, right? Even if you know he's faking illness.

But this reason can be one, two, and cannot be repeated and four.

Fortunately, the people of Qin reacted that it had been more than twenty days.

Zhao Kuo pinched his fingers and calculated the distance, if everything went well, Li Mu's good news should already be on the way.

Sure enough, it was the night of that day. Zhao Kuo waited for the news he wanted—a hundred miles of urgency—and Wuyang City was already under Li Mu's control.

Zhao Kuo's heart was suddenly settled, but he didn't say anything, sealed the silk book again, and arranged for a sergeant to put it away carefully, ready to surprise everyone tomorrow.....

In Zhao Kuo's excitement, the second day soon came. In the invitation of the envoys of the various countries, Zhao Kuo decisively ordered the envoys of the various countries to attend the meeting.

It's just that Zhao Kuo was quite surprised: just one day later, there were two more envoys to Zhao - Qi and Chu, and they also arranged for envoys to come.

Warring States have never been eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

In other countries, Zhao Kuo can understand that Han and Wei are afraid of the oppression of Qin, and Qi is worried about the cold lips and teeth, so they all go from Qin. Of course, Zhao Guo didn't take them seriously.

But how did your thick-eyed Chu State also betray the revolution?

What about your blood enmity with the Qin State?

People have served all your Yingdu, and King Chu Huai is also a guest in a foreign land, such a big hatred, say let it go?

If Chu State was also involved, Zhao Kuo would have to face the problem in front of him solemnly.

Soon, several exquisite carriages slowly drove into the Longtai Palace, judging by its magnificence, it was undoubtedly the envoys of various countries.

On the top of the main hall, Zhao Wang Kuo sat on the head, because he was receiving foreign ministers, Zhao Kuo put on the red dress that King Zhao had for the first time, and he also wore a crown on his head, and the dense bead threads hung down, isolating the eyes of all walks of life.

The civil and military ministers of the court are also separated on both sides, quietly waiting for the arrival of envoys from various countries.

After a short time, the bell above the festival battle rang, and the envoys of the six countries slowly walked up to the palace.

Zhao Kuo, who was sitting at the top, slowly watched as the Qin envoy led the envoys up the steps and into the hall. With just one glance, Zhao Kuo knew that his worries were a little redundant - Chu Guo is still a good comrade, and he is not with Qin Guo all the way.

I saw that the envoys of the Qin State were dressed in Xuanyi and walked in the forefront, followed by the envoys of Wei and Qi, and the last was the envoy of Han Yan. Pity Yan Guo, who should be the protagonist, can only walk at the back of the line with the Korean envoy!

Weak countries are really, no diplomacy!

As for the State of Chu, it was Shi Shiran who walked on the right-hand side of the envoys of the Qin State, and even rushed to the front of the Qin envoy for a while, obviously not giving the Qin envoy any face.

Obviously, the state of Chu made it clear that it was here to dismantle the platform - to demolish the platform of the Qin people.

Originally, Chu Guo saw that Zhao Guo was going to beat Yan Guo to death, and he still wanted to mediate, after all, he couldn't let Yan Guo be destroyed like this. Of course, there are some people who think that there is no need to go, after all, the catastrophe of Yan Kingdom is self-inflicted, especially King Zhao died on the battlefield, and Zhao Guo's revenge is justified.

Just when the state of Chu was in a stalemate, he suddenly heard that the state of Qin had sent someone to mediate, and he still wanted to protect the state of Yan.

Hearing this, the whole Chu State suddenly became angry with the enemy.

What? Mediation?

It is impossible to mediate in this life, Zhao Guo, who was attacked by Yan Guo, is it okay, and he is embarrassed to mediate after being beaten back?

If you want to mediate, you can pay me back!

Don't give? That's a fart!

Immediately, the state of Chu sent an envoy and rushed in the direction of Handan.

Some people died, but not completely......
