Chapter 514: Alien hostages
King Zhao Xiaocheng was still a minor, so the Empress Dowager of Zhao was in power, and as soon as she took the throne, she faced the Qin State that was unwilling to be placed by South Korea. So someone in Zhao suggested that Zhao make peace with Qi, and begged Qi to help and unite Qi Chu against Qin.
Coincidentally, in the forty-second year of King Qin Zhao, Tian Fazhang, the king of Qi, died, Tian Jian succeeded to the throne, and the state of Qi became ruled by the queen mother. This empress dowager was the daughter of Taishi 敫 (jiǎo) of that year, known as the queen in history.
When the queen heard that Zhao Guo was asking for help, she was delayed, and finally asked Zhao Guo to send the queen mother's favorite son Chang'an Jun to Qi as a hostage. Otherwise, there will be no troops.
Touching the dragon said that the allusion of the Empress Dowager Zhao was born at this time. Empress Dowager Zhao finally agreed to Qi's request, so Qi and Zhao united to fight against Qin.
According to Fan Ju's policy, the Qin state should make friends from afar and attack closely. And Qi is the object that Qin should befriend, seeing that if Zhao is attacked again, Qi will send troops, and then Chu will also take the opportunity to participate in peace, so King Qin Zhao ordered to suspend the pace of attacking Zhao and turn to talks.
In order to sabotage the alliance of Qi and Zhao and prevent them from having the opportunity to become a conspiracy, the Qin State agreed to send people to the Zhao State as hostages.
King Qin Zhao has two sons, and the prince has died in Wei as a hostage, and only An Guojun is left to win the pillar.
It was impossible to send him away again, so King Qin Zhao made Yingzhu the crown prince, and instead planned to send Yingzhu's son to Zhao State.
There are not many other winning columns, and there are really a lot of sons. Although Gan Mi, the wife of the main palace, has no children, there are more than twenty sons of Yingzhu!
With the experience of mourning the prince, Ying Zhu was reluctant to send his favorite son away, and King Qin Zhao was also reluctant, so he asked Ying Zhu to find someone he didn't like very much and send it to Zhao as a hostage.
This unlucky one who was sent to Zhao was an alien.
When the Jiang family heard the news, they did not object, but Jiang Anrao personally wrote a letter and sent it to Lü Buwei.
The general content is that the proton of Qin Guo has been sent to Zhao State, and you are doing a big business in Zhao State now, so help take care of it.
Jiang Anrao, who had a lot of money, didn't say anything, but he believed that Lu Buwei could take good care of Yiren.
In the same year, Empress Dowager Xuan, who was placed under house arrest and whose title was abolished, was ordered to be buried in Lishan by King Zhao.
Fan Ju adhered to the policy of distant friendship and close attack, so King Zhao eased his relationship with Zhao and continued to attack Han Wei. Bai Qi led the Qin army to attack Korea on a large scale, capturing nine cities including South Korea's Chengcheng, and killing more than 50,000 Korean troops.
followed Fan Ju with Wang Ji as the general, personally commanded an army of 200,000, and directly attacked Wei. Fan Ju's purpose is too clear, he is actually to deal with his former enemy Wei Qi!
Wei Qi ran away when he saw that the situation was not good, and hid directly in the house of Pingyuan Jun of Zhao State.
Fan Ju let Wang Yi wave his army and attack Zhao directly! After connecting the three cities of Zhao State, Lian Po, Zhao Hao, and Pingyuan Jun guarded the city together, and Qi State also sent 100,000 troops to aid Zhao State.
Fan Ju saw that if he continued to fight at this time, he would not be able to get cheap, so he withdrew his troops and led the team to withdraw back.
But after this battle, Fan Ju's temperament can also be seen. He is worthy of being the one who will take revenge, and taking Qin Jun to avenge his personal revenge can be said to be unrelenting!
Although Fan Ju's move is not inconsistent with what he said about the political views of long-distance friendship and close attack, it is obvious that after this person seeks a high position, he does not forget to use it for his own personal gain.
This alone shows the pattern of people. He is not as good as the successive ministers of the Qin State.
After this battle, there was no head-on battle between Qin and Zhao for the time being. But everyone has clearly understood that today, Qin and Zhao are the opponents who can compete. Therefore, not only was the Qin State secretly expanding its armaments and accumulating strength, but the Zhao State was also holding back its strength.
Jiang Anrao traveled almost all over the land in Qin in five years from the 40th year of King Qin Zhao to the 45th year of King Qin Zhao. In Hanzhong alone, more than 300 million acres of fields have been cultivated and the planting method of three crops in two years has been implemented.
The amount of grain that is handed over to the state treasury each year is already a terrifying figure, and this is not counting the military supplies created by the vigorous development of poultry and livestock breeding under her supervision.
Jiang Anrao's behavior is actually not uncriticized.
Let's just say that Jiang Anrao is a giant of the Mo family, and the New Mojing also preaches the Huaxia family every day, but why does she only implement the cultivation strategy in Qindi? Her Mo family kept producing all kinds of weapons for the Qin State as an arsenal, and she herself also led people to grasp the agricultural production of the Qin State, and the benefits were taken by the Qin State, how can you say one thing and do another? What about saying that you love the world and love the world?
Jiang Anrao didn't hear it when he heard it.
Or else? She turned into an immortal and turned over the land of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States? But it's almost there, she doesn't sleep enough, she doesn't have time to think about it so much!
Maybe it's really the spirit of the king, so in the past five years, except for a few areas with a bit of drought and flooding, there have been no major natural disasters in the past five or six years, on the other hand, Zhao Di has had a major drought!
After the truce between Qin and Zhao, the war in the world seems to be less intense, and all countries are waiting to see the final battle between the two tigers of Qin and Zhao.
In the meantime, another thing happened.
When King Qin Zhao was forty-four years old, King Chu Qingxiang of Chu State was seriously ill, and at that time, the crown prince Xiong Wan was still hostage in Qin State, and Chun Shenjun Huang Xie personally came to Qin State, and tried his best to persuade King Qin to allow Xiong Wan to go back to Chu State to see his father.
But King Qin Zhao still refused to nod. Chun Shenjun met Fan Ju several times in private, and each time he brought rich gifts.
In the end, Fan Ju helped to persuade, but King Qin Zhao didn't even nod, but he was a little unhappy with Fan Ju because of this.
King Chu Qingxiang has more than one son of the crown prince, although Xiong Wan is called the crown prince, but he has been a hostage in the Qin State for many years, and it is not so easy to go back to take charge of the Chu State, after all, the other princes of the Chu State are also eyeing the throne.
Maybe Fan Ju felt that he had a good relationship with Xiong Wan, if Xiong Wan was the king of Chu, it would be suitable for him to use his long-range and close attack, so he worked hard to help say good things in front of King Qin Zhao.
It's just that with little success.
In the end, Huang Xie said goodbye to King Qin Zhao, and made someone pretend to be the prince to stay in Xianyang, and let the prince Xiong pretend to be the chauffeur of the Chu envoy, planning to escape from the Qin State with the prince of Chu like this. As a result, not long after leaving Xianyang City, he met Jiang Anrao, who came back with someone.
Huang Xie wanted to walk over without saying hello, but he couldn't, so he had to walk up and say hello.
Jiang Narao stared at the pretending coachman of the prince Xiong Wan in front of Huang Xie for a long time. I've seen it all after the bear sweats!
"Chunshen-kun wait for a moment."
Jiang Anrao greeted him.
Chun Shen Junzheng didn't understand what was going on, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind them. The prince of Chu, Xiong Wan, was frightened, and when he saw the group of people coming straight to him, he felt that he might not be able to go back to Chu.
