Chapter 290: Three Thousand Dead, Only More Than Three Hundred Left?

Next.

After the envoy of Yan State left, there was no news about Zhao Han's trip to Qin State to save people.

I'm very uneasy!

If Zhao Han died in Emperor Wu City, after King Yan knew about this matter, Shen Wanhong's matter would be put to rest! The result of this is that King Zhao has lost a prince, and Zhao Han will no longer be the weak and incompetent person he used to be in King Zhao's heart, but a person who is expected to become a prince.

If Zhao Han dies, King Zhao will most likely feel distressed!

However, this also proves that Zhao Han is not a suitable person to become a prince, using three thousand dead soldiers to test Zhao Han, King Zhao thought about it carefully, and felt that his test of Zhao Han was too cruel, if he was asked to make another choice, he would definitely not let three thousand dead soldiers go out again.

"I'm impulsive!" King Zhao let out a long sigh.

However, when he received the letter from the envoy of Qin, King Zhao learned from the letter that Zhao Han had colluded with King Qin to betray Zhao, and he was also carried away by this letter for a while.

will make such a decision.

As for the true identity of the messenger, King Zhao did not doubt him!

Directly let the three thousand dead soldiers dispatch.

However, if Zhao Han can survive, then Zhao Han must also know that this is King Zhao sending people to hunt him down, so Zhao Han will inevitably hate King Zhao in his heart.

"I really made a very wrong choice, Zhao Han, or I was negligent and careless! I'm really sorry for you! King Zhao sat alone on the dragon chair, patted his thigh, and said with self-pity.

At this moment, Zhao Heng came back with an injury!

Seeing Zhao Heng walking in covered in blood, King Zhao was suddenly stunned!

He looked at Zhao Heng and realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly walked over to help Zhao Heng and said, "What happened?" ”

Zhao Heng glanced at King Zhao deeply, then knelt down with a bitter face, and immediately cried bitterly and said: "Father, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you, you asked me to lead three thousand dead soldiers to hunt down Zhao Han, but I didn't kill Zhao Han, I lost, I failed!" ”

King Zhao's eyes widened in surprise, staring at Zhao Heng and asking, "You mean, the three thousand dead soldiers have not been able to kill Zhao Han?" ”

Zhao Heng cried and nodded, choked up, "Yes, father." I...... I lived up to your expectations, and I pursued Zhao Han with 3,000 dead soldiers, but we were ambushed by them on the way, and although we resisted bravely, we failed. I brought back only more than 300 dead soldiers, and everyone else ...... They were all killed by Zhao Han. ”

What, only three hundred dead are left?

Hearing this, King Zhao almost fainted directly, and said in shock: "What, I have carefully cultivated the dead soldiers for many years, and there are only more than 300 people left?" ”

King Zhao's eyes instantly became hollow, and the sound of heart-wrenching wails resounded throughout the hall, he clenched his hands into fists, trembling violently, and the flames of unwillingness and anger burned in his chest.

"There were only about 300 people...... I have given them supreme glory and responsibility to raise the dead soldiers I have worked so hard to raise, but there are only more than 300 people left! What a humiliation, what a failure! ”

King Zhao gritted his teeth, and a trace of fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes.

He hated Zhao Han, hated his vicious methods, hated him for betraying ......

But more than that, he was disappointed in the army he had built up and worried about the future, and his heart was dripping blood, which was the regret and regret for the dead soldiers he had carefully cultivated.

"Zhao Han, you rebel! I will definitely let you pay for your blood debts and let you know the fate of betraying Zhao Guo! King Zhao roared angrily, his voice echoing through the hall, filled with endless anger and hatred.

He took a deep breath and forcibly calmed himself down, but Zhao Heng directly pulled out the sword at his waist and said with a snot flow: "Father, I failed you, the three thousand dead soldiers died because of my negligence, I will apologize now!" ”

Looked at!

King Zhao kicked the sword in Zhao Heng's hand directly away, and reprimanded angrily: "Now that I have lost three thousand dead soldiers, you still want to kill yourself, are you trying to force me to death?" ”

King Zhao's words made Zhao Heng burst into tears in an instant, he hugged King Zhao's legs, and cried loudly: "Father, it's me who is incompetent, I'm sorry for you!" ”

King Zhao flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "Okay!" You stand up for me now and do something serious for Lao Tzu! ”

When Zhao Heng heard this, he immediately stopped crying, stood up and wiped his face, and said: "Now that Zhao Han has betrayed Zhao State, I took three thousand dead soldiers on the road to chase and kill Zhao Han, but I didn't expect that Zhao Han was already the person of the King of Qin, he had already set up an ambush on the road, we were surrounded by the lost Qin soldiers, I escaped from death, with the only remaining more than 300 people, I survived by luck, father, you must kill Zhao Han!" He is the scourge of our Zhao country, and sooner or later, the Zhao country will be destroyed by him. ”

At this time, King Zhao's face was gloomy, and his eyes flashed with anger!

He listened to Zhao Heng's story, and his heart was already extremely angry.

He knew what Zhao Han's betrayal meant to Zhao Guo, it was not only a family shame, but also a crisis for Zhao Guo.

"Father, I must kill Zhao Han and avenge the dead soldiers!"

A trace of firmness flashed in Zhao Heng's eyes, and he knelt in front of King Zhao, his hands clenched into fists.

King Zhao glanced at Zhao Heng deeply, and then slowly spoke: "Zhao Han, this traitor, I will make him pay the price sooner or later." However, what we need now is calmness, since Zhao Han has betrayed the Zhao State, then he will definitely take refuge in the Qin State. With the Qin State as an enemy, we cannot afford to slack off in the slightest. ”

Zhao Heng listened to King Zhao's words, although he was a little unwilling in his heart, he also knew that now was not the time to be willful.

He nodded and said, "Father, you're right, what should we do?" ”

King Zhao's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a deep voice: "First of all, we must strengthen the guards of the city wall to prevent Zhao Han from bringing people to attack, and secondly, send people to the various city gates to check to see if there is any trace of Zhao Han." Finally, we must immediately negotiate with the Qin State and inquire about Zhao Han's status and movements in the Qin State. ”

After Zhao Heng heard this, he couldn't help but admire King Zhao's strategy.

He knew that his father wanted to block Zhao Han's retreat first, and then slowly find an opportunity to kill Zhao Han.

King Zhao's brows tightened, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, the anger at this time was because Zhao Heng buried all his three thousand dead soldiers, and he was unwilling.

Zhao Heng lowered his head, said with a sad face: ", it's all my fault, I failed to kill Zhao Han, it's my incompetence." ”

King Zhao took a deep breath and sat back on his throne, he pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "Zhao Heng, the responsibility for your failure this time is not yours, but our plan. Our plan was not thorough enough, underestimating Zhao Han's strength. However, this failure also sounded the alarm bell for us. ”

Zhao Heng raised his teary eyes and looked at King Zhao, a little surprised.

King Zhao continued: "There is no need to feel sorry for the dead soldiers. They sacrificed their lives for the country, and their sacrifices will not be in vain, and we need to learn from this failure and reformulate our plans. ”

Zhao Heng's heart warmed, he didn't expect his father to say this.

He kowtowed heavily, choked up, and said, "Thank you, Father!" ”

King Zhao smiled faintly, waved his hand and said, "Get up." You don't have to blame yourself. ”

Zhao Heng nodded heavily, his heart was surging, although this defeat made his heart ache, but his father's tolerance and encouragement made him see hope for the future.

Return to the Hengwang Mansion.

Zhao Heng thought that his trick had succeeded, and informed his father of Zhao Han's betrayal of Zhao Guo, it was exactly what he wanted, so that King Zhao would never trust Zhao Han in the future, and therefore, he would get the position of prince.

And Zhao Han will definitely become a rebel in the eyes of King Zhao and will kill him.

Zhao Heng called a few beauties and said, "You all come over and pinch your feet, I will be the prince in the future, and I will be comfortable to serve, and you will be the concubine of Zhao in the future." ”

At this time, more than a dozen bewitching beauties began to serve Zhao Heng, and he already fantasized about the beauty of himself after becoming a prince!

However, at this time, the Queen Mother suddenly appeared in the Hengwang Mansion.

The Queen Mother looked at Zhao Heng's indisputable virtue, and said angrily: "Zhao Heng, all the three thousand dead soldiers you led this time died, although you are the third prince, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is inescapable, the three thousand dead soldiers all died because of your incompetence, and now you still have the heart to have fun here, someone will press Zhao Heng down, and two hundred big boards will wait, let him have a long memory!" ”

Hearing the Queen Mother's angry reprimand, Zhao Heng's face turned pale in an instant, and his heart was also full of self-blame and remorse.

However, he didn't want to be punished by the Queen Mother, he bowed his head and knelt there tremblingly, hoping that the Queen Mother would be able to open up.

However, the Queen Mother did not have the slightest mercy.

She coldly ordered: "Come on, press Zhao Heng down and beat him with two hundred boards." Let him remember that in the future, there must be a plan and a plan, and he cannot act recklessly. ”

Soon, a guard stepped forward, pressed Zhao Heng to his knees, and then tied his hands behind him with a rope and pressed him to the ground. Then, another guard came over with a big wooden board and hit Zhao Heng's ass hard.

"Ahh

Zhao Heng couldn't help but scream, and a sharp pain came from his buttocks, making his whole body tremble.

However, the guards didn't stop, they kept beating Zhao Heng's ass until they had enough two hundred boards.

During the whole process, Zhao Heng gritted his teeth and did not make any sound.

He knew he was doing something wrong, and he knew he should take the consequences.

However, these two hundred boards are too painful for him!

Zhao Heng's ass had become a blur of flesh and blood, and his body was trembling constantly.

Zhao Heng felt that his body no longer belonged to him, and the sharp pain in his ass made him unable to move.

The Queen Mother looked at Zhao Heng's miserable situation and said coldly: "Zhao Heng, do you know your mistake now?" You have to remember later that you can't make the same mistake again. ”

Zhao Heng snorted in pain, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, the child knows, the child will definitely be more cautious in the future, and will not make the same mistake again." ”

The Queen Mother nodded, but the two hundred boards had not yet been played.

The Queen Mother lifted a rattan stick and slapped it on Zhao Heng's buttocks.

Zhao Heng screamed, knelt in front of the Queen Mother, and cried: "The Queen Mother spares her life, the child will not dare next time!" ”

The Queen Mother sneered: "Hmph, next time? Do you want to have a next time? This time it's the lives of 3,000 dead soldiers, and next time I don't know how many people will die because of you! You've disappointed me so much! ”

Zhao Heng was beaten to the point that his skin was open and his blood was dripping, and his cry echoed in King Heng's mansion, and he was in pain!

The Queen Mother became more and more fierce, and every time the rattan was pumped hard on Zhao Heng's ass, his clothes were already stained red with blood, and even his blood was on the ground.

"The Queen Mother spares her life, the Queen Mother spares her life!"

Zhao Heng cried and shouted, his body could no longer support it, and he collapsed to the ground, leaving the Queen Mother at his disposal.

The Queen Mother gasped, and the rattan slapped Zhao Heng's body, Zhao Heng screamed in pain and passed out.

"Come on, send Zhao Heng back to think about it behind closed doors!"

The Queen Mother ordered, and Zhao Heng was dragged down by the guards.

The Queen Mother sat on the chair tiredly, she closed her eyes, thinking about the future of this Zhao State in her heart.

She knew that her time was running out and that she had to get the country in order.

Although Zhao Heng is the third prince, her incompetence has disappointed her, and she must find a suitable candidate to take over the throne, otherwise the future of Zhao will be very dangerous.

Zhao Heng, who was sent out, screamed in pain, his buttocks had been completely beaten and he couldn't walk at all. He lay on the bed, his hands on his buttocks, sweating profusely.

He thought about the cruelty of the Queen Mother......

Zhao Heng invited the best doctor to treat his buttocks, and after a few days of treatment, his injuries improved.

During this time, Zhao Heng kept thinking about the cruelty and ruthlessness of the Queen Mother.

His inability to make the three thousand dead soldiers gone, he wanted to kill Zhao Han, but in the end, the most unlucky was himself, and this incident also caused his reputation in the palace to suffer a great blow.

Many forces loyal to Zhao Heng also began to doubt Zhao Heng's strength, and they had an unspoken fear of Zhao Han, almost when talking about Zhao Han, there would be a feeling of talking about the tiger's color.
