At the end of the meeting, Suo Lushen also reported on the matter discussed with the Qin people.

None of the people present could decide on this matter, so they could only report back to Sishang and wait for Sishang's reply as soon as possible to decide whether to agree to this meeting and negotiation.

After the meeting, more than 20 people from the Xuanyi Department came forward and began to build momentum for Que and Jun.

With the novelty and shock of Solushen's return from tens of thousands of miles away, and the curiosity aroused by those Western ink artists whose complexions and appearances were different from those of Middle-earth, the matter of Que and Jun was widely publicized.

In addition to publicizing the affairs of Que and the monarch, he also took this opportunity to promote the morality and right and wrong of the Mohists, and preached "benefiting the world" among the people as the highest standard for evaluating the rights and wrongs of the ruling nobles.

Those who were born from the Hu people, such as the Ma's Milk, also spoke of some grassland life and those oppressions.

Daily announcement, time flies, and those rumors also spread quickly, flying over Handan to Zhao Du Zhongmu.

…………

Zhao Du Zhongmu, the palace room in the city.

The sick Zhao Hou was lying there, covered with a brand new brocade quilt with cotton inside, and his face was a little cold and blue in the hot weather.

Next to the bed, stood several guards with swords.

The close attendants of Zhao Guojun's side have a special name, called "backfight".

The title is a bit of a starting point, but there are allusions.

In the past, Xiangzi asked for it on behalf of the monarch, and the horse county was exhausted, and the shilling dancers placed hundreds of people in their feathers, and they had a big gold bucket first. On behalf of the king, drunk, fighting and fighting, Yicheng, brain smeared.

Since then, the anti-fighting has become a special title of the Zhao State, which is the honorary title of the Zhao State's close attendants, and the "anti-fighting" people are all brave and loyal, wearing black clothes, and standing on the side of the monarch with a sharp blade.

Standing with a sword in a fight, if there is an order from the king, he can directly kill those whom the king thinks are guilty.

But at this moment, there was a person arguing with the monarch, so that the angry monarch almost closed his breath three times and twice.

But the counter-fighters all bowed their heads and thought they couldn't see it, because they all knew that no matter how angry the monarch was, it would be impossible to kill the person in front of them, so even if they quarreled with the monarch to this extent, they could still only do nothing.

The person who quarreled with Zhao Hou was the Xiangguo Gong Zhonglian of the Zhao era.

Gong Zhonglian is also very old, and he needs the support of two attendants to walk, and he has only been recuperating at home for a few years, but today he dragged his old sick body to the palace.

Zhao Hou on the bed was obviously angry by Gong Zhonglian's words, his lips trembled, and his eyes were wide open.

The Gong Zhonglian, who was at the head of the bottom, stood with the support of the two attendants, made a gesture of admonishment, and said in a loud voice: "Please retract such an idea, this is harmful to the Zhao family." ”

Zhao Hou, who had an angry face, stretched out his hand vigorously, slapped the brocade quilt and said, "I am the king of Zhao Kingdom, but I am also a father!" ”

"I seek to divide the country for my son, let him become the king of a country, and vassalize Zhao, why not? Is it not possible for a king to love his children and plan for them? ”

Obviously, it was because Gong Zhonglian heard the news of this incident that he dragged his sick body to Zhao Hou's bed, and did not hesitate to anger Zhao Hou and admonished him.

Before the death of the Liehou Zhao, he discussed with his younger brother that after his younger brother promised that the future son Zhang would be an adult and virtuous, he would pass on the throne to his nephew instead of his own children.

Before Liehou died, he also made arrangements, prepared enough team for his son, and gave Handan to his son, ready in case his uncle and nephew turned his face.

A series of important ministers were also confidants of the Liehou era, and the scholars with foreign surnames who were raised all wanted to repay the kindness of the Liehou.

However, it is human nature to want to pass on the throne to his son and plan for the future of his children.

Over the years, Zhao Hou turned a blind eye and allowed or connived at his son Gongzi to develop his own power and accumulate strength.

He also pursued a policy of befriending the Wei state, hoping to get the support of the Wei state.

In the past few years, he has also promoted many of his cronies, but there are too many talents left over from the Liehou era, and the courtiers cannot fully support his ideas after all.

I tried to test the rumors before, and wanted to pass on the throne as my son, but I immediately attracted a lot of opposition.

Soon after, many rumors appeared on the streets of Zhongmu, and Xiao Sikou, who was responsible for collecting public opinion, reported to Zhao Hou: Que and Jun violated the law and privately transported swords and stirrups to trade with the Hu people. Que and Jun are good friends with Gongzi, and there may be rumors in the market that there is a disaster of sibling rivalry in Zhao State.

This incident made Zhao Hou, who was originally sick, even more irritable, and after thinking about it for a long time, a cronie gave a way to get the best of both worlds.

Zhao State, there are two jurisprudence claims.

One is Zhao who was separated from the Three Jin Dynasty, and the other is the Daiguo who was destroyed by Zhao Xiangzi. In any case, the Dai Kingdom is a country, and it is a big country that the Zhao clan has destroyed so far, and the legal land is huge.

In later generations, King Wuling of Zhao wanted to take back his son's power and crown his eldest son as the acting king; After Qin destroyed Zhao, the nobles of Zhao also established a dynasty after the restoration of the country.

Because the destruction of the Daiguo was not destroyed by force, but by a semi-military annexation.

The monarch of the era was Zhao Xiangzi's brother-in-law, and after Zhao Xiangzi killed the monarch of the dynasty with a banquet, he annexed the kingdom by inheritance, making the dynasty a part of the state of Zhao, and also became the legal title of the state of Zhao that could be divided and established.

The Marquis of Zhao felt that since the countrymen and ministers objected to him passing the throne to his son, he would let his son be the monarch and be sealed in the Daidi, as a small sect, and at the same time exist as a vassal state of the Zhao State.

In this way, it can be regarded as reserving the sacrifice for his own lineage. It did not break its original oath and did not attract too much opposition.

However, as soon as this rumor was released, it attracted the public Zhonglian, who had not been involved in politics for several years, to block the palace and admonish again and again.

Zhao Hou was angry and asked again, "Don't you have no children?" Have you not planned for your children? ”

Gong Zhonglian took a deep breath, let the guards who were supporting him temporarily let go, and after saluting, he said, "The beloved son of his parents has far-reaching plans. ”

"Feng Gongzi Dynasty is in the Dynasty, this is not the Love Gongzi Dynasty, but the Harm Gongzi Dynasty."

Gong Zhonglian didn't even look at Zhao Hou's increasingly ugly face, and said sharply: "Zhao is Zhao, the road is blue, the battle is several generations, and the three points are promoted." ”

"But even if you are divided into Jin, you can't forget that you have been a minister in the Jin Kingdom."

"Since you can't forget that you were a minister in the Jin Kingdom, can you forget the rebellion of Quwodaiyi?"

"If the prince of Feng is in the dynasty and is the king, this is the disaster of the Quwo Dynasty of the Zhao State! When the time comes, the brothers will kill each other, and Gongzi Zhang is not the Marquis of Jin, I am afraid that there will be Zheng Boke Duan at that time! ”

"When the time comes, won't the sacrifice be cut off?"

After Gong Zhonglian talked about Qu Wodaiyi and Zheng Bokeduan, Zhao Hou's face became even more ugly, but he couldn't refute Gong Zhonglian's words.

As a king, he was not unaware of the consequences of dividing the country in two, and even if he was a vassal state, it would be a great disaster.

But as a father, he wants to plan more for his son.

However, the public administration does not even talk about the monarch's official weapons, but only talks about the partition from the perspective of a father, which is not a good thing, but a bad thing.

This made Zhao Hou unable to refute, because from the perspective of the monarch, this matter must be wrong, only from the perspective of the deep love of parents and children, this is untenable now, let alone the rest.

Gong Zhonglian said: "In the past, Jian Zi was ill, and he summoned his son and told him: 'I am dead, I have been buried, and I will go up to the mountain of the summer house to look at it'. Xiangzi respectfully promised. Jian Zixue, who had been buried and was in decline, summoned the minister and told him: 'I wish to go to the summer house to hope'. The ministers all admonished: 'Ascending to the summer house is to travel.' Serve the decay to swim, do not'. Xiangzi said: 'The life of this ancestor is also, and the widow dares to abolish it'. The ministers are respectful. Xiangzi went to the summer house to look forward to the customs, and the joy was very beautiful, so Xiangzi said: "The ancestors will teach it with this." and return, ten years to replace. ”

"Seeking to replace the country, this is what Jianzi and Xiangzi began to plan. Jianzi and Xiangzi did not seal out the generations, which shows the importance of the generations in Zhao. Does the king think that your intelligence can surpass Jianzi and Xiangzi? ”

Zhao Hou was helpless and silent, he naturally didn't dare to compare with Zhao Xiangzi and Zhao Jianzi. Not only are these two people ancestors, but also because these two people are the founders of the foundation of Zhao State, Zhao Hou does not dare to compare with them.

Gong Zhonglian said: "If the king has one day, he sacrifices Jianzi and Xiangzi in the temple, how can he say about the matter of replacing the land?" ”

"As a monarch, the country is weak, this is wrong."

"It's also wrong to be a father and put your son in danger."

"To be a descendant is against the wishes of our ancestors, which is even more wrong."

"It's all wrong to be in the country and in the private and to worship the temple, is the monarch still going to persevere?"

Zhao Hou's breathing became short, and after coughing a few times, he scolded: "The widow's royal order, the courtiers must oppose it, is this the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers?" ”

Gong Zhonglian stood up again, and said: "In the past, the first gentleman had a good sound, and he wanted to appreciate the two musicians of Gun and Shi 10,000 acres of land, but he was finally advised by the courtiers. So there is Wu Qi in Zongxi River, Ximen Leopard in Yecheng, Zhongshan also belongs to Wei, and Zhao still has to fight Chu from the Wei people, and Wei Hou does not dare to bully. This is because he is good at listening to the advice of his courtiers. ”

"In the past, Shang was arbitrary, and he was killed by Bigan's persuasion, so that he was burned in Lutai. That's why they don't listen to the advice of their courtiers. ”

was scolded back, Zhao Hou said angrily: "Since you don't make him the acting king, then it's okay to make him the prime minister, right?" ”

Gongzhong was secretly shocked, and he was afraid that this was Zhao Hou's strategy of retreating, first talking about dividing the country as a substitute, and then taking a step back and saying that it was the prime minister.

However, behind Gong Zhonglian, there were many people who were not from the Zhao clan, and as the leader of these classes, it was impossible for him to back down at this time.

Zhao Hou said, and said: "Is this also refutable?" There is far from the Duke of Zhou as a complementary king. Within the Three Jin Dynasty, Wei Chengzi assisted his brother, and Xia Ti assisted his nephew. Chu Zhiling Yin, also many royal families. Only the appearance of Qi is the foreign surname Tian, and after all, the sacrifice of the prince was broken. ”
