Zhao Palace

The drums rose, and a group of guards lined up on the left and right with sharp swords, and the palace gate opened, and one person entered with the scepter of the messenger in his hand, followed by his entourage.

"Drink!"

The guards all let out angry shouts, the sword light flashed, they all pulled out their swords at their waists, and set up a sword net in front of them, and the Qin envoy snorted coldly, "Could it be that this is the way of hospitality in Zhao Kingdom!" ”

Zhao Mu stepped out, his eyes fell on the Qin envoy and he didn't recognize it, when he heard that the Qin envoy was coming, he originally thought it must be Qin Xiang Fan Li, Zhao Mu snorted coldly, "If the envoy is sincere, he will definitely be able to pass this sword formation!" ”

The Qin envoy saw in his eyes, this kind of trick was the most boring, his arm grabbed it and stepped forward, the sword array in front of him was put away one after another, the two countries did not fight each other, although Qin and Zhao were evil, they must not break the rules, so as not to lose their faith and be criticized by other countries.

In the main hall of the palace, Zhao Wangdan took a deep breath, his voice was getting closer and closer, and he couldn't help but look down, the envoy of the Qin State entered, Zhao Mu followed, let out a sigh of relief, as long as there is a Hou Ye, he will definitely be able to deal with it.

The Qin envoy stepped in, his body stood straight and did not speak, Zhao Wangdan sat on it and didn't know what to do for a while, according to common sense, it should explain what he meant, why did this person say nothing, and his eyes couldn't help but fall to the side Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu's face was gloomy, "Envoy Qin, now that you see my king, don't you quickly explain your intentions!" ”

The Qin envoy snorted coldly, "As an envoy and on behalf of the Qin State, this envoy should deal with the lord of the Zhao State, but now there is an extra outsider here to point fingers, which will inevitably ruin the etiquette, so how can the envoy be embarrassed!" ”

Zhao Mu's nose was almost crooked when he heard it, this person made it clear that he couldn't get along with himself, Zhao Mu's face was flushed, the other party was the envoy of the Qin State and didn't dare to make a mistake so he had to hold back, Zhao Wangdan saw it in his eyes and said busily: "This person's intention is the intention of the widow, does the envoy think it is feasible?" ”

The Qin envoy looked surprised, "So I want to congratulate this lord!" ”

"Don't dare!" Zhao Mu snorted coldly, dissatisfied with the Qin envoy's difficulty, but fortunately, the king relieved himself.

Qin Envoy took out an object from his sleeve and stepped forward, Zhao Mu moved forward, "Wait, what is this?" ”

"The King's Letter!"

"Leave it to Ben Hou!"

Qin envoy sneered, "The king confessed, this thing should be handed over to King Zhao in his own hands, although the meaning of the lord can represent the will of the king, it may not be equivalent to the king!" The man looked at Zhao Mu with a smile on his face, as an envoy, he must have sharp teeth, Zhao Mu had to give up after suffering repeated losses, and the king of Qin would not be so unbearable to do something unfavorable to the king.

The Qin envoy stepped forward, holding the object respectfully in both hands, Zhao Wangdan got up and took it, put it on the table and slowly opened it, but it was just a cloth scroll with handwriting written on it, and if you look carefully, your face shows joy, "Negotiate peace!" Zhao Wangdan hesitated, and then saw that Zhao Mu's expression changed greatly, he didn't want to use his tricks again and again to kill Zhao Kuo, this person is really fateful, and now that King Qin has sent someone to send peace documents, the dispute between Qin and Zhao Changping will inevitably end.

The Qin envoy gave a salute, "My king has a loving heart, and he can't bear the death and injury of the soldiers and the suffering of the people, and now he has come to discuss the matter of peace with the king's order!" ”

"This...."Zhao Wangdan was out of idea for a while, his eyes fell to the side again Zhao Mu, Zhao Mu heard that the Qin people were in a mess, after all, he had seen a big scene, and quickly came to his senses, "The envoy can rest for a while, and reply immediately after my king's discussion!" ”

"I hope the king will reply sooner, and the envoy will return to Xianyang to resume his life!"

"Good, good, good!" Zhao Wang Dan said three good, I can't wait for the Qin envoy to leave immediately, from the Qin envoy into the half pillar of incense time, has already been like sitting on pins and needles, sweat on the forehead, Qin envoy snorted coldly and turned away, I heard that the new king of Zhao Guo was cowardly and incompetent, and now when I see it, he is decisive and fair for the king, so that he can be loved by the people.

Qin envoy left, Zhao Wang Dan breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly wiped the sweat with his sleeve, Zhao Mu stepped forward, took the Qin envoy and the letter and looked at it carefully, only to see a few strokes written clearly, Qin and Zhao have been fighting for more than three years, and they do not want to start another military disaster, they are willing to sign a contract, look at it in their eyes, and they will not do anything that is not beneficial to the personality of the Qin people, and the Qin army occupies an absolute advantage in the battle of Changping, which everyone knows very well, why did he suddenly send a letter to discuss and peace, could it be that Zhao Kuo came up with a way to defeat the Qin army again.

"Master Hou, how to deal with it?"

Zhao Mu said: "What does the king think? ”

Zhao Wangdan said: "This king has long had the intention of negotiating peace, but he is worried that those old ministers will not agree, and now it is best for Qin to send a contract, so as to avoid the suffering of soldiers." ”

The army has been raised year after year, the Zhao country is miserable, the land is barren, and the people are displaced, which is completely what the new king does not want to see, and the people will inevitably be dissatisfied if this continues.

Zhao Mu's face was gloomy, "There is no harm in negotiating peace, Ben Hou is just worried about Zhao Kuo!" ”

"Zhao Kuo? What did Master Hou say? ”

Zhao Mu said: "Zhao Kuo has a very high prestige among the people of Zhao State, and now he is replacing the army of the commander of the army, and the Qin State takes the initiative to negotiate peace, once it is spread, it will inevitably be thought that it is Zhao Kuo's work, and all the credit is completely recorded on Zhao Kuo, in fact, the Qin State is afraid of the power of the king." ”

"The Qin people are afraid of the power of the outnumbered?" Zhao Wangdan showed a look of disbelief on his face, although he believed in Zhao Mu, but this kind of compliment was someone else, even Zhao Wangdan himself couldn't believe it.

"Imagine the king, who can make the Zhao Kingdom truly strong?"

Zhao Wangdan tapped his finger on the table, "It must be a widow." ”

"Who is the one who can put an end to a war in an instant?"

"It's a widow!"

"Who is the one who mobilized the army and accepted Zhao Kuo as the commander to fight with Qin?"

"Still outnumbered!"

Zhao Wangdan's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands again and again, "I don't want to be a widow, if it weren't for the Hou Ye reminding me of this kind of thing, the widow would never dare to think about it." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Mu's mouth, what Qin Envoy said was right, no one can replace the role of King Zhao, after all, he holds the royal power from above, and a word can change a person's fate, no matter how good Zhao Kuo is, as long as he firmly controls the king, no one wants to move Benhou, why not take the opportunity to trap Zhao Kuo for disloyalty and injustice!

Zhao Wangdan was overjoyed to receive such praise from Zhao Mu, and suddenly remembered that the Qin envoy was still waiting for the news, "What did Hou Ye mean by what he just said?" ”

Zhao Mu said: "If this battle is worthy of the king's merit instead of Zhao Kuo, it is inevitable that someone will have high merit and cover the master's hidden scheming and misdeeds!" ”

"Misdeeds, no, Zhao Kuo is a loyal and righteous person, and because of Wang Mei, the widow is convinced that he will never do that."

"The king, the hearts of the people are separated from the belly, the previous Zhao Kuo had no merits at all, and the power is not comparable to today, now the military power is in hand, and no one in the entire Zhao country can compete with Zhao Kuo, so I have to guard against it, Ben Hou privately learned that the Changping defenders will shout Zhao Kuo's name in every battle, and they don't put the king in their hearts at all!"

"How do you shout?"

"Fight for the *Army!" Zhao Mu deliberately played with right and wrong, ignoring the sentence in front of Zhao Jun when he was fighting, 'fighting for Zhao State', it was nothing more than that this move made King Zhao alienated from Zhao Kuo, forming pressure, and then depriving him of military power, Zhao Mu knew that if he wanted to completely own Zhao State, it was not enough to control the cowardly King Zhao in front of him, the most important thing was military power, and now he was firmly in the hands of his mortal enemy Zhao Kuo, and the person who could make him turn the situation around was still Zhao Wang Dan.

"How can it be that you don't want to say such disobedient words!" Zhao Wangdan's little pink and white face showed anger, don't forget that he is the king of Zhao State, Zhao Kuo has always been a minister, since ancient times, Zhao Kuo read the sage book in vain, and showed loyalty in the palace that day, it is not only a qiē is just an illusion, not only himself, the first king and Wang Mei were deceived by this man.

"The king's wrath!"

"How can you not be angry when you call the widow, Master Hou, you must help the widow."

Zhao Mu looked proud in his eyes, completely grasped Zhao Wangdan's weakness, had no opinions, and must rely on himself in every way, cowardly and timid, the higher Zhao Kuo's voice, the more battles, the more worried, as long as he grasped these two points, Zhao Kuo would undoubtedly be defeated, and he still solved the matter of peace in Qin State in front of him, his body was close, his hand was on Zhao Wangdan's shoulder, his fingers were thick and powerful, Zhao Wangdan was attached to it, like a frightened child, he needed to be comforted by others.

"Don't worry, Zhao Mu has his own way to deal with it!"
