Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Judging from the past few years, although it is necessary to attack the State of Zhao eastward, it is not a very good idea now, because in the several wars between the State of Qin and the State of Zhao, there has never been a successful retake from the State of Zhao. Over even an inch of land.

In other words, the military generals and soldiers of the Qin State had not done any meritorious service for several years, and instead they were only punished. This was undoubtedly a big blow to the power of the warriors in the court.

Since then, the official power of the Qin State has also grown secretly, otherwise it would not be the case that Lu Buwei and Cai Ze, two officials who have never led a company, are the top officials of the Qin State.

The military generals have long been dissatisfied with this situation, and now they are planning to use the war to recover Yiqu country to add luster and prestige to their warriors, but Cai Ze jumped out and said that the attack on Yiqu should be postponed, but instead Transferring the main force to the east to support Zhao Guo, how can this not make these generals angry?

After the originally silent generals started to bombard Cai Ze one by one, Cai Ze's face suddenly turned pale, knowing that he might not be able to win today.

Although it is true that the power of officials in Qin State is stronger than that of military generals, it is the sum of Lu Buwei and Cai Ze. Cai Ze alone cannot be the opponent of military generals.

Sitting on the throne, King Chu of Qin saw this scene, pondered for a moment and finally had a calculation in his heart, reached out and knocked on the table vigorously, stopping the generals from continuing to bombard Cai Ze one after another.

"Okay, generals, don't blame Mr. Gang Cheng. After all, Mr. Gang Cheng is also loyal to the country. I know this."

After a pause, Qin Wangchu said again: "However, since most people do not agree to send troops to assist Wei, then this matter will be shelved for the time being, and we will make a decision after Yiqu is defeated."

As soon as King Qin and Chu finished speaking, Lu Buwei and Cai Ze's expressions immediately contrasted sharply.

What Qin Wangchu didn't notice when he made this decision was that there was an unattractive old eunuch standing in a corner of the palace not far behind him, clearly showing the dispute in the hall today It's over, hear me out.

After this big court meeting ended and all the officials dispersed one after another, the old eunuch walked back to the harem with a swift pace that was completely inappropriate for his age, and summoned a chief eunuch in the palace.

"Quickly arrange a car for me, I'm going to Lantian!"

In the view of the old eunuch, only the former Xiangbang of the Qin State who was far away in Lantian could solve the great difficulty before the Qin State.

Chapter 758 The Last Meeting (Second Update)

Hurrying all the way, at dusk two days later, Hou's carriage slowly drove into Yinghou's mansion and stopped in front of the lobby.

With a tired look on his face, Hou got out of the carriage and saw the second son of Fan Sui who was waiting here.

The reason why he is the second son is that Fan Sui's eldest son has been called into Xianyang to become an official after the rebellion started by Yangquan Jun Michen was quelled.

This is of course due to Hou's efforts behind the scenes.

Fan Sui's second son obviously recognized his elder brother's benefactor, so he saluted the old man respectfully.

Hou didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "How is Yinghou's condition now?"

Fan Sui's second son sighed, and said to Hou, "I'm very sick, I'm afraid he may pass away at any time."

"What?" Hou was obviously taken aback.

The last time Hou came to visit Fan Sui, Fan Sui was already sick in bed at that time, unexpectedly it has been so long, and Fan Sui still hasn't improved.

Fan Sui's second son's face was heavy, and he said to the waiter in front of him, "It was fine before winter, but since the beginning of winter, it has become more and more serious. The whole person is often in a coma, and occasionally wakes up for a while, but recently he has been sober. Time is running out.

After listening to these words, Hou's heart slowly sank to the bottom.

You know, as the actual controller of Qin State's secret intelligence organization, Hou is actually very aware of the threat Zhao Guoren posed to Qin State. Not a small lie, so that King Chu of Qin firmly believed what the envoy of Qi State said.

This old eunuch dedicated his life's energy and love to the Great Qin Empire, and wanted to help the Great Qin Empire become stronger and establish a foundation for eternity.

This has become an obsession.

To realize this obsession, Zhao State must be defeated, and Zhao State's annexation of Wei State must be prevented.

But under the current situation, since Qin Wangchu has made a decision, it is naturally impossible for Hou, as a subject, to openly oppose Qin Wangchu's decision.

So in desperation, Houcai thought of Fan Sui again, and wanted to use Fan Sui's wisdom to help him break the situation again.

But Hou never expected that Fan Sui's illness was much worse than before, and now he had already started to fall into a coma, and he couldn't even meet guests.

Fan Sui's second son stood aside and carefully observed Hou's expression, and finally couldn't help asking: "Is what your guest wants to say very important?"

Hou took a deep breath, and said very seriously to Fan Sui's second son in front of him: "To be honest, this matter is related to the life and death of Daqin!"

Fan Sui's second son was taken aback when he heard the words, but he quickly stood up and said: "In this case, please wait here for a while, I will go and ask the doctor to take medicine, maybe it can wake up my father."

After half an hour, Fan Sui's second son finally appeared in front of Hou again, and he was somewhat apologetic when he spoke: "My father is awake, please come with me."

Soon, Hou came to a somewhat dark room.

On the couch in this room, Hou saw Fan Sui lying there at first sight.

Compared with that side last year, Fan Sui at this moment is visibly thinner, with a skinny appearance, lying there motionless.

If it wasn't because there seemed to be a faint light flickering in his eyes, it would even give people the illusion that this might just be a corpse.

Looking at Fan Sui's appearance, Hou Hou couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

If it was said that Fan Sui was pretending to be ill last time, then this time he really couldn't pretend at all.

The man who once dominated the entire continent and made the six countries of Shandong tremble and fear, has now been tortured by the disease to such an extent.

Speaking of which, Fan Sui is almost ten years younger than Hou.

Behind Hou, Fan Sui's second son gently closed the door.

Hou walked up gently, and softly called to Fan Sui who was on the bed: "Ying Hou, Ying Hou?"

After calling a few times, Fan Sui's expression suddenly changed slightly, his eyes moved slowly, and fell on Hou.

The next moment, Fan Sui's dull eyes suddenly glowed with a bit of spirit, and he touched his upper and lower lips with great effort, and said slowly, "What's the matter?"

Looking at Fan Sui's appearance, Hou murmured in his heart, will this work?

But no matter what, now he had no choice but to pin his hopes on this, so Hou cleared his throat and told Fan Sui everything that had happened in the past half a year.

During this period, Fan Sui lay on the bed so quietly, not even moving his eyes. The lights in the room shone on his eyes, causing yellow pupils to dance in his eyes. shine.

It took almost a quarter of an hour, and Hou finally finished everything, and then said to Fan Sui who was lying on the bed with hope, "Ying Hou, from your point of view, how should this situation be?" good?"

Fan Sui didn't move at all, his eyes seemed to be a little distracted, it looked as if his soul had gone to another world, leaving only his body here.

I don't know how long it took, and when I began to wonder whether Fan Sui had fallen asleep or passed out, Fan Sui finally spoke with great difficulty.

This time Fan Sui said two words: "King Zhao."

Hou nodded and said to Fan Sui, "King Zhao is indeed a key figure."

Fan Sui seemed to be in some pain, he took a few short breaths, and suddenly said two words: "Kill."

"Killed?" Hou looked at Fan Sui with some doubts, and it took him a while to realize, with a surprised expression on his face: "Yinghou means that he wants to kill King Zhao?"

Fan Sui heaved a sigh of relief, blinked his eyelids twice, obviously agreeing.
