"Sir, sir let me get closer to General Lian Po, it may be helpful in the future!"

Zhao Dan snorted: "Assuming you are honest, then you tell the widow what you are going to do, think clearly and tell the widow!"

Zhao Yan was taken aback, there was something in the words.

He raised his head and looked into Zhao Dan's eyes, and suddenly his heart stopped, and he said: "I'm going to listen to my master, and I'm going to visit General Lianpo today!"

Zhao Dan was silent for a while, and said: "What is the relationship between you and Guo Kai, everyone in the court knows, Lian Po and Guo Kai have always been at odds, it's not like you don't know, you go to get close to Lian Po? The widow will not stop With you, you can figure it out." After speaking, Zhao Dan got up and left.

After Zhao Dan left for a long time, Zhao Yan raised his head and looked in the direction Zhao Dan left.

Gradually, the frightened expression became gradually indifferent.

I saw him muttering in his mouth: "Mr. told this young master, it's not just that!"

Just now, the feeling Zhao Dan gave him was so similar to last night's dream!

In the side room, Guo Kai asked Su Jie with a serious face, and said: "Sir, you asked Young Master Yan to lurk beside Lian Po and get close to Lian Po, although I don't know what the master wants to do."

"However, in recent days, Lian Po seems to have stayed at home after the court meeting, and anyone who came to visit has been turned away by him. Presumably this old thing has also been clever once."

Su Jie smiled lightly, and said: "Nowadays, the government and the public are all discussing whether it is Lian Po or Zhao Bao, and the wind has already begun to drift in Lian Po's direction."

"But one day is uncertain, and there are variables. With Lian Po's temperament, he naturally dare not be left behind. You must know that the king uses Lian Po because he is a pure-hearted person. He has no party members and the matter is undecided. , then opened the door, what does your majesty think?"

Guo Kai nodded, and said: "Sir, he predicts things like a god, naturally there is nothing wrong, but I can't figure it out, since Lian Po closed the door to thank guests, how can Young Master Yan get close to him, you know, Lian Po knows very well Regarding the relationship between Gongzi Yan and this gentleman, I am not afraid of being laughed at by Mr. Lianpo, and this Lianpo may not like Gongzi Yan."

Su Jie took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Your Majesty, you have heard that you can be strong without desire!"

Guo Kai heard it, and said in his mouth: "If you don't want to be strong?"This language is really philosophical.

Su Jie nodded, and said: "When a person has no desires, maybe no tricks from outside can break him."

"The desire of a country is to be strong and prosperous. Because it wants to be strong, it will launch wars and plunder and conquer. In this way, there will be hatred, and it will face various external attacks. The same is true for people. The king and Lianpo have agreed for many years. The king Do you think Lian Po is eager to have rights?"

When Su Jie said this, Guo Kai immediately understood it.

"Mr. is really a wise word. A word to wake me up, Lian Po, hehe, although this human nature seems simple and honest, but the person who can sit in the position of Zuo Shangqing, is he a simple person? Looking at Lian Po For half his life, he was also fighting for power and profit, but he was never liked by the king."

Su Jie tapped the table with his hand, and said: "That is to say, of course Lian Po wants to be the prime minister, a general who has been unable to make an inch in 30 years, but is famous in the six countries. If you say he doesn't want to, I don't believe it."

"If you think about it, he dares to refuse others, but does he dare to reject Gongzi Yan? Even if he doesn't like it, how can he become a prime minister? How can he distance himself from the prince? You know, the prince is not in the Zhao country now."

A carriage slowly approached in the direction of the palace.

Gongzi Yan didn't bring any entourage, but came to the gate of Lian Po's mansion like an ordinary prince.

He stood at the door for half a moment.

Finally, he stretched out his hand and knocked on the door of Lian Po's mansion.

"dong dong dong"

After a while, the door was opened, and a servant dressed as a servant stared at the young master for a while and said: "The general is not seeing anyone! Please go back, young master." After speaking, he was about to close the door.

Zhao Yan stretched out his hand and said: "Wait a minute, you General Yu Lian said that my son is Zhao Yan, and I have important matters to discuss with you today."

Chapter 83 Lian Po's Disgusted Life

The Gongziqian written before in the book was corrected as Gongziyan

After the servant left, Zhao Yan was left alone to wait at the door for half an hour.

"clang"

The door of Lian Po's mansion was opened again.

Zhao Yan glanced over and saw that Lian Po opened the door himself, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Lian Po Jishou said: "I have kept you waiting for a long time, please come to the mansion to talk." Simple and rude, without any reason, this is Lian Po's consistent style.

Although Zhao Yan had some resentment in his heart, he didn't show it at all.

The two came to the main hall, and Lian Po let Zhao Yanzuo sit at the first place without delaying his speech.

"I don't know what's the matter, you need to come to the old minister's house in person. If you have something to ask, the old minister will do it."

Zhao Yan saw Lian Po's blunt attitude, so he said: "General Lian seems to have some prejudice against me, but I think it is because I am stubborn, and it is inevitable that General Lian and other direct ministers will be misunderstood. The important thing is that I just want to come here to learn from the general."

Lian Po's expression changed, and he said, "Young Master, I'm afraid you have come to the wrong house. Why don't you go to Guo Bushi's place to invite you to come here? This is too absurd."

The corner of Zhao Yan's mouth twitched, thinking that this Lian Po really spoke quickly, without any concealment of affectation.

Zhao Yandao: "General Lianpo knows that the whole Zhao Kingdom is now discussing the new Prime Minister of the Zhao Kingdom, whether it is General Lianpo or Pingyang Lord Zhao Bao, and the court has been arguing for many days. If there is no decision, isn't General Lian Po not eager?"

The corners of Lian Po's mouth twitched, and he said, "Your Majesty, of course you have His Majesty's considerations. As a subject, you will naturally obey Your Majesty's opinion!"

Zhao Yan got up, suddenly sneered and said: "General Lian Po is worthy of being a direct minister of our Zhao country, he is loyal to Zhao country and the king."

Seeing Zhao Yan's words, Lian Po felt that something was wrong, and said, "What do you mean, my lord, could it be that the old minister is still wrong for being sincere to the king?"

"Your Majesty Shangzhong, of course you are right. It's just that I heard that General Lian doesn't seem to care much about Zhao's new chancellor position. I just feel sorry for General Lian."

"Back then, Lin Xiangru was just one of Lai Xian's disciples. After returning to Zhao, he was made a senior doctor. After meeting in Mianchi, he was made a senior minister. His status immediately surpassed that of General Lian, who has outstanding military achievements. Didn't General Lian feel angry?"

Lian Po's expression changed, and he remained silent!

Zhao Yan continued: "Zhao Kuo's father, Zhao She, just because of the battle of Que and Yu, he defeated Hu Shang of the Qin State, made Ma Fujun, and immediately became equal to the general. Did the general forget it?"

Zhao Yan paused when he said that, he looked away when he saw Lian Po's eyes.

He said in his heart, "Mr.'s words really pierced his heart."

Afterwards, Zhao Yan continued: "We are talking about the Battle of Changping. Bai Qi was in command to attack, but the general was unable to hold out, and the Qin army failed to make a single contribution. As long as the Qin army relaxes, the army can take advantage of the momentum to attack, but the general was temporarily replaced. Zhao Kuo is in command, so I don’t need to say more about the result.”

"After the defeat of Changping, the national strength of Zhao State was empty. Yan State sent 60 troops, 40 of which were led by Su Fu to attack our city of Zhao, and even forced the city of Handan. The king had no choice but to use General Lian. The only remaining 40 Zhao troops in our Zhao State defeated the [-] Yan troops, beheaded their commander, and besieged the capital of King Xiyu of Yan. With such great achievements, the generals are famous in the six countries, but they got nothing."

Lian Po's face turned green and pale, and every word Zhao Yan said seemed to hit his mind heavily.

In Su Jie's eyes, Lian Po was nothing more than Shi Ji plus Zhao's family plus Lian Po's Biography of Lin Xiangru equaled Lian Po's disliked life.

If we continue to follow the course of history, after Zhao Dan died, Lian Po would be taken over by Zhao Yan, and Le Cheng would replace him, and he would be equaled instantly as before!

After that, Lian Po beat Le Cheng and drove him out of the army. He knew that King Zhao would definitely kill him this time, so Lian Po fled to Wei State in fear.

Then according to the law of Lian Po's disliked life, King Zhao will definitely use Lian Po at some point.

Until later when Lian Po went to the state of Chu, King Zhao really wanted to use Lian Po. As a result, Guo Kai paid a lot of money to bribe the envoys, and the story of Lian Po being old and still able to eat came out again.

Does Lian Po have hatred in his heart? There must be. Do you think he is a direct minister, but he knows that King Zhao will kill him, so he fled from Zhao State.

Lian Po's dark complexion seemed to be scalded with water, without saying a word, he slapped the table heavily with his fist, and let out a long sigh.

Zhao Yan continued: "Yesterday in the palace, the king asked me, who can be my prime minister!"

Lian Po was startled when he heard that, he raised his head and said, "How do you answer, Young Master?"

"I said, in the dynasty, there is only General Lian!"

As soon as Zhao Yan closed his words, Lian Po was a little excited, but quickly covered it up, saying: "Thank you, my lord, for your kind words for the old minister, but Lord Changping is still in Qin State, so forgive me for not being able to repay the old minister!"

Zhao Yan's words today, in Lian Po's view, are just to win over his new face in the future.

Who is Lord Changping? He is the crown prince established by Zhao Dan in the second year of his reign, and he is now a hostage in Qin State!

Lian Po is neither stupid nor smart.

It can be seen from the kings of all dynasties that his talent is very outstanding, but he is destined to have huge weaknesses.

Although Zhao Yan had already learned about Lian Po's attitude from Su Jie, he couldn't help being a little annoyed at Lian Po's words at this moment.

Heart said: "Sure enough, no matter whether it is Junfu or the courtiers, they don't take this young master seriously at all."

Zhao Yan suppressed his anger and said: "General Lian misunderstood, I am not here to let General Lian support me in the court in the future, but in my country of Zhao, there is indeed no one who can be compared with General Lian. Don't you want to see the prosperity of Zhao Guo?"

Lian Po nodded, and said: "Unexpectedly, the young master is also a person with great ambitions, and it is also the luck of Zhao Guo. The old minister has always thought that the young master is the same as Guo Kai. Today, I know that the old minister is wrong. What the young master said today, the old minister is already Bear in mind, it is only about the matter of the crown prince, the old minister is really unable to help, I hope the young master will understand, but if the young master has other orders, the old minister will do his best to help."

When Zhao Yan heard this, he laughed and said: "Since General Lian knows my intentions, I am very fortunate. I know that General Lian has been a soldier all his life, and his military skills are second to none in the seven countries. I don't know whether the general has written a book or not. , if there is, I don’t know if I can study with the general for a period of time, that’s all, there is nothing else to ask for.”

Lian Po was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: "Is this young master Yan really transformed?"

But he quickly said: "There are indeed several volumes of the old minister's art of war in his life. If you really want to learn it, the old minister will order someone to bring it!"

Zhao Yan suddenly stopped Lian Po, and said with a smile: "General Lian, you think highly of me, Zhao Yan. The art of marching is so mysterious and obscure. To tell you the truth, I have read some military books in the palace before. , but completely ignored its meaning, only to realize that the book of war is also a dead thing, if no one teaches it, it is really difficult to understand."

Lian Po nodded and said: "The way of marching is that the right time, the right place, and the harmony between the people, Yin and Yang, and the five elements are mutually restrained. If there is no one to guide them, it is difficult to see the way. What do you mean by this, sir?"

Zhao Yan said: "I think in the future, I will go to the general's mansion every day to study the art of war for two hours. If there is anything I don't understand, I can ask the general for advice. Zhao Yan is very grateful."

Lian Po paused and thought about it.

Seeing that Lian Po remained silent, Zhao Yan continued: "General, Zhao Yan sincerely asks for advice. He really has no other intentions. Even if my father-in-law knows about it, he will definitely praise the general."

Lian Po, at this moment his heart is finally moved, it is a good thing to be able to teach Gongzi Yan, even though he is not a prince, who would talk about learning.

Lian Po said: "Okay, the young master is so open-minded and eager to learn, how can the old minister discourage the young master's desire to learn."

Zhao Yan was overjoyed and said, "Thank you General Lian!"

Zhao Yan drove to Lianpo Mansion today.

The news quickly reached Zhao Dan.

After Zhao Dan heard the news, he said, "Zhao Yan has really gone!"

Lao Xian stood quietly at the side and said: "Young Master is not young anymore, it is normal to have his own thoughts, Your Majesty does not need to worry too much."

Zhao Dan glanced at Lao Xian and said, "The two are still in Lian Po's residence at this time?"

Lao Xian nodded, smiled, and said: "Half an hour after Young Master Yan entered the mansion, he asked Che Fuling to return to the palace, saying that he was staying alone with Lian Po, learning the art of war with him, and saying that from now on, he will go to the palace every day. , will go to study for two hours."

"Oh? Learning the art of war? Hmph, learning the art of war is fake, but it's true to win over Lian Po. It seems that he didn't listen to what the widow said yesterday." Zhao Dan was stunned.

Laoxian said: "Your Majesty, you must be suspicious. If you don't believe it, you can just check it out. It is a good thing to say that Gongzi Yan is really studying with an open mind. It can also prove that General Lian Po is loyal and has no second thoughts."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"Isn't Your Majesty worrying about the new Prime Minister? First, Gongzi Yan and Guo Kaisu have always been friends, and if General Lian can teach Gongzi Yan without second thoughts, it proves that he has the talent of a prime minister."

"Secondly, it doesn't matter whether Young Master Yan moves or not, what matters is whether Lian Po is attracted by Young Master Yan."

"If he has not been wooed, it proves that Lian Po taught Gongzi Yan because of the king, and it can prove that he has never resented the king, and he is still sincere to the king at this time."

"But if he was wooed by Gongzi Yan, it proves that Lian Po has always been resentful, and he was wooed just through some words from Gongzi Yan. This proves that Lian Po cannot be the prime minister."

Zhao Dan nodded and said: "You're right, um, during this period of time, you should send someone to watch Zhao Yan carefully, and I will leave this matter to you to investigate."

Guo Kai said to Su Jie: "Sir, Young Master Yan has arrived at Lian Po's mansion, and successfully persuaded Lian Po to study in his mansion."

Su Jie laughed and said, "If Zhao Dan hadn't been suspicious, would Aneng have distrusted Lian Po for so many years? Lian Po is a direct minister, so naturally he has no second thoughts, but Zhao Yan's performance at this time, in anyone's eyes , but to win over Yu Lianpo, one is intentional and the other is unintentional, do you think Zhao Dan will be worried?"

"Zhao Dan is not sure, so he will definitely send people to investigate, but then he will find out that Lian Po is a loyal minister, and Zhao Yan is also a son who is dedicated to learning!"

"Human nature is like this. Once he realizes that he thinks too much, he will doubt himself. But in the process, Lian Po, who he thought he had no intention of, suddenly supported Zhao Yan because of one incident. What would he think? "

"Your Majesty will never trust Lian Po again!" Guo Kai's eyes lit up.

"Sir, what do you mean?"

"Of course it's about the meeting between the two kings of Qin and Zhao! Could it be that your lord has forgotten the meeting in Mianchi many years ago!"

Chapter 84 Qin Guo Guoshu!Prime Minister Lianpo!

For five days, Zhao Yan would come to Lian Po's mansion at Chen Shi, and humbly ask for some advice on the art of war.

Lian Po was very careful, and didn't talk about anything except the art of war, with an attitude that he had nothing to say to others.

This behavior is naturally placed in the hearts of discerning people.

The hearts that made some people suspend slowly let go.

Even, whenever Lian Po met Zhao Yan, he would bring some people with him. He knew that these people would naturally spread the conversation between the two of them.

If you talk about other people, Zhao Dan might still be suspicious of the reason, but Lian Po doesn't. In the eyes of the king, Lian Po is just a straight minister who speaks without restraint.

Otherwise, it would not be where it is today.

After listening to Lao Xian's report and Lao Xian's analysis, Zhao Dan believed that Lian Po was not attracted by Zhao Yan, and even deliberately alienated.

Zhao Dan nodded and said: "You say Lian Po is simple and straightforward, but sometimes he understands the widow's mind."

Lao Xian laughed and said: "Back then, Lian Po apologized to the King for the sake of the King, which proves that in his heart, he still has his heart for the King."

Zhao Dan nodded, thought for a moment, then picked up the cinnabar pen in his hand, "It seems that it's about time!"
