Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Faced with Chun Shenjun's praise, Zhao Kuo naturally accepted it calmly, and then warned: "It's just that if this twitter order is implemented, the three major families will inevitably have a very crazy counterattack, and may even cause a mutiny. Shen Jun, you and King Chu must be mentally prepared."

The three big families are not stupid, maybe those sons who can get the fief will support the Tweet Order, but the patriarchs like Jingyang, Zhao Zhong, and Qu Feng must be able to see at a glance that the Tweet Order is to dig out their three major families. The roots of the family will definitely do their best to oppose it.

The reason why Emperor Wu of the Han issued the Tweet Order at that time was that there was no disturbance, because his father, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, had already suppressed a wave of "Seven Kingdoms Rebellion" initiated by the local princes, so the central government of Emperor Wu of the Han was very powerful against the princes. Absolutely crushing, the princes naturally dare not make mistakes, and the situation is different from the current state of Chu.

Chun Shenjun nodded, and said with a smile: "Naturally, I'm not stupid, how could I repeat the mistakes of Wu Qi?"

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "That's true. The Marquis is wise all over the world, and this Marquis has always known about it. Otherwise, how could he become close friends with the Marquis and continue to reiterate the friendship between Zhao and Chu?"

After Zhao Kuo said this, Chun Shenjun's expression suddenly became strange, he hesitated to speak.

Zhao Kuo suddenly realized something was wrong, and asked in a heartbeat, "Chunshen Jun, what's the matter?"

Chun Shenjun gritted his teeth and said, "Since Wu Xinjun has done me such a great favor, if I don't do something in return, I'm afraid I will be looked down upon by the people of the world! To tell you the truth, Wu Xinjun, the envoy of Qi State came secretly before. Da Chu, I want to reach an agreement with Da Chu to jointly attack Zhao in secret!"

Zhao Kuo's face changed, and he thought it was this.

As for the sending of envoys by the State of Qi, both Zhao State's intelligence department and Zhao Kuo's own Nightingale had already detected it, so it was not really news.

But it would be good if we could know Chu State's attitude towards this matter from Chunshen Jun, so Zhao Kuo asked, "I don't know what the King Chu's attitude is towards this?"

Chunshen Jun's face changed slightly, and he said with some embarrassment: "To tell the truth, Wu Xinjun, although the old man has tried his best to persuade my king, Da Chu has suffered too many defeats these years, so my king has decided Choose neutrality in this war, neither side will help each other."

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "This is already very good. As long as the Zhao-Chu alliance is still there, we will have many opportunities to join forces in the future."

Having said that, Zhao Kuo actually felt a little disapproving.

I thought Mr. Chunshen could reveal some big secret, but after talking for a long time, that's all?

Chunshen Jun coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "Not only that, the envoy of Qi State also said another thing, that is, both Han and Wei have decided to join Qi State and plan to launch a war against your Zhao State next year. Already!"

Zhao Kuo's expression finally changed.

Although both Zhao Kuo and Zhao Guo have huge intelligence agencies, it is obviously still beyond their capabilities to fully understand the true thoughts of the monarchs of Korea and Wei.

It is really a surprise to get information from Mr. Chunshen now.

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath and held Chunshenjun's hand: "Chunshenjun, it is indeed a pleasure to be friends with you!"

Chun Shenjun smiled slightly, and said seriously: "I also think that having Lord Wu Xin as a friend is indeed enough!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

After a while, Zhao Kuo left the palace of King Chu in a carriage.

The carriage was swaying, but Zhao Kuo's expression was very calm.

After a while, Zhao Kuo said to Xu Li who did not know when he appeared in the carriage: "Uncle Xu, immediately send all the information about the kings of Korea and Wei, as well as Mr. Xinling and other important figures of the Korean and Wei envoys. All of them have been called out, and the Marquis must look them up immediately after returning to the mansion! Also, after returning to the mansion, let Li Si, Li Mu, Han Fei and others come to the Marquis's study immediately, and say that there is an extremely important matter to discuss!"

That night, the lights in Zhao Kuo's study were kept on until it was about to dawn before it went dark.

The next day, Zhao Kuo entered the palace to see the Queen Mother of Zhao.

"I have seen the Queen Mother!"

In the main hall, Zhao Kuo saluted the Queen Mother.

The queen mother looked at Zhao Kuo with a complicated expression in her phoenix eyes.

For the Empress Dowager, Zhao Kuo is a man who has made her sleepless for many nights, but at the same time, the Empress Dowager is very clear that Zhao Kuo is now the giant pillar of Zhao Guo who cannot leave at all!With contradictory and strange thoughts, the queen mother said calmly: "Mr. Wu Xin need not be too polite.

You received the King of Chu and his party yesterday, but what happened? "

The queen mother thought it was a routine report, but the next moment she knew she was wrong.

Zhao Kuo said: "Back to the Queen Mother, when I received the King of Chu yesterday, I accidentally learned a piece of news from Lord Chunshen.

After thinking about it all night, the minister felt that the matter was of great importance and he had to report it to the Queen Mother. "

The Empress Dowager's expression changed slightly, and she said, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Kuo said: "According to Mr. Chunshen, the King of Chu decided to keep Chu State neutral after receiving the envoys from the State of Qi. Great Zhao goes to war!"

The Empress Dowager's face instantly turned pale.

The next moment, the queen mother's roar sounded in the hall.

"Decree of the eunuch, quickly call all the ministers into the palace to discuss matters!"

Half an hour later, all Zhao Guo's important officials arrived and learned the important news.

"The two countries of Han and Wei betrayed Zhao and joined Qi?"

This news made everyone's faces very solemn.

Mr. Pingyuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, we must find a way, otherwise, if war breaks out next year, it will be too late!"

The combined strength of the four countries of Qi, Yan, Han, and Wei is definitely more than that of Zhao, and then Qin may also take advantage of the fire, but Zhao's only ally, Chu, chooses to be neutral.

This is truly the world's enemy!The queen mother said coldly: "King Han and King Wei, these two wolfish ambitions, seem to be so docile to Da Zhao on the surface, and they even came to participate in this alliance meeting of Da Zhao. Teaming up is really hateful!"

The Queen Mother was really mad. She originally thought that the three allies of Han, Wei, and Chu in Zhao State were as stable as Mount Tai, but she never expected that Zhao State had already become a lonely family!After calming down, the queen mother looked at Zhao Kuo: "Wu Xinjun, what can you do?"

Chapter 505 Zhao Kuo’s Way to Break the Game (Second Change)

Although very apprehensive, what the queen mother had to admit was that the ideas put forward by Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo were very useful many times.

Moreover, this matter itself was discovered by Zhao Kuo when he was in contact with the monarch and ministers of Chu State. As the party concerned, Zhao Kuo may have better ideas, which is also human nature.

Sure enough, Zhao Kuo did not disappoint the queen mother, and immediately said: "Queen mother, after I returned to the mansion, I called my staff and staff, and after some analysis, I did have some ideas."

The queen mother hurriedly said: "Hurry up and tell me!"

On the other side, Lin Xiangru frowned slightly as he watched this scene.

The queen mother's trust in Zhao Kuo was obviously very dazzling in Lin Xiangru's eyes.

But there is no way, who made Lin Xiangru's teammate Yu Xin, Lian Po or Le Cheng all be pig teammates?

Every day to mess things up, Lin Xiangru asked himself that if he changed places with the queen mother, he would really have to rely on Zhao Kuo's opinion.

So Lin Xiangru was very helpless, and decided to wait and see what happened, first to see what Zhao Kuo said.

Zhao Kuo said: "Queen Mother, in fact, I feel that the two countries of Korea and Wei may not necessarily fall to the Qi State sincerely, and there should still be room for competition."

The Empress Dowager's eyes suddenly showed hope, and she said: "How to fight for it?"

Zhao Kuo, who had a night of preparation, talked eloquently: "Han and Wei are not one, so we need to analyze specific countries.

Let’s talk about the state of Wei first. In the past wars, the state of Wei was captured by Da Zhao. The country’s hatred for Da Zhao is quite high.

Now the reason why Wei Guo still participates in this meeting is only because Qi Guo didn't send troops, so Wei Guo didn't have the courage to disobey Da Zhao.

If Qi State really sends troops, Wei State should immediately betray Da Zhao! "

Hearing this, the empress dowager couldn't hide the anger at all, and shouted: "The king of Wei dares! Why don't we just imprison him in Handan!"

The queen mother is also a ruthless person, and immediately thought of the methods Qin Zhaowang Yingji used back then.

Zhao Kuo hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, this matter must not be done! The Qin State imprisoned King Huai of Chu back then, causing the world's scholars to renounce. If Da Zhao did the same, wouldn't it be a repeat of the Qin State's mistakes?"

Ying Ji imprisoned King Huai of Chu in Qin State until his death. This has always been criticized by the people of the world, and it also made Qin State's reputation among other vassal states extremely bad.

Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Kuo to agree to such an approach that completely violates international morality, has no fairness at all, and will worsen Zhao's reputation.

Fame seems to be an illusory thing, but it is the same as people's will. You may not be able to see it, but you will always feel its great effect.

Looking back at history, why did large-scale riots break out in the homeland of the six eastern countries immediately after the death of Qin Shihuang?

On the one hand, it is because Qin II did go against the law, but another very important reason is that Qin’s rule was indeed brutal, and Qin’s reputation was indeed bad, which caused the conquered people of the six countries to always want to recover. The old land should not be a native of Qin.

As Zhao Kuo will lead Zhao Guo to rule the world in the future, Zhao Guo's reputation naturally needs to be paid attention to in advance.

Zhao Kuo's objection immediately calmed the Queen Mother a lot, and said, "Then what can Mr. Wu Xin do?"

Zhao Kuo said: "What I want to say is that although Wei is not good, there is still South Korea."

The queen mother said: "Could it be that Wu Xinjun meant to win over South Korea?"

Zhao Kuo nodded and continued to talk: "My queen, please think about it. In the past few years, Da Zhao and South Korea did not have much friction or war. On the contrary, Da Zhao also helped South Korea recover Yiyang. The relationship between the two countries not bad.

Moreover, South Korea is still your mother's family, the Queen Mother. The blood relationship between King Han and you is well known in the world, and the two countries are naturally very close.

The biggest opponent South Korea has always faced is Qin, and Da Zhao’s repeated wars against Qin over the years have actually shared a lot of pressure on South Korea. As long as the Koreans are not stupid, they will hope that Da Zhao will continue to confront Qin, and will not I hope that Da Zhao will decline.

If South Korea can join Da Zhao, even if Zhao Han faces the Three Kingdoms of Yan and Wei, I feel that Da Zhao's hope of victory is actually quite high.

The minister recommended Pang Nuan, a great traveler, to persuade Han Wang, and he will definitely let Han join Da Zhao's side! "

This is the result that Zhao Kuo gathered a lot of information about Nightingale with many of his confidants last night and discussed it all night.

It sounds very simple, isn't it just to win over South Korea, a country that can be won over by Zhao Guo?

But in reality, if we want to do this, we must make an extremely accurate judgment on South Korea's international situation, the psychology of South Korea's monarchs and ministers, and South Korea's actual interests.

If people can be persuaded casually, then how can political strategists like Su Qin and Zhang Yi in the history books be able to last forever and be praised by later generations?

Together vertically and horizontally, broad and profound!After listening to the Queen Mother, her face finally calmed down, obviously she had let go of her heart a lot.

"Very good, if this is the case, then Pang Qing, you should go to King Han's palace again, explain the benefits and disadvantages to King Han, and let Han change from evil to righteousness!"

This court meeting is over.

Outside the main hall, Le Cheng caught up with Lin Xiangru and said, "Xinjun, why don't we do nothing?"

Lin Xiangru showed a helpless expression, and said: "Da Sima, I just found out about this matter, and Lord Wu Xin came prepared, what can I do in a while?"

Le Cheng snorted, and said in an extremely displeased voice: "But when I think of being done by Pang Nuan, I feel uncomfortable!"

After all, Le Cheng and Pang Nuan are competitors. Although Le Cheng overwhelmed Pang Nuan in the competition of Da Sima, it is even more famous that Pang Nuan used the academy to slap Le Cheng in the face with the help of Zhao Kuo. In the world, Le Cheng also hated Pang Nuan in his heart.

Lin Xiangru looked calmly at Zhao Kuo and Pang Nuan who were walking side by side a few meters away, and said with a faint smile, "Dear Sima, in this political arena, you can't compete for a moment, be patient.

What's more, who said that Pang Qing would be able to persuade King Han? "

Pang Nuan was worried, and said to Zhao Kuo: "Wu Xinjun, I don't know much about King Han, so how can I convince King Han?"

Zhao Kuo laughed, and said confidently: "Pang Qing, don't worry, come, get in the car with Benhou, and Benhou will teach you slowly!"

Almost at the same time, in the palace of King Wei outside the palace city, Lord Xinling Wei Wuji happily walked into the main hall of the palace, and said to King Wei: "Your Majesty, I want to report good news to you. I just persuaded you King Han, he has agreed to join Qi and Wei in next year's war!"

Chapter 506 Convincing the King of Han ([-]rd update)

After hearing Lord Xinling's words, King Wei was immediately overjoyed: "Really?"

Lord Xinling resolutely said: "Your Majesty is joking, how can I have any reason to deceive Your Majesty?

Wait until next spring, Your Majesty will be able to watch Zhao Guo being besieged by the princes of the world, and let out such a bad breath! "

Lord Xinling is indeed worthy of being a well-known virtuous minister in the world. He tried his best to state the pros and cons of all kinds and finally moved King Han, who agreed to join the alliance of the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei, and Yan.

Wei Guojun and his ministers looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

King Wei said solemnly: "If we really wait until Handan City is destroyed, the first thing I will do is to beat Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo to ashes, so as to eliminate the hatred in my heart!"

Lord Xinling nodded repeatedly, and said: "Lord Wu Xin, Zhao Kuo, has caused countless disasters to the Great Wei and plundered an unknown amount of Wei's land, and I have already wanted to get rid of this beast! Then again, after all, the whole matter still needs to be kept secret, please don’t let the people of Zhao Guo notice it in the next meeting.”

Wei Wang clapped his hands and laughed: "We already know that Zhao Guo will be in great trouble next year, so what's the harm in putting up with the Queen Mother Zhao and Zhao Kuo once?"

King Wei was in a good mood, and King Han was also in a good mood.

At this moment, King Han is drinking happily.

Accompanying King Han is the current South Korean Minister Huayang Jun Feng Ting. This important South Korean minister had the experience of serving as an official in the State of Zhao, so he knew the State of Zhao quite well, so King Han brought him here.

Because he wanted to say something from his heart, King Han didn't let musicians, dancers, attendants and other people present, only King Han and Feng Ting.

King Han smiled and said, "Mr. Huayang, this time Wei Guo made a huge concession in order to reach an agreement. If Daehan can obtain Shangdang and Hedong in the future, why not restore the glory of Jin?"

It turns out that in order to attract South Korea to join, Mr. Xinling did not hesitate to throw out a very moving condition. After defeating Zhao Guo, Zhao Guodong County and Shangdang County are all owned by South Korea!Hadong County was the headquarters of the Jin State back then. The predecessor of Korea, the Han family, was a courtier of the Jin State. When Korea was first established, the capital was also Pingyang City in the northeast of Hadong County.

Not to mention Shangdang County, which has always been the territory of South Korea and was not lost until the Battle of Changping a few years ago.

If these two counties can be obtained, the land area of ​​South Korea will more than double in an instant, and the population will also double, and it will definitely become a powerful country among the Seven Heroes!Still the same sentence, which monarch does not have a dream of expanding the territory and dominating the world?

Feng Ting is obviously not so optimistic about King Han's confidence.

The minister of the Yan Kingdom couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, the Zhao Kingdom is probably not so easily defeated, is it?"

Han Wang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "If the power of the four countries cannot defeat Zhao, how can it be possible?

Don't worry, the widow has his own measure. "

Feng Ting still wanted to continue talking, but at this moment a report came from outside: "Your Majesty, Pang Nuan, a member of the Zhao Kingdom, is begging to see you!"
