Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Zhao Wang's face darkened, and he said coldly: "So, the rumor that Zhao Kuo said was actually done by you?"

Yu Xin's face was so pale that he kowtowed to plead guilty, and dared not say a word.

Zhao Wang shook his head and sighed: "About this matter, in fact, the widow has just investigated clearly.

The 18 generals, thousands of officers, and personal guards all said with one voice that the entire Changping battle was indeed won because of Zhao Kuo's wise command, and Lian Po was just a mere lieutenant general.

Whether Changping has Lian Po or not has no influence on the victory of the war at all!Yu Qing, oh Yu Qing, you have deceived even the widow this time! "

Yu Xin's face instantly turned pale, and he couldn't speak a word.

Looking at Yu Xin whose forehead was already bleeding, making his face covered with blood, Wang Zhao hesitated for a while, and then sighed: "Go down, shut your door and think for a while.

Remember, don't bother Zhao Kuo again until the widow agrees. "

Yu Xin was amnesty, thanked King Zhao and left in a hurry.

After Yu Xin left, the figure of the eunuch Ling Miao Xian slowly appeared. The old eunuch was obviously a little puzzled, and asked, "Your Majesty, this Yu Xin has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and he has colluded with foreign ministers to suppress Zhao Kuo, a hero of the country. , Why did Your Majesty let him go so easily?"

Zhao Wang took a deep breath and said: "Yu Xin is the only important minister who has been promoted since the widow took over the government. If the widow dismisses him, wouldn't it mean that the widow will cut his own authority?

This person is also considered loyal, and he has learned his lesson after going through these things. If something happens again in the future, it will not be too late to punish him at that time. "

Miao Xian said: "If so, I'm afraid Zhao Kuo will not accept it."

King Zhao snorted and said, "What does it matter if he accepts it or not?

He wiped out 30 Qin troops in the first battle, and achieved brilliant feats that no number of generals could achieve in their lifetime.

But for the widow, there are advantages and disadvantages to this matter. Although Yuxin has everything wrong, there is one sentence that is right, that is, if the widow continues to use Zhao Kuo, sooner or later Zhao Kuo will be as powerful as Bai Qi host!Bai Qi is already old, but Zhao Kuo is only 25 years old. In short, let's suppress Zhao Kuo first. "

Miao Xian hesitated to speak, and after a moment of silence, he slowly retreated into the darkness.

Chapter 49 Zhao Kuo's Big Marriage

The Handan League is over.

If it is said that at the beginning, what everyone talked about was the fact that the monarchs of the five countries came to meet the King of Zhao, and the power of the Zhao Kingdom reached its peak, then after the alliance ended, everyone's focus changed.

Zhao Kuo was angry with Lord Xinling and kicked the conflict between the monarch and his ministers of Wei.

Zhao Kuo was angry with an unknown Zhao minister and warned the minister not to spread rumors.

Will Zhao Kuo become the commander-in-chief of the upcoming six-nation coalition against Qin?

All the concerns are related to Zhao Kuo.

There is no doubt that after this alliance, Zhao Kuo's reputation in the eyes of countless people in the world will rise again.

Originally, many people thought that Zhao Kuo was just a guy who knew how to fight, but now they discovered that Zhao Kuo not only knew how to fight, but also had a sharp eloquence.The rumors in Handan City also quickly subsided, and no one was bragging about "Lian Po was the hero behind the battle of Changping, and Zhao Kuo was just a puppet like King Qin".

According to Zhao Kuo's character, he originally wanted to attack immediately and find a way to teach Yu Xin a painful lesson, but another matter held Zhao Kuo back.

Zhao Kuo is getting married!On the third day after the Handan League ended, Zhao Kuo's wedding was officially held.

There are seven steps in the wedding, and what is being held now is the most solemn step to welcome the relatives!Early in the morning, Zhao Kuo was pulled up and dressed up surrounded by a large group of people under the supervision of his mother.

Today Zhao Kuo is wearing Xuanduan, which is a very formal dress, which is usually worn on formal occasions such as going to court, offering sacrifices, and weddings.

Xuanduan clothes are made of upper and lower garments. Xuanyi is made of summer cloth fifteen liters, with a width of two feet and two inches. Because the cloth width in ancient times was narrow, only two feet and two inches per week, each piece of cloth is square, straight and square. , so it is called end.

Xuan is black, that is, black. If you look closely, you will feel that there seems to be a hint of red in the black. Zhao Kuo is wearing such a black and slightly red Xuanduan suit today.

In addition to Xuanduan clothes, there are also lower body curtains. The style of the curtains is also particular, and the requirements are the first three and the last four.

Then there is the crown. Today, Zhao Kuo wears the Xuan crown, also known as Weimao crown. "Wei" means stability, and "appearance" means righteousness.

The top is small and the bottom is big, seven inches long and four inches high. It looks like a large rectangular cup held upside down on its head. After a while, Zhao Kuo boarded the carriage and led a mighty army. The team went out of Miyagi to meet the bride.

The destination for welcoming the relatives has already been decided, of course it is the post where Tian Wan is located where Zhao Kuo often goes.

Sitting in the carriage, Zhao Kuo saw that the left and right entourage were all in black, there was no red at all, there was no noise of gongs and drums, and there was no sound of firecrackers. The whole team just walked forward silently.

Well, a team composed of hundreds of men in black, the scene was silent. Zhao Kuo pinched his chin, always feeling that something was wrong.

Why is it a bit like the funeral scene in later TV dramas?

Soon, the welcoming team arrived at their destination.

Zhao Kuo got off the carriage, and the Prime Minister of Qi State Empress Sheng came forward to meet him: "Zhao Qing!"

Zhao Kuo greeted each other with a smile: "Houqing."

After Hou Sheng welcomed Zhao Kuo, he bowed to the west twice.

Zhao Kuo smiled at Hou Sheng, remembering the instructions of the ceremony officer specially sent by the palace, he also bowed eastward twice.

Hou Sheng made another bow to Zhao Kuo, followed by a "please" gesture.

Zhao Kuo stepped into the gate of the camp, holding a live wild goose tightly tied up in his hand.

There is a temple behind the gate.

small temple.

Zhao Kuo walked up to him, met Hou Sheng's eyes, and bowed to each other at the same time.

Take two more steps and bow to each other.

They bowed to each other three times, and then passed the temple.

Behind the temple is a hall.

There are steps under the hall.

Zhao Kuo and Hou Sheng walked up to the steps and said, "Please, Hou Qing."

"Please Zhao Qing."

"Your Honor please."

So again and again.

Hou Sheng climbed the steps first, followed by Zhao Kuo.

There is only one west-facing seat in the lobby, and Qi Wang Tianjian is sitting in this seat.

In addition, there were some people standing on both sides of the hall, all of whom belonged to the ministers of Qi State brought by King Qi, that is, Tian Wan's natal family.

And there is also a person standing on the left side of the seat, this is Zhao Kuo's bride Tian Wan.

Today's Tian Wanzhu with thin lips and thin makeup is also dressed in black clothes. She is extremely dignified and beautiful. She looks at Zhao Kuo with her big eyes flickeringly. When she sees Zhao Kuo's gaze, she immediately dodges like a frightened bird. After a while, two blushes appeared on her fair cheeks.

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath and suddenly felt a little drunk.

My wife is so beautiful!Zhao Kuo identified the direction left and right, put the live goose in his hand on the ground, then turned around and bowed to the north.

Two bows, kowtow to the ground.

Hou Sheng led all the Qi people present to bow to Zhao Kuo in return. Qi Wang Tianjian sat on the ground and bowed his hands in return.

After Zhao Kuo finished prostrating, he stood up and walked down the hall.

Hou Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at King Qi.

King Qi nodded, glanced at Tian Wan, and sighed: "Go, from now on, serve your husband well."

At this moment, King Qi, as an uncle, was also in a very complicated mood.

Tian Wan nodded silently, and followed Zhao Kuo.

After the two left the hall, hundreds of servants and maidservants appeared from the side of the hall and followed them, all of which belonged to Tian Wan's "dowry".

After a while, Zhao Kuo took Tian Wan to the gate of the camp, where a carriage was already waiting.

Before Zhao Kuo came to the carriage, he took the lead rope in his hand, turned around and smiled at Tian Wan behind him: "Madam, please."

Although she had already been mentally prepared, Tian Wan blushed and said in a low voice, "Thank you husband."

Tian Wan lightly moved her lotus steps, and slowly boarded the carriage.

The female officer Wan'er followed Tian Wan into the carriage.

Zhao Kuo handed the lead rope to Tian Wan.

The female officer Wan'er who was standing beside Tian Wan took the rope and said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord."

Zhao Kuo nodded, turned and returned to his carriage.

The convoy started to set off slowly, heading towards the Zhao Mansion like a long black dragon.

This is a very typical ancient wedding in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The time was calculated very accurately, and when he returned to the palace city, it was dusk.

The "Hunting Ceremony" has officially begun.

So far, the sixth step of welcoming is over.

The next step is the seventh step of cooperating together.

To put it simply, two couples eat and drink together.

But there are also very detailed regulations on how to eat, how to drink, and how to arrange food.

Mr. Pingyuan is in charge of being the praiser of this step.

After a bunch of extremely tedious ceremonies, the sky was completely dark.

After completing all the steps, Zhao Sheng smiled meaningfully at Zhao Kuo, patted Zhao Kuo's shoulder vigorously, got up and walked out of the new house.

Only Zhao Kuo and Tian Wan were left in the room.

Looking at Tian Wan who bowed her head in shame, Zhao Kuo's heart fluttered, and she took Tian Wan's hand: "Ma'am, let's rest."

Tian Wan was so ashamed that she couldn't help pushing Zhao Kuo, and said in a low voice, "I still have to sue the temple."

Telling the temple is a step after the wedding is completed.

To put it simply, newlyweds cannot have intercourse within three months. This intercourse not only refers to certain sports on the bed, but also sleeps in the same room.

The reason for this is to guard against the bride's fornication and pregnancy with others before the wedding.

Three months of reporting time is enough to tell if you are pregnant.

Such a delicate and ready-to-drop flower was placed in front of him, but he had to wait three months before he could pick it.

How does this work?

Zhao Kuo smiled and blew out the candle.

"Ma'am, the old men and women have the final say on other matters, but this matter, of course, is for the husband to have the final say!"

It was an evening destined to be very sweet.

Chapter 50 It's Not Fair

The next day, a refreshed Zhao Kuo took his new wife to visit his mother.

Zhao's mother was very happy, she grabbed Tian Wan's hand and shed tears: "Okay, okay, okay."

After the death of Ma Fujun and Zhao She, Zhao’s mother actually undertook tremendous pressure. Fortunately, these pressures have completely disappeared with Zhao Kuo’s struggle. wish.

Mother Zhao is already extremely satisfied with Zhao Kuo's son, and even began to wonder if she had been bewitched before, thinking that Zhao Kuo would not be able to win the Battle of Changping.

In this regard, Zhao Kuo naturally laughed it off.

Because of the marriage, Zhao Kuo got a seven-day vacation. Originally, Zhao Kuo planned to work hard to see if he could get a little Zhao Kuo out as soon as possible, but as the saying goes, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, things still come to them quickly.

On the third day after the marriage, Mr. Ping Yuan, who was the officiant, came to visit.

"Zhao Qing, I heard that you have been very busy these two days. Did you eat more ginseng?"

Seeing Mr. Pingyuan's teasing expression, Zhao Kuo smiled and pushed his chest hard: "Your Honor, Zhao Kuo is still young, why do you need that kind of thing?"

Mr. Pingyuan laughed dumbly, and said, "You, when you reach my age, you will know the benefits of ginseng."

Zhao Kuo hesitated for a moment, but still reminded: "Your Honor, although ginseng is a great tonic, but the so-called excess is too much, you can't eat it every day."

Mr. Pingyuan waved his hand indifferently, and said: "Understood, none of the doctors in this Marquis' mansion are as verbose as you.

By the way, today the Marquis is actually here on behalf of the king. "

Zhao Kuo looked at Mr. Pingyuan in surprise: "Your Majesty?"
