Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Zhao Kuo's carriage drove in silently, and then the side door of the palace was closed again, as if nothing happened.

Taking care of Zhao Guogong who looked at the dark night in front of him, he was also very emotional.

Although I have been here many times before, it is really the first time to sneak into the palace like this.

I don't know how the Queen Mother would feel if she found out.

After driving into the palace, there was another person beside the coachman. This person didn't speak, but was silently pointing the direction to the coachman.

Finally, after a while, under the direction of this person, the carriage stopped in front of an inconspicuous palace.

Zhao Kuo got out of the carriage, and the visitor walked towards Zhao Kuo silently for a mile, and then led the way ahead.

Zhao Kuo recognized that this person was Zhao Guo's Eunuch Ling, and immediately showed a smile on his face, followed the eunuch Ling unhurriedly, and walked forward.

There were lights in the palace, but it was a little dim.

Zhao Kuo saw at a glance that under the palace lantern, King Zhao, who was not yet an adult, was sitting quietly, with a very serious expression on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhao Kuo bowed to the King of Zhao: "My minister Zhao Kuo has seen the King."

Zhao Wang's eyes fell on Zhao Kuo, and he nodded slowly: "Wu Xinjun, someone told the widow that you would come, and you really came."

Zhao Kuo smiled and said to King Zhao: "If there is anyone in this world who can make my ministers available at any time, then this person must be the king."

After being a politician for so many years, Zhao Kuo has already tempered his face so that he can speak all kinds of nonsense, and there is absolutely no way to see any flaws from his expression.

This is the self-cultivation of a politician.

Zhao Wang looked at Zhao Kuo, and suddenly asked a question that surprised Zhao Kuo.

"Wu Xinjun, do you know?

The queen mother has always been very worried that once you control the military power, it will be detrimental to Da Zhao and the widow.

If the widow suddenly orders someone to kill you here, the queen mother must be very happy to see it. "

This question caused a surprised expression to appear on Zhao Kuo's face.

But soon, Zhao Kuo's expression returned to calm, and he said to King Zhao: "As the saying goes, if the king wants to die, the minister must die. If the king really has decided to kill, then the minister can only wait for death." .”

Zhao Wang's eyes lit up, and he laughed: "It's a good sentence that the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, I like it very much.

Alright, Mr. Pingyang, you can come out now. "

After Zhao Wang's voice fell, Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao walked out of a shadow and appeared in Zhao Kuo's sight.

Zhao Kuo looked at Jun Pingyang in front of him, with a surprised expression on his face again: "It's you?

That's right, but it should be you. "

Lord Pingyang actually has a criminal record. In the past few years, he tried to seize some rights belonging to the Queen Mother through King Zhao.

It seems that Lord Pingyang has made such an attempt for the second time now.

Lord Pingyang glanced behind Zhao Kuo, and suddenly said, "What are you still hesitating about, the eunuch?

You can come out now. "

With a soft sigh, the eunuch of Zhao Guo also appeared in the palace and saluted Zhao Kuo.

"Compared to Wu Xinjun, who is wise and powerful, he has already recognized this old man."

Zhao Kuo smiled slightly, nodded towards Eunuch Ling, then turned to Lord Pingyang and said, "It seems that this is all the power we have right now."

Lord Pingyang said to Zhao Kuo, "Are we not strong enough?"

Zhao Kuo smiled and said: "Whether this power is strong or not depends on what we want to use this power to do and what kind of purpose we want to achieve."

Eunuch Ling sighed, and said slowly: "I don't have any purpose, I just want to be loyal to the king."

Jun Pingyang was the second to speak, and he also said very calmly: "I have been in the position of Si Kou for more than ten years, and I am tired of it, and I want to go further."

If Si Kou goes a step further, then of course only the position of Zhao Guoxiang will be available.

Zhao Kuo turned his attention to King Zhao.

A blush flashed across Zhao Wang's young face, but he still said boldly: "Mother has always felt that the widow is still young all these years, but the widow has enough ability to govern Da Zhao and create a big state for Da Zhao. It's a prosperous age!"

Afterwards, the eyes of the three were all on Zhao Kuo's face, waiting for Zhao Kuo's answer.

Zhao Kuo smiled very calmly, and said to Pingyang Jun: "My goal is also very simple, that is to get rid of Lin Xiangru, who has always been against me, and Le Cheng.

Then, I hope that when I conquer other countries, I can completely let go and do it without worrying about any domestic constraints. "

This time it was the young King Zhao who answered Zhao Kuo.

"Wu Xinjun, there is absolutely no problem with your request. I will definitely support you to wipe out the other six countries after taking office!"

Hearing Zhao Wang's answer, Zhao Kuo laughed happily.

"Then now we can really discuss how to achieve our plan."

Chapter 699 A New Plan (Tenth Change)

Although the alliance was established, the four members of the alliance obviously have different views on how to obtain power.

As the youngest of the four people present, King Zhao had the strongest desire to express himself, so he was the first to speak out his suggestion.

"Maybe we can directly find a way to control the queen mother, and then let the queen order the dismissal of Lord Pingyuan and Lin Xiangru through the queen mother, and then we will be able to win."

Zhao Wang's idea is very simple and direct. The so-called control is actually to capture the Queen Mother Zhao directly, and then naturally he can do whatever he wants.

After hesitating for a while, Mr. Pingyang directly objected, saying: "Your Majesty's suggestion is indeed feasible, but the Queen Mother is actually very careful about this aspect. We can enter the palace city, but we cannot Take control of any troops in Miyagi, so we won't be able to control the Empress Dowager."

Although Mr. Pingyuan's words are very euphemistic, but anyone who is not a fool can understand that Mr. Pingyuan thinks that Zhao Wang's proposal is actually not very feasible.

After Zhao Wang himself came back to his senses, he naturally understood this point, his face blushed slightly, and he said, "Then what should we do?"

Lord Pingyang glanced at Zhao Kuo, and said, "At present, all the troops of Da Zhao are actually under the control of the queen mother, but only the Chi You army under Lord Wu Xin's command is not under the control of the queen mother.

So what the old minister meant was to let Chi Youjun directly find a way to enter the palace, control the Queen Mother and Handan City, and then the big thing will be accomplished! "

Before Zhao Wang could speak, Zhao Kuo immediately expressed his objection on the spot: "No, this matter must not be allowed! Chi You's army is an army loyal to Da Zhao. How could they raise their weapons against the current supreme ruler of Da Zhao? ?”

Zhao Kuo's remarks are of course an excuse. What he really means is that Zhao Kuo has already seen through, and that Pingyang Jun's proposal is actually a trap.

Lord Pingyang seems to want Zhao Kuo to play a major role in this coup, but the problem is that once Zhao Kuo's Chi You army becomes a force that raises the banner of rebellion against the Queen Mother, then in the future King Zhao will be counted as an army. Even after gaining power, he will inevitably be wary of troops with a criminal record like Chi Youjun, and thus he will also be wary of Zhao Kuo and even kill him.

So Zhao Kuo will never be fooled.

After listening to Zhao Kuo's words, Lord Pingyang became unhappy immediately, and said to Zhao Kuo: "Mr. Wu Xin, do you know what we are discussing now?

Are you sure you can make the whole thing work without using the military? "

Jun Pingyang's words were full of gunpowder, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little intense.

Zhao Kuo didn't change his face because of these words of Mr. Pingyang, but calmly glanced at Mr. Pingyang and said, "Mr. Pingyang, maybe you have forgotten what this marquis is best at.

This Marquis is no stranger to calculating others like this. "

King Zhao couldn't bear it any longer, and said: "Okay, Mr. Wu Xin, what kind of plan do you have, tell it now, don't keep it up."

Zhao Kuo smiled very calmly, looked around everyone present and said very calmly: "If you want to succeed this time, then you all plan to come, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to do it.

Of course, if you have a better plan, then I don't mind following your plan. "

As he spoke, Zhao Kuo put on a posture of listening attentively.

After a moment of silence, Lord Pingyang sighed helplessly, and said to Zhao Kuo: "Mr. Wu Xin, you have won.

Tell me your plan, this time the old man will listen to you. "

Mr. Pingyang originally wanted to use Zhao Kuo's power, and by the way, he would cheat Zhao Kuo severely, but Zhao Kuo was not fooled at all.

Since Zhao Kuo was not fooled, Lord Pingyang also lost other ways to control the political power.

Under such circumstances, the initiative has completely fallen into the hands of Zhao Kuo. Even if Lord Pingyang thinks he should control the situation, he can only completely obey Zhao Kuo at this moment.

After Lord Pingyang, Eunuch Ling was also the second to express his position: "Mr. Wu Xin, you just say what you want. No matter what kind of order, I am willing to obey."

This patient would rather not be the former Miao Xian. All he wants to do is to stand on the side of the winner and share the fruits of victory.

Zhao Kuo glanced at the unchanging King Zhao and said, "Your Majesty also needs to obey your minister's orders. I wonder if your Majesty can do it completely?"

Zhao Wang showed a surprised expression on his face. After a few seconds of silence, he nodded slowly and said: "Of course this is possible, but before that, I want to listen to Wu Xinjun's plan carefully."

The subtext of Zhao Wang's words is also very obvious.

As long as Zhao Kuo's plan is reliable enough, and it sounds like he has a high chance of success, King Zhao will abide by it.

If it was the other way around, King Zhao would naturally not obey.

Including nodded, and then spoke.

"My plan is actually very simple. This time we have three key figures to defeat. The first is the Empress Dowager, the second is Pingyang Jun, and the third is Lin Xiangru.

For these three people, we have to divide them into three different parts to solve them.

Next, I will talk about in detail how our three parts should solve them. "

In this way, Zhao Kuo told the three people in front of him the plan he had conceived in his mind in detail.

I talked about this for a long time, and finally stopped when I was a little thirsty even taking care of myself.

"Okay, the whole plan is roughly like this now, if you have any other opinions, you can put them forward now, everyone can refer to it and correct it.

If there is no other opinion, then just follow my plan and go directly to it. "

After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the hall.

After a while, Mr. Pingyang sighed suddenly and said, "Mr. Wu Xin, Mr. Wu Xin, I never thought about it before I met you. It turns out that the art of war can be applied to this realm. I really admire it!"

The young King Zhao also looked at Zhao Kuo with a shocked expression on his face.

This Zhao Wang never expected that the whole plan in Zhao Kuo's mouth was so thorough, it sounded like a perfect fit!After a while, Zhao Wang finally suppressed the shock in his heart, and said with a final word: "Very good, let's follow Wu Xinjun's plan!"

Chapter 700 Analysis of Zhao Kuo, the Rebellious King Zhao (No.11)

After a while, Zhao Kuo and Pingyang Jun left one after another, leaving only Eunuch Ling and Zhao Wang in the hall.

Sitting in the carriage, Zhao Kuo drove out of Miyagi without any danger along the way, and returned to his mansion.

At this time, Zhao Kuo's cronies were naturally still anxiously waiting for Zhao Kuo's news in the mansion, and they were also relieved to see Zhao Kuo's safe return.

Zhao Kuo called several cronies into the study, and told them everything about tonight.

After hearing what Zhao Kuo said, these cronies were all amazed.

Xu Li couldn't help but said: "I always thought that Lord Pingyang was actually on the same side as Lord Heyuan. I never thought that he would betray the alliance of Lord Heyuan for decades on this matter. Standing in another direction."

Zhao Kuo responded with a smile.

In fact, Lord Pingyang's betrayal can be seen from when Lord Pingyang quietly manipulated King Zhao before.

To put it bluntly, this Lord Pingyang has been suppressed by Lord Pingyuan all his life.

In the past, it might have been said that relying on the advantage of age, he waited for Mr. Pingyuan to die first and then take over the position of Xiangbang. However, year after year has passed, and now Mr. Pingyang is over 50 years old. It is possible to die.

This completely changed his mentality, and he couldn't wait any longer.

To put it bluntly, even if Mr. Pingyang takes over Xiang Ban now, he doesn't know if he can catch up with him in five or six years, let alone waiting for the news of Mr. Pingyuan's passing away.

So Pingyang Jun's betrayal seemed unexpected, but in fact it was taken for granted.

Li Mu was very surprised and said: "Pingyang Lord's betrayal, if it is for the position of prime minister, then why did the king betray the queen mother?

We must know that the king only needs to wait for a few years with peace of mind, won't he be able to sit in court and listen to the government in a stable manner? "

This question also aroused the resonance of several other confidants, and everyone was very surprised by Zhao Wang's sudden betrayal.

In fact, without Zhao Wang's betrayal, Zhao Kuo's situation this time would have been much more troublesome.

In this regard, Zhao Kuo also smiled and said a very simple term.

"Our great king is just in a rebellious period right now."

The rebellious period, this is a period that everyone will inevitably experience in the process of growing up. During this period, teenagers and girls often question the decisions and authority of their parents, and even choose to control their decisions and authority. mount a strong resistance.

Since the previous King Zhao died early, the Queen Mother also took over the important task of educating and raising the current King Zhao.

To put it bluntly, the young Zhao Wang grew up in a single-parent family. In addition, he is a king, and everyone around him obeys him, but only his mother has always been honest with him. The constant reprimand and lessons are just to make Zhao Wang want to grow up as soon as possible.

King Zhao, who grew up in such an environment, must have stronger rebellious emotions in his mind than all other people who grew up normally.
