Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Chapter 749 Fan Sui's Poisonous Scheme (Fourth)

Two hours ago, the main hall of King Qin Palace in Xianyang.

The king of Qin was a little excited, and smiled at the ministers of the state of Qin in front of him: "Everyone, the news just came back that Zhao Kuo, the king of Zhao Guowu, has been confronting the king of Yan Guochang for more than half a month. No progress!"

If Qin Guo were to choose the country and person he hated the most, it would definitely be Zhao Guo and Zhao Kuo.

It was only one person from this country that caused Qin to fall from its original peak, from the original number one power in China to a second-rate country today!Therefore, when he heard the news that Zhao Kuo's war was unfavorable, King Qin was very happy.

Not only the King of Qin, but other ministers of Qin State in the hall also showed smiles on their faces when they heard the news.

Qin Guoxiang Bang Fan Sui smiled and said: "It's really great, I really hope to hear the news of Zhao Kuo's defeat as soon as possible!"

Ying Zichu, Crown Prince of Qin, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm afraid this is still a bit difficult. For a country like Yan, it would be very difficult to defeat Zhao Kuo, or even delay Zhao Kuo for a while, right?"

Undoubtedly, Ying Zichu's words were not very pleasing to the ear, and the hall immediately became cold.

King Qin looked at Ying Zichu, and suddenly felt the urge to slap Ying Zichu.

Is that what you would say?

Doesn't the widow know that the Yan people have a low chance of winning?

The widow taunted Zhao Guo for a few words, it’s not good to be happy, you have to come here to pour cold water?

Simply a rebellious son!Ying Zichu also seemed to be aware of his slip of the tongue, and he lowered his head embarrassingly, not daring to speak again.

Fan Sui's eyes suddenly brightened, and he said with a smile, "My lord, maybe it's time for our Great Qin to act."

After Fan Sui finished speaking, Lu Buwei immediately raised his head like a conditioned reflex.

If it was said who Lu Buwei was most wary of in the Qin Kingdom, then this person was definitely Fan Sui.

The reason is actually very simple, because Fan Sui is the smartest and most seasoned politician in Qin State's political arena.

Without Fan Sui's existence, Lu Buwei thought that he would have already completely brought Qin's political arena under control.

Lu Buwei paid close attention to Fan Sui's every move!King Qin looked at Fan Sui curiously, and after a while he said: "Yinghou, I have actually decided not to take this muddy water before."

Fan Sui nodded and said with a smile: "Of course the old minister is aware of the king's decision, but the old minister is not actually advising the king to send troops to conquer Zhao, because in the old minister's opinion, it is completely unnecessary."

King Qin became a little curious when he heard it, and said, "Since you don't want to send troops to conquer Zhao, what kind of action are you talking about?"

Fan Sui chuckled, and said confidently: "Although we can't teach Zhao Guo a lesson, we can still teach Yiqu Country a lesson!"

"Yiqu Country?"

King Qin was stunned.

Fan Sui smiled and said: "Yes, it is the Yiqu Kingdom.

Since the last time this Yiqu country was independent from Daqin with the support of Zhao Kuo, it has been quite arrogant in recent years. From time to time, some cavalry will be sent to harass the border of our Daqin.

The veteran just got a report not long ago, and about three or four thousand cavalry from the Yiqu Kingdom raided and harassed several counties in the central and northern parts of Daqin Guan.

Your Majesty, please think, since the land of our Great Qin has been harassed, it is only natural for our Great Qin to gather a force to repel the Yiqu invaders, no one can find fault with it, right? "

King Qin obviously understood what Fan Sui meant, but he still couldn't help but said, "But even if this is the case, what does it have to do with Zhao Guo?"

Fan Sui's smile became more intense: "Of course it has something to do with it, my lord, please think about it, why is it so hard to deal with Yiqu country these years, is it because Daqin can't defeat Yiqu?

of course not!Even if Daqin was defeated one after another, it was not something that a small Yiqu could match.

The real reason is that every time Daqin wants to clean up Yiqu, there are always people from Zhao Guo who stop Daqin in a jerky way!So this time, we just need to assume the posture of attacking Yiqu and see how Zhao Guo reacts.

If Zhao Guo chooses to intervene, then we will withdraw our troops immediately, and we will not give Zhao Guo an excuse to start a war with us, so that the troops and supplies assembled by Zhao Guo will be wasted on the border between Qin and Zhao, and we will not be able to go to Yan Guo to support Zhao Kuo in the battle. .

It would be even better if Zhao State did not interfere. Maybe Daqin could seize the opportunity to destroy Yiqu Kingdom in one fell swoop, regain the lost territory, and make Daqin even stronger! "

Hearing this, Qin Crown Prince Ying Zichu couldn't help but said: "Yinghou, your words are simple, but what if the people of Zhao State send troops to attack after we destroy Yiqu Kingdom?"

Fan Sui laughed loudly: "Prince, oh prince, the current international situation is completely different from when Daqin and Zhao were at war.

At that time, Qi State was still the hegemony in the east, Linzi, the capital of Qi State, had not been captured, and the king of Qi had not been captured. The princes of the world felt that even if the Great Qin was defeated, there was still Qi State that could resist Zhao State.

But now?

Now everyone knows that there is probably no country in this world that can withstand Zhao Guo's full attack alone!So, if Zhao Guo really came to attack Yiqu because Yiqu was destroyed by Daqin, wouldn't that be the best opportunity for Daqin to unite with the other five countries to attack Zhao? "

Fan Sui's words were eloquent, but they were so reasonable that even Ying Zichu couldn't refute them.

Ying Zichu subconsciously glanced at Lu Buwei, wanting to get some help from Lu Buwei.

Lu Buwei sighed, but shook his head slightly.

Even Lu Buwei had to admit that from Qin's point of view, Fan Sui's move was really a poisonous plan!As long as Fan Sui's move can be implemented, Zhao Kuo's large number of troops and resources will inevitably be involved in the border between Qin and Zhao, and Zhao Kuo's attack on Yan will inevitably be greatly affected.

Therefore, as soon as Lu Buwei left the palace and returned to the Prince's Mansion, he immediately found Mao Sui and began to arrange this time to poison King Qin.

As long as the king of Qin can be killed, then Qin's action this time will naturally end without a problem.

Once the king of Qin died, the crown prince Yingzi Chu came to power. With the close relationship between Lu Buwei and Yingzi Chu, it would be much easier for Lu Buwei to influence Qin's military and political affairs!Thinking of this, Lu Buwei seemed to be talking to himself, and said to Mao Sui firmly in front of him: "This time, King Qin must die!"

Chapter 750 Spy Qu Zheng (Fifth)

After Lu Buwei's words fell, Mao Sui immediately nodded in agreement.

"To tell you the truth, I have long wanted King Qin to die!"

Mao Sui followed Lu Buwei in Qin State for many years, and he was obviously tired of such a frightening life.

But Mao Sui is also a man of promise, since he promised Zhao Kuo to come to guard this place to watch over Lu Buwei, then Mao Sui naturally had to do his best to complete the task, and come to him to start well and finish well.

But being an undercover agent is an undercover agent, and using conditions to make his undercover career more comfortable, Mao Sui absolutely has no objection.

Killing King Qin will undoubtedly greatly increase Mao Sui's safety.

Why do you say that?

Of course it was because of the Prince of Qin, Yingzi Chu!Today's Ying Zichu, the woman lying next to Lu Buwei's pillow every day is Zhao Ji, who used to be Lu Buwei's concubine, the most trusted military advisor is Lu Buwei, and the most trusted thug is Mao Sui.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ying Zichu is under the control of Lu Buwei and Mao Sui!Once Ying Zichu becomes the King of Qin, then Mao Sui and Lu Buwei will take off instantly and become invincible.

But Mao Sui also knew that it was obviously not that easy to settle this matter: "Mr. Lu, tell me, what exactly are you going to do?"

Lu Buwei's eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly: "It's time to use our dead room in the palace."

Mao Sui's face changed slightly, he was obviously a little bit reluctant, and said: "It took us a lot of effort to arrange for King Qin's side, and he is also one of the most outstanding nightingales!"

Lu Buwei snorted, and said: "I don't want the child to be tied to the wolf. If you don't do this, the situation of Da Zhao and Wu Xinjun will only become worse if Qin Guo sends troops to Yiqu!"

Mao Sui still hesitated, with a hesitant expression on his face.

As the real head of Nightingale's Qin branch, only Mao Sui knew his true identity in that palace.

It was precisely because he knew the true identity and talent of this dead man that Mao Sui seemed so reluctant.

Which one of the undercover agents is not ruthless?

It is really a rare talent.

Seeing that Mao Sui could not make a decision for a long time, Lu Buwei became impatient and said, "Mao Sui, think about it for yourself. The sacrifice of one person can allow us to completely control a country, isn't it enough?"

If you are not even willing to do this, I can only say that you are really not worthy of being Nightingale's spy, let alone the leader of Nightingale's branch! "

Mao Sui's body shook.

After a while, Mao Sui gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, wait for my news."

Qin King's Palace.

A young eunuch hurried towards the palace gate.

Although he was an eunuch, many eunuchs and palace officials greeted him respectfully along the way.

"Hello, my lord."

"My lord is safe."

The eunuch smiled and nodded to the saluting people one by one, showing no airs at all.

After a while, the eunuch came to the palace gate.

In every palace gate of Xianyang Palace, there is a small gate tower, which is generally used by soldiers guarding the city to rest in their shifts in the middle of the night.

It is daytime now, so the place is naturally empty.

The eunuch walked into the gatehouse, looked left and right, and made sure that no one was following him, so he came to an inconspicuous corner, lifted the straw mat on the floor for sleeping, and groped towards a hidden corner under the straw mat. go.

At this moment, a voice sounded: "Don't look for it, I'm here."

The eunuch was taken aback, turned around and saw Mao Sui, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did your lord come here in person?"

Mao Sui sighed, his eyes flickered slightly, and then sighed again: "I came to see you."

The eunuch was thoughtful, and after a while, he said: "So, there is another task?"

Mao Sui nodded and said, "Yes, and it is a very difficult task."

The eunuch smiled and said, "That would be great.

I have been in the palace for several years, and I have been looking forward to this moment all the time. "

Mao Sui was silent for a while, and said, "Qu Zheng, this mission may cost you your life."

The eunuch who was called Qu Zheng laughed and said: "It is definitely an earth-shattering event for Mr. Mao Sui to enter the palace in person regardless of the risk.

If I can lose my life for such a mission, I, Qu Zheng, will be worth it even if I die. "

Mao Sui gritted his teeth, and said: "Your status is special, the Lord actually sent you here." Qu Zheng laughed and interrupted Mao Sui: "I know, when Lord Wu Xin sent me, he actually hoped that I could help Mao Sui. My lord, take care of the Qin State Xianyang Nightingale branch.

But for me, Qu Zheng, what I prefer to do is not to be a hidden mouse, but to be a poisonous snake waiting to attack!That's why I became a eunuch, appeared in this palace city, and became one of the personal eunuchs of King Qin after several years of conscientious and careful service.

die?

From the moment I joined Nightingale, I have already put life and death aside! "

Looking at Qu Zheng with a calm face, Mao Sui's expression became more and more complicated, and after a while he asked: "Is revenge really that important to you?

Do you really stop thinking about it? "

Qu Zheng shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I won't think about it any more."

Many, many years ago, a Qin general named Bai Qi invaded Yingdu, the capital of Chu at that time, and then ordered Qin soldiers to rush into Yiling and burn the tombs of the royal families of Chu.

A loyal minister of Chu State named Qu Yuan was completely disheartened after hearing the news, jumped from the retreating boat, plunged into the surging river, and passed away.

At that time, a child named Qu Zheng shouted hoarsely on the deck: "Daddy!"

From that day on, Qu Zheng lost his father.

Qu Zheng lost not only his father, the capital of Chu State was occupied, and the tombs of his ancestors were burned. Of course, someone needs to take the blame for such a shocking shame.

The living people are unwilling to take the blame, so the blame falls on the dead as a matter of course.

Qu Yuan also took a big blame.

Therefore, as the youngest concubine born to Qu Yuan's concubine, Qu Zheng and his mother were expelled from the Qu family and wandered around the world ever since.

From that day on, Qu Zheng told himself that he wanted to avenge his father.

Who caused Qu Yuan to throw himself into the river in grief and indignation?

Of course it's Bai Qi, it's the damn Qin!After many, many years later, Qu Zheng came into contact with Nightingale by chance, and by virtue of his talent, he was appreciated by the head of the Nightingale branch in Chu State, and recommended him to Zhao Kuo, Wuxin Lord of Handan.

Qu Zheng stood in front of Zhao Kuo, and his first words were: "Your Honor, please send me to Qin!"

When he said this, Qu Zheng's eyes were burning with fierce hatred.

A few years later, Qu Zheng became a eunuch and entered the palace of King Qin, serving King Qin with all his heart every day.

Now, in his eyes, there is once again a burning flame of hatred!

Chapter 751 Killing the King of Qin with Poison (Sixth Change)

Looking at the fire of hatred in Qu Zheng's eyes, Mao Sui seemed to understand something, and sighed: "Why bother?"

Qu Zheng didn't speak.

The flame in his eyes is the best answer.

Mao Sui had no choice but to finally make up his mind, took out a small cloth bag from his bosom, and placed it carefully in Qu Zheng's hand.

"what is this?"
