Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

The Empress Dowager smiled, and was about to hear the words to appease her own children, but suddenly her heart moved slightly, and she asked a meaningful question.

"Son, you are the king of Zhao, you should have some ideas of your own.

Tell me, Taishi Han Xuwei or Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, which one is more loyal to the Great Zhao? "

Chapter 193 King Zhao's Answer

It sounds like some patients are in a hurry to go to the doctor, but of course the Queen Mother is not without reason.

First of all, although the matter of the school palace involved the internal struggle of Zhao Guo's high-level officials, it was not a major event that would affect Zhao Guo's fortune.

Secondly, the queen mother also wanted to know which person her son liked more between Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo and An Guojun Han Xuwei.

Anyway, it's a dilemma, so it's better to just follow my son's wishes, he is the king of Zhao!Facing the Queen Mother's question, Little Zhao Wang thought about it seriously for a while, and then said: "Mother, I think Mr. Wu Xin is more loyal."

The queen mother froze for a moment, with a surprised expression on her face: "How do you know?"

Little Zhao Wang said with a smile: "Because Wu Xinjun helped the widow to defeat the Qin State and obtained a lot of land!"

The queen mother looked at the innocent face of little Zhao Wang, and couldn't help laughing: "Your son Wu Xinjun is a general, isn't it normal to win?

Then why don't you like An Guojun? "

Little Zhao Wang said with a serious face: "Mother, An Guojun is too serious, and he always likes to speak ill of other people in front of his son.

Like Mr. Pingyuan, Mr. Wu Xin is a bad person in his mouth. "

The queen mother snorted and was a little puzzled: "Why didn't I hear you say this before?"

Xiao Wang said: "An Guojun is the mother's natal family, and I don't want my mother to be angry with him because of this."

The Empress Dowager's expression was complicated, and she said after a while, "Didn't Mr. Wu Xin speak ill of others when he was teaching?"

Little Zhao Wang nodded and said: "Wu Xinjun also said that An Guojun didn't like him, and An Guojun also prevented Wu Xinjun from continuing to attack Qin.

Therefore, the widow asked him if he felt that Mr. An was in collusion with the Qin people. "

The Empress Dowager's expression changed again, and she said, "What did Lord Wu Xin say?"

King Zhao said: "Mr. Wu Xin said that Mr. An should not collude with Qin."

The queen was silent again.

As the sky gradually darkened, the bronze oil lamps in the hall were lit one by one, and a breeze blew into the hall. The lights of the oil lamps swayed with the wind, and the light and shadow interlaced on the Queen Mother's face, making it look cloudy and uncertain.

In the next few days, Zhao Kuo continued to discuss the details of the academy with Xun Kuang, while paying attention to the political situation in Zhao State.

Zhao Guo's political arena is very lively.

As Mr. Pingyuan expected, Lin Xiangru mobilized a large number of officials sent by scholars to impeach the school palace. Some memorials demanded budget cuts, and other memorials demanded that the construction plan of the school palace be canceled directly.

In response, the officials on the side of Mr. Pingyuan and Zhao Kuo also paid a lot of money, some of them supported the original budget, and the other part asked for an increase in the budget.

Xu Li said with certainty: "The memorials these days are estimated to fill five rooms!"

Regarding this, Zhao Kuo naturally laughed it off: "Anyway, it is for the queen mother to see, and it has nothing to do with us."

Xu Li said with some concern: "Your Majesty, do you think the Queen Mother will agree to our request?"

Zhao Kuo rubbed his chin and said, "This Marquis doesn't know either, but I should be sure.

By the way, you just said that people from the Mo family can arrive in Handan today?

Make arrangements for them to come and see me as soon as they arrive. "

A team of hundreds of people is slowly approaching the gate of Handan City.

Mozi, the founder of Mohism, once said: "So the clothes for the saints are enough for the body and skin."

This is also the "frugality" in Mohism's thinking, so most of the Mohist team are plainly dressed, and many of them have rough skin and obvious calluses on their hands.

A younger man with thinner skin than other Mozhe sat on a carriage at the front of the Mozhe, his face full of emotion: "It's finally here.

Mr. Mao Sui, what you said before should count, right? "

Sitting next to the young Mohist, Mao Sui, Zhao Kuo's retainer who was holding the reins and driving the chariot, couldn't help laughing, "That's natural.

Jun Hou must be very happy to hear that this time, he was able to get a real young man to come. "

Fuzhen sighed, and said: "It's nothing more than a bereaved dog, what kind of young giant is already a thing of the past.

My lineage of the Mohist family has already withered talents, this time I just hope to get a place to survive, and I have nothing else to ask for. "

Mao Sui said sternly: "Young master, you worry too much. My lord is absolutely sincere to the Mohists. You will know later."

Fuzhen hesitated for a moment, and asked: "I heard that Lord Wu Xin is planning to build a new school recently, and the great scholar Xun Kuang is the great scholar Xun Kuang?"

Mao Sui was stunned when he heard the words, of course he knew the grievances between Mohism and Confucianism, and he said after a few seconds: "To tell you the truth, you have never told me about this, so I think he has his own reasons." arrange."

Fuzhen nodded, and suddenly laughed a little self-deprecatingly: "Forget it, I was thinking too much.

Confucianism and Mohism are not at odds with each other in the first place, and I am already overwhelmed with gratitude for being taken in by the Marquis, so how can I have such unreasonable thoughts? "

Having said that, deep disappointment can still be heard from Fuzhen's tone.

The splendor of Jixia Academy was admired by the Mohists, but Jixia Academy was controlled by Confucianism, so there was no room for Mohists.

Now seeing the establishment of Zhao Guo's new school, the Mo family still has no chance, and this feeling of loss is something no one else can understand.

Seeing that Fuzhen had obviously lost interest in speaking, Mao Sui stopped talking, and led a group of people through the gate of Handan unimpeded with the pass issued by Zhao Kuo himself.

Walking on the bustling Handan Street, the Mohists were also quite curious, looking left and right, and whispering.

"Handan City seems to be more prosperous than Xianyang."

"That's natural. Daqin has always suppressed merchants, but Handan City is full of merchants. How can Xianyang be as lively as Handan?"

"Hey, if you can own a house in such a prosperous place, how happy it would be.

Do you think Wu Xinjun will give us this chance? "

"Wu Xinjun can give us a chance to survive. You still want a house?

Think about how we got out of Daqin. "

"Too.

As long as I can survive." About half an hour later, the group finally arrived at the destination of Lord Wuxin's mansion.

Fu Zhen looked at the Wu Xinjun Mansion in front of him, and for the first time a surprised expression appeared on his face.

This mansion is very luxurious and majestic, but this is not the reason for Fuzhen's surprise. In Xianyang City, the mansions of Lord An, Lord Yangquan and Yinghou are not inferior.

What really surprised Fu was that the main gate of Lord Wu Xin's mansion was open at this moment!Greeting guests at the main entrance, this is definitely the treatment that only distinguished guests can enjoy, Guzhen took a deep breath, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Wu Xinjun thinks the Mo family is a distinguished guest?

Chapter 194 Conquering the Mohists

Not only Fuzhen, but behind Fuzhen, several elders of the Mo family looked at each other, and they all saw the expressions of surprise on the faces of their old partners.

The philosophy of the Mohist school has always been rooted in the grassroots, and it is a natural conflict of interest with a big aristocrat like Zhao Kuo, so even in the early Warring States period when the Mohist school was the most powerful, few big aristocrats were willing to give Mohists such courtesy.

The group of Mohists led by Fu Zhen belonged to the defeated party in the internal strife among Mohist schools in Qin State. They were almost cornered by the victorious party and were about to be annexed. They had no choice but to leave Qin State to find another way.

To put it bluntly, this is a group of bereaved dogs.

However, such a group of extremely embarrassed Mohists were able to receive such courtesy from Zhao Kuo in Handan.

This is Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo.

Today's most powerful country in the world, Zhao Guozhong, is the undisputed No.1 general in the world!Fu Zhen was filled with emotions for a while, and didn't know what to say.

At this moment, Xu Li's figure appeared.

Xu Li came forward, smiled at Fu Zhen who was standing beside Mao Sui, and said, "This must be a rich man, right?

I am Xu Li, head of the House of Lord Wuxin.

Please, please come in quickly, my family has been waiting for you for a long time. "

"Wu Xinjun is waiting for me?"

Fuzhen was more and more flattered when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "I have Lao Jiazai, and I will take Fuzhen to pay homage to Wu Xinjun."

Xu Li smiled and nodded, and said: "I have already explained the rest of the Mohists, Mao Sui, you take them to the guest house in the backyard to settle down temporarily, rest for a few days and then make arrangements."

Although there are more than a hundred of these Mohists, which big aristocratic mansion doesn't have hundreds or thousands of customers these days?

Mr. Pingyuan even raised three to 4000 people in the mansion. Although Zhao Kuo is not as exaggerated as Mr. Pingyuan, it is really not a big deal to settle more than 100 people in this area.

Having said that, both Fuzhen and Mohists felt a warm feeling in their hearts.

Those who have come to Handan from thousands of miles away are most afraid of being thrown aside and ignored when they come here. Now the courteousness of the Zhao Mansion is so thoughtful, which is much better than what the mohists imagined.

After a while, Fu Zhen followed Xu Li to Zhao Kuo's study and saw Zhao Kuo.

Fu really didn't dare to be negligent, so he knelt down and saluted directly: "Scholar Fu has really seen the king!"

Zhao Kuo looked at the same age person in front of him, and the information obtained by the "Nightingales" of the Zhao Mansion's intelligence system emerged in his mind after investigating the truth.

Fuzhen, now the sixth concubine of the Mohists of the Qin State, one of the six young masters of the Mohists, and the leader of the Mogong faction.

Since the success of Shang Yang's reform, the legalist Daxing of the Qin State has completely occupied the dominant position, which has led to a sharp reduction in the voice of the Mohists in the Qin State.

Fu, a contemporary Mohist giant, wanted to compete with the Legalists at first, but was taken advantage of by the Legalists, who in turn forced him to kill the Mohist's original intended next giant, and also his eldest son, Fuzheng.

After killing his eldest son, Juzi died of a serious abdominal illness. Around the vacant position of Juzi, there was a huge internal strife among the three factions of Mo Shi, Mo Xia and Mo Gong who were already at odds.

And now sitting in front of Zhao Kuo, the young Juzi Fuzhen is the first loser to be kicked out in the internal strife. If it wasn't because he still has the identity of the son of the former Juzi Fu, Fuzhen would have been killed a long time ago.

It is precisely because of this that today's Mohists in power are very happy to see Fu Zhen leading his supporters out of Qin, and have not done anything to prevent Fu Zhen from leading his supporters to leave.

It's just that, the abdomen is really not worthy of Zhao Kuo's attention.

This young giant is also one of the most outstanding master craftsmen of the Qin State. In the past five years, he has improved the armor and weapons of the Qin State three times, increasing the protection of the Qin Army's armor by [-]%, and the lethality of the weapons. Two and a half.

You must know that the power of Qin's bronze weapons has reached its peak, but Fuzhen can actually make Qin's bronze armored weapons go a step further, one can imagine his level.

In order to cover Fuzhen and his party from leaving Qin, Nightingale tried her best in the Qin branch, and in the end she succeeded by exposing six hidden stakes.

Zhao Kuo hopes to reap enough rewards for such a costly effort.

Zhao Kuo showed a smile: "There is no need to be polite, just sit down."

Fuzhen stood up and sat down in fear.

Zhao Kuo could tell that the young man in front of him lacked experience in interacting with others, and he was embarrassed all over.

Zhao Kuo slowed down his tone, and said: "The journey is exhausting, and you have also worked hard."

Fu Zhen hurriedly said: "Going back to the Lord, it's actually not that hard work.

As long as Jun Hou is willing to take us in, we Mohists are willing to do their best for Jun Hou! "

Zhao Kuo nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, since the Marquis asked you to come, of course I want to use you.

Not only do we need to use you, but we also need to give full play to your role, so that the whole world can recognize the role of your Mogong lineage! "

As the so-called arsenic is my honey, this Mohist lineage may be just a group of stinky craftsmen in the eyes of other rulers and even the Mohism, but what Zhao Kuo likes and wants the most is these Mohist artisans.

There is no other, because these craftsmen have inherited most of Mozi's knowledge in physics and equipment construction inventions. On the contrary, it is the Mohist thought that others think is the most precious, but Zhao Kuo does not value it.

As a time traveler, Zhao Kuo is not bragging. When it comes to ideology and theory, there is really no one in the world who can fight Zhao Kuo.

What Zhao Kuo wants is the invention and creativity of the Mohists!But now, Zhao Kuo is really in front of Zhao Kuo, the young master of the Mohist lineage who has invented and created the most things for the Mohist school.

Zhao Kuo chatted casually with Fu Zhen, and then said with a smile: "By the way, there is a piece of news I want to share with you, and the young master must be very happy to hear it."

I was really taken aback, and said, "I don't know what kind of news you are talking about?"

Zhao Kuo coughed lightly, and said, "It's like this, I have actually communicated with Xun Kuang, the chief priest, about the situation of you Mohists.

The meaning of Xun Kuang's sacrificial wine is very simple, that is, he will not object to you Mohists entering the academy. "

Fuzhen's body trembled, and his mind went blank for a moment.

After a long while, Fu Zhen stammered and asked: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, can I, really, be able to teach in the future Zhao Guoxue Palace and promote Mohism's thoughts and ideas?"

Zhao Kuo laughed: "Of course this is true."

Fuzhen's face was extremely excited, and suddenly he stood up again, knelt on the ground with a bang, and saluted Zhao Kuo again.

"Fu Zhen and all the Mohists would like to thank Jun Hou Gao Yi, once Jun Hou has his life in the future, we will definitely die!"
