I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

Those family properties were all bought by oneself through hard work. Is it necessary to offer them like this?

This pair of dogs and men are really sinister and ruthless.

Since you are not benevolent, don't blame a certain Guo Kai for being unrighteous. After today, expose your disgusting things and let everyone in Handan City see it.

"Prime Minister Guo, don't you have anything to say?"

"I heard that Prime Minister Guo has long been rich beyond rivals. The largest cloth village in Handan is the property under the name of Prime Minister Guo. There are still [-] mu of fertile land and fifty mansions under the name of Prime Minister Guo..."

"Guo Kai, although you follow the former emperor and the current king, no matter how high your salary is, it can't be this amount, right? How did you get these family properties?"

Zhao Yi stood up, pointed at Guo Kai, and shook out pieces one by one. Hearing that Guo Kai's forehead was covered with cold sweat, this was all his secret. How did Zhao Yi know this?

"Zhao Yu, are you investigating a certain Guo Kai?"

Zhao Yu was about to poke Guo Kai's nose with his fingers, and cursed: "So what? Are you afraid of being investigated if you dare to do it?"

"Guo Xiang, what's going on here? Ai Jia remembers that the late emperor never rewarded you with so much property?" After raising his eyebrows, he looked at Guo Kai.

Guo Kai finally knelt down.

thump!

"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, I have worked hard for half my life, and the family property is all accumulated by me. The reason why there are so many properties is for the King, for the country of Zhao!"

Everyone: "???"

"I served the two kings. The late emperor treated Kai like a servant, and the king treated Kai like a family member. The reason why I am accumulating wealth is that I am afraid that one day, when the court is in trouble, I can help the king to relieve the urgent need..."

"Your Majesty, I have been waiting for this day for several years, and finally this opportunity has come. I am willing to give up all my family property. Your Majesty must be aware of the details and not wrong you!"

Zhao Wangqian was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect his Taifu to be so rich, why would he still cry to himself about being poor?

"Teacher, you..."

"Your Majesty, this minister is all for you!"

Everyone was speechless.

But what can be done, they have dedicated all their property to the king now, and they are also deputy prime ministers, and they are also the king's tutor.

"Teacher, get up, the widow knows your painstaking efforts!"

Although Zhao Qian was annoyed that Guo Kai had cheated him, he was also ecstatic in his heart that the Tai Tuo was so rich, what a blessing in disguise!

Guo Kai stood up slowly, tears streaming down his face, I don't know if it was moved or because of his wealth.

The important ministers and nobles all began to donate their family properties, but everyone knew that the donations were all on the bright side, and the family properties hidden in the dark were enough for them to be rich for a lifetime.

Advocate Hou smiled, thinking in his heart, as long as these important ministers and nobles donated, those nobles and officials below, who dare not pay, will be punished?

She bowed and said: "On behalf of the subjects of the State of Zhao, the Ai family would like to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart. With all the subjects of the humerus, the victory over the State of Qin is just around the corner."

Everyone bowed to return the salute, but their hearts were bleeding, and they were tricked to death by this woman.

Chang Hou looked at Zhao Wangqian with a smile, and said with a smile: "My lord, now we have soldiers and food, but we still lack generals who can fight well. Why don't we call old generals Tian Dan and Yu Qing back to participate in the defense of Zhao State? Ai Jia thought, the two veteran generals will definitely not sit back and watch Qin State destroy Zhao State."

"The Ai family has found out clearly that the old general Yu Qing is now settling in Daliang, Wei, and spending the rest of his life writing books."

"And Old General Tian Dan is in Handan City. Last year, Ai's family visited him!"

"What do you think?" After arguing, he looked at everyone.

"The Queen Mother's words are very kind. Two generals have joined us. This time, we will definitely strengthen Qin and return with hatred."

"The empress is wise..."

"The Queen Mother..."

When the ministers heard that the two old generals, Yu Qing and Tian Dan, were going to welcome back, they were all excited. As long as they won this battle and donated their family property, they would be great heroes.

It’s just that Guo Kai was dumbfounded again, he and these two old generals had enmity, when these people were around, they looked down on him, called him a traitor, finally got him away, and now they are coming back again, they returned holding the army , Then you still have your own good life?

Guo Kai was in a hurry, and hurriedly said to Empress Advocate and Zhao Qian: "Queen Dowager, Your Majesty, I heard that Yu Qing is terminally ill, can he fight after taking it back? There is also General Tian Dan, who is almost sixty years old, and it is difficult to walk. , how can you mount a horse and kill the enemy?"

"In our court, there are some young generals who are good at fighting, such as General Zhao Cong, who is also a member of the royal family. General Yan Ju is not bad either!"

After advocating, he said with a smile: "Guo Xiang, I think you don't know much about wars."

"General? What is a general? It is not a general who rushes to kill recklessly, but sits in the rear, strategizes, and wins thousands of miles. It depends on resourcefulness, not personal bravery."

Guo Kai: "..."

Old ladies, you are cruel, but we are old partners anyway, if I, Guo Kai, hadn't helped you back then, you would have become the queen mother, let alone your son would have become the king.

You are so fast at crossing rivers and tearing down bridges!

"The empress dowager taught me that my minister Menglang has failed."

Guo Kai sighed, it seems that this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run.

Chapter 167 Guo Kai's Revenge

After the discussion, all the ministers started to do their own work, but after advocating, Zhao Qian was called to his yard alone.

"Qian'er, you have grown up, but your wrist is still not as good as your father's. You can solve problems in a gentle way, and you must not be tough. When you have to endure, you still have to endure. Even if you are the king of Zhao, you can't mess around. .”

"Don't you know how powerful Qin is? We have regained the military power in Li Mu's hands, and we have driven away Zhao Jia who can compete with you for the throne. Now, what you should do is to unite all the forces that can be united. Use the power of the entire Zhao country to resist the invasion of Qiang Qin."

"Regardless of Shu Qi's assassination or the assassination of King Qin Yingzheng, Qin State will attack Zhao State sooner or later. Qin State and Zhao State have been hostile to each other for generations, and they all regard each other as fat meat that can be absorbed. The country is the top priority, and this generation of King Qin Yingzheng has even greater ambitions."

"If you ransacked Zhao's house for a little money today, who would be willing to sacrifice his life for Zhao Guo, and who would be willing to sacrifice his life for you Zhao Qian?"

"As the king of a country, you must first take a long-term view. How can you destroy yourself for the sake of immediate interests?"

"Today, the queen mother also did what the king wanted to do, and she did it, but did the queen mother offend anyone? No, they donated their property voluntarily. Since they donated their property, they will put all their eggs in one basket and do their best to help you, the king. , thinking that after defeating Qiang Qin, you will reward them with more property and titles, Your Majesty."

After listening to the words of the advocate, Zhao Qian realized something. After all, he was too young to be impulsive in some things.

"Mother, my son will remember."

"Go, the queen mother is tired and needs to rest!"

After Zhao Qian saluted, he returned to his palace, ready to think about how to defend against Qiang Qin's attack.

Seeing his son leaving after arguing, he stretched his waist and said to the maid beside him, "Go to the palace where Prime Minister Zhao Yu came to Ai's family. Ai's family has important matters to discuss with the Prime Minister."

Soon after.

Zhao Yu stood at the gate of the palace in Changhou, with a dejected expression on his face, and he sighed a long time: "I, Zhao Yu, am the scum of the Zhao royal family, a beast..."

"It's not as courageous as my nephew Zhao Jia, I'm in vain as a member of the Zhao clan!"

But he was really afraid of death, and he was afraid of the reputation that would be reviled by thousands of people. He knew that there was a bottomless abyss ahead, but he continued to walk step by step.

"Queen Mother, the minister is here."

In the palace garden room, Empress Chang had already dismissed the maids and servants, she was the only one sitting on the blanket on the ground, she took off her coat and shoes, and was tasting the summer heat soup just made by the imperial kitchen.

"Xiangguo has worked hard, hurry up and sit, come, sit by Ai's house."

Zhao Yu stood there with a mournful face and didn't move.

"Are you afraid that Ai's family will eat you up? If I knew today, why bother to make a mistake back then, let it go on."

"Xiangguo assisted Qian'er wholeheartedly, and this time he helped Qian'er to bring so much money and food, which is indispensable..."

"Aijia is also a conscientious woman, how can she let Xiangguo suffer?"

Zhao Yu said: "It is my duty to assist the king wholeheartedly. As a child of the Zhao royal family, I must hope that the Zhao royal family will last for thousands of years and that the Zhao country will become stronger..."

"That's right, this time the strong Qin is coming, Xiangguo has to make great efforts to protect the Zhao family's country and society."

……

Outside the palace, Guo Kai got the news that Zhao Yu was going to the Empress Dowager's palace, and rushed over immediately. After listening to the palace maid's report, his face was gloomy, and he secretly scolded men and women in his heart.

But the chance for revenge has finally come.

Guo Kai had already bribed the servant next to the empress, after pondering for a while, he said to the servant: "Go and inform the king, and say that the queen mother has urgent matters with the king."

After Guo Kai finished giving his orders, he stuffed some gold into the other maids and servants, and then walked swaggeringly and left the palace.

Now I want to see if the king will be so angry when he sees that scene when he arrives at the queen mother's palace, and then click Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yu had just returned to his palace, and before he had time to talk to some generals, the servant from the empress' side came to inform him that the empress dowager had invited him.

Zhao Qian wondered, didn't he just come from his mother's queen?

But his mother had orders, so he had to hurry over.

When we arrived at the Queen Mother's Palace, I saw maids and servants waiting outside the door. Many of them had their ears turned sideways, as if they were listening to some indescribable voice.

"Cough cough cough..."

The maid and the servants turned around and saw that it was Zhao Qian, they were frightened to death, they all knelt on the ground and shouted: "My lord, please forgive me..."

Zhao Qian: "???"

Zhao Qian was at a loss, seeing the maids and servants kneeling on the ground and no one was going to report to his mother, he said angrily: "Things that don't have eyes, don't report to the queen?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

"Your Majesty, you can't go..."

Zhao Qian didn't know why, what's going on?

"Go away, damn it, execute them all!"

Zhao Qian walked directly towards the palace garden, and the palace garden was very quiet, except for the sound of something breaking from the queen mother's palace.

"Empress, Erchen is here, I don't know what you want to do with Erchen?"

After a while, a voice came from the room: "Your Majesty, come in!"

Zhao Qian went in with a dazed expression, but saw Changhou and Zhao Yuduan sitting on both sides of the table, with a few maps on the table.

Seeing Zhao Qian coming, Zhao Yi got up quickly and said, "I have seen the king."

Zhao Yu frowned, uncle was alone, what was he doing in his mother's palace?

Changhou blushed and said with a smile: "Qian'er, your uncle was found by the Ai family, and he wanted to ask for advice on defense."

"My lord, when the battle begins, I will personally go to the front line to sit in command. If the Qin army wants to step over the defensive line, they must step on the body of the minister."

Zhao Qian nodded and asked, "Why did you ask your son to come, Queen Mother?"

The queen was obviously taken aback for a moment, when did she let her son come?

But she had already guessed that she was plotted against by someone, damn it, once she was found out, she would be torn apart.

"Hehe, it's actually nothing, it's just that you and your uncle have some misunderstandings. In fact, your uncle is your relative after all, and he will entrust you with important tasks in the future. Only relatives will help you with all your strength."

Zhao Qian cupped his hands and said, "Since the queen mother has nothing to do, the son-in-law will leave first."

Zhao Qian turned around and walked out directly.

Zhao Hou and Zhao Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Yi sat down on the ground, his clothes soaked in cold sweat.

Then he laughed and said, "Look, you are scared. You are his uncle and he is your nephew. How can he eat you?"

Zhao Yu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I will leave."

Zhao Yu turned around and ran away.

Zhang Hou snorted coldly, his face extremely gloomy: "When Qiang Qin is repelled this time, let's see how the Ai family will deal with you, etc., Zhao Yu, you can't escape the palm of the Ai family, unless you burn everything together."

Chapter 168 Prince Dan Plans to Assassinate Zhang He

In the evening, Empress Chang took gifts and went out of the palace in person to Tian Dan's residence, inviting Tian Dan to come out of the mountain to help Zhao Guo.

At the same time, Advocate Hou also promised to give Tian Dan 5 horses to go to the North to assist Pang Nuan and jointly guard the north of Zhao State.

She also asked Zhao Qian to write a letter in person, and sent Xu You, the imperial historian, to Daliang, Wei, to find Yu Qing, and promised Yu Qing that Yu Qing would be the prime minister of the country, and she would go to Qi and Wei countries to win the alliance , Together against Qin.

On the second day, after advocating, Zhao Yu was found again, and Zhao Yu was asked to go to the border of Qin and Zhao in Taihang Mountains to stabilize Sima Shang. At the same time, it was also regarded as monitoring Sima Shang. After all, Sima Shang was Li Mu's deputy general. Now that Li Mu is on leave, he is afraid of Sima Shang raised his troops to rebel.

On the third day, the county guards and nobles from all over the state of Zhao raised a large amount of food and grass, and began to transport it to various borders, preparing to resist the state of Qin to the end.

For the safety of Handan City, after advocacy, [-] elite troops were left behind and handed over to Zhao Cong, a son of King Zhao's family, to station in the city.

Zhao Wangqian found Xiaoyaozi, the head of the Taoist family, and reached an agreement with Xiaoyaozi. At the same time, he handed over the command of the black guards to Xiaoyaozi, and asked Xiaoyaozi to capture the spies of the Qin State in Handan City and completely wiped out them. inherent dangers.

This made Xiaoyaozi very excited. Although their Taoist family lives in Handan, they have not received much attention from the Zhao royal family. This time, the Jixia Academy debate, the famous family suffered a disastrous defeat, and the black-clothed guards were hit hard. The Taoist family has developed The opportunity finally came.
