Master Xiu's Cannon Fodder [Transmigration Book]

In the blink of an eye, it has been three years since Xie Zhi traveled to this world.

Three years is enough to change the necessary things. It can make the prince who was on the cusp of the storm gradually withdraw from the vortex of the political center and choose to hide his strength and bide his time. It can also make an unknown heir to the throne become a leader who is most likely to affect the world in the future. Powerful hands.

Zhao Yan obviously belongs to the latter.

He appeared in the political center of Zhao State with the force of thunder. In the first month after returning to China, he persuaded the emperor of Zhao State to negotiate a peace with Liang State and send troops to Chen State. But no matter from which point of view, Zhao Yan's proposal avoided a big war between Zhao and Liang, and preserved the strength for Zhao Guo to win the world. The national strength has been fundamentally damaged, and it will not recover within ten years.

However, it is said that it was also because of being robbed and recalled to the country. Zhao Yan vomited blood angrily at the time, and then he was bedridden in the mansion for more than half a month. In the second month after Zhao Guo was forced to cease troops against Chen Guo, the king of Chen Guo died of a strange illness, and the young master came to the throne. Zhao Yan, who was recuperating in the mansion, also appeared in everyone's sight, and was formally named the Prince of Zhao as soon as he appeared.

Even if someone notices the strangeness, no one dares to find out. As Zhao Huang's elder brother, that is, Zhao Yanhuang's uncle, Yong Wang is also one of the participants in this matter. Afterwards, this is how he evaluated his cheap nephew :

"Zhao Yan, with his bravery, wisdom and ruthlessness, will definitely become a serious concern for us. Either we will destroy him, or he will destroy us and the country of Zhao."

At that time, no one took King Yong's words to heart, and some even thought that King Yong was really old and timid, and they were so frightened by a teenage boy.

But soon, King Yong's words were confirmed.

In the second year after Zhao Yan returned to the country, Zhao Yan was named the crown prince. In the same year, the emperor of Zhao State abdicated as the Supreme Emperor and officially passed the throne to Zhao Yan. For this new king who almost parachuted into Zhao State, the clan members The attitude at the beginning was disdainful or even contemptuous. Looking at the ignorant and ignorant appearance, they felt that if it was not because they wanted to worry about the Supreme Emperor, they would have already completely emptied Zhao Yan and only made him a puppet emperor.

However, with the passage of time, the clans gradually realized that something was wrong. Zhao Yan's seemingly innocuous policies weakened their power, but when they came back to their senses and wanted to resist, they were surprised. It was discovered that all the confidential personnel in the court had become Zhao Yan's people. In the end, the seemingly weak and incompetent young monarch finally revealed his minions that had been hidden for a long time, and an imperial edict directly wanted to take back their fiefs.

Faced with such a change, the clans were at a loss, so they had to ask King Yong again. King Yong, who had not asked about political affairs for more than two years, sighed:

"I told you to be wary of Zhao Yan, but you just didn't listen. Now, you have only one way to go."

The clans hurriedly worshiped: "I also ask King Yong to enlighten me!"

"You please cut off the land, leaving only the house and a hundred acres of fertile land. If the Supreme Emperor cares about the family's affection, maybe something can be salvaged."

The clans are angry, what's the point of asking themselves to cut off the fief!Those fiefdoms were all laid down by the ancestors, left by generations!Why did the court say to take it?Leave only the house and a hundred acres of fertile land?Then what is the difference between them and ordinary people in the future?

According to the author's setting, the stubborn cannon fodder who is destined to become the stepping stone on the protagonist's road to success often has low IQ, and the anger makes the clan lose their minds, so they came up with a way: hire a killer to assassinate Zhao Yan, of course, In the end it ended in failure.

When he heard the news, King Yong only said one sentence.

"The clan is over."

Although he has already learned about Zhao Yan's methods, King Yong still couldn't believe his judgment on the clan. Zhao Yan almost uprooted the three major clans in the Zhao Kingdom. The crime is punished with death, and even the newborn baby is not spared. The platform for execution is built by craftsmen who worked tirelessly for ten days.

Zhao Yan observed the execution in person, and King Yong also went to the scene. Those criminals who knelt on the edge of the Si River in the suburbs had been in power for a while, and they had made great contributions to Zhao Guo. Counting them, most of them were King Zhao. The family members of the family, and some are even Zhao Yan's distant cousins ​​and elders.

But just like the fact that although the countries are relatives, it is impossible to stop fighting for a while, the game of power between the royal family and the clan will not stop for a moment, and this situation has finally come to an end in the hands of Zhao Yan—— All his clansmen were completely wiped out, so naturally no one would share power with him. Unlike the emperors of other countries, Zhao Yan had completely shaken off the shackles of his clan, and finally became the real master of the Zhao Kingdom. It is destined that Zhao State will become stronger faster than other countries.

Before the execution, the execution ground continued to cry and howl. After that, as the executioner raised the knife and fell, blood gushed out. The scene was enveloped in death-like silence. Looking at the more than 500 headless corpses that fell, King Yong trembled. Pointing at Zhao Yan, it took a long time before he said a word:

"One day, Zhao Guoguo will perish in your hands!"

A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhao Yan's mouth. He got up and walked to King Yong. Compared with when he just returned to the country, Zhao Yan's body was no longer thin and thin. He had grown much taller, even taller than his uncle Yong. Wang Du is a bit taller, with a slender and strong body and a stern face, he is already a pampered and handsome young man.

He lowered his head and leaned into King Yong's ear, with a biting coldness in his peaceful voice: "I promised my father not to kill you, so I will let you wait until that day to see how I trampled the world under my feet." .”

After that day, Zhao Du was cloudy and rainy for three consecutive days, and for a whole year, the water in the Si River smelt faintly of blood.

After doing all this, Zhao Yan was just 17 years old.

At this age when most people are still worrying about their future livelihood, Liang Ao is still worrying about how to protect himself from the suspicion of his father and brothers, Han Lin is still studying hard in the academy, hoping to have a good future in the future At an age when Xie Zhi's children's shoes were still at home secretly rubbing heads and stealing heads, Zhao Yan has become the most powerful person in the world, and he is not one of them yet.

However, Zhao Yan, who has all these things, is not happy.

Seeing off his father, oh, now that he is the Supreme Emperor, Zhao Yan became even more unhappy after leaving the capital with the great general to prepare to live together.

After he came back, he did one thing: changed his name to Zhao Xing, and even issued an imperial decree to announce it to the world—this was something he had done in his previous life.

For him, the name Zhao Yan carries too many memories. He has the tragic experience of being bullied by others when he was a proton in Zhou Guo. Zhao Yan in the last life just wanted to show that the current self is completely different from the weak self in the past. , that’s why he changed his name to the Second Secondary School, but after being reborn once, Zhao Yan actually doesn’t remember clearly the experience of Zhou Guo. The most clear memory is probably when he met Xie Zhi when he was in Chen Guo. It is precisely because of this that he made the same choice as in his previous life. He wanted Xie Zhi to know that there was only one person in the world who could call the name Zhao Yan.

However, when Xie Zhi, who was far away in Liang Guo at this time, heard the news, he was just a little shocked that Kai Huo's upgrade speed was comparable to that of Kai Hang and taking medicine, and he still had a personality in the second grade. He couldn't understand it at all. The deep meaning in Zhao Yan's move, and soon, his attention has shifted to another matter.

Xie Zhi still remembered that it was an afternoon when he still had nothing to do at Wupingguan and could only browse the forum to pass the time, but the servant came to announce that Liang Ao had come to visit.

This His Highness has always been in the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so there must be something wrong here, Xie Zhi is a little confused, but according to the development of the plot, what can happen now?

Seeing Liang Ao's hasty footsteps, Xie Zhi felt that this matter was not a trivial matter. Just when he came in front of Xie Zhi, Liang Ao, who was always very polite, cupped his fists and bowed to him:

"Mr. Xie."

Xie Zhi waved his hand: "You're welcome, just tell your Highness if you have anything to say."

For some reason, Liang Ao was taken advantage of: "..."

Liang Ao rearranged his expression, and then continued: "In half a month, it will be the Zongguo Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, Father sent me to Zongguo."

Just go, Xie Zhi didn't understand why Liang Ao wanted to find him for this matter, could it be that he wanted to go with him?

As if he had already guessed what Xie Zhi was thinking, Liang Ao showed embarrassment: "Actually, going to the Zong Kingdom this time is not just as simple as participating in the grand ceremony, the emperor also ordered me to propose marriage to the Zong Kingdom Princess."

"Are you proposing marriage for Your Highness?" Xie Zhi raised his eyebrows, but for a moment he couldn't remember that Emperor Liang was messing around again.

Liang Ao's expression became more embarrassing: "Father is going to marry Princess Zongguo as the new queen."

Only then did Xie Zhi remember that a few months ago, Emperor Liang's empress died of illness suddenly, and now the throne is vacant. This old man actually put his mind on the princess of Zongguo, who is old enough to be his daughter. His Highness's future wife, his daughter-in-law!

"And I think Zhao Guo also has this intention." Xie Zhi was thinking about the annual bloody drama where his father-in-law robbed his daughter-in-law, when Liang Ao's words brought him back to reality.

Hearing Liang Ao mentioning Zhao Guo, Xie Zhi thought of the earth-shaking changes in Zhao Guo for some reason. Fortunately, as brother Kai Huo's confidant, Han Lin finally became Zhao Guo's prime minister, presumably Xiao Yan had a good time with him .

With such thoughts in his heart, Xie Zhi said casually, "Zhao Guo is going too? Who sent the special envoy? It couldn't be Han Lin..."

Liang Ao opened his mouth wide, with an unbelievably shocked expression on his face: "Mr. really has a clever plan, the one sent by Zhao Guo is Han Lin."

... Xie Zhi swears to God, he really guessed randomly, after all, Zhao Guo is so big, and he only knows Han Lin when he is an official.
