Chapter 54

Zhao Wangdan passed away. Ying Zheng did not get the news from Xianyang, but got the news from the most unlikely place.

HD Guo Kai.

The No. [-] War God of Zhao State, who successfully completed the peace talks with Qin State a month ago, reappeared in Xinzheng, but compared to the last time, Guo Kai at this time was extremely embarrassed, and the distance between HD and Xinzheng appeared on the map. Not far, but in terms of the traffic of this era, it is still an extremely long distance. After all, there was no direct road between Korea and Zhao.

In order to rush to Xinzheng as quickly as possible, Guo Kai has been running non-stop for several days, and even killed several good horses in a row, before arriving at Xinzheng on the fifth day.

"So, since Zhao Wangdan was besieged in Shangdang a few months ago, Zhao Wangdan's condition has worsened?" Ying Zheng said speechlessly.

In his memory, Zhao Wangdan should have passed away only next year, but he did not expect that the previous Shangdang incident would cause Zhao Wangdan to die early.

"Reporting to the King of Qin, because of the Shangdang incident, the old king's memories of his old age were brought back, and his illness worsened under fear. In the end, he still couldn't survive this winter." Guo Kai said cautiously.

"Zhao Yan didn't keep you as a confidant by his side at this time, and planned the affairs of the superior, why did he send you to Xinzheng?" Ying Zheng asked knowingly.

"Young Master Yan wants to form an alliance with you, King Qin." Guo Kai replied.

"condition."

Ying Zheng's answer was very simple, so simple that Guo Kai was caught off guard. He had already designed his lines in his mind, thinking about what kind of speaking method and reasons he would use to convince King Qin to agree to form an alliance with Gongzi Yan. He did not expect Ying Zheng's words to be so Straightforward.

Fortunately, although Guo Kai is not a good person, and his bones are a little soft, he is definitely a person who belongs to the talent list, so he was just a little stunned for a while, and quickly cleared up his thoughts.

"Young Master Yan hopes that you, King Qin, will temporarily detain the prince who is now a hostage in Xianyang. For this reason, Young Master Yan is willing to dedicate Taiyuan County to King Qin." Guo Kaidao.

"Taiyuan County. Mr. Yan is good at doing business. It is really shrewd to use the land he snatched from Qin State not long ago to make a deal with Gu." Ying Zheng sneered.

Of course, Taiyuan County does not belong to Qin State, but it was captured from Zhao State a few years ago. However, Qin State has not been able to heat up this land. He was snatched back by Zhao Guo again.If we really want to talk about it, the statement that it belongs to the Zhao country is more tenable.

Guo Kai couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, although he really wanted to say that Ying Zheng was completely unreasonable, but he was not Lin Xiangru after all, and he couldn't be that tough.

"Except for Taiyuan County, can Gongzi Yan have nothing else to offer?" Ying Zheng said disappointedly.

The smart Guo Kai instantly understood what Ying Zheng meant. It wasn't that he didn't want to make this deal, but that he disliked the price being too low. Realizing this, Guo Kai couldn't help but clenched his fists. Don't either.

"If the King of Qin has anything he likes, as long as it is owned by my State of Zhao, Mr. Yan will definitely do his best to send it to you, King Qin." Guo Kai promised.

"Taiyuan County plus two people, if Gong Ziyan agrees to this condition, this deal will be established."

"Which two people?" Guo Kai couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that there were only two people, so it was much simpler.

"Princess Zhao and Li Mu."

"It's okay to talk about the princess, but Li Mu?" Guo Kai was a little hesitant. He could understand Ying Zheng asking for Princess Zhao, but what is Li Mu?
Although Li Mu is only considered a general in the Zhao Kingdom, Li Mu's status is still the same at this time. He has been guarding the frontier for decades. Li Mu is also one of the few generals in the state of Zhao. Would it be too ugly to use a general in the country to make a deal?
"Back then, King Zhao exchanged several cities from Qi State for Tian Dan, the famous general of Qi State, but now he only exchanges Taiyuan County for Li Mu. Is it feasible?"

In the eyes of both parties, a business that was sure to make a profit without losing money was concluded in this way.

A few days later, in Prince Yan's mansion.

"What conditions did you agree to Yingzheng? Don't you know that among all the daughters of the king, my sister of the same mother is the only one who is still unmarried? You asked my son's own sister to serve Yingzheng? You are making Yingzheng always They are all hitting me in the face." Gong Ziyan roared at the dusty Guo Kai.

"My lord, of course I know Ying Zheng's sinister intentions. He just wants to use the princess to humiliate you, my lord, but do we have any other choice now? Don't say that King Qin supports the crown prince's ascension to the throne. Even if they choose to watch, for you, my lord, It is also a catastrophe." Guo Kai said earnestly.

Compared with the throne and younger sister, which one is more important, in Guo Kai's view, there is no need to compare at all, but Gongzi Yan doesn't think so.

This Mr. Zhao Guo who is clever but not very wise may not have great abilities, but his spirit is extremely high. If not, Zhao Wangdan would not have kept him by his side.

Since the tragedy of King Wuling of Zhao happened, the following two generations of King Zhao had a heart problem: they were worried that they would be harmed by their own sons.

It is also because of this that among Zhao Wang's sons, the more capable they are, the more taboo they are. On the contrary, incompetent sons will make Zhao Wang look at them differently, just because they are not threatening.

It is also because of this that Zhao Wang is not as good as one generation after another. If Zhao Guo has not perished ten years later, Zhao Yan at this time will be like his grandfather and father, staying away from the relatively more capable eldest son. And get close to the youngest son Zhao Qian who has no ability.

If not, with the strength of Zhao Guo's military, although it will not change the final outcome, there is absolutely no problem in staying on top for more than ten years.

"Then you still agreed to Ying Zheng's conditions? Ah, are you looking for death?" Young Master Yan dragged Guo Kai and said angrily.

"My lord, now we have something to ask Yingzheng, and we can only accept his conditions. Besides, I have really tried my best to make Yingzheng give up Taiyuan County." Guo Kai was almost desperate at this time. , obviously earned it.Not only did he have no credit, but he turned out to be a different person inside and out.

"I asked you to use Taiyuan County as a condition of the transaction, but not my sister." Young Master Yan let go of Guo Kaidao dejectedly.

"My lord, I also know that you have a very good relationship with the princess, but isn't this a last resort? If you miss the throne, you will not be able to protect the princess at that time. I am afraid that even your life, my lord, will be in danger." Guo said. Kai painstakingly persuaded.

"But Ying Zheng obviously intended to humiliate me. Wei Yong is a branch of the royal family, and his daughter can still get the title of Ying Zheng, but my sister has nothing." Gongzi Yan said angrily.

"Husband, if you can't bear it even if you are small, you will make big plans. Besides, since King Qin intends to humiliate you, why don't you do it back to him in the same way?" Just as the young master was angry, a woman came out from behind the screen. At the age of next year, he has a beautiful appearance and a decent demeanor, but his body style is coquettish. These two completely different aesthetics appear in one person, forming a strange balance.

"Ling'er, what did you say?" Gongzi Yan asked in surprise.

"Yingzheng doesn't know what the princess looks like, so we can use the trick to find a low-status woman for Yingzheng. If Yingzheng can pamper this woman, it will be the most enjoyable thing." . " The woman who was called Lian'er by Gongzi Yan said with a charming smile.

"Born from a humble background..." Gongzi Yan thought for a while, his eyes brightened: "It's not easy to find a person who comes from a humble background and can be favored by Ying Zheng, but this is not a problem."

"Of course it's not a problem, sir, have you forgotten where I come from?" Ling'er said softly.

"You mean looking for it from brothels?" Gong Ziyan hesitated, "Will this be a little too cruel?"

"Cruel?" Lianer asked back.

"Really?" Young Master Yan asked Guo Kai.

"No, no, it's not cruel at all, it's just right, just right." Guo Kai said quickly.

In fact, I have already scolded Gongziyan this concubine tens of thousands of times in my heart, and of course it is the most poisonous thing that can't be compared to a woman's heart.

"Lao Lian'er has to do with this matter, we must find the best candidate." Gongzi Yan laughed loudly.

"Husband, you can rest assured, I already know where to choose such a girl."

The so-called phenomenon of subjugation is exactly the same. The three of them don't ask whether the general will stay or stay, but only try their best for a woman. The sorrow of Zhao State is nothing more than this.

The fall of Zhao was not because the people were unwilling to fight to the death, nor because the generals were incompetent, but because the king of Zhao was fatuous.
