The State of Zhao!
The Zhao Palace!
"800 miles, urgent!"
"800 miles, urgent!"
An anxious shout came from outside the palace.
This caused the officials who were in the morning court to look out of the hall.
Not long after, Zhao Bing rushed into the hall in a panic and bowed in fear,"Great King, something bad has happened!"
"The outer city pass of Yanmen County was forced, and General Lianpo was forced to retreat to the inner city.”
" What?!"
Zhao Wangdan cried out in shock, but he staggered and fell on his throne.
"Great King!"
The officials rushed forward in panic and looked at Zhao Wangdan worriedly.
However, at this moment, Zhao Wangdan's mind was completely focused on the battle report.
"Hand…hand it over."
Zhao Wangdan said weakly.
The eunuch quickly stepped forward and took the military report before presenting it on the table.
Zhao Wangdan's hands trembled as he unfolded the military report.
When he saw the contents of the military report, he shouted in exhaustion,""How could this be!"
"Could it be that even Lianpo can't stop the Qin army?!!”
"The heavens are going to destroy Zhao!"
Zhao Wangdan leaned weakly on the table and fainted.
"Great King!"
"Great King!"
"Quick, quickly call the doctor!"
……
After the time for an incense stick to burn.
In King Dan's chambers.
The doctor slowly stood up, and the ministers came forward and said,"How is the king?"
The doctor cupped his hands and said,"The king's anger is attacking his heart. He needs to recuperate!"”
Just as the doctor said this, Zhao Wangdan slowly opened his eyes and said weakly,"Zhao Yi."
Zhao Yi, the Crown Prince of the State of Zhao, heard this and quickly walked forward.
"Father."
"During this period of time, you will temporarily supervise the country on my behalf.”
"Father, your son…"
"You are the Crown Prince of Zhao, the future Crown Prince!"”
"No matter what, you have to take on this responsibility!”
"Right now, Mao Sui is on a diplomatic mission to the various countries. We must not spread the news of Yanmen Prefecture's defeat to the other countries!”
"We must do our best to block this news and let the various countries send troops to attack Qin as soon as possible!”
Zhao Yi struggled, but with Zhao Wangdan's affirmation, he had no choice but to accept.
"Yes!"
Zhao Wangdan nodded his head in relief.""Do it!"
Zhao Yi cupped his hands and bowed before leading the officials out of the palace.
However, Zhao Yi did not notice the hint of resentment that flashed in Zhao Yan's eyes!
……
At Zhao Yan's residence.
Zhao Yan sat on the main seat and drank his wine resentfully.
"Royal Father thinks highly of Zhao Yi in everything. What is the difference between this Young Master and him?”
"Is it because he's the eldest son?"
Then, Zhao Yan drank another cup unwillingly.
When the errand boy Guo Kai saw this, he quickly poured a cup of wine and echoed,"Be it wisdom or courage, Young Master is stronger than the Crown Prince.”
"It's just…Sigh!"
When Zhao Yan heard this, he pulled the frightened Guo Kai and said angrily,"You think so too!"
"You said, just what…"
Seeing that Zhao Yan did not refute his words, Guo Kai continued,"Young Master, please calm down."
"It's just that Zhao Yi is indeed the Crown Prince of Zhao. Since ancient times, it has always been the eldest son who inherits the throne.”
Bang!
Zhao Yan slammed his palm on the table angrily.
"What eldest son inheritance!"
"Didn't he, Ying Yiren, also take Ying Ran's position?”
Guo Kai's eyes moved slightly as he continued,""Young Master, this is what I want to say next!”
"Zhao Yi is indeed the Crown Prince, but it's not impossible for Young Master to become the King of Zhao!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Yan's eyes lit up and he said anxiously,"What's wrong? Do you have a good idea?"
Guo Kai nodded confidently and said with a smile,"Of course I have a way, but I'm afraid that Young Master will scold me, so I didn't dare to say it.”
Zhao Yan waved his hand excitedly." What scolding? You dog slave!"”
"If you have something to say, say it quickly!"
"If you can really help this young master ascend to the throne in the future, this young master will definitely make you the prime minister of Zhao!!!”
When Zhao Yan said this, Guo Kai knelt on the ground excitedly and said respectfully,"I, Guo Kai, am willing to sacrifice my life for Young Master!”
"Hurry up and tell me, what solution do you have?”Zhao Yan asked anxiously.
When Guo Kai heard this, he quickly stood up and whispered into Zhao Yan's ear,""Actually, it's not difficult for Young Master to ascend to the throne.”
"Young Master only needs to send Zhao Yi to the State of Qin as a hostage!”
"With the hatred between Qin and Zhao, if Zhao Yi goes to Qin, he will never be able to return to Zhao!”
Zhao Yi's eyes narrowed and a cold light flashed in them.
"This technique is indeed not bad!"
"However, how do we make Zhao Yi a hostage?”
Guo Kai sneered and cupped his hands."This requires the support of one person and some sacrifices from Young Master.”
"Oh?"
Zhao Yan looked at the confident Guo Kai and was even more puzzled.
"Who is it?"
"This person is naturally Mao Sui. Mao Sui has always been highly regarded by the king. With his support for young master, he is more than capable of speaking a hundred words.”
"Mao Sui?"
Zhao Yan frowned and said in a deep voice,"This Mao Sui has a bad temper and is stubborn. Would he help me?”
Guo Kai chuckled and whispered a few words into his ear.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Yan frowned and said,"Is this necessary?"
Guo Kai cupped his hands and said," Young Master, you have to give up to get something. Besides, how can a mere prostitute compare to the throne?"”
When Zhao Yan heard this, he slowly stood up and weighed the pros and cons in his heart.
After about a moment, Zhao Yan said with a firm expression,"Good! I'll leave this matter to you!"
"Remember, if this young master becomes the king of Zhao, you will be the prime minister of Zhao!”
"Good!" Guo Kai bowed with a happy expression.”
……
At the same time.
In the Qin royal palace.
The news also reached Qin Yiren's ears.
Qin Yiren looked at the contents of the bamboo slips and said in ecstasy,""Cai! Cai!"
"Haha ~"
His loud laughter echoed in the palace for a long time.
Qin Yiren's expression was excited." Men, pass on my decree. Order all the officials to enter the court immediately. I have something important to announce!"”
"Yes!"
The eunuch responded respectfully and quickly retreated.
"Elder brother."
Hearing this, Ying He quickly walked up, cupped his hands and bowed,"Great King."
Qin Yiren walked up to Ying Chen and said excitedly,""Elder brother, the opportunity for the Qin country has come!”
"With this battle, the other five countries will definitely not dare to rashly send troops to my Qin country!”
"Other than that, the State of Zhao will also fall to the bottom of the valley!”
"The Li Si that Grandfather prepared for us will be of great use!”
Ying Chi looked straight into Ying Yiren's eyes and said with a deep face,"Does Your Majesty mean that now is the time to use Li Si?”
"That's right!" Ying Yiren nodded slightly.”
Ying He lowered his head slightly and said after pondering for a while,"Then I will immediately arrange this matter."
"Go!"
