"Giddy! Drive! Go!"
"800 miles, urgent!"
A fast horse rushed into Xianyang City, attracting the attention of countless people.
"Eight hundred miles? Could it be that there was new news from the battlefield in Zhao?”Someone asked.
"Definitely! Lord Marquis of Wuan should have conquered Handan.”
"Take down Handan? In that case, the State of Zhao was destroyed by us?”
Many people began to discuss.
When the news of Li Mu's death spread back to Xianyang, it caused a huge sensation.
Because Li Mu's death meant that Zhao was not far from destruction.
"Your Majesty! Zhao Wangqian has surrendered."
After Zhao Gao received the news, he immediately reported to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng, who was reviewing the government affairs, paused slightly with the pen in his hand, and could not help but raise his head.
"Lord Marquis Wu 'an has reported that after Li Mu died in battle, they have destroyed the main force of the Zhao Country. After half a month of siege, Zhao Wangqian surrendered two days ago."
"Pa!"
Ying Zheng stood up abruptly and threw the bamboo slip in his hand to the side, an excited expression on his face.
" Zhao Wangqian really surrendered?"
Ying Zheng asked again.
"Yes, it was written clearly on the letter, and it was also stamped with the joint seal of Lord Wu An Marquis and General Wang Jian.”
Zhao Gao quickly replied.
"That's great! Pass down my orders, let Marquis Wu An and Wang Jian quickly eliminate all the rebel forces in Zhao. Before the spring of next year, I want to see the flag of Great Qin planted on the bank of Yi River to intimidate the Yan Country!”
After Ying Zheng calmed himself down, he gave another order.
This time, they had mobilized a total of 300,000 troops to attack the State of Zhao.
This important strategic army was also shouldering the mission of destroying the Yan Country.
"Yes!" Zhao Gao said respectfully.
Then, he slowly retreated.
...........
When the news of Zhao Wangqian surrendering and the destruction of the country of Zhao spread, the entire world was shocked.
The Qin Country had actually destroyed the Han Country and the Zhao Country in a year.
Especially the State of Zhao, which couldn't even last half a year. The remaining four countries were completely panicking.
Especially the next target of the Qin Country, the Yan Country, everyone felt even more threatened and terrified.
The powerful Zhao Country had been destroyed. How long could their Yan Country last?
When Yan Dan received the news, his expression changed drastically, and his heart fell into a dilemma.
In the end, determination flashed in his eyes.
There were some things that he had to face eventually.
"Men, go and invite the farmer's chivalrous chief to the residence for a chat.”
When Yan Dan started to act, the Wei Kingdom was also anxious like ants on a hot pan.
"Sikong One, now that the State of Zhao has been destroyed, the State of Qin will definitely not let us go. What should we do next?"
In the palace, the King of Wei asked his most trusted official, Sikong One Wei Yong.
At this moment, the King of Wei's expression changed inexplicably. One moment he was angry, the next moment he was frightened, and the next moment he was confused.
Now, with the help of the network, Wei Yong, who had completely grasped the military and political power of the Wei Country, was also frowning.
As for the Wei Kingdom, just like the King of Wei, he did not want it to perish.
Otherwise, wouldn't the power that he had spent so much effort to control be completely gone?
As long as the Wei Kingdom continued to exist, he would be the respected Sikong One.
Otherwise, after Wei Country was destroyed, he could only be a rich old man.
If they were even more unlucky, their families might even be destroyed.
After all, the fate of the Han nobles was a lesson for them.
After a long time, Wei Yong's expression changed slightly. He thought for a moment and said,""Your Majesty, the reputation of Marquis Wu 'an has long since spread throughout the countries. If we can gift some beauties to Marquis Wu An, the situation should be able to turn for the better.”
"Sikong One, you mean you want me to marry Marquis Wu 'an?”
Hearing this, the King of Wei frowned and said unhappily,""Even if it's a marriage alliance, isn't the more suitable partner the King of Qin? So what if I'm married to Marquis Wu 'an?”
"Most importantly, I don't have a daughter of the right age.”
"Uh…"
For a moment, Wei Yong didn't know what to say.
His original intention was to just find some random beauties. After all, Marquis Wu 'an could even lay his hands on the boss of Purple Orchid Pavilion, so he probably wouldn't mind the beauty's background.
However, the misunderstanding of the King of Wei reminded Wei Yong that a marriage alliance with the Qin country was indeed a good idea.
Wei Yong pondered for a moment and said again,""Your Majesty, although you don't have a suitable daughter, the imperial clan does!”
"As long as the king chooses from the royal family and gives the princess a title, won't that be enough?”
"Moreover, we can also marry two cities to the Qin country. At that time, if the Qin country wants to attack us, we still have to think carefully!”
Upon hearing these words, the King of Wei revealed an expression of sudden realization.
Wei Yong's words made sense. If the two countries were to marry, it would be difficult for the Qin country to find an excuse to attack them.
Even if they were to be beaten up in the end, they would still have a lot of time to accumulate their strength.
"Very good. Sikong One, you didn't betray my trust.”The King of Wei nodded in satisfaction.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty!" Wei Yong quickly said.
The King of Wei pondered for a while, then suddenly looked at Wei Yong and asked,""Sikong One, I remember you have a daughter, right?”
"Ah?"
Wei Yong was stunned. Why was he suddenly involved?
"I do have a daughter, Xian Xian, who is now over sixteen years old.”
Hearing this, the King of Wei smiled." Sikong One, you happen to be a member of the royal family of the Wei Kingdom. So, I'll make your daughter a princess. What do you think, Sikong One?"”
"This…"
Wei Yong felt uneasy.
How could he have forgotten about this?
It wasn't that Wei Yong couldn't bear to part with his daughter. After all, in his eyes, his daughter was just a tool.
However, he still wanted to use his daughter to complete another matter.
"What's wrong? Doesn't Sikong One want to share my burden?”Seeing that Wei Yong didn't answer, the King of Wei's tone became low.
Wei Yong quickly stepped forward and expressed his loyalty,""It is my great honor to receive the king's bestowal. I am deeply grateful, so how can I not accept it?”
"Very good. It seems that you are still loyal, Sikong One.”The King of Wei finally smiled.
"However, Your Majesty, I still have something to say.”Wei Yong thought for a moment and spoke again.
"What else do you want to say, dear minister?" The King of Wei asked.
"This subject feels that a marriage alliance with Marquis Wu An is more suitable.”Wei Yong braced himself.
The King of Wei raised his eyebrows in confusion." Why?”
"I have two reasons for doing this.”
Wei Yong's brain spun quickly and he quickly gave his reason.
"Firstly, Marquis Wu 'an Ying Chen is Qin Wang Zheng's uncle and holds an important position in Qin Wang's heart. Furthermore, Marquis Wu An was still unmarried, so it was the right time to marry him.”
"Moreover, our Wei Kingdom's princess marrying him is not considered humiliating. With his reputation as a playboy, he will definitely agree.”
"In addition, Qin Wangzheng's current concubine is the princess of Chu. If Xian Xian were to marry over, she would most likely be suppressed by the Chu faction and would not be of much help to the Wei Kingdom.”
Wei Yong looked up at the King of Wei.
The King of Wei pondered for a moment and found that what Wei Yong said made sense.
Ever since the marriage between the Qin and Chu countries, the Chu family had occupied an important position in the Qin country's royal court.
For example, the current Left Prime Minister of the State of Qin, Lord Chang Ping, was a member of the royal family of the State of Chu, and was deeply trusted by Ying Zheng.
Sikong One, go on." The King of Wei said in a deep voice.
Wei Yong heaved a sigh of relief and continued.
"Secondly, did Your Majesty realize that the most important person in destroying Han and Zhao is Marquis Wu 'an?”
"Nonsense, if it wasn't for Marquis Wuan, how could Han and Zhao be destroyed so quickly?”The King of Wei said unhappily.
The Six Nations had already experienced the terror of Ying Chen, Marquis of Wu 'an, many years ago.
Marquis Wuan's contribution points had been earned from the Six Nations.
