Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Page 516

Queen Li was overjoyed when she heard the words, lightly pecked King Zhao's face, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is indeed wise and powerful, and my concubines love you to death."

As a young and vigorous man, how could King Zhao bear this?

After this incident got out, it naturally caused another disturbance in Zhao Guo's political arena.

"Brother, come, let's have a toast, let's celebrate!"

In Zhou's mansion, Zhou Shaoliang raised his wine glass with a smile.

Zhou Shaofen was obviously in a good mood, and raised his glass with a smile: "Come on, cheers!"

The two brothers toasted at the same time and drank it all in one gulp.

For these two brothers, Zhao Kuo's accident is definitely what they want to see the most, especially now that Zhao Kuo has lost the official positions of dozens of generals at one time, and his power in the army has suffered a serious setback.

Zhou Shaoliang said with a smile: "From now on, it will be impossible for Zhao Kuo to control the army like before. Hahaha, I am happy to think about it."

Zhou Shaofen nodded approvingly, and said: "Yes, yes, Lord Wu Xin used to have the support of the army, so the king has always been reluctant to touch him.

Now that Li Mu's betrayal had directly broken his most powerful arm in the army, it would be much easier to deal with Wu Xinjun next. "

There are actually two reasons why it has been difficult for Zhao Kuo's political opponents to win over the years.

First, Zhao Kuo's ability to calculate others is indeed very strong.

Second, Zhao Kuo's combat exploits are too strong, the army supports him very much, and Zhao Guo cannot do without Zhao Kuo's victory.

But things are different now. Li Mu's betrayal has torn a big crack in the basics of Zhao Kuo's army. At the same time, Li Mu himself is also a famous general who has not failed so far, so he has the possibility of replacing Zhao Kuo.

When Zhao Kuo's aura as the "God of War" was weakened, Zhao Kuo was no longer the person who did not worship the golden body in the political arena.

Zhou Shaoliang laughed and said: "Your Majesty is really wise, I thought he was just a little boy, but I never thought that Your Majesty would have such means.

Brother, tell me, will the king directly attack Wu Xinjun in the future? "

Zhou Shaofen pondered for a while, and said: "It's not impossible, the king seems to trust Wu Xinjun on the surface, but he is actually a very tyrannical person.

Do you remember what Queen Zhou told us before?

The king is always ready to kill people to vent his anger in the court. Such a person looks smiling, but he can't tell when he will kill several important officials to sacrifice the flag. "

Zhou Shaoliang's body shook slightly, and he couldn't help but said: "If we follow this statement, aren't we also in danger?"

Zhou Shaofen couldn't help but hesitate when he heard the words, and after a while he said: "It shouldn't be so, as long as we are loyal to the king, the problem shouldn't be big.

An ambitious person like Wu Xinjun is the one who will be eliminated by the king! "

Zhou Shaoliang also recovered a smile on his face, and said: "Yes, yes, yes.

No matter what happens to him in the future, now that Zhao Kuo is suppressed, this is the moment when our Zhou family is happy, hahaha! "

Laughter kept echoing in Zhou's lobby.

In the study of Zhao Kuo's mansion, Su Li also had a smile on his face.

"My lord, this time our replacement was very successful, and all the Nightingale personnel are already in place.

They have all been professionally trained, and they will be closely united by Li Mu's side in the coming time, and they will definitely not let the king and the Zhou family see any flaws. "

Zhao Kuo smiled and nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, very good."

The so-called betrayal of Li Mu is actually a play, a play for King Zhao and Zhou Shaofen.

Why did Zhao Kuo want to play this scene?

The answer is also very simple, because Zhao Kuo is too strong now!Take a look at the situation before Li Mu did not "betray". At that time, Zhao Kuo was the Prime Minister, and he occupied four of the six important ministers. The two major military ministers were all Zhao Kuo's people. A "Military God"-level figure has a high prestige among Zhao's army.

Such Zhao Kuo, it is not an exaggeration to say that the power is in the hands of the government and the public, and it only needs to go one step further, it is enough to threaten the regime of King Zhao.

As long as Zhao Wang is not a fool, he will definitely feel jealous of Zhao Kuo in this situation and suppress him in various ways.

If Zhao Kuo wants to confront Zhao Wang's suppression head-on, then a civil war in Zhao is inevitable.

Therefore, Zhao Kuo came directly to push the boat along the way. Don't you, King Zhao, think that I am too powerful?

Well, I will take the initiative to let Li Mu "betray" me, and let Li Mu go to seek refuge with you, isn't it all right?

Since there was already a traitor like Zhou Shaofen, Li Mu, the "second" traitor, seemed natural and could be understood by King Zhao.

Then, Zhao Kuo was able to use Li Mu's name to continue to firmly hold Zhao's military power, and at the same time still have four seats among Zhao's important ministers.

What's even more wonderful is, doesn't King Zhao now feel that Li Mu is one of his own?

Then King Zhao will definitely help Li Mu with all his strength, and let Li Mu develop various forces.

As for Li Mu's power, it was actually Zhao Kuo's power.

This is tantamount to King Zhao trying his best to help Zhao Kuo develop his power!This is Zhao Kuo's calculation.

Do you think you're limiting me?

Sorry, your so-called restrictions are actually helping me.

You thought you were on the second floor?

Sorry, I'm already on the fifth floor.

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Now, we just need to wait until Li Mu has gained a firm foothold, and our victory is in sight."

The word "victory" that Zhao Kuo used sounds abrupt, but it sounded like some kind of signal to Su Li's ears, which instantly ignited the flames in Su Li's eyes.

Su Li said tremblingly: "The meaning of the Lord is" Zhao Kuo laughed, and patted Su Li on the shoulder: "Don't you think that the word "Master" has been called for a long time, but it is actually a bit tired?

Perhaps, it is almost time for you to use a new word to call me. "

When Su Li heard this, the light in his eyes became more and more hot.

Change a new word, what word?

Su Li felt that this word should be King!

Chapter 999 The eunuch's order discovered Zhao Kuo's thoughts (third update)

Xianyang City, the Palace of King Qin.

After hearing the news reported by the ministers, Ying Zichu couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, it's really great, I didn't expect Zhao Kuo to have today!"

For Ying Zichu, the name Zhao Kuo is truly a nightmare existence, and now hearing that Zhao Kuo is deflated, Ying Zichu can't wait to hold a celebration banquet directly.

Under Ying Zichu's seat, although Lu Buwei and Mao Sui sat there expressionless, their hearts had already begun to feel uneasy.

As a subordinate far away in Xianyang, Zhao Kuo certainly would not tell them this secret strategy, so they also felt that Zhao Kuo was really going to be suppressed by King Zhao?

Ying Zichu gloated and said, "That boy, King Zhao, seems to really want to take power back from Zhao Kuo's hands step by step.

Let me tell you this, the widow, after Zhao Wang really got the power, Zhao Kuo's death will come! "

Everyone is a king, Ying Zichu is of course very clear about Zhao Wang's thoughts, and is very much looking forward to that day!A quarter of an hour later, on the carriage leaving the palace, Lu Buwei looked at Mao Sui with a serious face: "Tell me, will the situation that the king said really happen?"

Mao Sui gave the answer almost without thinking: "Absolutely not."

This immediately cheered Lu Buwei up: "The lord has already explained something to you?"

Mao shook his head: "No."

Lu Buwei immediately became angry: "Since you don't even have any information, why do you say it's okay?"

Mao Sui looked at Lu Buwei strangely, and said: "For so many years, the master has passed through many challenges, when did you see the master fail?

Let me tell you, you just need to sit still and wait for the news of the Lord's victory from Handan City. "

Lu Buwei stared at Mao Sui, wanting to say something, but couldn't.

Because Lu Buwei suddenly discovered that what Mao Sui said seemed quite reasonable.

For so many years, Zhao Kuo's enemies have appeared one after another, and various difficulties have appeared in front of Zhao Kuo again and again, trying to swallow Zhao Kuo.

But what about the results?

The result is that Zhao Kuo's enemies have become history, but Zhao Kuo has climbed to the pinnacle of power step by step.

Lu Buwei took a deep breath and said after a long time: "Sometimes I don't even know whether your absolute confidence in the lord is a good thing or a bad thing."

Mao Sui smiled slightly and said: "We only need to do things, and leave the rest to the lord!"

Handan City, King Zhao's Palace.

Zhao Wang looked at the eunuch Ling in front of him, and said lightly: "Eunuch Ling, I want you to do something, you must do this thing yourself, and don't let the third person know."

Eunuch Ling's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this veteran will never disclose this matter to a third person."

King Zhao nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's good.

It's like this, you send a few people, and the widow will arrange for them to enter the general's mansion to do things.

These people must keep a close eye on Li Mu's every move, especially pay attention to whether Li Mu is secretly colluding with other people, understand? "

The eunuch Ling was taken aback and said, "Your Majesty thinks there is something wrong with the General?"

King Zhao chuckled and said, "How is it possible?

The widow just wants to be prepared. "

The eunuch Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I understand, do you have any other orders from the King?"

This sentence itself was just a routine question, but eunuch Ling didn't expect that King Zhao really gave an answer.

"Go find some dead warriors with high martial arts skills, dead warriors, do you understand?"

Eunuch Ling nodded immediately, and then said, "Does Your Majesty have any requirements for these dead men?"

Zhao Wang shook his head slightly, and said: "There is no requirement, but you must be obedient, and there should be no hesitation when letting them take action."

When he said this, there was a murderous intent in King Zhao's eyes!Eunuch Ling's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, "Old minister understands, let's make arrangements now."

After a while, the eunuch Ling returned to his room, ordered the doors and windows to be closed, and sat quietly in the room alone, meditating.

This is the way eunuch Ling often likes to think when encountering difficult problems for many years.

Eunuch Ling felt something was wrong.

For eunuch Ling, after all, he has been in control of the palace for so many years, and it is very easy to arrange a wave of dead men by virtue of his power.

But the problem is that there are dead men in the palace itself.

Moreover, Zhao Guo's imperial guards are also loyal, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are a group of "official dead soldiers".

Zhao Wang has these two powers that can be called at any time, but he let the eunuch order secretly train another dead soldier. What does this mean?

Combined with King Zhao's previous order to request Eunuch Ling to send someone to secretly monitor Li Mu, a conclusion gradually emerged from Eunuch Ling's mind.

"Could it be that Your Majesty is already planning to attack Lord Wu Xin?"

The purpose of monitoring Li Mu is to ensure Li Mu's loyalty to King Zhao.

And the dead man is easier to understand, it is to attack Zhao Kuo secretly!Why not use the dead soldiers in the court?

Maybe it was because he was worried about being noticed by Queen Li.

As for the imperial guards, let alone, although the imperial guards are indeed loyal to King Zhao, Zhao Kuo is the god of Zhao Guojun, and his prestige in the hearts of all soldiers is extremely high. Let the imperial guards take action against Zhao Kuo. is very bad.

Thinking of this, eunuch Ling broke out in a cold sweat.

How to do?

This is actually a very serious question.

All along, eunuch Ling belonged to Zhao Kuo's secret ally, there is no doubt about it.

But the problem is that the eunuch Ling at that time actually wanted to use Zhao Kuo's power to eliminate the threats to the eunuch Ling in Zhao's political arena.

Now, the person who wants to attack Zhao Kuo has become Zhao Wang, and this matter is completely different.

That's King Zhao!If eunuch Ling helped Zhao Kuo in this matter, it would be tantamount to disobeying King Zhao and treason!Drops of cold sweat could not help but form in Eunuch Ling's mind.

It seems that this time it should not be able to help Wu Xinjun.

Perhaps, we should think of a way to make a cut with Wu Xinjun in advance, so as not to implicate the eunuch and order himself when Wu Xinjun falls!Eunuch Ling thought so, and subconsciously stretched out his hand towards the bell on the table.

As long as it is pressed, the eunuch's order can summon loyal subordinates and formally arrange a wave of alienation and understanding of Zhao Kuo.

But just as his hand was about to press down, Eunuch Ling suddenly froze again.

Because the eunuch Ling thought of another thing.
