Great Zhou Tianzi

327 Taking Zhao Kingdom

After hearing the man in black's words, Zhao Wang was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand, and cursed: "Guo Kai, Zhao Mu, you two white-eyed wolves, you are so kind to you all day. You are going to betray me!"

This is not surprising, because the man in black brought back the conversation between Guo Suiping and Ji Jie intact, including the two sentences "Let King Zhao pour you wine and let his concubines dance for fun".

After a brief moment of anger, King Zhao regained his senses, gritted his teeth and asked, "Are you sure that guy belongs to Guo Kai, and not Ji Jie's countermeasures?"

"It's definitely Guo Kai's man!" The man in black nodded and said, "His name is Guo Suiping, Handan Lord Bo who just took office last year, Guo Kai's domestic slave, and a loyal running dog. After sneaking into Handan, he went directly to Guo's mansion!"

Recalling what Guo Kai said in the court two days ago, King Zhao believed it, and said bitterly: "He is looking for a way out for himself! It is understandable to find a way out for himself, but it is too much for a seller to seek glory. Come on, someone, tell me about Guo Kai and Zhao Mu, let them enter the palace quickly, and tell them that I have urgent matters to discuss with them!"

"Slow down!" The man in black bowed his head and whispered something in King Zhao's ear.

King Zhao nodded and said, "That's it!"

Half an hour later, outside the Zhao Palace, Guo Kai and Zhao Mu's carriage met.

"Xiangguo, the king called you and me into the palace late at night, so something happened, right?" Zhao Mu asked cautiously.

Guo Kai waved his hand with a smile, and said: "I bought the eunuch who sent the order just now. According to him, the king has the idea of ​​surrendering. He asked you and me to enter the palace just to discuss this matter!"

Zhao Mu is overjoyed. Although surrendering is a shameful thing, it is better than losing his life. It is nothing more than changing his master. Anyway, he is a slave. Who should he be? With his power in Handan City And prestige, Ji Jie also has to consider rewarding an official position, even if he is no longer an official, he can spend the rest of his life comfortably.

Guo Kai and Zhao Mu had the same idea, they had long expected King Zhao to have the idea of ​​surrender.

The two walked into King Zhao's study together, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times. Normally, King Zhao would say in a timely manner: "Ai Qing is flat!", but today they didn't say anything, and the two of them even stood up halfway. I had no choice but to kneel down again.

Zhao Wang had a smile on his face that they couldn't understand, and the two chief officials attributed it to a helpless smile.

"You two, what else do you have to say?" Zhao Wang asked coldly.

The two of them were taken aback, wondering what it meant, you haven't spoken yet, how can we express our opinion?

"Speak, why are you pretending to be confused, do you have to make sure you understand what you said?" King Zhao said displeased.

The two misunderstood King Zhao's meaning again. How could a great king say the word "surrender" on his lips? Everyone wants to save face, and the two looked at each other, secretly delighted.

Guo Kai said with a smile: "The matter has come to this, I think there is nothing wrong with doing this, at least it can save some people, it is also an expedient measure!"

"Yes, yes, what Guo Xiangguo said is exactly what I want to say!" Zhao Mu didn't want to be left behind, and immediately added: "As the saying goes, a man who knows the current affairs is a hero, and right now it is undoubtedly the best choice! "

The reason why King Zhao asked the eunuch to disclose the "wind" to Guo Kai was because he was afraid that he would suspect something and refuse to come to the palace, but they were misunderstood by the two.

As for King Zhao, he thought these two guys had nothing to fear, and even admitted the deal with Ji Jie in front of him.

"Hehe, you two are very upright!" King Zhao snorted, "Do you think that widows can't do anything to you if you hold the military power in your hands? Tell you, this is the palace, and everyone only listens to me of!"

"Don't dare dare!" The two of them were a little confused, so the face changed too quickly.

"Come on, take it down for me!" King Zhao shouted loudly, and dozens of Ting Wei, armed with dangling knives and guns, rushed in and firmly controlled the two of them.

Zhao Mu panicked, and also panicked when he came here, and hurriedly asked: "My lord, what's going on, we are all loyal ministers..."

"Loyal ministers, you are loyal enough!" Zhao Wang waved his hand and said, "Pull it out and hack it to death, immediately!"

"What the hell is going on, my lord..."

"Your Majesty, I am wronged..."

"Ah...ah..."

After a burst of screams, two Ting Wei came in holding the heads of Guo Kai and Zhao Mu respectively, and asked King Zhao to "inspect" the goods!

"It deserves it!" King Zhao relieved the hatred in his heart, and ordered the court officers: "Dug a hole for them and bury them, and put all their family members in prison. Tomorrow morning, the soldiers and civilians in the city will be notified, saying that the two of them are the most evil and have been beheaded by the widow! "

"Yes!"

During the court meeting, a group of ministers were trembling, most of them were the henchmen of Guo Kai and Zhao Mu, these people never expected that King Zhao would trick them into the palace last night, and then directly execute them.

The old eunuch read in a high voice: "In view of the heinous crimes of Guo Kai and Zhao Mu, the king has an order to punish the nine clans!"

Killing the two of them still felt incomprehensible, so Wang Zhao sentenced the nine clans of the two of them to death, and a group of ministers quickly fell to their knees and shouted: "I will swear to the death to stay in Handan, and I am willing to live and die with the city! "

Why are you shouting these things? Isn’t it because Guo Kai and Zhao Mu are accused of collaborating with the enemy? Why don’t you hurry up and declare your “stance”!

"That's right, you and I are united, there is no hurdle we can't get through!" Zhao Wang suddenly changed the subject and said: "The widow wants to surrender to Ji Jie, who wants to go out of the city to negotiate with him on behalf of the widow?"

Everyone was stunned, thinking that there was something wrong with their ears!

You look at me, I look at you, so that everyone can't get it wrong, right? The nine clans of the Zhuren family who were still angry just now, why did they talk about surrender now?

"What are you doing? Could it be that the widow's words are not clear enough?" King Zhao asked.

"I don't know much about it!" The loyal ministers lowered their heads together.

It's not that King Zhao never thought about surrendering, but it's just that Zhou Jun just besieged the city and played some tricks. Wouldn't it be too embarrassing for him to announce his surrender, at least he has to fight a battle first!Who would have thought that Guo Kai and Zhao Mu would use him as a bargaining chip to surrender, this made him unbearable, so he killed him.

After killing Guo Kai and Zhao Mu, Zhao Wang was relieved a lot. In his opinion, even if it is a surrender, he has to say that. Others do not have this right, and it is impossible to give the benefits to others.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to approach Mr. Zhao Wen!" A minister known for his integrity stepped forward and said, "I hope that the King will clearly state what to talk about."

The king of Zhao had already thought it over and said: "As long as Ji Jie agrees to three demands of the widow, the widow will order to surrender. First, Ji Jie must admit that he is the son-in-law of Zhao Guo and keep the Zhao Guozong Temple; second, keep the royal family members. privileges, and the official positions of officials of Zhao State; the third..."
