Bad people in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 377 Changes in Zhao State
Lu Buwei's guess was correct. Lord Changping was in a very bad mood, very bad.

He didn't expect that he would be exposed, and now he was found out by the farmer. He also detained the famous sword made by the Chu State at the farmer's house, hoping to get an explanation from the Chu State.

Naturally, Chu State could not send people to kill the farmers, and then turned the pressure to its own side.

However, it was not this incident that made him angry, but his own exposure, which would inevitably make some people in the Chu country be wary, such as his younger brothers, and even his father, if he wanted to plan any more Succession is even more difficult.

"It was my fault that I failed to silence those people."

Xiang Liu opened his mouth and said that it was his own problem. He was sincerely assisting Lord Changping to become the King of Chu. Only in this way could he do more things by occupying the other party's body in the future.

But who would have thought that something unexpected happened. That day, the little fat farmer used a clone method, and he could also arrange it into a huge formation, dragging him for a while and allowing the farmers to run away. Being able to silence oneself makes one so passive.

"It's God's will. Nangong doesn't need to blame himself."

Sighing, Lord Changping looked sad.

Now that I have been exposed, most of my previous plans will be difficult to succeed, and I am completely deceived.

"Your Majesty wants to follow the path of Qin Prince Chu, why not go to the end."

Xiang Liu suddenly said something pointedly, the situation is not too bad, and he has prepared a way.

“But it’s hard to succeed with just the strength I’ve accumulated now.”

Lord Changping understood what he meant, but he only had so little power at the moment, and it was impossible for the Chu people of Qin to follow him to Chu. It would be too difficult to plan for the throne of Chu.

Even if he did not hesitate to bear the infamy, it would be difficult for him to kill his father and ascend to the throne.

Even with Nangong's help, it won't work. Although Nangong is powerful, it is still too weak compared to a country.

It is difficult to deal with the powerful members of the Chu royal family alone.

"Our own strength is not enough, but we can use external forces."

Xiang Liu has great confidence in that ally.

"Nang Gong, please speak."

After thinking for a while, Mr. Changping was moved.

He knew that it was difficult to borrow this kind of external force and that he had to pay a price, but now he had no way out and could only fight for it.

Otherwise, with the appearance of my father and those younger brothers, it would be impossible to save the Chu State.

"The Yin and Yang Family!"

Regarding the ally force, Xiang Liu had communicated with Taiyi God before, and the other party had also made two preparations.

Qin Wangzheng will definitely not be able to cooperate, and we can only look at the Chang'an Jun.

If this side can win and Chang'an Jun Chengyu becomes the new generation of King Qin and leads Qin to unify the world, the Yin and Yang family will naturally follow the destiny and join Qin's plans.

But if Qin Wangzheng wins, the Yin and Yang family can only choose Chu as the next best option.

Moreover, the Yin-Yang family also has a strong foundation in Chu State. Even the casting of Tianwen has the participation of the Yin-Yang family and can be quickly integrated into it.

So the key point is the next decisive battle on Qin's side to see who can win.

"Yin Yang Family, Canglong Qisu!"

With his brows furrowed, Chang Pingjun knew something about the Yin Yang family. They seemed to have been pursuing the secrets of Canglong Qisu, and they were the most mysterious family among the hundreds of scholars.

"If the Yin Yang family can help me become king, I can give them the secrets of the Chu Kingdom."

After thinking for a long time, I finally agreed.

He was not interested in the secret of Canglong Qisu, nor did he think that such an illusory secret could control a country, or even the world. After all, even the Zhou royal family who spread this secret was destroyed.

It doesn't matter if you give that secret to the Yin Yang family, as long as you can become the king.

Otherwise, if even the Chu Kingdom is destroyed, what's the point of keeping that secret?
Seeing that Lord Changping agreed, Xiang Liu was very satisfied. With Lord Changping's cooperation, the Yin and Yang family would definitely gain more, and he could also benefit from it.

"Please give Nangong a hard time. Mr. Pingyuan's plan must be successful."

Turning the topic to the State of Zhao, Lord Changping attached great importance to it.

Even the last time he asked Chu Nan Gong to go to the farmhouse was just incidental. The main purpose was to go to Zhao State to cooperate with Pingyuan Jun to accomplish things.

It's just that something happened at the farmer's side, which made him passive.

However, although the farmer's plan failed, it did not affect the affairs of Zhao State. As long as he attacked the city there, he would have one more national-level ally.

In this way, coupled with Lord Xinling of Wei and Prince Dan of Yan, they can gather the power of the four countries.

Then we will plan for South Korea and Qi to completely unite the six countries and fight against Qin together, which will definitely succeed.

"It's about to start."

Xiang Liu nodded, it was time to go to Zhao Guo.

He was interested in devouring a king.

What they didn't know was that there was also someone planning this change in Zhao State.

……

"This is the true collapse of rituals and music!"

Outside Handan City, Bei Mingzi looked at the city in front of him and sighed.

Only then did he find out that the Zhao State was actually planning to kill the king and ascend the throne.

Ying Zichu's one was explosive enough, and Han Wang'an's one was even more brutal and brutal. It happened to Wei State last time, but it failed, and now Zhao State is not at peace either.

Although the succession to the throne was already bloody, it had never happened so successively.

Perhaps this was the impact of the destruction of the Zhou royal family.

"Aren't you going to save Zhao Wangyan?"

Looking at the disciple beside him who had changed his appearance and clothes, Bei Mingzi could not guess what the kid was thinking.

"My disciple can only come here as Confucian Haoran. The strength that can be unleashed by this identity is limited, and it is impossible for the Confucian side to intervene. How can I fight against so many people by myself?"

Tian Hao replied helplessly.

Naturally, he didn't want Zhao Jie and others' conspiracy to succeed, but unfortunately he learned the information too late, and the layout had already been completed.

And what Zhenri knew was limited. He didn't have time to break the situation, so he could only save some people and get some things.

To put it simply, come here to pick up bargains.

"Master, please go and destroy those bed crossbows. I'll go in and take a look first, and then get a public loser's mechanism bat for retreat."

Without any delay, Tian Hao said something and used Heguang Tongchen to achieve optical invisibility, and further concealed himself with the field, thereby sneaking into Zhao State.

Time was very tight this time, mainly because the information obtained from Luo Wang's memory did not have a specific time for Zhao Jie to take action. Only after arriving this time did he realize that it was already the last minute.

He must make preparations as soon as possible, at least to investigate the current situation in Handan City, especially the Zhao Palace and Guo Kai Mansion.

"It's really full of eyeliner."

Tian Hao frowned after using his mind-reading skills to circle around Guo Kai's mansion.

There were many masters hiding around Guo Kai's mansion. Some were hiding in the surrounding mansions, and some were pretending to be vendors and watching from outside, keeping a close eye on the inside.

Needless to say, the situation at the palace is definitely not optimistic either, or even worse.

Because Zhao Jie himself is a member of the royal family, his father Pingyuan Jun has great prestige, leaving him a lot of capital.

Coupled with the legacy left by Zhao Wangdan, it would be too easy for Zhao Jie to take action.

Although it was not enough for Zhao Jie to kill the king himself and ascend to the throne, it would not be a problem if he just supported Gongzi Jia.

After thinking about it, Tian Hao turned and left, caught an unknown bird, wrote a note and hid it in the bird's feathers, and then controlled it to fly into Guo Kai's mansion.

On the other side, Guo Kai, who was dealing with things in the study, looked at the bird flying on the table in astonishment. His expression changed slightly when he saw the bird take out a rolled note from the plump feathers on its belly.

He looked very cautious and took the piece of paper with his sleeves and palms and unfolded it. When he saw the content inside and the signature of "Haoran" at the end, his expression changed drastically.

"I said that I feel weird lately. It turns out that they want to do such a rebellious thing. How dare they?"

After reading the content on the note again, Guo Kai looked extremely ugly and finally understood what was strange recently.

Recently, he felt that the civil and military officials in the court were a little quiet. Although the difference was not huge, he himself was a sensitive and delicate person, so he still saw some clues of this abnormality.

He didn't care at first. After all, he was very busy during this period. He had already combined with the king's actual situation in many aspects of the Zhao Kingdom to perfect the ten strategies for strengthening Zhao that Li Si had left behind, and was planning to implement them this year. He had no time to worry about anything else.

Who would have thought that those people could hold back such a big move, and they are still at this juncture.

After thinking for a while, Guo Kai got up and went to the secret room. He took out ten books from the secret compartment, took off his pants, tied them to his legs one by one, put on the pants again, and then used the hem of his clothes to cover up, making sure that from the outside Leave the secret room only after you see nothing unusual.

He didn't take action immediately, but waited until nightfall before he took the brocade box with him, and with a complacent look, escorted by a large group of guards, took a carriage to Feixue Pavilion.Because of Chi Ling, the people from Feixue Pavilion have been staying here in Handan to study the kind of literature and dance that Brother Haoran mentioned.

As an important minister of Zhao State today, he is also the confidant of King Zhao. Although he is not obsessed with beauty, he has the same appreciation for beauty.

So I often go to Feixue Pavilion to enjoy the dance, so that the past will not be abrupt and make those who are spying on me suspicious.

After enjoying the dance as usual, Guo Kai met Chi Ling, and with him was the contemporary concubine of Feixue Pavilion, Su Fei.

As the name suggests, a long white dress makes her look like a fairy descending to earth, giving her a sense of otherworldliness.

"Master Guo!"

Chi Ling saluted Guo Kai, but Concubine Su who followed did not say anything and even stared at Guo Kai with vigilant eyes, as if she was worried about what Guo Kai would do to Chi Ling.

Guo Kai's reputation is well known to everyone in Zhao State, especially here in Handan. He is an unprecedented corrupt official and a traitor who has killed countless loyal people. We must be more careful with evil people like this.

Su Fei's appearance made Guo Kai frown. He only wanted to see Chi Ling, and Su Fei's arrival was not what he expected.

"I have something to discuss with Miss Chi Ling. Anyone who doesn't care please leave."

Knowing that this was Feixue Pavilion, and that the other party was the number one concubine of the contemporary Feixue Pavilion, and had a certain influence in Zhao State and even the royal family, Guo Kai behaved politely and used the word "please".

However, Concubine Su was indifferent and her expression became more and more vigilant.

"Sister Su, you go back first."

Chi Ling saw that Guo Kai really had something to do, so he told Concubine Su to go back first.

"I'll wait outside."

Finally, she glared at Guo Kai warily. Su Fei said something and left the room, but she did not leave and stayed outside.

If the traitor really did something bad to Sister Chi Ling, she would rush in immediately.

After waiting like this for a while, the door of the room suddenly opened and Chi Ling walked out.

"Miss Chi Ling, why don't you think about it again?"

Guo Kai's voice came next, with a threatening tone.

"Master Guo's kindness is appreciated with all my heart, but I can't accept it."

Chi Ling replied coldly, and left quickly, with uncontrollable anger in her voice, as if Guo Kai had made extremely unreasonable demands.

"Sister Chiling!"

Su Fei glared at Guo Kai in the room, and then immediately chased after him.

"I don't know how to lift!"

Guo Kai, with a cold face, walked out of the room, snorted coldly and walked out.

The guards guarding outside did not dare to ask, and silently escorted him back to the mansion.

Chi Ling, who returned to the room on the other side, lifted up her long skirt and took off the ten books tied to her legs, leaving Su Fei who followed her a little confused.

When did Sister Chiling tie so many books to her legs?

"This is the result of the hard work of Mr. Guo and the King over the past few years. It is the ten policies of the powerful Zhao State, but something seems to have happened, so I have to keep it for you."

After untying all the books, Chi Ling explained.

In the room before, Guo Kai told her about this set of strong Zhao Shi Ce, and asked her to cooperate with the performance before leaving.

Although Guo Kai didn't say much, she understood that something must have happened, and even Guo Kai could not protect himself, so he came to her to take care of this set of strong Zhao Shi strategies.

"Ten strategies to strengthen Zhao State? Just him?"

Su Fei didn't believe it, and there was even a hint of contempt in her expression.

Who is Guo Kai? Everyone in Handan does not know who he is. What kind of corrupt officials and treacherous sycophants will implement policies to strengthen the Zhao State?

The policy of corrupting Zhao State is pretty much the same.

"You are still too young. You only look at things on the surface. The human heart is the most complex thing in the world. You cannot see through it with your eyes alone."

Shaking her head in amusement, Chi Ling picked up a book of Ten Strategies and flipped through it, curious about this set of Ten Strategies for Strong Zhao.

She has no prejudice against Guo Kai. The main reason is that the person Mr. Haoran can come into contact with is definitely not what the outside world has rumored.

"People like Guo Kai are the same on the outside."

Su Fei muttered, but she was also quite curious, so she also picked up a book and flipped through it.

It's okay if you don't look at it, but as soon as you look at it, your expression can't help but become serious, and you become more and more fascinated.

At the same time, I was wondering, was this really the work of the traitor?
Not to mention the two women who were watching with rapt attention, Guo Kai on the other side did not show any abnormality when he returned to the mansion. It took two days before he went to the palace with a disguised doctor as his entourage and holding a big box. Enter the palace.

The palace guards all knew Guo Kai and knew that he was the king's favorite, so they did not dare to stop him and allowed him to enter the palace.

After making the announcement, Guo Kai met Zhao Wangyan who was drinking and dancing in the palace. There was also Changji, who was now Queen Chang.

"I pay homage to the king!"

Guo Kai knelt down to salute, but made a hidden gesture with his hands.

Zhao Wangyan, who was already a little tipsy, was stunned when he saw that gesture. He was very familiar with this gesture. When he was still the prince, he secretly ran out to have fun. In order to avoid being discovered and punished, he and Guo Kai made some hidden gestures, but they didn't I understand why Guo Kai made this gesture at this time.

"Go back!"

Although he didn't understand, Zhao Wangyan still waved his hand to the dancers and musicians to retreat.

"Your Majesty, I have received some bad news."

After everyone exited, Guo Kaifang knelt forward and spoke sadly and angrily. His voice was so low that if it weren't for the close distance, Zhao Wangyan wouldn't have been able to hear clearly.

"what news?"

Seeing Guo Kai like this, Zhao Wangyan sobered up a little and his expression became more serious.

He and Guo Kai grew up together and knew him very well. His expression and behavior must have meant that something big had happened.

"Someone wants to do what Qin Prince Chu did."

Guo Kai said sadly and angrily, his voice still very low, as if he was afraid of being heard by outsiders.

Queen Chang beside her was stunned for a moment, and her expression became serious.

"Who? Jia'er?"

She was not a fool, and she knew very well what kind of person Guo Kai was. Since she said so, there should be no lie. She immediately thought of her husband's eldest son, Zhao Jia.

"Jia'er doesn't have the courage or ability. Is it that old guy Zhao Jie?"

Zhao Wangyan became more rational and further thought of Uncle Wang.

He himself has received royal education, and in the past few years as King Zhao, his mind has been greatly tempered, and he has an in-depth view of many things, and can see the essence more clearly.

"It must be that old guy. I suspect that they poisoned the king. This time I specially brought a confidant doctor into the palace and asked the king to allow the examination."

Guo Kai has been thinking for the past two days, putting himself in his shoes, and roughly guessed the methods the other party would use.

First of all, direct killing is the biggest hidden danger. It will make those people bear the reputation of patricide and regicide, which will cause endless troubles.

Just look at the current Han Wangan and South Korea, so those people are most likely to imitate Qin Wangzichu's approach. Although it is difficult to hide it from people who are interested, they can at least have an excuse to stabilize the situation.

There are some things that everyone knows very well. As long as they are not brought to the surface, it is just a matter of punishing themselves with three cups of wine.

So he brought a doctor to the palace this time. He paid a lot of money to save his life. If he was assassinated, he could also ask this doctor to save his life.

"That's it!"

With his face darkening, Zhao Wangyan sat up straight and even poured the drink into his hands and wiped his face to make himself more sober and calm.

"Kings!"

The queen's pretty face turned pale. Could it be that those people were really so bold and crazy?
Zhao Wangyan was speechless and stretched out his hand to hold the queen's hand.

As a king, he has his own magnanimity. Even if he faces death, he will not face it calmly, but at least he will not lose his majesty as a king.

This was something he had raised over the years he had been king.

Guo Kai waved his hand, and the doctor who followed in stepped forward to open the box, which was filled with some exquisite gadgets and dozens of small medicine bottles.

This is a tool he specially prepared. As long as King Zhao is secretly poisoned, he will not say how to detoxify it, but he can at least detect some traces.

It’s just that he didn’t know until now that Guo Kai asked him to test King Zhao. King Zhao was poisoned?
