Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 186

Zhao Wuming followed Huang Hao to the palace in a hurry, and just after entering the palace gate, he heard a voice: "Uncle...".

"See Prince".Seeing Zhao Yong and Xue Zimo coming from the front, Huang Hao bowed quickly.

Zhao Wuming was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Zhao Yong with some doubts: "Yong'er?".

"I haven't seen you for a long time. I don't know how my uncle is doing this time."Zhao Yong asked Zhao Wuming, his eyes were full of surprises.

Looking at Zhao Yong's surprised gaze, Zhao Wuming smiled and praised him: "Not bad, I have grown up. It seems that Yong'er has become a prince and has matured."

"Thank you uncle for your praise, but I don't know why my uncle disappeared during this period of time. My nephew went to the mansion and was blocked by guard Sun."Zhao Yong thought of the previous times when he went to Zhao Wuming, and complained to him.

During this period of time, I have been traveling between Seoul and Fuchu, so how can I have time to meet guests.Zhao Wuming thought for a while, and explained to Zhao Yong: "In the past, I led the army to defeat 20 Anyang soldiers, and I was exhausted physically and mentally, so I wanted to clean up for a while."

"Then seeing my uncle here today, does it mean that I can go to my uncle's house in the future?"Zhao Yong questioned Zhao Wuming.

Zhao Wuming nodded slowly: "As long as you didn't play truant."

"I have a request, I wonder if my uncle can agree."Seeing that Zhao Wuming agreed, Zhao Yong and Xue Zimo looked at each other and smiled.

Zhao Wuming looked at the serious Zhao Yong in puzzlement: "Tell me about it."

"I heard that my uncle rides Zhan Wushuang, and it happens that my nephew loves this. I wonder if my nephew can go to my uncle's house tomorrow to compete with my uncle."Zhao Yong looked at Zhao Wuming with anticipation in his eyes.

Zhao Wuming looked surprised, and asked Zhao Yong: "Are you challenging my uncle?".

"It is a competition and a challenge."Zhao Yong had an expression of eagerness to try.

Zhao Wuming looked at Zhao Yong, and deliberately meditated again: "Since it is a challenge, how can uncle refuse. Tomorrow should be fine. If you and Zimo are on school leave tomorrow, you can come to Fuchu to compete with uncle for a riding competition."

"Then we'll make a deal."Zhao Yong was overjoyed, and quietly made a decision in his heart that he must take Xue Zimo to skip class tomorrow.

Huang Hao couldn't help interjecting: "Prince, Your Majesty summoned the Fourth Prince of Cheng Wang to discuss state affairs. If you stay here for too long, I'm afraid your Majesty will be displeased."

"Since uncle is busy, it's inconvenient for Yong'er to disturb you, see you tomorrow."Hearing Huang Hao's urging, Zhao Yong didn't force him to stay, bowed to Zhao Wuming and walked forward with Zimo.

Watching Zhao Yong and Xue Zimo leave, Zhao Wuming recalled the proposal just now: "Compete with the orphan?".

"The prince's stubbornness made the fourth son of King Cheng laugh."Huang Hao listened to Zhao Wuming's words and explained to him with a smile.

Zhao Wuming didn't answer, just followed Huang Hao to a palace.

Outside the main hall, Huang Hao bowed to Zhao Wuming: "Your Majesty has just come down to court, and he is now in this study, please invite the Fourth Prince of Cheng Wang to go in alone."

Zhao Wuming nodded slightly, and walked directly into the hall.

With the sound of footsteps, Zhao Yu put the bamboo slips on the desk.Looking up in the direction of the voice, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Fourth brother, you are finally willing to see the widow today."

"The elder brother called, why would the younger brother not come?"Zhao Wuming replied with a smile.

Zhao Yu rolled up the bamboo slips on the case table and put them aside: "The widow has been on the throne until now. The fourth younger brother always thanked guests behind closed doors, which made the widow quite sad. You and my brother, why bother to be so cautious."

"Brother, thanking guests behind closed doors is not because of elder brother. It is all because the soldiers who conquered 20 Anyang were too tired some time ago."Zhao Wuming explained to Zhao Yu that he didn't expect that Zhao Yu would have misunderstood him by leaving the mansion.

Zhao Yu listened to Zhao Wuming's explanation, and asked in disbelief: "If that's the case, why do you always delay when the widow asks you to choose a fief?".

"After the current situation stabilizes, it is not too late to choose a fief."Zhao Wuming spoke to Zhao Yu without thinking.

When the word "current situation" was mentioned, Zhao Yu was silent.After a long while, he looked at Zhao Wuming: "If you don't sit on the throne, you don't know the pain. Now the world has become a world of great conflict. If you can't calm down the country as soon as possible, I'm afraid that the disaster of destroying the country is near."

"Just now in the restaurant, I saw the envoys of Qi and Qin mocking the envoys of Wei. I don't know what happened to the battle between Qi and Wei."Zhao Wuming thought of the scene in the restaurant just now, and asked Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu thought for a while and was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he asked Zhao Wuming: "Fourth brother has closed the door to thank guests. I don't know. Now there is a person who is famous all over the world. Do you know who it is?"

"Who?".Zhao Wuming asked Zhao Yu without thinking.

Zhao Yu slowly said six words to Zhao Wuming: "Sun Bin, the military advisor of the State of Qi".

"Sun Bin?".Zhao Wuming was taken aback, didn't the name of Sun Bin spread to the world after this battle?Why did it come out at this time.

Zhao Yu seemed to have thought of something, looked at Zhao Wuming who was in a daze, and sighed with emotion: "Sun Bin used the strategy of attacking him to save him, which exhausted the Wei army, and set up an ambush on the only way to kill Wei's soldiers in one fell swoop. Pang Juan had nothing to do with this man, In order to show the decline. It was a good battle between Qi and Wei, but abruptly turned into a battle between the high-ranked disciples of Guigu and the Central Plains. The strategy of war has made the world overwhelmed."

"Ghost Valley?".Zhao Wuming subconsciously read these two words.

Zhao Yu nodded slowly, and went on to say: "With the great battle between Pang Juan and Sun Bin, their mentorship has also been rumored to the world. All countries sent envoys to Guigu to ask to see Guiguzi, but unfortunately there was no chance to see him. Yesterday the widow sent The messenger who went to Guigu sent news that Guiguzi was missing, but they learned from the villagers that there are four disciples in Guigu. Apart from Pang Juan and Sun Bin, two other people are missing."

"But Zhang Yi and Su Qin?".Zhao Wuming blurted out these two names.

Zhao Yu was taken aback, and looked at Zhao Wuming in confusion: "How did you know that?".

"When the State of Wei returned to Handan, I accidentally met Pang Juan, the general of the State of Wei, and I learned about it while chatting with him."Zhao Wuming came to his senses and explained to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu suddenly realized, and then smiled: "So that's the case, have you heard about Su Qin's going to Qin?".

"Su Qin went to Qin?".Zhao Wuming had no reflection on this matter at all.

Zhao Yu slowly explained to Zhao Wuming: "Just when the name of Guigu was spreading all over the world, an interesting story came from Qin State. It was said that King Qin had no eyes, but Su Qin went to Qin but was expelled, making Su Qin leave without a trace."

"I don't know what kind of expression the King of Qin has at this time."Zhao Wuming imagined the scene where Su Qin was driven away, and couldn't help but smile.

Zhao Yu shook his head slightly, as if he had thought of another piece of news, and said to Zhao Wuming: "I'm not the King of Qin, how can I know what kind of mood the King of Qin will be in. It's just that I have heard another rumor."

"Appreciate further details".Zhao Wuming suddenly felt that celebrities like gossip seem to be good.

Zhao Yu thought for a while, and said slowly to Zhao Wuming: "I heard that Zhang Yi has a good tongue, and went to Yue to speak swords with the king of Yue, which caused a war between Chu and Yue. Later there were rumors that Zhang Yi was going As an official of the state of Chu, this gift was specially prepared for the king of Chu. It’s just that this news has never been confirmed.”

"It is rare to move a country with one word from ancient times to the present."Zhao Wuming was a little emotional.

After Zhao Yu finished talking about the people of Guigumen, he paused for a while, and his eyes showed hope: "The reason why Wei is facing the current predicament is because of the lack of long-term strategies. And my country, Zhao, is not short of long-term strategies. If we can win Su Qin, One of them, Zhang Yi, planned a long-term strategy for our country of Zhao. Our country of Zhao has been committed to it, so why worry about misfortune. It’s just that the whereabouts of the two are elusive, and the situation is extremely critical, so we can only put this matter aside for the time being.”

"Long strategy?".Zhao Wuming pondered, what is the long-term strategy for Seoul?Exterminate Loufan, unite with Yanzhao, Pingdonghu and Huns and then what? .

Zhao Yu also fell into deep thought, and the atmosphere was a little dull for a while, and he looked at Zhao Wuming for a while: "This time you are called here to discuss the matter of the third younger brother's sending an envoy."

"I don't know what my elder brother thinks about this matter."Zhao Wuming did not reply immediately, but asked Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu thought for a while, and looked at Zhao Wuming: "Our country can't stand turmoil now. If it can be resolved peacefully, or if it can be delayed, it will be a good thing for me. I'm afraid that my third brother can't wait so long. Therefore, On the one hand, I want to appease the third brother as much as possible to delay the time, and on the other hand, I want to find foreign aid."

"I don't know who the foreign aid my brother is talking about is."Seeing that Zhao Yu had made up his mind, Zhao Wuming asked him.

Zhao Yu had a hesitant look on his face, obviously not yet fully made up his mind: "Looking at all the countries in the world today, only foreign races can borrow their power, so...".

"So the eldest brother asked Lou Fan and Lin Hu to send envoys."Zhao Wuming heard the meaning of Zhao Yu's words, and asked him.

Zhao Yu nodded slowly, and explained to Zhao Wuming: "Now there is information that the third brother has already won Zhongshan Kingdom. If I don't find foreign aid, I am afraid that I will definitely lose. Xiangguo Wuwu proposed, and I agreed ".

"I don't know, big brother, but you have heard about what happened outside the east gate of Handan today."Zhao Wuming's brows gradually raised, and he was very disgusted with Zhao Yu's use of the power of Lou Fan and Lin Hu.

Zhao Yu didn't know what he was thinking, and he said to Zhao Wuming for a while: "Just now Xiangguo has brought the envoys of Lou Fan and Lin Hu to come, so I naturally know about it."

"Then I don't know how big brother plans to deal with this matter?"Zhao Wuming asked without thinking.

Zhao Yu thought about the scene of appeasing the envoys of Lin Hu and Lou Fan just now, and explained to Zhao Wuming: "Don't worry, fourth brother, the envoys of the two clans will be appeased by the widow, let him go over this matter."

"Brother, you know how much misery it will bring to the people in the north once the armies of the two tribes go south."Zhao Wuming asked Zhao Yu unwillingly.

Zhao Yu thought about it, but just sighed: "In today's world, each country has its own affairs. The domestic princes have also stated that they will not participate in this matter. Fourth brother, how do you let me solve this dangerous situation?"

"Since the eldest brother insists on this, the younger brother has other things to say, so let's leave first."After Zhao Wuming finished speaking, he stood up and saluted Zhao Yu, then turned and left.

Zhao Yu hurriedly stood up and persuaded: "Fourth brother...".

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Wuming had already walked out.Zhao Yu looked at the front thoughtfully, and couldn't calm down for a long time.I didn't expect the fourth brother's reaction to this matter to be so great. Could it be that I was really wrong?But if he is not so decisive, how can he calm down Zhao Fan in Daijun.
