Competing

Chapter 127 Visit by the King of Han
"King Han, please wait a moment!"

"Who is calling?" Han Wangcheng asked in a low voice in the carriage.

The driver of the car glanced back and reported: "Back to the king, it is General Hou Yin of Shaoxing!"

"Stop the car!"

The carriage stopped, and many guards also stopped, as if Zhang Wang was doing a good job of security.When Han Wangcheng leaned out of the car window, Yin Xu had already rode up to him, bowed his hands and said, "Yin Xu sees King Han!"

Saluting on horseback, General Yin obviously cut corners, but Han Wangcheng didn't care.Although he is the king of Han, he is almost a polished commander, and now he is hiding in Pengcheng, which seems to be the meaning of relying on others.The important ministers and high-level generals of the Chu State dare not offend, let alone Yin Xu.From Xuyi to Pengcheng, they had seen General Yin's strength several times, and Song Yi was in a mess, and he couldn't get any advantage, so he didn't dare to neglect him in the slightest.Smiling like a spring breeze, he said, "General Yin doesn't need to be too polite. Is there something to do with the widow?"

Yin Xu said with a smile: "There are some things I want to discuss with the king. I wonder if the king is free?"

Han Wangcheng rolled his eyes, not understanding Yin Xu's purpose, but his tone seemed to have something important.He didn't dare to be negligent at the moment, and said politely: "Since that's the case, why don't General Yin go with the widow?" King Han had plans at night, but he was eager to know why Yin Xu came, so he invited him to go with the car. There is a long way to go back home.

You can't talk through the window on the street, and the matter is more or less confidential, and it's not good for others to hear, so Yin Xudang even agreed.

The carriage started again, and Han Wangcheng said in the carriage, "What does General Yin want to chat with the widow?"

Yin Xu smiled and said: "This time to rescue Zhao Guo, Your Majesty is planning to return to Korea, right?"

Han Wangcheng said thoughtfully: "Yes, I will return to South Korea in a few days to recruit troops and revive our country."

Yin Xu said: "The land of Han has just suffered from the flames of war, and a thousand wastes are waiting to be restored. The people are eagerly waiting for the return of the king. Revitalize the court, rejuvenate Korea, and you are busy, King Han."

"Yeah, this is a matter of the widow." Han Wangcheng couldn't help slandering secretly during the speech, Yin Xu would not be free to ask about these things, what is the purpose of laying the groundwork for this?

Yin Xu saw it and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, to revitalize South Korea, you must have capable ministers and counselors to assist you?"

Han Wangcheng glanced at Yin Xu suspiciously, and said with a dry smile: "Yes! General Yin means..."

Yin Xu smiled between his eyebrows: "King Han, I am here today to recommend talents for you?"

King Han smiled and said, "Who is it? If General Yin is willing to go to Korea with me, I will honor him as a guest of honor and entrust him with a heavy responsibility."

A joke made Yin Xu laugh. Han and Yan were the most disadvantaged of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period. In the past, King Yan appointed Le Yi and nearly destroyed Qi, which was considered a glorious moment.South Korea has always been poor and weak, only to be beaten, and it will not be South Korea to whichever country it goes to.What's more, Yin Xu is now a general of the Chu State, a Marquis of Shaoxing proclaimed by King Huai of Chu, with a respected status and a bright future.

Yin Xu said with a smile: "King Han is joking, how can Yin Xu be able to do that? King Meng saw it highly. When it comes to talents, how can I compare with the wise and far-sighted people of your country?"

"General Yin said..." Han Wangcheng was thoughtful, and a figure appeared in his mind, but he had to confirm it.

"Zhang Liang and Zhang Zifang!" Yin Xu pretended to be profound, and looked at Han Wangcheng with a smile.

"Zhang Liang?" Han Wangcheng guessed a little bit, and was not surprised by the candidate. What was strange was why Yin Xu came to him to clarify.

Yin Xu said: "That's right, Mr. Zifang is a Korean. His ancestors have been ministers in Korea for many generations, and he himself is a wise and profound counselor. If you have Zhang Liang to assist you, the King of Han, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?"

Han Wangcheng couldn't help it: "It's good, but Zhang Liang is now in Peigong's mansion. Even if I want to, it's not convenient..."

"Hey, no matter how you say, Mr. Zifang is a Korean. It is your duty to be loyal to the King of Han, and he should do it. As for Peigong, it is only temporary. Thinking about the old King of Han, you have not returned to the country, Zifang Mister is eager to devote himself to the cause of anti-Qin, just happened to meet Liu Peigong and cooperate with each other." Yin Xu's words were high-sounding, and they knew each other well.

"Oh?" Han Wencheng looked at Yin Xu doubtfully.

Yin Xu smiled knowingly, and continued: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zifang worked hard and contributed a lot to the matter of your restoration of the country and his ascension to the throne. It can be seen that he has always cherished his homeland and put it into practice. In the communication with him, I have also seen Zifang Mr. expresses the feelings of the motherland. The reason why he did not leave Peigong is that Peigong knew that he had met with great kindness, and there was no suitable reason to leave. Second, didn’t you call Han Wang? Today in the hall, Liu Peigong performed brilliantly It is indispensable for Mr. Zifang to give advice later on. This is the time for employing people, and you, King Han, should have put Mr. Zifang to good use, and with his advice for you, the recovery of Korea is just around the corner."

Han Wangcheng could see the situation in the palace today very clearly. Zhang Liang's reputation and ability are undeniable. If he really had this person to assist him, it would indeed be of great benefit.It's just...Han Wangcheng sighed: "It's just hard to talk about Peigong's side? Is Zhang Liang willing to go back to Korea with the widow?"

Yin Xu comforted him and said: "King Han, don't worry. Zhang Liang is a courtier of South Korea. It is only natural for you to order your subjects, and Peigong will not object. Besides, you are King Han, with a noble status, so there is nothing to be afraid of. As for Mr. Zifang , He already has his homeland in mind, if you greet him in person, the courtesies are thoughtful, and he will succeed immediately. At that time, the king of Han is eager to seek talents, and the corporal will be a good story, isn't it true that Zhang Zifang will serve his homeland? of."

The beautiful vision said that Han Wang was full of enthusiasm, he could only vaguely guess Yin Xu's purpose, but this is not important, it is indeed feasible to invite Zhang Liang back.The carriage just arrived at the intersection, and the directions of the two people's residences were different, so Yin Xu took the opportunity to say goodbye and get off the carriage.Han Wangcheng sat in the carriage thinking for a moment, and ordered: "Go to Pei Gong's mansion!"

Yin Xu got on his horse and looked at Han Wangcheng driving at the intersection in front of him, showing a knowing smile.He said in a low voice: Brother Liu, courtesy is reciprocal, it is not a respect, please accept it with a smile.After finishing speaking, he patted his horse and walked away.

Pei Gong and Zhang Liang hurried back to the mansion, and Fan Kui, who didn't know it, greeted him, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Pei Gong is about to be appointed as the king of Guanzhong!"

It was only after he finished speaking that he noticed that Liu Bang's complexion was not good. Seeing this, Xiao He asked, "Why? What's the matter? Is there anything wrong?"

Liu Bang had to spend a lot of time talking, and after he finished speaking, everyone realized that there was a huge crisis hidden behind the great glory.

Zhang Liang sighed: "Originally, Pei Gong led the army to attack Guanzhong, accumulate wealth, gain reputation, and develop strength. I never thought that King Huai would intervene in it and make use of it. This situation will appear. After planning for a long time, only King Huai was ignored. ..." Speaking of this matter, Mr. Zifang couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Fan Kuitian was not afraid of anything, and his thoughts were not as far-reaching as others. He shouted: "What are you afraid of? As long as Guanzhong is defeated, wouldn't it be great for Pei Gong to be the king of Guanzhong?"

Xiao He shook his head and said: "Where is it so easy? It is not known whether Guanzhong can be successfully captured. Even if it is captured, Song Yi and Xiang Yu will not let it go. It is difficult to deal with it!"

Zhou Bo said worriedly: "Besides, it is unknown how the situation of Julu will develop..."

At this time, the servant came to report: "Pei Gong, the king of Han is visiting!"

The king of Han is visiting?Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Liu Bang and Zhang Liang looked at each other, and a bad premonition came to mind.
