Qin State, Chengdu.

The Qin State conquered this place for not long, only about thirty years.

Twenty-nine years ago, Qin State successively annexed Shu State and Ba State, and established Shu County in Chengdu.

At that time, Qin ministers Zhang Yi and Sima Cuo built Taicheng (Fu Nancheng). The following year, Zhang Yi built Shaocheng (Fu Xi City) west of Taicheng.

After years of development, Chengdu has become a southwestern metropolis with a population of more than 100,000.

Chengdu was built according to the template of Xianyang. When the palace was built, all palaces were directly used for the Xianyang palace drawings. The Qin people, who were very pursuing details, even made all the decorations and utensils as much as possible as in the Xianyang Palace. Therefore, when Qin was sitting in this palace, he even had some illusions that he seemed to have returned to Xianyang.

But that's all.

For an old Qin man, no matter how good Bashu is, Guanzhong is the real lifeblood. What's more, Bashu in this era is completely incomparable to Guanzhong.

In early winter, although the snow is not very big, the cold air in the air is already very biting, and the fire in the hall is very strong, but it is completely impossible to drive away the chill from the heart.

The King of Qin sat there alone, like an ice sculpture.

Outside the hall, several Qin ministers had just walked off the carriage and were climbing up the stairs in the wind and snow all over the sky. The heads were Qin Prime Minister Bang Wei Ran and Xincheng Jun Mi Rong.

Mi Rong was a lucky guy. Unlike the unlucky Queen Mother Xuan Ying Fu and his son, Mi Rong decisively gave up Wu Guan, who was originally bargaining with the Chu people, and took his own personal follower to Guanzhong.

After arriving in Guanzhong, Mi Rong did not dare to take the main road, so he followed the Qinling Mountains in the south and wanted to go around Xianyang. As a result, when he was about to go north when he was about to go north, the news of the Qin King giving up the southern tour of Xianyang came again.

So by accident, Mi Rong entered Ziwu Road first and rushed to Hanzhong before the Qin King and his army, and successfully avoided the fate of becoming a prisoner of Zhao.

But although this life was saved, the rest were thrown away, and there was nothing to be proud of.

Looking at the palace in front of him that looked like Xianyang Palace, Mi Rong felt a little emotional.

Just a few years ago, Bashu was still an exile place for Qin, and there were many rebellions in Bashu. Except for Chengdu, they were all in the countryside. Whoever came to Bashu to become an official was in great trouble and was excluded. I didn’t expect that it has become the only remaining base for Qin.

This fate is sometimes really teasing.

Soon, everyone entered the hall.

The monarch and ministers all met with each other.

The King of Qin glanced at Wei Ran, looked around the ministers, and then slowly said: "The news I just received is that King Zhao has made a lot of noise in the Handan League... but he is here!"

At the order of the King of Qin, someone came forward and distributed several documents to the Qin ministers present.

These Qin ministers looked at the materials and their faces gradually became solemn.

The materials in everyone's hands are the same, and they are written about what Zhao State did in the Handan League.

After everyone finished watching, the King of Qin said, "What do the Ersanzi think about this?"

Wei Ran pondered for a moment and was the first to speak: "King, it seems that Zhao State will soon be attacked on the other three countries."

The King of Qin did not comment, but asked back: "Why did Marquis Rang say so?"

Wei Ran said: "The King of Zhao is ambitious and never does anything without purpose. Since he deliberately suppressed Chu and Wei and showed kindness to Han Dynasty on the alliance, it is an extremely obvious strategy of division. Therefore, I concluded that Zhao should attack Wei or a certain country in Chu next year."

The King of Qin asked again: "So Marquis Rang thinks, is it Wei or Chu?"

Wei Ran said: "It should be Wei State, because Wei State is closer to Handan."

The King of Qin nodded slightly, and after a while, he said, "So, is there any solution for the Qin Dynasty now?"

After the words came to a quiet place in the hall.

The King of Qin wanted to counterattack Guanzhong, which is something everyone knows.

In fact, it was not just the King of Qin, everyone present wanted to counterattack Guanzhong.

Because Bashu and Guanzhong are separated by Qinling Mountains and Hanzhong, there is a huge gap between customs and customs. Even people like Wei Ran and Mirong who were born in the Chu State but had long been used to living in Guanzhong could not live there.

After a while, Mi Rong said, "King, isn't Zhao going to do that investigation team? I think this may be an opportunity."

The King of Qin's face moved slightly and said, "What kind of opportunity?"

Mi Rong said: "If the Qin Dynasty could find ways to create some unfavorable points for Zhao during the investigation and frame the matter on Zhao, it might make Zhao angry. At that time, the Qin Dynasty could contact the Central Plains countries and the four countries would join forces to fight against Zhao."

The corners of King Qin's mouth twitched unnaturally and said, "This is also a solution. Marquis Rang, what do you think?"

Wei Ran said: "The method of Xinchengjun is completely a try. Even if it fails, it will not cause much loss to the Qin Dynasty. In addition, I think I should not completely focus my attention in Daliang City, but also send another envoy to Xinzheng and Chen Ying to persuade King Han and King Chu. Only in this way can the four countries be combined into an alliance in the shortest time and face Zhao together."

The King of Qin was silent for a moment and nodded, "Yes. Let the envoys tell King Han and King Chu that I would not compete with them for any Hedong Nanyang. I just need to take it back to Guanzhong after defeating Zhao!"

When the plan was decided, when the Qin ministers walked out of the palace, the faces of several Qin ministers were less depressed and more fighting spirit.

Wei Ran looked around with his head raised and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there may be some struggles between you and me in the past, but now... everything is for the Qin Dynasty!"

An old Qin minister nodded, and his tone was very solemn: "Everything is for the Qin Dynasty!"

In the palace, the King of Qin looked at the Hou in front of him and also said a sentence with similar meanings.

"Go to Daliang. This time, Daqin... I'll ask you."

The capital of Chu State, Chen Ying.

Zhaofu.

"What, is he crazy? Since he dares to agree to such a condition?" Zhao Qi's extremely surprised voice sounded in the lobby, looking extremely loud.

It is not only Zhao Qi, but also Zhao Ju, the current head of the family, and more than a dozen core figures of the Zhao clan, were all listed, and their faces were extremely ugly.

Because they just received the news that the King of Chu had already agreed to the extremely incredible request of King Zhao at the Handan League, and was about to kill the head of the Zhao clan, Zhaoju, the Chu State's Shangzhu State!

This is definitely a very unacceptable news for the Zhao clan.

Fortunately, the Zhao clan members in the Chu delegation received the news in advance and rushed back to notify him in time. Otherwise, if the Chu state returns to Chen Ying, the Zhao clan will inevitably be extremely busy by the sudden news.

Zhao Ju, the person involved in the matter, also looked extremely ugly and solemn, but he was also the helmsman of Zhao's family for many years. He glared at Zhao Qi and said in a deep voice: "Be more steady, so many uncles are here!"

Zhao Qi did not obey his father's words, but instead had a high tone: "Father, our Zhao clan is also a branch of the public clan, and has helped them for so many years. The defeat in the battle of Yanying cannot be blamed on us. Even Qin attacked Zhao was his own idea. How could he blame our Zhao clan on our heads and use our Zhao clan as this scapegoat!"

"Enough!" Zhao Ju slapped the table in front of her and shouted: "Don't you know what you said about Father, don't you know the uncles here? Shut up and sit down, let Father think about how to deal with it!"

Facing Zhao Ju's almost stolen eyes, Zhao Qi sat down reluctantly.

Zhao Ju let out a long sigh, looked around the Zhao family members present, and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about it, what should I do now?"

No one answered for a moment.

As the three major families, Zhao's family has been able to beat the Qu family of Jing for many years. Of course, they have their own abilities and many talents in the clan.

But the problem is that now we have to directly oppose the King of Chu, who is the king!

If it is just a King of Chu, it would be nothing. After all, after all, after the Zhao family has been going through hundreds of years, they have violated the king and fought against the king.

The real key is that the request agreed by King Chu was made by King Zhao!

Zhao He, King Zhao He, is now recognized as the most terrifying monarch among the entire Chinese princes.

Under the leadership of this young king, Zhao State rose rapidly at a speed that shocked everyone, swallowed all the Yan and captured Guanzhong. One by one, it was a major event that convinced the world.

It’s such a terrifying king. Now he wants the life of the head of the Zhao family!

Zhao can block King Chu, but can it block King Zhao?

This is the most critical reason why the many Zhao family core layers present cannot speak.

In addition, Zhao Ju, the head of the family, has been a member of the family for many years. Among the people here, there are one or two people who have the ability to challenge Zhao Ju. These people may not want to see Zhao Ju die.

Looking at the dead hall, Zhao Qi felt more and more upset.

Zhao Ju is his own father! Now, the King of Chu and King Zhao want their own father’s population, but these uncles who rely on their own father to act as a mighty person are pretending to be deaf and dumb here!

Zhao Qi said coldly: "Does all uncles think that after my father's death, will the King, Jing family and that traitor Qu Yuan let go of the others of the Zhao family? By that time, the Zhao family will probably become the first family to perish among the three major families."

As the so-called authorities were confused, Zhao Qi said this, and the faces of many of the people present began to change.

Finally someone spoke.

An old man from Zhao family with gray hair said, "For the sake of the present, we can only find a way to delay the king's side for a while, and then send someone to Handan to plead with the King of Zhao. If the King of Zhao does not let go, everything will be empty talk."

Zhao Ju nodded slightly and said, "That's true. What's the way for me, Zhao, in Handan?"

Zhao Ju did not ask why he delayed time from the King of Chu, because this matter was not too difficult for the Zhao family, who had a power throughout the Chu court.

Another old man said: "Su Dai, a great traveler from Zhao State, also served as an envoy to Da Chu. I was responsible for receiving him at that time and gave him several maids. I heard that one of them gave birth to a son for Su Dai, and now he is one of Su Dai's concubines. I can go to Handan and think of a solution from Su Dai."

Zhaoju asked, "Is there anyone else who has a way?"

Another middle-aged man said, "I am responsible for managing our Zhao family's industry, which has some relationship with the Zhao Shaofu. The Shaofu is the private property of King Zhao. If the Shaofu Order is willing to help, he might be able to meet King Zhao."

Zhao Ju asked a few more questions, and saw that no one spoke again, so he said to the two of them just now: "Then, please ask the two of you. This action is crucial. You and the two of you immediately go to the treasury in the clan and use all the money and jewelry at will. Be sure to rush to Handan as quickly as possible and find a way to meet King Zhao!"

After saying that, Zhao Ju looked at the others and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, this crisis is not the crisis of me, Zhao Ju, but also the crisis of the entire Zhao clan. If I die, then neither Jing nor Qu or even the king will let Zhao clan continue to survive. I know that some people may be quite dissatisfied with me, Zhao Ju, but now is the moment of life and death of the Zhao clan. Please work together with me to overcome this difficulty!"

After Zhao Ju finished speaking, the other Zhao family core members in the hall also responded with serious expressions.

Zhao Qi, who was sitting aside, watched this scene slowly, and he slowly felt relieved.

Zhao's family has been in the Chu State for hundreds of years. In many cases, the power of the open and secret is not completely controlled by Zhao Ju, the head of the family. Once it is activated with all its strength, the power is absolutely amazing.

Although Zhao Qi has been identified as the next head of the Zhao clan, Zhao Qi is still very clear about how much he has.

If Zhao Ju was killed now, Zhao Qi would not be able to fully inherit the power of the entire Zhao clan. By that time, the Zhao clan would have to be slaughtered.

In a few years, when the rights of the Zhao clan are basically handed over to Zhaoqi, it will be the time for Zhaoqi to truly achieve great success!

Just as Zhao Qi's face gradually relaxed, the door of the hall was suddenly pushed open with a bang. A bitter cold wind blew into the face with snowflakes, directly pouring Zhao Qi's face, who was very close to the door. The cold wind poured into Zhao Qi's air, causing him to cough violently after being caught off guard.

Zhao Qi was furious and looked up and saw his old housekeeper. He was about to speak out and scold him, but at this moment, the old housekeeper with no face was spoken first.

"The head of the family, no, Qu Yuan suddenly led his troops to surround our Zhao Mansion and asked you to go out and meet him!"

After this sentence, all the people in the Zhao family present changed their faces.

Qu Yuan, he came so soon!
Chapter completed!
