Chapter Eleven Tian Dan

Tian Dan Mansion.

Generally speaking, when a guest comes, the host is usually sitting on the upper and lower seats.

But today the identity of this guest is so special that even the former prime minister of Zhao State like Tian Dan had to respectfully accompany him to the last place.

This unexpected uninvited guest is of course Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan was sitting in the upper head position at this moment, looking at Tian Dan who was lower head with great interest.

This is a man wearing a tall crown and belt, purple clothes, a little thin face, a calm appearance, and a little gray temple.

This is also a famous man in history.

If we push the time forward a few years and want to select the four famous generals of the time, then Bai Qi of Qin, Zhao She of Zhao of Zhao, Le Yi of Yan and Tian Shan of Qi of Qi would definitely deserve it and would not think of others.

Sima Qian commented on Tian Dan in "Records of the Grand Historian: Biography of Tian Dan" as follows: "The army is in harmony and wins with strangeness. Those who are good at it are surprisingly infinite. The strange and righteousness will be born together, like a ring without reason. The husband starts like a virgin, and it is suitable for someone to open an account; the latter is like a rabbit, and it is not suitable for the distance: the land is evil!"

Sima Qian's words mean that Tian Dan can not only fight with the enemy upright, but also win surprises when needed. His use of troops is ever-changing, both right and strange. It can be said that he is as quiet as a virgin and moving as a rabbit, which is simply unpredictable to the opponent.

There is no doubt that this is a very high evaluation.

Moreover, Tian Dan was quite loyal to the emperor and patriotic. After using counter-espionage to force Le Yi away and the Fire Bull Formation to defeat the cavalry, Tian Dan led the Qi army to sweep the entire Qi land like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, completely regaining all the land occupied by Yan.

By this time, Tian Shan's reputation in Qi had reached its peak, and he also held the military power of the only army of Qi. He was also the bloodline of the Tian royal family of Qi. As long as Tian Shan was willing, he could become the king of Qi. Moreover, most of the people of Qi would definitely agree with each other.

But Tian Dan did not do this. Instead, he went to Jucheng to welcome Tian Fazhang, the son of King Min of Qi, and made this Tian Fazhang the new King of Qi, that is, King Xiang of Qi.

As a result, Tian Dan's reputation reached its peak, so that the people of the mainland and Qi "only knew that there was Anping Lord (Tian Dan), but not the King of Qi."

As the saying goes, the merit is overwhelming, but Tian Dan’s merit is already so high that it can no longer be higher, and it can even be said to be the level of crushing his own king.

Therefore, Tian Fazhang, King Xiang of Qi, was extremely afraid of Tian Dan. Although Tian Dan, the honor of a great minister, reached its peak, he was never reused.

It is precisely because of this that when King Huiwen of Zhao asked to exchange 57 cities in three major cities in Gaotang, Linglu and plains for the exchange of stalks, King Xiang of Qi Tian Fazhang agreed without hesitation, completely ignoring how the many oppositions in Qi were surging.

After Tian Dan came to Zhao State to become the prime minister, King Huiwen of Zhao and King Xiang of Qi soon died one after another. At that time, Zhao Dan was still young at the beginning of ascension to the throne, so he was regent by Zhao Dan's biological mother, Queen Zhao Wei of Zhao Huiwen of Zhao.

Empress Zhao Wei was the younger sister of Tian Fazhang, King Xiang of Qi, so she still trusted Tian Dan, the family of Qi. During this period, Tian Dan lived a comfortable life and had power. She also led troops to conquer Yan State and captured several cities in Yan State.

However, after Zhao Dan took power and Zhao Wei's death, Tian Dan's situation quickly deteriorated.

After taking power, Zhao Dan did not trust Tian Dan, a Qi person, so Tian Dan, was quickly undermined. Although he was still a prime minister in name, his power was actually distributed to Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng and Shangqing Lin Xiangru.

After that, Tian Dan basically lived in seclusion at home, and only exposed some occasions that had to attend. Until a few days ago, Zhao Dan, who had not been traveling through time, ordered the removal of Tian Dan's position and replaced him with the Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng.

Judging from the historical books, Tian Dan was silent afterwards. I think he should have died of old age in silence.

When Zhao Dan thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful about this historical celebrity.

Tian Dan, a great talent.

It’s a pity that King Qi dared not use it, King Zhao couldn’t use it.

The King of Qi dared not use it as mentioned before, so why did you say that King of Zhao couldn't use it? Because Tian Dan in front of Zhao Dan was still wearing a standard Qi dress...

This has been in Zhao State for so many years, but she is still persistent in wearing Qi State clothes, which shows that Tian Dan still thinks he is a Qi State.

Such a loyal and patriotic man is only loyal to his mother country, Qi. People like Zhao Wei can also use him, but neither Zhao Dan nor Zhao Dan dares to use Tian Dan.

How can I use this when I am in Cao's camp and my heart is in Han? I really can't use it.

Tian Dan really loves Qi State so much! No king can use him except the King of Qi.

Tian Dan looked at Zhao Dan and couldn't help but feel a little strange. You, the king, just withdrew from my position as the prime minister a few days ago, and now you suddenly ran to my mansion quietly. You sat here and stared at me without saying anything. The expression on your face was strange. What are you doing?

Recalling the rumors that "King Zhao is so handsome" that came out of the uterus a while ago, Tian Dan's body suddenly trembled. This probably won't be the case, I'm so old...

So Tian Dan felt that he could not remain so silent anymore, so he bowed to Zhao Danyi and said, "I don't know that the king suddenly came to visit, but Is there anything wrong to tell Yu Chen?"

Zhao Dan came to his senses. He was just thinking about recalling Tian Dan’s glorious history and forgot about the living person in front of him.

Although the knocking on Tian Dan's door was Zhao Dan's temporary intention, Zhao Dan had actually had some ideas in his mind before he decided to knock on the door. After such a short period of thinking, Zhao Dan basically had a similar plan.

So Zhao Dan coughed and said, "Du Pingjun hasn't returned to Qi for many years?"

Tian Dan was stunned when he heard this, thinking to himself that you are not nonsense. I have been a prime minister in Zhao for many years and have been extremely suspicious of you Zhao people. Will I give people an excuse to attack me when I return to Qi?

But what Tian Dan said was: "Return to the king, I have not returned for many years."

Zhao Dan smiled slightly and said, "Since that's the case, I think Du Pingjun Ding didn't know that the day of the demise of Qi was about to be in front of me?"

"What?" Tian Dan was shocked when he heard this: "Why did the king say this?"

Looking at Tian Dan's appearance, Zhao Dan was sure again that he was indeed loyal to Qi State. Otherwise, with Tian Dan's cultivation, he shouldn't have lost his composure.

Such a good talent is in front of you but can't use it. I'm so angry.

Zhao Dan sighed in his heart, it seemed that he could only act according to the previous plan.

So Zhao Dan said seriously: "Mr. Duping should know that at this moment, Zhao State is confronting the Qin State on the front line."

Tian Dan nodded. This is the battle that is as concerned as today. No matter how much Tian Dan says it, it is Zhao Guoping, how can he not know it?

So Zhao Dan continued: "From my opinion, the day when Changping decides the victory or defeat is the time when King Jian of Qi died and the country was destroyed."

Tian Dan pondered for a while and said, "The king said this, I am sorry for me. The dispute between Qin and Zhao seems to have nothing to do with Qi."

"Is that true?" Zhao Dan couldn't help laughing, and then said for a moment: "In the view of Dupingjun, can there be a country besides our Zhao State today? "

Tian Dan shook his head and said, "There is no one who can be the Qin army except Zhao army."

The two strong men in Qin and Zhao fought each other, which is already a recognized fact today.

Zhao Dan said: "Now King Ji of Qin sent a million troops and came in a fierce battle. He wanted to achieve his full success and destroy our Zhao State's elite in Changping. If our Zhao State was defeated, the six eastern countries could no longer stop the powerful Qin State. In this way, the six countries will surely be destroyed one after another. How could Qi State be able to protect itself from evil?"

Tian Dan was silent again, and after a moment, he said: "Although Qin is strong, Zhao is not weak. The head coach of the Qin army, Wang Yu, is just Shu Zier, how can he compare with General Lian Po? It is too early to conclude that Qin will win at this moment."

Zhao Dan smiled and said, "If Wang He led the troops, I will naturally be worried. But if Wang He is just a cover, what about the real commander of the Qin army, which is actually Wu'an Jun Bai Qi?"
