Zhao Kuo pushed open the door of the courtyard, raised his head, and saw the art that was scolding Zhao Kang.

Yi pointed at Zhao Kang's nose and was scolding him loudly. Zhao Kang lowered his head and listened obediently to his mother's scolding. When they heard the door opening, they looked at the door at the same time. Seeing Zhao Kuo looking at them with a smile, Yi suddenly laughed and no longer had the anger he had just now. Zhao Kang widened his eyes, his face full of fear and despair. Why did he come back today?

"Father!!"

Shan shouted and rushed towards Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo laughed and hugged his daughter. The older Shan grew, the more she looked like her mother. Her eyebrows were almost exactly the same as her mother, so cute. Zhao Kuo held her without any difficulty. He walked to Yi with a smile. Yi had a lot to say in his heart, but he just hid it in his heart and did not express it in front of the children.

"You are back..." Yi said, then said, "I'll cook for you now..." She hurriedly walked away. Zhao Kang smiled foolishly and hurriedly said hello to his father. Then she quietly walked towards the direction of the gate. Shan pointed at his brother and shouted, "Father, brother, he wants to run away!!" The smile on Zhao Kang's face suddenly frozen. Zhao Kuo slowly turned his head and looked at Zhao Kang, his eyes full of fierceness.

"What did you do? Making your mother so angry?"

"I...I did nothing."

"I know!" Shan smiled and narrowed her eyes, and her eyes were bent into crescent moons. Zhao Kang looked pale and hurriedly shook his head at her. Shan lowered his head. After hesitating for a long time, he decided not to betray his brother. Zhao Kuo smiled and took Shan into the inner room to see Zhao's mother. Zhao's mother was sitting in the room, looking at the front with a dull look in her eyes, holding needles and threads in her hand, and was sewing. Zhao Kuo looked at her white-haired mother, slowly put down her daughter and walked in front of her.

Zhao's mother's eyes became increasingly bad. She could hardly see what was going on. Before Zhao Kuo could speak, Zhao's mother suddenly asked, "Kuo? Is Kuo back?" She put down the needle and thread in her hand and reached out to grop. Zhao Kuo hurried forward and sat beside her. Zhao's mother then touched her son. Zhao's mother cried and said, "You are back, you are back, I always have nightmares, I dreamed that you are covered in blood..."

Zhao Kuo felt sad, wiped away the tears from his mother's face, and then said with a smile: "Mother, I'm back, I'm fine!"

"Father, you have to be louder, she can't hear it." Shan reminded carefully.

Zhao Kuo then amplified his voice and said aside again. Zhao's mother groped in Zhao Kuo's face and confirmed that nothing happened to him. Then she said, "I have been praying to the gods and hope they bless you..." Zhao's mother said, and suddenly, she stretched out her hand and groped behind her. After a while, she took out a cloth. After she opened the cloth, there were a few slightly dry peaches inside.

"When the peaches were ripe this year, you didn't come back. This is what I left for you... I hid it in the cellar before... it didn't break, right?"

"Not bad...Not bad, mother." Zhao Kuo's eyes flashed with tears. He hugged Zhao's mother tightly and snuggled his head on her shoulders. Tears couldn't help but flow. Yi walked in at some point and took Shan out. When Zhao Kuo pulled his mother out, Yi had already prepared the meal. Kang and Shan were sitting obediently in their seats, and Zhao Kuo asked Zhao's mother to sit in the upper position.

I sat beside her, and the family had a happy meal.

Unfortunately, Zhao Zheng could no longer come to have dinner at any time. He had a lot of things to do. This time the Korean people's affairs were enough to make him busy for seven or eight days. During the period when Zhao Kuo was away, the King of Qin had already gained a lot of power from Lu Buwei and arranged to promote some of his confidants. He had to do all these things that he was responsible for, otherwise, the ministers in the court would not trust him anymore.

Zhao Kuo suddenly asked, "Where is Cheng Qi? Why is he not here?"

Yi smiled and said, "He is also busy these days... Zheng wants to give him some official positions, but he doesn't seem to be doing very well." Kang glanced at his father, and then said helplessly: "Father, you have to discipline him well. He is now mingling with that hypocritical villain all day long and doesn't come to me anymore... He doesn't listen to me no matter how I say it, I almost have to fight with him..."

"It's you who should be disciplined!" Yi said, then he looked at Zhao Kuo. Yi said angrily: "Do you know what good things your son has done?"

Zhao Kuo then remembered that when he entered the house, Yi was scolding Kang. He didn't know what Kang had done. Zhao Kuo frowned and looked at Kang. Kang lowered his head helplessly, all his fault was that he shouldn't have said anything about discipline. Yi said angrily: "I went to the market to buy something the day before yesterday. When I saw him walking with a woman, he was talking and laughing, and he was not afraid of embarrassing!"

Zhao Kuo immediately frowned and said angrily: "Do you dare to harass a civilian girl?!"

"What kind of folk girl? That's General Wang's granddaughter...and she came to harass me..." Kang said aggrievedly, and Zhao Kuo immediately understood, Oh, it turned out to be a premature love. I thought it was such a big deal. Zhao Kuo smiled and then asked, "Then is she good-looking?" Kang raised his head, nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice, and said, "Of course it looks good, but if it's not good, can I take her to play with it?"

"Kuo!!" Yi suddenly called Zhao Kuo's name. Zhao Kuo hurriedly cleared his throat and said angrily: "You are still young, how can you do such a thing? You are taking her to the city to play?" Zhao Kuo pretended to scold him, and Kang also heard his father's meaning, lowered his head and accepted it with a smile. Zhao Kuo felt that this man was really a strange creature. They knew that their son was in love, so they were not angry, but they felt very happy.

But if they knew their daughter was in love, well, things would be very bad.

After Kang knew that his father was not angry, he continued to talk about Cheng Qi. Zhao Kang seemed to be a little worried. He felt that Cheng Qi was deceived and began to alienate him for no reason... Zhao Kuo interrupted him first, and then asked: "Who is the villain you are talking about?" Zhao Kang said disdainfully: "It is Fan Yuqi who was jumping up and down before, and he didn't know what method he used. Cheng Qi actually regarded him as a close friend!"

Zhao Kuo pondered for a moment, and then nodded. He still had to ask about this matter himself. While continuing to eat, Zhao Kang suddenly said, "There is also the eldest brother... After the day you went to the battle, the eldest brother was sick in bed and never went out again. I visited him a few times. He looked very bad... He also wanted to quit his position, but Lu Buwei refused. You should go and see him."

Zhao Kuo then remembered that it seemed that he had never seen Han Fei after returning to Xianyang. Han Fei was sick? Zhao Kuo couldn't help but sigh, Han Fei was suffering from heart disease, the destruction of South Korea... Zhao Kuo also remembered this matter in his heart. When Yi was busy, Zhao Kang came over and said with a smile: "Father, give me some money, I want to go out for fun..."

Zhao Kuo found some money from his body and handed it over to him, then said, "Don't let your mother know... Go out and be careful, it's cold and cold... Forget it, forget it, go!" Zhao Kuo waved his hand and drove Kang away. Then, Zhao Kuo went to visit Ge who lived in the next courtyard. Ge is now paralyzed on the bed and cannot get up. There is someone around him to serve him at any time. When Zhao Kuo came to visit Ge, Ge was not very happy.

He turned his head and refused to look at Zhao Kuo in front of him.

Zhao Kuo walked down with a smile, then asked, "Mr. Ge, why are you?"

"Ma Fujun said at the beginning that if you were to be the general, Zhao State would definitely perish... I don't understand what he meant. Now I understand. It turns out that Qin State would perish because you were to be the general, Zhao State would perish." As Gong Ge said, he looked at Zhao Kuo, and he asked, "You helped Qin State fight back the land that Ma Fujun had built for Zhao State... If I suddenly left one day, I have a lot to say to Ma Fujun..."

Zhao Kuo was silent for a long time and did not reply.

Ge may have realized that his words were a bit too much, and he said again: "You are a Zhao man, Ma Fujun, your ancestors are the king of Zhao, and your father and grandfather are bleeding and sacrificing for Zhao. King Zhao is indeed sorry for you. You can help Qin govern the territory after he was born in Qin, but why do you have to take your soldiers to attack Zhao? Why do you have to kill... Alas... Ma Fujun, you are a Zhao man."

Zhao Kuo looked at Ge in front of him seriously and said, "I know I am a Zhao person. I will not deny this, nor do I want to change this. What I want to change is this world... I hope you can understand me. You don't know the situation outside, a locust plague, starving more than 100,000 people to death... I must change all this."

"You want to be the king of the world, why can't it be Zhao?"

"Zhao State? Even if the King of Zhao supports me like the King of Qin and the Prime Minister assists me with all his strength, how can Zhao State's strength be the world? Qin State can defeat the coalition forces of various countries. This is not because of me, but because of Qin itself. How long does it take to make Zhao State so powerful? How many people need to die?" Zhao Kuo also spoke out his thoughts directly without any concealment.

Ge looked at him and couldn't speak for a long time. He just sighed and turned his head again.

However, Zhao Kuo told him about what he saw and heard in Korea, and talked about the changes of several children, and talked about family matters. Ge finally stopped being as angry as before. He calmed down and listened carefully to Zhao Kuo talking about the outside world, and Zhao Kuo complained about his master. The two chatted for a long time before Zhao Kuo left here. Perhaps because Ge had followed Zhao She to fight against Qin, he could not accept Zhao Kuo's actions.

But Zhao Kuo knew that he had to do these things.

After leaving the mansion, Zhao Kuo went to Han Fei's side again. There were indeed a lot of people he wanted to visit. The place where Han Fei lived was not far from Zhao Kuo's courtyard. Zhao Kuo did not take a carriage and walked to Han Fei's mansion. When he arrived at the mansion, someone came out to greet Zhao Kuo immediately. These were Han Fei's disciples and were also Zhao Kuo's disciples, so they respected Zhao Kuo very much.

After being led into the inner room by them, Zhao Kuo finally saw Han Fei sitting on the bed. Han Fei was dressed very thickly, his face was extremely pale, and he kept trembling. It was indeed very cold outside, but the inner room was not so cold that it made people tremble. Han Fei struggled to get up to pay homage to the teacher, but Zhao Kuo shook his head and asked him to sit down. He sat in front of Han Fei, for a moment, but didn't know what to say.

Han Fei loves his country very much.

After leaving South Korea for so many years, Han Fei has never forgotten his country, and now, Han Fei's country has perished... Looking at Han Fei's constant trembling, Zhao Kuo shook his head and then said: "Zheng... The king has exempted the taxes and labor service of those counties this year, and sent people to help the people and help the orphans and widows... I went to various parts of Korea to check it out, and the officials were ready for spring plowing and got a lot of plowing ox."

"After suffering so much, they can finally live a good life..."

Han Fei raised his head and looked at the teacher. Han Fei didn't understand these principles. However, the demise of the country was an unacceptable blow to anyone. Zhao Kuo said seriously: "Are you feeling sad for the King of Han?" Han Fei shook his head and said: "All this is what he deserves."

"Then are you sad because you see the Korean people fleeing from suffering?"

"I...I just...I..." Han Fei's eyes were red, but he was stuttering and unable to speak.

"Your country has not been destroyed.. Your people, the people you love, have lived a better life... They will not be frozen to death, nor will they starve to death again..." Zhao Kuo sighed, saying: "You have to find a way to make them live a better life and make a better law... instead of wasting time here... On that land, the Korean culture will last for thousands of years, and in many years, the people living there will be the same hard work... Simple, honest..."

Han Fei covered his face. He was silent for a long time before he raised his head and asked, "If it were the State of Zhao that perished, would you be sad?"

"Of course I'll be sad...but this is the only way to save the world. You've prepared for it very early, right?"

Han Fei's red eyes stared straight ahead, and after a long time of silence, he said, "Yes..."
