After hearing this, His Majesty the Emperor finally lost half of his anger. The young man in front of him was wearing bright clothes and angry horses. He was young and frivolous, and he could be regarded as a general of the country.
"This emperor's honor, the wrath of thunder is not just talk. Our Zhao country has never been at the mercy of others. If King Wei has such intention, he should express it himself. The people of Zhao country can see it, but if he harbors evil intentions,
, I will never let anyone go."
Of course Wei Wu knew that he was beating himself up, but it didn't matter. After all, he didn't dare to really touch himself.
Wei Wu nodded humbly.
"I heard that the prince of Zhao is brave and good at fighting and good at strategy. I really want to meet this prince, but I don't know where he is."
Fukang saw that this man was so unreasonable to His Highness the Crown Prince, so he interrupted, "Are you allowed to call His Highness the Crown Prince's name? Why don't you kneel down to greet him?"
Wei Wu raised his head and laughed, then turned pale.
"It's a joke. I, Wei Wu, was born in a family of military generals. I kneel to heaven, kneel to my parents, and kneel to the king of Wei. How can I say that I should kneel to your prince? How dare you, a eunuch, talk to me? Who gave you the right?"
Zhao Jin stood up and signaled Fukang to step back behind him.
"Why is General Wei so angry? Maybe it's because Zhao's singing and dancing are not as good as those of Wei's dancing prostitutes."
Wei Wu squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Jin carefully.
And Zhao Jin was also looking up and down carefully at the young man in front of him, both of them testing each other.
Zhao Jin has broad eyebrows, firm eyes, dark skin, and the perseverance on his face is no less than that of a military general. At this moment, his eyes are like an eagle listening closely to his prey.
"Your Highness, I have always heard that you are both talented in civil and military skills. I wonder if you can give me a test and let me learn from you."
Zhao Jin smiled slightly, but that smile was like a gleaming weapon, always ready to pierce the enemy's throat.
"If General Wei has this intention, I will naturally be happy to accompany you. However, our country, Zhao, has always attached great importance to education. It is absolutely forbidden to wield swords and guns in the court hall. We can find a time to compete with you later."
As if he had just remembered something, Wei Wu suddenly realized. "By the way, King Wei sent me here to ask you something else?"
The emperor motioned for him to speak.
Wei Wu presented a list of names, "Zhao and Wei have always kept a close eye on each other, but why have Zhao soldiers brutally killed Wei people so frequently in the past month?"
The emperor had never heard of this happening, and all the ministers in the court were stunned.
Zhao Jin held the list in his hand and looked at it. He didn't know about this either.
I just don’t know if this incident was really done by the soldiers of Zhao State or if it was deliberately framed by Wei State.
"General Wei should be careful in his words and deeds. Our Zhao country has always managed the army well. Even if the soldiers starve to death, they will never harm the people, no matter which country they are from."
Wei Wu's eyes widened angrily and he said, "Oh, if that's the case, doesn't Zhao Guo have the guts to admit it?"
Wang Li hit back at him, "Our country of Zhao has abundant granaries and flocks of cattle and sheep. We will never starve the soldiers. These remarks are all slander. We will not be taken advantage of."
"You are all in your dormitory in Beijing. You are looking at the magnificent palace and the scene of prosperity. But which of you has been to the border areas? The soldiers in the border areas can't even eat, so how can there be ample granaries?"
The emperor nodded and said, "I know about this matter. I will send people to investigate clearly. If the matter is true, I will definitely restore the innocence of the people of Zhao State."
After the banquet was over, Zhao Jin came out of the door, and Wei Wu followed him.
Zhao Jin turned around and stared at him and said, "I didn't know you had the habit of following people."
Wei Wu knew this was a joke and was not angry, so he continued what he said.
"The people I am asked to follow are never ordinary people. I want to talk to His Highness the Crown Prince about the current situation. I wonder if His Highness the Crown Prince can take some time. Or there is a beautiful lady around who makes it difficult for me to go."
Zhao Jin was amused by what he said, "Of course there is none, please come with me."
Zhao Xingzhi came out soon after. He looked at the two people chatting happily in front of him and was very confused. Zhao Jin was now famous at home and abroad. They should have been enemies.
And what he fears most is the two of them joining forces to deal with him.
Although Wei's strength is not as strong as Zhao's, it should never be underestimated.
If we can get the support of Wei State, we will get twice the result with half the effort.
Concubine Jing held the emperor's shoulders and fed fresh fruits into his mouth from time to time.
"Your Majesty, I think that these princes have grown up and it's time to start a family, especially Zhao Jin. Since he became the prince, he has been busy with state affairs all day long, and he has been doing things for the royal family.
And who should do it?"
The emperor squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then patted the concubine Jing's hand and said with a smile, "You are the one who thinks about them the most. Also, it is important to be busy with national affairs, but it is also important to contribute to the royal family. Both are important.
Don’t make a mistake.”
"Then, Your Majesty, which family's young lady do you think is most suitable for her to be betrothed to?"
"In fact, Jin'er already has a wife, but his wife and mother are not here, and there is no one to take care of him. What do you think, my beloved concubine?"
Concubine Jing smiled even more heartily, that was exactly what she thought.
"My concubine's mother's family has a girl who is gentle, virtuous, calm and generous. He and Jin'er are the perfect match."
The emperor understood immediately.
"You are talking about Li Ning'er. She is Lord Li's only daughter, and her status is very noble. However, she cannot be the crown prince when she marries into the East Palace. Letting him be a concubine would be an injustice to her."
The purpose of honoring the imperial concubine has been achieved, so she naturally doesn't care about this. All he cares about is the throne.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Although Ning'er has been rich and noble since he was a child, he has always been attracted to Jin'er. Unfortunately, Jin'er has a wife, so he doesn't want to disturb him. But, what does our princess think?"
The emperor snorted coldly. He had never thought that Zhao Jin could marry that woman. His mother's family were all common people. How could he be worthy of a child of the Wang family?
"I have already allowed him to marry my son. What else does she want? Could it be that she is still a jealous person. If this is the case, I just took this opportunity to destroy her. Now I have kept her because I have not found her.
Her fault is that she has to silence the world before letting her become the crown princess."
Concubine Jing suppressed her smile and looked at the memorials in the emperor's hands with sinister and vicious eyes. Her son was far away in Dai Kingdom precisely because of Zhao Jin.
Without him, Cheng'er would have already moved into the East Palace and became the crown prince, so how could mother and son be separated.
