In Handan, Zhao State, at the southern point of the general platform, a red bird slowly landed.
Zhao Bao, Lian Po and other famous ministers and generals of Zhao State came to the stage to greet him with complicated emotions.
"Have you figured out how to stand?" Zhao Bao looked at Lian Po and asked in a low voice.
The entire Zhao court is now in chaos. There are Li Mu who supports Queen Zhao Qian, the clan who wants to establish a new King of Zhao, and the influx of ministers from the Zhou family, as well as the Mo family, Ji Luo, neutral Lian Po, and others. The exiled ministers and famous generals from other countries, Le Cheng, Pang Nuan, and even Daijun, who has been fighting for independence.
Except for the remaining ministers of the Zhou Dynasty who should not exist, the Zhao Kingdom was already in chaos, which was also the reason why there were so many generals that Zhao Xiaocheng and Wang Dan could not use during his reign.
The remaining ministers of the Zhou Dynasty, headed by Ji Luo, stood on the far left. Perhaps they didn't care who the Emperor Zhou was, they just wanted their former status.
The clan members gathered in the middle, headed by Zhao Bao, the clan uncle.
On the right is Lian Po of Zhao State and a group of generals.
Behind them are officials from Daijun and Le Cheng, Pang Nuan and others who were exiled from other countries.
Zhao Qian also stood on the general stage, quietly waiting for Suzaku to fall, with a complicated expression.
It has been nearly a year since she became the King of Zhao, but the affairs in the court are in a mess. Although Li Mu has been helping her deal with it, Li Mu himself was a general and didn't know how to deal with the affairs in the court.
Zhao Qian could only stumble and control Zhao Guo's decaying chariot to prevent it from overturning.
The clan has also been thinking about letting her marry a clan member and return the royal power to the clan, but the relics of the Zhou clan have been blocking it and are waiting for Jin Yao's return.
Therefore, Zhao Qian actually wanted to lie down and no longer want to deal with these messy court affairs. She even thought that it might be better if Jin Yao really succeeded her as the king of Zhao.
But as the King of Zhao, she couldn't give up her clan identity and couldn't hand over the Zhao Kingdom to Jin Yao. Otherwise, how could she have the face to meet her ancestors?
Therefore, Zhao Qian is also very conflicted in her heart.
Lian Po looked at Zhuque and did not answer Zhao Bao's question, because he didn't know what to do. The Zhao country was already in chaos, and even he didn't know how to change it.
"It's really chaotic!" On the Suzaku, Bingbai Shensha looked at the circles below and whispered to Jin Yao.
"We've expected it a long time ago, haven't we?" Jin Yao said calmly, if he can't even do this, then what qualifications does he have to compete with Ying Zheng for the world?
Ying Zheng's danger came from the Chu clan, from Lu Buwei, from Chang'an Jun Chengyu, and his danger came from the Zhao clan.
"Our main contradiction and problem now is the clan issue of Zhao State." Jin Yao analyzed the situation of Zhao State.
If they want to take charge of the State of Zhao, they must first replace Zhao Qian as the king of the State of Zhao, and the clan of the State of Zhao is the first problem they face.
The clan is not only the descendants of Zhao Xiaocheng and Wang Dan and the brothers and heirs of the previous Zhao kings, but also the descendants of the Zhao family. Those people are filled in various places and official offices of the Zhao State, and control the lifeblood of the entire Zhao State.
Therefore, how to arrange these people is the most critical issue.
The Suzaku slowly landed. Jin Yao and Bingbai Shensha stepped off the Suzaku and looked at Zhao Qian, who was now the King of Zhao.
Everyone's eyes are also focused on the two of them. Everyone knows that whoever salutes first means that whoever compromises first will show their future subordination.
Jin Yao didn't speak, just looked at Zhao Qian, that little girl who was once carefree, but now her eyes were no longer clear, but full of sorrow, sadness, and helplessness.
Zhao Qian is also looking at Jin Yao. The boy who was once trustworthy and admired has now become her enemy, a villain who wants to steal her homeland.
"Go down and rest when you're tired. I'll take care of everything!" Jin Yao spoke first, looking at the complex expressions of helplessness, sadness, confusion, etc. in Zhao Qian's eyes, and said calmly.
When Zhao Qian listened to Jin Yao's words, for a moment she really wanted to ignore everything and hide in the palace without doing anything. But now she has too many relatives behind her. Once she really lets go, those people will die.
!
"General Li Mu, take King Zhao down to rest!" Jin Yao knew that Zhao Qian didn't want to let go and couldn't let go, so he looked at Li Mu beside Zhao Qian.
Li Mu looked at Jin Yao and then at Zhao Qian, also a little at a loss. He was the Zhao general and should maintain the authority of King Zhao, but the man in front of him was the king of Zhao he hoped to appear, so he was also struggling.
, took half a step but stopped again.
"Grandfather, take the queen back to the palace to rest!" Jin Yao looked at Ji Luo, and only Ji Luo would listen to him.
Ji Luo sighed, walked up to the general stage, came to Zhao Qian, and whispered, "Queen, let's go!"
Zhao Bao and other clan members all glared at Jin Yao and Ji Luo, but they had no choice but to look at Li Mu and Lian Po with hatred.
"Li Mu, as a general of Zhao, how could you let someone insult the queen like this!" A member of the clan shouted angrily at Li Mu.
Li Mu finally took back the half-step he took, closed his eyes, turned a deaf ear, and chose to ignore it.
"General Lian Po, General Le Cheng!" Zhao Bao looked at Lian Po and Le Cheng. Now the only ones who can stop Jin Yao are Lian Po and Le Cheng who have heavy troops.
Le Cheng looked at Lian Po, then at Zhao Bao and Jin Yao, and finally chose to look at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, telling himself that he was just a nobody, just a traitor general of the Yan State, and the struggle in the court and the
He has nothing to do with it.
Lian Po seemed to be being roasted on the fire. In name, he was the general of Zhao State and should be stopped. However, he hoped that Zhao State would have a king who could reassure him and a like-minded king. Jin Yao was very worried.
He is obviously such a king.
In the face of ideals and righteousness, he is also struggling. The Imperial Guards in Handan are in his hands. If he disagrees, not even Ji Luo can stop him.
"Queen, let's go! This is not the place you should be!" Ji Luo looked at Zhao Qian and urged again.
"Mr. Zhao has actually given up on you and doesn't need you. You are just a transitional person!" Ji Luo said from the bottom of his heart.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhao Qian listened to Ji Luo's words, and she didn't know that the Zhao family only needed her because the Zhao country had no young master at that time, so she could only act in a hurry.
, let her become the King of Zhao for the time being, and will still let her marry her cousin in the future to return the royal power.
But this is her home country after all.
"Go, or they will all die!" Jin Yao knew what Zhao Qian was thinking and spoke again. Although it was a cruel and painful choice for Zhao Qian, it could only be like this. This is how the struggle for royal power is.
Zhao Qian looked at Li Mu beside her, and Li Mu lowered his head in shame. Of course, if Zhao Qian gave an order, he would still obey it.
Zhao Qian understood, so she looked at Lian Po, Le Cheng and other Zhao generals. Lian Po and Le Cheng also lowered their heads in shame, making Zhao Qian understand their choice even more.
"You..." Zhao Bao angrily scolded Lian Po, Le Cheng and Li Mu.
"Have you forgotten who gave you your current status and who made you famous all over the world? Is this your reward? How can you have the face to see the late king!" Zhao Bao blushed angrily and grabbed his neck.
He grabbed Lian Po's collar and scolded him.
Lian Po looked at Zhao Bao and let him grab him. He even received a slap but did not move a step. He said a word and let Zhao Bao vent his anger.
"He is more suitable to be King Zhao!" Li Mu whispered to Zhao Qian. He was also talking to his heart. He also needed an excuse and reason to convince himself and make his inaction feel at ease.
"He is more suitable to be the King of Zhao!" Lian Po also persuaded himself in his heart and found an excuse for himself not to act.
"Zhao is so fierce and aggressive in seventy cities, but not a single man is a man!" Zhao Bao looked sadly at the military generals and civil and military officials around him, but no one stood up to stop him.
Everyone they looked at lowered their heads, not daring to look into his eyes.
"Okay, okay, what a good idea. It was me who blindly lured the wolf into the house and recommended you to be the minister. I thought you would be another prime minister of the Zhao Kingdom, but unexpectedly, it was my Zhao family who stole the country!" Zhao Bao looked sadly.
Xiang Jinyao suddenly drew his sword and stabbed him straight.
Zhao Bao never thought that the young boy who was hiding behind the Six-fingered Black Man, that energetic young man, would now become a thief of their Zhao country.
It's a pity that Zhao Bao's sword failed to hit Jin Yao. Even before he could even step onto the platform, his feet were frozen by a wisp of ice energy from Bingbai God, and he stopped there.
On the steps of Dianjiangtai, he could only stare angrily.
"Xiangbang is old, go back and take care of yourself!" Jin Yao said again.
"You..." Zhao Bao glared at Jin Yao, but found that there were two more Mohist disciples beside him. They grabbed his arms one on the left and one on the right, and forcibly took him away from the general platform and out of the palace.
.
"I shall be the Emperor of Zhou and take charge of the State of Zhao. Who is dissatisfied?" After seeing Zhao Bao being taken away, Jin Yao glanced at the ministers of the State of Zhao below.
I don't know when, many strange faces appeared in the palace, and a crossbow machine was already cocked and pointed at the ministers.
"The chief debater is one of the most talented people in the world. Wouldn't his actions chill the hearts of everyone in the world?"
However, this is the Warring States period after all. There are many righteous men who are not afraid of death and dare to speak out for justice at the expense of their own lives. Young people among the ministers and officials came out one by one, unbuttoned their clothes, and faced the cold
Crossbow arrows.
"A generous burial!" Jin Yao looked at these young talents, turned around slowly, and waved down his long sleeves.
"Swish, swish, swish~" Cold arrows shot out from the crossbow machine one after another, piercing the bodies of all the officials who dared to stand up.
"You will be punished!" Someone roared and scolded, and finally became silent under the rain of arrows.
"As the Emperor of Zhou, I am in charge of the Kingdom of Zhao. Who else can object?" Jin Yao spoke again and asked facing the Zhao Palace.
But this time, looking at the corpses on the ground and the blood flowing, no one dared to stand up and object.
"Since there is no objection, let's get ready. Sikong Mansion will choose a day to crown him and announce it to the world!" Jin Yao turned around and looked at Zhao Guo Sikong.
"Here!" Zhao Guosikong stepped forward and saluted.
They didn't want to speculate on how the Mohist disciples and dead soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty could enter the palace, but they also knew that this was Lian Po's tacit approval, so it didn't matter whether they agreed or not. Anyone who dared to resist was already dead.
"From now on, there will be no Jin Yao in the world, only Ji Yao, the Emperor of Zhou!" Jin Yao looked at the sky and sighed.
That young man who only wanted to cheat and abduct, that young man who just wanted to lie down and abduct his apprentice back to the mountain, was pushed down a path that was counterproductive time and time again.
"See you, Emperor Zhou!" Li Mu, Lian Po, Le Cheng and others, along with all the officials of the Zhao Kingdom, bowed and saluted.
The original hesitation, but after the overall situation has been decided, there is only one way to go. I just hope that my choice is not wrong.
"Each of you should perform your duties!" Jin Yao waved his hand and led Bingbai Shensha towards the Zhao Palace on the Dragon Platform.
Li Mu, Lian Po, and Le Cheng all looked at each other bitterly.
"I hope we didn't choose the wrong person this time!" The three of them prayed secretly.
The news that Emperor Zhou was established and took charge of the State of Zhao soon spread from Handan to the capitals of Xianyang, Daliang, Xinzheng, Ji, Linzi, Shouchun and other countries. The emperor's coronation ceremony was also scheduled for the beginning of the new year, and envoys from various countries were invited to watch the ceremony.
It's just that the responses vary from country to country.
In the Xianyang Palace, all the officials of the Qin State looked at Ying Zheng and talked about it. Some people looked down upon Jin Yao and Li Daitao, who had stolen the throne of Zhao State. They asked the King of Qin to refuse to send envoys to observe the ceremony and not to recognize Jin Yao's identity.
"He came so quickly. I thought he would marry the King of Zhao first, and then establish his own heir as the King of Zhao, so as to control the Zhao family!" Ying Zheng sighed. He knew that Jin Yao must be capable of taking charge of the Zhao country.
But he didn't expect that Jin Yao would directly take charge of Zhao State with such thunderous means.
"I also thought he would marry the King of Zhao first and become the king behind the Zhao State to alleviate the hostility of the Zhao State." Lu Buwei also lamented.
They were thinking of the smoothest way to hand over the king's power, but they didn't expect that Jin Yao would directly take charge of Zhao State with such thunderous means.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What is even more unexpected is that all the military generals of Zhao State actually chose the default.
"We all underestimated his prestige among Zhao**!" Lu Buwei said.
They never thought that Jin Yao had such influence in the Zhao army and could directly influence nearly half of Zhao's generals.
"Let's send envoys. Once the dust has settled, what's the point of Qin denying it?" Lu Buwei finally made the decision to send envoys from Qin to observe the ceremony and hand over credentials.
In the Shouchun Palace, King Chu Wan also looked at Chunshen Lord Huang Xie, wanting to know what he meant.
"We are far apart from the State of Zhao, and we have a common enemy, the State of Qin, so there is no need to antagonize the State of Zhao. It doesn't matter if we admit that he is the emperor of Zhou, he can't order me to wait!" Huang Xie said.
"No, I am not convinced. Qin and Zhao are feuding. Even if they are at odds with me, Jingchu, I will still fight against Qin. Therefore, I will never recognize his status as the emperor of Zhou, and I will spread the news of his occupying the magpie's nest throughout the world.
This Central Plains only needs one overlord, and that is our Kingdom of Chu!" King Chu finished speaking and refused to send an envoy.
Huang Xie looked at King Chu, shook his head helplessly, and didn't say much else.
In the palace of Daliang Palace, King Xi of Wei looked at Lord Xinling and the ministers. Their feud with Jin Yao was unsolvable. He also knew that they were the ones who were almost killed by Li Daitao and occupied the magpie's nest.
"Send envoys, we need Zhao to help us fight against Qin!" King Wei made the final decision, swearing his absolute rights in Wei.
Han Wangan was waiting for the news from other countries before deciding his own course. After waiting for Daliang's decision, he also sent envoys to watch the ceremony and congratulate him.
Queen Jun and Qi Wangjian looked at the information in their hands and finally understood why Jin Yao rejected Qi Guo's request. It turned out that the other party wanted more and they couldn't afford it.
"Send envoys to observe the ceremony. Our Qi State has not participated in the disputes between other countries for a long time. There is no need to offend Zhao State on this matter!" The Queen finally sent envoys to Handan to observe the ceremony.
In Jicheng, Ji Dan looked at the summons in his hand. The Mohists said that they had killed their father and master, but they themselves were not the same. They were even more ruthless than themselves and had directly stolen a country.
"Gu does not recognize his identity as Emperor Zhou!" Ji Dan refused to send an envoy.
Because he knew very well that once he recognized Jin Yao's identity as Emperor Zhou, the Yan State, as a descendant of the Zhou Dynasty, would be subject to the orders of Emperor Zhou, so he would never be able to proclaim himself a minister in front of Jin Yao.
Therefore, in the end, only Qin, Wei, Han, Qi and Zhongshan Wei sent envoys to Handan to observe the ceremony. Yanchu in the south and north refused to recognize the fact that Emperor Zhou was in charge of Zhao.
"As expected!" Jin Yao didn't care about receiving rewards from various countries. It didn't matter whether the countries recognized it or not. What was important was that he wanted to truly control the entire Zhao country.
