Zhao Kuo took Ben and other five retainers and finally arrived at Daliang after a long and dusty journey.
Daliang is located on the south bank of Jishui. King Huiwen dug a ditch to connect the rivers, Jishui, Si River and Huaihe River, making Daliang the most prosperous city in the Central Plains.
However, in recent years, as Wei's national power continued to weaken, Daliang also lost its former status and became one of the most prosperous cities.
After arriving in Daliang, Zhao Kuo immediately handed over a greeting card and asked to see the King of Wei.
At this time, above the chasm, a small boat floated slowly on the water...
The King of Wei did not like to stay in the palace. He dealt with endless memorials all day long, listened to endless advice from his ministers, quarreled with him whenever they disagreed, and even scolded him for being a coward.
But he couldn't do anything with these ministers, and for a while he didn't know who was the king and who was the minister.
Long Yangjun is better!
Long Yangjun is the person who understands him best in the world and will never make him angry.
He most likes to play with his beloved Long Yangjun, watching the apricot blossoms in spring, lotus flowers in summer, chrysanthemums in autumn, and plum blossoms in winter.
Beauty and flowers, flowers and beauty.
Year after year, year after year.
In my arms is the most beloved beauty, and in front of me is the infinite country, no one is missing, no one is missing.
Like this, forever...
Every time at this time, King Wei felt that he was the happiest man in the world.
As for those who did not understand them or even slandered them, King Wei never cared about them, nor did Lord Long Yang.
He loves him, he loves him.
enough.
Why care what those mortals think?
On the boat, Long Yangjun nestled happily in King Wei's broad chest. King Wei held Long Yangjun in one hand and held the fishing rod in the other. Although his shoulders were a little numb, King Wei still did not help Long Yangjun up.
.
There were only two people on the ship, King Wei and Lord Long Yang, and no bodyguards.
As long as Lord Long Yang is here, no one in this world can harm King Wei.
Long Yangjun is not just a beautiful vase.
At this time, a rapid sound of horse hooves interrupted the tranquility of the two people.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Kuo, the envoy of the State of Zhao, wants to see you." The knight stood on the shore and shouted towards the boat.
"No." King Wei said impatiently.
"No." The knight got on his horse and prepared to go back and report.
"Wait a minute." King Wei stopped the knight and said with some confusion: "Zhao Kuo?"
"Your Majesty, this is Zhao Kuo." The knight got down from his horse helplessly and said with clasped fists.
"Is that Ma Fuzi Zhao Kuo? Is he the son of Ma Fuzi Zhao She?"
"Your Majesty, it's Ma Fuzi," the knight said.
"Isn't Zhao Kuo in Changping now? I heard that King Zhao appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the Zhao army. There seemed to be news from Zhao a few days ago that Zhao Kuo defeated Bai Qi and killed 200,000 Qin troops.
Why did you come to Daliang?"
Long Yangjun said strangely, his voice was ethereal and sweet, like a ring jingling.
"That's just Zhao people's bragging. How could a kid like Zhao Kuo defeat Bai Qi?" King Wei said disdainfully.
Although he hated that man in his heart, King Wei had to admit that on the battlefield, that man was invincible.
He absolutely did not believe that anyone in this world could defeat that Rentu, it must have been the flattery of Zhao Ren.
Isn't it just hype? He has seen this kind of thing too many times!
But King Wei was also very surprised, why did Zhao Kuo come to Daliang? No matter whether Zhao Guo won or lost, he should not have appeared in Daliang!
"Why did Zhao Kuo come to Daliang?" King Wei asked.
"He...he only said that he had something urgent to see the king," the knight said.
"Is there an emergency? It's probably a matter of asking for help." King Wei waved his hand. "Tell him that I am patrolling down below and not in Daliang."
"promise."
"Your Majesty, we'd better go back in case something urgent happens."
After the knight left, Long Yangjun stood up from King Wei's arms and said while helping King Wei tidy up his clothes.
"Okay, then just listen to the beauty."
The Wei Dynasty waved to the shore, and his own guards prepared the carriage.
…
After being rejected, Zhao Kuo could only turn around and leave with Ben and others disappointed.
"Master, what should we do now?" Ben asked.
"Go find someone and find out where Lord Xinling lives. Let's go visit Lord Xinling." Zhao Kuo said.
If there was anyone in Wei who could help Zhao Kuo, it was Wei Wuji.
Wei Wuji had a far-sighted vision and could definitely see that Zhao and Wei were dying.
Moreover, Wei Wuji's sister married Zhao Sheng. They were both the fourth princes of the Warring States Period. Their talents were among the best in the world, and they both liked to entertain diners, so they had a very good relationship and often exchanged letters.
In the historical Handan Defense War, it was Wei Wuji who stole the talisman to save Zhao, which allowed the Zhao Kingdom to continue for several more decades.
Later, Wei Wuji led the five-nation coalition to defeat the Qin army outside the river, delaying Qin's eastward expansion.
In terms of talent, Wei Wuji is still superior to Zhao Sheng.
After this inquiry, Zhao Kuo found out that Wei Wuji did not live in Daliang, but in Xinling.
Xinling is more than a hundred miles away from Daliang. Early the next morning, Zhao Kuo and his party hurried to Xinling until they met Wei Wuji in the evening.
Wei Wuji was in his prime at this time, wearing a crown of dignity, a small beard at the corner of his mouth, and a jade around his waist. He exuded an elegant temperament, but his body was very tall and full of power. Zhao Kuo could even vaguely
See the muscles hidden under the clothes.
This is a ruthless man who is capable of both literary and military skills!
Wei Wuji was very surprised to see Zhao Kuo, and immediately brought him into his mansion, hosted a banquet for him, and introduced all the guests to Zhao Kuo.
Among these people, Zhao Kuo saw Hou Ying, who offered a plan to steal the talisman, and finally committed suicide, and Zhu Hai, who used a large iron spine to kill the Wei general Jin Bi. They were both heroes of the Zhao State.
I also met Yu, a disciple of Wei Wuji who was not mentioned in the annals of history but was very respected by Wei Wuji.
During the banquet, Wei Wuji asked: "I heard that King Zhao appointed Ma Fuzi as the commander-in-chief of the Zhao army to fight in Changping. I wonder why Ma Fuzi is here?"
Zhao Kuo did not hide anything. He told Zhao Jun's plight and then bowed down: "Zhao and Wei are dependent on each other, and if their lips are broken, their teeth will be cold. The king of Wei does not want to see me, so I can only come to Xinling for help."
Jun. Mr. Pingyuan once told me that you are the most virtuous person in the Wei Kingdom, and I must ask you for advice when I arrive in the Wei Kingdom, and also ask Xinling Jun to help me in the Zhao Kingdom."
"To be honest, when the Qin State first attacked the Zhao State, the Prime Minister Kong Bin and I tried to persuade the King, but the King did not agree. Now that the Prime Minister has retired to live in seclusion, I may not be able to persuade the King with my own strength."
Lord Ling sighed.
Kong Bin has made the truth very clear to King Wei, but King Wei is too afraid of Qin.
"As long as Lord Xinling can take me to see King Wei, even if King Wei doesn't agree, I won't blame you." Zhao Kuo leaned over and said.
"In that case, I will go with you to meet the king tomorrow." Wei Wuji said.
"Thank you, Lord Xinling."
"Mr. Pingyuan once wrote to me that your Zhao country had a great talent named Zhao Kuo. I didn't believe it at first. Now that I have seen him, he is even more famous. It's a pity that there is no one like Ma Fuzi in our Wei country.
Ah!" Lord Xinling sighed with emotion.
"Mr. Xinling is so complimentary." Zhao Kuo said quickly.
