Chapter 715 Loyalty and traitors are in hand, and balancing the court is also an imperial technique.
"What are you still doing? Why don't you go find it quickly!"
There was a touch of panic in these words, and Guo Kaixin knew very well that once this incident spread, it would have a huge impact on Zhao State, and he would definitely be the one to take the blame.
After all, King Zhao cannot be allowed to take the blame himself.
Guo Kaixin knew clearly that his position in Zhao State was to take the blame for King Zhao.
However, Guo Kai has always been very discerning and would not easily get into such a fatal situation.
Because then, he will die.
He knew King Zhao too well. Once the State of Zhao needed it or the situation required it, he would kill him without blinking an eye. Although King Zhao doted on him, he was an extremely selfish person at heart.
Such people, once faced with a life-and-death crisis, will never show any mercy at all.
This kind of person is like Gou Jian, the king of Yue.
This kind of extreme selfishness only considers oneself, and is usually invisible, but at a critical moment, there is no pressure at all to abandon the people around you.
"promise......"
Guanyicheng quickly took the officials to look for Yao Jia. It was only half an hour ago. It would be too late to look for him now.
But in the face of the furious Guo Kai, Guanyicheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it. As for finding it or not finding it, it was beyond his control.
Seeing Guanyi Cheng leading his people away, the driver turned towards Guo Kai and said: "Prime Minister, where are we going?"
"Go to Handan Palace!"
"promise."
Standing on the chariot, Guo Kai took one last look at Guanyi and said coldly: "This group of trash has done everything it can to destroy its original appearance!"
...........
At this point, Guo Kai had no choice but to report the news to King Zhao to minimize the impact of this matter.
He did this not only for himself, but also because this is what a country's prime minister should do.
So, Guo Kai gritted his teeth and walked towards the palace again. He wanted to meet the king and discuss it urgently to resolve the matter.
Guo Kai knew that if Yao Jia deliberately hid and did not show up, even if he was the Prime Minister of Zhao, he would not be able to find him.
Officials at pedestrian offices in various countries are the best at escaping and hiding.
The car rumbled and landed on the uneven bluestone road, making the car a little unstable, just as Guo Kai felt at this moment.
At this moment, Guo Kai was uneasy. At this moment, Zhao Guo could be a little angry, but he couldn't stop when it was too much.
And Yao Jia disappeared, which meant that they were the ones who opened it, but they had no ability to stop it or close it.
"Your Majesty, Guo Kai, pays homage to the King!"
Entering Handan Palace, Guo Kai was more respectful than ever this time and looked a little hasty.
Guo Kai served as King Zhao's companion. While Guo Kai understood King Zhao, King Zhao also knew Guo Kai very well.
Especially the little unknown actions between each other.
Frowning slightly, King Zhao clearly felt that Guo Kai was unnatural, and his tone was a little uncertain: "Guo Kai, Yao Jia didn't come?"
"Your Majesty, when I arrived at Guanyi under orders, the chief of Guanyi informed me that Yao Jia, the envoy of the Qin Dynasty, had already left."
Hearing this, Guo Kai quickly raised his hand to King Zhao and said: "I immediately ordered Guanyi Cheng to lead people to search for Yao Jia, and then I immediately met the king to discuss countermeasures!"
"Goodbye without saying goodbye!"
King Zhao murmured, and at the same time retracted his half-stretched foot. Now that Guo Kai was the prime minister of Zhao, representing the majesty of the Zhao court, King Zhao began to restrain himself from his actions.
After all, after being the king for many years, he became more and more like a king.
"Now that Yao Jia has left, we have lost the initiative in this game. I am afraid that only by cooperating with Ying Gao can we avoid too big a conflict."
King Zhao was unwilling to give up. He originally wanted to take the initiative, but unexpectedly, he completely lost the initiative in the end.
Fortune plays tricks on people, but it’s useless to call them helpless!
After being silent for half an hour, Zhao Dynasty looked at Guo Kai and gave a decisive order, saying.
"Contact Ying Gao directly and ignore Yao Jia. At the same time, we will list Yao Jia as the most unwelcome person in our Zhao country and refuse him entry into Zhao territory. After this matter is over, we will announce it to the world."
"At the same time, I sent an order to Li Mu and Ying Gao to use the road to cross the border. Let Li Mu lead the border troops to follow. They are not allowed to fight, but they cannot let the Qin army disappear out of sight."
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Guo Kai turned around and left. King Zhao did not hold him accountable this time, and Guo Kaixin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Watching Guo Kai leave, King Zhao withdrew his gaze and pondered for a long time before sighing and saying: "The once arrogant Zhao has fallen to this!"
Zhao State has indeed fallen.
The Zhao State was once arrogant, and it was once known as the strongest in Shandong. Unfortunately, after the Changping War, the Zhao State's vitality was severely damaged, and its national fortunes withered.
As of now, it is even worse than before.
…
"General Ying, there is news from Jingyesi that Yao Jia's trip to Zhao is unfavorable, and King Zhao and Guo Kai are dragging them away..."
Tie Ying looked solemnly and said to Ying Gao: "It just so happened that the king issued an edict to intervene in this matter and define Qi Mo as a thug in the name of Great Qin."
"The news reached Yao Jia's ears and Yao Jia left Handan..."
"Hahaha……"
Hearing this, Ying Gao couldn't help but laugh. King Zhao and Guo Kai shot themselves in the foot. This was a mistake of cleverness.
"Deserve it!"
With a sneer, Ying Gao turned to Tie Ying and said, "Send someone over to contact King Zhao in the name of this general."
"Just tell me to have a tougher attitude!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Tie Ying turned around and left. Ying Gao smiled lightly at Wang Hu and said, "Send the order to the army to continue advancing. They must reach the border of Zhao before dark today."
"Let the soldiers present an offensive momentum to the general, let King Zhao know that the general has arrived at the border of Zhao State, and put some pressure on him!"
"promise."
.........
Ying Gao was also extremely curious about King Zhao.
He had a bad relationship with Ying Zheng, and he always hated Ying Zheng because of trivial things, and he was always on the front line against Qin.
He always felt that this person was not simple.
It was the same in all dynasties, not to mention that this was the Warring States Period, a time of great strife. The political power in the Zhao Kingdom was not weaker than that of the Qin Dynasty. Ying Zheng did not obtain the royal power until he took office as a pro-government, but King Zhao took control of the royal power after he ascended the throne.
With loyalties and traitors in hand, balancing the court is also an imperial art.
Although he is not as domineering and powerful as Ying Zheng, he is still an act of a righteous king. Because of this, Ying Gao has never underestimated King Zhao.
Throughout the entire era, none of the people who were able to climb to the throne were good at heart.
With thoughts flashing in his mind, Ying Gao praised Yao Jia's move. In this way, the Qin Dynasty took advantage of the Zhao Kingdom, and the King of Zhao could be more stable.
There were Li Mu and Lian Po in the Zhao State, and Ying Gao was somewhat worried. Both of them were one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, and they were extremely terrifying.
