At this time, if the First City sells him weapons, it will be equivalent to using weapons to equip its enemies.
When he reached the bank of the Galloping Horse River, he let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with frost.
Zhao Che walked up to him and asked, "Is the prince worried about the First City launching an attack on Zhao?"
Zhao Ye's eyes narrowed slightly: "As soon as Zhao Yan died, the conflict between Zhao State and the First City was triggered. This battle will happen sooner or later."
Zhao Che glanced at him and said: "Although the First City's weapons are powerful, they are just a city after all, not a country."
Zhao Ye sneered: "Is this what Zhao Yan said?"
Zhao Che nodded, and Zhao Ye's eyes were cold: "If he thinks so, it would be normal for him to die in the First City."
"He has always been arrogant and thought he could control everything in this world. In fact, he is just a big fool."
Zhao Che: "..."
Zhao Ye didn't want to discuss the stupid things Zhao Yan had done with him, so he just asked, "Where is the treasure house that Zhao Yan left behind?"
Zhao Che glanced at him and said solemnly: "I can take the prince to get the treasure house, but I have a request."
Zhao Ye sneered: "I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to make a request at this time."
With a slight wave of his hand, the swords in the hands of the guards were placed on Zhao Che's neck.
Zhao Che didn't take this seriously: "Prince, before you take action, don't you ask me what my request is?"
Zhao Ye said coldly: "It's just something that idiot Zhao Yan told me. It doesn't matter whether he knows it or not."
Zhao Che said, "Your Majesty guessed wrong."
Zhao Ye looked at him, and he sighed softly: "All I ask is that the prince destroys the first city and protects my country, Zhao."
Zhao Ye waved his hand lightly: "This is what I was going to do in the first place. You don't need to ask for it anymore, and..."
His eyes were locked on Zhao Che and he said: "And I hate it when you ask me for anything. Every time you open your mouth, I will think of that idiot Zhao Yan."
Zhao Che smiled: "Although the emperor acted a little recklessly, there was nothing wrong with the decisions he made."
When he said this, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Zhao Guo and First City were originally mortal enemies, but the prince was unwilling to admit it before."
Zhao Ye, however, had lost patience with him and didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore, so he directly asked the guards to escort him into the carriage.
At the same time, the spies reported everything that happened in the First City some time ago to Emperor Cheng Ming.
Emperor Cheng Ming was stunned for a moment when he learned that Zhao Yan led his troops and horses to cross the Benma River and break into the first city.
The relationship between Dayan and the State of Zhao has always been bad. When he heard that Zhao Yan died in the first city and that many of Zhao's soldiers and horses were lost in the first city, he smiled.
He cursed lightly: "Idiot Zhao Yan, if he attacks the first city like this, he is simply seeking death."
"To destroy the first city, we need to lure the soldiers and horses from the first city out of the city."
"He took his soldiers and horses to forcefully cross the Benma River, which is tantamount to killing someone himself."
"And the way he acts will also remind the First City that they can no longer hide in that city."
"Once Zhao Yan dies, Zhao Ye will definitely take the opportunity to gather Zhao Yan's forces, but the First City will not give him any more time to gather them."
"The war between Zhao State and the First City will break out soon."
Li Shiying heard what Emperor Cheng Ming said and did not dare to interrupt. He only reached out and handed over a bowl of medicine: "Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."
Emperor Cheng Ming glanced at the dark concoction in the bowl. There was at least three feet between him and the bowl of concoction, and he could smell the bitter smell.
He said with some disgust: "How long do I need to drink this medicine?"
Li Shiying shrank her neck and did not dare to answer.
Although Emperor Cheng Ming disliked the bowl of medicine, he still drank it in one go.
Li Shiying hurriedly handed over some candied fruits, and Emperor Cheng Ming took one and stuffed it into his mouth, sighing: "I'm afraid I will have to drink this medicine until the day I die."
Li Shiying was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said: "The emperor will live forever and live forever."
Emperor Cheng Ming laughed and said, "My own body knows very well what it means to live forever."
"I should have died a long time ago, but it was only because of my obsession that I managed to survive year after year."
He was not in good health some time ago and was about to die. Even the director of the Tai Hospital thought that he was in danger, but he did not expect that he could survive again.
Although his current physical condition is still not good, it is slightly better than before.
Li Shiying felt that Emperor Cheng Ming should be able to survive for a while longer.
Emperor Chengming sighed softly: "I haven't waited for King Qin to come back, so I can't die yet."
Li Shiying lowered his head and didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.
He wanted to reduce his sense of presence, but he was right in front of Emperor Cheng Ming, and Emperor Cheng Ming could see him as long as he raised his eyes.
He changed the subject: "Your Majesty, there are a few more secret letters sent here. Would you like to read them all now?"
Emperor Chengming nodded slightly and reached out to open the top letter.
When he saw the contents of the letter, his complexion changed drastically, his anger moved, and he coughed violently uncontrollably.
Li Shiying was startled and quickly poured him a glass of water. He still coughed violently after taking a sip.
Li Shiying had no choice but to take out another pill and wait for him to take it.
While he was taking the medicine, Li Shiying glanced at the contents of the letter, and his face changed drastically with fright, and he finally understood why Emperor Cheng Ming had such a reaction.
He knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, my condolences!"
Emperor Chengming let out a long sigh and said, "Don't worry, I can hold on."
"It's just that I didn't expect that I just asked my third son to deliver a dowry to Changping in the First City, and he actually..."
Emperor Chengming had many sons. Because there were so many sons, in his eyes, except for the one with the strongest ability, all the other sons were worthless.
However, as he grew older and suffered from many illnesses in recent years, including the death of several sons during the last uterine change, his mentality gradually changed.
Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with the third prince, he felt that the third prince was too soft-tempered and gentle and was not suitable to be his heir.
But the third prince also has his own advantages, such as he is filial, humble, and has no murderous intentions towards his brothers in the royal family.
Although he was dissatisfied with such a third prince, he did not dislike him either.
Among all his plans, he even left a chance for the third prince to survive.
It's just that he never thought that the third prince would die in such a gentle thing as giving a dowry.
After all, no one could have imagined that Zhao Guoguo would launch an attack at this time.
His eyebrows drooped slightly, and his originally old face looked a little older.
Emperor Chengming said in a deep voice: "The third child died in the hands of Zhao Guo. I must avenge him."
