Zhao Kuo didn't know why Ying Yiren said these things to him. Was he bragging after being drunk? Or was he deliberately trying to humiliate himself and make fun of him? However, Zhao Kuo was not angry, as if he didn't listen.
Understanding Ying Yiren's words, he laughed softly, nodded and said, "Young Master, you are right, that is indeed the case."
Ying Yiren waved to the distance, and with a hint of drunkenness, he said: "I regard Ma Fuzi as a relative, you can come and pay homage to him!" Zhao Kuo turned his head and saw a woman.
She is said to be a woman, but in fact she is very young, probably not more than twenty years old. She wears white clothes on her upper body and a light yellow dress embroidered with patterns. She has her head lowered, her face is pretty, no makeup, and crystal clear.
The transparent face makes people unable to take their eyes away.
She raised her head and smiled softly at Zhao Kuo. Suddenly, all Zhao Kuo's disciples were in a trance, looking dazed and speechless.
Fortunately for Zhao Kuo, what he paid attention to was not the beauty of this woman, but her identity, the biological mother of the First Emperor, and the confusing rumors. Zhao Ji bowed to Zhao Kuo, and Zhao Kuo naturally wanted to return the bow. In this
In that era, there were not so strict etiquette and laws to restrict women. Women could also show their faces, and it was often the case that they would refuse marriages arranged by their parents and marry their lovers.
In this era, women even had the right to divorce. Oh, by the way, only in Qin State, women had the right to divorce. If the husband beat and scolded his wife, or the two parties were quarreling, and the family was in discord, the woman could appeal.
, asked for a divorce. Zhao State still couldn't do it, so they beat you? Then you just have to accept it, who asked you to marry him in the first place. In Zhao State and Yan State, women are more like private property.
Especially in Yan State, men often gave their wives to others. When distinguished guests came, they would also let their wives and concubines sleep with them. Zhao State was better than Yan State, but it was not much better. There were husbands who killed their wives.
Regardless of the circumstances of the crime, in the Qin State, even parents cannot kill their children without informing them of the situation. If the child is unfilial, you can report it to the government, and the government will help you deal with it, but you cannot do so in private
Take action, this is the Qin State that was denounced as barbaric by other countries.
Ying Yiren happily asked Zhao Ji to sit next to him, and said with a smile: "This is my wife, Zhao Ji."
Visiting a person's parents and family is the greatest respect in this era, but asking the other person to visit his parents, and letting his wife and son come to visit him is the greatest courtesy to a person in this era. It can only be given to yourself.
Only a close friend would behave like this.
Ying Yiren said again: "She is pregnant. I don't know whether she is a boy or a girl."
"It must be a man."
"Hahaha, if you wish me well, if it's a boy, then I have to think of a better name."
"Why don't we just call it politics."
"Um?"
"Zhengzhe, Zhengye, is the first political person."
"Meet... Zheng..." Ying Yiren frowned and thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "Okay, if it's really a man, it's Zhao Zheng!", probably because Zhao Ji is still pregnant.
As she was pregnant, Ying Yiren quickly let Zhao Ji leave to rest. Before leaving, Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Kuo with some confusion. Ever since she grew up, when men saw her, they would always stare at her face.
, and she has never encountered anyone who kept staring at her belly, and Zhao Kuo was the first one.
The two chatted passionately for a long time. Ying Yiren suddenly put down the wine cup in his hand and said with a smile: "I want to tell you three things."
"Please tell me."
Ying Yiren lowered his voice, stared into Zhao Kuo's eyes, and said: "The first thing is that the Qin people and the Zhao people are fighting in Shangdang. Zhao General Lian Po knows his troops and is good at fighting. When there is insufficient food and the army has no fighting spirit,
Next, I insisted on not letting the Qin people invade Zhao's land. The Qin State regarded him as the biggest disaster. I followed Lu Buwei's strategy and publicized your reputation vigorously and asked you to succeed Lian Po. I just wanted to let the Qin people
Find a more incompetent opponent."
Zhao Kuo was surprised. He didn't know why Ying Yiren said this to him. He nodded and said, "I have become famous in the Zhao Kingdom these days. It seems that I have to thank you all more."
"You don't have to be polite, this is what you should do." Ying Yiren shook his head and said: "The second thing is that you saw through Lu Buwei's plan, and then told Xu Li and asked Xu Li to speak for General Lian Po.
, and visited Tian Dan, Le Yi and others, just to get the strategy to defeat the Qin people. You sent two people to Shangdang County this morning, fearing that you would inform them of the strategy obtained from them.
General Lian Po."
"You!!" Zhao Kuo could no longer keep calm. He stood up suddenly and glared at Ying Yiren in front of him. How did he know? Discovering the abnormality here, Li Yu and Xing both stood up in the distance.
, Zhao Kuo glanced at them, shook his head, and then sat down again.
"How did you know?"
"How else can we say that Qin is not as good as Zhao? Qin's laws are strict and people are not allowed to wander around, otherwise they will be arrested. People who come and go must be able to prove their identity and carry a certificate, otherwise they will not even
No one can leave the country, and no one dares to open the door. Zhao is different. In Zhao, anyone can wander around without being punished, and outsiders can settle wherever they want without being questioned, and they can bribe the prison gate.
You can go in and out of anywhere at will.”
"Not to mention your actions, even the people of Qin are well aware of what King Zhao has eaten today."
Zhao Kuo looked a little pale. He had the illusion of being stripped naked and standing in front of the Qin people. The Qin people could see his every move, but he knew nothing about it. Zhao Kuo trembled and calmed himself down.
When he got down, he looked at Ying Yiren, and he didn't understand why Ying Yiren said this to him.
"Why are you telling me these things?"
"Please listen with peace of mind, I have a third thing to tell you."
Ying Yiren continued: "Zhao lost on the battlefield. Not only the soldiers, but also the people of Zhao also hated the war. They felt that Zhao's war with Qin for the land of South Korea was not worth the gain.
, the people are all complaining, but at this time, who should they hate? Who caused all this? There were two people who proposed to accept the Shangdang land."
"It's a pity that one of them is King Zhao. Will he allow himself to become the culprit? Of course not, then there is another person. What's even more pity is that the other person is Pingyuan Lord Zhao Sheng. Pingyuan Lord is very famous in Zhao country.
, the scholars all respected and loved him, and of course he could not be the culprit.... Therefore, Lian Po, who failed to repel the Qin people, but lost the land, captured the generals, and suffered many casualties among his soldiers, must become Lian Po.
The culprit."
"If it weren't for his incompetence, how could the current situation have happened? This matter is not to blame King Zhao, nor Lord Pingyuan, but Lian Po. In this situation where there is no way forward and no way back,
Lian Po is destined to be unable to continue to serve as a general. He can only be a victim of King Zhao. In the current Zhao country, Tian Shan's heart is not in Zhao, Le Yi is old and paralyzed, and many of the Shangdang members are Ma Fujun's former subordinates.
In this case, it can only be you."
"King Zhao knows that you are not as good as Lian Po, but what can he do? Among the mediocre people in Zhao State, you are already the best choice."
Ying Yiren grinned and said: "He can only blame Lian Po for the defeat and appoint you. Otherwise, having a young and strong prince who looks at him with eager eyes will make the people complain and the soldiers resentful. He, the King of Zhao,
I don’t want to be trapped in the palace and starve to death. I think to King Zhao, you are just another Lian Po, a Lian Po who can die. If you lose the battle, you will die, and Lian Po, he will
Survive.”
"So, I can only die?" Zhao Kuo asked.
Ying Yiren shook his head and said: "You don't need to die." He stared into Zhao Kuo's eyes and said seriously: "Lu Buwei wants to plan the throne for me. I want you to follow me. I can lead you."
You left the State of Zhao. I originally underestimated you and did not see your talent. You easily saw through Lu Buwei's strategy and were not arrogant because of your reputation. You were able to persuade Xu Li like that. I don't know if you will use your talent.
,But you can definitely become a very good Prime Minister."
"I asked my wife to come to see you and regard you as my relative. Please help me. When I become the king of Qin, I can share the land of Qin with you."
"If I don't agree, I will have no choice but to die on the battlefield?" Zhao Kuo asked.
"Hahaha~~~" Ying Yiren suddenly laughed. At this moment, Zhao Kuo suddenly laughed too. His laughter gradually overshadowed the Ying Yiren in front of him. Ying Yiren stopped laughing.
He laughed and looked at Zhao Kuo in front of him in surprise. Zhao Kuo laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes. He stood up, looked at Ying Yiren in front of him, and said loudly: "In Mafu Township, there used to be a prisoner.
Door, I don’t like this person’s flattery, and his younger brother died in the Danhe River.”
"I once had a fellow countryman who was a shoemaker. He starved to death at home."
"When I came to Handan, I saw a young gatekeeper. He also died."
"They can all die!! Why can't I, Zhao Kuo, die?!"
Ying Yiren was stunned. Fortunately, Li Yu and others had already stood up, with their hands on the hilts of their swords. Zhao Kuo shook his head, looked at Ying Yiren again, and said, "Please tell General Bai Qi,
Indiscriminate killing of soldiers is not a good thing for Qin's conquest. If this is the case, I am afraid that no one will dare to seek refuge with Qin in the future, and the people of the world will continue to regard Qin as a barbarian and hate Qin's tyranny.
.”
"If we meet on the battlefield in the future, please General Bai Qi to let go of the soldiers. If you want to kill, then kill me, Zhao Kuo."
