Chapter 330 The Chaos Demon King of Zhao Kuo's Family
Li Mu didn't even play any role in this battle. Pang Gong had already defeated Yan's general Ju Xin. The entire Yan army was wiped out. Most of the Yan soldiers chose to surrender, and the rest of the soldiers also
Fleeing the battlefield. Yan's 100,000-strong army was all defeated in just a few months. The King of Yan was very frightened. He was worried that the Zhao people would continue to conquer Yan, so he hurriedly sent people to his allies.
Ask for help.
Qin also did not want Zhao to annex Yan, so it mobilized troops in Taiyuan, Shangdang and other areas to force Zhao to stop its conquest of Yan. This made King Zhao very angry and helpless, because although Zhao
After defeating the State of Yan, he failed to obtain the corresponding land and population, and gained absolutely nothing. King Zhao wanted to expand his territory and obtain the land of the State of Yan to enhance the strength of the State of Zhao, but his ministers had no choice.
The State of Qin was watching with eager eyes, and they had no way to attack the State of Yan again.
Someone in Yan proposed to move the capital, but King Yan could not find anyone with whom he could discuss important domestic matters. King Yan first summarized the reasons for the failure. This defeat was entirely due to Ju Xin's incompetence. Ju Xin took ten
Tens of thousands of troops were no match for Pang Nuan, who commanded tens of thousands of soldiers. I heard that Pang Nuan was already over eighty years old and was about to be buried. Ju Xin couldn't even defeat such an old man. Isn't it his fault?
?
So the King of Yan ordered the arrest of Ju Xin's heirs. Before Ju Xin went on the expedition, he asked his heirs to resign their official positions and leave the country of Yan. The King of Yan was unable to do so, and suffered from the fact that there was no one around him who could discuss important matters with him.
, he could only rely on his allies again. He very much hoped that the State of Qin could send a talented person to serve as the Prime Minister of the State of Yan. It would be best if Ma Fujun came to the State of Yan to serve as the Prime Minister of the State of Yan.
At this moment, Pang Gong was still camping not far from the Kingdom of Yan, waiting for the order from King Zhao.
After burying his friend, Pang Gong looked a little more miserable than before. He sat alone in the tent. His last friend of the same era was also sent away by him personally. From then on,
Pang Gong could no longer find anyone to recall the past with... Sometimes, Pang Gong couldn't control himself, and his tears couldn't help falling, and he himself didn't understand why he was crying.
.
The generals were the first to discover Pang Gong's abnormality. Pang Gong became a little withdrawn and could hardly be seen speaking. Some soldiers guarding the door of the camp would hear Pang Gong sitting in the tent chatting, as if he was talking.
He was arguing with someone, but there was obviously no one in the tent except him.
At this time, the envoys from Yan State also came to Xianyang.
The King of Qin came to summon him in person. There were many ministers sitting next to the King of Qin. Today's ministers are no longer as united as before. They are divided into two factions, headed by the Prime Minister and the King of Qin respectively. Of course, the contradiction between them is still
It has not been made public. After all, they are all ministers of the Qin State. However, some people hope that the King of Qin will take charge of the government as soon as possible, and some hope that the King of Qin will take the office when he is older.
The relationship between Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei has not been affected. Lu Buwei has always respected Ying Zheng and governed the country diligently. Ying Zheng has not raised the issue of pro-government. It is better to let the ministers raise this matter.
It is somewhat inappropriate to mention it myself. Because the relationship between the two leaders is very good, the relationship between the two factions is also very good. For example, Meng Wu of the Young Faction and Meng Ao of the Elder Faction who support the Prime Minister, their
We have a very good relationship and we get along like family members.
The envoy from the State of Yan seemed a little hurried. He first explained the respect King Yan had for the King of Qin, and then told the dangers that the State of Yan was currently facing. Finally, he just told the King of Yan's thoughts. The State of Yan wanted the Qin State to send
When a wise man came to serve as the prime minister, the envoy from Yan State trembled and said: "Your Majesty... You hope that... Wu Chengjun can go to Yan State..."
Ying Zheng, who was sitting on top, suddenly laughed. He laughed for a moment and then asked: "You want Ma Fujun to go to Yan State to serve as the Prime Minister? Then do you want to send General Meng Ao to Yan State to serve as a general? Or else?
Why don't you just let me go to the Yan Kingdom to be the king?" Ying Zheng's face became even colder, and he was about to give an order to drive out this arrogant envoy of the Yan Kingdom, but Lu Buwei stood up in a hurry and said with a smile: "Your Majesty
, please don’t be angry, as an ally, it is reasonable to help Yan State."
Only then did Ying Zheng hold back his anger. He squinted his eyes and thought for a moment. If the Qin State could send someone to serve as the Prime Minister of the Yan State, then the Qin State would be able to control the Yan State's internal affairs. This was a great opportunity for the Qin State.
A very beneficial thing... Ying Zheng nodded and said: "Okay, then let's ask the prime minister to take charge of this matter." Lu Buwei left with the envoy of Yan State, but Han Fei
He stayed because he had something to report to the King of Qin.
When only he and Han Fei were left in the palace, Ying Zheng chuckled lightly. He was no longer as serious as before. He smiled and asked, "Brother, what do you want to tell me?" Han Fei was here.
During the years of the Qin Kingdom, everyone was devoted to the law. He continued to improve the laws of the Qin Kingdom, added many regulations, and realized his own ideas in the Qin Kingdom. Han Fei's Legalist thoughts were influenced by Ma Fujun.
The influence of the people is everywhere, and the core of focusing on the people is everywhere.
Han Fei first abolished those laws that were too harsh, reduced the number of prisoners in Qin, and at the same time increased restrictions on officials and kings. Not long ago, Han Fei passed two fundamental protection laws.
The law must protect the personal safety and property safety of the people. These two laws stipulate that no one can kill the people in the country at will and cannot plunder their property, including the king.
In other words, the king cannot kill people in the country at will just because he doesn't like it. If the king wants to punish others, he must do it according to the legal procedures.
This was definitely a huge breakthrough in terms of law. When Zhao Kuo heard about this, he jumped up happily and said to the people around him: "Han Fei's knowledge has surpassed mine! Because of this matter
After all, he can be called Han Feizi!" Han Fei promulgated many relevant laws, such as war laws, migration laws, land laws, tax laws, etc. Han Fei assigned all domestic behaviors to laws.
The foundation is not allowed to be destroyed by anyone.
Because of his actions and Zhao Kuo's evaluation, Han Fei became the second great sage in the country and even had his own disciples. Those disciples followed Han Fei to learn and record Han Fei's words and deeds.
, Han Fei always felt very strange when he saw them writing and writing down his words and deeds. His disciples sorted out Han Fei's daily words and deeds and wrote a book called "Han Feizi"
, but it has not been fully promoted yet.
Han Fei looked at Ying Zheng seriously and then said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the monarch of a country cannot make hasty decisions about the country just because of his own anger. Just now you wanted to expel him because of the words of the Yan State envoy.
Is this kind of behavior beneficial to the state of Qin? Is the king's behavior in line with the interests of the country or to satisfy his own emotions?"
"My teacher once said: There are three stupid behaviors for people who govern a country. As a prime minister, you exclude talented ministers because of your personal feelings. As a general, you send troops out of anger because of your personal feelings. As a king, you send troops because of your personal feelings.
Destroying the interests of the country. Because of his origin, the prime minister was slandered by others before he became the prime minister. However, he did not reject these people after he became the prime minister. The generals in the country, like Meng Ao, although they have relations with other countries
He hates others, but he never proposed sending troops because of his hatred."
"How could you do such a thing?"
Qin Wangzheng lowered his head and said seriously: "I understand, I will never do such a thing again."
.......
At this moment, Lu Buwei was a little angry. Zhang Tang, who was sitting in front of him, also lowered his head and remained silent. Zhang Tang had been captured by the coalition forces during the war. After the war, the two sides exchanged the captured generals.
.. Lord Xinling also sent him back to Qin. Because of his defeat, Zhang Tang was punished. If it weren't for Meng Ao's protection, he would have been executed at this moment.
Because of this experience, Zhang Tang became a little timid and no longer had the courage he used to have.
Lu Buwei wanted to let Zhang Tang go to Yan State to serve as the Prime Minister, because there were no important positions in the country, and he did not have much ability. It seemed that Zhang Tang was the only minister left who would not let the Qin State overturn. If he sent other ministers,
Lu Buwei was a little worried about the people leaving. The example of Lou Huan was right in front of him. Sending a capable person might help the Yan State to become stronger and stronger quickly and become an enemy of the Qin State. Lu Buwei didn't want to really help the Yan people.
As long as the general strategic direction of Yan State can be controlled well, it will be fine.
Zhang Tang said seriously: "I once attacked the State of Zhao for King Zhaoxiang of Qin, so the State of Zhao resented me and threatened, 'Whoever catches Zhang Tang will be rewarded with a hundred miles of land.' Now you must pass by the State of Yan
Zhao Guo, I can't go, please forgive me." Lu Buwei couldn't force him to go. He tried to persuade him again and again, but Zhang Tang always refused to agree. Lu Buwei had no choice but to order Zhang Tang to retreat.
And this incident quickly spread throughout Qin.
On the outskirts of Xianyang, several children were playing football here. The pavilion director who was passing by wanted to say something, but after being persuaded by the people around him, he could only shake his head and leave. The one who was playing football here was none other than Zhao Kuo.
Son Kang, Kang always gathers his friends in Xianyang to play football here. Kang is seen carrying the ball, running rampant, quickly passing several defenders of the opponent, knocking over a few more, and then kicks
Kang shot the ball into the goal, and Kang laughed and jumped up.
They played for a long time, and everyone felt tired, so they dispersed one after another. Zhao Kang happily bounced the ball and walked towards Xianyang, followed by his friends. Cheng Yu said with some worry: "You are really
It's time to restrain your temper. Wang Bi and Meng Tian don't want to play. You insist on dragging them to play... and you keep bumping into them. When they go back and tell their father, you just wait to be beaten!
"
"Oh, they deserve it. Who told them to look down on those country children? Look at the arrogance on their faces. They are pointing fingers at those children. They have no military merit at all. Relying on the protection of their fathers and ancestors, they really think they are so great.
, they are all grown in six grains!”
"But you don't have military merit either..."
"So I don't look down on others... I just look down on these people who look bad because of their father and grandfather! Besides, didn't they have fun afterwards? They also agreed to continue playing tomorrow, and they
How can you complain?"
"They were so hurt by you. Do you think their parents are blind?"
Zhao Kuo didn't care, just waved his hand and said: "It's okay. Speaking of which, my father hasn't beaten me for several days, and I really miss him..." Cheng Yu was immediately speechless.
Shaking his head, he said: "Oh...Father will be mad at you sooner or later..." As Zhao Kang was talking, he suddenly looked at a child behind him, and then asked: "Luo? What are you doing?"
What's going on? Why are you so silent today? Who bullied you?"
"If you are bullied, just tell me and I will help you fight back, except your parents!"
Luo looked a little thin among these children. He shook his head and said: "No one bullied me... But, did you hear it? The Prime Minister wanted to send someone to Yan State to serve as the Prime Minister, but Zhang Tang did not agree.
.", Zhao Kang thought for a moment, and then asked: "Is there such a thing?", Cheng Yu patted his forehead and said helplessly: "Why don't you know anything... You know Zhang Tang
Who is it?"
"Who is Zhang Tang?"
Cheng Xiu immediately stopped talking, and then Luo continued: "I think... I think I have a way to persuade Zhang Tang and make him agree to the prime minister." Cheng Xiu's eyes widened and he looked at him. He shouted loudly.
Said: "What is your situation? Are you affected by Kang? How old are you? The prime minister can't persuade Zhang Tang, why are you joining in the fun?" Zhao Kang's face gradually became a little serious.
.
"What does this have to do with age? Look at me, children who are several years older than me are no match for me. For example, isn't that Wang Ben several heads taller than me? He doesn't dare to challenge me?"
"Nonsense, after he quarreled with you, you shot an arrow through his crown. He was so scared that he almost peed. How dare he challenge you?" Cheng Xi complained, and then looked at Luo,
He said: "You have to think carefully, you are still very young..." Zhao Kang snorted coldly and then walked up to Luo. He patted Luo on the shoulder and said with a smile: "
Don't be afraid, if you want me to tell you, just go and see the Prime Minister, don't think about anything, and don't listen to the nonsense..."
"You!" Cheng Yu was about to speak when he saw Zhao Kang raising his fist. He took a few steps back and stopped talking.
Zhao Kang put down his fist and said, "Go if you want. What are you afraid of? The prime minister can still eat you?"
Luo nodded and said, "Okay!"
Immediately, he rushed directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion. All the ministers in the Prime Minister's Mansion were very busy. Luo looked around and quickly got in, all the way to Lu Buwei's office. When he walked in, Lu Buwei
He was busy writing something when he saw someone coming, frowned, thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Gan Luo? Are you looking for your father? Your father is not in the house."
"No, I'm here to find you."
"Oh? What do you want from me?"
"I have a way to get Zhang Tang to go to Yan State."
Lu Buwei was furious, and he reprimanded angrily: "Go away! He is indifferent even if I take action personally, what else can you do? Go play somewhere else!" Gan Luo was not afraid, he said seriously: "In ancient times, Xiang
He became Confucius' teacher when he was seven years old. Now that I am twelve years old, why don't you let me give it a try? Why don't you scold me without explanation?"
Lu Buwei looked at him with some surprise. He saw that the child was exceptionally calm and had no fear at all. He nodded and said, "Okay, then go ahead!"
