Chapter three hundred and seventy-four will become the parent of the big father
"If this is your Majesty's order, then please allow me to come and say goodbye to you in person."
Li Mu looked at Guo Kai in front of him seriously. Guo Kai's face became a little pale at that moment. Soon, he laughed. Guo Kai nodded and said, "This is what it should be. I'll go back."
Just tell your Majesty... Your Majesty also misses you very much. In these days, he always mentions you..." Guo Kai said this, and Li Mu finally dispelled some doubts in his heart.
Because during these days, the ministers wanted to visit King Zhao, but they were all stopped by Guo Kai. This made Li Mu feel that something was wrong. He suspected that Guo Kai had controlled King Zhao to achieve some ulterior motives.
Purpose. And Li Mu just said that to confirm his idea. Guo Kai sighed, and then said: "Zhao Kang of Qin State captured Yunzhong, and now he is eyeing Yanmen County. I don't know what you have.
What’s the strategy to defeat the enemy?”
Guo Kai is the current Prime Minister of Zhao State. He came to him to discuss business matters. Naturally, Li Mu did not think much about it. He said seriously: "The biggest problem of Zhao State now is food. If you want to solve the food problem, you can't
Let the war affect the farming and mulberry affairs, so I want to concentrate on training a group of elite soldiers in Yanmen, Dai and other areas. The number does not need to be large, one hundred thousand is enough."
"The strength of the army lies in the quality of soldiers rather than the quantity... That's the truth. As long as I can train a hundred thousand elites, I can block most of Qin's attacks. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I can let Sima Shang attack
Yan State, destroy the Yan State, reclaim the land there, and increase food production... If the Qin State attacks in an all-out way, we can move the capital from Handan to Dai, or even retreat to the land of the Yan State, using the terrain and cold weather
The climate to resist the Qin people..."
Li Mu talked about the many methods in his mind, and Guo Kai nodded from time to time.
Speaking of which, Guo Kai and Li Mu had no personal grudges at first. Guo Kai and Lian Po were enemies. However, when Guo Kai sent the queen to King Zhao, Li Mu accused Guo Kai of this behavior. Gradually, the two sides gradually
Resentment arose, but they did not completely break up. History had some changes before Lu Buwei was deposed. In real history, Qin abandoned its original diplomatic strategy.
After the death of King Zhao, Li Mu took full responsibility to continuously repel Qin's invasion and even defeated Qin. The Qin State was helpless. Wang Jian saw that he had no way to destroy Li Mu, so he proposed to bribe Guo Kai and use
A counter-intentional plan was used to kill Li Mu... After Lu Buwei retained his position, Lu Buwei continued Qin's foreign policy and directly bribed Guo Kai, who was not very determined at first, making him Qin's secret agent in Zhao.
Guo Kai is not stupid. He can see the difficulties faced by Zhao State. If he wants to maintain his future glory and wealth, Qin State is of course the best support.
Therefore, in a world that is gradually changing, Guo Kai was already thinking about how to get rid of Li Mu before King Zhao passed away. Lu Buwei valued Guo Kai very much, and he even hoped to directly let him go through Guo Kai.
Zhao State surrendered without a fight. Guo Kai smiled and listened to Li Mu's many strategies. He also expressed his many thoughts on current domestic government affairs. The two chatted for a long time before Guo Kai left.
Guo Kai returned to the palace and hurriedly found King Zhao.
King Zhao looked dazed and very weak. Guo Kai looked at him in panic and hesitated to speak. King Zhao saw Guo Kai's appearance and struggled to get up. Unfortunately, he couldn't sit up at all. Guo Kai wiped
Tears told him not to move. King Zhao took a deep breath and then asked: "What happened? Make you so panicked?" Guo Kai said: "The scout said that the Qin people are gathering troops in the clouds...
"
"I'm afraid they want to take action against Yanmen County."
King Zhao frowned and said angrily: "You villain who doesn't keep his promise... let Mr. Wu An go to Yanmen... Mr. Wu An once trained soldiers in Yanmen, and most of them are herdsmen there, so the recruitment will not affect him."
Farming." King Zhao said and couldn't help coughing again. Guo Kai lowered his head and said: "I told Lord Wu An the same thing. Lord Wu An said he wanted to say goodbye to you in person..."
"Alas... I know it..."
...
At the end of the tenth year of King Qin's reign, Zhao Kuo finally returned to Xianyang.
Naturally, the King of Qin led his ministers to greet him. This seemed to have become a routine. However, Zhao Kuo also deserved such a welcome, because his previous expedition directly destroyed the Wei State. Speaking of which, Zhao Kuo really did it this time.
When the mixed army attacked, it was Wang Jian who blocked the Zhao State, and it was Meng Wu who defeated the Wei Army. Zhao Kuo's main force did not even encounter any resistance. But because he was the commander-in-chief of the Qin State, the greatest credit must be attributed to him.
.
When Zhao Kuo saw the people who came to greet him, he also discovered something different from the usual. After the King of Qin took office, the Qin State began to change. The ministers standing beside the King of Qin were all replaced by young people.
, except for Lu Buwei, there is no one who is particularly old. People like Hu Yang, Sima Geng, and Zhang Tang can no longer be seen. It is probably because the King of Qin asked them to go back and spend their old age in peace.
Now standing beside King Qin are Lu Buwei, Han Fei, Li Si, Liao, Wang Jian, Meng Wu, Huan Jue, Qiang Yu, Yang Duanhe, Kang, Qi and others... It can be said that after the veteran gradually stepped out of the stage,
The State of Qin was still full of talents, and there were even several young people whom Zhao Kuo didn't know, standing among these people. The King of Qin led his ministers to pay homage to Zhao Kuo. After the ceremony, Zhao Kuo got on the carriage and headed towards the palace.
Go.
"How is the situation in Dongjun and Sanchuan counties?"
"It's not bad. The two county guards you sent are both capable. They organized the people to build roads, build pavilions, and resettle people's houses... We can survive this year, and every place is ready for spring planting.
, wait until next year... they will be self-sufficient and no longer need relief..." Zhao Kuo spoke seriously about the situation in Wei. King Qin just listened. It was not until Zhao Kuo finished talking about the general situation that King Qin
He nodded with satisfaction.
"That's good...The next step is to let the people of Wei cultivate their health...let them see changes in a short time and let them know that they will live a better life under Qin's rule...
", Ying Zheng said, and then he secretly glanced at Zhao Kang in the distance. He smiled and said: "By the way, you don't know, right? Kang went to Yunzhong and took more than 20,000 people with him to capture the entire city.
In the clouds..."
Zhao Kuo looked very calm and said: "I already know that Zhao Guo transferred the general guarding Yunzhong to Handan. This is just good luck."
"He is still young...it is already very good to have such a record."
"I hope he loses the battle and can change his temper... I'm afraid that with his character, he will make big mistakes in the future." Zhao Kuo sighed, and the carriage had already arrived at the palace. Everyone got out.
In the car, the King of Qin took Zhao Kuo's hand and invited him to the palace with the greatest etiquette. The ministers took their seats. The King of Qin first told Zhao Kuo's achievements, then rewarded him, and finally announced the start of the banquet.
The banquet was not sumptuous, because King Qin knew Zhao Kuo's character and knew that he hated extravagance and waste... This banquet was more relaxed. The ministers sat together to discuss various matters. The first person to come to Zhao Kuo was Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei laughed.
Hehe asked about Wei Di's affairs, and the two exchanged ideas on how to manage Wei Di. Zhao Kang also came to his father's side at some point, and sat next to him with a silly smile.
Lu Buwei glanced at Zhao Kang and then left with a smile.
"Father..." Zhao Kang grinned and said with some pride: "I defeated Yunzhong!" Zhao Kuo snorted coldly and then said: "Looking at your look, I don't know what you think.
You defeated Handan!" Zhao Kang shrank his head and did not dare to be embarrassed again. He was a little aggrieved. Zhao Kuo then said helplessly: "How did I teach you in the past? I asked you to treat the soldiers well.
Be considerate of the soldiers... It's better for you to ignore the soldiers and only focus on playing football..."
Zhao Kang said aggrievedly: "I did not kill the prisoners, and I did not commit any crime against the local people..."
"oh..."
The two were chatting, but Han Fei came over, paid homage to Zhao Kuo, and then sat next to him. Han Fei also came for government affairs. Since the last debate with Zhao Kuo, Han Fei jumped out.
Facing the pitfalls of jism, he gave up the state's approach of completely controlling the people and began to explore other paths. Zhao Kuo had already told him that Qin's current system could not continue after the war.
And if we suddenly abandon the current system, I am afraid it will cause huge chaos.
Han Fei said: "After one king and the world, the original enfeoffment will definitely be abolished, with counties and counties as the basis, and Xianyang will be directly responsible for the county magistrates. However, after one king and the world, the Qin State will probably have more than a thousand counties.
It is extremely inconvenient to come and go... It is impossible for Xianyang to be directly responsible for the government affairs of various places, and there will be thirty or forty counties... If the commander is based on the counties, the military and political affairs must be separated... I think we can set up a standing
Soldiers, we will no longer recruit people from all over the country to gather for training..."
"Xianyang will directly command the standing soldiers, so that local governments no longer have military power... The supervisory system must be perfected... The supervisory system must be separated from the administrative system, and restrictions must be placed on county guards to prevent civil strife...
.Stop foreign wars, and transition the military system to farming and textile rewards...The next laws tend to constrain local power and restrict the king's power..."
Han Fei expressed many of his thoughts, and Zhao Kuo thought about it carefully, but found that many of his proposals had already been reflected in the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties, including relocating local nobles, monopolizing coins, salt and iron, unifying chaotic doctrines, and establishing a unified system in counties and counties.
The idea of setting up a supervisory agency above and prohibiting illegal politicians from serving as officials is completely the prototype of the economic and political system of the Han Dynasty... Even the appointment of officials in the school is very similar to the Taixue system of the Han Dynasty.
However, it seems quite reasonable for these systems to complete the transition?
When the banquet was over, Zhao Kuo hurriedly pulled Zhao Kang out of the palace. He had not been home for a long time. He missed his family very much. The news of Zhao Kuo's return to Xianyang was not kept secret. Yi had long since
Knowing that Zhao Kuo was coming back, she prepared meals in advance and waited for Zhao Kuo to come back. Even Shan had prepared gifts. When Zhao Kuo stepped into the house with a smile, Shan Bian pounced on him like a wombat.
hang on his body.
Zhao Kuo smiled, took Shan's hand, and walked to Yi.
The children were still here, so the two naturally couldn't get too close. They just looked at each other for a moment. After Zhao Kuo went to visit his mother, the family began to sit down to eat. Shan took out a gift. It turned out to be clothes she had woven herself. Although
It didn’t look very good... There was also a dog embroidered on it, and Shan said it was a tiger... Well, Zhao Kuo liked it very much anyway. They chatted for a long time, and Yi suddenly asked about Cheng Xi.
Zhao Kuo smiled and said: "Don't worry about him. He is working in the school in Zheng County... teaching students. Before I came back, I went to see him. His knowledge has improved greatly and his changes have been great...
.He said he would take time to visit you soon..."
Yi was relieved and didn't ask any more questions.
Zhao Kang couldn't help but said: "He can teach his disciples in the school?? Then I can open a school..."
Zhao Kang had not spoken before, but Yi had forgotten about him. As soon as he spoke, Yi Fang remembered what he had done, and told Zhao Kuo all of Zhao Kang's bad deeds. Zhao Kang's smile gradually solidified.
In the following days, Zhao Kuo stayed at home and accompanied his family at ease. The cold winter came as expected. Fortunately, Zhao Kuo did not hear any bad news in this cold winter. On this day, Ying Zheng wore
The plainclothes man hurried to Zhao Kuo's mansion. He looked a little excited and spoke incoherently. He sat in front of Zhao Kuo. He hesitated for a long time and then whispered: "Ming is pregnant..."
"What did you say?!"
Yi's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe it.
"Ming is pregnant...it was the imperial doctor who told her personally...and it must have been a while, and she didn't even know it herself..."
"Hahaha~~" Yi laughed, she hurriedly walked up, pushed Ying Zheng, and said: "Quick, quick... take me to the palace, I want to see Ming... you people, you
I don’t know how to take care of the child... What are you doing here? How can you trust her to be alone?" Yi said, then she looked at Zhao Kuo behind her, and she said: "Go and get ready, go.
The palace is visiting your grandson!”
Zhao Kuo was stunned for a long time, he was going to be a grandfather??
"He's not born yet... Look at you, you've scared the baby... What's the rush?" Zhao Kuo frowned and scolded Yi a few words, then hurriedly returned to the inner room and changed into his clothes.
Clothes, followed Yi and left home. Shan Nao wanted to go with her. Zhao Kuo naturally wanted to take her with him. Only Zhao Kang looked at Zhao Kuo faintly and murmured in a low voice: "Brothers already have children...I
Still alone..."
Zhao Kuo and Yi suddenly arrived, and Ming was also shocked.
She lowered her head, very shy, and Yi Ze sat beside her, gently explaining some things to her in a low voice.
Zhao Kuo sat not far away with a smile, looking at Ying Zheng beside him, with mixed feelings in his heart.
"Treat your children well..."
"Don't worry, if he can't solve the arithmetic problem, I will never yell at him."
