In Handan City, Zhang Er had a grudge against Li Liang, so he had already sent his confidants to secretly monitor Li Liang. As a result, a series of Li Liang's behaviors on the front line were seen by Zhang Er's confidants, who immediately reported these things to Zhang Er. Zhang Er was frightened and immediately went to the palace to tell King Zhao about the situation. When King Zhao heard that Qin General Wang Li was sending goods, people, and messages to Li Liang on the front line, he was shocked and asked Zhang Er, "Does Li Liang really have second thoughts?" A few days later, Li Liang's The envoy came to Handan and told King Zhao about Li Liang's request to send reinforcements. However, King Zhao had an opinion about Li Liang, so he did not dare to send any more troops.
When the envoy saw that King Zhao did not send troops, he came back and reported to Li Liang. Unexpectedly, Li Liang became angry when he heard that King Zhao refused to send troops, so he said to Xue Yue: "You hold the camp for me. I want to go to Handan City myself. I have to ask the king to send troops to help. I will give you nine days." Time, you can't go out to fight. If Wang Li goes out to fight, you will stick to the camp and I will be here in ten days." Then he galloped towards Handan.
They ran wildly all the way, and when they approached Handan, they slowed down. Everyone was walking when they suddenly heard the noise of people and horses coming from behind. After a while, I saw a group of people galloping over. There was also a luxurious carriage in the middle of the road. There was a guard of honor behind it, and some men and women escorting the driver were also following behind. It looked like the formation was not ordinary. Seeing this scene, Li Liang said to his left and right: "Who else can have such a pomp except King Zhao?" He quickly led everyone to dismount and kneel down on the roadside to greet the driver respectfully.
When the carriage passed by, Li Liang shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Li Liang, respectfully welcomes you!" But there was no reaction in the carriage. Li Liang thought he hadn't heard, so he shouted again: "Your Majesty, Li Liang, respectfully welcomes you!" There was still no response from the car. Li Liang didn't dare to raise his head. After the car passed by, a woman's voice came from the car: "No courtesy, no courtesy." Then there was a burst of laughter. Li Liang hurriedly looked up and saw that the curtain of the car window had lifted up, revealing the head of a woman. She was dressed luxuriously and fashionably. She just poked her head out to look at him, then lowered the curtain and continued to have fun. He drove away with a smile, and the dust raised behind the car blocked Li Liang's sight.
Li Liang was immediately ashamed and ashamed, as if he had been greatly insulted. He immediately stood up and asked those around him: "Who is she?" Someone replied: "She is the king's sister." "Li Liang was so angry that he blushed and said, "Sister Wang, is she also so arrogant? How bold and presumptuous!" Zhang Qiang said: "Now the world is in chaos and heroes are rising. Even if King Zhao is here, he should be polite to the general. Treat each other, let alone a prostitute!" After hearing this, Li Liang gritted his teeth, and then ordered Zhang Qiang: "Hurry up and stop the driver, I will drag her out of the car and throw her on the roadside!" "
Zhang Qiang then led a few people and rushed forward. After a while, he caught up with the car and shouted: "Stop!" The luxurious car stopped. At this time, Li Liang also caught up. He came to the car and said loudly: "Bold lady, get out of the car and see me politely!" It turned out that Sister Wang attended a banquet today and drank too much. He didn't know who Li Liang was at all. When he saw him openly blocking the driver, he raised the window and took a look at Li Liang. He saw this man with white face and purple beard, a pair of triangular eyes, a short and curly beard, and he looked very strange. It was ugly, so he laughed and said: "Sister Wang is here, who dare you to be so presumptuous?" Li Liang said: "Even if the king is here, he should be treated with courtesy, let alone you! If you don't apologize to me today, I will drag you out of the car and throw you on the side of the road!" Sister Wang held the car curtain with one hand and pointed at Li Liang with the other and cursed: "Are you a villager thinking of rebelling? Be careful. I will tell the king when I go back and cut off your roll. The head of a hairy dog!" Li Liang suddenly became furious and screamed angrily. He couldn't help but pull out his sword and stabbed the car with one strike. Just hearing Sister Wang scream, a stream of blood splashed on the car window.
When Sister Wang's attendants saw this scene, they were so frightened that they fled for their lives. Li Liang saw the blood on the car window and knew that he had caused a big trouble. He used his sword to open the door curtain in front of him and found that Sister Wang had been stabbed to death. He asked Zhang Qiang what to do. Zhang Qiang said: "The matter has come to this, there is no point in regretting it, but the king will definitely arrest you and hold you accountable. If you don't do anything, we will simply burn the car and go to Handan as soon as possible to kill that King Zhao. We will support you in doing so." King Zhao, only in this way can the general be in no danger!" After hearing this, Li Liang showed a ferocious smile, and said bitterly: "What you said is exactly what I want! Hehe!" Then he immediately turned around He jumped on his horse and issued an order: "If I kill Sister Wang, you will also be implicated, and you will all die! Now follow me towards Handan City, chop up the military officials first, and then get rid of Zhang Er and Chen Yu." You are a thief, so everyone will be safe!" Everyone shouted long live General Li. Li Liang then ordered the sergeants to burn the carriages first and then rush towards Handan. They killed all of Sister Wang's attendants along the way, and came straight to the city like a savage beast. The soldiers guarding the city all recognized the arrival of the general, and no one dared to stop him. The group of people entered the city with a roar, and then rushed towards the palace.
King Zhao was handling government affairs in the palace. When he saw Li Liang barging in, he asked him why he came back. Li Liang stepped forward quickly and said: "Your sister was too rude to me today. I have already killed her, and now I come to kill you!" King Zhao was shocked and said: "Are you trying to rebel?" As soon as he finished speaking, Li Liang Liang swung the sword in his hand, a cold light flashed, and King Zhao's head rolled to the ground. Seeing this sudden change, the guards came forward to encircle and suppress them. Li Liang led the crowd to kill the group of guards. His sergeants were all warriors who charged into the battle. The guards could not stop them. After a confrontation, the guards died and fled, and disappeared after a while. Li Liang then searched the harem with his sword and killed all the family, relatives and friends of King Zhao, leaving only the beauties and concubines. Then he went out of the palace to kill the princes and ministers. The prime minister on the left, Shao Sao, and many ministers were killed. The prime minister on the right, Zhang Er, and the general Chen Yu reported the incident. After hearing the news, they immediately ran away in panic and fled the city. Li Liang was very angry when he saw that he had not caught the two of them, so he asked the soldiers to guard the palace gate, occupied the palace, and raped King Zhao's wives and concubines one by one, enjoying themselves as much as he wanted.
Zhang Er and Chen Yu were able to escape because they had gathered many close friends in the court, so they received the report in time and escaped this disaster. The two of them ran to Xindu in the north of Handan City in one breath. After entering the city, they closed the four gates tightly. After they found a place to stay and saw that there were still thousands of soldiers in the city, they told the soldiers and the people in the city about Li Liang's murder. The soldiers and civilians were shocked. Then Zhang Er held a mourning ceremony for King Zhao and set up a mourning hall to call on the people to pay their respects. A few days later, more and more people joined him. The state of Zhao was severely damaged by this disaster. Zhang Er and Chen Yu were worried that Li Liang would come to attack the city, so they were helpless.
At this time, a veteran came to Zhang Er and said, "The country is in crisis, how could the prime minister forget someone?" Zhang Er asked who it was. The veteran replied: "That's the man who went to Yan State to rescue the king!" Zhang Er suddenly realized, clapped his forehead with his hand and said: "Oh, why did I forget him? But I don't know where he is?" The veteran said: "He must be alive, but it's hard to say whether he has escaped from Handan City." Zhang Er sent someone to write a notice and look for him everywhere. Sure enough, one day, Li Zuoche came to Xindu. Zhang Er was overjoyed when he heard that Li Zuoche had arrived and hurried to welcome him into the city. Li Zuoche came to the government office and met with Zhang Er. Zhang Er was very happy and asked him for advice: "Now Wang Li is about to leave Jingxing Pass, and the traitor Li Liang has killed the king again. I'm worried that he will become king. At present, the Zhao State is at the critical moment of subjugation. Mr. Is there any way to re-pacify the State of Zhao?" Li Zuoche replied without hesitation: "Li Liang rebelled and committed regicide. This was due to his wolf nature. I guess he was afraid of people's dissatisfaction and would never dare to become king immediately. Prime Minister We should strike first!" Zhang Er asked how to strike first. Li Zuochao: "First, establish the king of Zhao first and confirm the relationship between king and minister. If the prime minister wants to win the hearts of the people, he should quickly find the descendants of the original king of Zhao to become the king. You two will assist, so that the people will loyally support him. Then he will replace Zhao. The king takes revenge and attacks Li Liang, which means he has a good reputation. At that time, everyone will fight to the death, and your army will be invincible. Second, immediately send generals to Jingxing Pass to replace Li Liang's general Xue Yue to prevent He surrendered to Qin. Third, immediately send a special envoy to Yan to state our plight to King Yan and ask him to send troops to help. If the prime minister can do these three things, Zhao will regain stability."
Zhang Er was very happy after hearing Li Zuoche's plan, and immediately sent people to look for the descendants of King Zhao. He then made his son Zhang Ao a general, took the original Zhao King's seal and military talisman, and rushed to Jingxing Pass to replace Xue Yue overnight. He also sent a special envoy to Yan State to ask for help. A few days later, the soldiers found a man named Zhao Xie. After verification, they found that he was a descendant of the original King Zhao. Zhang Er was very happy and immediately made Zhao Xie the King of Zhao, made Xindu the capital, and then issued an edict to all parties. The people in Handan City hated Li Liang to death when they saw that Li Liang had killed his master, killed innocent people indiscriminately, and cheated on his harem, behaving like an animal. Now I heard that Zhang Er and Chen Yu supported Zhao Xie, the descendant of Zhao Wang, who had succeeded to the throne, so they all went to join him.
Li Liang has been enjoying himself in the palace these days, not caring about anything. One day, he heard that all the people had fled, so he sent his sergeants out to inquire. They learned that Zhao Xie had become king and that all the people had joined him, so he hurriedly reported to Li Liang. When Li Liang learned about this situation, he was frightened and worried, so he said to Zhang Qiang: "Now Zhang Er has established the king of Zhao first, and the people have all gone to join him. If their power becomes stronger, we will have no place to stand." Zhang Qiang said. : "It's better to attack them while their foothold is not stable and their foundation is not solid. If Zhao Xie and Zhang Er are killed, the people will be dispersed." Li Liang thought it was very feasible, so he gathered a troop of troops to kill Xindu.
Zhang Er saw the scolding at the top of the city and yelled: "Li Liang! You are a treacherous traitor who committed regicide. When the king was alive, I never treated you badly. Why did you do this unkind and unjust thing?" Li Liang also said: He cursed: "Your Majesty is just an ordinary person, and with you group of thieves following me around to sow discord, how can the Zhao Kingdom achieve hegemony? Let me ask you, why do you want to slander your Majesty and take away my military power?" It's not that you are unrighteous, how could I be ruthless? Now I want to kill you rats, so stop nagging and come out and die!" Zhang Er said angrily: "You, a wolf-like dog-like person, should have persuaded you in the first place. Your Majesty, kill you, you piece of shit! It is precisely because you did not get rid of this evil that the Zhao Kingdom is what it is today! Now that you have killed your Majesty and bloodbathed the royal family, you have committed a heinous crime. How can you still have the dignity to live in the world? Beast! Dog thief!" Li Liang was scolded and was speechless.
Seeing that Li Liang stopped talking, Zhang Er shouted to his sergeants: "Soldiers! You are all good subjects of Zhao State. There are your parents, wives, relatives and friends in the city. When King Zhao was alive, he never treated him badly. Everyone, why don't you distinguish right from wrong and follow the rebels to attack your relatives? If you still care about loyalty and righteousness, you should come back here and wait for the new king's reward!" After hearing this, the sergeants immediately asked People from the city came to seek refuge with King Zhao. Zhang Er hurriedly ordered the city gates to be opened to let everyone into the city. Li Liang was very angry, but he couldn't stop it. Suddenly there was a sound of golden drums, and Chen Yu led a group of troops out of the city, shouting: "Follow me to kill the rebels!" Li Liang was shocked, and just as he was about to go forward to fight, someone suddenly came to report: " General, there is news from Handan that the King of Yan has sent Yan General Zang Tu to lead an army to attack Handan City." Li Liang was shocked and hurriedly turned his horse around and fled. Seeing that Li Liang had escaped, Chen Yu led his sergeants He chased him from behind for a while. When Li Liang rushed back to Handan, he heard that the Yan army had retreated. He felt regretful and entered the city to defend it. An ancient poet sighed:
The most unpredictable person is the most difficult to guard against, so he openly killed the King of Zhao with a knife.
But public opinion was not convinced in the end, and he fled as soon as the battlefield drummed.
There is another poem praising Li Zuochao:
He stooped to avoid disaster and served as a cook. His ancestors passed down his talents.
First of all, Zhao Jun plans to fight against the rebellion, and there are three clever ways to resolve the danger.
