Zhao Yong smelled the fragrance in his nose, and his mind suddenly became clearer.
"I also know that if we join forces to attack Qin, we, the State of Zhao, will not get much benefit. But the ministers of our State of Zhao have been afraid of Qin for a long time, and now we have a good opportunity. I am afraid that they are not willing to give up this opportunity to attack Qin. .
Moreover, this time the Prime Minister, our State of Zhao can also form an alliance with Wei and Yan to divert the attention of the two countries. "Zhao Yong said quietly.
After hearing this, Fei Yi immediately advised with earnest words: "As you know, the countries in the Central Plains have always united to attack Qin, and the princes all have ulterior motives and each has his own agenda.
During the reign of the late emperor, Su Qin was prime minister of Zhao and united the five kingdoms to attack Qin. As a result, the army fell apart in front of Hangu Pass, which humiliated our country Zhao and wasted a lot of national power. I can still remember it vividly. "
"I understand Master Fei's words from the bottom of his heart, but I predict that Zhao and Qin will not be able to fight." Zhao Yong explained to Fei Yi.
Fei Yi was stunned. He didn't understand the meaning of his king's words.
"I have been rewarded. The Wei State secretly invited Zhongshan Jun to participate in the Prime Minister's meeting. However, the Wei envoy did not inform me during the court meeting. What did he want to do?" Zhao Yong explained.
Fei Yi was startled and asked: "Is the king's information accurate?"
If it is true as Zhao Yong said, then this is Wei's plan to kill two birds with one stone.
The State of Zhao is now looming over the State of Wei. If Wei Ying wants to continue to be the leader of the Three Jins, he can only use Zhongshan to contain the State of Zhao.
Zhao Yong pointed to Luo Coral next to him and replied: "Miss Luo's men and horses found out through the investigation. It should be fine."
Fei Yi nodded in understanding.
"I have something to say, but I don't know whether to say it or not."
"But it doesn't matter." Zhao Yong waved his hand and drank another glass of sake.
Fei Yi turned his head to look at Luo Hualou and said slowly: "I heard that Sima Cuo, the right concubine of the Qin State, is Miss Luo's fellow senior brother. I don't know if that is true or not?"
His meaning has been very clear. I already know that you, the Mo family, are hedging their bets.
Luo Coral did not avoid the question, and tugged on the hem of her skirt that was held down by Zhao Yong.
She looked directly at Fei Yi and said: "It is true that as Dr. Fei Yi said, Sima Cuo is indeed my senior brother. However, everyone has his own ambitions. Our Mohist family does not stipulate that disciples cannot serve in two countries. I am serving in Zhao State. Hou, naturally you won’t do such half-hearted things.”
Her words made it very clear. Sima Cuo thought that Qin had a future, and I thought that Zhao had a future.
"Master Fatty, you don't need to worry too much." Zhao Yong said something to ease the atmosphere.
He naturally knew that what Fei Yi did was right. Using Feiyi to beat Luo Coral was exactly what he wanted to see.
Fei Yi arched his hands towards Zhao Yong to show his understanding. But he continued: "Let me remind Miss Luo that if you step on the same boat, you will be stable, but if you step on two boats separately, you will fall off."
Luo Coral's expression did not change, and she said clearly: "I understand."
Fei Yi stopped talking after hearing this.
He is well aware of the rules of today's world: "Talents are used by those who value themselves, and scholars die for those who know themselves." Whether it is Taoism, Mohism, Confucianism or Legalism, the position is never fixed.
Gongsun Yan, Su Qin, and Zhang Yi were all descended from Mr. Qingxi, but now they serve in three countries.
If Zhao Guo can get help from the Mo family, it will be a good thing.
Although Mohism advocated the idea of "loving each other and benefiting each other", it does not apply to today's wars of mergers and hegemony among countries. But now it seems that the Mohist intelligence technique is also unique.
Zhao Yongzheng straightened his body and asked Fei Yi: "What do you mean, my country, Zhao, pretends not to know about this matter. If Zhongshan is king, my country, Zhao, will tear up the alliance. There is no need to follow other countries to attack Qin."
Fei Yi glanced at Luo Hualou, and then said: "The king must not do this. If our country Zhao breaks the contract, the eyes of Wei, Yan and other countries will be on our country Zhao. This is exactly what the king of Wei wants to see. "
"Wei and Yan are weak, how dare they join forces to attack Zhao?" Zhao Yong replied disdainfully.
Zhao Yong's original idea was to break the contract. If you want to fight, you can fight. I, the State of Zhao, will not follow and sacrifice people.
The rabbit bites people when it is in a hurry, not to mention the Qin State who is fighting against the odds.
In Zhao Yong's memory, Zhao was always the first to rush forward and serve as cannon fodder when jointly attacking Qin. I won’t do it this time.
In his opinion, agreeing with the Prime Minister was just a concession to Zhao's courtiers for the reform of the foreign service. Zhao Yong never paid attention to Wei's petty calculations.
Fei Yi advised: "I feel that there is no need to confront other countries tit for tat. This is actually a good thing for our country, Zhao."
"Oh? What do Master Fatty say?" Zhao Yong asked doubtfully.
He knew that Zhongshan becoming king would have no real harm to his Zhao country. It was just a matter of face.
But in terms of benefits, Zhao Yong really doesn't know what benefits there are.
Fei Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth and explained slowly: "The monarch does not know how Zhongshan, a mere small country, can withstand the strong political and military pressure surrounded by Yan and Zhao. There are many ancestors of the two generations of Zhongshan. Your great achievements in governance, but the most important thing is the strong support of the Qi State behind it."
Zhao Yong nodded after hearing this. As the king of a country, he naturally knew the backing of his old enemy. "What good does this do to my country, Zhao?"
Fei Yi continued: "The king knows that Qi is a country that advocates etiquette, and respecting Confucianism and Taoism has been engraved in its bones. The king of Qi often regards himself as the overlord. If he learns that his vassal country is going to be king, the king will feel What will King Qi think?"
Zhao Yong understood instantly and nodded clearly. Hearing what Fei Yi said, Zhao Yong was suddenly worried that Zhongshan would give up being king because of fear of Qi.
Zhao Yong then asked: "What if the Lord of Zhongshan cannot withstand the pressure of King Qi and gives up the invitation of King Wei of Wei."
How could he not understand that this was a great opportunity to weaken Zhongshan State? If he could use this to drive a wedge between Qi State and Zhongshan, Zhongshan would definitely fall into a state of isolation. If something can be done, it will not only be able to withstand Zhao's thousands of troops.
At this time, Luo Huanhuan beside him smiled brightly, turned to Zhao Yong and slowly explained: "The monarch does not know something. Although the Zhongshan Kingdom was influenced by the Qi Kingdom and respected Confucianism and Taoism, the Zhongshan Lord is not an easy man. In his generation, the Lord of Zhongshan was arrogant and often thought of himself as Yao and Shun. He had long been vaguely dissatisfied with Qi State's frequent interference in the affairs of Zhongshan State.
It seems that this time he will find it difficult to resist the temptation of becoming king. "Luo Coral's name for Zhao Yong changed in his words.
"Just like Miss Luo said." Fei Yi couldn't help but praise her.
Luo Coral stood up and bowed politely: "I am not worthy of a doctor's praise."
Zhao Yong was stunned. If it was true as the two said, then this matter would really be of great benefit to Zhao State.
I'm afraid Wei Ying didn't expect that his damn pride would help others once again.
In the end, Gongsun Yan's plan to win the first place benefited the most from Zhao.
