In the tent, the lights are brightly lit.
Li Mu sat on the main seat, staring at the letter on the table, silent, because the content involved too much, especially the business involving war horses and fine iron. Once such things were spread, let alone Li Mu, anyone involved in this matter will be prosecuted for treason.
For any country, war horses, fine iron and other materials are strategic resources. How can they be traded with other countries at will?
Unless Zhao Wangyan approves, after all, in the entire Zhao country, he is the only one qualified to decide on this business.
'According to what is stated in the letter, the king should agree'
Li Mu's eyes flashed slightly. Using 10,000 war horses to win over South Korea would be a good deal for the Zhao State. As for whether South Korea would go back on its promise like the Zhao State, there is no need to think about this matter. Once South Korea's national power increases, , it will inevitably become a thorn in Qin's side.
South Korea's location sealed its fate.
The Qin State is currently the strongest. If it wants to destroy the six countries and unify the world, the first country it needs to destroy is South Korea, and the next step is Zhao and Wei.
Any general who knows a little bit about military affairs can see through this.
However, compared to this business, Li Mu was more concerned about Zhao Jia's purpose and what he planned all this for.
Unwilling to be deposed as the crown prince, are you trying to regain the crown prince's position?
Or maybe.
There are hidden things about this matter that he doesn't know about. For example, Zhao Jia defected to the Qin State. This transaction was just a cover, and the Qin State wanted to use this to cause trouble...
For a while.
Li Mu's face was uncertain, and he was a little hard to make a decision. He didn't dare to agree casually to such a big matter before he understood it clearly.
Compared with Li Mu's vacillation, Yang Biao on the side touched his chin covered with stubble, marveled, and chuckled: "It seems that the young master has grown a lot after this round of events, and he actually knows how to plan state affairs." Yes, brother, in my opinion, this matter can be agreed to. It is nothing more than 10,000 war horses. Just give it to us. It’s not like we can’t afford it. We might as well test the young master’s attitude.
If the young master really wants to compete for the crown prince's position, how can we not help him? "
Compared with Gongzi Jia, the current Prince Qian of Zhao seems to be too useless. He indulges in women all day long, just like Zhao Wangyan when he was young, or even worse.
Even if he just heard some rumors, Yang Biao didn't have any good impression of him.
By contrast.
Zhao Jia, the eldest son with pure blood, was even more loved by the officials.
However, Zhao Wangyan is a stick. The more the ministers disagree, the more he wants to do it... The king is so willful, what can the people below do?
"When it comes to the crown prince, don't talk nonsense."
Li Mu frowned and said extremely calmly.
Before the truth is clear, he will not take a position rashly, not to mention Zhao Jia's current attitude is unclear, and he will not take risks.
"Brother, you don't really want to see that prostitute's son sitting on the king's throne, do you?"
When Yang Biao heard this, he retorted directly. He had a rough temper and spoke naturally and straightforwardly. How could he be afraid of Zhao Qian's status and dare not speak just because he was the prince?
Besides, what he said was the truth. 33
Among the ministers of Zhao State, several people wanted to see this scene.
Li Mu was silent for a while, looked at Yang Biao, and said slowly: "Let's not talk about this matter for the time being. This business involves Zhao and Han. We must ask the king about his intentions. Secondly, Gongzi Jia also needs to meet with someone. See...I plan to go to South Korea myself!"
He pondered for a moment and then made a decision in his heart.
The matter was so important that Li Mu didn't dare to agree to it rashly based on just a letter. The most important thing was that he had no idea until he understood Zhao Jia's purpose.
Moreover, the letter clearly stated Zhao Jia's attitude that the other party did not want this matter to have anything to do with him.
To put it simply.
Zhao Jia hoped that Li Mu could hide him, even Zhao Wangyan.
Yang Biao agreed without thinking: "Okay, there won't be any war in the near future. You might as well go see the young master."
In his opinion, this is a good opportunity to connect emotionally. If Zhao Jiazhen is interested in the throne, this can be regarded as an opportunity.
Think of this.
He continued without hesitation: "If you have the chance, you might as well bring the young master back!"
Li Mu fell silent and did not speak.
Zhao Jia was not brought back just because he wanted to. The other party was sent to Qin State by Zhao Wangyan as a hostage. How could he take it back rashly? This matter ultimately depends on Zhao Wangyan's attitude. After all, in Zhao State, Zhao Wangyan is everyone's god.
These days, the supremacy of royal power is never just talk.
…
…
The next day.
Zhao Jiazheng, who had nothing to do, was playing chess with Yan Lingji. The two used Go as a backgammon, and they quickly made moves. The game lasted for several minutes, and they had a great time. However, soon, Yan Lingji It's a bit impatient to lose, even if it's just a small game, but no one likes to lose all the time.
Yan Lingji bit her moist lips, her dreamlike eyes stared at Zhao Jia aggrievedly, releasing her invisible charm, and said sweetly: "Young master, don't you know how to give in to others?"
"I've already asked you to regret your move, how else do you want me to give in?"
Zhao Jia asked with a smile on her face, looking at the stunning female seductress in front of her.
"Let me take two at once!"
Yan Lingji blinked her eyes, with a bit of quirky playfulness, she pinched two white stones and dropped them.
Zhao Jia shook his head, raised his hand to hold Yan Lingji's wrist, and said helplessly: "You are breaking the rules of the game. If so, how can we play this chess game?"
"Who makes the young master so aggressive all the time?"
Yan Lingji curled her lips and said angrily. She was almost autistic after losing. She always felt that the chessboard was full of routines. The rules were obviously very simple, but she just couldn't beat the opponent. Maybe this was the advantage of the Central Plains people. They are a group of scheming BOYs.
Although she didn't want to admit it, when it came to brains, the Baiyue people were indeed inferior to the Central Plains people.
People in the Central Plains are so bad!
If the people from Baiyue are bad on the surface, then the people from the Central Plains are bad behind the scenes, but they still show concern for you on the surface.
'Is this aggressive? Women are really unreasonable when they are unreasonable'
Zhao Jia let go of Yan Lingji's wrist and said softly: "It's just a game. If you don't want to play this kind of game, we can change the gameplay."
"Any other kind of slave can't play with the master."
Yan Lingji rolled her eyes at Zhao Jia and hummed softly.
'That's not necessarily true, you just haven't discovered your own characteristics'
Zhao Jia looked at the extremely attractive beauty in front of him and muttered in his heart. At the same time, he put down the chess piece in his hand and said with a smile: "Since you don't want to play anymore, let's call it a day."
At this moment, Hua Ruo's voice came from outside the door.
"Sir, someone is coming to the palace."
"?!"
Zhao Jia was stunned when he heard this. In the past few days, the palace has been very quiet. Honglian didn't come to trouble him. She seemed to be leaving him alone. As for Han Wangan, he would not chat with him for nothing.
Could it be her?
Some people died, but not completely...
