"After returning to Handan, let's go to Lin Shangqing's mansion first." Zhao Kuo said lightly.
Mr. Pingyuan looked at Zhao Kuo who looked calm, but he himself looked confused? Why are you still in contact with Lin Shangqing? It shouldn’t be! Don't talk about you, even your father Lin Xiangru has no personal relationship, and when you were nominated to join the party, Lin Shangqing was ill all the time, otherwise you might not be able to make the trip.
"Could it be General Lian Po?" Lord Pingyuan thought to himself, "That's not right! General Lian Po has been in the military camp since the expedition and has never returned to Handan. How can he discuss the current matter with Lin Xiangru? Moreover, let yourself Why are you going to Lin Shangqing's house? Zhao Kuo knows that I have taken over Lin Shangqing's political resources? It shouldn't be..."
When he was puzzled, a name suddenly broke into Pingyuan Jun's mind - Zhao Yu.
right! As Lin Shangqing's favorite disciple and an important official in the court, he suddenly came to Shangdang County. It was not in line with common sense to be the governor of Shangdang County.
What's more, after Pingyang Jun and others came to Shangdang and released the Qin army, the struggle between the pro-Qin faction and the anti-Qin faction was almost on the table. Zhao Yu was not in Handan to guard his home, but he came to the land of Shangdang, leaving only Lin Xiangru at home who could hardly go to court to discuss matters. Wasn't this an obvious opportunity for the pro-Qin faction? Something is very wrong, okay.
The only explanation is that Lin Shangqing already had a plan, a plan that came into being only after the conflict completely broke out, and a plan that he had not yet had time to tell himself.
After Zhao Yu came to Shangdang, he did not go to Guanglang City to take up his post as soon as possible. Instead, he waited for several days in Jiepailing to meet Zhao Kuo, not only to visit the dock to carry out future work, but more importantly. The purpose is to convey Lin Shangqing's intentions to Zhao Kuo and reach an agreement with him.
Judging from the fact that Zhao Kuo personally saw off Zhao Yu when he left, and the words Zhao Kuo just told him to go to Lin Shangqing's mansion, it is obvious that the two have reached an agreement.
With that said, everything seems to make sense. However, Mr. Pingyuan could not imagine what the agreement between the two was like: Does Lin Shangqing have other ways to turn the tide? Forced into the palace? Obviously that's not right, otherwise Zhao Yu wouldn't be allowed to go to Shangdang?
Although Lord Pingyuan couldn't think of how Lin Xiangru would solve the matter for a while, it was obvious that Lord Pingyuan still had absolute faith in Lin Shangqing, who was the one who truly dedicated everything to the State of Zhao.
Then a question flashed into Mr. Pingyuan's mind: Will his actions just now affect the resolution reached by the two?
But soon, this issue was pressed by Mr. Pingyuan himself. The reason was very simple. When he just gave the order, it was in front of Zhao Kuo. From his starting point, he naturally wanted to express something in front of Zhao Kuo. , in order to win Zhao Kuo's trust. But now it seems that Zhao Kuo did not say anything to stop it, and also explained from the side that his actions should be within Lin Shangqing's expectation, at least it will not affect their decision.
As for how things will develop in the end, Pingyuan Jun looked at Zhao Kuo, whose eyes were slightly closed, and knew in his heart that maybe he could only go to Handan to find Lin Shangqing to find out.
After figuring it out, Mr. Pingyuan immediately followed Zhao Kuo, closed his eyes slightly, and fell asleep.
...
In the early autumn of Zhao State, the flowers have fallen, and the roadside should be full of golden wheat fields. Most of them have become barren due to lack of cultivation, and weeds are spreading wantonly among them, competing for every ounce of nutrients in the ground. Taking advantage of the still warm autumn weather, The weather is relaxing to its fullest.
In the not too cramped carriage, Zhao Kuo leaned on the fence and quietly watched the plants and trees in front of him, slowly passing by.
Warring States period! It has been several months since I came to the Warring States Period. From the beginning, I was blocked by the fierce public opinion and couldn't get out. I finally got out, and I rushed to the Changping battlefield with reinforcements. I really didn't take a good look at this place. The Chinese scenery from the Warring States Period two thousand years ago.
I vaguely remember that I was riding a horse and heading east. The vegetation along the way was in full bloom. The summer weather was not over yet, and the heat was in full swing. Even though the wind kept blowing into my clothes and armor while galloping, it still couldn't dry my back. of sweat. Of course, maybe it was the situation that day that made me so anxious that I was sweating so much.
Now that I have returned, the Qin army has retreated, and Bai Qi has
When he committed suicide, he was extremely happy, but he could only enjoy the autumn scenery in this prison car.
The sun was just right, and in the clear blue sky, eagles would circle by from time to time, and then pierce into the forest, startling a group of flying birds. With a few mournful cries, a few small birds fell into the eagle's mouth. Knowing the chill of autumn, all things begin to wither.
And the sun in the sky is far from as warm as in summer, but it has a more warm feeling. But after all, the autumn tiger is still there, and there is still sweat on his body. Fortunately, the prison car was moving quite fast, and coupled with the breeze in the mountains, all the sweat on his body was quickly dried.
The closer it gets to Handan, the more densely populated it becomes. Although many fields are still abandoned, more farmers appear in the fields. It seems that the smell of a bumper harvest can already be smelled in the dry air. It is that the crops are seizing the time to make the final accumulation.
Going further north, passing through the old pass, and further on is the territory of Handan County. A hundred-mile stone Great Wall defense line not only prevented the Qin army's attack, but also divided the world into two poles. The cold air from the north was blocked by the mountains, turned around here, and then blew toward the north.
As soon as we left the hometown, the autumn day that was warm just now became depressed and cold before our eyes. The forest that was originally green was now dry and yellow. Even the air gradually loses the warmth of autumn and becomes more chilled by winter.
The prison car went all the way north, and further north, the last yellowed leaf finally could not withstand the invasion of the cold. With the cold wind, it walked reluctantly, spiraled and slowly fell, landing on the nourishing His whole life was buried under the tree trunks and dust brought up by passing carriages!
Looking at the falling leaves, Zhao Kuo had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
After traveling through time, Zhao Kuo finally chose the most difficult path. Whether it was resisting Qin, winning the Battle of Changping, or trapping Zhao and preparing for the uprising, Zhao Kuo knew that there was an easier way for him. Walk. And the path he chose was not only difficult, but also full of dangers.
But Zhao Kuo had no regrets, just like those martyrs.
"Born here, raised here, it is natural to die here and be buried here. It can be turned into nutrients to nourish the old roots and new leaves in the coming year!" Zhao Kuo murmured: "If you have a breath, just click on it. A lamp. Perhaps this is the romance of the descendants of China."
