You have just punished Zhao Kuo here, and over there I will take almost all the ministers and people of the Zhao Kingdom to send Zhao Kuo back to the government. It is self-evident which one is right and which one is wrong.
This is the counterattack from Mr. Pingyuan, secret and direct. King Zhao, who was far away in the palace, was helpless about this. Even if King Zhao was present at the scene, he could not stop anything, let alone refute even one word.
"General of Changping, hero of the fight against Qin" is a short eight-character sentence. Is there even one word wrong?
If someone is dissatisfied, Mr. Pingyuan is very willing to argue with him in front of the people of Handan to clarify right and wrong.
Obviously none of the ministers behind him will be the one who refuses to accept it. Even all of them are the best among men. They immediately understood Lord Pingyuan's intention and felt extremely happy in their hearts. Immediately, they also imitated Lord Pingyuan, arranged his clothes, straightened his crowns, and said in unison: "Send off, General Changping, hero of the fight against Qin, Zhao Mafu Lord, Kuo, return to the mansion!"
With that said, hundreds of civil and military ministers all bowed deeply in the direction of Zhao Kuo and Mrs. Zhao.
This scene is as shocking as ever! Hundreds of officials paid homage, which was an honor only enjoyed by the king, but now they are saluting Zhao Kuo. Of course, you can interpret it as just respect for the hero, and it is just a temporary act, but who knows whether there will be any Someone is plotting, and this scene falls in the eyes of the people of Handan. Isn't it a sign?
But Mother Zhao obviously didn't think that much. Facing all the civil and military officials who came to pay tribute, Zhao's mother remained as graceful as ever. She stepped forward slightly, bowed slightly and said, "I would like to thank you all on behalf of the Zhao family and on behalf of my son Zhao Kuo!"
The meaning is also very clear: everyone's good intentions have been received by our Zhao family. It is not easy to understand you. It is not easy to support Zhao Kuo to this point. Everyone present will be my friend of Zhao family from now on.
Naturally, everyone didn't even dare to say it.
After the scene was over, Mother Zhao immediately looked at Zhao Kuo who was lying on the soft bed, walked quickly over, and slowly opened the thin cloth covering Zhao Kuo's back, and a piece of blood instantly appeared in front of Mother Zhao's eyes.
Mother Zhao, who was originally calm and calm, just took a brief look and her eyes turned red instantly. Although after being treated all the way, Zhao Kuo's back is no longer as scary as when he was just lifted down, but the crisscross traces left by the imperial staff, the minced meat that was too late to be processed, and the blood under the effect of the golden sore medicine Scab, everything looked so miserable and terrifying.
Mother Zhao covered her face with her sleeves, trying hard not to cry.
"Mother." Zhao Kuo was a little anxious. Mother Zhao was already old. If there was something wrong with her... Dangjie squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "Isn't my child okay? It's just hurt. It’s just a scratch on the skin. I survived the strong winds and waves, so this little injury won’t bother me.”
It has to be said that Zhao Kuo's method of comforting people is not clever at all. This is far from comforting my mother. It is clearly adding salt to my mother's wounds! Such a serious injury was just a small wind and a small wave, so how thrilling would the big wind and big waves be? Mrs. Zhao simply didn’t dare to imagine it anymore.
Fortunately, Lin Xiangru, who was on the side, also tried to persuade her in time: "Sister-in-law, it's all over! Everyone is waiting for you!"
Mrs. Zhao suddenly woke up, she had a more important task. For the sake of her son, she must be strong. Then he suppressed the sadness in his heart, covered Zhao Kuo with gauze, and in a choked voice, with a bit of pride, he slowly said: "Everyone in the Zhao family, please welcome my son. Lord Zhao Kuo, please return victoriously." Mansion!"
The elders who had been prepared for a long time immediately appeared beside Mrs. Zhao and shouted loudly to everyone, "Thank you, Ma Fujun, for fighting in Changping, killing 300,000 Qin soldiers, and avenging our feud for many years." !」
As soon as he finished speaking, he and all the servants behind him rushed to the ground to worship Zhao Kuo! And many passers-by also followed and bowed to Zhao Kuo.
"Second obeisance, thank you Ma Fujun for defeating the Qin army in Shangdang, for saving our Handan subjects from the disaster of war and the danger of massacre!" After saying this, all the servants bowed again, and more passers-by followed.
"Three bows, thank you Ma Fujun for taking the land of the two counties of Qin, expanding the fertile land of Zhao for thousands of miles, increasing the number of people in Zhao by hundreds of thousands, and spreading the prestige of Zhao to all directions!" Then another bow!
After three bows, except for the old lady, Lin Xiangru and Ping Pingjun Zhao Sheng, who were Zhao Kuo's elders,
Outside, there was no one standing straight on the huge street! Oh, there are a few others, the same ones who were holding their backs limply, but now they are proudly holding their backs straight.
The honor that King Zhao will not give you, mother will help you find it! The old lady thought proudly in her heart as she looked at the thank yous all over the street.
"The ceremony is over! Welcome you back to your home!" The elder shouted loudly! .
A few boys on the side put the prepared bamboo into the brazier. Soon the bamboo exploded in the brazier with a crackling sound. Yes, this was the first firecracker!
Amidst the sound of firecrackers, the people of Handan on the road outside the mansion bowed again, and then shouted: "Send the general back to the mansion!"
Immediately, several servants rushed out and carefully took the soft tip from the minister's hand, and Zhao's mother also came to the soft tip with the help of several maids!
Seeing Zhao Kuo's bloody back under the gauze, the old lady had already seen it once and was already prepared in her heart. But now she still felt distressed when she looked at it again. When she was distracted, she staggered. , finally Xuan didn’t faint, and said softly with a trembling voice: "My son has suffered! My son..."
"Slow down, slow down, be careful..." The old lady then whispered to the boys who were handing over.
Amidst the crackling of firecrackers, Zhao Kuo was slowly carried into the mansion through the central door by several young men.
Finally, this crucial task was handed over to the people in the Zhao family. The old lady bowed slightly to the people who were carrying the limp body and said, "Thank you from all of the Zhao family!"
When the few people who were still rubbing their shoulders and immersed in pain and happiness saw this, they didn't dare to accept the old lady's courtesy. They immediately bowed deeply and said hurriedly: "It is a great honor for us to be able to carry Mr. Ma Fu's bed! "
"Everything is busy today, and it is not convenient for me to entertain guests alone. After my son recovers from his injury in the future, I will have a banquet with wine and thank you for your help!" Mother Zhao bowed to everyone again.
Lin Xiangru naturally led everyone to return the favor, and then helped Zhao's mother send everyone away. Seeing that the busy street was almost gone, Mr. Pingyuan also took this opportunity to walk to Mrs. Zhao's side and whispered to Mrs. Zhao: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, don't be too sad. I have already told the executioner to do so. If your skin and flesh are injured, don’t strain your muscles and bones!”
"You look very serious, but the actual injuries are all on the surface. There is definitely no problem with the bones and internal organs inside. Just apply a good golden sore medicine, and within twenty days, you will be a lively man again!" Mr. Pingyuan continued in a low voice. said.
"Seriously!" the old lady asked in surprise.
