As a result, Yang Duanhe's frightened look made the generals' faces turn pale. He looked at Zhao Zheng and Zhao Gao in disbelief, but found that they didn't even give him a spare look, and immediately collapsed on the ground.
"It's not your fault. Get up. Get some clothes for the teacher quickly. He's injured and can't take the cold anymore." Zhao Zheng's tone was quite calm when he gave these instructions.
Seeing the situation, Zhao Gao quickly smoothed things over: "Zhao Gao didn't think carefully about this matter, which made the general worried."
In this way, Yang Duan and Fang Dameng woke up and quickly stood up and asked people to get their clothes.
Zhao Zheng helped Zhao Gao into the inner tent to change clothes before leaving a faint sentence: "You are watching, I will personally punish you." Yang Duanhe nodded hurriedly, suddenly remembered something, and quickly and respectfully held the dagger and jade seal in his hands and said : "The original thing is returned."
When he took the things, Zhao Zheng saw that he was panic-stricken. He waved his hands with a relaxed look and said, "I let them catch it on purpose. I just didn't expect it... hum... that's all. I don't blame you." After saying this, Yang Duanhe still said. Not daring to move, Zhao Zheng simply raised his hand to help him.
After changing his clothes and tidying up his appearance, he came out and saw that Yang Duanhe was still sitting uneasy. Zhao Zheng saw through his mind and could only calmly comfort him: "Don't worry, I'm not here to supervise your army. You Just keep it business as usual.”
"Then... if the king wants to go to the shogunate [1], the general will send someone to escort him..." Knowing Zhao Zheng's one-for-one temperament, Yang Duanhe breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not dare to be careless.
"You have heavy military duties, so you don't need to be distracted by me and the teacher. The two of us are penniless right now, but we are just looking for a place to stay. General Wang's side is the main battlefield, and I can't be disturbed. Since I was caught here, look It’s pretty good here, just for a few days.”
Will a noble king be penniless? And, come and make do? Zhao Zheng said it easily, but Yang Duanhe almost turned gray with worry.
I won't say that his subordinates are attacking him today. Now the two armies are fighting. The majestic king of Qin is in the camp of his deputy general who is responsible for leading the raid. He wants to make do with it for a few days. Where can he put it? Is there no precedent for this in any country? But when he saw the right master and the right master's teacher, Old God, he felt even more headache.
He couldn't grasp Zhao Zheng's thoughts at all, so he hesitated and said: "Then in this name..." He thought that when he came to the army as Zhao Zheng, whatever identity he arranged would not be compatible, so he did not dare to speak casually. I was so worried that I had no choice but to wait for him to show me.
Fortunately, Zhao Zheng didn't embarrass him. He gave Zhao Gao a look and asked him to tell him clearly. Zhao Gao then said warmly: "Our identity, the general, just needs to be concealed on Li Mu. When the battle begins and the camp location no longer needs to be hidden, let people take the initiative to 'discover' it." If you instigate rebellion, we will surrender to Qin."
"But it's empty talk, and Zhao Jun's guards may not believe it." Yang Duanhe said doubtfully.
Zhao Gao shook his head: "The garrison guard who is stationed this time is not Zhao Wangqian's confidant. He is the garrison to supervise the military affairs. Zhao Wangqian was worried and sent another special envoy to keep an eye on it. According to the news, the special envoy has been informed and wants to come. Much more sensitive than the Guardian Guards."
This is a plan to trap people to death!
Yang Duanhe looked at Zhao Gao, who was in poor spirits and looked weak, and suddenly felt a chill on his back. Because of this, he finally knew that before Zhao Gao was seriously injured and fell into coma, he asked General Wang to send envoys several times to the Zhao army shogunate to persuade him to surrender. What are you thinking about?
At that time, he heard that General Wang really sent someone to persuade him, and he thought that Li Mu was cold and tough, how could he listen to him? Didn't the old general just follow him and make fun of him? Baba sent envoys here. If Li Mu is evil, regardless of the agreement of "not to kill the envoys when the two armies are fighting", wouldn't it be in vain to lose a few eloquent soldiers?
Who would have thought that Li Mu's temperament and conduct were really controlled by Zhao Gao. Li Mu was a gentleman. Even though he was extremely annoyed, he did not do anything dirty. The people sent here came back safe and sound every time. But at that time, he couldn't help but ask: Li Mu couldn't listen, so what's the use of persuading him to surrender?
Only then did he realize that persuading him to surrender was actually a pretense!
In the palace of King Zhao.
"The special envoy has a secret report to send to my king." The visitor who came to report could still see through the layers of ice curtains as thin as cicada wings that two naked people were intercourse on the nanmu couch paved with thin tiles. Tangled together, he lowered his head knowingly after just one glance, waiting for instructions from the person in the tent.
However, the emissary's followers waited for a long time, and there was no other reaction except the sound of men's heavy breathing and women's soft moans coming from the tent from time to time.
After another long while, after hearing a long sigh and a rustling sound, the man in the tent finally opened the curtain.
Before his feet landed, a maid with a slender waist and elegant neck squatted down, holding her shoes in her palms, waiting for him to land. After he was properly dressed and stood up, he was put on a middle coat made of Chenliu flower brocade to roughly cover his body.
"Why are you, old man, here?" Zhao Wangqian was in a bad mood when he saw the emissary's shriveled face, so he asked very displeasedly.
The secret envoy bowed and presented the white silk in his hand: "I have a special letter for my king."
Zhao Wangqian looked at the white color and found it unpleasant. He retracted his outstretched hand and put it behind his back. His back, which had not been straight before, straightened up due to this action. He finally looked a bit like a king. He said angrily: "Next time, tell them to change the color to a more lively one. The widow is not dead yet, so there is no need for them to come to announce the funeral."
"Death" and "mourning" are the most taboo things in this palace. Unfortunately, it is the master of this palace who speaks freely. The secret envoy was so frightened that he was sweating and did not dare to refute at all: "No."
"I feel dizzy after reading the words. Go and hand it to Madam and let her read it." Zhao Wangqian stood for a while and felt a little weak. He rubbed his brows, then turned back, kicked off his shoes, and hurriedly opened his waist. He took off the lace between his legs and lay back on the couch.
The emissary was not qualified to come forward, so he could only hand the things to the beautiful maid with a slim waist, and she would pass them to the beauty on the couch.
Zhao Wangqian took the beauty on the couch, who had not yet had time to put on her clothes, in his arms and caressed her, and then said to her: "If you read the beauty in a bad way, I will punish you."
"Your Majesty..." The oriole's melodious, soft and boneless beauty's voice caused the evil fire to run wildly in King Zhao's lower abdomen. The beauty chuckled lightly, then picked up the silk and began to read softly.
Unexpectedly, the more he heard, the evil fire in Zhao Wangqian's body became heavier. It only moved from the lower abdomen to the chest, where it burned painfully: "This is unreasonable, Li Mu really has different intentions!"
"Why should your Majesty be angry over a reckless man? It's not worth it." When the beauty's catkin caressed his chest, gently stroking it gently, the fire in Zhao Wangqian's chest was finally extinguished a little, and his expression became a little brighter. I heard him say in a deep voice: "Call Guo Kai and the others."
When Guo Kaixin arrived in a hurry, Zhao Wangqian was already fully dressed and lying on a soft couch waiting for him.
Everyone discussed for half a day and announced the idea of changing generals at the court meeting the next day.
Unexpectedly, Guo Kai's proposal aroused opposition from some people as soon as it came out. At present, most people in the court have surrendered to Zhao Wangqian and have no objection, but it is inevitable that there are still some people who are indifferent.
Among them, Zuo Shiji Tan of Taishi Prefecture had the most intense reaction.
Seeing Ji Tan keep asking rudely, "The treacherous officials are in power! Open your eyes and see, haven't you learned enough lessons from changing generals on the spot in the Changping Battle?" Zhao Wangqian was furious and had him dismissed from his position as Zuo Shi. They were about to expel him from the palace of government, but unexpectedly he wanted to fight with death. Fortunately, the guards in the palace noticed him in time and stopped him, thus avoiding an ominous bloody disaster in the palace.
However, such a fuss over the situation made both the monarch and his ministers look bad, so the proposal to change generals had to be shelved for the time being.
At the same time, the left army of Qin was in the big tent of the military camp.
Yang Duanhe just realized that General Zhao Gaotuo's sending someone to persuade him to surrender was a pretense! His original intention should be to alienate people under the pretext of persuading them to surrender.
In fact, he didn't know the details of persuading surrender before, so he never saw through Zhao Gao's intention.
At that time, Zhao Gao deliberately used his time to persuade Zhao Wangqian's close envoy to persuade him. After persuading him to leave the account, he pretended to whisper in private, and also said something about how well Li Mu treated him, and 'accidentally' let the envoy There was news over there, so now the secret report has been sent to Zhao Wangqian, and there has been such a fuss.
However, with Zhao Gao's delicate mind and cautious person, he was not completely reassured by this arrangement. Since Zhao Wangqian was determined to move Li Mu just by relying on the reason of expediting the letter, and he might not be able to explain it, Zhao Gao now planned to give Zhao Wangqian another reason for nothing: some high-ranking officials in the Zhao army were incited to rebel, and it is said that they were still Li Mu's people.
Now, the whole country of Zhao is in panic because of the earthquake. Houses collapsed in several places, but due to the war between Qin and Zhao, the people suffered and no one sent out troops to rescue them.
What's more, the cost of raising troops was huge and the treasury was empty. This debt could only be borne by the people of Zhao State. Not to mention the increase in taxes, which made the victims even worse. Even the counties that were not affected by the disaster began to be unable to bear it.
However, at this time, instead of ordering the government's treasury and official warehouses to be opened to help the victims, King Zhao Qian became more and more indulgent, and even brought his male favorites to the palace unscrupulously.
If that's all, that's it. Who knows what's more, in order to please the beauty, he actually issued an edict to build a moon-viewing platform that is even grander than the Tiantian Platform.
At this time, in some seriously affected places in Shi County, people had already seen the tragic situation of exchanging their children for food. Not to mention the common people who experienced it personally, even the high-ranking nobles huddled in Handan felt the undercurrent surging in all directions.
There are rumors everywhere, and they are all spread and hyped up by high-level officials, and various conspiracy theories emerge one after another. At this moment, as long as Yang Duan and the unified army are talking about it, Zhang Jing will help spread the news of the lifting of the ban. Once it is spread, it will easily cause an uproar in such an environment.
The people may not believe that Li Mu wants to rebel, but those led by Zhao Wangqian are mostly cunning and suspicious, and it is easy to take him seriously. They also knew that Li Mu was deeply popular among the people, and they were afraid that if he supported his troops and incited people to rebel, his position would be threatened. So they don't know how to bet, and they don't dare to bet. They will definitely choose to change their generals at the last minute.
Of course, Yang Duanhe also knew something. He knew that the death of Gongzi Jia was also the work of Zhao Gao.
Although he didn't know much about how to operate it.
