Spring and Autumn I Am King

"Zhi Bo promises that if your elder sister Ji Ying can marry the Zhi clan, the Zhao clan will be able to use the in-laws as a bond and gain the Zhi clan's friendship..."

Until the eve of the wedding on the second day, Zhao Wuxi's ear still rang these words. 【No popup window..】

Last night, Zhao Yang summoned the core retainers around him and held a temporary meeting in the main hall.

Zhao Yang sat in a high position, next to Zhao Wuxi, and the retainers sat on the left and right sides.

Among them are Sima You, who is sitting in a dangerous position, Fu Sou, who is old but still has shrewd eyes, Yang Hu, who has a mask on his face and can't see his expression, Yang Yin, who is polite and gentle, and Zheng Long, who is dressed in black and wearing black armor... …

The silk book sent by Zhisong people is passed in their hands, and everyone can interpret different meanings from it. They each had their own thoughts, Zhao Yang sat quietly and listened intently, while Zhao Wuxi's face was sinking like water, his eyes swept across the faces of the retainers from time to time, or looked at his father's face.

"This is blackmail, this is blackmail!" You Wuzheng was usually calm, but after reading it today, he was the first to stand up to express his objection.

You Wuzheng was the master who taught Zhao Wuxi how to form an army, and his heart always favored this little gentleman who knew soldiers. What's more, Zhao Wuxi will become Zhao Yang's successor, which has been generally accepted by the core retainers. It is said that the eldest son Bo Lu has followed the example of Han Wuji of the year, saying that he has low morals and no talent, and took the initiative to resign from Zhao Yang's position as the heir, and recommended Zhao Wuxi, the younger brother of Tianzong Wizards.

Now that this matter has only been settled, the Zhishi has come to kick it? In his opinion, this silk book should be burned directly, and he categorically rejects Zhishi's conditions!

Wufu's idea is as simple as that, if you want to fight, you will fight, if you want him to bow his head, there is no way!

"But the Zhao clan really needs the friendship of the Zhi clan." Yang Hu's gruff voice sounded cold and ruthless. He analyzed the problem purely from the point of view of interests.

"The accumulation of hatred is too deep, and there will be a battle between the Zhao family and Fan and Bank of China. If you only count the two Zhaos, the power is similar to that of Fan and Bank of China, but Dong Zhao still has Qi, Wei, and Zheng constraints, even if it is Song Dynasty. The state will contain Zheng, and the state of Cao will contain Wei. It is necessary to keep troops to defend the state of Qi, and at most 15,000 people can be invested in the state of Jin. The center of gravity of Western Zhao is Jinyang, and it is natural to sweep the territories of Fan and Zhongxing to the west of Taihang. Yes, but it is not easy for the soldiers to attack Chaoge and Dongyang across the Taihang Mountains, so once the war begins, the outcome will probably be between five and five..."

"If you add the Han sect who controlled many dangerous places in Taihang, the outcome will be ****, and if you move the Wei sect, the outcome will be 73! This is the most ideal situation. According to the plan, let the The Crown Prince of Wei State and Handan Wu denounced Fan and Bank of China for treason, and then gathered the power of the three families of Zhao, Wei, and Han to press the king to admit it, and ordered a crusade, so that the Zhao family could remain invincible!"

"But the premise is that we must try to keep the Zhi family neutral!"

You Wuzheng expressed his objection: "Although Zhishi is Zhengqing, it is not powerful enough to control the three armies, and it is unequivocal to say that Yangzi's words are too exaggerated!"

"Otherwise, the power of the Zhi clan should not be underestimated. Including Qiuyou, the Zhi clan has 11 counties, nearly 30,000 soldiers, and guards the area in the east of Jinyang. Although the position of Zhengqing is far less powerful than before, but After all, the Zhi clan occupies the righteousness of etiquette and law. Moreover, it also wraps up the monarch and controls the people of the country. If it falls to Fan and Zhongxing in a fit of anger, the Zhao clan's advantage will be completely lost!"

Zheng Long, the head of the black-clothed guards, couldn't help but said: "Isn't there still two Wei and Han families? Sanqing vs Sanqing, I think it's similar!"

After experiencing the failure in the state of Lu. Yang Hu no longer has trust in the relationship between people, and only has power in his heart, he said disapprovingly: "Let's not mention Han, Wei and Zhao are not close enough to share weal and woe, I heard that the gentleman He made an appointment with Wei's Ziju as a brother, although he had filth with Zhiyao, but it did not affect the closeness between Wei and Zhi. Verbal promises are not credible. At that time, once the Weis sit and watch the success or failure, Zhao and Han will Encircled by the monarch, Zhi, Fan, and Bank of China, the future is in danger!"

You Wuzheng sneered: "So Yangzi thinks that the Zhao clan should agree to the Zhi clan's proposal. Could it be that with the current Zhao clan's strength, the lord has defeated the might of Qi, and the young gentleman has conquered the power of Sishang, can he still only be obedient? Zhibo only needs an empty promise to make the Zhao family give up the usual family policy and then send the hostages obediently?" He was very angry, and only spit on Yanghu's face.

"At least you can't refuse, and put the Zhi family on the opposite side of the Zhao family." Yang Hu also refused to let the size.

What followed was a constant quarrel until late into the night. Every retainer has the right to speak, and they also seize the opportunity and do their best...

"Zhibo's actions are false and true, and it is difficult to judge the authenticity. Are the conditions this time true or false?" In the end, Zhao Yang knocked on the case a few times, interrupted the dispute, and turned his attention to the deep understanding of Zhibo. On the old Fu Soo, he was still calm and had the demeanor of a gentleman. This is Zhao Yang's growth over the years.

Fu Sou stood up tremblingly and said, "From the old minister's point of view, Zhibo may really have the heart of neutrality, and let the Zhishi protect himself in this chaos."

"Why?" This was Zhao Wuxi's question. This was the first time he had spoken since the meeting. He knew when to listen carefully, which was quite fatherly.

"Isn't Zhibo's request too much?" He gritted his teeth, no matter the first or the second, he had already broken through his bottom line.

Fu Sou said: "Because it's too much, it's more like the truth. If Zhibo just wanted to paralyze the Zhao family, he could make some non-painful requests, but from this silk book, he really is a gentleman returning to Jin. The fear is quite deep. Based on what the old minister knows about Zhibo, he is probably afraid that Fan and Bank of China will be destroyed. After the East, West, Zhao and Zhao reunite, the internal balance of the Jin state will be completely broken. At that time, even if the Zhi clan wants to rely on the Marquis of Jin and win over Wei It is also impossible for Shi and Zhao to confront each other.”

"Then why didn't he join Fan and Bank of China directly to start a war with Zhao?" Wu Xie asked rhetorically.

Fu Sou looked hesitant: "Perhaps it is because the Zhao clan is powerful, while Fan and Zhongxing are increasingly weakened, and they have hatred with Han and Wei. Joining the Zhi clan will cause the Zhi clan to fall into the abyss of war that cannot be escaped. Bo is a cautious and careful person, and he rarely makes a move, once he makes a move, he must be sure to win..."

"Having said so much, it's still speculation." Zhao Wuxi rubbed Sun X, very troubled.

Authority, the authority of the Jin state is still in the hands of the ruling ministers, and the rest of the nobles will be the first to attack, and will be ordered by the king, and the odds of winning have dropped greatly.

Zhao Wuxi thought of Dong Anyu again. If only he were here, what was the meaning of the phrase "it's better to strike first", which is completely contrary to the principle of "the first culprit dies"?

At this moment, Yang Yin, who had recently become Zhao Yang's confidant, also touched the slender beard on his chin and said, "According to the opinions of the second and third sons, it is not feasible to reject the Zhizhi clan. You can't turn against the Zhi clan. In fact, in my opinion, you don't need to accept it in its entirety. The so-called promise that the gentleman will not return to Jin, east and west and Zhao will not be one. It will take effect when Zhibo is still in power. Can you stop it? Even as long as you defeat Fan and Bank of China, you can immediately tear up this condition!"

"So you might as well agree first, as for the second item..." He chuckled, disapprovingly: "Your daughter has reached the age of marriage. In the past, people who proposed relatives were always in the wrong place, but it can be seen that the grandson of the family is good. Son-in-law, it can not only complete a marriage, but also temporarily reassure the Zhi family. Why not do it..."

...

boom!

At the end of Yang Yin's voice, he heard a loud noise, and it was Zhao Wuxi who slapped the table.

He glared at Yang Yin angrily: "In exchange for the temporary neutrality of the Zhi clan, should the Zhao clan offer a daughter to show weakness? This price is too high!"

Yang Yin thought that this was due to the deep love between the siblings and Zhao Wuxi's protection of his elder sister. He explained painstakingly: "If this is not the case, the Zhao family may miss Zhibo's friendship and shake his determination to be neutral."

Zhao Wuxi raised his eyebrows slightly and replied, "Zhibo's friendship is poisonous. And it's not credible at all. They pretended to be neutral today, and they released Nanshan. It is meaningless. I am asserting here that even if the Zhi clan is neutral today, sooner or later, they will have a battle with the Zhao clan. That day may be the Ming Dynasty or the day after tomorrow. When the two masters will face each other on the battlefield, you will let them fight. How does my elder sister handle herself!"

After Zhao Wuxi finished speaking, the hall was silent.

Yang Yin was expelled by the villagers three times and neglected by the master five times. Although this person is talented, his emotional intelligence is very low. Now he can say this in front of Ji Ying's father and younger brother. He slowly stretched out his hands from his sleeves, put them on the table, calmly looked at Zhao Wuxie with a sullen face, and said slowly:

"The servant thinks that in exchange for a girl to exchange time to destroy Fan and Bank of China, I think this sacrifice is worth it..."

"Shut up! This is my Zhao's family business, you are a diners, don't talk about it!" Zhao Wuxi was very annoyed, once the anti-scale was revealed, if he had a sword by his side, he would definitely pull out Yang Yin to behead!

"It's you who should shut up! No shirt!" There was a loud shout from behind him again.

But Zhao Yang was disappointed: "I'm not dead yet, and you're not the suzerain of the Zhao clan. It's not your turn to be the master of this matter!"

"Don't hurry up and apologize to Mr., and then go down to me and prepare for tomorrow's marriage!"

Zhao Wuxi clenched his fists, stood still, took a few deep breaths, and then slowed down his voice and bowed to Yang Yin: "Mr. Yang, it's rude if you don't care, I'm rude, I apologize to you here. "

Yang Yin did not expect that Zhao Wuxi, who has always been iron-blooded and cruel in the country of Lu, would have such a big reaction when dealing with Song Lu Zhuqing's hand over the cloud and covering the rain, and he was a little overwhelmed. Retired politely, even saying that he didn't dare.

Zhao Wuxi raised his eyes, looked at the people in the hall, looked at Zhao Yang, and said loudly: "But! I have something to tell my father in private today, and I hope the second and third sons go out for a while, okay?"

The retainers looked at each other, this was the first time they saw Zhao's father and son have a dispute over something, and they didn't know who to listen to.

"Forget it, the second and third sons, let's retire for the time being."

In the end, although Zhao Yang's face was ashen, he still nodded and let everyone go out first.

Yang Hu walked at the back of everyone, and at the moment before the door of the main hall was slammed shut, he turned his head and saw that the shadows of Zhao's father and son standing one by one were reflected by the lamp and candle.

The son's standing figure seems to be a bit more sinister than his father...

...

The warm breeze outside the casement, and the candlelight in the hall flickered, like the heartbeat of a restless heart, and a future with an unpredictable future.

"You asked the ministers to avoid, what do you want to say?" Zhao Yang stern face, since Zhao Wuqi rose up in Mianshang Hunting Garden, he has not been so serious to him.

No, if I think about it carefully, there was a time when Le Qi was detained by Fan Yang during his audience at the Winter Solstice. When the Zhao family was humiliated and humiliated, Zhao Yang almost got angry and started an army, and fought with Fan and the Bank of China Erqing. .

Today's enmity between Zhao's and Erqing is just a legacy from six years ago.

Zhao Wuxi lowered his head and said, "Father. I just want to finish what I have to say."

"What? Six years ago, I treated you differently because you said something to me: Only those who can endure humiliation can achieve great things. Duke Wen of Jin was expelled from the country. After nineteen years, he returned. In the first battle of Chengpu, he ruled the hegemony; King Zhuang of Chu was overtaken by the Dou clan, and he did not speak for three years, but once he did, he won the Central Plains!"

"You told me, the battle of the six emperors. The battle is not an overnight, but a century-long confrontation... I appreciate your knowledge. As a father, I am ashamed."

"Wu Xie, have you completely forgotten what you said that day, the extraordinary insight of that day? Now this century-old game has come to the end, but you are hesitant and weak, you are too disappointed for the father!"

Facing Zhao Yang's eyes. Zhao Wuxi was speechless. He understood Zhao Yang's mood back then.

How he hopes that the current Zhao Yang is still the one who values ​​love and righteousness, and puts his relatives, friends and family first... But, Zhao Yang, this old boy has grown up, and the setbacks and experiences over the years have made his edge and corners smoothed.

It was a rainy winter night, and the furious Zhao Yang put his sword on the shoulders of his calm son. Threat him to move away.

Now, the situation is completely reversed. The son wants to act on his own accord, but the father is unbelievably indifferent.

Maybe not so indifferent. He just hid his soft heart inside the rigid armor, Zhao Yang sighed a long time, the whole person looked very tired: "Speak, what you want to say, just say it."

"Father, it is impossible for the Zhi clan and the Zhao clan to coexist. There must be a battle between the two!"

Zhao Yang nodded: "I know, I am afraid of Zhi Bo, and Zhi Bo is also deeply afraid of me."

"If your elder sister really married the Zhi clan, and the Zhao clan must destroy the Zhi clan, what would you do? Would you be kind and soft-hearted because the Zhi clan is an in-law?"

"I will..." Zhao Wuxi paused, is this the inertia of history, or is it a joke with him, always wanting the fate in front of him?

"What will happen to you?" Zhao Yang stared at the most promising son. He wanted to know how powerful he was.

Ni scale was touched, Zhao Wuxi now deeply hated the Zhi clan, he gritted his teeth, "I will take away their land, exterminate their clan, smash Zhi Xiao's head with copper, and smash Zhi Yao's head. I will do these things without hesitation... But if my sister is married to the Zhi clan, then with her temperament, she will not be able to do it. Both, I'm afraid she will grind to death!"

"So no matter what, this in-law cannot agree!"

Zhao Yang laughed. The laughter was small at first, but gradually became louder. He laughed out loud and resounded throughout the hall.

He laughed so hard that he was out of breath and burst into tears. He got up and walked to Wu Xie's side, holding his shoulder and said, "Okay, good, so I can rest assured that Wu Xie's size has not become smaller. After a hundred years, I will, You can rest assured that Zhao's future will be handed over to you... Rest assured, Zhibo's first request, Zhao's will only make a false promise with them, and the two Zhaos are all yours!"

"Then sister..."

"Put away the love between your sons and daughters, and the love between your brothers and sisters!" Zhao Yang's tone turned cold.

He said coldly: "Shiyan, a person who travels a hundred miles is more than ninety years old. Now the Zhao family is only one step away from defeating a strong enemy and monopolizing the position of Shangqing. The Zhao family needs the neutrality of the Zhi family, and I will promise to marry Xu. Even if it can be exchanged for Zhishi's paralysis for half a year. After the extermination of Fan and Bank of China, you must remember the hatred of being coerced by Zhishi and blackmailed by Zhishi, and you will not hesitate to eliminate Zhao who wants to strangle me today. The enemy of the throat!"

Although it was Spring March, Zhao Wuxi felt that everything around him was frozen.

He once felt that Zhao Yang had become unfamiliar, but at this moment he was sure that this was Zhao Yang, that's right.

This is the Zhao Jianzi in history who married Ji Ying to Daiguo and instructed Zhao Xiangzi before his death, "There is a treasure in Changshan, I die, and I will climb to the north of Xiawu Mountain and look at it".

There is his beloved daughter, and the land he has coveted for a long time...

He loves Ji Ying~www.wuxiahere.com~ loves his precious daughter, but he loves Zhao more and wins more!

Poor Confucius, the most ruthless emperor's family... The price of becoming a qualified politician is the helplessness called ruthless.

But no shirt, it is no longer the original no shirt!

Zhao Wuxi tightly held Zhao Yang's hand on his shoulder.

"Father."

"If there is no elder sister, even if I am the minister of a great country, I will have this splendid mountains and rivers, who will I tell you?"
