Chapter 341 Yang Guang's Joy and the Darkening of Guo Jia (Thank You for the 10,000 Words, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)

The triangle has stability, but the three countries do not.

Moreover, using naval troops to land from the Bohai Sea to capture Linzi and force the King of Qi to surrender is the most optimistic prediction, but who can guarantee that Linzi will be captured? Who can guarantee that the monarchs and ministers of Qi will definitely stay in Linzi?

Linzi is not on the coast, and there is no good port or suitable landing place to the north of Linzi. Instead, there are large silt tidal flats. If you directly land on the tidal flats, you may not only fall into the tidal flats, but also be discovered by the surrounding cities; if you go there, By water, if you go up the Jishui River and turn to the Zishui River to attack Linzi, you will also be able to frighten the enemy.

Dong Huangjun was not afraid that the Qi people would defend Linzi, but they were afraid that the King of Qi would escape again.

If the King of Qi and Hou Sheng cannot be captured quickly and forced to surrender, then this battle will be of little significance.

Before the rise of the Confucian family, the folk customs in Qi were still very fierce and brave. The five hundred people of Tian Heng, one of the ancestors of the Japanese, were all Qi people; Tian Dan Fu Qi was also in the whole territory When the enemy fell, they launched a tenacious counterattack.

At this time in the Qi State, if the King of Qi does not take the initiative to surrender, the subsequent side effects will be great.

Even if the Qi State can be successfully destroyed, the Qin State will not be easy to deal with. Due to strategic considerations, Qin will definitely send out a large army to help restore Qi, or force the Yu army and Qin to fight a decisive battle on terrain suitable for the Qin army, while Zhao will most likely sit back and watch.

The reason why Zhao Guo stood on the sidelines was very simple. It had only been a few years since the Yu State came out, and it had destroyed both Chu and Qi. How could Zhao not be vigilant?

Therefore, if you want to destroy Qi, you still need to plan carefully, there is no need to be too anxious.

We strive to wait until the plan to destroy Qi is implemented, so that we can decide the outcome in one battle instead of turning into a war of attrition.

Since now is not the best time to destroy Qi, it is not a bad idea to destroy Wei first.

Without Wei Wu soldiers, the state of Wei is just a piece of fat.

"I guess that Qin's initial plan may be to join forces with Qi to destroy Wei. After that, all Chu and other places on the south side of Wei will be handed over to Qi, so that the contact area between Qi and Dayu will be further expanded. , allowing Qi State to stand between Qin State and Dayu, thereby easing the national defense pressure on the long border between Qin State and Yu State, and better concentrating its forces to deal with the northern war situation.

Once Qin succeeds in destroying Wei, it is likely that it will unite with Qi to deal with South Korea, and will find ways to sow discord between Dayu and Qi so that we can fight Qi, while Qin's main focus will be on solving Zhao On the country.

Of course, there is another possibility. The Qin State deliberately let the wind go, allowing the Wei State to ask for help from our country and South Korea. After the South Korean reinforcements are dispatched again, the Qin State will focus on destroying South Korea! "

Jia Xu pointed at the map and said.

Strategic matters can affect the whole body. It is difficult to guarantee what Qin State thinks.

"The level of Yuan Zhi is still too low, and we can't get more information."

Dong Huang sighed.

There was one thing he didn't say, that is, Zhao Ji and the Queen Mother Huayang were too useless. The two Queen Mothers should be more powerful people than the King of Qin at this stage. Why couldn't this bit of information be obtained and sent to them?

[Perhaps it’s not that they can’t get it, but that their IQ is not enough for them to distinguish which information is important and which information is not important. I really don’t know what these two stupid women are doing! 】

Dong Huang was helpless.

At this time, Qin State, Ganquan Palace.

Zhao Ji and Queen Mother Huayang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, were hugging each other tightly.

They are raising dragons.

They raised many two-headed dragons of different shapes.

"V" shaped ones, "I" shaped ones, and some weird shapes.

Compared to Dong Huang, they are more like the real Huanlong clan.

"When will the master come back? I really want to give birth to a child for the master and inherit the Great Qin!"

Zhao Ji half-closed her eyes and said in confusion.

"Ying Zheng is indeed getting in the way, and I don't know why the master wants to keep him. He should have been eliminated long ago and let the master be the king of Qin, and we can be the master's queen together!"

Queen Mother Huayang clenched her fists tightly and put all her thoughts on Dong Huang.

Their minds are relatively simple to begin with. One is a brother-supporting demon, and the other is a love brain. Even if they are not returning to their hearts, they can still send people to kill Ying Zheng. Now that they are returning to their hearts, how do they view Ying Zheng? dislike; despise.

"Why don't you trick him here? You and I can join forces and kill him directly. If we do it, he won't suspect anything! Once Ying Zheng is killed, the master will be able to stay in Daqin openly!"

The empty and lonely love mind regards Ying Zheng as the enemy that prevents Dong Huang from coming to favor her.

"Don't be impulsive! The palace people around Ying Zheng are very powerful. Even if you and I take action, the ancestral palace people around Ying Zheng will never show mercy to us. Even if we can kill Ying Zheng, you I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape death, and I’ll be able to gain advantage over the other Ying clan in vain!”

Queen Mother Huayang is obviously smarter than Zhao Ji.

"Then what should we do?"

The anxious Queen Mother Zhao stabbed the Queen Mother Huayang.

"Well……"

Queen Mother Huayang closed her eyes and was silent for a long time, and then spoke in a hoarse voice: "The best way is to take control of the army and directly mutiny to get rid of Ying Zheng. The secret guards and palace people around him are not counted in front of the military formation. What!"

Queen Mother Huayang told her clever plan.

"It's really a brilliant idea!"

Zhao Ji's eyes lit up.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with Queen Mother Huayang's plan, but she was eager to try it: "Before, a general from Bai Jie sent people to offer me a large number of rare treasures, as if he wanted to take refuge in me, but I didn't pay much attention to it, maybe You can take advantage of it. In addition, there are people asking me for positions such as Weiwei, Neishi, Zuoyi, and Zhongdafuling."

Zhao Ji's lack of scheming was clearly revealed at this moment.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother Huayang, who is also politically savvy, is her staunchest ally. Otherwise, she really doesn’t know what would happen.

"These positions are very important and must be filled by our talents. It's a pity that Lord Changping failed, otherwise they could be used by us."

To this day, Queen Mother Huayang still believes in Lord Changping.

"I've heard about that Bai Jie. He seems to be a descendant of Bai Qi. You can transfer him here to check the situation first. Give him an officer like Zuo Yi or Zhongda Fu Ling to check the situation. He is really willing to be a dog for us. It’s not too late for promotion. You can also ask the master for some talents.”

Queen Mother Huayang suggested.

Dong Huang had not dared to tell the two of Xu Shu's identity before. It wasn't that he didn't trust their loyalty, but he just didn't trust their IQ.

"Ah~Master~"

Zhao Ji's face was as red as a ripe peach.

"I really want to take a hot spring bath with the master, I really want to..."

Zhao Ji couldn't help herself.

After returning to the heart, the love brain has been completely upgraded to the ultimate form of the love brain.

Now Zhao Ji, even if Dong Huang asked her to walk around Xianyang naked, she would not hesitate.

In other words, she is willing to complete any form of master's tasks.

Although Queen Mother Huayang was also itched by Zhao Ji, she had not completely lost her IQ: "We must also be careful about that old bitch Xia Ji!"

When Xia Ji was mentioned, Queen Mother Huayang was a little unhappy.

Xia Ji is the biological mother of Qin Shihuang's father, Qin Yiren, but the Queen Mother Huayang is the legitimate mother. The relationship between the two is very delicate.

That is to say, Ying Yiren died early, otherwise it would be natural for the biological mother to take precedence over the legitimate mother.

"Queen Mother Xia? What happened to her?"

Zhao Ji is not interested in Xia Ji because Xia Ji is not like the Queen Mother of Huayang in her prime. Xia Ji is an old woman of forty-seven or eighty-years-old, so she can still be a threat.

"Xia Ji is a Korean, and Cheng Xi's mother is also a Korean. There are many Koreans in our country in Daqin, such as Fan Yuqi and Nei Shiteng. What's interesting is that the eldest brother of the late king won Xi’s second wife is also Korean.”

Queen Mother Huayang said with hatred for iron.

"What do these Koreans want to do? Do they also covet the throne?"

Zhao Ji finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

Qian'er, before she knew it, the Korean influence among the Qin people was already so big! Luo Wang didn't send out any information on such an important matter. This must be because that bastard Lu Buwei hadn't spit out the Luo Network yet and secretly controlled part of the Luo Network. This led to his lack of information!

Damn Lu Buwei.

Zhao Ji hated Lu Buwei.

But soon, Zhao Ji rolled her eyes: "Even Xia Ji can't resist the temptation of eternal youth, right?"

"What do you want to do? That's an old woman."

Queen Mother Huayang looked at Zhao Ji warily. She felt that Zhao Ji wanted to die.

"I mean, if she sees our virgin-like skin and our beautiful faces, will she be jealous to death? Hahaha~ah~no~"

Zhao Ji laughed first, then exclaimed.

[Hmph, if I hadn't discovered the master's charm in time, I'm afraid you would have used this trick to make me angry. 】

Queen Mother Huayang instantly saw through Zhao Ji's sinister intentions.

She decided to punish this vicious little bitch severely.

However, Zhao Ji reacted not to be outdone, and was determined to make this old woman see how terrible she was...

——

Dong Huang ignored the topic of the two stupid women, and finally decided to find an opportunity to go to the Qin Kingdom, and then let Jing Sala and Xu Shu reveal their identities. If they didn't reveal their identities, Dong Huang felt that these two stupid women would only be a disservice in the future. .

"Is Meng Ao of Qin still confronting Lian Po of Zhao? Previously, Meng Ao used the river to jump across the river repeatedly, but he played a cruel trick on Lian Po and Wei. Can Lian Po let him run away again?"

Dong Huang looked at the location of Xinye on the map. It was the only area in Kyushu where large armies were fighting at this time.

"Lian Po's previous actions should have been to coordinate Li Mu's surprise attack. Now that Li Mu has freed up his hands, Lian Po should also take action."

Dong Zhao interrupted.

"I remember that Lian Po ran away in history, right? Then he was framed by Guo Kai. Unfortunately, Guo Kai is dead."

Dong Huang couldn't help but feel sorry for Guo Kai, the God of War.

Before, when Dayu's army was weak, Dong Huang wanted to make Zhao Guo stronger. He didn't want anything to happen to Lian Po or Guo Kai to gain power; but now Dayu is strong, at least able to reach the strength of Chu at its peak. So I don't want Zhao to be too strong, and I miss the dead Guo Kai.

"Your Majesty's wonderful idea."

Jia Xu's little eyes flashed, and he said: "Just use counterintuitive tactics to make Lian Po escape. Lian Po is a good general, but has no political acumen, is impulsive and conceited, and now leads a heavy army for a long time away; without merit, Li Mu has outstanding military achievements, but he praises Li Mu and belittles Lian Po to see if he can let King Zhao use Li Mu to lead Lian Po. If he succeeds, Lian Po will run away! If he runs away, there will not be many countries to choose from. "

"I think so too."

Dong Huang laughed.

It doesn't matter whether he thinks so or not. He is the emperor anyway. If he says yes, then yes.

As for whether Lian Po will really flee to Dayu after the success, it is actually not important.

With Lian Po's personality, and theoretically, he doesn't have many years to live, it is unlikely that he will return.

It would be best if he could come. We can try to see if we can subdue him, or give him a few more women, add some medicine to his food, and see if he can produce offspring.

Although Dong Huang would not send out women who trust him as goods, he could send out women from the Jiaofangsi, including Qingguan women. If they can get pregnant with Lian Po's children, they can be restored to good status. I believe this will give them enough motivation.

To be honest, the war agents' kidnapping of Xiang Kui to borrow surrogacy to give birth to a child really shocked Dong Huang.

Dong Huang had to admit that he was still too young.

Of course, if Lian Po didn't come to surrender, it didn't matter. Then send someone to capture or kill him. If he was captured, the operation would be the same as Xiang Kui; if he was killed accidentally, he could also see if he could explode his skills.

Lian Po was a famous general in this era, and there was a great possibility that his skills would be destroyed after his death.

Poor Lian Po didn't know that he had been targeted by the treacherous people of Yu and Qin, as well as many war agents. At this time, he was still fantasizing about defeating Meng Ao, killing Qin soldiers, and avenging the Battle of Changping.

However, Meng Ao was not easy to deal with. Even if Meng Ao's ability was not as good as Lian Po's, it was not much different. Without making a fatal mistake, Lian Po had no good solution.

Head-on battles between large armies like Dong Huang and Changping Jun were not that frequent.

Lian Po could only confront Meng Ao, and for a while, neither side had any effective results.

Time passed quickly, and the first year of Qin Wang Zheng passed quickly.

At the beginning of the second year of Qin Wang Zheng, Dong Huang sent Qin Wang Zheng a great gift.

Zhao Ji and Queen Mother Huayang were going to build palaces in Shaoshi Mountain and Zhongnan Mountain.

Ying Zheng felt that Shaoshi Mountain was a little dangerous, after all, it was a little close to enemy countries such as Han, but he had no say.

Lü Buwei, who had a say, did not dare to refuse, but instead hoped to build the palace as soon as possible so that the two beauties could get out.

Lü Buwei really didn't want to see these two stupid women involved in politics anymore.

So even if Qin's national strength was a little overdrawn, Lü Buwei had to grit his teeth and build palaces for the two queen mothers.

However, what Lü Buwei didn't know was that when he gritted his teeth and worked hard for the Qin and the two queen mothers and couldn't sleep at night, the two queen mothers also tried their best to win favor and couldn't sleep at night.

It was late at night.

Zhao Ji, who was used to sleeping with Queen Mother Huayang, suddenly felt something touching her.

From head to toe.

From toe to head.

Zhao Ji, who was exhausted, opened her eyes and found that her eyes had been covered.

"Ah~ Woo~"

Zhao Ji was shocked and subconsciously wanted to call for help.

However, the visitor roughly blocked her mouth with her underwear.

Zhao Ji was so angry that she wanted to die. She tried her best to resist, but her hands were tied behind her back.

…

At this time, Queen Mother Huayang also woke up. She hadn't figured out the situation yet, but as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw black in front of her eyes. Then she was blindfolded and her hands and feet were tied.

…

Until the shortcut to the depths of her soul was filled, Zhao Ji, who had difficulty spitting out the cloth strips, shouted: "Master, I want to give birth to a son for you, and I want our son to inherit the Qin Dynasty."

It turned out that she had recognized Dong Huang.

Even if Dong Huang deliberately played a trick to give them a surprise, some things could not be changed no matter how hard they were hidden.

Queen Mother Huayang, who had also been tied up and blindfolded without any resistance, finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and then completely sank.

…

As we all know, role-playing is really exciting.

…

Dong Huang stayed in the palace of the two queen mothers for a month, during which time he introduced the Sun-covering Card Jing Niu to meet them frankly.

Zhao Ji and Queen Mother Huayang also eloquently played the harp and the flute for Dong Huang.

Dong Huang's deep affection was also highly recommended by the three women.

They had no dissatisfaction with Dong Huang's arrangement.

"Find a way to frame Wang Jian, let Wang Jian completely disappoint the Qin Dynasty, and then flee to the State of Yu? Leave it to us!"

"Send the families of Xiahou Fa and other Qin prisoners to the State of Yu? It's a piece of cake!"

"The secret of the Ruishi Army? Spreading minions? No problem!"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes!"

"Yes, ah ah ah!"

What bad intentions can the queen mothers have?

They just want to make their beloved men happy.

The brother-supporting demon only needs to empty the husband's house to be very happy;

The love-brained person only needs the master to continue to issue tasks to be very happy.

As for Jingwei, she is just a happy tool.

——

Zhao State, King Xiaocheng of Zhao is already terminally ill.

King Xiaocheng of Zhao's favorite concubine, Song Ji, forced a smile as she fed him medicine and waited for him to sleep, but she served him by his side without taking off her clothes.

Song Ji was a little terrified.

Not long ago, her family came to deliver a letter to him, but she didn't know the person who delivered the letter.

The person who delivered the letter gave her a task and told her that if she failed to complete the task, her whole family would be killed.

However, the content of the task made her blush.

She hesitated and didn't know whether she should execute it, but she couldn't watch her parents and brothers die; besides, she didn't want to die herself.

Because the person who sent the letter told her that as one of King Zhao Xiaocheng's most beloved concubines, if she didn't take action, she might be buried.

Song Ji was very hesitant.

But before Prince Zhao Yan arrived, she lit a stick of special incense given to her by the messenger.

At three o'clock in the morning, Zhao Yan came on time.

In fact, Zhao Yan always came to see his father at this time. It was too late and he would go out to spend the day and night, and it was too early and he still couldn't get up.

This time is just right, it is the time when the yang energy is strongest in a day.

As soon as Zhao Yan came in, he smelled a special fragrance.

It was a crispy and sweet taste, very sweet and charming, just like Song Ji, the concubine beside his father, who was very sweet and charming!

Zhao Yan couldn't help but look at Song Ji one more time.

Song Ji is wearing a purple palace-style tube top dress, which outlines deep ravines and neat curvatures. The waist is tight and the hips are tightly wrapped, highlighting the straight outline; there is a hidden slit on the side of the dress. Fork, you can't see it at all when standing still, but as Song Ji bowed to Zhao Yan to say hello, her white feet wearing purple string high-heeled sandals and lotus roots tied with red strings were immediately revealed. Knuckle-like calves, and sexy snowy thighs.

Zhao Yan's eyes were instantly attracted, and he felt a burning sensation in his heart.

"Master?"

Song Ji, who was still maintaining her saluting posture, turned red and quickly wanted to get up, but Zhao Yan had quick eyes and quick hands and accidentally slapped Song Ji on the thigh.

"Ah~"

Song Ji exclaimed, but Zhao Yan covered her mouth and hugged her in his arms.

Zhao Yan was actually shocked by his behavior. Fortunately, King Zhao Xiaocheng was seriously ill and needed to be quiet. There were no other attendants around him, only Song Ji.

"Son, you, please let me go!"

Song Ji was about to cry and struggled carefully.

She was really afraid of being seen by King Zhao Xiaocheng.

However, she herself knew exactly what would happen when she lit the incense stick.

In fact, it was not just Zhao Yan who was a lot more impulsive, but she also found herself feeling hot.

She didn't dare to look in the mirror, but she knew that her face must be red.

"My dear, your love smells so good!"

The harder Song Ji struggled, she hit something she shouldn't touch, which completely burned Zhao Yan's sanity.

Holding this plump and charming woman in his arms, and the woman's identity is still his father's favorite concubine, and his father is still in front of him. At this moment, his father Yang Guang and Li Zhi, who married his father's woman, are in Zhao. With Yan's soul possessed, Zhao Yan seemed to have been baptized by countless descendants in time and space, becoming extremely bold and violent...

"I~I am your father's wife!"

Song Ji’s symbolic struggle.

"Follow me, and when I succeed to the throne, I will make you my queen!"

Zhao Yan was as eager as Li Shimin who overwhelmed his sister-in-law at this moment, making any promises at will.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is still there..."

Song Ji still wanted to struggle.

Zhao Yan did not intend to give her a chance.

Zhao Yan had already roughly pulled open the hem of her skirt.

Forced into a corner, Song Ji could only shout to the outside: "The king wants to have a secret conversation with the prince, and no one is allowed to come closer than a hundred steps here!"

As a result, the attendants outside kept away.

This made Zhao Yan smile even happier.

A fierce conflict officially began.

However, the two people caught in the collision of passion did not notice that the incense burned out at some point, and King Zhao Xiaocheng opened his eyes at some point.

"Evil... evil beast!"

King Zhao Xiaocheng roared angrily and spat out a mouthful of blood.

This roar also brought Zhao Yan and Song Ji back to their senses.

"Father?"

Zhao Yan was so frightened that he quickly wanted to lift his pants.

But King Zhao Xiaocheng was leaning on the bed, pointing at the two of them angrily, and couldn't help but open his mouth: "I...ahem...I'm going to kill...you guys, come...come..."

He's going to shake people up.

He wants to destroy this couple!

However, before he finished speaking, Song Ji picked up a pillow and pressed it on her head.

At this moment, Song Ji remembered what Mysterious Le said to her: Once King Zhao Xiaocheng finds out, you can only let Zhao Yan kill the king with you, otherwise Zhao Yan may not die, but you will definitely die! But if you kill the king together, you and Zhao Yan have a common secret, maybe you can become the queen!

Song Ji obviously doesn't want to die.

At this time, she could only try her best.

"Sir, do you want to be killed? Do you want to die or become the new king?"

Song Ji was going crazy with anxiety.

"this……"

Zhao Yan also suddenly became clever.

Become a king and enjoy countless beauties; or be ruined and die without a burial place?

The panicked Zhao Yan followed Song Ji in a daze and extended his evil hand to King Zhao Xiaocheng.

The two of them worked together to pin King Zhao Xiaocheng under the pillow. In order to prevent the pressure from being tight enough, Zhao Yan also specially added a quilt.

The weak King Zhao Xiaocheng didn't even have the strength to push Song Ji away, let alone a strong man?

In the end, King Zhao Xiaocheng left uneasily.

Until he left, he didn't understand how things would turn out like this.

After confirming that King Zhao Xiaocheng was really dead, the two people, who were so frightened that they collapsed, hugged each other and gradually regained their strength...

——

In the twenty-eighth year of Dayu and the second year of the First Emperor of Qin, King Zhao Xiaocheng passed away and his son mourned the death of King Xiang.

There were rumors in the Zhao Palace that Zhao Yan, the King of Zhao, committed adultery with his father's concubine, Song Ji, and after being discovered, he killed the king and took the throne.

There were also rumors that when Zhao Yan was keeping vigil for the coffin of King Xiaocheng of Zhao, he and Song Ji had an affair in front of the coffin.

The rumors were so vivid that they spread throughout Handan City almost overnight.

Compared with the facts, ordinary people were obviously more keen to spread and believe in negative news and gossip about the emperor's family.

For a time, there were countless versions of the story of Zhao Yan and Song Ji.

But Zhao Yan didn't care at all, because he was ready to marry Song Ji.

He was completely fascinated by Song Ji.

However, what Zhao Yan didn't know was that what really fascinated him was not Song Ji, but the incense lit by Song Ji, and the fragrance on Song Ji's body.

This was a special incense made by Queen Mother He and Chao Nv Yao, which had the effect of aphrodisiac and hallucination.

After Dong Huang showed a little interest in Lian Po, Dayu's intelligence system began to act.

Li Ru was a mess in the intelligence war against Qin and Qi before. This time, he was also ruthless. He personally integrated all the intelligence resources of Dayu and secretly went to Handan from Qi to analyze and deploy, and finally formulated this plan.

Li Ru is actually a completely different type from Lü Buwei, Jia Xu and others. Lü Buwei's good strategy is from the perspective of a businessman, good at exchanging interests and corrupting people's hearts; Jia Xu is a top strategist, good at starting from the general trend and playing with people's hearts; Li Ru is a vicious dog, loyal, vicious and vicious.

Li Ru is good at stimulating the evil of human nature and taking advantage of the evil of human nature.

In dealing with Lian Po, Li Ru chose Zhao Yan, the prince of Zhao.

In history, it was Zhao Yan who forced Lian Po away.

But how to approach Zhao Yan, who was protected by many war agents of Zhao State?

Li Ru's method is to do the opposite and let Zhao Yan take the initiative to take the bait.

Li Ru knew that Zhao Yan liked women, so he worked hard on women. On this point, he and Lü Buwei thought of the same thing.

Unlike Lü Buwei, Li Ru did not choose to send women, a trick that could easily be detected by war agents, but let Zhao Yan take the initiative.

He chose Song Ji, the favorite concubine of King Xiaocheng of Zhao.

Song Ji was beautiful, filial, and favored. At a time when everyone was waiting for King Xiaocheng of Zhao to die and waiting for Crown Prince Zhao Yan to succeed to the throne, few people would pay attention to her. Even if there were people who wanted to go the wife route, they would only go to the prostitute that made Zhao Yan unable to stop in history. Who would care about a concubine who was about to end?

What's more, King Xiaocheng of Zhao favored more than just Song Ji.

So, Li Ru sent Black and White Xuan Jian, Hidden Bat, and King of Hundred Poisons to lead the mutants to control Song Ji's family, and then coerced Song Ji, and let Song Ji use special incense to poison several other concubines of King Xiaocheng of Zhao, so that she could take care of King Xiaocheng of Zhao alone. At this point, everything was ready.

It was natural for Zhao Yan to fall into the trap.

And this is just the first step for Li Ru to control Zhao Yan.

Li Ru also needs to see if the drug made by Queen Mother He and Chao Nv Yao is effective, right?

If the effect is good enough, then we can proceed to the next step.

During this period, Li Ru has secretly sent Song Ji's family to South Korea, and asked the members of Di Ting to disguise a new Song Ji's family through makeup and other means, in case of emergency.

Facts have proved that everything went more smoothly than expected.

The son killing the father is really nothing in Zhao State; in fact, throughout the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, sons killing fathers, ministers killing kings, fathers marrying daughters-in-law, and women committing adultery are too common.

No one would have thought that Zhao Yan would kill King Xiaocheng of Zhao, who had only a few days to live, without any warning.

After Zhao Yan ascended the throne, out of distrust of the original palace guards and eunuchs, and out of the need to have sex with Song Ji, the guards guarding the inner palace were replaced by his old people from the Prince's Mansion. These people were obviously not as perceptive and powerful as the original inner palace guards and eunuchs, and naturally did not notice that Zhao Yan and Song Ji were not right, and even if they noticed it, they dared not say it.

So, Song Ji's position was temporarily stabilized.

However, this stability is not real stability. Now she is just a whore who disregards human ethics. She doesn't want to be killed by Zhao Yan, killed by Zhao Yan's wife, and killed by the officials in the court, so she can only listen to Li Ru.

She can only use the incense and elixir provided by Li Ru to confuse Zhao Yan, strive to become Zhao Yan's princess as soon as possible, and give birth to a prince for Zhao Yan as soon as possible.

Song Ji, who has the handle in Li Ru's hands and is driven by ambition, naturally dare not refuse any request from Li Ru.

After another intimate moment in front of the coffin, Song Ji expressed her concerns to Zhao Yan: "Lian Po was originally at odds with the king, and now he has a large army. I heard that he has some doubts about the death of the previous king, so he wants to lead his army back to Handan to depose and enthrone the king in secret while making a truce with Qin on the surface! Although I also think that the rumors may not be credible, Lian Po has a high prestige in the army, and now he has so many troops under his control, what if..."

"My beloved concubine, you are right."

Zhao Yan also doesn't like Lian Po, the domineering general. When Guo Kai was there before, Guo Kai often said bad things about Lian Po. Although Guo Kai is gone now, Zhao Yan still doesn't have a good impression of Lian Po.

"My beloved concubine, what do you think we should do?"

Zhao Yan couldn't help asking.

Although Zhao Yan gathered many war agents around him to give advice, those people always spoke well of Lian Po intentionally or unintentionally, saying that the Great Zhao had two top generals, Lian Po and Li Mu, and they could definitely sweep away the six countries and establish unprecedented achievements.

This made Zhao Yan dislike it very much.

Especially when I saw Lian Po's smug look on his face and how he was chatting and drinking with many people who praised him, I became even more displeased.

When he was the prince, he didn't dare to offend Lian Po openly, so he had to endure it, but now...

"This concubine only knows how to serve the great king, how can I know about national affairs..."

Song Ji, half-covered and half-exposed in mourning clothes, knelt in front of Zhao Yan.

"Beauty...you understand, you understand everything!"

Zhao Yan laughed.

Zhao Yan is not a complete idiot, lust is just a man's instinct, let alone nothing.

Just now, Zhao Yan was actually testing Song Ji. He felt that Song Ji's sudden sword attack on Lian Po might not be so pure.

But it turns out he may have been overthinking it.

Because Song Ji didn't have any other demands, she just wanted to serve him well.

This made him love Song Ji even more. This love was no longer the evil thoughts and impulses caused by stimulation before, but became the love between men and women.

Zhao Yan began to think while stroking Song Ji's hair.

He felt that it might not be a good thing for Lian Po, an old man who had trouble dealing with him, to continue to hold so much military power. And since the strategic goal of the army has been achieved, there is no need to waste time with Qin's rebel king.

The lessons of the Changping Battle are at hand. Even if Zhao Yan dislikes Lian Po, he cannot change his generals before the battle. Otherwise, if there is another Changping Battle, the Zhao Kingdom will really be doomed.

He decided to make a truce with Qin first. After the truce, he pretended to be promoted to Lian Po and pretended to be prime minister to come back for the funeral. After the army returned, he would seize Lian Po's military power.

As for who to replace Lian Po, naturally it cannot be Li Mu, because Li Mu already has an elite army. Zhao Yan's first choice is Le Cheng, followed by Pang Nuan and Le Jian.

Le Cheng is the younger brother of Le Yi. He has outstanding abilities and has the experience of defeating the Qin general Wang Lu;

Pang Nuan and the famous Pang Juan are of the same clan. They were originally from a wealthy family in the Wei State. They came to the Zhao State to develop during the Pang Cong period. Pang Cong was once famous as "three people become a tiger" in history. Pang Nuan was a longevity star in history. He had performed well in the era of King Wuling of Zhao, and was more important to Zhao Yan than Li Mu. Not only did he lead his army to defeat Yan after Li Mu had already emerged, but he also served as the commander-in-chief of the Five Kingdoms' expedition against Qin, with outstanding abilities and prestige;

Lejian is Leyi's son.

All in all, Zhao State does not lack the talent of generals-although the above three generals may not be Meng Ao's opponents.

But for monarchs, when deciding who to hand over military power to, sometimes they not only consider ability, but also faction, loyalty, and politics.

Lian Po, for example, had been the number one military general in the Zhao Kingdom for decades. He had disciples and former officials all over the Zhao Kingdom, and he also controlled half of the Zhao Kingdom’s army. This was a target that the monarch should be wary of. However, he still had an affair with the new monarch. There was discord between Zhao Yan and Zhao Yan's country was unjust. He killed his father and came to power. He had evil intentions in his heart. How could Zhao Yan trust Lian Po?

Zhao's sudden withdrawal was completely unexpected by Meng Ao, because Meng Ao had already received news of the death of King Zhao Xiaocheng.

The alternation of monarch power will inevitably lead to a series of chain reactions. Zhao naturally does not have the energy to fight Qin at this time.

Because he had expected it, Meng Ao did not pursue it.

The reason is not just because he was defeated in death, but also because Meng Ao knew Lian Po very well.

A famous general like Lian Po would not give him a chance.

Lian Po's withdrawal means that Qin's uninterrupted war since the year before last has finally come to an end.

Meng Ao made a gesture of withdrawing the main force, which made Wei feel a little relieved.

When Qin and Zhao were at war, the one who feared the most was Wei, because Wei, which had almost lost all its soldiers and could barely maintain peace by ceding territory, had become a frightened bird.

As everyone knows, the real target of Meng Ao's army is precisely the defenseless Wei State.

After Meng Ao made the strategic deception of returning the army to the army, he again moved south from Yan and Xu, which had become Qin's land along the Baima Crossing River, forcibly crossed the Jishui River, captured Huangchi, an important town on the south bank of the Jishui River, and surrounded Daliang with troops.

At the same time, the State of Qi betrayed its faith and went out of Jiyang to besiege Yongqiu of the State of Wei.

At this time, Huang Zhong's troops in Dayu, who originally supported Wei, had to retreat to Juyang because Wei was bent on seeking peace; the Korean reinforcements Bai Yifei (Guo Jia)'s troops had also withdrawn to Chendu; Wei had only Wei's own army held on. The only mobile troops in Wei State turned out to be the Weida and Weiliao Corps.

The King of Wei could only order Weida and Wei Liao's troops to return to Daliang for support. At the same time, he asked for help from Dayu, South Korea, and Zhao, and promised to cede territory to these countries. Among them, Zhao was the most sincere in asking for help, and even promised to The enclave of Hebei, Yecheng, and other places were ceded to Zhao.

Yecheng has been a majestic city since Ximen Bao took over it. It is rich in products and has a large population. This time, Wei State has spent a lot of money.

In comparison, the benefits promised to Dayu and South Korea are a little less meaningful. There is nothing that can be done about it. The Wei State in the Yecheng enclave is willing to give it, but how can it be willing to give it to the surrounding core area.

What's more, the King of Wei also looked down upon the strength of Dayu and Han. He felt that they and the soldiers of Wei were no match for the Qin army. To defeat Qin, he would undoubtedly have to rely on the Zhao army.

Undoubtedly, King Wei once again narrowed the road.

However, after Meng Ao repeatedly attacked Daliang to no avail, under the prompts of the war agent, he began to dig rivers to divert water, preparing to flood Daliang as soon as there was sufficient water.

At this critical moment, Wei Da personally led 30,000 elite troops, including 8,000 Wei Wuzu, and first secretly went south to break into Daliang City from the south, taking over a large number of city defenses, which was considered a shot in the arm for the Daliang defenders.

However, his son Wei Liao secretly met with Guo Jia and prepared to defeat the Qi army first.

Guo Jia and Wei Liao believed that since Qi had become a treacherous villain in the eyes of the Wei people, if Han took action, the Wei people would certainly be grateful, and at that time it would be natural for these lands to be included in Han, and would not cause resistance from the Wei people in Daliang.

Even the King of Wei and Wei Yong could be taken to Han. At that time, Han would be the bad guy, hold the emperor hostage to command the princes, and annex Wei.

Anyway, what Han annexed was also annexed by Dayu.

Maybe, when these Wei people were dissatisfied with Qi and unwilling to be annexed by Han, they would take the initiative to surrender to Dayu?

In short, in the war of annexation and division, Qin was a hungry wolf, Qi was a treacherous bastard, Han was barely a good person, and Dayu was a truly benevolent army.

Guo Jia's decision was actually not exactly the same as that of Dayu Central, but because the world map was too large, the central government had not yet received the information that Qin had already moved south, so naturally only Guo Jia could make the decision.

Guo Jia was also very ambitious. He felt that the Dian Wei and Cheng Yu Corps, which had not moved, could also move. If Huang Zhong Corps also took action, and Zhao could send troops, it was entirely possible to risk leaving Han empty-handed and fight a large encirclement war to encircle and destroy Meng Ao Corps in Daliang!

Even without a large-scale decisive battle, be a little more ruthless and wait until the rainy season to burst the river!

The blackened Guo Jia was not a good person.
