General Qin

Chapter 124 The Chu State Envoy

When Zhao Tuo went back, his face was full of frustration.

Seeing it in his eyes, Li You secretly felt refreshed.

Knowing that this son must have been severely reprimanded by the king, let him know what is the difference between men and women and the way of superiority and inferiority.

After this incident, even if Zhao Tuo did not fall out of favor in front of the king, he would definitely not behave as arrogantly as before, and would dare to leave with the princess in broad daylight.

Things developed as Li You thought.

After that day, Princess Yinman never came to forcibly take Zhao Tuo away under the guise of helping Mr. Su as before.

Because, these two people changed to a more concealed method.

Zhao Tuo wrote the plot of the story in slips in advance every day, and brought it to the palace to be handed over to the waiting princess attendants, and then handed it over to Ying Yinman.

This matter was brought up by Ying Yinman himself.

She is not an arrogant and ignorant woman, even though she skillfully resolved the crisis that day, Qin Wangzheng didn't say anything about it.

But Ying Yinman knew that if she continued to act as before, it would not be long before other problems would arise, so she proposed this method of secret transmission of bamboo slips.

In this way, it not only solves my addiction to stories, but also won't be too obvious and attract the hatred of some people.

The two passed the book on bamboo slips, back and forth, in addition to the story, it was inevitable that they would write some other things.

Li You didn't know about this, and he didn't even know that Zhao Tuo's frustrated expression that day was specially prepared for him.

Li You only knew that Zhao Tuo was pretty good on the whole except for the matter of the princess.

Be humble and polite to yourself, do what you ordered quickly and well, and speak nicely.

Coupled with the king's favor and trust in Zhao Tuo, and his father Li Si's advice.

Li You didn't hold any grudges about the princess, and deliberately made things difficult for Zhao Tuo.

After all, that matter is also the meaning of Mr. Fusu. Although it makes me feel uncomfortable, it's over when it's over, so don't worry too much about it.

Moreover, at this time, Li Si was just a long history, and had not yet become a court lieutenant. Their Li family had not yet stood at the pinnacle of Qin's power, and there were all kinds of veterans oppressing them, so they had no right to be arrogant.

In this case, the relationship between Li You, who has good qualities, and Zhao Tuo is relatively normal, and has not caused any conflicts.

The peaceful and monotonous days passed slowly, and it was November in the Qin calendar in a blink of an eye.

For Zhao Tuo, two important things happened in the middle.

The first thing he did was to take advantage of Xiumu's time, fulfill his promise, and visit Changwen Jun's mansion.

Chang Wenjun warmly invited him before, and although Zhao Tuo didn't want to have too much contact with him, he still didn't want to offend a prince.

Compared with the oppression in Changping Jun's mansion before, Changwen Jun's mansion is full of harmony.

This prince had a very good attitude towards Zhao Tuo. Not only did he stay with Zhao Tuo for a banquet, he arranged songs and dances to cheer him up, and he even gave him a bunch of pearls and jade treasures when he was parting.

Zhao Tuo ate food and watched singing and dancing, but he didn't accept those gifts.

Fortunately, Chang Wenjun did not force him, but praised him with a smile, calling him the future pillar of Qin.

Zhao Tuo was not knocked down by Chang Wenjun's sugar-coated bullets. From Chang Wenjun's words, he knew what the other party wanted.

Join the Chu faction and become the helper of the young master Fusu.

Zhao Tuo was noncommittal about this, just pretending to be a snake, procrastinating for a day.

Compared with Chang Wenjun's warm hospitality, Zhao Tuo really cared about the second thing.

Lord Changping, who stepped down from the position of Prime Minister You, left Xianyang in the name of Zhenfu Handi.

Zhao Tuo knew very well what the real purpose of Mr. Changping's visit was.

Thinking of that kind face and that gentle voice, Zhao Tuo's back felt chills.

Mr. Changping's departure means that the incident is getting closer.

A real life and death crisis!

However, Zhao Tuo didn't have much time to think about this matter, because with the departure of Lord Changping, another major event happened in Xianyang City.

An envoy from Chu State has arrived.

They traveled westward from the capital of Chu and entered Xianyang, the capital of Qin.

The purpose of the envoy's trip was to represent the king of Chu and offer land to the king of Qin to seek peace.

On the second day after the envoys of Chu State entered Xianyang, another major event happened in the capital of Qin State.

The prince of Yan State captured by Qin Jun years ago.

Last year, he instructed Yan envoy Jing Ke to assassinate the mastermind.

Yan Dan.

He was sentenced to death by Qin Wangzheng himself, and was smashed in public in Xianyang City.

pedestrian department.

After experiencing the fire caused by the Yan State Mission last time, the rebuilt State Guest House is taller and more spacious, symbolizing the growing strength of this country.

"Mr. Songyang, the King of Qin intentionally cracked the crown prince of Yan Kingdom in front of us. He is intimidating us!"

In the building, a man shouted angrily.

This man was nearly thirty years old, with a stalwart figure, eight feet tall. His face was upright and handsome, and the burning anger in his eyes showed that he was in a state of rage at the moment.

Songyang Lord Jingzhao sighed, and said to the man, "He, since you know it well, why are you so indignant?"

"Now Qin is strong and the Six Kingdoms are weak. No, Han and Zhao are gone, Yan is also dead in name only, and we are the only three kingdoms left: Chu, Wei, and Qi. Under such circumstances, no one can stop him from doing what King Qin wants to do. ?”

"Don't forget, what is the purpose of you and I entering Qin this time? Put away your anger and take on your duties as deputy envoy. This time, you must ask the king of Qin to agree with you, so that we can find a chance for our country of Chu. .”

Listening to Jing Zhao's helpless words, Xiang Qu also remembered what his father Xiang Yan said when he was parting.

Qin is strong and Chu is weak, and because of the usurpation of the king of Chu, many lords in Chu are dissatisfied. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for Chu to concentrate its forces against Qin.

As a result, when Wang Ben conquered Chu last year, he seized more than a dozen cities in Chu State, and Chu State lost even the old capital Chen Ying.

Chu State needs time to integrate internally.

Now that Lord Songyang entered Qin, he came with the sincerity of offering land from Chu to seek peace.

Thinking of this, the anger in Xiang Qu's heart gradually weakened, and he could only say with hatred: "I hate Jing Ke's assassination of Qin last year. His success was on the verge of failure. If he succeeded, the Qin State would be in chaos. How could our Chu State be reduced to such a state. People from the six countries said, The reason why Jing Ke failed was because of his deputy, Gao Tuo, who betrayed him, Li Zi is hateful, if I see this Gao Tuo, I will cut him into pieces on the spot!"

Hearing this, Jing Zhao's face changed suddenly, and he stared at Xiang Qu and said, "Qu, I can tell you. Entering Qin this time is a matter of the life and death of Chu, and you must not act on your will. You must obey my orders."

Xiang Qu frowned, but still nodded and said, "No."

Seeing that the other party agreed, Jing Zhao was relieved.

Chu Wang Xiangchu didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually handed over the task of deputy envoy to Xiang Qu, the son of Xiang Yan. This man is courageous, generous, and a good warrior, but as a deputy envoy, he lacks agility.

Fortunately, he also knows the generality of this, and he is not a pure warrior. Now that he has made the promise, there will be no troubles.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Jing Zhao asked with a smile, "Qu, I heard that your family is born with supernatural power?"

Hearing this, Xiang Qu smiled.

"That's right, that kid is only seven years old. But his strength is not small. He can already lift dozens of catties with one hand. He just likes to talk big, and even said that one day he will be able to lift the one-hundred-jin cauldron at home."

When Xiang Qu said this, he couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

In a daze, he thought of his brat's boastful appearance.

And, those strange double pupils.
