Chapter 69 Powerful Ministers

It was raining continuously at night.

In Zhao Jun's camp, soldiers wore coir raincoats and walked between the roads.

In the commander's camp, the charcoal fire was about to go out in the middle of the night, and the cold tentacles slowly invaded.

Ahh!

Hu Zhe woke up from a nightmare, and suddenly felt a chill invade his body.

"Come on!"

Hu Zhe wanted to ask his attendants to add charcoal to the fire, but after shouting for a long time, there was no movement outside the tent.

The sound of the rain outside the tent became more and more urgent, as if it wanted to cover up all sounds.

Just when Hu Zhe wanted to go to the ground to urge him, the charcoal fire in the tent spontaneously ignited without fuel, emitting light green flames, and it was as dark as hell.

Just when Hu Zhe was frightened, a voice awakened the fear in his heart.

"General Hulu!"

Hu Zhe turned his head abruptly, and there was a young man sitting behind the handsome table, fiddling with the empty box containing the military amulets on the table.

"The general is really cautious. He actually hid the soldier talisman so tightly."

"Zhao Shuang!"

Hu Zhe had met Zhao Shuang several times in Handan. Although the young man grew up very fast, his body shape was absolutely correct.

In the tents with scattered black feathers, in the shadows where the green light cannot shine, it seems that there are people's figures surging.

There was no expression on Zhao Shuang's face, but Hu Zhe saw it in great horror.

"what do you want to do?"

The figure galloped towards, and Mo Crow's feather blade was already approaching Hu Zhe's neck.With just one swipe, a life will be lost.

"You want to kill me, but also ask me what I want to do?"

"Do you have evidence?" Hu Zhe's tone was strong, "If you don't have evidence, you kill your colleagues without authorization. Do you know the consequences?"

"That makes sense!"

Zhao Shuang tossed the box lightly and received it again, with a smile on his face.

"But the problem is, even if you die, who will know that I did it. After all, in the eyes of the world, I am still kidnapped by Baiyue thieves, and my life and death are unknown."

"You should know this best!"

Hu Zhe was terrified in his heart, but he forced himself to be calm on his face.

"No, you won't kill me until you get the soldier talisman!"

Without a soldier talisman, there is no way to mobilize the more than ten thousand Zhao troops.The soldiers and horses in this camp are not like Lian Yunfei's cavalry, they are Zhao Shuang's private soldiers, and they gallop north and south according to his orders.

"What do you think I left the soldier talisman for? Even if you have the tiger talisman bestowed by King Zhao, so what?"

"What do you mean?"

Hu Zhe opened his eyes wide, only to see Zhao Shuang clapping his hands.The tent door was lifted, and a gust of cold wind accompanied by rain blew in.

The rain splashed on his face, and Hu Zhe became sober in an instant.

Outside the tent, the captains of the battalion came in one by one and knelt down on the ground.

The man hadn't removed his armor, his sword hadn't been sheathed, and the raindrops fell on the ground, obviously waiting outside the tent for a long time.There was no expression on their faces, and they knelt down in front of the handsome case.

"You you!"

Hu Zhe looked at Zhao Shuang in surprise. Even if he didn't have a soldier talisman, as long as he could get the support of all the middle and high-level generals in the camp, he could still mobilize the army of more than ten thousand.

However, compared to the means and purpose of doing all this, Hu Zhe will be more surprised by the matter itself.

A look of astonishment appeared on the tough guy's face. He looked at Zhao Shuang and exclaimed.

"You know what you're doing? You're conspiring against me!"

No matter how much the party is united against dissidents, Hu Zhe never thought of rebelling and betraying Zhao Guo.

But what the person in front of him has done has surpassed Hu Zhe's imagination.

"The general is serious. I never thought about becoming King Zhao."

"It's not you, it's Pang Nuan! Wang Shangnian, he is an old minister of King Wuling, entrusted with important use, and awarded to the general. But he actually wants to plot rebellion!"

Zhao Shuang smiled, seemingly amused, and asked all the captains under Shuai's case.

"Did you say the general wants to rebel?"

"The general is loyal to the country, how can he have the heart to rebel?"

"The general is the hero of our great Zhao, and he has worked hard and made great achievements. He is a model for our soldiers."

With all the praise, Hu Zhe had a familiar feeling, as if he had returned to the court of Zhao State and saw the scene when Guo Kai exercised power.

The whole court agreed, and there was no rebellion.The ministers bowed their heads, and the party members united.

It was at that time that Hu Zhe saw what it means to be under one person and over ten thousand people, and to deter powerful officials, so he turned to Guo Kai from then on.

But now, although this small tent is not as good as Handan King's Palace, and the captains are not as prominent as those Shangqing and doctors, but the shock given to Hu Zhe is far more than that of Guo Kai.

Because, the boy after this handsome case is far younger than Guo Kai.

People in the world only know that Guo Kai forced Lian Po away with a word, but Hu Zhe understands that Guo Kai is not a villain who can only slander.

At least, Hu Zhe has seen his ability to govern the country with his own eyes.

"The world always thinks that a gentleman is inferior to a villain. Because a gentleman always keeps the rule in his heart and dare not disobey. But sometimes, it's not because a gentleman doesn't know what to do."

"It's just because of what you do and what you don't do."

The oily green fire in the tent became more ferocious, and then disappeared with a rapid crackling sound.

What Hu Zhe could feel was the chilling blade around his neck, and Zhao Shuang's meaningful voice.

"But once a gentleman puts down the ruler in his heart. If he competes for power, even a villain is worthy!"

Zhao Shuang smiled, stood up, and slowly left the tent.

Hu Zhe could feel that the sharp blade that had been around his neck had gone away.

The heavy rain continued outside the tent, and the wind and rain blew again, and all the figures retreated.

It was extraordinarily cold in the tent, Hu Zhe kept the posture just now, neither sitting up straight nor lying down, his whole body seemed like a statue.

After a long time, he seemed to remember something, and took out the tiger talisman bestowed by King Zhao from under his pillow.

His sharp eyes stared at it, but there was only a wry smile.

The gate of the camp opened quietly, and Mo Ya followed Zhao Shuang under an umbrella.

"Will he be obedient?"

"No matter how stupid a person is, he should know that this turmoil cannot be easily involved."

Zhao Shuang sighed leisurely, watching the dark clouds covering the moon, and the darkness lingering in the sky.

"Having taken control of the situation, you don't seem happy."

"Yang Hu lived in Lu as a powerful sycophant, and when he entered Zhao, he was a capable minister. Today's Zhao State is far stronger than Yang Hu's time, but the king has already lost the demeanor of his ancestors, and his ministers can't stop taking power. Although strong, but not enough It’s just a bigger country of Lu!”

"What's even more regrettable is that the gentleman let go of the ruler in his heart and has no hesitation, but after all, he is trying to restore a dream that has long been lost."

"Since you know it's irreversible, why keep going?"

Mo Ya looked at Zhao Shuang in front of him with a deep expression.

Zhao Shuang smiled and raised his head.

"Heroes can reverse the situation, but we still have to leave a retreat after all."

In the dark night, lightning suddenly streaked across the sky.The mighty force of heaven and earth galloping past, at that moment, brightened the entire earth.

On the cliff not far away, a woman wearing a spider mask stood quietly, her eyes flicked across a long distance in the darkness, as if she had a sense, she looked over.

At this moment, thunder rumbled.
