Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 148 Asking for help from the six royal families
Chapter 148 Asking for help from the six royal families
Xianyang City is divided into three parts.

To the north is the imperial city built in Qin Xiaogong's era. Although it occupies a small area, it has an ancient and solemn style. Looking from a distance, it only looks extremely sacred.On both sides of the imperial city are Tingwei's Mansion, Guowei's Mansion, Prime Minister's Mansion and other yamen, as well as the residences of princes, ministers, and royal family and nobles.

The south is divided into two parts. The East Market is the largest trading market in the world, with tens of thousands of gold worth of goods going in and out every day.

But the opposite house to the west is gorgeous, with high walls and strict guards, like a huge cage.Those who live here are the families of the six kings.

In history, Du Mu wrote an "Ode to Efang Palace" to praise the grand occasion of this magnificent palace, but in fact, no construction was started on this palace at all.

The royal families of the Six Kingdoms all live in Xianyang City, and they take care of themselves for food and lodging, which Yingzheng will not directly provide.Therefore, the daily life of the six kings' families is extremely difficult, and many people are even worse than an ordinary farmer outside.

Yao Jia was well aware of the current situation of these people, and it was indeed not an easy task to mobilize them.

Just thinking about it, the carriage stopped.

"My lord, we've arrived at King Zhao's Palace."

Yao Jia straightened his clothes and got out of the carriage.

As for the families of the six kings, Zhao and Wei are probably the ones who hate Qin the most.

Wei State, since the time of Wei Wenhou, Wu Qi led the army to attack Qin State continuously, causing Qin State to lose most of its territory and almost perish.After experiencing Shang Yang's reform, the first thing Qin's monarchs dealt with was the old enemy of Wei.

The national strength of the Wei State declined greatly, and before the country was destroyed, the Wei State was actually already dying.

As for Zhao State, during the period of King Zhao Wuling, the two countries also experienced a honeymoon period of friendship.However, as King Zhao of Qin succeeded to the throne, the offensive against Zhao also intensified. For more than a hundred years, the results of the war between the two countries almost represented the entire trend in the late Warring States Period.

"Open the door!"

A soldier had already opened the door, and Yao Jia walked in with his men.

Today's King Zhao is no longer the puppet in Guo Kai's hands, but has become his distant brother, Zhao Ping's cousin Zhao Mu.

After learning that Yao Jia had brought him, Zhao Miao had no intention of coming out to greet him. He sat alone in the main hall, constantly wiping the saber that had been handed down by successive kings of the Zhao Kingdom.

"How is King Zhao?"

Yao Jia walked in with a smile. Even though he was a big blow as soon as he entered the door, Yao Jia didn't care if he asked for help from others.

"Master Ting Wei, don't you know our situation?"

Yao Jia knew that Zhao Miao had a lot of resentment towards Qin, so he didn't go into it. He just smiled and said, "Among the six kingdoms, Qin and Zhao fought countless battles, and His Majesty the First Emperor hated Zhao deeply. Afterwards, His Majesty did not kill them all, but let you live in Xianyang, and enjoy everything more than the other six kings."

Zhao Miao sneered.

"Based on your words, do I still have to thank Ying Zheng for not being able to do it? My Zhao Kingdom has been a great power for hundreds of years, and it was finally destroyed by Ying Zheng. It is a pity that I, Zhao Miao, have no intentions. My big Zhao is as stable as Mount Tai."

Yao Jia seemed unmoved, and continued, "Dare to ask King Zhao, who are the Xiongnu?"

Zhao Mu frowned and said, "Why are you asking this? The Huns are our enemies in the northern border of Zhao country. Everyone in the world knows it, so why bother asking."

"To tell you the truth, King Zhao, I, Yao Jia, came here today to plead on behalf of my son, the Kingdom of Qin, to ask King Zhao to lend a helping hand to jointly resist the invading Hun army."

Surprise flashed in Zhao Miao's eyes.

"What are you talking about, have the Huns reached Xianyang?"

Although Yao Jia didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that it was a fact.

After getting the confirmation, Zhao Miao suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to the east continuously: "Ancestors, have you heard that? Qin is about to perish, Qin is about to perish! You have lived for more than a hundred years. They never hit the city of Xianyang, but I didn't expect the Huns to do it."

After saying that, Zhao Mu said with a look of laughing: "Qin's hundreds of thousands of troops can't even stop a small Xiongnu. It's a pity that I, General Li Mu of Zhao, are not here, otherwise we can't measure that small Xiongnu." The Huns did not dare to make such a mistake."

"King Zhao is wrong! The reason why Qin State is at a disadvantage is not that our army was defeated, but because the enemy army was too cunning. His Majesty the First Emperor led his army to the north and defeated the Xiongnu repeatedly. The Xiongnu Shanyu Touman had no choice but to turn around Direction, sneak attack on my land in Longxi. Now I am following the order of the eldest son Fusu to mobilize the families of the six kings to resist the Xiongnu. If the Zhao State does not follow, when the country is in trouble, my Qin State will not do anything to you, but, When the city is broken, it is difficult to guarantee what will happen to the people of your country."

Zhao Miao's face suddenly became gloomy.

Qin and Zhao are feuds, and Qin is in trouble. Logically, it is when Zhao is happy.

But the trouble is, they are now in Xianyang City.

As the saying goes, there are no eggs under the cover of the nest. If Xianyang is captured by the Huns, they will not escape death.

"If you want me to make a move, Qin Guo must promise me three things."

"Don't say it's three, even if it's five or ten, I believe it's not difficult."

"First, I'm going back to Handan to pay homage to the ancestor's mausoleum."

"Yes, but it must be escorted by my Daqin soldiers."

Zhao Miao did not object, but continued.

"Secondly, I want you to release some of the nobles of our country Zhao, and I can guarantee that they will never turn against you."

Yao Jia frowned slightly and said, "I dare not say this, it needs to be decided by the young master and the ministers."

"Third, I want to be alone."

"Man, who do you want?"

"Zhao Gao, I want Zhao Gao's head. As long as you give me Zhao Gao's head, I will naturally send all the disciples to the city to help out. I will also try to persuade the kings of other countries to join hands."

Although Zhao Gao is just a servant, to the people of the Zhao clan, he is the number one villain.

Yingzheng broke the country, and the people surnamed Zhao did not commit any crimes; but Zhao Gao, a small CRRC government order, slaughtered people surnamed Zhao wantonly. If it was not for the pity of the heavens, I am afraid that the Zhao family would have to be killed by him.

Yao Jia frowned slightly when he heard this, sighed and shook his head.

"disagree?"

"It's not that I don't agree, it's that I can't do it."

"Could it be that King Qin would rather lose Xianyang than keep a little eunuch?" Zhao Miao looked a little strange, looking at Yao Jia in front of him, a little excited.

"That's not the case. The key point is that Zhao Gao is not in Xianyang now. King Zhao doesn't know that he has been transferred to Handan by His Majesty as the county guard. Even if I promise you now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it in a short time."

Zhao Miao spread his hands: "There is no way, as soon as I see Zhao Gao's head, I will immediately help. As for how to do it, it depends on how you do things."
