Mrs. Qin Xiangguo

113

Inside the embassy in Xianyang City.

The envoys of the State of Zhao were sweating profusely and chased out the door with the hem of their clothes on their heads. The person walking in front was Guo Kai, Zhao Wangyan's former playmate and current close minister, the emissary who called the wind and rain in Handan, so majestic.

The brat who took the lead in bullying Qin Wangzheng and making trouble for Xia Yangjun back then has grown up now.

It was precisely because of Zhao Wangyan's trust that he was sent to Qin.

"Your Excellency." The envoy of Zhao Guo said: "You can't stay in the post all the time, the king wants you to go to Xiayang!"

"I, I still need you to remind me?!"

Guo Kai stopped and glared at the envoy: "I have traveled far enough from Handan to Xianyang all the way, so let me rest for a few days?"

Envoy: "Since you are staying in Xianyang, you should go to meet King Qin."

Guo Kai: "What kind of King Qin did I see? I didn't come here for the diplomatic relations between the two countries!"

The envoy smiled wryly, and reminded with kind words: "Sir, even if you hide in the post house, it won't help. Xia Yangjun has recently gotten close to the Korean son Fei, and she can't wait to run to the post house every day."

Guo Kai: "..."

He just wanted to say what it means to angrily reprimand the envoys, he is a dignified official of the State of Zhao, even if he sees Lord Xia Yang, so what?But before Guo Kai could open his mouth, he heard a familiar voice from behind him in front of the gate of the post house——

"Go talk to the servant of Young Master Fei."

"Yes."

Guo Kaideng froze in place.

I haven't seen him for more than ten years, even if he forgets what Zhao Weizhen looks like, Guo Kai will never forget that Zhao Weizhen used this voice to call him a little bastard.

After all, the heaviest board he has ever endured and the best rice cake he has ever eaten are all made by her!

He turned his head following the sound, and saw a young lady with an extraordinary bearing standing under the steps of the post house.And Guo Kairen had already walked to the gate of the post house, if he turned back, it would be too late.

In desperation, he pushed Zhao Guo's envoy away and hid behind the open gate.

Envoy of Zhao State: "..."

Guo Kai hid in with his front foot, and Zhao Weizhen stepped into the post house with his back foot, just in time to bump into the envoy of Zhao Guo.

"Are you going out, sir?" Zhao Weizhen asked gently.

"Uh, yes." Zhao Guo's envoy hurriedly bowed his head and saluted: "The foreign minister will leave now."

"Let's go." Zhao Weizhen watched as the envoy was forced to leave. The moment she turned to look at the gate, Guo Kai's heart almost jumped out.

Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to notice him hiding behind the door.

After Zhao Guo's envoy left, Zhao Weizhen continued to move forward, leaving Guo Kai with a back.

Guo Kai let out a long breath.

Thank goodness!

When he was in Handan, Guo Kai offended Qin Wangzheng and Xia Yangjun to the bottom.Hearing that King Zhao wanted him to come to Qin to pick up old General Lianpo home, Guo Kai's face turned green.

But the king's order had to be obeyed, and Guo Kai had to enter Qin with a mournful face.

He only hoped that he would take this trip, and no former acquaintances would find out——

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Guo's family?"

Guo Kai:! !

Hearing the sudden sound above his head, Guo Kai was so frightened that Lao Gao jumped out of the ground.

He stepped back three or four steps in succession to stabilize his figure, and took a closer look, standing in front of him...uh...

He is a man in his 30s, who looks like a good-looking talent, but he is dressed in civilian clothes of Qin State.The point is that Guo Kai looked horizontally and vertically, and saw that his appearance was familiar.

"Mr. Guo's family doesn't remember." The other party said with a smile, "I'm Wei Xing."

Wei Xing...

Isn't that the butler of the Lu Mansion next to Zhao Weizhen? !

She didn't find herself, but her housekeeper found out, so what's the difference!

In particular, Wei Xing looked as excited as if he had met an old friend: "How did Mr. Lang come to Xianyang? My master doesn't even know, so I'm going to call my wife—"

"Hey! Steward Wei, wait!"

If it wasn't for Guo Kai's sharp eyes and quick hands to grab Wei Xing, he would really have yelled.

Guo Kai said in a hurry: "Don't make any noise, I was ordered by the king to enter Qin secretly!"

Wei Xing: "Oh...you are the middle man!"

Guo Kai: "Uh."

Might as well not say so!

"No, no," Guo Kai hurriedly waved his hand, "I still brought the envoys over, let me show you?"

"That's not necessary, I trust you sir."

Wei Xing looked Guo Kai up and down for a long time, and then said with emotion: "I didn't expect Mr. Lang to be so bold that he dared to come to Xianyang."

Guo Kai asked vigilantly, "What do you mean?"

Wei Xing scratched his head, and said inexplicably: "Who doesn't know that Mr. Lang is now the favorite minister of Zhao Wang, calling the wind and rain in Handan, so majestic! You just entered Qin Dynasty like this, and you don't have any guards around you, so you are not afraid of being detained by my wife." Are you asking King Zhao for a ransom?"

Guo Kai: "..."

How should I put it, it feels like this is really what Zhao Weizhen would do in his memory.

but--

How could Guo Kai admit cowardice in front of Qin people!

Especially when the person in front of him is just a commoner, just a housekeeper, he doesn't count.

After figuring this out, Guo Kai raised his eyebrows immediately, blew his beard and stared and said, "She dares! I'm here for diplomatic relations!"

Wei Xing: "Ah? But sir, didn't you just say that you entered Qin secretly?"

"Secretly entering Qin, can't we maintain diplomatic relations?" Guo Kaiyi said righteously: "The old general Lian Po fled before the battle, and it was you Qin Guo Xia Yang who took him to his fief. He was a criminal in Zhao Guo. You The state of Qin takes in criminal ministers, which is what it means to be enemies!"

Speaking of this, Guo Kai even fooled himself, and the more he talked, the more confident he became.

"Our Lord King still has a lot of people, and he doesn't care about the alliance between the two countries. He also thinks that he has won so many victories against General Lianpo, but his merits and demerits are worth it." Guo Kai snorted coldly: "The King Zhao sent me to Qin to I invite Old General Lian Po to go home!"

Wei Xing pretended to be surprised: "It turns out that Madam said that the envoy who came to Qin to receive General Lianpo was you, Mr. Lang!"

Guo Kai was startled, and then said angrily: "You knew about it a long time ago, and you still threaten me?"

Wei Xing laughed a few times, and he bowed and smiled flatteringly: "Master Lang has a lot, since that's the case, why don't I give him a ride? Anyway, the old general is in Xiayang, and it's my wife's fief, that is, the caravan Just send more carriages when going back and forth."

Guo Kai: "..."

Wei Xing: "Your Majesty doesn't want to go?"

Seeing that Guo Kai was silent, he immediately understood.Wei Xing shook his head and sighed exaggeratedly: "Understood, if it were me, I wouldn't dare to go. I heard from my wife that when Zhao and Wei countries went to war, it was Mr. Lang who persuaded King Zhao to change his generals and enjoy the generals." Replacing General Lian Po. The old general still broods over this matter!"

Guo Kai: "..."

Wei Xing: "We know exactly what kind of temper the old general has. It's not impossible for him to cut him off in a fit of anger when he sees Mr. Lang. Oh, it's not easy!"

What he said made Guo Kai feel that his neck started to hurt.

But after all, he stretched the bottom line of being a human being, and he was not afraid of losing control in front of Wei Xing.

Guo Kai cleared his throat and made a stern expression: "What are you talking about! I don't want to go because I think the old general is old. At his age, wouldn't it be better for him to take care of the old age? There is a king's order, but I can't bear it. It’s a dilemma, I can’t make up my mind.”

"Too."

Wei Xing didn't care what Guo Kai said to continue, and continued to mutter: "Your Majesty is so brave! But if it were me, I would definitely not dare to go. Isn't it just to convey the king's order and ask others to go there? Zhao Wang does Understand quickly, but, I think those who offended the old general in Handan back then will be finished."

Guo Kai pursed his lips tightly.

Wei Xing slapped his forehead: "It's too much to say, I have ordered my wife to go to visit Gongzi Fei, Mr. Lang can do it for himself."

Then Wei Xing hurriedly saluted, waved goodbye to Guo Kai, turned around and ran to the post house.

He left, leaving Guo Kai alone, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

This, the manager is right!

Not to mention that Lian Po directly chopped him off in a fit of anger.It is said that Lian Po returned to Zhao State and took charge of the army again. Wouldn't he be dead?

No, absolutely not.

Guo Kai hesitated for several days, and after Wei Xing said this, he immediately made a decision in his heart: he was determined not to let Lian Po return to Zhao!

As for how to reply to the king's order?

It's about himself, Guo Kai's brains are spinning fast.That is, when he returned to his residence from the gate of the posthouse, he had already come up with an idea.

As soon as he stepped into the door, Guo Kai called his personal attendant and conveyed all the talismans, documents, and King Zhao's instructions: "Just say that you are an envoy sent to greet Old General Lian Po."

The attendant was taken aback for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Master, do you really want to invite Lian Po back to Handan?"

Guo Kai: "Are you stupid? You have to go, otherwise you won't be able to explain. Why don't you just say that Lian Po is too old to lead the army to fight? Get out of here, and you are limited to five days to come and go!"

…………

……

A few months later, in Xiayang City.

Old General Lian Po squeezed the documents in his hands tightly and took a deep breath.

The king of Zhao sent envoys to greet Lian Po, which made the old general feel hopeful—he was from Zhao, and he left in a hurry and breathless, so he naturally hoped to go back one day.

Therefore, when meeting with the envoy, the old general specially hosted a banquet to show his appetite.Then put on the armor and mount the horse to practice, showing that his body is still strong and healthy.

The envoy had a happy chat with Lian Po, but after returning, there was no more news.

Until the letter from the old Ministry of Handan gave Lian Po the answer.

The words on this flimsy paper are concise, but they touch the heart.

"The envoy returned to Zhao and reported to the king that the general was too old to be used. The king remembered that General Lian had made great contributions to Zhao and would not pursue treason any more. I hope the general will live and retire in Xiayang in peace."

What is "the general is too old to be used"?

When Lian Po saw these eight characters, his mind went blank for a while.

But when he took a deep breath, Deng Ji understood.

Back then, it was Guo Kai who persuaded King Zhao to change his general with slanderous words. Now that he knew he had offended him, how could he just watch King Zhao take him back?

How upright he is to fail to figure out the key point, and still have hope for it!

In a fit of anger, General Lian Po simply threw the paper out of his hand.

"Two bastards!" The old general scolded, "Zhao Guo will surely perish at the hands of that bastard Zhao Yan!"

"General, General..."

The old general was still cursing, but his old servant came over worriedly: "General, Mr. Xia Yang is here, and I'm here to visit you."

"Meng Kai is here?"

Even though he was still angry, Lian Po was also taken aback: "Quickly ask her to come in."

The old waiter stepped back.

As soon as he brought Zhao Weizhen in, Lian Po quickly regained his composure.

As a man of temperament, Lian Po's temper is quick to come and go.

No, he can't be bothered about it.The old general thought sarcastically: If Zhao Guo is so angry at everything, how can he live to such an old age? Go down to accompany Mr. Pingyuan sooner!

And Meng Kai didn't come early or late, but he came with the letters from the old department...

Lian Po quickly understood the purpose of the other party's visit.

After a while, the waiter brought Zhao Weizhen in.

It's been a few years since we've seen each other, but Zhao Weizhen is still the same as when we reunited in Wei Guo in the early years.The lively and clever little woman in the past is now Xia Yangjun under one person, but Lian Po feels that her appearance has hardly changed.

That's probably true for young people at heart.

"Meng Kai, tell me the truth."

Lian Po didn't regard Zhao Weizhen as an outsider, and directly threw the letter in his hand: "Did you write this matter?"

Zhao Weizhen quickly glanced at the letter.

She didn't respond.

The woman in front of her just solemnly raised her hands and saluted Lian Po as a very respectful gentleman.

Zhao Weizhen bowed deeply, buried his head in his left and right hands, and said earnestly: "Meng Kai invites the general again, and hopes that the general will enter Qin and lead the army for Qin!"

Lian Po said angrily: "Is there any handwriting by you?!"

"General!"

Only then did Zhao Weizhen raise his head, and said bluntly: "Even if Meng Kai has great abilities, he can still influence what Zhao Chen thinks? They don't want Zhao Guohao, so why should Meng Wei go to kill courtiers on behalf of King Zhao?"

The general with snow-white hair remained silent for a long time.

He also had nothing to refute Zhao Weizhen—yes, it was the Zhao people who told Zhao Wang that Zhao Guo's veterans were not available.

The change of generals before the battle did not make Lian Po disheartened, and the treacherous minister's slander could still make Lian Po angry.What made the old general really stop thinking was Zhao Weizhen's rhetorical question.

Such a monarch, such a prince, why does he place his hope on it?

"That's it."

Lian Po finally waved his hand, and said helplessly: "The reason why the ruler and ministers have been divorced for a long time is that he can do tricks. Otherwise, I don't believe that any trickster in the world can make Qin Wangzheng suspect Meng Wei of you. I shouldn't be angry at you. Meng Wei, this is clearly the fault of King Zhao."

After finishing speaking, Old General Lian Po sat back.

"Lian Po did not accept Meng Kai's love for nothing." Lian Po sighed, then raised his head, his face full of gullies showed a solemn look: "Meng Kai respects Lian Po and treats Lian Po kindly, Lian Po is not talented, and only this Reciprocate with martial arts. I promise you to fight for Qin."

Zhao Weizhen took a breath.

Her clear eyes suddenly lit up: "General?!"

But Lian Po suddenly raised his hand: "Don't be too eager to be happy, I only fight once for Qin. If Qin attacks South Korea, I can lead the army. After a victory, the old man will leave Qin."

He closed his eyes, and then laughed helplessly: "When I was in Wei State, Meng Kai said that if I wanted to leave, Meng Kai would send me to travel around the six countries. Does it still count now?"
