C125

"Oh, so that's how it is," Lord Chu nodded in realization after hearing Chun Shen's words. He then gave a thumbs up and praised Chun Shen, "The four nobles of the Battle Country are renowned throughout the world. In my opinion, Chun Shenjun should be the leader of the four nobles!"

"Your Majesty is too kind. I, Chunshen, have only done my best."

"Hehe, not only is Chun Shenjun resourceful, he is also humble, which is a rare occurrence," King Chu said with a smile. However, when he looked at Chun Shen's slightly dirty clothes and smelled them a little sour, he realized that Chun Shen had been rushing back to Chu Ying from Qi Kingdom. He did not even bother to clean himself, so he pointed at Chun Shen's clothes and laughed, "Chun Shenjun has been working hard all the way.

After Lord Chu said this, Chun Shen finally reacted. He looked a little embarrassed, and bowed to Lord Chu, "This old official shall take his leave first." With that, Chun Shen slowly left Lord Chu's chamber.

After Chunshen left, King Chu wanted to sit down and find some beauties from the imperial harem, some fine wine and bamboo, to celebrate this joyous event where he had obtained an appointment. However, just as he was about to speak to the attendant, the attendant took a step forward and reported to him, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Li Yuan has been waiting outside the palace for a long time. He said that he has something important to report to the King."

However, Li Yuan, as the Prime Minister of Chu, if he did not call Li Yuan over then he would appear to be a frivolous person, coupled with the fact that Li Yuan's biological sister, Li Yan, was his most beloved concubine. Thus, this Li Yuan was not only the Prime Minister of Chu, but also the uncle of Chu, so even though King Chu was a little unhappy in his heart, he did not dare to neglect this relative of the King of Chu, so he could only speak to the attendant, "Come in, let him in."

After hearing Feng Xuan's words, Li Yuan tiptoed his way in softly. He occasionally raised his head to look outside the hall. Seeing him in such a state, Lord Chu questioned, "Why is Imperial Uncle rushing over so early to meet with the widows? What is the purpose of this visit?"

Li Yuan was looking around him when he suddenly heard King Chu ask about him. He immediately came back to his senses and bowed to King Chu as he replied, "Reporting to your majesty, Li Yuan came this time because he has something to discuss with the King."

"Can't we wait until the Oligarchs are in court? Why did you barge straight into the inner chambers of the oligarchs? " Lord Chu was a little impatient, but he continued to ask patiently.

"Your Majesty, this matter concerns His Majesty the Emperor. That's why Li Yuan didn't hesitate to come and report the crime of disturbing His Majesty."

"Oh? "What could be so important that would require Imperial Uncle to go through so much trouble?"

"Your Majesty, your subject has heard that Chun Shenjun has returned to Chu Ying that very night to report to Your Majesty about the matter of the Accomplishment of the Qi Kingdom. Is this true?"

"Hehe," When Lord Chu heard Li Yuan's probing question, he couldn't help but laugh. "Uncle Guo just looked around for a long time. He clearly saw Chun Shenjun leave, why did he come to verify this with the widows?"

"Oh, this, your servant only felt that the back of the person who left was a bit familiar, very similar to that of Chun Shenjun, but I didn't dare to make a presumptuous judgement, so I asked the king for confirmation." When Li Yuan saw that he had already been seen through by King Chu, he could only find an excuse to cover it up.

"Alright, let's not talk about this for now. Chun Shenjun has indeed returned to Chu Ying. The Qi Kingdom has already agreed to reject Qin Zhusu, so this alliance of six nations can be easily found by This King. " As Lord Chu spoke, he thought about how he would soon be able to command the other six kingdoms. He was overjoyed.

"Congratulations your majesty, congratulations your majesty." When Li Yuan saw King Chu's expression, he immediately went along with the flow and flattered him.

"Imperial Uncle, you just said that you have an important matter to attend to. What is it? Why haven't I listened to you for so long?" Who knew that Lord Chu did not take up Li Yuan's flattery, but asked him a question instead.

Li Yuan turned to the main topic at hand and said, "The Qi Kingdom has already agreed to take over the throne, but I don't know when the king will be able to ascend to the throne and command the six kingdoms to rule the world."

"This matter has yet to be decided. We will decide it after discussing it with Chun Shenjun tomorrow morning." Lord Chu very casually replied to Li Garden.

"I'm afraid that this subject will have many troubles. Since the king knows that the Yan Kingdom's ambassador has come to my Chu Ying, he has repeatedly used cunning words to ridicule my Chu Emperor. He has humiliated my Chu Emperor's official to such an extent, that is to say, he is cunning and treacherous." Now that he and that Chun Shenjun had agreed to succeed, he would give the throne to the Emperor. This was probably another trap set up by that Yan Ambassador. At that time, if he goes back on his word and the King has no proof, what can't be done about it? When Li Yuan saw that King Chu did not think too much about the future, he reminded him.

When Lord Chu heard Li Yuan's words, he seemed to be enlightened as he nodded. He then asked Li Yuan, "Uncle Guo's words are reasonable, the widowed has indeed overlooked this point, but I don't know if Uncle Gu has any strategies to teach the few?"

This subject came here to assist His Majesty in ascending to the throne earlier, "Li Yuan heard the question and was sure that Lord Chu had already listened to it, so he gave a solemn oath to express his loyalty," Since Your Majesty fears that the king will cause trouble for the king, why not make the decision first and make the city a reality before the Yan Ambassador discovers it, when that's the case, I'm afraid that there will be no other choice but to go back on my words.

"Oh? What wonderful way does Uncle Guo have to make it a fact for an oligarch to take over the position of a general? " When Lord Chu heard Li Yuan's words, he immediately became interested and hastily asked Li Yuan.

When Li Yuan saw that King Chu was already burning with anxiety, he couldn't help but feel proud of himself. He knew that if he succeeded in this plan, Lord Chu would definitely listen to his every word. Even if Chunshen had sent a mission to the Qi Kingdom, his achievements would still fall far short of his own. It turned out that he had already heard that Chunshen had already returned to Chu Ying. He was afraid that Chunshen would be respected this time because he wanted to let Lord Chu take over the position of the Emperor, which would threaten his position as the Prime Minister. Thus, he thought of a way to take over this position.

As he thought of this, he started to feel proud, and said to Lord Chu, "This subject has a plan to ensure that Your Majesty will be able to obtain the position of the Emperor as soon as possible. The King immediately used the name of Yan envoy Jing Ke to issue an edict to the other five kingdoms, saying that the six kingdoms' grand plan had been completed, inviting their respective elite troops to Chu Ying to join the alliance. When the elites of the six nations arrive, the king, as their host, will naturally lead Yan Ambassador Jing Ke to announce to them that you are the true subordinate of these six nations. At that time, even if Jing Ke wants to go back on his word, he will have no way of doing so. "

After Lord Chu heard Li Yuan's words, he was suddenly enlightened and praised, "Uncle Guo is truly deep in thought. With this, why should I worry that the authority of the six kingdoms not belong to me?!"

After a round of praise from King Chu, they smiled at each other and started dancing proudly. After this monarch and this official had set up this scheme, the mutual trust between them had become more harmonious due to their collusion.

King Chu quickly accepted Li Yuan's premeditated plan. He then used the name of Jing Ke to send a letter to the other five empires, inviting them to send their armies to Chu Ying to form a blood alliance. The letter was passed to the six monarchs. Han, Wei, and Yan countries had visited Jing Ke before, and had solved many of their difficulties for these countries. Therefore, since their benefactor was ordered to send troops, it was naturally no problem for them to do so. In the spring of this year, the Qi state declared that they would buy the land for a large sum of money and win the war. However, they had also convinced Qi King Jian about the matter of Zhuang Gong digging up the land for the earth and the earth, so the Qi state could not refuse to send troops. Only the State of Zhao, after Li Mu's defeat, the State of Zhao in Handan had also been captured by the State of Qin. Only the State of Zhao, after Li Mu's defeat, the State of Zhao in Handan had been captured by the State of Qin.

Fortunately, after the fall of Zhao, Guo Kai, one of Zhao Qian's villains, had left the country due to fear of Zhao Qian's anger, as he had not yet received the wealth and glory that Wang Jian had promised. However, he also knew that Zhao Qian was a coward, so it probably wouldn't be easy for him to convince Chu Ying to join the alliance. Therefore, when he received the letter from King Chu, he thought of a person who could persuade Zhao Qian to join the alliance, but the problem was that the person he thought of had already returned to his hometown. If he wanted to find Zhao Qian, it would be extremely difficult for him to do so.

One day, just as Sima Shang was frowning because he could not find the person he was looking for, a servant suddenly reported, "General, there is a scholar outside the manor. He claims to be a man of great power, and he says that the general's worries have been unsettled recently. He's here to relieve the general's worries."

Upon hearing the servant's report, Sima Shang felt very baffled. He had just received a letter from Lord Chu and had been plotting how to find the person. How could a mere Confucian Scholar be able to predict his worries? However, that person could actually guess that he was in a predicament. He must be an otherworldly expert, so after a moment of hesitation, he immediately said to the servant, "Quickly bring me there to take a look."

"Okay." The attendant acknowledged him, then led Sima Shang to the entrance of the manor.

When he reached the entrance of the mansion, Sima Shang saw a man standing in the distance. He was dressed in a gentleman's robe with long sleeves and a jade belt. He looked like a Confucian scholar. The servant only said, "It's him." After Sima Shang understood what he meant, he waved his hand to allow the servant to leave first. He walked up to the scholar and cupped his fists as he greeted, "I am Sima Shang.

That person originally had his back to Sima Shang, but when he heard someone speak behind him, he immediately turned around. Seeing Sima Shang, he also bowed and replied, "General Sima, you're too courteous, I'm just a commoner. I'm not an expert, so there's no need for you to pay your respects."

When Sima Shang saw the man turn around, he looked him up and down carefully. His life was not even five feet long, and his appearance was average. However, out of politeness, he continued to patiently ask that person, "I wonder who mister is and why you have come to my Sima Manor to teach me?"

The man was in no hurry to reply to Sima Shang's question. He merely chuckled and said, "If my guess is correct, the general has been anxiously searching for someone these days. I wonder where that person is?"

When Sima Shang heard that this person had predicted that he would go looking for someone, he replied in surprise, "That's right."

"This man once had 3,000 customers, and was also one of the most important officials of the State of Zhao. He could be said to be below one person, above tens of thousands of people, and he also risked his life to protect Handan, finally allowing Handan to escape from the hands of the Qin army." Seeing Sima Shang nod his head, the man continued calmly.

Of the three thousand diners under his wing, only the four noblemen of the Warring States had the ability to do so; under one man, in power above all others, there had to be a country serving him; defending Zhao with all his might, helping Handan, and becoming a loyal man praised by the people, one of the four noblemen of the Warring States, the former prime minister of the State of Zhao, must win against Zhao. And the person Sima Shang was looking for with all his effort was precisely this famous official of the State of Zhao, Zhao Sheng. Only he had the ability and ability to convince Zhao Wang and Zhao Qian. However, Sima Shang absolutely did not expect that this unassuming scholar would be able to easily guess his thoughts. Unconsciously, he was greatly shocked as his mouth gaped open. He hastily asked the scholar, "Who exactly is your esteemed self?"

"I am an ordinary customer of the Pingyuan Kingdom. It was only the twentieth person that the Pingyuan Kingdom sent to the Chu Country. Who he is and who he is doesn't matter. I have only come here today to resolve the general's predicament. " That person seemed to be more at ease with Sima Shang's questioning. He didn't mention his identity at all. He only talked about the matter of Sima Shang seeking someone.

When Sima Shang saw that the man neither said nor forced him to do so, he could only go along with his idea. He continued, "Well, since that mister came to help Sima Shang find someone, where is Master Ping Yuan now?"

"When my Lord was in the State of Zhao, there were three occasions when he went to settle the matter. He had given his position to Tian Dan An and Yu Qing, the Marquis of Ten Thousand Families. The last time he returned, he had settled in the mountains and plains. "Now that I think about it, it's already been over forty years. It's just a pity that the famed tyrant of my generation has now disappointed General Si Ma." That person's expression was originally calm and unperturbed. However, as he spoke to this point, he secretly shook his head and sighed.

When Sima Shang saw the situation, he asked again in confusion, "What do you mean? "Could it be that Lord Plains Lord, he ??"
