"Xu..."

A long sound of horse control sounded, and a carriage stopped in front of the palace in Handan, Zhao State.

"Sir, we're here."

Following a reminder from the driver, the curtains of the carriage danced lightly, and a young man slowly stepped out of the carriage.

Looking at the palaces standing in front of him, and recalling this trip to Qi, a trace of hesitation appeared on the young man's face.

Before the young man could make his next move, the palace people who had been waiting for a long time in front of the palace gate immediately came to greet him.

"Meet the young master."

The hesitation on his face disappeared, and when the young man faced these palace people, his former dignity returned to his face.

"Where is Brother Wang?"

"Young Master, the king is already waiting for you in the palace."

While talking, all the palace people took half a step back and made a welcoming gesture.

"Master, please."

After looking at the palace people who came to greet him, and then at the Zhao Palace in front of him, the young man exhaled softly, and then strode forward.

Not long after, under the guidance of these palace officials, the young man came to the main hall where King Zhao Yu was staying.

"Brother, please pay homage to Brother Wang."

"Brother, you don't have to be polite."

Seeing the young man, or should be called Gongzi Cheng, appearing in front of him, Zhao Yu, who was talking to someone in the main hall, stood up quickly.

In three or two steps, Zhao Yu had already arrived in front of Gong Zicheng, stretched out his hands to help him up.

Zhao Yu said aloud while helping him back: "Brother Cheng, Linzi and our party have worked hard for you this time."

"My younger brother is the king's servant, and he is the descendant of the late king and the blood of the Zhao family."

"In order to wash away the shame of Zhao State and to avenge the death of my father, the king, I have no choice but to shoulder my responsibilities."

As Gong Zicheng spoke, he looked at Zhao Yu. At this moment, his eyes were full of determination.

"Brother Wang, don't mention the word hard work again."

"good."

Cheng Cheng's right hand patted Gong Zicheng's shoulder vigorously several times. Zhao Yu's face showed indescribable relief.

If the Zhao family's bloodline is like that of Young Master, then why worry about the Zhao family not being prosperous?

If the ministers of Zhao State are all like the prince, then how can Zhao State not be strong?

Zhao Yu's right hand went all the way down the young master's arm, grabbed his right hand and walked towards his throne.

After pressing Gong Zicheng beside him, Zhao Yu returned to his position.

With a smile on his face, Zhao Yu asked Young Master Cheng: "Brother Cheng, what is the attitude of Qi State?"

"Brother Wang, on this trip to Qi State, I met Qi State Shang Qi Zou Ji in Linzi."

"Through Zou Ji's arrangement, my brother met the Marquis of Qi in Gaotang..."

When Gong Zicheng was describing this trip to Qi, Zhao Yu had been listening very carefully.

Especially when Gong Zicheng mentioned Gaotang, Zhao Yu's brows frowned a little.

But soon Zhao Yu's brows relaxed, and his attention was completely returned to Gong Zicheng.

"What is the Marquis of Qi's attitude towards Zhao's proposal?"

"Brother Wang, both the Marquis of Qi and Shangqing Zou Ji are very interested in the proposal of Zhao State to unite with Qi State and Chu State to send troops to attack Wei State."

"only……"

"Just what?"

Facing Zhao Yu's questioning and remembering the conditions proposed by Qi Houtian Yinqi, the expression on Gong Zicheng's face seemed a little embarrassed.

"The Marquis of Qi seems to still have doubts about our country, Zhao. He hopes that Brother Wang will go to Qi in person to discuss with him face to face."

"Not only that, in order to avoid being spied on by Wei's eyes and ears, the Marquis of Qi hopes that Brother Wang can only bring a few followers."

"Your Majesty, you must not do this."

That is to say, just after the conditions for the young master to become a general of Qi were explained, a voice of resistance suddenly sounded in the hall.

Looking in the direction of the voice, it was Fei Yi who was now a high official in the State of Zhao.

Since leading the army to the timely rescue four years ago, Fei Yi, a young general, has been appreciated by King Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu could be said to have given the greatest trust to the man who helped him ascend to the throne. He handed over the important task of guarding the palace to Fei Yi, which was related to his own safety.

Facts have proved that Fei Yi also lived up to Zhao Yu's trust. He used his calmness and sophistication to make Zhao Yu rely more and more on him.

This is the reason why Fei Yi can become the senior official of Zhao State and can talk to Zhao Yu alone today.

It was this mature and prudent Fei Yi who was the first to stand up and oppose the conditions proposed by Qi State.

"I heard a saying not long ago that a gentleman would not stand behind a dangerous wall. A gentleman is like this, not to mention that the king is also responsible for the weight of a country."

"He went to Qi with only a few followers. He clearly placed his life on the kindness of Qi people."

"Your Majesty, please don't forget how Duke Xianggang of Song Dynasty was captured by King Chu Cheng."

Fei Yi's words made Zhao Yu unable to help but fall into thinking.

If you bring only a few followers with you, it is indeed like sending a sheep into the wolf's mouth.

There have been many conflicts between Zhao and Qi before. Once Qi takes this opportunity to imprison itself, Zhao will definitely suffer the greatest loss.

But without Qi as an ally, this time we would send troops together to attack Wei...

A look of embarrassment appeared on Zhao Yu's face, and the fingers that he loosened and tightened from time to time showed that King Zhao was not at peace in his heart at this moment.

"Sir, how did the State of Chu respond?"

Fei Yi, who was originally trying to persuade Zhao Yu not to go to Qi, heard Zhao Yu ask about Chu and hesitated for a moment before answering immediately.

"Your Majesty, the battle ahead with the Chu State has resulted in heavy losses. Not only did they cede large areas of land to Wei and South Korea, but even Wan County, the gateway to Yingdu, fell into the hands of South Korea."

"The Chu State has long had a hatred for the Wei State. The envoy only revealed a few intentions, and the King of Chu immediately expressed his willingness to join us, the Zhao State."

"Now Zhaoyang, the left disciple of the Chu Kingdom, has arrived in Handan and is preparing to meet with the king to discuss the joining of forces between the two countries."

Fei Yi's report immediately made Zhao Yu's eyes light up, and he had already seen the key to solving the current predicament.

"Since Chu State is also interested, it would be better for us, Zhao State, to invite the left disciples of Chu State to join Qi together. As for the few..."

Recalling the scene before his father Zhao Zhong's death in his mind, Zhao Yu's eyes immediately showed a bit of hatred and a bit of determination.

"I am determined..."

"Come in!"

"Your Majesty (Brother Wang)."

Facing the dissuasive voices of Fei Yi and Gongzi Cheng, Zhao Yu's face was full of determination.

"No need to say any more, I have made up my mind."

"If we cannot allay Qi's doubts, then how can our three countries work together and deal with the powerful Wei."

"What's more, with Chu's Zuo Tu here, I don't think Qi will take action easily."

"That's it, you all go down first."

When Fei Yi and Gong Zicheng heard what Zhao Yu said, they understood that his decision was irreversible. They looked at each other and had to bow.

"Here."

When the footsteps of the two people gradually faded away, and when he was the only one left in the hall, Zhao Yu slowly walked to the door of the hall.

Looking up at the deep sky in his field of vision, Zhao Zhong's eyes suddenly became cold and stern.

"Wei Guo, it's time for the grudges between you and Zhao Guo to come to an end."
