Chapter 372 Righteous Speech
Handan.
The businessmen coming and going between the restaurants were extremely noisy, but in one corner, it was quite quiet.
Gongzijia clasped his hands behind his back and leaned on the railing to look at the endless houses.
Handan is the capital of Zhao State. Like Daliang, Linzi and other cities, it is one of the largest cities in the world. It integrates political, military, economic and other functional functions. The city walls are thick and there is a lot of savings. The Qin State tried to attack several times, but failed every time and returned with hatred at the foot of Handan City.
"Where is Zhao Shuang?"
After meeting with Yan Dan, the other party also acquiesced in getting rid of Zhao Shuang and destroying the Qin Yan alliance. However, the most critical one is the whereabouts of Han Yangjun, the envoy to Yan State this time.
Gongzi Jia and Yan Dan's spies searched for a long time in the land of Yanzhao, but they couldn't find the Hanyang Lord after all?
But the intelligence clearly showed that Lord Hanyang left Xianyang in February of spring. Moreover, Qin's deputy envoy is now in Yan, and the alliance between the two countries has been pending. If his envoy doesn't show up, shouldn't he be worried at all?
Gongzijia felt a little anxious, glanced at the street, and waved.
Gongzijia's servant came over and lowered his body.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
"Is that a servant of Young Master Qian's mansion?"
"Yes, sir."
"Didn't he go to the border area to train in the army? How could his close servant appear in Handan?"
Gongzi Jia is the eldest son of King Zhao, born to his first wife, and should be the heir to the Kingdom of Zhao. However, Gongzi Jia's status is unstable, and the main challenge is his younger brother Gongzi Qian.
Gongzi Qian's mother was originally a prostitute, and she was married by the current King of Zhao. She used very powerful methods. She was whispering in King Zhao's ears every day, hoping that Gongzi Qian would replace Gongzi Jia and become the crown prince of Zhao.
Gongzijia was worried, worried that this would continue, but his father accidentally nodded in agreement, but he had no place to cry.
Therefore, Gongzi Jia paid close attention to Gongzi Qian's every move. However, even though his younger brother was full of misdeeds, King Zhao liked him very much.
"I heard that Young Master Qian wants to marry a concubine."
"What did you say?"
Young Master Jia turned around and looked at his servant. Ordinarily, a young master like them would be cautious about choosing his first wife, most of whom would be a transaction. But the choice of concubine is relatively unimportant.
But the problem is, how can he marry a concubine when he is currently training in the army under the king's orders? What does this make Zhao Jun think?
"Who is the other party?"
"I heard that they were just a few village girls in the mountains. The young master saw her by chance when he was out hunting to take shelter from the rain. Seeing her beauty, he decided to marry her."
Gongzi Jia looked surprised and blurted out.
"several???"
Gongzijia seemed a little weak and cursed angrily.
"The mother doesn't follow the rules, and so does the son. How unbecoming!"
"woo woo woo woo!"
In a small courtyard in the mountains, in a quiet room, Young Master Qian was tied up with five flowers and hung in the middle of the room.
Outside the small courtyard, there were boxes and boxes of betrothal gifts. The servant brought by Gongzi Qian fainted on the ground.
Zhao Shuang looked at Young Master Qian with a smile, touched his face with his hand, and looked happy.
"Looking at this little face, it looks like he is used to being pampered."
Young Master Qian never expected that when he impatiently came here with the betrothal gift, thinking that he would spend the night with three beauties tonight, the honest and trustworthy brother-in-law would suddenly take action and hang him here.
Young Master Qian looked at Zhao Shuang angrily and made intermittent sounds in his mouth.
"You want to talk!"
Zhao Shuang pulled away the cloth that stuffed Young Master Qian's mouth. When Young Master Qian opened his mouth, he started to curse.
"Do you know who I am? My father is the current King of Zhao, and he will never let you go. If I capture you one day, I will cut you into pieces."
Zhao Shuang shook his head. The person in front of him was older than him, but his temper was like that of a child.
"Don't worry, you won't remember me."
"What do you mean?"
But Concubine Yan walked in with a bowl of dark medicine, curiosity and joy on her face. It seemed that it was too hot. As soon as Concubine Yan put the bowl on the table, she anxiously touched her earlobe.
"Zhao Shuang, will this medicine work? I've been suffering for so long."
But he saw Zhao Shuang laughing loudly, with a bit of pride.
"This is my Zhaojiacun's unique secret recipe. It is specially used for cutting, and has enhanced special effects. There are very few people in the world who know this recipe, and I am the only one who inherits it."
Zhao Shuang puffed out his chest proudly, as if he was wearing a medal on his chest.
"Those who take this medicine will be in a daze for several days. When they wake up, they will forget all the memories of the few days before and after taking the medicine. And this special effect enhanced version will forget all the memories of several months before and after taking the medicine. The effect is good, and the person who takes it has no problem. The future troubles have been proven for decades.”
Zhao Shuang seemed to recall the glorious years in Zhaojiacun and couldn't help laughing.
"Hahahahaha!"
"What's wrong?"
Luna and Li Ji were alarmed by the laughter and worried that something had happened. When they ran in, they saw Zhao Shuang's face full of joy and in a very strange state.
They have been with Zhao Shuang for a long time and have seen Zhao Shuang in many states, but they have never seen him in this state.
Today's Zhao Shuang is not the young and noble Han Yangjun, nor the righteous and awe-inspiring leader of the Mohist family. He looks like a bandit.
"I have never tied up a young master of a country."
This is a milestone in his career.
Before he finished speaking, Gongzi Qian had some understanding, as if he had realized something?
"Zhao Shuang? Zhaojiacun? You are the Hanyang Lord of Qin!"
"Huh?" Zhao Shuang glanced at Young Master Qian, "Young Master, do you know me?"
"Since I was a child, I have to memorize the information of the clans and nobles of various countries. Especially Hanyang Jun, my mother has reminded me many times to remember it. If I become the King of Zhao in the future, I will very likely have to interact with you. "
"Is that so?"
Zhao Shuang took the medicine, faced the young master and tried to get close to him, and took the step of disowning his relatives.
Seeing the dark medicine getting closer and closer, Young Master Qian was a little anxious.
"Wait a minute! Lord Hanyang, aren't you going on this mission to form an alliance with the Yan State? My eldest brother tried to stop it, but I am different. I can help you."
"oh?"
Zhao Shuang stopped and seemed to be interested.
"how?"
"My mother told me that as long as my eldest brother fails to unite with Yan this time, she will persuade my father to make me the crown prince. Lord Guo Kai will also help. So, I can help you."
Young Master Qian looked at Zhao Shuang with hope, but saw that he was very unhappy.
"The Demon Queen's treacherous ministers have caused harm to the country. I am very shameless. How can I conspire with you?"
At this moment, the sense of justice bursting out of Zhao Shuang made Li Ji's eyes shine.
"I think you just can't bear the ransom!"
At this time, Moon God said something coldly.
When Moon God said this, Concubine Yan nodded inadvertently, and the light in Li Ji's eyes disappeared, replaced by a look of astonishment on her face, and then she felt a little relieved.
"A woman's opinion! How can I, Zhao Dabao, be such a person!"
After saying that, Zhao Shuang poured the large bowl of black medicine into Young Master Qian's mouth.
