Chapter 102 Da Chaoxin Palace 20

"Foreign minister?"

Zhao Yong smiled gently and looked at Lou Lu with a funny smile on his side.

"I didn't expect that one day you would call me a 'foreign minister'."

"I heard it. This is intentional. Do you want to vent your dissatisfaction with me?"

Lou slowly heard the words and smiled, and did not deny it. He just stood still. Looking at the table, I saw a few simple dishes and several bags of wine under the table. I think it was specially prepared for myself.

Zhao Yong stretched out his right hand and patted the couch and said with a smile, "Sit down. There is no need for courtesity between you and me."

Lou Huan was not polite. He rolled up his clothes and sat opposite Zhao Yong.

Lou Huan is the prime minister of Qin. He is naturally dressed in the robe worn by the doctor of the Duke of Qin, wearing a crown and a gold belt around his waist. If he were not a person who was not familiar with him, I'm afraid no one would have thought that he was a barbarian from the Lou annoying clan.

On the contrary, Zhao Yong was dressed in a short and tight beard suit, looking sharp and refined. He looked at the heavy Lou Huan with a smile and said, "What, are you still used to it in the State of Qin?"

"I'm not used to it." Lou slowly looked up at Zhao Yong and suddenly said, "Master, can you allow Weichen to be presumptuous?"

Without waiting for the master to answer, Lou Wan had reached out to untie the robe, took off the robe, tightened his close-fitting clothes, and scolded, "Mom, this dress is too hot. It's really not for people to wear it, but he has to sit motionless, and his buttocks have realized that the prickly heat is coming."

Zhao Yong's eyes lit up and he couldn't help laughing and said, "That's right. This is my good brother Lou Huan."

After saying that, he untied the wine bag in his waist and threw it over.

"Do you dare to drink?"

"Why don't you dare?" Lou slowly reached out to take the wine bag and looked up to the sky to drink. His throat trembled slightly and he drank half a bag of liquor.

He stretched out his hand and wiped his mouth, and Lou slowly shouted, "I'm happy."

"It's still the pleasure of drinking the spirits of our State of Zhao. The wine in the Qin People's Palace is really soft, and it's tasteless to drink. For more than a year, my mouth has almost faded out of the smell of birds."

After saying that, he threw the wine bag back to Zhao Yong. Zhao Yong took it and didn't drink immediately. He just said with a smile, "I didn't expect to see you for a long time. Your preferences have not changed at all."

Lou slowly smiled and said with a deep meaning: "If you are used to something, how can you change it so easily?"

Zhao Yong smiled and asked, "For example, being a Zhao person?"

The smile on Lou's face slowly condensed, looking at the master.

"Lord, since you take me as a confidant, why do you ask knowingly?"

Zhao Yong raised the wine bag and said, "I made a mistake. It should be punished."

After saying that, he raised the wine and poured it in his throat. He took the remaining half of the bag of wine. He turned the wine bag to the ground and shook it. He looked at Lou slowly with a smile and signaled that it was empty. The two looked at each other and laughed.

Zhao Yong took out two bags of wine from under the table and handed them to Lou Huan. The two of them did not drink in a hurry, but drank and talked slowly.

"How's it going?"

Lou slowly put down the wine bag and said with a wry smile, "That depends on what you are asking."

"If it's about enjoyment, then as the representative of the State of Zhao, how dare the State of Qin neglect me? After all, the hundreds of thousands of elites of your father are hanging high on the heads of the Qin people. The stupid things that offend the State of Zhao can't be done by the Empress Dowager. So I eat and live well in Xianyang. I live a life that can't be compared with princes. Wine, food, money and women. As long as I want, the Qin people will satisfy me, because who doesn't know that I am the Lord's face in the State of Qin. If you offend me, it is equivalent to offending the Lord and the whole State of Zhao.

Zhao Yong smiled "haha" and said, "So you have lived a carefree life in Xianyang. I have been eating and drinking in the past two years and running north and south. You have lived this life, and I will be jealous even when I hear it.

Lou shook his head slowly, looked a little lonely, and said in a faint tone, "Master, what you said is light, but it really makes you live this kind of life. I'm afraid you can't stay for a day. In comparison, I prefer to follow you to bask in the scorching sun, against the strong wind, and gallop on the grassland. You don't have to wear this lazi's clothes and pretend to worship all day long.

Zhao Yong was silent and said for a long time, "Thank you for your hard work."

Lou slowly smiled bitterly, "What's so hard or not? The rookie of the emperor, the loyalty of the king, since I am loyal to you, I will naturally not give up until I die."

"It's just that I have a question in my heart that I always want to ask you in person?"

"Oh?" Zhao Yong tilted his head and said with interest, "Listen and see what you're thinking?"

Lou slowly looked at Zhao Yong, his face was a little solemn, and he said slowly, "Master, I have always wanted to ask you. At the beginning, when you sent me to the State of Qin as the prime minister, you just wanted to interfere in the internal affairs of the State of Qin and inform you. But for more than a year, I have not sent back any news that is beneficial to the State of Zhao, and even the attitude of the State of Qin towards the State of Zhao has become increasingly unfamiliar, but you have never sent anyone to question me. I'm really curious. Don't you have any doubts?

"Yes." Zhao Yong said bluntly.

"Many people have suspected that you were seduced by the Qin people, and forgot the State of Zhao and our agreement in those years. But I know who Lou Huan is. If you can back the State of Zhao, there will be no credible person on that day.

"There is no need for suspicious people, and there is no doubt about using people. I, Zhao Yong, have always been like this. If you use your building, how can you be suspicious in the middle? I don't think you can do it in the State of Qin, so I haven't heard from you for a long time.

Lou's face was calm, but his eyes inadvertently showed a little emotion.

"Master, your guess is not wrong. I took office as Qin Xianglai, and the power in my hand was completely empty by the empress dowager. She knew that I was from the State of Zhao, so she didn't have any trust in me at all. The reason why I was still appointed as Qin Xiang was nothing more than to appease the State of Zhao and not let the relationship between Qin and Zhao break down.

Zhao Yong's eyes flashed with a sharp color, and he said in a low voice; "Empress Dowager Mi... I just have seen her a few times, and I don't know her in detail. Tell me what kind of person she is."

"This woman should be a strange woman in the world. She is patient, decisive, and her means are as fierce as any man, and even worse. In order to remove the hidden danger, several princes who failed to compete for the throne were killed by her. Relying on these hundreds of heads, there was no one in the State of Qin who dared to oppose her at all.

"It's not difficult to kill." Zhao Yong's eyes showed a thoughtful look. He gently tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly, "The most rare thing is to kill the least people, but it can achieve the greatest effect. In the end of the chaos of the State of Qin, it was the violent death of the king of Wu, and all the princes were salivated on the throne. Therefore, these princes can never stay, and it will only be a scourge to stay, but the ministers and generals can only choose who to support and not peep at the throne. This is the cleverness of Mi Bazi. She killed all the princes who took the throne, but did not kill any minister or general. So it seems that she is indeed a smart person.

"Exactly." Lou nodded slowly and said, "The government of the State of Qin is mostly under the control of the old Qin families. Most of these families are involved in the chaos of the throne. They are disconnected from each other and communicate with each other's in-laws. If the Empress Dowager Mi is investigated one by one, she will inevitably involve her whole body and cause the dissatisfaction of the old Qin people. Therefore, she is lucky to sell the face of these families. Whether she holds soldiers or not, she is only demoted to civilians to seize the military power, and does not kill them all. In this way, she also won the support of the old Qin people. In exchange, the Empress Dowager Mi later attacked Gan Mao, the prime minister, and the famous general of the clan, and the old Qin people also kept silent.

Zhao Yong showed an interested look on his face and muttered, "In this way, this woman is really not simple. She is qualified to compete with my opponent Zhao Yong."

Lou nodded slowly and said, "Although the Empress Dowager Mi is skillful, she is a female person after all. She manipulates the national affairs of the whole State of Qin through his two younger brothers and two sons, the most powerful of which is her younger brother, Marquis Wei Ran."

"Wei Ran!"

Zhao Yong muttered; "I have also heard of this person. Before you, he briefly took office as Qin Xiang. We mentioned him many times in the detailed information of the State of Qin, saying that he was the right-hand man of the Empress Dowager."

Lou slowly bowed slightly and said, "More than that, this man is good at strategy and calculating. He is the think tank of the Empress Dowager. He was born as a general. He had a good relationship with many generals in the State of Qin. He won nearly half of the support of the military for the Empress Dowager Mi. The Empress Dowager Mi can become the final winner, and his credit is in the first place.

"If the master wants to plot against the State of Qin, this person must go out first, otherwise he will get twice the result with half the result."
