Chapter 111 Killing 7
Such a big event happened in the camp of the delegation of the State of Qin. Naturally, Zhao Xin did not dare to hide his master's father. He hurriedly carried the assassin's body and hurried to Xingong to see his master.
At this time, the master was eating with Lou in the palace. He was shocked and quickly summoned Zhao Xin into the side hall to inquire about the situation. After hearing that Jing Yangjun was just a little frightened and that he was fine, Zhao Yong was relieved.
If King Jingyang is violently killed in the State of Zhao, no matter who instructs this matter, it will be difficult for the State of Zhao to get rid of the relationship. You should know that Jing Yangjun came to the State of Zhao to accompany the capital, and the natural security is also provided by the State of Zhao. If something happens to the guests at the court meeting, the State of Zhao must give an explanation, otherwise it will be dishonesty in the world. Who will dare to come to the Zhao Congress League in the future?
Zhao Xin also secretly pinched his sweat. Fortunately, he was invited to the Qin people's camp by the King of Yan. Otherwise, if the assassin was successful, he, Yulin Duwei and Han Sheng, must be blamed. Losing officials is a trivial matter. I'm afraid that the State of Zhao will hand them over as scapegoats under the pressure of the State of Qin.
Although he is very favored by his father, politics is politics after all. Zhao Xin will not be naive enough to think that the master father will really risk offending Qiang Qin in order to save his life, and then lose his trust in the world.
Zhao Yong stared at the assassin's body on the ground and pondered for a long time before he waved his hand and ordered, "Ery it down, order me to check, and immediately report the result."
"No." Several guards of the State of Zhao poured in from outside the door and carefully carried away the body of the assassin on the ground. When they left, they deliberately closed it, leaving only the master and Lou Huan Zhao Xin in the room. Zhao Xin saw that his father and Lou Huan seemed to have a secret business, so he bowed and slowly retreated and wanted to quit. But he was stopped by the master's hand and said, "You stay."
Zhao Xin bowed his head and whispered, and he was still a little afraid. Standing aside carefully, he glanced at the master's face quickly. Seeing that his face did not seem to have the intention of pursuing, he was slightly relieved.
Zhao Yong looked at the building slowly and asked in a low voice, "What do you think?"
This incident happened in the delegation of the State of Qin. After all, Lou Huan has been the prime minister of the State of Qin for so long. Naturally, he knows the situation of the State of Qin very well, so Zhao Yong asked him first.
Lou Huan was surprised to hear that Jing Yangjun was stabbed. Although he submitted his resignation like Jing Yangjun yesterday, he asked him to return to China and hand it over to the king of Qin. But after all, before the appointment of the new Qin prime minister, Lou Huan is still the nominal prime minister of the State of Qin. If something happens to Jing Yangjun, Lou Huan will also feel uneasy.
When he heard his father ask him, Lou Huan quickly calmed down and thought about it carefully before he said, "Lord, in my humble opinion, this matter seems to be a deliberate political assassination."
Zhao Yong frowned and muttered, "How can I see it?"
"There are only two reasons for sending assassins to assassinate, one is personal enmity, and the other is the need for interests. Although Jing Yangjun was arrogant in the State of Qin and offended countless people, he was not enough to kill him. Moreover, if it is an old resentment, it can be solved in the State of Qin. There is no need to deliberately sneak into the King of Yan before taking the opportunity to act. It's unreasonable."
"The other is much more complicated. It may be that someone with ulterior motives will deliberately use the death of Jing Yangjun to make trouble for me, Zhao and Yan."
Zhao Yong's eyes flashed a sharp look and said in a low voice, "In your opinion, who is the most suspicious?"
Lou shook his head slowly and said, "I'm not sure. I can only roughly speculate that if Jing Yangjun was assassinated and killed in our Zhao territory, the State of Yan will be the first to be affected by it. The Qin-Yan alliance is bound to break down, and the attack of the State of Qi on the State of Yan also lacks a big constraint. Moreover, our State of Zhao can't absolve itself from the blame. The Empress Dowager Mi, who lost her beloved son, will inevitably be angry with our State of Zhao, and the relationship between Qin and Zhao for a long time will also be affected by it. So from this point of view, Qi is the most suspected, "
"Of course, it does not rule out the mentality of fishing in troubled waters of other countries. Whether it is Wei, South Korea, Chu, or even small countries such as Song, they all hope to see Qin and Zhao fight against each other. Yan was attacked by Qi after losing foreign aid. Therefore, I can only speculate roughly, and I dare not boldly make a conclusion.
"Qi Guo!" Zhao Yong narrowed his eyes, and the murderous flashed in his eyes.
"If it is really the State of Qi, it must be Tian Wen's envoy. Is it that he is not willing to be humiliated by our State of Zhao? It's possible,"
Lou glanced at Zhao Xin and saw that the master's father spoke in front of him. He thought that he trusted the teenager very much, so he was relieved and said to the master's words, "Then what should you do with this matter according to your will?"
Zhao Yong snorted coldly, "Since Tian Wen is the enemy of me, don't blame Zhao Yong for attacking him. Does he think he is the only one who has an assassin? The widow's assassins will only be more than him, not less than him."
Lou Wan heard that the meaning of the Lord's words was to send an assassin to revenge on Tian Wen. He couldn't help but be shocked and hurriedly persuaded, "Lord, this must be done. If it is known by other countries that our State of Zhao sent assassins to assassinate other countries, it will inevitably attract common indignation, which is extremely unfavorable to our State of Zhao.
What Lou Huan said is exactly the rules of the game in this era. The so-called "he will not humiliate each other", disputes between countries in this era are solved through conspiracy and war. Few people will break the rules and send assassins to assassinate opponents. Unless it is the kind of dead men like Yu Rang and Nie Gai who are dedicated to revenge and assassination after the master's death.
This is the unspoken rule of this era, and it is also the law that the kingship of all countries should follow. If anyone breaks the rules, it will inevitably cause a common crusade. Therefore, Lou Huan advised Zhao Yong not to go astray. Once the matter leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Zhao Yong just said angrily that it didn't really mean that. After hearing Lou Lu's advice, he also gave up and completely dispelled the idea. In fact, he also knew in his heart that the State of Zhao could not do anything about the State of Qi for the time being, because from the beginning to the end, Zhao Yong only regarded the powerful State of Qin as an opponent. The State of Qi was not his imaginary enemy. What he needed was only a stable and non-threatening State of Qi, so that he could concentrate on Qin without worries. Once the State of Qin is destroyed, how can the State of Qi be the opponent of the State of Zhao?
Moreover, now that he is gradually falling behind the power of the State of Zhao, the State of Zhao is no longer the only one to say. For Zhao Yong, the most urgent thing is to take back the king's power that has been fallen for a long time, not to fight abroad.
Zhao Yong's eyes fell on Zhao Xin, who was beside him. Seeing him curling his mouth, he seemed to be a little disapproving. Zhao Yong knew that he was careful and often had unexpected discoveries, so he asked, "You were there at that time and said your opinion."
Zhao Xin looked at his father and said stammeringly, "Lord, if it is really instructed by the State of Qi, there is something in his humble heart that he can't figure out."
Zhao Yong Zoumei said, "If you have something to say, fart quickly. What are you doing in the cover? If you don't say it happily, I'll let you drag you down and whip it."
Zhao Xin shrank his head when he heard the words and thought for a while before saying, "Master, what I just analyzed is very reasonable, but I really can't figure out. If it's really what Meng Changjun did, why didn't he directly assassinate the King of Yan? Isn't it more beneficial to him? Why do you want to assassinate Jingyangjun for the near and the far?
As soon as Zhao Xin said this, Zhao Yong and Lou slowly looked at each other and looked a little stunned.
Indeed, they are all trapped in a thinking trap, that is, who will be most beneficial to if something happens to Jingyang, so they doubt the State of Qi. But ignoring the people that the State of Qi really wants to get rid of, Jing Yangjun is still far from ranking.
Zhao Xin's eyes flashed a little, and he continued: "Or, since he is going to assassinate, why can he get greater benefits without stabbing, such as you... You should know that since the assassin can sneak into the king of Yan, he must have had many opportunities to face your master..."
At this point, Zhao Xin did not go on, but his intention was self-evident.
Zhao Yong's face was very ugly, and he couldn't help sweating a little coldly. He suddenly realized how dangerous he was these days. Fortunately, the assassin's target was not Zhao Yong, otherwise the consequences could not be imagined.
