Chapter 125 Daughter's Mind

Speaking of this, Zhao was also very interested in confidence, and he couldn't help pricking up his ears and listening attentively. He just saw Gongsun Long's nail on the head and said the malpractices of the State of Wei and the State of Chu, and he couldn't help looking at him a lot.

Originally, he thought that Gongsun Long was just a maniac who could only boast and show off his words, but now he looks at him with some new eyes. I didn't expect that he also had some real materials. With this vision, it was very rare. In one word, he could point out the root cause of the decline of Wei's hegemony. It is precisely because of the loss of a large number of talents that there is the legalist Wu Qi and Shang Yang, and then the soldier Sun Bin Zong Heng Zhang Yi. All of them are the top talents in the world. It is precisely because of the incompetence of the king of Wei that he forced these talents into other countries to be enemies of the State of Wei.

So Zhao Xin came to hear how Gongsun Long commented on the State of Zhao.

"As for the State of Zhao." Gongsun Long deliberately lengthen his voice with a smile on the corners of his mouth.

"The State of Zhao is indeed very strong, even stronger than the State of Qin and Qi. But with all due respect, the strength of your State of Zhao is not due to the perfect system, but the false strength created entirely by the master's personal ability. Although you have strong soldiers, you have no profit. Although you have strong soldiers, you have no capital of a great country. Shang Yang brought a perfect system to the State of Qin. As long as there is no bad luck in the State of Qin, the power of the State of Qin is bound to strengthen day by day and gradually leave the six countries behind.

"The State of Zhao is completely different. If there is no father, the State of Zhao is at best a second-rate country and cannot fight against the State of Qin. Under this situation, the State of Zhao will be defeated by the State of Qin sooner or later. Therefore, good birds choose trees to live. If I am an official, of course, I will first choose the State of Qin with the greatest potential. The State of Qin is neglected by me, so I came to the State of Zhao to try my luck. I heard that Lord Zhao's father is the only one who uses it. He has the ambition of the world, and I don't think he will treat me badly.

Zhao Xin listened to his words full of speculation, and he couldn't help but feel a little displeathe. In fact, it is no wonder that Gongsun Long is not surprised. In today's world of great disputes, the sense of belonging of scholars is very weak, and most of them are swaying between countries. It's just that Zhao's confidence is very close to the State of Zhao, and naturally he can't allow others to defect to the State of Zhao with such a speculative mentality.

So he frowned and said, "So I'm afraid that Brother Gongsun will be disappointed. I know a little about the temperament of the master's father. He likes the determination of Congo and hates smooth-mouthed people. If Brother Gongsun only wants to impress the master's father by his mouth, I'm afraid he will be greatly disappointed."

Gongsun Long was stunned and said with a wry smile, "I won't be so unlucky. I have been rejected by Qin and Zhao one after another. This is a shameful thing. It's extremely shameful!"

Immediately, he thought of something and looked at Zhao Xin. He said, "Seeing the little brother, your temperament and speech are extraordinary, and talking about the master's father is also extremely casual. So it seems that he must be close to the master's father. Your surname is also Zhao. Are you a royal relative?

Zhao Xin smiled and did not deny it. He just said lightly, "The royal family is not good, but the clan is barely okay, but like Brother Gongsun, I are all from cloth."

Gongsun Long laughed and said freely, "So, don't we have to get close?"

Although Zhao Xin doesn't like his speculative nature, he appreciates his free and easy nature, so he also smiled: "Naturally, when Brother Gongsun comes out in the future, don't forget to advocate for me to strengthen his momentum."

Both of them looked at each other and laughed. Ran Min beside her is interesting, and she is also a smile.

I heard Gongsun Long sigh again, "So the State of Zhao is not the place where I have stayed for a long time. Then I have to go to the State of Qi to try my luck, but it's a pity that I will be looked at by that man again."

Zhao's confidence moved slightly. He thought that although Gongsun Long was too honest, he still had some talent in his stomach, especially the three-inch tongue, which was born to be a lobbyist. If you push him to the State of Qi for no reason, it is also a loss for the State of Zhao, and he said, "In fact, Gongsun, don't be so discouraged. There are many powerful and rich families in Handan. Naturally, there will be people who appreciate you. Although you can't go straight to the sky in one step, you can also be a carefree person."

Speaking of this, Zhao Xin looked at Gongsun Long again and said with an embarrassed face, "It's thousands of miles away from Linzi. I don't think Gongsun's entanglement seems to be rich, so it's better to stay in Handan to try your luck. Although the master's father does not like the words of famous people, the newly enthroned king has always had a virtuous name and likes to make friends with the literati. If Gongsun brother stays in Handan, he may be used by the king.

"That's it." Zhao Xin's words made Gongsun Long see hope again. He pondered for a long time and finally nodded, "Then as Brother Zhao said, I'll try my luck in Handan first."

After saying that, he looked at the two of them again and arched his hand; "I think they are in a hurry and anxious. I think there is something important to do. Then Gongsun won't bother you anymore. He will definitely meet again if he is predestined.

The three of them said goodbye. At this time, it had passed the hour (19 o'clock to 21 o'clock). I'm afraid that Ran Min would show his feet later, so Zhao Xin did not dare to delay any more and hurriedly sent Ran Min back home.

With the experience of climbing over the wall this time, it will be much easier. He found a place that was easy to climb, jumped up, took off his robe and twisted it into a rope to pull Ran Min up, and jumped down with her. During this period, he seemed to be very skilled.

After landing, Ran Min opened Zhao Xin's arm slightly and looked at him with a smile and said, "You are familiar with the road and very skilled. It seems that I have to propose to my father to raise the wall by one foot, otherwise it will be unsafe at home.

Zhao Xin smiled and didn't know what Ran Min meant. I wanted to say goodbye, but I looked at the dark yard and hesitated for a moment, "The yard is so dark. I'll send you back to your room."

Ran Min said "Yun" gently, followed Zhao Xin and walked silently with her head down. Suddenly, she raised her head and whispered, "Thank you."

Although the voice was very soft, Zhao Xin didn't miss a word. He couldn't help but stop and turn around and said, "Thank you for what."

Zhao Xin suddenly stopped, and Ran Min suddenly hit his back with the tip of his nose. He took a step back, then covered his panicked eyes with a bun and said calmly, "Thank you for taking me to see the sunset."

"What is this?" Zhao Xin grinned, "If you want to go, there are many places I can take you there."

Ran Min looked a little hesitant. After thinking about it, she shook her head and said gently, "No, I'm presumptuous this time. I won't do it again."

He looked up at Zhao Xin again, and his expression had returned to the usual indifference that he refused people thousands of miles away. He said lightly, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for accompanying me today. It's late at night, and this is the place where the women live in the backyard. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for the prince to walk. Why don't we say goodbye here?

Zhao Xin didn't expect Ran Min to open the distance between the two again so soon. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he still said with a smile on his face; "So I won't talk to Miss Nagging. Good bye."

After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back. He was originally an arrogant person. Although he had a good impression on Ran Min, he was treated coldly by her again and again, and he could no longer stand the arrogance in his heart.

He quietly looked at Zhao Xin's leaving figure. It was not until he disappeared in the corner of the wall that he turned around and returned to his boudoir along the path. Before he entered the door, he saw Xiao Cui greet him in a hurry.

"Miss, you're back."

"What's the matter?"

"Madam has sent someone to urge you to eat twice. I refused on the grounds that you don't have a good appetite and don't want to eat. Just now my wife came to visit you, and I said that you were in a bad mood. You went for a walk alone in the courtyard. My wife didn't doubt it. She just said that she would come back in a while, and it was almost time.

Ran Min nodded and did not reply. She just went back to the room to pull up the joint seat and changed into a riding suit. Not long after I changed it, I heard someone downstairs going upstairs and knew that Mrs. Ran was coming.

"Min'er, I just went for a walk in the courtyard. I thought I could meet you." Mrs. Ran came with a gentle smile on her face, followed by a close maid holding a food box.

"Oh, I saw my aunt in the corner just now, but I just didn't say hello."
