General Qin

It was beyond Zhao Tuo's expectations.

In the military affairs discussion after the celebration banquet, although Qin Wangzheng and all the generals and ministers unanimously finalized the direction of Qin's attack.

However, Qin Wangzheng did not make a decision on the spot to decide the coach for the next battle.

"Your Majesty probably left a psychological shadow because of General Li's disastrous defeat. So he dare not easily appoint a coach again. This matter should be discussed later."

Zhao Tuo secretly slandered.

At the end of the celebration banquet, Qin Wangzheng held a swastika to everyone.

"Congratulations for Da Qin!"

"Congratulations to the king!"

Zhao Tuo raised the wine cup together with all the generals, and made a toast to the king.

The celebration banquet specially held for the heroes of Qin came to an end.

After respectfully sending Qin Wangzheng away, all the generals got up one after another, bid farewell to each other and left.

Zhao Tuo went to Li Xin immediately.

But Li Xin had strode out of the side hall as soon as the king left.

Looking at the back of the other party hidden in the night, Zhao Tuo could only sigh softly. He knew that Li Xin was hiding from him on purpose.

At this time, someone called Zhao Tuo's name.

"Boy Zhao Tuo, the old man is drunk, come and help me."

Wucheng Hou Wangjian chatted with Wei Liao on the opposite side, and then greeted him.

Qiang Li, who was sitting not far from Wang Jian, called out, "Your Majesty, I'll help you."

Wang Jian rolled his eyes and said, "You are not light or heavy in your hands. If you are asked to help this old man, I'm afraid the bones will be crushed by you."

After blocking Qiang Li back with one sentence, Wang Jian said to Wang Ben who was about to come over from the other side: "I only want Zhao Tuo tonight."

Wang Ben smiled thoughtfully and retreated.

At this time, Wang Jian stared sideways at Zhao Tuo and said, "Why, after leaving the army, the old man can't order you anymore."

"What did Junhou say, it's just that when General Qiang opened his mouth just now, it's not easy for the boy to step forward."

Zhao Tuo smiled, walked over to Qiang Li's resentful eyes, and reached out to support Wang Jian.

He understood somewhat in his heart that Wang Jian not only rejected Qiang Li, but even his own son Wang Ben, and only let Zhao Tuo support him, probably because he had something private to say.

"Wei Gong, since this is the case, the old man will go back, you should come to Pinyang to find the old man to drink again in the future."

Wang Jian said goodbye to Wei Liao with a smile.

"Your Majesty invites you, and Liao will definitely visit you in the future."

Wei Liao also smiled and cupped his hands, greeted Zhao Tuo next to him, and strode away.

The rest of the generals bid farewell to Wang Jian one after another, leaving Wang Jian and Zhao Tuo at the end.

"Your Majesty specially ordered the boy to help each other, so there must be something to tell you?"

Zhao Tuo asked in a low voice.

"You're smart, kid."

Wang Jian chuckled: "You performed well tonight. When the king asked whether to attack Dai or Qi first, you answered decisively without any hesitation."

Zhao Tuo blinked.

He didn't think much about it just now, thinking that Qin Wangzheng was the first to ask him to express his love and appreciation for him.

Listening to what Wang Jian said now, it turned out to be something else.

Zhao Tuo frowned and thought, he is not a stupid person, he quickly guessed a clue.

"Your Majesty... because I belong to the Zhao clan, are you trying to test me?"

"Of course."

Wang Jian nodded and said, "Because of Xiong Qi's incident, Your Majesty has become suspicious of the six royal families in Qin State. You, Zhao Tuo, are very capable, and His Majesty loves you. But you are from the Zhao Guogong family after all."

"Even if you say that you don't have any thoughts about Zhao Guo, but with Xiong Qi in front of you, the king will inevitably feel alienated from you, so instead of asking me and Bangwei just now, you first asked Zhao Tuo, which is a temptation to you. test."

"Qi and Dai, which is difficult and which is easy, everyone knows. With your ability, Zhao Tuo, you know which country is best for us, Daqin. Therefore, as long as you hesitated in your answer just now, or said that you want to attack Qi Hehe, I'm afraid your kid's evaluation in the king's heart will drop drastically, and you may even feel unhappy."

Hearing Wang Jian's words, Zhao Tuo swallowed.

The king's seemingly favored questioning just now turned out to be dangerous.

"Xiong Qi dog thief, almost killed me."

Zhao Tuo cursed in his heart.

As Wang Jian said, Qin Wangzheng's life came from betrayal, and it was normal for him, who had just experienced Xiong Qi's betrayal, to be suspicious of himself, a descendant of Zhao Guogong's clan.

What if Zhao Tuo is also like Xiong Qi, a rebellious boy who cares about the blood and society?

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

Fortunately, Zhao Tuo's thinking is different from that of people in this era. He doesn't care about the ancestral temples and the inheritance of bloodlines that are valued by the nobles of the six countries. In addition, he knows this history, so he didn't hesitate to answer just now. , In this way, a crisis was resolved.

Wang Jian looked around and saw that there was no one around, and whispered, "You, Zhao Tuo, must not take the initiative to ask for your order to destroy the dynasty."

Zhao Tuo nodded, expressing his understanding.

Back then when Xiong Qi was attacking Chu, he took the initiative to ask for orders to go to Huaiyang. If Zhao Tuo also took the initiative to ask to be the chief general when the dynasty was destroyed this time, I am afraid that the king will be more associated with Xiong Qi.

"I'd better wait until Qi is destroyed before calling for a war. For my identity, this generation is a hot potato."

Just when Zhao Tuo was thinking to himself, Wang Jian said again: "But if the king asks you if you are willing to lead the army to destroy the era, you must immediately agree, and you must not hesitate."

Zhao Tuo frowned slightly.

Wang Jian explained: "Your Majesty let you destroy the dynasty, because he already has trust in you, and he is not afraid of you repeating the same thing. For others, the war of destroying the dynasty is just to gain military merit, but for you, Zhao Tuo, Completely annihilating the Zhao family's community is to show your loyalty to Qin to the king."

"Just like when the county guard Teng raised Nanyang to sacrifice to Qin, the king asked him to lead the army to destroy Korea as a test for him. Those who came from the clans of the six countries can only be used by the king if they destroy their homeland with their own hands. ah!"

Zhao Tuo completely understood.

The king didn't open his mouth, he couldn't take the initiative to ask for orders, that would make him appear too enthusiastic, which would inevitably lead to suspicion.

But if His Majesty asks Zhao Tuo to destroy the dynasty, he must agree firmly and resolutely. If he hesitates a little, I am afraid that His Majesty will feel whether he "misses the Zhao family".

Every question and answer is a test.

"It's no wonder that later generations have a saying that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger."

"Your Majesty has a lot of eyes. You are smiling at me, but you are actually hiding a murderous intention. It seems that you should be more careful when speaking in front of him in the future."

Zhao Tuo secretly alerted himself, and at the same time looked at Wang Jian in front of him with admiration.

It is worthy of being a veteran who has made great achievements and can enjoy his old age in peace.

From what he said just now, he knew that Wang Jian had figured out Qin Wangzheng's thoughts.

Although Zhao Tuo is quite capable of fighting in the army, he has never been in the officialdom in either his previous life or this life, so his political consciousness is much lower.

Without Wang Jian's advice, hehe, maybe he didn't react when the time came, and if he was at a loss, it would be a big loss for the king to be disappointed and suspicious.

"Thank you, Junhou. The kindness of Junhou's guidance, I will definitely remember it in my heart."

Zhao Tuo wanted to thank him with a gift.

"Don't do this. If people see it, they might guess something or two. It's good that you know this in your heart."

Wang Jian grabbed Zhao Tuo's arm with one hand and refused to let him salute. He still pretended to be chatting and walked slowly outside the palace.

"I also see that you, Zhao Tuo, have a heart for Qin, and you will never do something Xiong Qi because of Dai Guo. This is why I said these things to you, because I am afraid that you will miss the king's heart if you are careless."

"Zhao Tuo, the old man is very optimistic about you."

Walking outside the palace gate, Wang Jian smiled and patted Zhao Tuo on the shoulder.

Wang Ben was already waiting outside the door, ready to drive.

"That's it. When I have time in the future, I will come to Pinyang to find the old man for a drink."

Zhao Tuo hurriedly saluted and said: "I will definitely visit you, and I ask you to go slowly."

Wang Jian smiled, and glanced at the young general in front of him who was saluting and seeing him off, his eyes were a little dazed.

Decades ago, he also looked like this boy.

Time flies, the boy is old.

"The future of the Qin Kingdom will be born to you youngsters."

Wang Jian murmured in his heart, turned around and stepped into the carriage with Wang Ben's support.

Wang Ben smiled at Zhao Tuo, and Zhao Tuo hurriedly saluted him off.

Seeing the carriage that Wang's father and son were riding in disappeared into the distant night.

Standing in front of the Qin Palace, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

After a long time, he looked back at Qin Gong again.

Zhao Tuo's gaze was looking at the towering palace wall, as if he could see the lofty king inside through the wall.

"Your heart is unpredictable."

Zhao Tuo shook his head, his gaze shifted slightly, and he looked in another direction inside the Qin Palace.

There was a little softness in his eyes.

"Your Majesty asked me before if I wanted to marry the princess. Although I didn't promise, I have revealed my intention."

"Now that the state of Chu is gone, I also captured and killed Xiong Qi for him. I wonder if there will be a date for me this time?"
