Chapter 348: Your Majesty speaks, when is it your turn, Fan Sui, to intervene?
Of course, there is a reason why Zhao Dan asked this question first.
Slap in the face!
That's right, I'm such a stingy person.
Don’t you, King Ji of Qin, want to use this Hedong County to deceive me? Then now I must use this matter to slap you in the face so that you can know that I am not so easy to deceive!
Sure enough, after Zhao Dan raised this question, the expression on Qin Wang Ji's face immediately turned red and white, which was extremely exciting.
No matter who it is, as long as this person has a little self-esteem, he will definitely feel very uncomfortable when he is slapped in the face on the spot.
For King Ji, who has been at the top of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period for the past thirty years and has always looked down on all the other six kings, Zhao Dan's words were like a loud slap in the face.
What made Qin Wang Ji even more frustrated and helpless was that when facing Zhao Dan's slap in the face, Qin Wang Ji was completely unable to get angry and could only endure it!
King Ji of Qin took a deep breath and barely showed a smile on his face: "King Zhao was joking."
"Just?" Zhao Dan laughed and stared at Qin Wang Ji with a sharp look: "Qin Wang Ji, isn't what I said? If Qin Wang came today to discuss the land cemetery with me, then I can't say that I can only send off the guests!"
Zhao Dan's words were extremely tough.
I'll kill you while you're sick.
The soldiers of Zhao State fought bloody battles on the front line, the generals were strategizing in the tent, and the strategists racked their brains in the rear. Isn’t all this just to make Zhao State’s position on the negotiating table work harder?
Since that's the case, Zhao Dan will of course have to get what is worthy of all the people of Zhao at this negotiating table, and even get more rewards than Zhao!
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Dan deliberately asked King Ji of Qin to wait for a quarter of an hour outside the camp gate, and deliberately let Yu Xin, who did not match his status, greet him, and now he deliberately said these words that angered King Ji of Qin.
Although all this is considered to be slapped in the face and venting anger, Zhao Dan hopes to suppress the momentum of King Ji of Qin through these, make King Ji of Qin become impatient, and thus gain more advantages for Zhao State in the upcoming negotiations!
Momentum is very important.
This is like in a TV series, when the defendants came to the hall, the yamen runners on both sides knocked on the floor with sticks and shouted "magnificently" and then the big master of the blue sky above slapped the slap. The monks basically had to pee their pants, and they had already thrown their armor psychologically...
As for the question of whether it is open and honest enough... Now Zhao and Qin are both alive and dead, who cares about you?
When King Ji of Qin sent Zhang Yi to trick King Huai of Chu into a foreign land, he didn't even consider the openness and integrity?
This is called "no retribution" and the time has not come.
Today, let me, the leader of the grandson of King Huai of Chu, avenge him!
Of course, King Ji of Qin didn’t know that Zhao Dan had such rich inner activities in his heart, but King Ji of Qin was a spirit-like figure after all, so how could he not tell Zhao Dan’s intention?
Therefore, after a short moment, King Ji of Qin quickly controlled his inner emotions and said to Zhao Dan faintly: "King Zhao, isn't the whole place in Hedong County enough to satisfy your appetite?"
Zhao Dan laughed: "King Qin, King Qin, at this moment, you don't have to joke with me. The land of Hedong County is now in my pocket. Whether you are willing or not, Hedong will return to the arms of the Three Jins from now on! So I suggest that the King of Qin think about it carefully and continue to cut down the land to compensate me for my losses!"
Even though Qin Wang Ji had already hinted in his heart that he should not be angry countless times, he could not help but flash a cold light in his eyes after hearing Zhao Dan's words, and he was slightly cold when he spoke: "Loss? I wonder what King Zhao has lost."
Zhao Dan smiled and said, "The loss is huge. King Qin, think about it, this army is dispatched, the military rations must be used? Military pay must be paid? Soldiers must be paid if they die, right? The soldiers must be rewarded if they make meritorious service, right? Come and go, my Zhao treasury is about to be hollowed out! The reason for this is because of King Qin, you have to compensate me for my losses!"
Qin Wang Ji's eyelids were thrilling, and finally he couldn't help but say angrily: "All the ages, which country did not do this when it was fought? How could this depend on me?"
Zhao Dan said seriously: "King of Qin, this matter has arisen because of you. If you don't compensate, who will compensate?"
King Ji of Qin said angrily: "If you hadn't taken advantage of the fact that I was attacking my Hedong County while I was conquering Chu State, how could there be a war between Qin and Zhao?"
Zhao Dan smiled and said, "If the King of Qin did not suddenly send troops to conquer Chu while I was dealing with the Xiongnu's going south, then there would be no war between Qin and Zhao."
Fan Sui, who was standing beside him, saw that the situation was not good, hurriedly said, "King Zhao, in my opinion..."
"Shut up!" Zhao Dan shouted loudly in the hall like a bolt from the blue: "Fan Sui, I am talking to your king now. You are just a mere minister. Why don't you follow the way of the king and the minister and speak loudly in front of the two kings!"
"Come here!" Zhao Dan waved his hand and shouted: "Expel Fan Sui from me, and he will be responsible for thirty military sticks!"
Zhao Dan suddenly had an attack, which immediately made Fan Sui stunned.
You should know that since Fan Sui became the prime minister of Qin, which king of other countries did not want to politely say that when he saw Fan Sui, he had never scolded Fan Sui so mercilessly, and even dragged Fan Sui out to beat a stick?
Fan Sui was very angry and was about to have anger on the spot, but he happened to meet Zhao Dan's cold gaze that seemed to be smiling.
At this moment, Fan Sui actually saw an unconcealed murderous intent in Zhao Dan’s eyes!
This murderous intent was poured directly from Fan Sui's head like a basin of cold water, pouring Fan Sui's heart-warming. He didn't dare to say the rebuttal words that had reached his mouth.
Just as Fan Sui was stunned, several Zhao State palace guards had appeared, and they were holding Fan Sui like a fierce and evil spirit and were about to walk outside.
"Bang!" King Ji of Qin slapped the table heavily and glared at Zhao Dan: "King Zhao, what do you mean?"
Zhao Dan laughed: "King of Qin, I am just helping you to discipline your ministers."
The two of them had a fierce confrontation in the air, as if Mars were flying everywhere.
King Ji of Qin said in a deep voice: "Fan Sui is my minister. Even if he makes any mistakes, he should be taught a lesson. It is not a matter of need for King Zhao to take over his duties!"
Zhao Dan's smile remained unchanged: "Fan Sui was a matter of my own territory, and it was my own offense. King Ru of Qin said, why can't I control it?"
Just as the two of them confronted each other fiercely, several Zhao State palace guards had already dragged Fan Sui, who was shouting for mercy, to go further and further away, and was about to drag out of the hall.
King Ji of Qin looked at the scene in front of him and his face turned extremely blue.
Originally, it would have been a very bad thing for King Ji of Qin to come to Zhao Dan. Now if the news of Fan Sui being beaten with military sticks in the Zhao camp will be spread again (which is almost inevitable), then how can Qin Wang Ji and Qin have the face?
Looking at Zhao Dan, who was sitting in front of him with a smile, Qin Wang Ji almost bit his teeth, and his words seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth.
"Since that's the case, how can King Zhao bypass Fan Sui this time?"
After hearing this, Zhao Dan's smile became even stronger.
King Ji of Qin has given up.
"Wait, wait a moment at the door!"
So several Zhao guards dragging Fan Sui stopped at the door of the hall.
Zhao Dan turned his head and smiled at King Ji of Qin, "This Fan Sui interrupted casually, which caused serious psychological harm to me. I think it is true that I can't compensate me without compensation. So, King of Qin only needs to compensate me for three thousand kilograms of copper, so let's forget about this."
"Three thousand kilograms of copper?" Qin Wang Ji's eyes were about to pop out, and he shouted almost without thinking: "This matter is absolutely impossible!"
You should know that these days, copper is not only the main minting material for coins, but also a strategic material, and this is even more so for the Qin State.
You should know that although it has entered the Iron Age, due to the lack of iron ore and related technologies in the Qin State, the Qin army has always been dominated by bronze weapons, even after the capture of cities such as Wancheng and Yiyang.
Now Zhao Dan just found Fan Sui’s fault because he picked the bones in the eggs, and then he asked for three thousand kilograms of copper as soon as he opened his mouth.
This is simply a perfect lion's mouth!
In the view of King Ji of Qin, even Fan Sui's life may not be worth three thousand kilograms of copper!
After all, in the heart of King Ji of Qin, Fan Sui, now, is no longer the same as Fan Sui who offered advice to conquer the four nobles.
Zhao Dan was not surprised by Qin Wang Ji's rejection.
After all, this was a lion's mouth. If King Ji of Qin really agreed, then there would be a ghost.
Therefore, Zhao Dan was not in a hurry and waved to several Zhao court guards waiting for orders at the entrance of the hall and said, "Come on, drag it out!"
