Chapter 445: The Death of King Ji of Qin

Faced with this problem of King Ji of Qin, Zhao Zhu wanted to speak but stopped.

Zhao Zhu actually did two things these days.

The first thing was to cede Hangu Pass and the land east of Hangu Pass to seek peace with Zhao State.

The second thing is to mobilize all forces within the Qin State to prepare for the invasion of the Chu people.

Any of these two things is absolutely bad news for Qin State.

Can these bad news really be told in front of Qin Wang Ji who just woke up?

Zhao Zhu did not forget that King Ji of Qin vomited blood and fainted on the spot after hearing the news of Wang Wei's defeat.

If Zhao Zhu said something about cede land and seeking peace, and the news that the enemy took advantage of the situation would cause another major stimulus to King Ji of Qin?

So Zhao Zhu really dare not say it.

What a person, King Ji of Qin, was? Seeing Zhao Zhu's expression that he wanted to say but dared not say, he immediately understood most of the time.

"Don't worry, just tell the truth. I asked you, did Lian Po already lead his army to surround Xianyang?"

When Zhao Zhu heard this, he shook his head and said to King Ji of Qin: "King, in fact... Zhao's army had retreated a few days ago."

"Retreat?" A glimmer of surprise appeared in King Ji of Qin.

But soon, the king of Qin seemed to have thought of something again and sighed softly.

"This time...what piece of land has been ceded?"

Zhao Zhu was also a little sad and replied softly: "There is a line in the channel of the huhan."

After Zhao Zhu said this, Qin Wang Ji did not have much anger on his face, but showed a "very sure" expression: "Will Hangu Pass be ceded?"

Zhao Zhu lowered his head: "...Now Hangu Pass is also part of Zhao State."

King Ji of Qin frowned, and a trace of anger flashed across his face: "Why?"

Zhao Zhu hurriedly said: "King, the situation was urgent at that time. Wang Wei's troops could be completely wiped out by Lian Po at any time. In addition, the Chu people took advantage of the situation to rob and dispatch troops to attack Nanyang County..."

King Ji of Qin interrupted Zhao Zhu: "The Chu people attacked Nanyang County?"

Zhao Zhu nodded gently.

Perhaps because he was in a bad mood, Zhao Zhu did not notice that his father seemed to be more and more fluent when he spoke, and a red light gradually appeared on his face, looking like he had completely returned to the peak of his body.

Generally speaking, this phenomenon is called retrospective.

King Ji of Qin looked at Zhao Zhu who had completely lowered his head, and his face was not as furious as Zhao Zhu thought. Even when he spoke, he was very calm: "So that's it. Then Hangu Pass would be ceased. Anyway, after the future recovery of Hetu County, this Junhan Pass would naturally return to the hands of the Great Qin again."

After a pause, King Ji of Qin continued, "Since the Chu people took advantage of the situation to rob, you must have dealt with it. Who is the Lord?"

Zhao Zhu nodded and said, "My son has ordered Wang Yu to lead his army to Nanyang County and the people of Chu..."

King Ji of Qin interrupted Zhao Zhu again: "Wang He is defeated repeatedly and is a useless person. How can he be the commander of the Great Qin?"

Zhao Zhu raised his head and looked at his father in surprise.

Although Zhao Zhu also knew that Wang He was actually very limited in his level, the problem is that the only thing that Qin State can use is only one Wang He.

Other things like Wang Ling Sima Jin, either they are not qualified enough or they are not smart enough. In short, they are taller from the short guy. No matter what, Wang Yan said, he has beaten Chu, right?

King Ji of Qin obviously saw Zhao Zhu's thoughts and said to Zhao Zhu in a deep voice: "I am rumored to have Wu'an Jun Bai Qi as the main general, and Wei Liao as the deputy general assisted Bai Qi in the fight against the Chu army."

"Bai Qi?" Zhao Zhu's body was shocked.

King Ji of Qin actually wants to use Bai Qi again?

As an adult and the future king of Qin, Zhao Zhu certainly knew very well why King Ji of Qin suppressed Wu'an Jun Bai Qi.

In fact, even if King Ji of Qin did not suppress Bai Qi, he would definitely find a way to take Bai Qi down after Zhao Zhu ascended the throne.

But at this moment, King Ji of Qin once again proposed to enable Bai Qi?

Could it be...

Zhao Zhu suddenly felt a little complicated.

King Ji of Qin looked at Zhao Zhu with a complicated and unspeakable look, and a look of disappointment appeared on his old face.

As the saying goes, no one knows his son better than his father. King Ji of Qin actually knew very well that Zhao Zhu's son was much worse than himself, and at best he was a king who was a successful person.

But the situation facing Qin is so dangerous. Can a defender like Zhao Zhu really deal with Zhao's aggressive offensive?

King Ji of Qin sighed in his heart: "Zhu'er...ah, I can only hope that my grandson can become a wise king and save the Qin Dynasty from the fire and water."

No matter what, Zhao Zhu is the oldest son of King Ji of Qin after all, and is also the next king of Qin. Therefore, although King Ji of Qin was helpless, he could only suppress his temperament and patiently give Zhao Zhu some advice.

"Zhu'er, I, the Great Qin tiger, used to be the world, and was an unyielding overlord of the vassals. At that time, civil strife caused more harm to the Great Qin than external troubles. This is why I suppressed Bai Qi. But now that Zhao State is getting bigger, if the Great Qin is not careful, there will be concerns about the destruction of the country. At this moment, the troubles outside the Great Qin are far better than civil strife. It is the time to suppress Bai Qi. Instead, let Bai Qi, the beast, come out of the cage and be used by the Great Qin. Do you understand?"

After hearing what King Ji of Qin, Zhao Zhu nodded very hard and said, "My son knows it. So the king's meaning is to hope that Mr. Wang will train Wei Liao in the future to balance Bai Qi?"

King Ji of Qin showed a look of relief on his face when he heard this, and he smiled and said, "Zhu'er is indeed smart. In my opinion, Wei Liao has shown his strength at such a young age and will definitely become a great man in the future. If Zhu'er can win Wei Liao, the Qin Dynasty will be free of worries!"

Zhao Zhu was surprised when he heard this, because King Ji of Qin rarely praised anyone like this.

But the problem is that King Ji of Qin praised Wei Liao so much based on his performance in the grand court discussion last time. Isn’t it a bit too much?

Zhao Zhu somewhat disagreed with what King Ji said about Qin.

At this moment, King Ji of Qin suddenly coughed violently again.

The old eunuch stepped forward and pinched his shoulders and back again. However, the next moment, Qin Wang Ji suddenly opened his mouth, and another mouthful of blood was spurting out, which was right on Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu was so scared that he was so scared that he stood up in a panic that he was about to ask the palace doctors who were on standby outside to come in quickly, but was caught by King Qin Ji.

"It's okay... I have something to tell you."

Zhao Zhu wanted to break free, but was afraid that his father would fall down because of this, so he had no choice but to sit down.

King Ji of Qin pointed to the old eunuch beside him: "This person is a 'hou', you should know it."

Zhao Zhu was shocked when he heard this and glanced at the old eunuch in a bit incredible way.

The famous "hou" turned out to be such a shameless old eunuch?

Although Zhao Zhu is the future monarch of Qin, this is the first time he knows the true identity of "hou".

But... why did King Ji of Qin suddenly explain this matter at this time?

Before Zhao Zhu could figure it out, King Ji of Qin had already let go of Zhao Zhu's hand and said, "Let's ask the ministers to come in."

After a moment, all the Qin ministers who were originally waiting outside the hall came to Qin Wang Ji.

These Qin ministers were shocked when they saw the blood on the ground and Zhao Zhu's body. However, when they saw King Ji of Qin sitting there and staring at everyone with his eyes brightly, no one dared to ask about this.

King Ji of Qin's eyes passed through the Qin ministers one by one, and finally turned into a deep sigh.

"I know that the deadline has arrived. After I die in the sky, the position of King Qin will be passed on to Zhu'er. All the ministers must help Zhu'er and lead the Qin Dynasty to overcome difficulties together!"

As soon as King Ji of Qin finished speaking, a group of people fell to their knees in the hall.

...

On April 7, 257 BC, a generation of heroes led Qin to the peak, and watched Qin's king, King Ji, who had fallen from the peak, return to heaven in Xianyang.
