There have been people who have taken advantage of the situation since ancient times. Zhao Lin's defeat naturally requires someone to be responsible for this. In Zhao Lin's view, it was because Li Mu underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly that the Zhao army suffered the defeat. As for him, Zhao Lin, naturally, he played the role of a loyal minister and a good general, and tried hard to persuade Li Mu, but he could not use the plan.

What's more, Li Mu is not flexible, not only does he have little respect for himself, but he has no filial piety at all. He even does not have much preferential treatment for his life in the army.

What's more, news came afterwards that the Qin army had occupied the house city, which had been occupied, was actually given up again, and the army retreated directly to the north of Huaishui.

Combined with the news that Li Mu was released by the Qin army, Zhao Lin had already concluded in his heart that Li Mu must have had some ulterior motives with the Qin army. In Zhao Lin's view, this major discovery must be warned of Handan, whether it is public or private.

When Li Mu collapsed, he was not up to him to Zhao Lin! He was also a man who read military books when he was a child, so it was not easy to lead troops to fight.

As the Imperial Inspector, Zhao Lin had the power to report to King Zhao without Li Mu. Monitoring the General of the Army was also one of the responsibilities of the Imperial Inspector. That night, Zhao Lin wrote a letter to King Zhao:

"The commander Zhao Lin reported that Wu'an Jun was determined to act alone, disregarding the words of our lieutenant generals and other lieutenant generals, divided his troops to attack the Qin army camp, and forced the infantry to block the Qin army's cavalry, causing great damage to our army, and all the chariots, horses, food, and utensils were lost to the enemy, more than half of the soldiers were injured and almost all the cavalry were injured.

Moreover, my secret spies learned that Li Mu had been captured by the Qin army generals during the war, and then released him after negotiations. The Later Qin army crossed the Huai River north, and the troops were temporarily stopped. For several days, the rebel general Sima Shang and other Qin generals had close contacts with Li Mu. I hope the king would think about it early."

After writing, he handed the envelope over to his confidant and sent it to Handan City overnight.

At the same time, Xu Cheng, who seemed to be in a poor carriage, actually had a "huge amount of money" hidden in the carriage, had already embarked on the way to Handan.

Although Xu Cheng was greedy, he did not dare to take the gold he used to bribe Guo Kai for himself. It would be harmless to keep a little bit of it.

As soon as he entered Handan City, Xu Cheng went straight to Guo Kai's mansion.

"Xu Cheng, aren't you stuck in Raoyang by Ziying and Sima Shang's old man? Why are you running back?"

When Guo Kai heard Xu Cheng ask for a meeting, he was also curious about how Xu Cheng escaped. Moreover, the person's identity as a fake inner-histor has not been removed. If he returns to the court, he will also help his party's forces!

"The disaster of extermination is imminent. Is Guo Feixiang not prepared at all?" Xu Cheng did not answer Guo Kai's question directly, but instead asked in a alarmist manner.

Guo Kai's lips curled slightly, as if he heard some joke, saying, "I am a false image of Zhao State. Who can destroy me? Xu Cheng, you are not here to come here to joke with me this time, right?"

Guo Kai was already a little unhappy when he said this. After all, no one would be happy if he was told in person or the whole family was killed.

Seeing this, Xu Cheng still said slowly: "In Zhao, Guo's false prime minister Wang is very close, and he can be said to be inferior to one person and above ten thousand people. It is natural that it is okay, but what if Zhao State is gone?"

After Xu Cheng finished speaking, Guo Kai immediately stood up and stared at Xu Cheng with a serious expression, as if he wanted to make Xu Cheng rectify the Dharma if he had a disagreement.

Although Xu Cheng was a little scared, for the sake of his future, he still gritted his teeth and said the words Ziying taught before leaving in one breath:

"Now, the situation of Qin and Zhao is known to Guo for a long time in the court. Now that South Korea has been destroyed, Qin's intention to unify the world is obvious. Over the past decade, Zhao's country has gradually declined, and Qin Yi's country has expanded its territory and has strong soldiers and horses.

Even if we repel Qin's invasion once or twice, our country's territory is getting smaller and the number of troops is getting smaller, so we can withstand several invasions.

Once the city of Handan is broken, how can the false ministers be with you? Everyone knows that the false ministers are the king's favorite ministers and have a good family business. Once the false ministers are lost, you are like a child holding gold in the market, and you will inevitably be gnawed.

If this is not a disaster for the family, what if it is?”

Xu Cheng finished speaking in one breath, and was already sweating profusely. He carefully used his sleeve to wipe the sweat on his forehead and secretly observed Guo Kai. Seeing that Guo Kai's expression had eased, a hanging heart was put back in his abdomen.

After hearing this, Guo Kai was silent for a while and then left and left, then knelt down and said, "There is no outsider here. What is the reason why you are here? You can't just say these alarmist words to me."

Xu Cheng swallowed his saliva and continued, "This time I came here by the orders of Wang Jian, the chief general of the Qin army, and wanted to send Guo Feixiang a wealthy life.

General Wang also asked me to bring some gifts to Guo Zuoxiang, please see." After that, Xu Cheng slowly opened the box that had already asked Guo Kaifu's house to move to the lobby in advance.

In an instant, golden lights penetrated Guo Kai's eyes with the sunlight shining in.

Xu Cheng said nothing, but said that he wanted to send Guo Kai a wealthy life. The gold in front of him was the basis for this wealthy life. However, Xu Cheng first mentioned the disaster of the family extermination after Zhao Fei, and then gave gold and made demands. Guo Kai naturally thought that Wang Jian had promised to protect him after breaking the city. Guo Kai, whose eyes were full of golden gold, did not notice the loophole in Xu Cheng's words at all.

In Ziying's opinion, Xu Cheng's life is still valuable. At least he has to wait until he rescues Bao Sheng who is still in the prison in Handan and ask Bao Sheng to come and take it personally. Naturally, he will not promise to save his life.

News of the Zhao army's defeat on the front line soon spread throughout the streets and alleys of Handan.

"The Zhao army's cavalry was completely injured, and more than half of the infantry were injured!"

At the same time, the war report on the front line of the Great Wall was heard. Although the Great Wall's defense line has not been broken for the time being, it is still in danger. The main general Yan Ju in the south wrote several letters of expedited military in a day and asked for immediate reinforcements, otherwise it would not last long.

However, now there is no soldier or soldier available except for the inner city defense troops of Handan City and the Black-clothed Guard Zhao State who is responsible for guarding the palace city.

What made the people of Handan even more worried is that somehow a rumor began to circulate in Handan City in the past few days: "Li Mu and his eldest son, Prince Jia, intend to abolish the current King of Zhao, and then negotiate peace with the Qin army to cede the land south of Huaishui and Qin, in exchange for the two countries to repair it forever."

As soon as this rumor opened, it was only sung among some children. Not long after, under the promotion of some interested people such as Guo Kai, it spread throughout Handan like a prairie fire. Now, after dinner in Handan City, friends gathered together without talking about the recent rumors, as if they were out of track with society.

The one who is most afraid of is Gongzi Jia, the eldest son of the former king who is still in Handan City.

For the more wise and famous Gongzi Jia, who had already vaguely threatened the throne of King Zhao's relocation, was originally a thorn in the eyes of King Zhao, and he wanted to get rid of it quickly, but he had never found a suitable reason.

As soon as this rumor came out, Gongzi Jia was even more anxious in his mansion. In his opinion, King Zhao Qian was pushing him to kill him with this intention.

In order to save his life, Prince Jia thought about it again and again, contacted several ministers in the court who were loyal to him, and escaped from Handan City through the night.
