Zhao King Palace.

Empress Dowager Han Ji sat at the top and stared at Xiao Zhao Wang with majestic eyes: "Why did the homework assigned by the Grand Master yesterday not complete?

If it is not completed today, then Wu Xinjun will not enter the palace to teach martial arts classes tomorrow!"

Xiao Zhao Wang was shocked and subconsciously accelerated his writing speed.

Han Xuwei, who was sitting in the lower head, turned red slightly, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart: "I am a well-read person. Why doesn't the king like to listen to the knowledge I explained, but he likes to shoot arrows with Zhao Kuo?"

This Zhao Taishi obviously did not know that the most popular class in later generations was called physical education class.

After scolding the little Zhao King, the queen mother turned to look at Han Xuwei and said, "What's the matter with the Grand Master entering the palace today?"

Han Xuwei hurriedly said: "It's such a queen mother. After the Battle of Hedong, the power of Zhao is growing. The old minister thought it was time to hold an alliance."

"Agreement?"

Empress Dowager Han Ji frowned and said, "Is it really necessary?"

As a woman, she actually doesn't like this kind of public appearance, and there has never been any alliance in history where the Queen Mother came forward to preside over.

Han Xuwei hurriedly said: "This alliance is still very necessary. Although Da Zhao has become a well-deserved overlord of the world after winning Hedong, the princes' fear of Da Zhao is increasing day by day. It is difficult to guarantee that they will not unite to start a war against Da Zhao.

Therefore, it is urgent to hold an alliance to do both kindness and power to the princes and to dissolve the possible anti-Zhao alliance."

The Empress Dowager refused to comment and suddenly spoke: "Korean is the home of an old woman. Should she betray Da Zhao Bucheng?"

Han Xuwei wiped the sweat beads on his head and said, "Of course, South Korea only obeys the order of the Great Zhao, but what about the countries like Wei, Qi, Chu, and Yan must be solved through the Mongols."

Han Xuwei did not mention Qin, because it was basically impossible for Qin and Zhao to have any relationship to ease in a short period of time after four consecutive battles in the past three years.

When the empress dowager heard this, she was a little hesitant. After a while, she said: "Why not discuss this matter in the court?"

Han Xuwei thought to himself that if I were to go to the court to discuss, wouldn’t my credit be diluted?

Han Xuwei smiled and said, "This is mainly a suggestion from the old minister. Whether it is implemented or not depends on the empress dowager's intention.

If the Empress Dowager thinks it is feasible, it will not be too late to go to the court to discuss it."

The Queen Mother was silent for a moment and said, "If the old woman sent someone to envoys to various countries and make an alliance with the kings of all countries, it should be OK?"

If it were any King Zhao, of course, this would be agreed immediately, but the Empress Dowager Zhao was a woman, and she subconsciously still had some resistance to such things.

Han Xuwei is also a personal sensual, so how can I see the Queen Mother’s thoughts?

So he immediately changed his attitude and said, "It is natural to be feasible if an envoy is sent to enter into a covenant with the monarchs of various countries, but it is worth considering who the envoy is going to send."

The queen mother glanced at Han Xuwei and said, "Who is the Grand Tutor?"

Han Xuwei immediately reported the names of several people, and without exception, these people were all officials of Zhao State from Han Xuwei's sect.

The Empress Dowager pondered for a moment and said, "Chu State is a great southern country, and it seems that it is not good if he just sends an ordinary minister.

Let’s do this. When you discuss the matter next time, the old woman will let Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo take a trip to Chu State.”

Han Xuwei was stunned at first when he heard this, and then nodded repeatedly: "The Queen Mother is indeed suitable, and the old minister thinks it is very good."

As long as Zhao Kuo can leave the Zhao State Power Center, Han and Xuwei are strongly supported, provided that Zhao Kuo does not lead troops to fight.

The Empress Dowager said, "By the way, what are Wu Xinjun doing recently?"

Han Xu paused for a moment, then seemed to remember something interesting, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "To be honest, Wu Xinjun has been completely involved in the construction of the academy these days."

The Empress Dowager was obviously stunned when she heard this. After a while, she said, "Have he really gone to build a school?"

Han Xuwei nodded seriously and said, "I heard today that Wu Xinjun took Xunzi to choose a site for the new school palace."

The Queen Mother was silent for a long time, and the corners of her mouth gradually rose: "It's considered that he knows the truth."

In the Queen Mother's opinion, this was obviously a behavior of Zhao Kuo taking the initiative to distance himself from the army in order to avoid suspicion.

This is Zhao Kuo showing weakness and loyalty to the Empress Dowager! So the Empress Dowager became happy and said, "Taoshi, the old woman now thinks that Zhao Kuo is still a person who knows how to advance and retreat."

Han Xuwei could only remain silent.

Almost at the same time, Pingyuan Jun and Pingyang Jun were also discussing this matter.

Pingyang Jun said: "Brother, I heard that Zhao Kuo has been rushing to something about the academy every day. Is that academy really so important?"

Pingyuan Jun, who was writing something, put down the pen in his hand and said lightly: "Of course, there is nothing to say about the affairs of the school.

The Jixia Academy is of no use, let alone the new academic palace of our Da Zhao, which imitates the Jixia Academy?

He just had another intention.”

Pingyang Jun hurriedly asked, "Brother, let me tell me, what is the purpose of Zhao Kuo?"

Pingyuan Jun said with a hey voice, "It's nothing more than being afraid of becoming Bai Qi, who is the second master of great achievements, so he took the initiative to keep a distance from the army and protect himself.

But this kid is still too confident. Both this marquis and you are not dead yet. Where is his turn to be the master of great merit?”

Pingyang Jun touched the long beard under his jaw and said, "No matter what, since he can calm down, it will be a good thing after all."

Pingyuan Jun nodded and said, “Yes.

I hope Zhao Kuo can calm down for a longer time."

Lin Xiangru, Lian Po and Zhou Shaofen also talked about Zhao Kuo during the banquet.

Lin Xiangru said: "Wu Xinjun seems to have grown up. He has been focusing on the affairs of the academy these days, but he has never been to the military camp once."

After drinking the wine in his hand, Lian Po smashed the wine glass heavily on the table and said unhappily: "Who knows, maybe Zhao Kuo is not not concerned about military power, but wants to create a bigger conspiracy through the academy."

Zhou Shaofen, the lowest-ranking leader, couldn't help laughing when he heard this and said, "The General is worried too much. The Jixia Academy in Qi State was so prosperous back then, and the many powerful schools of thought inside were also unable to have any impact on the King of Qi?

If Wu Xinjun wants to influence the king and the queen mother through this aspect, it will be Wu Xinjun’s mistake.”

Lin Xiangru nodded slowly and smiled: "In fact, it may be that Wu Xinjun is afraid that his achievements will shock the master's self-protection strategy may not be necessary.

But no matter what, this matter is not a bad thing for us. We must let Wu Xinjun get further away from the army, so that is the result we most hope to see!”
