Chapter 302 Zhao Kuo Getting Ready
When the Empress Dowager left, Pingyuan Jun did not stop it, nor could he stop it.
Looking at Pingyuan Jun sitting there in a daze, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It can be expected that if the Queen Mother’s words are spread today, it will be an extremely huge blow to Pingyuan Jun’s reputation.
Pingyuan Jun, who has always been known for his wiseness, actually forced the Empress Dowager Zhao to say such words, "Or otherwise this king will be yours." Everyone will think that Pingyuan Jun is a powerful minister and a bad minister.
The Empress Dowager, with the authority of the Zhao royal family for hundreds of years, launched a moral attack on Pingyuanjun at all costs.
Don’t underestimate this kind of light-hearted attack. You must know that in this world where a person is evaluated by reputation, it is almost a moral sentence to Pingyuan Jun.
Many people with ambition and kindness will leave Pingyuan Jun, and many officials loyal to Zhao will take the initiative to break away from or alienate the relationship with Pingyuan Jun.
This is why Zhao Kuo cannot help Pingyuan Jun in this matter.
Once Zhao Kuo also wants to kill Han Xuwei, Zhao Kuo's reputation will only be like the current Pingyuan Jun, and he will be ruined by the Queen Mother's ultimate kill.
This has actually forced Pingyuan Jun to the corner.
Pingyuan Jun is not without the chance to resist and turn the tables. The Queen Mother said this in fact, it was actually equivalent to completely turning against Pingyuan Jun, so Pingyuan Jun could completely choose to make a gamble - directly rebel! Yes, the Queen Mother is actually forcing Pingyuan Jun to rebel! Will Pingyuan Jun rebel?
Zhao Kuo didn't know.
Zhao Kuo did not comfort Pingyuanjun either, because Zhao Kuo knew very well that if he really went up to talk to Pingyuanjun, even if he just said one word, Pingyuanjun would think that Zhao Kuo's subtext was "Look, I told you that Han Xuwei couldn't move, you still have to move, now you have been tricked by the Queen Mother."
Therefore, Zhao Kuo just left the palace calmly, returned to his mansion, and then summoned his confidants to discuss matters.
After hearing all the information, Xu Li couldn't help but show a gloating expression: "It's time, Jun Hou has reminded Pingyuan Jun but he doesn't listen. Now that he ends up in this situation, he is responsible for his own fault."
But Zhao Kuo's other two retainers frowned.
Han Fei said: "Master, this is not a good thing."
Due to stuttering, Han Fei's words are generally shorter.
Li Si said in more detail: "Master, Pingyuan Jun is our biggest ally after all, and many people even believe that our Wuxin Jun Mansion is still a follower of Pingyuan Jun Mansion.
If something happens to Pingyuan Jun, I think our people may be affected."
Facing the doubts of the two subordinates, Zhao Kuo smiled: "It's okay.
After all, Pingyuan Jun is the Great Zhao Xiangbang, and even the Empress Dowager is not that easy to hurt him.
As for our side, we should tell all of us as before, not express our opinions or take sides! If someone really dares to attack this marquis, then the marquis will take action and kill him!"
This sentence sounds reckless, but unexpectedly makes the three Zhao Kuo confidants present smile with peace of mind.
Speaking of which, in the past few years, Zhao Kuo has been the one who can truly fight against the world for fairness.
After a pause, Zhao Kuo said lightly: "But this time there is also a problem, that is, Zhao cannot follow! The current law is not enough to punish Han Xuwei. Otherwise, how could he escape so easily and accept this sanction?
Li Si, Han Fei, you two studied Mr. Xunzi, but you also studied the theory of Legalists. During this period, you will take the lead in organizing it, using Qin Law, Wei Law, and the Great Zhao Law before Han Law as a blueprint and reference, and then let Mr. Xunzi use the power of the Academy to pour some of the Legalists' resources over to formulate a new legal framework!"
This incident also made Zhao Kuo realize that it was time to repair the law.
Unlike Wei and Qin, the legal system of Zhao was not so strict, and even the legal system of South Korea was not as good as that of South Korea.
Complete laws are the cornerstone of dynasty rule. Chinese dynasties have always attached great importance to laws. In history, powerful Western empires such as the Roman Empire, the Arab Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the First French Empire also have their own detailed legal systems, laying the foundation for the empire to govern many places and populations.
After Li Si and Han Fei took the order and left, Xu Li stayed and whispered: "Master, what do Nightingale need to do here?"
As the most trusted confidant of Zhao Kuo, Xu Li first took charge of Chiyou's army, and now he was in charge of the Nightingale system. These are extremely important forces in Zhao Kuo's hands. During negotiations, even confidants like Han Fei and Li Si have no right to listen.
Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "For the time being, there is no need to take the initiative in China. As long as we are optimistic about our people, we can report it immediately if our people are implicated."
Xu Li nodded, and was about to retreat, but suddenly he was stopped by Zhao Kuo: "By the way, Uncle Xu, I need to strengthen the intelligence collection and network expansion of Yan State recently to ensure that Yan State may move at any time. Do you understand?"
Xu Li's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but say, "Does Jun Hou mean..." Zhao Kuo smiled slightly, without explaining too much: "Go."
The door of the Handan prison was opened, and Han Xuwei, who was dressed in rags, obviously becoming much tired and aged, walked out.
Staying in a dark place for a long time made Han Xuwei subconsciously close his eyes, and adapted for a while before slowly opening it again.
Then, Han Xuwei saw Lin Xiangru standing with a smile not far away in front of him, with two important officials of the State of Zhao, Lian Po and Zhou Shaofen.
Lin Xiangru smiled and said, "Congratulations to the Grand Master for being released from prison and through this difficulty."
Han Xuwei smiled with emotion: "I didn't expect that I would be able to be released from prison on the day of being released from prison. Hahaha, Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo, you didn't kill me after all!"
Han Xu laughed out loud and vented the grievances that had been in his heart during this period.
After a while, the laughter gradually stopped. Han Xuwei found that Lin Xiangru and the other two looked quite strange, and couldn't help but say, "What, did I say something wrong?"
Lin Xiangru coughed and said, "Actually... if it weren't for Wu Xinjun's move, we might not have been able to welcome the Grand Master here."
"What?"
Han Xuwei was stunned and could not believe Lin Xiangru's words at all.
After a while, Han Xuwei, who had heard Lin Xiangru talk about the whole story, looked extremely complicated and sighed, "I didn't expect that... there would be such a magical thing in this world!"
