Chapter 580: The Crisis Comes? Zhao Kuo is Calm

“Excellent opportunity?”

Looking at the swearing Pingyang Jun, Pingyuan Jun couldn't help but be confused.

Pingyang Jun approached and whispered: "According to the news that Yu brother just got from the palace, Le Cheng was not willing to be outdone after being cheated by Wu Xinjun, and has submitted a memorial to demand severe punishment for Wu Xinjun's behavior of building Jingguan.

The reason is that Wu Xinjun’s actions are too cruel, and it will inevitably make the princes in the world look down on us, and make the scholars in the world even more disinterested!"

Pingyuan Jun shook his head speechlessly for a few seconds: "It's impossible. This reason is too far-fetched. The Empress Dowager would not use this to do anything to Wu Xinjun."

Pingyang Jun smiled: "Brother is right, this reason is indeed a bit far-fetched.

But the question is, what if the Queen Mother and the people in Handan City believe it?"

Pingyuan Jun was stunned for a moment: "You mean..." Pingyang Jun said seriously: "My brother Yu means very simple, that is, let people spread rumors in Handan City and crack down on Wu Xinjun's reputation.

At the same time, you and I will report the memorial together and work with Lin Xiangru and others to impeach Zhao Kuo.

In this way, the empress dowager will inevitably be moved. Even if she cannot directly remove Wu Xinjun from her official position, she will definitely scold Wu Xinjun.

With the Queen Mother’s reprimand, everyone in Handan and even in the entire Great Zhao will know Wu Xinjun’s reputation for being cruel. This reputation may not be visible now, but as long as we come a few more times in the future, Wu Xinjun will definitely be ruined over time!”

Perhaps because he was too excited, Pingyang Jun couldn't help but dance.

Ping Yuanjun looked at the half-brother with complicated eyes, and after a long time, he suddenly said, "Brother, how long have you been thinking about this plan?"

Pingyang Jun paused for a moment, and then admitted frankly: "Brother Yu has long wanted to get rid of Zhao Kuo!"

Zhao Kuo has always been promoted step by step and is now the first among the generals of Zhao State.

With Zhao Kuo's current status, if you continue to be promoted, there is only one official function suitable, that is, Zhao State Prime Minister! Pingyang Jun himself, as an important minister of the Zhao State Royal Family, is currently the younger brother of Pingyuanjun, the prime minister of Zhao State Prime Minister Pingyuanjun. Among civil officials, the second largest person ranked second only to Pingyuanjun. Naturally, he has long regarded the future position of Zhao State as his own pocket.

But Pingyang Jun knew very well that if his brother Pingyuan Jun suddenly died or was dismissed from office, he would not be able to compete with Zhao Kuo in terms of ability or reputation.

Before, there was no way to break up the ally combination of Pingyuan Jun and Zhao Kuo, but now Zhao Kuo is pulling Pang Qian to set up his own business. It is a good time for Pingyang Jun to launch a large attack and find a way to kill Zhao Kuo! Pingyuan Jun pondered for a long time and nodded, "Okay, then do this according to your method."

The next day, Pingyang Jun wrote a letter in the name of Siko of Zhao State, saying that although Zhao Kuo's behavior of building the Xiongnu Jingguan outside Pingyin City did not violate any laws of Zhao State, it might involve the act of killing good people and taking credit. I hope that the empress dowager could allow the Siko of Pingyang Jun to conduct a thorough investigation.

On the third day, Zhao Guoshi Lin Xiangru wrote a letter, believing that Zhao Kuo might involve embezzlement and waste of military supplies in the Battle of Pingyin, and hopes to investigate it strictly.

On the fourth day, Lieutenant Zhou Shaofen of Zhao State wrote a letter. His tone was much more relaxed than others, but he also believed that the lieutenant was an institution that supervised all officials of Zhao State. Now there is so much controversy over Wu Xinjun's Battle of Pingyin that the lieutenant, not Si Kou, should be investigated by the lieutenant.

On the fifth day, the Zhao State Grand Champion Pang Nuan wrote a letter, believing that the attacks of others were all false and were completely manifested in jealousy of the talented people to attack political enemies.

On the sixth day, Zhao Sheng, the prime minister of Zhao State, wrote a letter, believing that since this matter has been in full swing, the empress dowager should investigate it strictly.

Even if Wu Xinjun is a long-time general of the country, he cannot break the rules of Zhao for so many years! For a time, the winter in Handan began to become hot.

This matter began to be discussed in the taverns on the streets and alleys.

"Have you heard of it? Wu Xinjun was attacked by many important officials!"

"Yes, yes, I heard that Wu Xinjun is suspected of killing Liang and taking credit!"

"I also heard that Wu Xinjun might secretly embezzle military logistics assets!"

"The Lieutenant's Mansion seems to have sent officials to the north to investigate Wu Xinjun."

"This time, so many important officials took action, Wu Xinjun is probably finished?"

With a bang, a big man with a beard slammed the table and said angrily: "It's simply nonsense! Wu Xinjun has made so many contributions to Da Zhao, and his loyalty is nothing else. Why are you saying this to be like this?"

As the big man rolled his beard finished speaking, several other people immediately echoed: "That's right, my family has followed Wu Xinjun to fight, but I have never heard him say anything like deducting logistics and military pay!"

"Yes, those people are simply afraid of Wu Xinjun's contributions and want to slander Wu Xinjun!"

The controversy in Handan City was raging, and the people were divided into two factions. Among them, the faction that attacked Zhao Kuo became more popular, but there were also many people who defended Zhao Kuo.

The wind of rangers was originally prevalent in Yanzhao. Many people quarreled and even fought each other, which caused a surge in public security incidents in Handan City to suddenly surge.

After Wu Xinjun's mansion realized something was wrong, it immediately sent a fast horse to head north in the vast wind and snow.

In Datong City, the General of Zhao State camped.

Zhao Kuo looked at the letter stained with ice and snow in front of him, and after reading it, he couldn't help but shake his head: "These guys are really impatient..." After passing through the letter, Li Mu, who had the hottest temper around Zhao Kuo, couldn't help but get up and said angrily: "The lord is fighting for the country abroad, but these shameful guys are doing wind and rain in the country. It's really shameful and hateful!"

Xu Li also had a gloomy face and said coldly: "Master, it's time to mobilize our strength to fight back against them!"

Guo Zong said: "Just as the Lord Lord saw on the last list, I have secretly bribed many people over the years. As long as the Lord Lord gives the order, these seemingly neutral people will immediately stand up to support the Lord Lord, which will definitely catch them off guard!"

As the saying goes, a soldier is a general who is in a nest. This sentence shows that the main general actually has a great influence on the style of his subordinates.

Zhao Kuo's attitude in the government has always been dissatisfied and tough, which has also led to Zhao Kuo and other retainers who also thought of a positive attitude when encountering such a thing.
