Chapter 77: King Zhao's Final Decision

Everyone was shocked.

No one could have thought that Zhao Kuo should stand here in such a decisive way today to declare war on Yu Xin.

Zhao Kuo looked at Yu Xin calmly.

As Zhao Kuo has always said before, it would be unfair if Yu Xin could continue to survive.

It is unfair to Zhao Kuo, who was eventually just Shangqing and did not receive the position of monarch because of Yu Xin spreading rumors.

It is unfair to the 40,000 Zhao soldiers who were defeated and died in the Battle of Yiyang because of Yu Xin's blind persistence.

It is unfair to the 250,000 Three-Nation Alliance that could have captured Hedong or even advanced to Xianyang.

Many people, including Pingyuan Jun, have told Zhao Kuo that this is politics.

If you want to play politics, you must endure these unfairness and these unspoken rules in order to grow step by step and go to the end.

Zhao Kuo thinks this is wrong.

This world is not fair. Some people are born princes, while others are destined to be farmers who face the loess and face the sky for the rest of their lives.

Zhao Kuo knew that he might not have the power to change this whole unfair world, but when encountering unfair things, he still had to stand up and take care of them.

Some things need to be done.

So Zhao Kuo stood here and said such words.

"I and Yu Xin are incompatible."

After saying this, Zhao Kuo suddenly relaxed.

Is there anything that has been suffocating in Zhao Kuo's heart that has been released at this moment.

He stared at King Zhao with bright eyes, waiting for the supreme ruler of Zhao to make a final decision.

King Zhao's face had turned pale.

Before Zhao Kuo suddenly interrupted King Zhao, anyone could hear what King Zhao said, just to protect Yu Xin.

As Ping Yuanjun analyzed yesterday, as King Zhao's most trusted confidant, Yu Xin was indeed impossible to be dismissed by King Zhao.

But now... everything is different.

Zhao Kuo had already pressed himself on the other side of the scale.

In terms of the level of trust, King Zhao trusted Yu Xin far more than Zhao Kuo.

But when it comes to the contribution to Zhao State, Zhao Kuo's contributions were directly killed in seconds between the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Li, and even the one hundred Yu Xins combined was not as good as those of the kind.

With a bang, Pingyuan Jun slapped the table and said, "Zhao Kuo, are you crazy? You are talking nonsense in front of the king, and you still admit your mistakes to the king!"

Pingyuan Jun looked at Zhao Kuo with a clear sense of persuasion.

After all, this lord has a friendship with Zhao Kuo's father Zhao She, and is also the person closest to Zhao Kuo in the entire Zhao State political arena.

If Zhao Kuo admits his mistake at this time, he can actually give everyone a step. Pingyuan Jun makes another move and everything is in time.

Will Zhao Kuo admit his mistake?

Of course not.

Looking at Pingyuan Jun, Zhao Kuo said slowly: "Pingyuan Jun, I am not wrong, why should I admit it?"

The hall fell into silence again.

Zhao Kuo interrupted King Zhao today and refuted Pingyuan Jun mercilessly, without giving these two people with the highest status in Zhao State at all.

This can only show one thing - Zhao Kuo is serious this time! Yu Xin is completely dissatisfied, and this important official of Zhao State turned his attention to Lin Xiangru and Lian Po for help.

But something strange happened. Lin Xiangru and Lian Po seemed to have not noticed Yu Xin's gaze. They just sat there with a serious face, staring at the table in front of them, as if they were studying the lines on the table.

King Zhao took a deep breath and said slowly: "Zhao Kuo, what do you mean? What do you think is this palace? Can you give you such a joke?"

King Zhao looked at Zhao Kuo as cold as a knife.

Zhao Kuo raised his head, straightened his chest, and looked at King Zhao without any turbulence in his eyes: "Great King, I'm sorry to say that one person who repeatedly causes losses to Da Zhao, and countless soldiers of Da Zhao died in vain. Today, he can still sit in this hall well, and even participate in the military and national affairs of Da Zhao in the future. This is the biggest joke!"

"Enough!"

King Zhao suddenly became furious and shouted: "Zhao Kuo, Da Zhao is my Da Zhao. Whatever I want to do, it's not your turn to point fingers at me here!"

Zhao Kuo just looked at King Zhao quietly and didn't say much.

There seemed to be sparks in the air.

Pingyuan Jun took a deep breath and slowly spoke again: "Zhao Kuo, what can I do to discuss well? Your method is wrong.

What do you want to do, threaten the king?"

Pingyuan Jun still hopes that the whole thing will become a big deal.

King Zhao looked at Zhao Kuo, Yu Xin looked at Zhao Kuo, and Lin Xiangru looked at Zhao Kuo.

Pingyuanjun looked at Zhao Kuo.

Everyone hopes that Zhao Kuo can give in.

As long as Zhao Kuo is willing to take a step back, everyone can talk slowly.

What is the essence of politics? Isn’t it just compromise and concession?

If you take a step back, I will take a step back, and everyone’s transaction will be reached.

But Zhao Kuo didn't say anything, and didn't say a word.

Zhao Kuo will not retreat.

Because—that's not fair.

Lian Po raised his head and wanted to speak, but suddenly a low cough came from beside him. Lian Po subconsciously turned his head and found that his old partner Lin Xiangru was slowly shaking his head.

Lian Po let out a sigh of relief and didn't say anything after all.

Finally, King Zhao spoke.

“Okay, very good.

Yu Xin!”

Yu Xin's body was shocked, he stood up quickly, and said respectfully: "I am here."

King Zhao looked at Yu Xin and said coldly: "As an important minister of the Great Zhao, you have made major mistakes one after another. This really disappoints me and disappoints thousands of people in the Great Zhao! From today on, your title will be demoted to the lower minister and your position as a lieutenant to serve as a warning!"

Yu Xin's face changed drastically, and he couldn't stand steadily and fell to the ground with a bang.

King Zhao finally chose to remove Yu Xin from his post.

But it's not the end.

The next moment, King Zhao's eyes turned to Zhao Kuo.

"Zhao Kuo, you roared at the hall, and openly contradicted and threatened me, without any ministers. It is really disappointing! From today on, don't be your Grand Marshal, just keep me thinking about my mistakes at home! When will I figure it out and come out again?

If you can't figure it out, you won't have to come out for the rest of your life!"

King Zhao stared at Zhao Kuo with great anger in his eyes.

Yu Xin, who came to his senses, also stared at Zhao Kuo tightly, wishing to remove Zhao Kuo from the bottom of his body.

Only Zhao Kuo smiled very happily and bowed to King Zhao: "My minister, obey the order!"
