The court meeting once every five days. In the past five days, all the affairs accumulated by the various departments will report to the King of Zhao in the court, so it seems very complicated. Although Zhao Yong was the King of Zhao for twenty-seven years, he has never been interested in such a complicated court meeting, and he will avoid it if he can. Fortunately, after he ascended the throne, Zhao Cheng, Zhao Bao and Fei Yi were all loyal and loyal people. There has been no accident in the past thirty years of Zhao State.

Now that he wants to return to the court, even such a very complicated court meeting is patient and has really made things difficult for him. At first, he was still interested and asked questions and answered with his subordinates. It was not a joke. The things reported later became more and more complicated, especially some elderly officials and officials, who had to think about all trivial matters, which made Zhao Yong very upset.[]

Zhao Yong's face gradually showed impatience, but he suppressed his temper and refused to get angry. He changed his seat from time to time on the imperial throne, and looked at the old men with very bad eyes. However, Zhao He, who was standing beside him, sat there quietly, listening with his head intently, and rarely spoke, but every time he spoke, he asked the key to the matter.

All the things were reported, and it was already noon, and it was time for meals. The officials in the court got up early to get to the morning court, and now most of them were hungry. According to the customs of the court meeting, King Zhao wanted to set up a luncheon to entertain all the ministers, so everyone was thinking about a sumptuous lunch and were looking forward to the end of the court meeting early.

It was not until an old minister who reported the matter finally returned to the queue that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that King Zhao would immediately disperse the court, but unexpectedly saw that the master father had stood up first.

Zhao Yong looked around His Highness and All Officials for a Week, and his hand was involuntarily pressed on the sword around his waist. Finally, his eyes fell on his son Zhao He's face and said in a deep voice, "I have something to announce."

"Now that Zhongshan Kingdom has been destroyed, Lin Hu and Loufan in the north have surrendered to our Zhao Kingdom, and Yan Kingdom has a harmonious relationship with our Zhao Kingdom, so the situation in Dai Land has been greatly alleviated, and the burden on Zhang'er's shoulders has become much lighter. I thought it would be a waste to put him alone in Dai Land, so I planned to transfer Zhang'er into the court to participate in political affairs. Do you have any objections?"

When Zhao Yong said this, His Highness suddenly became silent. Even Zhao Xin, who had been absent-minded outside the hall gate, couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen attentively, for fear of missing a sentence.

Young Master Cheng's face was gloomy, and Fei Yize looked thoughtful, but Lou Yan looked calm, obviously he had already learned the news. Other ministers were either surprised or shocked, or had no one on their faces, with different expressions on their faces, but no one spoke. Li Dui quickly looked at Zhao He opposite him, and saw that he was just looking at him. The two of them were docking their eyes and they had already made a secret agreement to never leave.

Zhao Zhang was named Anyang Jun and was ranked alongside Gongzi Cheng as the highest-ranking Duke of Zhao. His status in the Zhao family was second only to his father and King Zhao. If he returned to the court, his position in the court would naturally not be low. Although he had no position, he was among the superiors. This was undoubtedly a great help to the Duke Party, who was weak in the court.

And what is most intriguing is Zhao Zhang's identity as a prince, which makes people unable to guess what the master father wants to do. Moreover, although the master father seems to be asking for the opinions of King Zhao and his ministers, the tone in his words is extremely stiff, completely a tone of giving orders.

Seeing that no one responded to his words, Zhao Yong looked at him with different expressions, and couldn't help but look angry on his face, and said, "Why, are you any dissatisfied with this decision? I am willing to listen carefully."

Zhao Yonghu looked around His Highness’s ministers, and his eyes were not angry and powerful. Most of them dodged away when they had any contact with each other. Even if they had objections in their hearts, they did not dare to disobey the Lord’s father’s intentions in person. Only Prince Cheng was not afraid. In terms of identity, he was Zhao Yong’s uncle, and in terms of qualifications, he served as the prime minister during the reign of Liehou, so he stepped forward and bowed slightly and said, "What the Lord’s father said is something wrong after thinking about it."

Zhao Yong looked at Gongzicheng, and although his eyebrows were bulging, he was not surprised. You should know that he had been in charge for nearly thirty years, and this uncle was the only one who often opposed him in the court.

Since it was expected, Zhao Yong asked, "What's wrong with uncle?"

Prince Cheng met Zhao Yong's gaze and said bluntly, "Zhang'er is your eldest son of the Lord's father, and he is the one who has been the crown prince for ten years. The old minister is worried that if he returns to the court, he will give some people with ulterior motives some ideas that they should not have."

As soon as Young Master Cheng said this, the meaning was already very obvious. Even Li Dui did not expect that Zhao Cheng would say what he thought so directly, and would not give the Lord Father a chance to step down. He couldn't help but feel a little worried. Once the conflict between Lord Father and King Zhao intensified and reached an irreconcilable stage of conflict, would he, as the core figure in the royal party, have the ability to control the overall situation?

You should know that although he did not really make friends with Zhao Cheng, the huge power of the prince represented by Zhao Cheng was his great help. If the overall situation he carefully controlled was destroyed because of Zhao Cheng's recklessness, then his efforts over the years would undoubtedly be wasted. Once the Lord's father wins in the political struggle and takes back the royal power of Zhao State again, he, who bears the Lord's father's trust, and officials of all sizes, will inevitably be strongly cleansed.

Thinking of this, Li Dui couldn't help but look at the master's father worriedly, but found that although his face was angry, his expression did not change violently, so he felt relieved. You should know that although the master's father had lost absolute control over the court at this time, his prestige in the army was still at its peak. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as he was willing to do it recklessly, in less than a day, the city of Handan would inevitably be cleansed by his army.

Zhao Yong was indeed accustomed to his uncle's uncooperable attitude, so he just snorted coldly and retorted, "It is true that Zhang'er was the prince. Could it be that he would not enter Handan for life because of this? I am still alive, and even if someone wants to make trouble, I can calm down. You can rest assured. Besides, Zhang'er and He'er have been in good health since childhood, and their brotherhood is far better than ordinary people's homes. How can you worry about the messy things you worry about? I want to transfer him back to me just to let the father and son enjoy the joy of family."

"Now Zhang'er is over the age of marriage, but she has always been busy fighting on the battlefield and has no time to get married. This time I plan to let him come to Handan to find a marriage that is of equal status for him. Uncle, you, an elder, will not even stop your nephew's grandson's lifelong affairs?"

In addition to being the position of Zuo Shi, Zhao Cheng also also holds the position of Zong Bo, and is the most prestigious elder in the Zhao clan. As the saying goes, there are three unfilial things, and no descendants are the greatest. As Zong Bo, he naturally has to pay more attention to the marriage of Zhao Zhang, the eldest grandson. Therefore, Zhao Cheng was not easy to refute Zhao Yong's words.

Seeing that Zhao Cheng no longer refuted, Zhao Yong turned his attention to Fei Yi and said, "Fei Yi, do you have any objections."

Fei Yi bowed slightly and said with a tribute, "I just want to ask, is Anyang Jun going to stay here this time? Is it just a short pillar?"

Zhao Yong's expression was a little complicated, but he couldn't see his joy or anger. He just said calmly, "It's hard to say it depends on how the marriage progresses. It takes several months to last for a year or two."

Fei Yi bowed again, but stopped talking. He had been with Zhao Yong for many years and naturally had a clear understanding of Zhao Yong's thoughts, but he also knew that according to Zhao Yong's temper and nature, the things that had been decided were not something that could be changed by the three words of the ministers. Instead of making it boring for himself, it would be better to calm down and think about how to resolve and deal with it.

After all, it is Zhao He who is sitting on the throne now, not him, Zhao Yong. The key is that it depends on Zhao He's attitude. As long as he does not nod and agrees, no government order can be released.

After asking Zhao Cheng and Fei Yi, the master's father's eyes fell on Hu Yi's face again. Although Hu Yi only had a low position and noble title, the Qi clan's disciples were all over the court and the family's power should not be underestimated, so Zhao Yong asked him specifically, "What do you think of Zhuguo?"

Hu Yi bowed calmly and said, "The old minister thought that what the master father said was very true. Anyang Jun was already past the age of marriage, so he should go back to Handan to get married as soon as possible. But Anping Jun was worried about some reason, and the villain must be guarded against. Therefore, how to decide depends on the opinions of the master father and the king. The old minister has no objection." (Anping Jun said that Gongzi Cheng, because most of the historical books called him Gongzi Cheng, Jiangnan also had a misunderstanding at that time, thinking that he had not been granted titles. Recently, he came to a record and noticed that he had been a prime minister during the reign of Zhao Liehou and was named Anping Jun. At the same time, it should be noted that the prime ministers during the Warring States Period were called prime ministers, but in the Han Dynasty, in order to avoid Liu Bang's name, they were all changed to prime ministers in history books)

After hearing what Hu Yi said, Zhao Yong couldn't help but curse "Old Fox". This Hu Yi has been in three dynasties and has been an official since Zhao Yong's grandfather Suhou. He is a well-versed in the doctrine of the mean and has never easily taken a stand in the court. It is precisely because of his wise and self-protection that he has experienced several political purges but is still at the top of the court and is known as a "tumbler" in the court.

It was obvious that he was confused again this time. He seemed to have said something, but he didn't show any attitude at all, but kicked the ball back to his father. This made Zhao Xin outside the door admire him in his heart, thinking that Hu Mao's father was really good, and he deserved to be a man named "Fox". He was indeed a scheming and slim in the court. According to his personality, he would never easily express his support for either party until the situation was clear, but just wait and see.
