Zhao He stretched out his hand to help him and stopped there, just looking at his brother kneeling on the ground, stunned and a little at a loss.

To be fair, although he was young, he was a little jealous of his brother who had been following his father to fight for a long battle and lived a colorful life. But he was just jealous, not jealousy. He was just thirteen years old and did not have much thoughts, nor did he feel Zhao Zhang's hostility towards him. He even naively thought that this brother would still treat him like he was when he was a child. Although he was serious, he always brought interesting stories to his lonely childhood after returning from the battle.

After all, Zhao He thought more of Zhao Zhang as a brother. Although he was very envious, he never became hostile to him.

But now Zhao Zhang expressed his strong dissatisfaction to him in such a naked way.

So Zhao He just stood there at a loss, looking at his father with a daze. But he saw that Zhao Yong's expression changed a few times. Finally, he walked up with a laugh, helped Zhao Zhang on the ground and smiled, "Zhang'er, this is your fault. You are brothers and bones. We, the three of us, are the closest people in the world, why should we distinguish them so clearly? Sooner or later, everything about the father will be yours, and this great Zhao's life will also be shared by you brothers."

Although this sentence seems ordinary, it is normal for ordinary people to say such words to their eldest son. However, the identities of Zhao Yong and his son are different from those of ordinary people. Fei Yi, who was beside him, felt that there was something in his father's words, and a seemingly unintentional sentence seemed to be implicit.

The family business can be shared, but how can the country be shared? Could it be that I want to follow the ancient feudal system and divide the feudal state into several pieces and share it with all my children? This kind of counter-trend is undoubtedly a foolish move. A powerful Zhao State may then be afraid of it, but two split Zhao State will undoubtedly become a fat meat that the countries compete for.

Fei Yi secretly told me that the Lord's father, such a wise man, would never do such a stupid thing. I think his words were just unintentional words that were casual and had no deep meaning. They must have been disturbed by mediocre people.

Zhao He did not think so much about Fei Yi. He just saw his father smiling and forced his hands to his brother together, and said with a smile. "The father is right, and the son ministers also think it is this. The closest person to the son ministers in the world is of course the father and the eldest brother."

Zhao Zhang held Zhao He's hand, but his smile was a little stiff, and he said with a forced smile, "What the father said is that the son minister was wrong, so he shouldn't have divided it clearly. But Sima Tian often told me, asking me to abide by the etiquette of the king and his ministers, and not to be rude in front of his father and brother, so as not to be exploited by those who are interested. That's why I deliberately maintained the etiquette, and actually made the father and brother misunderstand, and I should be punished by the real crime."

Zhao Yong smiled and waved his hand, "Zhang'er, you're too careful, but what Tian Sima said is indeed a kind of good intention. Let's set rules. If we are in the dynasty or have foreign envoys coming to the court in the future, we will follow the etiquette and law. But if we gather together like this, there is no need to be so dissatisfied, everyone can do it at will."

"He'er."

"My son is here." Zhao He bowed slightly.

"You are now the king of Zhao, the common ruler of millions of subjects. You cannot take the burden lightly. But you are weak and smart, but you don't know much about the military affairs. Now you are still helping you to take charge of military affairs for your father, so you don't have to worry about it, but what should you do if your father dies?"

Zhao He shook his head and said, "Father, you are in full swing, how could this happen?"

Zhao Yong smiled and said, "What's impossible? Do you think your father is the old and stupid monarchs. He doesn't think about how to work hard to govern, but he thinks about how to live forever. He tries his life to live for a long time and enjoy the supreme royal power. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the natural laws of this world. The art of immortality has been passed down since ancient times, but have you ever seen a person live forever?"

"People will die sooner or later, and I am no exception. Compared to dying in the sickbed bed with boredom, the battlefield and military camp are my final destination. Living for ten years with a vigorous life is enough to surpass the fifty years of remaining breathing!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yong looked at Zhao He with a serious expression and said in a deep voice, "He'er, do you know why he passed the throne to you early as a father?"

"Father, you are worried that the son minister will be a little uncomfortable and will take over the throne rashly, so you want to let the son minister sit for a few years first."

Zhao Yong nodded and said, "It seems that you understand the truth. Yes, my father has been fighting abroad all year round, and the battlefield changes rapidly. Any situation may happen. If I died unexpectedly outside Handan, you will ascend the throne at a young age, which will inevitably cause a lot of instability. Look at the previous generations of my Zhao State, it was because of the sudden death of the king and the princes fighting for the throne, so they attacked each other, causing heavy losses to our Zhao State. It was precisely for this kind of consideration that the father allowed you to take over the throne early to consolidate your foundation. With the father on the side, there will naturally be no chaos."

When talking about the story of the princes fighting for the throne, the speaker was unintentionally listened, but almost everyone present turned their attention to Zhao Zhang.

It is no wonder that in the entire Zhao State, the only one who is qualified to compete for the throne with Zhao He is the crown prince of that year, and now the general who holds heavy troops.

Zhao Zhang was told about the main thing, and he lowered his head guiltily, feeling a little scared, and couldn't help but look up. Seeing that the Lord Father's expression was not strange, he was still unsure. He followed the Lord Father since he was a child and still had some understanding of his habits. I think this time I was just talking casually and had no words.

Sure enough, Zhao Yong did not notice the different expressions of everyone, but just asked Zhao He on his own; "If the father suddenly disappears, I will ask you, what should you do as King Zhao?"

Zhao He thought a little and said, "You should follow your father's will, maintain the country within, and defend the princes outside. With the Grand Tutor and Uncle, your son has the confidence to continue to grow."

Zhao Yong nodded slightly and said, "You are right. I believe Fei Yi and his uncle will help you stabilize the court well, but how will you control these arrogant soldiers and generals?"

Zhao Yongyan pointed at Zhao Xi's pig general behind him, and looked at Zhao He with satisfaction.

Zhao He was a little nervous, and couldn't help but wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, and then said, "The son will naturally be honest with the generals and win their allegiance with politeness and kindness."

After hearing this, Zhao Yong laughed loudly and pointed at the generals with a smile, "He'er, you really don't understand the thoughts of these people who lead troops to fight. It's not your fault. You haven't had the chance to go to the battlefield since you were a child, so naturally you rarely contact them. Let me tell you the truth, these rough people, don't be obedient to you, the king, and you have no shortage of etiquette and rules, but you look down on you, a young boy in your heart."

As soon as these words were said, Zhao Xi and others all showed a look of embarrassment on their faces, and they couldn't help but look at each other, laughing and crying. Not to mention whether they had any thoughts in their hearts as bad as Zhao Yong said. But to be honest, they did look down on the young King Zhao. The military has always been judged by military merits. They followed their father for many years to fight. The King Zhao in their minds naturally took Zhao Yong as the benchmark. Zhao He, a young and gentle king, could not catch their eyes.

Although he thought so, the master father said it in front of King Zhao, which made them feel uncomfortable. Zhao Yong didn't care about so much and just continued to say to Zhao He; "The army is not as good as the court. The soldiers believe in real talents and knowledge. For them, the king is too far away and cannot be touched by the distance, so what can really convince them and be willing to follow are more famous and experienced generals in the army."

Zhao He looked at his father, looked a little embarrassed, and said voluntarily, "Father, these ministers... are really not enough."

"It's okay." Zhao Yong smiled and waved his hand, saying confidently. "I have already chosen a right-hand assistant for you. Isn't your elder brother Zhao Zhang the perfect candidate? In terms of military merits, he attacked Zhongshan twice, both of which were of great military merits. This time he conquered several cities and ranked first. In terms of qualifications, he has been with me since he was ten years old. Now it has been fourteen years. Most of these generals are his old friends, so there is no need to say much about his relationship. If loyalty is about you, what can you feel more at ease than your own brother? If he controls the army for you, you can concentrate on governing the country. You two brothers are both literary and military to safeguard the Zhao family together."
