Chapter 34 Wang Bai

"King, I'm here in the morning, I'm afraid I haven't had breakfast yet. It's just right, but Wang Li hasn't. Later, I was about to do it myself and have a good meal. But it's just right that the King is here."
Before the mansion, he was praised by King Zhao. Wang Li was like a breeze blowing on his face. After a change of topic, he turned to breakfast.
"Oh? Sir, he still knows how to cook?" When King Zhao heard Wang Li's words, he sighed in his heart that there was such a person in this world. He was only about twenty years old. Of course, he knew the way to live longevity, and his actual age might be higher.
But looking at him, he knew both the art of alchemy and the art of refining medicine, and his swordsmanship was said to be comparable to that of the Jixia Sword Saint Cao Qiudao. Today, he saw that his military skills were extraordinary. He had only been able to get his mansion overnight and trained his strange slaves like an old soldier.
At this time, he heard that he was still good at cooking. King Zhao was confused, but he knew in his heart that he knew. "I really don't know how much he knows. I used to hear that there was a genius in the world. Today, when I saw him, I realized that it really existed."
"It's rare that Mr. Don't give up and come to assist me. It's God's blessing and ancestors' blessing."
Seeing that King Zhao had three words and blessings from his ancestors, Wang Li laughed secretly and said calmly: "There is no genius in this world? This way of cooking is really forced by the situation, and he has to do it."
"Wang Li traveled all over the Jiuzhou and outside the territory, and he often walked alone. If he didn't understand the kitchen, wouldn't he starve to death? And he had to learn swordsmanship. If there was no superman swordsmanship, just wild beasts in the forest would have lost my life."
"The world only sees that my achievements are extraordinary, but I don't know the hardships behind this achievement." Wang Li sighed, and when King Zhao heard this, he nodded repeatedly, and didn't know what he thought of.
Wang Li looked at his expression and said, "The world's vision is always one-sided and narrow-minded. When I came to Handan before, I heard other nobles in various countries and even the people of Zhao talk about the king."
"Oh? What are they talking about me?" When King Zhao heard this, he wanted to know that he had lived in the deep palace for a long time, and the people around him were talking to him, but he also wanted to hear other people who had little to do with him.
"I said that I used Zhao Kuo incorrectly, which led to the Battle of Changping that almost ruined the fate of Zhao State. I also used Zhao Mu's villain. All the officials and ministers in the court resented me, saying that I was a foolish monarch who was inhumane." As soon as the question was answered, King Zhao laughed at himself and asked and answered himself.
"It's true that such a great king, so I say that the world's vision is too one-sided and narrow. They only look at the surface but not the essence."
"When I met the king yesterday, although I saw that the king had excessive alcohol and sex, and he valued Zhao Mu and others for the country and government, he was indeed a foolish monarch on the surface, but I think it was not."
Wang Li first said that King Zhao was criticized by the world, but after a change of the subject, King Zhao suddenly wanted to know how this scholar, who is a scholar, is like a talented man, thinks of me.
"First talk about excessive wine and sex?" Wang Li pointed to the maids in the square: "As the king, you have a country, drink some wine and find some women? Moreover, the king's entertainment is not just a burden to the fate of a country and the pressure of a country. Under pressure, he just vents his wine and sex."
When Wang Li said this, King Zhao nodded repeatedly: "Yes, after the battle of Changping, King Zhaoxiang of Qin sent 500,000 troops to surround Handan, and later, Yan people took advantage of the situation to rob. Other countries watched Yan take action, but they were really waiting and watching."
"If General Lian Po had not defeated the Yan people in a row, showing that our country of Zhao still has strength, otherwise other countries would be like wolves. You will be destroyed in one mouthful, and my country of Zhao will be destroyed in an instant, and I, the king, will not be able to say."
King Zhao shook his head, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes: "In fact, although General Lian Po kept winning and defeating Yan people at this time, it was just that I, Zhao State, did not know the truth, how could I, the king?"
"In the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Handan the next year, these two battles lost nearly 500,000 young and strong people in Zhao State. Especially in the Battle of Changping, we went to Zhao State for 400,000 soldiers. Bai Qi's killing talent was really good." When King Zhao said Bai Qi, he just gritted his teeth.
"After the War in Handan, there are only two troops that can fight in our country now. One is under the jurisdiction of General Li Mu, but this unit wants to guard the north and guard against the Huns. It must not be moved lightly, otherwise the consequences of the Huns and Huns in the north will be unimaginable."
"The other part is the soldiers under General Lian Po's command now. Apart from this, they can't show any power to fight and can only guard the area. Although General Lian Po keeps defeating at this time, if there is one other country to attack, I, Da Zhao, will not be able to fight back."
"It's a pity that Yan State. If there was no Battle of Changping, I would have to defeat him and destroy the country. I would capture the King of Yan Xi and humiliate him in every way to relieve my hatred."
"It's just that my Great Zhao is different from the past. The King of Yan likes to condemn peace. Although I refuse to agree for the time being, I actually have to agree. Otherwise, other countries will not sit idly by and watch Yan destroy it for me, and will not agree for the time being. I just want to cut off a few more cities."
Wang Li's previous words were actually just a different way to fool King Zhao to gain his favor. However, he didn't expect that King Zhao seemed stupid, but he knew the national situation very well. He just listened to his words and did not look like a foolish monarch?
If he was really confused, how could he sit firmly on the Great Zhao Jiangshan? If the ignorant king was confused, he would destroy the country. The King of Jin was incompetent, and there were three families who divided Jin. The King of Qi was incompetent, and there were even a Tian family who replaced Jiang.
At this time, King Zhao said something that Wang Li suddenly had a new understanding of him, and at the same time he could get King Zhao to talk to him. He also knew that his position in King Zhao's heart was even more different. The king of a country was called me, so how could he talk to others at will?
"Haha, sir, let's talk about it, how can I not be confused if I use a villain like Zhao Mu?" King Zhao confided and released all the words he had been depressed in his heart for a long time, and he felt that his body and mind were very happy.
"King, I have wandered away from all countries outside the territory, and have talked with wise men and even kings of various countries, and have summarized the way to govern the country in two words." Wang Li compared it, and King Zhao immediately asked, "Which two words?"
"Check and balance." Wang Li said it directly to King Zhao. After hearing this, King Zhao's eyes lit up. His various methods were just the instinct to consolidate power. He really couldn't tell a truth. Now Wang Li said something like he was talking about his heart.
"Mr. Just a word made me feel like I was shaking the clouds and mists to see the blue sky. Mr. and I will quickly talk to me in detail about this way of governing the country with the word "check and balance".
"Haha." Wang Li laughed: "The king used villains like Zhao Mu to suppress the court, and also placed villains in the army of General Li Mu and Lian Po. This is the way to check and balance."
"Not to mention Zhao Mu, I will talk about the army, the king. Can you tell me why the most glorious thing in the world is for a soldier?"
"Sir, please say whatever you want, but you don't have to do this, and I feel itchy." King Zhao was full of eagerness and desire, but no one had ever told him these words, and he really wanted to understand them.
"The army is a place where strong people are worshipped. The greatest honor of soldiers and officers is to follow an invincible general, conquer cities and territories, be invincible and invincible."
"If a general is true, he will inevitably threaten the safety of the king. This is not a question of whether he wants or does not want, but the officers and soldiers under his command. At that time, even if the general doesn't want it, he will be kidnapped by the entire army and do earth-shaking things."
"So, for such a warrior, it is necessary to use it because of his talent, and it is also very useful, but there is a check and balance." King Zhao agreed with it.
"Your Majesty, you hate Bai Qi, who deeply hates the King of Wu'an of Qin, so he died because of this. Bai Qiqi was in a short time, but he fought from the bottom. With countless military merits and above, he was defeated all the way and was invincible. He was named Wu'an and became the lord. Such deeds made him an idol of the entire Qin army and feared the King of Qin and the nobles."
"Before the Changping War, the King of Qin did not think about letting Wu'an Lord go to the battlefield. He really knew that he was too powerful and did not want him to make such unparalleled achievements again. He was already Wu'an Lord. If he made his merits again, how to reward him? It is difficult to reward him with great merits. He is so powerful that he will be shocked."
"So, when the war started, it was not Wu'an Jun Bai Qi who commanded the Qin army, but Wang He, the left president of Qin State. However, Wang He was facing General Zhao Lianpo. General Lianpo was too old to use troops, and Wang He could not defeat him at all. If the situation continued to stalemate, it would be very detrimental to Qin State."
"At this time, the King of Qin had no choice but to use Wu'an Jun Bai Qi. As soon as Bai Qi came out, the situation in Changping changed fundamentally. The king must not have to say more about what happened next."
Wang Li interpreted the Battle of Changping from another perspective for King Zhao, and only heard King Zhao nodding repeatedly. "So that's how it is. It's hateful that Bai Qi came out and he could see the rumors that I, Zhao Xushi, made rumors, spread all over the court. It's even more hateful that I heard the rumors and replaced General Lian Po with Zhao Kuo, which made a big mistake."
"But Bai Qi made such an invincible contribution and did not end up well. The battle of Changping ended. The King of Qin and the Prime Minister of Qin Fan Ju were already impatient to attack him. This was the year after the war. Otherwise, the Qin army would sweep Handan with a great victory, and our Zhao State would be unstoppable. This was because he was afraid that Bai Qi would establish the merit of destroying the country again. The more difficult it would be to cure, he would be recalled."
"This peace talk gave me a breath of breath, so I, Da Zhao, calmly mobilized troops to integrate their forces and reorganized their defense. The next year, King Zhaoxiang of Qin attacked Zhao again, and sent 500,000 troops to hunt Handan. If the siege was not defeated for a year, it was thanks to the breathing line."
"As for Bai Qi, as the teacher said, his achievements are hard to reward, and he shocked his master. He made such great achievements, but later he was sentenced to death for the King of Qin."
King Zhao took a deep breath and closed his eyes, as if he was savoring the hard years of the past, and it took him a long time to open his eyes.
"Mr. has not been in Qin and Zhao, nor has he experienced the Changping War, but he is so insightful about the battle of Changping, and is even more profound in governing the country. His talent is enough to be comparable to Lu Shang who had been in the Zhou Dynasty for 800 years, and even Lu Shang is much worse than Mr. Zhi."
"It is my blessing to meet Mr. Today, I am lucky to meet Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao, please accept my worship. I hope Mr. Zhao can do my best to assist me with Mr. Zhao Qiangsheng."
As King Zhao said, he fell to the ground and bowed to Wang Li, almost scared Wang Li. The reaction of King Zhao was really beyond his expectations. He had made a fool of himself to deepen his impression in King Zhao's heart and make him feel like a close friend. He never thought it would be like this.
"King, how can this be done? Why is this? Please get up quickly, please get up quickly, please get up quickly." Wang Li hurriedly went to help him, but King Zhao was determined to bow to him. He helped him hard, but he couldn't help him up.
"Sir, are you also afraid that you will be too successful? Sir, please rest assured. I will treat you as King Wen treats Lv Shang, King Wu defeats Zhou and establishes the foundation of the Great Zhou. Lv Shang is granted the country to Qi. As long as you can assist me in the strong and prosperous Great Zhao, I am willing to grant you a title for you. Please pity me for thousands of people in the Great Zhao, so I will agree to you."
