Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Page 481

Zhou Shaofen couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, the Queen has always been a very sensible person. If it wasn't for something that must be said, she shouldn't be so impatient. Please call the Queen to see what happened. what."

Zhou Shaofen couldn't bear it anymore. If King Zhao didn't summon the queen at this time, then the plans of the Zhou brothers to make things bigger would be ruined.

After hearing Zhou Shaofen's words, Zhao Kuo couldn't help laughing to himself, you thought this was your path to success, but you didn't know it was actually a trap.

In order to make the whole scene more realistic, Zhao Kuo immediately objected: "Zhou Qing's words are wrong, the queen is in charge of the palace, that is, the king's family affairs.

Since it is a family matter, it is not up to us outsiders and courtiers to intervene. If there is any matter, the king and the queen can discuss it and resolve it, so let's wait until the court discussion is over. "

When Zhao Kuo said these words, on the one hand, he maintained his usual image of being against Zhou Shaofen, and on the other hand, he also used a very subtle means to prove to Zhou Shaofen that Zhao Kuo was actually not prepared.

Sure enough, after hearing what Zhao Kuo said, Zhou Shaofen calmed down a little and said to Zhao Kuo, "What you said, Mr. Wu Xin, is not right. Your Majesty is the master of our country of Zhao. His family affairs are The state affairs of our state of Zhao.

Since it is a state matter, we are of course qualified to share the worries and solve the problems for His Majesty on this matter.

If someone betrayed the king, then we can also help the king to eliminate this person. "

Zhou Shaofen's last words came out, Zhao Wang's expression suddenly changed.

King Zhao suddenly remembered what Queen Zhou had said before, which was the betrayal of Concubine Li.

Queen Zhou suddenly came to look for King Zhao in a hurry today, could it be because of this matter?

Zhao Wang's eyes turned around Zhao Kuo and Zhou Shaofen, and finally said: "Since this is the case, let the queen come in and see what she wants to say."

After a while, Queen Zhou walked into the hall.

As the courtiers, Zhao Kuo and others naturally stood up one after another, saluted and greeted Queen Zhou.

Queen Zhou's expression seemed rather hasty, she just nodded politely towards Zhao Kuo and others, then fixed her eyes on Zhao Wang, and said to Zhao Wang: "Your Majesty, do you still remember my minister?" Is that what the concubine said before?

Today the concubine has already got a definite answer, some people have indeed betrayed the king.

Also invite the king and his concubines to know the truth. "

After Queen Zhou's voice fell, King Zhao's expression changed drastically.

For Zhao Wang, it proved that Concubine Li was betrayed, which is definitely not something that can make him happy.

King Zhao immediately stood up angrily and said, "Then what are you waiting for?

Immediately take the widow to have a look. "

It was at this time that Zhou Shaofen's face flashed a smug expression, and he quickly said, "My lord, what happened?

It's better to let the old minister follow the king to have a look. "

Chapter 959 See the poor dagger, the testimony of the eunuch order

Of course Zhou Shaofen wanted to see it.

If you don't go, wouldn't this well-prepared drama be completely ruined?

Facing Zhou Shaofen's request, Zhao Kuo questioned again in a timely manner: "Zhou Qing, what do you mean by this? Don't you think the king can't solve the problem?"

Zhou Shaofen snorted, and said very displeasedly: "Wu Xinjun, do you know what happened? Are you just talking about it here?"

Zhao Kuo let out a hey, and said, "I don't know, do you know?"

Zhou Shaofen said: "I..." Zhou Shaofen suddenly realized something, and changed his words wittily: "I don't know what happened, but it's normal for me to want to see something that makes the queen so concerned?"

Zhou Shaofen was quite quick on the spot. If Zhao Kuo's rhetorical question just now made it clear that Zhou Shaofen knew what happened in the palace in advance, wouldn't it mean that Zhou was framing it?

Zhou Shaofen applauded secretly in his heart: "I almost fell for Wu Xinjun!"

After thinking about it, I didn't forget to give Zhao Kuo a look.

Zhao Kuo took a panoramic view of all this, ignored it, and waited for King Zhao to speak.

Zhao Wang thought for a while, and immediately said: "Everyone go together, this matter, you will know when you go there!"

At this time, King Zhao also thought clearly. Anyway, the matter has come to this point, so he should just pull it all out and figure it out.

If there is really a problem with Concubine Li, then King Zhao will deal with Concubine Li on the spot, and Zhao Kuo, as Concubine Li's backer outside the palace, has nothing to say.

Conversely, if Concubine Li has no problem, then King Zhao will deal with Queen Zhou in turn, and Zhou Shaofen and Zhou Shaoliang will also have nothing to say.

As soon as King Zhao opened his mouth, everyone rushed to the harem immediately.

There are too many people, so I don't take a car, just walk.

Zhao Kuo watched the hurrying footsteps of King Zhao and the others ahead, glanced at Pang Nuan, Xu Li and Li Mu beside him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The four remained calm and continued to follow.

After a while, everyone came to a magnificent palace. Needless to say, this palace was naturally the palace of Concubine Li.

Looking at the palace in front of her, a look of jealousy flashed across Queen Zhou's face. You must know that this palace is completely comparable to Queen Zhou's palace. How much she loves Concubine Li!But the queen of Zhou Zhou was a little happy again, because she knew very clearly that as long as today passed, the concubine Li, this lowly maidservant, would no longer disturb her mind.

As long as this "small goal" can be achieved, what is a little grievance right now?

Several guards standing at the palace gate hurriedly saluted after seeing King Zhao, but it was thought that King Zhao pointed at them directly: "Take down these guys first!"

If Concubine Li really had an affair with a man in this palace, it is impossible for these guards to be ignorant.

Afterwards, King Zhao strode directly into the palace.

Zhao Kuo and others followed closely behind. Just after walking a few steps, they heard a burst of laughter like silver bells coming from the palace.

"Interesting, you are really interesting!"

Everyone present had been in contact with Concubine Li, so of course they could clearly hear that it was Concubine Li's voice.

The expression on Zhao Wang's face suddenly changed. At this moment, he seemed to transform into a fierce tiger that could kill anyone at any time, rushing into the palace.

The action of King Zhao was so sudden that Zhao Kuo and others who followed behind King Zhao had not had time to catch up, and they had already heard King Zhao's roar from inside: "What's going on, what's going on here? Where is the man from?"

After hearing these words, Zhao Kuo and others all speeded up their pace and walked into the palace.

There are two figures in the palace, one is Concubine Li, and the other is a man.

King Zhao's face was ashen at the moment, pointing at the man, he questioned Concubine Li angrily.

After seeing King Zhao, Concubine Li was overjoyed at first, then she was confused by King Zhao's questioning, and said, "Why is Your Majesty so angry?

He's just a juggler. "

Zhao Wang sneered and said, "Artist?

Why would an entertainer appear in the widow's palace swaggeringly, but the widow didn't know about it? "

Accompanied by these words of King Zhao, everyone present once again looked at the artist in the mouth of Concubine Li.

He has a strong body, tall and burly, and his expression looks a bit simple and honest. Although he is not the handsome type, he can give people a very solid sense of security.

This kind of muscular man is the favorite of many dissolute aristocratic women.

Because of Zhao Wang's sudden anger, the artist man was also dumbfounded, and he knelt down on the ground, trembling.

No matter how tall and mighty a man was, he obviously couldn't calm down when facing the monarch of the world's most powerful country.

Concubine Li also saw the people behind King Zhao, especially Queen Zhou, her expression froze and began to change: "My lord, why did you bring so many people here?"

Queen Zhou sneered at the right time: "Concubine Li, Concubine Li, you brought a man into the palace privately, causing the court to be filthy. Now the king and all the important ministers have witnessed it with their own eyes. What else do you have to say!"

Concubine Li seemed to understand it now, and immediately screamed: "I didn't do this, what you say is completely framed!"

Queen Zhou chuckled and said, "Framed?

There has long been a regulation in the harem of Dazhao, except for the palace guards, any real man who enters the palace must report to the palace.

Now you keep talking about the artist entering the palace, why doesn't this palace know about it? "

Concubine Li said angrily: "You are just talking nonsense, you are completely framed!"

Queen Zhou laughed loudly: "Really?

Then tell me, why did you quietly share a room with this entertainer, a man and a widow, while the king is away?

And what you said just now, the king and all the important ministers have heard it, and the evidence is as solid as a mountain! "

A quarrel erupted between the two women, while King Zhao stared at Concubine Li with an extremely livid face. Although he hadn't spoken yet, everyone knew that there must be a volcano in King Zhao's heart at this moment, which might erupt at any time.

At this time, Zhao Kuo also spoke: "Your Majesty, I feel that this matter may be a misunderstanding.

How about this, since Concubine Li said that this person is an entertainer, why not just let this person perform and see if he has juggling skills? "

Zhao Kuo's proposal was immediately approved by Zhao Wang: "Okay, come and perform, if you can't perform, hum!"

Hearing the words, the entertainer immediately stood up, took out a few wooden bowls, and began to perform.

These performances are actually not new to Zhao Kuo at all. They are all kinds of "tricks" and "magic" videos that have been demonstrated hundreds of times in later generations. It was so fresh, it even made Li Mu let out a few surprises and praises.

A few minutes later, the artist who finished the performance wiped the sweat from his head, and respectfully said to King Zhao: "Please be careful, my lord, Xiaomin is really just a trick performer. When he was in the folks, he often served as concubine Li. I was ordered to perform, but now I have been recruited by Concubine Li to perform a new trick."

Concubine Li hurriedly said: "This matter is just like the king, and the concubines just want to see if he has anything new. It will be the king's birthday in a few days, so let him give the king a good performance on his birthday. "

Zhao Kuo's eyes flickered slightly, and he coughed and said, "From this point of view, I'm afraid this matter is indeed a misunderstanding.

Think about it, my lord, isn't what we heard just now concubine Li praising this entertainer's tricks?

This artist is indeed superb, and even the ministers are dazzled by it. Isn't it strange that Concubine Li made a few compliments?

Also please think twice ah. "

Although Zhao Kuo didn't say it directly, everyone could hear that Zhao Kuo was implying King Zhao, saying that Queen Zhou was making a false accusation!Queen Zhou became anxious when she heard this.

Things have come to this point, the two sides can be said to be trying to see each other, and they are fighting each other shirtless. It is absolutely impossible for Queen Zhou to back down at this time.

Queen Zhou thought so, and the two men behind Queen Zhou, the two Zhou brothers, thought so even more.

So Zhou Shaofen immediately said: "Wu Xinjun, you are wrong to say that, as a concubine of a king, you must pay attention to etiquette at any time.

If this incident gets out today, and it is said that the king's woman is in the same room with a man who is alone and widowed, do you think it will have a serious impact on the king, and will it cause a lot of unnecessary rumors?

What's more, I don't think it's easy to say whether these are rumors or facts.

The queen has always been dignified, virtuous, and very stable. No one really thinks that the queen will make false accusations against others casually, right? "

After Zhao Wang heard it, his thoughts that had started to lean towards Concubine Li and Zhao Kuo began to waver again.

There is no way, it is really that both sides understand Zhao Wang quite well, and every time they speak, they speak of the weakness in Zhao Wang's heart, which makes Zhao Wang unconsciously inclined to believe it.

Concubine Li was also angry, and said, "Zhou Shaofen, what are you talking about?

Although Bengong's family background is really not good, but he has always been clean and self-sacrificing. He has never tricked the king in anything, let alone any rumors! "

Zhou Shaofen has reached this point anyway, and his relationship with Concubine Li is unlikely to be any worse, so he immediately said proudly: "Concubine Li, if you can't explain why you want to be in the same room with this man today, then I can't clear your suspicion!"

Seeing this, Queen Zhou immediately said: "Eunuch Ling has been investigating this matter for a long time, so you might as well ask Eunuch Ling to testify!"

Zhou's side had obviously gone all out, and immediately launched a general attack.

Make it or break it!Looking at this scene, King Zhao became more and more hesitant.

At first, I thought Concubine Li was cheating on her, but after being told by Concubine Li and Zhao Kuo, she thought it was not. But now that Zhou is so sure, could it be that Zhou has some new evidence?

Zhao Kuo also spoke at this time: "So, what about the eunuch order?"

This sentence reminded Zhao Wang, Zhao Wang immediately said: "Quickly, call the eunuch Ling!"

If Wang Zhao is asked to find a trustworthy and neutral enough confidant at this time, after much deliberation, it must be eunuch Ling.

Eunuch Ling was originally by Zhao Wang's side, so he appeared immediately: "Your Majesty, the old minister is here."

Zhao Wang stared at the eunuch order, and said coldly: "You should come to a conclusion today about the matter that you were asked to investigate earlier."

Queen Zhou also stared at Eunuch Ling, with a glimmer of pride in her phoenix eyes.

In Queen Zhou's view, this wave is absolutely sure.

Zhou Shaofen did not look at eunuch Ling, but at Zhao Kuo.

why?

Because Zhou Shaofen also felt sure in his heart, so he wanted to see the disappointment, shock, and frustration on Zhao Kuo's face immediately after eunuch Ling testified against Concubine Li!Zhao Kuo has always given these negative emotions to Zhou Shaofen mercilessly. This time, Zhou Shaofen will also give Zhao Kuo a big gift!Under the watchful eyes of King Zhao, the eunuch Ling hesitated, and said: "Your Majesty, the evidence is not quite perfect at the moment, and the old minister thinks" Zhao Wang directly interrupted the eunuch Ling: "I want you to give me the right now, immediately, immediately." One result for the widow!"

The eunuch was helpless, took a deep breath, and could only grit his teeth and said, "I would like to report to your majesty, after receiving your majesty's order, the old minister did secretly investigate Concubine Li's palace for a period of time, including everyone in the palace.

After the veteran's investigation, at present there is no evidence that Concubine Li had an affair with a man outside the palace at all, so if the king wants the veteran to draw a conclusion now, the veteran can only insist that Concubine Li is innocent! "

After eunuch Ling finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire hall changed instantly.

Zhou Shaofen's eyes widened.

Zhou Shaoliang's body shook violently.
