After hearing Zhao Xin's words, Zhao Yong looked at Le Yi and said with a slight movement of his mouth, "I remember you, you are the Le Yi who once made contributions to the Qin mission to rescue the emperor, right?"

Le Yi was surprised and happy. Unexpectedly, the Lord Father would remember such a small person as himself. He quickly lowered his head and said respectfully, "Returning to the Lord Father, it is a humble position."

However, he didn't know that Zhao Yong's most proud ability was to remember thousands of different faces and names effortlessly. In the imperial guards and the Yulin, he could easily call out any person's name. It is precisely because of this that his subordinates who had followed him were loyal to him and would not easily betray him.

Seeing that the master's father looked at the city gate behind him, Le Yi came to his senses and quickly looked up and ordered the subordinates on the top of the city to open the city gate.

With the order of the chief general, these Zhao soldiers naturally did not dare to make things difficult for them anymore. Soon dozens of people came down to work together to open the heavy city gate.

Since the master's father intended to hide his identity, Le Yi did not dare to act rashly, so he guided the two of them in front of him. Zhao Yong and Zhao Xin did not get on the horse, but led the horse into the city.

He waved his subordinates back, and Le Yi saw that there was no one around, so he slowed down to the Lord's Father and lowered his voice to ask for instructions. "Master, do you need a humble job to send you back to Handan?"

This small city is called Shicheng, an important satellite city in northeastern Handan, which tightly blocks the road to Handan from Daidi. Seeing that his father was accompanied by Zhao Xin, Le Yi was worried that something might happen on the road. After all, Shicheng is still ten miles away from Handan, so he volunteered.

Zhao Yong did not answer, but stopped and looked at Le Yi and said, "Have you heard anything unusual in Handan City these days?"

Le Yi thought about it and nodded hesitantly, "I heard some, but I don't know if it's what you want from the Lord Father."

Zhao Yong said in a deep voice, "Speak and listen."

"promise."

"Ten days ago, something suddenly circulated in Handan City, saying that Xiong Huai, the King of Chu who was detained by Qin three years ago, escaped from Xianyang and ran eastward to Zhao and defected to our Zhao State, hoping that our Zhao State can uphold justice for him."

Zhao Yong and Zhao Xin looked at each other and felt a little strange in their hearts.

Such secret matters involving the court have always been strictly blocked, but why did it be circulated among the people?

Could it be that someone did it on purpose?

Zhao Yong looked at Le Yi and said in a deep voice, "Continue talking."

"promise."

Le Yi bowed and responded, paused and continued, "There are rumors that the master's father was not in Handan at this time. The king and the prime minister did not dare to take in King Xiong Huai because they were afraid of Qin. Instead, they forced the border soldiers to expel Xiong Huai from the country. Later, it was reported that Xiong Huai fled south in a hurry to seek refuge in Wei, but was captured by the Qin army on the way. In shame and anger, he vomited blood and rushed to fight. Now he is dying and his life is in full swing."

After hearing this, Zhao Yong was furious and shouted: "What!"

The roar was particularly harsh on the streets at night, and soldiers in the distance looked over. Seeing that the master's father looked so terrifying, Le Yi and Zhao Xin were really frightened in their hearts, and they looked at each other and bowed their heads without saying a word.

Zhao Yong's eyes widened and shouted heavily for a few breaths before suppressing the anger in his heart.

He thought that even if Zhao He and Fei Yi and others did not advocate getting along with Qin, Zhao He, who was a son, would have to wait for his return to the court before he would deal with it. Not to mention Fei Yi who had followed him for many years, he could not know his ambitions for Qin. Zhao Yong thought that Fei Yi would suppress the struggle and detain Xiong Huai for the time being at the same time delayed the time with Qin Xu.

But it was Zhao He and Fei Yi, the son he once loved the most, and the minister he once trusted, but now he left him aside without hesitation, and even if he had not sent someone to ask for instructions in a symbolic way. If Lou Yan had not sent Zhao Xin to send him to send him to the letter, he would have said that he was still in the dark now.

Zhao He and Fei Yi's actions not only made Zhao Yong lose the opportunity to defeat Qin State in a once-in-a-lifetime manner, but also made him feel heartbroken.

Betrayed by his beloved son and his closest friend is something that no man can bear, let alone him, Zhao Yong. What's more serious is that this move is undoubtedly announced to the people of the world that Zhao Yong has gradually lost control of Zhao.

Zhao Yong clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes flashed from time to time, which made people feel scared. This time he really had a murderous intention, to Fei Yi and the royal party.

Seeing that the master's father had not spoken for a long time, Zhao Xin stepped forward and whispered, "Master, I think it should be Lou Xiang who spread the news. He must have seen that he was powerless to stop the king, so this incident was spread among the people. He hoped that the people would put pressure on the king and the others and build momentum for the master's father."

Le Yi echoed, "That's right, as soon as this incident came out, the whole of Handan was full of curses, and the soldiers in the army were even more uproar. Everyone said that Zhao State was invincible for decades under the leadership of the Lord's father, and he was invincible. He had never feared any country. Even Qi and Qin State had to look at our faces. But as soon as the Lord's father abdicated, our Zhao State became so weak, which really made it difficult for the brothers to accept."

Zhao Yong had already recovered at this time. When he heard Zhao Xin and Le Yi's words, his anger was slightly relieved. He nodded and said, "Lou Yan has been my humerus for many years. At the critical moment, he still has to rely on him. Although the situation is beyond my control now, it is not too bad."

A sharp look flashed in his eyes and said again, "Zhao Xin, let's go back to the palace immediately. I want to see who dares to be presumptuous in front of me."

"No." Zhao Xin responded to his order, but there was no need to feel nervous in his heart.

The thing I fear most is finally going to happen, I hope it won't turn into a bloody palace transformation.

"Le Yi."

"I am humble." Le Yi felt relieved. Seeing that his father finally thought of him, he quickly responded loudly.

Zhao Yong stared at Le Yi's eyes and asked slowly: "What are you willing to follow me?"

Le Yi knelt down suddenly, beat his chest and roared in a low voice, "I will go through fire and water, and I will never refuse."

"Okay, take my talisman immediately and go to Pingyang to see Zhao Xi, and ask him to mobilize the three defenders in Pingyang, Wu'an taiwan, and Feicheng taiwan, and be on guard and wait for my news. If you don't see my messenger tomorrow at noon, you will immediately send troops to siege Handan."

"No." Le Yi was in a state of great excitement, and his hands trembled slightly, and he knew in his heart that he had already been the confidant of his father at this moment. From now on, whether he had a bright future or a dead person or a deceased family, it depends on his own luck.

"No need to be late." The master's father turned over and Zhao Xin hurriedly followed him and rushed towards Handan. The two of them rushed towards the city gate in front of him. Le Yi's personal soldiers had already shouted to open the city gate for him. Le Yi took out his mount from the camp, hurriedly explained a few words, and then rushed towards Pingyang Camp.

In the dark night, two fast horses galloped along the post road leading to Handan.

The journey of ten miles below the fast horse arrived in a flash, and soon the two arrived at the moat of the north gate of Handan. When the guards on the city tower saw someone coming, they gathered to look over and look.

Zhao Yong pulled the reins and shouted loudly beside the moat, raising his head to the guards on the city, "Open the city gate quickly."

The soldiers on the top of the city would shout loudly; "A curfew is here, no one is allowed to enter. Go back quickly, otherwise you will be beautiful under the arrows."

Zhao Yong sneered, "Look at who I am."

The defenders on the city were shocked. Who could call me a man in Zhao State except King Zhao and the master father? I hurriedly called my companions to raise the torches and shine them down, but Zhao Yong's cold gaze was met.

One of them exclaimed, "It's really the Lord Father. I've seen him." As soon as the words fell, the city suddenly became in chaos. Seeing that the Lord Father was at the city, these young soldiers of Zhao army dared not hesitate at all. They hurriedly opened the city gate and put down the suspension bridge in a panic, and knelt on both sides of the city gate and shouted long live.

Zhao Yong looked at them, but he just waved his whip and passed through the city gate like lightning. He and Zhao Xin rushed towards the palace. The leader of the Zhao army defender who was kneeling beside him was scared and hurriedly ran to report to the lieutenant's mansion in panic.

Handan in the night seemed particularly deserted, and the sensation of horse hooves fell heavily on the gravel road, which seemed particularly abrupt in the night. Zhao Xin secretly glanced at his master's father beside him. Under the moonlight, he frowned, and his expression had returned to normal. He no longer looked like he was angry just now. At this moment, his face was calm and calm.

Zhao Xin, who had been following the Lord's Father for a long time, knew in his heart that whenever he encountered a major event, the Lord's Father looked like this. In his words, only by keeping a clear mind can he make accurate judgments.

The tall palace tower was not far ahead, and the guards guarded by torches on the tower could be seen vaguely. Seeing that the master's father had no intention of stopping the horse and slowing down, Zhao Xin hurried behind him and shouted, "Master's father, wait."

Zhao Yong heard the sound and pulled it down, looked at Zhao Xin and frowned, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Xin urged him to go forward and join the Lord's Father, and said in a difficult manner. "Lord, this is the east gate of the palace and the city gate guarded by the Imperial Guards. It is better for us to detour the west gate, which is the residence of the minister. We will mobilize Yulin first and then go to see the king, so that we can be prepared for any trouble."

Zhao Yong looked at Zhao Xin and sneered, "Why, isn't the Imperial Guards not my army?"

Zhao Xin quickly waved his hand and explained, "I don't mean that, it's just... it's just that the Imperial Guards have been following the king for a long time, and they have always been against our Yulin. If the Lord Father goes alone, I'm afraid..."

Zhao Yong glared and said, "What are you afraid of?"

Zhao Xin gritted his teeth and said, "I am worried that any desperate desperate person will offend the Lord's Father."

Zhao Yong snorted coldly, "Zhao Xin, you underestimate me too much. This imperial guard has been with me for twenty-six years and has been changing masters for less than three years. Do you think they dare to be unfavorable to me?"

Seeing that Zhao Xin was still trying to speak, Zhao Yong waved his hand and said coldly, "No need to say more, I really don't believe it. I am still alive. The sky of Zhao State has changed. You don't need to say much, quickly enter the Yulin camp from Ximen and bring Yulin to me to get along with me."
