The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 446 If Your Majesty persists in his own way, the day of the fall of the Zhao Dynasty is not far away

Over the past few years, relying on his talent and intelligence as well as an unknown martial art, he not only survived training to death without anyone teaching him, but he also achieved some success, at least on par with the elite disciples of smaller sects. Moreover, with his rich experience in survival, he would be no pushover if a life-and-death fight really came up.

That broken sword had long been replaced with a sharp sword. Although it was still worthless, at least no one would laugh at it when it was unsheathed.

No matter what, living conditions are getting better and better. Although we are still poor, at least we don’t have to steal or rob to survive.

Over the years, he has become knowledgeable and has never slacked off in his studies. He has been learning eagerly and pondering everything he can see.

Putting aside other things, the writing systems and accents of the five countries of Wei, Han, Chu, Qi and Zhao are so familiar that no one would doubt that he is a local.

Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Even if you don’t know when the opportunity will come, or even if it never comes, you should always be prepared.

A gentleman hides his ability and waits for the right time to act, and when he acts he will hit the target with one strike.

Ambitious men often pay attention to the world.

Since the King of Qin ascended the throne, he has seen clearly everything that happened in the world.

And now, Yao Jia thinks the opportunity has come.

The first step is to surrender to Zhao.

He has been in Handan for more than a year. Although he is not very rich, he was born in the market and has traveled all over the world. He is very good at networking and has made many friends. He also has a clear understanding of the intricate relationships in Handan city.

He also discovered something very interesting, that is, Lord Guo Kai did not seem to be the loyal and virtuous minister as rumored.

Yes, Lord Guo Kai has a very high reputation and a very good name.

The disguise is also very good.

He is honest and incorruptible, upright, resourceful and decisive, brave and wise, and he is also loyal to the Great Zhao and the King.

However, there are still some small doubts.

Although Lord Guo Kai had a very high status and reputation, it was normal for people to come to him to become his followers, but it was very strange that his personal bodyguard was actually a peerless master, so skilled that there were few people like him in the whole world.

With Lord Guo Kai's current status and position, it is unlikely that he would have a guard of such ability.

It's a waste of talent for such a master to be a guard.

Not only that, in addition to this peerless master, there are two other masters who are also Lord Guo Kai's guards. And these two guards don't seem to be centered around Lord Guo Kai, but rather around that master.

These masters usually suppress their strength and pretend that they are not that strong. Even though they have met countless people, it is still not easy to tell them apart. If they were ordinary people, it would be even harder to find them.

Putting these points together, the situation becomes quite intriguing.

This is not the end. The State of Zhao has been declining in recent years, but Lord Guo Kai is getting richer and richer. This is totally inconsistent with the reward given to him by the king. The gap is too big.

Although he was well disguised and kept a low profile on weekdays, Yao Jia still discovered something unusual after years of close attention. He also discovered that someone was secretly and low-key transporting a large amount of treasures and gold from the mansion and hiding them in different places.

The box was not big, but the ruts were so deep. It was unlikely that it was anything else except gold.

Although Lord Guo Kai was highly trusted by the king, he mainly accompanied the king in attending to state affairs, advising on responses, and traveling to various countries as envoys. He did not do anything particularly lucrative.

So where did he get all that gold, silver and treasure? Why did he do it in secret?
An upright person should not have anything shameful.

An upright person will not act secretly, unless he is not an upright person.

What’s even more interesting is that although the three ridiculously strong guards of Lord Guo Kai spoke with the accents of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao, Qi and Wei, based on Yao Jia’s many years of experience, he still heard a little bit of the Qin accent in one of them.

A small doubt is nothing, but when so many doubts are added together, it becomes very interesting.

In particular, we should analyze all the advice and actions of Lord Guo Kai, and then look at the situation in the world and those who will benefit in the end.

That would be even more interesting.

It is not an easy thing to see so much in more than a year.

Carefulness, patience and caution are all essential.

If one thing is missing, either nothing will be accomplished or you will die.

Being in the midst of raging waves is like riding the waves. Only those with great wisdom and courage can do it.

Yao Jia confidently found an opportunity and met Guo Kai's guard, the first-class secret guard, Shi Wei.

It only took half a cup of tea for Shi Wei to bring Yao Jia into Guo Kai's mansion, and within a cup of tea, the next day Guo Kai introduced Yao Jia to King Zhao Daoxiang.

King Zhao Daoxiang looked at the man in front of him who was described by Guo Qing as a great talent. He was indeed handsome and well-mannered, but his clothes were too simple and had patches on them. It was said that he was just a ranger before and came from a humble background.

With a smile on his lips, his eyes were quite confident. He was not afraid in front of me and had a very high spirited demeanor.

King Zhao Daoxiang nodded in his heart, feeling quite satisfied. Although he judged people by appearance, at least he did not judge people by status.

After Yao Jia paid his respects, King Zhao Daoxiang spoke first: "Mr. Yao Jia, may I ask what you would like to teach me?"

Yao Jia replied: "Your Majesty, do you know that Zhao is now in a precarious situation and will be doomed at any moment?"

King Zhao Daoxiang raised his eyebrows and said, "Sir, please feel free to speak your mind. I am always happy to hear your criticism."

Yao Jia said: "Since you ascended the throne, your Majesty has worked hard and diligently to save Zhao from its decline, but the fundamental crisis has not been resolved. Do you know?"

King Zhao Daoxiang said, "Sir, please make your words clearer."

Yao Jia smiled and said, "Your Majesty, a wise king, how could you not know that the threat to us is the Qin State in the west."

"Qin is a country of tigers and wolves. Its soldiers and horses are strong and powerful, and it is unstoppable. Now the King of Qin is in power, and his reputation is known all over the world. Since he took the throne, he has pacified Jinyang, blocked the pass to Guandong, stabilized the government, grasped the power, recruited heroes, opened channels and roads, and ruled the world."

"They successively captured more than 20 cities in Han and more than 20 cities in Chu. Wei even lost the land of Hedong and Henei in the heart of the country. Even more than 30 cities along the Yellow River were captured, breaking the backbone of Shandong. The territory has already bordered Qi."

"Even the Great Zhao was taken by Qin, with more than 30 cities. The precious land of Hejian, far away in the East China Sea, was also taken, becoming a strategic location for Qin."

"Looking at the general situation of the world, Qin is as strong as a tiger facing a flock of sheep. Its momentum is unstoppable. The momentum of Qin's invasion of the world is known to all the blind and deaf."

"Of the six states in Guandong, Qin has always followed the policy of making friends with distant countries and attacking nearby ones. If it wants to annex the world, it must attack Han, Wei, Zhao and Chu. The first country it will destroy must be Han!"

"South Korea has long been a vassal of Qin, and it is a small country with few people. Qin can easily destroy it. South Korea is not even a stumbling block now."

"I would like to ask your Majesty, in this situation where South Korea is dispensable, who should be the most important target for Qin?"

King Zhao Daoxiang laughed and said, "Sir, there is no need to exaggerate. The King of Qin has always been kind and virtuous, and his reputation for benevolence and trustworthiness is known throughout the world. How could he do something unreasonable and attack another country?"

Yao Jia said solemnly: "Now the tiger and the rhinoceros are out of the cage, and the beast is lying on the steps. Your Majesty is actually pinning his own safety worth millions of gold on the kindness of the beast. Why are you deceiving yourself and others like this?"

King Zhao Daoxiang snorted coldly and said, "Sir, you are wrong. How can a man be without virtue if he is not a beast? Since he ascended the throne, the King of Qin has always been benevolent and righteous. He has gained cities and lands for a reason. He is not a greedy, unreasonable and immoral beast."

"What's more, Qin and Zhao finally became friends after a lot of hard work. They stopped fighting and formed an alliance through marriage. The two countries have long since turned from enemies to friends and have a close relationship. My sister married the King of Qin and gave birth to a son. Both mother and son are loved. Qin has helped Zhao many times. The two countries are as close as brothers."

"Sir, please do not repeat your absurd remarks! Otherwise, I will not let you off easily!"

Yao Jia laughed loudly and said, "From what I have seen from your past deeds, you are a wise ruler who is determined to make progress. That is why you are so open and honest, and what you say is all from your heart."

"But hearing about the king is worse than meeting him in person. I never thought that the king is such a naive person."

"In this age of great strife, the struggles of the world are life-and-death struggles. Your Majesty is placing the safety of the country and the foundation of your ancestors on the friendship of your great enemy and the in-laws of your women. How unwise!"

"If Your Majesty persists in doing what he wants, the day of the fall of the Zhao State is not far away."

"It's a pity that the foundation of our ancestors ended in this dynasty."

"Hahaha, how ridiculous, how ridiculous, how pathetic, I really don't know how Your Majesty will have the face to face our ancestors in the future!"

Guo Kai was so anxious that he quickly advised: "Sir, why do you say such things? How can you be so presumptuous? Please apologize to the king!"

King Zhao Daoxiang was furious and shouted, "How dare you be so unreasonable and speak nonsense, you lunatic! I treated you with courtesy after you were recommended by Mr. Guo. How dare you speak such wild and evil words?"

"Come on, beat them out with sticks."

Guo Kai quickly advised, "Your Majesty, please wait a minute. Mr. Yao Jia was just angry for a moment and had no ill intentions. He was just rude for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Yao Jia laughed non-stop, not afraid at all, not panicking at all: "Your Majesty, there is no need to send anyone, I will kill myself."

"I am a Wei man. I have long seen the ferocious tiger-eating behavior of Qin. I cannot bear to see the world being annexed by the tyrannical Qin. That is why I risked my life to make a warning for the sake of the people of the world. At present, only Zhao can stop Qin's annexation. But I never thought that this is the only hope, the only country, and there is such a great king."

"Oh my God! There is no hope in the world. What is the point of keeping me alive?"

As Yao Jia was about to hit the beam in the hall, Guo Kai was quick to stop him.

He tried to stop him and persuaded him: "Hey, sir, why are you doing this? Why are you doing this?"

As the two were arguing, King Zhao Daoxiang stopped getting angry and instead stepped down the stairs, bowed, and said sincerely, "Sir, please don't feel bad about yourself. What you just said is very true, and I agree with it. I just tried to test you with my words, so please don't blame me."
