Walking in the city, Pang Gong looked at the young people beside him, and the heavy feeling in his heart seemed to have dissipated. Li Mu really didn't expect that he would meet Pang Gong here, so he smiled and talked about the situation in the frontier. Since Li Mu defeated the powerful Hu coalition, many herders outside the frontier wanted to graz in the clouds. Li Mu ordered that they should not make things difficult for these people. He turned the inside and outside of the clouds into an open pasture.

He also took the knights to patrol the border to prevent thieves, which led to a rapid increase in household registration in the clouds. Many herders settled here. Li Mu took out the reward from King Zhao to him. After converting the reward into livestock, he hired local herders to grazle him. This was because Li Mu discovered that when those who had nothing had a job to survive, they would not easily become thieves.

Yunzhong is a very important pastoral area in Zhao State. The most produced meat and horses are very important resources. Li Mu also added several large livestock areas to increase the number of plowing oxen and horses here, and organized local herders to trade various parts of Zhao State, using local livestock to exchange the required materials. Because this trade is an official trade in Zhao State, it can protect these herders from being deceived by merchants.

Li Mu is not only protecting the frontier, but also developing the frontier. When he greeted Zhao Kuo in the Yunzhong, Zhao Kuo had said many of his ideas, including such animal husbandry areas and foreign trade. Li Mu kept it in his heart. Now, he has finally begun to implement Zhao Kuo's ideas. Facts have proved that Zhao Kuo's ideas are indeed fine, and Yunzhong has developed rapidly.

With more and more household registrations, the livestock they raise is also increasing. The people here are gradually becoming richer. At the same time, the clouds also extend their hands towards the wider grassland. Li Mu began to build cities outside the border to increase the scope of the clouds. When Li Mu talked about his frontier, Pang Gong was so happy that he seemed to have seen the crowds of cattle and sheep on the field with his own eyes.

"Your approach is not only beneficial to the people in Yunzhong, but also to the people in various parts of Zhao. The increase in plowing oxen is a good thing... This is a good thing."

"Yes, this is all my brother told me..." Li Mu suddenly said, he seemed to be recalling something, but his face was full of bitterness. Li Mu said again: "He also told me that there are many sheep in the clouds. You can set up a textile area here, and use wool to make clothes to protect the cold, so that many people can be saved in winter..." Pang Gong smiled bitterly, and said: "He has always been thinking about those people..."

The two continued walking, and then Pang Gong said, "There are a few things that you must know..."

Li Mu nodded, and then Pang Gong said, "Liang Po attacked Le Cheng, both of them left Zhao State. Hearing that Lian Po went to Wei State, he was by Xinling Jun's side, and Le Cheng might have been killed..." Li Mu sighed and said, "I know this, I came for this matter. General Lian Po cannot rebel. I want Shangjun to invite him back."

Pang Gong shook his head quickly and said seriously: "Please don't mention this matter again. Of course, I also know that General Lian Po has no idea of ​​treason... But he took the lead in attacking Le Cheng, causing more than 20,000 soldiers of Zhao State to die in the battle. This is his fault! Shangjun is very angry now. As a general, if you plead for Lian Po, it will definitely arouse Shangjun's fear, so don't speak up."

"What should I do with General Lian Po?"

"Don't worry, the Lord Shang will realize sooner or later that it would be impossible without General Lian Po. At that time, I will definitely persuade him to send an envoy to invite General Lian Po back. The reason why I have to wait for you here is to tell you about this... After General Lian Po left, the only generals of Zhao State were you and General Lejian. General Lejian was in poor health and had been recuperating in the mansion during these days. If you were also afraid of Lian Po, then Zhao State would be really destroyed..."

Li Mu wanted to say something. The Zhao Kingdom in his heart had already perished when Ma Fujun was forced to leave.

However, looking at the white-haired Pang Gong in front of him, Li Mu was really unable to say anything. He nodded and asked again: "What's the second thing you want to tell me?"

Pang Gong was silent for a moment before asking, "Do you know me?" Li Mu frowned and thought for a long time before shook his head and said, "I don't know..." Pang Gong nodded and said, "He is Shangjun... friend, a few days ago, was named Jianxin Jun, and now he is the one who takes over me as the prime minister..."

Li Mu widened his eyes and asked, "Friend? Prime Minister?"

"However, this Jianxin Jun is still a little talented, not an incompetent person...", Pang Gong said, and said again, "I am already old and should give up my position to others..." The two of them chatted like this and finally came to the front of the palace. Seeing these two, the warriors rushed forward to pay their respects, without stopping them. The warriors took them into the palace.

When King Zhao learned that Li Mu was coming, he was very happy. However, he was still mourning, so he could not laugh or hold a banquet. He hurriedly walked out. Seeing Li Mu and Pang Gong, he was stunned and then walked up. The two saluted King Zhao, but King Zhao hurriedly helped them up. King Zhao grabbed Li Mu's hand with one hand and held Pang Gong with the other, and took them into the hall.

The current confidant ministers of King Zhao, such as Guo Kai and another Jianxin, are all getting up and waiting.

Guo Kai smiled. He had a grudge with Lian Po, but he had no grudges with Li Mu. Since King Zhao wanted to reuse him, Guo Kai would naturally not object. Anyway, Li Mu had no conflict of interest with him. The person who had a conflict of interest with him was actually opposite him. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Jianxinjun who was smiling not far away, his eyes were full of annoyance. He had always been taking the initiative to enthrone him as an important minister by King Zhao.

Who would have thought that this male favorite, who was born in the Six Valley, would seek an official position directly and even reach the top in one step.

Li Mu also noticed the new prime minister. The prime minister looked not old, tall and outstanding, and looked much better than Li Mu. He smiled and leaned towards Li Mu slightly. King Zhao pulled his two favorite generals into the hall and asked them to sit down. He sat in the upper position and then said, "Jun Wu'an, when I was young, I thought you were rude and not worthy of reusing... After growing up, I realized that my mistake was wrong. Please forgive me."

Hearing King Zhao say this, Li Mu just said, "I dare not."

King Zhao then said, "In the past few years, you have made great contributions to guarding the border. I cannot help but reward you. I will share all six cities including the people as fiefs. Please do not refuse!" After he said that, he looked at everyone and asked, "What are your objections?" Everyone, including Jianxin, all agreed with King Zhao, believing that Li Mu must receive such a reward.

Li Mu was a little confused. He probably didn't expect that the new king would value him so much.

He stood up to thank him, but King Zhao pulled him down and said, "You don't have to be too polite. I want to use you to command the army across the country! You have to visit me more in the future. When you come to the palace, the warriors cannot stop you. You can not take off your shoes or untied your sword, and you don't have to stand outside the hall and shout your name!" Guo Kai felt a little sad. Why is Li Mu so respectful???

But he still did not say anything to dissuade him, but instead nodded.

To be honest, Li Mu was really moved. Then, King Zhao asked him about the situation of the frontier. Li Mu also talked about the policies he implemented. King Zhao was even happier. He said that he would strongly support Li Mu's policies. Even if Li Mu was not in the frontier, these good policies would not be abolished. King Zhao then asked about the army, and Li Mu told him his own practice methods.

So, King Zhao also handed over the training of Zhao's army to Li Mu.

King Zhao could not hold a banquet, so Li Mu naturally followed Pang Gong and walked out of the palace and said to Pang Gong: "This new king is not as unbearable as the rumor..." Pang Gong was relieved. King Zhao could be said to have given him a surprise. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, General Lian Po will be invited back soon!"

After Li Mu left, Jianxinjun and Guo Kai stood beside King Zhao. King Zhao smiled and looked at Jianxinjun and asked, "Do you think I have given Wu'anjun too much?" Jianxinjun shook his head, he smiled, and then said, "For such a general, there are not many rewards." King Zhao laughed. If it weren't for Guo Kai beside him, he would have held Jianxinjun in his arms long ago.

This Jianxinjun, well, he looks good... In addition, he is the same as Long Yangjun.

The current King Zhao is the same as King Wei.

Therefore, although King Zhao likes Guo Kai, he obviously has to favor Jianxin Jun more. After all, the nature of the two parties is different. One is chatting during the day, and the other is chatting at night... Guo Kai was a little unhappy. He frowned and asked, "I think this kind of reward is too heavy. Wu'an Jun is still very young. You will give such rewards. Then he will make contributions in the future. How should you reward?"

King Zhao smiled and said, "It is precisely because he is young that he has to give such rewards. People like Lian Po and Pang Gong are too old. Even if I value them, they can't do much for me anymore. But Wu'an Jun is different. Wu'an Jun is still young and with him here, I don't have to worry about foreign enemies in the next few decades... And I also think that Jianxin Jun will replace Pang Gong."

King Zhao looked at Jianxinjun and then said, "You should learn more from Pang Gong... and respect him..."

Jianxin Jun nodded and said, "I know... there is another thing I want to discuss with you, which is the matter of Chunpingjun... I wonder what you decided to do?" This Chunpingjun is the prince of Zhao. It turns out that Zhao Yan is now the third order heir of Zhao. The prince trained by King Zhao has tried his best to die, died young... He died early, and the second heir to the next is Chunpingjun.

Chunpingjun is the brother of King Zhao today.

Unfortunately, he was sent to Qin as a hostage back then. Chunpingjun was more irritable. When Zhao and Qin were fighting, he wanted to kill Meng Ao with a dagger. But he was betrayed by his disciples and was finally detained by Qin and was in a semi-impaired state. Qin sentenced him to guilt and said that he would not let him go back to inherit the throne. The throne fell on Zhao Yan.

Now that Zhao Yan inherits the throne, his brother is still imprisoned in Qin.

When the topic shifted to the real heir to the throne, Zhao Yan fell silent. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Jianxinjun beside him, and then said, "I think that my brother is suffering in Qin State, and I feel like I am cutting my flesh with a knife. Please find a way to get him back to Zhao State." Jianxinjun nodded and said, "I'm afraid that after he returns..."

He glanced at Guo Kai beside him and did not continue to speak.

But Guo Kai saw something wrong, but Guo Kai chose to pretend to be stupid. He frowned and said, "Shangjun, Chunpingjun must take him back to Zhao. He is your brother. How can he be insulted in Qin?" King Zhao nodded, looked at Jianxinjun seriously, and said, "Please let Chunpingjun return to Zhao. I must save my brother."

King Zhao suddenly thought of something and wanted to speak. He glanced at Jianxinjun. He then said, "You go and do it first. I have something to discuss with Guo Kai." Jianxinjun bowed to him and said, "Then the policy proposed by Li Mu just now, I will go back and start to handle it in various places in the border areas..." After Jianxinjun left the palace, King Zhao looked at Guo Kai and said impatiently: "You think of a way to send her to the palace!"

King Zhao didn't even say who it was, Guo Kai knew it. Guo Kai frowned and said helplessly: "It's still the filial piety period now. How do you ask me to send her in? Besides, she is just a prostitute. It's not appropriate to let a prostitute enter the palace on weekdays..."

"What's wrong with this? Who says that a prostitute can't become a princess?"

"Are prostitutes not my people's people? I want to treat their people equally, do you know?"

It turns out that the current Zhao King's personal style is chaotic, and both men and women are a part of it. Because of King Xiaocheng's sternness, he dare not do anything wrong in the palace and can only be outside... Now that King Xiaocheng is no longer there, he can do things according to his own ideas. However, Guo Kai was still a little hesitant and sent a prostitute to the palace during the Xiao period. If others know about this, wouldn't he become a traitor?

King Zhao's face gradually became serious.
