After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, Han Xuwei frowned and said, "Wu Xinjun, don't always think about being a military force, or even fabricate some inexplicable information about this, okay?

Qin State has been beaten so many times by our Da Zhao, and he has long been unable to raise his head. How could he dare to provoke or even start a war against Da Zhao?”

After many struggles with Zhao Kuo, Han Xuwei's experience is obviously quite rich.

Now he no longer questioned Zhao Kuo from a military perspective, because that was completely Zhao Kuo's world, and Han Xuwei could not argue Zhao Kuo completely.

We must find a different approach and find loopholes in Zhao Kuo's words to win.

Zhao Kuo sighed and looked at Han Xuwei with pity: "Trial Master, Tai Shi, is your news so unproven?

I remember that you are in charge of Da Zhao’s intelligence department. You are dereliction of duty!”

Generally speaking, positions like Taishi are honorary positions and will be granted to old ministers who have already retired to the second line, and basically have no real power.

But Han Xuwei was an exception. Because when the Empress Dowager summoned him back, there were no vacant positions for all the important officials of Zhao State, so Han Xuwei could only give Han Xuwei the position of Grand Tutor so that Han Xuwei could reasonably participate in the major affairs of Zhao State.

But having a position requires power. After a period of attempts and running-in, the Empress Dowager finally decided to let Han Xuwei lead the diplomacy of Zhao, and at the same time handed over the spy agency of Zhao to Han Xuwei.

Han Xuwei was anxious when he heard this and said angrily: "Who said I have neglected my duties?

It’s obviously you, Wu Xinjun, made up the facts and groundless things, what does it have to do with me! My subordinates are all very dedicated!"

The atmosphere in the hall became tense due to the dispute between the two.

The Queen Mother thought about it and said, "Okay, don't argue anymore."

Wu Xinjun, the old woman asked you, where did your news come from?"

When asked this, the Empress Dowager was actually a little wary.

Zhao Kuo said without hesitation: "The Empress Dowager is the information obtained by the ginseng teams of Wei, Chu and Qi when they are active in these countries, and then they are submitted to me. I found it after summarizing and analyzing it."

Merchants have always been one of the best hiding identities for spies, especially the channels of ginseng business can also be frequently in contact with senior executives in other countries. Zhao Kuo naturally wants to use this channel.

In fact, the spies in the ginseng channel are all from the Nightingale under Zhao Kuo's command, and the information was also discovered by the Nightingale. Zhao Kuo just said that he just didn't want the queen mother to notice that Zhao Kuo had already had an intelligence system, which was even more powerful than the Zhao State's intelligence system.

The Queen Mother nodded and said, “So that’s it.

If Qin really colluded with other countries to attack Da Zhao, it would be a troublesome thing."

The Empress Dowager still remembers how she lost the Battle of Gaotang last year.

It was because of the sudden rebellion between Han and Wei, which led to the sudden rebellion between Zhao's country from three to three to five, and eventually outnumbered and defeated.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager was instinctively very alert to the joint anti-Zhao of other countries.

But this undoubtedly denied Han Xuwei's words, so Han Xuwei immediately said: "Empress Dowager, I don't know if this matter is true yet, so I can't make a conclusion so quickly."

Zhao Kuo glanced at Han Xuwei and shook his head and said, "Tao Shi, you are indeed not a person who knows intelligence. I think when your incompetent subordinates really notice the Qin world, I am afraid that the Qin people will come to the door!"

This robbery made Han Xuwei angry and said angrily: "Wu Xinjun, do you really think you are omnipotent?

When it comes to military affairs, I may not be as good as you, but in terms of intelligence, who says my subordinates are worse than those of your merchants?"

The Queen Mother coughed heavily, stopped the two of them again and said, "Let's do it this way.

First, we sent envoys to various countries, and we said that our Da Zhao was preparing to attack Qin and see how the various countries were talking.

Taishi, during this period, you have tried to find out whether what Wu Xinjun said is true.

Wu Xinjun, you also present the evidence of your subordinates.

In this way, when the messenger returns and the investigation of the Grand Master will be over, everything will naturally come to light."

Zhao Kuo and Han Xuwei looked at each other and said in unison: "Abide by the Queen Mother's order!"

As soon as Zhao Kuo walked out of the palace, Pingyuan Jun followed.

"Wu Xinjun, tell me the truth. Did you deliberately dig a hole for the Grand Master to jump this time?"

Looking at Pingyuan Jun with a vigilant look, Zhao Kuo couldn't help laughing: "What did Pingyuan Jun say?"

This time, Han Xu took the initiative to argue with me for him, and he really had nothing to do with me."

Pingyuan Jun said oh, and suddenly whispered: "Is it true that Qin secretly contacted other countries?"

Zhao Kuo also whispered: "Of course it's true.

It is related to national affairs, how could I lie in front of the Queen Mother and the Lords?”

Pingyuan Jun took a deep breath and said, "Pingyuan Jun is my husband's brother-in-law, so he didn't even say anything to me?"

Zhao Kuo laughed and said, "Zhinling Jun is a minister of Wei after all, so he must do things based on the interests of Wei."

Pingyuan Jun looked at Zhao Kuo in surprise: "Does Wu Xinjun think that the interests of Wei State are to fight against the Great Zhao?"

Zhao Kuo nodded and said, "That's true.

If Wei State does not fight against Da Zhao, it will be almost a dead end."

Pingyuan Jun was silent for a moment and said, "Then... Wu Xinjun, do you think our Da Zhao has hope of winning?"

Zhao Kuo said: "It is hard to say if you are passively beaten, but if you take the initiative, I think there is a high possibility that you can win."

Pingyuan Jun nodded and said, "I understand, I will support you.

Is there anything else I need to do?”

Before he knew it, Pingyuan Jun had already paid more attention to Zhao Kuo's opinions.

Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said with a smile: "No need, please wait until the truth is revealed next time."

When Zhao Kuo said this, his face was absolutely confident.

On the other hand, Han Xuwei returned to the mansion with a gloomy face: "Hurry, go and find everyone!"

Half a day later, six Zhao State intelligence officials appeared in front of Han Xuwei, respectfully.

The six intelligence officials each were in charge of a different country.

Han Xuwei said coldly: "Have there any abnormal movements in other countries recently?"

The six intelligence officials looked at each other, shook their heads, and spoke in unison: "I did not move back to the Grand Master."

With a bang, Han Xuwei suddenly slapped the table.
