Although King Zhao had so many thoughts in his mind and kept turning around, for the Queen Mother, today's King Zhao was actually no different from the well-behaved and obedient child in daily life.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager spoke without any warning: "If you have any questions, just say it directly, as long as it is not involved in the mess outside the palace."

King Zhao smiled and said, "That's right. Mother's 18th birthday will be my mother's 100% birthday in a few days. I want to hold a banquet to make it lively at that time.

I heard that there are some very interesting jugglers in Handan City recently. I want to invite those jugglers to come to the palace to perform. I wonder if my mother can approve it?"

Upon hearing this, the empress dowager showed a hesitant expression on her pretty face, and suddenly spoke to the eunuch Ling standing beside her, "Has some juggling artists come to Handan City recently?"

The eunuch ordered the eunuch to be negligent and quickly replied: "It is true that the Empress Dowager is. These jugglers are mainly active in civilian areas. It is said that every performance is very popular, and it can be said that it is completely full. A large number of people have gone to watch it."

The Queen Mother nodded, but did not speak immediately, obviously she looked hesitant.

Seeing this, King Zhao secretly complained that something was wrong.

This so-called juggling group is the key step in the entire plan. If the queen mother does not agree, then nothing can be discussed.

So King Zhao hurriedly said, "My mother has been in the palace for 18 years. I have never seen juggling in the past 18 years. Can't Mother satisfy my wishes?"

At this moment, King Zhao didn't care about his independent mentality of rebelliousness or rebellion, and directly showed a very aggrieved expression on his face, which seemed to be about to cry at any time.

The Empress Dowager was already very shaken. Now that she saw the expression that King Zhao was about to cry, she suddenly felt soft and couldn't help but sigh and said, "Okay, okay, how old is this person, and she still put on such an expression every day. If Chen and others see it, where is your majesty?"

After saying that, the Empress Dowager turned her eyes to the eunuch order and said, "You are responsible for sending people to work to review these jugglers. After confirming that there are no spies from other countries, you will bring them into the palace and let them be responsible for performing for the king. Do you understand?"

The eunuch calmly and bowed down respectfully and responded: "I will accept the order."

On the other hand, after hearing the news, King Zhao was naturally very happy and jumped up in the hall.

"Thank you, my mother, I'm so nice to me!"

The Empress Dowager couldn't help laughing when she looked at King Zhao's happy appearance. Then she said to King Zhao seriously: "Wang'er, if you are looking for happiness, the Queen Mother will naturally not stop you.

But you must remember that the current political arena of Da Zhao is in chaos, so you must not participate, do you understand?"

King Zhao was now able to control his emotions very accurately. He heard this and naturally nodded obediently and said to the Queen Mother: "Please don't worry, my mother, I just want to see the juggling."

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she nodded with great relief and said to King Zhao: "Wang'er, it seems that after you have experienced so many lessons, you have finally grown up a little."

The empress dowager didn't know at this time, but this was actually the last time she had been getting along so well with King Zhao.

Just as King Zhao was communicating with the Queen Mother about this juggling incident, Pingyang Jun also walked into the prison of Handan and appeared in front of Guo Zong again.

It can be seen that in the past, Guo Zong suffered very tragic torture.

At this moment, Guo Zong was covered with blood and wounds on his body, looking very tragic.

After sitting down, Pingyang Jun waved to the guards beside him, signaling everyone around him to retreat.

A moment later, only Pingyang Jun and Guo Zong were left in the cell.

Pingyangjun looked at Guo Zong and said lightly: "You are still unwilling to confess, are you?"

After Mr. Pingyang asked several times, Guo Zong's body trembled slightly and slowly raised his head.

Guo Zong smiled at Pingyang Jun: "Pingyang Jun, I have told you everything I should say before.

As for the things you want me to say, they have never happened. How did you ask me to explain to you?

I can't do perjury."

Pingyang Jun smiled and did not get angry at all, but suddenly asked Guo Zong a question.

"If I tell you at this time that your lord Zhao Kuo and I have reached a consensus last night, are you absolutely unwilling to believe it?"

Guo Zong was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled loudly: "Mr. Pingyang, have you forgotten that you had used this trick on the first day of interrogation?"

Pingyang Jun couldn't help laughing and said to Guo Zong: "What I want to tell you is that what I said today is indeed the truth."

Guo Zong closed his mouth, obviously no longer wanted to say anything to Pingyang Jun.

Pingyang Jun sighed and stood up, saying to Guo Zong: "Actually, you should thank Zhao Kuo, the lord. If he hadn't made a plan, he had strongly asked to leave your orders and use your identity to do some work, even if I choose to join forces with him this time, I can kill you."

Guo Zong's body trembled slightly, but he still didn't speak.

Pingyang Jun did not seem to expect Guo Zong to speak, but smiled and continued, "Actually, I know better than anyone else, how important you are to Zhao Kuo, but it's a pity that I can't kill you this time.

I hope you should be more cautious when leaving, because if you fall into my hands next time, you will undoubtedly die at that time."

After a pause, Pingyang Jun suddenly laughed again.

"But it doesn't matter. In order to make the whole thing more realistic, you will still be tortured next.

I hope that when that day comes, you will not lose your mind and say nonsense by these tortures, do you know?

Because if you really say something that is not good for Zhao Kuo, I will definitely kill you on the spot."

After saying these words, Mr. Pingyang ignored Guo Zong and turned around and left.

A moment later, several guards with grim smiles walked in and picked up various torture instruments in the cell.

Soon, Guo Zong's screams came from the cell again.
