Chapter 931: The Fate of the Traveler
For Zhao Kuo, King Ying Zichu of Qin was indeed a very easy person to control. After all, Zhao Kuo had two nails placed beside Ying Zichu.
Therefore, Zhao Kuo, a man from Ying Zichu, actually didn't pay much attention to it, because in history, Ying Zichu actually died after being the emperor for a short period of time. The next time was basically the period when Qin Shihuang and Lu Buwei performed.
From this perspective, Ying Zichu is able to be the king of Qin for such a long time, and he still has to thank Zhao Kuo for changing history.
When Zhao Kuo thought of this, he couldn't help but smile, but he thought of another son of Ying Zichu in Handan City, that is, the famous Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng in history.
Speaking of which, Ying Zheng is almost an eight or nine-year-old child now. Zhao Kuo has always asked Xu Li to raise Ying Zheng in the mansion, and he doesn't know what Ying Zheng has become now.
Zhao Kuo spoke to Xu Li and said, "Uncle Xu, our previous child, Zhao Zheng, how are you taking care of now?"
In order to avoid complicated situations for others, Zhao Kuo had changed the name Ying Zheng to Zhao Zheng before, so as not to be noticed by those who are interested in it.
Xu Li smiled slightly and said to Zhao Kuo: "To be honest, the Lord said, this child is indeed a very smart child. Now, he is studying with a few young masters."
Zhao Kuo nodded after hearing this and said, "This child's life experience must be kept confidential. No one except you and me knows that he is the prince of Qin. Do you understand?"
After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Xu Li said with a serious expression: "Please rest assured, everyone now thinks this child was picked up by the old minister from the battlefield, and they don't know his true life experience."
Zhao Kuo also smiled when he heard this and said to Xu Li: "Of course I feel at ease when you do things. Take good care of this child. After all, I owe him some things."
What Zhao Kuo said was of course the throne of Qin Shihuang in history, but this sentence was heard by Xu Li, but Xu Li had other associations.
At this moment, Xu Li subconsciously felt that perhaps the so-called Zhao Zheng’s real identity might be Zhao Kuo’s illegitimate son.
Only in this way can we explain why Zhao Kuo secretly saved the life of the Qin prince and changed his name to Zhao Zheng.
So Xu Li became more and more serious, and it could even be said to Zhao Kuo in a decisive tone: "Please rest assured, the old minister will definitely take good care of this young master Zhao Zheng."
Looking at Xu Li's hurriedly leaving, Zhao Kuo frowned in confusion. He always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it all at once.
But no matter what, the whole thing has ended so far.
The peace talks from Handan were updated at an extremely fast speed. As the original minister of the peace talks, Lu Buwei immediately asked to see King Zhao and agreed to almost all the conditions of King Zhao.
Qin will give up, except for Yinjin City, all the land of Xihe County, withdraw troops from these lands within 10 days, and return all prisoners of Zhao, including Lian Po.
In exchange, Zhao will not hold Qin accountable. After obtaining the captured Zhao soldiers and Lian Po, the two countries will officially cease to fight.
Such a contract is not very satisfied with Qin, nor is it too satisfied with Zhao, but this is acceptable to both sides at this moment.
Since the contract has been reached, King Zhao will immediately come to Zhao Kuo's side, so that Zhao Kuo can train.
So Zhao Kuo gathered the team and officially returned to the court three days later.
Like the previous wars, Zhao Kuo still left 30,000 troops to station in various cities in the old land of Wei, in case these Wei people had any uprisings or something.
Although the previous assassination did not hurt Zhao Kuo a single hair, it still reminded Zhao Kuo of a fact, that is, the rule of Wei over the past 200 years is obviously quite important among the local people. If you do not pay attention to it, there may be a big trouble in the future.
At the same time, as the prime minister of Zhao State, [58 Novels www.58xs.info] Zhao Kuo also directly used his power to re-dividate the land of the original Wei State and turn it into several counties of Zhao State.
This time, the land conquered by Zhao State was established with Dang County and Dong County. In addition, the Sishui County and Xue County were established before, and the entire Wei State was divided into four, which would better facilitate the officials of Zhao State to continue to manage the Wei State.
After completing these, the ruling order of Zhao State in the former land of Wei State was basically established, and the next thing was mainly to continue to be responsible by Zhao State officials sent here.
These Zhao officials not only had to re-rule this population, but also had to let the people here bear the responsibility of paying taxes and military service for Zhao State. At the same time, they had to promote the language and writing of Zhao State to completely replace all this in the previous Wei State.
After a period of time, it will be about 10 years and 20 years or even longer. At that time, people here will completely forget the Wei State and regard themselves as part of the Zhao State.
Assimilation like this takes time. For a person, 10 years and 20 years is indeed very long, but for a country and a nation, 10 years and 20 years are just a blink of an eye.
Just as Zhao Kuo returned to the court, he received a letter from Li Mu.
Li Mu was quite dissatisfied with the sudden return of the country, because at that time Li Mu was ready to fight with the people of Qin.
Zhao Kuo naturally laughed at Li Mu's little emotion, and immediately wrote a reply letter on the spot.
In the reply, Zhao Kuo first highly affirmed Li Mu's ability and expressed that Zhao Kuo believed that if Li Mu could really face Wang Jian head-on, he would definitely win.
Zhao Kuo then changed his subject in the letter and said that the current Zhao State should not continue to launch more wars. After all, due to Lian Po, Zhao State suffered serious losses in this war.
At the end of the letter, Zhao Kuo told Li Mu that he would have more opportunities to fight in the battlefield in the future, and even the Qin capital Xianyang would have the opportunity to break through again.
So Zhao Kuo told Li Mu not to take this matter to heart, but to base himself on the long term and the future.
After writing this letter, Zhao Kuo put down his pen and suddenly laughed.
"Why do you feel like you're a nanny now?"
After thinking about it carefully, Zhao Kuo felt that it was indeed the case.
Isn’t he the tens of millions of people in Zhao State and the entire Chinese nation now?
