Daqin: My weak and virtuous minister

Chapter 80 Today's days are becoming more and more hopeful

"Alas, such a talented general is not favored by the king. I feel sorry for Li Mu."

After reading it, Yao Jia sighed with regret.

If this person were in Qin, the king would definitely love him dearly.

What a pity, why are such talents not from Qin?

"But getting Li Mu to surrender to Qin may not be easy."

Yao Jia sighed for a long time.

I get a headache when I think that the king wants to use Li Mu.

"No, we need to take a long-term view and work it out slowly and steadily."

Yao Jia walked in circles in the room until he was tired and then sat down.

After a while, I finally thought of a solution.

"Lord Zhang said that Guo Kai is Qin's greatest ally in destroying Zhao. It seems we should start with him."

After saying that, Yao Jia got up and went to the warehouse.

After selecting for a long time, he finally picked out a lot of good things and prepared to give them to Guo Kai the next day.

The next day, Yao Jia sent someone to meet with Guo Kai.

When Guo Kai learned that he was the prime minister of Qin, he thought for a moment and agreed.

Guo Kai was very careful and changed several places along the way before he arrived at the place where Yao Jia had an appointment. At this time, Yao Jia was already waiting there.

When he saw Guo Ci, he came forward and greeted him with a smile.

"Prime Minister, you have worked hard. Please sit here."

"This is a fine wine specially made by my Qin State. Prime Minister, please try it and see if it suits your taste."

"Lord Yao Jia is so polite! Last time, Lord Yao Jia treated me to a pot of Qin's fine wine. It was indeed excellent."

Upon hearing this, Yao Jia paused with the wine jar in his hand and said, "If the Prime Minister likes it, I brought some with me this time and will give you two jars later."

"Haha, then I would like to thank Lord Yao Jia."

It’s no wonder that Guo Kai likes dealing with the Qin people. It’s just that these Qin ministers are too generous and give too much.

After finishing his drink, he came over and asked, "What does Lord Yao Jia want from me this time?"

"There is indeed something I would like to ask the Prime Minister for help."

As he spoke, Yao Jia didn't know how to start.

Seeing this, Guo Kai did not urge him and filled his own bottle with wine.

"Prime Minister, this is a private matter of Zhang Yuanqing, the Chief Justice of Qin."

"I'm an acquaintance of Zhang Yuanqing. He knew I was coming to Zhao, so he specifically asked me to see to it. After much deliberation, I realized that only someone as powerful and influential as the Prime Minister could accomplish this."

"Zhang Yuanqing? But he's the one who was recently granted the title of Guannei Hou by the King of Qin?"

"Exactly."

"What does he need my help with?"

"Well, before coming to Qin, Lord Zhang traveled to Zhao State and met Li Mu, a great general of Zhao State."

"Master Zhang was ill and frail, and Li Mu, upon seeing this, began to curse Master Zhang."

"Master Zhang's servant was dissatisfied and argued with him, but was killed by Li Mu's guards. As a result, Master Zhang missed the opportunity to meet with the miracle doctor, which also led to Master Zhang's long-term illness and unrecoverable health."

"Lord Zhang naturally resented Li Mu, but at the time he was powerless to do anything about him. It wasn't until a certain great king recognized him and allowed him to display his talents that he finally recovered. However, his health never fully recovered, and he often fell ill, and doctors were unable to completely cure him. Therefore, Lord Zhang hated Li Mu even more for depriving him of the opportunity to see the miracle doctor."

"Knowing I was coming to Zhao, I gave me a large amount of treasure and asked me to find someone in Zhao to help me avenge this."

"I know that the Prime Minister is willing to help others. Therefore, I came to ask for your help."

After hearing this, Guo Kai's expression changed slightly.

Of course he knew Li Mu.

In the second year of the king's reign, this man made great contributions and the king was very pleased.

After Li Mu returned to the court, just because he disagreed with his political views, he actually told the king that the actions of a certain villain would definitely harm the State of Zhao.

If it weren't for the favor of a certain king at that time, I would probably have been beheaded by now.

Seeing that Guo Kai didn't say anything, Yao Jia clapped his hands, and the guards outside brought in four large boxes.

Yao Jia asked someone to open the box.

There were countless gold, silver and jade artifacts inside.

Guo Kai was dazzled by what he saw.

Yao Jia smiled, stood up and took out a sword from the last box.

"Prime Minister, please look at this sword."

As he spoke, Yao Jia handed the sword to Guo Kai.

Guo Kai took it with doubt.

It's just an ordinary sword, what's so good about it?

When he drew out the sword, it was sharp and shone with cold light.

"Prime Minister, this sword was obtained by Zhang Yuanqing during his travels. It is incredibly sharp, and there is only one such sword in the world."

"Before I came here, Zhang Yuanqing said that as a weak man, he couldn't use the sword. He would give the sword to anyone who could help him avenge his hatred."

No way, this is a defective iron sword made by the ironworks.

But even if it is a defective product, it is much better than the bronze sword of Zhao State.

Guo Kai had never seen such a sharp sword, so he quickly drew his own sword. The two swords collided and the bronze sword broke with a sound.

"A precious sword, a true precious sword."

Guo Kai was overjoyed and held the sword tightly in his hand.

"In that case, go back and tell Lord Zhang that this Prime Minister will definitely help him get revenge and wait for Li Mu's head someday."

Become!

Yao Jia was excited inside, but he didn't dare show it on his face.

At that moment, he just thanked Guo Kai happily.

"Thank you for your help, Prime Minister. I will tell Master Zhang when I get back that you are always willing to help others and are truly a close friend of ours."

"Hahaha."

Guo Kai was naturally happy to see Yao Jia so grateful to him.

Not long after, Guo Kai left with his things, and Yao Jia returned to his residence after a while.

"Come, take this letter to the king."

"promise."

At this time, Zhang Yuanqing didn't know that Yao Jia had borrowed his name again.

Last time it was to fool South Korea, this time it was to lobby Guo Kai.

It has to be said that Lord Yao Jia knew how to reuse resources.

At this time, Zhang Yuanqing was taking people out to check the growth of crops.

This is a matter of great importance to the country and must not be taken lightly.

Fusu followed beside him. The road outside the city was bumpy and the carriage was shaking so much that Zhang Yuanqing almost regretted coming out.

"Is everything alright, sir?"

"Why don't you go to Fusu? Sir, you should go back and rest."

"Nothing to do. Staying in the room all day is not a good idea. I need to get some fresh air."

Zhang Yuanqing waved his hand and asked Fusu to sit down.

"Don't forget, I've traveled around the world before, and it was much harder than it is now. But I was fine, wasn't it?"

"What's the point of this little distance now? Am I no better than that glass object? I can't even walk on it."

Fusu had no choice but to sit down alone.

The gentleman is being willful again.

However, Fusu was also very curious about how the gentleman had been able to travel around the world with such a physical condition.

Ah Da naturally heard the conversation between the two outside the carriage. If he hadn't been forbidden, he really wanted to tell Master Fusu.

The Marquis took medicine four times a day at that time, and the padding in the carriage was much thicker than the bed. Thanks to the steady driving of the carriage, nothing happened.

Because of this, the Marquis fell ill several times, which scared Er and him very much.

In June, millet grew at an amazing rate. Zhang Yuanqing and Fusu wandered around the fields for a long time and visited surrounding farmers to ask about the growth of their crops this year.

Farmers are now full of hope as they look at the crops in the fields.

In the past, the survival rate of seeds was not so high, and the growth was not as good as this year.

This makes them more confident that grain production will increase this year.

At the same time, I was also thanking the King of Qin in my heart. Oh, now I should call him King.

The king was so kind to them that he accepted them without any grudges and even sent people to teach them how to grow crops.

The days now are becoming more and more hopeful.

I’m tired today, so I’ll send you 6,000 first and continue writing tomorrow.
