Chapter 214: Zhao Wangyan is in trouble again

The so-called heart fire was just a trace of fire energy condensed by Yang Chong using the Zhouliuxu Gong.

The Zhouliu Liuxu Gong uses the human body as the cathode and the world as the anode. The cathode drives the power of the anode, thereby displaying an almost divine power. Heart fire is one of the cathode powers and also the most inconspicuous one. Its power is so weak that it can be said to have no lethality at all.

If an ordinary person was implanted with Yin Fire, it would only be a rise of false fire, and at most he would just have a nosebleed, which would not be a big deal. However, Zhao Wangyan was not an ordinary person. For others, it was just an insignificant thing, but when used on Zhao Wangyan, it was enough to take his life.

What Yang Chong had to do was to help Queen Zhao to help Prince Yan of Zhao fulfill his rightful destiny.

But after Queen Zhao disappeared in Feixue Pavilion, Yang Chong did not leave immediately, but planned to stay for a while before leaving.

During this time, Madam Li, the proprietress of Feixue Pavilion, appeared in front of Yang Chong. This woman, who used to work in the same profession as Zi Nu, filled Yang Chong's glass with wine with a bright smile: "Congratulations, Sir Yang. Your fame is spreading all over Handan now."

"Madam Li, sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. If I were you, I would never be here at this time." Yang Chong said, holding up the wine glass.

Madam Li only regarded Queen Zhao as her good friend, but forgot that Queen Zhao was no longer the sister who grew up with her, but the Queen of Zhao. Because of Queen Zhao, the people who interacted with her were all the dignitaries of Zhao. Over time, the flattery from the people around her made her have an illusion that she was also a member of that circle.

Mrs. Li, who thought she had integrated into that circle, became more interested in it. She could not help but try to find out the secrets in it in order to prove that she was a member of it.

This is what happened to Madam Li at this moment. Queen Zhao met with Yang Chong late at night. One was the queen of a country, and the other was a man who had just defeated the Qin army and was famous throughout the world. What kind of secrets were there between these two people meeting late at night in a place like Feixue Pavilion?
At this time, Madam Li was very curious about what kind of collusion there was between Yang Chong and Queen Zhao?
In Mrs. Li's opinion, Yang Chong and Queen Zhao were in collusion. Although she did not know Yang Chong, she knew Queen Zhao. As a friend, she knew a lot of negative information about Queen Zhao, and naturally she also knew what kind of person Queen Zhao was. Queen Zhao did not have the so-called morality.

A woman without family background and wisdom would naturally resort to some shameful means to get what she wants.

"Feixue Pavilion is my place, why can't I come here?" Madam Li did not hear Yang Chong's warning. This woman was really getting too arrogant.

"Knowing too much will shorten your life." Yang Chong was too lazy to pay attention to this woman. He drank the wine in the glass and left the room directly.

"Damn man." Looking at Yang Chong's departing back, Mrs. Li's face changed slightly and she felt annoyed. She was ignored.

The moment Yang Chong pushed open the door, a figure happened to walk by. The man seemed to have not expected the door to be pushed open suddenly, and was caught off guard and almost bumped into it. No, in fact, he had already bumped into it, but Yang Chong dodged too quickly and even caught the unbalanced figure in his hand at the moment of dodging.

"Is it you, little guy?" Yang Chong brought the person in front of him and was facing a delicate little face. This face was already very unfamiliar to Yang Chong, but the strange snow-white long hair made Yang Chong remember who this person was. It was the little snow girl.

At this time, the Snow Girl also opened her eyes wide, as if she was afraid, nervous, and at a loss.

Before Xue Nu could react, Yang Chong had already put her down. It was not until Yang Chong's back completely disappeared that Xue Nu finally reacted. She felt that there seemed to be something different about Yang Chong, but she didn't think much about it.

Yang Chong was just a stranger to her.

After returning home, Yang Chong did nothing but stay at home and live a comfortable life with Yan Lingji, ignoring everything in Handan.

Although Yang Chong was idle, some people were very busy, such as King Yan of Zhao and Queen Zhao.

Zhao Wangyan, who was ambitious but incompetent and arrogant, was in a good mood recently. However, in such a wonderful mood, there were one or two annoying things, such as Zhao Jia.

Because of his serious illness, King Yan of Zhao felt it was inappropriate for Crown Prince Zhao Qian to ascend the throne out of consideration for Zhao State. Although Zhao Qian was the crown prince, he was still too young. If he ascended the throne at such a young age, the only one in power could be Queen Zhao. How could Queen Zhao, a woman born in a prostitute's family, know how to govern a country? What's more, the Qin army was still attacking Zhao State fiercely at that time. Even he himself was not sure he could solve the situation faced by Zhao State, let alone an orphan and a widow.

So King Yan of Zhao thought of passing the throne to his eldest son Zhao Jia, the former crown prince of Zhao.

Zhao Jia was already an adult and had a group of supporters around him. When King Yan of Zhao was still in his prime, he felt that such a son was too dangerous and a threat to his throne, so he was bewitched by Queen Zhao and Guo Kai, and believed the slander and deposed Zhao Jia from the position of crown prince.

But at the most critical moment of Zhao State, an adult King of Zhao was very important for Zhao State. At that time, King Yan of Zhao wanted to pass the throne to Zhao Jia.

But there were too many twists and turns in this matter. In the war where Zhao was bound to be defeated, Zhao miraculously overcame the difficulties because of Yang Chong's participation. Although Zhao still suffered casualties, it eventually repelled the Qin army and thwarted Qin's conspiracy.

Zhao Wangyan, in a good mood, miraculously recovered and was back to normal.

When Prince Yan of Zhao saw Zhao Jia, his mood was different. When he was seriously ill, Prince Yan believed that Zhao Jia could shoulder the future of Zhao State, but when he was healthy, Prince Yan disliked Zhao Jia again. In his opinion, Zhao Jia was a threat to his throne.

Therefore, King Yan of Zhao thought of sending Zhao Jia away, at least not letting him stay in Handan, so as not to be annoyed by seeing him.

With this in mind, King Yan of Zhao summoned Zhao Jia to his side.

"I heard from Li Mu's report that the wolf tribe has not been very well behaved recently. You go to Dai County and help your father keep an eye on the place." King Yan of Zhao looked at the son in front of him and still didn't like him very much. His son was still cute when he was a child, but his son at that time was just a son. He became annoying when he grew up and was always eyeing his throne.

"Father, I don't want to go to Dai County." Zhao Jia showed resistance when he heard this. He could still do a lot of things in Handan. Once he went to Dai County, he would be completely away from the power center of Zhao State. After a long time, no one in Handan would remember him, and the unwillingness in his heart would only become unwillingness forever.

"This is not a private matter, but a state matter." Zhao Jia's resistance made Zhao Wangyan a little angry, but this anger seemed a little too much, and his eyes were a little red. "Father, why do you go back on your words? The last time I saw you, you clearly..." Zhao Jia could only resist when he saw that Zhao Wangyan was angry. He knew very well that he must not back down at this time. Once he backed down, he would never have another chance.

Moreover, when I met Zhao Wangyan last time, Zhao Wangyan, as a father, was still so kind. Although Zhao Wangyan was already terminally ill at that time, he was still kind as a father. But what about now?
Moreover, at that time, from the words of King Zhao Yan, Zhao Jia could clearly feel that his father intended to pass the throne to him. But now that his father was in good health, it would have been fine if he had changed his mind, but he actually wanted to kick him to Dai County.

What is Dai County? It is a frontier area, where the nobles do not get along with the nobles of Handan, and the people who can really influence the succession of the throne have always been these nobles of Handan.

If he went to Dai County, not only would he not get the support of the nobles of Dai County, even if the nobles of Dai County wanted to be loyal to him, he would not dare to accept it, because that would be cutting himself off from the powerful people in Handan. He was not willing to be just a prince. He was not willing to call his younger brother Zhao Qian "the King" when he met him a hundred years after King Zhao Yan. He wanted to be the King.

Faced with Zhao Wangyan's behavior of driving people away, even though Zhao Jia knew that his resistance would incur Zhao Wangyan's wrath, he could only resist.

No matter how severe the punishment is at this time, it is no more than being kicked to Dai County.

"Shut up." King Yan of Zhao was completely furious. His son was actually rebelling against him. This reminded him of the history of Zhao State. In the past history of Zhao State, such things seemed to happen frequently.

"Father, why? Why do you hate me so much? Isn't it enough that you deposed me from the throne of crown prince? Isn't it enough that you regret deposing my mother? Why do you have to kick me to a place like Dai County? Am I not your son?" Zhao Jia acted sad and angry while thinking. As a subject he could not resist the king, but as a son, he would not lose his life if he contradicted his father.

But if he lost the hope of progress, it would be no different from losing his life. He, Zhao Jia, was also a person who wanted to make progress.

"You are my son, the prince of Zhao. Zhao needs you, that's all." King Yan of Zhao wanted to suppress his anger, but in his mind, there was always an evil fire that was impacting his mind and body.

"Father, you have more than one son, why must it be me? Father, I am also your son, how can you be so partial?" Zhao Jia said loudly, he had to show his determination.

"Rebellious son." It was not known whether he was angry because he was contradicted or he was simply angry, but King Zhao Yan said angrily. Now he just wanted to vent. As the King of Zhao, he did not have to swallow his anger.

"Father, I am also your son. You gave the position of crown prince to your younger brother. I don't blame you, father, but you can't be so partial!" Zhao Jia has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

"You..." King Zhao pointed his halberd at Haoda'er in front of him, and suddenly he felt a tightness in his chest, his eyes seemed to explode, a flame steamed over his heart, and heat rushed to his forehead.

"Puff..." With a muffled groan, a stream of blood spurted out of Zhao Wangyan's mouth. At the same time, more blood flowed out of his nasal cavity, instantly dyeing his royal robe red.

"Father!" Zhao Jia was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. What happened? Why did his father suddenly spit blood from his mouth?

After a moment of confusion, Zhao Jia suddenly realized something and felt his hands and feet become cold. He had a premonition that he was finished.

Sure enough, before Zhao Jia could make any further reaction, a scream was heard at the door of the hall.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, What's wrong with you?" The coincidence couldn't be more coincidental. Queen Zhao ran towards King Zhao Yan like a gust of wind. At this moment, she seemed to be possessed by a bird. At this time, King Zhao Yan was holding on to the table and was already shaky, and his life was also shaky.

"My king, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Queen Zhao hugged Prince Yan of Zhao tightly, her voice was sad, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if she was finding it difficult to suppress. However, no one noticed this at this time.

"Why are you doing this? The king is your father!" Amid the cuckoo-like cries of Queen Zhao, her heartbroken eyes turned to Zhao Jia.

Who am I? Where am I? What did I do just now? Faced with Queen Zhao's questioning, Zhao Jia fell into a brief confusion.

"Queen, queen, please let the king go first and call the imperial physician right away." Several people hurriedly walked in from outside the hall. It turned out that the people who came with Queen Zhao included not only Guo Kai, Zhao Cong and another middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man was the one who spoke.

The middle-aged man was almost forty years old and was quite similar to King Yan of Zhao. His name was Zhao Yi, and he was King Yan of Zhao's elder brother and also a failed prince.

"I, I'm done." As Zhao Yi's voice rang out in the hall, Zhao Jia was about to react from his confusion. When he reacted, he only felt cold hands and feet. He realized that this time he could not wash himself clean even if he jumped into the sea.

King Yan of Zhao happened to vomit blood in front of him, and the two had just had an argument. Doesn't this mean that he was so angry with his father that he vomited blood?
"Yes, yes, call the imperial physician immediately." Queen Zhao seemed to have just reacted and spoke in a panic.

Guo Kai looked at the scene in front of him strangely, but immediately covered it up with anxiety. Now was not the time to think too much.

Looking at Prince Zhao, whose nose and mouth were still bleeding, Guo Kai had a hunch that Prince Zhao might not be as lucky this time as last time. He vomited so much blood, much more than last time.

Then Guo Kai looked at Zhao Jia. He vaguely felt that this matter was not that simple. It was too coincidental. However, he and Zhao Jia had always been at odds. Now Zhao Jia might have to bear the huge blame of angering Zhao Wangyan to death. He was so happy that he didn't have time to care about the truth.

Amid the chaos in the Zhao Palace, Prince Yan of Zhao once again lay on his sickbed, and Handan became tense again.

King Yan of Zhao is in trouble again!
This time it really doesn't work.
