Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Page 381

So Qi Wangjian was in a very happy mood, in fact he was in a very happy mood for a while.

Although there was a voice in the DPRK secretly accusing Qi Wangjian of launching a war that caused tens of thousands of casualties in the Qi country, and then he got the land of less than two hundred miles, but Qi Wangjian completely turned a deaf ear to it.

To put it bluntly, those so-called fighters are mercenaries!

These guys who joined the army only for money, as long as they have money, how many fighters do they want?

What happened to tens of thousands of dead?The most important thing in Qi is people!Even if 30 or [-] people died, the widow would not even frown!

Therefore, these Xu's rumors really did not affect Qi Wangjian's mood.

They're just a bunch of tongue-tabbing villains, why bother with him!

How can the widow's martial arts be understood by those short-sighted people?

After a dance, the singers stopped one after another, bowed to Qi Wangjian, and retreated gracefully.

Qi Wangjian looked at Hou Sheng who was sitting at the bottom with some strangeness. You must know that these singers and music were all arranged by Hou Sheng, but it is not dark yet, why are everyone finished?

But Hou Sheng said: "Your Majesty has forgotten that it is time to meet the Qin envoy."

Only then did Qi Wangjian come back to his senses, and slapped his head: "That's right, I remembered, so where is the Qin envoy?"

Hou Sheng said: "Go back to Your Majesty, the envoy of Qin is already waiting outside the hall."

"Then call it in!"

A moment later, an envoy of the Qin Kingdom came to Qi Wangjian and bowed to Qi Wangjian: "The foreign minister Wei Ji has seen the king."

Qi Wangjian looked at the Qin envoy in front of him with an uneasy expression on his face.

He still still remembers how Qin Wangji flinched at the meeting in Luoyi.

If Qin Wangji hadn't suddenly shrunk, what Qi State could have now would not only be the land of Yan State for two hundred miles, but the Huaibei land of Chu State for thousands of miles!

It was precisely because Qin Wangji shrank that Qi Wangjian had to join forces with Zhao Guo, but he suffered a big defeat at the hands of Yan Guo people.

It's all thanks to Qin Wangji!

Qi Wangjian snorted heavily, and said to the envoy of Qin State in front of him: "Why, Qin Wangji still has the face to send an envoy to meet the widow?"

To be honest, the reason why Qi Wangjian agreed to meet with the envoy of Qin State today was not because of the long-standing friendship between Qin and Qi, or the common strategic interests between Qin and Qi, but purely because of the previous Two days later, the envoy sent up the pair of white jade bis on flying horses through Hou Sheng's hand.

Generally speaking, the fact that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked is vividly reflected around the couple of monarchs and ministers in Qi State.

Of course, this matter is one thing at a time. Accepting the treasure just means that the widow agrees to meet you, the envoy of the Qin State, but it does not mean that the widow must know how good the envoy of the Qin State has. The widow will promise you, the envoy of the Qin State, what conditions.

Although Qi Wangjian clearly put on a dirty face, and his attitude was very bad when he spoke, Wei Jie didn't seem to care at all, and said to Qi Wangjian: "Go back to your lord, I'm here this time. It is with the order of my king that Qin and Qi will be united to resist Zhao Guo."

"Qin Qi Lianheng?" Qi Wangjian couldn't help laughing mockingly as soon as he heard this sentence: "Why, does this Qin Wangji think that the widow has not suffered from joining forces with him?"

Obviously, Qi Wangjian still held a grudge against the kind of betrayal he suffered during the meeting in Luoyi.

Wei Jie smiled and said: "I heard that the king has always been resourceful and decisive, and his eyes are as bright as a torch, but now it seems that his exaggeration seems to be exaggerated."

The muscles on Qi Wangjian's face twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

Wei Jie said: "My lord, looking at the world today, Zhao is the only strong country, and it is the crown of all countries in the world. Qin and Qi are second, and Chu and Wei are second. Therefore, from this point of view, Qin and Qi are the most powerful. The country poses the greatest threat to the Zhao country. Therefore, if the king of Zhao mobilizes troops, he will attack Qi instead of Qin. Qi is a great trouble for Zhao, but the king of Qi is also allied with the country of Zhao. Isn’t this a move to seek skin from the tiger?"

Qi Wangjian laughed, and said to Wei Jie: "The envoy's statement is absurd, but Zhao Wangdan personally made an agreement with the widow that Zhao and Qi will not attack each other within five years."

Wei Jie shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, Zhao State has won consecutive victories against Qin State in the two battles of Shangdang and Hedong. If Qin wins another battle, then Qin will definitely not be the trouble of Zhao State. If Qin cannot be the trouble of Zhao State At that time, Zhao State will definitely regard Qi State as a confidant! Moreover, Qi’s old enemies Wei and Chu are now Zhao’s allies. If Zhao State joins forces with Wei and Chu to attack, can the King be sure to win?”

Qi Wangjian opened his mouth when he heard the words, and wanted to say something bold, but he couldn't say anything.

Everyone knows that Zhao State is the most powerful country in the world now, but Zhao State will definitely not be able to withstand Qi State if it comes to attack Qi State, let alone Zhao State brought Wei State and Chu State together to attack.

Hou Sheng, who was on the side, saw Qi Wangjian's deflated and unhappy expression, and hurriedly spoke out to help: "The envoy's words are wrong. Since the Zhao State can join forces with Wei and Chu to attack, how can we know that Qi State cannot? If Chu resists Zhao, then Zhao will not be able to do so either!"

These words immediately made Qi Wangjian's face look a lot better.

That's right, why is it that only he, Zhao Dan, can pull allies, and the widow can't pull allies?There is no such reason at all!

The widowed State of Qi is indeed unable to withstand the attack of the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, but can the State of Zhao be able to withstand the joint crusade of Qi, Wei and Chu?

But Wei Jie still shook his head, and said to Hou Sheng: "Houqing's words are wrong. You must know that if Zhao Guo defeats Qin, Zhao Guo will be far stronger than Qi Guo at that time. In this way, if Wei and Chu unite Zhao Then Qi will definitely win, but if Wei and Chu unite Qi, they may not be able to win Zhao. In this way, Wei and Chu will definitely abandon Qi and take Zhao, so how can there be any reason to unite Qi to resist Zhao?"

Qi Wangjian snorted heavily, and said: "Since what you said, even if I unite with Qin, I will not be able to win against Zhao steadily. If so, why don't I unite with Zhao? Anyway, even Zhao is useless. It's not good, that's what you just said!"

Wei Jie smiled unhurriedly, and said: "Your Majesty's words are correct. If Qi and Zhao unite, Qin will definitely be defeated. However, foreign ministers dare to ask your Majesty, if Qi and Zhao unite to destroy Qin, Qi may be defeated." Do you have a piece of land?"

As soon as Wei Jie finished speaking, Qi Wangjian was stunned again.

You must know that Qi State and Qin State, one is in the east and the other is in the west, separated by thousands of miles and the three countries of Jin. Even if Qin State is defeated, it is impossible for Qi State to obtain any benefits from Qin State Land income will only make Zhao Guo cheaper out of thin air.

This kind of thing seems to be really impossible.

Fortunately, Hou Sheng on the side spoke again: "The envoy's remarks are absurd. Since the Qin State could have the enclave of Tao County, why can't the Qi State now have an enclave in Guanzhong?"

Qi Wangjian lifted his spirits, and quickly said: "Yes, yes, this enclave, this enclave is also possible!"

Wei Jie shook his head and smiled: "The enclave? Hou Qing's words, forgive Wei Jie for not taking it. Dare I ask Hou Qing, Tao Jun, the enclave of the Qin State, is still in the hands of the Qin State? Tao County has now fallen into the Wei State. However, Wei State is the ally of Zhao State! If Qin State is strong enough to hold the enclave under the threat of Zhao State, how can Qi State be able to hold the enclave thousands of miles away when Zhao State attacks Qi? ?”

Hou Sheng and Qi Wangjian looked at each other, but were speechless.

Wei Jie bowed his hands towards King Qi Jian, and said: "The ministers know that the king is angry about the meeting in Luoyi, but the life and death of a country is more important than the king's personal honor and disgrace. I think the king must be careful. If it is the state of Qin If it is destroyed, the state of Qi will not survive. Is the king willing to go down to Jiuquan as the king of the subjugated state to meet the previous kings of the state of Qi?"

This sentence was like an invisible big hammer, which hit Qi Wangjian's heart heavily, causing the young Qi King's complexion to change drastically, and he fell silent.

It was at this time that Qi Wangjian suddenly remembered what his mother, the queen, had said.

"For Qin, Qi is far-sighted; for Zhao, Qi is close. Although Qin is strong, it cannot seize Qi's land. If Zhao is strong, Qi will be destroyed soon! The loss of Hejian land is not a precedent. Huh?"

These words are like Hong Zhong Dalu, constantly echoing in Qi Wangjian's mind.

After a long time, Qi Wangjian slowly raised his head.

"Since that's the case, please ask the envoy to reply to the King of Qin and say that the Qin-Qi alliance matter is agreed!"

Chapter 377 Wei Liao Says Wei Wangyu (Second Update)

Wei State, Daliang City.

Wei Wangyu stared at the Qin envoy who had just seated in front of him, his face was not too happy.

Beside Wei Wangyu, Wei Wuji and Duan Ganzi were sitting on the right and the left respectively, their eyes never met.

Even Shengdou Xiaomin in Daliang City already knew the news that the two important ministers Wei Wuji and Duan Ganzi were at odds at this moment. It can be seen that the conflict between the two has reached the point of being completely open.
