When smoke erupted on the land of Yan Zhao, the royal court of the East China Sea Qi Kingdom had just ended a fierce dispute. The reason for this was whether to immediately stop the discussion on the use of troops by Zhao State, in fact, it was decided from the beginning with the personal shooting of the case by King Qi.

When the messengers with the royal decree hurried away, many supporters of the war were still indignant. After all, the army of Qi had already entered the territory of Zhao a few days ago, and now they were suddenly ordered to withdraw to the border between Qi and Zhao, wasting a lot of grain and grass, not to mention the burden, if it affected the morale of the soldiers on the front line, thus causing chaos, it would be more than worth the loss.

However, unlike what Qi Guoxiang and several generals thought in the main battle, Qi Wang Tianjiang definitely didn't think so. Ever since he tasted the wine offered by Lan Lingjun the day before yesterday, he had completely indulged in that wonderful taste. If it weren't for the fact that today's court meeting was really important, he wouldn't have come to attend it in person.

"King! Militaristic affairs are not child's play. How can it be so easily changed? If our side withdraws troops without authorization, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the Qin and Wei states. When they destroy the Zhao State in the future, it will definitely be unfavorable to the Qi Kingdom! ”

The main battle faction led by the Prime Minister of Qi was very unwilling in his heart, and he wanted to try hard to persuade the king of Qi to take back his fate. It's just that before King Qi could say anything, a political doctor had already stood up to refute it.

"Now that the king's order has been issued, how can he go back on it? In the face of the current situation in the world, it is not of much benefit to destroy the Zhao State and the Qi State, why should the Prime Minister be so persistent! ”

Although the doctor who came out to speak was not as important as the prime minister, he did not intend to make concessions in this matter at all. Because he is not alone, but a group of people behind him. And most importantly, Tian Wuzhao, the monarch of Lanling, who has a great say in the royal court, also has the same opinion as them.

"King Zhao is newly mourned, and the country is in chaos. Take advantage of this golden opportunity to unite the princes to destroy their country and divide their lands, so that the Qi State will expand its territory, what is wrong with this? You and the other doctors are so deceiving the king, but they don't know what Ann's heart is...... Hum! ”

The anger in Qi Guoxiang's heart was almost irrepressible. King Qi's inaction originally made them very annoyed by the main battle faction. And the rhetoric of these doctors has made him endure for a long time, and he is about to run out of patience.

Qi Wang Tianjiang sat high on it, and when he saw that these ministers below were about to start pinching again, he was a little impatient in his heart. Earlier, before convening the court meeting, he listened to Lan Lingjun's secret suggestion and directly issued an order to withdraw the troops in a quick way. He had a premonition that some people would be extremely dissatisfied. No, before he announced his retreat from the dynasty, the two opposing sides had already begun to fight each other.

In that case, let's not be busy letting everyone disperse at first. Although King Qi doesn't like the ministers to be troublesome, if they are dissatisfied, they will eventually slander themselves for not doing it, and he is still very unhappy when such a situation occurs. King Qi's three hobbies are known all over the world. That is to love face, love beauty, love wine! If you do what you like in these three areas, you will be a great loyal servant. And if you talk about him in private, it is especially unbearable for him!

The sea breeze blowing from the East China Sea smells damp. This royal capital Canghai City is only a hundred miles away from the sea. Last night, the full moon was at the height of the sea, and the sound of the ebb and flow of the sea could be heard in the depths of the Canghai King City.

King Qi, who was sleep-deprived, felt a little sleepy at this time. He simply narrowed his eyes slightly, let the quarrel that had begun between the ministers turn a deaf ear, and began to reminisce about the gentle wonderland of last night. These complicated and trivial state affairs, where is more important than wine and beauty!

His younger brother Lanling Jun Tian Wuzhao is really the person who understands his mind best. The wine offered made the king like it to the bone at once. He had never drunk such a good spirit in all these years. In particular, Lan Lingjun even offered a method for brewing spirits, which simply made King Qi overjoyed. What's so good about going to expand the territory? Isn't it enough to have the Kingdom of Qi, one of the most vast land among the princes? No matter which minister desires war for his own selfishness, he doesn't care! As long as he sits on the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers of the Qi country, it is enough.

Spirits and beauties, light singing and dancing, all-nighters, is the joy of life! Qi Wang Tianjiang carefully recalled the softness and bonelessness and ten thousand styles of the beauty in his arms last night, although he was in the palace, he also felt intoxicated.

And the ministers below who are impassioned, naturally, will never guess what their king is thinking now. In the face of the Prime Minister's loud accusations, several political doctors who actively advocated the withdrawal of the army stood up together and refuted it unceremoniously.

"The Zhao State is so strong, how can it be so easy to perish? The Prime Minister and several generals are too optimistic! What's more, if the Zhao State is really defeated and its territory is divided, although it is possible for our Qi State to get some land, have you ever thought about the disasters caused by this? ”

"The country of Qi is located in the East China Sea, and for a hundred years, it has been slandered as Dongyi by the people of the Central Plains! Hum! We've been putting up with this for a long time. Expanding the territory, this is the legacy left by the previous king! Please don't be alarmist, we soldiers in the army don't know what the disaster will be! ”

Seeing that the king was indifferent and didn't care about anything. Several generals around Prime Minister Qi finally couldn't help it, jumped out and blew their beards and glared at them, and began to vent their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

The political doctors glanced at each other, and then looked at Lanling Juntian Wuzhao, who had been sitting on the sidelines, and saw him nodding slightly, his heart was full of confidence, and his words became more sharp.

"What do you warriors know? Everyone in the world knows that King Zhao obeyed the Great Zhou Tianzi and had no ambitions. As for our neighboring countries, we have always pursued a friendly attitude. In the past few years, if it had not been deliberately provoked, Zhao had never taken the initiative to provoke a war. Even the Beihu cavalry was firmly blocked by them, and it would not pose any threat to our country at all. It is a blessing for Qi to have such a good neighbor! ”

The person who stood up and spoke was the doctor Gongsun Ji. Among the vassal states, there seems to be a constant contradiction between the ministers of state and the doctors, who represent the first and second ministers. And Qi is no exception. The Gongsun family is a big family in the Qi country, rich and noble, and the children of the clan are all over the royal court and beyond. Gongsun

The words that Ji said represented the opinions of most of the nobles of the Qi Kingdom.

"Doctor Gongsun, if the old man remembers correctly, when you tried your best to encourage the king to send troops, didn't you say that...... Hum! ”

Several generals frowned angrily and tried to refute him, but they couldn't think of any other reason for a while. And the prime minister took over the conversation in time with a cold face. The generals on the battlefield are obviously not the opponents of the doctors.

Hearing the Prime Minister's ridicule, Gongsun Ji's face did not change at all. This senior doctor, who has always been favored by the king of Qi, knows very well what his king needs now. And they have enough chips in their hands in exchange for the absolute support of King Qi. If these guys, led by the prime minister, are ignorant of current affairs, he is just happy to humiliate them and prevent them from coming to power.

"It was then, and now it is now. Time has changed, and people cannot step into the same river, let alone hang themselves from the same tree...... The Prime Minister is in charge of the Qi Dynasty for the king, doesn't he even understand such a simple truth? ”

"What do you say? It's just nonsense! It's shameless to be so capricious! ”

Qi Guoxiang was furious, pointed at the nose of the doctor Gongsun Ji and scolded. With the connivance of King Qi, such things often happened in the past, even if he rolled up his sleeves and fought on the spot, it was not unprecedented. Everyone is already surprised by this.

Gongsun Ji, who was born in a big businessman, has never seen any scenes, and in order to achieve his goal, even if he is sprayed with spittle, he can spit on himself. was scolded by his old opponent, but he didn't care at all. Not only was it not annoyed, but it was smiling.

"Your Excellency, I will not deny what you said. But everything I did was for the sake of the Qi Kingdom and the King! The king naturally understands this. Even if I bear the infamy for this, I am willing! ”

"Gongsun Ji, don't be ashamed here. If you don't want people to know, you can't do it yourself! You are trying your best to trick the king into retreating, what is the intention, don't think I don't know. Hum! ”

"Oh? Then I want to hear with my own ears, what does the Prime Minister think we are doing this for? Hehe! ”

"What did the people who entered your noble mansion do yesterday? Doesn't Doctor Gongsun want to make it clear in front of the king and his ministers? ”

Qi Guoxiang looked at them coldly, and finally sacrificed his killer weapon! He didn't want to do such a desperate thing, but since these guys who disregard the country for the sake of greed have challenged their bottom line, he is not welcome.

There was silence throughout the hall. Many people have a feeling that something big is going to happen. King Qi also opened his eyes, and studied the ministers below thoughtfully, as if they all had flowers on their faces.

"Since the Prime Minister asked like this, then I naturally won't hide that the young people in □ City are indeed from Zhao State, and they are all children of the nobles of Zhao State. However, this trip was not a bribe for help as the minister imagined, but a special mission. In other words, they are all here to help our Qi country! If the two countries reach friendship this time, the mountains and seas will be treasured, and the help of the community will be at your fingertips...... The blessing of this Qi country and the king is also! ”
