It is sometimes difficult to judge the things of the world in terms of both good and evil. If something happens that is beneficial to oneself but harmful to others, and people still end up doing it, people will say that it is egoism. However, if the object of benefit is the current subject of society, and the object of harm is a category of people who are excluded and intolerable by society, then this kind of "self-interest" is accepted at that time, and even approved and promoted.

Sun Bin became a type of person cursed and insulted by the Wei people at this time. Sun Bin couldn't feel the sensation in the lower part of his body at this time, but he could still remember the "click" knife sharpening sound in his mind, and then he didn't remember anything.

At this time, the soldier on duty outside whispered: "Hey, do you think this person can be shameless to such a point?" Another soldier replied, "Isn't it?" The general was very good to Sun Bin and personally drove Sun Bin back to his home. Give Sun Bin the best house and let the best maids serve him. I heard that every time the general eats, he asks Sun Bin to take the first bite, and then eats it himself, which is completely a father's courtesy. Hey, this person, he knows the face but doesn't know the heart", and after speaking, he spat in the direction of Sun Bin.

Sun Bin didn't know what was going on at this time. On the same day, after Sun Bin was taken to the house by Pang Juan, Pang Juan treated him very well and was considerate. At first, Sun Bin himself thought it was Pang Juan who was studying with Sun Bin himself at that time. But then it turns out that things may not be so simple.

Every late at night, Pang Juan would come to ask for advice, and the two sides would exchange views on world affairs. After each end, Pang Juan didn't say anything, and Sun Bin could feel the deep sorrow in Pang Juan's eyes. After several times, finally one day, Sun Bin took the initiative to ask Pang Juan, but Pang Juan did not answer. Later, I heard that Wei wanted to attack Zhao Han, but Qi did not want Wei to attack Zhao and Han and greatly increased its strength, so it united with Chu to mediate. In the past few days, the envoy of Qi arrived in Wei and made a lot of nonsense in the Wei court, threatening Wei and saying: "If Zhao Han is attacked, then is Wei sure that he will defeat my Qi, Chu, Zhao and Han allied forces?" ”。 The king of Wei was greatly annoyed by this, but there was no way, the strength of Wei was strong, but there was no way to deal with the siege and army from all sides from Qi, Chu, Zhao and Han at the same time.

Sun Bin thought that Pang Juan thought that he was a Qi person, so it was inconvenient to discuss the affairs of his home country with him. After all, at that time, Wu Qi, as the general of Lu Mugong, led the Lu army to attack Qi. In order to gain Lu Mugong's trust, Wu Qi personally killed his wife, who was a Qi person. Sun Bin did not have the prejudice that Qi people were not allowed to serve as officials of other princes. He firmly believes in and pursues the trend or the Tao, and believes that everything must take the momentum and follow the trend in order to succeed. At present, the country of the princes, the Wei State is the first to have power, which is also the reason why Sun Bin promised Pang Juan to come to the Wei State instead of the Qi State official.

Sun Bin found Pang Juan and took the initiative to put forward his own suggestions about Qi to Pang Juan, to show that he would not be unwilling to help Wei because Qi was his home country. At the same time, Pang Juan's series of courtesies moved Sun Bin very much, and he felt that he should repay Pang Juan and assist Pang Juan well. Nazhi Pang Juan was stunned at the time, and then very happily discussed with Sun Bin the strategy of Wei against Qi. This made Sun Bin very happy, thinking that he had done Pang Juan a great favor, and he could be right for Pang Juan's courtesy. Before Pang Juan left, he also personally brought Wei's current military layout map for Qi, which greatly moved Sun Bin.

After Sun Bin had Pang Juan's military layout map, he quickly made research and reasoning and formulated a series of strategies. When Sun Bin was about to take the initiative to find Pang Juan, he thought of Wei Kai, and felt that Wei Kai had a vision of the overall situation, was talented, and as a nobleman of Wei State, he would not easily betray Wei State, and wanted to discuss with Wei Kai and brainstorm. He sent the servants left by Pang Juan to inquire about Wei Kai's news. However, what was waiting for was a group of elite soldiers of the Wei State wearing iron masks, iron armor, and swords, no matter how Sun Bin defended himself, he directly caught himself in the dungeon, and then, Sun Bin didn't remember what happened next.

Sun Bin had just woken up at this time, and when he saw the soldiers outside the door, he groaned and said, "Little brother, I am your general's senior brother, please help me find your general." If your general learns that his brother is like this, he will definitely come to my rescue. When the time comes, you will be rewarded handsomely."

When the soldiers outside the door heard this, they cursed at Sun Bin: "You disloyal and unrighteous person, you still have the face to be a general." The general was sixty rods by the King of Wei because of you, and he is still lying in bed. The general was also grounded in the palace for three months. The general is so good to you, you actually stole the military layout map, as a spy of the Qi State, and used the general to plot against our Wei State. You're damned." Sun Bin said with all his strength after listening to it at this time: "I don't, I don't....... Pang Juan, you let Pang Juan come....... I'm his brother......." When the soldier saw this, he struck the door with a stick in his hand and said, "Give you face, you are still breathing." You Qi dog, see how your Grandpa Wei cleans you up? ”

As he spoke, he was going to open the cell and go in to give Sun Bin a good look. Seeing this, the soldier next to him hurriedly pulled him and said, "C, don't be angry with this vicious dog, don't let him violate military law..... It's so cold today, I'll drink ..... later." The soldier who was about to do it stopped, spat at Sun Bin in the face, and stopped arguing with Sun Bin.

In the past few days, several waves of people have come to determine Sun Bin's case, but Sun Bin will only say every time: "Pang Juan, Pang Juan ,......." In the end, Sun Bin seemed to be gradually forgotten, moaning every day like a dead dog in this Wei prison. Pang Juan never appeared.

Wei Kai already knew about Sun Bin's tragic experience when Sun Bin was in a coma and was dragged to the outskirts of Anyi City to be publicly sentenced to death. originally thought that Sun Bin would persuade the Qi envoy as he knew, so he fled back to Qi. However, the news that he has been getting after spending a lot of money is that the envoy of Qi will return to Qi tomorrow, and there is no news of Sun Bin at all. Wei Kai, thinking that history would not change because of himself, Sun Bin failed to escape back to Qi State, and finally died in the dungeon of Wei State unknownly.

Wei Kai hesitated again and again, and finally came to the inn where the Qi envoy lived late at night and asked to see the Qi envoy.

The envoy of Qi was also very depressed at this time, and this time he sent an envoy to Wei, originally thinking that he could use the power of Qi, Chu, Zhao and Han to threaten Wei, so as to complete the mission given to him by the King of Qi. But he later found that Wei did not seem to be afraid, and was actively preparing for war. Sending an envoy to another country and failing to complete the mission assigned by the king is a humiliation as an envoy. But now, he had no choice but to return to Qi quickly and report the current situation of Wei to Qi to alleviate the sin of his failed mission.

As soon as he lay down, he heard from his subordinates that someone asked to see him and said that he was recommended to him by a great talent to solve the dilemma of his current mission failure. The envoy of Qi was very happy, since the new king succeeded to the throne, the state of Qi attached importance to talents, and attached importance to the Jixia Academy. There are talented people in the Jixia Academy, and those who are courteously treated by the King of Qi and given official positions do not know the ordinary. If he was recommended to the King of Qi by a great talent in the Wei State, then his dereliction of duty as an envoy could not only be excused, but also be rewarded.

When the Qi envoy saw Wei Kai, who was dressed as a scholar, his heart suddenly cooled half. Because Wei Kai's age was too young, Qi Envoy thought that the person he was seeking to see was a respected old man. Now, looking at Wei Kai's age, his experience must be very small, and there will be opportunities to meet some talented people.

But as an envoy, the basic skills of Qi envoy Qi cultivation are still qualified, and he raised his hand to Wei Kai and saluted: "Dare to ask this little brother, the master or the elder can come together, if in the future, I am willing to represent the Qi country and personally come to the door to ask for the elders."

After Wei Kai listened, he didn't know that when Qi Envoy saw that he was young, he despised him, thinking that he was just a little follower who passed on the word. Wei Kai didn't care, he entered the room of the Qi envoy at his own leisure, sat next to the desk, poured himself a glass of water, took a sip and said: "I heard that in ancient times, Shun was very filial when he was young, and finally ruled the world peacefully with filial piety; Xiang Mao, who was already a teacher of Confucius when he was seven years old; Zhao Wu, the ancestor of Zhao State, was killed all over the house when he was born, but finally restored the ancestral worship of the Zhao family; Now the monarch of the Qi State inherited the huge Qi State at a young age, and the Qi State is now thriving. Doesn't this show that the amount of talent has nothing to do with age, and even if you are young, this does not hinder the cultivation of noble sentiments? Could this be the reason why Qi Envoy bullied Zhao Shi at a young age and despised Zhao Shi? ”

After hearing Wei Kai's remarks, the Qi envoy was greatly surprised and found that Wei Kai was a talented person. His behavior just now was really rude, so he saluted Wei Kai and said, "Despising the Magi, this is my fault, not the fault of the Qi State. I hope that the adults can look at the face of Haotian Zhide and forgive the little envoy a little. ”

Wei Kai saw that his goal had been achieved, and thinking of Sun Bin's danger at this time, he said to the Qi envoy: "I heard that the Qi envoy will be punished by the king of Qi and feel distressed when he returns in vain to envoy to Wei?" The envoy hurriedly agreed: "It is the sin of the envoy to return to Wei in vain." It is my sin to have a virtuous person and not recommend it to the king, so that the ability of the virtuous can be displayed. I hope that my lord can understand my Qi king's thirst for talent, and for the sake of the face of the people of my Qi country, I can forgive the little envoy's sin just now, recommend talents, and so that God's morality can be stretched. After speaking, he saluted Wei Kai again.

After Wei Kai heard this, he pretended to ponder for a while, and said to the Qi envoy: "Qi envoy, have you heard of Sun Bin?" ”

After hearing this, Qi Envoy thought for a while, and found that it seemed to be familiar, but he just couldn't remember it. Wei Kai saw the appearance of the Qi envoy, and thought to himself that because of his appearance, history had changed, and the Qi envoy had not paid attention to Sun Bin. When Wei Kai was about to continue, this was the Qi State official who was waiting on the side, and suddenly said: "Is it the senior brother of the Wei General Pang Juan who was divided into wrist punishments-Sun Bin?" When Wei Kai heard this, he said with a displeased face: "The people of Qi don't seem to know the rules very well........."

The Qi envoy instantly glared at the little official and motioned for him to step back. got up and personally poured a glass of wine for Wei Kai and apologized to Wei Kai. Wei Kai didn't care, and continued: "Can the Qi envoy know why Sun Bin is like this? ”

The envoy said: "The little envoy doesn't know, and I hope the adults will answer the little envoy's doubts." Wei Kai said: "Sun Bin, as a Qi person, used his status as the senior brother of Pang Juan, the general of Wei, to steal the military deployment map of Wei. He was tortured by the State of Wei." When the Qi envoy heard that Sun Bin was from Qi, he was greatly surprised, and he didn't know anything about this. However, considering that Wei is now strong, this time to envoy Wei, Wei is not afraid of the strength of Qi, Chu, Zhao and Han, and actively prepares for war, so he is very hesitant about Sun Bin's matter.

When Wei Kai saw it, he hurriedly said, "What does Qi Envoy think of Zhao Shi's talent?" The Qi envoy hurriedly replied: "The lord is a talented person." When Wei Kai heard it, he said: "Sun Bin is a hundred times more talented than me." The Qi envoy was shocked when he heard this, Zhao Shi's knowledge was extensive, and he had already seen it just now. If Sun Bin has great talent, as a Qi person, he has never heard of it, and he doesn't believe it.

Seeing this, Wei Kai continued: "Sun Bin and Pang Juan are from the Guigu lineage at the same time. Pang Juan's talent is now known to all countries. Sun Bin can be a descendant of the Ghost Valley with Pang Juan and walk the world, and he must have some talent. In addition, Zhao Shi is familiar with Sun Bin, who once said that he is invincible because of the time of the sky, because of the power of the earth, and according to the interests of people. Didn't the Qi envoy think that this was just the proof that a talented person has a reputation that is not prominent in the world, but his inner qualities are not involuntarily reflected outside? ”

When the Qi envoy heard Wei Kai's words about Sun Bin, he felt that if this was really the case, Sun Bin was indeed a talented person, and immediately became interested in Sun Bin.

Wei Kai continued: "Zhao Shi intersected with Sun Bin and felt that Sun Bin's crime this time was most likely framed. Besides, Sun Bin stole the military map of Wei as a Qi person, isn't it beneficial to Qi State as a Qi person? Sun Bin's sin is a great sin for the Wei State, but isn't it a great merit for the Qi State? In the end, Sun Bin is now suffering in another country as a Qi person, can the Qi envoy, as a representative of the mother country, endure the suffering of his compatriots? Saving compatriots from fire and water, isn't this an opportunity to preach the benevolence of King Qi? A piece of fine jade, now in front of the Qi envoy, why did the Qi envoy turn a blind eye? When the Qi State got Sun Bin, would it still be afraid that the Qi State would not prosper, and the King of Qi would not reward the Qi envoys and forgive the Qi envoys' sins? ”

The Qi envoy was completely persuaded by Wei Kai at this time and prepared to rescue Sun Bin. Wei Kai had already had a plan to rescue Sun Bin, so that the Qi envoys could plot and rescue Sun Bin who was in the dungeon of Wei State.

Looking at the carriage of Qi Guo loaded with Sun Bin in the distance, Wei Kai's heart seemed to relax. recalled what Sun Bin said before leaving: "Little brother go to Qi with me, with the talent of the little brother, he will definitely be trusted by the king of Qi and achieve fame." The Qi envoy next to him, who had already been persuaded by Wei Kai's eloquence, also persuaded Yunyun. But Wei Kai refused, because Wei Kai was no longer as confused as when he first came, and was ready to make a name for himself and revitalize the Wei clan in Yucheng in order to take back Uncle Wei and find the home abandoned by his own hands.

Sun Bin's escape was also learned by Pang Juan a few days later, and Pang Juan was furious and punished the officials of the Wei dungeon, tracking down Sun Bin's clues and the accomplices who helped Sun Bin escape. At this time, Wei Kai, as an accomplice, was dreaming of revitalizing the Wei family in his bed.

And Sun Bin, on the way to escape, made Qi Envoy admire. The Qi envoy was also glad that he obeyed Wei Kai and helped Qi find a virtuous talent this time. As for Sun Bin coming to the State of Qi to meet the King of Qi through Tian Ji, being worshiped by the King of Qi as a military advisor is a later story.
