Sinzheng, South Korea.

King Han looked at the Gong Zhong in front of him and said extravagantly: "Gong Zhong, the widow got the news from the Zhao State, the Chu State is the daughter of the general Zhao Slip, Xu Taizizhang, and the Zhao State is the princess of the Chu King and the son of the King of Chu, Huaiyin Jun. Moreover, King Zhao issued an edict to seal Wu Bao as the king of Pingyang, give the surname Zhao, and list it as a clan, and go to the state of Chu as a hostage, and the state of Chu took the king of Huaiyin as a hostage to Zhao. ”

Saying that, King Han sighed, shook his head and said: "Now that Chu and Zhao have formed an alliance, and I, South Korea and Chu and Zhao, are allies, so now, when Chu and Zhao are on good terms, I can't hate Chu State, so as not to be unhappy with Zhao State." ”

Gong Zhong was stunned and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

Originally, he was unhappy when he learned that his uncle had sold him to the State of Chu, hoping that King Han could help him, and at the same time, he also hoped that there would be changes in the world, so that he would not have to go to the State of Chu as a hostage.

As a result, he was disappointed, and first the Qin State returned the body of Gongzi Zilan to the Chu State as a sign of submission and bowing his head.

Then, the Song State returned the land of the Chu State and sent the royal daughter to serve the King of Chu, and the King of Chu gave two hundred miles of land as a gift to reconcile the two countries of Chu and Song.

Now, the two countries of Chu and Zhao have married and exchanged hostages, and King Han has spoken in person, who else can he count on? What other reason does he have to stay in South Korea?

Thinking about it, Gong Zhongxuan nodded resignedly, and when he nodded, tears fell silently from his eyes.

Then, Gong Zhongxuan bowed to King Han, and said in a choked voice: "King, the minister is going to Chu State, the return date is undecided, and I don't know if I can return to Korea in the future."

At this moment, the minister's heart was inexplicably sad, not because he was sad that he was far away from his homeland, but because he was sad that he could not continue to serve the king. However, for the sake of Korea and the king, the ministers were willing to stay away from their homeland and go to the state of Chu as hostages. ”

Saying that, Gong Zhongxuan bowed again, and said prostrately: "The king, the minister is going to Chu State, hoping that the king can promise the minister one thing." ”

Hearing this, King Han asked with a little melancholy, "What's the matter with the public judge?" Come on! ”

Gong Zhong replied extravagantly: "The king, the minister's only request, that is: if the minister unfortunately dies in the Chu State, I hope that the king can send someone to ask the king of Chu to let the minister's bones be buried in Korea." ”

Saying that, Gong Zhong said in pain: "Although the minister cannot continue to serve the king, although he cannot die for Korea, the minister only wishes to be buried in Korea, and continue to serve the king under Jiuquan and be loyal to Korea." ”

When King Han heard this, he was immediately moved, and he couldn't hold back his tears anymore and fell straight to the ground.

After a pause, it seemed to be comforted, and it was like vows: "Gongzhong, please rest assured, it will only take a few years to go to Chu State, and the widow will definitely let Chu State release Xianqing back, and when the time comes, you and I will continue the friendship between monarchs and ministers!" ”

"King Xie!" Gong Zhongxuan bowed for the third time.

······

Just when Gong Zhong went to the Yingdu of Chu State, on the side of Qin State, Chu Taibu Guanyou also led the team and came to Xianyang with great fanfare.

The people in the city had long learned from the mouths of others that the State of Chu had sent five-colored stones to the State of Qin.

In order to pay homage to the five-color stone, many people in the city went out of the city overnight and waited for the envoy team of the Chu State on the southern road to see it.

As a result, on the day when the envoy of the state of Chu arrived in Xianyang, the people of the state of Qin specially greeted the envoy of the state of Chu ten miles away from Xiangyang City, and began to greet each other on the road, and the procession continued until the hotel in Xianyang.

To this end, the Qin State mobilized 10,000 troops to escort the envoys of the Chu State all the way to the Qin State Guesthouse.

In the Qin Palace.

King Qin sat on the throne with an iron face, looked at Zhu Lijian and Gan Mao and asked: "Two prime ministers, the king of Chu has bullied the widow too much, he made a black emperor in the Chu country, and he just entertained himself." No, the king of Chu even sent someone to send a five-color stone to let the widow recognize the status of the Black Emperor. If the widow recognized the Black Emperor of the Great God of Nuwa, in the future, when the Qin State dealt with the Chu State, wouldn't it be a dwarf and a coward. ”

Then, Qin Wangdang cursed the King of Chu for a few words again, and then he was entangled for a while, remembering the miracle of the manifestation of the great god Nuwa, and asked with palpitations: "Two virtuous people, for this five-colored stone and the black emperor, what should the widow do." ”

“···” Gan Mao opened his mouth when he heard this, but he stopped talking.

He was originally from the State of Chu, and the State of Qin was very superstitious, but the State of Chu was even more superstitious than the State of Qin. Although the Qin State does not believe in Nuwa, the Chu State believes in it very much. Under the influence of Chu State, he was suspicious of the god Nuwa, and now he made a fuss about the five-color stone turned into a five-color stone, and after the king of Chu got the method of making the five-color stone, he also sent a five-color stone to the Qin State.

It's a mess...

According to his common sense, Qin Wangdang should be persuaded to accept the five-color stone. But this is not good for the Qin State, and it is disloyal to the King of Qin, and he can't say this.

However, to persuade Qin Wangdang to refuse the five-color stone, as soon as the words came to his mouth, he remembered the divine power of the gods and ghosts of heaven and earth, and he shrank back again.

The great god Nuwa has miracles, who can tell the ghosts and gods?

It's nothing for him to be punished by God, in case of disasters affecting the Qin State, and there are natural disasters such as floods and droughts in the Qin State, he is the one who is responsible for this.

Maybe we'll have to get the whole family on board.

In other words, will there be any natural disasters in the Qin State next year?

Thinking of this, Gan Mao shook his head, how did he know about this...

At this time, seeing that Qin Wangdang's face was entangled, and Gan Mao looked in a dilemma, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and then said loudly: "Great King, the minister has only heard of the four emperors of Qingbai, Huangqi and Chi, and has never heard of the Black Emperor, only heard that my Qin State sacrificed to the great god Wuxian, and never sacrificed to the great god Nuwa. If I rashly accept other gods, will the gods of my Qin Kingdom not be angry? ”

The sound of the disease was very loud, and King Qin listened to it in his ears, and suddenly there was a sense of deafening.

He didn't want to accept the so-called five-color stone, but he was forced by Nuwa's divine name, so he was a little entangled, and he didn't know whether he should accept it.

Now, since he is resolutely against it, he is not afraid.

In case of a natural or man-made disaster in the Qin State next year or in the next few months, then his prestige will not be damaged, and then the edict will reprimand him for a few words.

Thinking about it, Qin Wangdang nodded and said: "The prime minister's words are just the meaning of the widow, and the god of the Chu State can't control the Qin State." ”

Saying that, Qin Wangdang issued an edict: "Pass the edict, let Fengchang (the chief priest of the Qin State) prepare, go to the court tomorrow, refute the Taibu of the Chu State, my Qin State has its own gods, and will not accept the gods of the Chu State." ”

The other side.

After Taibu Guanyou settled down in the Qinguo Hotel, he sat in the room solemnly and said tiredly: "From Danshui to Xianyang in Qin, I walked for nearly a month in the original ten-day journey, and now, I finally arrived in Xianyang and have completed the task of the king." ”

Saying that, Guan You looked at the Qin Palace with confidence, and said expectantly: "If the King of Qin can accept the gift from the King of Qin tomorrow, it will be even better!" ”
