On the second day, after worshiping the heavens and telling his ancestors, King Yan Zhao said to his ministers: "In the past, the Qin State was destroyed by the Wei State and almost perished. ”

"The widow is not talented, and he is willing to follow the example of King Qin and seek talent from the world. The ministers and the common people have the strategy of enriching the country and strengthening the army, and they are dedicated to the widows, and the widows are not stingy with rewards. ”

"Therefore, in order to express their hearts to the wise men of the world, the widow decided to build a high platform in Yishui, and put a thousand gold on it, where someone can give advice to the widow, the widow is rich and noble, if there is a person who can make the Yan country rich and strong, the widow is willing to govern the Yan country with it, and it is not difficult to tear the soil and call the widow."

Gongzi An heard the words and said: "The king, the ministers are not good, and they have been thinking hard for many days, but they have not come up with a plan to make Yan Guo rich and strong. But the country is rich and strong, nothing more than money and food. ”

"But now, after years of war and turmoil, coupled with the brutality of Qi State, our Yan Kingdom has been ransacked, resulting in a shortage of money and food in our country. Ministers are not talented, please borrow grain from other countries for the envoy for the king? ”

King Yan Zhao looked at Gongzi An in surprise and said, "I don't know which country Qing plans to borrow grain from?" ”

Gongzi An opened his mouth and said: "Back to the king, Korea is an ally of my Yan country, Zhao State and my Yan country are friendly and allies, and Qin State is the in-law of Yan country, so the minister plans to borrow grain from these three countries." ”

King Yan Zhao pondered for a while, and directly excluded Zhao from borrowing grain in his heart, when he returned from Zhao, he had made an appointment with King Zhao to send troops to attack Zhongshan in the north and south, and now Zhao is actively preparing for Zhongshan, just waiting for himself to gather his army, send troops to attack Zhongshan, and recover the lost land of Yan.

Now borrowing grain from Zhao State is just a rude thing for Yan and Zhao at the same time.

As for Qin and South Korea, they can give it a try.

Especially the Qin State, now the Three Jin and Chu States have driven the Qin State back to the land west of the River, and are about to meet the alliance outside the Hangu Pass, preparing to blockade the Qin State.

In the case that the Qin State was isolated, and the Qin State was in urgent need of allies, at this time, the Yan State took the initiative to get close to the Qin State, and it would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Thinking of this, King Yan Zhao sighed and said: "It has been more than 20 years since the widow's mother came to Yan Kingdom, and she misses King Qin day and night, so much so that she washes her face with tears. The widow is willing to take Qing as an envoy and bring the letter of the Queen Mother to visit the King of Qin in the Qin State and express the widow's respect for the King of Qin. ”

"Wechen takes orders." Childe An saluted.

In Gongzi An's mansion, E Jun saw Gongzi An's return, and immediately asked, "Childe, how is it?" ”

Gongzi An said with a smile: "Fortunately, the king has promised to borrow grain from the Qin State, and I will go to the Qin State to borrow grain tomorrow as the envoy of the King of Yan." ”

Then, I will talk about the things in the court.

Ejun was overjoyed and said: "Okay, this is done, the son is not far from the day of the king." ”

Gongzi An smiled: "Rejoice and rejoice, everyone will get rich together!" ”

E Jun nodded and said: "Okay, this time I will go to Qin State to collect grain, I still need to prepare some gifts for the ministers of Qin State, tomorrow we will meet outside Jicheng and say goodbye!" ”

Gongzi An nodded and said, "Okay, see you tomorrow!" ”

Leaving Gongzi An's mansion, the smile on Ejun's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a heavy face.

Although he knew that Yan Guo would hook up with Qin State sooner or later, King Yan did not hesitate at all, and promised to borrow grain from Qin State, which not only showed that Yan State did not intend to make enemies with Qin State, but also said that King Zhao, who sent King Yan back to China, also did not intend to make enemies with Qin State.

Otherwise, even if King Yan doesn't consider the attitude of the Chu State, then he must also consider the attitude of the Zhao State.

As soon as he returned to his residence, Ejun immediately instructed his attendants, "Let Ling Yin come to see me." ”

Entering the room, E Jun took out a silk book and wrote down the news he had heard about Yan Guo and Yan Wang in the past two days.

When Ejun was writing the information, Song Qing walked in, and when he saw this, he waited on the side.

Soon, Ejun finished writing the information, and then handed the silk book to Song Qingdao: "This is some of the things that have happened in the Yan Kingdom recently, you immediately send people and horses back to Yingdu, and present them to the king." ”

After Song Qing took the silk book, he responded: "No! ”

E Jun continued: "This monarch will leave for Qin State tomorrow, and you will be fully responsible for the business and intelligence of Yan Kingdom, and the most important thing is to record King Yan's every move, and then let people send it back to Yingdu." ”

"It's Your Majesty." Song Qing saluted, and then hesitated: "Your Majesty, since I left the Chu State, there have been other merchants' subordinates missing in the caravan one after another, and just today, more than ten people have disappeared..."

E Jun shook his head and said, "At this time, I know that you don't need to pay attention to the affairs of other caravans, as long as you take care of our own people." ”

"No." Song Qing responded.

On the second day, Ejun took many people to mix in the envoy team of Yan State and headed towards Qin State.

Nothing to say all the way.

Xianyang, Qin State.

Gongzi An stood in the Qin palace and saluted to the king of Qin: "Foreign minister Ji An pays a visit to the king of Qin." ”

"No courtesy." King Qin Huiwen smiled and asked, "I don't know what is the so-called matter that King Yan sent an envoy to Qin State?" ”

Gongzi An replied: "Back to the king, the queen mother of our country has not returned to the Qin country for many years, and she sighs all day long, and the widow is filial, so she sent a special minister to visit the king of Qin and present a pair of white bi, hoping to seek the things in the palace of the queen mother, so as to relax the heart of the queen mother." ”

The corners of King Qin Huiwen's mouth twitched slightly, and he still remembered the news from King Yan last time, saying that the Queen Mother washed her face with tears all day long, the purpose was to urge the widow to send troops to the Qi country, but the widow was careless...

Only this time, what does King Yan want?

King Qin Huiwen looked at Gongzi An and said: "Alas, think about it carefully, the widow has not seen Empress Yan for more than 20 years, and he doesn't want Empress Yan to do this, the widow agreed to this matter, I don't know if the envoy still has something important?" ”

Gongzi An replied: "The country of Qi is brutal, wreaking havoc in the country of Yan for three years, not only looting the wealth accumulated since the country of my country, but also robbing all the grain and grass of my country of Yan, and now the country of Yan is a fiasco, and the people have no food to use, so the widow sent the minister to borrow grain from the king." ”

"Borrowed food?" King Qin Huiwen asked, "I wonder how much grain King Yan wants to borrow?" ”

Gongzi An said: "I want to borrow 100,000 stones of corn, 100,000 stones of beans, and 300,000 stones of wheat rice." ”

"500,000 stone grain?" King Qin Huiwen was taken aback, and then sighed: "This matter needs to be carefully considered, and I will give the envoy an answer tomorrow." ”

Gongzi bowed down: "Weichen is waiting for the king's good news." ”

Soon, Zhang Yi and others arrived.

King Qin Huiwen asked: "The envoy of the Yan Kingdom borrowed grain from the widow, 100,000 stones of corn, 100,000 stones of beans, and 300,000 stones of wheat rice, I don't know what the ministers think?" ”

Zhang Yi immediately bowed down: "Congratulations to the king, the minister congratulates the king." ”

Gan Mao and others also said: "The minister is the king." ”

King Qin Huiwen said: "Qing and the others thought they were going to promise King Yan? ”

Zhang Yi said: "King, this time the Yan State came to borrow grain, which is a good opportunity to break the alliance led by the Chu State. ”
