The news of Qin's decision to send troops to attack Qi quickly spread all over the world.

Chu.

Xiong Huai received the envoy from Qin with a heavy gift,

The envoy sent by King Qin Huiwen saluted the king of Chu and said, "Foreign minister Feng Zhang pays a visit to the king of Chu. ”

Xiong Huai sat on the top of the main hall, his heart was already happy, and he asked with a smile, "Why did the messenger come?" ”

Feng Zhangbi said respectfully: "Not long ago, Zhang Yi, the prime minister of our country, recovered from his injury and told the king of the contempt country to talk about peace with the Chu country, and our country decided to abide by the agreement between the prime minister and your country, and let the brother of the king of Ba return to China to inherit the sacrifice of the country of Ba. ”

Originally, Xiong Huai was already very skeptical about whether the Qin State could still give up the Ba State.

Now hearing Feng Zhang's words, Xiong Huai suddenly felt that this was an unexpected joy.

But think about it, if Qin State does not give up Pakistan, how can it express the sincerity of Qin and Chu to negotiate peace!

Xiong Huai said happily: "Does the Qin State really have this intention? ”

Feng Zhang replied: "Back to the king, the Qin State is true, not only that, in order to fulfill his promise, the king sent Wei Chen to the Chu State to greet the king, and presented a pair of white bi, ten horses, and a hundred beauties, and is willing to live for the king." ”

"O... Xiong Huai was so shocked that he couldn't speak, this Qin country is very different from Qin country.

The impression of the Qin State has always been known for its barbarism, and this kind of thing of subduing people rarely happens in the Qin State.

Feng Zhang continued: "The Xiangguo of our country once said that they would marry about brothers, and the king of Qin thought that as long as the king was willing to send troops to fight Qi with the Qin state, the king of the kingdom was willing to give his daughter to the king as a concubine, so as to serve the king, and from then on, the two countries of Qin and Chu became brothers, connected as one, and advanced and retreated together. ”

“···” Xiong Huai was stunned, this King of Qin is very different from King Qin.

In the face of the king of Qin, who was only temporarily shunned by Shang Ying and did not surrender to reluctance, he actually relented to himself today.

Xiong Huai suddenly had a feeling of raising his eyebrows.

"Since the king of Qin is interested, the widow dares not to obey, and it is the widow's wish to make friends with Qin and Chu." Xiong Huai squinted his eyes and said.

After Feng Zhang left the palace of the Chu State, there was a burst of wanton laughter in the main hall.

"Hahaha..." Xiong Huai laughed heartily in the main hall.

"Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king." All the ministers saluted.

"Xianqing, the plan planned by you and the rhino head has just begun to be implemented, and the Qin State side can't sit still. Not only announced that he was about to send troops to the Qi State, but also planned to make friends with our Chu State, it seems that the Qin State is scared! Xiong Huai smiled and said to Chen Zhen: "I don't know what our Chu State should do next." ”

Chen Zhen said with mixed feelings: "King, now that the Qin State has sent troops to the Qi State, it is better for our Chu State to be still, it is better to wait and see what it will become, so as not to cause twists and turns." ”

"But the marriage between our Chu State and Wei State cannot be stopped, which is the key to the struggle between our Chu State and Qin State after the defeat of Qi State."

Xiong Huai nodded and said, "Yes, but our Chu State has ordered Yin to go out in person, and the Wei State should not delay." ”

Zhao Ju happily added: "Great King, in order to make the Qin State feel at ease to send an envoy, our Chu State should welcome the Qin woman as soon as possible." ”

Xiong Huai thought that King Qin was going to give his daughter to him, and he was suddenly in a surging mood, and said happily: "What Xianqing said is extremely true, in order to reassure the Qin State, the envoy sent to the Qin State to welcome the Qin woman can enter Qin together with the envoy who returned from the Qin State. ”

The ministers said in unison: "The king is wise. ”

Xiong Huai then asked: "What do the secretaries think of the Qin State's request for the Chu State and the Qin State to attack Qi together?" ”

Zhao Ju replied: "Great King, since the Qin State is already about to attack the Qi State, then it is not harmful for our Chu State to continue to move the army of the Zhu State eastward to the Song-Qi border. ”

Xiong Huai nodded and said, "Okay, according to Xianqing's words." ”

As soon as Xiong Huai's words fell, Chen Zhen came out again, saluted the king of Chu and said, "The king, the minister Chen Zhen has a word, I hope the king will hear it." ”

"Qing has something to say, but let's say it directly, as long as it is reasonable, the widow is willing to listen to it." Xiong Huai looked at Chen Zhen and said.

Chen Zhen said with a heavy face: "The king, the minister has been in Qin for several years, and he knows the King of Qin and Zhang Yi very well, and the King of Qin looks down on the world, even if the five kingdoms attacked Qin in the past, the Qin State did not ask the king for peace. Zhang Yi is despicable and cunning, now that we are married to Chu and Wei, Zhang Yi did not go to Wei to destroy our friendship, but went to South Korea, and Weichen is worried that there is fraud in it. ”

Xiong Huai was taken aback and said, "Xianqing, why is this?" ”

Chen Zhen said: "King, today's actions of the Qin State reminded Weichen of the killing of the Wei State by Qin Xiaogong and Shang Jun in the past, so Weichen wants to speak to the king, and our Chu State still needs to be vigilant." ”

"Qin Xiaogong and Shang Jun slaughtered the Wei State!" Xiong Huai was slightly stunned.

Chen Zhen's killing of Wei was thirty years ago, and it was also the first time that Qin Xiao bowed his head to other countries after the reform of the law.

At that time, after King Wei Hui suffered the Battle of Guiling, that is, the fiasco of the battle to save Zhao from Wei and Wei, he began to work hard and use his strength.

Thanks to the efforts of King Hui of Wei, Wei soon regained its strength and became the overlord of the world again, and gathered a group of allies to hold a meeting with the intention of plotting against Qin.

At that time, the Qin State had just succeeded in changing the law, and faced the huge pressure of the Wei State, Shang Ying attended the meeting as a representative of the Qin State and expressed his intention to submit to the Wei State.

During the meeting, Shang Ying lobbied King Wei Hui to persuade King Wei Hui, who was still the Marquis of Wei at the time, to be king, and to treat King Wei Hui with the courtesy of the princes to King Zhou.

King Wei Hui's head was dizzy, and he stupidly called the king.

At that time, more than a dozen countries participating in the meeting, seeing that Qin was the first to recognize the title of King Wei Hui, were forced to recognize it under the pressure of Wei.

Then after the meeting, these Wei allies, led by South Korea, collectively rebelled.

Seeing this, King Hui of Wei sent troops to attack Korea, but was besieged by the three kingdoms of Qin, Qi and Zhao, and was defeated in the Battle of Maling in the east, and captured by the prince of Shang Yang in the west, and the Wei state changed from a hegemonic state to a second-rate country.

Xiong Huai thought and asked, "According to Qing's opinion, how is our Chu State good?" ”

Chen Zhen replied: "Great King, the war between the Chu State and the Qi State has too many disadvantages and too few benefits, and it will hinder the hegemony of our Chu State and the Qin State in the future. Therefore, the minister still said that it is better to be still than to move, and the headquarters of the Zhu State can move eastward, but it still needs to be slowed down, and it cannot clash head-on with the Qi State. ”

"Before the Qin State sends troops to attack Qi, the general's headquarters still need to be vigilant at all times to prevent accidents. Moreover, Zhang Yi's movements are abnormal, where does Korea need our Chu State to pay attention to. ”

Xiong Huai faced the Qin State that would dominate the world in the future, although he was extremely proud in his heart, he was still a little weak, so he nodded and said, "Yes." ”

After retreating, Xiong Huai walked out of the hall happily.

Soon, Nanhou led a group of people with red eyes to find Xiong Huai.

When he saw Nanhou, he seemed to have cried bitterly, Xiong Huai didn't know why, could it be that he had just accepted the daughter of King Qin and was known by the queen?

Suddenly, there was a kind of nervousness that was caught red-handed by the original partner after looking for the little three, four, five, or six.

But after thinking about it, in this era, his behavior seems to be normal, and he can't help asking, "Queen, why is this?" ”

Nanhou bowed down and said, "King, please be the master of your concubines." ”

Could it be that there is anyone in the Chu State besides me who can bully the queen of Chu?
