Because Wei Si was worried about the invasion of Qin in the west, after going to the front line of Qi to boost morale, he turned the head of the car and secretly went to the western border of Wei with Su Qin, Zilian and a group of relatives in the name of returning to the capital of Daliang.

At the same time, in Chu Yingdu.

At this time, the king of Chu had not yet received the news of the fiasco of his army, and was hugging his concubine Zheng Sleeve in the main hall, drinking wine and chanting poems with Qu Yuan and Zhaoyang.

After the king of Chu asked Zheng Sleeve to feed himself a glass of wine, he asked Qu Yuan:

"Steamed orchid food, Dian Gui wine and pepper syrup! Raise the drums, slow down the festival and sing songs, Chen Zhu is very proud...... What's behind this, Lingjun, the widow forgot for a while!"

Qu Yuan immediately responded:

"Maharaja, this is the minister's Donghuang Tai, the following sentence is, the spirit is beautiful, and the room is full of flowers! The five tones are ....... ”

Suddenly, at this time, an attendant hurriedly climbed in and interrupted Qu Yuan:

"The King...... The king, General Qu has news from Pakistan! ”

The king of Chu gently pushed up the Zheng sleeve in his arms, and hurriedly asked the chamberlain happily:

"Did General Qu come with good news?"

The chamberlain lowered his head and did not dare to answer, and after a while, he said intermittently:

"Qu ...... Bend...... General Qu Qi in ...... suffered a great ...... in Pakistan The big defeat, now only ...... There are only 30,000 remnants left, and they are ...... On the way back to Yingdu! ”

When the king of Chu heard this shocking news, he jumped up angrily, pointed at the chamberlain and said:

"This king has never suffered a defeat since he took the throne, you ...... You audacious dog slave dare to deceive this king here! ”

Then snoring:

"Come on, pull this nonsense-filled dog slave out and behead me!"

Zhaoyang and Qu Yuan, who were also shocked when they heard the news from this chamberlain just now, also came back to their senses at this time, only to see that Qu Yuan first dissuaded the angry King of Chu:

"Maharaja, you can't do this, let's ask the truth of the matter first!"

zhaoyang also says:

"Yes, the king, what the left disciple said is right!"

Then he stepped forward to stop the chamberlain who was about to be dragged out by the guard, and then questioned it:

"Is what you just said true?"

The waiter, who had already been frightened and lost his soul, also eased up a little, and returned to Zhaoyang:

"Yes, Zhaoxiang, this is all the messenger of General Qu Beggar who rushed back to report and let the small one come and convey it to the king!"

Zhaoyang asked again:

"What about the Messenger?"

The chamberlain replied:

"I'm still waiting outside the palace, but the messenger was seriously injured when he came!"

Zhaoyang turned to the King of Chu and said:

"Your Majesty, why don't you let this messenger in and confirm it?"

The King of Chu held his breath and nodded:

"Alright, pass it in!"

After a while, the messenger was brought in to the king of Chu, but at this time, the messenger was already dying and could not speak.

On the side, Zheng Sleeve whispered in the ear of King Chu:

"Dajun, this time the defeat of our Chu army in Baguo was caused by that Wei envoy Chen Zhen, you have to find someone to arrest it quickly!"

At this time, the king of Chu began to say angrily to the guards:

"You guys hurry up and catch that Chen Zhen back for me now, don't let it run away, this time our Chu State sent troops to Ba State, it was this Qi people who did it!"

Qu Yuan immediately comforted the King of Chu:

"Dajun, this matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with Mr. Chen Zhen, after all, Bashu is the western gateway of our Chu State, and it is only natural to send troops to Bashu!"

The king of Chu immediately said:

"Come on, escort the left disciple down for me!"

On the side, Zhaoyang naturally knew Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, best, and he was silent at this time.

After a while, the commander of the guards who went out to arrest Chen Zhen came back and reported:

"King, that Chen Zhen has already left our Chu State three days ago, and now I am afraid that they have all returned to the Wei Realm, and I am afraid it will be too late to arrest him!"

The king of Chu was about to get angry at the commander of the guards, but another attendant came in from outside and said to the king of Chu:

"Qin Xiang has arrived in Yingdu, and now he is outside the palace and wants to see you, the king!"

When the king of Chu saw that Qin Xiang still dared to come to Chu at this time, he thought that he had found a punching bag, so he immediately asked Qin Xiang to bring him in.

This Qin Xiang is no one else, it is Zhang Yi.

As soon as the king of Chu saw Zhang Yi, the prime minister of Qin, he pointed at Zhang Yi angrily and said:

"You...... You...... You, Qin Xiang, actually have the face of our Chu State, I don't think you want to live anymore! ”

Zhang Yi may have expected that the King of Chu would be like this, but instead of a trace of panic, he replied to the King of Chu with a smile:

"King Chu, I don't know why you have such a big prejudice against our Qin country, our Qin and Chu have always been in-law states!"

The king of Chu questioned Zhang Yi:

"Qin Xiang, the king of this book asks you, did your Qin State kill 100,000 soldiers of our Chu State this time?"

Zhang Yi replied very naturally:

"Yes, isn't it King of Chu that your troops want to block the back road of our Qin State's Shu troops in Ba Country this time? Our Qin army also resisted as a last resort in order to protect itself, so for the sake of the long-term friendship between Qin and Chu in the future, our King of Qin specially asked the contemptible Zhang Yi to apologize to you, King of Chu! ”

The king of Chu asked:

"Since you came to our Chu State to apologize, Qin Xiang, how do you want to compensate our Chu State for coming here?"

Zhang Yi smiled lightly:

"For the sake of Qin and Chu's friendship, our Qin State has decided to cede 600 li of Shang Yu land to your Chu State!"

King Chu was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked again:

"What? Qin Xiang, you said that your Qin State is willing to cede Shang Yu 600 li of land to our Chu State? ”

Zhang Yi nodded:

"Yes, and I have brought a map of six hundred miles of land!"

After speaking, he took out a topographical map of Shang Yu depicted in sheepskin from his bosom and put it in front of the king of Chu.

This place of commerce has naturally been wanted by the king of Chu for a long time, because if the state of Chu really gets the land of the state of Qin, then the capital of Qin, Xianyang, will be in the pocket of the state of Chu in the future, but the king of Chu still can't believe that after the defeat of his own state of Chu, the state of Qin actually took the initiative to cut such a large piece of important land to sue for peace, so he asked Zhaoyang on the side:

"Zhao Gong, I don't know what you think about this?"

Zhaoyang looked directly at Zhang Yi, and after seeing that Zhang Yi's face did not change, and he didn't seem to have any intention of deceiving, he said:

"King, since Prime Minister Qin personally came to our Chu State to sign a contract, the minister thinks there should be no fraud!"

At this time, Zheng Sleeve behind the King of Chu came over and said to the King of Chu a little coquettishly:

"Maharaja, since Prime Minister Qin came all the way to our Chu State to apologize and give such a big gift, how can you refuse people thousands of miles away?"

The king of Chu asked Zhang Yi again:

"You Qin State can't give us such a big gift just because you want to compensate our Chu State for the great defeat that we have just experienced this time, right?"

Zhang Yi smiled lightly:

"Yes, how can there be a free lunch in this world? King Chu, it's good that you understand! ”

King Chu looked at Zhang Yi:

"Then what conditions do you have?"

Zhang Yi paused for a moment and then said:

"The condition of our Qin State is that your Chu State must sever allied relations with Qi, Wei, and Han, and then attack Han and Wei together with our Qin State! Got the territory, we Qin and Chu divided it together, I don't know what you think, King Chu? ”

The King of Chu immediately set his eyes on Zhaoyang on the side:

"Zhaogong, what do you think of Qin Xiang's conditions?"

Zhaoyang replied:

"This ...... This...... I'm afraid that's a bit wrong, right? ”

Zheng Sleeve, who was beside the King of Chu, immediately came over and grabbed the elbow of the King of Chu:

"King, I think this Qin Xiang's request is quite good, originally our Chu State and Qi, Han, and Wei were only allied together because of interests, and now Qin State is willing to send us Chu State with a business of six hundred miles, and we can attack Han Wei with Qin State and get the territory of the two countries, such a good thing, what are you still hesitating about?"

At this time, a person suddenly rushed in the hall, pointed at Zhang Yi and said to the king of Chu:

"Lord, don't agree to this Qin Xiang's words, if we break off diplomatic relations with Qi, Han, and Wei, our Chu State will be isolated and helpless in the future, and the Qin State has just killed 100,000 of our Chu army, have you forgotten the blood feud of the soldiers?"

Zhang Yi glanced at the person who had just rushed in, and said with a smile:

"Qu Zuo, long time no see!"

Qu Yuan ignored Zhang Yi, and still kept admonishing the King of Chu.

The king of Chu was naturally attracted by Zhang Yi's business in six hundred miles, so he ordered someone to pull Qu Yuan down again, and began to sign a Qin-Chu alliance with Zhang Yi.

After Qu Yuan, who was full of resentment, was coaxed out of the Chu Palace, he had to come to a tavern in Yingdu dejectedly, intending to drink some stuffy wine alone to relieve his anger.

Suddenly, at this time, a solo drinker at the table next to him said to Qu Yuan:

"Lord Zuo, why are you drinking here like this?"

Qu Yuan glanced up at the merchant:

"Who are you? What does my drunkenness have to do with you? ”

The merchant smiled lightly:

"The contemptible person is from Luoyi, his name is Su Dai, I wonder if Lord Zuo can know it?"

After listening to this person's introduction, Qu Yuan naturally felt a little familiar, and suddenly remembered a person, so he took the wine jug, walked over and said to Su Dai:

"Could it be that you are a famous scholar of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and now Su Dai who is presiding over foreign affairs in the Wei State?"

Su Dai nodded:

"Yes, the contemptible person is Su Dai, and I don't dare to be a celebrity in front of Lord Zuo Tu!"

Qu Yuan toasted Su Dai with a glass of wine:

"Didn't you Wei envoy Chen Zhen just leave our Chu State? Why did Mr. Su Dai come to our Chu country again? ”

Su Dai replied:

"I was originally going to Korea for King Wei, but because I heard that Prime Minister Qin was coming to Chu State, and Mr. Chen Zhen also expected that he would be in danger, I rushed to Chu State!"

Qu Yuan sighed lightly:

"Alas...... It turns out that this is the case, our King Chu is now deceived by that Zheng sleeve, I am afraid that he is really not saved! ”

Su Dai showed a hint of a smile:

"Don't you want to know why Zheng Sleeve is from Korea, but he has repeatedly profited for the Qin State?"

Qu Yuan replied:

"It is rumored in the world that our Chu State concubine Zheng Sleeve was bought by the Qin State, but our Chu King naturally can't believe it because he loves this Zheng Sleeve too much, and now in the Chu State, if anyone talks about this matter, they will definitely be killed, so Mr. Su Dai, don't talk about this matter here!"
