Chapter 223: Do you want to help Qin Guo? The people of Qi quarreled (fourth shift)
Linzi of Qi State, royal palace.
Qi Wangjian is very distressed now.
In front of Qi Wangjian, the ministers of the two factions of Qi had already quarreled.
Dasi Xingtian Yan said loudly: "Now that Qin and Chu are competing, Zhao has no time to look south, it is a good opportunity for the rise of Qi State!" The king only needs to take advantage of the situation to attack Chu, and he can easily expand his territory, such a beautiful thing, how can he not do it? ”
Saying that, Tian Yan turned around and bowed solemnly to the head of Qi Wangjian, and said: "The minister asks the king to be sure to connect Qin and Chu, and restore the king of Wei and the king of Xuan!" ”
Obviously, Tian Yan is the main battle faction.
As the royal family of the Qi State, Tian Yan was born and grew up in the era of King Xuan of Qi, which was the time when the Qi State was powerful and dominated the East.
But Tian Yan, who grew up as a teenager, witnessed the tragedy of the rebellion of the people who rebelled and left the Five Kingdoms to attack Qi in the era of King Qi, causing the Qi country to fall from its peak.
Finally reached adulthood, Tian Yan joined the political arena of Qi with his life experience, and rose step by step in the era of King Qi Xiang.
However, it was during this period of time that the State of Qi suffered successive defeats, and was beaten by the State of Zhao without the power to fight back, completely disagreeing with the majesty of the year.
Now in the era of Qi Wangjian, Tian Yan has finally become an important minister of Qi State, and this great secretary who wants to revive Qi seems to see the opportunity for the revival of Qi to beckon him.
If Tian Yan was sitting on the throne now, then I am afraid that at this moment, he would have already ordered the troops to be dispatched.
It's a pity that Tian Yan is not the king of Qi, so after he says this, he has to wait for Qi Wangjian's reply and opposition from political enemies.
Who are Tian Yan's political enemies?
Of course, it is another "Five Great Officials of Qi State" Dasi Tian Zhoufen.
Zhou Fen and Tian Yan are already a pair of super old enemies.
The grievances between the two did not come from each other, but mainly from Tian Dan, the great hero of the Qi State who has now settled in the Zhao State.
Tian Dan is Zhou Fen's benefactor, and he single-handedly promoted Zhou Fen.
But Tian Yan is the loyal lackey of King Qi Xiang, and he is also the one who makes things difficult for Tian Dan the most.
Zhou Fen and Tian Yan are incompatible precisely because of this.
It can be said that whatever Tian Yan agrees to, Zhou Fen will definitely oppose it, no matter what.
Moreover, Zhou Fen has done a very good job in other things except for Tian Yan's bar, which makes the monarchs and ministers of Qi very satisfied.
For example, since Zhou Fen became the Great Sitian, the grain output of Qi has been rising year by year, and the granaries of the Qi State are full of grain, whether it is the farmers' homes or the granaries of the Qi State government.
The reason why Qi was able to send a large amount of grain to Zhao without any pressure without any damage to himself was because Qi did not need to bear military rations, and a large part of the credit came from Zhou Fen.
Considering that this is an era of "food for the people", it can be said that as long as Zhou Fen does not die and rebel, then no matter which King of Qi comes to power, Zhou Fen's position is extremely stable, and he is not worried about being replaced at all.
So what is Zhou Fen worried about? Zhou Fen was not worried at all, and had no scruples at all.
Isn't it just a mouth cannon, come, have a good fight!
Just after Tian Yan finished speaking, Zhou Fen immediately let out a sneer and praised him.
Seeing Zhou Fen coming out, whether it was the other monarchs and ministers of the Qi State, or the party Tian Yan himself, they all showed an expression of "You are really here".
Zhou Fen bowed to the head of Qi Wang Jianshen, and then Shi Shiran spoke: "Tian Yan, the minister of the country, please punish the king!" ”
Although they were all mentally prepared, when Zhou Fen spoke, the monarchs and ministers of Qi still had a feeling of being thundered.
Tian Yan, who was the party concerned, couldn't help but shout angrily: "Zhou Fen, don't go too far!" ”
"Excessive?" Zhou Fen laughed, turned his head and looked at Tian Yan without showing weakness, and even sneered in his mouth: "You are such a minister, you have never done anything to Qi Guo, but you are in a high position by virtue of your life experience, and you can slander Zhongliang and make Qi Guo ashamed and victimized, and you deserve to be punished!" ”
Tian Yan was so angry by Zhou Fen's words that he couldn't help but roar: "Then you are talking about it, why can't you send troops to attack Chu!" ”
Zhou Fen snorted and said, "Those who send troops to attack Chu are really the next strategy!" Now Qin and Zhao stand side by side, Qin has Yan as an alliance, Zhao has an alliance of three Jins, and there are no allies abroad. Now that the Chu State is attacked, it is a good opportunity to form a good alliance with the Chu State. Qi and Chu are both powerful countries, and if the two countries form an alliance, they will resist Qin and Zhao Yi. How can you attack Chu and make Qi lose this ally out of thin air? ”
As soon as Zhou Fen's words came out, many of the Qi ministers present also nodded secretly, feeling that it seemed to be very reasonable.
After all, Qi Chu is also the former overlord, although it is indeed in decline now, and he is not ranked first or second, but he can be regarded as the third and fourth oldest, and he is still much stronger than Han Weiyan, the three weak chickens.
If you go head-to-head, these three and four will naturally not be the opponents of Zhao and Qin, but if they join forces, then they can also compete.
Tian Yan was obviously very dissatisfied with Zhou Fen's opinion, and said after sneering: "It's just nonsense!" Now that Qin Hewei and Han are attacking Chu, even if the Qi and Chu alliances are combined, how can they defeat Qin? ”
Zhou Fen immediately retorted: "Wei and Han are vassals of Zhao, and Zhao is the enemy of Qin, how can Zhao make Wei and Han subordinate to Qin and attack Chu?" It's nonsense! This is just a rumor released by Qin Wangji, and only a stupid person like Ru Tianyan can believe it! ”
Tian Yan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and shouted: "Zhou Fen, don't speak evil words like this!" ”
Zhou Fenman glanced at Tian Yan indifferently, and the mocking smile on the corner of his mouth was clearly visible: "Tian Yan, how can you take me?" ”
The two ministers glared at me and I glared at you, like two angry roosters who didn't give in to each other.
After a while, Tian Yan was the first to look away, and said to Qi Wangjian who was above: "Please rule on the king!" ”
Zhou Fen, who won the battle of eyes, glanced at Tian Yan triumphantly, and also turned around and said to Qi Wangjian, who was at the top: "Please rule the king!" ”
Qi Wangjian looked at the appearance of the two ministers, and he also had a big headache.
Other people's ministers are all solving problems for the king, but their own ministers are good, not to mention engaging in infighting every day, and kicking the problem to Qi Wangjian's side.
Please, the king, rule? I have a fart idea, my lord!
But things have come to this point, and Qi Wangjian, as the monarch, should come up with a charter for both reason.
Qi Wangjian was a little embarrassed at this time, his eyes were rolling wildly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Suddenly, Qi Wangjian's gaze must have fallen on someone in the main hall who had not spoken, as if he had found a savior in an instant.
"Ahem, that... Houqing, let me tell you what you think. ”
