Chapter 11: King Qi wants to make trouble
Ji Qiao had no choice but to retreat.
Ji Ling didn't squeak just now, and then he persuaded: "You won't be able to grab it, we might as well go back to the inn, so as not to be swept out of the house and embarrassed." ”
Ji Qiao replied very confidently: "If Lin Shi can't grab it, how can you save your mother?" ”
Ji Ling held his mouth again and said, "This place is too far away from the city, it's not fun at all." ”
Ji Qiao knew that she was bored, she grew up on a lonely island, and finally escaped, and she only entered the city not long ago, and now she has moved outside the city. So he comforted: "I'll talk to Lin Qinggongzi tomorrow, let him get a horse, after you learn to ride, it will be convenient to go out to play in the future." ”
Ji Ling was immediately happy: "It's about the same. ”
Ji Qiao told again: "You can't enter the city at this stage, you have to wait for you to raise more white." ”
Ji Ling nodded in agreement, but made another request: "I still sleep with you at night." ”
Ji Qiao shook his head and said: "Lin Qing Gongzi has specially arranged a room for you, not to mention that you are now a woman, how can you sleep with me, it will make people suspicious." ”
Although Ji Ling was a little reluctant, he couldn't help it, but he said, "You have time to bring a letter to my beggar friend Fan Dan, saying that I will go to see him in the future." ”
......
Early the next morning, Ji Qiao was suddenly called to get up, because Lin Yan was going to the court, and specially asked Ji Qiao to be a follower.
Lin Yan thinks that although Ji Qiao's character is not very reliable, he speaks sharply, responds quickly with his brain, and is not stage frightened, so he should be able to help in case of trouble.
Ji Qiao now knows why he didn't see Lin Yan in the court yesterday, it turned out that he went out too early and hadn't woken up yet.
However, the day before yesterday, Lin Yan did not go to court.
Outside the palace gate, Lin Yan entered, leaving a few family members to wait outside.
There are four of the family members Lin Yan brought this time, and Ji Qiao and the other three don't know each other.
However, the three of them were very polite to Ji Qiao, because Ji Qiao wore high-end clothes than them.
Ji Qiao got used to their politeness for a while, and said to the three of them: "You stay here, I'll do something and come back immediately." ”
Ji Qiao felt that it was too boring to stay here, so she went to find Fan Dan.
Fan Danzai looked at Ji Qiao carefully several times before saying, "You are really Brother Qiao!" ”
Ji Qiao replied proudly: "If it is fake, I have entered the Anbanghou Mansion and mixed with the first beauty." ”
Fan Dan said enviously: "Brother Qiao, looking at your dress, you must be doing well, and you will soar in the future, but remember me." ”
Ji Qiao smiled: "That's natural, but you have to do something for me now." ”
"What?" Fan Dan asked hurriedly.
Ji Qiao replied: "When you are okay on weekdays, find some beggar brothers and help me keep an eye on every move of Tian Yi, the son of the Marquis of Xuanwu." ”
"Why?" Fan Dan asked again.
Ji Qiao said angrily: "He wants to rob my wife." ”
Fan Dan was very puzzled: "Brother Qiao, you haven't been a shopkeeper for a few days, where did you come to your wife's room?" ”
Ji Qiao replied very seriously: "Yes, it's Lin Shi." ”
Fan Dan immediately said: "It's clear that Miss Lin Shi and Tian Yi have a marriage contract, and you want to grab it." ”
Ji Qiao smiled: "Don't care about it, Tian Yi is a pest, how can he be worthy of this first beauty in Linzi!" ”
Fan Dan didn't believe that Ji Qiao had this ability at all, so he persuaded: "Brother Qiao, Xuanwu Hou is rich, powerful and has soldiers, so don't be delusional!" ”
Ji Qiao replied very confidently: "You don't have to worry about these, just help me keep an eye on Tian Yi's every move." When it happens, the benefits are definitely yours. ”
Fan Dan had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Ji Qiao said again: "Also, as soon as something big happens in Linzi City, you must go to the Anbang Marquis Mansion to inform me as soon as possible." ”
Fan Dan was very puzzled, and looked at Ji Qiao very blankly, not knowing what he was going to do?
Ji Qiao didn't want to explain, so he directly gave him ten coins, and repeated what he just said, and then went back.
......
At this time, Lin Yan had not yet descended to the court.
Ji Qiao saw the family group next to him who accompanied his master to the court, and some of the teams were particularly luxurious. took the initiative to go forward to talk, wanting to set a little bit of a relationship with Lala.
But none of them looked at him.
Ji Qiao was very unhappy in his heart: Isn't it just like Lao Tzu, they are all subordinates, what's the big deal! In the future, I will lift shoes for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will not be able to look down on him!
However, Ji Qiao still took a closer look at the Xuanwu Marquis's family group.
Damn, Xuanwu Hou's carriage actually used four horses, which is too high-profile! Zhou Tianzi is only six! King Qi can drive up to five!
......
After a long time, Lin Yan finally went down to court.
However, Ji Qiao saw all the people in the court, his face was very solemn, and he didn't speak much. I wondered in my heart: in this era, there are people who talk and laugh when they go to work, but when they get off work, they have sad faces and sighs, like a dead father. Is it necessary to be so positive?
Ji Qiao thinks that it won't be like this! It should be something happened in the court, but it's not good to ask Lin Yan.
So the five masters and servants rode horses and silently rushed back to the Hou Mansion.
......
After dinner, Ji Qiao was called over by Lin Qing again.
This time, it was Lin Yan who spoke first: "Gongzi Qiao, I see that you feel better about yourself, this time I will help you refer to it: The king is going to send troops to attack Yan Kingdom, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Ji Qiao immediately thought about it:
In 380 B.C., Tian Yan, the king of Qi, wanted to establish his prestige and win the support of the people, and raised an army to attack the Yan State and capture Sanqiu.
King Yan asked Zhao for help, and King Zhao immediately informed King Wei and King Han. So the monarch of the Three Jin Dynasty personally led the army, and the soldiers worked together to save the Yan State and defeated the Qi army.
In 378 BC, Tian Yan refused to accept the Three Jin Dynasty and sent troops to attack Yan again.
King Yan still asked Zhao for help, and King Zhao led an army to attack Qi, and King Wei and King Han were soon drawn into the war under the pull of King Zhao. The Three Jin Dynasty united again and defeated the Qi army.
The Qi army was afraid of the might of the Three Jins, and kept retreating, and the Three Jin invaded the Qi mainland, and did not retreat until the soldiers approached Lingqiu.
(PS: The Xia Dynasty took spring January as the first month; The Shang Dynasty used December as the first month of winter; During the Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, November was the first month of winter; After Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, the first month of winter was October. It's all a lunar calendar, and for the sake of reading convenience, this book takes spring January as the first month, so some historical events, the month is also a little worse. )
Ji Qiao thought that according to historical records, now was the time when the King of Qi was preparing to attack Yan, so he replied directly: "Qi cannot win, and the Three Jin Dynasty will continue to work together to save Yan and invade Qi itself." ”
Lin Yan hurriedly asked, "How do you know that the Three Jin Dynasty will unite and attack the Qi country?" ”
Ji Qiao knew that he had missed his mouth, so he hurriedly explained: "Guess, if I am the Three Jins, I will definitely attack the territory of Qi and teach the King of Qi a lesson, lest he never give up and always think about attacking Yan Kingdom." ”
Lin Yan thought it made sense, but asked again: "Then how can I persuade the king to cancel the plan to attack the Yan Kingdom?" ”
Ji Qiao said in his heart: This battle has really happened in history, and the king of Qi is determined to fight, how can he be persuaded to do so? So he replied: "Why do you want to persuade, just let him fight, you just state that it is powerful, and you can pay attention to Sanjin." After King Qi lost, he would naturally think of your original suggestion. ”
Lin Yan said with a straight face: "Your idea is a bit selfish, and you don't stand on the position of the country and the people." The State of Qi attacked Yan last year, but it was defeated, the national strength was damaged, and the people complained. It's only been a year off, and it's very inappropriate to attack Yan again! ”
