Chapter 139: The Qin State deceived people too much

"Sir, will this negotiation be difficult?" Lou Yan saw Su Li's expression, he was not pretending, and he also felt that this negotiation would be difficult.

Su Li let out a deep breath, "Changping, we were defeated in the front, and we took the initiative to seek peace later." This negotiation! Let's wait to be slaughtered by the Qin State! ”

"Although our country was defeated, the Qin State did not take advantage." Lou Yan saw that the other party's words were too exaggerated, and said disapprerovingly, "Let's just lose some money and give up the party." Qin State, how dare he make excessive demands. ”

"It's still a trivial matter to lose some money and give up the party." Su Li felt a bad feeling welling up in his heart, "King Qin spent his blood to defeat us, so naturally he still wants us to cut the city, so he is willing to give up." ”

Lou Yan breathed quickly and said, "King Qin will want us to cut the city?" ”

"The city must be cut." Su Li knew that the Qin State defeated the princes and was bound to cede the land for compensation, and this time was no exception, "As for how much to cut, this is the point." ”

"Sir thinks that the king of Qin wants us to cut down a few cities."

"At least ten cities."

"Ten Cities." Lou Yan said loudly: "This, will it be too much." ”

"Ten cities is too many." Su Li said uncertainly: "What I can do is to strive for a few fewer cities." ”

While he was talking, a person walked in and saluted, "Sir, this is the document sent by Doctor Qin." ”

Lou Yan stepped forward to take the paperwork and sent it down.

Su Li held his forehead and said with a headache: "I drank wine, my eyes are not good, I can't see what is written, you read it to me." ”

Lou Yan opened the paperwork and said with a smile: "I was said by Mr. Yes." The king of Qin invited Mr. to enter the palace tomorrow to discuss peace talks. ”

"Tonight, I'm going to go to bed early." Su Li yawned and said with a tired face: "Only by raising your spirit can you deal with the courtiers of the Qin State." ”

The next day, Qin Wangji summoned his ministers into the palace and asked, "Wu Anjun took Changping and wants to attack Handan." Tell me whether the widow will fight or not. ”

Fan Ju motioned to a minister, who understood, and said, "Your Majesty, we have been fighting with Korea for three years, and Changping has been fighting with Zhao for another three years. We have been on expeditions all year round, and there have been complaints in the country. The minister thinks that it cannot be fought. ”

Another person came out and said: "Our Changping victory is also a tragic victory." Today, our country is empty and we are running out of food and grass. The soldiers who went out on the expedition were also exhausted. The minister thinks that it cannot be fought. ”

"The Zhao clan is good at fighting, and attacking Handan is another bitter and vicious battle. We will continue to fight, and it will take a few more years. ”

"The princes are eyeing our country, and if we attack Zhao, they will help. Minister, think that you can't fight. ”

Seeing that it was the courtier's will to stop the war, Qin Wangji looked at Fan Ju and asked, "Qin Xiang, you said, can the widow fight Handan." ”

"As you say." Fan Julang said: "If we continue to fight with Zhao Guo, we will only lose both." Ministers, also do not approve of fighting Handan. ”

The other courtiers saw the direction of the wind and also said in unison: "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

"You don't approve of fighting Handan, and the widow will not fight Handan as you say." Qin Wangji shouted: "Spread the envoy of Zhao State, enter the palace." ”

Su Li looked dignified, strode to the Qin Palace, and saluted: "Foreign minister, Su Li, on the order of King Zhao, sent an envoy to the Qin State." ”

King Qin looked at the person in front of him, facing himself, his expression was calm, he was not afraid at all, and asked, "What are you doing in my Xianyang under the order of King Zhao?" Why, Handan can't stay any longer, King Zhao asked you to take refuge in Xianyang. ”

When Qin Chen heard this, he also laughed with Qin Wangji.

Su Li faced the ridicule of the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State, and did not sneer at each other, and said in a calm tone: "If Handan can't stay, I will go to the Qi State." ”

Seeing that the other party was facing this kind of scene, Qin Wangji could still keep his words calm, and deliberately raised his voice and shouted: "You look down on Qin Guo." ”

"Qin Law is too strict and too tightly controlled. If you want to mix in the Qin State, you have to rely on military merit. Su Li said bitterly: "I don't have any ability, if I come to the Qin State, I won't starve to death." ”

Seeing that the other party's words were looking down on the Qin State, Qin Wangji snorted coldly: "If you go to the Qi State, you won't starve to death." ”

"I'm still a little bit educated, and I can read and write." Su Li said without humility or arrogance, "If I go to Qi Country, I can still teach, and it is no problem to make a living." ”

Fan Ju was unhappy when he heard this, and said disgustedly: "You can go to Qi State to teach, or you can come to Qin State to teach." ”

"Can Qin State teach?" Su Li shook his head and asked, "The law of the Qin State, Qin knows better than me, an outsider!" ”

Qin Wangji retreated and said: "If you are willing to come to Qin, you can teach the children and grandchildren of the widow to study." ”

Su Li was flattered and said: "The foreign minister is shallow, how dare he teach the prince and grandson their studies." ”

Fan Ju couldn't have the upper hand on this issue, and he didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he changed the topic and said: "You are ordered by King Zhao to come to Xianyang to do something." ”

Su Li Wen said: "The foreign ministers came to sue for peace on the order of King Zhao. ”

Qin Wangji smiled and said, "You came to Xianyang to lobby for Zhao Wangdan!" ”

Su Li replied in a measured manner: "I am here for the peace of Qin and Zhao, and I can also be a lobbyist of King Zhao as King Qin said." ”

Qin Wangji saw that the other party was quite honest, and said with a smile: "I heard that the Su family, there was a Su Dynasty in the past, and there was a saying that King Yan was in the Zen position. and used peach wood and clay puppets to persuade Meng Weijun not to enter the Qi. Later, there was Su Qin, who separated the Qi country and helped King Yan Zhao break the shame of Qi. You are also a man of the Su clan, what are your abilities compared to your brother. ”

"Me!" Su Li laughed at himself: "My ability is better than my brother." If I had my brother's talent, how could I be so mixed. ”

Qin Wangji saw that the other party didn't have a decent thing, and he also thought that he really didn't mix well, and his talent was far inferior to that of his brother.

Fan Ju asked: "Sincerity is needed to seek peace, I don't know how high King Zhao's sincerity is." ”

Su Li said: "Seeking peace is a matter for the two countries. King Zhao alone is sincere, but it is not good. I don't know what the attitude of King Qin is towards seeking peace. ”

Qin Wangji said coldly: "King Zhao's sincerity has impressed the widow. The widow can consider the matter of King Zhao's quest for peace. ”

"King Zhao is sincere enough." Su Li said on the one hand, and on the other hand, he took out Zhao Wangdan's national letter, and sent it forward with both hands, "Please, King Qin will look at it." ”

Fan Ju saw King Qin cast a look, stepped forward to take the paperwork, and faced King Qin.

Qin Wangji didn't look at it either, and shouted, "Read." ”

Fan Ju opened the national letter and read it aloud: "This battle is the crime of widows. In order to create peace between the two countries, the widow is willing to give up the party and compensate five carts of treasures. ”

"Five carts of treasure, give up the party?" Qin Wangji shouted angrily: "How can there be such an easy thing in the world. ”

Su Li asked, "King Qin is not satisfied with King Zhao's reparation. ”

"Shangdang was ceded to the widow by the king of Han, and the king of Zhao accepted the enemy of the widow. The outnumbered people sent troops just to get their own things back. Qin Wangji's tone quickened, and his anger was even worse, "Shangdang was taken back by force by a widow, not by King Zhao. ”

Su Li said calmly: "King Zhao compensated the Qin State with five carts of treasures. King Qin, isn't that enough? ”

Qin Wangji said in a gloomy tone: "The widow has died so many soldiers, King Zhao, these five carts of treasures are too few." ”

Su Li asked, "How much treasure does King Qin need to be satisfied?" ”

Qin Wangji said in a loud voice: "At least twenty cars." ”

"King Qin's request, King Zhao can't meet it!" Su Li said helplessly: "There are so many treasures added up by Zhao Guo. ”

"You're telling jokes!" Qin Wangji mocked: "King Zhao can't even take out twenty carts of treasures. ”

Su Li said: "King Zhao really can't take it out." ”

Fan Ju threatened: "If you can't take it out, the two countries can only continue to fight." ”

"If you want to fight, just fight!" Su Li's tone was not high, but it made King Qin hear clearly, "The country of Zhao is exhausted, and he can't get the money, and he is still afraid of war?" ”

"Presumptuous." Qin Wangji said angrily: "You dare to threaten the widow. ”

"If I didn't threaten King Qin, it was really King Qin who deceived people too much." Su Li met King Qin's angry look, "King Zhao can't come up with the money, King Qin has to persecute King Zhao." What else can King Zhao do besides go to war with King Qin. ”

Seeing that the negotiations were at an impasse, Fan Ju thought of a way and hurriedly said: "King Zhao can't come up with the money, so he can cut the city for compensation." ”

"Zhao Guo's land is there." Su Li asked, "King Qin wants King Zhao to cut a few cities for compensation." ”

King Qin said in a loud voice: "Ten cities." ”

"Ten cities?" Su Li looked at Qin Wangji with an exaggerated expression, and bargained: "Too much, less of it." ”

Qin Wangji vetoed in a non-negotiable tone: "Ten cities are ten cities, and if there is one less city, the widow will not agree." ”

Su Li saw that he couldn't talk about it, so he said helplessly: "Forget it, don't talk about it." King Qin, let's go to war with King Zhao! ”

Qin Wangji didn't expect Su Li to say such a thing, and he didn't know how to answer it for a while.

Fan Ju didn't want to end the topic so early, and asked, "King Zhao is willing to cut a few cities." ”

Su Li said: "Three cities." ”

Fan Ju waved his hand and said, "Three cities, it's too few." ”

Su Li stretched out five fingers and shouted in a trembling tone, "Five cities at most." ”

"Nope." Fan Ju said: "We can't accept this number. ”

Seeing Su Li's expression, Qin Wangji guessed that cutting the five cities, this was King Zhao's final bottom line, and shouted: "That's it, that's it." The widow took a step back, and King Zhao also took a step back, six cities. ”

"Six cities?" Su Li was frightened, and looked helpless, "This, I can't be the master." I have to discuss with King Zhao before I can reply to King Qin. ”

Fan Ju saw that Su Li planned to delay the negotiations between the two countries by 'delaying', how could he give him a chance, "Once you go, once you return, how long will it take." How can I not know your thoughts? ”

Su Li showed an innocent expression, "I said to give you twenty cities, you are happy, and I am happy." But, will King Zhao agree? Back then, Zhang Yi said that he would give King Huai of Chu 600 li, but the state of Chu got 6 li. Eventually, it led to a great war between Qin and Chu. If I learn from Zhang Yi, I will make peace. If King Zhao doesn't agree, the two countries still have to go to war! ”

Su Li not only said that he couldn't call the shots, but also exposed the treachery of the Qin State.

Zhang Yi bullied Chu, a country is in a state, and he is ashamed of the world for doing such a thing. The state of Qin had no faith, and it was also spread all over the princes. This is a disgraceful thing for the Qin State, and it was said by Su Li casually. Although Qin Wangji was angry, he couldn't reprimand Su Li angrily.

Qin Wangji bypassed this matter and said in a domineering tone, "You go back and tell King Zhao that it is not okay to have six cities and one less city." If King Zhao does not cut the six cities, the widow will cut down Handan. If King Zhao is sincere, he will call Pingyuan Jun to come to Qin to talk to the widow. ”

"The foreign minister retreated, and immediately rushed back to Handan, and informed King Zhao of the conditions offered by King Qin." After Su Li finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Fan Ju saw Su Li's figure walking out of the hall and shouted, "Your Majesty, you can't let Su Li leave like this." ”

"He's just an envoy, and it's useless to keep him. Widowed, forcing him to agree to our conditions, it is useless for Zhao Guojun and his ministers to repent. ”

Su Li walked out of the Qin Palace, Lou Yan saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Seeking peace, has it been negotiated?" ”

Su Li signaled that there were too many people here, so there was no more to say. Back at the pavilion, Su Li said, "I couldn't negotiate." ”

Lou Yan exclaimed: "Mr. is out, haven't negotiated yet?" ”

"The king of Qin wants my country to compensate twenty carts of treasures and cut ten cities."

"Qin Guo deceives people too much, and no one cares about really bullying Zhao State?"

"How can I agree to King Qin's conditions. Quick, get ready, we're ready to go back to Handan. ”

"If it's not appropriate, we can continue to talk. How can I go back to Handan. ”

"I can't call the shots on the conditions offered by the Qin State. It's useless for me to stay here. Su Li still didn't say a word, he sent an envoy to the Qin State to sue for peace, this is just a superficial phenomenon. He came just to show weakness and confuse the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State, and then buy time for the monarchs and ministers of the Zhao State to prepare for the battle of Handan and start a war with the Qin army.

Su Li returned to Handan, walked into the palace, and pleaded: "Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent and has failed to conclude peace between the two countries. ”

Zhao Wangdan asked, "King Qin is not satisfied with the conditions offered by the widow. ”

Su Li said: "I don't dare to say the conditions of King Qin. ”

Zhao Wang Dan said: "What conditions are the conditions of King Qin." ”

Su Li Yangyang said frustratedly: "The King of Qin wants us to give up the party unconditionally, cut ten cities, and compensate twenty carts of treasures. ”

As soon as Su Li's words fell, the courtiers of Zhao State shouted indignantly: "Qin State deceives people too much. ”

"Qin Wang'an dares to bully me, and the Zhao family has no man." Zhao Wangdan also blew up, and said angrily: "King Qin is too bullying the widow. ”

Su Li showed an aggrieved look, and said, "King Qin said that I am not qualified to negotiate, so please invite Pingyuan Jun to enter Qin to talk." ”

The courtier's gaze looked at Pingyuan-kun, waiting for his answer.

"King Qin deceived me too much." The state of Qin asked for twenty carts of treasures, cut ten cities, and rushed back to the envoys of the state of Zhao. Zhao Wangdan was insulted by this, how could he not be angry.

Pingyuan Jun said calmly: "Thanks to the King of Qin, I will go to the State of Qin and negotiate with the King of Qin." I want to see how far King Qin wants to bully my country. ”
