The Chaos rippled with the waves, and the Red Machine, who had given the military order, did not immediately order to open fire. Whether Qi is Qin or not, the princess of Qi will be the queen of Chu in the future, and this is just a small conflict between Chu and Qi......

That's what Red Guy thinks in his heart. This is also the reason why he did not order the use of chain bullets and shotguns, and he did not kill and injure Qi soldiers too much. The two ships staggered by, and the Chaos-class gunboats that gradually formed a column formation were like a nail poked into the Qi army's boat formation, and the gunboats in this formation could fire on both sides, and the firepower output reached the maximum, but if they hesitated, when the nail completely pierced the Qi army's boat formation, the Chaos at the front would lose the best position to fire their guns.

The worry casually mentioned by the general of the boat division, Hong, made Xiong Jing forget for a moment that he was in the bright spring light. Judging from the news received in recent days, the internal political situation of Qin is changing again, and the relationship between Zhao and Qin is also improving at an alarming rate.

It may be the reason why Zhao offered a huge iron technique to Qin - when Mi Xuan issued a warning from Chen County, the iron smelting craftsmen of Chu State had already arrived in Handan, but this was not without countermeasures, and various possibilities had been considered before building the government - or it could be some other reason, one of which worries Xiong Jing the most is the changes he has brought to history.

All the countries in the world, except for the monarch of Qi who ignores mundane things and seems to be in Taoyuan, the monarchs of other countries are all like ghosts. The state of Chu is rising, and all countries can feel it, although this rise is harmless and peaceful. A large amount of gold and silver from various countries is flowing to the Chu State. The nations compete for power, and gold and silver are actually very cheap things. 'Jin Yiliang was born in the territory, and Su Shishi died abroad. Su Shishi was born in China, and Jin Yiliang died abroad. If the country is good and the gold is in the territory, the gold millet will die twice, the warehouse will be empty, and the country will be weak. If the country is good and the millet is born in the territory, then the golden millet is born twice, the warehouse is two solid, and the country is strong. ’

According to the Legalist Shang Yingzhi, the monarch should be happy outside the Jinsheng realm (country), because the Jinsheng territory is equal to the territory of the Susheng. What the state of Chu is doing now is the way of 'weak country', selling materials and taking back money, which is an act that Legalists are extremely opposed. However, the military technology of the Chu State is opening up the distance with other countries, which is the most taboo of the Legalists, or the Qin State, and the things sold are either strange and ingenious, or industrial products that can be produced continuously.

It is reported that Zhao Qin will make an alliance next month, is it possible for Qin to point the finger at Chu again? This is a question that Xiong Jing has been thinking about in the past few days, and it is also a question that the important ministers of Chu State are thinking about. Today's alliance is good, tomorrow's attack, with Qin's consistent lack of faith, this is really a normal thing.

"The king, the minister thinks that he should send an envoy to Zhao and talk about the alliance. Zhao and Qin are in alliance, the Qin people will attack me, and the alliance Zhao can protect himself. As soon as he returned to Yingdu, Zi Mo came to him, and he also heard the news of Zhao Qinmeng's goodness.

"Zhao envoy to enter Chu to seek alliance, my country has not allowed, my country is now sending envoy to Zhao to seek alliance, will King Zhao agree?" Xiong Jing's voice raised an octave. "Besides, the Qin people haven't said that they want to attack my Chu State again."

"King, the Zhao people have not agreed to the alliance with our country, but they have not said that they will not ally with the Zhao country." Zimo emphasized. "At that time, the king only said that it was necessary to set a national policy, and asked Zhao to wait. And then because of the new policy of our country and the people of the country, the government needs to be decided by the people of the country, at this time spring ploughing, the people of the country must be May at the earliest, but the Zhao envoy has returned to Zhao, so my Chu State sent an envoy at this time to tell Zhao that our country is willing to ally Zhao. ”

Jing Zimo said this, it seems that this is the truth again. Xiong Jing couldn't help laughing, and after laughing, he said: "Some people laughed at the former Zheng Guo, saying that Zheng Guo was in the Jin Dynasty and in the twilight of Chu, do you want to make the people who are not in the Qin Dynasty and the Zhao Dynasty?" Not to ally Zhao but to Qin, this is the established policy of the Yan Dynasty in the past, how can it be changed if it is changed? En......, you don't want to help Shen Yinyu speak, right? ”

"Minister, minister has no such intention." Son Mo Dabai. Because of bowing his head, he couldn't see his expression at all, but Xiong Jing knew in his heart that with the news of Zhao Qin's alliance, there would definitely be some people who would mention the strategy of the former alliance Zhao again. Shen Yinyu resigned, and Yang Wenjun became Dazai, which is the embodiment of the pro-Qin line of the Chu State, and now the situation has changed suddenly, and some people have begun to make small calculations.

"If you don't mean to, then step aside." Xiong Jing waved his hand and no longer talked to Zimo. After he left, he asked Xiang Changjiang again: "Xuan Xiao has arrived?" ”

"Tell the king, the young lady has arrived, and she has entered the Yangyuntai." Chang Jiang said.

In order not to make much fanfare, Mi Xuan was picked up by Chang Jiang. But he didn't live in the inn as Concubine Zhao said, but arranged to enter Yangyuntai outside the palace. Yangyuntai is the platform of clouds and rain in Wushan, the king of Chu in the past, originally in Wushan, after moving east, this platform was repaired in the northwest corner of the outer city. This is the remnant vein of the Purple Mountain, which is just like Wu Mountain.

When Xiong Jing arrived at Yangyuntai, it was already dark, and the palace maids were preparing dinner. Mi Xuan didn't have the slightest appetite, and after entering the city, she forgot her previous grievances because of the 'scenery' of Yingdu. At that time, the car entered the city from the north gate, because it was not the state guest who did not open the middle gate, the car began to be blocked when it entered the city, and it was blocked until the big city passed, and the number of carts and ox carts on the road was reduced.

Chaos is Mi Xuan's first impression of Yingdu, especially compared to Xianyang, where everything is in order, the chaos in Yingdu has reached the point where people are not angry but laugh. Since it is so chaotic, the sanitation is naturally unsatisfactory, there is absolutely no cow dung, horse feces on the avenue of Xianyang, not even a straw can be seen, but not in Yingdu, because of the mud, there are several sections of the road can not be seen.

How a country is, the country is the best embodiment. Although she is not used to the chaos of Yingdu, Mi Xuan still likes the pastries of her home country. Baskets, honey bait, egg cakes, dumplings, and some dried fruits, the little girl spends the afternoon eating snacks except for washing and napping.

"Son-in-law, the king is here." The maid hurried in to report the news, and at this time Mi Xuan was still nibbling on the red fruit cake.

"Brother Wang is here......" Mi Xuan put the red fruit cake back into the small basket and quickly got up. I don't want to hear a few voices from the temple people to meet the king from the side of the Ming Hall, Xiong Jing has already arrived.

"I've seen ......" Although Mi Xuan's body was plain, his eyes looked at Xiong Jing.

Under the anointing fire, a five-foot-tall man in a cloth came on foot, followed by several temple people, holding a few anointing candles to light the way. Although his face is immature, his eyebrows, eyes, and expression are all like those of adults, and his brows are still wrinkled.

"Excuse me." The voice is neat and calm, without the childishness that a child should have. "Xianyang has traveled thousands of miles so far, is it safe all the way?"

"Son-in-law......" Mi Xuan seemed to be in a fugue, and the maid behind her hurriedly whispered. That's why she said: "Brother Xie, this journey is very safe." ”

"That's good." Xiong Jing has sat down. "Is the Empress Dowager Zu okay?"

"Brother Xie. The Empress Dowager Zu is unharmed. Mi Xuan also sat down, but the mat did not sit upright.

"That's good. Spring is warm or cold, I have sent a letter to greet the Empress Dowager last month, I must have received it. "Xiong Jing had to pull up the routine." Xianyang still needs to wear a fur coat at this time, and Yingbai can already wear a tie clothes, so Xuan is used to it, right? ”

"I—I'm used to it." Mi Xuan agreed, and the maid next to her coughed when she saw this. When Xiong Jing looked at the maid, she bowed down and said: "Tell the king: After the son-in-law entered the city, the frame was sandwiched between the carriages and waited for an hour......

"Shut up." Mi Xuan reprimanded, and replied: "Please atone for the king's sins." This slave has been with me since he was a child, and he has no courtesy. Not down yet! ”

Although Mi Xuan told Zhao Guo that he would offer the art of iron to Qin, there were still many things that he had not said; Xiong Jing also had a lot to ask in his heart, and when Mi Xuan drove away the maids around him, he also said to the temple behind him: "You guys should go down too." ”

In the huge room, only two people were left sitting opposite each other, and Xiong Jing didn't know which thing to ask for a while. But Mi Xuan smiled and said, "Today in Huaishui, I saw Brother Wang taking the east and going down. ”

The boat is very small, the so-called one top three boats, long-distance transportation of goods is generally a boat. Qi Xuan didn't know the big wing warship, and only thought it was a warship. Xiong Jing didn't explain anything, he knelt down and said: "Thousands of miles away, sleeping in the open air, Xuan's wife has worked hard." ”

"I," Xiong Jing thanked formally, but Mi Xuan was a little embarrassed. She suddenly straightened up, "Everything in the Qin State is secret, and even if the nobleman's mansion does not have the eyes and ears of the Shaofu, there are many traitors. Therefore, Uncle Ji's words can only be told by mouth, and cannot be seen in Jian. Uncle Ji said: 'There may be repetitions between Qin and Chu, but the king will definitely attack Zhao. There may be repetitions between Qin and Chu, but the king will definitely attack Zhao. ’”

"There may be repetitions between Qin and Chu, but the king will definitely cut down Zhao ......" Xiong Jing silently thought. The brow furrowed even deeper.

Historically, Qin was indeed the first to destroy Zhao; And according to the theory of the earth, the Qin State should also destroy the Zhao State first, and if the Zhao State is not destroyed, the Han Wei State will be destroyed, and the Chu State is of course also the target, but the Chu State can retreat to the south of the Huai River. Wei and Qi were only interested in the land of Huaibei, and had no interest in the land of Huainan and Jiangdong.

Unless the King of Qin felt that the state of Chu, which was constantly advancing in technology, was a threat to dominate the world, it would be impossible to defeat Chu. It is also unlikely that Han Wei will be killed. The destruction of the Han and Wei states will not only shock the world, but Chu and Zhao will form a de facto alliance, echoing the north and south, and jointly dealing with the resistance to the Qin state. Confusing Qi Guo to stay out of the matter, divide Chu Zhao, and defeat one of them first, this is the feasible strategy.

Thinking of this, Xiong Jing asked, "Zhao Qin Xiangmeng, is it intentional for my brother?" ”

"Uncle Ji didn't say." Mi Xuan thought about it and said. Xiong Qi told her a lot of things, but there was no one.

"Then why did the King of Qin ally Zhao?" Xiong Jing asked again. "The King of Qin once questioned Handan, and hated the Zhao people the most...... Could it be that he is a fake? ”

"I don't know, and Uncle Ji didn't say it." Mi Xuan shook her head one after another.

"What else does Brother Shu have to say to Xuan Xuan to tell me personally?" Even if Xiong Jing guessed correctly, he couldn't be sure.

"Uncle Ji said, please ask Brother Wang to marry Princess Qian to King Qin, don't be arrogant. When the Empress Dowager heard that the younger brother was unwilling to marry the princess into Qin, she was worried about her mother country and did not eat for a few days. Mi Xuan said. As he spoke, he looked at Xiong Jing again.

"Whether Princess Qian marries King Qin or not, she has to decide for herself, if she doesn't want to, I won't force her to marry." Xiong Jing was still thinking about the true intentions of King Qin and Zhao.
