The Battle of Hangu Pass ended with the defeat of the Han army at Xiuyu and the confrontation between the Han and Zhao armies at Wenyi. The pressure of the Qin army at Hangu Pass was relieved, and the Zhao army stationed in Wenyi was also under the auspices of Zhao Hao and Storm Kite, and never advanced for half a minute. In order to take revenge on the six eastern countries, especially Han and Wei, the king of Qin demanded that Korea depose the crown prince and set up another crown prince, otherwise he would raise heavy troops to attack Korea.

At the same time, Qi took advantage of Wei's defeat and Qin's defeat at the same time, sent troops to Wei and defeated the Wei army at Guanjin. The heir of the king of Wei has only been the king of Wei for two years, but he has suffered two defeats in a row, and his heart is even more unpleasant, so he is angry and aimed at the rhinoceros Gongsun Yan. not only removed him from the position of prime minister, but also handed over the power to Gongsun Yan's political enemy Tian Xu. Tian Xu was already dissatisfied with Gongsun Yan, but at this moment, he was supported by the heir of King Wei, and he became even more unscrupulous, and he attacked Gongsun Yan everywhere without mercy. So much so that Hui Shi couldn't stand it, and pleaded for Gongsun Yan many times. However, Hui Shi is now too old and can no longer do anything about government affairs, how can he point fingers at the heirs of King Wei? finally passed away after a serious illness.

Gongsun Yan finally left South Korea after being excluded. Although King Han knew that Gongsun Yan was a great talent, but now that Korea was also under the threat of Qin, he did not dare to oppose Qin. In the end, King Han, persuaded by Gongsun Yan, went to the shore gate to become the lord of the city, and once again stood on the front line of resistance to the Qin army. When the heir of the king of Wei saw that Gongsun Yan had left the Wei State, there was no need for Tian Xu to point fingers there, so he obeyed Hui Shi's dying wish, sued for peace with the Qi State, and asked to send Tian Ying's son Tian Wen to the Wei State as the prime minister. This request was approved by Tian Ying, and after communication with the king of Qi, Tian Wen was sent to Wei to serve as the prime minister. In fact, everyone knows that Tian Wen, the prime minister, has greater symbolic meaning than practical significance, and he hardly needs to ask about government affairs on weekdays.

The battle between Chu and Qin in the area of Fangcheng also entered the stage of stalemate, and the Qin army, which had freed up its hands from Hangu and Wencheng, encountered the stubborn resistance of Zhaoyang, and the two sides did not give in to each other, and won and lost each other. And Song Wangyan's rearmament in the Song State not only captured five cities in Qi State, two cities in Wei State, but even Chu State was taken away by him 500 miles of land. Become the biggest variable in this region. So taking advantage of the alliance between Qi and Wei, Chu and Qi also signed an alliance, although there were constraints from the Song State, but the east of Chu was also a hidden worry.

At this time, Tian Biyi, the new king of Qi, was still immersed in the sweetness of becoming the king of Qi, singing and dancing all day long, so happy. Tian Pan can't handle government affairs normally, and has handed over important military affairs to Kuang Zhang to deal with, and Tian Ying, the old fox who has left Linzi far away and returned to his fiefdom Xue Cheng since Tian Bibi took the throne, has also reined in, but in his heart, he no longer wants to return to Linzi all the time.

Until this day, the arrival of a young man gave him hope.

Su Qin knocked on the door of Tian Ying's house again, the reason why he said it again was because he was kicked out last time in Linzi, and this time, he still came here. From Handan to Xuecheng, from Zhao to Qi. In the past few years, he has devoted himself to studying, and he has come into contact with Sima Qian, Le Yi and others in Zhao State, and he believes that this time, he will not be driven out again.

The starting point is this gate.

Tian Ying put the book on the case, looked at the old servant, and said with a shocked face: "What did you say?" ”

The old servant said in a proper manner: "The old servant said that there is a person outside the door, saying that there is a treasure that is rare in a thousand years, and he wants to give it to his master." ”

Tian Ying snorted, "Although a certain is not a prince of a country, he is also well-informed, the country of Qi is rich for thousands of miles, and there are countless treasures." As a Xiangbang back then, he naturally had seen it, and some people even said that it was a rare treasure for a thousand years, which was really nonsense. After that, he waved his hand, "Just stuff him with some money and send it away." With that, he continued to read.

The old servant received the order and was about to turn around, but he heard Tian Ying say, "Wait." You just said that this man was dressed luxuriously? ”

The old servant thought for a moment, "Yes, looking at the clothes, it doesn't look like an ordinary person. ”

Tian Ying thought for a while, put down the book, "Let him come in." ”

After Su Qin came in, I saw him walking slowly in front of him, his demeanor was generous, and he was quite polite to everyone, and he couldn't help but think a little more highly of him in his heart. Su Qin is a handsome person of a generation, and he is dressed as gentle as jade at the moment, and his eyebrows are heroic, and he has the suave posture of a teenager. Su Qin bowed and said loudly: "Su Jizi, a person from Luoyi, meet Jing Guojun." ”

Tian Ying no longer despised him, so he said: "No courtesy." Sir is here, I don't know what it is? ”

Su Qin said unhurriedly: "I have two treasures, and I am willing to present them to Jing Guojun." ”

Tian Ying chuckled and said: "Among the Seven Kingdoms, there are both princes of the Son of Heaven and hermit generals, why does Mr. want to dedicate the treasure to his subordinates?" ”

"Although the princes of the Son of Heaven are high in the mountains, their horizons may not be broad; Although the hermit general is outstanding, he may not be a sincere person. The so-called pearl is covered with dust, and the sage lives in it, which is nothing more than that the treasure cannot meet the master, and cannot bloom its brilliance. These two treasures must only be worthy of possession by a virtuous person like Jing Guojun. ”

There are words in Su Qin's words, how can Tian Ying not hear it, it is nothing more than saying that he not only has a treasure, but also a treasure, but he has never been able to meet the master, and the pearl is covered with dust. Seeing him Tian Ying today, one is to offer treasure, and the other is to hope to be able to serve Tian Ying.

"Although the treasure is good, it should be guarded by the Ming King. Although the name is Jing Guojun, it is nothing more than an ordinary Shiqing, I am afraid that Mr. These two treasures are not blessed, Mr. might as well take the treasure and invest elsewhere. A certain talent, some savings, willing to support Mr. ”

Tian Ying's reaction was as expected by Su Qin, a person with a reputation like Tian Ying would never lose face because of one or two treasures, the so-called famous family, even if the family is in the middle of the road, will maintain their arrogance, not to mention that Tian Ying is only being snubbed by the Qi State now, and he still has a certain strength.

"I want Jing Guojun to know, although he is not talented, but these two treasures are definitely what Jing Guojun wants very much, and this world is so big, there must be only one person who has this treasure, and others will never have it."

"Hehe, I'm old, I don't like these gorgeous things, but I like to write about light and simple things."

Su Qin's eyes lit up and said, "This treasure of contemptible people is definitely the most light and simple thing. ”

"Oh?"

"Indeed, I don't know if you have ever seen people, have you ever heard of 'Big Fish in the Sea'?"

"Big fish?" Tian Ying was really surprised when she heard the name, and couldn't help but repeat, "What kind of fish is this?" ”

Su Qin saw that the other party had taken the bait, but he didn't say much, just stood there stunned, silent. Seeing the other party's posture, Tian Ying suddenly thought that he hadn't let Su Qin sit down after talking for so long, and knew that it was making the other party angry, so he quickly got up and gave up his seat. Su Qin was no longer polite, knelt beside him, and talked eloquently.

"The so-called big fish of the sea is not a fish. Rather, he said that the big fish in the sea, the fishing net could not trap him, and the fishing hook could not pull him, so he was very proud, and he thought that he could gallop the world. However, the waves knocked him to the shore, and no matter how much he tossed, he could not return to the sea, and even ants dared to bite him, and before that, he became a pile of dry bones. ”

After hearing what Su Qin said, Tian Ying fell into deep thought, and soon, he said with a deep face: "What does Mr. mean?" ”

"Although Jing Guojun is well-known all over the world and has been famous for a long time, but when it comes to it, he is just Jing Guojun of Qi State, and when he arrives in Wei State, he may not be treated like this, and when he arrives in Chu State, he may not have such a status. Why? Because you are a native of Qi and the heir of King Qi Wei, this is what everyone respects you the most, and others, such as your talent and your heart, are not the most important things. ”

"As a certain person said just now, why are you being squeezed out by the current King of Qi now, it is nothing more than building a city in Xue Di to disgust the current King of Qi. And Qi is like the water that shelters you, you are like this fish. Once you leave the water and leave the protection of the Qi country, no matter how great your skills are, you will not be able to survive in this troubled world. I'm afraid that even the Song Kingdom can swallow you in one bite, and when the time comes, what's the use of you leaving a Xue City empty? ”

Su Qin's words stabbed Tian Ying the biggest sore spot. In fact, when he was the king of Qi Wei, in order to compete for power with the current Qi Wang Tian Biyi, on the one hand, he deceived and concealed the subordinates from the king of Qi Wei, and on the other hand, he built a city in Xuecheng on a large scale, all kinds of fortifications were readily available, and all kinds of weapons and rituals were well prepared, as if he was a country on his own, and he did not put the king of Qi Tian Piyi in his eyes, even if the king of Qi succeeded to the throne, he only went to his post to seek perfection, and the advice of the doorman was also dismissed. It's not that he Tian Ying is bold, but he is angry with Qi Wang Tian Piyi.

But Su Qin told himself in another way that the consequences of doing so were very dangerous, although the King of Qi would not do anything to him, but no one dared to guarantee that other countries would not move that mind. Rather than this, why not give in to King Qi?

"What Mr. said, a certain is naturally clear." Tian Ying smiled bitterly, "But Mr. knows that the feud between a certain and King Qi is too deep, and if it can be reconciled as soon as possible, I am afraid there is no need to delay today." It is not a conspiracy to stand on its own, but a precarious future. ”

Su Qin still said with a smile on his face: "As long as Jing Guojun has the intention of being soft, the rest of the matter will be handed over to the next one." ”

Tian Ying looked at this young man with a confident look, and was more or less suspicious in his heart, "What does that gentleman want?" ”

Su Qin stood up and said slowly, "This is the second treasure that a certain person has dedicated to the king. As he spoke, he bowed very solemnly, "The position of the prime minister of the Qi country!" ”
