Xiong Jingzhi's question made Xiang Yan speechless, and when he gave the axe, he had already said very clearly, that is, to rescue Zhao Guo. The premise of 'will be outside, the king's order is not subject to it' is that the later king's order must not violate the previous Taimiao's order, how to judge whether the king's order is consistent with the word's order, that is, the power of the leading general.

The order to rescue Zhao was very clear, that is, to stop the Qin army from continuing to attack Zhao and destroy Zhao, not to unite the three armies of Zhao and Qin to fight a decisive battle in Gongyi. This is what the Taimiao Temple said about the axe, and the decision of the Zheng Dynasty was also decided in this way, and it was also agreed with the Qi State. Qi people are wise and exaggerate their own forces to intimidate the Qin State, and then the Qin State withdraws, and Xiang Yan can't fight if he wants to.

"To fight or not to fight, this is my victory." Seeing that Xiang Yan was displeased, King Wei interjected and came up to the round.

"Even what the king says, this is my victory." The Ming Hall was originally silent, and the Qi people and Wei people were worried that Xiong Jing ordered the army to go north to attack Qin, and at this time, seeing Xiong Jing's opposition, the relieved people immediately echoed the King of Wei.

Xiang Yan looked at Xiong Jing, he wanted to say more and was covered by the noise of everyone, so he shouted, and the hearts of the entire Mingtang people were immediately shocked and startled. Xiong Jing was also taken aback by Xiang Yan's shout, he never thought that this usually obedient and strict courtier would dare to shout in the Wei State's main bed.

"The king can know that the Zhao people have been killed and injured countless in three years, and the five-foot soldiers have entered the army, and now there are only more than 200,000 soldiers in the whole country, if the Qin State is attacking the Zhao State again, the Zhao State will be difficult to resist." What Xiang Yan saw was not something that Xiong Jing could see. Or maybe Xiong Jing can see it, but for the sake of politics, he has to turn a blind eye.

"Dare to ask King Wei," Xiong Jing did not answer Xiang Yan directly, but asked Wei Zeng, the king of Wei.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Wei Zeng was also taken aback by Xiang Yan's shout, he didn't understand how a courtier could be so bold.

"Can the King of Wei tell each other, how much is the accumulation of corn in the Wei State Cang?" The problem of Xiong Jing is not surprisingly related to the accumulation of millet, and the grain yield per mu in this era is the support of all military operations.

"Insufficient accumulation...... Less than half a year old. Wei Zeng, who answered this question, was a little helpless, it was not that Wei could not accumulate millet, but that Wei's millet was constantly bought by Qi and Chu. This was the fourth year after the Great War, and there were no 40 million millets in the Wei State.

"Dare to ask the general," Xiong Jing looked at Tian Luo, "how much is the Qi country?" ”

Xiong Jing's question was very much in line with Tian Luo's mind, and he got up and saluted: "Qi Guo has accumulated Su for less than half a year. ”

"Oh?" Tian Luo said so little that Xiong Jing was surprised, he remembered that last year there was half a year of corn in Qi State.

"The king doesn't know, since last year, my country's merchants have transported grain to Zhao, more than 10 million stones a year, so the accumulation of millet is less than half a year." Tian Luo pulled out a reason, and said: "If you really fight with the Qin people, you must invite Su to the Chu State for half a year." ”

Xiong Jing didn't pay attention to Tian Luo anymore, he just looked at Xiang Yan: "How did my Chu State Jisu go to the general, I know very well, the battle of Gongyi, the annihilation of the Qin army in a battle, but; However, if the Qin army fights again after the first battle and drags on for more than half a year, what should I do? ”

Among the Three Kingdoms, Chu has the most accumulated millet, more than 70 million stones, which can be eaten for a year and a half if you save it, and if you don't save it, you can only eat it for a year and four months. It's just that there are many people in Qi, and the sum of the corn of the Three Kingdoms is not enough for the people of the Three Kingdoms to eat for a year.

Xiang Yan actually knew the bad reality of the Three Kingdoms, and when he was about to argue, Xiong Jing stopped him again. "And this is the accumulation of the Three Kingdoms, and the Zhao State has run out of food. Last year, the wheat was not planted, and the general thought that what would the Zhao people feed on next year? ”

Xiong Jing's question finally dissipated the last trace of struggle in Xiang Yan's heart. With the presence of Zhao, the four countries can barely be said to be evenly matched with the Qin state, if it is true, of course, the four countries are weaker than the Qin state. With the population of the Qin State, even if it was defeated by Gongyi, it would have recovered after a few years, but if there were too many people in the Zhao State, and there was no Zhao State to carry the Qin State north of the Great River, it would be difficult to maintain the situation in the world by relying on the Three Kingdoms alone.

"Does the king of Chu mean to send grain to Zhao?" Wei Zeng looked at Xiong Jing in disbelief.

"Yes, yes." Xiong Jing nodded naturally, "The four countries are one, saving Zhao is saving yourself." And after the war, there will be a big epidemic, the weather is cold now, the epidemic does not come out, and the Zhao people will have nothing to eat at the turn of spring and summer next year, and there will be a big epidemic. The Three Kingdoms must transport grain from the Great River to Zhao, and the Wei State and the Zhao State will go out of the Three Jin Dynasty together, and they will not be stingy with corn. ”

"This ......" Wei Zeng thought that the Qin State would withdraw from the army and the matter of saving Zhao would be over, but he didn't expect to have to transport grain. Naturally, widows do not spare corn. However, there are many people in Zhao, and even if they do their best, they can't save Zhao. ”

After swallowing Yan, the population of Zhao State was more than 5 million, and the population of 5 million had to eat 7 or 8 million stone corn in a month, not to mention that there was more than half a year from the beginning of spring to the autumn harvest. Wei Zeng felt sorry for the grain of Wei, and all the corn of Wei was transported to Zhao, and it was not enough for Zhao people to eat.

Xiong Jing is worried about transportation, even if each person eats half a stone of millet per month, more than 5 million people will need 2.5 million stone per month, so much corn cannot be transported by the three countries. The result of the failure to transport is that the Zhao people, who did not die in the war, will probably starve to death in the ensuing famine. Thinking of this, Xiong Jing said again: "The millet of the Three Kingdoms is enough for Zhao to eat for half a year, but although the corn is sufficient, how can it be transported?" ”

"The king is too worried." In the middle of the sleep, Lian Yu and the others were shocked in their hearts, and the tears of gratitude couldn't help but fall, but Tian Luo thought it was too much. "The Zhao people may not be hungry, it is not only a great hunger, but it is also half a year. When the millet is harvested in September and October, the great hunger will go away. ”

"Saving Zhao is to fight against Qin for Zhao State. Now that Zhao has resisted Qin for three years, although the Qin army has retreated, if the Zhao people die of the post-war famine, what is the use of saving? Xiong Jing retorted. However, he didn't argue too much with Tian Luo, "This matter should be discussed in the court of the Three Kingdoms as soon as possible." ”

The four countries are increasingly connected, and many things can be communicated and coordinated with each other. Although Xiong Jing was worried about the post-war famine and epidemic in Zhao State, he was just worried, how to transport grain and how to prevent the epidemic, these things had to be resolved through consultation among the four countries.

Xiang Yan no longer asked for troops, and the atmosphere in the Ming Hall was suddenly relaxed. Wei Xi, who was behind Wei Zeng, the king of Wei, whispered a few words in his ear, and Wei Zeng, as the landlord, signaled Xiong Jing to raise his lordship: "The Qin people have retreated, and the Three Kingdoms save Zhao Chengyi." Please drink this knight to your heart's content. ”

"Congratulations to Chu Guo! Congratulations to the King! Wei Zeng, Tian Luo, Lian Yu and others raised their heads.

"Congratulations to Shikoku! For Kanto. Xiong Jing replied very decently, and then drank all the wine in Juezhong.

Wine is always exciting, and at this time, Nule and Youling were also summoned by Wei Xi, and for a while, Zhongle in the Ming Hall sang and danced. South Korea, as well as the Liang of Wei, in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was Zheng Di, the so-called voice of Zheng Wei, and he listened tirelessly. is as serious as Xiang Yan, and when she listens to it, she can't help but beat it with music. After the dance, there were haiyu gnomes on the stage, and these people did not come to dance, but to amuse, and soon they were laughing in the middle of the bed.

The abbot before eating, the food must be happy, there are beauties dancing, and dwarfs amusementing, such days are really beautiful. However, Xiong Jing's mood was different from everyone else. The condition for Qi to send troops was to resume the marriage with Chu, and Yingdu was also willing to save Zhao before the court. So the gift of the Chu State was sent again, and Xiong Jing still had to marry a woman he had never met.

What should a person do when his observance conflicts with his desires? Is it unnecessary to abide by it, or is it unnecessary to want it? This is a question that Xiong Jing has been thinking about for half a month.

Whether it is the Confucian rites and music, the spiritual religion of the Chu state, or other moral laws, the Chu state must implement one of them to standardize and consolidate the thoughts, words and deeds of its subjects. Otherwise, as the state of Chu becomes more and more closely connected with the rest of the world, the religions of other countries and the philosophy of Greece will definitely follow. Then, he found himself trapped, too.

There is no doubt about the importance of etiquette, it is second only to Yong. However, there is a price to be paid for observance, especially when kings and nobles have to pay enough for it. According to the teachings of Taifu Kongqian, there was actually not much difference between a ceremonial king and a fanatical religious believer in later generations. Of course, Xiong Jing could use the power of a king to surpass Kong Qian's courtesy, and he could not marry Qi Nu and Yue Nu regardless of the interests of Chu State, but such thoughts were quickly left behind him.

Is it ridiculous that a modernly educated person should abide by etiquette and accept two arranged marriages? It's ridiculous to think about it in the dead of night. It's just that those who come down from the battlefield will have awe in their hearts, and the best of both worlds in the bourgeois style has long been abandoned. After accepting a moral law, he must abide by it to the end, even if some things do not work out.

"Congratulations to the king of Chu! Congratulations to Chu Guo! King Wei, General Qi, and Zhao envoys all toasted Xiong Jing. No matter how low the alcohol content is, it will be intoxicating if you drink too much.

At this time, the amused dwarf had already gone down, and a woman dressed in a curved robe covering her face suddenly appeared in the center of the Ming Hall. When the music resumed, she sang in a low voice: "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent......"

Singing together, Xiong Jing was like being struck by lightning, and the whole person tensed. What he didn't know was that Wei Xi, who was beside King Wei, was peeping, and he couldn't help but smile when he saw his reaction.

The king of Chu likes that although it is a secret in the Chu State, it is not impossible to find out, and Mi Xuan passed by Daliang back then, and Wei Zeng had seen it with his own eyes in the Xiangbang Ziji Mansion. It is not difficult to find a woman who looks alike, and it is actually not difficult to teach this beautiful woman who has been spread all over the world. What Xiong Jing sees now is the Wei State Mi Xuan who spent three years of hard work in the Wei court.

“…… One look at the city, and then look at the country. Rather than know the city and the country? It's hard to get a beautiful woman! ”

In the music, Wei Guoxuan was whirling and dancing, which amazed everyone's eyes, and even Wei Zeng, the king of Wei, regretted sending this girl away.

"Color!" At the end of the song, Tian Luo burst into tears, if it weren't for the presence of the King of Chu and the King of Wei, he would definitely take the dancing woman into his arms and kiss it recklessly.

Tian Luo's shouting startled Wei Guoxuan, she stood behind Wei Zeng timidly, but her eyes looked at Xiong Jing. Wei Zengqing coughed twice and said, "This is also the daughter of the Wei clan." I have heard that the king of Chu is heroic, so I ask to see it. Xuan'er, don't meet the king of Chu yet. ”
