A beautiful pottery bowl crossed a beautiful curve in the air, and landed gracefully on the floor tiles of the main hall, just like several pottery objects before it, shattered to bones, I am afraid that I will never be able to find every part of my body again. No one can count, this is the first few objects that Tian Bibi has broken, and I am afraid that the next one will soon suffer the same fate.

However, as if he was tired, he sat on the top of the hall without any image, looking at the open door, looking at the sky beyond the gate, and a sense of powerlessness arose.

A eunuch walked to the door of the main hall, stretched his head inside, and saw Tian Biqi sitting there without any image, neither entering nor leaving. When he was hesitating, he was called in by Tian Bibi. The eunuch could only enter the hall with a hard head, find a place where he could put his feet, and meet Tian Piyi. "King, Su Qin asks to see you."

"Why is he here?" Tian Bibi asked. In fact, although he was deeply impressed by Su Qin, the scene when Su Qin was able to persuade Tian Ying to leave also made him very frightened. It is conceivable that the entire Qi country has no way to be a behemoth, Su Qin just said a few words, and let him leave obediently. Even if this shows that he is capable, it also makes people shudder. This is also the reason why Tian Bibi has never dared to use him too much.

"Lord Shangqing, it must be from Zhao Guo's business." The eunuch said cautiously.

"Hehe, it's another one to persuade the widow." Tian Bibi said with a smile, obviously, he had heard enough of some words recently, such as persuading him to withdraw his troops from Yan State, such as persuading him to make peace with Yan State, and so on. These people seem to be loyal, but in their bones, they can't help but complain a little about him. If he hadn't insisted on going his own way, Qi Guo would not have fallen into such a quagmire and couldn't pull it out.

"Well, let him come up. One more is not more, one less is not less, and the widow is next. ”

"Whoa." The eunuch broke out in a cold sweat as he retreated, thinking that he would leave this place of right and wrong quickly, while Tian Piqi had not yet affected the innocent.

When Su Qin came in, he was also surprised by the mess in front of him, but he didn't expect that Zhao Guo's dispatch of troops would bring such a big stimulus to Tian Biyi. He saluted respectfully, looked at Tian Bibi, who had no image, and couldn't help but say: "As the king of a country, the king is sitting on the floor so without an image, if it is spread out, he will definitely think that my Qi country has fallen into the land, and it is very bad for the morale of the army." ”

"Morale of the military? Hehe. Tian Bibi shook his head and sneered twice, "Shangqing is here, but is there something?" ”

Su Qin took out the bamboo slip in his sleeve, and saw that there were no eunuchs, so he could only hand it to Tian Biqi himself, "General Kuang Zhang came to report that the Zhao army is temporarily stationed in Xiadu, according to the news from Xizuo, I am afraid that there is no intention of attacking for the time being." ”

Tian Biqi took a look at the bamboo slips, looked at them carefully, threw the bamboo slips on a few cases casually, put his hands behind his back, turned his back to Su Qin, and asked lightly: "Lord Shangqing thinks that Zhao Guoren is playing with this idea?" ”

"Your Majesty thinks that there must be some disagreement between Zhao Jun and Yan Jun." Su Qin replied respectfully.

"Oh? For example? ”

"The city quilt and the orchestra pit."

Tian Bibi walked down the steps with his hands behind his back, slowly paced to Su Qin's side, and said, "Lord Shangqing, you might as well speak up." ”

"Whoa." Su Qin sorted out his thoughts and continued: "The return of the prince to the country this time is said to have been promised by King Zhao himself. Why is Zhao Guo so keen on this? From the courtier's point of view, it is nothing more than two things, one is that the prince's position is reinstated, then Yan State will definitely ally with Zhao State in the future, and Zhao State will have peace of mind on its northern border. You can even unite with the Yan State and put pressure on our Qi State. Now, the state of Chu and my country have broken off diplomatic relations, and the living environment of the state of Qi is really worrying, and with the alliance of Yan and Zhao, it may not be impossible to conspire with the state of Qi. ”

"Hmm." Tian Bibi nodded, "It's really worrying." ”

"Second, Zhao Guo is fighting hard, and his intention is very obvious, that is, Zhongshan. Of course, Zhongshan is not a fool, at this moment, the ministers are probably already planning to find reinforcements. It is impossible for the Qin State, South Korea is eager to follow the Zhao State, the Wei State is trembling, and in recent years, the land has been defeated one after another, and the land is shrinking day by day, and it is easy not to provoke the Zhao State; The State of Chu and the State of Zhao had just formed an alliance, and it was impossible to turn their faces. Pick and choose, Zhongshan can only find our Qi country. ”

"Does the king think we should meddle in this matter?"

Tian Bibi just wanted to answer, but fell into deep thought. He knew that if this question could be answered so easily, Su Qin would not waste time here. He went through all the parties involved in this matter, and after thinking carefully for a long time, he sighed, "It seems that you should let Zhao Guo do it." ”

"Yes, the king has a point." Su Qin said.

"If we interfere with Zhao Guo's destruction of Zhongshan, it is equivalent to telling everyone that it is also illegal for Qi to destroy Yan State. What's more, Zhongshan is a foreign race, and Yan is the clan state of Zhou Tianzi, which is more important and which is more important, at a glance. Why didn't Zhao lead his troops to fight our Qi army for a long time? It should depend on my attitude towards Qi Guo. If Qi opposes Zhao's attack on Zhongshan, then Zhao can justifiably attack Kuangzhang and them in the name of helping Yan recover the country; If we keep silent and let Zhao attack Zhongshan smoothly, Zhao will continue to pretend in Yan and let us garrison in Yandi. Take what you need, tacitly, Shangqing, that's what you mean. ”

"That's true. The king is wise. ”

"Hehe, if the widow was wise, he would not be led by Zhao Guo's nose, and only now did he think clearly, Zhao Guo's seemingly simple move has such a deep meaning." Tian Biyi's mood is finally better, just like playing chess, what I am most afraid of is that you don't know what your opponent wants to do, and knowing yourself and not knowing the other is also a taboo for soldiers. Now that you can guess a few points, you can think about what to do. He walked back to his case and sat down on his knees.

"Then according to Shangqing's opinion, how should my Qi country respond?"

"Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."

"Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight?" Tian Biqi was a little puzzled.

"It is said that a man went to stab a tiger and saw two tigers hunting a cow, and he was about to go down to assassinate the tiger, but he was dragged by another man. The man said, "If you go down now, you will kill yourself." Let's wait and see, after the two tigers eat this cow, they will definitely have to fight again, and when the time comes, there will be only one tiger left, wouldn't it be easier to hunt? ”

"King, at this moment, it seems that the matter of Yan and Qi is the matter of Yan and Qi, but here, there is also a Zhao country. Yan Zhao seems to be an alliance and unbreakable, but in fact, they do each have their own masters. Zhao Guo will not and cannot swallow Yan Guo alone, he can only control Yan Guo and become a puppet of Zhao State; And Yan Guo naturally went to the goal of recovering the country, and he would not be willing to become a puppet of Zhao State. Since the other party is not single-minded, we have the right to give them some time, and by the way, provoke the relationship between the two. Whether it is the victory of King Yan or the victory of Zhao in the end, the two countries will be suspicious, and at that time, it will also be the best time for my Qi State to send troops. ”

"Hmm." Tian Bi couldn't help nodding, indeed, according to Su Qin's meaning, it seems that the operability is very large. "Then, the matter of Zhongshan ......"

"Great King, although Zhongshan can contain Yan and Zhao, but in the current situation, Yan Guo's vitality is greatly damaged, and I am afraid that it will not be able to compete with Qi and Zhao in a short period of time. Zhao Guo is dominant, and it has become settled, at least in the Three Jin Dynasty, only Zhao Guo has the confidence to speak. Although Zhongshan can balance the relationship between the three countries, it is just that since he became king, he has been disobedient to my Qi country, and he has rarely been respectful. What's more, at this time, Zhongshan is only relying on half of the country to survive, and it is not easy to rise again. Zhongshan involved the core interests of the Zhao State, and the Zhao army raised troops to the north three times, which shows the firmness of its will. In that case, why don't you be a favor. It's good to watch from the sidelines. ”

"Zhao's attack on Zhongshan can not only help us disperse the grievances of other princes, but also sell Zhao a favor. And a powerful Zhao State with no ambition for the Heji Plain can also help us monitor the Yan State, which is not a good thing for us, but it is not bad. ”

"Well, this matter, the widow still has to think about it." Tian Bibi said, to put it bluntly, he still can't be completely relieved about Su Qin. "It's just that this matter of provoking Yan and Zhao still has to take a lot of thought."

Su Qin didn't answer this time. The previous questions were all asked by Tian Biyi, and he answered them. At this moment, since Tian Biqi didn't ask, he didn't interject. It's like when he's sleeping, always dressed and ready to leave. Although the power of the flying bear and the meticulous work of Zhao Guo in the royal city can protect him, he still can't sleep peacefully. When he chose to embark on this path, he chose this kind of life of restless sleep.

Tian Bibi was very satisfied with Su Qin's attitude, which made him a little satisfied with Su Qin, at least until now, although Su Qin's actions were suspicious, they did not harm the interests of Qi State, and the interests of Qi State were taken first everywhere, so that he was slowly washing away his suspicions.

"What does Shangqing think?"

"King, you don't need to go through a lot of trouble to break the relationship between Yan and Zhao, you only need to bury a chess piece between Zhao and Yan in Xiadu, and you can successfully provoke the relationship between the two."

"Orchestra pit and city quilt." Tian Bibi said.

"Not bad. The two are the most direct representatives of the relationship between the two countries, as long as they can provoke the relationship between the two of them, then it will be difficult for the mediator to make a choice. When the contradiction cannot be alleviated, it is inevitable to sacrifice one person to satisfy the other. The king might as well prophesy that the prince will choose to sacrifice whom? ”

"Hehe, Shangqing is taking a test for widows?" Tian Bibi said with a smile, "If this Gongzi's desire to restore the country is very strong, then he will definitely sacrifice the city quilt and stand on the side of the music pool, if the Gongzi is purely hoping to defeat the Qi army, he will stand on the side of the city quilt." Well, in this case, the widow would have preferred the second step. It's best to be able to fall out with Zhao Guo completely, although it's impossible. ”

"Yes, as long as Gongzi wants to become the new king of Yan Kingdom, he must listen to the words of the orchestra pool, and the city has been arrogant recently, and all the king has to do is add another handful of firewood."

"Is there a candidate in Shangqing's heart?"

When Su Qin heard this, he immediately bowed his head to the end and gave a big salute to Tian Biyi. Seeing that Su Qin suddenly came like this, Tian Bibi thought to himself that this person should not be going to do this matter in person. But soon, I heard Su Qin say: "Your Majesty recommends a person, but this person is suffering from a serious crime, and the crime is unforgivable." He also asked the king to have mercy on his talent and let him make meritorious contributions. If this person succeeds, then a chess piece can also be placed next to Gongzi's position. The secret of the Yan Kingdom will no longer be a secret to the Qi Kingdom. ”

Tian Bibi just wanted to ask who it was, but after thinking about it, he suddenly laughed: "It turns out that Shangqing came here today, and it is false to offer advice, but it is true to rescue your brother!" ”

Su Qin kowtowed again: "Your Majesty is ashamed." ”

Tian Bibi waved his hand. Yes, among the cronies of Zizhi who were escorted from Yan State this time, there was also Su Dai. It's just that he has always been on the edge, and Tian Biqi felt that he was not the core person, so he let him live and was imprisoned. He only later found out that this person was Su Qin's brother. But Su Qin never pleaded with him, nor did he say anything about it, so he didn't ask again.

I didn't expect Su Qin to go around in such a big circle today, and the purpose was to save Su Dai. It seems that he is not completely emotionless.

"If Su Dai can really do this, not only will the widow not punish him, but he will also reward him, but..."Tian Biqi hesitated for a while, "Can he really take on this matter?" Isn't that a small matter? What's more, he was also a subordinate of the son. ”

"Your Majesty, I am willing to guarantee this matter with my life!"

Tian Bibi looked at Su Qin's resolute expression, and finally made up his mind.

"Accurate!"
