The time for the meeting was soon up, and the prince and princess stayed behind in Yiling, fearing that an emergency would occur during the meeting, Xiang Yu Hualong took Chen Sheng back to Chengluoyi, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty. This time, Xiang Yu brought 40,000 cavalry, plus King Zhou and more than 10,000 cavalry, adding up to more than 50,000 cavalry.

Hua Long went to see King Zhou overnight, and when King Zhou saw Hua Long, he took his hand and said, "Hua Aiqing, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I want to die a widow." ”

Hua Long said: "King Zhou, what do you want me to do, do you want me and Xiang Yu to come over to help you support the façade, so that you can be majestic in this meeting." ”

King Zhou said: "Hey, this is this consciousness, every time I met with the kings before, the widow couldn't raise his head, and he didn't dare to speak loudly. ”

Hua Long said: "Now no one dares to speak loudly to you, although we have the least troops, but we have played with momentum, and others have some scruples." ”

King Zhou said: "Yes, the widow is much better now, why didn't my pair of children come together?" ”

Hua Long said: "I was about to explain to you that I left the prince in Yiling because I was afraid that sometimes other countries would attack you. The prince is outside, even if other countries control you, it won't play a big role, so your side is safer, and we don't have to worry about fighting. ”

King Zhou said: "This widow understands. ”

Hua Long said: "This meeting should bring Yan Rate, he is honest and strategic. ”

King Zhou said: "Don't worry, the widow knows it." ”

Hua Long chatted with King Zhou for a while and went back.

The day of the nine-nation talks came, and the troops of the nine countries were stationed 20 miles away from the capital of the Zhou Dynasty. The three kingdoms of Chu, Qi, and Jin each brought 150,000 horses and horses; Qin, Yue, and Wei, each of which brought 100,000 horses; Lu and Song, each with 80,000 horses; Only King Zhou's army had the smallest number of troops, with Xiang Yu's of more than 50,000.

On the day of the talks, the monarchs of various countries brought 2,000 people into the Taimiao of the Zhou Dynasty, and the meeting was presided over by the king of Zhou. Originally, it was not the turn of King Zhou, but the countries were fighting for each other, and there was no choice but to give it to King Zhou, who was still the nominal co-owner after all.

King Zhou said: "The Zhou Dynasty since the Ping King Dongqian, the whole world of princes disputes, civil strife continued, and now the situation of the Zhou Dynasty and the eight vassal states has been formed. For the sake of the well-being of the people of the world, the vassal states must stop fighting, and the Zhou Dynasty led the eight vassal states to hold talks on peaceful coexistence here, and now the kings are invited to put forward reasonable suggestions. ”

The kings symbolically said something innocuous for a morning, and finally summed it up as follows:

1. Kill unfilial people, don't change the established prince, and don't take concubines as wives.

2. Respect the virtuous and virtuous, cultivate talents, and commend virtuous people.

3. Respect the old and love the young, and do not forget the guests and passengers.

Fourth, a scholar cannot be an official in the world, and an official should not hold multiple positions; Scholars must be able to obtain capable people, and they must not kill doctors arbitrarily.

Fifth, do not deliberately build dikes to exclusively use water resources, and do not prevent people from other countries from purchasing grain.

6. All those who have been allied with us, after the alliance, shall be reconciled, and the wars between the nations shall cease to be destroyed, and if there is any violation, they may be defeated together. ”

Xiang Yu and Hualong both thought that the content of this meeting was really interesting.

In the afternoon, the talks began, and King Zhou asked, "I wonder if the kings still have any objections to the content of the talks?" ”

The kings all stated: "The content of the talks is very good, and there is no objection. ”

King Zhou said: "The documents here have been prepared, since there is no objection, please sign and seal them." ”

After the princes and kings signed and sealed.

King Jin suddenly spoke: "This king believes that in this meeting, all parties have reached a consensus, and they should elect a leader to preside over the overall situation. ”

King Qi also said: "Someone must preside over the overall situation." ”

The king of Chu said: "Then everyone sitting here tell me, how should you choose?" ”

Hua Long thought: The climax of the meeting has only begun now, and these three countries are the most powerful, and they all want to be the leaders of the alliance.

The other princes and kings were too lazy to speak, and they all thought: Anyway, it won't fall on your head, and it will be best to fight with your family.

King Qin said: "You can get a few alliance leader candidates first, vote, or compare forces, who is powerful and who is in charge." ”

King Yue said: "Voting is definitely not good, if you vote, everyone signs up, and they all vote for themselves, each person gets one vote, and the result is not elected." ”

It seems that King Qin and King Yue both knew that they had no drama and deliberately provoked trouble.

The king of Chu said: "Compared with the forces, there can't be a few direct wars." King Chu thought: You want to provoke our civil war, I don't want to be fooled.

King Qin said: "This can be signed up first, and after the alliance leader candidates come out, several candidates will discuss it themselves." ”

King Jin said: "We should settle this matter peacefully, and don't engage in armed fighting, so that the meaning of this meeting will be lost."

This meeting was requested by Chu and Jin, and the two countries of Chu and Jin should have reached some kind of agreement, neither side wanted to settle it by force, so that the state of Qi was below.

Yan Shu suddenly spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, King Zhou is still sitting here, and you still want to choose the leader of the alliance, where do you want to put King Zhou." ”

King Jin quibbled and said: "Doctor Yan, King Zhou is the Son of Heaven, many things should not trouble him, we elect a person in charge among several vassal states, and then report the results to King Zhou, it is also for the sake of King Zhou." ”

The king of Chu also said: "The king of Zhou should sit in the court, and let us do the work." ”

King Qin said: "You should choose an alliance leader, and if the method of selection is unreasonable, King Zhou can come forward again." ”

When the kings heard this, they all said, "King Qin is right, we all agree to elect the leader of the alliance, but it must be reasonable." ”

Yan Shu saw that all the kings supported him, and it was difficult to speak for a while.

The king of Chu said: "Since all the kings have no objections, if you want to run for the leader of the alliance, sign up first." This king was the first to report it. ”

The king of Qi said, "This king also participates." ”

King Jin said: "This king also signed up." ”

King Qin thought: It's useless for me to report it, just don't offend anyone, just do something to fan the flames.

King Yue knew that his strength was not enough, and the other three kingdoms of Wei, Lu, and Song also watched the excitement.

Suddenly, Xiang Yu spoke: "I also want to be the leader of the alliance, I sign up." ”

The kings were shocked when they heard this, and the kings of Chu and Jin both said, "This is a matter between princes and kings, how are you qualified to participate?" ”

Yan Shu said: "General Xiang is qualified, General Xiang has already been canonized as a king by King Zhou, and his title is 'Overlord'. ”

King Zhou also pushed along the donkey and said: "Yes, the widow has canonized Xiang Yu as 'overlord' a few days ago, and the overlord is definitely qualified to participate." ”

King Qi knew Xiang Yu's strength, and just now he was worried that Chu and Jin would collude and he would be at a disadvantage, and now that Xiang Yu is involved, he will definitely not stand on the side of Chu and Jin, and he also helped: "Since King Zhou has canonized General Xiang as the overlord, the overlord is qualified to participate." ”

Both the King of Qin and the King of Yue said, "The Overlord is eligible to participate. "I all think: I'm worried that no one is stirring up the situation.

King Wei had suffered Xiang Yu's loss, but he didn't dare to object, and he couldn't find a reason to be right. In fact, the three kingdoms of Wei, Lu, and Song didn't want Xiang Yu to participate, they all bordered the Zhou Dynasty, Xiang Yu destroyed Zheng Guo this time, and several families were worried about when Xiang Yu would attack them again.
