Chapter 69: Zhang Yi Shiwei

Wei, Han, Zhaoyan, and Zhongshan are the kings of the five kingdoms, and their momentum is huge. To the east you can attack Qi, to the west you can also attack Qin, and to the south you can also press Chu. The three kingdoms of Qi, Qin and Chu, for their own interests, did not want to see the five countries walking together. The State of Qi sent troops to teach Zhongshan a lesson, but because Tian was seriously ill with Qi, the matter of the expedition was not completed. The state of Wei was the place where the alliance was initiated. Qin and Chu vented all the dissatisfaction in their hearts towards Wei. In the face of the blows of the two countries, the Wei State was unable to parry, lost its troops and lost its cities and land.

Facing the documents on the desk, Wei Wangpo also had a headache. It was the Five Kingdoms that joined together, and it was the Wei State that was beaten.

Qin and Chu taught Wei a lesson by force, so they threw an olive branch. Qin's condition was for Zhang Yi to become the minister of Wei. As long as Wei Poppy did not accept this condition, Qin continued to attack Wei. The condition of the state of Chu is to let the proton prince of the state of Wei in the land of Chu return to the state of Wei. The king of Wei must agree, and a hundred years later, he will be in Gongzi Gao. The conditions offered by Qin and Chu were all to interfere in the national affairs of Wei. If the king of Wei agreed, the country would fall into the hands of others, and if he did not agree, it would be difficult to stop the war.

Wei Poppy is ten years younger, and he will never bow his head and give in. Now, he is old and has poor energy. For the great cause of Wei, he could only endure humiliation and was forced to agree to the conditions of Qin and Chu.

Hui Xiang said sadly: "The conditions of Qin and Chu are all loss of power and humiliation of the country. Your Majesty, my country will never agree. ”

Wei Poppy held his forehead and closed his eyes, "The soldiers of Qin and Chu are in their prime, and there is no way for them to make this decision." Lose power and humiliate the country, do you think the widow is willing? ”

Hui Xiang's eyes showed an unyielding will, "We would rather die than bow to Qin and Chu." If the king bows his head, the arrogance of you and Wei will be gone. ”

"The Wei State is already riddled with holes." Wei Poppy, his words were sad and very helpless, "The arrogance of the widow has long been lost." Hye-sang, you tell the widow what to do. ”

"Your Majesty, the rhinoceros heads the five kingdoms and the kings will join forces to jointly crusade against the princes." Hui Xiang continued: "Let's hold on for a little longer. Han Yan, Zhao Zhongshan, and the four countries will definitely send troops to support, and the national crisis can be solved. Your Majesty, we can't agree to the conditions of Qin and Chu. ”

Wei Poppy questioned, "South Korea is too busy to take care of itself. Yan, Zhao, Zhongshan, and the Three Kingdoms will send troops to support our country. ”

Hui Xiang arched his hand and said: "The five countries will join forces and conclude an alliance." The Covenant clearly states that no one of the five nations will be attacked by another nation. The other four countries will also declare war on him. The five countries advance and retreat together and live and die together. ”

Wei Poppy looked at him in a daze and sighed: "Huizi, you are a smart and wise person. How can you believe that a piece of paper can bind the other four countries. ”

"A gentleman promises a thousand gold." Hui Xiang said: "If Siguoan dares to break the covenant, it will only make other countries make fun of it. The state of Qi attacked the state of Zhongshan. Didn't Yan and Zhao give strong support to Zhongshan? The king, Yan and Zhao will also send troops to aid our country and jointly deal with Qin and Chu. Once, the momentum of the five countries came together. Qin Chu'an dared to be too presumptuous. ”

Wei Pop gritted his teeth and decided to hold on for a few days to resist Qin Chu's strong offensive.

Tian Xu said anxiously: "Huixiang, do you want the country to die in the hands of the king?" ”

Under the leadership of Wei Poppy, it is not easy for Wei to survive so far. However, the Wei state still survived. Occasionally, the princes of Yang Wei were used by force to prove their existence. In the second half of Wei Pop's life, there was no great cause to sing and cry about, but humiliation. Wei Poppy said that it didn't matter if he was humiliated a little more. As long as Wei is still there. The Wei State has the foundation of hegemony, and once it eases up, it can still restore the glory of its ancestors.

Humiliation today will be repaid tomorrow.

However, Wei Poppy saw hope again and again, and disappointed him again and again. Now that he is getting old, the Wei State is also like him. After a long time, Wei Poppy did not expect that Wei would one day, under his leadership, regain the hegemony of his ancestors. But please, the country will not die at his hands. If the country is still there, the home is still there. If the kingdom is gone, the house will be ruined. As the king of Wei, what he can do is to preserve the inheritance for his descendants. In the future, if there are talented people among the descendants, the Wei State can also reorganize the rivers and mountains, and the princes of Yang Wei.

Tian Xu's words stabbed Wei Poppy's sensitive nerves. The country must not die at the hands of others.

"Huixiang, don't say it, the widow has made up his mind. Promised, the conditions of the State of Qin and the State of Chu. Wei Poppy, with tears in his eyes, said, "The widow is old." But not confused. Both Qin and Chu want to get their hands on the rivers and mountains of our Wei State. If there are few people, let them fight against each other. ”

Wei Poppy's idea was to let Qin and Chu compete for their interests in Wei. The two countries of Qin and Chu are like two tigers. One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and the two countries of Qin and Chu will definitely fight to the death. In this way, Wei State can quietly develop and strengthen its strength. One day, I will be able to be ashamed.

Hui Xiang arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, what are you going to do with the prince?" ”

"Only grievances." Wei Pop said sadly: "The position of the crown prince is empty for the time being. ”

Tian Xu arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yi of the Qin State, how do we deal with it." ”

"Huixiang, you go to the post house for the widow and bring Zhang Yi into the palace."

"Your Majesty, Zhang Yi is a Wei person, and he will do everything to harm his mother country." Hui Xiang said coldly: "Such a villain, the king is willing to leave his arrogance to see him." The minister has nothing, and he still has a little backbone. The king's orders cannot be carried out by the ministers. ”

"Bold." Tian Xu shouted: "Huixiang, do you dare not listen to the king's order? ”

Hui Xiang shouted: "Presumptuous." There's no room for you to run rampant here. ”

Tian Xu, facing Wei Pop, said, "Your Majesty, Hui Xiang..."

"You don't have to say a word." Wei Poppy turned his eyes to Hui Xiang, "Hui Xiang, you really want to disobey the widow's will." ”

Hui Xiang, standing proudly, arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister retires." ”

Hye-sang openly disobeyed orders. Wei Poppy's beard trembled with anger, "Huixiang, you..."

Hui Xiang shook his sleeves and left the Wei Palace.

Tian Xu looked at Wei Xiang's back and scolded: "Hui Xiang, you don't know Wang En, you are pampered and arrogant. Teach him well, O king. ”

Wei Poppy, who was emotionally stable, said, "Tian Xu, you go to greet Zhang Yi for the widow." ”

Tian Xu took a step back and arched his hand: "No." ”

Hui Xiang left the Wei Palace and did not go home, but went directly to Gongsun Yan's mansion.

Gongsun Yan saw that his face was gloomy and angry, and asked, "Huixiang, you came specifically to me for a drink." ”

Megumi poured glass after glass of wine down his throat. He didn't want to think about anything, he just wanted to get drunk. Gongsun Yan, seeing that he was drinking too quickly and would hurt his body, immediately took the wine jar in his arms and said with a smile: "Huixiang, you are so drunk that you are easy to get drunk." ”

In Hui Xiang's eyes, there were faint tears, "Today, the old man wants to get drunk." ”

Gongsun Yan had never seen Hui Xiang so out of shape, handed him the wine jar, and said arrogantly: "Okay." I'll drink with you today. ”

Hui Xiang drank a few more glasses and asked, "Doctor Shang, why don't you ask me why you want to buy drunk." ”

Gongsun Yan said with a smile: "Hui Xiang doesn't want to say it, so why should I ask." ”

Hui Xiang got up and faced the Wei Palace, bowed, and his eyes were full of sadness, "Wei Guo, it's over." ”

Gongsun Yan exclaimed: "Huixiang, where are you saying this." ”

Hui Xiang turned around, looked at Gongsun Yan with a lonely expression, and his voice was sad and sad, "Today, the king recruited me into the palace." The king agreed to the conditions of Qin and Chu. The king was arrogant and gone. Doctor, you know what? Your Majesty, let me go and greet villains like Zhang Yi. Wei Guo! My Wei State. When did you fall to such a point? Old man, what will I do to save you. ”

A thunderclap followed, followed by a torrential downpour.

"Oh God! Do you hear me crying? Hui Xiang looked at him and said, "Doctor, why aren't you angry?" ”

Gongsun Yan sighed: "The king's move is a last resort. ”

"As a last resort." Hui Xiang laughed wildly: "The Wei State is in decline, and it will not lose face. Shame on the country! Shame on the country! ”

Keiko devoted his life to the Wei State, hoping that one day, he would regain the hegemony of the Wei State. However, each of his efforts failed. However, he will not give up his country either. The king agreed to the terms of Chu and Qin, and Wei suffered a great national humiliation. Hui Shi was really angry. He is unwilling, really unwilling!

Gongsun Yan saw that Hui Xiang was worried, and held up the wine bottle and said indignantly: "Wei Xiang, I toast you." ”

Keiko said bitterly: "The famous family and the Zongheng family have joined forces to govern the country, and the country has ended up like this... Pathetic, pathetic! ”

Zhang Yi left the Qin State and returned to his homeland. The officials of the Wei State heard the wind and came to meet Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi saw that these people were all small minions, and he didn't bother to see them. The King of Wei sent Tian to meet Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi ordered someone to go out and gossip a few words, and then refused to see the guests.

Wei Poppy, seeing that Tian needed to bring Zhang Yi into the palace, asked, "What about Zhang Yiren?" ”

Tian Xu said: "Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent, and he didn't see Zhang Yi. But Zhang Yi sent someone to convey a few words to me. ”

Wei Poppy frowned, "What did he say." ”

"Zhang Yi said that if the king didn't go in person, he wouldn't have stepped into the Wei Palace."

"What? Zhang Yi asked the widow to greet him in person. Wei Poppy, furious, said, "Zhang Yi, do you take yourself too seriously?" ”

"The king is angry." Tian Xu said: "Zhang Yi is a villain. But he has the Qin State behind him. Your Majesty, for the sake of the great cause of the Wei Kingdom, you should deign to him and go and meet him! ”

Wei Poppy sighed: "Okay! The widow is losing face for the Wei State. ”

At noon, Wei Pop personally led the hundred officials to meet Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi saw that the King of Wei came in person, and arched his hand and said: "The minister is a grass people, how can the king deign to come here." ”

"Zhang Yi, in the past few years, you have helped the Qin State deal with the widows. Widows, one by one. Wei Poppy cursed in his heart, but said calmly: "Now you go back to your home country?" In the past, how did you help the Qin State fight the widows. In the future, you will lead my country back in the same way. ”

Zhang Yi arched his hand, "Zhang Yi is the person expelled by the Qin State, how can he help the king to fight the Qin State." ”

Wei Poppy stepped forward and took his hand, and said earnestly: "The Qin State doesn't want you, the Wei State wants you." Zhang Yi, you will show your talent in Wei State! ”

Zhang Yi paused and said: "Zhang Yi was the prime minister of Qin in the past. Today, I came to Wei in despair, thanks to the king's refusal to give up, just give me food. ”

Wei Poppy knew that this was Zhang Yi blatantly asking for an official from himself, "Zhang Yi, you are the prime minister of the Qin State. In the Wei State, the widow can't be shabby anymore. From today onwards, you are the Minister of State of Wei? ”

Zhang Yi arched his hand and said: "Zhang Yi will definitely do his best to contribute to the country." ”

"Okay." Wei Poppy was happy and said, "Zhang Yi, what about you in the future?" ”

Zhang Yi entered the Daliang Palace and participated in the court meeting. Wei Poppy announced in front of hundreds of officials that Zhang Yi would be the prime minister and preside over the state affairs of Wei.

When Wei Ai heard this, he said: "Your Majesty, how can a country have two phases. ”

Many courtiers in the Wei Palace also said: "Your Majesty! Hui Shi devoted his life to serving the country. There is only one phase in the Wei State, and that is Keiko. ”

"Hui Xiang has done his best for the country, please take back the king's life."

"Minister, support Huixiang."

"Ministers, too, support Huixiang."

In the face of the difficulties of the hundreds of officials in the Wei Palace, Zhang Yi's face was calm, and he chose to retreat as advance, "Zhang Yi was born lowly and is a lowly person. How dare you occupy the position of Wei Xiang. Your Majesty, please allow the grass people to retire. ”

Wei Poppy worked with Hui Shi in the same year and had a deep relationship. But he also didn't want to remove Keiko from her post as Xiangguo. However, Zhang Yi forced Wei Poppy to make a decision by leaving. Wei Poppy was forced by the current situation, and he had no choice but to grieve Keiko.

Wei Poppy hurriedly said, "Zhang Yi, you're leaving." Widowed, what to do. ”

Zhang Yi looked around at everyone and said, "Your Majesty, the Wei Palace can't keep me." I'd better go! ”
