Qu Yuan Qi, which made Prince Chu's whole person feel a lot better. Thinking that he would be able to return to the country soon, Prince Chu was in a good mood and drank and drunk alone. Three days later, a man walked briskly and saluted, "Prince, there are a lot of people outside. ”

Prince Chu was a little drunk and asked, "Who is here?" ”

The man slurred and said, "The guards of the Qi Kingdom." ”

"What did you say?" The wine bottle in the hand of Prince Chu fell to the ground.

"The guards of the Qi State came to welcome the prince into the palace."

"They're not here to kill me, are they?" Prince Chu was confused, and hurriedly said, "Go and inform Qu Yuan." ”

The man hurried away.

The guards of the Qi State broke in and shouted, "Prince Chu will come with us." ”

Prince Chu asked blankly, "Where are you taking me?" King Qi wants to kill me? ”

"King Qi won't kill you." As soon as the words fell, the guards vacated a large avenue and saluted: "Qi Xiang." ”

Qi Xiang Tianwen walked in, saw Prince Chu sitting on the ground, and asked, "Why is the prince sitting on the ground." ”

Prince Chu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied, "Drinking and making mistakes." ”

"Master Ziyun, it's better to be happy alone than to be happy." Qi Xiang stepped forward and said, "Prince Chu, follow me into the palace." My king has prepared fine wine, and is waiting for you. ”

Prince Chu questioned, "King Qi invited me to drink?" ”

"My king is in a happy mood, please drink the prince." Qi Xiang smiled: "The prince won't be unappreciative!" ”

Prince Chu hurriedly said: "King Qi invited me to drink, how dare I not go." ”

"Prince Chu can't walk. Come, take him into the palace. After Qi Xiang finished speaking, he walked out of the house.

King Qi watched the singing and dancing on one side and drank fine wine on the other. At this time, Tian Wen walked in, bowed down and said, "Minister, participate in the king." ”

King Qi put down the wine bottle and asked, "Did the Prince of Chu bring it?" ”

Tian Wen high-fived, and the prince of Chu walked in, saluted, and said, "Foreign minister, participate in the king of Qi." ”

"Prince Chu doesn't have to be polite." King Qi smiled: "You are in the country of Qi, and you can live happily." ”

Prince Chu stabilized his mind and said: "Thanks to the care of King Qi, everything is fine in the Qi country." ”

King Qi raised his hand and said, "Sit down!" ”

The prince of Chu returned the salute and said, "Thank you, King Qi." ”

King Qi picked up a bottle of wine and asked, "Prince Chu, please." ”

The prince of Chu raised the bottle and replied, "King Qi, please." ”

King Qi put down the wine bottle and asked, "Prince Chu, is the Qi wine delicious, or is the Chu wine still drinking?" ”

The prince of Chu replied: "Qi wine and Chu wine are different. ”

King Qi asked with a calm face: "Does the prince of Chu like Chu wine, or Qi wine?" ”

The prince of Chu replied in a trembling voice: "I am from Chu, so I naturally like Chu wine." ”

Seeing that the other party was trembling, King Qi laughed and said, "Does the prince think that my Qi wine is not good and wants to return to China?" ”

Prince Chu stabilized his mind and replied lightly: "Even if I want to return to the country, without the consent of King Qi, I can only think about it at most." ”

"If you don't want to return to the country, stay in the country of Qi." King Qi poured himself a bottle of wine again, and said with a smile: "If you want to return to the country, the widow will not stop you." ”

Prince Chu pondered for a long time and asked, "What does King Qi mean by this?" ”

King Qi said lightly: "Prince Chu is a smart man, do you have to tell the truth?" ”

Qi Xiang smiled: "Prince Chu is not happy to thank my king for his kindness. ”

Prince Chu hurriedly said, "Thank you, King Qi." ”

"Haha." Seeing that the prince of Chu was surrendering at his feet, the king of Qi smiled and said, "The prince of Chu wants to return to the country, and the widow will let you go back." What will happen when the prince of Chu returns to the country. ”

The prince of Chu said solemnly: "Qi and Chu are good friends and will never surrender." ”

King Qi snorted coldly: "The State of Chu is a defeated general under the State of Qi. The prince of Chu believed that the state of Chu was qualified to be friendly with the state of Qi. ”

Prince Chu clenched his fists and asked in a soft tone, "What does King Qi mean by this." ”

The king of Qi threatened: "The widow wants the state of Chu to submit to the state of Qi and be my minister of the south forever." ”

"Hahahaha." The Prince of Chu laughed and said, "The State of Qi and the State of Chu have been in the world for hundreds of years. Today, the state of Chu is in decline, and it will not become a minister of the south of the state of Qi. ”

King Qi shouted angrily: "The prince of Chu is not afraid of angering the widow, and the widow will kill you if he is unhappy." ”

"When a man dies in the end, how can he live in humiliation for the sake of life. I am in the country of Qi, just like fish and meat, to be slaughtered. If the king of Qi wants to kill me, it will be as easy as a hand. The prince of Chu had a tough attitude and said domineeringly: "You want me to surrender to the Qi State and be a minister of the West." I'd rather die. ”

"This is my big Chu man." As soon as the words fell, Qu Yuan walked into the hall in high spirits.

One person shouted: "Qu Yuan, this is the Qi country, how can you be presumptuous." ”

Qu Yuan said calmly: "Three days have passed, and I have come to verify King Qi's reply." ”

King Qi said coldly: "What if the widow doesn't let the prince of Chu return to the country." ”

Qu Yuan spit out two words, "Go to war." ”

Qi Xiang saw that if the two of them continued to fight, it would be a big deal, and he interjected: "The name of Zuo Situ is like thunder. A gentleman of the Chu State who would rather bend than bend. When I saw it today, it was true. ”

King Qi also said: "Zuo Situ is the country, and he dares to be angry with the king of Chu." See it today, and it lives up to its name. The widow can let the prince of Chu return to the country, but the widow has one condition. ”

Qu Yuan asked, "What conditions?" ”

"When the prince of Chu returns to the country, where will Qi and Chu go?"

"Qi and Chu are good friends, and they will never surrender." Qu Yuan added: "But if you want to insult the national dignity, I will never agree." ”

"Haha." King Qi said with a smile: "The widow just now was just to test the courage of Prince Chu. Even though the prince of Chu is willing to submit to the state of Qi and be the minister of the west of the state of Qi. The subjects of Chu State would not agree. When the prince of Chu returned to the country in humiliation, he was bound to raise troops to attack Qi Xuesha. Qi and Chu are at war, which is an outcome that neither country wants. ”

Qu Yuan Zhengse said: "The intersection of the two countries should be on the basis of equality. The state of Chu was weakened, but the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse. No matter who wants to take advantage of the fire to rob the Chu State and bully the Chu State. Although the state of Chu is weak, it will defend the honor and dignity that belongs to the state of Chu. ”

When King Qi saw Qu Yuan's words, they were not words of intimidation. Although the king of Chu lost his trust to the princes, the Chu people still made a promise. Especially Qu Yuan, his words must be done, and his deeds must be fruitful. Even with the sword and axe, this person will not frown. King Qi thought to himself: "Qu Yuan is talented, and he has the mind, courage and courage. What a pity! It was not reused by the king of Chu. If Qu Yuan was Qi Chen, how good it would be. ”

Qi Xiang interjected: "Zuo Situ, my king only needs a promise from you. When the prince of Chu returned to the country, Qi and Chu made good friends and did not pay any soldiers. ”

Qu Yuan asked, "Why do you want my promise?" ”

Qi Xiang said sharply: "Chu State is not credible, but Zuo Situ is a gentleman and a gentleman. ”

Qu Yuan smiled: "What if I lose my words." ”

"If Zuo Situ loses his words, no one in the Chu State can be trusted."

"Thanks to Qi Xiang for looking up to me." Qu Yuan swore an oath: "If the prince returns, Qi and Chu will be friends." The state of Chu violated its oath, Yingdu was trampled on, and it was difficult for the country to survive. ”

"Okay." King Qi also said: "There is Zuo Situ's words, the return of the prince of Chu to the country, the widow is approved." ”

The prince of Chu never thought that a Zuo Situ would be able to defeat the thousands of troops and horses of the Chu State. If it weren't for Qu Yuan, how could the King of Qi promise to let him return to the country.

Qi Xiang asked: "I was the prime minister in Qin, and I was deceived by the Qin people. Today, the king of Chu was imprisoned in the state of Qin and was also bullied by the Qin people. If there is revenge, he will be revenged, so he is worthy of being a seven-foot man. If I cut down Qin, what will happen to Zuo Situ. ”

Qu Yuan's eyes were like fire, and his beard was open, "My king is deeply trapped in Qin, which is a great shame. The state of Chu and the state of Qin have a hatred for each other. The national strength of the Chu State is restored, and it will definitely attack Qin Xuesha. If you have revenge and don't take revenge, wouldn't you be a gentleman? ”

"Zuo Situ's words are very much in line with the hearts of widows." King Qi looked at Prince Chu again, and said in a loud voice: "Prince Chu, the widow has given you a chance to attack Qin Xue's shame." ”

The prince of Chu asked, "What does King Qi mean, I don't understand." ”

King Qi said: "The widow is ready to attack Qin Xuesha, do you want to join." ”

The prince of Chu was embarrassed: "I am not the king of Chu, how can I do something to attack." ”

The king of Qi promised: "The widow will send you back, and you will become the king of Chu." ”

"The king of Qi also supports me, and the throne of the king of Chu belongs to me." Prince Chu put this sentence in his heart, looked at Qu Yuan, and did not answer.

When Qu Yuan saw King Qi's words, he was meddling in Chu's internal affairs, and said unhappily: "King Qi, this is my Chu state affairs." Who is the king of Chu must be bothered by the king of Qi. ”

South Korea is no better than the state of Chu. South Korea is weak, King Qi can bully, and he can support Gongzi to blame him as the crown prince of South Korea and interfere in South Korea's internal affairs. If the King of Qi interfered in the internal affairs of Chu, the Chu people would not agree. Qi Xiang saw the words of the king, he was too sharp, and hurriedly said: "The king of Chu is untrustworthy princes, and the people of Chu are untrustworthy." The king of Chu is no longer qualified to be king. When the crown prince returns to the country, once he inherits the throne, don't forget the hatred of the country and the family. ”

The prince of Chu said proudly: "If I am fortunate enough to be supported by my subjects, I will become the king of Chu. I will reorganize the mountains and rivers of Chu and attack Qin Xuesha. ”

"Okay." King Qi said with a smile: "This banquet is a widow to see off the prince." The widow waited for the day when the prince attacked Qin Xue's shame. ”

The next day, the morning sun was rising. Qi Xiang personally sent the Prince of Chu and others out of Linzi City. The convoy of Chu people went farther and farther. One person asked, "Why is Qi Xiang so courteous to Prince Chu." ”

Qi Xiang replied: "If I want to attack Qin, I will establish immortal merits." The help of this person is also needed. ”

"Qi is a big country, a strong country. We attacked Qin, and Han Wei joined, even if there was no Chu State. The day of breaking Qin can be waited. ”

"Definitely." Qi Xiang said: "To attack Qin, it still needs an opportunity. ”

"What timing."

"The State of Qin attacked the State of Chu." Qi Xiang smiled at the corner of his lips and said, "The King of Chu was imprisoned in the Qin State. The king of Qin would be furious when he learned that Chu had set up a new king and could not get the territory he wanted. Qin's attack on Chu will not only further make Qin and Chu hostile, but also exacerbate the turmoil in Chu. When the Chu State is in chaos, it will choose to recuperate and have no time to take care of the war in the Central Plains. At this time, it is the best time for us to attack the Qin State. When Qin sent troops to attack Chu, it was the day when our soldiers sent a letter to Gu to attack Qin. ”

"It's admirable."

"Hahaha." Qi Xiang's smile instantly stiffened, and his eyes were full of murderous aura, "The Qin people insulted me, and I will definitely double it back." ”

In addition to Linzi, the prince of Chu embarked on the road back to the country, and there were many doubts in his heart, and he asked: "Zuo Situ, my father is deeply trapped in Qin, and I am deeply trapped in Qi. The state of Chu has no owner, why didn't the state of Qi take the opportunity to cede the territory of the state of Chu. ”

"The Qin people imprisoned the king and distrusted the princes. The State of Qi wants to blackmail the crown prince and cut the territory of the State of Chu, isn't it as despicable as the State of Qin. When the princes see it, they will cut it down. Qu Yuan said again: "The Qin State broke its trust with the princes, so that the Qi State seized the opportunity and called on the princes to attack Qin. It is better to attack Chu than to attack Qin. ”

"The countries of Qi and Chu are thousands of miles apart. Qi gained no benefit. If the country of Qi gets the land of Huaibei, won't it be a strong country. ”

Qu Yuan said coldly: "If the Qi people want to blackmail the prince to get the land of Huaibei, they will inevitably have a bad relationship with our country. Today we have lost the land of Huaibei, and tomorrow we will raise troops to recover it. The land of Huaibei in the country of Qi is huge, and it will also make the princes jealous. We united Qin and Yan to join the three Jin and Qi. The death of the Qi country, gains and losses, will be staged again. ”

Prince Chu said: "I finally understand what Zuo Situ said, if I am weak, all people will be bullied, the true meaning of these eight words." Qi people, it's just that. ”

"The crown prince will suffer a big loss if he underestimates the Qi country." Qu Yuan said: "My strategy can succeed because defeating Qin is the top priority of the Qi State. We are precisely because we do not put the princes in our eyes. First, the sand was defeated by the princes; Later, he was defeated by Qin three times; Wang Shangcai was imprisoned by the Qin people, and the prince was hostage to Qi and could not return. When the crown prince succeeds to the throne, he must keep his light and live with the people. The prince must not forget the hatred of the country and the family, and join forces to attack Qin to welcome the king's return. ”

"Zuo Situ's words, I always keep in mind." The prince of Chu asked again: "Will the Qi State really go west to conquer the Qin State?" ”

"Yes." Qu Yuan said: "The Qi State will never miss the opportunity to attack Qin Xue and establish the hegemony of Wang Tu. ”

"Qi people, when will the soldiers send a letter to Gu to attack Qin."

"Qi people, waiting for the opportunity." Although Qu Yuan didn't know what this timing was, his eyes were firm: "When the soldiers sent a letter to Gu to attack Qin. ”
