Zhang Yi of the Qin State proposed that the three kingdoms of Qi, Qin and Chu should be divided equally into the world. Sun Yan, the Duke of Wei, proposed to unite the princes and jointly control the Three Kingdoms.

The princes of the Central Plains, who seem to be powerful and powerful, are not many. In addition to Han, Zhao, Wei and Yan, which occupy an area of thousands of miles, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers. The other princes were all small states. Gongsun Yan also understood that small countries do not compete with big countries, which is the law of survival. Whether it is to support the Three Kingdoms of Qi, Qin, and Chu, or to the Three Jins, it doesn't matter who they are attached to, the most important thing is to be able to preserve the country. This is the only way for a small country to survive.

Small countries such as the Wei State, the Lu State, and the Song State will never join the merger and bring about their own destruction. Moreover, forming an alliance is not a trivial matter, and those who are not strong will not only not be beneficial, but will also add a lot of trouble. Gongsun Yan looked at the world and pondered for a long time, the four countries of Han, Zhao, Wei and Yan could be aligned, and their strength was not weak. Once the four countries succeed in joining forces, the momentum will be huge, and Qi Chuqin will also be suppressed.

However, how to connect the four countries that were centrifugal and betrayed Germany, Gongsun Yan pondered for several days before he thought of a way, that is, to respect Yan and Zhao as kings. The first is to elevate the identities of Yan and Zhao, and the other is to shorten the inconvenience caused by the inequality of the four countries.

For vassal states, fame is the most important thing. I think that at the beginning, there was only one king in the Central Plains, and that was King Zhou. The states of Chu and Yue were called kings and were despised by the princes of the Central Plains for hundreds of years. The princes of the Central Plains also fought against the rebels.

The princes of Qi Henggong Jiuhe, with Kuang Tianxia, have great prestige, and they dare not respect the royal road. Jin Wen Gongqin Wang Zhou family, Chengpu defeated Chu, dominated the Central Plains, and did not respect the royal road. After three generations of Wei State, Wei Poppy went to wait for the title of king and convened the princes of the world to meet the alliance. The princes of the world crusade together. Qi Guotian is also in constant war because of Qi walking on the royal road.

Nowadays, the Zhou family is in decline, and the princes of the Central Plains such as Wei, Qi, Qin, and Han are implementing the royal road.

The next day, Gongsun Yan presented his ideas in the form of a document to the king of Wei. After reading the letter, King Wei nodded, feeling happy. Seeing that Wei was on an equal footing with Yan and Zhao in the near future, the officials of the Wei Palace were very dissatisfied and made a statement to impeach Gongsun Yan. Although Wei Poppy is old, he is not confused. The Central Plains is called the king, there are already several countries, Yan Zhao is the king, what does it matter.

Wei Poppy was rarely sober, dictating the dynasty and suppressing the words of hundreds of officials. Join the alliance and jointly check and balance the affairs of the three kingdoms of Qi, Qin and Chu. It was handed over to Gongsun Yan alone. There are many officials in the Wei Palace who are jealous of Gongsun Yan's regain of power, however, when it comes to the safety of the country, Wei Poppy will never indulge them in their reckless behavior.

Han and Wei respected each other as kings and formed an alliance. The strength of Yan and Zhao is also enough to be kings. As for the weakness of the strength of the Song Kingdom, if he is the king, he will definitely make everyone dissatisfied. As a result, Gongsun Yan decided to enlist Wei Hanyan and Zhao Qian to claim the throne together and conclude an alliance. The matter of being called the king is very important, and Gongsun Yan decided to go to Yan Zhao You in person.

Gongsun Yan sent an envoy to Zhao as an envoy to Wei. Gongsun Yan is known as the rhino head, and his reputation spread throughout the Central Plains in the first battle of Hexi. Therefore, Zhao Yong entertained Gongsun Yan with the highest etiquette in the Congtai Palace in Handan. Gongsun Yan was quite shocked, and Zhao Jun came to greet him with the gift of a scholar.

Zhao Bao prepared a banquet and entertained the VIPs.

On the large and bright Congtai Palace, several clever beauties dressed in white clothes danced to the music. The melody of the music is intoxicating, and the dance of beauty is fascinating. Everyone was in a good mood while drinking and watching the dance.

At the end of the dance, Zhao Yong held the wine bottle high, faced left and right, and said, "Everyone, the rhino head has come from afar, we toast him." ”

Gongsun Yan was a little flattered, Zhao Jun did not call him Wei envoy, but affectionately called him rhinoceros. Gongsun Yan raised the bottle, arched his hand in the direction of Zhao Jun, raised his neck and drank all the wine in the bottle, and praised: "Zhao wine is worthy of its name, it is really good wine." ”

Zhao Bao smiled: "Rhino head, this wine also has a name." ”

"Oh." Gongsun Yan said, "Please give Zhao Xiang advice." ”

"Congtai wine." Zhao Bao, stroking his beard and smiling, said: "Rhino head, do you think Zhao wine is delicious, or Congtai wine is delicious." ”

Gongsun Yan is also a famous wine taster, compared with Zhao wine, Congtai wine and Zhao wine have their own coquettishness, and I don't know for a while, whether Zhao wine is good or Congtai wine is delicious. But in terms of fame, Zhao wine has long been spread all over the princes and countries, but Congtai wine is unknown. However, Gongsun Yan's wine tasting is based on the quality of the wine, unlike other celebrities, who pays attention to the history of wine and who made it. In the eyes of such people, the longer the history of wine. If it is made by a person of high moral character, this wine will surely become famous. This kind of person seems to drink not wine, but the person who looks at the wine. Gongsun Yan thinks that good wine makes people feel angry when they drink it, and they still want to drink it.

Gongsun took the two glasses of wine brought by the waiter, looked comfortable when he drank them, and praised: "They are all good wines." ”

When the people of Congtai Palace heard this, they burst into laughter.

When Zhao Bao heard this, he gave the rhino head another problem, and asked: "Rhino head, these two glasses of wine, can you tell which one is Congtai wine and which one is Zhao wine." ”

When the rhinoceros heard this, he immediately felt funny. Wine tasters, who do not know the name of the wine, only care about drinking, that is the work of alcoholics, and they are also vulgar people. The rhinoceros took two wines, smelled the wine, looked at the color of the wine, pointed to a glass of wine, and said, "This is Zhao wine." ”

"This glass of wine is Congtai wine."

The waiter nodded, indicating that what the head said was correct.

Zhao Bao laughed and said: "The rhino head is worthy of being a wine-colored person, and you can know it when you drink it." ”

The rhino head said ashamedly: "I love to drink Zhao wine the most in my life." It's a pity that the Zhao wine circulating on the market is all defective. High-grade Zhao wine can only be drunk in the Zhao Palace. Even if it's inferior Zhao wine, I can't put it down. ”

Zhao Yong said with a smile: "Today, the widow and the rhino head buy drunk together, how about it." ”

"Okay." The rhino head bowed his head and clapped his hands, and said: "Today, I am out of the way, and I must drink a few jars of Zhao wine to be happy." ”

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter again.

Gongsun Yan picked up a glass of wine, faced Zhao Jun, and said, "Zhao Jun, I drink all the wine of the princes and countries." Congtai wine, I drank it for the first time. If such a good wine is sold to other countries, it will be sought after by good drinkers. This wine is only drunk in the palace, which is a pity. ”

"This wine is made by Congtai Palace. The widow named Congtai wine. The history of Congtai wine is too short, and the princes and countries are not famous. If Congtai wine is spread among the princes and countries, the quality of the wine is not good, and the color of the wine is not fragrant or mellow, wouldn't it make the princes of the world laugh. ”

"Zhao Jun, this wine is a good wine, top grade." The rhino head said: "Congtai wine will definitely be famous for the princes." ”

"With the phrase rhino head, the widow is relieved"

"I am in the Great Liang of the Wei State, and I have heard that the Congtai Palace of the Zhao State is so magnificent, the Guidian Lan Palace. And what a dazzling array of belief, Bei Que Zhu Palace. My heart longs for it. Gongsun Yan looked at the hall and said, "When I saw it today, it was worthy of its name." Congtai Palace, famous among the princes, famous all over the world. ”

Zhao Yong was overjoyed when he heard this, held the wine bottle, and said, "Rhino head, please." ”

"Please."

Gongsun Yan also forgot that he had drunk a few jars of Zhao wine, but he understood that he was already seven points drunk. The ministers of Zhao State were also quite surprised, Gongsun Yan's alcohol consumption was amazing. Everyone who sat in Congtai Palace was not as good as his drink. Fortunately, a group of people drank with Gongsun Yan, otherwise, I don't know how many people were drunk.

The wine was drunk, Gongsun Yan got up, and arched his hand: "Zhao Jun, this time I came to Zhao Country to come to Hezhong. ”

When the ministers of Zhao Palace heard this, they suddenly woke up.

"The alliance of the three kingdoms of Qi, Qin and Chu divides the world equally. How can I agree, a hot-blooded man from Sanjin. Gongsun Yan raised his voice and said, "The Three Kingdoms despise us so much. Whether it is tolerable or intolerable, we don't need to endure it anymore. ”

"Rhino is right." When Zhao Bao heard this, he was also shocked, and said, "The Three Kingdoms despise us. The dignified three-jin man, how can he indulge him. ”

"Yes, we're going to show the colors of the Three Kingdoms. How can they divide the world equally? ”

Zhao Yong, with a solemn expression, said: "The Three Kingdoms are powerful, how should we deal with it." ”

Gongsun Yan said: "I came for this purpose." ”

Zhao Bao hurriedly said: "What is a good strategy for the rhino head, he can deal with the Three Kingdoms." ”

Gongsun Yan, word by word, said with strength: "Hezhong." ”

The crowd also exclaimed, "Hezhong." ”

"Yes, Hezong." Gongsun Yan stared at everyone and said, "The Qi State is in the east, the Qin State is in the west, and the Chu State is no longer difficult." The Three Jin Dynasty happened to be surrounded by the Three Kingdoms. If you are three together, you will be born. If you are divided into three Jin, you will die. ”

Gongsun Yan said a few words, clearing away the confusion in everyone's hearts. It is a good way to combine the three Jin and the vertical to deal with the strong enemy. But the three Jin Dynasty have been fighting for a hundred years, how can they be allies. Even in order to deal with foreign enemies and survive, they are reluctantly combined, and the hearts of the three Jin are difficult to walk together. Although Gongsun Yanhe's strategy of the Three Jin Dynasty was good, it was quite difficult to implement.

In 354 B.C., the Wei State brought Handan difficulties to the Zhao State, although that period of history has been dusted away. However, the people of Zhao have not forgotten that tragic history. The three Jin Dynasty will not agree to it, not only Zhao Guo will not agree, but South Korea will not agree either. The grievances between the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei are quite deep, and they cannot be easily resolved.

Gongsun Yan also saw this. Whether the Sanjin Hezong can succeed depends on Zhao Guo. If Zhao Guo does not participate, South Korea will not agree, and Gongsun Yan's strategy will not succeed. Zhao Bao also felt that the strategy proposed by Gongsun Yan was indeed deeper and farther than ordinary people. I also have a deep admiration for his talent. The Three Jin were able to unite and deal with the princes together. He had never thought of such an idea. Because, in his bones, he believes that the three Jin will only fight, not together.

Zhao Bao and others spoke out against it. The Wei State brought Handan difficulties to the Zhao State, which impressed this generation too much. They experienced the war firsthand. One by one, their relatives, friends, and comrades-in-arms fell. Many families in Zhao are also incomplete. Although Wei did not destroy Zhao, Zhao's national strength was greatly damaged, and it was also a great loss of vitality. Zhao Chenghou, the hero of the first generation, died depressed because of this war.

Between the three Jin Dynasty, the hatred of the country and the family is too deep, how can it be easily resolved because of a word.

Gongsun Yan's words caused an uproar among everyone. Everyone stood up one after another and rebuked the disaster that Wei had brought to Zhao. Seeing this, in order to avoid the expansion of the situation, it was difficult to clean up, so he said to everyone: "Today, I only care about drinking, and I don't talk about state affairs." Whoever wants to speak of state affairs, please go out to the widow. ”
