Different from the previous nervousness of the palace guards of the Qi Kingdom, in the face of an old man in his seventies and eighties, Xia Huan, who had also learned a lot of martial arts, was definitely not afraid of him.

Therefore, with a wave of his hand, for a while, there were only Xia Huan and Kuai Mu left next to the table.

"What do you want to tell me?" Seeing that his subordinates had withdrawn, Xia Huan no longer concealed it, but asked bluntly.

"Young man, don't be in a hurry." Kuai Mu smiled, and the old god said on the ground.

Xia Huan frowned, not understanding what attention Kuai Mu was paying attention to.

"Kuai Xiang ......"

Xia Huan wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Kuai Mu.

"Today's situation is not what it was decades ago, and the foreign minister still knows this." There was a hint of twilight in Kuaimu's words.

Xia Huan couldn't help frowning even tighter.

The relationship between the two is still hostile, and even, a few hours ago, they almost took each other's lives.

Now, Kuai Mu suddenly made some confessions, which made Xia Huan extremely uncomfortable.

Ignoring Xia Huan's somewhat uncomfortable expression, Kuai Mu continued: "Now, although the prince is not young, his temperament is really a little generous......

Xia Huan nodded, a generous person may be a person worth befriending, but he will never be a good monarch.

"The old ministers in the court are also in the twilight, and there will not be too much trouble with them supporting the Qi State for the time being. But in 10 years at most, I'm afraid it will wither away. ”

Kuai Mu's words have never even been spoken to his beloved disciple Tian Wen.

Even, Kuai Mu has been instilling in Tian Wen the idea that the old minister has misled the country. Let Tian Wen always have a huge grudge against the entire Laochen system.

Of course, Xia Huan also knows something about the court of Qi.

is old, has no sharpness, but refuses to let go of power.

You know, this is not the future generations, the sixty or seventy years old today is not much different from the ninety years old in the future generations.

Even in later generations, after the system is perfected, it is rare for people of such an age to continue to hold important positions in the country.

However, although these old ministers are old, it is undeniable that they still play an important role in maintaining the stability of the Qi State.

In short, it's also a blessing and a curse.

"Say whatever you want, don't beat around the bush."

Xia Huan didn't want to fight with Kuai Mu, even if Kuai Mu's words were beautiful, he had to maintain a certain degree of vigilance.

What's more, he was really worried that he would be fooled if he was told too much by Kuai Mu.

"Huh." Kuai Mu smiled, but he was not angry, but continued: "Foreign minister, how about you want to make a deal with Your Highness?" ”

"Deal?"

Xia Huan didn't rush to refuse, but he didn't show a hint of approval.

"Qi State, if nothing happens, I am afraid that it will decay day by day after His Majesty's funeral. And the deal that the foreign minister wants to make with His Royal Highness is to keep the society of our Qi country from dying within twenty years. ”

Xia Huan was stunned for a moment, listening to Kuai Mu's meaning, he seemed to have a lot of confidence in him.

"Kuaixiang overestimated me, I can't do this......"

Kuai Mu didn't give Xia Huan any excuse to refuse, and said directly: "It doesn't matter if you can't do it, as long as Your Highness agrees, it's enough." ”

This time, Xia Huan was even more stunned.

"What can Kuaixiang give me?" Xia Huan hesitated for a moment and asked.

Since it is a transaction, Xia Huan naturally needs his own remuneration.

"The Book of Qi Kingdom!" Kuai Mu stared at Xia Huan and said very firmly.

……

The conversation between Xia Huan and Kuai Mu is just something that God knows, you know and I know. Not even a paper note.

The two chatted until ten minutes of sunset, and then Kuai Mu stood up, and after bowing to Xia Huan with some sloppiness, he walked towards the palace guard of Qi State.

"Drive!"

After a whistling, more than 300 Qi palace guards all left.

"Your Highness......" Chen Zhaoming walked to Xia Huan's side and said with an inquiry.

"Let's get ready." Xia Huan looked at Kuai Mu who was leaving, and said to Linzi City under the sunset: "Tomorrow, we will enter the city and visit Prince Qi." ”

"Your Highness!"

Chen Zhaoming couldn't help but be shocked. Although there is a lack of troops in Linzi City, if you enter the city, it will become an urn, which is too risky.

"It's okay, let's get ready." Xia Huan waved his hand and said.

"Whoa." Seeing that Xia Huan insisted, Chen Zhaoming could only go back to Yu Meng to discuss a thing or two first.

However, Xia Huan said again: "You don't need to bring too many people, it's enough to bring these palace guards." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Zhaoming finally said, "Huh." ”

This night, someone is destined to have trouble sleeping. Kuai Mu and Xia Huan's deal, not to mention the details, is roughly no one will guess it.

However, the fact that Kuaimu went out for several hours has already spread throughout Linzi.

When this person was in a panic, Kuai Mu was able to go out of the city for a while with people and return safely, which shows that the war between the two sides has not reached the time of endless death.

Soon, just before nightfall, news came from the palace.

Tomorrow, the envoy of Chu will pay a visit to His Royal Highness the Prince!

When such news came out, many people were relieved. However, while reassuring, there are also many people who want to have a relationship with this Chu envoy.

Now, most of the big clans that are really completely tied to the Qi State have left with the Qi Emperor.

Tomorrow, in the palace, it will be their small and medium-sized families who can fill the façade. As long as you do it covertly, you may not be able to get the blessing of the Chu State.

In this battle, everyone knows that Qi has completely become a second-rate country, and one more way will naturally have more vitality.

"Boom!"

The ancient city of Linzi, which has lasted for nearly a thousand years, slowly opened the heavy city gate. A group of hundreds of Qi palace guards neatly assembled in front of the city gate.

And the leader is the herdsman of a country.

"Your Highness."

"I've been waiting for a long time."

Xia Huan and Kuai Mu saluted each other, and an inexplicable look flashed in their eyes.

Surrounded by hundreds of Qi palace guards, Xia Huan and Kuai Mu rode together and drove in the direction of the palace.

Along the way, although a path has long been clear. However, there are still many curious heads popping up upstairs or between the windows.

However, when they saw the so-called Chu envoy, they were undoubtedly not shocked.

Such a young handsome son is the Chu envoy who is related to the national fortunes of the Qi country.
