——

Although the world is safe, the nations are also moving frequently.

In the late spring season, Yanshan is still dry and cold, the winds from all sides are competing in the land of cold swallows, the wind of the mountains in the northeast, the wind of the Bohai Sea in the southeast, the wind of the grassland in the northwest, the wind direction changes after two or three days, and the footsteps of the twilight spring season are staggering.

It is now the end of March, but Yandu Jicheng is still pale and yellow, which is naturally different from the green grass in the Central Plains. Yan State in the Yan Zhao Dynasty not only ended the turmoil, more than ten years of hard work also entered the Zhongxing period, the Northern Expedition wolf clan expanded thousands of miles, can be described as outstanding martial arts, and Jicheng is now the most prosperous place in the northern part of the Central Plains.

Yan State has dominated the northern frontier, although it is at the end of the list of the seven heroes, it is a veritable small country and a weak country, but it is the princes who are regarded as a small country and a weak country by the Central Plains heroes are indeed fighting the nomadic tribes of the northern Xinjiang who fled in embarrassment, and the Shanrong tribe who had almost wiped out the Yan country was even wiped out, and the land of the northern frontier of thousands of miles has since been divided into the boundaries of the Yan country.

Dominating the northern frontier, Yan is indeed worthy of its name.

Nowadays, the foreigners of northern Xinjiang, but all the nomadic tribes bordering the Yan country have not been wiped out, all of them say that they bow down to the Yan country, after the truce of the army, Jicheng has also become the most prosperous royal city in the north of commerce, the Xiongnu merchants have entered Jicheng with the bustling flow of people, there are also merchants from the Central Plains, among which the trading society of the Weiguo is the most prosperous in Jicheng, the Weiren merchants trade horses with the Huns and other foreign tribes, and the Yan country trades weapons, all of which are bulk transactions, and the Weiguo people also have a high status in the Yan country, and are deeply valued by the king of Yan Zhao, After all, it can not raise the heads of all ethnic groups in northern Xinjiang, and it is also indispensable to equip the strong bows and crossbows and black-armored iron weapons produced in the defense of the country.

The foreigners in the northern Xinjiang who entered Jicheng were never interrogated again, nor were they noticed. After all, the nomadic tribes in the north had already been beaten and submissive under the control of King Yan Zhao, and a little further west they were even more frightened by the cavalry of King Zhao Wuling.

There are too many Hun merchants wearing sheepskin suits and beards in today's Jicheng, and even the wine shops and inns in the city are wafting with the lingering smell of cattle and sheep.

In the palace of Jicheng Palace, Su Qin entered the palace to face the king, and King Yan Zhao said with regret as soon as he saw him: "This king regrets it, regrets that he shouldn't have listened to Xiangguo's words at the beginning, and now that he is defeated, he has also lost the rich land of the ten cities in the south of Wuping." ”

"It's not all a disaster to have this lesson, at least my king has already known that the great cause of Qi is by no means a day's work, and the country of Qi is by no means comparable to Rong Di in Northern Xinjiang." Su Qin said comfortingly.

"This time to envoy the Qi country, can the Xiangguo really recover the ten cities of Wuping from the king of Qi for this king?" King Yan Zhao's heart moved, and he asked a little anxiously, Wuping is a rare fertile land in the south of Yan State, bordering Qi State, it is an alluvial plain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and the territory in the north is cold and not suitable for farming, which is also one of the reasons why Qi State did not go north after occupying these ten county towns.

"Don't be impatient, my king has his own way to persuade the king of Qi to send these cities back, my king only needs to listen to the news of Weichen." Su Qin said with full information, King Yan Zhao thought of Su Qin's words, with his incorruptible tongue, he could win Gangping, Guanze and other important places for the Qi State from King Wei's hands, which couldn't help but have great confidence in him.

But King Yan Zhao suddenly suffered from gains and losses for a while, looked at Su Qin and said: "Xiangguo has entered the Qi line this time, this king doesn't know when he will be able to meet Qing again, you don't know when you will return, who should this king find to share his worries?" ”

Su Qin thought about it for a while, smiled and arched his hand: "Your majesty, there is someone in the court who may be able to share my king's worries." ”

"Who?" King Yan Zhao hurriedly asked.

"Zou Yan!" Su Qin said: "Although this person is young, he has great talent, and the theory of yin and yang art he has learned has the true meaning of the Guigu faction but is unique, and he must have been taught by the Guigu masters, and he thinks that this person is enough to serve as the originator of the doctrine of the sect." If my king is undecided, he can ask Zou Yan. ”

Su Qin's insight is indeed vicious, Zou Yan is the ancestor of the Yin-Yang family, but he still didn't expect that Zou Yan was a disciple of his senior brother Zhang Yi, because when he joined Yan Zuoshi, Zou Yan did not report that he was studying under the Guigu faction, and it was reasonable for Su Qin not to know that this Zou Yan was his nephew.

As soon as King Yan heard this, he immediately remembered the name Zou Yan, and at that time, he handed over the Yan State Fu Festival to Su Qin, and personally sent it all the way to a distance of thirty miles before stopping, which shows that the reliance on Su Qin can be peeped at here.

Su Qin's envoy set out from the Yan State, crossed the water control, and crossed Fangcheng and Wuping, these two cities were originally owned by the Yan State, but now they are occupied by the Qi State. I have to say that at this time, King Yan Zhao regretted that he did not listen to Su Qin's advice, thinking that the Song Dynasty invaded the Qi State, and the opportunity of the Yan State came to raise troops to go south, but the other party ignored the Song State and sent the main army of the Qi State, not to mention the famous general Kuang Zhang, who led the Northern Expedition, and the Yan army was defeated by the Qi army, and retreated again and again, and finally lost the ten counties in the south.

The Yan army, who was beating foreign people in northern Xinjiang, was still beaten obediently in the face of the feud Qi State, which really made King Yan Zhao helpless.

Entering the boundary of Qi country, it is a scene of spring rain, the cold wind has gone, and the land of Qilu on the coast of the East China Sea is a green grass. To enter Linzi, is a majestic atmosphere, the image of the big state shows the royal city, the Qi country accumulates the prestige of the king, the king of Xuan two generations of hard work, in the end is the big country of Shandong, the power, the heritage is not the country of the remnant Yan can be compared.

After Su Qin and others entered Linzi City, they repaired at the post station, and at the same time sent the Fu Festival to the palace, and the next day the court meeting received a summons from King Qi.

The moment he entered the temple of Qi as an envoy of Yan State, the ministers of Qi State all changed color, especially Meng Weijun Tianwen. The courtiers above the Qi court who had gone through the Xuan Dynasty all watched in astonishment as Su Qin calmly stepped into the hall, who of these people didn't know who this Yan envoy in front of him was?

All of a sudden, many courtiers above the Qi court glanced back and forth between Su Qin and Meng Weijun Tianwen, and their eyes were quite strange. Although Wei Wuji, who was above the temple, had heard Su Qin's name like thunder, he had never seen Su Qin with his own eyes, and he had never known that this Yan envoy was Su Qin at this time. Wei Wuji, who was perceptive, also found that his teacher rarely showed a fleeting slight change in expression, and he was also very curious for a while, could Tian Wen have some relationship with this person?

Wei Wuji didn't know, but many courtiers in the temple did know that the relationship between the two was bigger, to be precise, it was a grievance, Su Qin took the position of Tian Wen's father, Jing Guo Jun Tian Ying, and it was considered to have a grudge, if Su Qin hadn't taken the initiative to leave Qi and enter Yan, where would it be his turn to get Tian Wen in charge of this Qi country?

At this time, Su Qin was unusually calm, and he had to enter the hall, and immediately bowed to King Qi, and said, "King Yan's envoy Su Qin visited King Qi. After speaking, he said to Tian Wenli: "I've seen Xue Gong!" "Tian Wen on the side is indeed uncomfortable to be courteous, although he was once a son of heaven and a courtier, he Tian Wen is the minister of the current Qi country, but Su Qin is indeed the minister of the former dynasty of the Qi country, this salute is normal, but the party looks quite weird, after all, in terms of ability, Su Qin is only strong and not weak, and his qualifications are also high.

"You are Su Qin?" King Qi on the throne said in surprise, forgetting the etiquette for a while, seeing that Su Qin was still bowing and not moving, King Qi reacted, and hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Uh...... Excuse me! ”
