——

After a private discussion, Yingji summoned Su Li, who was summoned to the Xianyang Palace, and personally signed the letter of alliance, and since then the Qin State and the Qi State have formed an alliance and become friends.

The world has also ushered in a new pattern, since then, Longxi Qiang Qin and East China Sea Qiang have joined together to warm up to deal with the three Jin Wei, Zhao and Han who dominated the Central Plains.

As soon as the court meeting dispersed, Su Li asked to see King Qin again, Yingji was very curious and agreed, and in the side hall, King Qin asked curiously: "Why don't you say something to the court, sir?" ”

"King Qin Rongyu!" Su Li smiled and arched his hand: "It is a private matter entrusted by others, but this matter is also a state affair for King Qin and Qin State." ”

"Oh? Where do you start with that? Yingji asked with great interest.

"Does King Qin know that Prime Minister Gan of your country is now in Qi State?" Su Li asked, Ying Ji was quite surprised when this remark came out, "Prime Minister Gan Cheng said goodbye without saying goodbye, so far the widow is still haunted, I can't imagine that he actually ran to the Qi country?" ”

Su Li sat on the side of the case, and said lightly: "When I was also an envoy to your country, I met Prime Minister Gan Cheng, and he said that there was no place for him to live in this Qin country. ”

"What's the explanation?" Yingji's face was pale and asked quietly. Su Li immediately faced the king and bowed his hand: "The foreign minister has the courage to say a word, and I hope that the king of Qin will forgive his sins." ”

"Sir, but it doesn't hurt to say that." Yingji stretched out his hand and said, with this promise, Su Li said bluntly: "Prime Minister Gan Cheng said, this Qin State has changed, and the remnants of the former dynasty and the political affairs of the Qin State are mostly decided by the King of Qin. ”

Before Su Li's words fell, he listened to the Yingji big slap on the throne, and he responded angrily: "Gan Mao is bold ......!" ”

This remark undoubtedly hit the biggest sore spot in the heart of Yingji, who had just been pro-government, although he was pro-government, but he could not be dictatorial in the political affairs of the Qin State, and all major events in the country and the government and the opposition obeyed the Queen Mother.

"Okay, you're Gan Mao, you speak wildly, do you really think you can be alone?" The angry Yingji shouted on the spot: "Come on, arrest all the Gan Mao family, this king is going to behead them!" ”

When Su Li saw that he was about to take orders from left and right into the hall, he hurriedly got up: "Wait!" He immediately came to the center of the hall and said to Yingji: "Can King Qin listen to the words of the foreign minister?" ”

"Say!" Yingji said impatiently.

Su Li had an idea, and said, "King Qin." This Gan Mao is an extraordinary person, a veteran of the three dynasties of the Qin State, and has been reused for three generations in a row. Moreover, he has lived in the Qin State for many years, and the border of the Qin State is from Longxi to Kunsai, and he knows all the dangers and dangers of the mountains and rivers of the Qin State. If the king of Qin was angry and killed his subordinate wives and children to vent his anger, Gan Mao would inevitably be a mortal enemy of Qin, and if such a great talent turned to defend the country, it would be very disadvantageous to the Qin state. I also hope that King Qin will think twice. ”

As soon as these words came out, Yingji in the anger woke up, the current enemy of Qin is the Three Jins, if Gan Mao learned that his wife and children were killed by himself, he turned to Wei Guo in anger and went against Qin from then on, although there are Ju Xin, Jiang Mu, Jing Xuan, Su Dai and other strategists under the account of King Wei, although Gan Mao's defection can not add wings to Wei Wang, but it is also icing on the cake.

What's more, Gan Mao is the elder of the three dynasties of the Qin State, and he has made great contributions to the Qin State no matter what, which is indelible.

Thinking of this, Yingji couldn't help but be afraid for a while, so she looked at Su Li, King Qin immediately collected all his thoughts, and said lightly: "What Mr. said is indeed quite reasonable, since this matter is Mr.'s words, can Mr. solve the doubts of the widow?" ”

Hearing Yingji's question, Su Li smiled in his heart, and suddenly looked open-minded and natural, and after thinking about it, he gave up his hand and said: "According to the opinion of the foreign ministers, if the king of Qin treats Gan Mao's wife and children well, and then allows him to welcome him back to Qin with a high-ranking official, if the king of Qin does this, he can not only win a good reputation, but if Gan Mao returns to the Qin state, the king of Qin will place him in the Qin state for the rest of his life, and he will not be allowed to send a letter to Guguan for the rest of his life." ”

King Qin was silent when he heard this, and after a while, he suddenly looked at Su Li with a smile: "It's a good one to sit on the ground and start the price, this Gan Mao is also a talent, presumably this is what he entrusted Mr. to say?" He added, "But what if he doesn't return to the Qin State?" ”

Su Li smiled slightly, arched his hand and said, "According to the opinion of the foreign ministers, Gan Mao will not return to the Qin State again." After all, after returning to Qin, the King of Qin will determine his life and death, and only in the Central Plains can he have the qualification to negotiate terms with the King of Qin. ”

"If the widow treats his family well according to your policy and welcomes him with high officials, but he is still working for the enemy's country, will the widow not be empty-handed?" Yingji asked rhetorically. Su Li shook his head and said confidently: "King Qin is too worried, Gan Mao will definitely not be so pretentious, this scholar pays attention to honor, especially a handsome man like Prime Minister Gan." As long as the king of Qin repays his grievances with virtue, Gan Mao must be grateful to Dade, how can he go against Qin? In addition, his wife and children are all in the Qin State, as long as the King of Qin leaves his subordinates in Xianyang to treat him well, Gan Mao also has some concerns, so he will naturally not conspire with the enemy country. ”

King Qin thought about it and suddenly felt reasonable, so he made a decision, "Okay, regardless of whether Gan Mao returns to Qin or not, the widow is allowed to welcome him as a secretary and treat his family members well." ”

"King Qin is wise!" Su Li arched his hand and sang.

The official and private affairs were completed, and Su Li did not stay in the Qin State for a long time, so he returned to the Qi State with the signed letter of state and returned to Linzi to resume his life. When the King of Qi saw the book of alliance between the two countries, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and with the Qin State and the Qi State echoing from afar, the pressure from the Three Jin Dynasty was finally eased.

"Aiqing, is there anything else?" After the king of Qi ordered someone to collect the national letter, he saw that Su Li was still standing and asked.

"Your Majesty, Weichen does have a thing." Su Li arched his hand.

"Please!"

"Your Majesty, when Weichen sent an envoy to the Qin State, I learned that Qin Prime Minister Gan Mao had left the Qin State and came to my Qi State." Su Li replied.

"What is Qin Xiang Gan Mao doing when he comes to my Qin country?" King Qi asked suspiciously, Su Li immediately told the ins and outs, King Qi suddenly said, and the former said: "Your Majesty, after Weichen learned about this, he ordered someone to look for Gan Mao, and sure enough, Gan Mao was in Linzi." ”

"And where is he now?" King Qi asked.

"Gan Mao temporarily lives in the Weichen Mansion." Su Li said, paused and said: "Your Majesty, according to Weichen's opinion, this Gan Mao is indeed a rare talent, as far as I know, the King of Qin has already sent someone into Qi, and wants to welcome Prime Minister Gan Cheng back to Qi as the secretary, yesterday the minister had a discussion with this person and asked about it, Gan Mao seems to be reluctant to return to Qin." ”

"Don't want to return to Qin? Then does he want to stay in my Qi country? King Qi was stunned.

"The king is wise." Su Li said: "Gan Mao does admire my king, saying that my king is a rare Ming monarch in the world, and he wants to stay in Qi and does not want to return to Qin. ”

When the young King Qi heard this, he was in a good mood, and hurriedly asked Su Li with great interest: "Mr. Gan Mao really said that?" ”

"Yes!" Su Li arched his hand and smiled: "Otherwise, why would Prime Minister Gan refuse the title of Qin Shangqing and stay in Linzi?" ”

When King Qi heard this, he was greatly agreed, and was admired by such a handsome man, Tian Di (King Qi Xiang) was in a very good mood at the moment, and after a while, he asked: "Su Li, if this Gan Mao is loyal to my Qi country, what kind of official should the widow be proper?" ”

Su Li thought for a while, and then said: "Since the state of Qin welcomes him back to the country as the secretary, my king should treat him as the secretary. Moreover, with the talent of Mr. Gan Mao, my king can only match his talent if he is allowed to be the secretary. ”

King Qi nodded again and again, "What Aiqing said is very true, and the widow will allow Shangqing to leave Gan Mao in the position." Su Li, since he is temporarily living in your mansion, tomorrow the court will be joined by you and Mr. Gan into the palace, and the widow will make a grand edict above the court meeting, and worship Mr. Gan as my guest secretary of Qi State, and the lord will be the supreme secretary. ”
