"This ...... It's a little little, right? Meng Yannian said with an ugly face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Yes......" Emperor Jingtai said unhurriedly: "But this year, my Chu country has a bad year, the Bashu earthquake, the Huguang flood, and the Lingnan plague, I am really too busy to take care of myself, and I am powerless," and made a wish: "That's it, when we ease up, we will definitely support it, do you think it's good?" ”

Doesn't that mean you didn't say it? The two envoys were infinitely depressed in their hearts, but they couldn't help it, after all, the emperor of Chu didn't say anything to death. In order to avoid making enemies for no reason, the two benevolent brothers decided to knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs, and endured it!

After finishing this matter, Emperor Jingtai raised his glass and said: "I'm tired, let's continue." After speaking, he put down the cup, and with the support of the palace people, he left the hall tremblingly.

Sending off His Majesty the Emperor, the wine could not be drunk, and the deflated envoys of Qi left in a gloomy manner; The unsuccessful King Zhou and his gang left in a huff; I don't know whether it was a loss or a profit, His Royal Highness the King of Longevity, also opened the way with a straight face.

Only a group of civil officials were left around King Zhou to celebrate. A banquet broke up unhappily, and these people were the only ones who were proud.

Back in the car, Qin Lei tore the Nanchu royal clothes on his body, crumpled them into a ball three or two, and threw them under his feet.

Le Buyi and Shi Dang looked at him silently, they were all Qin Lei's closest people, they naturally understood his self-respecting character, and after being insulted like this today, they would definitely not give up.

"Meng Yannian, Zhao Wuxi, and Chu Feiyi must die." Qin Lei said expressionlessly: "I can't swallow this breath no matter what." ”

Le Buyi frowned when he heard this: "Lord Wang, we are going to flee in two days, so let's not make any extraneous branches." ”

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "No, no matter what, these people ...... At least the first two, too, must die. Saying that, he found a reason to comfort Le Buyi and said, "Just think I'm going to completely destroy the Qichu Alliance." ”

Le Buyi nodded with a wry smile and sighed lightly: "The reason why Emperor Jingtai did not agree to send troops this time is not because this emperor has no ambition, but he clearly sees that it was the Qi State that provoked the war, and eighty percent of the people who won in the end were the Qi State, so according to their principle of 'helping the weak but not helping the strong', they will not help the Qi State." Saying that, he smiled and said, "Maybe, Emperor Jingtai will join forces with our Qin State." "This is the fundamental reason, a mature emperor will not be swayed by personal likes and dislikes, they will only do what is beneficial to the empire, and will not be as selfish as Emperor Zhaowu is extreme and narrow-minded.

"Why did Qi Guo win?" Shi Dang couldn't help but interject, and said with some apprehension after speaking: "It's too much to talk about your position." ”

Qin Lei shook his head and signaled that it didn't matter. Seeing that he was too lazy to speak, Le Buyi explained to Shi Dang: "Sun Tzu said that there are five ways to win: that is, there are five criteria for judging the outcome of a war. ”

"Let's analyze them one by one," he said, "First, we can accurately judge whether the battle can be fought or not, now the Eastern Qi is at the top of the edge, and my Great Qin is in a difficult period of transformation, so this battle cannot be fought, but Emperor Zhaowu insists on fighting, and it is bound to lose; Second, knowing that the one who takes countermeasures according to the strength of the enemy and us wins, and the emperor does not consider the strength of the forces of the two sides, and blindly seeks the decisive battle of the main force, which is to suffer a big loss, and is bound to lose; Third, the so-called 'those who want the same will win' means that the whole country and the whole army will win with the same will and concerted efforts. ”

Shi Dang nodded, as Qin Lei's close minister, he naturally knew how serious the contradictions and factions in the country, especially in the military circles, were.

"Fourth, to be well prepared to fight the unprepared. The State of Qi has been carefully preparing for this war from all sides for three years, and our war preparations have not yet been fully launched, so we are bound to lose. Fifth, the lord will be proficient in military affairs, good at contingency, and the monarch will not intervene...... Oh, who will the Lord be? Ninety out of nine is His Majesty the Emperor, he doesn't seem to have fought a battle......" All five fingers were put away, and Le Buyi said in a deep voice: "So this battle will be lost." ”

"Then hurry up and stop this war!" Shi dared to be naïve.

Le Buyi smiled bitterly: "Four years ago, I foresaw that my wife still had half a year to live, and if I tried everything to save her, she would only live for one more month, or suffer one more month. ”

Qin Lei finally spoke: "Yes, we are powerless to prevent this war, so we can only show real skills and redeem some strategic disadvantages from the tactical level." ”

Shi Dang pondered for a long time, and finally said solemnly: "Lord Wang, my subordinates ask for orders to assassinate Meng Yannian and Zhao Wuxian." ”

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "I want to do it myself." Shi Dare understood the temper of the prince, and he couldn't pull back the ten cows that he had identified, so he had to keep his mouth shut and stay aside honestly.

"You send an invitation to Chu Feijiao tomorrow, and say that I will invite him to come over for a while." After the carriage traveled for a while, Qin Lei suddenly said, "It's set for tomorrow night." Shi Dang hurriedly responded.

The next day was not yet noon, and a good news came - the envoy of Qi State had lost face and did not want to stay in Chu State any longer, and he would leave for China tomorrow.

Qin Lei was taking a nap, but as soon as he heard the news, he immediately got up, took off the saber on the wall, and began to wipe it attentively, and even asked Shi Dare to bring a whetstone, which was a bit of a sharpening knife to the pig and sheep.

Of course, tomorrow is to arrive after today, so what needs to be done today still has to be done.

Before it was dark, King Zhou came as promised, Qin Lei invited him to the high pavilion, the pavilion collapsed, there was a small machine on the couch, and the wine and food had been placed on the plane. The two of them retreated from their respective left and right, and Qin Lei ordered someone to guard the attic and not let anyone in.

King Zhou looked at Qin Lei as if he was facing a great enemy, and smiled: "Brother, which one is this?" It makes people nervous. ”

Qin Lei poured him a glass of wine and said, "I invited Brother Tianyou to come here today to discuss a major matter of life and death. ”

"What's so important?" King Zhou asked quietly.

"King Qi!" Qin Lei groaned, "Do you remember the day Your Majesty just woke up? ”

King Zhou bowed his head and said: "I remember it vividly. ”

"You told me that day, if Your Majesty asks about the illness, let me focus on the matter of King Qi making things difficult for me." Qin Lei said softly.

"Hmm......" King Zhou's face began to become serious: "Didn't you say that Your Majesty didn't ask?" ”

"Actually, he asked." Qin Lei lowered his head and said, "But I originally thought that I was a doctor, and there was no need to get involved in the dispute between your brothers, so I vaguely passed it." ”

King Zhou said bitterly: "Brother, you are shrewd and confused for a while...... Since the day you were introduced by me, the third child has regarded you as a thorn in the flesh. ”

Qin Lei smiled bitterly and said: "Brother, I am reckless, I was originally counting on calming things, but I didn't know until yesterday how deep the Third Highness's prejudice against me was. ”

King Zhou was overjoyed in his heart, pretending to glance at Qin Lei profoundly, and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for you, his treacherous plan would have succeeded, maybe he would have been a great treasure now, do you think he can not hate you to the bone?" ”

Qin Lei nodded, and said helplessly: "People don't hurt the tiger, the tiger hurts people's hearts, and now, I can't sit still," he raised his head and stared at King Zhou, and said word by word: "Do you know, Your Majesty belongs to King Qi!" ”

These words suddenly thundered like five thunders, which shocked King Zhou's pores all over his body, and the cold wind poured into it, and he couldn't help but shudder: "Can't it...... My father has always liked me. ”

Qin Lei also shook his head inscrutablely, lowered his voice and said, "You know, in the recent period, I have been in contact with His Majesty a lot......"

King Zhou nodded with a pale face...... Of course, Qin Lei had the most contact with Emperor Jingtai, especially a few days ago, he had to enter the palace every day to treat the old emperor with acupuncture and moxibustion, and sometimes he stayed for half a day. 'Eighty percent was revealed to him by His Majesty unintentionally...... 'Thinking of this, King Zhou's heart was pounding, his hands were tightly gripping the table, his nails were sunk into the wood, and he didn't know it, but his eyes were fixed on Qin Lei, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he found that he couldn't speak.

Qin Lei's voice was lowered, like a demagogic devil: "The reason why I say this is because of His Majesty's three sentences. The first sentence is: 'I didn't expect that the junior was also a filial child, I was very relieved!' The second sentence is: 'The two countries in the north are about to fight, and we must also raise our spirits and keep this family business.' The third sentence is: 'In this world, if you don't have a strong way, you won't even be able to look at home.' ’”

King Zhou nodded faintly, he knew that what Qin Lei said was true, because he had people around Emperor Jingtai, and those people would write down Emperor Jingtai's words and deeds and pass them on to him, and although these three sentences came from different times, he had an impression, and he didn't feel anything wrong at that time...... But now, when Qin Lei brought these three sentences again, the situation changed all of a sudden......

These three sentences are connected in series, clearly saying: I originally thought that the third child was not a good thing, but now it seems that he is a good thing. In today's world, confrontation and war have replaced peace and development as the main problems facing the country. In this case, a relatively barbaric emperor is needed to defend the country and ensure that the interests of Great Qin are not infringed upon.

And as we all know, Qi Wangwu and Zhou Wangwen, who can adapt to the requirements of Emperor Jingtai? It's like the lice on the bald man's head, obviously.

This conclusion was undoubtedly devastating for King Zhou. You must know that the King of Qi is older than him, and his grandfather is the spiritual leader of the military circles, and he also controls the garrison of the imperial city. In all respects, King Qi's advantage was overwhelming, and the reason why King Zhou was able to confront him was only two words...... 'Holy Favor'. It is precisely because of the Holy Favor that the hundred officials will support him, and the most elite and loyal dragoons in the country will listen to him.

If he loses his holy favor, then he will be useless, and he will be easily crushed into the dust and mud by the king of Qi, and he will never be able to turn over...... Like the failed brethren.

Thinking of this, Chu Feijiao was already sweating, her eyes looked at Qin Lei in a panic, and her lips trembled: "Could it be that my father really intends to be the third child?" ”

Seeing King Zhou being bluffed into a mess by himself, Qin Lei laughed in his heart, but said lightly on his face: "Don't have it......"

Nothing, maybe there is! That's enough, isn't it? As soon as the seeds of suspicion are planted, they immediately grow into towering trees.

The struggle for succession is like the most tragic battlefield fight, unless you can have the courage of Concubine Chu, swing a knife, and completely cut off the possibility of ascending the throne, otherwise you can only live and die. In such a case, 'unwarranted' would constitute a justification for homicide...... Sufficient and necessary.

King Zhou's breathing became heavier and heavier, and Sven's delicate face became hideous because of the killing intent in his heart. I saw him staring at Qin Yutian with red eyes, and hissed, "You won't just come to mourn the orphan, right?" ”

Qin Lei didn't answer, but grabbed a chopstick Taihu white fish and chewed it carefully in his mouth. When King Zhou saw his leisurely appearance, he suddenly became angry, and reached out to sweep down all the cups, plates, bottles and bowls on the table, and smashed them to the ground.

The guards downstairs ran up with a cheer. Seeing this scene, the commander of the guards of the Zhou Palace's palace bowed his hand softly: "Your Highness......"

King Zhou waved his hand to signal that he was fine, and the guards retreated downstairs.

And Qin Lei sat there from beginning to end, unmoved.

King Zhou's face changed uncertainly for a while, and he gritted his teeth and bowed his head to Qin Lei and cried: "Please save me, sir!" ”

Qin Lei didn't help him, so he accepted him so generously, and then said slowly: "It's not difficult to say this, it's not easy to say, as long as you have determination, you will definitely succeed." ”

King Zhou was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "I have it!" I can do anything to survive! ”

Qin Lei said in a deep voice: "The reason why you can't fight King Qi is because he has a helper behind him who specializes in bad things; And if you want to defeat King Qi, his helper will become his biggest weakness. ”

"Concubine Chu?" King Zhou said in a low voice.

Qin Lei nodded and said with a smile: "This person has an old relationship with me in the Qin Kingdom, and I know his personality very well. He said firmly: "The prescription that caused His Majesty's poisoning must have come from this person." ”

King Zhou nodded, straightened up and sighed: "But at that time, the person who donated the party had already committed suicide in fear of sin, and it was impossible to trace him. ”

Qin Lei's eyes flashed, and he said faintly: "If you don't have to, it's enough." ”

"Nonsense again?" Chu Feijiao muttered: "Indeed, as long as Your Majesty begins to suspect this matter, there is no need for any conclusive evidence, and it can be made irreversible." ”

Qin Lei smiled and said, "Your Highness does have great wisdom!" ”

"But how can your majesty be suspicious?" King Zhou was worried again: "My father is really a generation of heroes, and gossip can't control him at all, but will make him disgusted with the people who speak ......."

Qin Lei smiled mysteriously: "I was prepared. As he spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve and said, "You enter the palace early tomorrow morning and give it to Your Majesty, and I will speak for you at that time." ”

King Zhou glanced at Qin Lei suspiciously, he didn't believe that a letter was as powerful as Xu Xu. But when he saw the payment on the envelope, his face suddenly became ecstatic: "Worship the Ghost Valley!" It turned out to be the Ghost Valley Immortal Master? "You must know that this unborn strange person is Chu Fei, that is, the master of Gongliangyu, if he comes forward to say something, then Your Majesty can't believe it.

"Where did this thing come from?" After the ecstasy, King Zhou began to be suspicious again: "Is it true?" ”

"Who dares to fake the Ghost Valley Immortal Master? Who can make Guiguzi fake? Qin Lei said solemnly: "In the past, I was instructed by the Immortal Master on the way of Qihuang, and I was also regarded as a master and apprentice, so he handed over this letter to me and ordered me to pass it on to Your Majesty." ”

"When?" This kind of big event, King Zhou can't help but be nervous.

"Ten days ago," Qin Lei said softly, "but I've been hesitating, you know, I just want to practice medicine in peace and stability, live a leisurely life, and don't want to get involved in the affairs between your brothers." ”

King Zhou said happily in his heart: "Sure enough, he can't live because of his own sin, and the old man never imagined that his humiliation last night actually forced out the deadly thing." As for the authenticity, there is a letter between Guiguzi and the emperor hidden in his house, and it is carefully compared.

The two rehearsed the rhetoric of tomorrow's saint, and King Zhou left with the fateful letter in his arms.
