"Wonderful, this remark is really wonderful-" Jin Shang's words had not yet dissipated, and it was Zhaoyang who clapped his hands and walked in. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Walking in front of King Chu Wei, Zhaoyang smiled and arched his hand: "Weichen see the king." ”

"Aiqing is exempt-" King Chu Wei raised his eyelids, and then raised his hand to Zhaoyang, "Aiqing, please take a seat-"

"Xie Junshang—"

After Zhaoyang sat down, King Chu Wei continued, "I don't know what happened when Aiqing came here?" ”

"Back to the king, the minister is here to have a report to be presented to the king." Zhaoyang said, already getting up and taking out a tightly folded sheepskin from his sleeve.

The eunuch who was waiting by King Chu Wei's side, without King Wei speaking, consciously stepped forward to take the report and carefully forwarded it to King Chu Wei.

During this process, Jin Shang quietly looked at Zhaoyang sideways and pondered. saw that Zhaoyang also looked at him with a smile. This scene made Jin Shang a little puzzled by what kind of medicine was sold in Zhaoyang's gourd.

After a while, King Chu Wei had already read the report in his hand, but the look on his face was not happy: "Qin Wei is going to fight again, I don't want to, but Qin will be captured!" In the past few decades, Qin and Wei have fought more than 60 battles in the west of the river, and Wei has always won many victories and Qin many defeats! As a result, the Qin State lost a full seven hundred miles of land—"

At this point, I saw King Chu Wei gently put the report in his hand and put it on the few cases in front of him.

Then he said: "Qin used Gongsun Martingale to change the law for ten years!" Now the treasury is rich! A year ago, most of Hexi was recaptured, but unfortunately, Wei seemed to have a Wu Ming out of thin air. Two Aiqing, do you remember this person? ”

The report is presented by Zhaoyang! But in this era, outsiders are not allowed to watch the king's recitals, and unless the king allows it, it is a capital offense to read it!

After thinking for a while, Zhaoyang muttered: "Wu Ming, the first battle with the Qin people was in Hexi, and the Qin army was defeated in a battle, but there are rumors that this person is just winning because the Qin general does not know, and the victory is because the Qin general Sima is wrong. The gentleman mentioned this person, could it be that the report has something to do with this person? ”

After a moment of tranquility, Jin Shang also said: "The minister also remembers that this person was still made a general by the King of Wei, making him famous for a while!" Later Han and Zhao formed an alliance to defeat Wei, but they had never heard of Wu Ming's superiority-"

"Yes-" King Chu Wei closed his eyes slightly, nodded and said: "Qin State took advantage of the reign of King Wei Qi to send troops to attack Wei and attack Hexi. However, when the Jin Pass was about to be broken, it was Wu Ming and Wu Ming who led the army back to help at the critical juncture, which caught the Qin State by surprise, and in this battle, the Qin State commander Sima Coo was captured alive! The two Aiqing might as well talk about it, do you still think that this Wu Ming is a fluke? ”

didn't speak, just for a moment, Jin Shang and Zhaoyang were silent.

After a while, Jin Shang began to feel a little uneasy! After all, he was still asking King Chu Wei to attack Qi just now, threatening that the Qin State could contain the Wei State, but now it seems that it is a bit premature.

Although it was not Shang Yang who was captured, Sima Cuo was also quite famous in the world, especially in the Chu State, when Shang County of Chu State was the Shang County, it was Shang Ying and Sima Cuo who grasped the battle situation together and forced the Chu army to be defeated. Moreover, it was difficult for the reinforcements and heavy ordnance of the Chu State to climb over the mountains and send them to Shang County in a short time, which eventually led to the loss of hundreds of miles of land in the Chu State.

What made Jin Shang uneasy was that Wei had captured Sima Cuo, and for a period of time, would Qin State negotiate peace with Wei because of Sima Cuo's matter.

If this is the case, there is another layer of scruples about this war. In King Chu Wei's heart, has he already retreated?!

In Jin Shang's heart, he definitely can't let his previous achievements be wasted!

After thinking about it for a while, Jin Shang had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Your Excellency." Judging from the situation, the Wei army went to Emperor Qiu Xiang with the King of Wei, and Qin suddenly attacked Hexi, but at the last moment, the Wei army returned to help. Perhaps, this time, the Wei army was still waiting for work when the Qin army suffered too many casualties in the siege of the city, and only then did they capture Sima Cuo-"

"Zhaoyang Aiqing, what do you think?" Didn't answer Jin Shang's words! King Chu Wei turned to Zhaoyang.

It's just this question that makes Jin Shang's heart sigh! His own words, King Chu Wei Bacheng didn't agree very much! If not, he wouldn't have said a word, so he asked Zhaoyang directly.

I saw Zhaoyang straighten his face, arched his hand, and said loudly: "Dare to ask your lord, can the report mention that the two armies of Qin and Wei are now moving in Hexi?" ”

"The Qin army retreated to Yin Jin and Shaoliang, and the Wei State stuck to the Linjin Pass and did not come out-"

"If that's the case, the minister thinks that the Wei army really has luck in capturing Sima Cuo! If not, why not take advantage of the low morale of the Qin army to completely defeat the Qin army and recover the Great Wall of Hexi? ”

Zhaoyang's words directly caused doubts and reverie in King Chu Wei's mind! Although the meaning of what he said was basically the same as Jin Shang, Zhaoyang's way of telling it made King Chu Wei fall into it inadvertently.

Everything has to have some basis in the end.

After a period of silence, King Chu Wei nodded undeniably, as if to say to himself: "It should be, otherwise, Wei Qi has already formed an alliance, and Korea and Zhao have no intention of making trouble with Wei again, my Chu State has no sword soldiers with Wei State in recent years, and now Wei State should have no big concerns, and can try its best to fight against Qin State!" But the Wei State did not take advantage of this to take back Hexi, and most of the original ones were that the Wei State did not have the ability to do so at the moment——"

"Your Majesty Shengming-" This time, but Zhaoyang and Jin Shang surrendered together. Regardless of whether what King Qi Wei said is correct or not, the two of them are on par with each other.

After the ceremony, Zhaoyang continued: "Your Majesty, there is another matter for the minister, I don't know if I should talk about it?" ”

"Please—"

"Fang Caichen heard that the monarch was talking about the matter of vaping Qi, and the minister thought that this matter was feasible!" As soon as these words came out, Jin Shang and King Chu Wei were both stunned!

With a light sigh, King Chu Wei still couldn't make up his mind after all, and asked, "Aiqing's words, where do you start?" ”

"Go back to your lordship." At this moment, Zhaoyang was confident, and said very casually, "In the opinion of the minister, Wei is called the king, and all the countries in the world abandon it, so the king of Wei is not enough to say, and he can't be elegant." As far as the situation in the world is concerned, there are no major changes.

Now, Wei Qi is the king, and the two countries are allied. Although the national strength of Wei is not as good as before, it can be said that it has plummeted, but after all, there is still some background! The State of Qi has made rapid progress in recent years, and in terms of national strength alone, it is not much of a concession with our Chu State. These two countries formed an alliance and became kings together. One east and one west are like a barrier among the princes of the world.

Korea is weak, and even if there is no alliance with Wei, it is still subject to Wei. Yan Guo was already subject to Qi. Now that Wei Qi has formed an alliance, Zhao State must not act rashly. To the south, my Chu State would not dare to send troops easily.

The Qin State has the heart of going east, but it has been subject to Wei for many years. The general trend of the world, all the small countries in Sishang border Wei Qi, if these two countries work together to share the food, the rest of the countries will be powerless to stop.

Moreover, Wei Qi is all kings, and there are more two countries in the world that are on an equal footing with my Chu State, so doesn't the monarch think about it in his heart? ”

Although Zhaoyang's words are not comprehensive, they are not unreasonable. Wei Qi formed an alliance on this, and judging from today's map, aside from the Qin state, the two countries are really a hurdle in the middle.

Of course, there is no way to break the game, and there are multiple ways.

Wei Qi formed an alliance. Then why can't Qin and Chu form an alliance, although there is an enmity between Shang and Jun, but today, where are there two countries that are not wronged and have no enmity?

Driven by interests, as long as the purpose is the same, enemies can also be friends. It only depends on how the king of Chu is willing to choose.

At this time, King Chu Wei was thoughtful, obviously listening to the words. Jin Shang, who was not far away, couldn't help but be secretly impressed by Zhaoyang.

No wonder when he instigated the King of Chu to form an alliance with Weiguo before, he was easy to talk about, and in the end, it was Zhaoyang who came forward to really settle the matter. At this time, he realized that he was very different from Zhaoyang!

After King Chu Wei pondered for a while, Zhaoyang continued: "Right now, the Wei State has just gained a firm foothold, regardless of whether its two armies Wu Ming relied on luck to win. At least, his appearance allowed Wei's defeat in Hexi to be stabilized!

And in the past year, the king of Wei has also collected a lot, and the whole Wei country has a solid foundation, and if you want to strengthen the country, you must first consolidate the foundation. If time passes, the Wei State will return to the peak of that day, and the Wei Qi alliance at that time will be—"

Having said that, there is no need to go on.

King Chu Wei, who witnessed the strength and weakness of the Wei State, knew that if the Wei State at the time of total victory formed an alliance with the Qi State, not to mention his Chu and Qin alliances, it would be to pull Zhao, Han, and Yan, and the five countries would work together to resist Wei Qi, but I was afraid that it would also be the result of losing both.

After all, when Wei was at its strongest, it faced Qin in the west, Chu in the south, and fought on two fronts, but it was still unstable to the north and destroyed Zhongshan.

He once supported the puppets in Zhongshan and made them submit to Wei. It's just that with the repeated defeats of Wei, Zhongshan got rid of Wei's control and regained the country again.

Thinking of the strength of the Wei State in the past, King Chu Wei finally showed his worries. But after thinking about it, he just asked: "In that case, why didn't Aiqing choose to cut Wei?" And you want to conquer the country of Qi? ”

"There are two reasons for this! First, attacking the State of Qi can be used in the name of defending the country, after all, our State of Chu and the State of Wei have formed an alliance first, and the State of Chu is benevolent and righteous, and it is reasonable to help the State of Qi get rid of the shackles of the State of Qi. Van Wei inevitably had to say something.

Second, at this time, our army crossed thousands of miles away, although it could still garrison the territory, but Daliang City in the south of Wei State bore the brunt. At that time, Wei will go all out to fight against our Chu State, and if Qi State sends troops to help Wei, the situation will be unfavorable to our Chu State.

And if Wei and Zhao Guo are not allowed, South Korea is afraid that it will not be able to help much.

In this way, my Chu State did not say anything passively, but created a good opportunity for the Qin State.

As far as Daliang and Hexi are concerned, Wei Guoding will do his best to protect Daliang, so wouldn't it help Qin Guoda?

If Qi is defeated, Qin will contain Wei, and although Korea is in chaos due to disasters, it can still contain Wei. The minister is also willing to send envoys to Zhao and Yan, form an alliance with Zhao Yan, and fight Qi together-"

These words are said. In addition, some of the originals that Jin Shang said before, King Chu Wei was completely convinced.

Thinking that if the current situation is allowed to develop, there will only be many disadvantages to the Chu State, and King Chu Wei's mood is difficult to calm down.

Aiqing's words really mentioned the widow. It's just that the expedition is no trivial matter, and it still needs time to mobilize troops and gather grain and grass. In the opinion of the widows, they can act separately. The matter of the army and grain and grass was handed over to Jin Shang. During this time, Zhaoyang sent envoys to Zhao and Yan, what do the two Aiqing think? ”

"Minister, obey the order of the king-" Zhaoyang and Jin Shang said in unison again.

――

This afternoon.

Chen Zhen hurriedly rode into the palace. This was the first time that Wei Shen had privately summoned his courtiers since he took the throne. And this first person is Chen Zhen.

Although Chen Zhen has the meaning of a villain, he is dedicated to the Lord, and King Wei Hui has a heavy responsibility for him, so he will do his best to serve King Hui. Wei Shen took office, and if he was entrusted with it, he would serve Wei Shen with all his might.

And his dedication is different from most virtuous ministers and villains.

The villain is bent on making profits for himself, and even instigates the monarch to make mistakes, deliberately making the monarch make mistakes. Such as Zhao Gao in later generations.

The virtuous ministers are dedicated to the country and the people, and dare to correct the king of a country.

Chen Zhen is the person, what the king wants, he will try his best to meet the king's wishes. will neither instigate the monarch to be mediocre, nor will he deliberately correct the monarch's mistakes.

It can be said that this person's ability to pat on the back is first-class.

After being summoned by Wei Shen, Chen Zhen entered the palace as soon as possible.

In the Ganquan Palace, singing and dancing are leveled. At this time, Wei Shen was drinking with Wan'er who followed from Qi State.

The bright red twilight embellished the atmosphere ambiguously, looking at the dancer's waist, Wei Shen smiled happily while caressing Wan'er's hair.

After Chen Zhen arrived, Wei Shen's cheeks were already flushed from drunkenness.

"Chen Aiqing, you are Xiangguo, and you are in an important position, and you should share the worries of the widow! At this summons, the widow wanted to know, what do you think about the use of businessmen as officials that the general said some time ago? Stretching out his hand and pointing at Chen Zhen, Wei Shen said a little dazed.

Although it was the first time to be alone, judging from this meeting, judging from Wei Shen's situation at the moment.

Chen Zhen's heart has already been decided, this Wei Shen's scheming is much worse than his father's, so Chen Zhen does not hide it. Said bluntly: "Back to the king, the minister thinks that this matter is absolutely inappropriate, if it goes on like this for a long time, will the world be chaotic-"

"Aiqing really thinks this?" Picking up the wine that Wan'er had poured in his hand, Wei Shen drank it all! Asked casually.

"The minister didn't dare to say half a lie—"

"It is so good that no one will allow it, not even the king's father. Therefore, if the general mentions this time in the future, he still needs Chen Aiqing to come forward to speak, so that the general can retreat in difficulty-"

Hearing this, Chen Zhen immediately felt glad that he didn't stand up to speak for Wu Ming at that time, otherwise, he would also touch the mold, which was not what Chen Zhen wanted.

Therefore, Chen Zhen immediately surrendered his hand, and his demeanor was not without respect: "Minister, I respectfully obey the orders of the king-"

Wei Shen only glanced at him lightly, and didn't seem to care if Chen Zhen thought about it or not, and only asked casually: "Since the widow ascended the throne, he is very suspicious, the general is a good person, but he doesn't know how to avoid it, and he is slightly arrogant." Why did the monarch's father entrust all the taxes and other things in Hexi? Can Chen Aiqing explain a thing or two? ”
