When the Meng sisters heard Qi Wangtian's quirks, they didn't understand that there was such a weird person, and at the same time, they were deeply upset by Su Qin.

"I think, it's better to draw a sword and assassinate him on the spot when I go to see King Qi tomorrow, scare and scare him, then he should think that we are different." Sister Meng Di really couldn't think of a way, and suddenly said viciously.

When Su Qin heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This is unacceptable, if the King of Qi really thinks that we are deliberately assassinating, and he is angry, he is not going to settle accounts with Zhao Guo, the risk of doing so is too great." Categorically undesirable. ”

"Hehe, I'm joking, look at you scared, you even took it seriously." Meng Di laughed.

Meng Ting bit her lip and said with some uncertainty: "Or, let's try to impress King Qi with a peculiar song and dance?" My sister and I did learn some when we were young, and it was for fun, so that my parents, relatives and friends would be shocked to look at it, and I wonder if it can come in handy now. ”

After hearing this, Su Qin was overjoyed and said, "Oh, that's great." King Qi has a strong child's temperament, if you can perform the strange dance of a child, maybe it can really make him feel refreshing and happy. ”

"When we were young, we used to dance weird dances, and we had to do a part of it almost every day as a break from learning to dance. It's just that more than ten years have passed, can we still do those actions again? ”

When Meng Di heard her sister's words, she was also interested, but she was also a little worried.

Meng Ting replied affirmatively: "We have been dancing for so many years, and those movements have long been familiar, even if some dance postures can't be danced, you can replace them with new tricks in other aspects such as clothing." ”

Su Qin nodded deeply again, admiring Meng Ting very much, thanks to her coming up with this idea, otherwise he really didn't know how to deal with Qi Wangtian's quirks.

Su Qin asked curiously, "What is the dance of the two of you, why don't you show me tonight?" It was an eye-opener for me. ”

Meng Ting resolutely refused, and said: "Go to see that Tian Bijiang tomorrow, you asked him to watch Zhao Guo's 'Heavenly Maiden Dance', see how he reacts?" If he takes the bait, you can invite him to Tianfu, and we will just give him a performance, and he will be stunned on the spot. ”

Su Qin replied: "Then when I go to see Tian Pijiang tomorrow, I am full of confidence, I will greatly promote the magical dance skills of the two of you in front of him, and he can't wait to come and watch it immediately." ”

Those who have contributed to the great cause of cooperation should be rewarded, Su Qin thought of this, he specially took out five taels of gold from his house and sent it to the Meng sisters.

The Meng sisters didn't expect Su Qin's thanks to come so quickly, the two of them were not prepared, so they excused themselves first, and they said, "I am also a member of the Zhao State Mission, this is what should be done." ”

Su Qin replied: "The rich reward given to me by the Marquis of Zhao was originally to fund the lobbying of the princes, since you two are the envoys sent by the Zhao State, then with your merits this time, you are worthy of the bounty I gave you." ”

Su Qin insisted on leaving the gold to the sisters, he knew that anyone's contribution must be properly reported in a timely manner, so that it was a long-term solution, otherwise, how could anyone actively contribute to the mission?

Moreover, the distinction between rewards and punishments is also a basic rule for the management of any group.

Su Qin went with Tian Tong the next morning to see Qi Wang Tian Pijiang early, and because he followed Tian Tong, he went straight to the Linzi Palace without being blocked and interrogated.

He thought in his heart: "This is also the convenience of people in the court, compared to the cumbersome notification when I first arrived at Handan Palace, it can be much easier." ”

Su Qin paid attention to the surrounding environment from entering the Linzi Palace, and he saw that the scale of the Linzi Palace was very large, only slightly smaller than the Xianyang Palace of the Qin State, but after entering the palace, he saw the various halls in the palace, as well as the steps of His Majesty, the roads, etc., which were particularly exquisite, all of them were carved beams and paintings, and they were splendid, and the simple style of the Xianyang Palace showed the wealth and luxury of the Qi Kingdom.

Tian Tong brought Su Qin to the Shouning Palace, where the King of Qi lived, and he asked Su Qin to wait in front of the palace gate, and he went to help Tongyu. After a while, Tian Tong came back and told Su Qin: "The King of Qi is already waiting for Su Qin in the palace, and he will come with me immediately." ”

Su Qin entered Shouning Palace and saw King Qi sitting upright in the hall, he was in his forties, slightly short, slightly fat, with bright eyes, and a look of joy between his eyebrows, as if he was ready to discover something new.

Su Qin made a cursory observation of the King of Qi, took two quick steps, and then bowed to the ground to salute the King of Qi, and praised the King of Qi for his boundless longevity.

King Qi didn't care about Su Qin's etiquette, he said directly and clearly: "It's Prime Minister Su Cheng, the envoy of Zhao State, I've heard of you, it seems that Sun Bin talked about Guiguzi and his two disciples Su Qin and Zhang Yi back then, but I didn't expect to meet one of them today." ”

Tian Pijiang immediately made a gesture to sit again, and let Tian Tong and Su Qin sit in the guest seats in the hall.

He asked curiously: "Prime Minister Su Cheng came from afar, is there anything good to tell the widow?" The widow knows that you are a strange person, and you will not disappoint the widow. ”

Tian Bijiang is quick to talk and rarely polite, which really makes it difficult for Su Qin to adapt for a while.

He replied tentatively: "How dare I be called a 'strange person', it's just some false names spread by the world." If I want to say a good thing, I have a strange idea I want to tell the king. ”

"What a miracle strategy, it can't be the strategy you have always advocated, I have heard people talk about it. Although the strategy of combining and longitudinal is clever, now is not the right time, because the Qin State is far less powerful than Prime Minister Su imagined, right? ”

Tian Pijiang bluntly denied Su Qin's plan, which made Su Qin very uncomfortable.

He thought: "You Tian Pijiang is too arrogant and arrogant. The State of Qi is very powerful and far away from the State of Qin, but it cannot rest on its laurels because of this. The scourge of burning the soldiers, maybe one day it will burn to the border of the Qi country, how can you get rid of yourself at that time. ”

Su Qin remembered the general weaknesses of Qi that Sun Bin talked about in Yunmeng Mountain: conservatism and short-sightedness. Although it was the first time to meet Tian Bijiang today, Su Qin clearly felt this.

He was nervously pondering the strategy he could take: since he couldn't directly talk about moving the field and opening up the territory with the principle of a combination of strategies, it was better to bypass the topic first and start with what he was interested in.

Su Qin then said: "The main purpose of Weichen's coming this time is, of course, to make an alliance between Qi and Zhao and get along amicably. But Weichen also has personal private thoughts, I heard that the king is a learned person who likes strange people, strange things, and strange things, and everyone in the world thinks that you are a generation of Ming Jun, so I can learn some insight from the king, which is also my long-standing wish. ”

Tian Bijiang listened to Su Qin's words, and was so happy that he laughed and said, "Prime Minister Su is really a wonderful person, and he guessed the widow's mind at once!" ”

He said not without conceit: "I don't want everything to go according to plan, so boring and vulgar. Since Prime Minister Su is not a layman, there must be something that opens the eyes of the widow. ”

Su Qin replied: "When Weichen came from Zhao State, he heard about the king's knowledge, and specially prepared the most peculiar song and dance of Zhao State, ready to dedicate it to the king. I wonder if the king can go and watch it? ”

When King Qi heard this, he immediately became interested and said: "The music and dance of the Zhao Kingdom are famous all over the world, and many of the music and dance artists in the widow's palace are from the Zhao Kingdom. The widow has been looking forward to being able to go to Zhao to enjoy the authentic music and dance in person, but he is tired by state affairs and has no chance. ”

"What Weichen prepared for the king is a rare strange dance in Zhao Kingdom, and it is specially presented to the king to enjoy." Su Qin further tempted.

"Oh, then I'm going to have to go see it. How about going today? I don't know where Prime Minister Su arranged to perform. Tian Bijiang asked eagerly.

Su Qin glanced at Tian Tong and found that he was staring at him intently, listening attentively to the conversation between King Qi and himself. Su Qin wanted to borrow the lobby of Tian's mansion, so he said: "The mission led by Weichen is now temporarily living in Tian Qing's mansion, I don't know how to borrow Tian Qing's venue for a while?" ”

Tian Tong heard Su Qin say that he wanted to borrow the venue to perform music and dance, but it happened suddenly, and he was still weighing the pros and cons of borrowing or not borrowing in his heart.

Tian Pijiang couldn't bear it, he said to Tian Tong bluntly: "Uncle will lend it to the Zhao State Mission, the performance of music and dance is just one night and a hall." How can an uncle's generous person be so stingy. ”

"Since the king wants the ministers to come down, how dare the ministers refuse, I will listen to the king's orders." Tian Tong replied.

In front of his nephew Tian Pijiang, he adhered to the etiquette of a monarch and a minister, although the king of Qi called him uncle, but he still could not be rude.

When Su Qin heard Tian Tong's words, he secretly admired Tian Tong's rigor, as if everything had to be planned and then moved.

And Su Qin saw that things were really developing in the direction he expected, so he pushed the boat down the river, simply followed the mind of King Tian of Qi, and agreed to perform Zhao Guo's music and dance for King Qi in the lobby of Tianfu that night. King Qi couldn't help but applaud.

Su Qin saw the king of Qi for the first time, and made an audience ceremony, and soon said goodbye to Tian Pijiang, and he returned to Tianfu alone, and Tian Tong still stayed in the court to discuss with the king of Qi. And Su Qin also happened to want to hurry back to the station, discuss with the Meng sisters, and arrange the details of the performance.

Su Qin returned to the courtyard where he lived and saw the Meng sisters rehearsing a dance with long sleeves fluttering. Su Qin stopped to watch, but was distracted by Meng Ting.

She said: "With you here, our dance has been seen by you in advance, how can there be a sense of mystery, we will surprise you again when we perform in the evening." So you have to shy away from it. ”

Su Qin sneered, wanting not to leave, he said: "I'm just going to take a look, and I don't talk nonsense, I don't comment, what's the matter?" ”

Sister Meng Ting said unceremoniously: "With you, we feel that we are in the way and can't let go." ”

Su Qin saw that the Meng sisters didn't see him leaving, so he stopped there and didn't rehearse, and in desperation, he could only leave with a wry smile.
