Chapter 415: Annexation to Western Chu

Qi Hall Li Sheng argued generously; Xiang Guoji wants to stay as a guest!

Li Shiqi's smile at this moment can be described as sinister, and it makes Qi Xiangtian Heng feel extremely uncomfortable. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Although he didn't find anything wrong, he vaguely felt that he had fallen into a trap.

"Qi Xiang really has a good memory, and he actually remembers that Zhao Di was captured by Han Xin, the marshal of our Han army. Then I have to ask again, the Han army attacked Zhao, so that the Zhao army returned to help. Does this count as helping Qi Guo? ”

Hearing Li Shiqi's question, King Qi and Qi Xiang were speechless. Although Han Xin's attack on Zhao did not intend to help Qi, it did indirectly remove the threat of Zhao Qi.

Seeing that the other party was silent, Li Shiqi continued: "Marshal Han Xin of our Han army, with 20,000 soldiers and horses, fought against the water, not afraid of dangers, and killed more than 100,000 Zhao troops. Therefore, its fundamental purpose was to protect the Qi State, which was fighting against Chu together, from the attack of the Zhao State. This is the sincerity of our Han army to the Qi army, and I believe that the king of Qi should understand. ”

Tian Heng was speechless after listening to Li Shiqi's words. Because he didn't believe that Han Xin attacked Zhao for the sake of Qi State, but he didn't know that Han King Zhang Liang needed herbs, so he couldn't refute it at all.

"Sir, you are in danger first, and you are also a good man. I don't know what you want? Let's just say it plainly! ”

Seeing that Tian Heng was already a little impatient, Li Shiqi still chose to carry out his plan step by step. Because the other party has been pulled by him, he doesn't want to be too anxious.

"King Qi, Qi Xiang! I want to talk about the current trend with the theory of duality. I don't know what His Royal Highness King Qi and Lord Qi Xiang think about today's troubled times?! ”

Hearing the other party's question again, Tian Heng no longer wanted to waste words with the other party. And King Qi faced Li Shiqi's question, but chose a simple response.

"Today, the princes are divided, and each has his own thoughts. Therefore, this king believes that we should gather our strength and wait for the situation! ”

Regarding King Qi's answer, Li Shiqi did not refute it. After the other party had finished speaking, he began to explain his opinion.

"What His Royal Highness the King of Qi said is extremely true. However, if you want to wait for the time, you must first know the situation. Today's dispute is nothing more than Xiang Yu and the princes! And among the princes, they are headed by the two kings of Han and Han! Therefore, to put it bluntly, the people of the world have to make a choice between Western Chu and Han Han. I wonder if King Qi agrees with Zaixia's opinion? ”

When Tian Heng heard this, he had already determined the purpose of Li Shiqi's coming. Although he also agrees that he should make a correct choice between Xiang Yu and Liu Bang and Zhang Liang. But in order to extinguish the other party's prestige, he immediately said in a deep voice: "There is some truth in what the gentleman said. You seem to have forgotten a little bit though! Although the battle in the world is between Western Chu and Han Han, Xiang Yu's strength is the greatest after all. And although Han and Han joined forces, they could not defeat Western Chu. Therefore, the prime minister believes that it should still be biased towards Western Chu. ”

After hearing Tian Heng's remarks, Li Shiqi immediately expressed regret and sighed. He said in disappointment: "How ridiculous is what Qi Xiang said?!" In terms of strength, the rebel army would not have defeated the tyrannical Qin with a mighty and powerful army! Therefore, although Xiang Yu is real and powerful, it is only a flash in the pan after all. Those who can really win the world should be the ones who win the hearts of the people! ”

Seeing that Li Shiqi said that Xiang Yu was short-lived, Tian Heng was immediately stunned on the spot. And those who can hear the hearts of the people win the world, so he asked curiously: "Those who win the hearts of the people?" Since Mr. thinks that the words of the true appearance are ridiculous, then let's talk about who the hearts of the people in this world belong to!? ”

While Tian Heng asked, Qi Wang Tian Guang was also looking forward to the other party's answer. And after seeing the actions of the two, Li Shiqi replied without hesitation: "Return to Han!" ”

Li Shiqi's answer did not surprise Tian Heng, after all, as a Han envoy, it was naturally impossible for him to come from afar to shout for others. However, Tian Heng remained silent at this time, because he wanted to hear what the other party had to say.

"Since the trend of the world has reached a consensus, if the king of Qi has a heart, he should start to choose. Although that Xiang Yu was powerful, he could not tolerate the Qi country. Then the only choice left for Qi is Han. I believe that there is no need to say more about this truth, King Qi and Qi Xiang should understand. My Han King often sighs that he has no strengths, but in the next opinion, there are a few things that are far superior to that Xiang Yu. First, the Han King Kuanren never killed innocents indiscriminately, even when he invaded Chu some time ago, he did not commit any crime against Chu Minqiu. That's why the hearts of the people will turn to my king! Second, the king of Han cherishes talents, and only talents are used. Marshal Han was originally a halberd under Xiang Yu's account, but when he came to the Han Dynasty, he was promoted to generalissimo. It is precisely because of this that Marshal Han has the opportunity to show his skills. This completely shows that King Han's ability to recognize people is a hundred times better than that feather! Third, the King of Han is not stingy, all those who are meritorious have always been rewarded and gifted, and for those who are honest and like-minded, they are also kind, such as Zhang Er, the former king of Changshan, who surrendered, didn't he get the help of the King of Han and became the current King of Zhao? ! As for Xiang Yu, I believe there is no need to say more, because King Qi, you have a deep understanding. The advantages of the rest of the Han kings are really countless, but in the next opinion, only these three points are a thousand times better than Xiang Yu. β€œ

When King Qi heard Li Shiqi's words, he immediately fell into contemplation, and at this moment he had begun to slowly waver, because the other party's words were all facts.

"Hirono-kun is really eloquent, but you seem to have forgotten one thing. Han and South Korea united to fight against Western Chu, why should we go to Han instead of South Korea? As far as I know, King Han seems to have the qualities you just mentioned. ”

Tian Heng didn't really have the heart to vote for Han, just because he wanted to see if there were any dislikes and contradictions between Han and Han, and he also wanted to use this to combat Li Shiqi's arrogance, so he threw out this problem.

Han Han's choice seems simple, but if he answers carelessly, he will become the laughing stock of others. However, Li Shiqi had already expected that the other party would be so difficult, so as soon as Tian Heng's words fell, he laughed loudly: "The prime minister's mind is really delicate, and I admire it very much." King Han is indeed a genius in the world, and he dares to assert that if he is the emperor, he will be immortal. It's a pity that you only know one of them, but you don't know the other. Although King Han has the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes and the world, he has the heart of the game world. This is not an apocryphal fabrication, even King Han himself often talks about traveling in the world. Although he is a Hanchen, he was recommended by the king of Han. Therefore, getting acquainted with King Han was much earlier than King Han. The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, and he should do something earth-shattering, and those who can give up their merits after they succeed can assert that there is only him in the world Zhang Zifang, the king of Han! Therefore, it will be proposed that King Qi join Han in the future, because Han Han is a family today, and he is also a family in the future。。。。。。 ”

Li Shiqi did not clearly explain why he couldn't vote for South Korea, but Qi Wang Tian Guang and Qi Xiang Tian Heng were not stupid, they had already heard the meaning of the words.

The Qi Palace was silent at this time, from the monarch to the courtiers, all of them were silent in thought.

Looking at Li Shiqi, who was still standing tall in the palace, King Qi was a little undecided for a while. And Tian Heng, after weighing it again and again, decided to stabilize the other party first.

"Guangye-kun deserves to be a famous man in the world, but in a hurry, it is inconvenient for my king to make a decision. It is better to ask your side to stay first, and then we will consider it in the long run, as long as your words are true, we will naturally give you a satisfactory answer, after all, the trend of the world is indeed as your words are. ”

Tian Heng did not directly agree to the other party, but his words were obviously biased towards agreeing with Li Shiqi.

Smelling that the other party already had a heart, Li Shiqi was immediately overjoyed. At this moment, he also knew that it was not appropriate to be in a hurry, so he hurriedly saluted King Qi and the others, and expressed his willingness to stay.

After the envoy in front of the palace of Qi was over, the king of Qi immediately ordered people to prepare a place to live for him, and specially ordered a good life to entertain him. After the other party and the courtiers left one after another, he started a discussion with Prime Minister Tian Heng.

"Prime Minister, in your opinion, is it credible to eat his words?"

Tian Heng, as a member of the Qi clan, is naturally very concerned about the future of the Qi country. Hearing that King Qi asked him, he hurriedly clenched his fists and replied: "Great King, that Li eats his tongue and speaks sharply, although it disgusts his subordinates, but he really tells the truth. Western Chu has previously contributed to the immortality of our Qi country, and it must be coveting our grain and grass. Because originally there was still Sanqin, the granary of Guanzhong, in Western Chu, but now it has completely fallen into the hands of the king of Hanzhong. Although we can rely on him through this, we are only raising tigers for trouble. On the other hand, the Han and Han coalition forces, although they have lost a few battles, their strength has not been damaged, and now almost all the lands of the western princes are in their hands, which is enough for them to have the ability to fight against Western Chu! Based on the above points, His Majesty feels that it is indeed a good choice to join Han, but the king does not need to be in a hurry, because if we are in a hurry, then how can we make Han Han pay attention to us?! And once the news leaks out, that Xiang Yu is likely to be angry and take the lead in destroying us. β€œ

Qi Xiangtian Heng's remarks won the heart of King Qi. In fact, in his heart, he already had the intention of joining the Han.

"The prime minister is worthy of being the pillar of my Qi country, with you, the widow is worry-free. Since you also support the defection and feel that this matter should not be rushed, how should we deal with it? ”

Seeing that King Qi agreed with his opinion, Tian Heng fell into deep thought. But only a moment later, he hurriedly replied in a low voice: "My lord, according to your subordinates' opinion, it is better to have a good relationship with Na Li Shiqi for the time being. I heard that King Han and King Han both attach great importance to this person, so we might as well treat him as a guest. In this way, it can stabilize its heart and hint at the intention of our army. Second, we can also take advantage of this to delay for a while and wait to see the situation. It's best to wait for Han Xin of the Zhao Kingdom to have the strength, and we are making a decision, because only in this way can we ensure our safety to the greatest extent! ”

Hearing Tian Heng's plan, King Qi immediately took the case. After he stood up, he immediately instructed the chamberlain to prepare a banquet, and at the same time sent someone to invite him to eat.

--------

On the third day after Li Shiqi entered the capital of Qi State, the news secretly spread to Fan Zeng in Western Chu. And when Fan Zeng heard that the Han army had sent an envoy, he was not annoyed by this, but showed a smug smile.

Zhou Yi was very puzzled when he saw Fan Zeng's unusual behavior, but before he could ask, Fan Zeng suddenly got up and said, "Come on, change clothes!" The old man wants to enter the palace!! ”

Hearing that Fan Zeng was about to enter the Chu Palace, Zhou Yi hurriedly ordered someone to prepare. When everything was ready, he asked in a low voice, "Strategist, are you planning to tell the overlord this news?!" ”

Seeing Zhou Yixiang's actions, Fan Zeng smiled casually and nodded, and at the same time gently breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "The old man finally waited for this Han envoy to arrive!" Now, the old man is going to force him to completely belong to my Xichu!! (To be continued.) )
