Wang Liang took Li Yao to the door of the main hall, bowed down and said, "Master Hou, King Qi is inside, I'll go down first!" ”

Li Yao patted Wang Liang on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then you can contact your friends first and hand over the list to me as soon as possible!" ”

Wang Liang nodded and said, "Don't worry, Master Hou, I will definitely hand over the list to you as soon as possible!" ”

Li Yao entered the main hall, hurriedly walked in front of King Qi, bowed down and said, "Son, see your father!" ”

King Qi raised his hand and said, "No courtesy!" ”

At this time, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom on the side asked: "King Qi, presumably this is Ninghou Li Yao!" ”

Li Yao looked at the man in front of him who was about twenty years old, dressed in a Confucian robe, with an arrogant face, and asked, "I haven't asked you yet?" ”

The envoy of the Jin State said: "I am the envoy sent by the Jin State to the Qi State, named Cheng Peng!" ”

Li Yao thought to himself, "He's a messenger, how could he ask my name like this?" Could it be that there is a big reason! ”

At this time, there was an older man next to the young man, and said: "Master Hou, I am the deputy envoy of the envoy to Qi this time, named Hu Xing'an!" ”

Li Yao looked at the slightly older man who was quite respectful, so he nodded, indicating that he knew!

At this time, King Qi said: "Envoy of the Jin Kingdom, you take a seat first, and then you are talking about the purpose of this trip!" ”

Cheng Peng and Hu Xing'an both took their seats in turn, and Li Yao also found a seat and sat down, at this time Hu Xing'an stood up and said: "King Qi, the purpose of our trip is to ask for nearly a million peasants who have been lost from our Jin Kingdom!" ”

King Qi pretended to be surprised and said, "Deputy envoy of the Jin Kingdom, ask me for the millions of lost peasants of the Jin Kingdom?" What does that mean? ”

Hu Xing'an said lightly: "Last year, because of the drought in my Jin Kingdom and the invasion of the Turks, most of the people who fled the famine poured into the Qi Kingdom, and the Ning Hou in front of me took away nearly a million of our people, so we came here to ask for these people this time!" ”

Li Yao said: "This envoy, you can eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense, what evidence do you have to prove that the people I took away belong to your Jin Kingdom!" ”

At this time, Cheng Peng said coldly: "Your Dingbian County of Qiguo is next to our country, the people who fled the famine have gone there, and you have taken nearly a million people from Dingbian County, everyone in the world knows about this, do you still want to cheat?" ”

Li Yao said with a smile: "Yes, it is true that I took away nearly a million people from Dingbian County, but what I took away are all the people of our Qi country, if you don't believe it, you can go to our household department to check if there are any people in the Jin Kingdom who have been sealed underground!" ”

Cheng Peng said to King Qi at this time: "I ask King Qi to let Hubu Shangshu come!" ”

King Qi nodded and said, "That's right!" ”

After a while, Guo Chenghua, the head of the household, came, Guo Chenghua saw Li Yao and King Qi, and said respectively: "I've seen King Qi, I've seen Lord Hou!" ”

King Qi said at this time: "Chenghua, these two people next to you are envoys of the Jin Kingdom, and they are asking us for millions of people from the Jin Kingdom, do you know what's going on?" ”

Guo Chenghua shook his head and said, "Weichen doesn't know about this!" ”

Cheng Peng immediately said: "Ninghou Li Yao took away millions of people from Dingbian County, do you know about this?" ”

Guo Chenghua said: "Envoy of the Jin Kingdom, Ning Hou did take away nearly a million people from Dingbian County last year, but those are the people of our Qi Kingdom!" ”

Cheng Peng said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, where did you get a million people from a small Dingbian County!" ”

Guo Chenghua said lightly: "Those people are indeed the population of my Jin Kingdom, this is recorded!" ”

At this time, Hu Xing'an said: "Hubu Shangshu, these records are all recorded by your Qi country itself, is it a little inappropriate to use them here!" ”

Guo Chenghua said with a smile: "This deputy envoy, the people of my Qi country are not recorded by my Qi country itself, is it possible that it is still recorded by your Jin country?" ”

Hu Xing'an said: "If you say so, our Jin Kingdom does have a record of millions of people fleeing to your Qi Kingdom!" ”

At this time, the king of Qi spoke: "Since there is a record in your Jin Kingdom that some people have fled to our Qi Kingdom, why don't you stop it!" Let them flee to our country, and now these people of yours are lost, but you come to us to ask for it, what is the reason? ”

Li Yao watched his father speak, and knew that the matter had been settled, so he didn't intervene at all and let his father solve this matter!

At this time, Cheng Peng said: "That's because we were invaded by the Turks at that time, and we were powerless to stop these people!" ”

King Qi said angrily: "Since you are unable to manage these people, then don't manage them anymore, it is unreasonable for you to come to our Qi country to ask for these people, and the people have lost, you should take the initiative to look for them, instead of asking others for them!" ”

At this time, Cheng Peng looked at King Qi playing tricks like this, and said angrily: "The people were lost in the territory of your Qi country, we don't ask you for it, who do we ask for it?" ”

Hu Xing'an saw Cheng Peng talking to King Qi like this, and hurriedly tugged on Cheng Peng's sleeve, and whispered: "Second prince, be cautious, be cautious!" ”

Li Yao saw that Hu Xing'an called Cheng Peng the second prince, and thought to himself: "It turns out that this person is a prince, no wonder his face was so arrogant just now!" ”

When King Qi heard Cheng Peng's words, he also said angrily: "As the envoy of the Jin Kingdom, you actually speak to this king like this, do you still have this king in your eyes?" Get out of the palace now, you must leave my country tomorrow!" ”

Cheng Peng just wanted to refute King Qi's words, but was quickly stopped by Hu Xing'an, Hu Xing'an said: "King Qi is angry, we will retire, we will retire!" ”

After speaking, he pulled Cheng Peng and walked outside the palace!

Walking out of the palace, Cheng Peng shook off Hu Xing'an's hand and said angrily: "Why did you stop me just now, they just want to be a scoundrel!" ”

Hu Xingan smiled bitterly: "Second prince, you lost the people in your country, this was originally our unreasonableness, but now you are still so strong, it is indeed too disgusting to King Qi, and now King Qi has asked us to go abroad tomorrow, if we are not convinced, we will have no chance at all!" ”

When Cheng Peng heard Hu Xing'an's words, he secretly thought to himself, if he was really expelled from the country tomorrow, there would really be no chance at all! So he asked, "Then what do you say?" ”

Hu Xing'an said: "I can only use bitter meat tricks, it's winter, let's wait outside the palace in single clothes, and then use the Jin envoy group who came this time to build momentum, so that the people of the national capital know that we know that we are wrong, at this time, King Qi has to let us enter the palace again even for his own face!" ”

Cheng Peng looked at the small snowflakes floating outside and said, "But now it's so cold outside, if you only wear single clothes, your body will freeze!" ”

Hu Xing'an said: "Don't be afraid, prince, I have a set of close-fitting fluffy underwear there, and when you wear it, it will resist a large part of the cold!" ”

Cheng Peng nodded and said, "Then do it, and immediately let the Jin envoy group start building momentum!" ”
