Chapter 31 The Plans of the Qi State
The Qin envoy's words were willing and humble, which was enough to make the king of Qi Jianhe and Hou Sheng happy, however, there was something that made them even more happy, and they only heard the Qin envoy say: "The Qin envoy is here, and he will also send a generous gift to the king of Qi." ”
"Generous gifts?" Qi Wangjian was so shocked that his eyes almost fell to the ground.
For Qi Wangjian, who had been frightened for several days, it was already a great blessing that Qin State could not attack Qi State, where did he think that Qin State would also send a generous gift, and he would not be surprised.
"Huh!" Hou Sheng let out a burst of happy laughter, because he thought Qin Guo was interesting enough. He can be the prime minister, and he has the power of Qin Yiren, and now, Qin sent an envoy to send a generous gift, can he not be happy?
A heavy footstep sounded, and I saw a team of Qi soldiers carrying more than a dozen large boxes in. These soldiers had some difficulty walking, and they didn't have to think about it to know that the gifts in the box were not light, and Qi Wangjian's eyes were hot.
The soldier came closer, put down the box, and bowed off.
Qin Envoy took a step forward and opened a box, a piece of jewelry, the box was full of treasures, each piece was a rare treasure, and it was rare to see in the world.
Qi Wangjian is not good at governing the country and the people, when it comes to fun, it is a first-class mastery, with his old and spicy eyes, he can naturally recognize it at a glance, these treasures are rare in the world, his eyes are hot, he can't be humble, he stepped forward quickly, this touch, that caressing, a face of joy.
Hou Sheng followed closely behind, his eyes were also hot, and he wanted to keep it all for himself. Hou Sheng has no talent to govern the country and the people, he just has to hollow out his mind to have fun, and he knows a lot about the treasures in the world.
"These are the treasures of the Wei Palace, right?" Qi Wangjian's vision is good, and he recognized at a glance that these are all treasures of the Wei Palace.
"King Qi has a good eye!" The Qin envoy was amazed. looks like he admires his five bodies. said with a smile: "These are all captured by Great Qin from the Wei Palace. King Qi knows. In addition to Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou, the monarchs of the Wei Dynasty were mostly masters who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, they either loved to play, or loved women, or were good at hunting, and these monarchs collected a lot of treasures. ”
"Hey! Wei has such a faint monarch, how can it not lose the country? Qi Wangjian nodded heavily, with great contempt.
Look at him like that. It seems that the monarchs of the Wei Kingdom deserve to die, but he doesn't know that he is also a faint monarch who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.
Qi Wangjian and Hou Sheng Junchen were happy, and they didn't let the Qin envoy do it, and opened these boxes by themselves, each box was a rare treasure in the world, but the two of them were happy, grinning and happy, as if this was the most precious thing in the world.
Qin Envoy saw it in his eyes. Secretly despised it: "Although these are high-grade treasures, they are just dung in the eyes of Daqin." For Daqin. The most precious thing is not the treasures, but the talents who govern the country and the people. You don't pay attention to talents, you only like precious goods, and you can't succeed if you want not to lose the country. ”
The Qin people were simple, and the kings of the past dynasties were very thrifty, and used every money they could get for conscription, rather than pleasure, for the Qin state, talent was the most important, and gold and silver treasures were not so important.
"No merit, dare to ask the Qin envoy to give such a generous gift, but there is something to do?" After admiring the old man for a long time, Qi Wangjian was a little more interested, and asked the Qin envoy.
"King Qi's words are serious." The Qin envoy smiled, took out Wang Qian's handwriting, and said, "This is the general's handwriting, and I invite the king of Qi to look at it." ”
"Oh. The General's Letters. King Qi hurriedly took it, unfolded it and took a look, he was very happy, and said with a smile: "So very good, so very good!" ”
As he spoke, he handed Wang Qian's letter to Hou Sheng and said, "Prime Minister, you take a look first." ”
Hou Sheng took it in his hand, and when he took a closer look, he was also overjoyed.
In his letter, Wang Jian reaffirmed the brotherly alliance of Qin and Qi, and asked Wang Jian of Qi to send important ministers to discuss the return of the Qi lands seized by Wei.
Last time, in order to punish the Qi State, Qin Yiren ordered the four countries to join forces to attack Qi and took away a lot of Qi land and cities, which made Qi Wangjian angry, if he could take it back, it would be a great joy, and he couldn't help but be happy.
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go." Hou Sheng immediately asked for help.
This is a great thing, as long as the victory goes, it will be successful, and the great credit of this day will be safe, and there is no way to win after it.
"Well, there is Prime Minister Lao Cheng in this matter." Qi Wangjian readily agreed.
In this way, Hou Sheng cleaned up a little, followed the Qin envoy and set off, and rushed to see Wang Qian.

Xianyang, King Qin's Palace, upper study.
Qin Yiren was dealing with official business, Huang Shigong walked in quickly, saluted Qin Yiren, handed the parchment in his hand to Qin Yiren, and said, "Your Majesty, news from Chu State." The king of Chu listened to Xiang Yan's plan and sent 200,000 troops to seek a plan. Once the plan fails, it is necessary to fish in troubled waters and reap the benefits. ”
Qin Yiren took a look, raised his eyebrows, and said, "This Xiang Yan really has some ability, but he actually ruined the big thing of the widow and failed to prevent the intervention of the Chu State." Well, in order to accomplish this, Dun Qiao and Yao Jia spent a lot of money to buy the family of Chu State. ”
"This Xiang Yan is really a talent, and with such a unique vision, this person will definitely become the biggest obstacle to Great Qin's annihilation." Huang Shigong was a little worried.
"It's okay, no matter how much he can, it's useless, after all, the state of Chu is rotten, and he can't support it alone." Xiang Yan was indeed the biggest obstacle on the road to Qin's unification, and in history, he was the only general who caused Qin Shi Huang to suffer defeat. It's a pity that the state of Chu was too rotten, he was alone and could not support it, and was finally defeated by Wang Jian and lost his life.
"Yes." Huang Shigong nodded and said: "Looking at the world, although the Chu State is big, it is the most corrupt, and the big family controls the government, even the King of Chu is difficult to do." ”
"Although Xiang Yan's plan is good, there is one thing that he cannot control, that is, Qi Wangjian is a faint monarch, and he will definitely fall into Great Qin's plan, and Great Qin will destroy Qi very quickly, and when he understands it, the general trend has gone." Qin Yiren said coldly: "Send a decree to Wang Yan, if Xiang Yan dares to come, he will be beaten with a river of blood, and the corpses will accumulate like a mountain, it is best to kill Xiang Yan." ”

On the border of Qi and Wei, in front of the camp of the Qin army, the general Wang Jian led a group of Qin generals to welcome Hou Sheng.
Gokatsu got out of the car. When he saw Wang Jian coming to greet him in person. I can't help but be overjoyed. How many people can be welcomed by the generals of the Qin State, looking at the world? He couldn't help but be pleased.
"I've seen the General!" Hou Sheng hurried over and saluted Wang Qian, very excited.
"Wang Jian has seen the prime minister." Wang Jian rushed to the back and saw the courtesy, and the salute was extremely respectful.
"Huh!" Wang Qian's etiquette was thoughtful and respectful, which made Hou Sheng extremely useful, and let out a burst of laughter.
"Prime Minister. Please. Wang Jian asked sideways.
"General, please." Hou Sheng smiled and entered the Chinese military tent with Wang Qian.
After entering the Chinese military tent, Wang Jian invited Hou Sheng to sit down and ordered someone to bring tea.
Hou Sheng couldn't wait to ask: "Dare to ask the general, when will the land of Daqi be delivered?" ”
Wang Jian sighed secretly, such a person who has no city government and can't hold his breath is also worthy of being the prime minister, there is really no one in the Qi country.
"Prime Minister. Your eyes are only staring at the loss of Qi country, this is too small, right? Wang Jian did not answer positively.
Hou Sheng's heart sank straight down. His face changed greatly, and he was a little frightened: "General, you won't return the land of Great Qi, right?" ”
"Huh." Wang Jian let out a burst of laughter and said, "Prime Minister, Da Qin is a good talker, how can he not return it?" ”
"What does the general mean......" Hou Sheng didn't understand the meaning of Wang Qian's words.
"Prime Minister, returning the lost land of the Qi State is not a thing, as long as Daqin says a word." Wang Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "However, this can't be returned to Qi Guo in vain." After all, this was taken by Great Qin from the Wei State, and the Qi State did not spend a single soldier, so it was taken back for nothing, wouldn't Great Qin be laughed at by the people of the world? ”
There is some truth to that. These lost lands, the Qi State does not have the strength to regain them, and it stands to reason that this should be regarded as the land of the Qin State. If the Qin State is returned in vain like this, it will definitely be laughed at by the people of the world.
"That'...... How can the general return the lost territory of Daqi? Hou Sheng wanted to refute, but he couldn't find a suitable reason, because Wang Qian's words were very reasonable.
"If the Qi State and Great Qin form a brotherly alliance, this matter will be easy to do." Wang Jian said with a smile.
"What's so hard about that? Great Qi and Qin have long been brothers, or brothers for a hundred years. Hou Sheng couldn't help laughing, this matter was not a little difficult for Qi Guo.
Since the rise of the Qin State, the land of Shandong has been fighting against Qin, and the Qin State at that time was allied with the Qi State, and Zhang Yi's "Lianheng" policy was to take the Qi State as an ally. Moreover, the two countries of Qin and Qi are far apart, there is no direct conflict of interest, and this brotherly alliance is concluded for decades. Although there are repetitions, it is not large.
"Very good! Very good! Wang Jian lightly struck his hands together and exclaimed: "With the prime minister's words, I am relieved." Prime Minister, if Qi can promise Great Qin one thing, Qi will return the lost land immediately. ”
"General, please." Hou Sheng said busily.
"If the Qi State and the Great Qin join forces to attack Chu, what does it matter if the Qi State returns the lost land to the Qi State?" Wang Qian's eyes flashed, and his expression was mighty.
"Vachu?" Hou Sheng was taken aback, this was too unexpected for him not to be surprised.
"That's right, it's Vachu." Wang Qian's body leaned towards Hou Sheng, and said: "The prime minister knows, Great Qin has attacked the Chu State for a hundred years, and it can only hit the Chu State hard, but cannot destroy the Chu State, can you know why?" That's because the state of Chu is too big, it is difficult to destroy the state of Chu by relying on the Great Qin alone, if the state of Qi can send troops, the state of Chu will be destroyed. ”
At that time, everyone knew that the Qin State had suppressed the Chu State for hundreds of years and seized a large area of land and cities in the Chu State, but it could not destroy the Chu State, and the reason was that the Chu State had a vast area, and it could still run if it could not be defeated.
If the State of Qi and the State of Qin joined forces to attack Chu, the State of Chu would definitely be in a catastrophe.
"The matter of joining forces is very good, but what good can Daqi do?" Hou Sheng's heart is also alive, if he can really unite with the Qin State to attack Chu, it is very likely to destroy the Chu State. It's just that he has to get enough benefits, and said: "It's not enough to return the lost land of the Qi country." ”
"Prime Minister, Qi Chu is a feud, so Qi doesn't want to take this opportunity to take revenge?" Wang Jian asked with a smile.
"Yes! But this was not enough to make the whole army move. "Hou Sheng still wants to take advantage.
"If the Qi State sends troops, Great Qin can meet the Qi State, and whoever occupies the land will be his." The bait thrown by Wang Jian was large enough.
"Really?" Hou Sheng's eyes were hot. (To be continued......)
