Chapter 142: First Sight of King Qi
Zhang Sui passed through the teleportation array and rushed to Linzi, the capital of the king of Qi.
I found an inn in the prosperous area of Linzi, and when I had lunch at noon, I ordered a few small dishes and listened to the guests tell some interesting stories about the customs of Qi country.
Like the eldest prince of Qi died young.
The second son was sent to Weicheng by the King of Qi because of his loss of virtue.
The third son, Qi Jing, beat up a few civilians on the street yesterday.
The fourth son, Qi Tai, had an affair with a popular courtesan in a Qinglou.
……
There is not much discrepancy between this information and the intelligence.
After eating, Zhang Sui rushed to the Linzi County Guard.
In front of a building in the style of the Qi Kingdom, there stands a fence with a bulletin board attached to the wall. On the bulletin board, it is also written that the State of Qi recruited virtuous and talented celebrities from the Five Kingdoms as the emperors of the State of Qi to teach the princes and even the kings of Qi.
However, to Zhang Sui's surprise, it stands to reason that this should be a fat gap.
After all, the eldest prince of Qi who died young and the second prince who was sent out of the royal city could no longer be appreciated by the king of Qi.
Then, the few sons who remain in Linzi will be the future crown princes of Qi.
The emperor can have a good relationship with the crown prince, and he can even contact the current King of Qi, this kind of opportunity is destined for him to become a dragon and phoenix among people.
But in fact, when Zhang Sui found the Linzi County Guard, and the Linzi County Guard took Zhang Sui to the Qi State Zongzheng (an institution specifically responsible for managing the affairs of the royal family), Zhang Sui saw several officials from the Zongzheng Department begging an old man to stay.
"Emperor, Emperor, don't go!"
"Emperor, King Qi said, as long as you persist, several sons will definitely make progress!"
"Emperor, you are old and respectful, you are gone, what should we do?"
"Emperor, don't you know, under your teaching, several sons have made great progress!"
Several officials surrounded the old man, licking his face one by one, pleading.
The old man was furious and said, "This is still called making great progress? The old man has never seen such a stubborn person! Look at the wound on the old man's face, do you see it? ”
Zhang Sui stood beside him meaningfully, looking at the old man.
I saw that where the index finger of the old man's right hand was pointing, there was a finger-wide scar.
The old man glared at several officials, his eyes widened, and said, "This was stabbed with a knife by the third prince!" If the old man stays any longer, it is estimated that he will not be able to see the rising sun tomorrow! ”
"How so?" An official patted his chest and said, "Didn't King Qi already severely reprimand the third prince?" I believe that the third prince will be restrained and will not hurt the emperor again! ”
"You say you don't hurt if you don't hurt? Whoever believes this is an idiot! The old man turned blue with anger and pointed to his eyebrows.
Zhang Sui smiled dumbly, his eyebrows didn't even exist!
The old man suppressed his anger and said: "Seven days ago, when the third son, Qi Jing, shaved off the old man's eyebrows, the old man had already reported it to King Qi!" King Qi just reprimanded a few words, and then the old man was stabbed in the cheek with a knife by the third prince! This time, if the old man stays any longer, tomorrow the third son will take a knife and stab the old man in the heart! ”
"If you have a lot of money, you have to have a life to spend!" The old man sneered again and again, and said: "As for fame, the reputation of several sons has long been famous all over the world, and the old man doesn't dare to be poked in the backbone and say, it is a disciple taught by the old man Zhou Guo!" ”
Seeing that Zhang Sui was staring at the old man motionless, and seemed to be very interested in his words, the county guard hurriedly smiled and said, "This master, you still don't trust the words of the old master Zhou Guo too much. After all, when you are old, sometimes, you have long lost your enterprising spirit. ”
"Oh, really?" Zhang Sui smiled and shook his head.
After all, several officials from Zongzheng's department did not stop the old man from leaving, and several people stood together and sighed.
Seeing this, the county guard hurriedly walked up and said, "A few adults, Bai Su has found another master who wants to become the emperor's master. ”
The eyes of several officials lit up slightly, and only then did they notice Zhang Sui next to the county guard, and they couldn't help but be disappointed.
As if he hadn't seen it, Zhang Sui smiled and hugged his fists and said, "My name is Zhang Sui, and I want to become an emperor." ”
A middle-aged man with an eight-character beard glanced at Zhang Sui and said, "Zhang Sui? Look at how young you are. ”
"Twenty-four this year." Zhang Sui replied.
The middle-aged man snorted lightly and said, "Twenty-four? Most of them are still practicing at home, right? How many countries have you travelled to? How many mountains and rivers have you walked through? Or do you have an extraordinary talent in cultivation, comparable to the cold martial god of the Qin Kingdom? ”
"If I'm not mistaken, on the list of emperors you issued, there is no explanation that you must go to a few mountains and rivers and a few countries, right? I didn't say that you have to be a martial god-level person to come, right? To put it mildly, if I were really a martial god, do you think I would be willing to teach a few sons? ”
Zhang Sui's words were hard to listen to, but they made several officials in Zongzheng's department a little unable to talk one by one.
Not to mention the Martial God, even the average Martial King or even the Martial Sect, few people are willing to teach a few sons!
As for those literati who only read books, after being tortured by several sons, they didn't dare to come over.
Otherwise, King Qi would not have specifically stated on the list that he needs to have good skills.
"You are too young and your experience is too shallow, it's not that the official deliberately hit you, you really don't have the ability to act as the emperor of several sons." The middle-aged man frowned, and took one last look at Zhang Sui.
"Since you judge people by their appearance, then you just wait to see who else is willing to teach you a few sons of Qi Kingdom." Zhang Sui sneered.
This case is really big, and it is really no different from the top management of some companies in the 21st century.
"It seems that no matter what world you are in, there are always some high-ranking and powerful people who are above the top and boast of being extraordinary."
Zhang Sui hugged his fists at the county guard, turned around with a cold face and walked outside Zongzheng.
As soon as he walked a few steps, the middle-aged man hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute, since you are so confident, this official will give you a chance!" It's just that when the time comes, you will suffer yourself, and you can't blame others! ”
Zhang Sui turned his head and said with a smile: "How is that possible?" I really suffered a loss, which can only show that I am not capable, and I will not blame you. ”
"Hmph, this official is not afraid that you will blame others, but that you will suffer because you have not learned enough!" The middle-aged man waved his hand impatiently at the county guard, and said, "Okay, you can go, the official will take him to the palace, and the king will evaluate him." ”
As the middle-aged man from Zongzheng left Zongzheng and went to the palace of King Qi.
King Qi was dealing with government affairs, Zhang Sui and the middle-aged man waited for nearly an hour, and it was already dusk before they were summoned by King Qi.
In the Qianyuan Palace, where the King of Qi handles government affairs, the King of Qi and a rather bewitching woman are frolicking on the dragon chair.
As the slender and white fingers of the bewitching woman pinched a grape and put it on his red lips, King Qi pounced, and his big mouth covered the red lips of the bewitching woman, not knowing whether he was eating grapes or kissing.
The middle-aged man's face was swollen and red, and he lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound.
Zhang Sui also lowered his head slightly, glanced at the girls beside King Qi, and saw them all bowing their heads with indifferent expressions, obviously used to this situation.
Looking at the bewitching woman and the appearance of King Qi, a hint of coldness flashed in Zhang Sui's eyes.
This King of Qi is also so virtuous, he was a little hesitant before, but now, Zhang Sui secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Killing such a person to save Ah Ling is not a little burden in his heart.
King Qi and the bewitching woman hugged and frolicked on the dragon chair for a while, and the bewitching woman suddenly smiled and pointed at Zhang Sui and said, "King, isn't this the person who came to ask for the position of 'emperor'?" ”
