Chapter 391: The Man with Dry Bones in the Grave
"Wu Hou, the old man was born as a Qi person, and died as a Qi ghost."
Yan Ying replied unhurriedly: "The so-called food of the king, bear the worries of the king!" ”
"Now when the country of Qi is in danger, although the old decay is already a rare year, if the wind and candles are in their last years, they dare not forget their identity."
When Qing Ji heard this, he just laughed it off.
At this time, Tingwei Bo, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but stand up and sneered at Yan Ying: "Yan Zi, if you remember correctly, Yan Zi has one in seventy?" ”
"Exactly."
"With all due respect, at the age of Yanzi, you can live in peace and enjoy the joy of your children and grandchildren, so why do you need to run around? Could it be that no one cares about Qi country? ”
The angle of the questioning was very tricky.
This is clearly satirizing Yan Ying's old bones, and he still has to do the things of diplomatic relations.
Yan Ying was neither humble nor arrogant, and asked lightly: "Who is the foot?" ”
"I'm Captain Wu Guoting, Bo Yu!"
Bo said proudly.
Hearing this, Yan Ying chuckled and shook his head.
"What are you laughing at?"
"The old man is just laughing, a huge Wu country, no one? What is the official position of the court lieutenant? ”
Yan Ying squinted his eyes and said, "As far as the old man knows, the court lieutenant of the Wu State is equivalent to the great priest. He is one of the six kings, and is in charge of the three canons and five punishments, that is, the affairs of the prison. ”
"With such a face, I'm afraid that I can't be cautious, if there is no Wu Hou behind the spur, I'm afraid that he will be a cool official and a corrupt official?"
As soon as he heard this, Bo Yu suddenly became angry, pointed at Yan Ying and scolded: "Yan Ying, you are less bloody and spewing people!" I have always acted above board, with a clear conscience, how dare you slander? ”
"Stand down, Bo Woo."
"Yui!"
was scolded by Qingji, Bo Yu sat down reluctantly, and glared at Yan Ying viciously.
This guy is really breathless!
Looking at Bo Biao like this, Qing Ji couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
originally wanted to give Yan Ying a dismissal, but who knew that Bo Yu would actually plant himself and bring humiliation on himself?
However, Yan Ying is Yan Ying in the end.
The sword is not old!
In fact, Yan Ying is right, Bo Bi is born like a corrupt official, greedy and greedy, but Qing Ji beats Bo Bi behind his back from time to time.
Bo Yi can restrain a lot, and loyally do things for Qingji.
As for some of the money that Bo Yu occasionally greedy for, the amount is not large, and he is always very measured in greed for ink, so Qingji does not care about it.
Like this kind of thing, Qingji opened one eye and closed one eye and passed!
"Yan Zizhi is smart and witty, can speak well, no less than the past, and few people admire."
Qingji praised.
"Wu Hou praised."
Yan Yingyun said lightly: "Marquis Wu, the old man made Wu this time, to ask Marquis Wu, when will you fulfill the covenant and send troops to attack Jin together with my Qi country?" ”
"Hahahaha, Yan Zi laughed."
Qingji said slowly: "The widow is never a person who has no faith in his word. The previous few times, it was delayed because our Wu State was in the south to conquer Baiyue, and there were no soldiers to fight in the country. ”
"Hearing that the princes' allied forces were in full force, the widow gave up continuing the expedition and transferred the troops from the south back to the country."
"Presumably, when Yan Zi came, he had already seen the traces of the soldiers, horses, grains and grass of my Wu country going north inside and outside Jinling?"
Yan Ying was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Wu Hou, forgive the old man for being blunt, Wu Hou is such a cover-up approach. can hide it from others, but it can't hide from old age. ”
"Does Wu Hou really have the heart to save Qi Ye? Wu Guo's battle with such fanfare, I'm afraid it won't be able to scare the Jin people! ”
After a pause, Yan Ying looked sad again, and said: "Now, the coalition of princes led by the Jin people, more than 100,000 horses, has come to the city. Linzi is in danger, Qi is in danger, doesn't Wu Hou hear the truth that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold? ”
"If Linzi is broken, if the Qi country is dead, then the next step for the Jin people must be to step on the Jianghuai River and drink the horse river, where will the Wu State go at that time?"
Yan Ying is clearly alarmist.
Not to mention whether the Jin State has such great ambitions and appetites, the Yangtze River moat is an insurmountable barrier for the Jin people's chariots and horses!
"Yanzi, please be relieved."
Qingji said with a pleasant face: "Since Jiang Taigong, the Qi country has enjoyed the national honor for more than 500 years and has won the hearts of the people. The Jin people took advantage of the military revolution and gained the upper hand for a while, and did not dare to have the ambition to destroy Qi. ”
"The widow has sent envoys to the Song, Lu, and Wei countries at the same time, and invited them to attack the Jin army together, if it succeeds, the siege of Linzi can be solved, and the Qi country can turn the crisis into safety, and even turn defeat into victory!"
Qingji's words are good, but Yan Ying doesn't know that Qingji really doesn't want to send troops?
Whether it is the state of Wu, or the state of Song, Lu, or Wei, they cannot tolerate the destruction of the state of Qi.
However, when it was time to really send troops, they were all frightened by the might of the Jin army, looking forward and backward, each with a ghost!
In their opinion, why not end this war that has little to do with them through diplomatic relations?
Yan Ying's heart was also helpless.
When the Marquis of Qi accepted Qingji's invitation and was respected as Uncle Fang on the Xue Di Alliance, Yan Ying wrote more than once, hoping that the Marquis of Qi would give up the so-called overlord and not compete with the Jin State.
However, Qi Hou and Wang Ba ate the scales and were determined to dominate!
"That being the case, the old man is in Jinling, waiting for good news."
Yan Ying slowly stood up and said.
"Good!"
Qingji set his eyes on Kong Qiu's body again, and said: "Daxing order, you must properly settle Yanzi, clothing, food, housing and transportation, all under the system of the secretary." ”
"Minister, obey the king's orders!"
Kong Qiu immediately agreed, and then left the Zide Hall with Yan Ying.
Looking at Yan Ying, who was drifting away, Qingji's heart was embarrassed.
Yan Zi is already dying, and he is about to run out of oil and dry up.
However, such a person is still running for the rise and fall of the Qi country!
Yan Ying successively served as the Duke of Qiling, the Duke of Zhuang, and the Duke of Jing, and served as an assistant for more than 50 years.
He was known for his political foresight, diplomatic skills, and simplicity, as well as his intelligence and wit, and his eloquence.
Auxiliary national politics, repeatedly admonished the monarch of Qi State.
Externally, he was both flexible and principled, and he was not humiliated when he went abroad, defending the national character and national prestige of Qi.
Popular idioms such as the sage of internal help, shoulder to shoulder, orange into orange, a thousand worries, a thousand worries, a thousand worries, sweat into rain, two peaches kill three soldiers, etc., are all related to Yan Ying.
"Zixu, Bo Xu, the widow wants to get a son, how can you teach the widow?"
Qingji said suddenly.
As soon as he heard this, Bo Yu couldn't help frowning, got up and said, "King, please forgive the minister, Yan Ying is just an old horseman, and he won't live for a few years." ”
"No matter how strong Yan Yingzhi's talent is, it will be difficult to serve the king and serve my Wu country."
"Besides, Yan Ying has always been honest and honest, with clean sleeves and a clean air, and he is upright, and he must not be moved by wealth, fame and fortune."
"How can a person who is about to become a dry bone in the grave like this turn his back on the Qi State and turn to my Wu State when he is coming?"
