In Handan City, in the Pingyuan Jun's Mansion, on top of a small table in the backyard pavilion, the small red clay stove is slowly bubbling with blue flames, and the clear spring water is bubbling in the small ding.

Pingyuanjun, who was sitting with his back to the beautiful scenery, was unconscious, scooped up half a scoop of water from the water bowl beside him, and slowly poured it into the small tripod of boiling water.

"Plain-kun." Just when the spring water in the ding died down, a small man dressed as a subordinate appeared in front of Pingyuan Jun.

"The guest has arrived." The little guy clasped his hands into fists and saluted slightly, and then moved out of the way, and a man in a gorgeous robe instantly appeared in front of Pingyuanjun.

Pingyuan Jun looked up and saw who it was not Wei Guoxin Lingjun!

"Pingyuan-kun is so Yaxing!" Xin Lingjun looked at Pingyuanjun and smiled, and then stepped forward to salute and said, "Beautiful scenery hot tea, the weather is cool and autumn!"

Hearing this, Pingyuanjun also looked at Xinlingjun with a smile on his face, and said, "It's ten thousand styles, and it's not enough for friends."

Without waiting for Xinlingjun to react, Pingyuanjun immediately straightened up, saluted Xinlingjun, and said, "Your Excellency, please take a seat."

Xinlingjun didn't see it, and after bowing slightly in return, he sat down opposite Pingyuanjun.

When Xinlingjun took his seat, he found that the position he was sitting in was the best place to enjoy the scenery of the pond in the backyard, but what was placed in front of Xinlingjun was a dry empty lamp.

Obviously, this is a gesture of hospitality!

After contacting himself and handing over the name card in the gatehouse, he was taken to the pavilion in the backyard, which deepened Xinlingjun's suspicions.

However, he abandoned most of the mission and galloped all the way, except for General Lian Po, he did not contact anyone, how could Pingyuanjun know that he would come?

In a moment of surprise, the spring water on the side was boiling again.

Pingyuanjun unhurriedly picked up the white silk beside him, held Xiao Ding's handle, and then tilted his arm slightly, and the clear spring water instantly fell into the teapot on the table like the waterfall falling.

Almost instantly, the warm spring water washed away the crumpled tea leaves in the teapot.

Between tossing up and down, the shriveled tea leaves absorbed the taste of the spring water, stretched lazily, and a touch of spring greenery immediately bloomed completely in that square inch of land.

Xinlingjun, who was still in doubt, couldn't help but be attracted by this scene.

"A new way of eating tea that my king has ordered." While looking at Xinlingjun's appearance, Pingyuan-jun said with a smile, "Compared to before, it's much simpler." (The Warring States already has a saying about eating tea, but it's not very clear how to brew it, don't care.) ）

"This road is the simplest reason." Xinlingjun sighed: "In autumn, there is the color of spring and summer, what an interesting thing!"

"Fun is secondary." Pingyuanjun continued to laugh, and when he saw that the water in the pot was already eight points full, Pingyuanjun immediately put the small ding back on the stove, added spring water to the small ding, and then lifted the teapot and poured a cup for Xinlingjun, and then continued: "This tea is the most eye-catching, you must taste it."

If it is said that the greeting just now is still hello to me and hello everyone in the process, Ping Yuanjun's words are obviously meaningful.

Bright-minded?

Between the mind and the eyes is what man sees. Ping Yuanjun said this, obviously he wanted Xinling Jun to keep his eyes open and see the situation clearly!

What situation?

The situation of Zhao and Qin's rivalry? The situation in the Wei-Zhao Alliance? Or, the situation where Zhao is strong and Wei is weak?

"Oh?" When Xinling Jun heard this, he was shocked again, and immediately picked up the tea cup in front of him with both hands, and said, "That's a must-try."

As he spoke, he blew the surface of the tea slightly, and after the heat dissipated slightly, Xin Lingjun immediately covered his face with his sleeve and sent the tea cup to his lips, his lips and teeth opened and closed, and the tea slowly slipped into his tongue, and a faint bitterness instantly filled his mouth.

Frowning slightly, the slightly hot tea slid down his throat and down his stomach.

Immediately afterwards, the bitterness in the mouth disappeared almost instantly, and there was a sweetness

The tongue coating erupts in the mouth, and a breath unique to spring runs down the nasal cavity to the top of the skull.

"Whew!" Xinlingjun, who had felt all the tastes, exhaled a long breath, and I don't know if this tea is really effective, or the relationship between the psychological effect, Xinlingjun who drank a cup of tea actually felt relaxed and happy, and the tiredness of running around for days was also much better.

"This is really God's drink." Xinlingjun sighed.

Of course, tea is delicious, but it can't be a "god" word.

Of course, there are other things in the "gods", such as the land of Zhou Wangji that Xinling Jun wanted here.

"Just a few leaves, if you like it." Pingyuan Jun waved his hand and said with a smile, "What's the matter with giving you a few catties."

Pingyuan Jun knew what the purpose of Xinlingjun was here, but he could only pretend not to know.

Although Xinlingjun can't let him know that he already knows his specific intentions, Xinlingjun is here, and the general thoughts are known to everyone without asking.

Therefore, Ping Yuanjun used the word "gift", but it made the relationship between the host and the guest clear.

In the pavilion, Pingyuanjun is the main one, Xinlingjun is the guest, Pingyuanjun can give Xinlingjun good tea, but Xinlingjun can't ask Pingyuanjun for it;

In today's world, Zhao is the main and Wei is the guest, and Zhao can give some soup and water to Wei, but Wei can't ask for it.

This is a courtesy, but also a reason, and it is the status won by hundreds of thousands of people with armor in Zhao State.

This is "the guest is as the host is"!

In a word: what I give you is yours, if you don't give it to you, you can't rob it!

"The king can cut love." Xin Lingjun also laughed, but then his face froze slightly, but he shook his head and said, "Forget it! If you are accustomed to drinking this divine drink, it is the honey water of the Heavenly Mountains, how can it enter your throat."

At this time, Xinling Jun obviously understood that from the moment he stepped into the Pingyuan Jun's mansion, or even from Daliang, Zhao Guo had already guessed that he was here to ask for benefits.

"It's a pity that Zhao Guo has underestimated my king's appetite a little." Xin Lingjun couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

Obviously, Xin Lingjun also understood the meaning of the word "gift" - it's not impossible to want benefits, but don't think about the lion opening his mouth, giving you a mouthful of soup, and that's it.

Of course, this is very different from the task assigned by the King of Wei, Wei not only has to eat meat, but also the fattest piece!

And with the appearance of this word, Xin Lingjun also knew that his trip might not be so easy to achieve his goal.

In other words, from the very beginning, Xinling Jun knew that this matter was not as simple as King Wei imagined.

It's just that there is no turning back when he opens the bow, even if he knows that the road ahead is boundless, Xinlingjun can only bury his head and move forward.

Since Zhao Guo has already opened a price code, Xin Lingjun naturally has to return a price code.

Saying that, Xinlingjun didn't forget to look at Pingyuanjun, and said slowly: "Drinking it every day is a few catties, but it's not enough!"

The meaning of this is also very simple and clear: Wei Guo does not drink enough soup and wants to eat meat! And it has to be the kind that can produce raw meat.

The demand for land is almost on the table.

Pingyuanjun glanced at Xinlingjun deeply, he can be so rigid, that is, Xinlingjun. Fortunately, the two have always been on the edge, although both sides understand what the other means, but they are always on the edge, and they haven't torn their faces yet.

Naturally, Pingyuanjun, who had already received Zhao Kuo's request, would not tear his face, but in order to finally get the land of Nadong County, Pingyuanjun had to continue to "lower the price".

Immediately, Pingyuanjun smiled again and said, "What's so difficult about this, let your sister send someone to send you every year." As long as Zhao and Wei cooperate and fight against the tyrannical Qin, there will be no shortage of kings."

Obviously, Pingyuan Jun is still a family name.

Zhao and Wei are like relatives, and the tea can naturally be money and silk, or grain, but it is just a word "send", but it blocks Xinlingjun's desire for land.

Not only that, Pingyuan Jun also set two rules for Xinling Jun:

Zhao Wei is a collaborator, a co-ordinator, and a helper of cooperation. Who co-op whom? It must be Zhao Guo and Wei State, it is still Zhao as the main and Wei as the second, that is to say, Wei has to be obedient.

The meaning of resisting the Qin State is even clearer. There is only one purpose to give you benefits, and that is to resist Qin.

It should be said that Pingyuanjun's two rules seem to be a bit strong, but in fact they are not strict.

First, Zhao is the lord of Wei, just in terms of the national strength of Zhao and Wei, even if Wei wants to be the mainstay, it can't withstand Qin!

As for the second one, not to mention, Lian Zhao to fight against Qin, those are all basic requirements, you can't give you benefits from Zhao Guo here, turn your head and throw your eyes at Qin Guo.

For such a request, Pingyuanjun is naturally able to accept it. But the price offered by Zhao Guo was not something he could accept. Tea is not what he wants, tea trees and the land on which tea trees are planted are what Xinling Jun and King Wei want.

Immediately, Xin Lingjun also responded: "Sister, naturally, feels sorry for me, and Sister will always be my sister."

This is tantamount to acknowledging the two conditions put forward by Pingyuanjun.

But then, as soon as the conversation changed, Xin Lingjun continued: "But I am an adult after all, and it is not good to rely on my sister for everything. Adulthood, starting a family; Start a family, start a business."

Saying that, Xinlingjun looked at Pingyuanjun again.

Xin Lingjun's words can no longer be regarded as sharp, and he almost shows his intention nakedly.

The most important thing in "starting a family" is nothing more than land!

When Pingyuanjun heard this, he naturally knew that he couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore.

It's just that Pingyuanjun still didn't respond positively, just sighed lightly, then looked at the already boiling Xiaoding, and added a scoop of cold spring to the Xiaoding, seeing that the boiling water gradually subsided, Pingyuanjun raised his head again.

"Old, old." Pingyuanjun looked at Xinlingjun on the other side and continued, "Although I know that it is useless to stop the boiling of the soup, this matter of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle can only be handed over to you and other young people."

Pingyuanjun's meaning is also very clear, there is only so much he can help, and if he wants more, he can only rely on Xinlingjun himself.

Of course, Xinling-kun also knew what Pingyuan-kun meant, and of course he also knew that it was impossible to take the salary of the bottom of the kettle empty-handed.

Immediately, Xin Lingjun took a pair of tongs from the table, handed it to Pingyuan Jun with both hands, and said quite solemnly: "If you use millions of grains as tongs, can you smoke wood?"

Obviously, Xinlingjun is already a semi-showdown - Wei is willing to exchange millions of loads of grain and grass for the land of Zhao. Although they didn't say exactly how much land they wanted, the two of them already knew it in their hearts.

"Hahaha......" Pingyuanjun laughed out loud when he heard this, and he wanted to exchange millions of loads of grain for the land of Zhou Wangji, Pingyuanjun could only say that King Wei wanted to be blind.

Of course, it was inconvenient for Pingyuan Jun to deny it directly, and immediately continued: "Grain is also wood, how can it be used as a tongs, and using grain and straw into the bottom of the kettle to draw wages is tantamount to adding wages to the bottom of the kettle."

Xinlingjun, who heard the words, seemed to have thought of something, but Pingyuanjun was about to end this conversation, after all, if he continued, Zhao Guo's hole cards would probably be revealed.

"Well, after drinking so much tea, I feel empty. Your sister has already prepared a meal, let's go quickly! Your sister has been looking forward to you for a long time." As he spoke, he didn't care about Xinlingjun who was still stunned, he stood up straight, and was about to pull Xinlingjun to the back hall to eat.

Seeing this, Xin Lingjun had no choice but to get up. After all, Sister, he hasn't seen him for a long time.

It's just that there is still a question in Xin Lingjun's heart. Before seeing his sister, Xinlingjun immediately asked Pingyuanjun again......
