Chapter 60
Qin Wen stood in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion and said to the servant guarding the door: "Please inform Prime Minister Fan that Qin Wen is visiting." ”
The man guarding the door saw that Qin Wen was dressed extraordinarily, and after answering the word, he entered the mansion to spread the word, and after a while, Fan Jigao walked out of the mansion with laughter: "I didn't know that Qin Xian's nephew came to the capital, but I didn't know that I was an uncle, and I didn't give the virtuous nephew a clean sweep." ”
Qin Wen arched his hand and said: "Uncle Fan is serious, Qin Wen is just a junior, how can he bother Uncle Fan to receive him personally, since it is a junior to meet his seniors." ”
Fan Jigao said with a smile: "Hahaha, good, good, the virtuous nephew is polite and has extraordinary manners, Brother Qin is so blessed, if it is really a tiger father without a dog, the elder brother has a successor, quick, virtuous nephew, talk to your uncle when you enter the mansion." ”
Fan Jigao brought Qin Wen into the mansion, and after coming to the living room to sit down with the guests, Fan Jigao asked with a smile: "I don't know what the virtuous nephew is talking about this time, but what does the elder brother command." ”
Qin Wen replied: "Wen has been studying with his father since he was a child, and has been in the countryside, this time the Qin army invaded my Qi country, my father was worried that Wen Jin would investigate the movements of the court, and by the way, he would advise the king, now the Qin army must no longer fight with Xia, but unite Xia and Chu to resist Qin State, my father also knew that the king wanted to defeat Xia, but at this time, the Qin army was eyeing the enemy, if he had a bad relationship with Xia again, it would be unwise, and my father wanted my uncle to join forces with loyal ministers in the court to jointly admonish the king. ”
Fan Jigao said with admiration on his face: "Brother Gaoyi, he has stayed away from the temple and still cares about the world, he is really a model for my generation, and he does not hide from his nephew, I have already united all the ministers to jointly admonish the king." ”
Qin Wen asked with a look of hope, "Dare to ask Uncle what the result is." ”
Fan Jigao shook his head with an embarrassed face and said: "With little effect, although the king promised not to march into the Xia Kingdom for the time being, the old man can see that the king did not really give up the conquest of Xia, but at this time he had to give up due to the situation, once the Qin army is not threatened, the king will definitely enter the Xia Kingdom." ”
Qin Wen said incredulously: "No, the king must attack the Xia Kingdom regardless of it?" ”
Fan Jigao nodded with a slight wry smile and said: "It seems that your father didn't tell you, when Brother Qin would retire from the position of prime minister and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, the biggest problem was the king's hatred of Xia. The eldest princess was even closer to the state of Chu, and the king of Chu withdrew his troops, and Brother Qin resigned in a fit of anger, lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and no longer asked about the affairs of the court. ”
Seeing Qin Wen's surprised face, Fan Jigao smiled bitterly: "This time the Qin army invaded, and I got the east of Qi, but I don't seem to care about the king's intentions, and still want to deal with the Qin state in the same way as the Chu State, and I even planned to let the third princess and the pro-Qin country before, but the matter was stopped by us later, but I don't think the king seems to be giving up." Ay! The king hates Xia Guo so much, it's really..."
Although Fan Jigao didn't say what he said next, Qin Wen also knew that the King of Qi hated the Xia State so much, and even insisted on attacking the Xia State even if he allowed the invasion of Qin and Chu, which was really unwise.

In the princess's mansion, the third princess walked back and forth in the hall alone, with both anticipation, fear, and a little shyness in her heart.
At this time, the maid who went to pass the word came back, and the third princess hurriedly asked, "How is it, what did Mr. Zhao say?" ”
Seeing that the third princess was so nervous, the maid suddenly said: "Princess, then Zhao Gongzi said that he would go to the appointment truthfully in the afternoon, and now the princess can rest assured." ”
The maid said with a little unhappiness: "Princess, you are a dignified princess of Qi Kingdom, that Zhao Zheng is just a first-order cloth princess with golden branches and jade leaves, as for it, Xiao Ling really doesn't understand, so why is Zhao Zheng so attractive to the princess." ”
The third princess suddenly said with a shy face: "Dead Nizi, you talk a lot, okay, go down and prepare, don't wait for Zhao Gongzi to come and be ready." ”
Seeing the nervous and excited appearance of the third princess, the maid sighed slightly and said, "The slave knows, so go down and order." ”
After the third princess nodded, the maid slowly withdrew from the living room, and after the maid left, the third princess began to walk back and forth again, it seemed that her heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface, and from time to time she fell into her own fantasy, and from time to time she showed a hint of a smile, and her face was shy.
It was close to noon, Qin Wen had not come back, the First Emperor looked at the sky, it was already close to noon, the First Emperor could only give up waiting for Qin Wen, and said to Long Ao beside him: "Forget it, let's go to the Princess's Mansion, if it's too late, we will be late." ”
The first emperor ordered his subordinates, and then took Long Ao to pay the appointment of the third princess.
When he came to the princess's mansion, the guard stopped the first emperor, and the first emperor took out the previous princess token from his arms and said to the guard: "This is the waist card of the princess's mansion, and I am here to pay the invitation of the third princess." ”
The guard checked the waist tag and confirmed that it was correct, then bowed down and said, "Sir, please, the princess has been waiting for a long time." ”
The First Emperor nodded and entered the Princess's Mansion, enjoying the scenery of the Princess's Mansion all the way to the living room under the guidance of the guards.
......................................................................................................................................................................................
After the guards took the First Emperor to sit down in the living room, they went to inform the princess, and the First Emperor observed the furnishings of the living room with great interest, and saw that the living room was very simple, except for a few sets of chairs and some simple furniture, there was only a map.
The First Emperor walked to the map and looked at the various signs drawn on the map, the First Emperor observed and found that most of these signs were fortifications in various parts of the Qihuang River and the places occupied by the Qin army, as well as the march routes of the Qin and Qi armies.
The First Emperor suddenly smiled slightly, and from the furnishings in the living room and this map, the First Emperor could roughly tell that this third princess was much more useful than his two straw bale brothers.
The First Emperor muttered: "It's a pity that it's a daughter, otherwise, there are successors to the Qi State, it's really hard to say that Daqin wants to take the Qi State in a short time, it seems that Meng Tian's approach is correct, not to mention that the prime minister of the Qi State and those ministers of the Qi State are just this third princess, if the Qi State is really deployed like this, it is not so simple for Daqin to take the Qi State in one fell swoop, it's a pity." ”
At this time, the third princess walked in from outside, and said with a happy smile: "What is a pity? ”
The First Emperor turned around and saw that the third princess had already walked into the living room, and said with a slight smile: "It's nothing, it's a pity that Qin Wen's kid has always wanted to come to the princess's mansion before, but he was not there at the critical moment, presumably he will shout that it is a pity to miss such an opportunity after knowing it." ”
The third princess smiled slightly and said: "What's the pity, if Mr. Qin Wen wants to come, Fei'er is welcome at any time, I'm afraid that Fei'er doesn't want to come to Mr. Zhao and Mr. Qin Wen." ”
The First Emperor smiled slightly and said, "How come, the princess is graciously invited, and I am overjoyed." ”
The third princess was puzzled: "I? ”
The First Emperor smiled and said, "Oh, this is my hometown, and we all call ourselves I." ”
The third princess did not doubt him and said: "Oh, I see, I am, it is really interesting for Mr. to call himself home." ”
The First Emperor smiled and said silently, and said secretly in his heart: "Habits are really hard to change, but fortunately, there is no unification in this world, and there is no emperor, let alone the title of me." ”
The First Emperor changed the subject and said, "It seems that the princess is interested in both political affairs and military affairs." ”
The third princess walked to the map and said with a smile: "Let Mr. see it, Fei'er has loved the military since she was a child, and she can tinker with these things at home if she has nothing to do, and it is better to talk about it than to pass the time." ”
The First Emperor smiled slightly and said: "The princess is too modest, if the deployment of the princess is really carried out according to the deployment of the princess, I think it is not easy for the Qin army to enter the Qi country." ”
The first emperor said that these are not compliments, but sincere appreciation, the three princesses' military talents are really not ordinarily strong, fortunately, they are daughters, and there are many inconveniences in acting, the first emperor is now glad that the three princesses are daughters, if it is a man's body, then the Qin army is really not so simple to invade the Qi country, and it is impossible to eat the entire Qi country in the shortest possible time.
