When the news of Meng Fu reached Qin State, Zi Chu agreed to summon the Han envoy and sent Meng Fu to wait for the latest orders.

The order of the Qin prince Chu reached the position, and the Han envoy set off towards the city of Xianyang of the Qin state.

In Xianyang City, Zichu summoned the prince and young master Yan Yan and Prime Minister Lu Buwei, the pawn Cai Ze, and Shi Feng to discuss in the palace.

The four of them met with Zichu in the side hall of the palace.

Zi Chu looked at the four people who saluted, "Excuse me." ”

"South Korea sent an envoy to come, saying that they were willing to cede land and sue for peace, and the widow summoned you here to hear the opinions of a few of you."

Yan Yan and Lü Buwei did not speak out, although the two of them have been in the court of the Qin State for more than a year, and their subordinates have their own parties, so it is naturally impossible to take the lead in everything.

Shi Feng Qujian and Cai Ze, who governed Sunei, have been in the court for a long time and know the way of being an official.

Zi Chu looked at the four people who were silent, and his eyes swirled back and forth on the four of them. Zi Chu looked at Lu Buwei and said, "Prime Minister talk about it." ”

Lü Buwei "Back to the king, since the king of Han sent envoys to Qin, he must be ready to come, and for the exchanges between Shi Chen, Cai Xiang is the best candidate." ”

Zi Chu looked at Cai Ze, an old minister of the Three Dynasties, who served as Fan Ju's right-hand man to govern the Qin State in his grandfather Zhaoxiang Dynasty, and the Qin State was thriving under the joint efforts of him and Fan Ju.

After less than a year in office, he took the initiative to resign from the post of prime minister in a panic and anxiety in a high position, and was willing to be a minor official of the Qin State and not occupy a high position.

He assisted his father Wang Xiaowen and Wang Shouxiao to send envoys to Korea, Wei, and Chu during the period of filial piety, which stabilized the inbreeding policy and enabled the Qin State to survive the period of succession of kings.

Because he served as the prime minister of Qin, he was tacitly approved by his grandfather and father to be called Cai Xiang as a reward.

Zi Chu looked at Cai Ze and said, "Cai has been dealing with South Korea for a long time, I don't know how much land the Qin State should need in Korea this time to avoid the disaster of war." ”

Cai Ze said: "Great King, the minister thinks that all the land close to the border between my Great Qin and Wei will be ceded to me by Qin State, so as to avoid this military disaster." ”

Cai Ze's words made the four of them stunned, but the lands close to Great Qin and Wei were ceded, could South Korea be willing? That's nearly half of the territory.

Zichu said, "Cai Xiang, is this..." ”

Cai Ze said, "King, now that our army is on the border, if South Korea does not agree to such a plan, then send troops to attack South Korea, and let Han know the horror of the Qin army's iron cavalry." ”

Yan Yan took the initiative to say at this time, "King, the minister agrees with Cai Xiang's point of view. ”

"Now it is our Qin country that is strong and strong, while South Korea is small and weak."

"So the king just opened his mouth and took the opportunity to raise the price, so that South Korea could choose whether to cede the land or destroy the country."

Yan Yan said this and glanced at Cai Ze.

Cai Ze hurriedly continued, "King, it is inevitable that the envoys of the two countries can reach a result in a single confrontation. ”

"There is still room for reversal of the conditions mentioned by the minister."

"At the very least, we need to take the territory of Gongdi, which borders Wei, so that our army can attack Wei, and we need to take Chenggao, the border bordering Qin and Gongdi, and connect it."

"In this way, our Qin State has continuously cut off the connection between Han and Wei, and has directly extended the territory of Qin State to the land of Daliang, the capital of Wei State, and attacking Wei has twice the result with half the effort."

Zichu asked the chamberlain to spread out the map, and looked at Gongdi and Chenggao indeed, as Cai Ze said, once they were in the bag, then they could attack Wei if they entered and Han could be attacked when they retreated.

Zi Chu jumped his head and looked at Cai Ze and said, "Cai Xiang, this time the matter is fully entrusted to you to operate, and it is bound to do what you say." ”

Cai Ze: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Zi Chu looked at Lu Buwei and said, "Prime Minister, you prepare the policy of the two places and implement the policy of widowhood." ”

Lü Buwei nodded.

The eyes of the crowd had already told them that this time the event would be as they thought, and it would be a success.

The four of them saluted and left.

Lü Buwei and Yan Yan walked together.

Lü Buwei: "Young Master Yan believes that Korea will inevitably cede these two places. ”

Yan Yan nodded and said, "King Han is unconscious, seeing that my army is approaching the border, he has not yet opened it, and he sent envoys to sue for peace, proving that Korea does not have the strength to fight, so he will make this decision." ”

"Then under the threat of heavy troops, we will reduce our territory from half to only these two places to save Korea from military disasters, and we can still keep Xincheng, Nanyang and other counties."

"In this situation, King Han can only choose this way, otherwise Nanyang County will be ceded to Qin, and Xinzheng, the capital of Korea, will face Qin."

"King Han sitting in Xinzheng City will not be able to sleep well."

Lu Buwei recalled the terrain map in his mind, and then nodded, it was indeed as Yan Yan said.

Lü Buwei said goodbye to Yan Yan, and watched Yan Yan get into the carriage and leave, Lü Buwei turned to look at Feng Quji and Cai Zedao, "Trouble the two of you to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss important matters." ”

The two saluted and said, "Don't dare to do it, do your duty." ”

The two walked towards their carriage, and then the coachman drove the carriage to Lü Buwei's carriage towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Yan Yan did not return to Huayang Palace, and the coachman headed towards the chiffon teahouse.

Xue Ji looked at Yan Yan, and after making tea for him, she said, "Recently, Bingyan met an opponent. ”

Yan Yan looked at her, waiting for her next sentence.

Yukihime talks about a pattern and puts it on the dining table.

Xue Ji said, "This organization seems to be targeting Ice Flame in a meaningful way, and we have suffered serious losses in the Qi Kingdom, Zhao Kingdom, and Yan Kingdom. ”

"This organization has infiltrated countries more seriously than us, and the officials, royal families, and clans of the court have their candidates."

Yan Yan frowned and looked at that pattern, what was the purpose of an organization that was more powerful than the Ice Flame they had formed?

Yan Yan: "Is there a Qin State?" ”

Yukihime nodded.

Yan Yan said, "Is there any trace of them?" ”

Yukihime shook her head and said, "Not yet, it's still investigating." ”

Yan Yan "Order, everyone lurks, if it is not necessary, there is no need to contact." ”

Yukihime: "So we don't lose all the sources of information?" ”

Yan Yan said, "Today's time is not the time to sacrifice in vain, the most important thing is to develop and grow silently." ”

"The Flame Organization must speed up its pace, since the other party has people with high strength, then we must also have people with enough strength to deal with it, otherwise no matter how good the eye is, it will be shot through by a bow and arrow."

Xue Ji: "Zhao doesn't use it at home. ”

Yukihime made a killing gesture.

Yan Yan shook his head and said, "Not for the time being." ”

After Xue Ji finished speaking, she slowly moved, closing the distance between herself and Yan Yan.

Yukihime lay down on his crossed lap, a pair of ice crystal eyes looking at him, and from this angle you could just see his low-hanging triangular eyes, and you could clearly see her smile reflected in those crystal clear eyes.

The soft wattle as white as snow gently crossed the towering cheekbones, the bridge of the nose, and finally landed gently on the thin lips.

Xue Ji said, "The wind blows my heart, and the tent is warm and smoked." ”

Yan Yan looked at himself in the ice crystal, the corners of his cold mouth rose slightly, and then the ice crystal seemed to be stained with mist, and his became blurred.

After Yan Yan left, a smile still flashed in Yukihime's eyes, and she knew that his heart, like hers, was blown by the wind.

Yan Yan returned to Huayang Palace, and Qing Ling changed his clothes, which had the unique tea fragrance of chiffon teahouse.

hung up the court clothes, dressed Yan Yan in the black clothes he often wears, and then made tea and knelt on the side.

Yan Yan said, "What about Your Highness? ”

Qingling said, "His Royal Highness Cheng Cheng has come down, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has taken him out of the city to hunt." ”

Yan Yan looked at a round of golden sun, and as time went by, the temperature would get hotter and hotter.

The plagues brought about by the war will also begin to spread.

Zhao has already sent troops against Yan, and now the two countries are fighting a bloody war.

There was a big war between the state of Chu and Baiyue, and Baiyue was defeated miserably and declared himself a vassal to the state of Chu.

Three days later, the Han envoy arrived in Xianyang.

It took only three days to complete the six-day journey, which shows the eagerness of the Han envoy.

At the court meeting, Zichu summoned the Han envoy Shao Zheng.

Shao Zheng was trying to calm himself down, but his slightly trembling fingers had betrayed his unsettled heart.

Ying Zheng looked at Shao Zheng and moved his gaze from his fingers to his face, his eyelids trembling slightly.

Han envoy Shao Zheng "Korean envoys visit the King of Qin, King of Qin Sheng'an." ”

Zichu "Excuse me." ”

"The envoy of Han has worked hard from afar, and I don't know what the king of Han sent an envoy to the Qin State to do."

Shao Zheng "Back to the King of Qin, my king came to the border of your country's Chen soldiers, I don't know how your country can withdraw the army and restore peace to the border between the two countries." ”

Zi Chu said, "The war between Yan and Zhao continues, and my Qin State borders with Zhao State, Korea, and Wei, and the widow is afraid that Zhao State will wave his troops to the west to attack Qin at that time, so Chen soldiers are hereby defended." ”

Shao Zheng "can live in our knowledge, your army seems to have the intention of attacking South Korea." ”

Zichu nodded, "Ten years ago, in a battle with Handan City of Zhao, Wei rescued Zhao, and South Korea sent troops to the border between Qin and Han, making it difficult for my Qin soldiers to support Handan City and were defeated by the two countries. ”

"Now is the time for revenge."

Shao Zheng "The king of Qin is angry, and my king is also helpless, if he does not show troops at the border, if the purpose of Wei changes to the south to attack Korea, then Korea will be in danger." ”

In the middle, they began to push each other until they plucked themselves clean.

In the end, Zi Chu looked at Han Envoy and said, "If Han Envoy comes to shirk the explanation, it is no longer necessary, and the Qin State will definitely take revenge to comfort the accumulated bones of the Qin army under Handan City." ”

Shao Zheng: "The king of Qin is angry, and my king does not want to fight with your country, so he also sent me to discuss how to stop fighting and stop fighting." ”

Lü Buwei stood up and said, "King, since the King of Han has sent someone to stop the army, it is better to let Korea cede the land as a way to comfort the dead souls of the Qin army." ”

Shao Zheng looked at the famous Lu Buwei, and after saying so much, he finally said that the destination was on, and the next thing was for the two sides to talk to each other.

Zi Chu looked at Lu Buwei and said, "Prime Minister elaborate." ”

Lü Buwei stood up and said, "Since South Korea is unwilling to go to war with our country, and our country wants to take revenge, to comfort the accumulated bones of the Qin army under Handan City." ”

"In addition to defending their homeland, the soldiers of the Qin army are fighting to expand their territory."

"Sun Tzu said that winning without a fight is the strongest art of war."

"In that case, why not let South Korea cede the lands bordering Qin and Wei in Nanyang, Xincheng, Gongdi, and Chenggao to the Qin State, and condolences to the Qin army soldiers in the heavens."

Zi Chu looked at Shao Zhengdao, "What does the Han envoy think." ”

Shao Zheng was in a cold sweat desperately, he never thought that the appetite of the Qin State was so big, and he directly opened his mouth to be the most fertile territory in the north of Korea.

King Han didn't want to cede so much, but just said that he could cede Xincheng, a territory close to the northwest of Korea, to Qin, how could this be good.

Shao Zheng saluted and said, "King Qin, isn't this too much. ”

Lü Buwei said, "Is it too much? ”

Shao Zheng nodded stiffly and said, "Many." ”

Lü Buwei ignored him, and said to Zichu, "King, since Korea has no sincerity, then it is better to attack it with a large army and take revenge." ”

Zichu nodded cooperatively and said, "The prime minister is reasonable." ”

Shao Zheng hurriedly said, "King Qin, please slow down, and return to China to report to my king." ”

Zichu said: "How long does it take to go back to Xinzheng from here." ”

Lü Buwei said: "Hurry up and whip for ten days." ”

Zi Chu "The widow gave you fifteen days, and if there is no answer after fifteen days, the Qin army will set foot on the territory of Korea." ”

Shao Zheng saluted and said, "I hope that the king of Qin, the minister will immediately set off to return to China to report to my king." ”

Zichu said: "Slowly." ”

Shao Zheng stopped.

Zi Chu said, "Cai Ze, you go to Korea on an envoy and tell the widow's wishes to Han Wangzhi." ”

Cai Ze stood up, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Zichu "scattered the dynasty." ”

"Scattered."

"Congratulations to the king."

The Han envoy came and went faster, and set off to return to South Korea without stopping.

The next day, Cai Ze also set off for South Korea.

Zhao State attacked Zhao general Le Cheng and captured Shanggu County of Yan State.

Zhao Guoxi's troops returned to Handan to replenish supplies.

Twelve days after the return of the Korean envoy, news came from South Korea that he had reached an agreement with the Qin envoy Mo Ze.

Ceded Chenggao and Gongdi to the Qin State to stop the war.

This news directly made Zichu faint excitedly, and he fell asleep for two days before he woke up.

The general of Zhao State, Le Cheng, once again led the army to attack Yan, and Meng Fu obeyed the command and stationed his troops in Chenggao and Gongdi, coveting Wei.

For a while, the whole country panicked.

The king of Wei sent envoys to Qin, and at the same time sent envoys to Zhao to ask for help, asking Wei Wuji of Xinling County to return to China to preside over the overall situation.

The Qin State did not immediately attack the Wei State, and stationed troops in Chenggao, staring at the Liang with fierce eyes.

At this time, the envoys of the two countries, Yan and Wei, came to Xianyang at the same time.

The purpose of the envoys of the two countries was different, one was to ask Qin to start a war, and the other was to let Qin stop the war.

Zhao Guo Handan.

Since the death of Pingyuan Jun, Zhao Guo is like losing a layer of shackles, and all the courtiers dare to speak arrogantly above the court.

Xinling Jun was drinking alone, and there was no Pingyuan Jun who could talk to him, and he was very lonely in Handan City.

The envoys of Wei asked to see Xinling County.

Xinling Jun looked at the envoy of Wei and said, "What is the matter of looking for this monarch." ”

The envoy of Wei said: "The king of Wei misses the king very much, and hereby the minister, please return to China." ”

Xinlingjun said, "Brother Wang misses Benjun, I'm afraid it's not a joke again." ”

The envoy went to "the king, and the king of Wei asked the minister to bring a message to the king." ”

"Shin Ling Jun" said. ”

Envoy: "The state of Wei will die." ”
