The Marquis of Wei changed the employment policy, and many people in the Wei State left the Wei State for other countries because they could not realize their ideals, perform their revenge, or could not get high-ranking officials.

Zhao and Korea, which were closest to Wei, saw the astonishing changes after Wei's reform, and the two countries also began to change their laws. In the past, the two countries wanted to change the law, but there was a convergence effect of talents.

The vast majority of talents will go to Wei, and only a few will come to Zhao and Korea. Now, after the operation of Wei Hou, many talents who were originally in Wei began to flow to Korea and Zhao.

Zhao and Han also began to change the law according to the situation of the Wei state.

In addition to Korea and Zhao, after experiencing a crushing defeat, the Qin State had to start changing the law, but the Qin State was regarded as a barbarian land, and there were very few people willing to go to the Qin State.

At the same time, the clan in the Qin state was vying for power and profit, and there was chaos at this time, the former Qin Marquis was expelled by the nobles of the country because of the defeat of the Wei attack, and then supported a young son as the king, and at the same time, let his mother be in power, so that the Qin state became even more chaotic.

In the third year of the Marquis of Wei, the Marquis of Wei led the ministers to Xihe County to patrol and condolence the soldiers, and when he saw the surrounding mountains and rivers, he sighed with emotion: "There are such steep mountains and rivers on the border of Wei, isn't the border impregnable?" ”

At this time, the minister beside Wei Hou complimented: "Yes, the Jin Kingdom had this steep mountain and river back then, and dominated for a hundred years, if the monarch cultivates politics again and prospers, then we will definitely be able to dominate the world!" ”

Wu Qi, who was following beside him, frowned when he heard it, and said directly: "The words of the king are dangerous remarks, you don't advise, but compete to match, is this to make Wei more dangerous?" ”

Wei Hou was furious when he heard this: "Wu Qing, is there something wrong with what Gu said? ”

Wu Qi was not afraid and said directly: "The mountains and rivers are dangerous and cannot stabilize the country, and the hegemony has never been the mountains and rivers to be born, in ancient times, the place where the Sanmiao Li people lived, there was Pengli Lake on the left, Dongting Lake on the right, Qishan was in the north, and Hengshan was in the south. Although there is a natural danger to rely on, but in the end it was driven away by Dayu. ”

"The country of Xia Wei also has the danger of mountains and rivers, but because of its brutal oppression and political darkness, it was finally broken by Chengtang, and the country of Shang also has the danger of the Yellow River, and the mountains are guarded, but it is still destroyed by King Wu of Zhou. Is it because the mountains and rivers they are in are not dangerous enough? ”

"You have also led a great army in battle, and you have led us to capture so many cities, and the walls of those cities are not high? Aren't there many people? But they were broken by us, isn't this caused by their political corruption and the exploitation of officials? ”

"From this point of view, how can it be possible to achieve hegemony just by relying on the steep mountains and rivers?"

When Wei Hou heard what Wu Qi said, he became more and more dissatisfied in his heart, but he also knew that Wu Qi's words were politically correct, and he had heard too many such words.

He immediately said: "Very good, Gu heard your high argument today, and the government affairs of Xihe County will be entrusted to you." ”

Then lead the ministers and ministers to leave directly.

Marquis Wei's attitude made Wu Qi very anxious, as a courtier, seeing that the monarch was wrong, it was his proper duty to speak out and advise, but why did Marquis Wei have such an attitude?

After the departure of the Marquis of Wei, Wu Qi returned to the official residence worriedly, and during the period of the ancestor Wei Wenhou, Wu Qi's advice to the Marquis of Wen would accept it, and correct it, giving him full trust, so that he could lead the army to capture one city after another without worries.

And when it came to the current Marquis of Wei, the situation suddenly changed.

Just when Wu Qi was worried, he sent people to Qin to inquire about the real secret agent back, and when he saw the political chaos of Qin and the nobles fighting for power, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity to destroy Qin.

Wu Qi immediately didn't care about anything else, took out the bamboo slips and began to write, and after he finished writing the strategy of attacking Qin, he immediately sent someone to send the slips to the Marquis of Wei.

After Xu Ke next to him saw it, he hurriedly stopped and said: "Jun just eviled Wei Hou, this time he will go to the book to attack Qin, will Wei Hou trust you?" ”

Wu Qi said: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, at this time, we will be able to destroy Yongdu, destroy Qin, and there will be no western border trouble from the Western Wei State. ”

Immediately insisted on sending someone to send the bamboo slips up.

Seeing Wu Qi's insistence, Xu Ke also had a headache, they came here to take Wu Qi to Huai, although this time if Wu Qi led the army to fight and conquered the Qin State, he would definitely not be able to stay any longer, but the Wei State also annexed the Qin State because of this, and the national strength rose sharply.

This was not in the interests of Huai, and Xu Ke immediately summoned the others over to discuss, and then one of them hurriedly left and rushed to the capital of Wei.

When the secret guards of the Wei capital learned the news, they immediately sent people to Tian Wen and Gongsun Fu to inform them of Wu Qi's plan.

"Wu Qi wants to attack Qin, the Qin State is weak, this time to fight, Wu Qi should have the merit of destroying the country, to Wu Qi with the power of a great victory, he will inevitably be crowned the prime minister, how will the two of them deal with themselves?"

Tian Wen and Gongsun Fu were both selfish people, so they naturally didn't want to quit the prime minister and give way to Wu Qi, so they immediately decided not to let him lead the army to the battle.

Seeing the expressions of the two, the secret guard continued: "Wei Wushu is strong, Qin State is just some old and weak, how can you stop it, Jun can completely set aside Wu Qi and personally lead Wei Wushu to attack Qin, so isn't the merit of destroying the country Jun?" ”

Tian Wen and Gongsun Fu's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they immediately said: "Thank you for your advice, your guidance today will be rewarded in the future!" ”

Immediately, Tian Wen and Gongsun Cuo rushed to the Wei Palace. As soon as the two entered the palace, they heard Wei Hou laughing, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.

"Tian Qing and Gongsun Qing came just in time, take a look at this strategy to destroy Qin!" Wei Hou saw the two of them coming, and hurriedly said happily.

The two of them pretended to look at the bamboo slips, and their hearts were shaken, if Wu Qi led the army to attack Qin, the merit of destroying the country would definitely be his, the two looked at each other, and immediately said: "Wu Qing's strategy is really extraordinary." ”

"If you act according to this, the destruction of Qin is just around the corner, but."

"But what?" Wei Hou asked casually.

"Your Majesty, Wu Qing has made great contributions, and now he is already a very popular minister, if he has this merit of destroying the country again, I am afraid that the position of Xiangguo will not be able to repay him for his merit at that time!" Gongsun said wrongly.

"yes." Tian Wen said on the side: "Do you remember the incident of patrolling the border not long ago?" The people only know Wu Qing, but they don't know the king."

Wei Hou's face was suddenly cloudy, and after a while, he said: "The edict ordered Wu Qi to come to the national capital to take up his post, and Xihe County was handed over to Gongsun Cuo, and ordered the country to raise grain and grass, with Gongsun Cuo as the main general, and the commander and soldiers to prepare to attack Qin." ”

Hearing the edict of Marquis Wei, a flash of joy flashed in the eyes of the two.

Soon the edict was issued, and after Wu Qi received the edict, the whole person was stunned for a moment as if he had been struck by lightning.

After Xu Ke next to him saw it, he said to him: "Wu Jun, Wei Hou is already suspicious of you, you are in Xihe County, you are famous, respected by the people, and there are military soldiers on the side, no one dares to despise them, but if you return to the capital this time, there are no military soldiers on the side, just a small official can take you down, and I hope Wu Jun will think twice." ”

After Wu Qi heard this, his face was solemn, he was also a decisive person, and immediately said: "Wei Hou can't tolerate me, do you have a place to go?" ”

"I heard that Huai is open, if you are thirsty for talent, you have great talents, if you run to Huai this time, you will be reused!"

Wu Qi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Huaiguo this time!" ”
