Chu.

Shou Chun.

With the eunuch's shrill voice, he shouted loudly: "Xuanqi envoys come to see you!" ”

Yan Ying was wearing court clothes, her steps were steady, and she slowly walked into the hall calmly.

Ahead

Chu Yu, the empress of Chu State, sat on the dragon chair, graceful and luxurious.

Wearing a phoenix crown, he wears a red and black dragon robe.

Although she is a woman,

But in that gaze, it gives people a kind of majesty that reigns over the world, coupled with that exquisite and beautiful face, which is enough to overwhelm all the splendor in the world.

"Yan Ying, the envoy of the State of Qi, meet His Majesty the State of Chu."

Come to the front of the main hall,

Yan Ying bowed slightly, and her voice was neither humble nor arrogant.

not only gave enough face to the Chu State, but also did not lose the majesty of the Qi State.

Chu Yuyi's face was calm, and his voice said indifferently: "I don't know, what happened when the envoys of the Qi State visited the Chu State?" ”

Yan Ying smiled slightly: "I came here this time, not for anything else, but to save the Chu State." ”

Save Chu?

As soon as the words fell,

The civil and military officials on both sides of the main hall were stunned, and some short-tempered people were even more angry.

Although Da Chu does not have the strength to swallow the four seas and sweep the eight wildernesses in its heyday, it has not fallen to the point where it needs to be rescued by other countries.

Even Chu Yuyi's pretty face, which was as cold as ice, flashed a trace of displeasure.

Then

Sun Shuao took a step forward, looked directly at Yan Ying, and said in a deep voice: "Although the Chu State has experienced a new defeat, the country is still rich all over the world, with a population of millions and thousands of miles of fertile land. ”

Yan Ying still smiled, and said in a calm tone: "The Qin State has been fighting since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, and in the past hundred years, the remnants of the Sixth Dynasty have now had the potential to swallow the world, and they have already shown their fangs and ambitions, I don't know if everyone here is unwilling to admit it or has a fluke mentality, thinking that the turtle can avoid the Qin State's military peak by retreating in Shouchun?" ”

On the dragon chair,

Chu Yuyi couldn't help but clench the slender hand on the armrest.

In fact, it's not just her,

The entire court of the Chu State has been worried about a problem during this time.

That is,

When will the Qin State continue to attack.

After all

No one would simply think that the Qin State would stop there.

Even if the empress dowager of Qin is a native of Chu,

It is also impossible to stop the troops of the Qin State.

Chu Yuyi said coldly: "So, what is the matter with Mr. coming this time?" ”

Yan Ying responded: "Naturally, it is to save Chu." ”

"Your Majesty specially sent me to invite the State of Chu and form an ally with the State of Qi, and then the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu, and Wei will be in full force to resist the eastward advance of the State of Qin."

Chu Yuyi's frowning brows just now stretched out.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a touch of joy flashed on his iceberg-like face.

Then

Sun Shuao opened his mouth and asked: "If the two countries of Chu and Qi can become allies, they will naturally be happy, and there is no need to worry about the military peak of the Qin State from now on." ”

"I just don't know, are there any other conditions for this alliance?"

In the end, it is a good plan,

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

After all, it has been some time since the state of Chu moved its capital, and the state of Qi has only now sent people to form an alliance, and there is no other idea in the middle, and Sun Shuao absolutely does not believe it.

After all

Judging from the current situation in the world,

It's true that the Qin State has the ambition to swallow the world, but your Qi State doesn't seem to be a good thing.

Just when Qin and Chu were fighting,

The state of Qi also poured the whole country's forces to attack the state of Zhao.

Annexed half of the Zhao state.

And before that,

It also annexed Yan, Wu, Yue, and many other small countries.

It can be said that

Even if you are blind or deaf, you can see the ambition of Qi from Qi Guo's actions.

It's just that the difference with the Qin State is that

The state of Qin is a powerful country that changes the law.

And since the beginning of the reform, the Qin State has replaced the Ming monarch.

Even Emperor Wu of Qin, who reigned for the shortest time in the middle, expanded his territory and made great achievements during his three-year reign.

It's just that because of the lifting of the crown, he lifted himself to death.

As for the Qi State,

The stronger one is very abrupt.

Or very suddenly,

It's so sudden that it catches people off guard.

After all, just five years ago, it was still a small country that was trampled under the feet of Yan Guo.

It was not until Han Lin ascended the throne that the state of Qi gradually grew stronger.

However, it is different from the wisdom and martial arts and eloquence of the emperors of the Qin State.

This emperor of Qi is ...... It's very different.

In fact, for the rise of the Qi State,

Many countries have noticed.

But bar,

There's one thing they never understand,

This question actually bothered Ye Qingqiu for a long time.

That is,

Han Lin, as a faint monarch who never paid attention to the government and politics, was obsessed with beauty every day, and was full of all kinds of pleasures every day, how could Han Lin bring the Qi Kingdom to this scale?

That's outrageous.

Even if you scratch your head, you can't figure it out.

The monarchs of some small countries even raised their soul questions, why?

Lao Tzu is conscientious, works hard, and does not dare to slack off every day, just to let his country, in this stormy and turbulent world, survive a little longer, or have a little bit of self-preservation.

But it's such a small request, I don't know how many emperors can't do it in their lifetime.

As a result, when I got to Han Lin,

Eat, drink, and be merry every day, arrogant and lascivious, and lascivious,

And then......

The state of Qi is now a first-class power second only to the state of Qin.

Looking at the world,

With the successive defeats of Chu and Zhao.

It seems that only Qin and Qi are an echelon.

.......

Faced with Sun Shuao's question,

Yan Ying smiled faintly, raised her head and looked directly at the Empress of Chu State, "Actually, there is only one request from the State of Qi, and it only needs the nod of His Majesty the State of Chu." ”

Chu Yuyi frowned slightly, not knowing why, a bad premonition rose in his heart.

But she still asked, "What conditions?" ”

Yan Ying said loudly: "Your Majesty the Emperor of Great Qi, I am willing to marry His Majesty the State of Chu with the world's rivers and mountains as an appointment, and His Majesty the State of Chu will be the Empress of Great Qi at that time, and from then on the two countries of Qi and Chu will be like a family!" ”

Chu Yuyi: "!! ”

Hundred civil and military officials of the State of Chu: "!! ”

The voice fell,

Everyone present, except for Yan Ying,

All looked at Yan Ying with incredulous eyes.

Some people twitched the corners of their mouths, felt their scalps tingle, and their eyes were full of horror.

As for Chu Yuyi himself,

I even suspected that there was something wrong with my ears.

The gaze is equally unbelievable,

The head even stopped functioning directly, as if it was down.

At this moment,

Throughout the hall, it was as if time stood still.

Everyone stood in place, their expressions frozen, and the silence was terrifying.
