The long-lost court meeting made many ministers feel uncomfortable.

However, the time of the last dynasty is quite anthropomorphic.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Han Lin got up and came to the main hall.

As for the ministers, they all slept until dawn before getting up.

This

It all makes many old ministers feel a lot more comfortable. 🅼.𝕍𝙊🅳𝙏𝓦.𝘾🄾🄼

Otherwise

In the past, before dawn, you had to get up and wash up and prepare for the court.

If it's winter, it's even more sinful.

Shivering in the cold wind, and waiting for an hour.

It is said that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

Now let them go back to the original time of the previous dynasty, and day after day, I'm afraid that few can hold on.

"The envoys of Xuanchu State have come to see you!"

When the hundred officials finished the ceremony, with the eunuch shouting, Sun Shuao, who had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time, slowly walked into the hall in court clothes.

Sun Shuao walked calmly, his face was indifferent, he came to the front of the main hall, bowed to Han Lin and said, "Sun Shuao, the envoy of the Chu State, meet His Majesty the Qi State." ”

Hearing this name,

Han Lin subconsciously muttered, "Acquaintance." ”

Sun Shuao was slightly stunned, not understanding what Han Lin said.

In fact, Han Lin heard a familiar name and knew that the other party was the famous prime minister of Chu in history, or Ling Yin.

But what exactly has been done is not clear.

Han Lin didn't care too much about this matter, and went straight to the point, "I don't know what the envoys of the Chu State are doing when they come to the Qi State?" ”

Uncle Sun Ao said in a deep voice: "I came here for the friendship between the Qi State and the Chu State. ”

"The state of Chu is willing to offer twenty cities, including Pengcheng, Qiancheng, Suiyang, Hucheng and other cities, as well as 100,000 taels of gold, 30 million taels of silver, as well as hundreds of ivory, agate, pearls, and gems, as well as 500 beauties of the Chu State, hoping to exchange for the retreat of the Qi army."

Sun Shuao's conditions were the same as what Guan Zhong reported to Han Lin yesterday.

Han Lin, who already knew the content, said with a playful smile, "Is this the dowry of the Chu State?" ”

Dowry?

Hearing the word,

Many Qi officials present showed blank looks.

I don't know how Han Lin was able to say this word suddenly.

Before.

Although Yan Ying ran to Chu to propose,

But only a few people, including Han Lin, knew about it.

Other officials of the Qi State did not know about this.

At this point,

Hearing Han Lin say it so jokingly, Uncle Sun's brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly relaxed.

After all, now, the situation in Chu is precarious.

The survival of the Chu State was all in Han Lin's thoughts.

If it is because of his emotions that he leads to the demise of the Chu State, then he will become the sinner of the Chu State through the ages.

however

Uncle Sun Ao's fleeting expression obviously failed to escape Han Lin's attention.

Han Lin smiled and said softly, "I won't go around in circles with you anymore, you can just say the bottom line." ”

Sun Shuao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The State of Chu is willing to marry the Emperor of Qi, and at that time, my Emperor of Great Chu will become the Empress of the State of Qi, and the two families of Qi and Chu will be one, advancing and retreating together, I don't know what the Emperor of Qi wants?" ”

Hearing this,

Many ministers immediately showed surprised expressions.

I didn't expect Chu Guo to be so shameless.

Seeing that the country was about to be destroyed, he actually wanted this trick to marry the Qi country.

And

Do you want to be the queen of Qi?

Could it be that you are the emperor of Chu State, you really feel that you alone are worthy of the thousands of miles of Chu State?

In the eyes of these ministers, a mere woman is even if the other party is the empress of the Chu State.

But compared with the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Chu State, there is no comparison at all.

It's like a lot of kings, but they are all.

After all, there are a few men who are not.

But in the face of major rights and wrongs, the thieves in people's hearts are clear.

It is impossible to say that for the sake of a woman, such a great opportunity is given up.

But bar,

The key is that Han Lin has a criminal record.

Many ministers clearly remember that when Han Lin first ascended the throne, in the face of the envoys of Yan State, he directly took the imperial barrier Changlin Pass in exchange for the women of Yan State.

At that time, many ministers were frightened.

thought that the Qi State was going to die.

Who would have thought,

It's only been a few years, and it's already reached the point where the Chu State is going to cut the land and sue for peace.

Just when these ministers were suspicious,

Han Lin smiled lightly, "In this case, I seem to have sent someone to the Chu State a few years ago to say it, but it was rejected by you at that time, why is it that now the soldiers are in the city, and suddenly regret it?" ”

Hearing this,

Many ministers breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, they were really worried, but Han Lin suddenly became lustful, and directly agreed to Chu Guo's request.

After all, in the eyes of these ministers,

Now that the Qi army is coming to the city, they are seeing that they are working harder, and they can annex the Chu State.
