One day, King Yan set up a banquet in the palace, ordered Zizhi and Su Dai and others to accompany him, and Lu Maoshou stood behind Zizhi. Yan Wang Hao asked the ministers present:

"Tell me, who can dominate today? Is it Qi or Qin, or Chu?"

"King Qi must not be overpowered!" Su Dai took the opportunity to say.

"Why?" asked King Yan.

"The King of Qi doesn't trust his ministers, in contrast, the King of Qin has deep faith in Zhang Yi and the others!" Su Dai's words were intended to inspire King Yan to fully trust Zizhi.

"Zizhi is comparable to Zhou Gong, although I am not a minor Chengwang Jiyun, but I have absolute trust in Zizhi!"

"Not necessarily!" said Su Dai deliberately:

"I heard the sages say: 'In the past, Yu recommended Boyi to be his successor, but the people used by Yu were close to his son Qi. After Yu passed the world to Boyi, Qi and his party attacked Boyi and quickly recaptured the world. People in the world say that Yu nominally passed the world to Boyi, but in fact it was just to gain fame, and then let his son Qi seize the world. Now the king says that he trusts Zizhi, and the officials in the court are all people who are Tai Ziping, which is nominally trusting Zizhi, but in fact the power is still in the hands of Tai Ziping. ”

After hearing this, King Yan put away the official seals of the officials with more than 300 stones in the court and handed them to Zizhi, indicating that he had handed over all the power to Zizhi. Soon after, Zizhi almost completely controlled the Yan Kingdom, often standing in front of the throne and giving orders to the ministers, but he didn't sit down, and Yan Wang didn't ask about political affairs all day long, and everything was handed over to Zizhi. Zizhi felt that the time had come, so he asked Lu Maoshou to say to Yan Wangxu:

"People praise Emperor Yao Sage because he wants to give the world Zen to Xu You, Xu You did not accept it, Yao got the good name of Zen to let the world but did not lose the world. It is better for the king to give up the throne to the prime minister Zizhi, and the sage of the son will definitely not accept it, so that the virtue of the king can be compared with a sage like Di Yao!"

When King Yan heard this, he wanted to give up the throne to Zizhi, and Prince Ping was so anxious when he heard about this that he was ready to unite with the general city to get rid of the prime minister Zizhi. The city was an old minister of Yan State, leading 100,000 troops to garrison the important town of Wuyang of Yan State. Wuyang is about 100 miles southwest of the Jidu of Yan State, and is an important military town for Yan State to defend Qi State and Zhao Wei and other countries. The city was heavily armed, and he had always been loyal to King Yan Yi, and he was very dissatisfied with Zizhi's villainous behavior, so he hit it off with Prince Ping. Although Taiziping was supported by the city, he still felt unsafe, so he went to see Qi Xuan Wang Tian in person overnight. Tian Pijiang seems to be honest, but in fact, he has ill intentions, hoping that the Yan Kingdom will be in chaos, and after learning that the prince is coming to him, he said to him:

"Gongzi is not only the eldest son of Yan, but also the prince of Yan, and the rightful heir to the throne, this is an indisputable fact!

When the prince heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately resigned from the king of Qi, and when he arrived in Wuyang and the city, he was ready to immediately send troops to attack Jidu and eradicate the cadres of Ziyi.

In the spring of 314 B.C., the general city of Yan was officially raised to attack Jidu, and Prince Taiping also gathered people in Jidu City, preparing to join forces with the city of Jidu.

Zizhi had long been on guard against the city, and had already transferred 200,000 troops from the periphery to garrison in the north of the city. The city was long with red hair, and wearing a red robe and a red tassel, riding on a red horse, holding a double knife, hanging a double gong from the waist, all the way to the thistle. Although Zizhi had to deal with it, the city was extremely brave, and the army transferred by Zizhi was unwilling to kill each other among the Yan troops, so the city was quickly killed in Jidu and surrounded the capital. Seeing that the time had come, the prince raised an army in the city to kill Xiang Zizhi. One of the sons sent heavy troops to defend the city, and on the other hand, he sent part of the Praetorian Guards to fight with the people of Taiziping in the city.

Zizhi is tall and ruthless, and the people of Yan do not like him; Yan Wang is kind and benevolent, although he is confused, but most of the people support him, so most of the people in the city also help Prince Ping. Zizhi was about to kill Prince Ping several times, but he failed to do so, and the soldiers were unwilling to fight for him.

The two sides were in a stalemate for several days, and the city was finally breached and led troops into the city. Zizhi led all his troops to resist desperately, and the two sides formed a confrontation in the city. At this time, Zizhi knew that it was difficult to last, so he had to turn to Lu Maoshou for help.

At night, Lu Maoshou disguised himself as an old woman and entered the city position controlled by the city alone. When the people in the city saw an unarmed old woman, they didn't care, and when Lu Maoshou approached, he was deliberately controlled by his consciousness. At this time, Lu Maoshou's intentions have improved compared to the past when he was in the Jixia School Palace, so he can easily deceive the guards, as if he was in a no-man's land.

Lu Maoshou quickly found the city quilt, and seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he immediately began to cast spells on him. This matter is a matter of life and death, and Lu Maoshou used all his strength to transmit his thoughts over and over again into the sleeping city quilt's brain. Because he was in the enemy camp, Lu Maoshou's motives were not pure, and it was inevitable that he would have distracting thoughts when casting the spell, and later, he felt that his mind began to ache faintly, so he quickly collected his thoughts and secretly left. After several days of fighting, the city was so tired that he slept all night, and when he woke up the next day, he suddenly realized that he said to himself:

"I almost fell for the prince!"

The city was weak in his sleep, and it was easy to be spelled by Lu Mao Shou, Lu Mao Shou said, "Prince Ping is a villain, he will kill you after he kills Zizhi, you go and kill him!" while entering his brain again, City was suddenly awakened, and for a time Lu Mao Shou's thoughts completely occupied his brain, and it was difficult to clear it in a short time, so he believed it and immediately took his subordinates to attack Prince Ping.

Seeing that the city was suddenly flooded, Prince Ping was caught off guard, and he couldn't figure out what was going on, so he had to retreat all the way, fight and retreat, and flee outside the city. When I arrived outside the city, the city was blown by the cold wind, and I was suddenly stunned, feeling that something was wrong, but I was confused and it was still difficult to return to normal. In the confusion, the city subconsciously stopped chasing and killing Prince Taiping, and returned to the city with his men. The subordinates of the city were also at a loss when they saw that the city was turned to attack Taiziping, but at this time, Lu Maoshou shouted along the street: "The city has been surrendered to the prime minister! The city has been surrendered!" Zizhi and Lu Maoshou took the opportunity to lead people to surround the city quilt and killed the city that was still ignorant.

Prince Ping fled to the outside of the city, had to go to the Qi country, just arrived at the border of Qi Yan, met the army led by the general Kuang Zhang of the Qi state, and then returned to attack Jidu with Kuang Zhang.

Seeing that Prince Ping and the army of Qi were together, there was almost no resistance all the way, and Kuang Zhang waved his army straight down, and soon attacked Jidu, the capital of Yan State.

Zizhi personally supervised the battle and organized the soldiers in the city to resist, and Kuang Zhang was difficult to attack the city for a while. A few days later, the soldiers defending the city saw that Zizhi was lax, secretly opened the city gate, and let the army of Qi enter the city. As soon as the army of Qi entered the capital, they killed Zizhi and others to the point that they lost their armor and fled in all directions.

Seeing that the general trend was gone, Lu Maoshou pretended to be an old woman again, let one of the people around him wear his clothes, and performed a spell on him. In the midst of the confusion, the man shouted:

"I'm Lu Mao Shou!"

When the soldiers of Qi heard this, two people came over and hacked him to death. Lu Maoshou waited for the Qi soldiers to leave, scratched the man's face, and sneaked away in the chaos.

Zizhi hid in the palace with the remnants of the defeated army, and the Qi army quickly entered the palace under the guidance of Prince Taiping, killed Zizhi, and killed him together with Yanyi Wang Ji Hao in the chaos. Kuang Zhang caught Su Dai because he was Su Qin's younger brother, so he didn't kill him.

Kuang Zhang didn't expect the capital of Yan Kingdom to be breached by him so easily, and stood on the steps in front of the palace hall and laughed. Qi soldiers entered the flowery world of the capital of Yan Kingdom, and saw that the people of Yan Kingdom were hiding everywhere, and the soldiers and civilians were disheartened, so they took the opportunity to rob property and spoil women.

When King Xuan of Qi learned that Kuang Zhang had won Yandu, he summoned Mencius and asked:

"The kingdom of Yan is at your fingertips, what does Mencius think?"

"Heaven treats the king favorably, and intends to give the kingdom of Yan to the king, how can the king not take it!" Mencius said.

"Okay! just according to Aiqing's words!" said King Qi Xuan happily. At this time, King Xuan of Qi reused Mencius, and liked to listen to his opinion on everything.

Kuang Zhang then took the opportunity to march in four directions, captured the entire territory of Yan in one go, and wiped out the entire Yan Kingdom with only 100,000 soldiers and horses. Taking advantage of the chaos of the Yan Kingdom, Zhongshan also took the opportunity to capture more than a dozen cities of the Yan Kingdom, expanding the land area by one-third.

Qi soldiers burned, killed and looted in Yan State, and did evil everywhere, and the people of Yan Country complained and regretted it. originally thought that Qi Bing was the division of King Qin to save the country, but he did not expect that now he has become the division of tigers and wolves. Prince Ping looked for Kuang Zhang's theory and asked Kuang Zhang to help him ascend to the throne and restore order in Yan Kingdom, but Kuang Zhang ignored him. The people of Yan began to resent Prince Taiping, believing that he attracted the army of tigers and wolves, causing chaos in the country, and now even the country is dead.

Kuang Zhang occupied the Yan State, refused to help the prince Ping ascend the throne, and became the lord of a country, and the news soon spread all over the world, and the princes of various countries were shaken. Qi was originally a powerful country in the world, but now it occupies the entire territory of Yan State, another big country, once it is confirmed, it will inevitably be proud of the world, and the world will not be able to compete with it.

King Qin was the first to sit still after learning about it, and the King of Chu was unwilling to sit idly by after hearing this, King Zhao Wuling was especially jealous of Zhongshan Kingdom becoming bigger, and he was even more unwilling to sit idly by, Han Wei had always been squeezed by Qi State, and naturally he was also jealous in his heart. The five countries hit it off, and the pace was much more unified than the previous joint attack on Qin, so they agreed to jointly attack Qi and recover Yan.

When the king of Qi heard about this, he came to Mencius to discuss, and said to Mencius:

"Aiqing persuaded the widows to capture the Yan Kingdom in the past, and now the five countries have come together to attack my Qi Kingdom, what does Aiqing think?"

"In the past, the king sent troops to eradicate disasters and uphold justice, and he was a righteous army! Now the Qi soldiers have lost their morality in the Yan country, causing resentment among the people, which is already contrary to justice! Since it is contrary to justice, I think the king should withdraw his troops!" Mencius said.

King Qi Xuan was displeased in his heart, and he had to let him vomit out the meat in his stomach, how could he be willing!

"What does Aiqing think?" Although Tian Wen did not pay homage to the prime minister at this time, his reputation was getting louder and louder, and he was gradually emerging, so King Qi Xuan also wanted to hear his opinion.

"Withdraw the troops!" Tian Wen said categorically.

"Oh?" King Qi Xuan said suspiciously, and felt that he had something to say, so he asked again:

"What about after the withdrawal?"

Now that the five kingdoms are attacking our country in the name of Kuang Yan, once the king withdraws his troops, they will lose the reason to attack our Qi country! The king can first talk to the prince about the conditions to help him ascend the throne, and the prince will definitely agree to the king, and the king has nominally left the Yan country, but in fact still controls the Yan country, so that the immediate crisis is solved, and the benefits are also obtained, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!" Tian Wendao.

"Well, this is reasonable, what do you think?" asked King Qi Xuan to his ministers.

"Although the king is willing to withdraw his troops, I am afraid that the king of Zhongshan will not!" Su Qin said coldly.

"The king used the reason of persuading the king of Zhongshan to withdraw his troops, so that Kuang Zhangtun troops at the border of Qiyan, first, can deter Taiziping, and secondly, in the future, he can share the city with Zhongshan Guogua, so it can also be!" Tian Wendao.

Most of the ministers agreed, Su Qin said no more, and King Qi Xuan ordered Kuang Zhang to withdraw his troops.

Seeing that the king of Qi ordered the withdrawal of troops, the five kingdoms had to stop the matter of attacking Qi for the time being. The crown prince wanted to ascend the throne and become the king, but there was opposition from top to bottom in the Yan Kingdom, and Meng Huan took the lead in opposing after Yan Yi, and the Yan Kingdom was in chaos.

Meng Huan's son Gongzi was hostage in Korea, and at this time, the crown prince was completely lost, and Meng Huan intended to let his son Gongzi ascend the throne as king, so he immediately sent a letter to King Qin Huiwen, asking his father for help.

The motives of the kings when they saw that although the Qi State had withdrawn its troops on the surface, it had made Kuang Zhang's troops at the border! In addition, the King of Zhongshan had occupied more than a dozen cities in the Yan State and refused to withdraw his troops, which also made the five kings feel uneasy. The King of Qin has the intention of helping his daughter Meng Huan, Wei Zhao and Zhongshan have always been at odds, and King Wuling of Zhao has the intention of destroying the Zhongshan Kingdom, so they began to plan, intending to discuss the matter of Qi Kuangyan again.
