After the interview, Han Ping did not dare to stay for a long time and resigned. The prince and Huang Xie escorted Han Ping out but did not leave. Yu Qing also bowed and brought them back into the hall.

After Yu Qing sat down, he actually took the initiative to talk about the floods in Zhao State: "Wei introduced Ji into the garden, and gained thousands of hectares of fertile land, which Zhao also envied. Zhao had Zhangshui, which also entered the river, twisting and turning to the west. In the past, Ximen Leopard of Wei Twelve canals were opened to divert Zhang from Ye, and Ye was greatly prospered. Wang Nai wanted to divert Zhang to Handan. Fu Wuping was also the western city of Handan, which should involve Wu'an. Wang Nai used the east of Zhang to introduce it to the west of Wuping, and then went south to Ming. . The canal was just completed, but heavy rains on the mountain caused the water to overflow and destroy all the houses. It is really a shame that it failed! Not only this, the river also overflowed and poured back into the giant deer and sand dunes. "

Huang Xie said: "The river overflowed and caused disaster. I didn't hear the news from Wei. How could the disaster only happen to Zhao?"

Yu Qing said: "Huang Gong didn't know. The river flows from Qiang, so it is divided into north and south roads, and the Zhang River flows into the north road. Therefore, Zhao is affected by the disaster, but Wei is safe."

Huang Xie felt deeply that his knowledge was insufficient, and said in confusion: "How can I know what Wei Qing said? Is it free for the king to introduce Zhang to Wuping?"

Yu Qing was a little wary and said: "It doesn't cost much. It only takes a few miles to enter Wuping. The rivers will become swamps, the people will be happy, and they will gain a lot. If you want to go south again, you will encounter big troubles. It won't take long."

Huang Xie noticed that Yu Qing was starting to be wary and answered questions selectively, so he changed the topic and said: "The guest will be in peace with the host. When I enter Qin, the Chu soldiers will be dispersed outside the city. But when Qin enters Zhao, it wants to enter by force." , which is inappropriate and inappropriate."

Speaking of what happened just now, Yu Qing became angry again and said: "We cannot talk about etiquette and justice in a country of barbarians!" Suddenly he found that the prince and Huang Xie present here also came from a "country of barbarians", so he quickly made up for it. : "How can he be as talented as Chu Zhi!"

Huang Xie laughed it off and said: "Although Chu has talents, Jin can use them. Chu is a small and remote country. It has admired China for a long time, imitating it with hands, and wants to learn."

Yu Qing said: "No. There is Qu Ziyuan of Chu, a famous writer in China. All my students will admire him!"

Huang Xie said: "Unfortunately for our city, the capital of Ying fell. Quzi was so angry that he sank into the pond. It's really a shame!"

Yu Qing said: "In the past, when Qin attacked Ying, we were all shocked. How could Chu be so strong that the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed overnight?"

Huang Xie said: "This is also time and luck. At that time, the Chu army was all in the east, so it was taken by Qin. When Chu came to Chenye, it collected its remnants, but it was still enough to resist. Chu's territory was five thousand miles away, although it lost a thousand miles away from Ying. , it’s enough to be a big country.”

Yu Qing repeatedly said so, saying: "Given the strength of Qin, no one in the world can resist it; anyone who can resist it is almost Chu."

Huang Xie said: "Chu is not alone. Since Zhao Wang's reform, Qin did not dare to spy on Zhao for twenty years, how could he be a successor?"

Yu Qing said: "Zhao has dangerous mountains and rivers, so it can protect the land of its ancestors. If we are to enter the pass and compete with the king of Qin, no one but Chu can do it."

Huang Xie said: "In the past, those who could enter Guanzhong and compete with Qin were almost Wei, but now all the land of Wei and Shanxi has entered Qin. Thirty years ago, Lord Mengchang led the allied forces of Qi, Han, and Wei to break through Han Valley and fight with Qin. Fighting in the Qin Dynasty. However, Qin and Wei Hedong and Han Wu then made peace. Looking for it, Qi was defeated by Yan, and almost destroyed the country! Thinking about the past, those who entered Han Valley were few, and those who were able to survive were unheard of. !”

Yu Qing said: "It's true as the public said. However, although Zhao is strong and strong, Qin will not yield. In the past, Qin wanted to use the He clan's jade to deceive Zhao, so he relied on Lin Qing to return the jade to Zhao intact. At the Mianchi meeting, Qin insulted Zhao several times. , but Zhao Jian did not surrender. Today, Zhao general Jia Yan and his subordinates 30,000 people were drowned in the river, and Zhao Jian did not surrender to Qin. The people of Yan and Zhao sang many tragic songs generously, but none of them bowed their knees to others."

Huang Xie sighed and said: "This is not the case in our city. There are many people who bend their knees and live in vain. They are as afraid of Qin as a tiger. When they heard that Qin had defeated the three Jin Dynasties, they eagerly used the prince as a pledge to seek peace. I regretted that the prince Fang Guan left the country."

Yu Qing was surprised and said: "Isn't it that the prince came to Han to sacrifice the king of Han? Why did he become a hostage to Qin?"

Huang Xie said: "After the King of Han was buried, he followed Lord Jingyang into Qin in his chariot!"

Yu Qing clicked her tongue and sighed: "Poor prince..."

Huang Xie said: "Our city can only get generous and tragic people like Yan and Zhao, how can the prince be a hostage?"

Yu Qing said: "Since Chu is so strong, why should we make peace with Qin? This is not wise. Chu has a country five thousand miles away, with the bravery of Wu and Yue and the wealth of Chen and Cai. Although Yunmeng is lost, Jianghan is still there. How can it be? He has no strength to fight. As soon as the prince is taken hostage, Qin has no choice but to listen to his orders, and Qin Suo has no choice but to give. Even if he has a land of five thousand miles, Qin Yan will be tired of it!"

Huang Xie said: "It's exactly what you said. Now that things are like this, what plan will you come up with?"

Yu Qing said: "Why not break Qin's agreement and return to Chu, for Qin will not dare to move."

Huang Xie said: "It's not a plan. In the past, when our king was the prince, he was held hostage by Qin and returned secretly. Qin repeatedly attacked and Chu was defeated. The former king and Qin met at Wuguan, and the king of Qin forced him to stay. The former king was unyielding and died in his hometown, and the people of Chu mourned it. The people of Qi invaded Hangu in one fell swoop, and Qin ceded the land for peace. Where justice lies, the benevolent are invincible. It is unjust to allow the prince to take him as hostage and carry him on his back. "It is unkind to abandon the whole world for the sake of one person's safety. If you are unkind and unjust, you will definitely lose the war."

After hearing this, Yu Qing was confused: You obviously want me to come up with the idea, but you still want to put a lot of big names on me. If you are unkind and unjust, you will lose the war! He asked Huang Xie a little angrily: "What will happen with the public's intention?"

Huang Xie said: "In the past, Wu was weak and Chu was strong. Wu Zixu said: 'If you are tired, you will be tired, and you will be mistaken in many ways. Now that you are tired, you will follow it with three armies, and you will be able to defeat it.' The soldiers broke through Chu and entered Ying. Whip the king's corpse to pieces. The current plan is not to use "multiple ways to mislead him". When the prince enters the Qin Dynasty, he must devise many ways to mislead the Qin Dynasty, and he will definitely tire him out!"

Yu Qing was helpless after hearing this and said: "If this is true, then the world will be very lucky."

In the evening, Tian Danbao, the crown prince of Qi, was built in Zheng, and the Han envoys were still introduced to the Han officials to live in the fiefdom. Huang Xie sent someone to ask questions, and the Qi people replied: "The sky is dark, the people are tired, and the horses are exhausted. I'm afraid it will be rude, but I'll wait for the day!" They refused to meet.

Almost at the same time, Wei general Duanzi Qianbao and his son Xinlingjun entered Huayang, accompanied by hundreds of chariots, thousands of visitors and thousands of soldiers, making Huayang full.

The next day, under the guidance of the Korean envoy, Lord Xinling and his entourage came towards Zhengcheng like an overwhelming number of people with bright costumes, sharp armor and troops, and neat troops. The Korean envoy did not receive any special treatment and still arranged to stay in a city.

But Chu's spies immediately got bad news: Wei Gongzi's retainers had visited the Qin envoy at night, and the two sides talked for about an hour. This made Huang Xie's heart skip a beat. Did he think that Wei, the most unlikely country, wanted to join forces with Qin?

He quickly sent envoys to contact Qi and Wei for meetings. This time it was all agreed.

Logically speaking, Qi and Chu were considered enemies, because in the battle when the coalition forces broke through the capital of Qi, Chu was also considered a member of the coalition, and Chu general Nao Chi personally killed the then King of Qi. Although Nao Chi himself was later killed by the angry Qi people, the Chu army finally occupied Huaiyang.

Tian Dan, Prince Jian, Huang Xie, and Prince Wan met each other for the first time. After a short period of routine etiquette, the meeting quickly entered the rhythm of swords and swords.

Tian Dan was the first to speak: "Our city was guilty of the crime of the princes, and the whole world fought together. King Min rushed to Ju. When the Chu army came to help, the king regarded Naochi as his prime minister and the pillar of the country. However, he was killed by Naochi in one dynasty. , died tragically in the ancestral temple. Fortunately, Qi was not destroyed, and the king regained the land of the whole country with only two cities. However, Chu still held the land on Huaishang, betraying trust and abandoning righteousness, which is not the behavior of a well-dressed scholar!"

Huang Xie said: "When King Min was established, he attacked Chu in the south at Chuisha, and attacked Qin in the west at Hangu. There was no one in the world who could defeat him. Why did he make the world laugh at him in one day, and kill the country's gates himself? He did not show kindness and righteousness, and he was not prepared for etiquette. . So when we arrived at the Wei, the Wei people invaded, and went to Zou, Lu, Zou, and Lu Fen. After being frightened, we entered Ju. Then we accepted the rebel general Nao Chi as the prime minister, and used the Chu army who attacked Qi as the Qiancheng. It is not appropriate to die in the country! I have heard that King Min did not die in Naochi, but actually died in Juren. Prince Fazhang ran around in panic and was a slave in Taishi's house. This is known to everyone. Taishi's daughter Marrying without a matchmaker is also known to the world! Naochi was the prime minister of King Min, and he died with the king in Ju. He was not loyal to Chu, but his righteousness was fulfilled to Qi! As for the land of Huaiyang, it belongs to Chu. It was stolen by thieves, and it is inappropriate to return it to its old owner!"

Tian Dan said angrily: "Qi lost its old capital, and defended it with two cities for five years, but still regained its old capital. Now that Chu has lost Ying, he is as busy as a bereaved dog, running around Chenqiu, and he never knows the misfortunes and blessings that will come overnight. It is still like a raging fire. Benevolence and righteousness!"

Huang Xie said: "Chu destroyed our capital and destroyed our king's tomb. We hate each other for this! Although Chu has three households, Chu must be the one who destroys Qin! But Chu is not the only one who destroys Qi. The six countries all join forces. However, Qi only relies on Chu. !"

Tian Dan said: "The one who captured our country was Yan. Fang Yan was so prosperous that he conquered more than seventy cities of Qi. Qi swept them in one battle, and all the cities were restored. Yan lived in a corner and waited for death. The other countries were together. There is no place to capture Qi. The one we captured is the land of Song Dynasty. It is not Qi Qi. However, Chu still lives in the land above Huai River. It is not obtained from Song Dynasty. It is also the hometown of Qi. It is not appropriate to be obsessed with Chu! "

Huang Xie said: "It's not as you said. The land on Huaishang, the old things of Chu, do not belong to Qi. It is appropriate to return them now. If I attack Qi, Qin will be the first to make the decision; if I take the nine cities of Qi, Qin will be the first to ascend. You will take the initiative." Qin ignored it and only committed crimes against Chu, which is unacceptable to the king. "

Tian Dan said: "Although Qin is the most powerful in the world, the only country bordering Qi is Tao. If Tao is the land of Song, it is not the land of Qi, so we dare not attack!"

Huang Xie said: "The king lost his old capital in the past, and Chu's old country was newly destroyed. The song on the river goes like this: we feel pity for each other when we are sick, and we save each other when we are worried. This is what Qi and Chu are called."

When Tian Dan heard this, he pondered half his salary and said, "Huang Gong must have a plan."

Huang Xie said: "The attack on Qi has been going on for more than ten years. It may be as strong as the prince. Don't talk about it when it is done. Don't admonish it when it is done. Don't blame the past. I hope that neither Qi nor Chu will be blamed."

Tian Dan thought for a while and said: "There is nothing you can do if you are far away, but if Dan Dan has one day, I hope you will not take the blame."

Huang Xie said: "Although Qi and Chu are enemies, we share our hearts and lose our liver and gallbladder. Although each is his own master, our plans are the same. Qin is the only powerful country, which is not a blessing to the world. The world is fighting against Qin, and I hope Qi can help secretly." Of!"

Tian Dan said: "The king of Qi came to the throne, and the Taishi's daughter was the queen. The king listened to his plans. The king and the queen said, "Be careful about Qin and trust the princes. If the princes fight with Qin, Qi will not dare to fight!"
