Lin Feng stretched out his hand to hold Yan Zichu's saluting arm and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Yan is polite."

Yan Zichu said: "Master Zhenguo, please."

"please!"

Lin Feng nodded.

The two of them entered the hall with their own thoughts, and the host and guest took their seats.

Yan Zichu's old and tired face looked a little serious, and he said slowly: "The Duke has just entered Linzi. He has to govern the country of Qi and sort out all the various parts of the country. There are so many things going on, how can he have time to come to the old man's house? What? The Duke has something to do. All he needs to do is make arrangements, and there is no need to come in person."

Lin Feng smiled slightly and said: "Prime Minister Yan is in Qi State and is highly respected. When I arrive in Qi State, I should naturally come to visit him."

Yan Zichu quickly shook his head and said humbly: "The Duke has become an old man."

Lin Feng continued: "Although the State of Qi has been destroyed, Prime Minister Yan is the head of the officials of the State of Qi and is respected by countless people. To put it bluntly, at least 80% of the officials in the officialdom of the State of Qi have received Thanks to Prime Minister Yan’s support.”

Yan Zichu waved his hands quickly, a look of panic appeared on his old face, and explained: "The words are serious, the Duke's words are serious."

Lin Feng stopped talking in circles and said, "I came here today to ask for help from Prime Minister Yan."

Yan Zichu said quickly: "The Duke's words made me even more frightened. If you have anything to do, just ask me, and I will do my best."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "I want Prime Minister Yan to stand up and take the initiative to serve Qin."

brush!

Yan Zichu's expression changed slightly.

coming!

What he was most worried about finally came to pass. Now that the Qi State has surrendered and been destroyed, Yan Zichu's idea is very simple. He wants to retreat and live in seclusion without paying attention to worldly affairs.

At least, he is still a loyal minister of Qi State and worthy of the ancestors of Qi State.

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng came to the door in person.

Lin Feng asked him to submit as soon as he opened his mouth, which put Yan Zichu in a dilemma.

If you reject Lin Feng, you will definitely pay a price. Lin Feng would even target him, or people from the Yan family. There is a price for complying with Lin Feng. He will not be able to do what he wants and will be criticized by countless people.

Especially before, Sun Jiuzhang led people to persuade him to surrender, but he would not interfere. Now Sun Jiuzhang had just surrendered with the little emperor, and he stood up and surrendered hurriedly. This was like being a bitch and still wanting to build a memorial arch.

After Yan Zichu thought for a moment, he asked tentatively: "My lord, can I refuse this?"

"sure!"

Lin Feng answered with a smile.

He narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "If you choose to refuse, I will not interfere or stop you. The final result is that the Yan family will gradually wither. Because you live in seclusion, no one in the Yan family will be killed by Qin." If you are not accepted by the country, you will not be able to serve as an official, and you can only live in obscurity for the rest of your life."

Yan Zichu secretly said that it was true.

This is the price.

Lin Feng smiled brightly and continued: "Prime Minister, if you want to get something, you always need to pay. It is impossible to get it without giving at all. The descendants of your Yan family must give if they want to get benefits."

"Your contribution determines whether the descendants of the Yan family can have a smooth life and whether they can enjoy preferential treatment. Without this, why should I give you benefits? Even though you feel comfortable, you make things difficult for Da Qin and want to let Da Qin suffer. It is impossible for the descendants of the Yan family to benefit."

Lin Feng said: "It's a very simple reason. If you make things difficult for Great Qin, Great Qin will also make things difficult for the Yan family."

Yan Zichu's cheeks twitched and he sighed in his heart, this is how tricky Lin Feng is.

Lin Feng has always been ruthless in his actions.

Although Yan Zichu said he had a choice, in fact according to Lin Feng's arrangement, Lin Feng had no choice.

He thought for a while and said: "No need to say more, I am willing to take the lead in surrendering. When the Duke returns to the camp, I will go to the military camp to meet the Duke in person."

"Okay, I'm waiting for you to come."

A smile appeared on Lin Feng's face.

He didn't stay long, stood up and said goodbye: "I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave."

Yan Zichu suddenly said: "My lord, please wait."

Lin Feng smiled half-heartedly and said, "Prime Minister Yan wants to ask, have I gone to find Tian Yu?"

Yan Zichu said: "The Duke is wise."

Lin Feng said: "I first went to the palace and negotiated with Tian Yu before I came to see Prime Minister Yan. Tian Yu had already promised to restrain the clan so that the clan members of Qi would submit to him honestly. Tian Yu is responsible for the clan of Qi State, and the prime minister is responsible for the civil servants of Qi State."

Yan Zichu said: "Thank you so much, Lord, for clearing up the confusion."

Lin Feng left directly.

When he achieves his goal, he won't say anything more. After all, the task has been completed.

Lin Feng returned to the military camp and continued to handle some government affairs in the army. After a battle, he would report to the court and report the results of the battle. At the same time, there are many things to ask the court to arrange for pensions, awards, etc.

Even with the help of Zhou Zheng and others, there are still many things to do.

While Lin Feng was handling government affairs, not long after, Gao Xiaoyu came in to report that Yan Zichu had come to visit.

After Lin Feng got the news, he went to the camp gate to greet him personally and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Yan, welcome."

Yan Zichu felt quite depressed when he saw Lin Feng coming in person and the people around him.

Why did Lin Feng come in person?

Obviously, the news of Corporal Lin Fenglixian's welcome will soon spread throughout Linzi and throughout Qi. As the former prime minister of Qi, Yan Zichu personally visited Lin Feng outside the Qin army camp to seek a better future after Qi surrendered.

This was the purpose why Lin Feng asked him to come.

This is Lin Feng's plan.

Lin Feng was a trap, but Yan Zichu couldn't avoid it, so he had no choice but to admit it.

Yan Zichu had a smile on his face and said: "I came to see Duke Zhen Guo because I hope to serve Duke Zhen Guo and ask him to accept me."

He put his hands together and bowed.

Yan Zichu knew that he had no way out, so if he wanted to do something, he must do it well. Anyway, you have to bear the reputation of surrender, so why not do a better job.

"Prime Minister, please!"

Lin Feng waved his hand and led Yan Zichu into the military camp, and the two had an awkward conversation.

Not long after, when night fell, Lin Feng persuaded Yan Zichu to stay for dinner, and then personally sent Yan Zichu out of the military camp.

After everything was done, Lin Feng had the news spread from Heibingtai in the blink of an eye. When the news spread, countless people in the official circles of Qi were in an uproar. Yan Zichu had been avoiding suspicion before and was unwilling to surrender to Qin.

Now, take the initiative to reach out.

Many people lamented, and some even ridiculed Yan Zichu, thinking that Yan Zichu was hypocritical.

No matter what people in the market thought, after the news came out, some Qi officials who were unwilling to submit to Qin completely lost their support. These people who stick to Qi State and still recognize Qi State, Yan Zichu and Tian Yu have never expressed their stance, they have support.

Now, the pillars are crumbling.

Those who supported Qi State completely lost their confidence.

This was Yan Zichu's situation, but this result was what Lin Feng needed.

Qi State is gone, Qi State does not need loyal ministers, Qi State does not need Optimus Prime, and it does not need a benchmark that everyone recognizes. Today's Qi State, it is best to dissipate silently and eventually disappear into the dust.

This is the best result.

After Lin Feng relied on Yan Zichu to operate, and with Yan Zichu taking the lead, it became easier to recruit and surrender officials from Qi State, and the handling of Qi State's clan was also progressing rapidly.

Lin Feng sat in Linzi and began to adjust the local area. At the same time, Wang Lie and Xun Peng were asked to send troops to further attack various parts of Qi State, and all the remaining areas of Qi State that had not surrendered were included in Qi State.

After all, Lin Feng must arrange these things properly.

Prince Yingxi was in the south, and Huan Suzhi was assisting him. As for Qi State, Lin Feng had not received the imperial edict to withdraw his troops for the time being. Qi State was another big problem, so Lin Feng could only sit in charge temporarily and handle the local affairs personally. The problem.
