The pavilions and pavilions are decorated with carved beams and paintings, and the bells and chimes are playing music.
In the splendid Palace of Wei, under the flying arches, the musicians plucked the strings with their green fingers, and the ladies gently struck the bells with their beautiful arms.
The sound of the guqin and the tinkling of the bells can't help but arouse the hearts of everyone in the hall.
Amber wine, jasper glasses, gold-footed bottles, and emerald plates, the food was like a picture, and the wine was like a spring. The courtiers of Wei State were changing cups and cups, and their eyes couldn't help but look at the old figure on the king's couch.
It had been a long time since they had seen their king as happy as he was today.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, now our Wei Kingdom has defeated the strong Qin in the west and the weak and strong Qi in the east. It will be just around the corner for our great Wei Dynasty to regain Xihe." At this time, the drunken Chief Wei Li bowed to the king of Wei who was leading him. road.
Wei Li imposed all the blame for Qi's defeat of Qin and the three Jin's retreat on Qi, but the ministers of Wei felt that there was nothing wrong with it at this time.
Wei's general Zhai Zhang was a sober man. Hearing what Wei Li said, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Zhai Zhang was the successor of Zhai Huang, the prime minister in Wei Wenhou's period. He studied under Pang Juan. After Pang Juan died in battle, Zhai Zhang inherited Pang Juan's position and became the new chief general of Wei.
Although in the west, they were very passive against Qin's war situation, in the hinterland, they were still very good at cleaning up the subordinate states and defending the country. Zhai Zhang attacked the Wei State several times, captured many cities in the Wei State, and intercepted many treasures from the Wei State, which replenished the deficit of the Wei Dynasty, which had repeatedly raised troops to fight against Qin.
The leader of Wei's unified battle this time was Zhai Zhang. He was most aware of the danger of the situation at that time. If it hadn't been for Korea and Zhao to send troops to help at a critical moment, I am afraid that the Qi army would have already reached Daliang City by now.
Zhai Zhang raised his head and glanced at Wei Ying. He didn't want to disturb his interest, so he shut up angrily.
…
In the middle of the grand banquet, the king of Wei gently waved his sleeves and robes. Seeing this, the musicians and ladies hurriedly bowed and exited the hall.
Wei Wangying naturally ignored Wei Li's flattery. He knew very well how much his family weighed.
He turned his head and said to Gongsun Yan who was sitting cross-legged below him: "Xishou, this time it's your fault that I and the state of Wei have been saved from a disaster. If you want any reward, just ask."
"I don't dare to ask for reward. I just did what I should do to atone for my past mistakes." At this point, Gongsun Yan wiped tears from the corners of his eyes, showing his true feelings.
The ministers of Wei State present here naturally know what Gongsun Yan means by atonement.
"Rhinoceros head, please don't say this. As my father said at that time, the things of the past have long since disappeared. Today, if rhinoceros head can return to his motherland, he has redeemed his past mistakes." The prince heir spoke at the right time.
When the prince was young, he was a hostage in the state of Qin.
In the past, Qin and Wei fought in Hexi, and the Wei army was defeated. Wei Si was dissatisfied, so he deliberately provoked Qin in Xianyang, and finally accidentally killed a Qin man.
According to the law of Qin, the murderer must pay for his life. If Gongsun Yan had not forcefully saved him at the critical moment, he would have been dead, let alone the current crown prince of Wei.
Wei Si always kept this feeling secretly in his heart.
"Servant, I don't dare to ask for the understanding of my king! I don't dare to ask for the understanding of the people of Wei State! I only wish to use what I have learned throughout my life to work for the State of Wei.
My dear, I am willing to serve the king in the country from now on! "Gongsun Yan bowed to his superior again.
King Ying of Wei felt relieved when he saw Gongsun Yan relenting. He stretched out his hand to support us and said, "Since you are willing to serve as an official in our country of Wei, I will immediately grant you the position of prime minister of the country of Wei."
"Your Majesty is wise." All the ministers of the Wei State paid their respects.
In this era, people worship the strong and recognize the strong, even though this person is their former enemy.
? ? ? "I don't dare. Huizi is a great talent in the world. How dare I overstep my authority?" Gongsun Yan hurriedly bowed to Hui Shi, who was tilting his head.
Although he had known for a long time that when he entered the Wei Palace, the Wei State would entrust him with important tasks, but he did not expect that the King of Wei would be so generous and ask him to act as the Prime Minister of the country.
Hui Shi returned a salute to Gongsun Yan, "Rhinoceros head, don't underestimate yourself, your talent is far greater than mine." Hui Shi's words at this moment did not contain any hint of ridicule or jealousy.
"Now that Xi is the Prime Minister of Wei, when Wei is in power, I voluntarily submit my resignation to the king. I have not seen the old mother of Song Dynasty for several years, so I still ask the king to accept it." Hui Shi bowed to Wei Ying who was standing above him.
Hui Shi was a native of the Song Dynasty and had been with the Wei Dynasty for more than ten years. Hui Shi had already regarded Wei as his second homeland, and Hui Shi was a wise man. Now that he saw that Wei had a chance to rise, he naturally wanted to give up the position of prime minister.
"You are not worthy of being a servant!" Gongsun Yan said a little ashamed.
He didn't expect Hui Shi to be so reasonable. Suddenly, Gongsun Yan felt angry and guilty towards Hui Shi. It was somewhat inappropriate to squeeze Hui Shi away just after arriving in Wei.
"What's wrong with you..." Hui Shi replied openly.
"Okay, you two don't feel sorry for each other here. I am destined to be the prime minister today!" Wei Ying paused and then faced Hui Shi and said, "The prime minister will always be the superior of our Wei Kingdom. Sir, if you want to come back, the door of Wei will always be open to the Prime Minister."
"My king will live forever!" Hui Shi worshiped.
Hui Shi had already seen that Wei Ying's spirit had declined in the past two years, and he knew that Wei Ying was probably going to change hands soon.
Although it is said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, after more than ten years of companionship, he still has the slightest bit of reluctance to let go of Wei Ying.
…
Now that the phase has been decided, Gongsun Yan should perform his duties.
"This time Qin was defeated by Qi, and our Wei state was attacked by Qi again. I want to unite the three Jin states to fight against Qi with Qin, what do Xishou think?" Wei Ying stared at Gongsun Yan and said slowly.
Gongsun Yan was silent for a moment and said: "What the king said is true. We, the State of Wei, should unite the three Jin states. But it should not be to attack Qi, but to attack Qin!"
"How do you say this?" Wei Ying was a little confused.
"In today's China, the emperor has no principles and the feudal princes are fighting. Apart from our three Jins, there are only seven major kingdoms: Qi, Chu, Yan, and Qin. Among the seven kingdoms, Qin, Qi, and Chu are the most powerful. Among the three kingdoms, Among them, Qin is the most domineering. I am not talented, I have been an official in Qin, and I am well aware of the ambition of Qin Jun.
If Qin is defeated by Qi this time, it will definitely show its favor to Wei, but when it recovers, it will definitely turn around and attack Wei first! Why? It's nothing more than Wei Wei blocking Qin's march to the east.
Gu Chen thought that he should unite the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao, and Yan to launch the Prime Minister, and take advantage of the decline of Qin to attack and destroy it in one fell swoop! "Gongsun Yan entrusted him.
Wei Ying and even His Highness's ministers of the Wei State were all shocked after hearing Gongsun Yan's words.
It is said that the authorities are deluded. Ten years ago, Su and Qin united the five countries to attack Qin, but it was also because Wei believed Qin's lies, which led to failure.
Today, Gongsun Yan revealed the truth, and everyone woke up from a dream.
"I have benefited a lot from Xishou's words!" Wei Ying bowed his hands to Gongsun Yan.
"I dare not accept this gift as a king."
Wei Ying ignored his attitude and continued: "If I want to be the leader of the alliance, what should I do?"
It was Wei Ying's damn pride that was causing trouble. If it weren't for his arrogant and arrogant attitude in the early years, Wei would still be the overlord at this time.
When he gets older, he still can't get rid of this bad habit.
How could Gongsun Yan not know what Wei Ying was thinking, he had already taken countermeasures, "Your Majesty is worried about the dissatisfaction of Zhao's monarchs and ministers? Just invite the monarch of Zhongshan to participate when you become the king!"
