King Qin stood quietly in front of the huge geographical map of the world. All the eunuchs in the palace had left.
At this time, in the shadows, a figure knelt down in the darkness.
"What's the matter?" King Qin looked at the map and asked.
"Your Majesty, the secret guard following the young master reported back. Please have your Majesty take a look."
The man in the shadow walked out of the shadow, bent down, and respectfully presented a roll of cloth in front of King Qin.
"Fusu, what happened when you went to Yandi? You talk about his etiquette and Confucianism every day. Do you have to report this?"
"Your Majesty, ordinary trivial matters naturally do not deserve our attention. However, after the young master went to Yandi, he could not afford to fall ill. However, when the military camp was joining forces in Lixia, the young master rushed out of the tent and looked at the soldiers in the heavy rain. He looked up to the sky. Laugh, after that, you feel like a different person."
"Changes mean progress. Gu knows this son very well. He has his own ideas, but he is a bit dull. As Gu's son, he doesn't have Gu's domineering attitude at all. On the contrary, he often goes against Gu. This kid , Not bad, it just needs experience and changes, I want to see what changes he has."
Ying Zheng and Fu Su are father and son, one is domineering and the other is gentle and elegant. If Fu Su succeeds to the throne, he will be a great hero. The discord between King Qin and Fusu was mostly due to disagreements in military and political affairs. King Qin wanted to train Fusu to become a monarch like himself, but Fusu repeatedly gave advice. This is Fusu. If it were anyone else, how many His life was not enough for King Qin to kill him.
King Qin picked up the cloth casually and glanced at it, but there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Then he unfolded the cloth with both hands and looked at it carefully.
"Haha, okay, I underestimated this boy. After studying in the palace for so many years, I didn't expect that he could hide it so deeply. His analysis of the shortcomings of Qi State was clear and logical, and every sentence hit the point. He is even more so in our Great Qin National Policy. But in my chest, yes, yes! In these years, I have only been scolding him, but I have ignored his progress."
"Long live the warriors of Great Qin! You are right. The great cause of our country of Qin was achieved by countless old Qin people who worked hard to achieve it. How can they not be worthy of long live!"
Seeing the happy look of King Qin, the man in the shadow spoke appropriately.
"Your Majesty, Wang Ben, Li Xin and others are vaguely convinced. Will this..."
"Palm mouth!"
"Snapped!"
As soon as King Qin finished speaking, a huge slap sounded throughout the hall.
The man in the dark slapped himself hard.
King Qin looked at him coldly: "If you can't control your mouth, then you should never say anything!"
"I made a mistake!"
"Get off!"
There is no better way to know a son than a father. Although the King of Qin was busy with government affairs, he still knew his son very well. Fusu had his etiquette and filial piety engraved into his bones. As a minister, this is a good thing. The King of Qin has no doubt that if he suddenly accedes to the throne, He would not hesitate to order his son to die.
But this is also his shortcoming. If he wants to be a monarch, there are too many things that hinder him. If he wants to be a monarch, the first thing he needs is ruthlessness!
"Experience in the battle formation, I hope you can grow!"
At this time, Zhao Gao hurried in to report and knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Lieutenant Li Si is waiting for the edict outside the palace."
"Xuan"
Li Si studied under Xunzi, but he strongly advocated Legalist thought. He and Han Feizi, the master of Legalism, studied together in Jixia Academy and had a relationship as brothers. After completing their studies, Han Feizi, as a Korean prince, took what he had learned throughout his life with him. A moth flies into the flame and disappears with his Korea.
However, Li Si became a disciple of Qin Prime Minister Lu Buwei. When the war to destroy the country was launched, his political views coincided with the King of Qin, so he was favored by the King of Qin. He was promoted to Tingwei and became a close minister of the King of Qin.
A middle-aged scholar in black official uniform walked into the hall with his head lowered and his waist bent.
"Your Majesty Li Si pays homage to the King"
"Without courtesy, Li Si, what do you want to report?"
The middle-aged scholar raised his head with confidence on his face: "Your Majesty, Prince Tian Chong of the State of Qi wants to see your Majesty in the name of the envoy of Qi."
"Young master of the State of Qi rushes to pay homage to me. Humph! It's nothing more than kneeling down to beg for peace. The unification of the world is the general trend. There is absolutely no possibility that his State of Qi will exist anymore! Go and send him away for this matter!"
"promise!"
Xianyang, Tingwei Mansion.
Prince Chong of the State of Qi is waiting anxiously in his mansion. This mission will determine the fate of the State of Qi and the survival of the State of Qi!
After much anticipation, Lord Tingwei finally arrived who went to the palace to report.
As soon as Li Si entered the mansion, Young Master Chong came over anxiously: "Master Tingwei, how are you? Has the king agreed to meet with the foreign ministers?"
Li Si glanced at him and said, "Sir, my king is busy with government affairs, so I won't receive any foreign ministers!" After saying that, he walked towards the palace.
"What, not to meet the foreign ministers? This is a major matter between the two countries. Does the King of Qin not care about it?" Gongzi Chong was a little angry.
Li Si sat in the mansion and sipped tea slowly. He was not in a hurry about this matter. After all, Qi State was at a critical moment of life and death.
The young master rushed outside the courtyard and released his clenched fists, adjusted himself, and then asked his entourage to bring in several large boxes.
"Sir, I was rude just now. I hope you will forgive me. Please accept these boxes of gold and say a kind word for me!" The young master bowed and bent down very low.
"The attitude is good, but unfortunately, the method is wrong. I, Wang Youling, will be responsible for all negotiations with Ambassador Qi!"
Negotiation and negotiation are all about momentum, and Qi is at a disadvantage before it even begins.
"Sir, sit down. If you have anything to do with Qi, you can tell me."
"Sir, during the period of King Qin Zhaoxiang of your country, we entered into an alliance with our country of Qi. The two countries respected each other's imperial title and would never engage in war. Qin was located in the west, and King Qin Zhaoxiang respected him as the Western Emperor. Our country of Qi, located in the east, respected us as the Western Emperor. Emperor of the East, according to this covenant, we, the State of Qi, are now willing to respect the State of Qin as our superior state, and from now on the two countries will not invade each other!"
"Humph! Haha"
A burst of laughter interrupted Gongzi Chong's story.
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. It's the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. We respect each other's imperial title. Yes, there is this covenant, but you, Qi, are the first to violate it. By abolishing the imperial title, we, the Great Qin, have become the laughing stock of the princes. I, the Great Qin, will not care about you. Forget it, if you still say it now, you really feel that my Da Qin sword is not sharp enough!"
Hearing this, Young Master Chong's face turned red. Insults, naked insults, mutual respect for each other's imperial titles, were originally a vicious plan of the Qin Dynasty, in order to provide more resources for the conquest of the Five Kingdoms.
During the period of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, Qin in the West and Qi in the East dominated the princes and established themselves as the two emperors of the East and West. Qi State relied on its strong national power and the support of Qin State to send troops to destroy the Song State. However, Su Qin planned to instigate the Five Kingdoms to attack Qi. , the Battle of Jixi, Qi was defeated, the king of Qi, King Qi Min, was killed while fleeing, and Qi was destroyed.
Although the talented Tian Dan later restored the country, Qi's national power could never be restored! This is the eternal pain of Qi State. Now, Gongzi Chong takes this as an entry point to see if Qin State is still shameless.
It's obvious that the Qin State doesn't treat you as a dish.
"If you want to talk, show your Qi country's sincerity, otherwise, let's end it here!"
The young master was furious, suppressed the anger in his heart, abandoned all dignity, and knelt on the ground: "Great Qin is above, and Qi is here to pay me a visit. Qi is willing to respect Qin as the superior country, respect the King of Qin as the supreme king, and is willing to cede Gaotang I will give fifteen important cities to Qin, and I will give you thousands of taels of gold and thousands of beauties. I am willing to make peace with Qin forever! This is the credential of our Qi State."
Li Si looked at him quietly: "Not enough, not enough. Master, listen carefully. I, the Qin Dynasty, have millions of soldiers. If you don't want to die, first of all, cancel the name of the country of Qi. Secondly, the army of Qi should put down their weapons. King Qi Cancel the title of king and enter Xianyang, so that you and others will not die! In the end, all the people of Qi will be our people of Great Qin!"
Young Master Chong stood up angrily: "What's the difference between this and destroying our Qi State? Your Qin State has gone too far."
"You don't naively think that your Qi country can still exist. Unification of the world is the general trend. If Qi country survives, how will my king explain to millions of soldiers that a weak country should have the consciousness of a weak country? This is not negotiation, this is It’s just that I, Da Qin, informed you in advance!”
