"Your Majesty, envoys from Qin and Yan have arrived in Linzi, and our people have also sent news."
Hou Sheng sat down and faced Qi Wang Jian: "These all require the king's decision."
"Prime Minister, tell me in detail!" Qi Wangjian smiled at Hou Sheng, and then asked cryptically, "What are the Queen Mother's thoughts?"
King Jian of Qi knew that although he was the King of Qi, in the true sense, everything in Qi was in the hands of the Queen Mother.
Even any decision he makes needs to be approved by the Queen Mother, otherwise, his edict will not even be able to leave the palace.
"Your Majesty, what the Queen Mother means is that we will sit back and watch this battle. Although our lips are dead and our teeth are cold, Prince Yan has violated a taboo."
Hou Sheng carefully looked at Qi Wangjian's expression and said in a solemn tone: "If Yan dares to assassinate King Qin this time, he may assassinate my king next time."
"This time King Qin has a good reason. If we participate in it, it is very likely that we will get burned."
"Of course, this is just the Queen Mother's analysis. It is up to the King to decide the specific situation. The Queen Mother said that she is old, and it is time for the King to take charge of Daqi."
Hearing this, King Qi Jian was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly. He looked at Hou Sheng and said, "Prime Minister, just do what the Queen Mother wants."
"At the same time, we ordered the army to be organized to prepare for the Qin army to destroy the Yan army, and Chen Bing and I will be able to defeat the Qi Dynasty."
"promise."
Although Wang Jian of Qi grew up in the hands of a woman in a deep palace, he still had some knowledge. In these years, when he became king, he did not just drink and have fun.
After Hou Sheng left the palace, Qi Wangjian turned around and headed towards the harem. He wanted to see the Queen Mother. This incident had a great impact on the Qi State.
Once the Yan State was destroyed, the Qi State was completely isolated. Now that the Qin army has destroyed Yan, the two great kingdoms of Qi and Chu still exist.
He is also a king, so naturally he will not believe the promise of Qin Wangzheng, but among all the kings, there is no one who does not want to rule the world.
Even he wants to unify the world.
What's more, the powerful and domineering King Qin in Xianyang Palace.
"My son has met his mother!"
Qi Wangjian walked into the harem and bowed respectfully to the queen. He knew in his heart that if it weren't for the person in front of him, the throne of Da Qi would not have fallen into his hands.
Seeing Qi Wangjian's arrival, the Queen couldn't help but smile. Ever since Hou Sheng left, she had been waiting for Qi Wangjian to come to her door again.
"Your Majesty, are you confused?"
The queen motioned for King Qi to sit down, then asked with a smile.
"Mother, Qi Yan's lips are dead and her teeth are cold. Once the Qin people attack the Yan State, our Qi State will be completely isolated."
Qi Wangjian looked solemnly and looked at the queen: "This time, if Qi and Chu do not participate in it, Yan will not be able to stop Qin at all."
"Um."
"Of course I know it, but Prince Dan of Yan violated a taboo and gave King Qin an excuse. Once our army sends troops, believe it or not, the killers of Heibingtai will swarm out."
The Queen took a deep look at Qi Wangjian and said word by word: "I am already old, and Qi State will rely on you next."
"So, nothing can happen to you."
"Qi State cannot participate in this battle. Moreover, Qi State has not had a war for many years and its armaments are lax. You will also need some time to retrain."
"You should consider this yourself."
Having said this, the Queen stopped talking. She knew in her heart that the king in front of her was definitely not as weak as he appeared.
This is a king who knows how to hide himself.
"Mother, I understand."
At this moment, Qi Wangjian nodded. He naturally knew that the queen's worries were not unreasonable.
Da Qi has not fought for many years. Whether it can fight now is indeed a question that needs to be considered. As the King of Qi, he naturally has to consider this.
"Your Majesty, I am old, and I will leave the State of Qi to you. From now on, you will deal with matters above the court first. If you are unsure, come and ask me."
The queen looked solemn. She could feel that her body was getting weaker and weaker. She wanted to safely hand over Qi to Wang Jian before she completely collapsed.
Clear all the way for it.
"promise."
........
After talking with the queen, Qi Wangjian felt confident.
After leaving the harem, King Jian of Qi came to Hou Sheng and said, "Prime Minister, please arrange for me to meet the envoy of Yan and let the news go out and let Yao Jia know."
"Remember, don't be too deliberate. I believe that Yao Jia has his own source of information."
"promise."
Half an hour later, Ju Wu walked into the palace of King Qi and saluted King Qi Jian: "Foreign minister Ju Wu has met King Qi."
"You don't need to be polite, Prime Minister Yan."
Wang Jian of Qi naturally knew that Ju Wu was the prime minister of Yan State and was once the mentor of Prince Yan: "I don't know what the prime minister is talking about when he joins our Da Qi State?"
"King of Qi, the people of Qin are using their swords and soldiers with the intention of destroying Yan. This time I went to Qi on the king's order and asked the king of Qi to send troops to support."
Ju Wu did not beat around the bush, but went straight to Qi Wangjian: "The Qin Dynasty has destroyed Han and Zhao, and only the four kingdoms of Qi, Yan, Chu, and Wei are left in the six kingdoms of Shandong."
"Once the Qin people destroy the Yan State, the next one will be the Qi State. Their lips will be dead and their teeth will be cold..."
"Now that Qin is strong, only by uniting can we protect ourselves..."
"What you said, Prime Minister Yan, is very good, and I think so too, but what the Crown Prince of Yan did is too much."
Qi Wangjian sneered and said: "If Yan and Qin are not at peace, the Yan State can assassinate the King of Qin. If Qi and Yan are competing for each other in the future, will the Yan State assassinate me?"
"Which of the kings in the world does not know King Qin's intention to unify the world, and who does not understand the principle of lip death and tooth coldness? However, looking at the plains of sight, who dares to support you, Yan State?"
"As long as our army goes south, the Qin people's dead soldiers will appear in Linzi immediately. Speaking of which, this is all the fault of your prince, Yan."
"...."
"Sir, there is news that the envoy from the State of Yan was summoned by the King of Qi..."
"The queen seems to intend to delegate power to King Qi..."
Hearing this, Yao Jia smiled and said: "This is natural. King Jian of Qi is the biological son of the queen and the king of Qi."
"Now that the queen is old, it is inevitable to delegate power. As for summoning the Yan envoy..."
"Send the invitation to Hou Sheng's mansion. In Qi State, Hou Sheng is more useful than the King of Qi."
"Especially while the queen is still alive."
"promise."
Watching the attendant leave, Yao Jia had a look of solemnity in his eyes. If Qi Wangjian was ungrateful, he would let Qi Wangjian know what the Black Ice Platform was.
"To contact Dunwei, I will use the Black Ice Platform to Qi Di."
"promise."
Orders were issued one after another, and Yao Jia took a sip of tea. He knew in his heart that it was unlikely that Qi would join the war.
However, until the end, any variables will occur, and his existence is to prevent these variables.
