Chapter 241 Qi Wangjian and the treacherous prime minister won, on the speed of surrender
When Tian Li brought Qin Wangzheng's war letter to Qi Palace, he hadn't shown it to Qi Wangjian, but Qi Wangjian's laughter had already reached his ears.

"What my uncle said is very true. The King of Qin called me a friend before, so why did he suddenly send soldiers over? I have my uncle here, so I can rest easy!" Qi Wangjian seemed to be in a good mood again, and said to Qi Xianghousheng .

Qi Xianghousheng is the younger brother of Qi Wang Jianmother and Qi Empress Dowager.But he doesn't have the same talent as his elder sister. As the prime minister of the country, Hou Sheng is more greedy for pleasure in his position.

In the past 40 years when the Queen has been in power, the Qi State is not only growing stronger, but it is also developing steadily. However, when the Queen passed away, Qi Wangjian had no one to rely on, so he chose to believe in his uncle and win.

After all, the Queen is the father of the King of Qi, and King Qi Xiang and the Queen handle the government affairs together. When King Qi Xiang passed away, King Qi was young, and the burden of Qi was borne by the Queen alone.

Until the queen died, Qi Wangjian relied on his mother, and when his mother died, Qi Wangjian didn't know how to deal with the government and could only appoint his uncle.

But the arrival of Tian Li broke the illusion of King Qi's peace and victory. He took Qin Wangzheng's letter of war and said sternly: "Your Majesty, Qin has declared war. This is Qin Wangzheng's letter of war."

"Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible!" The wine glass in Qi Wangjian's hand fell to the ground, and he looked at Qi Prime Minister Hou Sheng aside: "Uncle, didn't you say that the King of Qin will not send troops?"

Hou Sheng said calmly: "Your Majesty, the Qin State is far away, and it is not even wise to attack the Qi State. Let the old minister persuade the Qin State's army to retreat!"

This sincere words made Qi Wangjian full of confidence. It can be said that this uncle who took him to play since he was a child is the person he trusts the most.

"Then uncle, go quickly, and when uncle comes back, I will reward uncle's land!" Qi Wangjian seemed to be holding on to a life-saving straw, and asked Qi Xiang Housheng to go outside the city to persuade Qin Jun to leave as soon as possible.

"Yes, the old minister is going right away!" Hou Sheng got up and looked at his nephew's cheek reluctantly.

He resolutely left Qi Palace, and Qi Xiang Housheng came outside Qi Palace in his own carriage, and he thought of his sister King and Queen again.

My sister, known as Qi Guoxian Empress, even when facing the king of Qin State who had already crowned the Seven Kingdoms at that time, the envoys sent by her were neither humble nor overbearing.

When the king and queen were still alive, the king of Qin sent an envoy to present a pair of jade rings to the queen, and said to the queen: "The king of Qin heard that there are many smart people in Qi, can you untie this jade ring?"

The queen smiled and said, "The envoy is too small for me to be a member of Qi."

After saying that, the queen asked her attendants to bring an awl and smashed the jade chain with one blow. She thanked the messenger and said, "Isn't this solved?"

From then on, "Empress Qi broke the ring" was recorded in the history of Qi, and the king of Qin in the west also admired the queen mother of Qi very much because of this incident.

Hou Sheng even remembered that when his sister, the Queen, was dying, she wanted to make her nephew Qi Wangjian not to reuse herself. After all, Hou Sheng's talent was really not enough to take on the Qi State, but between Qi State and family affection, the King Queen still chose affection.

But now Hou Sheng has to make a decision to violate his sister, because he knows that he does not have the ability of his sister.

What's more, the current state of Qin is stronger than before, and the current state of Qi's army is used to peace from top to bottom, and is now even called lobster soldiers by the Qin army.

All in all, the current state of Qi does not have such ability, not to mention the benefits that King Qin promised to Hou Sheng, as long as he can surrender to Qin State, his own property will be quite a lot.

As for Qi Xiang's power, Hou Sheng never cared about it. What he valued more was his wealth and land. The position of Qi Xiang was a heavy burden for him.

So Hou Sheng took his mansion inside, and the state of Qin sent retainers who bribed him, and went to the Qin army together.

With his own personal guards, Qi Xiang Housheng came in front of the large army of the Qin army. He looked at the majestic and majestic Qin army, and he had no intention of resisting.

He came to the front of the army and shouted directly: "President Qi wins first, pay homage to Mr. Qin, please come and see me!"

Hou Sheng's tone was extremely humble, not at all in line with his status as Prime Minister of the country, which made Fu Su frowned in disgust when he got the information.

Thinking of the governor who was also the Prime Minister, Fusu's dislike of Hou Sheng increased to a new level. However, as a mature ruler, Fusu knew not to use personal likes and dislikes to influence decision-making.

Only a money-greedy and incompetent person like Hou Sheng could allow Qin State to penetrate the entire Qi State so easily.

So Fusu greeted him as the eldest son of the Qin State and said, "You are very polite to the Prime Minister of the State of Qi. Has the king of Qi accepted the letter of war from my father?"

Hearing the young master Fusu's question, Hou Sheng was a little stunned. His purpose of coming here was not to talk about the war letter, but to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, and seek refuge in Qin.

However, as a person who took refuge here, Hou Sheng didn't dare not answer the son Fusu's question, he said directly: "The king of Qi is a fatuous man, and he dare not accept the challenge of Qin Guoxiong, but..."

As Qi Wangjian's uncle, Hou Sheng actually disregarded the etiquette of the emperor and his family, and began to slander his nephew in front of his son Fusu, which made Fusu interrupt his words directly.

"Then trouble Qi Xiang to go back and talk to King Qi again about my father's conditions." Seeing that the whole country of Qi has no intention of resisting.

Even Qi Xiang Housheng, the second in command of Qi State, had already been bought by Qin State, Fusu didn't intend to talk nonsense, and he took out the secret letter from Qin Wangzheng from his chest.

It says that as long as Qi Wangjian is willing to surrender, Qin Wangzheng can give him five hundred miles of land out of friendship and let him be the lord of that land.

This condition can be said to be generous. Look at the kings of Han, Wei, Zhao, Chu, and Yan, which of the other five countries has such a generous condition, and the land of five hundred miles is not small.

After showing it to Hou Sheng, Hou Sheng's face became more happy, so that he would not be sorry for his sister and nephew. The lord of the land of five hundred miles, you must know that when the Zhou Dynasty was enfeoffed, the lord of the land less than five hundred miles away Grab a handful.

In this way, King Qi at least retained his family blood, but just changed a piece of territory.

Hou Sheng happily gave a big gift, and said: "The king of Qin is kind and your son is wise. I will explain this matter to the king of Qi immediately, and the king of Qi will introduce it immediately."

After finishing speaking, Hou Sheng returned to the Qi Palace in Linzi with his personal guards.The doorman of the Qin Kingdom beside him looked at the eldest son Fusu, and Fusu signaled him to follow Hou Sheng to the Qi Palace to see the situation.
