Sumu quickly came back to his senses from his thoughts and they quickly stood up.

Guan Zheyao pressed his hand and motioned for them to continue sitting.

"Su Mu, how are you doing with your recitation?" Because Wenren Shuyi had already told him the identities of these three people, he naturally called out Su Mu's name.

Number 11 and Number 24 turned their heads to glance at Su Mu. They didn’t expect that such a tough person would have such a gentle name!

The two couldn't help but think of one thing. After all, they have been good friends for many years, so there must be some tacit understanding between them.

"Minister, I just gave it a rough review!" Su Mu was not sure if she could remember everything just by reciting it, so she chose to be humble.

"Since you've gone through it once, I'll test you now! Follow me!" Guan Zheyao put his hands behind his back and turned to go to his office.

Su Mu was a little surprised. She thought that the three of them would be tested together. No. 11 and No. 24 were sitting next to her, winking at each other and making a gesture of encouragement to Su Mu.

Su Mu couldn't help but smile slightly, then he raised his foot and followed.

When I walked into the office, Guan Zheyao had already sat down.

"No need to close the door! Just come over here!"

He saw Su Mu was about to close the door and immediately spoke up to stop him.

Su Mu paused for a moment as he stretched out his hand, then quickly retracted it, turned around and walked to his desk.

"Sit down!" Guan Zheyao pointed at the chair in front of Su Mu.

Su Mu pulled away and sat down.

"Tell me what you think about Su Qin's lobbying of various countries to unite and resist Qin!" After Guan Zheyao finished speaking, he closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.

"Hengzong Kang Qin means uniting the weak countries of Yan, Zhao, Qi, Chu, Han, and Wei into a powerful military alliance to jointly resist the behemoth Qin..."

Su Mu's unhurried tone came out of her mouth slowly. Listening to her speak was a pleasure, which made Guan Zheyao feel a little relieved from the fatigue he felt after working all night.

"First of all, Su Qin adopted different lobbying methods for countries of different strengths. For example, Qi, which was the strongest among the six countries." Su Mu paused, took a breath and continued.

"Qi and Qin are equally powerful and cannot coexist, just like two tigers fighting each other. If Qi is strong, Qin will be weak; if Qi is weak, Qin will be strong.

The two countries will inevitably have a war. In this case, if the powerful Qi State does not want to be annexed by the Qin State, it should call on other small countries to form an alliance to jointly resist the powerful Qin State..."

When Su Mu started talking, it was like a flood that burst through a dam and he could not stop talking. Sometimes when he talked about the maneuvers, his voice would unconsciously become heavier.

"So..." he said at the end, "When negotiating, it is best to start from the point where the other party needs you, and then achieve your own goal!" Su Mu's final summary was concise and to the point.

However, Guan Zheyao suddenly opened his eyes and even straightened up unconsciously.

"If I remember correctly, you were only fifteen years old, right?" Guan Zheyao suddenly changed the subject.

According to her actual age, she is indeed not yet sixteen years old, and will have to wait until the second half of this year to turn sixteen. For a moment, she did not understand why he asked this question.

"That's right!" Su Mu nodded.

Guan Zheyao got the exact answer. He was excited at first, and then an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes. "Are you interested in becoming a diplomat in the future?"

Su Mu was shocked. What is this?

"Ah?" Su Mu expressed confusion.

Guan Zheyao smiled and said, "You are quite talented in this area. How about considering it?" He asked with a smile while leaning on the table.

Su Mu was a little happy at first that she could get the recognition of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but she was just a little happy, and her face suddenly became serious.

"I'm sorry, Minister, thank you very much for your recognition of me, but I have decided to join the army in the future!" Su Mu stood up and bowed.

A trace of regret flashed across Guan Zheyao's face, but it was followed by appreciation. After all, as people grow older, few can keep their original intentions and stick to their dreams.

Although I don’t know whether Su Mu can do it in the future, but based on her current attitude, this is rare.

"In that case, forget it. I'll continue testing you!" Guan Zheyao looked at Su Mu who stood up. He pressed his hand and motioned Su Mu to sit down.

"Tell me what you think about the Truman Conference and try to refute it!" Guan Zheyao jumped from ancient China to modern foreign history in one go.

Truman Doctrine? Su Mu was a little surprised when she heard it. If her memory was correct, there was no such thing in the materials.

Could it be that the minister added it himself? This thought flashed quickly through Su Mu's mind.

But she didn't have time to think about anything else. She only thought for a few seconds and then answered quickly.

Fortunately, when she learned about this in the history book, she also went to look up relevant information.

"You said...Did No. 40 really memorize everything?" While Su Mu was answering, No. 11 turned around and asked No. 24.

When No. 24 heard this, he turned around and gave him a cold look.

"I don't know whether you have finished memorizing it on the 40th, but if you don't memorize it now, you will definitely not be able to finish it!" He hit his childhood friend mercilessly.

"Ah..." No. 11 felt a headache when he saw all the information in front of him. He scratched his standard crew cut hair in annoyance.

"Alright, you have to recite it even if you are caught again!" Number 24 pulled his hand down, stood up with the information, and walked to a corner to continue reciting.

Number Eleven gritted his teeth and stared fiercely at the information in his hand, as if he wanted to tear it up and eat it.

In this way, Guan Zheyao tested Su Mu for more than 40 minutes, jumping from China to foreign countries, from ancient times to modern times, and even assuming several situations of the negotiations with the English heirs.

The closer it got to the end, the more appreciative Guan Zheyuan's expression became. He couldn't help but want to continue persuading Su Mu to pursue a career in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the future.

"…So I think we can adopt the approach of using courtesy first and then force, and show that we are polite but not afraid of trouble!"

Su Mu finished speaking, asking what attitude we should take towards England in the last hypothetical situation.

"Pa pa pa!" Guan Zheyao stood up and clapped his hands to Su Mu three times, his expression very satisfied.

"You're right! Okay, your exam is over, you can go back and rest!" He said as he pushed the chair behind him and walked out the door.

Su Mu's tense spirit finally relaxed slowly. Seeing Guan Zheyao had already walked a few steps outside, she hurriedly followed him out.

Number 11 and Number 24 were still struggling with the information. When they saw Guan Zheyao and Su Mu walk in together, they immediately looked at Su Mu and Guan Zheyao with expectation.

"How are you two doing with your recitation?" Guan Zheyao now put on his usual gentle demeanor, but underneath his gentleness was a sharpness hidden.
