Quick Wear: About the Things I Saved from the Villain

Is it true that the State of Chu might not agree to an alliance with the State of Qin?

Qin Li was stunned, feeling curious and delighted.

"Did you see it?"

Qin Xixi was puzzled: "What did you see?"

"Look at the Chu State..."

He didn't finish his words, but when he saw Qin Xixi's confused look, he silently changed his words.

"How do you know that the possibility of an alliance with the State of Chu is not high?"

"Because you're not as relaxed as you look."

Qin Xixi took his hand and patted his palm gently.

Just when he was trying to comfort the general, his hands were clenched tightly, and he did not look as confident as he appeared.

Qin Li shrugged helplessly.

"I am the general. The stability of the army's morale depends entirely on my performance."

So even if he still has many concerns and worries, he cannot show them. If even he is discouraged, how can the morale of his subordinates be maintained?

"It doesn't matter."

Qin Li took the opportunity to bury his head in Qin Xixi's neck and shamelessly acted pitifully.

"Luckily, I have my beloved Bao who cares about me. Otherwise, this feeling of having no one to talk to would be really depressing."

Qin Xixi touched her arm subconsciously.

"Qin Li."

"Ok?"

“It’s a bit fake.”

It feels like a big man pretending to be a weak lady.

Although Qin Li is not a big man, he is a tough guy, which makes her a little uncomfortable.

"..."

Qin Li raised his head expressionlessly, "Okay."

Although he seems to be completely unaffected, the little person in his heart has actually been broken into pieces.

"Whether Chu will agree to an alliance is not certain, but from the information I have received, the wife of the current king of Chu is from Zheng, and she is the sister of the wife of the king of Zheng."

Therefore, the monarchs of Chu and Zheng were brothers-in-law.

Of course, this relationship may not have a significant impact on the interests of the country.

but......

"Chu Fan told me that the king of Chu was a very arrogant person. He was not the crown prince, but he hated being inferior to others since he was a prince."

If such a person were to choose under the current circumstances, he would most likely continue to choose to help Zheng State.

Because it helped Zheng, Chu became the strongest among the three countries from then on, and the other two countries had to act according to its wishes.

However, if they choose to form an alliance with the State of Qin, although the country's overall strength will be increased, it will still be the same as it is now, and cannot escape the situation of mutual checks and balances with the State of Qin.

Although Qin Li's letter was written to the king, he wrote it more for the wise people in the court of Chu who could advise the king or hold great power.

After all, smart people can judge that with the Qin State's foundation, even if it is defeated, it will only be a temporary rest and recuperation.

Choosing to help Qin will bring more benefits than disadvantages.

Qin Xixi understood, and she remembered a sentence from a book she had read before.

"Arrogant people will not listen to other people's advice, even if that person is telling the truth."

However, the next day, Qin Xixi's words came true.

Qin Li received news that the State of Chu had sent someone to contact the State of Zheng privately.

He held the secret letter with a frown on his face.

There were only him and Qin Xixi in the tent. Qin Xixi looked at his silent expression and reached out to stroke his brow.

"What are you going to do?"

Qin Li clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and exhaled.

"At this point, this battle must be fought."

It was impossible for Qin to accept Zheng's general peace terms, as this was a matter of reputation for a country.

Qin Xixi held up her face, not quite understanding, her golden eyes slightly narrowed.

"But when a real fight breaks out, Chu will send troops to support us."

Once the two countries join forces, it will be difficult for the Qin army to hold out.

"yes......"

However, if Qin agreed to the peace terms in this way, it would be ridiculed by other countries.

The face of a country is no trivial matter; it concerns the overall morale and confidence of the entire country.

To put it more seriously, if the Qin State agrees this time, it may enter a long period of depression in the future.

Maybe the subsequent consequences will be even more serious than defeat. After all, being humiliated by defeat and being humiliated by victory are two completely different things.

Qin Li looked outside the tent in silence for a while, as if he had made some decision, his brows became firm.

He walked out of the tent and asked someone to notify all the generals to discuss the matter.

When the other generals learned that the alliance had failed and that Chu was still in contact with Zheng, their reactions were similar to Qin Li's and they all fell silent.

Everyone knows that the current situation is difficult.

Zuo Wei couldn't help but spit: "Son of a bitch."

Qin Li glanced at everyone's faces and suddenly spoke.

"So, I had an adventurous idea..."

If the two roads before him are both difficult, then he will cut through the thorns and create a third way!

Qin Xixi sat aside, propping up his face and listening to him talk about his plan. He watched as everyone's eyes changed from confusion and depression at the beginning to fanatical excitement, and his body seemed to be glowing.

Qin Li is a natural born king.

"...But this method is very dangerous," Qin Li said solemnly with sharp eyes.

"So, are you willing to make a bet with me?"

High risk comes with high rewards, and the same is true for his "third way".

If successful, Qin will gain great benefits.

"Follow the general to the death!"

Yuan Meng was the first to speak, and his usually steady eyes showed an excitement that he could not contain.

After he spoke, the rest of the generals also spoke.

"Follow the general to the death!"

At this moment, putting everything aside, they were all fighting for the Qin State.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Qin Xixi subconsciously touched her chest.

It seemed that he was also infected and his heartbeat became even more intense.

Human cohesion is truly a magical thing.

She curved her eyebrows and thought.

"Okay, let's discuss the plan now."

The discussion in the main tent lasted from morning until sunset.

After everyone left, Qin Li sat back in his chair tiredly, emptying his mind and looking up.

In front of everyone, he is the general who decides the strategy and the king of a country, so he must appear confident.

But when everyone left, he would feel uneasy about such a risky plan.

Qin Xixi walked over silently and rubbed his face, and he took her hand and covered his face with it.

A muffled sound came from his hands.

"Mianmei, do you think we can win this bet?"

Qin Xixi carefully considered the plan he had made in the afternoon and told the truth.

“It’s a little dangerous, but it’s a good idea.”

"It's okay. I'm here, and nothing will happen to you."

Qin Li thought again of the abnormal weather caused by Qin Xixi's crying twice.

"...Your abilities should not be exposed if possible."

"I know."

Qin Xixi only said one sentence, "As long as nothing happens to you, I will never expose myself."
