Prince Furen took [-] soldiers to the Qi State camp. It was more than ten miles away from the Qi State camp. From a distance, they saw someone setting up a wine table to welcome them by the roadside.

The prince Furen was a little surprised, and sent someone to ask who set up wine on the road, intending to serve the army.

The scouts went away at the command, and after a while, they came back to report, saying: "The envoys sent by the state of Qi knew that the prince was here, so they dared not neglect. They went out of the camp to meet each other, and set wine on the road to honor the prince."

The Prince Furen looked at the person waiting on the side of the road with a wine-holder from afar, with no expression on his face, and finally ordered: "Soldier squad, the front team has [-] riders, the rear team has [-] riders, and the rear team has [-] riders. The team stands on standby, the front team dismounts and walks with me!"

The prince obeyed the people and ruled the army for a long time, [-] armored soldiers were ordered to prohibit them, and quickly changed the team. The five hundred in the front team dismounted, followed the prince and walked forward to the envoy of the state of Qi, and then saluted and bowed deeply.

When the sending envoy of the State of Qi saw the crown prince serving such a grand gift, he was terrified and said, "The crown prince is honorable, so this is a shame for me."

After serving the people, the prince looked at Qi Guo sending the envoy with a sincere look, and said: "For those who serve others and ask for what they want, etiquette should be important, and the number of copies should be."

The Prince Furen's appearance is "simply and honest", coupled with such a humble and humble attitude, the envoy from Qi who was suppressed by Xia Yu all the way and did not dare to breathe was a little moved as if seeing a relative, and couldn't help but He bowed deeply and returned the salute, and said: "I am ordered to serve my master here and wait for the prince respectfully. It must be extremely hard for the prince to travel long distances with the warriors of the Yan Kingdom. Here is a little wine and meat to comfort the warriors of the Yan Kingdom." One by one, the servants came out with glasses of wine that had been poured into the wine master on lacquer plates, and sent them to the five hundred soldiers.

How strict is the crown prince in serving people and running the army, and how dare all the soldiers drink alcohol without authorization, so even though the aroma of the fine wine brought to the front is wafting, it attracts greedy people, but none of the soldiers dared to act rashly.

The servants who delivered the wine stood in front of the soldiers holding lacquer plates one by one, and looked at each other stiffly. , not daring to pull it off, it was deadlocked.

Seeing such a situation, the send-off envoy looked pitifully at the prince's convincing, and said: "This...this...Prince, I am also following orders."

Although the sending envoy didn't say who was the order, but how could the convincing people fail to guess that Xia Yu's meaning was most likely.

Looking at the pitiful eyes of the envoys sending off relatives, he turned his head to look at the five hundred soldiers behind him, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the Qi camp. After a long time, the envoy from the State of Qi sent a salute, and said: "Thank you for your kindness, the envoy, your honorable envoy is right. My warriors from the country of Yan traveled with me for a long distance. It was really hard work. We should take a break." , Speaking of this, he ordered the five hundred soldiers behind him, "You guys take a break again, don't drink alcohol, don't eat, and don't be scattered in formation. If you violate it, I will kill it!"

After giving this order, the crown prince gave a slight nod to the sending envoy, and then said to the orderly soldiers beside him: "Bring up the rear team, and we will move on."

The messengers came down at the command, but after a while, the [-] soldiers in the rear had already moved to the front. The crown prince got on his horse, faced him, and gave a slight salute to the sending envoy, saying: "Your envoy, you should know this." At that time, there was an urgent battle at the border of Yan State, and time was short, so there is no need to delay here." After speaking, he rode his horse and ran towards the Qi army's camp with a rear team of [-] soldiers.

The envoy of the state of Qi sent off his relatives at this time, his face was so bitter that he was about to lose slag. He set up wine on the road to comfort the soldiers of the state of Yan, and then succeeded in keeping 500 Yan people here. You can listen to the order of the prince to persuade them to go. ——"No drinking, no eating, no disorganized formation", this order, how can he continue to respect the wine.

With a bitter expression on his face, the envoy of the State of Qi called an accompanying guard and said, "Hurry up and inform the camp that the situation has changed. We only have 500 people left."

The guards at the side of the send-off envoy hurried away as ordered, but they rushed to the Qi State camp to inform Xia Yu.

The crown prince brought [-] armored soldiers to the gate of the camp, and saw an elderly man with somewhat gray beard and hair standing at the gate. Seeing his troops coming, he bowed his hands and said: "The villains are of equal quality, Knowing that the prince is here, the lord ordered me to wait for the prince here and welcome him into the camp."

The crown prince reined in his horse and stopped, his eyes swept over the camp where the people of Qi were stationed, his expression became a little cold, and after a long time, he said: "I will not enter the camp, according to etiquette, please come out of the camp, follow me Go back to the city."

Qi Zhi didn't expect the prince Furen to say that, he was slightly taken aback, but he was old, and he was indeed more tactful in the world, so he adjusted it in a moment, and said with a smile: "The prince is tired from afar, although the etiquette is not fixed. Entering the camp, but you can't let the prince work so hard, rushing here without taking a rest and rushing back with my lord. This is not wrong with etiquette, but it is a loss of human feelings. Otherwise, how about this, we have already brought the wine and prepared After getting off the kabuki, how about the crown prince taking a rest here, this place is not considered in the camp, if there is less rectification, it is not considered a breach of etiquette."

These words are reasonable, but the crown prince Furen raised his hand to stop Qi Zhi, and said: "I have to worry about it, but Furen still thinks it is better not to delay too much, please just act according to the etiquette."

Qi Zhi froze when he was persuaded by the seemingly euphemistic but actually rejected words. When the time came, he didn't know what to say.

At this time, a loud laugh came and said: "Haha, no wonder the Lord said that you are difficult to deal with, the nobleman. Now it seems that it is true."

Hearing the rather arrogant voice, the Prince Furen frowned slightly, looked around the sound, and saw a pair of young men around ten years old, holding a sword, walking out of the camp with a smile, looking at the Prince Fu The man made a salute and said, "The villain Wu Bao, I have met the Crown Prince of Yan."

The prince was reining in the reins, gently stroking the temples of the mount with one hand, looking at the guy who called himself Wu Bao with a very calm expression, for a long time, said: "Where is your master?"

Wu Bao smiled and said, "My lord invites the prince into the camp for a talk."

Prince Furen glanced at Qiguo's camp again, then shook his head and said, "Yu Li is not on good terms."

At this time, although the Hun Li was not as grandiose as later generations, there were certain rules. Although the rituals collapsed at the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, the general form of the Hun Li basically followed the "Zhou Li". Half of the hair is tied up, with a crown, and the other half is draped over the shoulders. Then I worshiped in my family temple and took the ancestral fruit given by my father.

The party who asks for it will go to the family temple of the person who asks for it in person at dusk, and the father will lead it into the outer door. The carriage of the husband's master went back to his family and the subordinates saluted. Afterwards, there was a family temple dedicated to the husband's house, and the husband's inner father went to the ancestral hall again, which was a ceremony.

The countries are in a state of confusion, because the roads are far apart, and seeking convenience is not to go to the temple of one's own lord, but to roughly abide by this form. There is also a reason for the incompatibility of etiquette, because the gift of personal welcome is for the right person to go out and enter another house, and there is no reason for the person who asks for it to enter the tent first.

Wu Bao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "Since the crown prince said so, then let's stop talking nonsense and directly reveal the truth."

After Wu Bao finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and saw a group of people rushing out of the Qi camp in an instant, with the shield hand in front, the halberd hand behind, and behind them, there were faintly visible crossbowmen.

Seeing this battle, the armored soldiers beside the Prince Furen immediately became nervous, they all drew their swords and watched closely the Prince Furen's movements, but as soon as the Prince Furen gave an order, they would immediately rush forward to kill him.

Wu Bao stared brightly at the [-] soldiers brought by the Prince Furen, and licked his lips, as if he was not afraid of the imminent situation in front of him, but even more excited.

At this time, another soldier with a sword came out of the camp, bowed to the prince, and said: "Little man Qi Xun, I have met the prince of Yan."

The prince Furen remained calm, as if the two sides were not in an imminent situation, and nodded peacefully to Qi Xun's salute.

After Qi Xun finished his salute, he said to the prince submissively: "My lord ordered that he and the prince have fought against the prince several times without a result. He is not sure that he can win the prince. If he wants to come to the prince, he is afraid that it will be easy if he is not sure. Beat him."

The prince is noncommittal. He has fought in the battlefield all the year round, and he has developed an instinct for danger. Just now he used the excuse of disharmony to not enter the camp. In fact, he noticed that the whole camp was different. It really proved that his judgment was correct. To be honest, although the two sides were in a state of confrontation at this time, the prince was relieved. After all, an open confrontation is much easier to deal with than a secret ambush.

Therefore, the prince Furen was very humble and respectful and said: "Xia Yu is a famous general in the world, and he is really not sure if he wants to win him, but Furen is not here to fight today."

Qi Xun looked Prince Furen up and down, his eyes showed some surprise, at this moment in the whole camp, there were crossbowmen faintly aiming at Prince Furen and the [-] soldiers behind him. Faced with such a situation, the prince can still keep his expression on his face and be well-mannered. He is indeed number one. No wonder his master Xia Yu can't get cheap on the battlefield.

Qi Xun remembered Xia Yu's order, and replied to the prince Furen's words at this time: "My lord ordered that he did not intend to fight today, but it is not up to him to decide whether it is war or peace, but depends on the prince." hands."

The prince Furen frowned slightly, and said, "What's the explanation for this statement?"
