In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States without women

Xia Yu looked at Zhiyao who was approaching, and saw that the Jin Kingdom, who was still a Qianlong, was finally in power. A few days ago, this person had sworn an alliance with him. Xia Yu found it very interesting that the monarch and himself were tit-for-tat, but they were like the ministers of the country and the country, and said: "Please, Siqing first."

Zhiyao is also welcome, looking at the position of Jin State on the map of the return of the four seas, looking at the "heavy soldiers" stationed by Han Zhaowei and Qi State on the border between Jin State and Qi State, Zhiyao smiled and said: "Jin State The armies led by Han, Zhao, Wei Siqing are all stationed in the east of Jin State and confronted with Qi State. If I am in power at this time, I should station my Zhi army on the west side of Jin State to guard against Qin State. At the same time, I should send people to fight with Qi State The Qin State negotiated a peace, and used the intimidation of soldiers as the backhand to force the Qin State to negotiate a peace."

When Zhiyao said this, she looked up at the King of Qin who was going up the steps, which made the King of Qin twitch involuntarily.

Xia Yu lowered her head and listened to Zhiyao's description of her strategy to deal with Qi's attack. At the same time, she played with the jade pendant in her hand and wandered around the position of Jin on the map. When she reached the border between Jin and Qin, she said: " A quarter of Jin's power intends to force Qin to negotiate peace, and Siqing is a little arrogant."

Zhiyao laughed loudly and said: "Didn't Neizuo just say that a lion leading a group of sheep can defeat a group of lions led by a sheep? In the past, the ruling party put down the rebellion of the Fan family and the Zhongxing family, and defeated the coalition forces of the princes. Many." Speaking of this, Zhiyao paused for a moment, glanced at Zhao Zhifu who had been silently watching the "controversy on the silk", and then untied the sword around his waist, pointing directly at Jin and Qin. At the junction of the Qin and Jin Dynasties, he said: "Yao's words are not unsubstantiated. The Qin State has not herded Qin Dong for these years. My Zhi family has worked hard for these years. Hangu Pass is actually shared by Qin and Jin. Since Nei Zuo can draw this mountain and river situation map, you should know The terrain of Hangu Pass is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, one man is the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it. As long as our Jin country deploys a strong army at Hangu Pass, the number of people does not need to be too large, it is enough to resist Qin."

Qin State started from Qin Mu Gongxiong for a while, and the successive monarchs were either fatuous or mediocre. That's called a like, that's called a good, but he has done a lot in taking care of his fiefdom and expanding outwards, but fortunately, Zhishi's expansion to the east of Qin, Jin and west was completed slowly in 20 years, and the speed was not fast. It was quick, but Han Zhao Wei Sanqing didn't look sideways. At this time, Zhiyao showed the results of managing Jin Guoxi, which is quite proud.

Seeing Xia Yu pondering slightly, Zhiyao knew that her strategy was right without immediately expressing any rebuttals to her strategy of "retreating from the Qin Dynasty". As far as I know, Goujian, the king of Yue, is seriously ill, and his sons are earning more and more money. As long as we send envoys from Jin to contact these sons, we promise that they will attack Chu and Jin. Just send a lot of money, soldiers, craftsmen, slaves, etc., and Xu Yilian, support him to fight for the title of the king of Yue, I think the son of Yue will be tempted, so the border between Chu and Yue is bound to be unstable .”

Xia Yu unconsciously walked slowly to the junction of the Yue Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom, listened to Zhiyao's words, then tilted her neck slightly, and said: "I heard that the princes of the Yue Kingdom have almost reached the point of separatist fiefdom. Given the level of mutual attack, will they be willing to waste their troops attacking Chu at this time?"

Zhiyao said: "It depends on how long Goujian can hold on... But it doesn't matter, I will beat gongs and drums in the Jin Congress to let everyone in the world know that I will send envoys from the Jin Kingdom to unite with the Yue Kingdom, and promise the son of the Yue Kingdom to attack the Chu Kingdom. .”

After Zhiyao said this, she didn't say anything more. Zhao Wuxie, Han Hu, and Wei Ju, who had been silent since Zhiyao stepped down from the high platform, had just been quietly listening to Xia Yu and Zhiyao's confrontation. It wasn't that they didn't want to intervene, it was that they were blocked by Xia Yu just now, and now Zhiyao came down to finish, so naturally she didn't want to say that she made a mistake and hurt her teammates.

When Zhiyao said, "The National Assembly of Jin beat gongs and drums to let everyone in the world know that the Kingdom of Jin sent envoys to unite with the Kingdom of Yue", Han Hu looked bewildered, Wei Ju frowned slightly, only Zhao Wuxie looked thoughtful, and then there was a sudden realization color.

Xia Yu remained silent for a long time, then sighed and said, "Rumours are very useful sometimes."

Seeing that Xia Yu had guessed the meaning of her strategy, Zhiyao smiled proudly and said, "Rumours are often useful."

Han Hu was still at a loss when he heard the conversation between Xia Yu and Zhiyao, and finally couldn't help but asked Zhao Wuxie, "What do they mean?"

Seeing Han Hu open his mouth, Wei Ju did not speak, but also looked at Zhao Wuxie. Zhao Wuxie was standing at the side of the picture of Return of the Four Seas, just behind Zhiyao to the right. Looking at Zhiyao's tall back, Zhao Wuxie There was a complex look in Wuxie's eyes, and he said: "What they mean is that there is no need for Yue to actually send troops, but only to send envoys to unite with Yue to attack Chu along the road with great fanfare, so that Jin and Yue will unite. If the news spreads all over the world, no matter whether it succeeds in the end or not, the state of Chu will warn the state of Yue, so naturally it will not dare to divide its troops to go north and take advantage of the fire when Jin and Qi are fighting."

Hearing Zhao Wuxie's indifferent voice, Zhiyao turned her head to look at the heir of the Zhao family who had always felt quite moderate, with a slight look of surprise in her eyes. Zhiyao thought that Zhao Wuxie had been in contact with Zhao Wuxie for a long time. This Zhao's heir is mediocre in intelligence, but today's words made Zhiyao look sideways at Zhao Wuxie, thinking: This person looked dull before, is it because he is hiding his clumsiness?

Seeing that Zhiyao changed the situation on the "battlefield" with a few words, all the courtiers of the Jin Kingdom, including the King of Jin, looked slightly relieved, and Zhao Zhifu, who was in power in the Jin Kingdom, also turned his attention to the heir of the Zhi family. The head of the Zhi family was seriously ill , I heard that the witch doctor has predicted that it will only happen in these three to five days. According to the system of the Jin State's six ministers who are in power in turn, the next ruler should be the Zhi family. .

Thinking of Yang Hu's report, Zhao Zhifu looked at Zhiyao with a slightly complicated expression, but Zhiyao, who was triumphantly defeating Xia Yu's spirit, didn't notice.

After listening to Zhao Wuxie's explanation of Zhiyao's approach, Xia Yu was slightly silent, and then said, "And then?"

Zhiyao glanced at Xia Yu, and said, "Then we will unite with Yan Kingdom..."

Xia Yu interrupted Zhiyao directly, and said, "Siqing, have you forgotten that according to the background of our deduction this time, Yan State has been destroyed by Qi State."

Zhiyao proudly said: "Of course I know, but the Crown Prince Yan is still a guest in our Jin State, and Crown Prince Yan's convincing is the pillar of Yan State's army. Yan State has been established for a long time, even if Qi State can conquer Yan State, it may not be possible. I can win the hearts of the Yan Kingdom in a short time, so as long as my Jin Kingdom sends Prince Yan back to the country, there will be chaos in Yan, and the army of the Qi Kingdom can still confront our Jin Kingdom safely?"

As soon as Zhiyao's words came out, Xia Yu remained silent. No matter whether he was a scholar, a monarch, or a minister of various countries, no matter whether he was a military strategist or not, he knew that Zhiyao had already turned the "battle" and gained the upper hand.

Just when everyone was still expecting Xia Yu to come up with an ingenious strategy to "conquer" Jin, Xia Yu went to say what everyone expected in the distance, saying: "Jin doesn't need to wait until Qi destroys Yan before releasing the prince to convince others." , Jin can release people now."

Zhiyao was taken aback, not only Zhiyao, but also Zhao Wuxie, Han Hu, Wei Ju and everyone in Qiqitai were taken aback, but then the quick-witted people had already remembered Xia Yu's identity at this time—Yan Guo Prince Naizuo, some people suddenly understood something, and those who understood something suddenly felt like they were being tricked.

Zhiyao's reaction was quick. Thanks to the private meeting with Xia Yu a few days ago, he quickly figured out everything. Shangqing's successor (Siqing) was so serious that he had a "talking about soldiers on silk" with Xia Yu, it was like being kicked in the head by a donkey.

At this time, Zhao Zhifu, who had been silent since the beginning of the military discussion, finally spoke, and said: "Prince Yan persuaded others to humiliate my Zhao family and my Jin country. How can we allow him to return to the country so easily?"

Xia Yu said: "The Lord of Yan's concubine is in Qi at this time, and Young Master Bai has an affair with Qi. I don't think you don't know the inside story of the ruling... But these are not important. The real important thing is that Qi's army is close to Yishui. Perhaps it was because of the alliance with the ruling family of the Jin State, or it may be because knowing that the Jin State is forming an alliance at this time, the Qi State is very relieved, and does not worry that the Jin State will regret taking advantage of the Qi State’s army to go north and attack Qi.”

Speaking of this, Xia Yu looked at Zhao Zhifu and said, "Qi State is at ease governing, are you assured of governing Qi State? If Qi State is made bigger, isn't it afraid that it will repeat itself 20 years ago?"

Zhao Zhifu's expression was still as solemn as a rock, but he suddenly moved, got up and walked down the high platform, and in the process of walking down the upper steps, he picked up a candlestick at the side very naturally, until he reached the place where the world returns to one On the side of the picture, Zhiyao, Zhao Wuxie, Han Hu, and Wei Ju all naturally took a step back to make way for Zhao Zhifu.

Zhao Zhifu stood there, looking at this detailed map of the world's mountains and rivers, and said: "Talking about armies with empty words is just empty jokes. If you can really get back together, my son will not let you live. If you want to lead the army on the battlefield , is even more delusional."

As soon as Zhao Zhifu said this, the few people closest to him immediately realized that the words were addressed to Xia Yu. Facing his father, Zhao Wuxie bowed his head in silence, while Zhiyao frowned slightly, thinking in his heart: Shi Zi and Tian Shi were quite controversial three years ago, did Zhao Shi want to use this to cut off Xia Yu's retreat?Is it too much of a fuss?

Xia Yu naturally understood what Zhao Zhifu meant, and she didn't get angry, but said calmly: "If the four secretaries of the Jin Kingdom can cooperate with each other with a tacit understanding after the resignation, it is almost wishful thinking."

Zhao Zhifu turned his head to look at Xia Yu, and said for a while, "You have wasted your strength for a long time to tell me that the destruction of Yan State is not good for Jin State, isn't it just that you want me to let your husband-lord go? , Kneel down to apologize for Yan Guo, and I will let him go."

Xia Yu was taken aback.

Zhao Zhifu's expression was as cold as a stone, and he said indifferently: "This is the state of Jin. As long as I live for a day, I will not allow anyone to try to insult the state of Jin."

Xia Yu fell silent for a while, then knelt down on one knee and bowed to the king of the state of Jin on the high platform, saying: "The state of Yan has nothing to do with it, and its actions are inappropriate. I apologize to the state of Bo, and I pray that the state of Bo is kind and generous. I made a mistake in the country of Yan, let the crown prince of the country of Yan go back to the country."

King Jin unconsciously glanced at Zhao Zhifu, seeing Zhao Zhifu nodded slightly, King Jin Dinggong said: "Please, my wife, I have agreed to this matter."

Xia Yu stood up again, and Zhao Zhifu, who was holding a candlestick, looked at the picture of the return of the four seas under his feet, and said to Xia Yu: "You just said this picture to give away?"

Xia Yu said humbly, "Send it to someone who dares to accept it."

Zhao Zhifu said: "Then give it to me."

Zhao Wuxie frowned slightly when he heard this. At this time, the kings of all countries are here, and the Zhou royal family is also there. It is very inappropriate for Zhao Zhifu to accept the picture of the return of the four seas, because it is tantamount to publicly expressing that there is a king. mind of things.

However, before Zhao Wuxie could open his mouth, Xia Yu had already said: "If the ruler dares to accept it, of course I will give it away."

Zhao Zhifu nodded, then took a few steps back, walked down from the map, and suddenly threw the candle flame from the candlestick in his hand on the map, and saw that the white silk immediately caught fire, starting from the Central Plains of Jin Kingdom. , and finally spread to all sides, the bottom of the white silk is the leather used as the base, and it is not easy to burn at this time, so only the top layer of white silk with the map drawn is instantly gone.

Seeing that the white silk was completely burned, Zhao Zhifu said loudly: "He who returns to one from all over the world is the king." After a pause, Zhao Zhifu looked at the magistrate sent by the royal family of Zhou, and said loudly: "He is the heavenly king of the Zhou clan. !"

The royal family of Zhou knew that this was Zhao Zhifu's wish to show respect for the royal family of Zhou, and it was tantamount to saving face for him, so they hurriedly said: "The one who returns to one is the king of heaven."

As soon as he saw that he was in power and Zhou's royal family had spoken, the courtiers of the Jin Kingdom naturally followed suit and said: "The one who returns the four seas to one is the king of heaven."

The discussion on soldiers on the silk ended with Zhao Zhifu's conclusion, and Zhao Zhifu, who returned to his seat, heard Han Buxin complaining beside him: "Why did you burn it? It would be good to leave it for our Jin country to use."

Zhao Zhifu said indifferently: "There is nothing in the name, especially what is clear has no reality."

Zhao Zhifu didn't say any more after that, but turned his head to the attendant beside him and said, "After the alliance is over, ask Xia Yu to come to see me in the government."
