After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 184
Now that the state of Jin is in such a state of chaos, the alliance of Qi State this time is naturally held very smoothly. The princes of various countries agreed to send troops to conquer the State of Jin together. Of course, there are some discordant situations.

The Song Dynasty has always regarded itself as orthodox, and their identities are quite different. They are survivors of the Shang Dynasty, and they can perform sacrifices with the ceremony of the Son of Heaven. Their political status is quite detached.

I don't care about the Han Kingdom that popped up out of nowhere, but Ji Dynasty is always a prince, and Song Hou can't say anything, but he doesn't pretend to be cool about Mengdi, seeing him often talking with Qihou in private .

So he found an opportunity, Song Hou said in front of many people.

"The Han Kingdom is nothing more than an unrecognized vassal state. Although there is a reward from the Prince Dynasty, it does not mean that it has been recognized by us. How can this covenant allow such people to join together?"

Zheng Hou was happy to see the success of this kind of thing, so he didn't say anything, and Wei Hou had a very good opinion of Meng Di in private, thinking that he would make a career sooner or later, so he was very cautious and didn't agree. .

The newly appointed Marquis of Lu naturally wouldn't say anything at this time. After all, Lu State had already established a secret covenant with Han State in private, and only some other small countries followed suit.

Originally, he was prepared in his heart and knew that he was not welcome, so he acted a bit maverick, but now that he was said so in person, he would also be angry in his heart, if he directly refuted it.

This is nothing more than gaining some advantages between words. Meng Di thought about it, and instead of doing so, he smiled at Qi Hou, then slapped the sword on his waist, and said.

"Recently, my country of Han was able to forge a kind of precious sword. Since so many people are present today, I want to borrow a bronze sword from Marquis Qi to try my saber, so that everyone can appreciate it."

Hearing this, Marquis Qi was a little displeased, but since Mengdi said so, he couldn't refute it on the spot, because everyone heard what Marquis Song said just now, so Marquis Qi felt embarrassed to be embarrassed by Mengdi. di.

A palace servant was summoned, Qi Hou gave a few instructions in a low voice, and then the palace servant turned and left.

It didn't take long for him to rush over with a bronze sword in his hand. This bronze sword was made by Qihou with a lot of money, and it is also a rare sharp weapon. At this time, he smiled and said to Meng Di.

"The bronze sword has been brought, and I want to see it too. Is there another magic weapon in the world?"

In front of so many people, he would not admit Mengdi's identity. He wanted to take such a sword. Seeing Mengdi making a fool of himself, Qi Hou stood aside with a smile, waiting to see what happened next. play.

Meng Di turned his head and said to a guard standing beside him.

"Ask this strong man to hold a bronze sword, and this king will strike him with his saber."

After hearing this, Marquis Qi nodded to the guard, and then the guard took a step forward, picked up the bronze sword, and clenched it with both hands.

At this time, Meng Di pulled out his sword from his waist like lightning and slashed it down. He heard a clang, and the bronze sword in the guard's hand was cut in half. All of them shut their mouths for a moment, incredulously. Looking at the scene in front of him.

At this time, Mengdi held his saber high in his hand, and said with a somewhat haughty expression.

"Please look carefully, is there any damage to the saber in this king's hand?"

After a while, everyone couldn't help but gasped. They were all knowledgeable people, and they knew that the bronze sword that Qihou took out was absolutely extraordinary, yet such a precious sword was cut off directly.

From this we can see how sharp the saber in Mengdi's hand is, so he started talking in a low voice.

"I think this sword is made of evil gold. It seems that Mengzi should have a new smelting method."

"If you can have such a sharp sword and gift it to warriors, then on the battlefield, there will be no disadvantages."

"It is estimated that this precious sword must be priceless. I didn't expect this Mengzi to have such a good thing in his hands."

In the midst of everyone's discussion, Mengdi walked up to Song Hou with a sword in his hand.

Seeing this scene, Song Hou backed back again and again in fright, but at this moment, Mengdi put the sword flat and held it up in both hands. At this moment, his face was full of smiles, releasing his kindness, and said in a peaceful tone.

"My state of Han borders the state of Song. When I first met the Marquis of Song, I didn't have any good presents. I will give this sword to the Marquis of Song."

After hearing this, Song Hou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, his face was a little cloudy, he just said that in front of everyone, just wanted to express his attitude, unexpectedly, Meng Di did not become angry because of this, Instead, he gave him the sword.

This made Song Hou's heart a little uncertain, and after he calmed down, he smiled with an ugly face.

"In that case, I would like to thank Mengzi for the gift."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to take the sword. At this time, Mengdi also unsheathed the sword from his waist, and he still had a smile on his face, but when he spoke again, his tone became very cold.

"I hope that after the Marquis of Song gets the sword, he can take it out from time to time to take a look. Today is a world of great conflict. If a small country wants to protect itself, it must have considerable strength. If it is sometimes offended by words, it should not offended enemy."

"I'm afraid it will cause some unnecessary troubles for the Song Dynasty. At that time, the cavalry under the king will definitely hold such a sword and fight the world for the reputation of the Han Kingdom."

What he said made Song Hou's face pale, and he seemed a little at a loss with the sword in his hand, but he had already said his words, so he couldn't swallow them back in front of so many princes, right?

However, the other princes present had different thoughts after hearing these words, and some of them thought in their hearts that they would find a way to send a caravan to Han to buy this kind of sword after returning home.

Of course, he was also thoughtful and quick-witted. When he heard Mengdi say that all the cavalry under his command would hold such a sword, he immediately realized that if this was true, then the combat effectiveness of the Han cavalry might be even stronger than what he had imagined. .

At this time, Mengdi looked around, with a very confident smile on his face, and he said in a deep voice.

"When King Jing of Zhou was alive, he intended to pass on the throne to the Prince Dynasty. Because of the participation of the Jin people, the Prince Dynasty was forced to go into exile. You are all subjects of the Emperor Zhou. An enemy! This king will never die with him!"
