Han Dang is stronger

Chapter 453
In fact, Sui He and Lu Jia unintentionally did Mr. Uncle Sun a big favor. If they hadn't personally assassinated Mr. Uncle Sun, Qi Wang Tianjia, who had never had direct contact with the Han army, would most likely not be with Uncle Sun. When Mr. Sun met, there was even a great possibility to fulfill his promise to Lu Jia and Sui He, and cook Mr. Sun to death without saying a word, so as to show his unwavering loyalty to Xiang Yu.

However, the assassination by Lu Jia and Sui He had the opposite effect. After escaped from their pursuit, Mr. Shu Sun immediately realized that if he couldn't see Tian Jia quickly, he would make up his mind to escape even if he could. It is impossible to escape from Linzi City, and no matter where they hide, as long as they are discovered by Lu Jia and others, they will absolutely dare to kill themselves without Tian Jia's consent, so they gritted their teeth and fled to the gate of King Qi's palace Ask for a meeting, and directly seek the protection of Tian Jia himself.

As expected by Mr. Uncle Sun, after the situation was reported to Tian Jia, Tian Jia really jumped into a rage immediately, and said angrily: "How courageous! The envoys of the Western Chu Army don't take this king seriously. Without my king's permission, you dared to kill the envoy of the Han bandit in the capital of the widow, that is the extreme madness!"

Clay figurines also have a three-point earth temperament, not to mention Tian Jia is still a prince after all?So under extreme rage, Tian Jia not only ordered the guards to immediately bring Mr. Shusun into the palace for protection, but also shouted: "Immediately send someone to bring the envoys of the Western Chu Army to the king! The king will ask him face to face." They, do they have the final say in this country of Qi, or this king?!"

It was not bad for Lu Jia and Sui He. After finally entering the Qi King's Palace, although Mr. Shusun immediately asked Tian Jia to meet him, Tian Jia was not in a hurry to meet him. Otherwise, if Uncle Sun The husband is the first to say that he has saved Su He's life, so Tian Jia must have a worse impression of Lu Jia and Su He.And when the Qi Palace guards finally found Lu Jia and Sui He, who were searching for Mr. Uncle Sun all over the city, and learned that Mr. Uncle Sun had fled directly to the Palace of the King of Qi, Lu Jia and Sui He immediately screamed that something was wrong, so they could only He hurried to the palace with the guards to meet Tian Jia.

This time, luck was on the side of Lu Jia and Sui He. When they entered the palace, the envoys of the Han Army just received the news that Mr. Shu Sun had sent clothes, a seal and a letter from Uncle Zhou to Tian Jia, which had just been washed away. Mr. Uncle Sun, who was covered in charcoal ashes, was changing his clothes, so they arrived first, and saw Tian Jia one step earlier than Mr. Uncle Sun.

"Are the two gentlemen going to give the widow an explanation for today's matter?"

Of course, this was Tian Jia's first words when he saw Lu Jia and Sui He. Lu Jia and Sui He, who had already discussed on the road, immediately pulled the tiger's skin as a banner, saluted Tian Jia, and said, "Forgive me, King Qi. The foreign ministers and others also know that today's matter is too presumptuous, but there is nothing we can do about it. The envoy sent by the Han rebels to Linzi was ordered to be executed immediately. The foreign ministers and others know that this is too offensive to Qi Wang Shengwei, so they dare not say any more, and only ask the king to speak freely."

After all, Lu Jia and Sui He really pleaded guilty to Tian Jia, pretending to be terrified of letting Tian Jia be slaughtered, and then, as Lu Jia Sui expected, they dare not offend Tian Jia of the Western Chu Army. No matter how angry they were, they did not dare to do anything to them. They could only shout with a livid face: "Then why don't you report to the widow first? The traitor is also the enemy of the widow. You want to kill the traitor Messenger, can I not agree?"

"If you would readily agree, we wouldn't do this." Lu Jia and Sui He snorted coldly in their hearts, and then Lu Jia paused and replied: "Your Majesty blamed it, and the foreign ministers were too impulsive. But There are also reasons for this. The first reason is that General Zuo Sima Xiangzhuang of our Western Chu Army has an order, and the second is that you know, your majesty, that the family members, women and children of foreign ministers waiting in Nanyang have all been murdered by the Han bandits, and they have a deep hatred with the Han bandits. We don't share the same fate, so we drove out such a thing on a whim."

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict to deal with the two foreign ministers." Sui He also hurriedly said: "The foreign ministers and others did such a ridiculous thing on the spur of the moment. I really regret it, so the foreign ministers and others dare not say more What, I can only ask the king to dispose of it as he pleases, and the foreign ministers absolutely dare not have any complaints."

If Lu Jia and Sui He did not have the background of the Western Chu Army, then it goes without saying that Tian Jia must immediately order the guards to push them out and behead them immediately, but there is no way, Tian Jia will not dare to offend the Western Chu Army no matter what. So I can only force myself to calm down with my chest rising and falling, and I have to find a way to find a way for myself to step down.It turned out to be a coincidence, just at this time, Mr. Uncle Sun’s report came from outside the hall, and Tian Jia also took the opportunity to go down the steps, and shouted: "Get up, we will talk about your affairs later, first bring the Han thief envoy with you." Come up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Jia and Sui He hurriedly thanked them, and when they got up, Lu Jia and Sui He quickly exchanged glances, and they were all ready - just waiting for Mr. , They immediately turned black and white, insisting that the Han army killed their families and children in Nanyang!

To Lu Jia and Sui He's surprise, after they were led to the main hall of the Qi Palace, Mr. Uncle Sun not only didn't have red eyebrows and green eyes when he saw them, on the contrary, he saluted Tian Jia respectfully as usual, and said loudly: "The subordinates of the King of Han are shooting Servant Uncle Sun Tong, thank King Qi for saving his life."

"Thank you, sir." Tian Jia's attitude towards Mr. Uncle Sun was not very good, and said with a sneer, "The widow is only saving your life for the time being. How to send you off will be discussed later."

"It doesn't matter, since the foreign ministers have come to Qi State, they are naturally prepared to let the King of Qi do whatever they want." Mr. Shusun seemed to be a different person suddenly, not only did he no longer have his trademark greed for life and fear of death on his face On the contrary, he became calm and confident, and said to Tian Jia, "but before the king of Qi disposes of the foreign ministers, please ask the king of Qi to show mercy and allow the foreign ministers to ask the envoy of the Western Chu Army a question."

"Ask the envoy of the Western Chu Army a question?" Tian Jia hesitated, then subconsciously nodded and said, "Okay, you can ask."

"Thank you, King Qi." Mr. Uncle Sun cupped his hands in gratitude, then got up even more gracefully and turned to Sui He and Lu Jia, and said loudly: "Mr. I don’t blame you for the kindness of saving my life back then. I don’t blame you. Now I just ask you one question, what did you do to the people of the Qi Kingdom who sacrificed their lives to save me just now? Did you hurt them?”

"What a cunning old man, he is obviously scolding us for being ungrateful and repaying kindness with revenge, but he can still say it so beautifully."

Sui He and Lu Jia were secretly angry, so they didn't answer Mr. Shusun's question. Mr. Shusun immediately became angry and shouted: "Why don't you speak? Did you kill that Qi family? Old man Let me tell you, if you kill me for your kindness, I don’t need to argue with you, but if you really kill the family of Qi people who rescued this old man, you will die! Even if our Han army soldiers catch you in the future, we will definitely not I will accept your surrender, and will only cut you to pieces, and avenge that innocent family of Qi people!"

After saying that, Mr. Shusun quickly turned to Tianjia, cupped his hands again and said: "King Qi, it seems that the family of Qi people has really been murdered by these two people. The foreign ministers have always been favored by others. I will definitely repay you with Yongquan, and I also ask the king of Qi to allow the foreign ministers to take out a sum of money to thank the living relatives of the people of the Qi country, so as to express the foreign ministers' gratitude to them."

Of course, Tian Jia understood that Mr. Uncle Sun was knocking on the sidelines, telling himself how Lu Jia and Sui He were running rampant in Linzi City, and how they did not take him, the King of Qi, seriously, but he still couldn't help being angry. Feeling reborn, he turned to Lu Jia and Sui He and asked with a sneer, "You two gentlemen, why don't you speak? What have you done to the people of this kingdom?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry." Lu Jia answered bravely, "The ministers didn't do anything to them, they just asked them about the whereabouts of the traitor's envoy, and then let them go."

"Mr. Suihe, I hope you don't lie to me again." Mr. Shusun said immediately: "At the beginning, King Shenyang of Han wanted to cook you to death with a tripod. Thank you for the old man's method, and thank that family of innocent Qi people."

"Old fellow!" Sui He became impatient and hurriedly shouted, "I killed you because..."

"Okay!" Mr. Shusun interrupted Sui He immediately, and said: "I have already said that I don't care about your kindness and revenge, and you will pay back your savior. You don't need to say any more. When I saved you, I was blind at the time." Just save a white-eyed wolf!"

"Old man!"

Sui He was furious after being insulted by Mr. Uncle Sun, and subconsciously grabbed the handle of his waist. Mr. Uncle Sun laughed when he saw it, and said, "Mr. Sui He, what are you doing? In front of King Qi, what do you want to do?" ?”

Lu Jia hurriedly pressed Sui He, Tian Jia was full of anger, and said coldly, "Mr. Sui He, do you really need someone to remind you that this is my king's Qi Palace, not your Western Chu army camp? "

Sui He had no choice but to let go of the hilt of his sword, obediently apologized to Tian Jia again, and Mr. Sun took the opportunity to add fuel to the flames and said, "King Qi, forgive me for speaking bluntly. I still want your life! If they kill this old man, they will kill you indirectly, King Qi!"

"Scaremongering!" Tian Jia said proudly: "What are you, worthy of being compared with others?"

"Foreign ministers are lowly Confucian scholars, of course they are not worthy to be compared with the king of Qi." Mr. Shusun hit the snake with the stick and immediately continued: "But the foreign ministers are definitely not scaremongering, because once they kill the foreign ministers, it is equal to death You have been forced into a dead end that you cannot turn back, King Qi. From now on, you can only be at their mercy, like a slave, and you dare not disobey the slightest bit, and you have to be buried with the Xichu bandit army .”

"Old man, shut up! Don't talk sweet words here!" When Lu Jia heard this, he hurriedly cupped his hands to Tian Jia and said, "King Qi, this old man Shusun Tong is obviously trying to provoke and slander you, trying to drive a wedge between your country and our west. Regarding the relationship between the Chu army, please King Qi immediately issue an order to push this old man out and behead him in public!"

"King Qi, look, Mr. Lu Jia is really in a hurry, isn't he?"

Mr. Shusun laughed and said, "Mr. Lu Jia, it's useless to be impatient. King Qi is so wise and wise. How can he not understand your vicious intentions? As long as you kill this old man, Han and Qi will completely turn against each other. There is no longer any possibility of reconciliation, and then the king of Qi has no choice but to let your foxes pretend to be tigers to manipulate you at will under the banner of the Western Chu Army, and you can only let you run rampant and bully in Qi. , do you really think that King Qi doesn’t know anything? King Qi is just holding back for the time being, and watching you clowns jump on the beam for the time being.”

"Old man, you are talking nonsense!" Lu Jia became even more anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly turned to Tian Jia and said, "King Qi, please don't listen to this old man's instigation. How dare you have such thoughts."

"If you didn't have the guts, you wouldn't be killing people and bullying the widow's people in Linzi City today." Tian Jia snorted coldly in his heart, but he didn't say a word.

"King Qi, please allow the foreign ministers to get straight to the point." Mr. Shusun cupped his hands again and said, "Although the foreign ministers have only arrived in Linzi today and haven't had time to inquire about any news, they can guess the purpose of Lu Jia and Sui He's visit. It is nothing more than to persuade you, Your Majesty, to send troops to reinforce the Licheng battlefield, let the soldiers of the Qi State shed their blood, and help their Western Chu army win the battle in Licheng. The interests of the Qi State, the Jibei Ping Fan who protects the Qi State also indirectly protects the Qi State itself, that’s all. The foreign minister dares to ask the King of Qi to make it clear, did the foreign minister guess correctly?”

"So what if you guessed right?" Tian Jia still didn't have a good look at Mr. Uncle Sun, and said coldly, "Is there something wrong with their words?"

"Of course you are right!"

Mr. Uncle Sun's unexpected answer stunned Tian Jia, and made Lu Jia and Sui He's eyes widen together. Then, Mr. Uncle Sun said even more surprisingly, "Suppose the foreign minister is in your position, King Qi. , will definitely choose this way, and the reason is very simple. Only by keeping Jibei can we stop our Han army from marching into Qi, and only by helping the West Chu army and Jibei army win Licheng at any cost. Only then can you free up your hands and concentrate on dealing with other enemies in the rear. If not, no matter how many troops are left in Qi, once the Jibei Army is destroyed, you will still be unable to stop our Han army from advancing. Qi country!"

Unexpectedly, Mr. Shusun would actually speak for the West Chu Army. Of course, Tian Jia could only look suspiciously at Mr. Shusun, and then asked in doubt, "What else do you want to say, sir?"

"The foreign minister just wants to remind King Qi that although doing so is the right choice, it is too risky. It is tantamount to betting on the fortune of Qi and your wealth and life." Mr. Shusun said with a smile: "This gamble It’s easy to say if you win, all problems can be easily solved, but once you lose the bet, not only will the country of Qi perish, but you will lose your throne as King Qi, and you will lose your wealth and life as well as your head!”

"Bold old man, how dare you threaten King Qi like that?!" Lu Jia hurriedly shouted, "King Qi, this old man is so rude to you, why don't you kill him?"

Sui He hurriedly followed suit and shouted at Mr. Uncle Sun. Mr. Uncle Sun, who was known to be greedy for life and fear of death, was rare and fearless, and smiled at Tian Jia and said, "King Qi, the ministers don't understand Now, since you are betting on Qi's national fortune and your wealth and life, why don't you bet on the side that is sure to win? Why do you want to bet on the side that is not sure of victory? You are destined to barely win the bet , it will only be a serious injury to the vitality, and the loss outweighs the gain?"

Lu Jia and Sui He's expressions all changed, and they hurriedly asked Mr. Shusun: "Who will win? Don't you traitors dare to say that you have a sure chance of winning?"

"Of course I dare not say that the chances of winning are sure." Mr. Shusun's answer surprised everyone present again, and he said more directly: "If the king of Qi refuses to listen to the good advice of his foreign ministers and insists on cutting them to pieces, he also insists If we want to send troops to Licheng, our Han army may not be sure to take Licheng and Jinbei. The old man never likes to lie, so naturally he will not deceive the king of Qi, saying that even if the king of Qi sends troops to Licheng, our Han army will be stable Play the odds."

Speaking of this, Mr. Shusun paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "But King Qi, have you considered this issue? Even if you help the Xichu bandit army barely win the battle of Licheng, what will you gain? Even if our Han army loses in Licheng, we can retreat and regroup in Zhao, and then make a comeback in the future. Today, Guanzhong Shu, Sanjin Yanbei, and Nanyang Jingchu are all owned by our King of Han. Even if we conquer Qi in the east If you fail once or twice, or even three times or four times, you can recruit the army to start again, no matter how many times you lose, you are not afraid, but what about you, King Qi? Do you dare to lose once?"

Tian Jia was completely silent, Lu Jia and Sui He became even more anxious when they heard this, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, please don't listen to this old man's alarmist talk, as long as we kill and retreat the Han thief Zhou Shu's men, we will be killed immediately." Make a big counterattack, take back the Zhao land and the three Jins, and then march into Guanzhong Bashu!"

"King Qi, do you believe this is possible?" Mr. Shusun laughed again, and said, "At the beginning, our King of Han was only concerned with the land of Central Ba and Shu, and the King of Western Chu used the power of the six countries outside the pass to attack our King of Han. What is it like? At that time, our Han army was not afraid of the crazy attack of the Western Chu bandit army, let alone now?"

"King Qi, don't listen to this old man's nonsense!" Sui He and Lu Jia almost roared.

"King Qi, with your wisdom and wisdom, you must be very clear." Mr. Shusun continued: "Yes, you have sent all your troops to reinforce Licheng at any cost. The decisive battle in Jibei, but correspondingly, your army will definitely pay a heavy price! In addition, taking advantage of the emptiness in your country, the Qi royal family similar to Tian Heng and others will definitely take the opportunity to stir up trouble and rebel. When the time comes Even if you win in Jibei, you will definitely lose your vitality and strength, and the gains outweigh the losses!"

"Since there is no certainty of winning, and it is doomed that even if you win, you will suffer a lot of damage. Why don't you bet on the winning side, King Qi?"

Mr. Shusun suddenly raised his voice, and said: "If you, King Qi, abandon Chu and return to Han now, you don't even need to take the risk of dispatching your main force to enter Licheng, as long as you let your army in Licheng defect, then you will definitely win Undoubtedly, all problems can be easily solved!"

"At that time, not only will our Han army not attack Qi and take away your throne, but we will immediately go to Ling Tian Heng and order him to lead the army to withdraw from Qi. If he does not listen, our Han army will not only not Help him, on the contrary, I will send troops to help you conquer him!"

"At that time, your majesty, do you still have to worry about hidden dangers in the rear, and worry about rebellious officials and thieves like Tian Heng and others rebelling? Isn't your position as the king of Qi, your state of Qi, the country and the country, like iron and bronze, ten thousand Years are not easy? Wouldn’t it be far better to bet a thousand times? Ten thousand times on the side of the Western Chu bandits?!”

"Old man! Shut up! Shut up! I'll kill you!"

Lu Jia and Sui He were completely at a loss for words, and they couldn't bear it anymore. They could only draw their swords to fight Mr. Uncle Sun. However, they forgot that this was King Qi's Palace in their rage. Their swords had just been unsheathed. The guards had already rushed up, pointing their weapons at them, forcing them to dare not move.Mr. Uncle Sun's expression was as usual, and then he handed over Uncle Zhou's letter to Tian Jia to persuade him to surrender, and said: "King Qi, this is what the foreign ministers have said. How to make a decision, I leave it to King Qi to make his own decision."

Of course, the letter was presented to Tian Jia very quickly. When Tian Jia took the letter and read it carefully, Lu Jia and Sui He were so frightened that it was beyond description. Surrounded by the guards, they hurriedly shouted: " King Qi, King Qi, don't listen to this old man's nonsense, don't forget that the King of Western Chu granted you the title of King of Qi, and the King of Western Chu has a great favor for you!"

"West Chu King has a great kindness to King Qi?" Mr. Shusun laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Sui He, have you forgotten this question? The old man told Han Wang Shen Yang the answer back then. The throne of King Qi belongs to him." It was King Qi's due reward for leading the soldiers of Qi State on the battlefield against Tyrant Qin, so why should King Qi thank him?"

"Also, if the king of Western Chu really had favor with King Qi, then when he sent troops to attack Tian Shi and Tian Rong, why did he kill people and set fires everywhere in Qi, kill prisoners, plunder people's property, and rob women? Why not Think about the feelings of the King of Qi? If he, the King of Western Chu, had the slightest sense of benevolence and righteousness and treated the people of Qi a little bit kindly, why would Tian Heng respond to everyone in Jiaodong Chengyang and quickly pull up an army of tens of thousands to make things difficult for the King of Qi? "

"Old man, shut up!" Lu Jia pointed his sword at Mr. Uncle Sun and yelled, "If you dare to say one more word, Nai Weng will kill you right now!"

"Shut up for the widow!"

After Lu Jia was interrupted by angry shouting, Tian Jia, who had already read Uncle Zhou's letter, first looked up at Mr. Uncle Sun, and after a while he said slowly: "I was born in the army, so I like to gamble, but I only like to gamble to win, never I like to gamble and lose."

After saying that, Tian Jia suddenly shouted loudly: "Take Lu Jia and Sui He for the widow! Then send someone to the post house and take all their entourage for the widow. None of them are allowed to escape!"

When the guards in the hall were singing promises, Mr. Shusun turned to Sui He, who was already ashen-faced, and said: "Mr. Sui He, I learned from Confucianism, and I pay attention to repaying evil with virtue, but my old teacher Confucius also said this, Only the benevolent can be good and evil. I will remember the teachings of my predecessors, and I will never repeat the same mistakes this time for people like you who repay kindness with hatred, and I beg the king of Qi to spare you."
