Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 264 The Change of Yan Kingdom ([-])

Qi State, the capital Linzi.

Ever since the King of Qi dispatched the senior doctor Yan Yun and the general Tian Jia to lead five thousand troops to meet Li Shi, the envoy of the Chu Liaison Alliance, the entire city of Linzi began to be undercurrents.

Not only the spies of Qin State, but also the spies of Wei State, Yan State, and Zhao State were forced to start probing the mind of King Qi.As the instigator, Xiangtian Rong of Qi Guoguo stayed behind closed doors, manipulating everything secretly.

"Your Majesty! We have used Zhao, Wei, and Yan's secret operations, but we still can't detect the spies of Chu; but we have already found many people from Qin's black ice platform!" In the study, I read Tian Rong's report from Confucian classics.

"I couldn't find the Chu people, but I found the Qin people." Tian Rong put down the books in his hand and shook his head.

"Your Majesty..." Deng Tang hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Tian Rong was very impatient: "Speak up if you have something to say, don't hesitate!"

"My subordinates are worried that these Qin people who were detected were leaked by Chu people. I want to use our hands to eradicate the influence of Heibingtai in Linzi County!" Deng Tang said his guess, and then waited quietly for Tian Tian. Rong's decision.

Since Deng Tang followed Tian Rong, he worked hard in everything, and thus became one of Tian Rong's three most trusted disciples.Now he is in control of all the secret forces in Linzi County under Tian Rong's command, and he can be regarded as a figure with less than one person and more than ten thousand people in Tian Rong's mansion.But he still didn't dare to make decisions on some matters without authorization. He only dared to secretly order Tian Rong to do things after reporting to Tian Rong for a waiting period to make a decision. This was where Tian Rong felt relieved.

"Regardless of whether it was leaked by the people of Chu, we, as Qi people, must eradicate all the power of Tyrant Qin in our country. Otherwise, why would we face the Qi people who died enslaved by Tyrant Qin, and the people under Jiuquan?" The ancestors of the Qi State?" Tian Rong thought for a while and made a direct decision.

Tian Rong's decision did not go beyond Deng Tang's guess, only to see Deng Tang nodded and cupped his hands: "This subordinate understands!"

Afterwards, Deng Tang prepared to resign from Tian Rong and give orders to go out.

At this time, Tian Rong suddenly asked: "Deng Tang, what do you think about the alliance with Chu?"

Hearing this, Deng Tang was a little astonished.But he bowed and replied: "I don't know what Xiangguo is thinking! But what I know is that if you want to defeat Tyranny, you need Chu to take action to have a great chance of winning. Although an alliance with Chu is not different from Seeking skins from tigers, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. At least, it is enough to make Zhang Han, who is going eastward, afraid of the Qi-Chu alliance and dare not easily invade our country!"

"In today's world, the elite and brave soldiers of the Chu State are far superior to the declining Qin State. However, the soldiers of the Qin State are still better than those of other countries in the Kanto region. The truth is that I am very worried that after Qi State joins the alliance, it will become a force for Chu State to attack Guanzhong Qin. Cannon fodder, which in turn makes our Qi State a subsidiary under the control of Chu State!" Tian Rong finally expressed his worries, which surprised Deng Tang a little.

Although Deng Tang can guess some of Tian Rong's thoughts, but he is not Tian Rong's roundworm, how can he know these.After Tian Rong finished speaking, Deng Tang's thoughts changed.

After a long time, Deng Tang suggested: "Your Majesty will definitely try his best to facilitate the formation of an alliance. Your Majesty might as well not stop it. You only need to persuade your Majesty to bring fewer troops to preserve your strength when he mobilizes troops for the alliance!"

"This is also a good strategy!" Tian Rong nodded after listening, and then worried again. "But I'm afraid the king won't listen to the truth! After all, although the king claims to be the king, he is still the king who can kill the officials of the Qin State in a fit of anger. If you want him to join the alliance, but don't do your best to destroy the Qin Dynasty, I'm afraid he will I will never agree!"

"This is for Xiangguo to mediate!" Deng Tang said bluntly after Tian Rong finished speaking.

The capital of Yan State, Ji.

The birthday of Yan Hai, Prime Minister of the State of Yan, is just now, and all post houses and inns in Jicheng are full of housekeepers from merchants and officials from all over the world.

At this time, Xiangguo's mansion was full of people, and Yanyang, the eldest son of Xiangguo Yanhai, was welcoming guests at the door on behalf of his father.

"The Chinese doctor sent five pairs of jade discs, fifty bolts of silk, and one hundred thousand coins to congratulate Xiangguo on his birthday!"

"The magistrate of Zhuo County sent three famous paintings, [-] bolts of silk, and [-] yuan to congratulate Xiangguo on his birthday!"

"The governor of Yuyang County sent the butler to send two boxes of jewelry, a hundred pieces of silk, and 20 yuan to celebrate Xiangguo's birthday!"

………………

Yan Yang received the officials and housekeepers representing officials from various places at the door, while the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's mansion was reading out the birthday gifts of each of them.

Lin Shu and Gongsun Shi were very surprised when they mentioned Yuyang County Sheriff and Shanggu County Sheriff.But after thinking about it, these two sheriffs are not satisfied with being shepherds. They naturally have to pay more attention to the news from the DPRK and China.

Then, Lin Shu, Gongsun Shi, Shi Dayuan, Gao Yi, Zou Yu, Tie Mo, Luan Bu and other generals and captains, Cai Jin, Ju Ze and other court ministers came one after another.At this time, it was Yan Hai's eldest son Yan Yang who received these people, and Yan Hai's sons and daughters led the way.

There was a sound of horseshoes from far to near. The leading general was wearing chain mail, brown underwear lined with silk, a tiger-striped cloak woven from Sichuan brocade, and a pair of rhinoceros boots.Five hundred personal guards and fine cavalry behind him set off the majesty of this general.

"The general is here!" Seeing this team, the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion immediately shouted happily.

The officials on the side stopped one after another, and each lined up on the left and right and bowed their hands in salute.

Yan Hai, who was talking with Cai Jin, Ju Ze and others in the prime minister's mansion, heard of Zang Tu's arrival, and brought a group of ministers and generals to the gate of the mansion to welcome Zang Tu.

Zang Tu got off his horse, and the soldiers on the side rushed to hold the horse that had followed Zang Tu for several years.

"I wish Xiang Guo good fortune like the East China Sea, and a longer life than Nanshan!" Zang Tu saw Yan Hai coming out to greet him in person, so he immediately cupped his hands and congratulated Yan Hai enough to save Yan Hai's face.

"The general's presence is a great honor to this old man, please!" Yan Hai also bowed his hands in return, and then made a gesture to ask Zang Tu to go first.

Seeing this, Zang Tu took Yan Hai's hand and walked into the gate of Xiangfu together.

After Zang Tu came, the gates of the entire Xiangfu opened even more enthusiastically.

The inner and outer courts of the prime minister's mansion were full of people.Either court officials or wealthy merchants from the three counties of Yan State, or famous Confucian scholars in the three counties.

Zhang Zhen entered the palace a long time ago and took Han Guang's edict to the treasury to pick out gifts, and then slowly came to the Prime Minister's Mansion under the protection of a thousand imperial guards.

While Yan Hai, Zang Tu and others were chatting about interesting things, Zhang Zhen entered with the imperial edict.

"The king's edict has arrived! Xiangguo Yanhai accepts the edict!"

"Chen is here!"

"Gu once heard that... Today is Xiangguo's birthday, and I can't leave the palace due to state affairs... I specially conferred the title of Xiangguo Yanhai Changping Lord, giving five thousand gold, one hundred thousand money, and five beauties." Ten, each with a hundred pieces of Sichuan brocade…………………”

After the edict was read out, everyone envied Yan Hai for receiving such a generous reward from Han Guang.

Yan Hai got up to receive the imperial edict, and then the birthday banquet began.

The guests shuttled among the wine tables, the officials flattered their superiors, and the rich and wealthy businessmen intentionally made friends with officials who were useful to them.
