Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 217

"Mr. Wang, what wind brought you, an honored guest, to Laizi?" When Hou Sheng saw Wang Ao's face, he said in surprise, "Mr. Wang, you really did not inform me when you were coming to Laizi. I will go to Changting to meet you."

Hou Sheng is white and fat, with an air of grace and luxury in his body. He is not tall, but he is quite big. If people who don't know his details will definitely regard him as a wealthy local rich man, they will not think that he is Qi Guo His prime minister, the uncle of King Qi.

Friends who are familiar with history know that Hou Sheng was a well-known treacherous minister in the later period of Qi State. The reason why he became prime minister was not because of his extraordinary talents, but because he was the uncle of Qi Wangjian and the younger brother of the heroine and queen.

There are two most famous women in the history of Qi State. One is the legendary ugly woman Zhong Lichun from Wuyan clan.

Another famous woman is Qi Wangjian's mother, King Queen.Le Yi attacked Qi, and the Qi country was destroyed. Prince Fazhang fled and came to the queen's house to work as a servant.By chance, the eldest lady at that time, and later the queen queen, saw Fazhang and was very surprised by his appearance. It was very strange that someone with a strange appearance came to be a servant. There must be something wrong, so she summoned Fazhang for questioning. .Fa Zhang didn't dare to tell the truth, he lied a lot, the queen knew he had something to hide, so she didn't ask, but sent someone to bring him delicious food and gave him special treatment.After a long time, the two developed a love affair, privately engaged in life, and married before they were married.

After Tian Dan returned to the country, Fazhang ascended the throne, and the queen became the queen as a matter of course.The Queen is very courageous and politically talented, and she has a lot of credit for recovering the dilapidated Qi State and making Qin State fearful.At that time, the Prime Minister of Qin State, Fan Sui, heard about her deeds and wanted to test her, so he sent someone to Yu Lianhuan to ask her to explain.In front of the Qin envoy, the queen ordered someone to smash the jade ring, and told the Qin envoy that you go back and tell the king of Qin that I have untied the jade ring.After Fan Sui knew about it, he lamented that there are people in Qi State who should not be neglected, and further strengthened the strategy of far-distance and close-attack.

Qi Wangjian had no political ability, and everything was decided by the queen. The queen was fine, but when the queen died, the problem came out.

Hou Sheng is an extremely greedy person. The King of Qin sent someone to bribe him. When he heard that Wang Ao, the celebrity in the eyes of the King of Qin, came, he would not be overjoyed.

Wang Ao smiled slightly, and said back: "The prime minister is involved in state affairs, how dare Wang Ao disturb the prime minister."

"Come here, please sit down, please sit down." Hou Sheng took Wang Ao's hand, pressed Wang Ao on the brocade pier, and said, "Sir, you really want to kill me." After looking at it for a while, he said: "I haven't seen you for a long time. Mr. Wang is more energetic. I'm happy for you."

Wang Ao smiled and said: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your concern." After the polite words, he went straight to the topic and said, "Wang Ao is here to give gifts to the prime minister by the order of my king." He took out the gift list from his arms and handed it to Hou Sheng said, "Please take a look, Prime Minister."

Hou Sheng glanced at the list of gifts in a hurry, with only a small gap in his eyes, and said with all his strength: "Your Majesty loves you so much, and your ministers are very grateful. How can I accept such an important gift?"

He was 120 satisfied and wanted to accept it, but he just said some polite words. Wang Ao's heart was like a mirror, and he said: "The prime minister has done his best for Daqin, and the king is very satisfied. He often said that if everyone is like the prime minister, how much would it be?" it is good."

This is a lie, King Qin would not praise such a villain as Housheng, Wang Ao is a lobbyist, just talking casually, but Housheng was so happy that he almost jumped up, if he was a rooster, he must have jumped on the beam to crow , Said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wang Ao changed the subject and said: "However, the king also said that he just doesn't know how much loyalty the prime minister has to Daqin now."

Hou Sheng suddenly fell from the extreme excitement to the abyss, and the joy was exhausted. He said in surprise: "Mr. Wang, you know that I am loyal to Daqin, which shows the sun."

Wang Ao said indifferently: "Really? The king asked me to ask you, Qi sent troops to help Zhao, is there such a thing?"

Hou Sheng turned pale, and said: "Mr. Wang, there is such a thing, but I told the king that Qin State just destroyed Zhao, and it has nothing to do with our Qi State, so there is no need to send troops. But that Gongsun Bian is fickle. , mustering a three-inch tongue, he insisted on talking about a group of courtiers, saying that the state of Zhao is the lips, and the state of Qi is the teeth. If the state of Zhao is destroyed, the state of Qi will be gone. It was too late for Qi Guo to regret.

"At first, I didn't believe it, but when I thought about it carefully, what they said made sense. It's obvious that Qin State destroyed Zhao State, so how could they not deal with our Qi State? Mr. Wang, you are a sensible person, you said yes Isn't this the case? I dare not accept this gift, please Mr. Wang return it to the king, and the minister thanked the king."

It can be seen that he is indeed in a dilemma, Wang Ao said with a smile: "Prime Minister, but it doesn't matter. The king sent me to Qi State for this purpose. Wang Ao came here to prevent Qi State from sending troops, but in fact Save the prime minister."

This is a bit mysterious, Hou Sheng couldn't figure it out, and asked, "Mr. Wang, what do you mean by that?"

Wang Ao stood up, paced and said: "This is an obvious thing, tell me, even if Qi sends troops, can it stop Qin from destroying Zhao?"

The result was clear, and Hou Sheng didn't even think about it, and replied: "No. The current Zhao State doesn't even have half of the country, and it is not an opponent of Daqin at all. Even if Qi sends troops, it is impossible to defeat Daqin. Take some time to breathe."

Pointing at Hou Sheng, Wang Ao questioned, "The Prime Minister knows the ending, why do you want to bring trouble on yourself?"

Hou Sheng looked puzzled, and said, "Mr. Wang, I don't quite understand what you said."

Wang Ao pointed to the confusion and said: "The Qi State sent troops at this time, just to blame Da Qin. Qi and Qin's friendship for decades was ruined because of this. This is something the King of Da Qin does not want to see. You know Da Qin's practice, who If Da Qin is provoked, Da Qin will not let it go. Wang Ao boldly guessed that if Qi State sent troops to help Zhao, then Da Qin's next target must be Qi State. Prime Minister, do you think Qi State can withstand Da Qin's military might?
"No! Qi's demise will be just around the corner. At that time, for Qi, the prime minister will be the prime minister of the subjugated country. He has misunderstood the treacherous minister and is accused by thousands of people. The prime minister has many enemies in the country. If they take advantage of the situation and rise up, what will you do? The result? As for Daqin, you took Daqin’s money but did not do good things for Daqin. From a hero to a criminal, will the king of Daqin not kill you? It’s a pity that you have a great hero.” With a sigh, regretful, The performance is for Hou Sheng to watch.

Don't think about it, it must be the result of Qi's sending troops. Hou Sheng was so frightened that his legs trembled, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Why am I so useless? I didn't see through this level. Mr. Wang, wait, I will Go to see the king now, and ask the king not to send troops. The army hasn't set off yet, so there is still time to go, and if it is later, it will be too late." Turn around and run.

Wang Ao chuckled, and said: "Prime Minister, don't panic, it's not good for you to talk about it, let me talk about it."
