Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 291

"Your Majesty is here, foreign minister Zhou Chong greets you with respect." Zhou Chong saluted the King of Chu very thoughtfully.

The King of Chu accepted the half-respect, and returned the half-respect, to show his respect for Zhou Chong. He supported Zhou Chong and said, "Mr. Zhou, please forgive me, please forgive me."

"Thank you sir." Zhou Chong thanked and saluted Li Yuan, "Zhou Chong has met the prime minister. The prime minister has honored him, and Zhou Chong is very grateful."

Li Yuan hurriedly replied: "Mr. Zhou invites you, but if Li Yuan dares to refuse, Li Yuan will bother Mr. Zhou with a glass of water and wine."

"To be honored by the prime minister, Zhou Chong is very touched." Zhou Chong pretended to be excited, and said, "We must not disappoint the prime minister. However, the water and wine in Daqin are too strong, and I am afraid it cannot compare with the wine in Chu State." Gentle taste."

Li Yuan still has some vision, and can judge the difference between the two countries from the wine, saying: "The Great Qin conquered the world, relying on a strong spirit. The wine of the Great Qin is the wine of martyrs. Li Yuan is honored to be a martyr once. .”

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kind words!" Zhou Chong thanked Zhang Liang, clasped his fists together, and said, "Zhou Chong has seen Zifang before. Zifang is a man of extraordinary intelligence, and he is willing to appreciate the honor and condescension. Zhou Chong is grateful, grateful."

Zhang Liang clasped his fists in return, blinked his eyes intentionally or unintentionally, and said: "Mr. Zhou is serious, Zhang Liang is very flattered to be invited by Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Chong understood what he meant, nodded slightly, and said, "My lords, please come inside, please come inside."

With all the generals, Zhou Chong let the kings and ministers of the state of Chu march into the army.Zhou Chong invited the monarch and ministers of the state of Chu to sit down, and passed the order, and the soldiers were busy setting up the banquet.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, Zifang, my lords: there is nothing good on the march, and besides, the soldiers only know how to fight, but they are not as good at cooking as the cooks in the palace. This dish may not be as you expected. Please bear with me." Zhou Chong raised his glass to invite, and said, "Please, Your Majesty."

The King of Chu raised his glass in response, and said, "Please, Mr. Zhou." He drank it all down.

Zhou Chong drank it up, took the pot and poured it for the king of Chu, and then poured it for himself, saying: "Thanks to the king for not giving up, coming to the army, Zhou Chong and the whole army are very grateful. Zhou Chong has nothing to respect, so I respect you." Let the king drink a cup, and wish Qin and Chu have a good relationship and last forever!"

This was to look at the big picture again, and the King of Chu couldn't refuse, saying: "For the sake of the eternal friendship between Qin and Chu, do it!" How indignant the people of Chu.

Zhou Chong refilled his cup, raised his glass and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers have the courage to wish the King ten thousand years of life! I wish the people of Chu State peace and prosperity!"

The king of Chu raised his glass and said, "Thank you Mr. Zhou for your kind words!"

Zhou Chong paid respects to the king of Chu, and then came to respect Li Yuan, saying: "Since the prime minister came to power, the people of Chu have enjoyed their work, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen have their own affairs. If everyone can be like the Prime Minister, why should the world worry about instability? Come, Prime Minister, Zhou Chong will offer you a toast."

Anyway, he was trying to fool them, so Zhou Chong tried his best to talk nicely, and he didn't hesitate to tell the truth.Sure enough, when Li Yuan heard the truth, he was overjoyed, and said: "Mr. Zhou has won the award. Li Yuan deserves this award! Li Yuan asked himself that he did his best and did nothing wrong. It’s really Li Yuan’s heart disease that he can’t be wiped out so far.”

Zhou Chong patted Li Yuan on the shoulder, and comforted him very affectionately: "The prime minister doesn't need to blame himself, this matter is on Zhou Chong. Zhou Chong hasn't spoken harshly before, so today he will speak harshly to the prime minister: If I will not destroy the humiliation, and I swear not to return to the army!"

To destroy Chu is of course to destroy both factions. There is no reason to destroy the Eastern Chu and leave the Western Chu. These words are the purpose and determination of Zhou Chong's trip. Except for Zhang Liangxin who is like a mirror, Li Yuan and the others know that They thought that Zhou Chong was determined to be Chu, and they were all overjoyed, applauding in unison.

The king of Chu burst into tears with gratitude, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, thank you, Mr. Zhou. Mr. Zhou has the kindness to recreate Da Chu, and he is the widow's reborn parents!"

Zhou Chong immediately argued and said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong! It is not Zhou Chong who rebuilt Chu, but the King of Great Qin. Zhou Chong is just running around. How can he be rebuilt? If Your Majesty wants to thank you, Let's wait until the king sees the king of Qin to thank him face to face."

Once the state of Chu was destroyed, the king of Chu would be a prisoner. He would definitely say thank you when he saw King Qin.The King of Chu didn't know the meaning of Zhou Chong's words, and said with a smile: "It must be, it must be! It must be, it must be!"

Zhou Chong paid respects to Li Yuan, came to Zhang Liang, and said, "Ovary, please drink this cup to the full!"

Just such a sentence, without saying anything else, but Zhang Liang understood Zhou Chong's meaning. It was to thank him, and thank Zhang Liang for his strategic planning to create today's situation.Another meaning is to congratulate Zhang Liang when his great achievements are about to be accomplished, and congratulate him on being able to meet the King of Qin because of his achievements, and from then on he will be able to show his unparalleled talents and benefit the common people.

Zhang Liang drank it all in one gulp, poured it out and said, "Mr. Zhou, please drink this cup to the full."

He was also the same as Zhou Chong, he only said a very plain sentence, but Zhou Chong knew the meaning of the words.One is to thank Zhou Chong for his enlightenment, and the other is to thank Zhou Chong for giving him the opportunity to make contributions.It can be said that if it weren't for Zhou Chong's hard work, Zhang Liang might not have turned that big bend, and he is still clinging to the idea of ​​being a Han, and he is still an out-and-out cynic. sincere.

Zhou Chong was very happy and said: "Zhou Fang's kindness is appreciated by Zhou Chong, but Zhou Chong is ashamed. Drinking with Zi Fang is a joy in life! Come, Zi Fang, let's drink this cup together."

Zhang Liang and Zhou Chong had a close relationship, they were close friends, if it wasn't for the situation and many scruples, they would have had a good time drinking and chatting long ago.Zhou Chong's words meant Zhang Liang's gratitude, and Zhou Chong didn't dare to accept it, because it was all the result of Zhang Liang's own efforts.

To others, Zhou Chong's words may not be true, they may be pretentious, but to Zhou Chong they are the truth, Zhang Liang secretly lamented Zhou Chong's heart, raised his glass happily, and said, "Mr. Zhou, do it! "The two drank it up, lit each other's cups, and laughed, so happy.

"My lords, please drink." Zhou Chong greeted the officials and said: "After drinking today, Zhou Chong will go to the battle. It is far away from the time to meet with you. Zhou Chong is here to offer you a drink. Tomorrow, Zhou Chong will go to the west. There must be good news, everyone, please raise your glasses, I wish Zhou Chong will be successful soon, and I will wipe out my negative thoughts."

The kings and ministers of the Chu Kingdom were all overjoyed, and said, "Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Chong drank it all, and said: "Everyone is happy, and I, Zhou Chong, are also happy. I am happy, but I have to say some disappointing things. You must not forget the danger when you live in safety. You have heard it before. Let's talk about mistakes. .”

The King of Chu asked with great interest: "Mr. Zhou, what's wrong with me?"

Zhang Lianghu's eyes shot brightly, and he said in his heart: "The main show is on the stage, of course it's your fault! You are so stupid, you still slipped into the trap by yourself, what a pity!"
