"Why? Do you still have objections? Qi Xiaobai looked directly at Zou Ji and said.

Zou Ji smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, I am comparable to thousands of troops, and I can do it alone, and the Zou family is just an ordinary person with the name of the scholar clan!" ”

"They follow His Majesty into Qi together, and they can't bring anything to the Qi country, but they have to spend a sum of money to support them!" Zou Ji explained to Qi Xiaobai.

And Qi Xiaobai just smiled when he heard it: "What a good one, one person is comparable to thousands of troops!" ”

"Your Majesty wants me to follow you into Qi, isn't it just that Your Majesty sees the talent of despicable people?" Zou Ji said with a smile.

Qi Xiaobai didn't refute, it is true that Qi Xiaobai felt that this Zou Ji was very human, but to say that he was comparable to thousands of troops, Qi Xiaobai still didn't believe it.

"When you get to the Qi country, I want to see how you are comparable to thousands of troops!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Zou Ji and said.

"The minister will definitely show his majesty's lifelong learning and sacrifice everything for the Qi country!" Zou Ji looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai nodded, and then Zou Ji set up a banquet and served Qi Xiaobai a table of good dishes.

When Qi Xiaobai and Zou Ji were chatting and eating, the secret guard also got the news that Qi Xiaobai was in Zou Tian's attic, and outside Zou Tian's attic at this time, there were people in black clothes and masks covering their faces.

And this man in a black windbreaker and a white mask stood in front of Qi Xiaobai, and then knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty! ”

Qi Xiaobai turned to look at the man: "Zi Mouse, I didn't expect you to come1"

"Since the Battle of Luoyang, the minister has been mobilizing his subordinates to find His Majesty's whereabouts, and the emperor has lived up to his wishes, and the minister has finally seen His Majesty again!" The rat whispered.

From his tone, Qi Xiaobai could feel that Zi Rat was really happy to find him.

"Then let's go back to Yingqiu, I want revenge on the coalition forces!" Qi Xiaobai said with red eyes.

His heart was full of anger at this defeat, and he wanted to wash away his shame and deal a heavy blow to the coalition army.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers are waiting for you, General Tian Heng has gathered an army of 500,000 troops!" Zi Rat looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai was stunned: "500,000 troops? ”

This made Qi Xiaobai really shocked, after the Yanzhou Army was destroyed in the Battle of Luoyang, the core area of Qi should be without soldiers, and it was easy for the enemy army to drive straight into Yingqiu.

This incident made Qi Xiaobai very melancholy, although there was the danger of Mount Tai guarding the camp of Qi for him, but there was just a danger, and it would not work without troops.

Originally, Qi Xiaobai thought about the first thing he did when he returned to Yingqiu, that is, to gather an army, force a strong man, and assemble a new army.

But Qi Xiaobai didn't expect that in his absence, this Tian Heng seemed to have gathered an army of 500,000.

Zi Rat saw Qi Xiaobai's doubts, he looked at Qi Xiaobai and said: "Your Majesty, these 500,000 horses, although they are known as the New Yanzhou Legion, are actually light and strong men recruited from all over the Qi Kingdom, and there are also navies who have joined its legion. ”

After hearing Zi Mouse's words, Qi Xiaobai also understood why the front line had just been defeated, and it took such a short time to assemble a new army here, which was completely forced recruitment.

Moreover, some useless garrisons were also mobilized, among which the Qi navy also came to Mount Tai, preparing to stalemate with the coalition forces in Mount Tai.

"Has the cabinet come up with any countermeasures?" Qi Xiaobai looked at the rat and asked.

"The cabinet is currently meeting every day, and there are no very good countermeasures, but Lord Zhang Tianshang and Liu Ruo's mother are ready to stalemate with them in Mount Tai, relying on the Xuzhou Army and Qi Jiao Gongzi to break through and disintegrate the coalition army!" Zi Rat looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai nodded, and then Qi Xiaobai asked, "What about Wei Dexian?" ”

Wei Dexian actually followed Qi Xiaobai to participate in the Battle of Luoyang, but he was in the dark, Qi Xiaobai was in the Ming, Qi Xiaobai wanted to use Wei Dexian to disintegrate his forces, but the Battle of Luoyang was defeated in the first battle, and Wei Dexian did not appear.

"Your Majesty, Gonggong Wei learned that Your Majesty was deeply involved in the Battle of Luoyang, and after his life and death were unknown, he led a small team to assassinate Emperor Shengdi Zhou, and after defeat, he was seriously injured, but fortunately he escaped!" Zi Rat looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

"Seriously injured? Let the best doctors treat him, and tell those doctors that if Wei Dexian dies, they don't have to live! Qi Xiaobai said to the rat.

"No!" The rat whispered.

For Zi Rat, Wei Dexian is actually his father, the top of the secret guard, basically all are orphans, Zi Rat's age is not very old, when Wei Dexian founded the secret guard, he single-handedly recruited Zi Mouse to his door.

Teach him martial arts, teach him culture, and treat him like a child, and Wei Dexian does treat Zirat as a son, after all, Wei Dexian can't have a queen.

Wei Dexian actually planned to let Zi Rat take his surname in his heart, but he didn't expect that after the Battle of Luoyang, such a big event would happen.

If it weren't for the secret guards' desperate protection of Wei Dexian, perhaps Wei Dexian would have been captured by the Luoyang royal family in this assassination, or he would have been killed in failure.

"What about Tian Ji? What does Tian Ji do in the cabinet? Qi Xiaobai looked at the rat and asked again.

Zou Ji told him that Tian Ji could save Qi Guo, so Qi Xiaobai wanted to ask Tian Ji what he was doing and whether he had any wonderful plans.

"Tian Ji? He said that he was sick, and since His Majesty went on the expedition, he had not been to the court for a long time, and according to the minister's information, Lord Tian Ji has been fighting cocks! Zi Rat looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai sighed: "I regret not listening to Tian Ji's words, otherwise how could there be a big defeat in the Battle of Luoyang?" ”

At this time, Qi Xiaobai's mind came up with the matter of Tian Ji coming out to dissuade him, thinking that Zou Ji asked him to find Tian Ji, Qi Xiaobai felt that if he had listened to Tian Ji's words, maybe Qi Guo would not have been defeated so easily.

"I'll visit Tian Ji in person!" Qi Xiaobai said to the mouse.

"Your Majesty, if you want to see Tian Ji, you can just recruit him directly into the palace, how can you set up your identity to meet him as a courtier?" The rat said indignantly.

"Tian Ji has this qualification, because the current situation in Qi Country may only be changed by Tian Ji!" Qi Xiaobai looked at the rat and said.

"What's more, when Tian Ji stood up to stop me, I didn't listen, it was my fault, if I made a mistake, I have to admit my mistake, even if I am the monarch and I made a mistake, then I have to admit it!" Qi Xiaobai said to the mouse.

And Zou Ji, who was silent on the side, looked at Qi Xiaobai, and he had a deep impression of Qi Xiaobai.

Before seeing Qi Xiaobai, Zou Ji was a monarch who got too much merit and slowly became arrogant from what Qi Xiaobai had done.

But after hearing Qi Xiaobai's conversation with Zi Mouse just now, he denied his simple opinion.
