741. Not the work of one person
I have a bosom friend like Mr. Tian, which is really my blessing! Qi Xiaobai said with a laugh.
Then Qi Xiaobai began to negotiate an alliance with South Korea with his ministers, and for Qi, Korea's alliance only needed to be announced to the world.
As long as the Qi State forms an alliance with Korea, then the Qin State will inevitably feel the danger and will definitely use troops against South Korea frequently, and if this is achieved, the goal of the Qi State has been achieved.
As far as Shen Buxian is concerned, what he wants is to form an alliance with Qi to deter the Qin State in the West, and at the same time to reconcile with Zhao, Wei, and Chu, so that although Korea is in the land of four wars, there will be no war.
Both sides have their own ghosts, but who can achieve the goal in their hearts depends on which of them has more clever means.
Shen Buxian replied to his envoy, and his retainers looked at Shen Buxian and said: "Master, we have no connection with Your Majesty like this, and we directly form an alliance with Qi State in the name of South Korea, Your Majesty will say that we have exceeded our authority!" ”
"I am here for the great cause of Korea, we don't have time to discuss with Your Majesty, this is an opportunity, as long as we form an alliance with Qi State, then we can rely on Qi State and use troops against Qin State, so as to defeat Qin State, so that I can really rise in Korea and dominate one side, so that I can fight against Qi State without looking at others!" Shen Buxian said to his retainers.
"Master, since you changed the law, it is a big crime to overstep your authority, sir, this time you are the monarch of the Yue Kingdom, if Your Majesty investigates it, it will be a capital crime!" The retainer looked at Shen Buxian and said.
And Shen said disapprerovingly: "Shang Jun's change of law is the rule of law, and there is no humanity to speak of, and the rule of art I pay attention to is to govern the law with people, in order to have a trace of human affection in the law!" ”
"After all, people can be flexible, but the law doesn't change!" Shen Buxian looked at his retainers and said.
"But the master's rule of art is to rule by man under the structure of the law, not that people can cross the law, I am afraid that the new monarch will do something to the master!"
"Successive new monarchs succeed to the throne, they will use knives against the courtiers of the previous generation, the old man is the first minister next to King Han Lie, this new monarch wants to open the knife, he will inevitably open the knife to the master!" The retainer looked at Shen Buxian and said.
And Shen Buxian said calmly: "Han Hu is supported by me, I am a loyal minister to King Han Lie, and for him Han Hu, I am still a loyal minister!" ”
After hearing Shen Buxian's words, the retainer didn't say anything, after all, this was a matter decided by Shen Buxian, and he could only remind Shen Buxian and propose, but he couldn't influence Shen Buxian's decision.
The next day, in the Qi Palace.
Shen Buxian looked at the agreement in his hand, this is completely an equal agreement, Qi and South Korea stop the war, and form an alliance together, if South Korea suffers a military attack, Qi will send troops to help, in the same way, if Qi meets a military attack, South Korea must also fulfill its responsibilities as an ally.
At the same time, for the matter of destroying Qi, South Korea suffered a lot of military damage to Qi State, and compensated Qi State with 30 million silver and 10,000 catties of grain and grass.
For this request, Qi Xiaobai thought that he didn't want much, after all, the five countries attacked Qi, which brought great harm to Qi, and at the same time, Qi's Yanzhou legion also experienced a devastating blow.
And now as long as 30 million white silver, and 10,000 catties of grain and grass, this is quite a reasonable compensation, after all, Qi and South Korea have a truce, and at the same time, Qi and South Korea have signed an alliance.
Shen Buxian signed this covenant on behalf of Han Wuwang Han Hu, and then Qi Xiaobai and Shen Buxian went to visit Yingqiu City together.
Qi Xiaobai looked at Shen Buxian and said, "How about looking at Yingqiu City?" ”
"The prosperity of Yingqiu City can be described as the largest city in Kyushu, and there is no city that can compare with the prosperity of Shangyingqiu City!" Shen Buxian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
Qi Xiaobai laughed, and said without modesty: "The world thinks that Luoyang is the first city of the empire, but in fact, my Yingqiu is the first city of the empire, and there are merchants from various countries stationed in my Yingqiu, not only in the Kyushu mainland, but also overseas, and Yingqiu City is located in the mountains, and the defense is still very good!" ”
"In the past few decades, only Wang Hengbing has been in Yingqiu City once, and it can be described as a very safe place!" Qi Xiaobai said lightly.
The construction of Yingqiu City can be said to be very good, after Luoyang City was broken by Qi State, although Qi Xiaobai did not destroy Luoyang City, but the people who lived in Luoyang City chose to move, and the target of this migration was Yingqiu and Song City.
Yingqiu is the first choice, Yingqiu is the capital of Qi State, and at the same time, the empire deviates from the extreme east, and the countries are very far away from Yingqiu.
Moreover, Luoyang City has now been built into a military fortress by the Qi State, and it is a military garrison for the Qi State to expand to the west, how can this kind of place become a safe place in the past?
Therefore, the people from other places here, or the big businessmen, choose to go to the safer camp mound.
Therefore, the merchants of Luoyang City arrived at Yingqiu, which also contributed to the prosperity of Yingqiu, and most of the merchants of Songcheng also chose to move to Yingqiu, of course, Songcheng is still a commercial city, and after Qi got Songcheng, it is still trying its best to rebuild Songcheng.
But Song City has lost its previous neutral aura, and although the Qi State is trying its best to build it, the population cannot be restored to its former appearance.
However, Yingqiu, the capital of Qi, has developed because of this, of course, it can be developed, and there is also the inclusiveness of Qi, which is a national capital that is both inclusive.
Compared with the Qin State in the West, it is a hundred times stronger, and even the multicultural Chu State cannot compare with the inclusiveness of the Shang Qi State.
Qi chose its own unique reform for Qi Xiaobai, biased towards Taoism Huang Lao, ruled by inaction, and externally, and after conquering other countries, Qi also chose the Confucian royal road, with the power of the king, to make people submit, so that it can be integrated into the capital of Qi.
Qi Xiaobai knew that by force alone, even if he conquered the countries, it would only be a glimmer of glory, and after a hundred years, it would return to the original state.
Therefore, Qi Xiaobai refused to become a cultivated national capital like Qin and vigorously developed armaments, although Qi was also developing armaments, but elsewhere, Qi was also developing.
Although the state of Qi borrowed from the rule of law of the Qin state and was based on the law, Qi Xiaobai chose the cabinet and strengthened the power of some nobles and nobles.
Of course, for the useless nobles Qi State is annexed, and for the harmful nobles, Qi Xiaobai is surrendered by force.
Although there are many nobles in Qi, there are not many nobles with their own territories, which is mainly due to Qi Xiaobai's reform.
Qi Xiaobai can give privileges to the nobles, but the soldiers do not allow them to have private soldiers, they only have the power to participate in the cabinet, but they definitely do not have the power to be the king independently.
"The prosperity of Yingqiu is not the work of my Qi Xiaobai alone, but the credit of the entire Qi people!" Qi Xiaobai said lightly.
