In front of Guan Zhong and Wu Zixu sat two middle-aged men wearing official uniforms of the Wei State.

These two people are the top officials of the Wei State, and they are Uncle Gong and Wang Xuan.

Guan Zhong looked at the two of them and asked, "Dare to ask why Wu Qi from your country didn't come?" ”

Generally, the important ministers of the princes followed the princes to attend the emperor's funeral, and Wu Qi made such a contribution to the Wei State, and he should also be able to become an important minister of the Wei State.

After Uncle Acne and Wang Xuan heard Wu Qi's name, their faces showed a trace of unhappiness, they have always been the elite class of Wei State, and they should have always been extremely popular ministers in Wei State.

However, since Wu Qi joined the Wei State, he won the Central Plains War for the Wei State and established the status of the overlord of the Wei State, and Wu Qi's status has also increased.

Originally, the position of Xiangguo of Wei should be held by one of the two of them, but these contributions of Wu Qi basically made the position of Xiangguo of these two people unsafe!

"Wu Qi didn't come with King Wei because he wanted to build a military fortress in the five cities of Hexi!" Uncle Acne said to Guan Zhong.

Guan Zhong wanted to talk to Wu Qi, but Wu Qi was not there, so he could only give up, but he couldn't leave like this, after all, if you left like this, it would be really disrespectful to the two.

Although Guan Zhong doesn't take these two people seriously, these two people are important ministers of Wei after all, and respect is still indispensable.

"Two, I heard that the Wei State has never been established!" Guan Zhong looked at the two of them and asked.

The two nodded, and Uncle Acne said to Guan Zhong: "I, King Wei, have never established a country, and there has been no suitable candidate before King Wei, but now King Wei should have a suitable candidate!" ”

The two knew that they had no hope of winning the position of Xiangguo, after all, in terms of talent and knowledge, they knew that they were not as good as Wu Qi.

"I don't think so, King Wei sees that the two of you are very talented, and it is not good to draw conclusions prematurely, for fear that you will disobey each other, so the position of Xiangguo has been vacant!" Guan Zhong said to the two.

The two of them were stunned when they heard this, and they all looked at Guan Zhong, and the uncle said: "Zhongjun, I'm afraid that the position of Xiangguo has nothing to do with the two of us, and this Wu Qi should become Xiangguo!" ”

"How is this possible?" Guan Zhong was very surprised.

"When Wu Qi first joined the banner of King Wei, the King of Wei gave him the honor of the pillar of the country, and also awarded him Hou, although his candidates and honors are vacant, but it can also be seen that the King of Wei attaches great importance to him, and now he has made great contributions to the King of Wei, and this position of the country belongs to Wu Qi!" Uncle Acne said to Guan Zhong.

Guan Zhong was very surprised, looked at the two of them and said, "Can you King Wei rest assured that such an important position in the Wei State will be handed over to an outsider?" ”

"Outsiders?" Both of them were stunned, looking very puzzled, looking at Guan Zhong, hoping that Guan Zhong could give an answer.

"That's right, Wu Qi is a patriot, not a Wei national!" Guan Zhong said to the two of them.

"When Wei Guo was here, there was nothing wrong with this, but Wei Guo had been integrated into Wei State, and there was no such thing as Wei Guo, this Wu Qi can be said to be a real Wei person!" Uncle Acne said to Guan Zhong.

"But what if his wife is from the Qi country? Wu Qi was born to defend the country, how can he be compared with the real Wei people? And his wife is still from Qi, even if she is from Wei, she can be regarded as half of Wei! Guan Zhong said to the two.

After hearing Guan Zhong's words, the two of them all looked at Guan Zhong one after another, thinking about something in their hearts.

"The State of Qin and the State of Chu were defeated by your State of Wei and signed a treaty of loss of power and humiliation of the country, do you know that my State of Qi was defeated by the State of Wei, and did not sign any treaty of loss of power and humiliation of the country, but just lost some money painlessly, and said that it was a loss of money, but in fact it was to redeem the prisoners! Guan Zhong said to the two.

At this time, this person thought of one thing, that is, Wu Qi's wife is a Qi countryman.

They did not deny Guan Zhong's words, because what Guan Zhong said was reasonable and well-founded, why did Qin and Chu both suffer such a big price after they were defeated by Wei, and Qi just withdrew from Zhao and lost money!

This made them have to feel that this was because Wu Qi's wife was from Qi.

Originally, Wu Qi was half of the Wei country, and his wife was from the Qi country, how could this kind of person become Xiangguo?

"Do you think that Wu Qi, who is not an indigenous Wei countryman, plus his wife is a Qi country, can Wu Qi, who is half a Qi country, be the minister of your Wei country?" Guan Zhong said to the two.

The two of them said in the same voice: "No! ”

"This Wu Qi is not qualified to be the prime minister of your Wei State at all, only you two can be the prime minister of your Wei State, you are both from famous families in Wei State, and you are talented, and you have a peerless talent for governing the country, you two are not the Prime Minister of Wei State, who can be it?" Guan Zhong said to the two.

The two nodded, and when Guan Zhong said this, Uncle Gong and Wang Xuan both felt that there was nothing wrong with what Guan Zhong said, this Wei Xiangguo was not the two of them, who else could it be?

Of course, they have always been thinking about the position of Xiangguo in their hearts, and they don't care about whether Guan Zhong's speculation is right or not.

Originally, the two of them had no way to deal with Wu Qi, and they had always been worried that the position of Xiangguo belonged to Wu Qi, but after listening to Guan Zhong's explanation, they had the heart to compete for Xiangguo again.

"How can a person who is not from the Wei State do things for the Wei State?" Uncle acne said indignantly on the side.

"If the King of Wei wants to establish Wu Qi as the prime minister, I will definitely stop it with death, not that my uncle wants to be the prime minister, but that he must not let a person who cannot do things for the Wei country become the minister of the Wei country!" Uncle Acne said on the side.

And Wang Xuan on the side also said: "That's right, it doesn't matter if the two of us are not Xiangguo, but this Wu Qi must not be, I'm afraid that Wu Qi will not think about my Wei State at that time!" Hurt my Wei country! ”

Guan Zhong nodded: "I believe that King Wei understands this truth, otherwise after the Central Plains War of King Wei, Wu Qi would have been promoted to Xiangguo immediately, right?" ”

And Uncle Gong looked at Guan Zhong: "This Wu Qi became the prime minister of the Wei State, isn't this a good thing for your Qi State?" He's also half a Qi countryman, isn't he? ”

"My Qi country is a country that pays attention to benevolence, righteousness and morality, respects people with good qualities, and Wu Qi is utilitarian and lustful, which is not ashamed of my Qi people, even if he is half of the Qi country, my Qi country can't bear to be such a person as the prime minister!" Guan Zhong said to the two of them on the side.

The two nodded, they didn't care about this, they were very happy in their hearts, because Guan Zhong told them a way to pull Wu Qi off the horse, and gave them a way to get the phase of Wei.

"Well, I have long heard that the country of Qi is a country of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and it really deserves its name!" Uncle Acne said on the side.

This uncle acne can say this, which makes Guan Zhong also very admired, his uncle acne is a person from the Central Plains, and he has always regarded Qi as a barbarian, but now he says that Qi is a country of benevolence, righteousness and morality!
