Chapter 42 42.The Loyal Man

King Chu Huai looked at the dancing girl: "How about marrying Zhongjun?" Zhong Jun is in Qi State, but he is the Minister of Qi! The Duke of Qi worships Zhongjun as his father! ”

The dancer was startled when she heard King Chu Huai's words, and then looked at Guan Zhong, with a hint of pleading in her eyes, the dancer was not yet twenty, but Guan Zhong had reached the age of not being confused.

However, Guan Zhong served as the minister of Qi State, and the Duke of Qi also had to shout his father, and the dancer was just an ordinary dancer, with some appearances, according to ordinary people, a dancer could marry someone like Guan Zhong, which was a blessing from cultivation.

King Chu Huai made this request, in fact, he intended to win over Guan Zhong, in fact, he had the idea of forming an alliance in his heart.

"Huai Wang gave marriage, then it would be hypocritical for me to shirk Zhong, my fair lady, good gentleman, although I Guan Zhong is not a gentleman, but I am also good to a lady!" Guan Zhong said to King Chu Huai.

The dancer hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I have been engaged to someone, and it is against human ethics to marry someone else......"

After King Chu Huai heard this, he felt a little embarrassed, and was rejected by a dancing girl, King Chu Huai was a very good-looking person, and he was a little angry about the rejection of a dancing girl.

And a dancer next to the dancer said, "Xiaoqing, don't you want to live?" Refuse in public the marriage of the king to you......"

"I have been engaged to Yang Gongzi for life, this marriage to Guan Zhong, isn't it a loss to Yang Gongzi?" The dancer said to the sister next to her.

Looking at this embarrassing scene, Guan Zhong coughed twice: "Since this girl is engaged to someone, if I want to marry this girl, wouldn't it be a knife to snatch love and make this girl hate me for the rest of my life?" ”

Looking at this cold scene, Guan Zhong rejected the marriage, and the dancer looked at Guan Zhong: "Thank you, Zhongjun!" ”

Zhong Jun only nodded slightly, he knew that if the dancing girl in front of him was lucky, she would lose her position in the palace, and if she was unlucky, she would have to be killed if she left here.

King Chu Huai looked at Guan Zhong, and then at the dancing girl: "It seems that you have no relationship with Zhong Jun, it's a pity, it's a pity, the widow still wants to say a matchmaker for the two of you!" ”

King Chu Huai's face gradually improved, and King Chu Huai was a little unhappy in his heart for this woman who slapped him in the face.

But he, a king, how can he deal with a little dancing girl in person?

"Stand down!" King Chu Huai said to the dancing girl.

The dancer nodded and hurriedly left, while Guan Zhong shook her head: "It seems that it is more auspicious!" ”

In front of foreign envoys, he slapped his own monarch in the face, which was quite embarrassing, and King Chu Huai didn't show it now, but he wrote it down in his heart.

Seven days later, in Qiu City, the state camp of Qi.

Xie Fu, the envoy of the Yue Kingdom, came to the outside of the Qi Palace in Yingqiu City, and he quietly waited for the summons of Qi Xiaobai, the Duke of Qi Huan.

He is here to cross the country, and in his heart, he must not have a war with the Qi country, otherwise it will make the Yue country perish.

For this reason, he came from Huiji, the capital of Yue, to Yingqiu, the capital of Qi, as quickly as possible.

Before the morning meal was eaten, he came to the outside of the Qi Palace early and waited......

Xie Fu's attendant looked at Xie Fu: "My lord, why are you suffering?" ”

"The group of people in the main battle faction all say that I am a traitor, but I don't know that my heart loves Yueguo, if I can sacrifice my life in exchange for a hundred years of prosperity in Yueguo, I will be duty-bound!" Xie Fu said to his attendant.

"My lord is worthy of being the first assistant of my Yue country!" The attendant admired.

"But the world doesn't understand me...... I feel like I'm a traitor! Xie Fu sighed, as the secretary of the Yue country, the first assistant, has always wanted to make peace with the outside world, hoping that the country can stop expanding and start peaceful development, he believes that only a rich country can strengthen the people, and only a strong people can make the country prosperous!

But because of his main peace, conservative, so that the people of the main war faction once insulted him as a traitor in the court, Xie Fu felt that this is the world does not understand him, the Yue country has been fighting all the year round, working the people and losing money, although the expansion of a time, can bring a certain amount of resources to the Yue country, but Xie Fu Jue's has been expanding like this, not developing the territorial resources of these places occupied by the Yue country, for a long time, the Yue country has been on the road of aggression, the war is won and lost, he feels that the Yue country goes on like this, there will always be a day of failure.

The Yue State has been expanding externally, plundering the resources of the expanded territory, and has not developed its resources, which makes the people in the land occupied by the Yue State miserable, and has not let the people of the occupied land assimilate.

However, in front of the powerful army of the Yue State, although these people were angry, they did not dare to resist and let the Yue State exploit them.

Xie Fu saw this clearly, and he felt that the day when the Yue Kingdom failed, these people would rise up, and at that time, the huge vassal state of the Yue Kingdom would collapse instantly.

At best, you can return to the place where you started before, and at worst, you can lose your country......

Although Xie Fu saw this clearly, those main battle factions in Yue did not see it clearly, they only thought about their military exploits, promotion, opening up territory and expanding territory for Yue State, and leaving their names in history......

Qi Xiaobai was in the court at this time.

A guard walked into the court: "Gong, there is a special envoy of the Yue Kingdom asking to see outside!" ”

Qi Xiaobai nodded: "The envoy of the Yue Kingdom? What do you think this man has come for? ”

"The envoy of the Yue State is here for peace talks, our Qi State is now pressing the border, and the Chu State is arranging a heavy army on the border, this Yue State has felt the pressure and hopes to negotiate peace with my Qi State!" Zhang Tianshang stood up and said to Qi Xiaobai.

"Hmph, when my Qi country was the weakest, I attacked us and wanted to kill my Qi country, but now it's time for the Yue country to be in danger, and I want to negotiate peace with my Qi country, is there such a good thing in this world?" Qi Xiaobai snorted coldly.

Guan Zhong went to the state of Chu to lobby the king of Chu, as long as Qi and Chu formed an alliance, the state of Yue would collapse in an instant......

"Do you think I am seeing? Or is it missing? Qi Xiaobai looked at these courtiers and asked.

"Your Majesty, let's see it, see what tricks this Yue Kingdom is going to play, and probe the details!" Zhang Tianshang said to Qi Xiaobai.

Qi Xiaobai nodded: "That's good, just follow what Zhang Shangqing said!" ”

Then the guard walked out and came to Xie Fu: "The Qi Palace has allowed you to meet him!" ”

Xie Fu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, he was really afraid that Qi Huan Gong would not see him, so what kind of face would he have to return to Yue Kingdom? What kind of face do you have to go to see Yue Huigong?

"Thank you, little brother!" Xie Fu took out a tael of silver and handed it to the guard, who accepted it and said, "Thank you, envoy!" ”

Xie Fu looked at the attendant and said, "You can wait for me here!" ”

Xie Fu walked into the Qi Palace alone: "May God bless me to cross the country!" ”

And the attendant looked at Xie Fu's back, felt that Xie Fu was a lot older, and couldn't help but sigh: "O loyal man! ”
